Because You Are You

I smile without a reason,
And wait for you without a plan.
No clock, no promise, just the thought of you—
Enough to make my heart stand.

I remember you in joy’s soft light,
When laughter fills the air.
But I miss you most in silence,
When I reach, and you’re not there.

You are not a moment, you are all the space between,
In every pause, in every scene.
No need for words, no need for proof—
Just the quiet truth:
I feel you, because you are you.

My Garden Flower

Since that bright and clear spring day I do remember
I have already known that I would not give up
To me you were the apple of my eye every night and day
You were to me an angel of God showing out of the mist
I have wished to ask your hand I wanted to say
My love is discret, guarded deep in my heart
I have wished to say I love my love, and done!
But I didn’t dare even when it was already too late
You are my world at dawn, my whole day
My world at night and my dream
You flow within my blood, spirit and heart
Sweet fragrance, my flower garden.
Since you went away my day is gloomy, long and boring
In vain do I want to forget and ignore,
Come back quickly, in your absence my world is desolated
My vocal cords have been silenced and my violin has stopped.
You are my world at dawn …

I Haven’t Changed

I haven’t changed
I am still that strange young man
who was singing love songs to you
who was inventing sundays for you
who was making you travel…
I haven’t changed
I am still that guy a little bit mad
who used to tell you about America
but he wasn’t rich enough
to take you to Corfu
And you haven’t changed either
still the same light perfume
still the same little smile
who said so much without actually saying a thing.
No, you haven’t changed either
I wanted to protect you
to look after you, to belong to you
I wanted to come back to you.

Where Do I Begin

Where do I beginTo tell the story of how great a love can beThe sweet love story that is older than the seaThe simple truth about the love she brings to meWhere do I start?

With her first helloShe gave a meaning to this empty world of mineThere’d never be another love another timeShe came into my life and made the living fine

She fills my heartShe fills my heart with very special thingsWith angel songs, with wild imaginingsShe fills my soul with so much loveThat anywhere I go, I’m never lonelyWith her along who could be lonely?I reach for her hand, it’s always there

How long does it lastCan love be measured by the hours in a dayI have no answers now, but this much I can sayI know I’ll need her until the stars all burn awayAnd she’ll be there

How long does it lastCan love be measured by the hours in a dayI have no answers now but this much I can sayI know I’ll need her ’til the stars all burn awayAnd she’ll be there

Your Beautiful Eyes

I remember
vividly those serene eyes,
shining bright,
emotion in them
Sparks my blood to rise

Thy teary eyes divine,
Speak with love and tenderness,
Eyes, a million stars in them
The picture of innocence.

 

Eyes seeking me –
glowing,
like that first dew
on the new viridescent blade of grass.

Your eyes my matinal star
Your eyes my middays sunshines,
your eyes my vespers twilight,
your eyes an oceanic depth,
your eyes my autumnal hues,
Your eyes wild jasmines
Fragrant at nights,
Like that sunflower
Gazing the afternoon sun.

Let the peacocks vauntingly dance,
let the nightingales melodiously sing,
let the flora and fauna flourish,
like spring in prosperity,
in felicitation,
LET ME ALWAYS
SEE
THROUGH YOUR EYES

 

Close To You

When days are grey and lonely
No loving arms to hold you
Then if you reach out your hand
Remember that I’m your friend
Whenever you’ve lost your way
I’ll be close to you always

Every time when you hear this song
There’s is love to be found
I’ll be your friend
Right till the end
If your heart is in pain
There’s no need to complain
You just whisper my name

 

One step, one far, one farther
Won’t take away its shoulder
If I will hold on to dreams
Life ain’t always what it seems
When you need some helping hand
I’ll be close to you

 

You look like you love me

Well, I saw him walk in, with his cowboy hat
And I thought to myself, I could use some of that
His boots like glass on a sawdust floor, huh
Had moves like nothing I’d ever seen before
So I walked right up, and I pulled him to the side
I handed that man a beer and looked him in the eyes
And I said “Baby, I think you’re gonna wanna hear this”
Then I told him

Excuse me
You look like you love me
You look like you want me to want you to come on home
And baby I don’t blame you
For looking me up and down across this room
I’m drunk and I’m ready to leavе
And you look like you love me

Magic

When I woke up late that morning
I couldn’t believe my eyes
It was tragic
Without a word of warning
You decided to disappear
As if by magic
I’ve tried to dream you back to me
But I knew it would never be

All you had to do was wave your wand
And I would come running
But was your love an act?
I thought we had an unbreakable bond
How wrong I was
But I still want you back
I’ve cried a thousand tears about you
Because I can’t believe we’re through

Would I see you again if I said ‘Abracadabra?’
If I threw my heart and all my love at ya
Would you catch it?
You used to be real, now you’re my illusion
I fell for every trick that you were using
But you were magic

I wish I could remember that first day

I wish I could remember that first day,
First hour, first moment of your meeting me,
If bright or dim the season, it might be
Summer or Winter for aught I can say;
So unrecorded did it slip away,
So blind was I to see and to foresee,
So dull to mark the budding of my tree
That would not blossom yet for many a May.
If only I could recollect it, such
A day of days! I let it come and go
As traceless as a thaw of bygone snow;
It seemed to mean so little, meant so much;
If only now I could recall that touch,
First touch of hand in hand – Did one but know!
