Sitting on a park bench
one Autumn day
a little lost, a little sad,...a rose in his hand.
I said...kind of cool..don`t You think..
looks like rain today... beautiful rose"
who's it for? ..the old man smiled.
Its for My wife...
bless Her heart...
She out-lived Her memory..
though its sad... She can`t be here..
I`m going to sit, and have lunch with Her today.
We sat quiet...on that bench
a minute or two..He held the rose..
turned to Me..
and was the first to speak.
Chorus
Even though She doesn't know me
I know who She is, in this world, I will love Her
every moment that I live.
Through Our life, no regret
made the best of what We had...
and learned to dance.. a little in the rain"
I`ve gone down that same old path..
never found that old man.. again..
Sitting on a park bench
one Autumn day..
a little smile..a little laugh
and a rose in My hand....
She said...kind of cool..don`t You think...
looks like rain today....beautiful rose"
who's it for?...and I smiled.
Its for My wife
bless Her heart...
She is here with Me today...
in this world... I will love Her..
every moment that I live....
We sat quiet.. on that bench
a minute or two.. She held the rose
turned to me..
and I was the first to speak..
Chorus
No one knows Me
quit the way You do
in this world... I will love You..
every moment that I live...
make the best...no regrets..
"then We danced... a little in the rain... Shelby/ Vincent

Lane, the sentiment in this is lovely .
What a quiet luxury. To sit with a rose ... share a moment
or two .. andvend up dancing in the rain.
Moments like these ... well, they can be life-altering. I adore
the last stanza. It pleases a heart in the most charming way.
*sigh*

Both of you wonderful poets please close your eyes for a minute and imagine this for us. You two are in an auditorium performing these lyrics to music. And you look down to notice your crowd is entirely made up of ghost alarms wearing white masks with stiffened smiles carved upon the plaster, adorned with black robes. Our frail left hands are holding a single red rose and we are swaying to the music with frozen smiles upon our white paster faces, eyes appearing through the holes in our masks looking only at you two. When you have finished, we begin chanting in unison,
"we want more,
we want more,
we want more,
we want more"
though our voices are very monotone. This is the way we want to hear this song. In this way and only this way, we want more.
May you both in separate times be walking down a lonely road and hear footsteps behind you, only to turn around and notice that no one is there, but hear the tiny whisper of "we want more".
The Ghost Alarms

Heart warming set of lyrics you two have here. I like your collaborative efforts. You two seem in sink and though both of you have individual styles that I am deeply familiar with and could spot out of anonymous piles of YPDC poems when you two come together in words the individuality blends perfectly to make a unique voice that is all together different.
Again a wonderful job all around from both of you. Touching.
BRAVO!
