Random Lyric Poems (681)

If you loved Me,
You know what I would Do,
Anything you Asked,
Or told me To;
I'd give you my Money,
I'd sing the Blues,
I'd live in a Ditch,
And go without Shoes;
I'd shave your Legs,
And suck your Toes,
Sleep Naked in the Rain,
When the Cold Wind Blows;
I'd scrub your Toilet,
I'd mop your Floors,
And I'd never, Ever,
Fool with those other Whores;
But, most of All,
I'd give you my Heart,
And swear by God,
We would never Part...

Giddy anticipation
as the wheels are touchin, dowwwn
Can’t contain excitement
once my plane is on the grouuund

Grabbing my suitcase, a’rollin
heading through the gate
I’m prayin all’s okay
cuz the flight’s a little late

a little laaaa-ay-eh-ate

Been tryna hook up, darlin
ever since the light of day-ay.
But when I call ya, honey
well your phone just rings awaaay

Awayyy – ay – eh hay

Well I, been stuck in Medford
and I don’t know what to do – ooo.
I’ve done all that I could,
tryin to get ahold of you.

I’m stuck in Medford…
wooo wooo.
I’m stuck in Medford,
what can I do?

I’m stuck in Medford…
wooo wooo.
I’m stuck in Medford,
what can I do – ooo?

See the plan’s to be out
in celebration of Thanksgiving
Holy rollers giving chase:
“Repent, you do the Devil’s bidding”

Anxiety’s a’houndin me
inside this airline
No matter how I’m callin, you
just won’t pick up the line

It was kinda short notice
so things didn’t go as planned
Plus the phone went dead
meanwhile, traffic is at hand

aaa-aat haaaand

I’m stuck in Medford…
wooo wooo.
I’m stuck in Medford,
what can I do?

I’m stuck in Medford…
wooo wooo.
I’m stuck in Medford,
what can I do-ooo?

You approach, shaking your head
so, apologetically
You say: “Traffic outta nowhere
and a dead phone battery-eee”

Somehow forgot the charger
so I couldn’t let you know.
I’m so sorry, by the way
How did your flying gooo?”

“It’s alright my love, shit happens
The flights were, such a breeze
Now I’m ever-so elated
cuz I’m with the bee’s kneeees

The beeee’s knee-heee-eee-eees

Been tryna hook up, darlin
ever since the light of day-ay.
But when I call ya, honey
well your phone just rings away

I, been stuck in Medford
and I don’t know what to do – ooo.
I’ve done all that I could,
tryin to get ahold of you.

I’m stuck in Medford…
wooo wooo.
I’m stuck in Medford,
what can I do?

I’m stuck in Medford…
wooo wooo.
I’m stuck in Medford,
what can I do – ooo?

Before the storm a cold, cold breeze,
Begins to show its power.
The clouds all black and water filled,
Will burst within the hour.

And in the distant darkened sky,
There comes a flicker of flashing light.
And far off sounds that rumble and crack,
Thunder answers with all its might!

And that gray space between ground and black,
Too strong to call a shower,
Will soon be here to drench and soak,
The ground that now bears flower.

Now it nears and drops do fall,
First gentle then with full force.
The storm, it makes its pathway known,
Staying persistently on its course.

When all has past, all calm and clear,
And the sky is bright with sun,
A beautiful rainbow just might appear.
God's promise, 'tis all said and done!

Your book is
Being opened—
I am in rapture of
Its sensuous delicacy…
Your text is a garden
Left in the sanctuary
Of poetic prose;
Yield the letters
Of your meaning to me…
Let me write verses on
Them with mystic adoration.

When all that matters is no more
and emotions lay bare on the floor
when all that once was no longer is
then life has surely lost its fizz
but hope springs eternal, or so they say
and maybe I'll find love again some day
maybe not now, or even next week
but in time I might find the one whom I seek
She might not be perfect but then neither am I
she might not come to me in the blink of an eye
but as the saying goes, and we all know it well
'there's someone for everyone'.....
it's on these words I dwell
we've all been in love and lost someone dear
and after the pain then comes the fear
the fear of finding someone new
and of closing the book on the past that we knew
and the one that we loved and with whose love we grew
but books are written with a start and an end
and love is the same, no matter how we pretend
all we can do is enjoy each chapter
while cherishing the love of the new heart we capture.

When I look at the window
stray clouds are starting to argue.
The heavy rain is crying with tears
washing the windows of my memories.
When I look at the window
fuzzy faces from the past
are rolling in my head
I can't forget them.
When I look at the window
I hang in the reflection of the face
which I know and seems alien.
When I look at the window
my days are leaking
through a sieve with large holes.
When I look at the window ...

Yesterday was a little dismal and today is still a little gray
But I'm hoping before tomorrow comes that you will stay

We can lay under the moon and look up at the stars
We can talk about how long it takes to fly to mars
Or we don't have to say a word and just meditate on love
Give our bodies to the heavens when hell has had enough
The first second that we met wasn't true romance
She was an angel in the dark so I had to take a chance
You see Ive been searching this whole world just to meet a girl
One who knows the lyrics to my song or one sung by The Cure
Then my compass pointed in her direction when I wasn't searching for affection
I was looking in my wallet to see if I had protection
She was dancing to her own beat- - Letters to Elise
Striped pink and green socks pulled way above her knees
I could see it in her eyes they were different in the light
She wasn't standing in the sun, but I knew she was the one
So I grabbed a shiny dollar, yes a silver dollar
I didn't have any cash just my lucky silver dollar
I held it in my teeth as she came down to me
I dropped it down her top and she kissed me on my cheek
She then said lets get out of here I really hate this atmosphere
I said let me tell my friends while I finish drinking up my beer
We jumped into my truck I said my Porsche is in the shop
She laughed and said that I was funny and she thinks thats really hot
We pulled up to my house and barely made it through the door
She started tearing off my clothes and threw them on the floor
We made our way down the hall bouncing like a ball
Knocking down my family pictures and breaking holes into the walls
I kissed her on her cheek, I kissed her on her head
I kissed her on her navel, and then I kissed her on her neck
I kissed her everywhere, but we never made it to the bed
And when we were laying there breathing this is what I said

Yesterday was a little dismal and today is still a little gray
But I'm hoping before tomorrow comes that you will st..............

The next morning I woke up naked on my rug
There wasn't anybody there just a lot of empty rug
I started looking all around I must of really been knocked out
Because the angel in the dark took everything inside my house
But there was a letter on the counter it said thank you for your truck
You can find it on the highway probably burned up
Just to let you know If things were different I'd want you to be my man
But I had a really great time so you can have your silver dollar back

In a not green, green room
dreams come easier
by the glow of the stars
of the Moroccan lamp.
In a not green, green room
the silence is broken
by the purring of the aggregator cat
or eagle owl hidden in the dark.
In a not green, green room
through the eyelash curtains
I catch the dawn rays in my fingers
weaving a green tapestry.
In a not green, green room
the emptiness of the sheets
covered the next day.

You showed up around 11 and said we would eat lunch
It took till 1:30 and I wanted to punch
You in the face but I was too starving to try
Every time we get together I want to cry
You have a fancy car and a TV too
A hundred and one gadgets and your own Youtube
But it's always something is off and not quite right
Your employee called in and now you will work into the night
I'm driving your car to my place so you
Can get another 40 minutes off work real soon
When will you come and get your car, only heaven knows
It's no wonder everyone you know want to go to blows
For all the crazy @$%& you constantly do
That affect everyone around you and makes them feel like dodo
But I really thank you for the food, ice cream, and pop at Freddy's
But the craziness of you makes me want to sneeze
It's been since early November since we last spent some time
When will it be again
I just hope you don't get arrested for a crime!

I do believe the Lord above created you for me to love, I think that he knew best because he made you better then all the rest.I has a hea et n it was true but now it's gone from me to you, so take good care as I have done for you have two n I have none,if I should die and go up there, I'll wait for you at the golden stairs, if your not there bye judgment day I'll know you went the other way, I'd give those angels back there wings golden hearts n all those thing things to prove my love for you is true joleene I'd search the fires of hell for you
