Once Upon A...

j meridian January 7, 2011
Once upon a time 

There were tales of men like you

who were chivalrous and cavalries

With horses riding through

You rescued women, men and child

And brought them safely home

Set them warmly on their chairs

And whispered Tennyson poems

Til they fell asleep and dreamt all night of better days ahead
it's just what you do, it's just what you do

Through the distance i can see 
a simple girl like you 
who is standing tall and gentleness

You're all that's kind and true

But I don't just want you to... rescue me

and then leave me, quietly...

Don't just rescue me off this mountain top, then slip away out of sight

Cause I need you for more than poems and songs

You're the only one that I want

It's more than what you do

It's just who you are, who you are

you're in my heart



Now upon my lonesomeness

I wonder where you are
well I 
Look upon the midnight stars and 
wish upon them all And I 
wonder if you see me as more than just another girl
Who needs someone to rescue me

Don't just rescue me from this mountain top, then slip away out of sight

Cause I need you for more than poems and songs

You're the only one that I want

don't just rescue me from this mountain top, and then slip away out of sight

cause i love you more than even life itself

you're the only one that i want

it's not just what you do
it's who you are, who you are
you're in my heart...
