I DIDN"T LOVE YOU THEN

I DIDN'T LOVE YOU THEN

I DIDN'T LOVE YOU THEN.........

WHEN THE SUN WAS WARM

AND SHINING ON YOUR FACE

MY HEART KEPT IT'S DISTANCE

EVEN THOUGH YOUR HAND HELD MINE

AND KEPT ME CLOSE THROUGH

PICNIC, SAND CASTLE AND 

SUDDEN THUNDERSTORM

NOR WHEN WE RAN FOR SHELTER

LAUGHING LIKE CHILDREN.

I DIDN'T LOVE YOU THEN

WHEN THE MOON

BATHED YOU IN HER SNOWY GLANCE

LIGHTING UP YOUR SOULFUL EYES

AS YOU LIT A CIRCLE OF CANDLES

AND ASKED ME TO DANCE

IN THE FOREST

WITH ONLY THE SONG THAT BURST

SPONTANEOUSLY FROM YOUR LIPS

FOR MUSIC.

I DIDN'T LOVE YOU THEN

AS I READ VOLUMES

OF YOUR LETTERS FILLED

WITH PROSE AND PASSION

PLEDGES OF UNDYING FOREVERNESS

AND PAIN.....

I COULD NOT...

I WOULD NOT...

AND I DON'T KNOW WHY

MY HEART WOULD ONLY BID ME RUN.

BUT TODAY IS A DAY I COULD NOT SEE

LIKE YESTERDAY WILL ALWAYS BE

THERE IN MY MIND

A MEMORY, CAPTURED, HELD IN HANDS

CLASPED SO TIGHTLY, THEY HURT

THE SAME HANDS THAT COULD NOT 

HOLD YOU TO MY UNFEELING HEART

BUT WATCHED YOU WALK AWAY

ALONE AND PUZZLED AT MY NONCHALANCE

I DIDN'T LOVE YOU THEN BUT.... I DO NOW.

MY LOVE, MY LOVE, MY EVER LOVE........

I DIDN'T LOVE YOU THEN BUT I DO NOW.

Dancing With Your Ghost

I love this song so much

  

no compromise

 no compromise   

                    

we found and lost one another before we met
and for the rest of our lives, we'll regret
what could have been, what should have been, it's true
and I will never know the joy of you.

we found a ground that we could share together
but found a ground that we could not share, ever
and in that finding lost what we had found
and said goodbye to that, our common ground.

we found a love that fairy tales speak of
and yet if love's withheld, then is it love?
Is love given in anger love that's true
and will I ever again know love like you?

we found the place that our hearts longed to live
but compromise of mind we could not give
we tossed the petals of the rose to wind
and turned our backs and began our search again.
