Love letters #3
Hey baby,I wanna tell you something
Theres a plan running through my mind
Its all gonna begin with a sinister grin
And you wont mind when I grab you from behind
I'm gonna squeeze you tight and make you feel right
Put a smile on your face and make your heart race
When I turn out the lights,you better believe I just might
My heart was an empty place,until your love filled that voided space
Now theres nowhere else I wanna be,just here with you and me
My eyes on you and your eyes on me,two lovers living free
Theres so many things Ive wanted to say
But I haven't always had the words to speak
I often hold back,a little wary,maybe thought you wouldn't stay
For you my heart beats strong,but fear cripples me,makes my mind weak
Some days that old sun shines so bright on me
And others the skies are filled with clouds so menacing
Such a feeling is being in love,sometimes I feel like I'm going crazy
I start to write another poem,get halfway through and stop without finishing
So many thoughts,all at once,yelling for their chance to be cut loose
All about the way I love you,and the way our lives have come together
That Ive given up trying to sort them out,it really is no use
I'm just gonna sit and write until I clear my minds storm,find clearer weather
I think of the things we have been through and what lies ahead
And it all seems easy compared to the pain we've put each other through
I can see me coming home at the end of the day,laying beside you in bed
Wrapping my arms around your body and making love to you
As that morning sun comes up and you climb into bed
I look into your eyes and smile because you did it again
You made my life better without any words being said
You set my soul afire with just a touch of your skin
My heart starts to race and I cover it with your hand
Your eyes meet mine and you feel my hunger
I am convinced that you know what Ive got planned
You see the lightning in my eyes and know I want you to feel the thunder
I can hear your heart calling out for me
Even though its coming from your mouth
I look into your eyes and heaven is what I see
Right now my thirst is for something from further south
Maybe I am thinking a little dirty,but its something you'll enjoy
When the hours are flying by and my tongue is sticking out
And you're quenching the thirst of this good ole boy.....
