You come swooping in every time I get him back.
Don't ruin this time for me too.
Don't get me wrong,
You are a great kisser,
But conversations you're lacking.
Romance,
You could work in that too.
Stick to your life down south
And I will keep to mine up here.
Don't offer to give me the fire I am looking for.
That moment of passion with you
Is wasted in my eyes.
It could be spent with someone sweeter,
Funnier,
Hell, even taller.
Stay away from me faux Romeo,
You are not needed here.

you can be john mayer,
and i will be your aretha.
bend your strings,
i will flex my pipes.
we can make music,
maybe even love.
the two are so close together,
so why pull them apart.
what do you say maestro?
wanna make a melody together?

Take me home,
I am loving this rush.
Room swirling,
words dancing,
poets singing.
Numb tongues
and loose lips.
Wishing you were here
to take me to the places I want.
The only Southern Comfort
I know is the southern twang in your voice.
Come back,
back to my arms,
back to my home.
I am the most like me
when I am with you.
I wish you were here
to take me back.
My numbness would be gone,
the hollowness too.
It's only you I see,
and till this glass is gone
you will be on my mind.

Dreams of you always feel so real.
I can see your smile again,
Hear your country drawl.
Dreams of you make me feel so alive.
Going down dirt roads,
Sitting in the middle of your truck,
Finding places to pull off for a minuet or two
To fill our need of kissing.

But when I wake up the wanting starts again.
That hallow ache only you bring.
Every sad country song is about you.
Every pick up truck is you passing me by.
Where have you gone?
I miss you.
Can you tell?
Do you feel it too?
Come back to me,
Or at least give me a call.
This heartache is too much.

One month and 12 days.
Thats how long it took me to cry over you.
I went out dancing and the only guy I could see was you.
I didn't care for the cowboys with their crooked smiles,
or the Fly Boys with their dog tags shown proudly.
All I wanted was you.
I wanted your quiet confidence and concern for my boundaries.
I wanted your tan hands against my pale attempt at rhythm.
I wanted your sweet smile and strong arms.
I wanted your warm scent and crinkled laugh.
But you weren't there.
Where were you?
Were you at a party somewhere trying to ****** another girl?
Were you with the boys chugging warm beer
and crudely mixed drinks?
Were you trying to forget all that we had?
We both know you aren't cut out for that scene,
you won't find what you are looking for.
But I hope you do.
And I hope it's me again.

Sunshine on bare legs,
feet on the dash.
Wind twisting through opened windows
and newly loosened hair.

Open road with the heat dancing
waves from the black top.
Petty and Mellencamp on the radio
sets the tone for our American adventure.

Let's head to Phoenix or Santa Fe,
anywhere as long as it's with you.

The sun is calling our names,
calling us away from these cold, barren plains.

You don't belong here,
your eyes are screaming for the summer.
Your soul is tires on pavement
creating it's own humming song of freedom.

My feet are planted here,
but it's time to uproot with you.

Make out
To take it out.
Get it put out of your head.
Thoughts,
Feelings,
Gone.
One time
Is all it takes
To forget what you were longing for.
Go from one to another
But it's always hallow.
Like singing into a cave,
Or having no one to follow your shadow.
A smile is nice but I want more,
A touch is good too,
But what I need is a kiss,
It's the only thing that will do.
Faked emotions just for the act,
To help me find something I lack.
I know I will get there soon but till then,
You look nice
Wanna share a smile or two?
