It was the sunshine through the rain
That relieved the grief from the pain
Reminded me of a fresh tomorrow
While dealing with today's sorrow
Falling asleep to the sound of thunder . . .

There are a million little things I long to say
But your silence is all I hear on this fine day
It's funny how silence gets to be so loud
To myself, then, I say those things aloud

She was the type of girl who wanted it all
The perfect guy, the security of home
Instead what she got was the reality of life
Poverty stricken, wasn't wanted to be a wife
So . . .

The call I hear in the middle of the night
Was a call that came from above
And it was one that led me to the light
And it was the call that led me to love

How I long for another day
To see your face under the sun's rays
But alas that was not meant to be
Your memory is now all I can see
How I long to hear that voice
Hearing it . . .

Time lies beneath me Like a river running into the stream And has no real meaning Except to keep flowing anyway
I lie down beside time And wonder how to make it mine Somehow it just slips away Quietly . . .

I had a feeling I had been down this road before
And I refuse to go there again once more
For it lead me down a dangerous path
The tormentor and tormented feeling the wrath
I was hoping . . .

If I turned around would you still be there
Would your smile showed that you really cared
Could I see into your soul with your bright eyes
And distinguish what is the truth from the lies

What else could there have been
The passion, the pleasure, the sin
A relationship that was built on a rope
Pushed and pulled until it finally broke
The intimacy tied into the sweet pain . . .

I looked out the window and saw a blue sky
To deal with my shock of knowing you would die
To everyone else it was a bright sunny day
I was crushed, knowing things would never be okay
But I could . . .

You burn me with your kisses
Making me want to be your missus
And every time you smiled slyly
I knew what was ahead for me
Like a drug I couldn't get enough
I took it all . . .

I look in the mirror and analyze what I see
Everything lacking that is inside of me
That is what my inner voice said
Leaving what was good inside void and dead
The mirror so powerful, . . .

I look out the windows here at night
With the stars out so shiny and so bright
Feeling hopeful excitement for what could begin
A new story whispering to me to be written
The usual rituals . . .

I was walking down the street
Tripping over only my two feet
A sight I must have been for all to see
Clumsy, yes, is a characteristic of me
And then they wind took my hat away
In that . . .

Working hard every day
40 hours a week for a hard earned pay
Suddenly you're being told
Your jobs outsourced, told oh so cold.
No compensation at all
It's all handled now down in . . .

Wed go out often for a long drive
Talking about things that make us feel alive
With the windows rolled down
The wind in my hair being flown around
He'd talk about history and politics . . .

You blew me away
Listening to what I had to say
I only wanted validation
Being ignored is on vacation
You gave me support, before I never got
I smile at you to show that it means a lot

Not a fool anymore, experience made me wiser
Putting cement behind my heart so its not ripped out whole
My kindness needing to become somewhat of a . . .

Ask me no more reasons why
I lay in the dark and stiffle a cry
I long for something that isn't there
Missing that of which I am aware
There are somethings that cannot be
The truth to that . . .

How I could never put into words
All of the things that feeds the soul
It was easier to swallow the hurts
Than to admit a self, fractured and unwhole
I played by the rules, I played to win . . .
