I Put A Spell On You

I put a spell on you
on first sight
I put a spell on you
the first night
even nights you'd cry
for eggs we can't fry
'cos gas bills a paid,
days I'd drag home at night
and drop walking the stairs
while the kids were out in a fight
I put a spell on you
that makes you mine
Why did you need a spell
'cos at everything i did
you'd always yell.
When I walk this way
you say walk that way
in a world we both own
where is my own?
My shadow barely gone
to your spare you've already run
so I went me home
and I put a spell on you
so I could be the man in my own home.
Our love, like fire glowing
on the little stove in the corner
slowly faded away as the sun rises
it's losing out on power
my heart racing faster
you're not getting any nearer
my eyes not looking any further
for beside me lay another
but like a purple blossom,
I put a spell on you
that when the night falls
the little fire glows
in my bosom eternal.
So I Put a spell on you
words cannot describe
that in your heart
my love you'll forever inscribe
it's as wild as the river flows
that with each morning
in my eyes you'll forever glow.
I put a spell on you
that you may find no substitute
so like the rose
you remain my pulchritude
from words said so carelessly
I wonder why i cant let you go
for I put a spell on you
the day I said for ever I do.

If this is love

though her perfume fills the room
you're all day home with you alone
she's unaware of the last word you said
she's lying on her back
and before you turn yours
she's dancing with the stars.
you speak and when she does
the rules are laid and the bound is placed
too much in love
that her questions don't hurt
tough love you love
but what's the point
2 hearts slowly draining?
or two hearts just used to each other,
if that's love-then i don't want.
her stories never end
automatically yours shouldn't too
so she thinks, and when there is none
are you seeing someone else?
where is the trust?
she'll find it in the last text that came in
one room 2 hearts worlds apart
you try to think how this ever came to being
at that point-she touches the right spots
you feel as if you've been wrong
yet no trace of guilt
is this still love?-then something ain't right.
you finally said i do
ofcourse to all and anything she'd wish
it's only a couple minutes away
honey i need you to get that from the store
you get back and like before
she's zipped tight but
this time dancing with the stars
all you asked for was a simple meal
while you went on errand to the mill
bro if this is ur love-i sure ain't seeing you in it.
you finally get the courage to talk
she says it's you who's been changing
makes me wonder didn't she know you before
i wonder too, well that's all you can do
and then you wake to cock-a-do
from the alarm she left a note in-that read
it didn't have to be this way...you feel the same too
but as usual it's all your fault for nat making things right
but i'm sure she forgot it takes 2 to tangle
and she could have tried too.
if this is love-i'd sell my heart never to feel it.

Colours of my love

A woman pure as white
yet as naughty as red can be.
as humble as the lowly black
dignified beyond compare like purple
no less richer than yellow in all
but as ordinary as orange can be
my reason for survival just as green
couldn't be more simple a little like brown
and like indigo a heart so deeply full of love
eyes just as magenta I can't stop looking at
and a touch so soft feels like burgundy.

Unfailing Friend

For you brought me into the joyful morn
outta the storms on the seas of the night
kept me through the evil shadows of the day
into the peace of the serene evening
took my little light in the corner
and brightened the night
the little stream of water
out of whom living waters revived the land.
And so every second of each day
is another chance for me to give you praise
for you've been wonderful in so many ways
even in this hardcore life
the reason why i ask for the grace
to survive this tiring race,
for your eyes are on the tiniest cells
to largest of things you made
I know you're watching me
and so a wonderful peace me got ina me soul
and a heart; joyful unspeakable
because you've made me whole.
Even for every breath i take,
another reason to thank you
for you've been there through my oppression
and even when me feel lonely
i know you ain't gone but I have walked
I'm so glad for i got a friend never turning back on his word
And so for each chance you gave
those that I took and those i didn't
I bless you real good
and for your eyes are on all you made
Lord I know you're watching over me.
