Love is the extra effort we make in our dealings with those whom we do not like and once you understand that, you understand all. This idea that love overtakes you is nonsense. This is but a polite manifestation of sex. To love another you have to undertake some fragment of their destiny.

Her...
I can never get my mind off her,
I wonder if she'd mind if i'd,
make her my own,
and never let her go,
hug her tight,
treat her right,
act all polite,
take her on a date,
make sure i'm never late,
kiss her on her lips,
talk about our kids,
Make her feel like princess,
living in a castle,
hope that is not too much hassle,
But i am so blessed,
hope i can be the best,
hold you tight,
have your BR3A$t,
on my chest,
pass the test,
NOW YOUR MINE!

I, Love
I
Love
Boy, I love you so
I
Love
You and I have been around each other for quite a while
But I don't think that you understand the way that I feel for you
Baby, it took a while for me (yeah, yeah)
To realize that you were so naive
Well maybe you were blind and cannot see
The feelings I have for you, you don't understand
The things that I've gone through
To paint a perfect picture just for you (picture for you)
I've even told your friends, but that won't do
Well baby, you have to know, I can't wait no more
I
Love you more than you will ever know
Love
I've been trying so hard to show you
I
Love you like a queen would love her king
Love
Baby, I've been trying to show you
Look at me, try to understand that I am here for you
And whatever you're going through no matter what you ask me to do I will do
See baby, I'm trying to make you see (trying to make you see)
This is not pretend or make believe
I wanna be the woman that you need
Just let me get close to you, take me in your heart
Every day I want you more and more (want you more and more)
Never in my life was I so sure
These feelings I have I can't ignore
So baby just let me know
All I'm trying to say is
I
Love you more than I can love myself
Love
I would die before I hurt you
I
Love you like a woman loves a man
Love
When there's no one else to live for
Baby, for so long I've always tried to show you just how much I care for you
Boy, you had to know that I could never let you go
I'll spend the rest of my life trying to make you understand that
I
Love you when there's no more love to give
Love
Baby, I will always want you
I
Love you when you're up against it all
Love
I'll be by your side forever
I
I love you, baby, love you, baby
Love
Love you, baby, love you, baby
I
Love you, baby, love you, baby
Love
I love you, baby, love you, baby
You

Love's A Mystery
Real, almost real
I could feel the life flow into my veins
Done, now it's done
I have fallen for the final time
I can't get up again
Love's a mystery i don't understand
Love's supposed to make you glad
Tell me why i feel so sad
Love's a mystery i don't understand
I won't see you anymore
And if that's what love is for
Then i don't understand
Free, now you're free
You don't need me
And you don't want what i give
(baby here is my heart)
Please, help me please
'cause if life is made for hearts in love
Then how am i to live
Love's a mystery i don't understand
It's so hard to be alone
When the one you love is gone
Love's a mystery i don't understand
You won't stay another day
And if that's all you can say
Then i don't understand

Of Sheer Love
Fabulous,
Fantastic!
Exquisite composition;
My own feeble effort,
Your own feeble effort,
His own feeble effort,
Her own feeble effrot,
And on demand like the pleasures around us! !
But, i will expose my love to you under the mango tree.
To you,
To me,
To him,
To her,
To us! !
And, from the heart;
Of sheer love,
But, under the trees to expose my love to you.
Cattle, battle, wattle, rattle, tattle;
Love the one who loves you and love the one who hates you! !
And like the magic hands of peace across the Queen's land,
But, try to understand my mind in the land of your muse.
Of sheer love,
Forward, backward, ward, reward, afterward;
For, i now understand who you are,
But, under the mango tree i will expose my love to you.

Dear Ben
I just cant control myself
I cant be with no one else
It seems Im addicted to the way you like to touch me
I dont think they understand why I love at your command
From the words you speak, so deep
Our bodies meet, I had to have you
I love you, youre pertect
A manifestation of my dream
You make my body feel about a million different things
I think God made you for me, a mix of passion and fidelity
Baby, youre so complete
I write this song to let you know that you will always be to me
My lust, my love, my man, my child, my friend and my king
I love you, youre perfect
A manifestation of my dream
You make my body feel about a million different things
Theres no way Id leave you
Its just not a reality
Sometimes I feel like Im living in a fantasy

I will make you my destiny
Come sit besides me for a short while,
In my eyes I'll capture your picture,
and I will make you my destiny.
On papery heart I will draw your sketch,
will hide it in the corner easy to fetch,
I will make you my destiny.
You will remain always there,
my heartbeat you will be for ever,
I will make you my destiny.
You will understand whatever I say,
and I will understand what you say,
I will make you my destiny.
I want you and only you,
you're my life's prayer/ destination true,
I will make you my destiny.

What Is There To Understand About Love
What is there to understand,
About love.
What is there to understand,
About being without it.
And spending those nights alone,
Distrusting that 'right' one...
That goes away.
Distrusting that one sleepless night,
When someone loved...
Comes home late,
Without argument to defend.
Or passion to share,
After a fight that begins.
And excuses heard familiar...
Aren't there heard to make.
What is there to understand,
About love...
When none is there to make.
What is there 'then'...
To understand.
No one dreams about the absence of love.
Or who in those dreams are missed...
To share the magic of happiness wished.
As those suspicions take over...
Becoming one's relationship!
What is there to understand.
No one seems to have those dreams,
About someone wrong for them.
Someone who up and goes when they choose...
To return when they please.
To introduce agony inside of one,
That seems to stay...
Not to leave.
What is there to understand,
About love.
The pain that is gained that seems to remain,
To change that love that is no longer the same.
What is there to understand,
About love.
What is there to understand,
About being without it.
And spending those nights alone,
Distrusting that 'right' one...
That goes away.
Distrusting that one sleepless night,
When someone loved...
Comes home late,
Without argument to defend.
Or passion to share,
After a fight...
That had began.
Ending a quarrel to be forgotten...
As love made mends!
What is there to understand,
About love...
That ends.
What is there 'then',
To understand.

They'll Never Understand
They'll never understand why their laughter makes me cry.
They'll never understand that what they call truth I know it to be a lie.
They'll never understand as much as they hate me I love them just as much.
They'll understand why on them I'll never give up.
They'll never understand why I don't blame them for their views.
They'll never understand why I do what I do.
I do it because that is who I am.
But they'll never understand.
Only You
no one seems to stay around me
no one wants to be my friend
no one seems to care for me
only you
who love me this way
only you
who care for me
only you
who stay and fail with me
only you
who have mercy for me
oh my love one
why should i live without you
oh my dear
how can i make you see you are the only one i want
my love
please understand me
understand the way i love you
only you
i could see in my life
only you
i could think of
only you
i could give my breath away
please say that you love me the i do
please say that you feel the same
your heart belong to me
my heart belong to yours
oh my love
what else could i say to make you understand that
you are the only one that i want to kiss tonight
oh only you

I Can't Understand
(Hank DeVito)
If you could read my mind
You'd know how hard I tried
But losing was not my plan
And I can't understand
With all those tears I cried
I should have realized
That I'd never hold you again
And I can't understand
I can't understand
Why you left my love behind
I can't understand
But I'll love you 'til the end of time
I search my memory
For the reason you don't love me
You're passing right through my hands
And I can't understand
If love wasn't meant to be
Then why have this hold on me
I tried to be strong, but then
I can't understand
If you could read my mind
Then you'd know how hard I tried
Losing was not my plan
And I can't understand
So when we meet as friends
My heart will break again
If that's how the story ends
Then I can't understand
If that's how the story ends
Then I can't understand

For The Love Of God
Love is eternal.
Love is beauty.
Love is beauty found in uglyness.
Love can be found in hate.
Love can create hate.
Love can hate.
Love can create.
Love can destroy.
Love can confuse.
Love can mislead.
Love can bleed.
Love can cry.
Love can hurt in more ways than one.
Love can be takin back.
Love can never be lost.
Love can always be found again.
Love will understand you.
Love will guide you.
Love will pick u up when u have fallen.
Love will help u along when u havnt the strength.
Love will get u to ur destiny.
Love will make u beautiful.
Love will make u true.
Love is not hate.
Love will create.
Love will destroy.
Love will confuse.
Love will mislead.
Love will bleed.
Love will cry.
Love will hurt in more ways than one.
But when it is all over and done love comes back to you.
But this love is not the love of another.
It is the love of urself.
The love of ur soal.
The love of god.

So Goes Love
Girl, this is goodbye for us
Im afraid theres no two ways about it
Now you say you need my love, but youll just have to learn to live without it
So goes love
Dont try to understand it
So goes love
It never goes the wya you planned it
When you meant tohe world to me
Thats the time you said you didnt want me
You played around in front of me
Yeah, you did everything you vcould to taunt me
So goes love
Dont try to understand it
So goes love
When it dies you cant diguise it
Its been said youve made your bed
And now you have to lie in it
Theres no denying its a shame
But theres really no one else for you to blame
So goes love
Dont try to understand it
So goes love
It never goes the way you planned it

Song For Judy
you have a funny way of showing it
you have a funny way about
taking all my love and breakin'
don't you know the world is aching, somewhere
you have a funny way about
it's in the sadness in your smile
please try to understand
you'll make an honest man of me yet
i'll take that second chance
as if love was romance
please try to understand
you have a funny way of giving up
it's just the little things that you do
taking all my strength and shakin'
out the doors that i've been savin', someday
please try to understand
you'll make an honest man of me yet
i'll take that second chance
as if love was romance
you have a funny way
you have a funny way
please try to understand
you have a funny way with love

No One Can Explain Why Beauty Dies
No one can explain why Beauty dies
Why those we love so much must leave this world
No one can help us understand
Why what we most care about
Must one day disappear
Nothing will make us ever understand Death-
Why No Dream no Sadness no Pain no Love no Beauty
Will last forever-
We die-
We will never really understand ‘Why? '

About Love
Do you want to understand something about love? !
Then go to the sea and sit down alone;
Do you want to understand something about love? !
Then go to the mountain and take a walk alone;
Do you want ot understand something about love? !
Then go to the forest and walk through it alone;
There and then, the visions of love will touch your heart!
And you will keep your virginity and pass it on to your husband-to-be.

Picture this
On then off relationship does it make sense? My heart
doesn’t understand this nonsense. My heart thinks on its own.
It holds defense when love is doing wrong. Holds offense
to keep its love at a steady beat and in control. My heart
even plays music cause it knows your favorite old R&B songs.
My heart keeps memories of special moments so when I think
of the bad I see the good and wont be mad or sad. My heart
knows it can't win a fight against love. My heart can stay up late
night and argue with love. My heart can't hide love in the dark
because my heart likes to show off love in during day light.
But we can make love at the stroke of midnight. My heart can’t lie
about love. My heart will write about love telling love how much big
love I got over the love I already got for love. My heart can't run from
love don't want to leave it behind. My heart rather walking close to love
to catch everything my heart needs from love. My heart can’t be in two
different places cause it only remember one face. My heart will do
anything to prove its love. My heart can’t close its eyes on love but
my heart could dream about love when I sleep. My heart is not about
to beg for love either you want me or you don't. And they say a person
heart doesn't have a brain.
Does everything happens for a reason or because
how the seasons changes maybe we just don't see
the blessing we have in front of us.

Tolstoy on Love
Love is life. Life is love.
Everything I understand,
I understand only because
I love.
Everything is,
everything exists
only because
I love.
Everything is united by
love alone.
Love is God
and to die means
that I, a particle of love,
shall return to Love itself, whole and complete,
the eternal source of Love itself.

Love can be.
Love can be there when we start,
Love can be there when we depart.
Love can be hot,
Love can be cold.
Love can be an unsure,
Love can be confident as gold.
Love can be good,
Love can be unkind.
Love can be mysterious,
Love can be blind.
Love can be endless,
Love can be short.
Love can be stolen,
Love can be bought.
Love can understand,
Love can be an art,
Love can be tearing apart.
Love can be spoken,
Love can be making.
Love can be broken,
Love can be leaving,
Love can be a cost.
Love can believe,
Love can be lost.
Love can be jealously,
Love can be a task.
Love can be all at sea,
Love can be under a mask.
Love can be big,
Love can be small.
Love can be meaning,
Love can be a phone call.
Love can be sexy,
Love can be in words.
Love can be funny.
Love can be in this verse.
Love can be, like the love in you and me.

Get To Know You Better
(vs.1)
Why do we go through things unnecessary
Why cant we understand that our love is the key
We can solve any problem if we only were meek
But you wont take the time to try and understand me
Our love
(bridge)
Our love will grow much stronger
(grow much stronger)
Our love will last much longer (last)
If we would take the time out
To find out what love is all about
Thats why Im saying
(chorus)
I wanna get to know you better (only if you let me)
Only if you let me
Love will grow much faster
Happy ever after
That is what Im after
I just wanna be with you, you
(vs.2)
I do not understand why we cant make it
But I will tell you one thing
Im not trying to fake it
You can stay if you want to
Cause my love is the same
I will not disappoint you
And I wont be the blame
Our love
(bridge)
That is why Im sayin
(chorus)
La la la la la la (la la la la la la la)
La la la la la la (whoa laaa)
La la la la la la (la la la)
La la la la la la (la la)
