Sometimes I get so upset
Can't seem to get it straight...
some things I think are all wrong
turn out to be OK
Wonderin if you're what you seem
because of things you do and say
but then it does occur to me
I just might be savin face...

I wanna love you long and deep
I wanna hold you and believe
Every sweet word that you speak
But my heart keeps failin me

Are you the happiness I'm hearin
Outside my gaurded door
Are you truth beyond appearance
The true love I'm lookin for

yep.  But you'll never know unless you dive in.  I like your song, it flows well, and speaks to me.

Questions .... always questions
Now, for me, my friend, would you write a ballad with answers?  puhleeeze

Poet, said my Muse to me, look in thy heart and write.
