Highways Of My Heart ~*Marge Tindal*~  Out across the highways of my heart I've sometimes traveled roads of blame Found a Detour that got me safely around even the mention of your name But I've never wished I hadn't passed your way with all the road signs of no regret I found it easy to Yield to the temptation Soft Shoulders of you I'll not soon forget On the expressways of you I have traveled sometimes I Exit down a path of remind without becoming completely unraveled touring folded memories in the glove-box of my mind ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ |

Marge, I remember seeing you Along love's winding avenue You passed me in the outside lane And made mush out of my poor brain.. Although I only saw a flash Of beauty as you quickly passed You won the heart of Balladeer And put my motor in high gear! I fell for you so very much I hoped to get you in my clutch And prayed that I would get a brake To floor you good, for Heaven's sake! But you ignored this balladeer, A small dot in your rear-view mirror.  A mat beneath your feet am I.. Exhausted as you passed me by  |

That "Slippery When Wet" sign seems to get me every time! I've lost your love so many times it really is a crime! Every time I think that I'm as close as I can get I let you slip away 'cause you are slippery when wet! I shouldn't get your juices flowing...that's my only sin 'Cause when you get that slippery I know that I can't win. Next time I've got a new procedure that I'm gonna try... Instead of leaving you all wet, I'm gonna leave you high and dry!!!  |

Oh the direction down that road is not an easy one, but travel down it we will, time and time again. I have to love my glove box, especially the key to it. This was very nice~ |
