Something i wrote a few months back..i was inspired by Roberta Flack .`the first time ever i saw your face`


you say a word so simple,and make it, so beautiful   
you catch my smile,and i`m ever the fool.
if you can stop a while ,that will surely do
and if you stay, i will stay next to you.

what  love can i give , that  won`t return,  a thousand fold
and in  this love i  will  burn ,and in  your  arms i have learned
whisper my name ,till  i  grow  old..
show me your light ,protect me from this world

you touch  my  soul ,and  i  lose  control.....
you sing to me,a song ,from long ago.
i feel such happiness,like a child at play
tears in my eyes the colour of a  Chardonnay

you catch my smile,and i`m ever the fool
and i`m ever the fool...
..
and it feels so beautiful..

....
you say a word so simple,and make it so beautiful   
you catch my smile,and i`m ever the fool.
if you can stop a while ,that will surely do
and if you stay, i will stay next to you.


what  love can i give , that  won`t return,  a thousand fold
and in  this love i  will  burn ,and in  your  arms i have learned
whisper my name ,till  i  grow  old..
show me your light ,protect me from this world

but don`t leave me this night
with a  dark and lonely heart
i beg you stay,and take all my fears away

break all the rules
but don`t leave me lying here
for ever the fool  am i

for ever the fool
for ever the fool..am i....

I thought this was really nice. I especially liked the first two verses the most!

I really like this song - the lyrics are beautiful. I especially like the chorus.

Thanks for the replies...it`s meant for piano and a female voice....offered it to Flossie, but she`s not biting..cos it`s right up her street ..still other projects to be getting on with...maybe in the future.

you touch  my  soul ,and  i  lose  control.....

Very simple, building an easy picture. The way its written, its just so easy to engage and connect to the words

Superb interesting story of love and feeling insecure in a relationship, "if you stay" "protect me" "I beg you to stay" and the saddest line of  all for me, " break all the rules" I think it is very brave to put on such touching and bare feelings. 10/10 from me. Terry.
