NEVER BEEN THIS HIGH

Can you remember that day
You felt the future in the wind
Thinking “Once upon a time” 
It was only a dream back then
Girl, before I knew your name
And you hadn’t seen my face
I longed to be in your mornings 
Touching you..amazing grace

Whispers from your heart
Gently echo in my ear
Caressing your whole world
Love drives away all fear
Secrets that are yet untold
Passions from deep inside
Fingerprints from up above
Poetic wonder.. make me high

They say patience is a virtue
Etiquette to get from there to this 
Keep waiting, yes I’m chasing
That perfect ever after kiss
The night you’ll linger at my lips
Tease me with your kind smile
Golden locks and curves of bliss
Let’s take it slow, l’ll stay awhile

Whispers from your heart
Gently echo in my ear
Caressing your whole world
Love drives away all fear
Secrets that are yet untold
Passions from deep inside
Fingerprints from up above
Poetic wonder.. make me high

Cause It’s not too far to see
Curl around me, I’ll do it right
Feel that soft and tender touch
Yeah, from evening until the light
Oh, the silhouette of your beauty
Thoughts are dancing in my mind
Raindrop’s beat it’s so captivating
Romantic treasures to seek & find

Those whispers from your heart
Gently echo in my ear
Caressing your whole world
Love drives away all fear
Secrets.. that are yet untold
Passions.. from deep inside
Fingerprints.. from up above
Poetic wonder.. make me high
I’ve never been this high

Just being you.. you make me high!
I’ve never been this high

Arthur, thank you. Let me be completely transparent. I need a music man. I read notes and play the guitar but I need someone who can create (the thought of it is so appealing and yet so intimidating). I need a Master of music and sadly that isn't me. If God allows such a person into my life I think there would be magic.. just a happy thought.

James, you state it well, "the wonder of love".. who can comprehend its vastness. We invest a lifetime to conquer it, only to discover that like an iceberg the most of it is below the surface. Until we are in complete awe we have not even peeked below the water line!

Hey Andrea, thank you.. I love the thought of that line as well. When a kiss transcends the physical it's so special. When a kiss exceeds the emotional it's beyond incredible. But I believe in a perfect ever after kiss that touches more than another's lips and heart. There is a kiss that touches Heaven.. it's reserved for those who will fully commit to chase. Gosh, I want to run :)

Ha.. but thank you :) To love well one must master listening and that is something I try to work on every day. The world and everything in it is speaking to us through all of the senses. "In love" is two people who can, together.. listen through all their senses to all the world (words are optional).
