I Am Away
I am away for a short while,
But i will be back again for your love;
Because i do have total commitment on this love.

Lifes Too Short To Love Like That
(sandy ramos)
Baby we had something goin wrong
Ive never seen nothin so right go wrong
You used to wanna love me day and night
We used to never wanna leave paradise
Now we sleep at night back to back
Lifes too short to love like that
You never wanna kiss me anymore
You run around and I walk the floor
You know I used to mean everyting to you
Not Im last in line and that just wont do
I feel blue, you feel trapped
Lifes too short to love like that
You put me down just to stand me up
Time after time, well enoughs enough
I give and give without gettin back
Lifes too short to love like that
Lifes too short to love like that
Its way too late for a wake-up call
And I aint gonna wait for those tears to fall
I used to think we could work things out
But if you dont wanna change then theres no doubt
The fire is out and thats so sad
Lifes too short to love like that
You put me down just to stand me up
Time after time, well enoughs enough
I give and give without gettin back
Lifes too short to love like that
Lifes too short to love like that

Marriage: Stages to be fololwed
First, marriage should be love
all encompassing, total, and free.
Love that grows stronger each day
soft murmurs of Thee, Thee, Thee.
Second, marriage should be sacrifice
giving of self, regardless of reward.
Gift gladly given, with open heart
shielded from life's harsh sword.
Third, marriage should be commitment
utter loyalty, deep to the bone.
Absolutely, no questions asked
faithfully promised, never alone.
Lastly, marriage should be forever
family bonded, yet all still free.
Lives joined with love, sacrifice, and commitment
an eternity promised with -
Thee, Thee, Thee

Love Is So Short
Love is so short and forgetting is so long
It’s hard to forget the one to whom you belong
You are no longer an us but a you
You are now a one, not a two.
Love is so short but memories last forever
Remembering the promise of being together forever
Tears cannot bring your loved one back
For they will only subside until you crack.
Love is so short but feelings will remain
Nothing can be done to ease your heart’s pain
You yearn for one more hug or a perfect last kiss,
For it is something that you truly miss.
Love is so short and moving on is so hard
A love so deep leaves you forever scarred
A wish for holding your lover one more day
Anything you can do to take the pain away.
Love is so short but crying never stops
Nothing seems worthwhile when the penny finally drops
You gave your soul to them, you’re entire heart
You never thought, for just one day you’d be apart.
Love is so short and living you can’t bear
Because all you want is for them to be there
They say things are meant to happen a certain way
But why did god take my lover away.

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.

What's LOVE?
Love hurts
But it should never strike
Love can be lovely
But should never tell you what to do
Love should listen
Not ignore your feelings
Love should be there all the time
Not only when love wants
Love should be special
Not a trip to the hospital
Love is a commitment
Not a call once a month
Love should be happy
No tears should flow
Love should be forever
Not a broken heart
Love is what love wants
But your the only one that controls the love
So whats love?

Your heart talk’s to me
I forget myself
When I am with you
Drowned Deep
In the world of love
I can only feel
Your love for me
My eyes close
My mind in total peace
I hear no voices
Nothing disturbs me
In total silence
Your heart talk’s to me
Every word I understand
Love, love and only love
Your heart says to me

Life's Too Short
I let you escape, slip through my fingers
We made our mistakes, but memories linger
Each time I turn a corner I swear I see your face
But I'm standing here alone in the wonder
What I really needed, what made me run away?
Was it just somebody's spell I was under
(Chorus)
We all love on borrowed time, tomorrow's flying blind
And life's too short to be living without you
You laughed at my jokes, broke down my defenses
It's like my heart just awoke, and brought back my senses
I've got my motor running, it's all that I can do
Cause every road I'm taking, is leading back to you
Repeat Chorus
We all love on borrowed time, tomorrow's flying blind
And life's too short to be living without you
And life's too short
And life's too short
I give in I can't go it alone, yeah I'm done now I know that you're gone
I need someone to save me and life's too short, too short
I give in I can't go it alone
Life's too short to be living without you
Life's too short
I give in I can't go it alone
Life's too short can't be living without you
Life's too short
I give in I can't go it alone
I can live without you
Life's too short
I give in I can't go it alone
Life's too short to be living without you

Once a man has made a commitment to a way of life, he puts the greatest strength in the world behind him. It's something we call heart power. Once a man has made his commitment, nothing will stop him short of success.

What Is Love To You?

Prayer is commitment. We don't merely co-operate with God with certain things held back within. We, the total person, co-operate. This means that co-operation equals committment.

Love Making
What do we think of love making?
Does that not need complete backing?
Pure understanding with total commitment
In fact a holy and sincere moment
Does it need show of gesture?
Are they confident or very sure?
That they may blossom in desert
No certificated need from an expert
It is self controlled origination
With no ill feeling or bad intention
It can be ordinary individual’s safe heaven
A place to live in without asking even
Under open sky few exchanges of words
Commitment to go ahead and look forward
Shape the destiny and mould the way
Staying together till the end and not going away
Not all people may be lucky
The situation can become so sticky
It might prove sometimes very difficult
But love has distinction of its own with fine cult
Let no hurdle be created in their cruise
It is their wish and choice
Let us wish all the best in their new resolve
Let them stand together, look forward and solve
It is natural process and must be respected
At least once we must remain non- reacted
It comes as once in life time chance
It must be honored and strengthened at once

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.

I am Carioca! !
I come from my Rio de Janeiro
where all loves are possible
I do not know if by sea or mountains
or if the carioca way of loving
There is a freedom in our soul
for love, for dance
touched by the immense beauty
that surrounds us all
we love, black and white
rich and poor
in our sands all are equals
pulled by 'S', talk nonsense
but we are happy
Cariocas we are
For everything we give a way
And love Carioca is different
to love any other
is wind and soft sand under your feet
is sea green, crystalline, huge waves
is the cold beer in the afternoon, the breakfast
always in the same bakery
It's beauty that blind us
it hurts of longing,
like lost love
but it always comes back
distance is short
between you and total love
my homeland, my sonnet
the good mood, entire joy
Good Morning my Rio de Janeiro!

Nosedive
You wonder why our firm relations took a nosedive
I guess, you should go back to the primal roots
Considering our liaison was long ago still alive
Maybe it was my grievous fault to lick your boots
Total submission can lead to getting into a habit
And afterwords love fades away without any traces
Who knows when it's time to murder love or stop it?
You keep on looking for the one among unknown faces
If life is too short, then love may last much shorter
The haunting memories survive for distant ages
The ruthless time is gonna blow us out of the water
Yet the history has a room for blank and wilted pages

Show Tune II
That's the long and short of it
now you know
how I've been waiting all these years
where I'm coming from
that's the long and short of it.
That's the long and short of it
now you see
just how hot hot jazz was
how it turned about, my bookcase
that's the long and short of it.
That's the long and short of it
now you know
that my arrest record's
not my best record
that's the long and short of it.
That's the long and short of it
now you see
how the Past's like a love
you can neither leave nor live
that's the long and short of it
That's the long and short of it
now you know
it was no gun in my pocket
it was a rocket
that's the long and short of it.
That's the long and short of it
and you're wond'ring dear
how I kept so pure
hull, it was easy
that's the long and short of it.
That's the long and short of it
now you see
so bounce your head
into bed
that's the long and short of it.
That's the long and short of it
read the blues
in these tattoos
make a song of it
that's the short and long of it.
How I wish
there was a bridge-
then I could burn it;
or the train
of a refrain
then I could board it
but there isn't
no there isn't, so...

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

God's Promise
What we promise means everything to the ones we love
Or to anyone who trust what we do and say.
As we strive to fulfill our every commitment;
For integrity and divine purpose we pray.
Marriage, faith, love, happiness and God's grace
Depend on total surrender of heart and soul.
To become more like Christ and God our Father
Should be our focus, purpose and goal.
God keeps His every prophecy and promise
As we depend on His divine intervention from above.
No matter how we blunder, or fall short of His glory,
We trust our Shepherd for forgiveness, grace and love.

She Don't Love Me
I love her but she don’t love me
She thinks she love another man
And he’s no good you understand
I love her but she don’t love me
Running round drinking every night
He’ll never treat my baby right
I love her but she don’t love me
She don’t know the things he does
She don’t know the women he loves
I love her but she don’t love me
How long before she quits the chase
Seeing chasing that man is a total waste
I love her but she don’t love me
He’s not the kind to settle down
Breaking hearts all over town
I love her but she don’t love me
I tell her every chance I get
She’s not ready to accept that yet
I love her but she don’t love me
I’m going to get me that girl
Show her that she is my world
I love her but she don’t love me
Can’t anyone love her as I do
If you knew her you’d love her to
I love her she don’t love me
I have loved her for many years
She caused me to shed many tears
I love her she don’t love me
Thinking of her my heart bleeds
I’m always there anytime she needs
I love her but she don’t love me
I’ll live in misery on my own
If I can’t have her I’ll die alone

One Sided
Is it not one sided?
When not put forward or confided?
How can that be stolen?
When not a word of love is spoken
No one may ever disregard
If that is done with total regard
It is never tore apart
When you are inseparable part
What can be known stand?
Better understanding to befriend
Vow to stand for each other
Hand and hand and completely care
It may serve no purpose
If only you suppose
Offer daily rose
And think you have chosen
Any change is welcome and good
If not deceived and well understood
As love demands for supreme sacrifice
Dedication and commitment with full of promises
