The Quickening of the Heart

The Quickening of the Heart


Eyes open wide, but inside I’m still searching;
Gotta find a wife before the end of the road.
Driven all my life on these feet I’m still using;
Following the light that I keep in my soul.


When all is said and done I want you to paint my picture.
The story of a son, with champagne in his hand.
Lived my life way too long always being a loser;
I think it’s time I find my true loves master plan.


People speak in words; I want to be telepathic.
Understand their minds with just a single glance.
I want to know her and taste her magic.
I think it’s time for us to take our first dance.
