Play Misty for Me
Love can come in many different forms
some more powerful
others less
And if you're frightened
you can be frightened
Yes.
You can be afraid to see and hear an old friend
Their actual presence and place
You can be afraid of loving creation
kneeling before time and space
There is a terror to knowing a person
can be the one for you
And a cold, bright shock that forever
can only bring you to the truth
with a capital TNT
Love plays upon us all in so many different ways
It can give you wings
bring you to your knee
So why be afraid of love?
It's just a feeling.
Right?
Wrong.
Love is a weapon
that will dwell in your energy
lock onto your scent
It will tear you out of the world
and deliver your essence
to a person or persons
And life itself is born again
from the torn remnant
of your own limits
Scarring trees
with images
of hearts
and names
and addition
We join in a playground
where you plus me
equals eternity
I am afraid
of being the man I should be
And you are afraid
to achieve
the woman you can be.
But together we dream
of Nuns
and Zombies
holding each other
Next door TV
flashing
blue
frames on the wall
It's a comedy
of errors - you see
It's about.
Taking the fall.
The darkness that comes
before the universe
unfurls
butterfly wings
and bears us up against the storm
to the flashing green
some more powerful
others less
And if you're frightened
you can be frightened
Yes.
You can be afraid to see and hear an old friend
Their actual presence and place
You can be afraid of loving creation
kneeling before time and space

can only bring you to the truth
