Flying
by Telephoneman (April 1st, 2006)

Finally, finally I decided how I'd come, yes I found a way to get where you are
I decided to soar like an eagle high above, and to come to your flying through the air
It's a bird, it's a plane, it's a guy coming your way, with blue eyes and a guitar in hand
A suitcase or two, and hope in his heart, ready to make a new start

If it took doing battle with a great big bird, one that could carry me all of the way
The my sword would I take, and I'd win that big bird, and I kindly climb on his back
On the runway we'd go, down the runway we'd go, until finally up in the air
To my Flower I'm coming, to see her at last, to that island oh so very far

I'll cut through the wind, like a sharp iron knife, piercing clouds as I pass them all by
My desire is you, love, my passion is you, and I'm flying to find what I want
On landing that plane I'll find your close kin, and he'll sweep me back to mt room
Later on we'll all dine near your store and we'll have a great time

I'm so happy my Flower, to climb aboard that airplane, to climb into the air toward you
I've planned it very well, and this is all that I want, and I'm finally coming at last
Got some things to bring with me, and some music to share, and a heart full of the deepest desire
I long to see you, touch you, feel you, to hold your warm touch in my hand

I thought I would swim, but I didn't have to swim, and I thought I would row, but I didn't have to row
I would fly, by the air, through the air, in the air, to you, where you are, waiting for me, watching
Yes, good things are going to start very soon, things that will make us both very glad
Just fall in my arms, and let me hold you so close, let me hear your breath as you breathe

I want you, I need you, I'm coming to you, and I'm flying even before I take-off
My body is here, but my spirit is already there, as it has come little piece by little piece
Soon my body will be there, with my spirit and you, and my delight will be in your smile
To see your eyes shine, to see your pretty smile, to just stand there and take it all in

My life's greatest joy is about to unfold, as we meet and we fly to the same place
We two can then love, we can embrace, and we can share whatever pleasures nature will unfold
Come to me, my love, and don't be shy, I'll show you my strength and my strong arms
My fingers that heal, and my hands that will hold, never weary of bringing you hope

Can you see it, can you feel it, can you close your eyes and envision
The same thing that I can see, as if looking out over the ocean, feel the breeze in your face
It's about to begin, as I fly toward you, this wonderful wonderful love
I need you, I want you, I would do anything to get to you, let nothing stand in my way

To nuzzle your neck, to smell your sweet perfume, to let you smell my cologne in return
Yes, to be THAT close, that is what I want, in private times, in private ways, we can share
To cuddle with you, to relax in your arms, to have your head on my chest
I'm not afraid to let you know what I want, it warms you, it touches you, it turns you on...

So, I'm flying to you, but I'm flying already and for months I've been flying and flying
My flower, my woman, sweet lady, you're awesome, I want to tell you this all of your life
My eyes they will see you, my hands they will at last feel you, and you'll be right there before me
I am so happy, so joyful, so exhilarated, so excited, and yes, so turned on...

The hope light is floating, the hope it is lit, and we should let it just float right on up
Because it is oh so rare that two people like this meet, it is something to cherish on end
I'm flying to you, baby, I'm coming your way, I'm boarding that jet and taking off
And I feel you are waiting... so happy... so waiting... to see this Michigan man

I'll be there by the 'morrow, I'll see you as the sun sets, I'll warm my belly with some food
The whatever the night paints, I'm sure we'll both appreciate, knowing well that we are together at last
Like magnets we are pulling toward one another calling, and the force is drawing us near
Open our hearts, sweet Jesus, Father God and the Spirit, let us love is my only prayer

wow, very nice...like an entirely different side of you.

I have many sides, and until someone really gets to know me, my most common side is a repellent side because of years of being mistreated and now not trusting anyone at the onset... but I am a very deep and compassionate man... a true romantic that sends flowers, writes poetry, and knows how to share emotions... but... very few do I ever allow to see inside of who I really am... it is a special place, and I have learned to not cast my pearls before the swine...

I'm sort of like one of those many sided dice:
