She looked directly in my eyes, and then she looked away. It really came as no surprise, that I should feel this way. I'd seen it coming for so long, I knew what lie in store. I simply wanted one more song, I yearned for just one more. For she could take my breath away, with songs so sweet and clear. I'd go to listen every day, just for the chance to hear. To be around that strong sweet voice, I could not help but smile. Each day I had no other choice, but to listen for awhile. Who am I to want for more? She's gone now.... yet I linger. Yearning for what went before, inspiration I could bring her. In dreams last night I heard the phone, a constant steady ringing. I said hello to a voice unknown, until I heard the singing.

For Suzanna
She looked directly in my eyes, and then she looked away. It really came as no surprise, that I should feel this way. I'd seen it coming for so long, I knew what lie in store. I simply wanted one more song, I yearned for just one more. For she could take my breath away, with songs so sweet and clear. I'd go to listen every day, just for the chance to hear. To be around that strong sweet voice, I could not help but smile. Each day I had no other choice, but to listen for awhile. Who am I to want for more? She's gone now.... yet I linger. Yearning for what went before, inspiration I could bring her. In dreams last night I heard the phone, a constant steady ringing. I said hello to a voice unknown, until I heard the singing.
