Without Him

 



Without Him sung by (Cousin E)  Elvis Presley





Without Him sung by my other cousin Mylon, who wrote the 
song at age 17
on  a tv show with other singers



Tired of Playing The Game







Waiting

Waiting for the ringing
Waiting for the call
Waiting for the door to open
The sound of your foot fall

Waiting for your whistle
The happy of your smile
Waiting for your body
To sit with me a while

Waiting for your sunshine
To take away my rain
Waiting for your healing
To take away my pain

Waiting, waiting, all I do
But you don't seem to care
Every time I look around
You are never there

So, in this state I find myself
Tell you what I aim to do
Check myself before I wreck myself
With all this waiting 'round on you

You know I've been real sweet to you
Always tried to treat you nice
But without maintaining, the hottest flame
Will eventually turn to ice

So before I go find other fire
To warm my chilly heart
Why didn't you tell me that this would end
Before it had a chance to start?

Whispers Be Damned






 Whispers Be Damned


Whispering in the shadows,

I know it's you

Head bent low so I can't see

The gleaming of your eyes,

The curve of your lips,

The impish smile they wear 

Only for me.


You walked away

When things were good,

When love was sweet,

Our yearning was immeasurable,

Our dreams meshed,

And making love was like

A never empty basket full of luscious ripe fruit.


Or maybe, it was me

I don't remember

But we parted

In the midst of paradise found,

Connections that had been made so complete,

And our mouths drinking thirstily

Of the wine of our sweet love.


Then the whispers began,

The jealous hearts

With pointed fingers

And untrue tales of guile

They spoke of deeds

We had not done

And beds we had not lain in.


And our two hearts

Were torn apart,

Ripped and ravished

By lust and lies

Savaged by the fiends and fools

Who could not stand

To see us smile.


But we were the fools

That believed the lies,

Swallowed the unsavory,

And listened to the lurid

While all the while,

Our souls warned us

To close our ears to slander.


No more whispers for us then 

On silken pillows,

No more laughter in the rain,

No more "I love you's" 

Just because

No more loving

In the night.


But there you stand

In the arms of darkness,

Wanting to hold me

But afraid to try

And here I stand on an empty sidewalk

Wanting to cry out

But afraid to cry.


I know you see me, pausing there

Feeling your form

With arms full of longing,

Kissing your lips

With mouth full of hungry,

Hesitation holds us back,

Fear binds us with velvet ropes.


And then you say my name

In a whisper that becomes a shout,

A shout that becomes a torrent, a torrent that becomes a river,

And a river that becomes an ocean

Stepping out of the shadows, you pull me into your arms, 

Not caring who sees, not fearing who hears,

Once more, connected...........

And  whispers be damned.
