Muted Shades Dance with me lover, in the rain Make me feel young again Hold me under clouds of gray Lets love the rainy day away He won’t be home until very late Lets tiptoe through the forbidden gate Taste the passion sweet as tears Dance with me despite your fears Roll on loud thunder, the lightning is bright My soul is restless on this dark night I seek to find what will bring me peace I somehow must find a sense of release The moon is hidden, the stars the same Angels tears fall in the form of rain I scream and cry into the abyss Nothing should feel as lonely as this I stumble blind in the storms peak Afraid to find what I must seek Then suddenly I feel you there Flash of lightning, I see your stare Eyes as cold as your heart must be Devoid of all sensitivity No longer bright as a summers day My lie has taken your light away The thunder harsh, and you are gone I know you finally have moved on How long did you stand in the rain? How deeply did you feel the pain? I turn to go back to waiting arms Still seduced by all his charms The lightning cracks, I surrender my will For his touch gives me a thrill I know not why I gave in To be with him in this sin Maybe the storm made me go astray Maybe we were meant to end this way The thunder rolls, the lightning is bright You were not supposed to return tonight Flash of light, I saw you there Death cold look, a lovers glare Dance with me lover, I lost my heart Help me see why we must part The storm is passing, where’d you go How did I ever get so low? The dance is over, the storm did pass My heart is shaded like frosted glass I gambled and lost because I gave in You were my passion, he my sin Goodbye gray skies, hello blue I somehow thought you already knew And now I cry my tears without sound As puddles dirty the outside ground Loved and lost for loving too many Now it seems I haven’t any Cry your tears I’ll cry mine too Such muted shades of gray to blue. ------------------ Let my words fall first upon deaf ears before a closed mind...

Excellent piece, it really deserves to be moved up. Sorry I missed this the first time around azblond. ------------------ Being paranoid is the biggest reason I'm still around to practice my paranoia. DreamEvil© |

Thanx for your help on what was troubling me about it, I made the minor changes...still...Oh well. Thanx again for the help Dream. ------------------ For sometimes when the Darkness falls, we must surrender, take what is ours, and give what we can, and always remember love is somewhere waiting... |
