Exception to the rule

Sometimes when I open my eyes
I can’t believe you are there
When it’s cold and it seems like the sun will never rise
You hear me, and show you care
I don’t believe in miracles but you I can’t explain
I do believe that rainbows sometimes come out after rain
I can’t believe there’s half a chance to find a perfect fit
You’re exceptional – you’re it
In the dark, when it seems like I’ll never find my way
You find me, and lead me home
I love you and that’s the way it’s going to stay
And you and I will never be alone

Boy in the window
what do you see?
Give me the down low
and what is your fee?
Did I ever stand a chance
or were they using weighted dice?
Is it safe now to advance
or should I stay and pay the price?
Boy in the window
what do you think?
Should I take it slow
taking care not to blink?
Am I going in the lair
of a strange and brutal beast?
What can I do to prepare
and get my risk of death decreased?
Boy in the window
what did you hear?
Don’t be a hero
no, don’t get too near!
Did you hear a frightened scream
or the sound of breaking glass?
Might it have been just a dream
and a feeling that will pass?
Boy in the window
what do you know?
Tell me the info
I won’t let it go!
On the surface all seems well
but I know it’s a facade
You have the power to dispel
the lies we’ll disregard
Boy in the window
what will you do?
Don’t keep me in limbo
it’s time that I knew!
I see darkness in your soul
and malevolent intent
If jealousy will take control
there’ll be too much to repent

Looking back
To where this all started
You suppose
You could’ve been more guarded
But you chose
To stand up where others opted out and let things fall
It was the right thing to do
For one and all
You assumed
You were in safety
Who could tell
The level of frailty
Then you fell
To find out that others jumped to kick you when you’re down
Their reputations protected
And you’re the clown
And you say…
I won’t take it any more
I won’t take it any more
To all of those
Who take liberties
You can’t touch me now
Because I am free
And
I won’t take it any more
A new start
And new aspiration
Most of all
Avoid subjugation
Self control
To show them that you can focus on your determined goals
All while resisting temptation
To reprise past roles
You’re now reinvented
Repeat is prevented
You are skeptical
Can’t take you for a fool
Look after number 1
Coz when all’s said and done
It’s every man for himself
Or end up on the shelf
Your eye’s on the door
Coz you know there is more
You won’t wait around
Other options abound
You’re in it for you
To yourself you are true
When there’s no more to gain
You’ll be straight on that train

I hold your hand
Not like we planned
The time to depart is approaching
Our eyes then meet
You get to your feet
The crowds around us encroaching
But I can see your face is saying you don’t want to go
I’m holding back a tear on case my feelings start to show
If all we’ve got is here and now
I know I’ll make it through somehow
For all the fields I have to roam
I know I’ll find my way back home
The love you gave me will sustain
Through all the anguish and the pain
Because I know at last it’s true
I belong to you
The weeks drag by
Although I try
I can’t make them pass any faster
A FaceTime call
Or write on my wall
Only serves as a sticking plaster
At last it’s time to go and meet you at the station
And as I see your face I can’t hide my elation
This has to end
Or I’ll descend
Into madness, and some kind of confinement
So I decree
‘Cause I can see
The planets are all in alignment
My decision was not hard I hope that you can see
Now I have a question for you, I’m down on one knee

Dancing on the beaches

We are dancing on the beaches
We are dancing on the landing grounds
We are dancing in the fields and in the streets
We are dancing in the hills
We shall dance forever
