End of the day thought.

we breath the same air
we've known since we came to this place
and the stars have always been too far away
but you came along and showed me the world
through the smallest opening you could find
i felt your hand touching mine
now it is time to catch another day
of leaning against you in the shade
guiding my fingers through the lines on your palms
losing myself in the words of your songs
floating, hopelessly, in circles
landing on a soft bed of metaphors and rhymes
stretch in time, your hands promise me tonight
will be the best night of my life
you've made every night
the best night
and every dream wishes to be real
to feel the way you make me feel
a thumping heart out of control, it seems
you're the only one for me.

Trees

I can't say it's the weather
or the shade of the light painted on the walls
it's not the words I miss you
or the sound of hums I crawl
its the point you reach before sleep
and the point you find waking up
when a cup of coffee is peaceful
and time alone is wearing off
when i watch a tree dancing
to the sound that nature sings
it's the feeling of warmth from far away
an acoustic memory
i could wish you here right now
to sing my breathing dreams away
then find myself buried inside
a song i could never play
as you prance the word with fossil feet my dear
these notes I'll soon be vowed
the only song i want to sing
is the song that will be now.

Appalachian Trail

Its now a time when you decide
how to reach for the knob and open doors
Now i watch you vanish for a while
I hope you find what you are searching for
I will wait here drifting softly to sleep
until i feel your arms around me once more
when the wind picks up, when the heat cools down
i hope you find what you are searching for
The greatest reason for living at all
Is to conquer all you fear
as you find your way through valleys and trees
I conquer all of my fears here
To survive with out seeing your face 
wrapping my arms around your waist...
is the hardest thing I will face...
while you are gone, the city sleeps in my eyes
until you open my door
while you are walking those dreams
I hope you find what you are searching for
i will miss you.

Stone.

A stone could sit still and never know
until the holes begin to show
but we've made it a point to follow through
sticking with only the roads we are used to
Cut your hair, change your clothes
color your skin, pierce your nose
Fall in love and fall back out
You are moving fast but stuck about
the same old block you always knew
A stone in the city with the ignorant blues

I'd Like To Hold Your Hand In Mine

I'd like to sing you a song
If I could sing you next to me
If I could sing at all
I'd sing you to sleep
I'd like to open my eyes early
so I could wake you with a smooch
I'd like to hold your hand in mine
That's what I'd like to do
I'd like to be the one you dream of
the one you snuggle,
the one you hold
I'd like to tell you are wonderful
because you are wonderful
I'd like you to hear me singing
because the notes would all be true
I'd like to hold your hand in mine
that's what I'd like to do
If you could hear me now
would you consider sharing notes?
I'd like to hear you humming along
I'd like to feel you close
Maybe I'm a bit too open
but I wouldn't be if your weren't you
I'd like to hold your hand in mine
That's what I'd like to do
