Your Egypt

[Magdythinker]

I saw you walking through my dreams again
and heard you talking just like my best friend
I held my breath when I took your hand
Just like I used to
And just for a while, it was enough
Just for a while I was in love
Till the light of the sky opened my eyes
And caught me crying by surprise

We’ve been together all this time
Still you don’t know who I am
We speak the same language
But you don’t know what I mean
You listen to the words
But I don’t know what you hear

We go to the same places
But where you’ve been I can’t tell
There are a stranger’s eyes that hide the face
I thought I knew so well

But I saw you walking through my dreams again
And I heard you talking just like my best friend
I held my breath when I took your hand
Just like I used to
And just for a while - it was enough
Just for a while - I was in love
Till the light from the sky opened my eyes
And caught me crying by surprise

i recall tasting your breath
remember holding you close in a dream
kissing your eyes and ears
When you sit quietly,
if you listen carefully
You will hear the falling of tears

The heat of your body on fire
your eyes burning with desire
brought me to my knees
When you sit quietly,
if you listen carefully
You will hear the falling of tears

With each tic-toc,
with every drip-drop
i forget when the thrill and magic stopped...

The feel of your skin was like the desert wind
but even seasons get blown by the years
When you sit quietly,
listen carefully
You will hear the falling of tears

I think that is fascinating to be able to speak through the darkness as if one is apart from it although it holds one and in fact inspires one to express it

[ratty]

Love is real, real is love,
Love is feeling, feeling love,
Love is wanting to be loved.
Love is touch, touch is love,
Love is reaching, reaching love,
Love is asking to be loved.
Love is you,
You and me,
Love is knowing,
We can be.
Love is free, free is love,
Love is living, living love,
Love is needing to be loved.

I thought love was only true in fairy tales
Meant for someone else but not for me.
Love was out to get me
That was what it seemed.
Disappointment haunted all my dreams.

Then I saw her face, now I'm a believer
Not a trace of doubt in my mind.
I'm in love, I'm a believer!
I couldn't leave her if I tried.

but something missing...
love is giving
love is caring
love is considerate
love is gentle
love is kind
love is patient
love is forgiving

All the time you invested
all the long loving letters
All the hope you put in the future
All those things you wanted for so long
All of them add up to nothing
now that love is gone

All the friends all the family you ignored
All the places you left unexplored
all the laying awake till dawn
All the time being brave, carrying on
All of them add up to nothing
now that love is gone



All the waiting in despair
All the loving care
all the upset and worry
All the breath you spent saying you’re sorry
all of them add up to nothing
now that my feelings for you are gone

[Magdythinker]

Had you cared
than you would be with me now
and share the beauty of this night
i would stroke your hand like so many times before
kiss the tip of your nose
let my fingers explore

And if you'd stayed just for a while
we would now treasure our memories
There was so much to share
So many dreams and things to say and do
but you had so little time to care

i know ... you had better things to do
than trying to reach for the moon
but now that you need me
you find there's no one there
No-one there to hold you
