Paul Anka

She said boyyy stopppp 
All that talk
Sounds like Greek mythology 
Baby baby please, I missed you
I’ve never walked on air but
When you put your head on my shoulder
It felt like I had accomplished everything I ever would in that moment
Put your head on my shoulder
Hold me in your arms baby
She put her head on my shoulder
At last Heaven is not just in my mind
Holding your sky but not for punishment
I've defeated my Titans 
Put your fear in the palm of my heart
Whisper in my ear, words I can hold dear 
Show me that you care 
With the silence your eyes bear  
I’m becoming well versed in us 
Seconds with you is the only time I’m placing 2nd 
Daddy taught me ladies first  
Put to rest all your worries in the hands of prayer
Then rest to my beats per minute
Until hours become ours with no regrets 
You in my arms not even amnesia could forget 
Put the heaviness of your world under the weight of my love 
Let it blanket you gently 
Forever isn’t meant to be shared unless it’s from God 
So excuse me as I show her off like tomorrow has evaporated 
Funny holding onto pain is easier than the risk of letting go
She exclaims don’t ever let go 
Holding her breath for words of affirmation
I’ll hold on for as long as love exists, forever is simply an assist 
Lovely how her darling can turn reality into a chapter of bliss 
I love turning the page so your head can memory foam to my chest 
Caress, my beard until I doze off, then you fall asleep
Feelings follow suit, as my hand gained a Queen 
And yeah shawty is a 10 
They can’t tell a King Jack, with this Ace up my sleeve 
Meaning anyone interrupting our peace will get royally flushed 
She should only wake up between REM cycles to steal a kiss
She already stole my heart so take it all 
Put your lips on mine, then copy and paste
Because seconds taste better sometimes
And I want everything other guys leftover 
Put your lips on my dreams until they can kiss you back
My pillow is not just in case it's the blueprint
Put you lips everywhere but on mine 
So I can memorize your petals brushing against my skin
Let go of everything that keeps you from holding us 
So I can love you like a paul anka song 
p.s. I just want to stay in the eternal sunshine of this spotless moment…
