If I Should Ever
I live by the Spirit,
I die by the flesh
Baby, please forgive me,
if I should ever
not give you my best
You deserve nothing less
than my very best
You always are worthy of
my best chocolate chip warm oven love
I will let every curious eye
that passes by,
know in a heartbeat
who my beating heart skips for
You’ll get the best jump roping
Rubber band man, singing and dancing,
in the palm of your hand
I will be your personal valet man,
who will always open the door to my heart
Giving you the best of me and more ...
If I should ever
not remember my vow to you,
to love you more and more each day anew
No, no ... no, no, no!
Let five fingers of separation
close around my heart and squeeze
Emptying out to you, every last loving drop
of my missing fidelity
I betta not ever
withhold the best of me,
keep it from you
My every endeavor
should be to satisfy you
Have your tender feet
tell me what to do,
when I take off your Cinderella shoes
Have your dove eyes
whisper how best to wash the tears away,
should any sadness arise
I die by the flesh,
I live by the Spirit
Baby, please love me more
every time I tell you that
your voice I need to hear it
If I should ever
make you desire fallow dreams,
give you empty, unrequited yearnings
Then darken my face ... withdraw your love,
go seek a better rainbow heart string
to make your harp soul sing
If I should ever
tell you things that are not true,
make your joyful happiness
drown in the teary deep blue
Then look away, turn away
Fly away from the dreary gray
If I should ever
deny my love for you,
not offer to give the very best of me to you
Then cast me forever out of your heart —
and find someone new,
who will always faithfully remain true
A mirrored heart who will never ...
no not ever,
stop reflecting only sacred love for you
This is my love manifesto
