Silhouettes

Here we are

Where we are

My head is stuffy

It feels like I'm still asleep

Two days ago I woke up

And fell asleep again

Caught up in a haze

I couldn't keep my eyes open

I fell back

Today the clouds

They set in

And the fairness

It just ain't as fair

Under the heavy shadows

Life plays a different hue

And I don't see you

I didn't see you

No brilliant colors

No light of day

Wrapped in gray

Just crowded numbers

Lines and graphs

A non-stop to and fro

Yes and no

Maybes and I'll-think-about-thats

Homebound

It's all the same

Another day

Just the same

The cars speed by

Fast and slow

To and fro

Still in a haze

Caught in a maze

Lost in our days

Still unsure

Unknown

Unrealized

When will I wake up?

I feel my body but my mind is asleep

I can feel my breathing but my heart is weak

I see you all but there is nothing

There is nothing here

Wake me up

Grape tree

We meet again

How can it be

Emotional atrophy

I don't mean to be mean

I just don't know what to say

Head bowed I silently walk away

I know I'm better than this

Have made a hundred and one cry

I should have stayed to talk some more

But I was the one who said goodbye

Deep down I know it's wrong

Perhaps I am only in denial

To him your heart belongs

This is all a wasteful trial

But I get lost in you over and over again

Disarmed by that face

Broken down, without defenses

And that smile

Such bitterness, such delight

The only one of it's kind

Your eyes talk

They pour into my soul

If we could see eye to eye

My heart would explode

Your grace and demeanor

Your sarcasm and wit

A million conversations waiting

A lifetime of exploring

A year or so too late

Perhaps a bit too late

Grateful

In the stillness I sit

A calm in my heart

I am grateful

In this place

At this time

There is nothing else I would ask

Greatness it seems is quite a distance away

But it is within sight

My faith is strong

My strength eternal

I have no fear

Everything for a greater purpose

Everything I am is light

Let the light shine for the world to see

Live through me

Simple Joys

I think about you a hundred times a day

I pray to God to look after you

You are every second of every hour

You are everything I do

You are the sunshine in the morning

The soothing calm in the night

Though life can throw bricks and spite

Just the thought of you makes everything all right

I will tell you everyday

How beautiful you are

And I will make you feel my love

No matter how near or far

My life has forever changed

Since the day we first met

If you would just stay beside me

My life would be set

You are joy in my world

You are everything I desire

I will always look after you

I promise I will never tire

I pray this would last forever

I pray you will always see

You and I are meant to be

You are everything to me

Day & night

Make no mistake

You don't see me

But I'm always with you

In my thoughts

In all these songs

Always a prayer sent

With each new day

There's a reason

A smile I can't escape

Joy out of its bounds

All because of you

We don't need lines

No grand gestures

No walks under the moonlight

Just you and me

And you being you

As it has always been

You are all I see

But now I finally see you

For all that you really are

And you are so beautiful

No idea

I'm sorry dear if I can't tell you

The whispers of my soul

But they open floodgates

To feelings that I can not control

I'm sorry if I leave you

Wondering without a clue

But babe know for certain

These words are all for you

I'm sorry if I keep some secrets

Details I seem to miss

But darling when it falls together

A perfect night, a perfect kiss

So I'm sorry, please forgive me

One day I swear you'll see

That all of this was simply leading

To what was always meant to be

Never too late

Running in the rain

Your hand in mine

Caught such beautiful madness

Caught between the lines

Though fate can take us down

It doesn't matter you see

The disappointment dissipates

As long as you're with me

A vision in the passenger seat

The trees they gently sway

Tears fall, pool, and cloud

But we sweep them all away

And here you are finally

It's just me and you

Could this be the beginning

Please say that this is true

You don't need to recover

I know it may seem tough

But this is all that matters

Let the moment be enough

We'll see it all together

With a soundtrack built for two

In my arms I promise

I will look after you
