There are moments of life that we never forget, which brighten and brighten as time steals away.

Ive Been Here Before
Ive tried so many times
To keep romance alive
I guess I never really had true love
Then you came my way
And nothings been the same
Now youre all Im ever thinking of
If I had the say youd be staying
Chorus
Hey Ive been here before
Looking in your eyes see just a little more I said
Hey Ive been here before
Someone must have sent you down to brighten up my life
One in a million boy
You fill me up with joy
Sometimes I dont believe in accidents
I know were meant to be
Its so plain to see
From here on out it where the fun begins
If I have the say youll be staying
Chorus
Hey Ive been here before
Looking in your eyes see just a little more I say
Hey Ive been here before
Someone must have sent you down to brighten up my life
Sent you down to brighten up my life
Bridge
Sometimes the obvious is hard to see
Now here you are standing right in front of me
I could have missed my one and only
Chance for love chance for love oh
Hey Ive been here before
Looking in your eyes see just a little more I said
Hey Ive been here before
Someone must have sent you down to brighten up my
Sent you down to brighten up my life

Keep On The Sunnyside
(alvin pleasant carter, gary garett)
Theres a dark and a troubled side of life
Theres a bright and a sunnyside, too.
Though we meet with the darkness and strife
The sunnyside we also may view.
Keep on the sunnyside
Always on the sunnyside
Keep on the sunnyside of life.
It will help us every day
It will brighten all our way
If we keep on the sunnyside of life.
The storm and its fury rage today
Crushing hope that we cherished so dear.
Storm and clouds will in time pass away,
The sun again will shine bright and clear.
Keep on the sunnyside
Always on the sunnyside
Keep on the sunnyside of life.
It will help us every day
It will brighten all our way
If we keep on the sunnyside of life.
May the street with the song of hope be paved
Though the moment be cloudy or fair.
May we trust in the good lord always
To keep us everyone in his care.
Keep on the sunnyside
Always on the sunnyside
Keep on the sunnyside of life.
It will help us every day
It will brighten all our way
If we keep on the sunnyside of life.
Keep on the sunnyside
Always on the sunnyside
Keep on the sunnyside of life.
It will help us every day
It will brighten all our way
If we keep on ...

Yours
You brighten up the moon and stars at night
You keep me seeing rainbows in the sky
You bring new meaning to my life, now
I believe in miracles baby I'm forever yours, yours
Tender love's what you're giving me and
You surpass all my fantasies and
I keep thanking the Lord above for
Blessing me with oh so much
Cause I know how it feels to be
part of you boy
Everyday of my life's so abundant
With joy
And I honestly never thought love
could be real
until the angels guided you to me
You brighten up the moon and stars at night
You keep me seeing rainbows in the sky
You bring new meaning to my life, now
I believe in miracles baby I'm forever yours, yours
Lying with you so natural
I never knew this was possible
And it finally feels like my life has begun
now that I can share it with someone
You brighten up the moon and stars at night
You keep me seeing rainbows in the sky
You bring new meaning to my life, now
I believe in miracles baby I'm forever yours, yours
You brighten up the moon and stars at night
You keep me seeing rainbows in the sky
You bring new meaning to my life, now
I believe in miracles baby I'm forever yours, yours
Baby our love will always persevere
Anything you ever need,
You know I'll be right here and
You don't have to worry boy
I won't betray your trust
Because I'm so much in love
Every time your lips meet mine
It still feels like the first time
And if you lost everything
I'd keep on standing by your side
And boy it seems like everyday
I fall deeper in love
Because I can't get enough
You brighten up the moon and stars at night
You keep me seeing rainbows in the sky
You bring new meaning to my life, now
I believe in miracles baby I'm forever yours, yours
You brighten up the moon and stars at night
You keep me seeing rainbows in the sky
You bring new meaning to my life, now
I believe in miracles baby I'm forever yours, yours
Yours
Yours
Yours
Yours
Everything that you do's so amazing
Everything that you do's so amazing
Everything that you do's so amazing
Everything that you do's so amazing to me
Boy
You brighten up the moon and stars at night
You keep me seeing rainbows in the sky
You bring new meaning to my life, now
I believe in miracles baby I'm forever yours, yours
(Baby I believe in miracles because I'm baby I'm forever yours. I believe in miracles baby I'm forever yours)

Life is just a bore
Its a drag to leave my door
Guess Ill have to say

Ill buy a top hat to brighten up my lonely life
And they can see that Ive got the money for the things money brings
Put it on my head and each time I head to bed
Put it in a box near my dirty shoes an socks

If we work upon marble, it will perish if we work upon brass, time will efface it if we rear temples, they will crumble into dust but if we work upon immortal minds and instill into them just principles, we are then engraving that upon tablets which no time will efface, but will brighten and brighten to all eternity.

Where Is The Light
Where is the light
to brighten my world
making the sunshine
to illuminate each day?
Where is the light
I need as a guide
through the darkness
that follows me around?
Where is the light
that friendship holds
to brighten my frown
with a warm face aglow?
Where is the light
that has disappeared
from my life
leaving me alone?

Prayer of wandering heart
Take my bronze,
Take my silver,
Take my gold,
give me some days of carefree childhood with lot of love everyone I fond,
give me some days of youth full of energy and health beyond,
give me some more people in life those can understand my feelings,
and can help me in my need to brighten my life,
give me the reason in my life for what I was born,
give me something I can help old and person in need and can brighten their life by my efforts indeed,
Take my silver Take my gold I don't need these things anymore.

Smiles Are Something Speacial
I love to smile,
for a smile is something speacial
that it could brighten up a day,
smile,
I smile to people, whom has unhappy days,
you may have gone through bad times,
and flown,
but after awhile you smile like a little clown,
you sometimes even smile because somethings are funny,
smiles are also make in other ways,
like me,
I like to show my bear smile face,
that would make my mommy just laugh,
so will you just give a little smile that will just brighten up your day
it's really speacial in a way...

Your Happiness Matters
I'm sending you some humor
to brighten up your day,
may you smile or even laugh
and feel that life's okay.
I hope you escape the worry
of what others think of you,
you are seen in a better light
than what you think is true.
Your mind is full of thought
and the idea may seem real,
don't let worry in your heart
because it matters how you feel.
Take a break from the day
to help ease the inner pain,
some days you feel depressed
but there is hope after the rain.
Don't give up on the joys of life
when you aren't feeling good,
you are the better person
doing everything you should.
As a friend you are there
when others need a hand,
There are many there for you
that care and understand.
You are fun to be around
and happiness has its way,
You are liked for being you
no matter what you say.
Some days you may struggle
and no longer want to try,
so, enjoy the funny moments
and forget what makes you cry.

You
Maurice white, david foster & brenda russel
She was naive, and never knew
Back against the world--her dreams came true
There is a mirror in her eyes,
All the world with cherry painted skies
I would be a fool, not to notice who,
Can make me want to give it all
Oh, and now, Im a happy soul
That love has got a hold
And I know that love wont let me fall
You--light the way, you brighten up my day
You make me want to stay,
I guess you know that Im in love with you
Its true, you changed my point of view,
And now I look at life, the way you do,
With a beauty shining thru
When I am true with my dreams
Life is so sincere, in what it means
I am truly hypnotized--with a love
That took me by surprise
I would be a fool, not to notice who,
Can make me want to give it all
Oh and now, love is so profound.
I need your love around to open yp,
This lonely heart
You--light the way, you brighten up my day
You make me want to stay,
I guess you know that Im in love with you
Its true, you changed my point of view,
And now I look at life, the way you do,
With a beauty shining thru
You-light the way, you brighten up my day
You make me want to stay,
I guess you know that Im in love with you
Its true, you changed my point of view,
You make it all seem right,
Id love to share my life, with you

My Canadian Chronicles 20
It is nice to see someone smile
and occasionally we do this
by doing things unexpectedly.
As we walk around each day,
we might see something
someone we know might like.
If you are like me, you will buy it
and give them a little surprise.
You will be surprised by their reaction
and how much it cheers them up.
I always take the time
to wrap the present up.
It adds just a little more when they unwrap it.
Making someone smile
can make you feel good as well.
In these days when worries plague our mind
lets take a few moments
to distract them away from theirs.
As it is good to give whenever we can
and brighten up someone’s life.
You never know
there maybe a day
when they will do it to you.

No Lost Day
No day is lost if you have cared
To help someone along life's way.
Some food to stop the hunger pain
Or flowers to brighten an ill one's day. How about reading a story to a child?
Or an errand to post letter or buy lace?
How about a new mop, and you do the floors
And cause a smile on an elderly face? Maybe you remember another's birthday
So you mix, bake, and decorate a cake,
Call some friends and surprise a lady
Then all enjoy the happiness your thoughts did make. The weeding of a flower garden, old or new,
For blossoms to brighten many a heart
And bring blessings to all who see the view
You labors of love that sets life apart. A new baby received your crocheted beauties.
A graduate will long cherish the afghan, too.
So by your good deeds you show God's love,
Proving no day is lost in all that you do.

Brighten Your Night With My Day
Daybreak finds you up and alive
Just as though you could touch a star
But sunset seems to leave you weary alone
And wondering who you are
Dont deny that lonely feeling
That keeps stealing on you from deep down inside
Hey, cant you see that its no good concealing
A feeling it hurts you to hide
When you can come home to me
Yes, Im happy to hear what youve got
To say to me, baby, all the way
Girl, you can count on me
Watch those shadows fade away
And brighten your night with my day
Daybreak, sunset hot and cold
Running smiles and tears
A bright outside to match your foolish pride
But not a word for the lonely years
Please come back to me
Now you wont have to say
That youll stay with me, baby, no, its not that way
Just come back home to me
Watch those shadows fade away
And brighten your night with my...
Daybreak, sunset
You dont have to cry no more
Now, everythings gonna be just fine
Watch out, baby, here it comes
Right around the corner
Here it comes
Just brighten your night with my day

It's the little things that make a big difference.
some say it's the little things that matter,
i'm starting to see why,
these are the moments that you remember,
when somebody takes the time,
to do something special,
that one little thing,
can brighten up somebodys day,
i'm not a hard person to please,
it just that some take me for granted,
they bring out the worse in me,
of course i'm going to ask for more,
i love to share my kindness,
but only to ppl who deserve it,
call me mean,
i'm starting not to care,
if i cared what everybody think,
just to make them happy,
all of that don't mean a thing,
if i'm not the one happy.

To A Special Person
I sometimes wonder if you realise
How special you are, in my eyes?
Or if you have even the slightest clue
That my affections for you, are really true?
To my life, you add some much needed light.
You believe that my future could be so bright.
When I am with you, I can't help but smile;
It makes me feel happy, if only for a while.
To other people, you often sing my praise.
You can brighten up even the darkest days.
You always champion all that I achieve;
In my efforts, you always seem to believe.
I love your motherly attention and affection.
You always point me in the right direction.
Being by your side is always so much fun.
In my eyes, you're just like a second mum.
Time spent with you, is always a pleasure;
There are many moments that I will treasure.
Me, you always do your very best to include.
When we meet, you're in such a happy mood.
To me, you are always so extremely sweet.
Being in your company just cannot be beat.
To spend time with you, I travel so very far;
I wonder if you know just how special you are?

New Year's Baby
When i first saw you you looked alien
Like someone in mid dance
Like a little old man
When you first held me in your tiny grip
You seemdd just like popeye
With your cap and your souint
Chorus:
shall we sail away with bluebirds and clear skies
no frowns today just smiles that will brighten our way
and i'll take this old man by the hand
to begin again... to begin again...
When i first looked into eyes like mine
I wondered what i learn
To see through them in time
When you first smiled with your toothless grin
You broke my heart break open
All the flood gates rushed in
Chorus:
shall we sail away with bluebirds and clear skies
no frowns today just smiles that will brighten our way
and i'll take this old man by the hand

Theres A Change In The Weather
(sung by working class man, middle class man and upper class man)
Im just a simple working man
Gettin by the best I can
In this crazy mixed-up muddled-up world that I live in.
Im a middle class sort of a guy
Im not rich but I get by
Pretending that I know just what Im doin.
Im a well bred upper class sort of chap,
I dont care much about this and that
Even when I know theres trouble brewin.
We think theres a change in the weather
Weve got to learn to stick together.
Weve seen the thunder clouds in the sky,
I wanna live, I dont wanna die.
I think the weathers changing, I hope the weather is gonna change.
I hope its a change for the better and it will brighten up my day.
I think theres a change in the weather, I hope good weather is here to stay,
I hope its a change for the better and it will brighten up my day.
See the holocaust risin over the horizon,
Gonna see a manifestation, total chaos, devastation,
Anticyclone and tornados brewin,
Gonna feel the lightnin strikin,
Thunder clap smoke a frightnin,
Theres gonna be evil doin,
Theres trouble brewin,
Everybody scared,
Too much thunder, too much fightin.
Heavy storm clouds comin,
Gonna cover up the sun
And gonna terrify everyone,
Better pack up your bags and run.
I think theres a change in the weather, I think the weather is going to change.
I hope its a change for the better and it will brighten up my day.
I think theres a change in the weather, I hope good weather is here to stay.
I hope its a change for the better and it will brighten up my day.
