NEXT TIME
No longer shall I try forgetting you,
nor turning loose what you've become to me,
these are the things my heart can never do,
my getting over you can never be.
And so I go my way, but leave me here,
for you to think about, as time goes on,
as I will think of you, but disappear
into another place, but never gone.
I'll be with you in every day and night,
as you'll be part of all I ever do,
between each line of everything I write,
will be the truth of it, I still love you.
Next time life comes around for you and me,
I'll have you then, though now it cannot be.

LOVE IS WHAT I'M ABOUT
I can feel. I can touch.
I can reach to a star and much higher than God.
If it's odd I've been doing things you wonder about
I can tell you for certain it's what love is about.
You can see. You can hear.
All I am is someone who will disappear in God.
And the love I'll be leaving you is what I'm about
you will know all your life it's what my love is about.
Fairy tales. Silly songs.
It could be what you see is right where it belongs.
It's a story unfolding everyone dreams about
it's the song you are singing and what you sing about.
Go to sleep. You can dream.
If it seems to be right you will see me in God.
If it's odd what I'm saying, it's what I'm all about,
I can tell you for certain, love is what I'm about.
