Inspired by You

{With the help of Melissa Etheridge}

In front of 20 strangers, I will kiss you.
I want to be your just a little more.
I want to be your hand to hold.
Here you can rest your troubled mind.

"I am watching you sleep
I want to swallow the moon
Give a smile back to you
Light your way
Tell the Angels they'll just have to wait

'Cause I wanna stay here in this moment
Can I quietly slip into you
You and I can stay here in this moment
Let the world fade away,
I just want to stay with you

I am watching you breathe
I am pulled into you
As you smash into me
Oh I want to give you the stars
All that I can hold in my arms
Placing them where you lay
Tell the Angles they'll just have to wait

With my hand on your skin we can slowly begin, I am free
Now the heavens have less cause I've found the best and I won't let them take you away
Tell the angels they'll just have to wait...

I wanna stay here in this moment
Make the earth stand impossibly still
Disappear in your kiss,
Let the world fade away,
I just want to stay with you
With you"

I want to be your fearless love.
I will hold you now.
No need to fear the end.
Live your life,
Peruse your happiness,
And don't settle for anything less.

'Cause
"I would dial the numbers
Just to listen to your breath
I would stand inside my hell
And hold the hand of death
You don't know how far I'd go
To ease this precious ache
You don't know how much I'd give
Or how much I can take
Just to reach you"

Just You and I

When we’re together
Just you and I
It rains from the Sun and
Laughter of small children
Blows in the Wind
Rainbows shoot down from the sky
And the air never felt so new

Any place we are
Feels like a playground
Sitting all alone
In our private little field
Any direction we go
Is in our own world
Imagination of our hearts

There is no need to fear
Catching a cold
For the rain never felt sweeter
Than when it falls softly down
Onto our connected souls
The only blanket we need
Is in our eyes

When we’re together
Just you and I
It rains from the Sun and
Laughter of small children
Blows in the Wind
I feel invincible
And think of this song

When we’re together
Just you and I
It rains from the Sun and
Laughter of small children
Blows in the Wind

Babbling Again

I feel like writing
But I don't know what
I feel like I'm missing something
But maybe I'm not
How about we fast forward to sleep
And start anew
Maybe refreshed and rested
We will wake happy and healthy
And I can run on all cylinders
Maybe I am right
And soon it comes
That could explain all the weirdness
That I have been feeling
...
I know what
I feel like singing
But now is not the time
Maybe sometime soon
I will sing something for you
I don't normally do such things
But you make me want to
Want to bare my pipes
It's a very odd thing
Few have ever heard
It's rare that I feel
Like the sound is worth sharing
But I guess that's further proof
Love really does
Make us do crazy things

Changes

You have changed.
You are not the same.
You should not expect
Things to ever be
The way they were.
I do not think
That our relationship
Will ever be much more
Than it is now,
Especially as much
As you have hurt me.
I've moved on.
As should you.

The Tip of The Tongue

There are words on the tip of my tongue.
A long list of them, just waiting to fly.
But at this very moment I can't grab any of them to speak.
It's like all they want to do is flow into you.
With you miles away, it is hard to arrange,
A way for them to move in the way that they wish.
Right now the only ones I can find,
Tear away and sacrifice to this text...
Are:
"I Really, Really, Really like you...
And in a more than like kind of way."

Like Crazy

I wonder if you were serious
When you questioned
Whether I would still be there
When you got back or not.
...
Do you realize
That I can't stand
The thought of
Not being there?
...
I miss you like crazy.
I want to hug you like crazy.
I want to kiss you like crazy.
I want to love on you like crazy.
...
You're going to have to deal
With how much I like you
And how much I plan
To be there for you.

You Are My Hero

I've decided. I often tell you that you are the most amazing person I have ever had the privilege and honor to get to know. And don't get me wrong, you really are. But you are more than that. You are my hero. You are the strongest, kindest, most gentle, loving, caring, passionate, compassionate, beautiful, Christian person on this Earth.

You take care of anyone who will let you, and are willing to be there for anyone and everyone that need you. You manage to be surrounded by so many people that are completely stuck in their ways and still find your own path; using their help when it works, and politely adjusting around them when it doesn't.

You show people a care and respect that they may never understand and should be sorry to ever lose. You will try so hard to do for them until it literally starts to pain you inside. And when you love, it is such an unconditional love. One that the entire world could and should learn from.

In every step and breath you take, I can see Christ. The Lord shines through even your sillier and crazier moments, as if reminding those around you that it is okay to have a little fun. The light is even brighter in your moments of passion and care; so much so that everyone with their eyes open is in awe. Who you are is a young Christian woman, with a lot to learn and so many people to teach.

You really are completely amazing. .... You are my hero.

Baby Fall - Clay Walker

"Hold up there you go again
Puttin' on that smile again
Even though I know you've had a bad day
Doin' this and doin' that
Always puttin' yourself last
A whole lotta give and not enough take

But you can only be strong so long before you break

So fall go on and fall apart
Fall into these arms of mine
I'll catch you every time you fall
Go on and lose it all
Every doubt, every fear, every worry, every tear
I'm right here
Baby fall

Forget about the world tonight
All that's wrong and all that's right
Lay your head on my shoulder, let it fade away

And if you wanna let go baby it's okay

Fall go on and fall apart
Fall into these arms of mine
I'll catch you every time you fall
Go on and lose it all
Every doubt, every fear, every worry, every tear
I'm right here
Baby fall

Hold on hold on hold on to me...

Fall go on and fall apart
Fall into these arms of mine
I'll catch you every time you fall
Go on and lose it all
Every doubt, every fear, every worry, every tear
I'm right here
Baby fall"

I Will

These thoughts are a little more intense
Than I aim for them to be;
I am trying so hard to stay planted
That it makes me even more unsure
As to what dreams of these are true.

I want so badly right this moment
To let those words slip to you
But I do feel that they will be misunderstood
Or that if they are understood
That it will hurt you
In an unpredictable way.

It is hardest now
As all I want to do
Is to go to you
Yank you into my lap
And take it all away.

You will be alright
I know.
But that doesn't stop me
From wanting to save and protect
You from everything
Bad in this World.

I will quickly make
My way to you
In only a heart beat
If you or my gut
Say that it shall be so

These thoughts are a little more intense
Than I imagined they would get;
I am trying so hard to JUST know
And it is hard to not tell you
As to what dreams of these are true.
