The Edge Of Love

Steps are in time with the beat of my heart
On this dance floor we are becoming one
Thudding to the melody of rock, my soul's music
Comforting from head to toe, shaking limbs
Seems to take over all of me, holding hands
As we walk, we roll, on the edge of love

Leaves are soon to fall, soon to dry up the gutter
Where I've sat more than once, watching cars
Feeling fonder of this feeling, taking over me
See the sun full of warmth, tree tops deepen
My decision to walk straight to you
As we run into each other's arms
On the edge of love

Now, no one seems to question much, no, no
We look so good, so grand, together
Overcoming the diverity of before we met
When it was all fuck the world, who needs you
Why I do! Yes, I do

On the edge of love, standing up
On the edge of lovers with so much time to share
On the edge of love, believing more
and more in the process of healing
From one last fall, one last time
In this place, I can root for love

On the edge
We walk, we roll
On the edge

Untrained Heart

Tick, tick, tick goes the clock on the mantle
I've yet to handle sleeping sound
As more and more useless minutes
Find me far away from home
Stuck in position for a fight
It's useless to ask why I am not even afright
On a night such as this,
I've licked my wounds, torn my bandages
Still I feel masked and bound
Never to reveal myself fully to you
Or any other woman.

I am trained in everything but love it seems
Woe is the heart that stands alone
Never to show its true nature
Yet, alas, we talk now and then
When your creamy smile appears,
As intoxicating as ever
I believe in hope that you and I
Can go further. Like lovers do

As still as a glass lake I sit
I study our relationship and you
Tick, tick, tick goes the clock on the mantle
It's useless to ask why I am not even afright
Of the rejection that is so binding to my mind
I'm trained in everything but love it seems

Again

How is it I'm here again?
So, angry with you
Seeing that red inside my eyes
I'm feeling rude again
Making moves outside the ordinary
To avoid confrontation, relation, and denial
Denial that you're more into
What I got
Then, how I can make you feel
'Cause it's the feeling of love
That gets me through the tough
Longing of denial's span
You know I need ... you

Side note:

I think I might tweek this one too, a bit later.

Goodnight (expanded edition)

My lips tenderly graze your skin
Wishing for more, or even just a kiss
However you don't seem to notice
Not a little bit, not even at all
And this makes me ponder
What I want after all

I say goodnight to you, simply
Adding an I love you, honestly
That's how it begins adding up to nothing
My dreams, they pile, bunch together
Making nightmares out of treasures
It's all because you didn't say it back to me

Surely as waves crash upon the beach
I can be so free, to just, let it be
That's how it begins adding up to something
Noticing you are still not holding me
Somberly I pray my comfort
Doesn't hinder because I say it to you
Goodnight, and, sweet dreams

May we sail our seperate ways
Goodnight, my love, my heart, my soul
Skin doesn't touch, it seizures
It's all because of the heat felt within

Say it to me, say it to me
Make me feel like I was younger
That's how it began when we were one
My dreams, my prayers, they answer
Speaking verses to my heart
I love you more today than last night

I say goodnight to you, simply
May our love live heavenward
Honestly, remember me
When your eyes shut against the world

Goodnight (To expand or not?)

I'd like to know whether to expand on this or to keep it short like it is. I'm stuck somewhere in the middle. Enjoy and let me know. _Katie_

~+Goodnight+~
