Straightforward Love Song

This is supposed to be a straightforward love song Direct and raw and dedicated right to you This is composed with all that's going on within me Everything I can say and all that I can do You see I want to find new words, new ways To say what's been known before Declarations to all that's going on in the core What's a cold heart? What's that way to sharing? Caught up again in a web of the self that's finespun? Well this is supposed to be a straightforward love song Connecting for what's special That bighearted fun But you know there's a terror to life And lovers live on the brink The anti romantic's worked out how you think But in that warm heart That gentle place of affection Come here my love and be near 'Cause this is supposed to be a straightforward love song Direct and raw, honest and clear Oh but I know we get lost Overtaken, erratic, confused Actions weigh heavy when instinct's abused So just yield now Reflect on that light on the raindrops See rose leaves twinkle resplendent in the sun 'Cause this is supposed to be a straightforward love song Anticipated Created We love it sometimes We might even hate it Can't hide those thoughts anymore They've got to be stated And tough times can be sore Tolerate it Dig down to the core Celebrate it And sing on and on A straightforward love song
