Is This Our Love Song

If I wrote a love song
And sent it on the wind,
Would you listen to the words
And know they were yours?
Would you let them pass by
Just a whisper on the breeze
Or would you take them to heart
And sing me a part?

If I came to you
Arms open wide,
Would you turn and run
Or stay by my side
For Love is the place
There's nowhere to hide.

If I cried lonely tears
And cast them out as dew,
Would you trod through them in morning
Knowing they were for you?
Would you try to dry them
With the heat of your light,
Caressing the rosebud with tender rays
'Til petals unfurl as night becomes day

If I gave you my lust
Tumultuous and deep
Would it be worthy to save
Raging on the ocean's waves?
Would it mean any more
Than a passing storm at sea,
Or would you wear a raincoat
So you don't soak in me?

If I came to you
Arms open wide,
Would you turn and run
Or stay by my side?
For Love is the place
There's nowhere to hide.

If I wrote a love song
And sent it on the wind,
Would you listen to the words
And know they were yours


(Tune floating in my head from one too many chick flicks)

Kp Nunez Date: 7/3/2015 6:09:00 AM This is indeed lovely, Jan. There's some kind of rhythm that I can follow even as I read it. Must result into an interesting record! There's a contest that used Kevin Kern's Pastel Reflections. Have you tried it? Login to Reply Jaycee Cervenka Date: 7/3/2015 6:58:00 AM Thanks Kim. I looked at Ken's contest when he first put it up, but have not seriously looked at it. I may do that today..Jan
