A talk with Him

I've been waiting
since the day that I left
to be born again
I've been waiting
yes waiting
since the day that I left
waiting for another chance
to stay dry in the rain
I have faded
faded enough I feel
My thoughts are pure not jaded
The darkness, the other side
the right side and the left
I`ve been waiting
contemplating
since the day that I left
will I be born again
or was I hung out to dry
left hanging
in anger and fear
is there no way out of here
what the hell is this
what kind of heaven is this
you can take it
I don`t want it
I don`t want this
Imagine, all this
because of a kiss
and I was not the giver
I was the goat
in a herd of sheep.

I'm waiting
painfully waiting
for the calling
I am waiting
to be born again
Another chance
to feel it again
A second chance
to be real again.

I've been waiting
since the day that I left
to get up
and just walk away
but I'm stuck waiting
It`s all up to you
my anticipating.

Pull these nails
out of my feet and hands
and let me go
I`ve been waiting
for my second chance
to come back
one more time
to be born
once again
But still I`m waiting
for the right time to come
I have faded
faded and waited enough I feel.

My love is still strong
and real
I keep waiting
I`ve waiting so long
I keep waiting
I`ve waited so long
won`t you please
let me go.

What is it you want from me
Whatever you want
just create it
Break the mould you used for me
create something else
I am hated.

Why do I feel these things I feel
Please tell me this is not real
I pray, I promise I will do as you ask
I beg you not to assign me this task
I know I`ve asked so many things of you
This is one thing I ask you not to do.

Uncertainty

If I’m ever too old
to snuggle close and hold you
would you still love me?
Would you take care of me
if I no longer could?
Thoughts of uncertainty
cannot be denied
But I know that you would
by the way I feel inside
Someone famous once asked a question
That I must ask to be sure
“will you still love me, will you still need me,
when I’m sixty-four?”
Hard of hearing
Eyesight failing
Body stiff and sore
With so many ailments
Life tries to even the score
But as long as we’re together
who could ever ask for anything more!?

Love costs so much

I hear and I see
But it’s all so confusing to me
The long whip of
Her eye lashes
Cools me down as
The car crashes
Long since that day
There’s been so much to say
But time carries on
Like the words to a song
That you’ve yet to hear
Waiting and anticipating
For a word for a clue
What should you do
A change of heart
A different scene
Someplace you’ve never seen
No time for reflection
Or to pretend
Love costs more
It costs more in the end
Cold harsh words
Run out across your
Blistering lips
Warm blood trickles
Between your fingertips
How come love always costs so much
It costs so much more in the end
The things I hear and I see
They are so confusing to me
The long whip of
Her eye lashes
Cools me down as
The car crashes
Long since that day
There’s been so much to say
But time carries on
Like the words to this song
That you’ve never heard
Yeah
She takes me places that I’ve never been before
She drives me crazy like no other has before
I lay naked beside her, on the kitchen floor
I think of her until I can’t think any more
She shows me things that I’ve never seen before
So tell me
How come
Love always cost so much
So tell me
How come
Love always cost so much
It always seems to cost so much
Love always costs so much
It always costs so much
In the end
In the end
In the end
The end
