Won’t You Stay?










Darling, won’t you stay for awhile?






Your solemn posture drives me insane






So please, just fall into me for a moment






Endlessly I’ll listen as you explain






All your fears that menacingly taunt you






The dread that weighs your ankles down






The tears that burn the beauty away






From the face now displaying a frown.

















Close your eyes and feel the warmth






Of my hands, of my secure embrace






Relieve your world of hatred






And accept my arms as your peaceful place.






I promise if you stay you’ll feel no regret






And you’ll learn once again how to smile






I’ll love you forever, as long as you stay,






Darling, stay with me for awhile










 




















Brown Eyes










 










Brown eyes, brown eyes sing me a melody






Lift me to the heavens with your song






Infect my with the sensitivity found






In the depth of your eyes, where I belong













Brown eyes, brown eyes, fill my awaiting spirit






Lessen my cowardice, set me free






Open the door to spontaneous experiences






Help me reach the tallest mountain peak, sail across the sea













Brown eyes, brown eyes, calm my raging emotions






Hold my shaking body, slow my world down






For I, myself, am the slowest to anger






When I’m melting into your chocolate browns













Brown eyes, brown eyes, hold me delicately still






I’ll stop my cherishing never,






And I’ll endlessly whisper with complete sincerity:






“Brown eyes, I’ll love you forever.”

Bring me back to the perfect moment

When our star struck eyes first met

To each other, we were only beautiful strangers

And at that second, our destiny was set



Our whispers ran out into the night

As we followed the path of fallen stars

Nobody could take away the freedom we held

Or trap us behind hate-filled bars



Soft footsteps tapped against the sidewalk

Your gentle touch etched into my skin

You brought my soul up from its darkened grave

My worries became weightless, so thin



Warm summer air lifted my hair from my shoulders

Your eyes danced in their captivating hue

Our laughter like music filling the silence

And my dreams slowly coming true



Grasping happiness happened so easily

The night my heart was lifted by a faithful dove

You may not recall the moment, but I will forever hold onto

The breathlessness of falling in love
