Testing The Waters

Still waters run deep.

I can tell that you want us to be alone
You’ve been waiting for someone to hold
It’d be such a waste to leave already
Cut the lights & lock the doors
I’m not going anywhere
Still got time & space to make love to your mind
Take your worries off & lay them aside
When I look at you I want to see nothing
There’s only you & me in this enticing equation
Just let my hands roam until they touch your soul
Your body is sweltering like a heat wave’s building deep inside
I know what you’re feeling

Set it free & let it loose on me
Come here, I can handle it, put me to the test

Close your eyes & let me inside
We’re gonna need all hands on deck while we ride this out
We’re succumbing to all our desires now that we’re alone
We don’t know what’s come over us, cus we don’t normally do this

Let your pretty red lips leave an impression on me
You can taste the passion in the air while our whispers fill the room
It’s so thick you’ll be swallowed up, as if you’d just fallen into quicksand
You should know that your touch gets me as hard as the Man of Steel
You better be prepared for me to go down under until one of us loses our breath
I can take you where you want to go
Just let your good taste control the flow
You’re as moist as a rain forest in May
I’m diving deep to see just how far you’ll go
Let me know when your volcano’s ready to blow

You know I like the way you move when I’ve got you on the floor
Come to me, our breathing is your favourite song

Open your eyes & look at the mess we’ve made
We’re gonna clean this up so we can do it all over again
We’re making up for all those nights we’ve lied awake & found love on our own
We don’t know what’s come over us, but we’re enjoying every last drop of it

We’re doing the right thing in all the wrong ways
I’m about to undo all that stress one kiss at a time
Where do I begin?
I guess I’m heading down
Down baby, hold on to me
Still waters run deep
Come here, come to me
Give in to me

Anything but Casual

This is anything but casual now.

In your eyes I see something I can’t control.
You’ve brought back a feeling that I used to know.
And to think that only 24 hours ago we were standing on the opposite sides of something beautiful, and not knowing what it was.
Keeping everything casual cus it’s safer to not know what we’re getting ourselves into.
The rest of the day before this was a blur anyway.
So I’m fine with losing myself in you.
Together we’ll find ourselves.
I don’t want to go anywhere, I want to be here with you.
And here is where we begin.
Close your eyes & let me in.
You’ve opened mine & now we’ll never be the same.

Lovers Last (Destination)

Wait for it, it only gets better from here.
What we do from here on out is up to us.
If you think it’s better for us to stay where we are, we’ll do just that.
But you should know.
If you’re ready to move on, I’ll make my move.
We’ve reached our destination.

From the beginning we knew that we’d end up together, but not like this.
Now it all comes down to where we choose to run.
Love keeps raining down whenever you’re around.
Floodgates are overrun.
I’m not above drowning in your deep affections.
Willing to give in, losing our breaths between you & I.

Are we friends first & lovers last?
Lovers last forever my friend.
Tried holding my breath, but each time we’re this close you take what little air I have left.
We’ve reached our destination.

Heat’s fogging up the looking glass we played safe behind.
We don’t need safety nets to catch us this time.
All our walls have come down, brick by brick we’ve come undone.
We’re alone exactly like it’s supposed to be.
Hold on, hold me, I’ll show you sweet relief.

Are we friends first & lovers last?
Lovers last forever my friend.
Holding out for sweet release, but each time we go our own way we end up right where we left off.
We’ve reached our destination.

The Wait

The wait is all we know & all that we breathe.
Anticipation’s building as the countdown nears zero.
In the back of our minds we’re already so close.
But in reality we’re not face not face & I feel so out of place.
I apologize for all the places that I can’t be right now.
The closer you get, the more it hurts.
With you this is not like the usual, far from it.
I love you & no I’m not confused.
I’ve made my move, when will you make yours?

All this running around has got me winded.
Always falling for someone that can’t be there.
It’s not fair to want this for so long & to never know this as more than a passing dream.
Do you hear what I’m saying?
It was never supposed be more than a moment, but somehow the years caught up with us.
Always on the move, we take what we can get.
Stealing away for hours like it was our last day.
I never know which way we’ll go, but I have faith that we’ll be together.
I know it sounds crazy.

Just one thing stays the same.
Somewhere along this long, winding road we’ll cross paths, like we always do.
Destiny says that it’s bound to happen eventually.
Time tells me to hurry up & make it count.
Life let’s me know that love is for the living.
So what are we living for?
Don’t stop coming my way, I’ll meet you half way.
The time has come to give in or move on.
There’s a time for everything & a place for everyone worth losing sleep over.
Everything comes together when you breathe easy & just let it be.
We’re just counting the days on our fingertips.

Awake & Alive (A Perfect Mess)

What’s a young one to do when what’s left is a perfect mess?
Right on schedule, these dreams are quickly seeping outside of my head.
Next in line to rule over this mass effect of emotion.
It’s all these restless nights & blanketed days under the Sun that we’ve forgotten.
See it’s all these little things that we’re gonna have to relearn.
How to crawl.
When to walk & when to run.
How to touch someone without lifting a finger.
What love is & how it’s supposed to be shown now.

Here’s a little secret, I don’t have a clue how any of it works.
I just do what I do instinctively.
It’s like I am the road & you are the wheels.
Some trips are worthwhile while others leave you behind.
Tread lightly & live fearlessly, eventually you’ll figure it out.
I could stay in bed all day, dreaming.
Blankets may keep me warm, but nothing feels better than simply being loved.
All these little dreams that I want to live out have formed a mountain that I intend to climb & rise above.

There’s nothing wrong with dreaming of that world outside your window cus who knows when you’re gonna need that breath of fresh air.
Dreams are doors to the things living inside our heads.
What we can’t make sense of, we sleep on.
And when we sleep, that’s when we’re truly awake to our potential.
And when we wake from our unscripted slumber, hopefully we’ll remember what we’ve learned.
It may not be perfect, but it’s good to be awake & alive.

Young one don’t be afraid of what you’ve got on the inside.
Don’t forget who you are.
Don’t forget to dream.
Believe in something that you can’t live without.
