Vulnerabilities

I was feeling extremely vulnerable at one point in time and for some reason looked up the definition of vulnerable in a dictionary. Yep, a hardback book with pages to flip. When I got the definition, I read: “a balance of bonuses or penalties.” That immediately became a chorus and the rest of the lyrics flowed from relationship feelings at the time. The music has an island groove to help offset the stress of relationships.

• Vulnerabilities

  A lover’s heart a game of chance
  Hidden reality of romance
  At a crossroads, stick out your the neck
  Gonna have to make a bet
  Door open to receive
  May lead to broken dreams
  
  An open heart unconditionally
  No weight to bear spirit is free
  Judgment suspended only love exists
  The ultimate game of risk
  Everything to gain and to lose
  Every moment feels endless and true
  
  CHORUS
  Subject to receive
  Bonuses or penalties
  It’s the balance of these
  Vulnerabilities
  
  Reach out with a hand to feel
  Submit for it to be real
  Hiding behind a stone face
  Gone are the dreams that you long for
  In the first place
  Fear & random feelings can creep in
  Where love should have been
  
  CHORUS
  

  Feel the fire of desire
  Deep embrace hearts that race
  Be on the edge of disaster
  Only then does it truly matter
  Find rewards deep within
  Dues paid with emotions
  
  CHORUS
