I WANT TO BE A ROCK CHICK

 

I WANT TO BE A ROCK CHICK

Oh boy that’s going to make you sick

But hey this chic wants to be slick

So my jeans are ripped

At least I’m zipped 

Can you not hear the beat?

The rhythm and the heat

It’s screaming out loud

It has you on your feet

Prancing and dancing

Without a second glance or glancing 

The mumbo jumbo

This is my destiny

And not so quietly

This has been creeping and crawling

With the swiftest of tides

With the swiftest of waves

Oh boy I cannot change this destiny

It’s up to you

Dance along with me

Or we separate separately

This has captured me

Completely

I need to feel the freedom

Of this destiny

I don’t want to walk away from you

I want you to walk with me

Till the end, till the end

I feel you deeply

Your passion

Your magic

You’re my passion

The division, derision

Is driving me insane

This empty space

This empty home

Can we find away?

I don’t care how long it takes

You’re my life and soul

My life would be filled with darkness

You’re the one who brings the lightness

Come and walk with me

Stay and be my heavens above

Stay and be mine, mine

Let me be so, so close to you

Come and be my lifting me off the ground

Where there is no sound 

Come and help me not miss a beat

Oh baby, oh baby

Let’s get this rhythm back!

Let’s get it right

Let’s shine it all through the night

Day and night

I know what you are thinking

I see you blinking

But hey!

You said “You are my every-thing!”

Oh boy I can never, never do anything without you!

I have been by your side

Residing day by day

Night after night

Never leaving your highest place

Your success, I lived through them

And here I am on the cusp

So very alone

And not wanting to be

Be here, be there

For me!

Loving you, loving me

Don’t set me free

I’m not being obsessive

Possessive

I just need you by my side

With all your love and support

Laughing, crying

Screaming, hollering 

All the way to the top

With a one way stop

Oh boy, oh boy

Never ever forget

It works both ways

I STAND AND WAIT

 

I STAND AND WAIT

Upon this shores gate

This wide expanse that is filled with waste

It stretches beyond the lands and hands

Those have laid their hands upon

Looked upon

Walked upon these sands

Whilst I am here standing and waiting

I look out to the distance

The waves rising and falling

Just like our love

Never knowing whether we are

Coming and going

Just like two passing ships in the night

For a short while you are here

Oh such bliss I can hear

This heart has been touched

So very, very much

It is so hard when we depart

It tears this heart

So wide apart

Oh this aching, aching heart!

The absolute sheer ecstasy

The thrill so bliss

The excitement with your kiss

The passion in your touch

Oh the love I feel so much

The happiness that we feel

A happiness that feels surreal

The pleasure and the pain!

What more can we gain?

You have me in a trance

 With just one glance

Come back my lover!
