LYRICS
We’ve been together since way back when
Sometimes I never want to see you again
But I want you to know, after all these years
You’re still the one I want whisperin’ in my ear
You’re still the one I want to talk to in bed
Still the one that turns my head
We’re still having fun, and you’re still the one
I looked at your face every day
But I never saw it ’til I went away
When winter came, I just wanted to go
Deep in the desert, I longed for the snow
You’re still the one that makes me laugh
Still the one that’s my better half
We’re still having fun, and you’re still the one
You’re still the one that makes me strong
Still the one I want to take along
We’re still having fun, and you’re still the one
Changing, our love it comes and goes
Even though we grow, it grows too
You’re still the one that I love to touch
Still the one and I can’t get enough
We’re still having fun, and you’re still the one
You’re still the one who can scratch my itch
Still the one that I wouldn’t switch
We’re still having fun, and you’re still the one
You are still the one that makes me shout
Still the one that I dream about
We’re still having fun, and you’re still the one…
You’re still the one
Yeah, still the one
We’re still having fun
And you’re still the one
Yes you are

You’re still the one
The only one I have ever wanted
14 years off and on
I thought I was done with you
But I was wrong
11 years apart
Now I am living in your house
At first I thought
‘Wow, this is wild’
Now, I am scared
Isn’t it inevitable?
I’m gonna ‘f ‘this up?
Ruin everything?
Because that’s what I always do
My destiny
Please Jesus
I don’t want to ruin it
This really matters
This time
You see that, right?
And now,
I don’t even know
Is this where I’m s’posed to be
Or not?
If you don’t tell me
I’m never gonna know
Whoah… Laurel, this is prosaic and poetic. Felt everything you expressed in the poem.

I’m saying this because you’re a good poet and your poems have this different feel. Please consider it.
your billet- doux
blossom hitherto
infectiously comforted
fragrance my soul..
Hummingbirds fly
in my furloughed mind
Seasoned love
fawns on my lawn..
Summery notes infuse
wonderment of exotic mood
you’re still my tender fool
lipsing my heart’s sweet desire.
Truth be told. I need to go look up some words used in the poem. The first line is captivating.
I’d like you to enter the poetry contest. So you could win $200. You’re an amazing poet.
Thank you will definitely consider????
We’re stuck in time’s amber
trading places in the night
slowing our pace
switching pleasure & pain.
Seasons fade yet time persists
deep in your eyes I fall
spanking my look you laugh
no mercy you take us home.
Dreams find our fun
silhouetting these passions
days make us over
will you take me again?
I’m always jolly when I see your poem on the music prompt. Love the poem. Hope you’re safe?
Thank you so very much, Abuh! Oh yes…safe and decadently bored… ;-)))))
Sorry about that…we could do a co-write. You choose the time…what do you think?
???
Winters come
Summers go
Life’s a race
Yet paradoxically slow
U’re my lover
Yet also my foe
& while I may love u
I also hate u so
I don’t understand
This hellish paradigm
Being loved by u
Feels like a crime
We are two sides
Of the same damn coin
Like oil & water
Unnaturally joined
Love every bit of the poem but the last but one and last line just keep bringing fun images. Thanks for posting this! Hope you’re safe?
Love your work, Kattt!!!
I haven’t been writing poems for a while cos of a novel i’m currently working on but i’ll definitely write something because of the song…I hope it suffice.
In silence i know
you have learnt
you’re still the one.
In my unworded words
i know you know
you’re still the one.
Time told me
when i slept alone
Time told me
when your face was far.
