SWEPT AWAY I see your eyes and realize There's nothing left to say. The chemistry overcomes me Yeah, I've been swept away. Emerald shine of love all mine, I fall into the gleam. Holding you near, feeling no fear, I know ‘tis but a dream. The picture pulls, a soft voice lulls, Sweet magic fills the air. A tingly dance of sweet romance Taken me unaware. By passions born I dare adorn To offer you my hand. To share by song this need I long For you to understand. To feel the burn, to taste in turn The passion from your lips. To feel your skin melting within These searing fingertips. A pulsating flame abating All conscience control. With eyes of dare meeting my stare, As two become one soul. So soft you call, there offer all Of yourself unto me. Allure of voice leaving no choice, I answer destiny. So crystal clear, so far yet near, Lies our love intertwined. I hold you tight all through the night, If only in my mind. Michael Anderson [This message has been edited by Michael (edited 03-20-2000).] |

"Nothing left to say" ? Knowing you, not bloody likely! I am delighted for you! (I told you it would be incredible...) And..."your girl is lovely, Hubble..." serenity grins. Take good care of my sister, love... (Serenity exits, against the backdrop of a setting sun...) |
