Cookie Cutter Waltz
Lemon yellow light
Filtering through the window
Dances on your skin
And the shadows make me smile
As soft music fills my mind

The Phantom in My Dreams
The phantom in my dreams
Softly beckons me
To walk foreboding halls
Where candles light the walls
I can smell the faint bouquet
Of a hundred yesterdays
And feel the gentle rush
Of wind inside the darkness
Where there beyond the door
She stands upon a floor
Of polished marble
In rich brocade of ebony
As white as snow is she
And oh the waltz she plays
In a mesmerizing way
With bow and tender string
Does cause my heart to sing
And eye to cry
So sweet her rhapsody
Prompting all of me
To linger on within her song
Rose petals fill the air
I deftly reach to touch her hair
As tears begin to flow
She grabs my wrist
And whispers no
I then awake to find
She’d left fingerprints behind
I fail to understand
Why she would reprimand
My loving soul
Perchance again I’ll sleep
And down corridors she’ll creep
I’ll not be remiss
To offer her my kiss
Before I wake

Lover’s Waltz
Tonight I want to dance
To dare to take the chance
To take your hands in mine
Then step in three four time
Your eyes are bright as stars
The sky above is ours
As our song softly plays
You take my breath away
The place I love the best
My head against your chest
The warm soft beat inside
Where part of me resides
I feel that I belong
Inside your arms so strong
And capable to win
A lover and a friend

Completely
With all my heart
And all I am
I give my love
To you my man
Completely
Without any hope for a return
I give it freely
My precious gift
To you in turn
For your sweet smile
And sparkling eyes
That lift me up to paradise
Completely
Without any hope for a return
You give them freely
Your precious gifts
For which I yearn
Come hold me close
Don’t let me go
My darling love
I need you so
Completely
Forever’s never long enough
To be held sweetly
Inside the magic of your touch
With all my heart
And all I am
I give my love
To you my man
Completely
