Marvo (Andy)

It's just a dream
A dream that you can never awake from
It creates endless images in your mind
And streams sound directly to your brain
...

And as he lay there on the bed the past played out inside his head…If only he had had the chance he would have loved her in ways that she had never been loved. For reasons she had never been told, and for longer than she would have ever thought she had deserved.
If he had only had the chance he would have loved her with more passion than she ever knew existed inside of him.
But nothing ever felt right in her life, so 'his' life could never be complete.
And all he knew was that whatever he may amount to, she would always be the rest of him.
...

It seems these days are getting shorter
and our nights are growing longer
We are lost in a world that we never asked for
And were never told about
...

I've been waiting oh so long for her
And I'll wait for her always like I do
Like I always do
I'm just sat here and waiting for the heartache
...

I don't know you - but I know I love you
For I have felt you for so long
You're my every word in every song
And everything I write, I write for you
...

Walking away, he held his head high
Too proud to spill out the words that filled his mouth
Over and over to himself he repeated
The only clear thought inside his head
...

She was an unhappy child,
left home at just thirteen
No more a child, not quite adult,
but somewhere in between
...

He'd always been a dreamer
So often had his fingers burnt
Determined to keep dreaming
I guess he never learnt
...

There was a new me in the mirror,
for the old me was now lost
And although there hadn't been a trade in,
you wouldn't believe the cost
...

Softly spoken words with a wonderful inflection
Fall from her mouth with a graceful fragility
Allied to a wonderful simplicity.
Her professed shyness, slowly eroding and replaced
...

I put my feelings in the bottle
Later I'll throw it in the sea
But I hope nobody finds it
And then attempts to rescue me
...

Easter was upon us
And we were talking
As we had not done for a long time
"It feels so good" I said
...

She was basically a good girl
Though for sure she had some flaws
And she fought an inward battle
Never stopping for a pause
...

In the park that no-one went to
we ran like children through the long grass
and the warmth of the sun
dried our tears before they fell down.
...

I tore up each one of my pictures of you
But the one that's inside me remains
It's here in my heart and it goes to my head
Time and again and again
...

There's a man who walks along the shore
With a mirror in his hand
He claims that he protects us all
From things we hadn't planned
...

Where has the old me gone?
lost in a February day
I can't tell you how long it will be
until I know if he's come back to me.
...

Dragged into the basement
where the night demons roam
in the darkest of darkness
that you've ever known
...

There are things that hide and reside, deep inside of me
Trapped moments that never got their chance to shine
Wonderful feelings that never got shared with you
Forever now, aborted moments in time
...
