He flew in on a darkened night at first she was frightened by his sight A large bird with wings so wide But Oh to see him glide His heart of gold Thier legend unfolds She is his lady fair with the long flowing hair and he her Hawk soothed her when he talked the words would appear like music in her ears A few stolen moments in time Is that a crime? If it is she will do the time His words she savors like a sweet flavor His heart of gold his words are told On his wings ..they take flight on the blankets of darkness into the night although the love they cant profess she holds the moments close to her chest Close to her heart Vowing never to let them depart She is his lady fair To whom he shall always care The stolen moments in time His words she holds close to her bossom As the love they've stolen blossoms On the wings of the Hawk she shall fly From night ,till morning draws nigh ...................................................................... ....."Endless Flight".....

Before you I was alone and blue What real love was I didnt have a clue A steel wall I had built around my heart Somehow you knew the right words to take it apart You have lit a fire and now my heart burns with desire our lips meet and I taste your kisses so sweet But alas our love is forbidden So we must keep it hidden But the few precious moments we share shows how much we care And together we will walk in the rain as the gentle drops wash away our pains and reveal to you how much I love you and our hearts beat as one instead of two And someday our love will be free and not kept under lock and key and we will give our past a shove and we will be able to profess our love To show the world just what you mean to me and like the waves..we will drift upon the sea and like the children of the night we must not give up the fight My darling.....Everytime you see a dove Remember me.....Us...and our SECRET LOVE... ....................................................................... ....."Haunted by his memories"..... Haunted by his memories Tossing and turning like the stormy seas His voice so kind My love had me blind It was my heart He had torn apart Haunted by his memories he still holds the keys he tore down my defenses and now the walls are mere fences Haunted by his memories remembering the night we sailed the sea the wind blowing through my hair with him at my side .I didnt have a care Haunted by his memories remembering begging him please Our love has meant so much And I still feel his every touch Haunted by his memories Trying to turnn away from the sea trying to rebuild my life still only dreaming to be his wife Haunted by his memories I want to turn and flee My heart shouts NO! my mind says ,turn and go Haunted by his memories remembering how he'd hold me Sea's waves rise and fall Overhead I hear a lonesome call Haunted by his memories wading out into the sea the murky waters ,they becon to me "Come ..come..let ir be..alas you will finally be free" Haunted by his memories I step out into the sea no longer a prisoner of his love I now live up above........ ...................................................................... ....."Last Vow"..... As I stand looking out to sea It's his sprit that becons me As I stand looking around It is my tears hitting the ground We had planned together to grow old And now my heart is so cold And from me you were taken away As the wind blows my body sways They sprinkled your ashes out to sea And with you went a part of me I only seem to stand and cry my body wants to die I want to be with you What am I to do With you I was so alive Without you I cannot survive Stepping off the edge I make you this final pledge as my body sinks to the seas floor WE will be together forever more..... ................................................................... ....."WHY?"..... You came back..But why? to see if I could still cry? I promised myself I would stand proud But with you Im in a cloud I put around me a mound and yet you crumbled it to the ground Your words they shaken me and I guess you still hold the key Are you playing another game? and do you really feel the same? I willed my soul to survive yet with you I am so alive In my heart I do a search While you stand tall upon your pearch Have you come back to do it again? are you my foe or my friend? Is it my heart you plan to share Or is it me you really love? .................................................................... ....."I was the one"..... I was the one who felt the pain and it was from my eyes tears fell like rain I was the one you left behind And I was the one who learned the world could be so cold and unkind I was the one who heard the slamming of the door And was me , whose knees hit the floor I was the one who decided to go on I am the one who suffers your presence now long gone I am the one who cannot sleep and yet I am the soul you chose to keep I am the one who looks out upon the sea and is my heart to which you still hold the key Release me ...quit making me cry just let me go and please say goodbye...........
