Children's Rhyme
I get worried I'll fail you every day you succeed you're too good and I'm selfish I don't know what to do have I held myself back or is it easy to rest I can't tell if I'm present So I'm worried I'll fail you Worried I'll fail you with a kiss or a touch with words or a look do I give you enough Am I here Is this love why can't I tell the difference Between worry and absence between passion and desperation Is this normal I can't tell if I'm treating you right You deserve to be happy You deserve a fair fight I'm confused and I'm scared That I've made a mistake For your sake I am hoping its only cold feet I had this idea a long time ago of my future and a man who was different one that I didn't know I was separate apart from this town and these faces No memories just me and a new life so where do we fit when its you and its me when time takes us both Where will I end up Where will you be Was this a mistake poor timing? convenience? I don't want it to be but it feels like I'm losing and writing this feels like a surrender a sabotage because this is good we are good why am i worried im so scared but I'm happy I have doubts but I'm laughing When we are together when we are apart theres a difference am i shallow am i selfish am i stuck up conceded I'm confused I'm scared I'm guilty but this time It has to be you.

When I went to New York I felt something change Though the feeling was foreign It wasn't so strange When I stepped on the ground And picked up my feet I felt I was meant for Those rough city streets When I was with you I felt something less We used to be natural Before we confessed But now I have found That we too have changed We used to be natural Before we were strange

Natural
The wind blew cold Our hearts were warm Past buildings old We found our form And through the streets We found a pace moving our feet in that foreign place We were not told We'd grow to seek The wind blown cold Across a cheek But even so Things aren't the same We did not leave Quite as we came

New York City
We took our turn and tried our best To find success in a classic game But with our love put to the test Found lions much too tough to tame Young love blooms before two fresh eyes Which saw their colors brightest in May But when that flower wilts to die Best pull its roots than let it stay Two stars in the sky made to grant Two wishes one yours the other mine And you may wish for what I can't But changes not the ended line We tried our best and that is true But do not forget that love can end For with good time I Firmly knew This was not love I wished to mend

What's Done is Done
Maybe you are Maybe I am I'd hate to think otherwise Not sure I can Strange to consider Worse to dismiss Let's not think on it now Static in bliss

I am happy I am glad That I read what I had overlooked I am excited I am ecstatic Now that I know the truth I am impatient I am waiting To hear all you have to say I am happy I am glad Even more so every day

Sunday will come Just a few days from now An eternity to wait To say what is long overdue Sunday will come And we will confess ourselves Fear will hold us Hope will push us closer And on Sunday When we both shake in emotion My hand in yours We will find a way to work through

Sunday
Do you want me to bare my soul to you? I can do that if you want me to Shall I tell you everything I feel? I can do that too Do I reveal myself and my deepest affections? Do I sing the songs I wrote for you? If these are the things that I must do Just tell me to

To Do List
Our honesty is incomplete though strong in it's own landing We never lie but words unsaid Leave partial understanding It makes good sense to hide the truth An open door is dangerous A criminal Could come and break The trust that long has bound us
