will you walk with me...

would you walk with me...
through the sands of time,
would you walk with me...
hold your hand in mine,

will you stay with me...
through the thick and thin,
be by my side...
with me lose or win,


no sweet girl...
i don’t wanna make you mine,
i would never want to own...
something so divine,

all i ask...
is if you'll-walk here by my side,
hand and hand,
as we cross this great divide,

through this world...
through the valleys high and low,
there’s just one thing...
that i need to know,



will you dance with me...
when it starts pouring rain,
will you answer me...
when i call your name,

will you my dear...
let me keep you safe and sound,
will you lift me up...
each time that i fall down,


no sweet girl...
i don’t wanna make you mine,
i would never want to own...
something so divine,

all i ask...
if-you'll-walk here by my side,
hand and hand...
as-we-cross this great divide,

through this world...
through the valleys high and low,
there’s just one thing...
that i need to know,


will you lay with me...
even on my bed of nails,
when my world falls down...
and all that’s left is broken shells,

will you let me please...
do the same for you,
will you let me show...
you that this love is true,


no sweet girl...
i don’t wanna make you mine,
i would never want to own...
something so divine,

all i ask is...
if you'll walk here by my side,
hand and hand...
as we cross this great divide,

through this world...
through the valleys high and low,
there’s just one thing...
that i need to know,


will you walk with me...
through the sands of time,
will you walk with me...
hold your hand in mine,

will you dance with me...
when it starts pouring rain,
will you answer me...
when i call your name,

the perfect words for your song...

I guess I left you waiting
here alone to long
While I was out there searching
for the perfect words to write your song

hell I can't blame
in your shoes I'd probably do the same,
Oh hell maybe not me,
but anyone with half a brain,

I hear you booked the big hall,
Up on the east side of town,
you know if we would ever did it,
that ain't the way it woulda went down,
hell if you woulda ran with me,
We'd still be out rambling round,

I guess I left you waiting,
here alone to long,
While i was out there searching,
For the perfect words for your song,

hell no one can blame you,
he was the safer way,
he can promise you tomorrow,
all i can offer is today,

he better hold you close beside him,
when you need to cry,
he better stand there waiting to catch you,
when you want to fly,

will he cry into his pillow,
drunken whiskey tears,
thinking of you to the jukebox,
With every sad song he hears,

will he chase away the waitress,
who wanted to take him home,
by boring her with sob stories,
of how he did you wrong,

hell no one can blame you,
he was the safer way,
he'll promise you tomorrow,
I barely made it here today,

I guess it's he that can offer you,
all the things you need,
but would he be walk here through the night to see you,
so far his feet bleed,

I don't have much to offer,
just good luck and goodbye,
and the knowing that you'll stay in my heart
as the years pass us bye,

I guess I left you waiting,
here alone way to long,
while I was out there searching,
for the perfect words for your song,

the problem is...

Note: this was written by responses to facebook status messages that started from a friend, i thought it flowed nicely and one day may turn it into a song...

Brent:
Population keeps breeding
Nation bleeding, still more feeding

Life is funny, skies are sunny
Bees make honey, who needs money?

I’d love to save the world,
But don’t know what to do
So ill just sit back
And leave it up to you

Austin:
Progress is made, while regress still rains
To leave us in shade, and undress the pains

Emo it's not, but lies remain taught.
The elixir for all is well-reasoned thought.

Buddy:
we all cry for change,
but hide in our weakness,
when things fall apart,
we cry to others "pick up the pieces",

no longer take pride, to stand on our own,
just cry out for a savior, to stand on a throne,

how can anyone save you,
when its from yourself you need saved,
greed, lust, and envy,
have this broken road paved,

as long as we cry out for others to lead,
when all we want are handouts off which we can feed,

as long as we continue to teach our children to hate,
we are dooming this world to this lovely cursed fate,

so dont cry to me how everyone else is wrong,
when in the end we are all singing,
this same damn sad song,

found my way to new orleans...

I mighta got lost on my way to heaven,
But I found my way to new Orleans,
Tasted some of that jambalaya,
And had a dance with a Cajun queen,

Met some lovely ladies from Mississippi,
Feasted in some crawfish pie,
Yeah this might not be heaven,
But if it ain't I don't wanna die,

All these pretty ladies,
Said they like the way I move my feet,
Somehow that hillbilly shuffle,
Moves right along to the Cajun beat,

Music on every street corner,
From miles and miles you hear the trumpets blare,
Yeah for those nights in bourbon,
Lord I didn't have a care,

Yeah I got lost on the way to heaven,
But I found my way to New Orleans,
Feasted on some jambalaya,
Must have danced with every Cajun queen,

Met some ladies from Mississippi,
Said they loved the way I moved my feet,
It's kinda funny how the hillbilly shuffle,
Moves right along to the Cajun beat,

Ain't to many places left in this country,
Where you can still find people dancing in the street,
I might not ever find my way to heaven,
But i thank god for New Orleans.....

love, love for the sake of loving...

honey i need you,
baby don't you want me,
darling won't you meet me,
somewhere in the country,

and we'll love..
love for the sake of loving,
and we'll dream..
dream of nothing but the moment we're caught in,
and we'll love..
love for the sake of loving,

we won't take with us the damage,
of all of our yesteryear,
talk of the future,
will be far from what you'll hear,

if your listening,
listening to what our hearts are saying,
as they connect,
con-nect with the words of passion,
as we love,
love for the sake of loving,


and we'll dream,
dream of nothing but the moment we're caught in,
and we'll be,
be whatever our hearts are feeling,
and we'll love..
love for the sake of loving,

honey i need you,
baby don't you want me,
darling won't you meet me,
somewhere in the country,

i just dont know what that means


i said i like you,
i just dont know what that means,
im just a young man,
living an old life of broken dreams,

when your laughing,
it makes me feel inside,
like somehow/someday,
everything will be alright,

i said i like you,
i just dont know what that means,


i spend my days wandering,
through this world all alone,
looking for reasons,
that i can keep going on,

ive never had to,
lean on anyone,
ive never learned to,
let there be someone,

i could count on,
to be there by my side,
if i said that didnt scare me,
that would be a lie,

truth is im a rambler,
i was born a gypsie soul,
spend my time searching,
for what it is i do not know,

but it haunts me,
and makes me chase away,
any idea of tomorrow,
that would slow down my today,

but girl know that

i like you,
i just dont know what that means,
im a young man,
living an old life of broken dreams,

when your with me,
and your hand brushes mine,
i feel a warmth inside me,
that just seems to stop time,

yes i like you,
i just dont know what that means


but yet i already know that im leaving,
i do wish that i could stay,
but im a rambler,
i dont know any other way,

when i feel myself getting close,
or caring for someone,
it scares me,
it chills me and hits my urge to run,

so im back to searching,
for what it is i do not know,

but just know that

i like you,
i just dont know what that means,
im a young man,
living an old life of broken dreams,

when your laughing,
and i look into your eyes,
it makes me feel inside,
like someday/ somehow,
every thing will be alright,

yes girl i like you,
i just dont know what that means,
