Oh why can’t I write a love song?
I measure you.. you measure me
a more perfect pair I have not yet seen
you finish my sentence  you represent distance
I have walked many miles in your eyes

I am eager to start again my only friend
If i could keep you, keep you in my mind
my bitter thoughts would have no where to hide
Oh why can’t I write a love song?

You took off my mask and brought color
     to this black and bothered heart
Put my mind to rest and I fell asleep in you
  There is no need for walking when your carried
   Oh why can’t I write a love song?

New lovers are nervous and tender, but smash everything. For the heart is an organ of fire

Oh, you have managed quite well, I would say.
Especially love the above sentence.

Beautiful!

Love, Margherita
