Sort of corny, but beautiful, little pop song

Music/Lyrics/Singing/Playing/Arranging/Recording: Tom O'Brien

A song about sweet nothings

There's a secret kind of code
That only I know how to write
But I want to let you in
If you will stay with me tonight
And I will use the kind of words
That you've only heard in dreams
And if you let me hold you close
I'm gonna show you what they mean

Magic words
That are only meant for you
Words of love
You'll be amazed what they can do

When I'm scratching with my pen
Symbols ancient to your eyes
If you just knew what they meant
It'd make you want to cry
They're a little sanctified
And a little bit obscene
And if you let me hold you close
I'm gonna show you what they mean

Magic words
That are only meant for you
Words of love
You'll be amazed what they can do

Hold my hand
That's the perfect place to start
Understand
What is written in my heart

Magic words
That are only meant for you
Words so pure
You'll be amazed what they can do

The Emperor's New Clothes
“We shall be much obliged to you,” said the thieves. Then they named the many colors and described the pattern of the pretended stuff. The old wise man listened with care to their words so he might repeat them to the Emperor. The thieves asked for more silk and gold saying that it was necessary to complete what they had begun. Once again they put all that was given them into their knapsacks. They went on working with as much effort as before at their empty looms.
