Straightforward Love Song
This is supposed to be a straight forward love song
Direct and raw and dedicated right to you
This is composed with all that’s going on within me
Everything I can say and all that I can do
You see I want to find new words new ways
To say what we’ve all known before
Declarations to what’s going on deep in the core
What is a cold heart?
What’s that way to caring?
Caught up again in a web of the self that’s finespun?
Well this is supposed to be a straight forward love song
Connecting to what’s special
That big, big hearted fun
But you know… there’s a terror to life
And lovers live on the brink
The anti romantic’s worked out
How we think
But in that warm heart
That gentle place of affection
Come here my love and stay near
This is supposed to be a straight forward love song
Direct and raw; honest and clear
Oh but I know we get lost
Overtaken, erratic, confused
Actions weigh heavy when instincts abused
So just yield now
Reflect on that light on the raindrops
See rose leaves twinkle resplendent in the sun
This is supposed to be a straight forward love song
Anticipated
Created
We love it sometimes we might even hate it
Can’t hide those thoughts any more
They’ve got to be stated
And tough times can be sore
The best is celebrated
Dig deep down to the core
To sing on and on
A straightforward love song
