My body aches in memory of the night's embrace running dreams and a fractured picture of your face as I saw you thought 'this is the right time and place' some would say fate or a tribute to the many other wasted days The nights are made for your sideways glances for the love you breathe and a million chances held your hand in search for answers strained, wired, so very tired and I am reminded of your smile, by the light i'm blinded

Night Song
I thought distance had humor that it partners with life quietly snickering hand in hand modelling mischief But there is no game, really the naked truth being that I am here and you are not that the only thing that would go better hand in hand is us and the only naked truth being our bodies

I can't form the right words for you now or ever so I'll kiss you instead and hope that you understand

Yearning for love longing again maybe just need another friend He is the one straight after the other don't think we belong to one another Forced it once said "never again" but here I am backwards in bend I'm yearning for love longing for a lover I think you are too why the **** do we bother?

Longing Again
The tides are fleeting half an hour of pristine high waters then stripped away leaving debris of the oceans secrets ashore Unlike home, where the tides go in and out yet the notion of swimming stays intact Perhaps the moon wants us to appreciate more here If the ocean was this inviting all day long we wouldn't revel in its beauty Swimming in the high tide here is like being on the moon this calm state of being is so foreign to me and I dance like a child in the soft of the Earth like a dolphin after its feed like a falling feather from a high flying bird I've never been to the moon, but I imagine it like this drifting, floating and fading away to this music I've never been to the moon, but I imagine it like this and I never want to be anywhere else
