Saved | POEM

Saved
Written by Christopher L. Williams

You make the days worth living, the nights so warm
You make me feel like I'm top of the world
It all happened when you said you'd be my girl
I was lost at sea, in some raging storm
You brought me out of that tempest, to dry land
You awakened me with just the touch of your hand
Your love flooded me like a mighty swarm

You have saved me from a world of pain
I walked the road that some call "lonely"
You have put a lot of faith in me
I'll always remember dancing in the rain
Seems like we washed away all the bad
Replaced with memories of the love we have
Hard to believe I had so much to gain

If You Weren't Around | POEM

If You Weren't Around

Couldn't find water in the pouring rain
Couldn't win first, if I were the only one in the game
If I had loaded dice, seven would never be rolled
I bet I'd never find snow in a blizzard or the cold
That's just how my luck has always been
I'm so unlucky it should be a sin
If I fell, I'd never hit the ground
That's how it'd be, if you weren't around

I'd be lost at sea without any oars
Seems I always found all the closed doors
Couldn't hit water, if I fell out of a boat
Lady luck would think this is some kind of joke
Nothing good would ever happen to me
I thought that's how things would always be
Always getting kicked, even when I'm down
That's how it'd be, if you weren't around

Don't Sing Me the Blues | POEM

Don't Sing Me the Blues

Don't sing me the blues
I can do it on my own
I tried to forget you
but I only remember you're gone
I tried with booze, but its no use
I don't know what i did wrong
So, don't sing me the blues
I'll do it on my own

You left me without warning
And to drown in my own tears
You were so charming
Now you've left me in fear
You were my darling
Now you're not here

Don't sing me the blues
I can do it on my own
I still miss you
But you left me all alone
To tell the truth, I thought we'd pull through
This thing we had is over, gone
So, don't sing me the blues
I'll do it on my own
