You came along
Like a fire burning bright
Like a thief in the night
You came along

You came all wrong
You stole my heart at a glance
I didn’t even have a chance
You came all wrong

What to do?
Should I welcome it or fight it?
There’s no way I can deny it
I want you

I’m standing on the ledge
Might as well dive instead of fall
Give nothing less than my all
Slip over the edge

Now I know where I belong
With you it must be
You mean everything to me
You came along
I thought I saw you there naked and alone
Like a wish I made at Christmas all dressed in earthen tones
All misty water color hues and clouds with sunshine on
Fading into rainbows that smiled and were gone
Beside the mighty ocean with its thundering primal tide
Your savage beauty's innocence shone from deep inside
I love you once , I love you twice , I love you for all time
To me you are perfection in syncopated rhyme
I always knew I'd find you there I know you with my mind
A place where I have always been and may never leave behind
I bring to you my hopes and dreams things that may never be
To dwell with you forever beside our lonely tree

I expected broken promises,
But you left a broken soul.
I hoped this time'd be different,
But it's the Same I've grown to know.

You spoke of crush,
Altered by a greater fall.
But it shouldn't make much difference;
Like is like, after all.

She burned your heart,
Ripped it out,
But I'm here to cool the flames.
She didn't care,
No ounce of love,
Just playing out her games.

The second choice,
Not too bad.
If only that was an option.
You're done with her,
And here I wait,
Still no interest I've gotten.

So tell me,
If you may,
What might it be,
That I could say
To hold your heart,
Within my hand?
Together in one part
It'd stand.

I'd do what I could
To prove
To you
Just how much I care.
I'll fight for you,
As long as you need,
And never leave your side.

So love me,
Or love me not.
Just know, your words
Are not forgot.

So if you make a promise,
To me this dead of night,
I'll wake in the morning,
With everything alright.

others tell you your wrong
everything youve done is your way
everyday you learn something new
only if others were true
fake is a shadow
the truth is the light enetering the dark
looking the other way denying the truth
i cannot do because i know the lies a fallin thru
voice of truth so pure
lies that shine right thru your eyes
speak the truth life is easier nothing to hide
speak the truth be know for whats real
I'd come and take your hand
dance with you on the beach sand
do some crazy things like it was planned
kiss you under the stars of the midnight sky
but baby remember,
this is just a one night stand
and baby try to forget,
that  this  ever  happened
because a love like this is strictly banned
