I Can Not Do That Again
by Jef Peace

She softly glided into my life on golden velvet wings
Bringing laughter to my every day, ending my troubled dreams
Gently shaping my existence with a pattern of love and care
Bringing emotions to the surface I hadn't known were there
But what I was taking and what she was giving were simply not the same
I stood by watching helplessly as our life became a game
Of take and push and tug and pull instead of simply give
And all that's left are the memories of a life I never lived

And now I'm on the edge again because you've come along
Filling me with hope again, filling my life with song
Making me dream again, of that life I've never known
Causing the sun to shine again, with the love for me you've shown
Dare I dream or hope or love, dare I trust these feelings?
It's hard to think when we're together, you send my senses reeling
Your presence clouds the pain these feelings caused before
All I see or feel is you, the past behind a barred door.
