The One I Seek When my heart was ready, when I came of age, I left my parent’s nest, to find a beautiful stage, I found the perfect spot, in a very lovely tree, To sing my little song, so my True Love could hear me. Singing for the one that I seek, The one that I seek The one that I seek. Many birds were singing, and a few answered me, Many were very sweet but not my true love to be, One cool afternoon, a song could be heard all around, I finally saw her, a Cowbird with lovely feathers brown. Singing that you were the one that I seek The one that I seek The one that I seek. Your song was so merry, so high, so sweet Your words and soft nature a gentle treat Could you be the one that I seek? Was it truth coming out of your beak? Singing that you were the one that I seek The one that I seek The one that I seek. A nest I had built, my heart was nestled there, The love for my true love laid open and bare, With the rush of winter coming, your notes did sway, So I didn’t see you trying to roll my heart away. Singing that you were the one that I seek The one that I seek The one that I seek. I was alone so welcomed your lovely song, Ignoring everything that told me that this was wrong, You put your needs in my nest, saying they were mine, I was so lost, I believed what was toxic was just fine. Singing that you were the one I seek The one I seek The one I seek Then my True Love appeared, from the warm south, You did your best to take her words from her mouth. That you were there first, that she would have to share, That your needs came first, that it would be fair. Singing that you were the one I seek The one that I seek The one that I seek. I did my best to make it work, despite the heavy strain, Nothing was good enough, proving your love was pain, You tried to run my life and made all my friends flee, If you were my True Love, why did you do this to me? While singing that you were the one that I seek The one that I seek The one that I seek. You thought you had it under control, had it your way, That we would do what you wanted, to do as you say, You dismissed her size, you so didn’t see her strike, It was never you Cowbird; for my True Love is a Shrike. And now you have a thorn driven through your cheek, Through your cheek, Through your cheek. Farewell Cowbird, your lies were never to be enough, Your sweet notes were misleading, your song but a bluff, My eyes are open, and my mind is finally clear, I sing my own song, for my True Love to hear: That she is the one that I seek, The one that I seek, The one that I seek.

The One That I Seek

I love you. Your emptiness was filled with my soul Together forever we’d grow old One look at you My heart always knew That nothing else could compare To this love we beautifully share To hold your hand, and know it’s mine That’s the definition of a moment Stopped in time To feel so safe and secure To feel your body so near We’re the perfection of natural selection To have your warmth A feeling so real We’ll share this love Until it runs out But without a doubt I love you more To a lifetime of you and me. Where love is unquestionable And faith is always in the air Together forever, a love we both share.

Love handed to me on a silver platter Indecision Indecision So much indecision My head and my heart are plagued with internal tug of war Feet slip Face down in the mud Love lingers like the smokey taste of last nights cigar One never forgets the best

A Friday in December
I love how my eyes dance as they do Especially when they see you Think about being together Loving each other forever For eternity hand in hand Love me tonight, you’ll understand I’ll be spring if you feel winter I’m your sweet when you feel bitter Springtime colours, they pass us by So beautiful it makes you cry When spring comes walk through the flowers Two souls as one for hours and hours Fair-weather minds need the sunshine True hearts show you are really mine Deep inside your heart is a voice It speaks words of truth, not by choice You won’t want to think of the rest When you have been loved by the best It has really been such a long, long while It really feels so good to smile Keeping each other satisfied Together laying side by side As delicate as our love grows Some people say love is a rose How far does the universe go? It is infinite; you should know A higher power healed our scars Our love is endless, as the stars To put it all into some context I’m here for this life and the next

For This Life And The Next
I see the pain behind your eyes Drowning your hopes for tomorrow Love will wear many a disguise To find a way through your sorrow You feel you’re lonely everywhere The world to you seems so unkind All this time no one seemed to care Your heart will show the light, you’ll find The truth of your soul comes your way The mind will only deceive you Just when it seems you’ve gone astray You know your troubles will leave you Call my name I’ll be there somehow Remember the love you found here Every day when you need me now Through the spirit, we are bound here Falling like a star from the sky Falling like an autumn leaf does By your side, till the day I die This is how falling for you was You can hold me deep in your heart You will remember true love’s place When your world seems to fall apart Think of me just stroking your face Our true love is deeper than deep It takes you from the burning pyre With a little work, you can keep The truest love you most desire
