Little Black Dove

When I wake up from my dreams,
They’re all of you,
And I don’t know why I dream them,
I just do,

I just want to take your face in my hands,
Just hold you there,
Not say a single word,
Just stare,

And I don’t know why,
The only thing I long for,
Is to see your smile,

You’re a little black dove,
All shadowed and dark,
Underneath I know you’re white,
You’re so beautiful,
You’re making my heart ache,
Just want to capture you in my hands,
Just want to see you a little white dove again…

I want so much to reach out and touch your face,
But in between us stands time and space,
I want so much to make your pain go away,
I want to be the reasons that you stay,

You touched my heart,
When I hid it from the world,
So I’m giving back the part,
You gave me that made me whole,

And I don’t know why,
The only thing I long for,
Is to see your smile,

You’re a little black dove,
All shadowed and dark,
Underneath I know you’re white,
You’re so beautiful,
You’re making my heart ache,
Just want to capture you in my hands,
Just want to see you a little white dove again…

I don’t know why,
But you’re so beautiful,
So, so beautiful,
In my eye’s,
You’re so beautiful,
Beautiful…

Little black dove,
All you need is love,
I know you could be white,
Oh so white, pure light,
My heart aches,
To hold you in my hands,
To see you fly again,
Little black dove,
You’re so…
Beautiful…
I wrote this for Adams birthday a long time ago. I found it this morning scrabbling around for some un-used paper. I feel really guilty because I just haven't had the chance to put music to those others songs like I promised, let alone this one and I really do owe it to him.

This was the final song I wrote for Adam for his birthday. I didn't like the other ones and stayed up all night trying to come up with something. It had to be perfect, but I just couldn't get it to work. Some were to emotional, others didn't flow.

After awhile I fell asleep and when I woke I wrote this. It was perfect. It was simple and sweet and Adam. :)
