Well it's a crazy world after romance and the lawyers love people with rights The journals of wrong gave us no chance until we settled on mutually nice. Family ties got tossed in a canyon Where the strength of all reason erodes Now we're feelin the lonely abandon on life's restless and empty byroads Chorus: I know our world turned tragic All the turmoil was unkind And we found Cupid's magic Was a trick that played on our mind Well we used to make love in the moonlight Oh the heat was as hot as the sun. And time would just stop it was so right on into the night we would run. Now we're tried by the toil of existence while we care for the children we share But we've finally found that forgiveness Keeps us movin from hurt to aware Rep chorus. The role of poetry is to utter the un-utterable; to open up |

"Now we're tried by the toil of existence while we care for the children we share But we've finally found that forgiveness Keeps us movin from hurt to aware" (big hugggsssssss) Oh my gosh, this is a wonderful song, I love it, I hope soon you pit more MP3s of you singing with your poems because I downloaded your debut on my computer and every time I play it I smile because you have such a beautiful voice with your lyrics! (smiles) God Bless You, sweet friend, I love to write songs too like my 16,000th post I wrote for Joanna and I hope to write like you, you are a true inspiration, yay, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Eric, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |

Now we're tried by the toil of existence while we care for the children we share But we've finally found that forgiveness Keeps us movin from hurt to aware =================================== Ive said this many times before, but it will always bear repeating... YOU ROCK!!! I swear you got melodics and harmony running thru your veins and your blood flows in moody blues And the truth, irony and wisdom of that first verse is cooler than cool.... The journals of wrong gave us no chance until we settled on mutually nice. Yep...youre a music man poet... Yeppers..you rock |
