Does anybody know a simple love song, one that has no ego needs no pride, a song that would go prowling on the back roads, with room to take a tired man for a ride? It doesn’t have to be a golden oldie; I don’t want to weep for lovers who have died; I want to see the world again through new eyes, with lyrics that bring rhymes I haven’t tried. Someone told me I might need a little romance to take the bitter edge off of my soul; I laughed because I see the headland’s highways; and I miss the simple state of feeling whole; I just watched a brilliant Autumn dawning, through blue water eyes as from a ship broached on a shoal; the lee shore tide surrounds me with my wreckage as the waves of time digest it with each roll. ©2004 by icebox |

'I might need a little romance to take the bitter edge off of my soul" Oddly, it was romance that gave me my bitter edge... Pass the Chambord and we will sit by the fire and talk about Nina.   "cast me gently into the morning, for the night has been unkind" |

There are such songs, I'm singing one at this moment, one of several I've learned over the years....I'd share it with you but for a simple truth of it: It has no music or words. Such a thing just can't be shared; it's either within you or it's not, you either hear it unaided, or you do not. ~~J |

icebox "Does anybody know a simple love song, one that has no ego needs no pride, a song that would go prowling on the back roads, with room to take a tired man for a ride?" There is a song and the title is, Silly Love Song. I'm not sure who sang it back awhile ago...but the lyrics are timeless.  |

icebox, someone told me that once too laughing, I suppose, is a common reaction |

dear sir or should i sing wisdom man of mine your love goes back amongst ancient time where romans roam making love so carelessly didnt see the sign so ruins they came to be love is blind but control isn't kind let them dwell in their sin become blind to whats happining within to their surprise i took them beyond the skies told of what the future holds but yet they let sin take control man's fate god's hate lies despise love devil will shove who will win numbers again in the sky 6 element 6 signs 6 cycles now your turn to disciple |
