A Bit of Sensibility

July 29, 2005: this was five days before we got together, officially. i actually composed something for him, i called it 'a bit of sensibility':

when at night i'd close my eyes

to the thought of you beside me

it reaches out to the depths of my soul

that it will never be, what should have been

maybe you need someone to urge you

someone to say its true

a little push to your limits

somewhat higher than a mountain's summit

a moment in a day with you

seems like forever in a day

and it goes on to point of no return

where life may change without discern

if you could only feel what i feel

maybe then you'd feel what's real

if you had a bit of sensibility

maybe then you'd notice me

if you had a bit of sensibility

you could ask me for a dance

under the brilliant stars of romance

or maybe sing a song for me

you could hold me under the fairy lights

breathe the air you're breathing

climb a few mountains to their utmost heights

and from there take view of scenic sights

i can love you all my life

or let you go with all regrets

chain you in my heart

knowing it's broken from the start

maybe i could live a day or two

and die as soon as i hear what's true

i can smile for moment

and say you're heaven sent

but if you had a bit of sensibility

you could ask me for a dance

under the brilliant stars of romance

or maybe sing a song for me

but if you go

i want to let you know

i can shake the heavens with my cries

and fill the earth with tears from my eyes

but if you could only feel what i feel

maybe then you'd see what's real

if you had a bit of sensibility

maybe then you'd notice me

-- it's an original. i hope you like it.
