Give Me Another Beat

Slow and mellow – you keep me waiting
Over the weather – high and aching
Tap on my heart – Give me another beat

Throw me a pillow – one for taking
Naps beside you – awakening
Songs in my heart – Give me another beat

Blind till tomorrow in the sunshine
Covered all-over with the good times
Light up my heart – Give me another beat

Float like a feather – Life is so kind
You are the treasure I’ve waited to find here
Shine on my heart – Give me another beat

Fly like a sparrow in the summer
Through the heavens – above and under
Circle my heart – Give me another beat

One more message I’m not mistaking
When to follow or keep on saving
Dreams in my heart – Give me another beat

—Turn it up -break it down – Move along -stick around
—Give me one more beat to fill this song inside of me

—Turn it up -break it down – Move along -stick around
—Give me one more beat to fill this song

I want to be the girl you think I am

Your look is of the highest love – a peak on which I stand
Your touch is of a gentle breeze across my ocean sand
Your laugh is like a language only I can understand
I want to be the girl you think I am

Your promise is a thousand ropes tied in an endless band
Never to be broken – held by love in every strand
You’re holding all the balance of my world within your hands
I want to be the girl you think I am

Your happiness, a rising sun, shines throughout my land
Your courage is a timeless virtue shown to every man
Your whisper in my ear allows my heart to beat again
I want to be the girl you think I am

Your smile that never ages gently sweeps across my mind
It lifts my spirits high enough to leave this place behind
And with each hour of every day as rich as it began
I want to be the girl you think I am
