Simple nessecities

I am but the bird that sings in the morning before you're really ready to wake up

All I need is the tender response of my brothers on the wind

You whistle my name and it sounds so sweet

All I need is the love that touches me like a breeze

 

I am but the smell of springtime crisp on your tongue

All I need is the smile on your lips when you know that I have finally come to stay

You grin and say,

'This is my favorite season'

All I need is your sweet acknowledgement

 

I am but the words of a song

All I need is the driving thump of music to aid my flowing

You don't really know me but the way I sound is more than enough

All I need is your gentle humming that makes me think you're trying to learn

 

I am but the girl you love sitting in the seat beside you

All I need is a nudge on my knee to let me know you are there

I could live forever on the memory of your kisses if only you let me know you're there

I am but the girl you love waiting where ever you need me

All I need is your hand in mine, let me know you're there
