Off My Skin

Watching youth get lost in each other
That whole life just blew over me
Fingers clasped in the hands of another
In the search of loves good company.

A single man is happy with nothing.
No ego bruised no monogamy.
While broken hearts concede to stop loving.
It's not the future I see.

But I just can't get you off my skin
Can't wash you away from within
You're so good that it hurts - perfection is worse.
Tell me where have you been.

I just can't get you off my clothes
That perfume you wear takes hold
You're sent from above
Lips stained with your love
Tell me what's it gonna be.

There's a love struck fool in the corner
Turns out he's me.
All this time I'm the one who's out of order
How can I disagree

Don't you know that since you came in my life
Everything just turned around
All this time I thought that I'd been neglected...
But you're nature perfected.

CHORUS

And it amazes me how you have changed my life
And it amazes me how you have changed me
And it's evident - as these days go by
This is heaven sent loving you lately.

Storm

Storm's coming in
Clothes wearing thin
Body worn like stone
Summer's been and gone

Ooooohhhh

Storm's coming in
Patience wearing thin
Or your heart is worn like stone
Oooh you've been and gone

Ooooohhhh

If the door should close
And you go down your road
I pray this moment will pass
And you and I will last

Pages and Ink

On the dusty ground was a
Brown book - leather bound inside
Pages worn and proud inside
Your words were what I found

Pressed in bold
And all the feelings that you wrote
All your quotes
Stories and anecdotes

Every line rang true as you
Told me how you grew and
All the girls whose hearts changed you - the times
Of a man I somehow knew

Just what he'd be
And how your life reflects in me
I find peace
In the lifetime that I read

So here I stand like a stranger
See how time changed my behaviour
A once wild man who was carefree
A laugh and a smile of someone that used to be
