FOR MY EYES HAVE NOW BEEN OPENED

FOR MY EYES HAVE NOW BEEN OPENED

I cannot turn back time no matter what I do

For in my head there are many visions of you

I can't eradicate thoughts of you from my mind

You're there in my dreams you're there all the time

I’ve tried to walk away and tried to create distance

But there you stay filling all my senses

I see you in my head and your voice I can hear

I smell your scent and your presence I feel you near

I know you're not dead so why do you haunt me?

Why won't you just go and let me be free?

I've debated this so much and tried to analyse

And come to the conclusion true love never dies

It creates a bond unable to be broken

Where communication comes from the heart and words need not be spoken

My soul has been stirred awake from its deep sleep

And now there's a link one I fear I must keep

I know in my heart you must feel this too

For no matter how many years pass by I sense this presence of you

What can either of us do? This just won't go away

For my eyes have now been opened and now cannot be shut in any way

FORBIDDEN FRUIT

FORBIDDEN FRUIT

Why does forbidden fruit taste the sweetest

Gives the most pleasure and fulfilment

Is the act of saying no

The rebel within us says go

Like the grass looks greener on the other side

It isn't really but the rebel within wants to decide

But satiated it's no longer sweet

It's no different to others to eat

And like the grass use the eyes of your heart

For really both sides you can't tell apart

Lust unlike love has many faces

It dwells within its many voices

And withers and dies like autumn leaves

Creating disenchantment restlessness and unease

Spreading its poison like a disease

Till we are left with nothing at all

For forbidden fruit has destroyed it all

It may at first have the sweetest taste

But you'll find only bitterness in your haste

FORBIDDEN

FORBIDDEN

Forbidden means who would know

It’s a place where no one else should go

But there’s always an exception to the rule

Getting caught is surely for fools

It’s the thrill of adrenaline and getting away

The excitement and pleasures play

It’s addictive, it’s a need, it’s the thrill of the chase

A break in the monotony of the rat race

But it seldom gives satisfaction

A mere quenching of an addiction

It becomes what you think you need

But really its not just temporary greed

Lasting pleasure doesn’t involve just taking

True satisfaction means whole heartedly giving

If you adhere to believing who would know

You’ll never will feel true satisfaction’s glow
