Beautiful Stranger.

This is something I wrote a few years ago and found today, I liked it so I though I'd share it, enjoy.

Beautiful Stranger

Beautiful stranger,

You hold in your hands something so oddly familiar

Did you go searching for it or purchase it from a gypsy

The last time I saw this, it was nothing but shattered pieces of broken dreams

I never knew it could have held such shine or been so pure, 

But I fear you've been misled, cause I've bled dry of second chances

That which you hold is only what I could have been

If I'd stayed on the straight and narrow, walked the line

I would have kept my pearls from the swine

If I knew that you could have been mine

I know of a God whose grace is vaster then the sea

But that gift must be yours, for my oceans lay cracked and bare

Brave New World

Brave New World

I've said my final farewells to the boy I was

Now I'm standing at the edge of this brave new world

Where everything's changed and yet it's somewhat the same

The grass was always greener somewhere out there,

But darling it's never seemed so brighter right here in front of me

Like someone's taken the scales from my eyes

Like I've shed my skin and every things new

I've got an ace up my sleeve and my dear it's you

I know you think I'm just a silly boy with the shallow gift of laughter

But give me one chance and I swear I'll be the very love your after

Run with me; hand in hand let's discover this mysterious land

We'll teach this world how to love again, learn them how to live

And if you forgive my mistakes I promise to forget your perfection

Pushing the thoughts of failure back into the darkness they came from
