Ralph O'Grantson

Just a second, no a minute, maybe more
With Him I wish to spend eternity
His touch is golden, so uplifting, hands so strong
Im sure he is my destiny
...

Still no answer
No sign of music
Full with anger
I watch time tick
...

Hurrying off in a hurry
The damsel left the cottage
Nelly had gobbled up nearly
The bread and sizzling porridge
...

Into the womb i was birth
Put me back
Love from no one I get, like a slave black
They eat me up like a quick snack
...

I love you, i know i do
Take my hand let's run away
Under the pale lit moon
All through the sun lit day
...

Eyes wild enough to tame the wild
your lips ripe as the berries in June
i touch your skin to realize how mild
one needs a cradle to handle you
...

i have to go back
they render too many lashes to my back
the chains and shackles bind me
on this foreign land i cannot be me
...

awwww what a wonderful day
i roll over and there she is
starring at the skyline with her bright smile
...

she fed me with the sweetest of poisons
she bathe me in the warmest cyanide
she clothed me with wool that felt like pins
yet it was love to me
...

shhh...there's nothing realer
how do you play my life so perfectly
sweet sound like a river
oh your awesome melody
...

it could blind the healthy eye
in-sanitize the most sane
hypnotically change a mind
that might never be the same
...

sleep my fellow sleep
your eyes are bulging
your body is craving for
sleep my fellow sleep
...

who is to blame
i only wanted to get to noe her
so why all this shame
love got me nowhwere
just like a game
...

im happy yet im sad
he came and took her away
i lie beside her almost mad
i cannot forget this day
...

i am so little i can't find me
i am so huge i find no spot
i am their air yet they ignored me
search your heart and tell me who i am
...

you are worth more
yet i have no money
i am that poor
but i swear to make you happy
...

tears filled her eyes as she spake
overcome with the gruesome memories
goosebumps did her words awake
the stories made our guts go wobbly
...

open your mouth wide
say it as it is
they might take out your teeth but smile
and blow to them a kiss
...
