A Melody Unknown

You waltzed into my life and danced with my soul
Tangoed with my heart to a melody unknown
We moved and touched and swayed all around
Composing love to each other without making a sound

The dance floor is open and empty and pure
Allowing us to grow and learn and be sure
That everything we wanted in life and beyond
Would solidify our passion our desire and bond

For in this life we have but one time to dance
With the one who stole our heart by chance
Take them by the hand and lead them to the floor
Before the music stops and you're alone forever more.

Day Surrenders To Night

Why do you stand in the back of my mind
Fading away with the sands of time
I close my eyes and you're all I see
Whispers of what was once you and me

Memories fade from black to white
Leaving scars of what always seemed right
Painful thoughts of what could have been
If you had only just let me in

I think of all the years we've lost
Riding along the waves and tossed
I think of the long journey that was ours
Never having an end of days or hours

But the day surrendered to night

What will become of this heart of mine
How will it stand the test of time
Will it always have a beat for you
Even when there is someone new

How on earth will I love again
When deep inside there's so much pain
When will the beat of my broken heart
Start pounding in me the will to start

For on the horizon the sun does shine
Brighter and brighter with the hands of time
I open my eyes in hopes that I'll see
Someone standing there waiting for me
