Don'T Break Me Down
Love of my life, don't break me down,
make me feel like I belong in the pound,
lift me back up, I will lift you up too,
both will feel better about what we do.
Heaven on earth is how we both feel,
common courtesy lends much appeal.
Easy to stop negative things I say,
it's only the hurt makes me write such a way.
A hug and a kiss is all I can say,
a moment of tenderness to keep hurt at bay,
I try and I try to show you I care,
tell you-you're handsome and I will always be there.
Your special spot is where I must lay,
to quell all the hurt put my pain away.
Tell me you love me kiss me goodnight,
if not on the lips it's still quite alright.
There is not much this lady needs,
hope and encouragement are words I will heed.
Romantic at heart we both admit -
yet we still wallow in our past sh**.
Am I wasting my time waiting for you to say
I love you and let's run away?
Put yourself in my place, and flip the script,
reality check could you handle it?
The thing about me and this I do know,
I do not want to do things alone on my own.
My companion in life should be by my side,
holding my hand as we go on this ride.
There is no worse thing than being alone,
a human needs contact in order to grow.
Being away it is alright as long as
I know you'll be back at my side.
Just kiss me goodbye, hug me and say,
"I love you and miss you when I am away."
Thank you Cody Lee
