Lyrics

Verse 1

Who are you We just met 

I’m curious and yes you’ve peaked my interest 

I’ll risk it it cuz I’m interested 

yes I’m risking it

I don’t wanna get hurt this time 

but I want to keep trying to find 

someone to share a piece of mine 

in my life time

Prechorus

Share some piece of mine

It may take a lifetime to find you

My piece of mine

You fill my darkness with light

Chorus

You give me peace of mind (piece of mine)

No holding back

All my sides

I share everything this time (share everything)

My emptiness fills will light

You fill me you fill me you fill me

Verse 2

Yes I know I am a mess

Far from perfect I confess

I keep trying to be selfless I’ll do my best 

but I’m a mess

And I will catch you when you fall

Be there with you through it all

So when you need me call on me

I’ll give you all of me

Prechorus

Share some piece of mine

It may take a lifetime to find you

My piece of mine

You fill my darkness with light

Chorus

You give me peace of mind (piece of mine)

No holding back

All my sides

I share everything this time (share everything)

My emptiness fills will light

You give me peace

No holding back this time

I’ll share everything

My emptiness fills with light

Bridge

Let me rock you with this lullabye (lullaby lullaby lullaby)

Love is like the sweetest nursery rhyme (nursery rhyme nursery rhyme)

Like kids on the swings flying to the evergreens

On a summer dream

I give you piece of mine let me rock you with this lullabye

Chorus

You give me peace of mind (piece of mine)

No holding back

All my sides

I share everything this time (share everything)

My emptiness fills will light

You give me peace  (piece of mine)

No holding back this time

I’ll share everything (share everything)

My emptiness fills with light

Let me rock you with this lullabye

You fill me you fill me you fill me

Lyrics

Verse 1

I see you when I close my eyes

Your smile is so divine

It brings me joy at all times

So when I feel sad – I close my eyes

When i’m mad – close my eyes

When I’m bad I close my eyes

To bring you bad

Prechorus

Take away my defenses

The healing of your hands makes me forget

You tickle all my senses

I’ll never forget you

Chorus

Time stops when I’m with you

The clock stops ticking (the clock stop ticking with you)

I have it all – all with you – nothing is missing (nothing is missing with you)

I want all – all of you – every single part of you

Even though alone, I am whole

I am whole

Verse 2

I feel you kiss when I close my eyes

Wet moist lips

Your smile

I hear your voice in my mind 

Whispering love as I close my eyes

Singing me sweet I fantasize

You come when I close my eyes

You drive me mad

Pre chorus

Take away my defenses

The healing of your hands makes me forget

You tickle all my senses

I’ll never regret you

Chorus

Time stops when I’m with you

The clock stops ticking (the clock stop ticking with you)

I have it all – all with you – nothing is missing (nothing is missing with you)

I want all – all of you – every single part of you

Even though alone, I am whole

I am whole

Bridge

This moment will never happen again

This moment will never remain

All that is shall to pass

I enjoy the process

WIth passing moment time accelerates – I know

What I desire will never manifest

I accept

This is the process

Chorus

Time stops when I’m with you

The clock stops ticking (the clock stop ticking with you)

I have it all – all with you – nothing is missing (nothing is missing with you)

I want all – all of you – every single part of you

Even though alone, I am whole

I am whole

New Single: i love

“i love” is a rock ballad, a song about finding love in the present moment, seeing it in the small details. It was written in Glen Park as I walked through the beautiful canyon, observing the trees, listening to the birds singing, and hearing people’s footsteps behind.
