PATHWAYS Lord, I'm so lonely, I thirst everyday In search of the love I need, like a man in prison with no warmth at night, A slave who seeks to be freed. For I need a woman who will heal my heart, So my life won 't seem so wrong. I’ll lie down beside her and gamble again, Then sing of our love in a song. Remember, young Adam, your first favorite born, Who slept in your garden alone. You took form his body and transformed some flesh, Then gave him a woman unknown. Whichever the pathway I should choose to take, I realize that there will be brambles. For the man who has visions everyday of his life, Will always be the same who gambles. Now, to heaven I pray, for my treasure of life, After searching the deserts in vain. I’m tired of mirages from fool-hearted women, Please give me someone who’s sane. May her eyes be turquoise with cheeks like peaches, Ripe and ready to risk? Soon they’ll turn rosy when she sneaks a peek To the tingle of where I kiss. Though I will love her, I shall never follow. Nor will I ever lead. I'll walk beside her and share all I have For the children who spring from seed. If we should argue about foolish things, I 'd rather be loved than right. Then when I lie down at the end of my day, I'll sleep with a smile at night. By Tom Zart |
