Something Green (April 12)

With warmer weather comes the growing of the

Today I Saw

Today I Saw

Green means rain on the radar.  I'm craving sun
and warmth.

Here comes the rain again
Falling on my head like a memory
Falling on my head like a new emotion
I want to walk in the open wind
I want to talk like lovers do
I want to dive into your ocean
Is is raining with you?

So baby talk to me
Like lovers do.
Walk with me
Like lovers do.
Talk to me 
Like lovers do.

Give

Give

I've got to keep you pleased in every way I can
Gonna give you all of me
As much as you can stand
Make love to you right now, that's all I want to do.

I know you need it, girl, and you know
I need it, too
'Cause I found what the world is searching for
Here, right here, my dear
I don't have to look no more
And, oh, my babe, I hoped and I prayed for someone
Just like you to make me feel the way you do.

Never, never gonna give you up
I'm never, every gonna stop
Not the way I feel about you
Girl, I just can't live without you.

I'm never every gonna quit,
'Cause quitin' just ain't my schtick
I'm gonna stay right here with you
Do all the things you want me to.

"Never, Never Gonna Give You Up"
- Barry White

Zen

Zen

Feeling the sand between my toes. 

Rain dogs howl for the century
A million dollars at stake
As you search for your demi-god
And you fake with a saint
There's no sex in your violence
There's no sex in your violence.

Try to see it once my way
Everything Zen
Everything Zen
I don't think so.

"Everything Zen"
- Bush
