Something Right

SOMETHING RIGHT words and music © Rosemary Schonfeld
Sometime last night I remember
There was no moon last night
We’d just got home before the rain came down
You sat and read the paper
While I daydreamed the evening away
Then you leaned over and kissed me
And I thought to myself:
For once in my life, I’ve done something right
I fell in love with you, and brought you into my life
As the time goes by, you still make me high
I can’t believe you’re still here with me
All the things you do still feel so new
It’s a dream I never had
But no it’s coming true
The way you call me every day
The way you say the things you say
The way you give me what I need
You showed me how to love and be loved
You gave me hope again
When I thought I’d really had enough
Sometimes it’s hard to believe this is happening
Something so right
Not so long ago
I didn’t know how love could grow
I thought everyone is fighting to have control
Or want to settle down
To hide from the world around
Let go of all their dreams and schemes
You’ve got such a fire
You keep aiming for the sky
And I will be here all the time you try
You’re not afraid to laugh or cry
Your feelings you cannot hide
You fill me with love so inspired
You are the one I did not think I’d find
You have my heart in your hands
And it feels just fine
For once in my life, I’ve done something right
Something right

Waiting

WAITING words and music © Rosemary Schonfeld
I want to have a little talk
Maybe we should go for a little walk
Should I get in my car and drive away
Or would you like me to stay?
It’s been six months we’ve been going out
I’m beginning to have a few doubts
If I’m lucky I get a little kiss
But to me it’s all so hit and miss
You needed time, that’s fine
But now you’ve got me hanging on a line
I wear my heart on my sleeve
If you tell me to go I’ll leave
I have waited all this while
I can no longer live on our smile
When you’re talking
I can’t concentrate on what you are saying
When I sit close to you
I’ve been good, done what I should
When I want to grab you I ask you
“How’s your mother? Is she rested? That’s nice”.
When what I want is a few nights with you in paradise
If you say what you need
I’ll be happy to follow your lead
I know your past, that’s OK
Mine is none to tidy anyway
I’ll go home alone
But this time I may not come back
Or call you on the phone
My poor knees are giving way
Should I get in my car or should I stay?
Don’t you know I’m insecure
One wrong look and I’m running out the door
When I’m here, you make sure
You tightly shut your bedroom door
I don’t know how you feel
I don’t know what’s our deal
I can’t take a lot more
Without knowing what it’s for.

Better Day

BETTER DAY words and music © Rosemary Schonfeld
Time has a way
Of healing our wounds
Now that it’s been a while
I’m thinking of you
I was the best friend
You ever had
Now that I’m gone I wonder
Do you feel sad?
It doesn’t matter now, it’s OK
I woke up into a better day
For a number of years
I took your abuse
I gave you so much rope
You tied your own noose
You thought I’d always be there for you
But for my own sake
I had to get right away from you
It doesn’t matter now, it’s OK
I woke up into a better day
Love for you means to make someone cry
Then you want them to hurt you too
Don’t you ever ask why?
I tried to tell you hundreds of times
You cannot treat me bad
You didn’t listen, and now I find
It doesn’t matter now, it’s OK
I woke up into a better day

I CAN SEE THE DREAM words and music © Rosemary Schonfeld
I can see the dream in your eyes
And the light that’s shining through
Through the darkness of the days
And the time that only weighs heavy on you
You’ve been such a long time in trouble
And your soul is screaming out
It’s been such a long time coming
The fire burns higher when you shout
“We’re coming out of hibernation
To change the situation”
Light shines in the distance
Always out of reach
Every day a little bit closer
sometimes the dark is all your see
You have travelled so very far
You’ve got miles and miles to go
There’s no way you can go back
No light behind so on you go
“We’re coming out of hibernation
To change the situation”
