I Wish

I wish

You will be chocolate,
I will be cream,
We’ll mix together 
In one crazy dream.
Cream will thicken
With every whip,
Chocolate-sweeten
With every sip.

I will be day,
You will be night.
Some will say
Say it ain’t right.
But what do they know?
When the lights are down-
We’re just fifty shades of brown.

You are a black cat,
I am white mouse.
You are black bow tie,
I am cream blouse.
Some will say colors don’t mix,
But it feels so good we kiss

bridge:

People hate each other 
For being black or white
People kill each other
For being black or white
They say choose one or the other,
Either black or white.
Is it right?

Let’s be together as long as it lasts
Sharing our colorful past.
Without white lies, without dark frowns,
We’re just fifty shades of brown.

50 shades of Brown

Screaming rain outside 
won’t wake you up.
The end looks ugly, 
like a whore without make up.
I will pick up my shoe – 
Cinderella once more -
Dreams turned into rags after midnight.

I’ve got nothing to take; 
I’ll leave you the key.
The tap in the kitchen 
will be weeping for me.
The bedside table 
won’t take sides,
The pillow will keep my secret.

I will whisper a kiss 
instead of good-bye 
To your tired lips, 
and shadows under eyes,
To dirty hotels 
and low expectations
To your forehead – a messy bed of lies.

instrumental

Empty bottle on the window sill,
Forgiving me from the seventh floor
Like a messenger, 
bearing bad news
It will be smashed 
to little sharp truths
When you wake.

When you Wake

This was taken off "by a signed in user"- even though this is my original song. No explanation was ever provided. It took less time for someone to take it off than for me to write and record this song and I am determined to fight.
