Tongue Tied

My tongue is tied

By my worried mind

Without my glasses, I’m slower than molasses

I’m far too blind

To enjoy my view

So I just write tunes

But even then, I can’t write sad songs when

My life is filled with you

If I am south, I follow the north star

You are my center, you’re never too far

From east to west, the sun rises and sets with you

Sunsets are sweet but they can’t compete with my view

Paint my days

Try to give me a way

To tell you you’ve had my heart from the very start

That Sunday

Now I fall more

With every passing hour

My heart’s a hive of busy bees

Buzzing ‘round a flower

You say more with your hazel eyes

Than some people say in their whole lives

I wonder if you would give me the time

To master the art of your xylophone spine

If I could just know I would play you a symphony

Meanwhile sit back and smile, enjoy these melodies
