Obsession (An Oldie From Voo's Vault)
Obsession
When I see your eyes
I lose my mind, I lose my balance
And I go tumbling down
Down into the deep, dark warmness of your soul.
When I see your mouth, I feel an overwhelming hunger
A thirst for the dew of your lips
A desire to be devoured by the one thing
That I cannot live without which is you.
When I feel your nearness, I cannot breathe, I cannot think
I can only feel and feeling you
Is all that sustains me, brings me to life
For life without you is not even existing.
Let us dance the dance of love
Let us eat the fruit of love
Hold me in your hands
And feel my heart.
Hear me speak without words,
See without eyes, love without reason
I am yours as surely
As the birds believe the sky is theirs,
I am yours as surely
As the fishes think they own the sea
If I am deceived then it's because I wish to be
I am blind with my eyes wide open.
Loving you, I believe myself to be immortal
Loving you, I think my love to be indestructible
Yet every day that you're not here
I am destroyed and slowly dying.
I feel like a dry and arid desert
Come, pour your love out on me
And I will blossom and flourish
Like a garden in your care.
I love you. I want you. I need you as air
Let me fall into your eyes
And tumble there forever
On and on, over and over
Forever and ever, falling in love.

Sometime in the past
One Last Sweet Time (Oldies from Voo's Vault)
One Last Sweet Time
on the edge of a dream at the edge of the dawn
not stirred enough to wake
I saw you walk into my view
and there did my breath take
from behind a veil of soft chiffon
you stepped into the light
and oh, my cries as oh, my eyes
beheld that wondrous sight!
in golden glow you stood as though
in Heaven's spotlight stood
and smiled that smile that only you
could smile at me and would
I reached my hand to touch your face
but your face touched not my hand
it seemed you dwelt a thousand miles
away in another land
your eyes held mine in timeless time
and I looked at you and yearned
I tried to kiss those lips I love
but my kiss was not returned
a ghostly shadow pulled you back
and I tried to make you stay
but you faded as you told me you
did not want to go away
I held onto the dream till I
could not hold it any longer
and day was tapping at my door
and sun was growing stronger
I rose to open up the shades
and let the morning in
when came a knocking loud and long
two military men
in uniforms so starched and neat
with voices sad in tone
we're sorry to inform you of this news...
but the one you love is... gone
all day I sat there in the silence
looking for reason and rhyme
and finally, grateful that God let me
see you one last sweet time.
