She stopped me dead in my tracks
The track skipped a beat
I don’t need a beat
I need her in my bed sheets
You see her?
Over there?
With the natural black hair?
Looking so worldly
Paris to Providence
Puerto to Prague
synapses snap
inner dialogue…
..
.
I don’t know if you know me
I don’t know if you want to
I know I don’t know you
I know that I want to
But how do I know
If my true feelings are shown
That to bits, my heart won’t be blown
Dream about you, wake
and you’re gone without a trace
Feel in my soul
That with me is your place
I swear I
see heaven with every glance of your face
But until I muster up the gusto
to take a chance
to stop dreaming and snap out of this trance
with you
in lieu
of love
we shall never dance
I’m even scared to say this to you
because to me
intimidating equals beautiful
so I go over this in my head
inaction again instead
Am I willing to prove that all guys aren’t the same?
Where I want to be
Is by your side
dry your tears, help you conquer your fears
my arms always
open wide
surrendering my soul through
these few words
supple love verbs
we could be
a couple love birds
you and me
flying high
Come on Ty!
The dream is too grand
not to take a stand
not to attempt
to circumvent
my own fears
my own tears
and get in gear
and ask her now
someway
somehow
To not be shy
to give love a try
to stand up tall
once and for all
to be a man
take her hand
squeeze it tight
fight for my right
finally tonight is the night
to have the right lover
damn I waited too long
she’s gone
the night’s over
…
