Fantasy no longer satisfies me.
I need your touch; your empathy;
Your soft, moist lips; your warm embrace;
Your loving eyes; your exquisite taste.

When we're together, you are my all,
My Summer, Winter, Spring and Fall
You soothe away the pain and fuss,
When you and I become just 'us'.

Sometimes my jealousy betrays me.
Although I know you never would.
A little voice inside persuades me
that if I turned away you could.

I always want to let you in,
But every time I start,
I fear my fumbling touch wil crush
the petals of your heart.

I've worked out some chords for this. They're a bit generic, but they might give a better feel for the song for anyone who's interested. I'll put them up so I can remember them, anyway.

Am Aminmaj7
Fantasy no longer satisfies me.
Am7 Em
I need your touch; your empathy;
F G
Your soft, moist lips; your warm embrace;
Am G
Your loving eyes; your exquisite taste.

the delicate petals of your heart.

That came out wrong. Anyone know how to keep spaces?

This is wonderful!

Your last line pulls on me most as it is my very fear.

Thank you for sharing.

(You expressed yourself well.)

Thanks Angel

I was inspired by what you said yesterday, so I thought I'd have a go.

I feel wierd just posting random "Good work"s and "Fantastic"s so I try to keep my compliments for the pieces I really enjoy. I'm a sucker for meter, and things that can sound good to the ear without meaning as well as the meaning behind the words, this is good stuf.
