Do not lose hold of your dreams or aspirations. For if you do, you may still exist but you have ceased to live.

I Be Wetin I Be!
THERE WAS NOT A WAR WHERE SOLDIERS DID NOT EXIST,
THERE WAS NOT A DEVIL, WHERE A GOD DID NOT EXIST,
THERE WAS NOT A FIRE THAT DID NOT BEGET SMOKE,
THERE WAS NOT A SKY WHERE A CLOUD EXISTED NOT,
THEN WHY SHOULD THERE BE I, WHEN I DID NOT EXIST?
I HAVE CEASED TO BE BEFORE BEING,
I HAVE CEASED TO EXIST BEFORE I EVEN EXISTED,
THEN, OF WHAT NEED IS THE PESTILENC?
IF THERE NEVER WAS ANY TO BE PESTERED,
FOR I AM NOT TO BE,
THEN LET ME CEASE TO BE,
THAT MY PEACE MAY BE,
THUS AND THEN, MAY I HAVE BEEN!

If We Hold On Together
Dont lose your way
With each passing day
Youve come so far
Dont throw it away
Live believing
Dreams are for weaving
Wonders are waiting to start
Live your story
Faith, hope & glory
Hold to the truth in your heart
If we hold on together
I know our dreams will never die
Dreams see us through to forever
Where clouds roll by
For you and i
Souls in the wind
Must learn how to bend
Seek out a star
Hold on to the end
Valley, mountain
There is a fountain
Washes our tears all away
Words are swaying
Somebody is praying
Please let us come home to stay
If we hold on together
I know our dreams will never die
Dreams see us through to forever
Where clouds roll by
For you and i
When we are out there in the dark
Well dream about the sun
In the dark well feel the light
Warm our hearts, everyone
If we hold on together
I know our dreams will never die
Dreams see us through to forever
As high as souls can fly
The clouds roll by
For you and i

Love Another Day
Its 3 a.m. and youre still wide awake
Wonderin how much more your broken heart can take
All he left you with is shattered dreams
I know its hard to see right now its not as bad as it seems
Youll live to love another day
Happiness is on its way
Hold on, it wont be long
I know the pain youre living in
Sometimes you gotta lose to win
Its ok, dont you worry baby
We all live to love another day
I know you said you lost your faith in love
But its not written in the stars above
I wouldnt tell you anything but the truth
Cause Ive been where you are and Im living proof
Youll live to love another day
Happiness is on its way
Hold on, it wont be long
I know the pain youre living in
Sometimes you gotta lose to win
Its ok, dont you worry baby
We all live to love another day
Whats here right now didnt come to stay
The suns gonna rise again and the clouds will roll away
Believe me when I say
Youll live to love another day
Happiness is on its way
Hold on, hold on
I know the pain youre living in
Sometimes you gotta lose to win
Its ok, dont you worry baby
We all live to love another day
Dont you worry baby cause we all live to love another day

In Dreams (Life Poem)
In dreams we feel the impossible is easy
In dreams we flee the burdens of this life
In dreams we fly to worlds that don’t exist
In dreams we find the love that cannot be
In dreams we follow a path that never ends
In dreams we fall forever in a nightmare chase.
In dreams we live the jumbled fragments of our lives.

Dont Let Me Lose This Dream
(aretha franklin / ted white)
If I lose this dream
I dont know what Im gonna do
If I lose this dream
Im dreaming about for me and you
If it goes away
I might as well hang it up
cause I dont know
If I have the heart or mind
To make it true
Or help it grow
And I only know, I only know, I only know
If I lose this dream
Its goodbye love and happiness, yes
Youre the one I need
I dont want a love
Thats second best
Thereve been all of my life
I wanted to do
That made me blue
Help me hold onto this dream
For sometimes dreams often come true
And they all come true, they all come true
For me and you
Wait a minute baby
Dont let me lose this dream
Baby, baby hold on
Dont let me lose my dream, no
Baby, baby be strong
You say that a-you believe that what I say is true
And that Im the one and only girl for you
Just tell me
That no matter what the people say
Youre in my corner all the way
And I wont lose this dream
Baby, baby hold on
Dont let me lose my dream, no
Baby, baby be strong
Dont let me lose this dream
Baby, baby hold on
Dont let me lose, lose my dream
Baby, baby hold on
Dont let me, ooh baby

Lets Build A Home In Dreams
LET'S LIVE IN DREAMS
MAY WE CAN FIND THE LOVE AND THE PEACE
CAUSE THERE IS NOTHING THAT CAN EASE
THE PAIN OF LOVE AND BLOODY TEARS
ONLY IF WE LIVE IN DREAMS
LET'S BUILD A HOME IN DREAMS
CAUSE THERE IS NOWHERE TO FIND PEACE
TO HOLD ON TO LOVE AND FORGET THE FEARS
JUST IF WE CAN LIVE IN DREAMS
LET'S USE TO LIVE IN DREAMS
MAY WE CAN FIND THE REAL LOVE AND THE TENDER KISS
AND TOUCH ONCE AGAIN THE FORGOTTEN DREAMS
IF JUST WE COULD LIVE IN DREAMS.

Maybe it's a last beautiful day..
When you left me, i felt lonely like never before
i wished if i can walk with you to the shore
hold your hands a little, talk about night a little
walk steps with you a little and love you a little
Lets forget everything, everything that surrounds
and look at me like it is only me around
sit on the broken walls of the beach
and watch ship sailing off the reach
And you love me like maybe its a last day we're together
you hold me like maybe it is a last day we live together
Tomorrow perhaps a new again will dawn
or perhaps these dreams of tomorrow will be foregone
so let me love you and know no one else but you
time is sieving off my fingers and left is just a few
Maybe it is a day when the days will die
maybe it is a day when we together will die
let us not let this precious time flow like winds of east
in your arms when my life, my time will be ceased
And you love me like maybe its a last day we're together
you hold me like maybe it is a last day we live together
Love me like you never loved any one else O my sun of may
Maybe it is a last beautiful day

Not Everyone Can Be Famous
Not everyone can be famous though many yearn for fame
In a World where millions do die without a penny to their name
And that any hope of an egalatarian Human World cannot exist cannot be denied
Whilst the gap between the haves and the have nots is growing ever wide
Their dreams of great wealth and fame millions do pursue
But for many of course such dreams never come true
And many who have great dreams die in poverty
For dreams are just dreams that's how it seems to be
Around the World today in every village, city and town
People daydream of great things of wealth and renown
And though to live in poverty only the saintlike would choose
For one for to win many destined to lose
To achieve in a big way seems a human need
And though many strive for success only few do succeed.

If You Don't Exist
then who will exist
for you?
who will record
who you are and what you
have done?
nobody.
nobody.
nobody
but you.
because just like you they also
think that they don't exist
come to think of it
if all of us do not exist at all
then who exists?
nothing
nothing
nothing
it is simply absurd when the world
moves and no one is
existing
i don't exist too.
because i have learned
to live.

Republic of dreams
Dreams exist when you are awake
Dreams donnot exist when your asleep
everyone wants to be free and happy, doesn't he?
You are in and out of republic of dreams, aren't you?
Dreams donnot exist when you are asleep
Dreams are awake when you are awakening, aren't they?
Because Of You
well i see the color in your eyes
they set me free, they get me high
no sister flower will be denied, girl
the heat of affection, a fragile mind
because of you(hold) man my dreams came true
because of you
because of you(hold) man my dreams came true
because of you
and i feel the warmth in your touch
my ego trips, i cant get enough
that satisfaction lies in your, girl
i wrote this song, so you'll understand
because of you(hold) man my dreams came true
because of you
because of you(hold) man my dreams came true
because of you
because of you(hold longer) my dreams came true
because of you
because of you(hold longer) my dreams came true
because of you
because of you (hold)
because of you

(I Still Long To Hold You) Now And Then
(Jerry Fuller)
I see you now, I think of then
And dwell upon the happiness of way back when
Cause since you said goodbye
The feelings just won't die
And I still long to hold you now and then
A million years have come and gone
And I was sure by now I'd make it on my own
But seeing you today
Took my breath away
And I still long to hold you now and then
Suddenly I felt myself wondering
If you might wanna try it again
And though I wanted so much to hold you
You smiled and shook my hand
So I'll exist on dreams again
On days when we were lovers and not just friends
And even if I find another love in time
I still long to hold you now and then
Oh, I still long to hold you now and then

Vanishing Dreams
Hold on tight
Shed some light
Wet your apetite
Do not let them slip away
Or they start to lose their colour
day by day, year by year
Right into thin air
There you stand
You seem to have forgotten
Once when you were a little boy
Building castles of dreams with joy
There you now stand
You front, inspired by fustration
Surrounded by countless restrictions
Vanishing Dreams
Fading away quietly into empty streams
It is easy to give in without a bother
Lose your freedom in a common fashioned order
While your dreams vanish one after the other
Our sons and daughters
are still cradling them
Nurturing their stems
On their own conditions and terms
So hold on tight
Wet your apetite
Make your dreams come true
While there is still light

Cant Fight Your Desire
(m&l - deris)
Hes got the woman
Out of your dreams
Youll never find out
What it all means
But youve got patience
And still believe
That youll be there
When she will leave
Someone will lose
Somebodys finding
Somebody smiles
Somebodys crying
Cant fight
You cant fight your desire
You cant fight your dreams, yeah
You cant fight your desire
Hold on to your dreams, yeah
So listen hard now
Man you should know
If youre just waiting
Your doubts will grow
You self-believe
Already small
Get up now
You can have it all
Someone will lose
Somebodys finding
Somebody smiles
Somebodys crying
Cant fight
You cant fight your desire
You cant fight your dreams, yeah
Cant fight
You cant fight your desire
Hold on to your dreams, yeah
Someone will lose
Somebodys finding
Somebody smiles
Somebodys crying
Cant fight
You cant fight your desire
You cant fight your dreams, yeah

Can't Live Without
All the dreams
You can't live without
All the love that you made
You can't live without
If you look at the grief in your heart
And the dreams that you had are all gone
You better stop it now
You just can't take it hard
You better stop it now
You just can't take it so hard, right now
All the praise
You can't live without
All the highs in the days
You can't live without
Well you look to the right and the one
Whos was saying goodbye is now gone
You've gotta stop it now
You just can't take it hard
You better stop it now
You just can't take it so hard, right now
All left behind
I'm not here to find and amaze you
All left my mind
I'm not here to try and appraise you now
I didn't wanna hold you up
You know I wanna hold you
But never wanna hold you up
I didn't wanna call
All the love
You can't live without
All above
You can't live without
Well you look to the right and the one
Who was saving you love for a song
Is telling you she's gone
Right now, oh now
You'd better stop it now
You just can't take it so hard, right now
You'd better stop it now
Or she's gone
Well she's gone
