No More Tears In The Dark


(Written May 12, 2003.)


Life is a random act of love.
Thus it is never too late for secrets lost and found.
It is all I got until your love finds me.
An oasis feels like heaven to me as I imagine walking on water,
and lost in paradise in romantica while dreaming of you.
So play lady play while dreams come true.
As the closer I get to you,
you'll realize this is love,
so don't give up or surrender.
If there was ever a time it is now.
For the night is young and you are so beautiful,
everything I dreamed of and more than you'll ever know.
Here in my corner I see the look in your eyes and it keeps me loving you.
Even though it is my imagination,
for now this will have to do.
For hard times move on and themes from the other side become
prelude to dreams and the makings of you.
I feel like singing because tonight's the night.
Nice and easy of mystical perceptions and peaceful dreams.
There's nothing better than love's inspiration and happiness when we become one.
If this world were mine I'd never let you down.
I imagine loving you too much and having thoughts of you and then come running
back to you,
while reaching down inside a place deep in my heart.
All the time knowing and praying you're feeling the same way.
So come away with me and we'll make love under an African moon.
Here and now it would be simply so amazing.
The rush,
the power of love and silent symptoms unknown,
for only love shall be the sweetest taboo and the sweetest gift I could give to you.
My heart beats for you,
the nearness of you and all the things I imagine of you.
Love's silhouette once again shall prove that,
I love the one I'm with.
Now whisper in my ear because I can't wait till morning.
The songs of wings are a lady's songs,
of spirits past singing,
this woman's work is done and I've got to see you again.
In your arms again until the long day is over and once again,
I get to see you.
Just give me a reason to wake up and turn me on.
Turning it up your own kind of way.
I want to thank you and I wish you well for all these happy feelings.
You see,
I was one flight down from mission impossible.
A smooth operator who had broken hearts and in return,
my heart was broken with a slave song.
It is a crime when you love someone a lifetime and they only provide you
with a temporary night.
My house is not a home and for this reason,
I know why paradise and midnight dives,
are the kiss of life.
My life has changed and I've got to know if it's over now.
I don't want to be a fool and shoot the moon,
but I do want to cherish the day.
By your side I find no ordinary love,
no ordinary way.
I find Amazon nights,
September sonnets and daydreams of remembrance,
I turn on my Savior faire and it becomes the elixir of love lost,
love found and still never enough,
never too much for a love like ours.
The real thing it was,
love at first sight.
So stop to love,
not just any love,
but flow and let's roll on a magic carpet ride from east to west,
listening to the Nightingale.
For I am no longer the lone star or even a superstar,
and with that smile of yours no love is lost.
As long as I love to keep you in mind,
there will never,
ever be no more tears in the dark.
