TAKE CARE OF ME

Take Care of Me

Take care of me, baby

I'm your lover girl

I'm the one you that dream of

There in your distant world.

Take care of me, baby

I'm your sweetest thought

I'm the one that brings comfort

When your plans come to naught.

Take care of me, baby

Hold me in your arms

Show me how you want me

Thrill me with your charms.

Take care of me, baby

Make my senses reel

Kiss me like you're dying

And I'm all you want to feel.

Take care of me, boy

And I'll take care of you

Show you all the things you've missed

There beyond the blue.

Take care of me, baby

For I've been a lonely girl

Needing something I couldn't find

Here in this lonely world.

Take care of me, love

Forbid my eyes to cry

Open up your heart to me

And I'll teach you how to fly.

Take care of me, baby

I need a gentle hand

I need a warm and tender touch

From a good hard loving man.

Take care of me, baby

I need you here, right now

And if you've never learned to care

Then I will teach you how.

It's not so hard a job, you see

I do not ask for much

Just a kiss that lasts for hours

Just an electric touch.

Just undress me with your eyes

And clothe me with yourself

Love me like a hurricane

Till you have nothing left.

Then I'll rock you like a baby

And spoil you like a child

Let you dream up new fantasies

And allow you to run wild.

For you and I are much the same

And no one else has ever cared

For us the way we need them to

No one else has dared.

For they saw the wildness in our eyes

That they could never tame

They ran away from passion's fire

That fire that has a name.

And it's your name and it's my name

And it longs to hear the voice

That can call it like it needs to be called

As though it had no choice.

Take care of me, baby

Make your heart my home

I'll be your fire, your one desire

And I'll care for you alone.

I'll Take Care of You

ARE YOU AFRAID?

The Last Butterfly

by

Wodkah

Are You Afraid?

Are you afraid? she asked of me

But I answered not her query

For I was much, so much afraid

But thrilled and much and very.

So long I'd waited for her call

So long I'd dreamed of this

Waiting for her promises

Waiting for her kiss.

And dreamless nights had turned me back

When no dream could be found

And I had wandered far and long

On wearied feet and ground.

Waiting on her special isle

Beyond the field of flowers

I sought her every tear-stained night

And waited many hours.

Until my heart had given up

And I turned myself away

To leave that place, with saddened face

And then I heard her say.........

My love, where goeth thou this night?

Why hast thou lost thy dream?

I've watched thee, lo, these many moons

Hidden by the stream.

I made a path of roses

I sang a lover's song

I lit for you a shining light

I waited all night long.

But you looked in all the wrong places

You heard not my sweetened tune

Your tears put out the candle's glow

And your darkness hid the moon.

Come here, beloved, come to me

Rest your weary head

I'll tell you tales to make you well

Of living things and dead.

See how my dark eyes shine for you?

See how my sweet lips smile?

I am a mystery, this is true

But in me, you'll find no guile.

I feel your heart like a thousand drums

Press against my own

I feel your blood rush through that heart

Like it's racing to get home.

Shh!!! Don't speak, don't say a thing!

There's time enough for words

I only want this sweet communion

That our two hearts have heard.

I know you've searched a long long time

And I have evaded you

But I had to prove unto myself

That you, my love, were true.

I'm not like other maidens

Who tease and employ tears

For if you make me weep, my love

I simply disappear.

And all you'll see is a fading glimpse

Or a shadow of my smile

You may hear a snippet of my song

And in dreams, hold me a while.

But not for long and not always

Will your eyes behold my face

For the shadows will take me if I cry

To a dark and dream-less place.

Until my heart is healed and whole

And my soul is once more well

For up till now, no man has learned

To break this cursed spell.

Are you the One, my sweet, sweet man?

The man to set me free?

For if you're not, turn now and run

And let this maiden be.

For if you're notturn now and run

Amd let this maiden be.......

I Will Always Love You

FIGURING THINGS OUT and WildFire, the song of my childhood

  Wildfire
by Michael Martin Murphy

Figuring Things Out


I don't know why the song "Wildfire" 
always touched something
deep inside my soul
It made me think of myself
and I always wondered who had written my story
Cause nobody knew me
Listening to the song,
I saw myself riding that pony, WildFire
and
dying in the winter
like I'd been born

I had my own pony named FireBird
who ran like the wind
and was colored bright red and white
He was my best friend, my only friend
And when I rode on his back
I believed I could fly

I was a lonely child
Talking to owls and animals
Like people
and thinking I was going to die
still a child
Because
I didn't want to live
to be an adult
If life as it was
Would continue to be
Life as it was

Wildfire was the fantasy
and
FireBird was the real
but as for me
I've never known.......
if I was real or not

HOLD ME FOR A WHILE

Just Let Me Hold You

by Josh Krajcik

Hold Me For A While

I am a full grown woman

And I can make it on my own

I've spent most of my life that way

A warrior, aloof, alone.

But what is life if no one needs you?

 And you don't need anyone?

Then this life has lost it's meaning

And there's no room for love or fun.

You have to let your guard down

Let someone in your heart

Eventually or you will see

Your book end before it starts.

You have to make the decision

To protect yourself or risk

Love breaking your heart by loving

Or from the love you made it miss.

Either way, at the end of the day

Whether woman, man or child

We all need the arms of others

To just hold us for a while.

I'd rather hurt by losing

Than never giving it a try

Even when your every Hello

Is followed by Goodbye.

If needing love is weakness

Then let my weakness be

I'll be the warrior tomorrow, love

If tonight, you'll just hold me.

And when it comes your time to hurt

My love will lift you high

Bare my strengthened warrior's shoulder

As a place for you to cry.

One alone is not very strong

But two entwined can be

And a three-fold cord cannot be broken

When it's you and God and me.

You may think that I am foolish

When I reveal my soul to view

But I trust you with my weaknesses

As I do the same for you.

We were not created to be alone

But to need what we don't possess

From others who need what we can give

And to those, should gladly bless.

Tomorrow, I may be a lion again

A formidable foe to fight

But I just need to know that I can let go

Here in your arms tonight.

DESPERATE CHARACTERS

start music now

Desperate Characters

Desperate characters

we dance in the dark

trying to capture

that magic, that spark

Wining and dining

and yearning to feel

the way that we did once

when true love was real

Desperate characters

we probe with our eyes

and try to detect there

the truth and the lies

Hoping for something

that can't be replaced

by strangers and others

that time has erased

Desperate characters

we give it a whirl

out there on the floor

the ballroom of the world

Of loving and losing

and losing some more

two ships without anchors

that have crashed on the shore

Still looking for magic

and longing for home

cause a house is just shelter

when you live alone

Desperate characters

trying so to be brave

holding onto a moment

that the heart cannot save

Then the music, it stops now

and the bright lights come on

in the dark, I was hopeful

but I'm leaving alone.
