You'Ve Been Gone Awhile

Baby, you’ve been gone awhile, but all that matters is you have returned

You approach me with a sad but pretty smile, and I know there is a lesson learned.

So, you want to start over anew and possibly begin a loving friendship?

I’m cool with that.  And if your love is true, then hop into my spaceship!

Because, I don’t mean to boast, but the love I give is not of this earth

My passion is genuine and purer than most; for I am like “Romeo”, rebirth!

So come, sit next to me, and if you like we can just conversate.

Into the night, we can recite some poetry, for you’re the kind of woman I appreciate!

I can’t help but just look at you, for you have no idea of your worth.

I know a woman’s value, and you can be my “Juliet” rebirth!

At the end of the tunnel there’s light that shines and there in the midst is me.

I hope I can awaken your appetite, for I’m giving you love, indefinitely!

So you’ve returned with a lesson learned, and you’ve had the time you need to heal.

Now, take my hand and I will take you to a wonderland in my bat mobile!

I see that my Couplets make you smile; that’s how it will always be.

And just because you’ve been gone awhile, don’t mean there is no you and me!!
