Memories

And I remember she was my only warm. December the one the amnesia could remember the one who could defy laws of gravity I don't know why I'd forget her these are my memories
I recall She was the one who gave it all I was so unworthy what a look of awe I would give her she changed my world from bitter to better. These are my memories
It gives me chills thinking when we sat and daffodils laughing together rolling up and down the hills forever. falling in to love I never get enough these are my memories
I don't know why she'd ever come back to me I don't know why I let her go oh no I only pray that she will return one day until then I will until then I will remember
And I remember the club in which I sought to be a member daydreaming of a dream in which I have the pleasure of sitting adjacent even just with that I'd be complacent these are my memories
And I recall summer was my countdown until fall maybe this would be my year maybe she would call maybe she would fall as I passed around the hall catch her in my arms her hero standing tall
I get butterflies running diving in her thunder eyes striking livelier than lightning descended from a Viking she has that warrior spirit I miss it oh so dearly these are my memories
I don't know why she'd ever come back to me I don't know why i let her go oh no. I only pray that she will return one day until then I can't I can't.
Remember the one I left you for. My past was so much better than the one I'm looking towards. I would have given all that I could afford but a whole lot of lust is so hard to ignore.
And I can't recall the reason for the distance that came in and out like seasons we would constantly change life-and-death love many nights it kept me up. thinking in between the shadows that separate us
and these memories these darnded memories stick around in the dark inflicting me like treachery the very things that keep me attached to my darnded past they won't seem to pass and it kills me

SomeoneLikeYou
i want to know if you,
told me the truth when you told me you loved me too
and I'm holding on to you,
even though you told me to go and find someone new
someone like you,
do you remember the letter i sent with the yes or no check box that meant
i wanted you to be with me as i went to another galaxy in a sea of things
that remain free,
or how bout them flowers i delivered, now they sit here with the message return to sender, and I'm taunted by the smell and the black of their shadow figure, i put em right next to our elementary picture
and my jacket retains smell, i sit all alone in the dark to ashamed to yell
i really wanna try but think that I'm gonna fail
i really wanna talk but i might let out a wail
i really wanna walk but I'm scared cuz I'm by myself
floating out to sea on a ship without a sail
swimming upstream on a boat without a paddle
I'm fighting a losing battle cuz death is sure to prevail
i just wanna know if you,
told me the truth when u told me u loved me too
and I'm holding on to you,
even though you told me to go and find someone new
someone like you
as if that was possible , if i do, I'm sure that the girl is just an optical
illusion, worsening confusion letting go of you is against my constitutional rights
so I'm letting go tonight, and I'm falling into the wind
i'd rather hit the concrete then fall again into sin
i'll just pass her a note to let her know its a no
i'll be on my own a loner so determined to blow
and you, well you can take my fancy
or you can compliment me and my dancing
I'm not sure what you want out this here friendship
maybe you can teach me to talk in spanish
its hard to be with you and still not mention
everything we had i learned to use discretion
i also learned a lot to love someone new
maybe someone who was almost nothing like you and
i just wanna let you know
the memories may last but the hurt has got to go
so i'll be walking down this road,
of life without you but maybe not alone
*Didn't make the cut*
someone like you
is so hard to find
if i could redefine the meaning of decline
i would change it to accept and not accept less
than a yes from a queen in a dress so fresh
and i would play it cool for the camera
and i would say a few things standing up
and then on one knee, ask you to marry me

LetUsDance.
let us dance like the universe.
never ending and infinitely pleasing to the undiscovered senses that you make me feel, the places we have not yet been, but that i know are real.
be my universe and provide me with everlasting potential so that we never get tired and so that our dance stays sensual.
let us dance.
let us dance like the moon.
as we dance across the floor, our own world. stars of your eyes and a moon of your smile. lets illuminate the night with our glowing style.
but do me one better and never leave too soon, be my sun so when you leave, you send me hope through the moon.
let us dance.
let us dance like the wind,
so smooth, yet forceful, never lacking presence or even the essence of itself.
as a matter of fact, why don't you be my wind. **surround me. softly caress my skin as you dance around me.
let us dance.
let us dance like water.
powerful in its motion, rhythmic in its step. let us drown in the slow beat of this song we have kept.
come to think of it, I almost drowned in your eyes, so be my water and give me life.
let us dance.
let us dance like fire.
bringing back memories of the camp fire where we met. i made you a smore **and you wanted more, but not more of the chocolate marshmallow graham crackers, more of me. we both had this burning sensation to engulf each other.
**be my fire baby, hold me close and keep me warm as we dance in the night in the midst of war.
let us dance.
let us dance like we do.
longer than music plays, longer than today, giving a new meaning to dancing the night away. let's dance until we can no longer stand without the use of a crutch, and when that time comes lets wobble together and fall in each other the way we fell in love and knew that there would never be another that could dance the way me and you do,
so let's dance for forever, lets dance in the wind, lets dance everyday to ignite love again.
let the moon be our disco ball and the universe our song. let the waters rise as we dance all night long.
lets us dance together. lets out-dance the rest and know that our dance is the best dance yet.

slippery when wet the floor is out to get
me and the girl of my dreams i've yet to meet
watching, her pass the time time stopping
elegantly sitting with her left knee crossing
the right. waiting for the time in which to step
forward as i move awkward in my vest
**deaf, i only hear the beating of her breath
**blind i only see the heart beneath her breast
i can only feel the pressure time is moving faster
as i press her closer growing older
the space around her body careful not to mold her
the sky above her is opening angels singing so hopefully
the time is now, and i approach her with her frown
and i plan to turn it upside left backwards and right
take her on a train tonight, we can go to Germany
france paris or Hungary wherever she would like
but first things first, i have to make a move,
and you know, it has to be smooth
otherwise, she'll probably pick some other guy
but she sings so beautifully like
and then she stops
so i proceed on the journey in trying to catch a vibe
similar to frank when he sang strangers in the night
the band is, playing music too bland its
destroying all my chances at making any advances
i resolve to face the problem which i cannot solve
how to face the woman of my dreams with holey socks
Holy God, send a sign of if she will or not
fall for me. cuz if she will we're falling hard
together then out of nowhere i feel a change in air
i hear the universe whispering in my ear
"Jacob, the time has now arrived, go look her in her eye,
the one behind her hair she tries to hide.
and when you do then you will find,
the window to her soul and you can know her in due time"
so i do and the eye is black
her boyfriend beat her earlier then left her in the back
of the crowd where i found a gem.
she said her name was Jen.
she said she prayed for God to send a man, and here i am. i said amen
lets have a dance, and then she laughed the first smile she cracked all night
we had a blast. from then on no looking back
and i ain't tryna spit game no more
I'm just tryna help a queen live dreams galore
her skin so smooth like jazz
so we step forward with this new slow dance
it went on and on and on,
from sunrise to sunset to dawn.
and it went on and on and on and on…..

iWish
i remember when we first sat down on the bench. it was love at first sight i have to admit. i thought you were the one for me. we just clicked. everything was going good, at least in the moment.
we spent everyday talking on the phone it brought us closer than a super sonic cone on a stick. i loved the way you smiled at me it would send the butterflies in my stomach up for a spin fluttering.
my upper lip stood still, you wondering what i was gonna say but you were just so stunning then. i left my mouth open letting all the drool run from it. felt my cool heating. thought our cookie was crumbling
but little did i know, that was just the beginning of the rest of my life. didn't know you'd be in it. but not all the way from beginning to ending. i started the love but i just couldn't finish
and i wish i wish i wish i never met her. rustling my life like the wind with a feather but things just things just have to get better. she tried to walk away but i just wouldn't let her.
so now i'm like, "baby please! please come back! i really am sorry for the way i act. i know my methods of love were not practical. you're going back to school, and now
i'm missing you and you're missing in action too. the words i said will never be retractable. i messed up but now i'm coming back to you. lets work it out and you don't even have to pack a tool.
i'm running to your arms. i hope you accept me. coping with the fact that you'll maybe neglect me. but during the process i'll be busy perfecting every corner of my life so I'm not defected
and all i ask is this one last chance to talk, or maybe even dance. i'm standing right here just give me a glance. your eyes are the key to this lock romance."
but she said no…
and i wish i wish i wish i never met her, rustling my life like the wind with the feather but things just things just have to get better. she tried to walk away but i just wouldn't let her.
and i wish i wish i wish i never met her. if i could meet her again i promise i'd do it better. i did i did once upon a time forget her. she slipped away once but not again will i let her.
cuz she is she is so lovely and free, free to do anything. she chose to love me
**so i wish i wish i wish i never met her if i could meet her again i promise i'd do it better

i told her i'd never love another
and i would never take any advantage of her
i told her we were meant to be for sure
we would endure no matter the situation that could occur
he told me in his eye i was an apple
he said "i'd fight the world just to snatch you"
he told me he would die if that he had to
cuz love can win the war even when life can win a battle
**i told her we could rule and even conquer
**or i could be her knight in shining armor
**or i could be a father to a daughter
**or a son, one day proud of the people they become
he told me he would love me to the end
of time and then some more to redefine a human trend
the way that people hate and then they love and then they hate
is the pattern that he told me he would break
i don't wanna think back to now
and wonder what if i said some more
i don't wanna look back on how
i should have told you more
i told her i would take her on a journey
across the sky to sing along with all the birdies
**i told her we could even catch a star
**but i would rather catch a movie with the one close to my heart
he told me that he only needed me
and some money for my diamond wedding ring
i told him that some candy would be fine
but such a gentleman he poetically declined
she told me that she couldn't do without me
and she was incomplete until the day she found me
she told me she could lay in my arms
as i swayed her afar from any danger or harm
**i told him he was sweet to my belly
**butter to my toast peanut butter to my jelly
i told him that i love the way he sings
and that its just one of a billion things
i don't wanna think back to now
and wonder what if i did some more
i don't wanna look back on how
i should have loved you more
i told her that i cheated on her once
she said nothing and just stood there kinda stunned
i told her it was so along ago
but time never heals this type of hurting in your soul
i told her nothing but I'm sorry
it wont happen again and i wont go to no more parties.
but still she stood in total silence
i saw the pain drop like rain coming from her eyelids
i wondered what was going through her mind
the sound of nothing slowly killing me inside
and then she opened up her mouth
i thought it would be soft but then it turned into a shout
she said, "its been killing me for months
but its true i too also cheated on you once
too consumed with hiding ugly truths
i guess i never noticed that you were hiding it too"
i told her i would lead her like I'm lead
as a changed man who is following the Head
i told Father God should be the center
and if she sinned then i would love her and forgive her
he told me we could soon become one
in Christ so when i die part of me can live on
**i told him i would love him like a prince
**until he made me queen and we've been in love since
and we've been in love since
**Loves a long time and I'll love you every inch.

Don'tChange (favorite song off Rapn'Blues)
one hand on my heart, one hand on my pistol
shooting the stars hoping one might fall to earth and hit you
i want that kind of spark, i think we need it to survive, you and i
lust is fun but always ends up like mr bonnie and clyde
run at me then we collide, like falling stars at midnight
feel the rush then you decide if i'm worth half of your time
i want you to know I'm honest, that lovely heart i want it
**stick with me like lollipops in the hands of a child and shout i got it
that smile, don't change it
the way you act in crowds please don't change it
and that walk, girl don't change it
love me from bottom to top and never change it
your hair, don't change it
that way you care for others please don't change it
your funny please don't change it
the way you love me forever never change it
and the further we stroll, down a road unknown
hold my hand, i'll take good care, i'll take you where, you want to go
you know right over that hill, the land of love sits so concealed
close your eyes, then you can feel, the strength of trust begin to build
and as we grow older, the world will grow colder
a little bit of dust will set, but i would bet, the best is yet
to come, the sun will rise and i will pray till the end of time
to love you more, the more we date, and then one day when your hair turns gray so
that smile, don't change it
the way you act in crowds please don't change it
and that walk, girl don't change it
love me from bottom to top and never change it
your hair, don't change it
that way you care for others please don't change it
your funny. girl don't change it
the way you love me forever never change it
Don't change it cuz this is jus the start, this is just the start of a journey.

NocturnalBlues
Love has come over like a storm but the rain has just subsided.
your heart sways back and forth like the trees in the wind but i stay silent
let life be so free. don't try so hard let moon come out at night
and the night is still young I'm on a run
the day is gone but its going to come
the moon high, would you like
to travel, do you fly, do you want to ride on this gravel
or rather would you like to swim
across the blue sea to the steps of Beijing
ride a trolley to the nearest days in
pay for a night but we could really stay in
somewhere on the beach or we could float home
in a zone looking up at million stars all alone
no phone unknown to the rest of existence
except for a sea full of night time wishes
Love has come over like a storm but the rain has just subsided.
your heart sways back and forth like the trees in the wind but i stay silent
let life be so free. don't try so hard let moon come out at night
i know this lady is the one
cuz i've only loved once and the nights just begun
we landed on the shore close to new york
money kinda short but our loves couture
i know Europe is looking for a model
and i know your up for a game of spin the bottle
winner gets a face full of chocolate hershey kisses
and a dance in the rain in a dress with a stain
cuz there are no rules, its so true that love
shines much brighter when the moon comes up
i go higher inside of my mind
and my time is up when the sun is high
Love has come over like a storm but the rain has just subsided.
**your heart sways back and forth like the trees in the wind but i stay silent
let life be so free. don't try so hard let moon come out at night
the sun is high above my head. i felt the warmth down my cold neck
and once again i hold my dreams so they wont fall right through the seems
until the sun comes down to set, come out at night
And it was all a dream
but i can feel it.
no it was all a dream
but I can feel it. oh yeah momma I can feel it. From my toes all the way up to the ceiling I can feel it. It's a brand new kinda feeling. The kind that make u feel like u don't even need a milli.
Take a minute. Get ya feet wet bask in it.
**Why u so beautiful and still masking it?
Ms missy. U don't need to be so timid. If u don't take a chance then u really ain't living.
If u don't understand come with me we can visit the other side of town if u ain't too busy. We can chase stars we don't need doo hickys. We can get lost like a kid in candy city.
I can show u off to a people we discover.
**And to your little sister I can be a bigger brother.
You once believed in love but lost the notion of anything that had to do so let me help you rediscover that love.
Love is the music of life. And life without music just can't be right. Right? Yeah. So just sing all night. And I'll sing right back with all my might.
and it was all a dream
but i can feel it….right?
