lyrics

Mental contusions
Confusions, confessions
Digressions, impressions
Expressing the many ways I contemplate loving you
I’ve often insisted
That I may be just a little twisted
Because my thoughts hold the mindset of misfits
Wayward and unkempt
Nor concerned about consequences
And like a revolutionary
Euphoria has had its way with my common sense
That is now waging a war with my consciousness
But peace is at the forefront
When I finally come to a state of repentance
Relinquishing my relentlessness
Into believing that there is more to life than just loving you
But your aura is so magnetic; I can feel you in my thoughts
You weave into me well just the like the spider in my dreams
We feast on conversations, fully satisfied we abide
Sharing in like-minded paradigms
Words so inviting got us devouring from our fingertips
A fine wine you are and like the lady I am, I sip
And from this moment, a drunkard I’ve become
All the while we’re becoming afflicted by our convictions
And convicted from our afflictions
But with God as my witness, I will get this thing right!
In the meantime, all I ask, is that you
Complete me, control me
Mind, body, and soul me
Mentally unfold me
While you spiritually uphold me
When the stakes are high
Don’t you fold me
Because when I think of you
It’s like I’m painting my dreams
Van Gough’s playing acoustic
As I sing out my heart’s desires
Proving that it has always been you
Even before I knew
So note that the love we have is real
And believe that what we share
Will have moments of despair
Encountering the darkest of days
Just assure me that you’ll stay
As we go against the grain
And to the times when the test becomes a strain
We’ll just kiss and make up
Enduring the pain Waiting for the sunrise
While we stroll through the rain, together
See, I’m not that crazy
I’m just a radical with a will to love
Believing that intimacy
Can be made eminent
When two make the most of time spent
To discover each other
Body and soul
Remembering that from heart The mouth tells all
And from all of that
What I really wanted to say was I love you...
