Need to be Sure

She lets her guards down and he captured her heart,
He said that he loved her, but he don’t always act the part
He is sending her mixed signals, playing with her heart
she is not certain his motives are pure
She has been hurt before so this time she need to be sure.
When he smiles at her she want to believe him,
When he kisses her it feels so right she wants to give in
She wraps her arms around  him and pray ,
That  he will stand by her and never stray.
Her heart is so afraid, 
Will she regret these decisions she has made?

Sweet kisses in the moonlight,
His  arms holding her so tight,
She don’t want to let go,
She just want to know.
Does he really love her?
She has been hurt before
This time she needs to be sure.

Need to be Sure

She lets her guards down and he captured her heart,
He said that he loved her, but he don’t always act the part
He is sending her mixed signals, playing with her heart
she is not certain his motives are pure
She has been hurt before so this time she need to be sure.
When he smiles at her she want to believe him,
When he kisses her it feels so right she wants to give in
She wraps her arms around  him and pray ,
That  he will stand by her and never stray.
Her heart is so afraid, 
Will she regret these decisions she has made?

Sweet kisses in the moonlight,
His  arms holding her so tight,
She don’t want to let go,
She just want to know.
Does he really love her?
She has been hurt before
This time she needs to be sure.

Shattered

The lines have been crossed,
You said it was a mistake,
I say it’s your loss.
You had a choice to make,
You chose to throw this love away,
I could make mistakes too but I don’t,
because I love and respect you.
You say to forgive you,
I say it’s not that simple.
How many more mistakes will you make,
And how many more times will I have to forgive you?
The lines have been crossed,
Trust have gone out the window,
There is a hole in my heart that needs to be fixed,
A part of it has been broken,
And I wonder if it will ever mend.
A dream has been shattered,
Hopes went up in smokes,
Loyalty was important,
But for you it was just a joke.
The lines have been crossed,
And now where do we stand my friend?
When glass has been shattered,
It’s hard to put the pieces back together,
No matter how you try to mend it,
It will never be the same again.

Indecision

The years have passed by slowly but time has done little
to diminish the love she feels for him, undeserving though he is.
Unattended, gasping for water like a runner on a hot summer’s day,
So is her love, desperate for some attention from him.
Like a plant in the desert doing what it will to survive,
So is her love, weathering the storms, refusing to die.
Her heart had spoken, it said he was the one,
So she holds on to this dream refusing to believe,
that maybe her heart was wrong.

Her head tells her to give up and she is torn between the two,
Should she listen to what her heart is saying?
Or should her listen to her head?
Some higher force that she does not understand tells her,
that her heart is right.
Yet a little doubt persists and a small voice that she
cannot ignore whispers “What if your heart is wrong?”
She is left in a state of indecision, She has to choose
between the two.
Should she take the chance, go with her heart and pray her
head was wrong?
But what if she chooses and then finds out her head
was right all along?
The currents of love has caught her and left her stuck
on the boulder of indecision.

He Said She Said

He said she meant nothing it was just a one night stand,

She said she had been dating him all along,

He said she was just a mistake that should never have happened,

She said he said she was that part of his life that had been missing,

He said he was drunk, didn’t know what he was doing,

She said he said he told her she was the woman of his dreams,

He said she was crazy, he hardly knew her.

I am caught up in the middle of this he said, she said story.

And it doesn’t matter who is right or who is wrong,

Fact of the matter is, it never should have happened,

You see he was my lover and she was my best friend.

 

Goodbye

The sun is still shining, I can’t understand why,

My life has been shattered in the blink of an eye.

Sorrow engulfs me and I try not to cry.

He said it was over and this was goodbye.

If I can make it through today,

I know it will get better.

If I can just get through today,

Maybe it won’t hurt so much tomorrow.

I refuse to breakdown now, I have to be strong,

So I put on a brave smile and I bid him goodbye.

The sun is still shining and this time I understand why,

My life isn’t over just because I told him goodbye.

No Cure for Love

You whisper words of love in my ear,

You know just when to say the right words,

That I want to hear.

I try to tell myself that I don’t care,

But who am I fooling because I want you here.

Impossible to live with you,

But if you go what will I do?

Mr. Heart breaker, smooth talking lover,

Your kisses leave me weak,

When you touch me I crumble at your feet.

You have magic in your touch,

You leave me wanting you so much.

You are like drugs and I am hooked.

 

I’ve got to find me a rehab,

I am intoxicated with love,

I need a cure for this malady.

That is taking control of me.

I need to clear my head,

They say there is no cure for love,

No prescription medication,

What do I do?  There is no cure,

I’m in love.

 

Make me one promise

That you will be gentle with my heart’

Handle it with care boy,

Don’t you dare tear it apart.

I try to resist you,

But when you touch me I crumble,

There is no use pretending,

I am hopelessly in love with you.

Real Love

I may not have a big house
or a lot of money in the bank.
I might not have a fancy car,
but I’ve got lots of love for you boy.
I may not have the biggest boobs…
A lot of them are fake anyway,
but my love for you is real.
I don’t wear a lot of makeup,
and my hair is all mine,
cause I am the kind of girl,
who likes to keep it real.
So when you through chasing,
after artificial beauty,
just remember you have real love waiting,
and it was right here all along.

Dreams and Nightmares

You told me you loved me and I was the only one,
You told me you would cherish every memory that we made,
You told me I was the woman of your dreams,
No other could compare.
So why did your dream of us become my nightmare?
Why can’t I erase the vision of you making love to her?
Why do I keep reliving the nightmare of you,
Whispering I love you in her ears,
Telling her she was the love of your life.
Now I keep wondering if she is the love of your life,
Then who am I?

This Thing Call Love

There are some things in life,
That you have to do alone,
There are no books to help or guide you,
You have to do it on your own,
And there are no easy answers,
To the questions in your mind,
The confusion of emotions,
Which makes everything hard to define.

You try so hard to understand it,
But nothing makes much sense,
And no matter how smart you are,
You can’t prevent it happening.
I guess it’s how you deal with it,
Wherein the answer lies,
You have to take control of your emotions,
Sometimes you have to smother what you feel in order to get by,
And despite the fact that no doctor can help you,
And no medication can,
Sometimes in life you have to fight this thing called love.
