Story Behind The Song

I finally met the perfect woman. Problem is, our paths crossed on the heels of a major break up for me. My heart had yet to grow from the past relationship. I wasn't ready for love, but I was more than willing.

Song Description

This story is about a man who finally finds a way to say the words he was always afraid to. This story borrows from the empty chair mode of therapy where the victim gets a chance to say the things he never got to when the time was at hand. Hopefully, in this case it's not too late to say the words "I love you."

Lyrics

Windkisses

Unlike any other woman
I had ever known,
She made the earth
Move underneath my feet

She gave reason to unlock
These hidden emotions
Wherever she is,
Is where I long to be

But I know I can?t move
Time or Circumstance
So the thought of her
Stays in my special place

Though the last time I saw
Her was years ago
My mind?s eye is still locked
On this woman?s face

Beautiful...
Brown skinned...
Delicious...

Encompassing every detail
Of my greatest fantasy
I?m filling the wind
with poetic kisses
Hoping
one day
her love
Comes back
to
me


It?s been three years since the last time I heard your voice. Our best moments seem to be frozen in time?.But the bond between us is stronger than any pride I could imagine?..We flow just like water from what once was ice.
So much has happened since the last time we spoke. I can only imagine how things have changed. Only for the best is my sincerest hope as more strength comes with each passing day. As for me, I?m doing much better now. the whispering wind said it was time to move away. I needed a fresh start with brand new surroundings. My life was going to waste. The relationships I had were lacking in substance and after a while they started getting old. No one brought anything to the table I needed. There I was, an empty soul.
But along came you and everything seemed right, at least, it was right for me. We talked about:
hopes,
fears,
dislikes,
ambitions,
accomplishments,
failures
dreams
?..and in just a few short months we developed a bond that was stronger than selfish pride.
Stronger than the sight God gave you or me.
Stronger than the negatives from our past lives.
Stronger than our deepest, darkest memories.
Stronger than hurt.
Stronger than pain.
Stronger than the voices that say:
?why hold on.?
Stronger than tomorrow,
stronger than our yesterdays?.
?and that?s what I remember when I?m remembering you. You brought color to my shades of grey. You saw me for the person I was at the time. You saw me for the person I would be on day. You saw me for the things I couldn?t see in myself, though I?d find ways to disapprove. You saw almost everything I had going on, except the fact I was falling in love with you.
I tried sharing the blossoms of this precious rose, but you blew its petals away. You said I wasn?t ready to fall in love again. For once in my life I didn?t know what to say. All I could do was feel at the time. Between us grew this measurable space?.which at first started out as a few missed calls that turned in to a few missed dates which became a few weeks since the last time we spoke.
how many months are in 1095 days?
how many years does it take to make up a lifetime?
eternity?s stare has been burning my face.
We should have developed a case of amnesia, Then loose ourselves in each other?s lives. And I would find myself every time I breathed you. Three years without hasn?t been enough time to erase the thought of what could have been if you would just believe in me and stay.
I didn?t understand that you were still healing from the past.
If I did, time would not have been spent of heartache. But instead it was spent
wondering where did she go, and how long dear God will it take? Before the answers to the whys reveal themselves and take this empty chair away.
