Taste of Your Love

C’mon in tonight

I’ve been lonesome

I’ve been empty like

a well in long drought

Sitting here, still listening

to many a love song,

taking

the dreamer’s road

where all I can see is you –

finer than rainbow rings,

lovelier than the scent

of a thousand blooming roses.

Tonight,

as couples unite

and find love in the middle

of their warm embrace

all I want is you…

to come over without

the look of a stranger in your eyes

And without delay, your fingers

fitting perfectly between mine

as you love the all of me.

Maybe I’m too poor

to drive you around in fancy cars

or send you a basket of roses

or bathe you in a shower of diamonds

But it’s the thought of you

that gives my heart no rest

So I ask that you be with me

even if it were just this once.

Where Your Heart Lies (Theme III: Love)

 

 

 

 

 

Teasing, turning,
I can feel you, my love
in the gentle winds
arriving with your scent,
the sweet smell on the
landscape
of your skin
so soft I can feel you near;
your hands tracing lines
of desire on my chest.

I hear your call
I hear it in the music
of the pines,
the ethereal melodies
that bring me to the west –
the place we’ve made a home.

Today, the sun is at full gold;
it’s the vision of your
warm smile that appears
in my dreams and makes
me call out your name.

No more will I endure the distance
for without you, my love,
I’m a lone tree on barren land,
a castle without an army,
a knight without honor.

So I’ll return to you, my love,
for home is where your heart lies,
where mine will beat forever safe.
