you tell me what you need to hear;
I'll do the same and we'll make this very clear

you give me what I'm looking for now;
I'll do the best I can to please you and how

we can carry on in this blissful lie;
til guilt turns up with the cast of the die

then you will move on to other tragic,
deserted parts
and I'll trudge  along, to the next
in line of lonely hearts

we don't speak of it
it lies between us like sand
gritty and profuse
any movement shifts the dune
so we remain motionless

Tell me....
does the moon still
make you sway
does the falling rain
still make the day

Tell me....
do you still smile when
you hear the word bunny
do you shut your eyes
when she calls you honey

Tell me....
can you remember
our walks in the wood
can you remember
when "we" were so good

Tell me....
should I give up
and forget about you
or wait for you to finish
what you feel has come due

come near to me
and you will see
I'm just a woman
who chooses to be
humble and patient;
a veiled she.
a woman who
has found her key,
which happens to be
hidden under her beauty,
completely verified
each day on bended knee;
because it is to God
that I owe this fee.
a servant to her
faith; that's me
while still a woman who
loves to be called baby.
so please understand
my inclinations are free
approach me, speak with me
I'm sure you will agree
differences, we have not many
I wish you peace, honey

His voice ripples through me
it vibrates in my belly
it rips through my soul
leaving me without control

His flawless tones
beat about my ribs
as he tells his tale
his magic never fails

His whispers in the dark
turn me senseless
as I drown so deeply
giving in to his echoes joyfully

I'm tightly wrapped up in him
like plush smooth satin
waiting for his next velvety sound
both satisfied and spellbound

Inside I feel a savage storm
it gales and then pales
then blusters through m,y sopul
My mind is filled with chaos
as the fierce blasts of thought
erupt my waking hours
My dreams run rough and wild
as the tempest brews within
I have no control over the twister
My whirlwind is private
I've learned to tame the storm
learned to manage the rush
My wildness builds auspiciously
I've trained my storms into silence
until I'm alone and pensive
then it lets loose with fervor

If love finds you
isn't that all that's true

Shouldn't you take the chance
even if it's a sinful dance

Could you just follow your heart
setting your mind apart

Hoping you have done no wrong
you only listened to the song

Your soul filled with joy
even as each step set to destroy

How could such love be so bad
maybe truth is only for the mad
