Picture this babe

Come to me woman, and butter my fears with the comfort of

 of tomorrow's that we

and keep them in a pretty vase in our minds to share forever;

Picture this babe, close your eyes and softly kiss me

Install yourself an app to keep track of more than just

Why not store things you encountered along the way there and

Grab hold of the best things you see, enjoy them now to the

Picture this babe, we can plant a garden of giggles and tend

Wrapped in candy coated aspirations

Passionately exchanging flirtations

If it’s a wondrous thought might do the trick

We’ll have a yard full of them from which to pick

Picture this babe, you and I swinging in our meadow of

Picture this babe, just like those fairy tales we’ll live

How do I say

How do I say I’m sorry for your pain? Do I show my ignorance

Do I just utter the syllables and form the word, in time

Or do I wrap my life around the wounds, and say through my actions,

How do I say I would be happy to give, all I have and all I

With you. I see tomorrow’s full of hope, life is full of pitfalls

Those days at the bottom, picturing that dream, ride the

How do I say I love you and will beyond measure? Do I try to

Do I tell you I’d forsake it all as long as I could stand, beside

Or do I show you by my never-ending deeds, by perpetually trying

How do I say I love you, well I only know one way, kiss you goodnight,

That’s how

Your valiant shine

It’s the big day to send a red heart.

You’ve had mine right from the start.

I could ask you to be my valentine

But instead, I’ll offer to be your valiant shine.

When the clouds won’t let you see the sun

And we fall apart cause we can’t have any fun.

Life gets dull, but no worry; cause along with being mine

You get a cloudy day cleared away, from your valiant shine.

Forget the red candies and please no corny movie

No new things to try, just kick back with you and get

Throw on some old tunes and get our emotions flying!

Yeah, that’s what I do I dust off the best I’m your valiant

Crave

Dreaming of a river, sunshine, and a slow raft, seeing you

Splashing me and telling me how glad, how you were thrilled with

Drifting as we lovingly embraced, feeling your passion

Moments like these I would forever save, dream them again

Woman you are my heart’s desire, set my soul on fire, lying

TV shows play but I really can’t focus, walking the yard and

Eager to show off their beautiful bloom, their radiance

Birds sing it’s nearly time for rebuilding the nest, come

Like a bear awakening stumbling from his cave, I’m ravenous

But there ain’t nothing wrong with me that embracing you

I crave the scent of your neck, to kiss your face, I crave

I crave your lying there in your sexy lace, I crave you

I crave everything about you, from the start and babe I

Well…

What are the good old days? Who gets to share them and who

Happiness is better shared, whether with chicken or some fat

People on the right say we need to get back, got to add some

We need that last guy again,  get us revved up, keep the immigrants out, put

Make the bad nations cringe in fear, keep our jobs plentiful

Get the economy going and get the stock market back in gear

Well…huh

Right now, unemployment is under 4, the highs before the

Border plan brought by the right, agreed to by the left but

Cause that Mr. Wonderful from before says no, he wants to

Showing the country how they need him to fix this toilet,

Don’t you listen to a word of that jive, as honest as

Everyone has a right to freedom, clean air, fair trade; and a

Well…duh

But look around you

Blessed

Blessed are those who are quick to offer a prayer

Blessed even more are those who are always there

Blessed are the ones who offer their love from the start

Blessed are you cause you have a home in my heart

Blessed is the sun that lights a new day to improve

Blessed are the fruits that supply the energy to move

Blessed honey is the shelter you provide to warm my soul

Blessed for eternity are those vows that make us whole

Blessed is today, maybe not the one that we held out hope

Blessed is the strength we have in our love that lets us

Blessed are you for believing that it’s easier to quit than

Blessed are you holding firm to your dreams as you sit and

Blessed will be the morning you wake with your troubles

Blessed will we be for keeping the faith that one day we’d

Blessed times to live our days, joined to become happy as

Blessed be all those whose love keeps the fire lit till the

This dream

She was exhausted and he was depressed, he felt so defeated,

Mornings had found him disheveled, mistreated even in

Don’t you be reading tea leaves, she spoke in sharp inflection,

And before a fortnight has passed we’ll share a toke, by

Again, he took her promise, through several grains of sand,

She said with such conviction, smiling through her pains,

He lumbered back to his brooding grounds, feeling like an

Still, he mumbled to himself, I’d do it again cause she

Blasted music through his speakers as he sipped, morning

Smiled as he pulled on his sneakers, wanting to scream for

Warmth melts away the glacier over his heart, the genesis of

Lying together melding into one joy, one emotion, eternally

He whispered to her over the telephone, she laid back

Knowing that in just another sleep she would be dancing on

They both felt the connection, she healed that infection,

He caught it with such glee, two stranded lovers free,

Shhh, don’t you wake me from this dream…

Back at the deserted parking lot

Back at the deserted parking lot, every year, there was a

Out by the freeway, young boys laughing riding the Tilt a

Long paved over, filled now with progress and commerce, they’re

And there’s a subdivision over one, shopping center over the

Special places off farm fields that we used to camp and ride

Are now new homes, and roads adorn those hills we rode

Take me away from this time, put me back, put me so far back

Back at the deserted parking lot, yes that time was so much

Tomorrow was coming, next week too, we enjoyed every day and

Then day by day, year by year things started to change,

Friends were no longer standing by our side, our days of

Then we lost people forever, their deaths tearing gaping

The once large group now numbering a few, heavier and grayer

Back at the deserted parking lot, smell the midway, see all

Close your eyes and see those no longer there, then wonder

Back at the deserted parking lot, remembered more fondly

We split for schools far away, some left to go right, all of us

Back at the deserted parking lot, the decisions were easy,

Maybe it’s just a case of selective memory, or maybe I made

Waiting to get warm, things get back to norm

Make me feel whole, fulfill the role, vanquish my desire

Take this cold man, do what you can like logs on the fire

Glow and give the view, illuminate the magic you can do

Let’s see some choices, hear those heavenly voices, a

Symphonic sound rumbles, that cold darkness crumbles like

Tell me the hour is near, say those four words I long to hear

You know, I’m on my way, myriad fireworks make a dazzling

Clean and pack, fire it up, raise and toast another cup,

Breathe salvation in my soul, join me as we reach our goal, toss

Brilliant radiance

Brilliant radiance resilience paid recompense

My angel appears through the fog heaven sent

Shining across my fears, platinum hair wipes my tears

The lingering steam clouding tomorrow suddenly clears

Brilliant radiance

Layers of yesterdays heartaches, a mind can be strong until

Forget devoting thoughts to the pains and catch a break on

Brilliant radiance, resilience paid recompense

Enjoyment of those dreams and where have those troubles

Brilliant radiance

Here comes smiles over frowns, chuckle freely while we dance

Closing out their caterwauling tap dancing on their noses to

Two lovers joining forces bound together, swing round the

No need for lights, just see the fire burning night and day through

Brilliant radiance
