10/12/17 Sent this to ‘him’ last night. (I couldn’t stop myself – I have moments when I feel the reins are in the hands of a higher power, and before I know what’s happened, I’ve clicked ‘send’). Back to square one, trying to let go. 😦

Verse 1

What made you run the other way?

Now you’re so far away

Oh did you run away from love?

Pushin me so far away

Maybe you want a lover

That ain’t gonna stay

For the long haul anyway

Or maybe you’re holding out

For a love that lasts

Beyond your dying day

A love that comes around

Again and again…

Verse 2

It’s all I needed to know

So baby please don’t go

Don’t you ever leave me again

Oh baby I can’t let go

We could be ten outta ten

If only you’d believe

In a perfect rhyme in double time

Or do you think you’re better off alone?

Let me be the one

To take you all the way

I think you know

I want it all…

Verse 3

I want a love that’s real

A love that I can feel

I want a love that’s stronger than steel

The up-sized, the big deal

I wanna make love in a Baroque cathedral

Carve our hearts into the rock

Our initials scratched out

For someone else to make out

While Bach n Mozart

Light candles in the dark

Paint our names into the dark night

Red lightening from our hearts

Sparkling wine that tastes of stone

Whisper n moan

Chorus (×2)

I want a love that’s real

A love that I can feel

A golden keel

That holds me up so I can breathe

When seas get rough

And the sky knows what colours to deal

I want the real deal ohh ohhh

When you gonna give it to me?
