I was raised, and still live, on 30 acres outside Salem, OR. My father was a well known regional artist. I paint with words rather than a brush. Nature is wha
A friend had just gotten married, but it wasn't working. She felt abused and neglected. This song was written for her.
Lyrics
Secret PlaceBy Lisa Lee, 1990
There’s a secret place inside a woman
Tread lightly here
For the grass is young and tender
And can drown with her tears.
Here her arms are open
Like the branches of a tree
Here she’ll hold you close encircling
To serve your every need.
Hurtful words will burn the grass
Unkind ways will drought the soil
And soon the wind will blow away
A heart you cannot hold
Shower her with kindness
Be her beacon in the night
Build her trust and stop her fear
And a rainbow will appear
You’ll find blue skies in her gentle ways
Green grass on which to lay
The warmth of sunshine in her touch
And kisses of sweet citrus
Her cheeks will hold red roses
This kind of love cannot be bought
And she’ll share the sweet aroma
Of a violet forget-me-not.
