Love Just Ain't Enough

i don't wanna lose you,
but i don't wanna use you
just to have somebody by my side.
and i don't wanna hate you,
i don't wanna take you,
but i don't wanna be the one to cry.
and that don't really matter
to anyone anymore.
but like a fool i keep losing my place
and i keep seeing you walk through that door.
but there's a danger in loving somebody too much,
and it's sad when you know
it's your heart you can't trust.
there's a reason why people
don't stay where they are.
baby, sometimes, love just ain't enough.
now, i could never change you,
i don't wanna blame you.
baby, you don't have to take the fall.
yes, i may have hurt you,
but i did not desert you.
maybe i just wanna have it all.
it makes a sound like thunder,
it makes me feel like rain.
and like a fool who will never see the truth,
i keep thinking something's gonna change.
and there's no way home,
when it's late at night and you're all alone.
are there things that you wanted to say?
do you feel me beside you in your bed,
there beside you, where i used to lay?
and there's a danger in loving somebody too much,
and it's sad when you know it's your heart they can't touch.
there's a reason why people don't stay who they are.
baby, sometimes, love just ain't enough.

Mommy Mel, Mommy Dawn & Dearie Nyx!

I was chatting on MSN with Dawn tonight...then the topic of Dawn training Nyx to call me by what name? We happily discussed and shared a few, Dawn & I are like sisters...we have a unique friendship and the bond is different, somehow i feel like i know her before or perhaps even my long lost sister!!?? Well she suggested Ah yee?...Or Mama Mel?..LOL. cos that is what she calls me and I call her Mama Dawn. So Nyx will call me Grandma Mel? Wahaha! But Ah Yee is for Stef, Dawn went on and on..saying Steff will be the Da Yi Ma!! LOL...nearly dropped of my chair for a second. So Finally we made a conclusion..from today, Dearie Nyxie will call Mama Mel. Dawn & I wil call each other MommIES instead of Mamas!! Thanks dear sis for your kindness and thoughTfulness,for being there for me through my rough times and calling me from france now n then. Miss ya tons...waiting for U and Nyx to return to celebrate Your birthday and Christmas..Oh & not forgetting the little one in ur tummy too. Take care MommY Dawn!!
