Never My Heart
You asked me how I knew
I just knew it was you
Right from the very start
You took away my heart
And never gave it back to me
Even after I set you free
To find someone better than me
Those feelings wouldn't let me be
For what seems like an eternity
So now I hold you in my dreams
For in my dreams you must be
Life has pasted us by
In yesterdays you will always be mine
Now till the end time
For I have never let go
In my heart

I Never Knew Love
I asked you to come inside my heart
And there you were
I asked for a pure and gentle start
And there you were
I asked fif this love could ever be
The way that I've dreamt of it you see
I never knew love
I asked you to open up my eyes
And there you were
I asked for the keys to paradise
And there you were
They say only ask and you'll receive
I never knew that applied to me
I never knew love
Life is good life is sweet
It's the way we perceive
Cynics say we can dream
Change your mind heal the world
It's easy just believe
I asked for a change in all my life
And there you were
You're everything I had hoped to find
Yes, there you were
I hope and I pray that you will find
A peace and a joy as great as mine
All about love I hope you find love

Destiney's Desire
I love you so much that I cant even believe
it hurts if I think and when I breath
I’ve seen you touched you once in my dreams
I’ve shouted your name but you haven’t returned my screams
I am obsessed I am haunted when it comes to you
I’ll wait I am patient only because I am compelled to
I hear your voice minutes away I know your future not your past
those minutes seem like years till you get here then they turn too fast
I see your eyes I know an earthquake’s coming
I stand still I wont hide or even try running
you come close step by step your'e not even reluctant
you approach with no fear no second thoughts like it was meant
you walk near me you nearly pass me by
I grab your hand with anger and ask why
I ask when it will stop, when will it all come to an end
you said it wont you cant, your faithful you’ll even pretend
I knew you were right and I was wrong
I knew your feelings for me were strong
I asked you to betray I asked you to be mine only
you asked me to let go you crushed my dreams slowly
I released you and I released every other bird that day
I knew you’d leave my heart my cage but hope wished you’d stay
I lost you I lose everything I was poor but my tears were for free
I saw you once again with that fake smile on that same tree
I saw your invisible tears I heard your rushing heart
I listened to your silent words and from that day we are apart
I know now what you are I figured it all out I have answers to all
your faithful your devoted you’re a rare person still owning a soul

Run Away
(eric carmen)
She was just an average blue-eyed
Golden high school dream
An illusion nothing real could ever touch
Funny love seemed so much more intense
At seventeen
When I knew shed never love me
Half as much
I recall the desperate vow I made
I must find a way somehow to win her heart
Ive got to make her mine
Gonna run away
Till I prove that Im a man
Gonna run away
Be the best I know I can
Got to run away
Got to find my space and time
And I cannot rest a day until I make her mine
Trades were made for promises
Of a timeless memory
And I knew but still refused to comprehend
The fantasy more glamorous
Then she could ever be
Was the course of least resistance
In the end
I recall the desperate vow I made
I must find a way somehow to win her heart
Ive got to make her mine
Gonna run away
Till I prove that Im a man
Gonna run away
Be the best I know I can
Got to run away
Got to find my space and time
And I cannot rest a day until I make her mine
Long ago an innocence
Lived deep within my soul
In a yesterday where love
And dreams remain
But disillusion clouds my eyes
And the winter takes its toll
For the spring has gone
And will not come again
I recall the desperate vow I made
I must find a way somehow to win her heart
Ive got to make her mine
Gonna run away
Till I prove that Im a man
Gonna run away
Be the best I know I can
Got to run away
Got to find my space and time
And I cannot rest a day until I make her mine
Got to run away
Got to find my space and time
And I cannot rest a day until I make her mine

Brokenhearted Melody
I knew a woman
Treated me kind
Gave her all my dreams
Though she didn't know
Or if she did, she didn't say
I knew a woman
Mysterious and fine
Gaver her all my love
Seemed like, in a nick of time
But she didn't stay, didn't stay
I knew a woman
Soft and gentle
Stayed on my mind, on my mind
No need for sympathy
Maybe another day
I knew a woman
I never could let go
She was in my heart
No matter where I'd go
Come what may, come what may
I knew a woman
Think of her all the time
She couldn't feel my love
She's gone, no worries
Don't remind, Don't remind
Got to go now
Running out of time, runnin' out of time
A memory in my heart and mind
Would have loved her
For all time, for all time, don't remind
One day a sweet angel's going to find me
Rest this weary heart of mine
Going to love me for all time
Everything's going to somehow work out fine
Hope I've still got time, pray I've still got time

The Other Side
The waiting game is over, no need for pretending, we were meant to be
Its only getting stronger, the love I feel for you, its no mystery
Ive got to find some way to tell you, though our world seems far apart
It just dont have to be
The time has come to testify, all the feelings Ive been holding back
Its time to set them free
Chorus:
Ive been watching you from the other side
Ive been wanting to hold you through the night
Ive got to find my way to the other side
I want to hold you tonight and forever
The moment that I saw you
I knew inside my heart, all my dreams would come true
I know it took some time to realize
A love we cant deny, Ive got to see it through
Chorus
I want to be the one who loves you, now and forever
I want to take my place beside you
I want to be the one to hold you, now and forever
I will meet you there on the other side
(instrumental break)
Chorus repeats 2x
From the other side, from the other side
I want to hold you tonight and forever

Hard For Them to Believe
I was asked,
At a time...
If I knew what I was doing?
As if my thoughts,
Could not produce my deeds.
As if my efforts,
Did not match where I lived.
Since I was born and lived in the ghetto.
And I should not be aware or know,
Of those things I did!
As If my blackness was for them limited!
Like it was for friends I had,
And some relatives.
All believing then I was trying to be white...
And not the black neighborhood kid!
Who did for me,
What I knew was right!
They believed I should be,
That kind to clown and be down to Earth.
And not have a mind as creative as mine!
With dreams to fulfill...
That broke down barriars and walls,
Others believed I existed behind!
And not to know my own value or worth.
Or reach for heights...
Few I knew took effort to climb!
I was asked,
At a time...
If I knew what I was doing?
I am not asked 'that' question anymore.
Today,
Some try to downplay...
My affect!
But I had always known,
To be grateful to be blessed.
And let God handle the rest!
I was asked,
At a time...
If I knew what I was doing?
Of course I knew.
From the very beginning.
But the few who did not know...
Now they do too!
And nothing has changed...
From where I live,
To what I do.
And that is a fact...
Hard for them to believe!
That I can say who I am.
Be who I am.
Stay where I am and know it!
AND achieve!

One Wish
If we could start over.
Make what was old new.
I would try my hardest.
To make your dreams come true.
I'd be the man of your dreams.
I'd hold on to your heart.
If I had but one wish.
I'd wish for a fresh start.
To grow old with the one.
That my heart desires.
The love of my life.
The flame of my fire.
If you knew my love.
You'd have to agree.
She's the most beautiful girl.
You ever will see.
Her smile is so warm.
It shines very bright.
It lights up the sky.
In the darkest of nights.
Her laugh fills my heart.
The joy that it brings.
It's a beautiful melody.
Like a meadowlark sings.
Her eyes are like heaven.
My breath they do take.
She's like the most beautiful dream.
From which you never want to wake.
If I had but one wish.
That I know would come true.
I would wish for the chance.
To start over with you.

If It Were You
Theres a time when the heart can no longer give in
You try to stand up and fight
Youve known pain for so long and you know whats gone wrong
But you cant make it right
Another broken heart is all youre feeling
How can you go on
But the memories of the times there was love in your eyes
Keep leading me on
(chorus)
If it were you
Would you hold on and hope that it might
Bring back the dreams we once knew
Or just give up forever that part of your life
Tell me what would you do
If it were you
You can never take back all youve given in love
No matter how hard you try
Once its over and done you just have to let go
Though a part of you died
Another waste of time is all thats left now
But life must go on
All the nights that we spent, never thought they would end
Why cant they go on
(chorus)
If it were you
Would you hold on and hope that it might
Bring back the love we once knew
Or just give up forever that part of your life
Tell me what would you do
If it were you
If it were you
Tell me what would you do
If it were you
Over and over I go back through time
Didnt we promise our love till we die
Asking you deep down inside
Did we really try
Another broken heart is all thats left
But life must go on
All the nights that we spent, never thought they would end
Why cant they go on
(chorus)

Captured
(e lewis)
Easier said than done
I should have known that the best was yet to come
As the object of my affection
Would I dare confess to you?
Fantasies that haunt me
Dreams of how our passions could be set free
Magic nights wed share
I never knew youd care
Quite like you said you did
You captured my heart
How many times did I try to say
It will be easier just to walk away
But at the mercy of my obsession
Didnt dare confess to you
How I long for you to want me
To my fantasies you hold the key
Passions that wed share
I never knew youd care quite like you said you did
You captured my heart
You dazzled me blind
Oh were flying high
A perfect love to find
You captured my heart
Oh please say you want to stay with me forever
How I long to kiss your lovely face, pretty baby
Every night you haunt my dreams
Theres no need to fantasize, youre here with me
Since I captured your heart
Captured captured my heart
Captured my heart
Captured captured my heart
Captured my heart
Captured captured my heart
Captured my heart
Captured captured my heart
Captured my heart

My Dream Girl
In my dreams she will always be my Dream Girl
Her love is my desired dream
Love, her love, will forever be my desire
Since, with her I feel so complete.
Mine, she is mine and I mean it
Even though, the reality has stolen her away from me
Still, in my dreams I will dream about her
Life, does not have answers to all our problems
Crying, cannot solve anything
That is why I am praying for her well being with the true feelings of my heart
Love her I do so much
Even she knows it and nothing is her fault
I love her so much, since she cared about me when nobody else even thought about me
She is a perfect soul and I love her so much
Till, the last breath of mine, she will be only mine
Even though just in my dreams, only in my dreams.

Everything I Own
You sheltered me from harm
Kept me warm kept me warm
You gave my life to me
You set me free
Set me free
The finest years I ever knew
For all the years I had with you
I would give anything I own
I'd give up me life my heart my home
I would give everything I own
Just to have you back again
You taught me how to love
What a time what a time
You never said too much
But still you showed the way
And I knew from watching you
Nobody else could ever know
The part of me that can't let go
I would give everything I own
Give up me life, my heart, my home
I would give everything I own
Just to have you back again
Is there someone you know
Loving them so
Taking them all for granted
You may lose them one day
Someone takes them away
And they don't hear the words you
Long to say
Give up my life, give up my heart
Everthing I own
I would give anything I own
Give up me life, my heart, my home
I would give everything I own Just to have you back again

Cheatin In Your Dreams
You see me now as large as life, but underneath you knew all too well
The hollow shell, no spark of life
Where once upon a time there beat a heart
For you and you knew it from the start, and you went and blew it all away
And you knew how, oh you knew best
The strings to pull and buttons to press
To wind me up and make me shake, you controlling every move I made
I couldnt see through it, all the pain, and you put me through it
Over and over again, just tell me over and over and over
Chorus:
How could you say there was no other, why is it nothings what it seems
You told me Im your greatest lover, do you even know what that word means
Your lovin is coolin, baby who ya think youre foolin
cos when I woke up I caught you cheatin in your dreams
When I woke up I caught you cheatin in your dreams
Stop it! stop it! dont you say a word
I feel my hands around her neck and everything went blurred
Broken, broken, she slipped from out my hands
She lay so still and lifeless, I cried baby, baby, baby
(chorus)
(cheatin, cheatin, cheatin in your dreams)
(cheatin, cheatin, cheatin in your dreams)
It was my dumb luck, I just came unstuck
My whole world shook, Id had about enough
When I woke up, I caught you cheatin in your dreams
(cheatin, cheatin, cheatin in your dreams)

Because Of You
It was once for you
In the summer sun, the sense of gentle breeze
Stirred my heart.
The words of mine were shedding jasmine,
Only found the hard ground to fall upon,
Beneath your feet, ignored….
Wish you ever knew!
With the closed eyes though
I carried a fragrant soul, only because of you.
It was only because of you then
A storm arouse to leave an inebriated mind
I floated like a broken leaf in that wind
Whispered in your ears my pain, my joy…
Didn't know though, if I was ever heard!
Amazed at your beauty of bloomed Poinciana
Colored heart of mine ever cared for you;
Even I feared sometimes of losing you
When your open arms seemed to have touched the sky.
It was only because of you
I ever had wings to fly...
My dreams could touch the rainbow...
Waiting to bloom, I knew the bud's cry.
With the tide of time, I find you far away.
Dreams are like autumn leaves, broken….
Found ground to lie.
Craving for love the deserted heart only knew
To shower tears upon stones.
It's because of you.

Everything I Own
everything i own
You sheltered me from harm
Kept me warm, you kept me warm
You gave my life to me
You set me free, set me free
Of all the years i ever knew
Those finer ones i spent with you
I would give everything i own
Give up my life, my heart, my home
I would give everything i own
Just to have you back again
You taught me how to cry
I don't know why, just don't know why
You told those lies to me
You set me free, set me free
Of all the years i ever knew
Those finer ones i spent with you
I would give everything i own
Give up my life, my heart, my home
I would give everything i own
Just to have you back again
Just to hold you once again
If there's someone you know
That won't let you go
And is taking it all for granted
You may lose them one day
Someone take them away
And you don't hear a word they say
I would give everything i own
Give up my life, my heart, my home
I would give everything i own
Just to have you back again

Find Your Way Back
You know its been a long long road
Since I packed up and left on my own

You got no place to be
Still you wonder where youre goin
And why I had to leave
I hear a voice and it says to me
Find your way back
Find your way back to her heart
Find your way back
Find your way back to her heart
To her heart, cmon
I know its too late now
But I wish I could go back in time
And start all over somehow
And get it right from the start
Find your way back
Find your way back to her heart

Find your way back to her heart
Find your way back (find your way back) find your way back

It must be you
Rising in the still air
A plume of smoke denotes
that there is someone there.
But Who?
My secret hideaway
to keep the world at bay.
A peaceful place to stay.
Did you
consult your scrying bowl
to find my hidey hole?
You cannot own my soul
can you?
You already have my heart.
Captured by your woman’s art.
I knew that from the start.
But You
have to play hard to get.
I am not sure even yet.
Which leaves my life upset.
If You
could love some one like me,
If not then set me free.
cancel your sorcery
I rue
But I cannot forget
the day we first met.
A matter for regret.
If you.
don’t feel the way I do.
It may be that you do
if so it’s time I knew.
Do you.
They say dreams can come true
although they seldom do.
My hope rises anew.
It must be you.

Careless Heart
Roy orbison/diane warren/albert hammond
I had somebody,somebody who loved me.someone so good to me.
You were my angel, you were my heaven, but i was too blind to see.
I let you slip away, i guess i never knew.i had the world with you .
I'd be there, still be there in your arms.
If not for my careless heart.you'd still be loving me.
If not for my careless heart.you'd still be mine.
I wouldn't have this hurt inside.i wouldn't have this tears to cry.
If not for my careless heart.if not for my careless heart.
I had my chances,i took advantage.i took it all too far.
So now you're gone, and i'm all alone,alone with my lonely heart.
I let it fall apart,i didn't care enough.i lost your precious love.
You'd be here,still be here in my arms.
If not for my careless heart.you'd still be loving me.
If not for my careless heart.you'd still be mine.
I wouldn't have this hurt inside.i wouldn't have this tears to cry.
If not for my careless heart.if not for my careless heart.
You'd still be mine.
I'd be loving you, i'd be holding you,i'd be loving you.
If not for my careless heart.
I wouldn't have this hurt inside.i wouldn't have this tears to cry.
If not for my careless heart.if not for my careless heart.
If not for my careless heart.you'd still be loving me.
If not for my careless heart.you'd still be mine.
I wouldn't have this hurt inside.i wouldn't have this tears to cry.
If not for my careless heart.if not for my careless heart.
If not for my careless heart.you'd still be loving me.
You'd be loving me.you'd still be mine.
I wouldn't have this hurt inside
I wouldn't have these tears to cry....

Colors Of Life
See the colors of life
The colors of dreams
The colors of life
Wherever you go
Wherever you may go
Trust in hope, trust in your real friends
Planet colors alive, you hold it in your hands
Realize you have to open your eyes
And Ive learned everything has always two sides
You're not alone
The world is one family
You're not alone
Find your way to be free
You're not alone
Love is the hope to survive
You're not alone
See the colors of life
See the colors of life

See the colors of dreams
They are wild and free
See the colors around

See the colors of life
See the colors of life

Tolerance is the key to make a better start
I've been waiting for my lessons of life
And I've learned everything has always two sides

Im Free
I was stranded in the dark
Trying to find an open door
So alone
Chains were wrapped around my heart
Didnt know what love was for
No more
Heard these voices in my head
Telling me youll never escape
No you cant get away
When the spirit in me said
Your love could show me the way
My whole life changed on that day
Now Im walking in the light
All aglow
All I see is sunshine in my eyes
Skies of blue, its true
Im free
Out from under shadows
The only thing that matters
Is that youve worked a miracle in me
Im free
Now when clouds surround me
They have no place around me
All because your love has set me free
Im free
From the time that I knew
That I could find love in you
My hearts been renewed
Now all my dreams are coming true
Im free
I was frightened in the cold
Desperate when you found me in time
You saved me from the world
Got my life back in control
Chased away the madness in my mind
You saved me right in time
Now my futures looking up
Skies of blue, all because of you
Got the sunshine in my life
All aglow, baby, dont you know
Im free
Out from under shadows
The only thing that matters
Is that youve worked a miracle in me
Im free
Now when clouds surround me
They have no place around me
All because your love has set me free
Im free
From the time that I knew
That I could find love in you
My hearts been renewed
Now all my dreams are coming true
Im free
Im free
Out from under shadows
The only thing that matters
Is that youve worked a miracle in me
Im free
Now when clouds surround me
They have no place around me
All because your love has set me free
Im free
