Alcoholic - dunno who wrote it

I'm an alcoholic for your love
But then I think you've heard
You've left me pretty shaken
Did I ever leave you stirred?
You said we'd drink each other dry.
Seems you're not thirsty any more.
So you've left me with the empties.
Sipping heartache through a straw

Being Boring.........

"may you live in interesting times" - chinese curse

If you ask me "What's new?" - I have nothing to say
Except that the garden is growing.
I had a slight cold but it's better today.
I'm content with the way things are goin.
Yes, I am the same as I usually am,
Still eating and sleeping and snoringin the noons also.
I get on with my work, he gets on with his.
I know this is all very boring.

There was drama enough in my turbulent past:
Tears and passion - I've used up a tankful.
No news is good news, and long may it last.
If nothing much happens, I'm thankful.
A happier cabbage you never did see,
my vegetable spirits are soaring.
If you're after excitement, steer well clear of me.
I want to go on being boring.

I don't go to parties & bars like my friends.
Well, what are they for,
if you don't need to find a new lover?
You drink and you listen and drink a bit more
And you take the next day to recover.
Someone to stay home with was all my desire
And, now that I've found a safe mooring,
I've just one ambition in life, I aspire
To go on and on being boring.

Dont come back

Love comes and goes
and often is has paused,
then comes back to see
the damage it has caused.
Please
dont come back.
Everything is destroyed.

Lover of Friend?

Whether I came
As lover or friend
I lacked the certainty
of a relationship.

I know we kissed
and we held hands
but lover and friends
make both demands.

We shared some wine
We shared some bread
and later on
we shared your bed.

But we shared no knowledge.
of who we were
In the social terms of
"Are he and her?"

We shared the darkness
The sounds from the street
And sometime in the night
A hand crossed the sheet.

"Halt who goes there?
Lover or friend?"
In the darkness I recognise you
As one and the same.

It happens.. getting on... getting off... getting down... mmmm...

For DH one of many - Alice Fish
Completely unaware
I never knew
that you would care.

I never knew
you'd be the one
to lift my life
and make it fun.
