It Really Would Be Nice
Updated: May 16, 2020

I Know It's Hard..But..
It Really Would Be Nice
If You Just Went With The Flow
To Let Your Insecurities Go To Sleep
As Not All Problems Will Cause You Woe
It Really Would Be Nice
To Take Life As It Comes
To See Yourself As Part Of The Jigsaw
Created By Mother Nature's Womb
It Really Would Be Nice
It Really Would Be Nice
If Life Was Just A Slow..Slow Dream
Which Went Exactly As You Planned
Or You Could Get Off In Midstream
It Really Would Be Nice
If Your Lover's Realities Were Tailor Made
If Our Problems Came In Micro Size
And Their Solutions Macro Grade
It Really Would Be Nice
If You Trusted My Words A Little More
And Not Take My Absence
As Something Else To Store
It Really Will Be Nice
When You Accept All That I Have To Be
The Totality Of My Life So Far
Shapes And Makes My Reality
If I Told You That I Loved You
Would You Ask Me Why
If I Told You Because I Needed You
Would You Still Ask Me Why
If I Said Because You Were My Missing Side
Would You Say..Don=T Lie
If I Said I Tell The Truth
Would It Make You Cry
Cry Into The Midnight Cup
Sweet Bird Full Of Youth
Come..Wrap Yourself In Merriment
Come..Wrap Yourself In Joy
Go....Tell The Sweet Tomorrow
That Love Is Here At Last
Come And Fill My Senses
With Potions Rich And Pure
But..When You Walk Beside Me
Then You Must Be Sure
Why Does She Hesitate ?
What Thoughts Run Through The Petrified Forest ?
What Force Holds Her.. In Its Vicelike Grip ?
Afraid To Move Forward..Afraid To Look Back.
Why Does She Wait ?
Like A Phoenix Awaiting New Birth
If Only She Could Come.. A Little Closer
Then I'd Be Able To Touch..Hold..
And Finally Bring Her To The Safety Of My Love.
But Standing There..
On The Precipice Called Indecision
I Cannot Save Her
Without Killing Myself.
