Your Prisoner For Life
What does this life have in store for me
Is it to be only loneliness, not loved but not free
Am I ever to feel a warm touch or thought
Life without love seems to be the ticket I bought
My very soul screams out in pain, but silently to you
You don't see the remnants of a heart, you don't have a clue
You don't see the nights, I silently cry myself to sleep
I'll continue to love alone, I'm in too deep
I've finally given up, married to a stranger i don't know
But we will continue to be married and put on this show
This show of this love, you have me for life
You will always have my love, as your wife
I'll take the crumbs where they may fall
This is our life, forever yours at your call!

I Want To Know What Love Is
I gotta take a little time
A little time to think things over
I better read between the lines
In case I need it when Im older
Now this mountain I must climb
Feels like a world upon my shoulders
I through the clouds I see love shine
It keeps me warm as life grows colder
In my life theres been heartache and pain
I dont know if I can face it again
Cant stop now, Ive traveled so far
To change this lonely life
I wanna know what love is
I want you to show me
I wanna feel what love is
I know you can show me
Im gonna take a little time
A little time to look around me
Ive got nowhere left to hide
It looks like love has finally found me
In my life theres been heartache and pain
I dont know if I can face it again
I cant stop now, Ive traveled so far
To change this lonely life
I wanna know what love is
I want you to show me

And I wanna feel, I want to feel what love is
And I know, I know you can show me
Lets talk about love
I wanna know what love is, the love that you feel inside
I want you to show me, and Im feeling so much love
I wanna feel what love is, no, you just cannot hide
I know you can show me, yeah
I wanna know what love is, lets talk about love
I want you to show me, I wanna feel it too
I wanna feel what love is, I want to feel it too
And I know and I know, I know you can show me
Show me love is real, yeah

A Lonely Wife
A lonely Wife
Nice words said, sweet words spoken
Such a deep feeling love, or words just a token
She's comfortable with him, he's so good to her
She thinks it's love, a companion for life
She thought love would last, when he made her his wife
She has the whole world at her feet, she has nothing to fear anymore
No one screaming at her, no one beating her or knocking her to the floor
This must be the way love is meant to be
This is what marriage is like, she is finally free
Why does she find herself so sad and lonely
He loves her, she pledged her life to him only
What's wrong with her, she has everything
His loving her without showing it doesn't mean anything
She will continue life forever, as it stands
She has it so good now, living her life in his hands
She will never speak up about how she feels
With his kindness and love, she still heals

Never Fall in Love
I believe in love
but never fall in love
true love or lust love
I want love
but never fall in love
am I so cold
and don't have a heart
or so stubborn
and raise wall stone
I search love
but never fall in love
platonic love or passionate love
I'm loved
but never fall in love
am I afraid
to be hurt by the one
or kill it silently
before I find it's gone
I get everything
but never fall in love
I want to love
and wait all my life
should I pick one flower
and pretend it's love
pseudo love, unrequited love or mutual love
so desperate to feel
but never fall in love

Try It (I'm In Love With A Married Man)
I think of you each day
I think of you at night
Do you think about me, darling,
when you make love to your wife?
The world won't understand
my affair with a married man
(Try it, try it, try my love)
Try my love
(Why won't you try it, try it)
I'm in love with a married man
Do you think of us on weekends
when you're with your family
Are you lonely when you're with her
and do you ever long for me?
As I get down on my knees
As I cry myself to sleep
(Try it, try it, try my love)
Try my love
(Why won't you try it, try it)
I'm in love with a married man
Oh lord, the risk is me
I've done for you what I can
I'm in love with a married man
(Try it, try it, try my love)
Try my love
(Why won't you try it, try it)
I'm in love with a married man

Show me a mountain so high
I'll show you love that'll last forever
Flying high so high
Show me a place where dream are for dreamers
And all the things you wish come true
I'd wish the world had all happy people
The there'd be no more wishing to do
Oh sweet love
Oh well well sweet sweet love
Oh woo hoo sweet love
Sweet love that comes through the age
Reach out and touch my soul
Give my life so much meaning
And everyone a heart of gold
Oh sweet love

I know you're searching for love and peace and understanding
And I know it's been hard trying to find your way.
But you've got to keep on searching harder day by day
Cos this love, love the only way
Oh sweet love
Oh love sweet sweet love
Oh woo hoo sweet love
When you're down and out and you can't see your way
Just call on love

The Walls Of Your Castles Are Sure To Crumble And Fall
When one falls in love it can feel like walking on air
You feel you can overcome anything in your way
You feel that there’s nothing in life that can bring you down
Your depression and loneliness seem to disappear
The walls of your castles are sure to crumble and fall
The same walls you have built to keep your broken heart safe
From the possibility of feeling pain again
You will once again feel free to be happy in life
You no longer feel guilty deep within your freed soul
One feels that at last they have found true meaning in life
Finally mundane feelings become fewer between
They don’t matter they are trivial feelings for one
‘Tis real and you can feel it deep inside your core’s soul
Then you and your love will truly be known as a pair

Nothing To Show
Nothing to show beyond the fear I had
Body so warm within his perfumed bed
Sleeping alone, the shadow of a man
He will entice you too, and if he can
Nothing to show for love has never been
Nothing to show for love has never been
Nothing to show for love has never been
Nothing is handed, power is changing fast
Many the empty hopes his lips caress
Sorry to say his days are spent in vain
Chasing a dream of doom of nights in pain
Nothing to show for love has never been
Nothing to show for love has never been
Nothing to show for love has never been
Shadowy nights of memories of the grave
Gentle my love and sweetness sometimes sick
Keep up his time while his crimes are known
Only a fool can see he's sold his love
Nothing to show for love has never been
Nothing to show for love has never been
Nothing to show for love has never been
Nothing to show for love has never been
Nothing to show for love has never been
Nothing to show for love has never been

I Cannot Sleep
Let me be your wife if,
You are not married;
Let me be one of your wives if,
You are married;
I have your muse all over me and,
I cannot sleep.
My dreams are full of your image,
My mind is always on you;
Let me be closer to you my dream lover.
I have everything and i need your love to crown it,
I am lost in a place and all that i need is you;
Let me be your wife if you are not married.
I have all that one needs in life but,
Your love is what i do lack;
So let me be one of your wives if,
You are already married.
I need you and, i will care more for you;
I am lost in place and,
Your love is all that i need to find my way home.

I love the way...
I miss your voice, when you would call me,
I loved the way my body could melt into yours,
I loved the way you kissed me when I was sad,
I love the way that you always know when I'm sad or mad,
I love the way you would touch me and make me feel as though the world would never fall apart, that I would be alright as long as you were by my side.
Baby, I can do anything with your love, be anything I wanted to be.
I love the way I trust you with my life, my secrets, and past.
I love the way you comfort me when I'm down; in such an understanding way.
Your everything to me!
I will always remember...
The way I love you,
The way you love me,
And the way I trust you.
I love you, babe!
Forever in my heart and soul!

She Believes In Love Again
I want her I need her
But I never let her know before
Kept her in the dark
Thought I lost her heart forever
She told me just show me
The feelings that you keep inside
And I promise that
We can put it back together
She believes in love again
She belives in me
Now weve gone far beyond
The way we used to be
And in her eyes from deep inside
She finally let me see
She believes in love again
She belives in me
I woke up I spoke up
And let her know the way I feel
Changes I could make
Wouldnt have to take a lifetime
She wants me she needs me
She always let me know before
And now its up to me
To give her all the things she needs the right way
She believes in love again
She belives in me
Now weve gone far beyond
The way we used to be
And in her eyes from deep inside
She finally let me see
She believes in love again
She belives in me
I just nearly blew it
How could I do it
I think about the pain I had put her through
God Im sorry
She said shed recover
If only Id love her
Shed open up her soul
And share her life with me
She believes in love again
She belives in me
Now weve gone far beyond
The way we used to be
And in her eyes from deep inside
She finally let me see
She believes in love again
She believes in me
In her eyes from deep inside
She finally let me see that
She believes in love again
She believes in me

Love Of My Life
Love of my life
Take my heart take my soul
Take what you need
Love of my life
Dont you know Im just a fool for a good womans greed
You broke the wings of a weary vagabond
And Im stranded on the island of your love
You are the fruit of my amazon
Love of my life Im no good on my own
Love of my nights
Take my pride take my flesh
Take all my blues
Love of my life
Dont you know my lifes a bore
When theres nothing to lose
I am the prisoner of your paradise
Sunken in the bayou of your love
I make this sensual sacrifice
Love of my life
For the good of my own
Love of my life
Im no good on my own
Love of my life
Take my heart take my soul
Take what you feel
Love of my life
Dont you know Im just a man
For a woman whos real
Love of my life ....
Love of my life ....
Love of my life ....

‘i Do’
Today I’m saying to the girl I’m marrying ‘I do’,
but you know that I’d rather be saying it to you.
I’ve known and loved you practically all of my life,
but soon I’m making someone else my wife.
We promised each other that we would wed one day,
but the opportunities in life never came my way.
You didn’t want to live a life of struggle and pain
and I couldn’t provide your dream of fortune and fame.
You married an older man that you don’t even love,
but has that given you what you were dreaming of?
It seems your eyes are saying that you still love me
and yet you chose unhappiness for the sake of security.
Are you here to tell me that you’re ready to change your life
by divorcing your husband and becoming my wife?
If you can’t follow your heart there’s nothing more to say,
except that my wedding is only two hours away.

Married Men
(bugatti - musker)
Producers for bonnie: ronnie scott, steve wolfe
Bonnie recorded this song in 1979 for the film the world is full of married men. the lyrics are taken from the japanese single.
The world is full of married men
With wives who never understand
Theyre looking for someone to share
The excitement of a love affair
Just as soon as they find you
They wine you and dine you
You fly on the wings of romance
But in the eyes of the world
Youre just another crazy girl
Who loves a married man
Oh your love is a secret
And youve got to keep it
As long as you can
No dont cry for your lover
Theres always another married man
The world is full of married men
Oh yeah you make him feel so young
But his wife will still be number one
He promises to marry you
Just as soon as his divorce
Comes through
And its not just a fling
He swears its the real thing
A love that could last till the end
As hes driving away
You know its true what they say
About married men
They do it, they do it, they do it
They do it again and again
They do it, they do it, they do it
They do it, married men
Oh hell run when the scandal
Gets too hot to handle
Hell say I just want to be friends
They hell walk out of your life
Hell go home to his wife
cause hes a married man
Oh your love is a secret
And youve got to keep it
As long as you can
No dont cry for your lover
Theres always another married man
The world is full of married men
They do it, they do it, they do it
They do it again and again
They do it, they do it, they do it
They do it, married men
Hell walk out of your life
And go home to his wife
A married man
Dont cry for your lover
Theres always another married man
They do it, they do it, they do it
They do it again and again
They do it, they do it, they do it
They do it, married men....repeat and fade

The Unborne Soldier
Walking silently to the river of thought
carrying a mystic child
The expecting mother
Swaggers with intense confusion
Who will my son be?
Who will he love?
Who will love him?
Love him like I do
Will he be healthy?
Will he be smart?
Will he allow me
Access into his heart?
A mothers touch is
what I'll give him
But does he want it?
Will he even feel it?
Can I warm him on
A cold winter's night
Will he hear me
When I call to him?
Will he see me
when I show him?
My son, the one I
Hold in my womb
My son whose
Father's been doomed
My son pathaetes
For whom I love
My son pathaetes
What holds for him?

Our Love
(phillip damien)
Our love I could never live without it
Our love call my name and Ill be there
Our love no one here could ever doubt it
Our love your heart our love
Time has said that when were together
There wont be a never to keep us apart
I believe this love will grow stronger
Our days will grow longer
Your loves in my heart
There were times when I thought that we would never be
Two hearts that beat as one
Now I know that its real
The way that I feel
And baby I want to say that you make my life a joy
Our love I could never live without it
Our love call my name and Ill be there
Our love no one here could ever doubt it
Our love your heart our love
Now I know that well be together
Forever and ever till the end of time
Heres a love that burns like a fire
Yet filled with desire
And sweeter than wine
Could it be that we are living in a fantasy
Some say it cant be true
Now I just cant conceal
All this passion the thrill
Come let me show me that I love you
Its true I do
Our love I could never live without it
Our love call my name and Ill be there
Our love no one here could ever doubt it
Our love your heart our love
My love and your love
I said together not without it
Not anyone could ever doubt it
Said our love together forever and ever
In love the sky I fly above
And I cant fly without our love

My Opinion
What is happiness?
What is loneliness?
What is love?
The questions I asked above
we ask ourselves & others often
up to the end, up the coffin.
I will tell you my opinion,
it is not the only one out of million.
That one is lonely who doesn’t love.
He walks his life on a slough.
People are like flowers
which bloom at a certain hour.
When the time comes
they show their charms.
A good gardener with patience
waits appearing the fragrance.
The one who loves
let aroma out of his heart.
His love is a beautiful art.
That one doesn’t know loneliness,
that one knows only happiness.
His heart belongs to others,
he worries about the loved ones,
he suffers together with them,
but behaves like a lamb
when they are joyful.
His life becomes eventful,
he has no time to be lonely,
he loves truly & sincerely,
he has no time for pondering,
he knows well what’s happening,
he forgets about himself,
his love he gives to others itself.
You can tell me:
But it is only half!
I will not laugh but tell:
Everyone wants to be loved as well.
When your thoughts & heart are in harmony,
when they just live in one company,
when they play one role
it’s already a whole.
The one who loves sincerely
can never be lonely,
he never asks for love in return,
that one only tries to learn
how they are and pray.
If you ask who loves more
meaning the one you adore,
if you don’t show your feelings,
if you don’t feel your heart beatings,
if all the time you measure and weigh
there is nothing more to say.
Love was not born yet
and I could only regret.
Around you is emptiness & coldness,
as a result you get your loneliness.
Why? ‘Cause other people feel it,
they try to escape it.
Don’t worry about mutual love!
Be in a hurry and let your heart free.
Like apples on a tree
your love has to grow,
your heart has to show
your kindness, your tenderness.
Show everyone that you are selfless,
then a miracle will happen.
You’ll get love in return.
Real love will be born.
Now you know what happiness is,
You never know loneliness as it is.

To My Love…
You make me feel Special
Every day of my life
You love me the way
I’ve never been loved before
GOD gave You to Me
to discover what Love is
Being with you I’ve fathomed
the true meaning of Love
Your eyes have magic
and so does your touch…
It melts me down
whenever I feel you
Forever giving and Forgiving
A Heart of Gold
is what you have
Blessed I am to be your wife
Would cherishingly love you

Throughout My Youth
I will love you throughout my youth
And through the time that I am old and gray
I will love you and only you,
And that will be my words on my dying day.
You are all that I have ever loved
You are all that I held and kissed as I think,
And if I could live this life with only you,
I would live it in a moments wink.
I will love you throughout my life
From everyday that I think I look or I say,
Without you I would not want to live,
I love you more and more everyday.
You are the beat that beats in my heart
You are the smile that lights my brain
You are the rainbow in my soul and heart
You show me the sun when my soul wants to rain.
I will love you forever
And when I have gone and parted your side
Then up in heaven I will be so sad
I will be crying as though forever with no tears to hide.
I love you more than you could ever feel
I need you more than you could ever know
Inside my soul and body there's only been you
My love for you has been deeply sewed.

Love Alone
When she calls my name
Nobody says it quite the same
Gives me a feeling I never knew
Makes me so happy loving her.
Love and love alone
Id wait a life just to have it here.
Love is all I know and that cant be wrong.
Its sometimes hard to see
Love isnt bought well its got to be
There for a reason you want to share
To show somebody you care.
Love and love alone
Conquers the world that can be so cold.
Love is how we show just what we feel.
Its enough for me cant say I need anything else.
Love is here to be had by us all
Dont cheat yourself.
I can say it now
Someday well all be there somehow
Everyone singing, love leads the way
til then Im counting every day.
Love and love alone
Id wait a life just to have it here.
Love is all I know and that cant be wrong.

Love is given,
Never robbed or stole,

Cant be bought or sold.

Love is living,

Love is never stopping,
Love is always beginning.
Love is you and I,
Us forever living as one,
Knowing that it cannot be stopped,
And though GODS grace; will continue on.
