Your Lips

Wrote this for a girl I dated…and never sang it for her

~

The left lane can have the traffic

Because I need to think a while

Of city lights and sidewalks

And the moments when she smiled

I can’t deny the power

Getting stronger every hour

And I just can’t account

How things can go so well

~

The strength of this feeling

The changing of the seasons

It’s all so surreal

When the snowfall finds the ground

Two hours on the highway

And the traffic did fly by

Now I watch the snowflakes fall

Onto city steets below

~

But I won’t part your lips, On this kiss

It is only, Our very first one

You give your love so freely, Even though you don’t need me

And now I am caught up, In your mysteries

~

So the night draws to a close

As my heart begins to grow

And I watch the shadows dance

With the candles on my floor

Like the changing of the season

There is no ryme or reason

And I lie awake at night

Because the warmth of your touch

~

But I won’t part your lips, On this kiss

It is only, Our very first one

You give your love so freely, Even though you don’t need me

And now I am caught up, In your mysteries

~

Peace and Love
