My Life
she takes it deep to her heart right from the start she talks softly over a glass of whine
now and again she is more than a friend but don't you just throw me a line
say now it would be great if she'd dedicate just a minute from her precious time
said i'll give it a while but thats not my style now how is that a crime
everyone says that i'm wild pardon my french but i still know my child and that wasn't it i told her i needed some time from her daddy-o
i began walking while she was still talkin lookin for an exit sign
pardon my face but i am leaving no trace cause i really haven't got the time
well i began thinking and my heart is just sinking looking for a place to go
well isn't it bad how she'll treats you so bad and u never really let her know
well everyone says that shes cryin but i can't forget all the tiem i spent tryin and that wasn't it i told her i needed some time from her daddy-o
and i know i know what it feels like to be alone i say now i know i know what it feels like to be at home
i say i like i like stoping to say hello said its my life my life my life why can't we take this slow, why can't we take this slow
why can't we take this slow
now i been thro the phases and i walked thro the mazes i'm sick and just a little tired
i'm sure it isn't fair but i'm not aware of the patience thats required
if i could have kissed her everytime that i misses her i wouldn't be out the door
but now and again i sure need a friend now isn't that what shes for
everyone says that i'm lyin but i can't forget all the times she was cryin and that wasn't it i told her i need some time from her daddy-o
and i know i know what it feels like to be alone i say now i know i know what it feels like to be at home
i say i like i like stoping to say hello said its my life my life my life why can't we take this slow, why can't we take this slow
baby take this slow its my life my life why can't we take this slow
Short A Try
i'm picking up these broken pieces again i'm feeling like i'm lost and all i do is find you there we've been here before i'm never coming back again, not again tomorrow is too soon for you my dear i pushed you oh so far away when all i do is want you near well i've been here before not coming back again and i can't sleep because pretenders never sleep with a smile it's hard enough to wake up after awhile and even though i say i'm feeling fine i'm locked up, loaded down, short a try
have i told you lately that i love you have i told you that i hold nothing there above you we've been around here before we're never coming back again, not again i love the way you walk the way that you talk the way you live the way that you give me everything you promised you would if i could, i'd be here i can't well i can't sleep
because pretenders never sleep with a smile it's hard enough to wake up after awhile and even though i say i'm feeling fine i'm locked up, loaded down, short a try
i wish to god that i been there for you my dear there's so much pushing me all around, i'd love to hold you near and i don't expect you to stay and i'm never gonna ask you why because i'm locked up, loaded down, short a try i'm locked up, loaded down and i'm short a try
Favorite Book Of Poetry
called her last night and i read her a line from my favorite book of poetry and i, i started to cry she asked me what was wrong don't worry, it's not you, it's me i never knew half the stories told to me stories like the sun is blue and i, i never knew half the time i spent with her i wish to god i spent it all with you she called me last night she read me a line from her favorite book of poetry and i, she started to cry i said what's wrong with you she said don't worry, it's not you, it's me well it's plain to see every time you look at me you wish to god it was her with you well i never knew all the time you look at me i wish to god i gave her away from you see my baby now all the poetry is written about you somehow and every time i read the little line of poetry i just think about just you and me
she called me last night and we talked for what seemed like the very first time and we, we began to see life is too short to run away from everything, she reads i don't know what you've done to me i don't care anymore, can't you see i just want love, just want love it's not hard, just let me know because every time i read a line from the book i realize the poetry, that poetry was written bout you and me all this poetry is written bout just you and me
Earthward
love was never enough throughout time, yet some give it up well, you kept me standing alone if only i could have one dance i would move on my own in tattered daydreams that slip through the night i'm prince, king, warrior, and i'm doing things right but every daydream leaves me awake all the night if i was a bird, spread my wings, and take off and fly yeah yeah yeah yeah i had the swirl and ache from sprays of honeysuckle that when they're gathered break will dew on the knuckle i had small sweets but those seemed small when i was young the petal of the rose was strung yeah, na-na na-na
so in this dream i walk with my head held high cause here i'll live forever and never die i see my soul straight ahead with his eyes locked on mine if i should wake right now, i'd rather be blind and in these dreams with love, together we'd stand i'm slipping, falling to earthward and i can't reach your hand yeah yeah yeah yeah
i had the swirl and ache from sprays of honeysuckle that when they're gathered break will dew on the knuckle i had small sweets but those seemed small when i was young the petal of the rose was strung yeah, na-na na-na
my eyes open wide and i've lost myself i'm laying here in my bed, there's nobody else surrounded by questions, hate, and blood soaked war i clasp my hands together and pray, ask what it's all for
it's easy for me to slip away and live on the air if we'd all just let love live we could all meet there but time has its way of saying it's time to move on so off to my kingdom i go where i feel at home yeah yeah yeah yeah
i had the swirl and ache from sprays of honeysuckle that when they're gathered break will dew on the knuckle i had small sweets but those seemed small when i was young the petal of the rose was strung yeah yeah yeah
