Listen To the Warmth
"it happens just because we need to want, and to be wanted too...when love is here
or gone to lie down in the darkness and...listen to the warm." - Rod McKuen
I feel it deep in my soul; the warmth of our love.
When we met, two lonely hearts, became one ...
sad, it was not forever....
Nevermore, will I feel your sweet lips upon mine, nevermore will I feel your
sweet embrace. You lie down in the darkness, now my dear, yet I love you
still. My tears fall on your tomb, oh can you feel the warmth of my sad heart?
In dreams, I call you, come my love, I want to hold you to my heart tonight
and feel you caress my raven hair. Whisper how much you love me, I need
to hear your voice, that deep melodic warmth till dawn, then fly away love.
I need to travel that long winding road to your tomb, I want to be with you
although you are gone, passion is warm still. This is a love eternal, oh wait for
me, darling, one day we will be united at those heavenly gates, wait for me.
I still recall that day we first met
...I was...dizzy
Your smile and voice held me hostage...
I lay my cheek upon your tomb and my soul is bleeding from my forever scar.
I asked you, please don't go, stay home with me,
we could have stayed sweetly tangled in the sheets.
You laughed at me and walked out into a snowstorm,
In my dream, I heard the crash and metal crumbling, and I knew.
Come darling, the moon is high in the sky tonight and I need to see your face
and feel your embrace. The warmth of your breath, and I want your sweet kiss.
I need to be with you until the dawn calls you back into the darkness ... my dear.
...forever is the warmth of our love~
