close behind you

I lie awake at night it goes on far too long
Somehow I’ve allowed things to go terribly wrong
Sometimes I lie there and wonder where I belong
I know your words by heart and I sing them like a song

You pull me close and tell me settle down
Everything goes quiet your voice barely makes a sound
My heart goes heavy and the tears they pour down
You take my hand and lead my feet to the ground

I follow close behind you
I’ll let you lead the way
If I stay close behind you
I’ll never lose my way
At times it’s hard to see you
But I know you’re always there
Cause to do this all alone
would be so unfair

I lie awake at night it goes on far too long
Sometimes I pray for tomorrow to bring a pleasant song
The air is cool now my feet are cold on the lawn
But I’m right behind you so nothing can go wrong

I know you’ll never leave me but there are times I feel alone
I’m out here lost and lonely wandering on my own
But you’ll always be there I’ll never be alone
You’ll always be there you’ll guide me back home

I follow close behind you
I’ll let you lead the way
If I stay close behind you
I’ll never lose my way
At times it’s hard to see you
but I know you’re always there
cause to do this all alone
would be so unfair

i keep falling for you

You called, I didn’t answer.  I wasn’t ready for conversation.  So I let the phone ring.
Then I passed you on the street.  You didn’t see me, or maybe you chose to look away.
It was an accidental crossing with a familar stranger and I foolishly fell right back in love.

take me for a ride

I fall into your deep brown eyes
Reach and take my hand
Come and lead me
Be my guide
Come and take me for a ride

Take me deep
But take it slow
Lead with your hands
I’m gonna follow
Where they go

Sensations on fire
A burning need
Your taste is salty
But oh, so sweet

Your eyes are gentle
Your hands, a little rough
You trace every inch of me
And I feel every touch

There’s an overwhelming passion
Of desire and lust
I move underneath
And you rise above

The intensity builds
The pressure explodes
There’s a final release
And our bodies let go

I ache with exhaustion
You pull me to your side
we’ll sleep for a while
Then I’ll take you for a ride

another mistake

I wake up alone and I look for your face
I shower alone and I long for your taste
I walk alone and I reach for your hand
Without you beside me I’m lost in this land


I don’t sleep at night, now that you’re gone
I don’t make coffee, I don’t like drinking alone
I don’t sing, because singing’s no fun
A duets for two, and without you I’m one


Thought, I don’t need you
I could leave you behind.
Thought, what am I doing, wasting my time?
Thought I was better without you around
But, learned without you, my world’s falling down

I’m loosing my mind
Cause I pushed you away
Why did you leave me
Why didn’t you stay…
