Faith And Faithless Others can live with fancy They don't need commitment Or to feel true love But others aren't me I know I need to be In love, to totally feel love I have it in you Others can feel light affection Dance with many partners Spinning from one to another Never settling for any one But I need the security Of knowing my love Is mine and mine alone I have found this with you Others can flit at will Smile with equanimity Into any eyes that lie close Smiling deceptively At whoever they toy with But I know that's not me I need certainty in my love Need to know without doubt I am the only one Whose smile beguiles them so As my smile beguiles you Others can flirt outrageously Charming those who cluster all around Not caring where or whose ears Are charmed by their false flattery But I need the knowledge Of total truth, Need faithfulness and honesty And I trust my heart to you Others are like butterflies Faithless, and wandering They flutter at every attractive face But I need the attentions Of a faithful bee And to my one and only I yield all my honey I yield myself to you Marsha Tomorrow is another day I don't know what it holds |

Others are like butterflies Faithless, and wandering They flutter at every attractive face But I need the attentions Of a faithful bee And to my one and only I yield all my honey Ride on Lady, a perfect song sung and what every woman dreams of.... Hugs to you....on a marvelous write |
