Your Grandson

Our Families all done great things

Such deeds to make you proud

But I've always been the black sheep

That stands out in our crowd


I've took too many chances

And swam the seven seas

While all our clan grew businesses

Gained wealth and PHD's


But you'll never hear a bad word spoken

For all the things that I have done

As you love to hear the tales

Of me reaching for the sun


You never once have judged me

When I choose a different path

Cause your eyes shine when I'm with you

And I always make you laugh


Your the first to scream for justice

When my sky is falling down

For you know there is a difference

Between wild and a clown


I'm the black sheep of the family

But still your heart I've won

As I measure all of my sucess

By being your Grandson

Samantha Jayne

The passion and the wonder
Shine in your eyes so blue
A spring tide born in rainbows
Pull me deeper into you
 
Our goodbyes feel like torture
As we kiss with painful frowns
I'd sooner die  in your arms
In your rainbow tide I'd drown
 
The hours pass like seconds
When you are next to me
Together we could walk through hell
Still heaven's all I'd see
 
I love it when it's late at night
We laugh and point at stars
Celestial smiles telling us
The world has became ours

I Don'T Want a Weekend Dad

You spot me in the Distance
Start jumping on the spot
For me the view is torture
As I'm waiting for the clock

The seconds take forever
The hands they seem to stop
One thousand thoughts of your smile
Between the tick and the tock

But then I see you running
And I know that it is time
My heart lifts with your laughter
As we hear the hours chime

Can I stay with you forever
With hope across your face
I don't want to live with Mummy
I don't like this place

You tell me all of the things
That make you feel sad
Please don't take me back on Sunday
I don't want a weekend Dad

Last First Kiss

Last night was just a glimse
Of heaven and it's shores
Already I know the truth
It's you my soul adores

A thousand questions spinning
As my soul waits to depart
Upon the voyage one more time
Discovering your heart

Guilded by new stars
To find paradise's key
Where I am stuck in you
And your tangled up in me

Stardust cast upon us
To give us our true wish
Whispering to our hearts


You've had your last first kiss

Careless Words

For years your soul's been weeping
Wondering lands so cold and and dark
searching for the pieces
Of an angels broken heart
Two careless words were spoken
Which tore your life apart
 
So running to your mother
To beg that it's not true
Five crying words from trembled lips
Do I belong to you
 
The world turned black
The sky fell in
For a girl so soft and meek
As she saw the first tear
Fall on her mothers cheek

The Two You's

Was it you that I fell for
Gave my soul right from the start
Or was it her that tricked me
Not considering my heart

Was it you that wanted children
Put our family on the map
Or was it her intention
To hold me in her trap

Do you know the other
That lives inside your head
Does it make you worry
With all the things she said

Which one did I marry
Support for all this time
Always saying sorry
And that blame was always mine


I hope that now we're over
You can leave that girl behind
So she can't hurt another
And only know the girl who's kind

Fly Jeans

You say can we go shopping
For what is my reply
some new jeans that my friend just bought
They make her look so fly

I say lets go, do you know the store
And please don't make me choose
Before we go I'm telling you we're not shopping for shoes

I take a slow, long deep breath
As we walk in the store
Dam your friend has rich tastes
My wallet's felt this pain before

You squeeze into the fly jeans
As you turn around and say
Does my bum look big in these babe
Now I should run away

Does my bum look big in these babe
Once again I hear you ask
No it don't my darling
It's the fat around your a--

Bohemian Embrace

It was my last night
Living by the sea
as you came walking towards me

A French Goddess
From all mens dreams
Would like to talk
Or so it seems

No word was spoke
You kissed my face
My lips, my neck
As we embraced

Our souls entwined
Through our desires
A Goddesses kiss
In a bar on fire

I can't forget your touch
Your face
In a sea of flames
Our Bohemian Embrace

That Moment

You smile

You lift your shoulders

You blink

You bite your lip

I sure I know your feelings

Can't let this moment slip


Is it all about the timing

Will cupid shoot his bow

Shall I taste your lips today

Or again let courage go


For I have faced some deamons

Fought men near twice my size

So why does fear fall upon me

When I look into your eyes


Is it because love plays this way

It starts as a cruel game

Where two souls need to open up

And say they feel the same

Just Call I'Ll Come

I crossed the mighty water
When I heard you call my name

Found you waiting at a castle
Where the Red Dragon breathes it's flames

In the cold wind, rain and thunder
You came running to my arms
Screaming take me away forever
They can't buy me with their charms

As I held you tightly
I asked where that we should go
Take me home to Bridge Town
On our white charger Vivaro

So we crossed the mighty water
Far from dragons, wind and rain
To the love of all your own Kin
Where the children know your name
