Three Simple Words

I’ve got three simple words
With powerful meaning
Three simple words to give to you
Three simple words
Unwieldy in discussion
Three simple words…

I’ve got three simple words
With lovely inspiration
Three simple words I owe to you
Three simple words
Stirred up by beauty
Three simple words, I love you

[Chorus]

I’ve got three simple words
With a smile and devotion
Three simple words I offer you
Three simple words
Cast with adoration
Three Simple words, I love you

[Chorus]
My dear it hasn’t been long
But I need to sing this song
To tell you how I feel for you
My feelings cannot stay
Locked up inside this way
I simply have to say I love you

[Repeat First Verse]

First Love Revisited

I follow the lines in the dark
My eyes watch them with no particular interest
Icy and robotic I follow the lines
Illuminated by a thick sheet of yellow
The lights return me to my home

I sit in silence
Only accompanied by the engine hum
The precise turns of the wheel makes me sway
I have no particular interest in the motion
The sound guides me home

I hear the words
In my head the words beg for release
But I remain in silence
I take in the silence all around
The silence fills my home

I enter my home
It is early and dark
But I do not fear the dark
For without love there is nothing to fear
Home is where my love should be

First love
Unrequited but pure
No other love can be the same
Others my try in vain
My love will never be home

As I lay I hear a voice
A voice of a long lost past
A past full of love
A past full of fear
The fear my love shall leave

The memory
The memory of the discovery of love
It flashes repeatedly across my eyes
The eyes of my heart and soul
My heart devoted to a love

The love
Constant and indescribable joy
The loss
Sorrow in a similar manner
Time passes but the love does not

The tears
They are forced from my heart and soul
My body no longer bares the stress
But it bends to the will of the soul
Until nothing of it remains
