[bodytext] => Laying with you With what we both knew Dark shades of blue, loud noises from the parking lot outside Let me stay here please Escape the bitter breeze In the city of lights we can be each other’s place to hide And we’ll both talk away Find a reason to stay And I can pray, that you’ll feel better sometime I can try my best You can do the rest Just don’t brush it all off as some romantic, sad crime If you should decide the cost After marking all you’ve lost I will be there to hear And after all the pain you’ve been through I’ll trade a little part of me for a little part of you Don’t you know? I’ve no where to go Don’t worry so; we’ve got all the time in the world And your wounds will cure At least of that I’m sure So just talk into morning with the blankets curled I met you one September night We were both poor of sight Drinking till we felt light, the tension just collapsed down And you wrote words on my arm Together and safe from harm Why do I have a crush? It just seemed to come around If you should decide the cost After marking all you’ve lost I will be there to hear And after all the pain you’ve been through I’ll trade a little part of me for a little part of you You might figure it out some day In some simple way And I might stay; remain a choice all along We’ll have no reason to cry For once we can try And it won’t be about what’s right and what’s wrong But for now just close your eyes Ignore your nightmare’s lies No one will surprise, I’ll guard you, dream And some tomorrow we can wake Without a mistake As we pass along in this crazy, fast stream And when you decide the cost Marking all you’ve lost I will be here to hear And after all the pain you’ve been through You’ll have your little part of me I’ll have my little part of you [comments] => 1 [counter] => 195 [topic] => 2 [informant] => Franciswolf [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => LovePoetry )
