I would stay here
If you would lay here
Next to me
That would be ecstasy

Let me daydream
Keep the theme but stay away from complacency
Complacency...
That’s all I need

So, would you stay or would you go
Would you stay or would you go
Cause baby come night time
I will be by your side
Are you on your way  

Am I expecting too much for you to change
I’m feeling rearranged
Taking a step forward
To help to ease the pain
It’s a dangerous game we play

So, would you stay or would you go
Would you stay or would you go
Cause baby come night time
I’ll still be by your side
Are you on your way

I’m wide awake
Waiting for however long it takes
For you to come and stay,
Stay with me, It’ll be okay

Let me daydream
Keep the theme, but stay away from complacency, complacency
I just want you here next to me...
That’s all I’ll ever need

It’s still a work in progress
Even on a cloudy day
In drenched clothes caught out in the rain
My entire life in disarray
But you’re still perfect in every way.
Maybe we’re not on the same page
In your eyes, I see the rage
That festers in your heart and brain
Let us overcome the war we wage

Tears are wet, our bodies dry
How did our lives get so intertwined
Aging better than expensive wine
Let’s reminisce of a forgotten time

Some might say I’m walking blind
Into the darkness of the night
You’re the sunshine in my eyes
And the stars above perfectly aligned
The scent of you is so divine
It reminds me that you’re Gods design
There’s certainly no good reason why
Our two hearts should not combine  
No mountains top that we can’t climb
Hold my hand and let’s take flight
Just don’t make me weak with Kryptonite.
I want to go home, to where the buffalo roam
Where the sky collides with the sea
I want to climb over mountains
Swim in the streams
And sing as I swing through the trees
I want to wake under heaven
Feel autumns breeze
Sit by the fire
Telling scary stories
I want to hike through the forest
Feel vibrant and free
Fly like an eagle, buzz like the bees
Theres no time to lose
Only board meetings to leave
Just alone with my thoughts
In good company
To be at one with nature
Amidst the foliage and leaves
Scour the land
Come and go as I please
No strings attached
Seek out inner peace
Just as I envisioned
Just like in my dreams
No more deadlines to make
No boss to appease
Instead, explore nature
See what’s to see
And remember to smile
Last, but not least.
Free yourself and the rest will follow
Fired it, desired it,
Put you in your place
Riot, don’t fight it,
A punch to the face
Movement, you blew it,
Your mind in outer space
Write it, defy it,
Rattled in cage
Flaunt it, report it,
On the front page
Deny it, provide it,
With minimum wage
Correct it, deflect it,
An outpour of rage
Plan it, contain it,
My life’s rearranged
Confront it, restore it,
The best way to gage
Mask it, enhance it,
Act out on stage
Collect it, pretend it,
Coming of age
Own it, disown it,
Become disengaged
Force it, explore it,
In need of some change.
Mend it, ignore it,
That’s not how I was raised
What loving proof, is deemed unfair
If you danced away like Fred Astaire
No timing, rhyming, or cold stare
Can equally compare

The anguish if I lost you; dear
From the once conqueror of fears
Holding on to memories, Then ****, it disappears

We could reminisce when we grew old
To way back in the day
Together, holding hands
From Brooklyn to the Bay

The cost is just a fraction
Of the amount that I would pay
To reach our love’s conclusion
If only for a day

You always tried to encourage me
When my head was in the clouds
And if our love became complacent
There was laughter to be found

You always kept me guessing
With your flare for life itself
I thought about confessing
The hand that I was dealt

It’s impossible to recreate
The pictures frame by frame
No time to rush, no time to waste
Our love could never fade

We set it free into the universe
With a message soft and pure
It traveled on an unknown course
But it was too hard to ignore

It’s mission to connect the dots
Of love and hates demise
It would appear you put me on the spot
Through a lame disguise

The gift of love in ones grasp
Will surely slip away
Don’t focus on the  memories of past
When there’s still some time today

A way to compensate your fears
A way to feel redeemed
To spend the duration of my life
With the woman of my dreams
In the thunder, in the rain
I can’t explain what you do to me.  
In the snow, I love you so
You don’t know what you do to me
In the sky, way up high
You’re the one that’ll set me free
In my home, all alone
Working on a masterpiece
Fair or fowl, out on the prowl
Headed towards my destiny
I’ll get there, just wait and see
I won’t back down to anything
I love you more than you’ll ever know
From zero till infinity
If I fail, or I succeed
You are all I’ll ever need
If I crumble, if I feel weak
I’ll get down on my hands and knees
Pray to God to deliver me
Dry your eyes and just believe
We’ll make it through collectively
In your eyes, I feel relief
You’re the girl of my dreams
Should I stay awake, l cannot sleep
It’s not as bad as you may think
I speak the truth, in all honesty
Too much power, too much greed
Could lead to insanity
Have no fear, don’t disappear
You’re my pride, my darling dear.
Just a moment of silence please
No point in looking back
Prayers for all our fallen men
For their-heroic acts

Dreams were lost in battle
Fathers, brothers, sons
How are we to carry on
With no more smoking guns?

There’s simplicity in chaos
Our bodies still feel numb
Underneath the battle scars
Are layers tightly spun

What act of valor did our soldiers learn?
Watching men die never to return
Life goes on, until it burns
Wasting time, no great concern.

They’re still fighting far from home
Into the abyss of the unknown
Caught up in a spiderweb
Made from flesh and bone

We owe a debt of gratitude
While our way of life remains
A safety measure as it were
And all that it contains

Stand up tall and salute
To the flag we share with pride
While nations all around us fall
How many more must die?

Wars are fought but never won
That’s why we must carry on
We pray for peace under the sun
Embracing all that we’ve become

Our voice and thoughts burn in our brains
There’s still hope which we now contain
Nothing comes without change
A life of peace, that still remains
