My Sing-a-Longs
Here are some of by better songs...and my favorites too: the cream of the crop.
It isn't a hard scheme: verses are regular text, choruses are bolded (including pre-choruses), and bridges or transitions are italicized.
Every Way
The thoughts come so fast it's a blurr/I can't find the words to summerize it all/But I know I need to somehow/So I ask you to listen close/And try to comprehend
All that I say, what I may do/It may be crazy, but I do it for you/I can't form the words/I don't know what to say/But I care for you/And I love you in every way
If I've said something wrong/I can't take it back/But I can try my best/To, from now on, leave you alone/I won't mention this again
But I hope you'll consider/You consume all my thoughts/I can't think straight anymore/But I do know for sure
Be Like Clark
I wanna do good for those I see/And end up with the girl of my destiny/I wanna fly high and be real strong/And not get stuck just singing this song/I wanna be like Clark
I always dreamed of flying/Of being powerful--never dying/Of laser-powered eyes and x-ray vision/To make more of a single decision/To be a role-model people look up to/I wanna be Superman and be in his shoes
I wanna have courage and might/And wear those funny tights/Everybody's bullet-proof friend/And steel bars I could bend/A hero I want to be/I wish that Superman were me
My only problem/My only kryptonite/I am not Superman/Fighting for what's right/But I'm not stuck in the dark/I want to be like Clark
Fame Game
I pick up the pen--the words flow freely/But that is how all the songs start/This song is different--new set of scenery/This song is written from my heart/Sure, they all say it; they make the claims/But they don't know; they can't even begin/They taylor their songs to win them fame/Working for a prize they surely can't win/I don't claim to be special/Don't get me wrong/So I'll go at this casual/And present you this song
All the others are bred to be/Models of our society/All the others are made to show/Emotions that we all know/All the others are born to die/In the hands of those that made them fly/All the others will come and go/Where will I be? I don't know
What am I trying to show with this/What am I saying about riches and fame/The Teacher once made these things his wish/But all is vanity; a worthless game/A wizard of words I certainly am not/But learn what you can from me/For if in the trap of this you are caught/You will understand my warnings--you'll see/How pointless it is/For the rich and famous/To get what's not his/And there's no one to save us
But the trap of the cash/And the pleasing public eye/Will lose its worth; become trash/And all you'll do is want to die/But there's a way out/I'm sure that you know/Keep your voice down--don't shout/He'll bless you if He controls the show
But I'll be where I am/I know that for certain/I won't be caught in the scam/And trapped with the burden
Meeting Place
Lord, here we are/We've come this far/To be with you/Everything we've known/And everything we own/We present to You/No matter what we've done/Or anything we say/You're still the only One/You're still the Only Way/Lord, here we are/We've come this far/To be with you
This is our time to come to You/A time to change--to be renewed/A time to learn, a time to see/Everything You want us to be/This is our time to come to You
Sink Back In
I see you nearly every day/And this is very difficult to say/I planted hints deep down in things/For you and the satisfaction it brings/But you never noticed/You didn't even see/The thing that you missed/Was the rest of me
I see the whole, you see a part/You are so special in my heart/I love you but you can't love me back/And because of that I feel under attack/But you never knew; there's no way you could/But I was always there hoping you would/But now I know that you can't even begin/To love me, so I sink back in
There were all those days/That I tried all the ways/I said everything I needed to/But there was always something I didn't do/To tell you my feelings/And get it all out/And begin all the dealings/Instead of sitting to pout
I sink back in/It hurts so bad/It gets under my skin/And I feel so sad
Tripped Me Up Again
I was going on just fine at first/Then I saw you and my heart burst/I was running fast toward the goal/But you stopped me and took my soul/I can't resist this crazy thought/You tripped me up and me you've got
I was running and you stuck out your foot/You tripped me up but I won't stand/I've been stopped in my tracks and I don't care/You tripped me up and held out your hand
Time has stopped; I'm still ahead/But now I stop and dwell on what you said/When I fell down, you picked me up/When I spilled, you filled my cup/And now I can't stop thinking of you/I'm not sure there's something I wouldn't do To please you and be with you/I can't help myself/I can't and won't stand/Because when I tripped, you held out your hand
Revenge
I tried so hard/Gave you so many chances/But you tossed out the card/You wouldn't even try/To be nice to me/Al you did was imply/That you wouldn't be nice/Put my head in a vice/You'd hurt me twice/And then you'd move on
Well, I tell you I won't keep on/I will not stop until you're gone/You've plagued me over countless times/And this is all that's to my rhymes
I can't keep doing this/I will not give in/There's nothing about me you will not diss/I'll return you the favor/I'll plague you back/I will not waver/I won't be nice/I'll put your head in a vice/I'll hurt you more than twice/And then I'll move on
I won't keep going on (revenge)/I won't stop until you're gone (revenge)/You've plagued me countless times (revenge)/I have to have (revenge)
Two-Face
You've got most of what I want/You'd be a hit while I'd be a bunt/You've got style and popularity/While I keep looking for charity/I wish that we could switch places/But it seems you have two faces
One minute you're good/Another you're bad/You do what you should/Then make others mad/You've got most of what I long for/I just wish you'd open the door
You can be good and sweet/But when HE'S around you don't miss a beat/And then the next minute you're not/And all the chicks think you're hot/I don't know you anymore/But there's one thing I know for sure
You send a diss for every build-up I send/Why can't you just let me be your friend/Why can't you just open the door
Amanda's Song
You wanted me to write you a song/I can't promise that it will be long/We are on our way to the Harlingen Camp/And outside it is getting just a bit damp/I'm not real smart and don't have gift for rhyme/But then again I didn't give thought to it a long time/I hope you like it; I wrote it for you/But save all your laughing until the song's through
This song is going to be amazing indeed/I wish that I knew just what else it does need/But I wrote it for you; what else do you care?/The other girls may get jealous and think I'm unfair/Although this isn't much of a chorus, you see/It's about as good as it gets when the writer is me
The wheels on our bus keep turning/Sleep deprivation makes my brain feel burning/But after I finish this song you'll be keeping/I don't know whether I'll feel like sleeping
Better Than One
After all these years/After all my tears/Things are changing/You see my now/Though I don't know how/But now you are nice to me
And now we can talk/Now we can have fun/You like me and I like you/Two's always better than one
So now the times begin/Let's go out for a spin/In the convertible of life/I'm not a geek in your eyes/And though another guy tries/You are still nicer to me
Now we can laugh/Now we can play/I hope it will last, I pray
Light Behind Shadows
It is so dark; I cannot see/The total blackness is blinding me/I stick my hands out to guide me through/But as I stumbled, I found you/My life was going nowhere; it had no direction/But you rescued me, and gave me your affection
Light behind shadows/You rescued me from myself/And now I'm back in perfect health/Light behind shadows
Now that I know the light/Everything seems oh so bright/When I'm with you, then I know/When I walk away, my face will glow/Everyone will notice; they'll know I've been with you/And when I tell them, they'l want to see you too
Light behind shadows...
Sustainer
When life gets so hard/When I can't go on/When peace seems so far away/You'll stay with me/Until night gives way to dawn
When I cry You are my help/When I fear You lift me up/Lord, You'll never leave my side/You're my Sustainer; You fill my cup
When I cry You are my help/When I fear You lift me up/Lord, You'll never leave my side/You're my Sustainer; You fill my cup/I don't care what happens to me/I love You, what can I say?/If I stumble or I fall/You'll still love me anyway
And when the sun goes down/Or You don't show your face/You'll still draw me near/I won't ever leave this place
And when all is gone/You'll still be here/And when life gets hard/You will draw me near
Remember the Times
And what can I say to you right now?/I do not understand; after all of it how/You can just go and end it so fast/And now all we had is in the past/I don't know what to feel or to think/But when I heard those things my heart began to sink/So once again we are right back here/And all I want is to have you near
Because I care for you so much more than you know/And there are so many times I wish I could show/My love for you way deep down inside/And I am sure, though, it is something I can't hide/But you may not love me oh so much/I'll melt inside just at your touch/And just to think how much we had/Remembering hurts and it makes me so sad
Star
When those times come/When the sun is out of view/I look at the stars/And I think of you
Shining so bright/To light up my day/Another full night/Right here you should stay
When it hurts to/Look up at the night-time sky/I have not a worry/Because I know that you're nearby
So tempting/This day you/And I are/Right here together
[Currently Untitled]
Like music to my ears, your name rolled off my tongue/I wouldbe hard-pressed to find a greater beauty sung/From our first conversation and our first sight/We knew that we could wait and walk after what is right/Some say distance builds character; I think I may agree/But great tension and sorrow build when you I cannot see/It's hard for me to verbalize--to put my thoughts on paper/Odds are that you will not hear this song until so very later/There isn't much that I can do to try to pass the time/And so I sit here and I write to try to make a rhyme
And what is in a name? A question some have pondered/Or what is in a face? Or how far thoughts have wandered/What worth is found on the outside or what does lie within?/Why do people ask such questions that make their heads spin?/I need no reassurance--I've thought up my reply/I love you, so I'm guilty--I need no alibi/My only thing of worth, if only one thing I have learned/I will wait; I will not ask until your love I've earned
Not Meant To Be
As time slowly passes by, I'm reminded of your grace/It seems every time I close my eyes, I can see your face/Each time that I think of you, my mind is over-run/With all the things we didn't do, so many things undone/But I guess that it's better now, we shouldn't be together/Because anything that we could do would never last forever/But just as I sit and think, I wish I hadn't said/That I would like you better if you were only dead/I really do not hate you so; you see, I was just mad/But if I had to tell you again, there isn't anything I'd add/Because, one day I pray and hope you'll see/That you and me were just not meant to be
There are many things that we could say/But it just wouldn't matter anyway/And maybe we'll go again someday/But I can't really care for what you feel/'Cause you and I were only too unreal/I think we just need some time to heal/I have felt this from the start/I can't bear when we're apart/I feel you still have my heart
As I look back upon everything that we did/I don't know about you, but I feel like a kid/The things that I said were foolish and naive/Only now I understand just why you would leave/I just wish that you'd come back again/I'm ready right now; just tell me when/But no, it's not right--we can't take another spin/Because if we do, there's no way we could win/You're so beautiful; I just can't see/Why things won't work between you and me
The Person
I think about you every day/And all the things that I should say/All the things that I should do/To let you know that I love you/My day moves slow without much reason/The purpose of life is to love you all season/I cannot go on; I must let you know/But something holds me back; I cannot show/How much I care/How much I think/How I can't even dare/To give you just a wink/Because I'm wasted and tired/Yet excited and ever-wired/By my thoughts of you--I find/You everywhere in my life and my mind/You're always there; I wish you could see/That the person you know loves you is me
The See How Perfect Song
He's not perfect; she's pretty close/How many couples are the likes of those?/Are they perfect for each other?/I wouldn't put them with any other/So admirable--the purest kind/Of any friendship that you could find
Through the hardships and the rain/You'll come out on top once again/A perfect match of strengths and weaknesses/And through the good times and all the joys/And all other happy things life employs/I cannot tell you how amazing this is
You are the perfect pair/To none other you can compare/I watch you as the days go by/And I sit and wonder why/In a time like this when life is meaningless/Another day from now you're still together somehow/Such love and such commitment/I cannot lie, I must admit/You are the perfect pair
You're still together--that much is for sure/And if ONE thing is right, it's that it will endure/She's so perfect for him and he's so perfect for her/If being single is sickness they've sure found the cure/Watching them together is like a dove/Flying carelessly with its perfect love
And I wonder how come I could have been so dumb/To not have noticed the beauty of you and me/Any sooner than I did; who have I got to kid?/We sure are the perfect pair
So Dear
There are some days when I feel so drained/But through it all your love sustained/You refresh me like the smell after it rained/While some have lost, I've only gained/From your smile, your feel/Is this truly real?/You laugh and I sing/Of all that you bring/You are such a joy to me today/And though there is much I could say
You were the one standing next to me when the storms were here/You are the one comforting me when I fall and when I fear/I know that there's more to life than pleasure/But you are not that--you're a precious treasure/I fear that I'll lose you by my mistakes/But you are still near in the storms and the quakes/You keep loving me--I don't know what it takes/But love so dear
In the rain and in the sun/I am so confident you're the one/Your love never stops; your work's never done/Your're not a prize that's just there to be won/You're so special--I can't say it right/You are my strength and you are my light/I'm counting the minutes up to when/I can say 'I love you' again/Anything else seems light as a feather/We'll be together for now and forever
So dear, I've been thinking of you for so long/And I do think that we cannot be wrong/And we are truly doing exactly what's right/And our future is bright: what a delight/So dear, I just want to say good and true/That I am wholly, completely, desperately in love with you
Spending A Day's Worth
That special feeling is all gone now/It disappeared right out from under you somehow/You think, 'how can there be any more to living'/Instead of always taking, you should be giving/Some people move through life and don't have a clue/The person they ran all over just might have been you/You think you'll just give up, but do you have a choice?/Things can still be changed--you still have your voice
And I know you're hurting/I know you're in pain/But don't put your life/To waste in vain
There's more to life than short-lasting pleasures/Masquerading faces and candy-coated dreams/There's laughter and service and worship and treasures/A life full of wonders that's more than it seems
Your special time of laughter and pleasure is done/But now that it seems worthless, I hope you had fun/Because you just can't do that even once more/For you will be used and hurt nearly for sure/The pleasure you found has all worn out/The last thing that will help is for you to pout/You must keep living, right down to the end/Because there isn't a time you should risk to not rightly spend
So as you go about your day, make sure that you spend/Every last minute right--right down to the end
Embrace the Dawn (4 the 1)
You mean so much more to me than anything/More than the air I breathe and the joy it brings/To look into your eyes and see my love returned/For a love like this my heart has forever yearned
I love you and I sure hope that you love me too/In hard times, and our good times, I know we will make it through/And some may try to keep us from lasting forever/We'll keep our sight on walking through life together/Side by side (echo)/Hand in hand (echo)/Things may not (echo)/Go as planned/And one day some ways off we may find that all we had is gone/But none can say we didn't go out to embrace the dawn
There are so many things that make me think of you/Brown eyes in photographs and winter, just to name a few/I think about you all the time--you're always on my mind/And I'll never stop until I know that I will have your hand in mine
I love you/I need you/I care for you/You're wonderful/You're beautiful/You're my only one
Isaiah Song (Isaiah 45:4-7 NIV)
I summoned you by name/I bestowed on you great honor/But you didn't acknowledge Me/As the LORD and no other/Apart from Me there is no God/I strengthened you when you most needed it/But you didn't acknowledge Me/You just wouldn't admit it
When the sun rose in the morning/Until it reached its resting place/There is no other Name but Mine/The LORD of earth and space/I create the light you see/I make the dark that hides you/I bring both good and bad/And I love you
I am the One Who sees you and the One Who gives you sight/I control everything from the dawn until the night/But over all else I chose to love you most/And I sing to you together with My Holy Host
Comfort (words by Andrew Bennett Collins)
I can feel the comfort being offered/I can feel the padding being placed/But I know that it will soon be ripped away from me
And I know this is going to hurt/And I know this is one big lie/And I know this could disappear/And I know this could all be gone
I can feel all the comforting being ripped, ripped away from me
Why did you build this up?/Why did you make this all so false?/Why couldn't you have told the truth?/Why did you make me suffer?/Make me suffer/Make me suffer
Treasures
Time moves slowly with its ever-present grace/The sun's light makes its way across your face/Our days have been dear and special--every single one/But now all we had is completed and is done/As I think back over times of long phone-conversation/Holding hands, hugs and kisses, and brand new sensations/I think about all that I have gained and what I've lost/And it's worth it--every moment--just to know that...
You and I were meant to be the whole time that we were/If anyone ever asked me, I bet I'd say I'm sure/That the times between you and me were purely golden moments/Each one a blessing down from heaven, a truly priceless token/I cannot tell you not to leave, for I can't make you stay/But I hope that you'll treasure our times each and every day
When I, in sorrowful remembering hour, do/Bring my thoughts back upon my fleeting thoughts of you/I will not cry for long for too much happy things went on/I still will feel tremendous loss that all but thoughts are gone/And though you move on to other new and different sorts/I'll be stuck on you for quite some time, of course/And in the end every moment we had will play back through my mind/And after my reminiscing, I know that I will find...
Kings and Thieves
Exhausting all my strength, I run so far from you/I try not to think what this is going to do/To the very person who gave his all/That I might be saved and be void from the fall/But I quickly push all about you away/My colorful life slowly slips to a gray/But I disregard your welcoming back/I'll make it on my own
I know that I need you to hold me while I sleep/Now I feel less like a king and more like a thief/For you were too perfect for me to accept/I know that my heart was just too inept/To take the step/Out to you
I know I may not be able to return for a long time/It may not be long until the ending bells chime/I don't want to die all alone, by myself/But I'm pushing you away and I won't ask for help/I know that you want me to return to your side/But I can't come back for I must hide/From the light that is blinding me still/I can't make it on my own
I can't even walk, the steps take so much strength/I wish I could run to you so you could take/Me back/I can make it with you along
Rains
It begins with a slow and quiet dripping/Before the guzzle comes the sipping/The silent drops fall to fill our hearts/And as we indulge, the downpour starts
Like a storm blowing in, the washing water rains/To restore life to death and to quench all our pains/The healing begins and all good becomes best/The methodical pounding soothes us to rest
Soon the drips become drops/And our fast-paced life stops/And the drops become showers/And it goes on for hours
The rain is a symbol of peace and grace/I sing out loud as the rain hits my face

The Second-Best Love Song
Spoken
Intro:
Once upon a time in a land not far from here/A fairy-tale
story was lived very near/To the ground on which you and I stand
today/A girl and a guy found each other to play/They grew up
together and soon fell in love/There was no doubt in their minds
it was sent from above/Theirs was a perfect love that grew into a
marriage/And only happiness followed with a baby in a
carriage/You've heard this picturesque love story many times
before/And the longing for such love is hard to ignore/But not
everyone finds their "knight in shining armor"/Nor do
they all find their pretty maiden charmer/Why does fate twist our
lives as often as it will?/Because if we fill our hearts to the
brim, we'll probably have a spill
The first day I saw you standing there/I saw your awesome smile ad your pretty hair/Many express their love through many many words/But frankly, dear, I see that practice as just absurd
I don't claim to be your typical knight in shining armor/But if you'll trust me with yourself, I'll promise not to harm her/I haven't loved someone quite as much as you/I'll trust you with myself if you will love me too
I could waste my time attempting to describe my feelings/But I know my words will just reflect off walls and ceilings/Or I could write a poem doesn't really matter how long/Because it will end up becoming the second-best love song
Love stories are the silliest things that I've ever read/They fall in love and kiss and then they just end up in bed/I will not waste your time singing songs of fairy tales/Because in the real world something in their true love fails
Spoken
Ending:
The answer to my story is you need to find your lover/Because
when you find them you'll be right for each other/It is much
better to have loved and then to have it lost/For not feeling
that love is just too much of a cost (for me)
The Ides of September
Long ago in a life far gone, it seems/A boy was left alone with his thoughts and dreams/And was grounded May 17th to forever/Until it reached the Ides of September
Been grounded for 120 days 'til now/I never thought I'd make it through somehow/I was stuck at home and couldn't go out/I'd play my guitar or sit to pout/Either way I was stuck, you see/But the Ides of September freed me
The marching Ides of September/Came and rescued me/I wrote a song for September/And I wrote it free and happily/Ideas of September
Second Chance
There are times we think we have nothing left/It's been taken from us, hiden in the cleft (of the rock)/But just when we start to think they're not here/We open our eyes and we see they are near/When it seems all the stars have gone out from the expanse/It lights up again and we get a second chance
Forgiveness comes bringing its friends/Love, joy, and hope--they never end/And when I look to you once more/You let me in to explore/The beauty of you and me/Together now so happily/A second chance
I run back to your open arms again/I hold your hands in mine and smile when/We get to go and just be us/With no one else to give up a fuss/I tell that I love you still/We'll last a lifetime--I know we will
No one should say that our love is not true/We will live on and we'll do what we do
Your Eyes (First Kiss)
I miss your touch/And the warmth of your embrace/I miss when we were holding hands/I miss the tears rolling down your face/I miss your love/And my own burns inside/I know the next time we meet/In your presence I'll abide
I looked into your eyes/And then to my surprise/We had our very first kiss/I know that I will miss (when)/I looked into your eyes/And it wasn't a surprise/That you were right here by my side
I miss your lips/And your arms all around me/I miss the kiss/You let me take so eagerly/I love you more than life itself/I'll prove my love most anywhere/I'll make sure the whole world knows/And by the end, you'll know I care
A kiss is a single moment lived in bliss/But that can't compare to loving you/I'd spend forever and all my life in your embrace/But there is nothing I'd rather do (than to)
Look into your eyes/I won't need to be surprised/When we give another kiss/I won't have a need to miss (when)/I look into your eyes/I cannot be surprised/To find you standing by my side

White Month
We stand here on the verge of greatness/The first White Month draws to a close/But as I reflect on the past thirty days/I marvel that I, in my ignorance, chose/The greatest blessing available to me/To know and to love you alone/And to your credit, you loved me back/And gave the best time I've ever known
This White Month, above all else, was the best/And gave me joy unmatched, beyond what I had guessed/We showed our love to one another as often as we could/And if I knew I could do it again, I'm totally sure I would/Because giving mine all to you/Was the best thing I could ever do/You became everything to me/We are more than anyone will be
It shines so bright/This white month/To our delight/This white month
Cry for Help (Psalm 102:1-2,7,9,11-13,18-20)
Hear my prayer, O Lord;/Let my cry of help come to You/Do not hide Your face from me/When I am in distress/Turn Your ear to me;/When I call, answer me quickly./I lie awake, I have become/Like a bird alone on a roof./For I eat ashes as my food/And mingle my drink with tears/My days are like the evening shadow;/I wither away like grass./But you, O Lord, sit enthroned forever;/Your renown endures through all generations./You will arise and have compassion on Zion,/For it is time to show favor to her;/The appointed time has come.
The Lord looked down from His sanctuary on high,/From heaven He viewed the earth,/To hear the groans of the prisoners/And release those condemned to death./Let this be written for a future generation,/That a people not yet created may praise the Lord
Who
I did not choose the path that I walked by/I did not want to be told how I/Should go head-long into a test and a trial/Where I'd face depression and self-denial/But that's nothing compared to what you went through/In that room, all that time; now do you know
Who loves you more than himself and his own/Who cares enough to keep you from being alone/He would give his all just to be with you always/He would do whatever it took to hear you say/That you love him back and you care for him too/And you want to be his one and only--his who
And now the choice is yours to either take or break my heart/I'll give in to whatever, I just can't be apart/From you for too long because it will hurt me a lot/Would it be wrong of me to say I think you're hott?/We need each other to keep and to hold/And to be together to grow gray and old/And you must know
Running Away From Me
Do I deserve mistrust from you/I've loved you the same/You say it is something you must do/But I don't think so/You just want to go/But you must know/I think you are running because you are scared/You don't want to be where you are/You know that I've loved you and I've always cared/Please don't go...
So why are you running away from me/I don't understand/I've ever loved you so willingly/You must comprehend/Don't tell me you can't/So give me your hand/I think you are running because you are scared/You don't want to be where you are/You know that I've loved you and I've always cared/Stop running away...
Why did you build this up?/Why did you make this all so false?/Why couldn't you have told the truth?/Why did you make me suffer?
Softer Heartbreak
Somewhere along there, I don't care why/You became a no name; that's real lame, see/And you did put a bid on that kid and I/Do not see exactly why to me this happens
Because I cared and you are scared/Was I too good or ever would/You tell me why you and I/Are no longer, instead of stronger?/I want to share my love and care/I probably would if I could/But you and I no longer lie/In each other's arms--please tell me
And one day I will say it's okay to be/Just what you are used to and you can do your thing/But first let's rehearse: I won't be hurt again/But your kiss I do miss and the bliss that is in it
I feel my heart will break/But I'm still willing to take/The chance that you'll care/It's softer somewhere
(Love Me) If You Can
I've been afraid to tell you how I feel/Because what you'd told me I wasn't sure was real/I've cared for you more than I thought I could/But if you asked me to again, I'm not sure I would/Because it seems like everything was just a lie/I loved you so much; I wish I knew why
You left me to die by myself with a lie/I asked you not to go but you neglected all you know/You cheapened what we had for one lousy kiss/Sometimes I wonder if you truly miss/All we had and what we shared; I never knew if you truly cared/I wanted to run back to you but now I know I can't/I wish you'd just tell the truth and love me if you can
I've been hurt so much, I wish you knew/Exactly what you've put me through/I wish you'd find just what you need/Instead of lying and giving deceit/I hope you know I'll always care/And know that I see everywhere
I'd make you jealous to get you back/But I don't know what you say I lack/What does he have that I do not/Come on, girl, he's not even hott
A Single Thread (4 the 1)
It seems unreal/Like something I couldn't see or feel/It seems too high/For it to be for you and I/It is inside/But it's something I do not want to hide/It seems, it seems
When the stars in the sky/Look upon you and I/They see a love so pure/We all know will endure/Until that very last day/When you and I will both say/I've waited for you/It seems, it seems
What is so wrong/With loving you all along/What does he see/That gives such a reason to hate me/Why does he say/He doesn't want us, but wants what's best anyway/He's wrong, so wrong
I wish tey would leave us to do as WE choose/Instead of getting all mad that we didn't lose/This thread that held us so close for so long/A single thread bound and entwined in this song
As always, more is on the way. I will add more soon...or whenever I feel like it. But check back frequently anyway.
