Still I Fear


Still I fear love will fade away,
And still I fear the past in today.
And still I fear my heart will crack,
turn into dust and never look back.

Still I fear you might disappear,
Into that water that runs so clear.
Through your soul & veins,
Through your roads & lanes,
Within the driving mind that I adore,
In the love that leaves me wanting more.

But when you smile at me it all melts away,
like the setting sun in the dusk of day.

And when we kiss the stars align,
the constellations into a heavenly sign.

And when I tightly hold your hand,
The warmth spreads out across the sand,
That God used and molded into me,
That love abused and froze in the sea.

To scream and run and dance and sing,
To be with you means everything.
Don't leave me in your complacent crust,
Don't just stand there and let me rust.

Pull me in and never let go.
Embrace the fire that burns so slow.
And when you come home, come home to my heart.
Please open the door, please take it apart.
Please greet me with a warm embrace,
Its you I want, its only your face.
Its only your smile, its only your hands,
Its only your heart that feels like a man's.
Its only your kiss that I wish would stay,
Its only your love that takes my fear away.
