1.

 

A rumbling drum

is deep inside;

I hear it roll

like thunder.

 

Love like the crash-

ing waves of tide

is rising up

from under.

 

Chorus:

 

My love is rising up

like a wave out of my heart;

hold me tight; hold me together

or it might tear me apart.

 

My love is rising up;

something too big to control;

need your love, now and forever;

feel it rising in my soul.

 

2.

 

The passion

that I feel for you

is like a kind

of power.

 

Out of a

single kiss it grew

but now it’s like

a tower.

 

Chorus:

 

My love is rising up

like a wave out of my heart;

hold me tight; hold me together

or it might tear me apart.

 

My love is rising up;

something too big to control;

need your love, now and forever;

feel it rising in my soul.

There's lots of swelling passion in this love poem that sort of reminded me of bread dough responding to being kneaded and moulded - think it's all that 'rising up' from under going on. Just wondering, do you need the word 'up', as something rising is generally heading in that direction anyway. The title made me smile.

Hi, Bee. "Up" might be redundant but when I write lyrics it's usually because I've heard the song in my head and the singer in my head sang "Up" so I wrote "Up" down. I think its a bit like the word uprising, it can also be rising but uprising sounds more dramatic.

Oh look, a link. I wonder where it leads.
