Ruthless Love


Once there was a boy trying to be a man


He found a woman a live waiting for love


Famous protected by wealth and pride


Strong of will and soul giving every drop she had


Taking a chance in a dark corner seeing rebel


Edge of hood and angel voice taking no excuse


Fear not a word understood blade and face take no prisoners


She melted in his arms as the roar of the engine left protect in wake



 


Tribute is dropped in hours dead


Wendy grab my hand blue I said


Smiles of a private joke


Her bra found crush velvet floor


Color mixed in teenage dreams


Kisses from the ghetto to streams


Drunk again joy was left trim


From inside my bottle we live


Spin fast as the day cries hard


Pretty little soldier boy you know my name


Cried in the blood left a barroom floor


Bouncer showing the door liquid sunshine


Wants in a vision on stage cold


Zero to sixty 4.8 ballast blue bra


Lap love in creation given life tree


Adam and Eve tempted by Devil


Man and woman growing in passion


Song sung on a page we give tolerance


Waves lap against the rocking boat


Oars splash water as her kisses lift me


Her body a part of mine turns every truth


Learning so well the value of passion high


Sun turns the face and youth screams soft grass


Every taste is born fresh in her mind and mine


No inch not found or touched nor a feeling left unheard


Match in heaven and day singing so real our love pasted


Marks of joy shared in perfect harmony we stayed


Lived in many bottles seldom ever stayed past her


Wendy called me darling and signed letter just me


Kid did not know me as I tried to separate him from his brains


No please we live in only memories bodyguard and me met in a glass door


Fear in his eyes never met any one ready to die and take him along for the ride


Wendy touched me, you have to go, her kiss burned me to my soul, I cried for us


Big as a house, changed the game, and the rules, blood mixed, between us, nurse put me to sleep



Formal letter from the Greece, daddy says you are not what he wants, I love you forever, Walt, XXXOO, me...
