Oh, The Things You Do

by Serena   Nov 8, 2005


Youre walking my way,
I feel chills down my spine
Im just longing for the day,
When Ill make you mine

Oh darling the things you do to me,
Though certainly not new to me,
Confuse and confound me nonetheless
Theres a surge of emotions I cant seem to suppress

Although Im not one to let life pass me by,
When you look my way all I do is sigh
And those eyes, oh those eyes! How they make my heart pound
Oh the things you do to me when youre around!

Oh, you make me feel weak
My breath cant be caught
Theres no words left to speak

Standing next to me now
You perplex me some how
Cause I cant understand whats going through your head
Do you want me in a friendship or want me in your bed?

A smile like a limousine and pink champagne
I get drunk off this love when I ought to abstain
I tumble and turn til I fall to the ground,
Oh the things you do to me when youre around!

Speak with me awhile
Ill float down the honey stream of your words
Entice me and beguile
And Ill soar on the wings of the birds

As I indulge in your conversation
I run away with my imagination
Not of white picket fences and kids playing in the park
But the clarity of the senses when laying in the dark

Visions of what I want to be overwhelm each waking hour
Though my thoughts you torture constantly, its my dreams that you empower
And these dreams that beseech me, are so clear and so profound!
Oh the things you do to me when youre around!

Youre walking away
Ive missed my chance once more
Until I get to try another day
Your memory I shall implore

The flush and the thrill that you leave behind
Are all I have to deceive my mind
Ill wander at night thinking what might have been,
Such as a late evening talk or an early morning sin

Yet its just a facade, none of its real
No more than a I feeling I try to conceal
My heart is broken, my emotions unwound,
Oh the things you do when youre not around...
