Honesty Time

I've mentioned before that Mr.Flamingo and I have a very honest relationship and I love that. Before we started officially going out (FYI - Mr.F had been asking my out on a date for over 8 months) he composed a song for me. He wrote the song because I wasn't certain if I liked Mr.Flamingo enough to date him. I guess he was trying to win me over... well it worked.


Every Thursday (don't ask me why we chose that day) but we would have a session of Honesty Time. Basically it was a time allotted to talk about everything throughout the week and the rule was we needed to be 110% honest. It wasn't pretty all the time, but because we did this we can be completely honest with each other and I find it is the recipe to a great relationship.

Mr.Flamingo composed the tune and the lyrics. He originally wrote it in French and a good friend translated it in English (because he knew I was English and I guess he wanted to impress me). He is the one singing and playing guitar. Please remember (Mr.F is french and doesn't speak English very well.)



Honesty Time
written and composed by Mr.Flamingo

Silent screams run through my head
Invisible tear drown in my face
I want to escape with you
Its such a mystery how things
May come together in this life
and we always wonder why

And then you came in my world
You give the best out of me
I couldn't ask for more you see
I don't need to search anymore

Chorus
Like a shadow in the rain
I disappear when the light fades away
Like a ghost you want to leave
I keep on coming back to you
I'll give away my soul for you
Until the day your love is true
Honesty Time

Your voice whispers to me and said
I get so lonely when you go away
Just stay a little while
The smell of your skin, is like a paradise breeze
The touch of your lips delight my day
I can't believe your here with me

And then you came in my world
You give the best out of me
I couldn't ask for more you see
I don't need to search anymore

Chorus (2x)
Like a shadow in the rain
I disappear when the light fades away
Like a ghost you want to leave
I keep on coming back to you
I'll give away my soul for you
Until the day your love is true
Honesty Time


Its a given that when I heard the song tears were falling down my face. No one has ever written me a song before and this one was so beautiful. I don't know if Mr.F is planning on composing another one for the wedding. I would love that as a wedding gift (wink wink)

Have you ever gotten a song written just for you? Was it good?
