BETTER MAN

Glenn Hughes Poetry Contest - Robert James Liguori BETTER MAN (Hughes) : HUGHES TURNER PROJECT (2002) ------------------------------------------------------------------ When I see calm sky I feel your eyes When I gaze at the range of mountains I see how you stood by me at times Feeling gentle breeze I sigh your name As waves tease my feet I sense your smile I see you everywhere I tell you why I'm a better man now, I feel peace I have found my calling, I now know I Won't let go now, you complete me, My destiny. That is what I found I'm gonna tell you I found you are My calling. That is you and you alone I've never felt strong ever before I've dallied away, I think too long It's time I gather myself to ask Let me live to feel weather with you Now on, you are my destiny, you Make me better man, better than ever Life is gentle if you are with me A weed looks lovely with you by me I believe in fate, I am aware I no longer pretend I'll be free Don't let me down, you are my calling Take my hand, take me along from now on
