Let me love you




If you would let me love you one more moment.
You'll never want to let me get away.
You'd walk across a desert of hot ashes.
And hold me once again in loves true sway.

I never meant to love you; it just happened.
Like the sunrise casts the light on a new day.
She doesn't; won't.  
She can't; she don't,
Love you like I do; in any way.

Choose me.  Choose me.  
Choose me.  Choose me.

The smell of you; still lingers on my pillow.
The taste of you; still burning on my lips.
If I could only hold you 'till the morning,
I'd rock you to the centre of your bliss.

I never meant to love you; it just happened.
Like the sunrise casts the light on a new day.
She doesn't, won't.  
She can't, she don't,
Love you like I do in any way.

Choose me.  Choose me.  
Choose me.  Choose me.

Two satellites collided without notice.
The waves of shock exploded 'cross the sky,
an avalanche of burning fury rages,
a forbidden love will grow but slowly die.

I never meant to love you; it just happened.
Like the sunrise is the start of a new day.
She doesn't; won't.  
She can't, she don't,
Love you like I do in any way.

Choose me.  Choose me.  
Choose me.  Choose me.

She doesn't love you like I do.
Choose me.

Paper Wings. A poem by Tom Williams


I'm the last person to tell you I'm an angel but still I was given these paper wings and they came with a price.
A burden so heavy that I'm still unable to fly.
Every night I set fire to your house in my dreams; maybe one day I'll actually do it so I will finally look like a bad guy in your eyes.
Maybe then you will stop loving me and I can move on; and you can move on; and we can make this right.
And I know it's just a dream but I used to wish I knew what love felt like; but now I've had love, and now I've lost love, I wish that I never new it at all.

Fortune Teller. A short verse by Tom Williams

Even if I could see into the future, and know that I would one day be back in your arms,It wouldn't matter.I've been asleep for so long, all I know......is right now...chaos in the calm.
