Eyes Closed

He says I love you in the dark 

It helps to ease his aching heart 

Though he knows it's for the best 

His heart won't rest 

He says I love you in the dark 

She wonders if he feels the same

Though they must resist the flame

She feels the words he says each night  

Hopes he's alright

She wonders if he feels the same

They'll have each other in their sight

When their eyes are closed tonight

And it gives them pleasant dreams

Makes them serine

He says I love you in the dark

 

Three Beasts

While walking through the deep

I found them fast asleep

A docent took my arm

Said they mean no harm

You see these forms of love

They're just looking for a home

There were within my sight

Three Beasts of pure delight 

Domesticated love is sought by one and all

Mothers, Dads, and siblings

catch you when you fall

It is strong and good, 

And seek we should 

The ultimate need

On this we all agree

It moves slow and easy 

Self-sacrifice is its fate 

Always there and never late

Object love however, is active all the time

People, things and scenes, 

The focus of the mind 

First it flirts 

Then makes you work 

And when it's acquired 

At once will snuff the fire 

Despised by some

It must pursue 

Needing something new 

Crazy love is the most beautiful to behold 

The least understood yet we seek it like gold 

This rare find 

Can take your mind 

So intense you lose your care 

You will follow it anywhere 

The strong might resist 

As soon as you think it's tame 

It'll overtake again. 

Don't wake that one, my docent said 

It is relentless 

I smiled and thanked him for the warning

As something followed us in the shadows

See the World

We step into the air

Do the rumba in Spain 

Have a peach in the morning 

Then board a plane 

See the pillars of Rome

In the afternoon 

The wine in France 

Makes our hearts swoon 

It might be a dream 

I hope it comes true

This is what I see 

When I think about you 

Palm trees wave

A bright blue sea 

Snorkel a reef 

Dry in the breeze

Counting bricks on a walk

Through the streets of Prague 

Stand on a mountain 

A duet on a stage 

Call it a dream 

I hope it comes true 

The things I see 

When I think about you

Deep green fields 

Along an Irish shore

A dressy hat  

We all adore 

Lunch in a tower 

An awesome view

Made better still  

When I look at you

It might be a dream 

But it's not a lie

I can see the world 

In your fun filled eyes

You Know

Nobody knows me like you do

You really know my inner fool

When I think something's funny 

You are laughing too 

Cuz

Nobody knows me like you do

Nobody knows me like you do

We both believe in the same rules 

When I dare defy them 

You are right there too 

Since

Nobody knows me like you do

Nobody knows me like you do

Even when I'm acting cool

Everything I'm thinking 

You are thinking too

Well  

Nobody knows me like you do

Nobody knows me like you do

A bond that's strong as super glue

If it ever changed

The world would break in two

Yes

Nobody knows me like you do
