...ode to no one

you came out of nowhere
a breath of fresh air
oblivious i may have been
now things i have seen

the promise of a heart
of a wonderful start
with the touch of your hands
and the thrill of would be kiss
the longing of what could be
the very thought delights me

the pull so strong
what could ever go wrong
when a promise of tomorrow
is a seed needing to be sowed

one step is all is needed
one decision to start it all
a leap of faith, with God's full grace
and a willing body and soul

take my hand my dear
allow me to take all your fears
to wipe away dried up tears
as i know you will do the same
and make all that's wrong disappear

i wanna touch the earth
i wanna break it in my hands
i wanna grow something wild and unruly

i wanna sleep on the hard ground
in the comfort of your arms
on a pillow of bluebonnets
in a blanket made of stars

oh it sounds good to me, i said

cowboy take me away
fly this girl as high as you can into the wild blue
set me free, oh i pray
closer to heaven above and closer to you, closer to you

i wanna walk not run
i wanna skip and not fall
i wanna look at the horizon
and not see a building standing tall

i wanna be the only one
from miles and miles
except for maybe you
and your simple smile

oh it sounds good tome
yes, it sounds so good to me
