Cynthia
I love you in my secret heart
I dance around the fires you start
I tell myself she's playing too
Looking for reasons to break the rules
I see the beauty of a woman's face
listen to your voice giving it grace
While secretly pacing looking for a place
Longing for favor without disgrace
As you move in closer to my flame
I wonder if your wondering our name
When we're alone and it's just us two
Sharing our feelings of being blue
Promising secretly never to hurt you
Wishing for the moment my dream come true
Building a tower high enough to reach heaven
Wondering if truth and kind words would sever
Telling myself as I get closer
Just a little while and it will be over
