Shades of Jade

He Needs to laugh at my jokes, no matter how old.

He whispers, I love you - the words I need to be told.

Holds me tight, never letting me go.

What I’m saying is to have and to hold.

All of this is just a delusion,

Made up by movies - an extravagant illusion.

Might just be my jaded Conclusion.

Yeah, just my jaded conclusion!

I’ve seen the movies and read all the lines,

Decadent declarations with roses and wine.

The curtains fall, the glamour simply subsides.

All I find left is hollow: love’s false disguise.

Of all the colors in the rainbow that seem to linger,

There’s one that’s had love ripped from his fingers.

It’s the bed we both made that left our love faded—

Now all I am is jaded! (I’m so glad I didn’t stay.)

There’s only one shade that remains. That’s jade!

He smiles, “I love you!”

That’s what I need to be told.

He’s holding me tight and never letting go.

Truly I’ll find my, to have and to hold.

Someone to be with as I grow old.

Prayin someone makes it more than a delusion.

Sway my jaded conclusion.

Make it more than an illusion.

Sway my jaded Conclusion.

Clear the delusion fix the illusion, bring resolution.

Sway my jaded conclusion.

Please sway my jaded conclusion!
