If I had all I need
I know I would be complete

Just knowing
What that is …is hard
Not hard to define, but hard to achieve
Because it would involve more than me

If I need a hand up
Could I count on someone
If I need a place to rest
Would you allow me to lie down

I want to express
Do you have the time? :)

I can be wordy
Entertaining
Make the hour go by fast

Just the one thing
That I can’t do
Is get your cooperation, understanding
Some time to share all this with you
 
Powerful and poignant piece, Hodee. Thought-provoking and moving.



Just the one thing
That I can’t do
Is get your cooperation, understanding
Some time to share all this with you

Well, just sit yourself down and unload
I know, the build-up, if not released, will implode or explode
So, share with me the straights and the bends in YOUR road
Relay to me what personal choices and divine Grace have bestowed
Let's jubilate together on your good days
When your heart was glad and your smile glowed
And then hold hands
Through the ones when your footsteps feel shortened & slowed
When the weight upon your back makes your spine a bit bowed
But yet, unbroken
And whatever else, I'll just read it in your eyes....
You can leave it unspoken.
 
I'll just read it in your eyes....It will be there

Powerful and poignant piece, Hodee. Thought-provoking and moving.




Well, just sit yourself down and unload
I know, the build-up, if not released, will implode or explode
So, share with me the straights and the bends in YOUR road
Relay to me what personal choices and divine Grace have bestowed
Let's jubilate together on your good days
When your heart was glad and your smile glowed
And then hold hands
Through the ones when your footsteps feel shortened & slowed
When the weight upon your back makes your spine a bit bowed
But yet, unbroken
And whatever else, I'll just read it in your eyes....
You can leave it unspoken.

Well, just sit yourself down and unload
That is all a man needs.
Someone he can tell all the things on his mind
No need to provide an answer
He really knows the truth
He is conflicted in what his decision has to be in this condition.


I know, the build-up, if not released, will implode or explode
But your soft shoulder provides him a place to unfold
After the loving hand you provide
Has caressed his head, rubbed his back all’s OK


So, share with me the straights and the bends in YOUR road
As man I will try but can never say all I hold inside
Maybe it will sort of whack
It’s possible it will change how you view me in fact
It may be that I am not into sharing it all... at once
I promise to give all the bends and straights that you need
So not to deceive… or disappoint
Have you wondering with who you give


Relay to me what personal choices and divine Grace have bestowed
I can do that dear heart
With you I am whole


Let's jubilate together on your good days
We will jubilate like the party won’t end
As partners, shared relations, lovers and friends


When your heart was glad and your smile glowed
And then hold hands
Through the ones when your footsteps feel shortened & slowed
When the weight upon your back makes your spine a bit bowed


And whatever else, I'll just read it in your eyes....
You can leave it unspoken.


Thank you Baby
For being the one to let me be
The whole and congruent and pieces you see.

Holding hands.
I like that a lot
That is something I look forward to as we share and we walk

Thru this life...build a life
Take on life as we grow

Turning towards the comforts each impart and we know
Are strong and has foundation
To build and to plan
Then each end of the day
Just lay with this man
My mind will never wonder
I know you’re so true
No other… no matter the trouble
Me no other …Will ever come between me and you
