Knight In Shining Armor
Where is my knight in shining armor?
Will he come to rescue me?
I've been pierced and wounded.
The scars you cannot see.
All of them are in my mind.
that surface every day.
They're frightening and they hurt so.
They just won't go away.
A white horse and pointed lance
and rider of strong heart
is what I need to free me
so my hurts can all depart.
Are you real? Do you exist
or are you the hero that didn't last?
Can you rescue this damsel
like you did the ones from the past?
I dream about you in the night.
You take my fears away.
I awaken in the morning light
and must face another day
of verbal abuse which tortures me
and I search in vain for you.
Where is my knight in shining armor?
He's nowhere in my view.

Not A Fairytale
You think my life's a fairy tale
As happy as can be
Knight in shining armor
Saves the damsel in distress
Dragon slain
If this is a fairy tale
My life is far from it
You're no knight in shining armor
The damsel can take care of herself
And there are more dragons than you realize
In forms of a stepdad, homelife, even you
Bet thats not what you were expecting
In this 'fairy tale'
The only way to save me
Is to slain ALL the dragons
But let me guess
You would never slain yourself
So much for a happy ending

Rescue Me! ! !
They hurt me,
Once again I pretend that each slap,
Didn’t hurt more the last.
But with the verbal abuse as well,
Tears began to fall from,
My heartbroken eyes.
Please Come Rescue Me! ! !
My heart feels like it’s on fire,
As well as my skull.
Held hostage, beaten when I am bad.
I am the ultimate,
Silent Slave.
Please Come Rescue Me! ! !
Take a plane, take a bus, just get here quick!
Cause I am fading fast.
I don’t care how, but come, take my hand and,
Look into my eyes.
Come, tell me that You Don’t Hate Me!
Because I Don’t Hate You and,
I need you now more then ever!
So Please Come Rescue Me! ! !

I Know How To Love You Well
Its been a long time
Since we walked that aisle together
And you became my wife
And who wouldve thought
You would fall for someone just like me
For the best days of my life
I may not be a poet
Cause I aint so good on words
I may not stand before you
Like a knight in shining armor
I may not be the best of singers
Theres better guys Ive heard
But I know how to love
I know how to love you well
You got your faults
And I dont need to tell you Ive got mine
Well I guess they all even out
Wherever I ride
The thought of you turns water into wine
And somehow I lose a crowd
I may not drive a fancy car
I dont know what its for
I may not be the one
Who gets to shower you in diamonds
I may not be a rich man
But you cant call me poor
Cause I know how to love
I know how to love you well
As we skip the light fandango
From that old jukebox by the bar
Now honey, dont it make you wonder
How we ever got this far
I may not be a poet
Cause I aint got much to say
I may not stand before you
Like that knight in shining armor
I may not be the best of singers
Honey thats ok
Cause I know how to love
I know how to love
I know how to love
You well

Men, we don't need you to be a knight in shining armor. We just need you to be a little bit brave, just a little bit. And some of them are, and that's what he does.

New Heaven
Paradise now has many a Knight,
Many a lordkin, many lords,
Glimmer of armor, dinted and bright,
The young Knights have put on new swords.
Some have barely down on the lip,
Smiling yet from the new-won spurs,
Their wounds are rubies, glowing and deep,
Their scars amethyst-glorious scars.
Michael’s army hath many new men,
Gravest Knights that may sit in stall
Kings and Captains, a shining train,
But the little young Knights are dearest of all.
Paradise now is the soldiers land
Their own country its shining sod,
Comrades all in a merry band;
And the young Knights’ Laughter pleaseth God.

Hors-d’oeuvre
Long ago and far away
lived a knight not so bold
and he often considered
how he would rescue a damsel in distress.
Not being bold or handsome to
the knight wondered what he should do.
Then came a day
when his lady fair was kidnapped
and the knight was perplexed
at what he should do.
Mounting his steed he galloped
to the castle where she was held.
The walls of the castle
seem to stretch to the sky.
How was he to save her
and rescue her virtue from these wicked men?
He could not scale this fortress
and breech its stone walls,
From within the walls he heard
groans and wails ring out.
The thoughts of them
stealing her virtue
made his voice ring out.
“Open the gates and let me in.”
The gates duly opened
and the knight with sword in hand
quickly rode his steed in.
There was his lady fair
being ravished by several men.
“Leave ye lady fair alone.”
The knight was taken back
as his lady fair’s voice
echoed in his ears.
“Be gone you silly knight,
can’t you see this lady
wants to have some fun.”

I've always supported myself. I like the sense of knowing exactly where I stand financially, but there is a side of me that longs for a knight in shining armor.

I Am Your Don Quixote
I am your Don Quixote
But there is no armor for this heart
No protection from your eyes
There is no armor for this heart
Vulnerable I battle with your smile
There is no armor for this heart
From your beauty I cannot hide
There is no armor for this heart
Exposed I am tangled in only lies
There is no armor for this heart
Empty as every windmill that I find
There is no armor for this heart
I lay awake with open eyes

No Knight Am I
With any giving of reason,
Just to get to see you pleased.
There are some strict restrictions,
I must uphold to leave.
No knight am I,
To wear any armor.
Or will I sustain,
Dramatized headaches to cause me pain.
I want to be here,
To just be with you.
With a promise not to leave,
When your tears fall like the pouring rain.
I...
Am real!
And not...
A fantasy.
I...
Believe,
We can be happy.
If together you want to be with me.
No knight am I,
To wear any armor.
Or will I sustain,
Dramatized headaches to cause me pain.
I want to be here,
To just be with you.
With a promise not to leave,
When your tears fall like the pouring rain.
I...
Am real!
And not...
A fantasy.
I...
Believe,
We can be happy.
If together you want to be with me.
But...
With any giving of reason,
Just to get to see you pleased.
There are some strict restrictions,
I must uphold to leave.
Because I...
Am real!
And not...
A fantasy.
And I...
Believe,
We can be happy.
If together you want to be with me.
I...
Am real,
And not a fantasy.
No knight am I in armor.
To gallop in your dreams.
I am someone real.
Who loves you as it seems.
No knight am I in armor.
To gallop in your dreams.
I am someone real.
Who loves you as it seems.
And I...
Believe,
We can be happy.
If together you want to be with me.
If together you want to be with me.
If together you want to be with me.
If together you want to be with me.

The Magic Is Working
Chorus:
The magic is working, Im falling in love
The magic is working, Im falling in love
The magic is working, Im falling in love
You were sent from heaven above
All of my life
I hoped to find someone like you
So sweet and so kind
Never thought Id love again
Thought my life had come to an end
And out of the blue
There you were filling my heart
You captured me and
Stood there like a knight in shining armor
You changed my life (you changed my life)
Youre such a charmer
Repeat chorus
(you must have stepped out of magic)
Stepped right of out of my dream
Shoot through my life with everything
Never have I felt so strong desire
When Im with you, I can feel the fire
Ive never been in love like this
Fireworks in every kiss
Feels so good, I feel alive
My heart and soul, have been revived
Repeat chorus
You stood like a knight in shining armor
You changed my life
You changed my life
Youre such a charmer
(I want you to know)
Repeat chorus
The magic is working, baby
I feel so good about your lovin, baby
I feel so good about your lovin, baby
I feel so good about your lovin, baby

So come closer and make me feel so high on this love,
For i need to rewind my mind always with you on this love.

Chained
R.sambora
Hey, whats this feeling
Ive never been down this far before
I was scared of believing
That love would never find my door
I was chained
Chained
Chained to my broken dreams
I never knew I was supposed to be
Waiting for someone to come and rescue me
Rescue me
Rescue me.
Hey am I dreaming?
I never woke up from night before
Unaware I was bleeding
Slowly dying like the sun
Going down once more.
I was chained
Chained
Chained to my broken dreams
I never knew just where my life would lead
Hoping that someone would come and rescue me
Rescue me
Rescue me
Rescue me.
Alone in the darkness
til saw the light
Shining from your eyes
Now it burns inside and it keeps me alive
Lord Ive been chained
Ive been chained, yeah.
Was chained
Chained
Chained to these broken dreams
I never knew who supposed to be
Hoping that someone would come and rescue me
Ive been chained
Chained
Ive been chained to these broken dreams
I never knew just where my life would lead
Waiting for you to come and rescue me
Hoping that someone would come and
Rescue me
Rescue me
Rescue me
Ooh yeah
Rescue me

Do I Have To Say The Words?
Rescue me from the mire
Whisper words of desire
Rescue me - darling rescue me
With your arms open wide
Want you here by my side
Come to me - darling rescue me
When this world's closing in
There's no need to pretend
Set me free - darling rescue me
I don't wanna let you go
So I'm standing in your way
I never needed anyone like I'm needing you today
Do I have to say the words?
Do I have to tell the truth?
Do I have to shout it out?
Do I have to say a prayer?
Must I prove to you how good we are together?
Do I have to say the words
Rescue me from despair
Tell me you will be there
Rescue me - darlin rescue me
Every dream that we share
Every cross that we bear
Come to me - darling rescue me

Its Crying Time
I was your girl
I was your baby
Remember
I was forever
For worse or for better
Faithfully
Told you my secrets
And all of my fears
You let me
Gave me your love
And said it was real
A fantasy
Pre chorus
Something so good
Should last forever
How could you lie
So carefully
Falling apart
Will I recover
Lying alone
I sit and wonder
For now
Chorus
Its crying time
Love is gone
I still need you
I gave you all my heart
You took the best
And threw the rest away
Shame on you boy
You should of known better
You didnt care
The joke is on me
But I am not laughing
Just sit and stare
Disguised
Like a knight in shining armor
An illusion
Playing a role
And now the shows over
Im broken

Emily
Now Emily hides in a way
she is waiting for a
knight in shining armor
and I know that nothing I'd say
could make her see me
as a man of honor
but I am
now sometimes I wish she could see through
all the rain and clouds that fill her sky
and know that tomorrow brings with wings
of bird a song to fill her mind
and I am
oh yes I am
[Chorus:]
the one who can sing
all of the dreams
the one who can make them all come true
if she would believe
I'm down on my knees
but in my hands I hold
Now Emily stands at the door
a picture lies in pieces on the floor
the one where we walked on the beach
the wind blew waves
that crashed upon the shore
oh we are
forever more
[Chorus:]
the one who can sing
all of our dreams
the one who can make them all come true
if she would believe
I'm down on my knees
but in my hands I hold
everything that she wants
everything that should be
as far as her
big blue eyes could see
if she would believe
I'm down on my knees
but in my hands I hold
what do you want me to do
my head in my hands
I wait for the words
to come and make you understand
so tell me I'm right
tell me I touched you down
so deep inside
Now Emily hides in a way
she is waiting for a
knight in shining armor
and I know that nothing I'd say
can make her see me
as a man of honor
[Chorus:]
I'm the one who can sing
all of our dreams
the one who can make them all come true
if she would believe
I'm down on my knees
but in my hands I hold
everything that she wants
everything that should be
as far as her
big blue eyes could see
if she would believe
I'm down on my knees
but in my hands I hold
in my hands I hold
the ring

Mouth
You gave me this
made me give
your silver grin
still sticking it in
you have soul machine
soul machine
the longest kiss
peeling furniture days
drift madly to you
pollute my heart drain
you have broken at me
broken me
all your mental armor drags me down
nothing hurts like your mouth
your loaded smiles
pretty just desserts
wish it all for you
so much it never hurts
you have soul machine
stone at me
all your mental armor drags me down
we can't breathe when you come around
all your mental armor drags me down
nothing hurts like your mouth mouth
mouth
your mouth mouth mouth
your mouth mouth mouth
we've been missing long before
never found our way home
we've been missing long before
where we'll find our way
you gave me this
made me give
you have soul machine
broken free
all your mental armor drags me down
we can't breathe when you come around
all your mental armor drags me down
nothing hurts like your mouth mouth
mouth
your mouth mouth mouth
your mouth mouth mouth
all your mental armor
all your mental armor
and your mouth

Dream Somehow
Come to the rescue now
Come to the rescue and stay for a little while
Come to the burning house
All of the ladybugs children are screaming fire
Come to the rescue now
Chorus
Tomorrow may change--tomorrow may change
Or it may never come
Tomorrow may change--tomorrow may change
But it may never come
Turn around--turn around--turn around--what do you see
Come to the rescue now
Come to the rescue before all our worlds collide
Life is a dream somehow
Life is speck of dust lodged in gods eye
Life is a dream somehow
Come to the rescue now
Come with a mission and come with a broken heart
Life is a dream somehow
Life is a dream and our lives are a world apart
Come to the rescue now
Chorus
Come to the rescue
Life is a dream somehow
Life is a nightmare and life is a bitter pill
(life is a dream somehow)
Life is a disneyland ride which is better still
Come to the rescue now
Life is a drowning pool
Life is a circus for fools just like you and me
Life is a mortal coil
Wrapped in cheap tin foil on a kitchen sink
Come to the rescue now
Chorus
Dreams somehow, come to the rescue now . . .

Bodysurfing
Waiting
For a knight in armor shining
For a dream to start growing
For Peace to stop hiding
For a wave to begin surfing
Ride it
Get lost in the moment
Believe in no tommorow
Stop worrying, no sorrow
Until you stop at the shore
Laughing
At the man who is smitten
At the dream flying
At the children playing
At the wave smashing
