Another chance

I didn't want to disturb you
I didn't plan to hurt you
I have a stupid heart
It was counting on the past
All I did was wait
I did it the wrong way.

I know I'll change your mind
And you'd think it's divine
You'll like the way I speak
The way your knees go weak
I won't go about and fray
I'll do it the right way.

I know I was very lazy
When I should have been crazy
Give me another chance
I promise you, you'll dance
Dance the way you sway
When I do it the right way.

Not in love with her.

I'd seen her before
And her beautiful smile.
I couldn't ask for more
If she never had to cry.
But it's such a pity,
I'm not in love with her.

There's nothing she lacks,
If I can be totally fair.
'Bout her slender back,
And her lovely long beautiful hair.
Oh it's a pity,
I'm not in love with her.

But when I saw her last night
In her psychedelic colors,
Her dress was skin tight,
She looked better than the others.
But still it's a pity,
I'm not in love with her.

If she showed her love
For one of the boys.
There could be mistrust
Among the other guys.
And it's a pity,
That I won't be fighting for her.

I'd never seen her before,
Like I saw her last night.
I couldn't ask for more,
If she never had to cry.
And I know it's a pity,
But I'm just not in love with her.

Lovely Old Times.

I’m coming home again,
So please hold my hand
Treat me like you did
When I was a boy.
Like the time I’d cry,
For every other toy.

Well I’ll get up
Late in the morning,
And eat whatever I want.
Chocolates for breakfast
And the cold drinks,
And ice-cream for lunch.

We’ll go for a drive
Late at night
In the car.
And though I can drive,
I’ll sit in the backseat,
And help you reverse.

And when we get back
We eat ice-cream,
Along with chocolate chips.
Then we stack our plates,
Put them on the shelf,
And go off to sleep.

Then on Saturday at noon,
We go to the mall.
We shop there
And walk around.
And we look at stuff,
We won’t really buy.

We shop till we drop,
And when we’re tired,
We drag ourselves,
To the pizza shop.
We smell the good stuff,
And then we hog !!

And when we’ve
Laughed out hearts out
On a lazy Sunday afternoon.
Lying in bed,
Tickling each other,
And our eyes full of laughter,
We’ll realize everything.
All the love we’ve missed,
Each other’s company,
How times have changed.
We used to be together,
And took it all for granted,
Now we crave for it,
And write songs about it
When we imagine it.
Can’t have the old times back.
Just the memories
And time to recollect them.
That’s all we have now.
Life’s come one full circle,
The love is still the same.

Grey Eyed Girl.

Grey eyed girl shining bright
And she doesn’t even mind,
Working till late at night.
She’s got no complains,
She even has time to play games.
Comes out and smiles.

Well you should know ,
She isn’t lying,
If she comes up to you,
And says she loves you.

She’s a strong willed woman,
Compromises with no one.
She knows her work,
And she does it right.
Puts in all her might.
She knows how to balance
Everything in life,
And you can see it in her eyes.

Let it go !!

Forget it,
Don’t be too harsh on yourself.
That was all,
There’s nothing more to it.
Stop it, crush it,
Put an end to it.
It saddens you every day,
It turns you into a pendulum.
It takes away your time,
And you just wait for your turn.
But you don’t really want it,
Now it’s over.

My understanding of LOVE.

Of frustration, I ask.
What on earth is love?
The question would be wrong,
Love is universal.
It would exist in space
If I were to go there.
My friends would hold me,
And not let me float away.
Just like they do now,
Keep me from getting lost
Into the wilderness and vastness.
I could end up lost and worried.
Look for my way,
Where there is no way.
So I’m glad there are friends,
Who love me right.

And when we get older,
We build other priorities,
Get on each other’s nerves,
And start to part our ways,
I’m sure I’ll fall in love.
With a girl who’s dreamt of me.
Then she’ll love me right,
Look after me all the while.
And I know she’ll be my friend,
Otherwise I wouldn’t fall in love.

This is how I’ve defined it,
The only love that exists for now,
Is the one that friends give me.
And to love somebody else,
A girl who’s not my friend,
Would be very unfair,
To all my friends and me.
So till we are together,
Our love will make us bigger.

The Day I Die. (written with tears in the eyes)

What would you do,
If I walked up to you
And told you,
I would die tomorrow ?

Mother would you hold me close,
And talk to your baby inside me ?
Father would you buy me the best electric guitar,
And take me for a ride in a luxury car ?
Sister would you still prepare me
For the world ahead, and protect me ?
Friends would you hug me as you walk in,
Look through your teary eyes, and remember times ?

I hope I’ll gather the courage
To talk about all my dreams,
And express my displeasure,
At everything everyone thought was important.
I hope I’d be forgiven
When I confess all my sins.
And I hope nobody explains
Or tries to justify themselves,
Because it would be my day,
The only day I die.

How long will it take you,
To fill the blank i leave ?
How long will you be sad
After I’m dead ?
Have you ever thought
What would hurt you more ?
If I died without telling you,
Or if I plead for solitude,
On the day I die.

Valentine's Day.

As I sit here single today
I realize how much I love everything.
I love the way I recognize her voice
Amongst ten others when she’s out of sight.
I love the way she waves her hand,
To say a ‘hi’ if I don’t notice her.
I love the way she runs into me,
Almost anywhere, any time of the day.
I love the way her friends plan it,
To let her know where I am.
I love the way all my friends tease me,
And tell me to walk up to her and talk.
I love the way she’s more special today
Because today’s Valentine’s Day.
And I’d love the way everyday would be more special
If she’d been my Valentine today.

Oh The Hills ...

I wish to go back
To that beautiful land.
Where the cold wind was sweet,
The fields green and brown.
The big, white windmills
Showed how pure the world is.
The green in the valleys,
And the trees I saw.

The waterfalls in the rain,
Would have been a great sight.
Too bad I missed them,
But I’m glad I imagined it,
Gave it my own beauty.

The early morning fog,
The trees I saw through it,
The reflection of the trees in the pond,
The depth behind the trees,
The sunrise in the distance,
The fruits that had fallen,
The birds that ate the fruits,
The trees from which they flew,
I wish I could be there with you.

And if I go there alone,
It wouldn’t be painful,
The beauty would heal it.
I hope you can feel
What it is to be there.
