'True love' isn't so much a dreamy feeling that you have as it is an enduring commitment to give sacrificially --even, or perhaps especially, when you don't feel like it.

Just What Do You Really Think Of Love?
Just what do you really think of Love?
Not the heartache nor the sleepless nights,
Nor the dreamy songs and stars above,
Nor a moment's bliss of enchanting sights.
For Love is more than fleeting romance
Lasting through the passing of seasons,
Enduring the storms and the tests of Chance,
Sown on Caring and deep Affection.
True Love like gold will never tarnish.
A rare gem, it's value is priceless.
Life is meaningless with none to cherish
And to find true Love... that's Happiness!

No One Can Love You More
Give you love 2x
I'm gonna give you all my love, all my love (give you all my love)
Give you love 2x
I'm gonna give you all my love, all my love
I used to be on my own
Every night, every day by myself
Feeling so far from home
How would I know I would go
Down the road that would lead me right into your arms
Destiny told me that you were the one
Stars fill the sky now I've finally found you
Chorus:
No one can love you more
No one can give it all
I'm gonna give you all my loving
No one can love you more
I'll give you my heart and soul
Feel it deep down inside
Give you love 2x
I'm gonna give you all my love, all my love (give you all my love)
Give you love 2x
I'm gonna give you all my love, all my love
I thought I was wasting time
Living in hope that I'd find a new love
Love can be so unkind
How could it be you and me took so long
To discover that dreams do come true
Everything's changed since the day I met you
The sun's gonna shine every time we're together
(Chorus 2x)
Yesterday has gone
And from this moment on you will see
This will be a forever lasting love
Give you love 2x
I'm gonna give you all my love, all my love
Give you love 2x
I'm gonna give you all my love, all my love
(Chorus 2x)
Give you love 2x
I'm gonna give you all my love, all my love
Give you love 2x
I'm gonna give you all my love, all my love
No one can love you more 3x

True Commitment
I've got the rain of sulphur on Soldom and Gomorrah,
But do share your tender love with me;
For true commitment means doing it,
And like the bank and the river.
Offer your pitcher and do not urge me to leave you,
For obedience is better than sacrifice!
And like your horn full of oil towards my love.
True love is part of the risk of life!
And with your sweet love to care about;
But true commitment is all that is needed on this love.

True Love
(words & music by cole porter)
Suntanned, windblown, honeymooners at last alone
Feeling far above par, oh how lucky we are
While I give to you and you give to me
True love, true love
So, on and on it will always be
True love, true love
For you and I have a guardian angel on high
With nothing to do but to give to you
And to give to me love forever true

No, but I've always felt that with true talent, and a commitment to hard work, it is possible to achieve an enduring respect and appreciation. In other words, I don't take my fans for granted.

Your Love Is Bad For Me
Your love is bad for me
And yet no other lover makes me so insane
Feel so much pain
You don't belong to me
Every time i hear your voice or speak your name
I feel the same
Just like the first time we made love after so long
What can i do can't shake the feeling it's so strong
Your love is bad for me
I know that much is true
But being so bad is what makes it feel so good
Your love is bad for me
Lie awake most every night thinking of you
And what i'd do
If you were here with me
Love you till you could not take it any more
Then you'd walk out the door
But don't you know you always hurt the one you love
And though it's torture baby, i can't get enough
Sharing your love with someone else is so unkind
But i don't care if i know
Deep inside your mine
But don't you know you always hurt the one you love
And though it's torture baby, i can't get enough
Give me your kiss, give me your heart, give me your mind
I'll take whatever you can give me anytime, yeah
No, no, no
How i love you baby
Sweet baby you're bad for me
But i don't care
Can't you see
You're all i want baby... all i need
And i gotta have you
Your love is bad for me, i know
That much is true
But being so bad is what
Makes it feel so good

What if it's just a feeling?
What if it's just a feeling and nothing more
just a feeling that's never penetrated to the core
and what shall i do if my love is superficial
how shall I act if i find it's not official
what? i simply lie to myself? what if its not real?
what if i don't love her for who she is like a fool
what if my heart uses and deceives me like a tool
I hope this is more than i feel
i want this love to be pure and true
i want it to be the kind where i spend my life with you
but is it so?
is my love strong and full or will it go
away
one day
and leave me hollow
that's a lot to swallow
but my love, o my dear, hat if its a lie?
i don't wish to lie, I believe i love you
i really do
i could write on the whole of the sky
but would that make my love true?
how can i prove that i love you?
what if its just a feeling
hopefully not...hopefully not just a feeling...... i fear

True Love
When I gave you everything that I had
And there was nothing more for me to give
Instead of feeling bad it made you sad
I recall you said ‘that's no way to live'
Then tell me so I know, ‘what is true love? '
And what does the term ‘true love' mean to you
For you it is something to rise above
And how do you know when a love is true?
Cause I only feel emptiness inside
Someone else will take my place tomorrow
Is anything worse than losing your pride?
My heart is heavy and filled with sorrow

Dreamy River
There's a dreamy river flowing
Down the street from my house
I walk down there after work
But I paddle my way home
There's a dreamy river flowing
On every street corner in the world
And if that young moon is in the sky
She'll wink at you and let you pass by
There's a dreamy river flowing
From my refrigerator into my mouth
It only costs a few dollars
To keep those shelves stocked
There's a dreamy river flowing
From my mouth into my gut
There's a dreamy river flowing
From my wank into the street
There's a dreamy river flowing
In my mind as I lay to sleep
There's a dreamy river flowing
From a town I've never been to
Across this great country
And also from overseas
Sometimes from people's kitchens
Transversing time and space
I float down this river
Every night and day
There's a dreamy river flowing
From the hops and the malts and sugar
I call it my brother, I call it my wife
I call it my true friend
Let me float upon you dreamy river
And drown all these sorrows
That call to me from pasts I've severed

Id Rather Be In Love
Words and music by michelle branch
I cannot help it,
I couldnt stop it if I tried,
The same old heart beat fills the emptiness I have inside,
And Ive heard that you cant fight love so I wont complain
Cause why would I stop the fire that keeps me going on.
Cause when theres you,
I feel whole,
And theres no better feeling in the world,
But without you,
Im alone,
And Id rather be in love,
With you.
Turn out the lights now,
To see is to believe,
I just want you near me,
I just want you here with me,
And Id give up everything only for you,
Its the least that I could do.
Cause when theres you,
I feel whole,
And theres no better feeling in the world,
But without you,
Im alone,
And Id rather be in love,
Yes Id rather be in love,
With you.
And I feel you holding me.
Why are we afraid to be in love,
To be loved,
I cant explain it,
I know its tough, to be loved.
And I feel you holding me.
Cause when theres you,
I feel whole,
And theres no better feeling in the world,
But without you,
Im alone,
And Id rather be in love,
Oh Id rather be in love,
Yes Id rather be in love,
With you.
And I feel you holding me.

Today I Understand This Perfectly
I use to think it selfish for those of peace of mind,
To have little time to give to others.
But 'today'...
I understand this perfectly.
For one to sacrificially give of themselves to others,
Only to be left disrespected?
As another's druthers...
NO!
This is not right.
No one should give of themselves that way,
For the sake of humiliation.
That is a price, ultimately, forgotten one has paid.
And only God knows,
Whether or not such a deed has been worth it!

You'll Never Know How Much I Love You
My love for you will infinitely grow,
I promise I love you with all my body, heart, and soul.
When I feel your skin, at first touch,
I get this feeling, like I mean so much.
I love the way you smile,
I love that special feeling you give me,
That always lingers for a while,
No one but me will ever see,
How sweet my baby can be.
I love the way we cuddle at night,
Don't worry baby, don't feel fright,
Put your head on my chest, and I'll hold you tight.
I love the way we kiss,
Lips so soft, fills me with bliss.
I've loved you with all my heart,
Right from the very start.
I hope you take my words for true,
I promise, I'll always love you.

Edan With Burn For Both
Playing with others when commitment rotting
Eden will burn for both
when each other no longer need
seek breaking
lies are hard on life
love is easy when ids need satisfing
heart break is harder when soul purged
so love who you want, but make sure attached not
true love is true love and lust is just that lust
so play with others when commitment is rotting
remember eden will eventully burn for you both

It Takes One To Know One's Love
It takes one to know one's love!
So enduring,
So lovely;
And, we are who we love on this earth.
It takes one to know one's love!
So enduring,
So lovely;
And, you are what you eat on this earth.
Please, pleased!
So enduring,
So lovely;
And, you will always stay in my heart.
Cloak, oak, soak, croak;
Block, lock, dock, mock, cock, rock!
However, it takes one to know one's love.
So enduring,
So lovely! !
Bock, pock, clock, hock, knock, stock;
But, it takes one to know one's love.

Just No Other Way
Here we are, alone again
In your arms again, and keeps on getting better
Well I don't need to read your mind
'Cause baby in your eyes, I can almost see forever
But before you go too far, before I fall too fast
Baby you should know, I need love that's gonna last
You gotta promise to be here
Through the laughter and the tears
Let me know that you're mine
Everyday, every night... 'cause
Chorus:
There's just no other way to love me
Take my heart, take my soul
Baby never let me go
No, there's just no other way to love me
That's the way it should be
If you gonna fall in love with me
'Cause there's just no other way to love me
Let me show you how much I care
And baby I swear, I'll be right there when you need me
But I gotta know that you'll always be true (always be true)
That you're gonna see this through
And give your heart completely
I wanna feel it when we kiss, believe when we touch
Babydon't just say you love me, 'cause words are not enough
I wanna see it in your eyes, believe it deep inside
I gotta know you'll be here
Everyday, every night ('cause)
(Chorus)
I will never ask for more than I'll give to you
(Gonna give me everything)
I wanna give him my everything
But I gotta know that my heart is true
Every day (every day)
Every night (every night)
For the rest of my life... 'cause
Commitment baby that's what I need
A heart that belongs only to me
I wanna feel it when we kiss, believe when we touch
Babydon't just say you love me, 'cause words are not enough
I wanna see it in your eyes, believe it deep inside
I gotta know you'll be here
Everyday, every night ('cause)
'Cause there's just no other way to love me
Just no other way to love me

To love a man like you
Somewhere back in time
You became a friend of mine
And as the seasons passes by
There something about I can’t explain
That love grows inside of me
I think I have done this far
Because of you
I feel in love a couple of time
To a man, like you
And it gets stronger everyday
How much longer will it take?
It is amazing to a girl like me
Can feel this way
To love a man like you
There is something about you
Well, I do not know
Even my heart could not find words
Where it was been?
How does it happen?
Until I fall in love again
A love that like an ocean overflowing
But it takes a miracle of magic
To a woman like me
To love a man like you
One touched of blue
To paint of the sky
To climb a rainbow so high
Just to love a man like you
Well, it takes some rain to fall
For you to know
This feeling I hide in a river of love
One more lullabies for you to reach out
Coz to love a man like you
Is like a hundred times of sweet melody
A thousand smiles you will see in my eyes
Well, it takes a dropp of morning dew
Just to wake me up on my dreamy day
Coz to love a man like you
Is like a dream come true
Well, it is a wonderful day I have to say
It’s all because of you
Don’t wake me up on this spell of love

Don't play with me
Love is a great feeling
But it can tear you apart
Not knowing what the outcome
And what others have in their hearts
You give your best shot …hoping all is fine
Caring far too much …you have to draw a line
I don't know why I feel this way
But honestly it is true
I just want to be with you…and now I feel so blue
I hope you will love me the same…
With your actions I should see
And love me for who I am…and not play with me.

This Must Be Love
It must be love, Im feeling
This must be love
Oh this must be love, Im feeling
This must be love
Well I wait in every day, just in case,
You decide to call
And I can hardly wait, cos I never thought time could pass so slowly
It must be love, Im feeling
This must be love
Oh this must be love, Im feeling
This must be love
Happiness is something I never thought Id feel again, but now I know
Its you that Ive been looking for
And day by day more and more
I know what you think, youve heard it before
Dont tell me I know
But this feeling inside my heart,
You know Im never letting go
cos I think that...
It must be love, Im feeling
This must be love
Oh this must be love, Im feeling
This must be love
Words can only say so much
Its hard to express
The things you do to me
Youre everything I could ever dreamed youd be
This must be love, Im feeling
This must be love
Oh this must be love, Im feeling
This must be love...

True Love Hurts
if love was a light
and the earth was the soul
Can it be truth
or can it be coal
no one has ever found that feeling,
the feeling when you find true love
because you wonder if it even is true!
untill you put on cinderella's shoe
you think that everything has a happy ending
just like in those fairy tales
but you still never give up
even if you know it fails
a wedding is just False
you think that you have found true love
you know that you will get divorced someday
no matter how strong, you just have had enough
a wedding is supposed to be the greatest day of your life
not your worst
especially after he say's 'i now pronounce you husband and wife'
so ask yourself
have you REALLY found true love?
