Premium Member It's Written All Over Your Face

- In the key of rock - Inspired by Glenn Hughes - Song in the title.

My, lady, when you walked out this time
I wondered if you were still mine
Something felt out of place 
It showed in your lovely face

Its faded in my mind
I am needing to unwind  
Were you hoping I was not wise?
It showed in your lovely eyes

Baby do I need to take cover?
Are you still my lover?
You aren’t good for me, not the way it should be.
It shows on your face to me.

Our love is gone
I have to dream to carry on
You don't treat me like you wanna be in my space.
It shows on your face

There's heaps of sorrow 
And feelings for tomorrow 
Cant be in yesterday
Its faith that keeps me going today

Not chasing you any more
I’ve shut the door
It is written
Twice bitten
 
It is written
Twice bitten
It is written in space
All over your face

Thanks for the memory
Its your lies I will see
The jealousy in place
Written all over your face

You are too blind to see 
You have a new destiny 
And I need love and peace 
Its time to give you release 

Right now

A Hope Memory Tribute Bob Hope

In our lives you were forever,
to make us cry, no never.
So many things that you did,
you made us all feel like a kid.
Every word you ever spoke,
somehow turned into a joke.
A special gift you had somehow,
I guess God must need it now.
He sent you to Angels above,
remember it's you we'll always love.
If it was loose, you would  tighten the rope,
after all you were Bob Hope.
We're all so grateful for all you gave,
the crazy ways you would behave.
So may I say from many,
   "Thanks for the Memory!"
