SOME GRAND DESIGN – REPRISE

when you know that I want more
I’ve had a lover with no soul
and I don’t want that anymore

By Charles Robert Lindholm 

in the silence

of the darkness

in the backside of the night

my mind can hear the humming

of my heart

MY EYES NEVER LIED – REPRISE

By Charles Robert Lindholm 

How bold was I
to ask a Lady
with a broken heart
to trust me 

How brave was she

HOW LONG WILL YOU LET ME – BURN? – REPRISE

By Charles Robert Lindholm

How long will you let me – Burn?
in the fire you started
with your look
with your kiss
with your touch

When will you come
and Quench
the fire in my temple?

When will you let your
love flow all over me
and give me the relief
and the release from
the aching and pain
of the fire in my heart
and the fire in my soul
that you let – burn?

When will you quench
the fire you set in me? 

When will you be
will you ever be

Mine?

AN UNNAMED MUSE – REPRISE

She speaks to me
in the middle of the night
I wake to the silence
and hear, “You must write”

She tells me

and makes them so clear
as She whispers

I was six when you were born
growing up in different parts of the country
tender shoots in springtime
no way of knowing we’d ever meet
