It's You

There wasn't a loud bang
not even my doorbell rang
as you into my life came
and lit again my dying flame

Yes, you, you, you!
Yes, you, you, you!
We're now one from two
Now that you're my boo

So I've always been told
I should never give a man a lot
But this man with the heart of gold
is certainly worth the shot

and
each time his eyes say I love you
I'd just smile an I love you too

Yes, you, you, you!
Yes, you, you, you!
We're now one from two
Now that you're my boo

Let's build a happy family
together we'll get old and wrinkly
And each time your eyes say I love you
I would just smile an I love you too!

Tale of the Everlasting Love

You are the most selfish creature I have ever encountered. You forced your love on me, knowing that it would not -in a million years- end good. You forced your love on me and broke my barriers: again and again.

Was ich dachte, als ich dir lange in die Augen blickte?
Chaos herrschte in mir. Ein großes Gewitter raste
blindwütig und schlug meine Mauer an.
Das Blaue deiner Augen war die Flut,
die ein Stück der Mauer stürzte.
Was ich dachte, als ich dir lange in die Augen blickte?
Chaos herrschte in mir, mein Liebling.

Again and again you broke the wings of all the promises you spat out of your sweet mouth. I can understand that the first time was just a foolish mistake, us being green and inexperienced. But how about the second, the third time? I have warned you to stay away and leave me be. But you just could not. You just had to come and force-feed me with your so called everlasting love.

Now that I am stripped bare and you have tasted every sweet honey I had, suddenly you are awake from your dream of being on cloud nine. Reality is catching up on you and you are fleeing from me, because us has become impossible.

Tell me again how you are not a prick for treating me the way you have been treating me?

"You can't tell someone to love you."

"You can't tell someone to love you." Dominic Toretto in the movie "Fast and Furious 7"
I just got back from the movie theater and those words keep on repeating themselves in my head over and over again like a broken tape.

You cannot tell someone to love you.
You cannot tell someone to love you.
You cannot tell someone to love you.

You just can't.

Now I realize that I have been doing it wrong the whole time.

Things you learn from action movies. Life is indeed full of surprises.

Do you remember how those fingers used to caress my face,
and those beautiful strong hands used to carry me to our room?
I still can recall very well how that mouth used to sing me sweet lullabies of love and hope,
how those lips used to kiss mine in the most gentle way.

But honey, they can only bring fear into my soul now.
Those lips, that mouth, those fingers, those hands,
you.
