Turning Time

Turning Time

Can we turn back time to that rainy day?
When the bus broke and the sky was pouring down.
And my father was held up, so I waited with the crowd.Β 
This day filled with misery and failure!
The day I saw you for the first time.Β 
Something about seeing you felt important somehow.Β 
You just walked by, and caught my eye.Β 

Can we turn back time to that rainy day?
Make me look the other way.Β 
Or my father hurry or not let the bus break.Β 
Anything to change events of that day.Β 
If you hadn’t caught my eye that day,
Perhaps I wouldn’t love you this way.Β 
All it took was one look. And I’ll never be the same.Β 
So much pain could have been spared, so much joy unfelt;
If I hadn’t looked that way...

Sleepless...

Can't sleep tonight with all the stars whispering to my heart
We are the reason people believe...

When your fingers find my skin my soul awakes
A deep need from within consumes me at once

Touch my soul like only you do, let it soar...
