When the world sleeps

We wander away…
Whiling our time every day.

When you are with me,
You don’t say a word.
So close, yet so far from you I feel.
Looks like the world,
Will beat us to it.
They are bound to win;
Tie us down, in the name of society.

Show me a sign,
Even a little one,
I won’t mind.
Show me a sign,
That you want to
Follow your heart;
Today and right through…

I’ll kick up a storm.
Get everyone to see,
That we were meant to be.
I’ll cajole them,
If that’s what it takes.

Trust me, I’m game,
To cross a million lakes
Of fire and, even dare
To climb, a few snow-capped peaks;
If that’s what it takes.

Let’s not wander away…
Doesn’t matter what the world will say.
Let the world sleep,
While we get back;
Get back to reality;
Surreal and so rare!

Never Alone for Long

The journey has brought
Me so far; the road winds,
The sunlight I caught,
Refreshes and even blinds.

So many people on the way.
Some shake my world,
And move away;
Some are here to stay,
Just a while longer,
Striking one more chord…

I turn to smile,
Say my goodbyes.
They say they’ll stay a while,
And see me through a few more miles…

I welcome this feeling;
Walking – never tiring.
Sometimes I feel lonely,
Look around and find company
Again; Every time I feel lonely.

Suddenly, something!

She has hurt you so much.
You are taking a different path.
She must have left you in a lurch;
Wish I could take you away from this wrath!
Show you that life is still beautiful,
Once again on your trodden path.
I will be so grateful;
Let me take you from your past…
Can’t say where we’ll go from here
But, baby I’ll make it last.
Atleast for this lifetime, here
On earth; we’ll be the perfect cast
I won’t let you get lost…

Open sea beckons

My mind is blank today.
I have no words to give you;
Have nothing to say;
Have told you everything that’s true;
Laid my heart open and bare.

I know it’s tough to love me;
I keep nothing hidden.
(but) there are secrets even I can’t see.
You can help me find them;
Together we’ll explore the sea!

Come back baby, explore the sea!
Morning, noon and even over tea…

I’ll let you find my spirit;
Show you that I can care;
There shall be no limit,
We’ll find each other everyday…
Good, bad and ugly – we’ll live with it!

I hardly know you,
And you me – I know.
Then why do I feel the way I do?
Even your thought brings a glow.
What I wouldn’t give… to hear you say this too!

Come back baby – with you…
I’ll explore this sea, so blue!

Take your chance with me

Sleep escapes me these days;
I lay awake, thinking
Of all those words unsaid.

I have nothing to promise you,
But this much I’ll confess –
This feeling of something special is true.
Nothing more, nothing less.

Others search a thousand times,
Looking for that spark,
Those wind chimes;
Groping in the dark.

We’ve been lucky,
Pushed together by chance.
Don’t tell me you can’t see,
An opportunity to do a magical dance!

Maybe I should let you be;
Gather your baggage,
And then come back to me;
Undo all the damage

Maybe I should just let you be!
Maybe I should just lay awake every night.
Maybe, just maybe… you’ll see my point.
