I know you still love him,
Your mind is no where else.
It's over, your heart can't win
Your soul's wrapped up in hell.
You can't deal with the truth,
He left with your best friend
I know that your world's gone blue
but I wish you'd let me in

Chorus:
I can caress your heart and cloud those
Memories of him,
I just need you in my arms,
To show you love again
Girl I can be the sun in your mind
When your thoughts grow dim.
I just need you in my arms
To show you love again.

I know broken hearts can mend,
Cause I've watched them come around
So realize you can start again
Please girl don't shut me out
There's more than one chance to love
With the joy two can share
I wish I could gain your trust
I wish I could reach you there....

Bridge:
I fight the tears in my eyes
As I watch you fade away,
The lonely fears you hide,
Make me wish you could hear me say.

Chorus:
I can caress your heart and cloud those
Memories of him,
I just need you in my arms,
To show you love again
Girl I can be the sun in your mind
When your thoughts grow dim.
I just need you in my arms
to show you love again.

The role of poetry is to utter the un-utterable; to open up
spaces of consciousness and resistance; to language oppressions; to
re-language historie

This is such a fine song with deeply heartfelt emotion. Well done Ethan!

Whether on the shoal or on the shore,
I'll seek the lighthouse evermore.

I would love to be able to hear the melody but the song is in my heart.

Nicely done ET...lots of singing going on
at PiP lately, huh?  

You sang this well...what lady could ever
resist this sincere desire of commitment
and honor...

ethome,
Reminds me of a song off Pet Sounds -- Here Today.

Right now you think that she's perfection
This time is really an exception
Well you know I hate to be a downer
But I'm the guy she left before you found her

It's all a circle.

(big hugggsssssss) Oh Eric, this is so compassionately beautiful, sweet friend, and may she let you kiss all her tears away and together you will find true comfort! (sigh) This is gorgeous, sweet friend, God Bless You, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Eric, thank you for sharing!



May loven and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Eric

You can find such stories of heart, like you've been in all...stage front...and the rhythm and music feel, I think you were born with.

I just need to work out a few kinks in the tune,
and once I get my PC and Digital Ensemble married (sssoooooonnn),
I will be able to hammer it out properly,
And link it to you handily.

Oh well, really liked it, and didn't want to see a Canadian boy swallowed in the late-night of overseas posts - up you go  o o     o     o    o       o.
