Bits of This 'n That:

People Talk, People See

Sitting here thinking all alone
There’s no call on the telephone
Silently I pray everything is all right
You’re out again late tonight
You say you’re working late - I can’t believe
All the while what’s up your sleeve
Who was that girl in the bar last night?
Holding onto your arm so cozy and tight
A friend of ours came and told me
Don’t you think people talk, people see?
She is a blond, young and alive
And I’m sitting here feeling so deprived
Of all the happiness you promised me
Don’t you know people talk, people see?
Right now I’m feeling sad, feeling blue
Getting the strength to walk out on you
You’ll be shocked at the things you will hear
While I’m out there partying in a new atmosphere
I’ll show you all that I can be
Don’t you know people talk, people see?

Without A Word

She walked away without a word
Her heart is broken in two
Silently her tears fall
What else could she do?

Without a word, his look was hard
As he packed his things awhile
Not able to see the pain she felt
He already missed her smile.

Two people who gave it all they had
Never worried about their past
Oh how they loved
While others gossiped,
Saying it would never last.

Years together with tale-tale signs
Of a love so bright and true
Yet talk was cheap
While others whispered
They knew not what to do.

Without a word she walks away
Trying hard to fight the fears
Of being alone – so all alone
No one to wipe her tears.

Honesty and being sincere are two of the main ingredients for

a realationship - well at least that is what I was taught. If anyone

knew about dishonesty, it was my mother. She learned first hand

after my daddy had deceived and cheated on her for so many years.

Be honest with yourself first - then all should blend right in ...

Good Luck!
