Shaken

 when there's nothing to see or hear

when all your clouds come together

they will stay

pouring out their  rain on all the misfortune you bear

and they are many

hanging on while you live your life

waiting to be shaken, folded and put away

as one angry moment in time

and all those clouds will drift away 

but your anger

will not, it will not fade

people say,: that anger should be put away

in the graveyard of your mind

and time

time will find a way to ease your aching mind

but be aware, it will always try to shake

and break away from

its shackles and rise up to haunt you again

so let your sanity come inside, it will strenghten

your weary soul and keep your mind open to an attack

of any kind and your counter attack will always be formidable

each and ev'rytime

as you learn to deal with it trying to survive

With me

wherever you go
wherever you are
I'll be there
you'll be there
waiting for me
waiting for it to happen
to bring us together
to go all the way
not to hesitate
yet never to hate

but keep it all in the heart
in the mind, in the soul
we were whole
nothing can take away
nothing can change the day
I met you, cherished you
envied you
for the beauty you had
all of it you shared
with me

with me
only with me
you shared
all you had
without regret
your soul lay bare
for me to care
and keep always
you never questioned me
you trusted me
you were a leaf
floating on the wind
carried to me
to find
to bring home
with me

and you stayed
never complained
never could I fail
in your eyes I was great
we had a lifelong date
I'm so glad for what we have
what we've got
seems to be enough for us
not to be blown away
not to float away
to another place
you stayed
found your tree agian
to celebrate
our union
that took place
and you stayed
never complained
you stayed
with me

It's all we have

I'm very at ease, always am
when darkness is in reach, gently
she is in the night, with you there
at my side

you don't say anything, nothing at all
you don't have to, I know it all, just
lying there with you in the depth of
the night

I know, very strongly, here's where I live
here's where I belong, you're allways there
with me to share, without any regrets

it's all we have

An ordinairy man

I'm an ordinairy man with choices
nothing in my ways is perculiar
it is all very ordinairy instead
and I can head into any direction ahead
so many choices, so many ways

and it's all sensational  in a way
'cause I take all the love away
in my extra ordinairy way

I have choices you don't have
I can choose anything I want
I'm an ordinairy man with choices
I don't intend to let them go

I chose to have ordinairy children
I chose to have an ordinairy wife
we have an extra ordinairy love
we live a very ordinairy life

we had an extra ordinairy divorce
I chose to live a solitary life
and the choices went out of sight
I let them go without a sigh

a reminder of the choice of time
a very ordinairy trail of light
an ordinairy life on the line
