stoney walks
under the stars
your voice in my ear
i cannot reach you
i cannot kiss you
but your voice is in my ear

you know,
the driveway is the most comfortable place to lie
when you're telling me "i love you"
and the dark hazy humid night
is perfect weather
when it's shared with you... across the miles,
with your voice in my ear

as I wish on shooting stars
giggling,
"i won't tell you what i wished for"
even though you know... you already
know
baby
it's you...
it's you i wished for
it's you i wish for.

everyday.

but i don't need a star to fly across the purple sky
i've got your voice in my ear
under the stars
with a promise of a future
with my favorite wish.

staying up late with
your voice in my ear...
your voice in my ear...
i'll be tired tomorrow
but it doesn't matter
i've got your voice in my ear...

<3

    i really like this
    You ask me to enter
    But then You make me crawl
    And I can't be holding on
    To what You got
    When all You've got is hurt
    ----
    Underneath this smile lies everything
    All my hopes and anger, pride and shame

    jessie has a gift.. 'tis undeniable :)
    Down the street you can hear her scream youre a disgrace
    As she slams the door in his drunken face
    And now he stands outside
    And all the neighbours start to gossip and drool
    He cries oh, girl you must be mad,
    What happened to the sweet love you and me had?
    Against the door he leans and starts a scene,
    And his tears fall and burn the garden green

    Me too...and it brought back memories for me as well, of feelings I'd long forgotten. The driveway line is my favourite line.

    omg! I so remember how that felt! Me and El Kabong meet through this very message pit and feelings grew until it was just unbearable.He lived in VA and me in SC. But now we live together and have been together for 4 months, I've never been happier!
    Good Luck and don't let go!

    this is my favorite comment. it gives me hope, ya know. :) that you guys are together after a while of being so far apart. it gives me hope (extra hope than I already had :)) that I'm going to be with my perfect person one day. i hope it's very soon. because i'm so in love with him. and nothing would make me happier than having him in my arms someday. :)

    thanks so much, abookamongstthemany. that comment just put a happy tear in my eye. :)

    and p.s.: i don't plan on letting go. :)
