Let
Let us sail an ocean
Let us swim a stream
Let us raft a raging river
And lay in lakes unseen

Let us scale the summits
Let us peek the peaks
Let us ramble rolling ridges
And scout untrodden streets

Let us move the mountains
Let us soar through trees
Let us cross the deepest valleys
And walk on silver seas

Let us fight for fairness
Let us wage a war
Let us joust and duel for justice
And life forevermore

Let us call on courage
Let us act humane
Let us gladly give forgiveness
With nothing to be gained

Let us pray for virtue
Let us hope for love
Let us live our lives in glory
Whatever lies above

Let us whisper wishes
Let us dare to dream
Let us chase our every passion
Let ambition reign supreme

Let me ask a favour
Let this wish come true
Let me take a thousand journeys
Just let them be with you

When the sun starts to rise, when the morning dew gleams
When the starry night shimmers, and the tranquil lake sheens,
When the starlings they dance, and parade in full view
Well I won’t see a thing, I’ll be looking at you

When the cold settles in, when the warmth starts to fade
When the winter wind chills, and the pink skies have greyed
When you’re looking for comfort, when you’re nursing your pain
I will hold you my love, be your shield from the rain

When the candle wick withers, when it’s losing its flame
When you’re tired of my voice, and the sound of my name
When the ground feels uneasy, and the doubts start to form
I will give you my word, we will weather the storm

When our skin starts to crease, when our bodies grow old,
When we’ve lived loved and laughed, and our story’s been told
When you’re ready to leave, when you’ve said your goodbyes
Well just know I’ll still be, right here by your side

These clouds up in the sky today
Again just look like sheep to me,
No more of dragons, frogs or birds
Can I, in odd shapes, make or see

These stars up in the sky tonight
Again just look like specks so small,
No more Greek gods or ancient lores
Am I much able to recall

These superheroes and comic books
Again just seem like childish plots,
No more their dark and twisted tales
Which long ago have been forgot

No more her smile
No more her cries
No more her clasp
No more her sighs

I let it all slip through my mind
These memories I leave behind
No more of all the things that she
For years had struggled to teach to me

Sitting there along the shore
Where scarlet turned to grey
Her memories here from years before
Have all but faded away

The dancing trails of feet on sand
Have long since gathered dust
The warmth of walking hand in hand
Has frozen up so fast

Now all the lingering scents and sounds
That in this place remain
Remind her of love's ups and downs
But bring her only pain

Patient though my heart may be
Its bounds shall not exceed
Thy tender loving creed

And open though my eyes may be
They live within a dream
Thy flaws remain unseen

And truthful though my voice may be
Its words shall not reveal
Thy heart how I would steal

And curious though my ears may be
They’d refuse to ever hear
Thy honest truth I fear

And trusting though my soul may be
It’d struggle to believe
Thy words of kind reprieve

So troubled though my mind may be
My self restraint shall free
Thy pain of knowing me

For longing though my heart may be
Its pride won’t let it speak
For thy love is out of reach

Through shuffling passengers
their eyes first meet
With a softly raised eyebrow
Each other they greet

Through deliberate seating
In direct line of sight,
With their hopeful hearts beating,
Their passions ignite

Through carefully dropped books
They succumb to their yearning
Exchange lingering looks
With a direct gaze that’s burning

Through nervous darting eyes
In opposing directions
They expose their eager cries
For each others’ attention

And through their look of disillusion
Upon their fruitless farewell
They reveal their frustration
At not leaving their shell

But through all that has been spoken
Neither dares to make a sound
And the silence remains unbroken
For their voices stay buried
Underground

Stop me loving her    hurting him ruthlessly
          Stop me loving her hurting him
              Stop me loving her hurting
                    Stop me loving her
                       Stop me loving
                             Stop me
                                Stop
