I'M NOT IN LOVE it's hard to write much any more i'm not depressed or blue and politics are such a bore i'm not in love with you
i have no cause to write about i have no need to preach or shout there is no thought that's fresh or new i know i'm not in love with you
there are no songs i want to hear no music ringing in my ear do you still hear that music, too? i know i'm not in love with you
remember how we used to talk the day and all night through? remember where we used to walk? i'm not in love with you
sometimes my dreams are almost real you are so close that i can feel if only dreams could all come true i know! i'm not in love with you
and every day it's all the same each time i talk i speak your name i wonder if you miss me too why does it hurt - this loving you?
WE NEVER HAD A CHANCE
there never was a time when i could hold you call you mine and all that i can ever do is to dream these thought i have of you recreate a past where our love would always last i never even had a chance to ask you for the final dance no memories of joy or bliss or eyes that closed on our first kiss we never walked on beach or sand or gently held each other's hand we never had a favorite song to comfort us the whole night long we never made a perfect team we never shared a lover's dream for there never was a time when i could hold you call you mine
TELL ME
tell me - what do you feel when i look into your soul? tell me - what is it you're afraid of when i tell you that i care?
why do you run when i reach out my hand? is it just too close to your heart? feelings so strong and so tight
afraid of disappointment rejections and hate so long - so alone so hurt - so intense
feelings so new unable to understand wishing for someone to let you know just what you should do left alone in a one person sailing yacht
so hard to imagine it could be true days and nights spent with a prayer a prayer answered but yet imperfect longing for someone yet so unsure of just what to say
all you asked for someone to love you obstacles blocking your path questions arise - is this feeling veracious? is this feeling right?
can it really be true? what does it mean? will i be hurt? will i hurt you who i love? elation and pain thoughts marching through my mind as if soldiers at night marching into a raging battle
am i wrong to love you?
so many questions - so little time so many answers - which one to choose? what is the best for me?
do i compromise my values so to hold this feeling close to my heart? do i jeopardize a friendship or a love just because it's imperfect?
sounds of glass and steel crashing into my night emotions and rage at times so nice others it is not
what do i do? what do i say? ???
THE STRUGGLE
as i look into your eyes and i look into your smile i wonder if you know just how i feel for you
after a long day you toss me a look what does it mean? does it mean you have enjoyed my company?
i wonder if you think about me when i am not around i wonder if you realize just how highly i think of you
then i hear someone say that you mentioned my name ar that you asked how was my day?
the thoughts and reminders of you make each and every day a bit easier to view and my only wish that i do the same for you
YOU
eyes as sparking diamonds heart as warm as a kiln laying awake at night hoping hoping just to hold you in my arms nights spent crying - alone and suffering only wishing you were in my arms
alone in this sea of emotions storm surges of emotions lasting for only a few desolate minutes why did i do the things that i did - always sailing alone in this one person yacht?
