THE SEARCH
I’m searching for a new life
With fulfillment and success
To rid myself of bad ways
And improve on what I do best
I’m looking for the answers
To make myself a man
With so many questions
I need a good plan
Your love gives me confidence
Getting stronger every way
Your presence gives me the will
To face another day
I’ve found a few answers
But not all the ones I seek
With your love by my side
I’ll climb to the highest peak
I’ll be there if you need me
A rock on which to lean
I’ll give you all my love
And listen to your dream
With each other to depend on
In the bad times and the good
We will live a full life
The way I know we should!
ASLEEP
You spoil me with your love so deep
As I’m thinking while you’re asleep
The peacefulness as you lay there
Your perfume still lingering in the air
The toss and turn of your head
As you sleep in our bed
With your lovely blonde hair spread across my chest
I wish I could keep watching you rest
But the sun is starting to rise
And it’s bringing the early bird’s cry
It’s time to wake and greet the day
But that doesn’t mean that in bed we can’t stay!
LAST NIGHT
Looking at you sleeping in the morning light
Thinking of what we did last night
The candlelight dinner with some wine
I’m glad you’re mine, all mine
The way we made love to one another
I know that there is no other
The feeling I get when I’m around you
It’s never the same, always new
And the gentleness of your touch
It’s a wonder I love you so much!
LAST NIGHT II
Last night you took away my breath
And I still haven’t found it, yet
The sight of you was so stunning
I would’ve given up a lot of money
Just to make that picture last
So I could be reminded of the past
But the loving that you gave me
Will always be with me, you see
For nothing can replace the memory I now hold
I’ll remember, even when I grow old!
LAST NIGHT III
Sitting in the dawn’s early light
Thinking back to last night
Her kisses were sweeter than wine
Just as
