The Mistress
Her face was delicate, and beautiful to know,
When touched by sunlight, or a candle's glow,
And weaving a dream around him, with cunning ease,
She knew by expertise, just how to please.
And he in turn, reached out and with delight,
Drew her close, and sensed that all was right,
So that leaving her tonight, would cause him pain
Within his heart, and that he must remain.
For to leave at all, no, this he could not do,
He looked at her again, and then he knew,
That she was his, forever and a day,
And that forever, he would have to pay!

She Said
In every corner of my memory
There's no place you wouldn't be
lf anything, I wish I had
Another dream with you
Life was forever yesterday
Nothing in the world could take
Your love away, will I ever know
That time will ease the pain
For me someday
She said I won't leave you, ever
Just love me forever
She said you can leave, but never
Walk away
Lights reflecting in the evening sun
Back to the place where we were one
Soul mates forever about to chase
Rainbows in the dark
Another day to destiny
Come on and set me free
When I close my eyes, I see your smile
As I walk in the pouring rain
I call your name
She said I won't leave you, ever
Just love me forever
She said, we will be together, someday
She said I won't leave you, ever
Just love me forever
She said, you can leave, but never
Walk away
I can see a million faces
When I take a walk outside
But I just never knew
That I could go a million places
And I'd see always, only you
The loneliness crawls up on me
Without you there's no me
At any time or any place
But time will ease the pain
For me someday
She said I won't leave you, ever
Just love me forever
She said, we will be together, someday
She said, I will wait forever
I won't leave you ever
She said, you can leave, but never
Ever walk away
Don't walk away
Oh no don't walk away
I'II be waiting, always
Until you'Il wake up from this dream
Someday

In You
Saw you in a picture
shining like the morning sun
that's when I just knew
girl, I had to make you mine
on down the line
Those eyes so bright
an Angel in disguise
like rays through a light
coming down from heaven above
beautiful as a morning dove
I knew you were the one
to heal this lonely heart
saw in you a special love
forever in you
my one and only cure
a love that never dies
knew it from the start
And though the miles keep us apart
days pass, you're never gone
for you, I'll keep holding on
til I'm there by your side
holding you in my arms at night
til we both subside
You touched me in a way
I never felt before
like colors of a rainbow
after an evening rain
you washed my pain away
now nothing here the same will remain
and I'll love you forever more

Forever In You Heart
You know
That I love you
In every way
You bring
So many magical wonders
To my day
How could I ever leave
One reason why
Cause darlin without you
I cannot breathe
Youre the best thing
In all my life
The only one
Who helps me through
So much pain and strife
Baby you know...
Chorus:
Youll always be in my heart
Well never have reaons
To ever part
When I look into yor eyes
All I see is you and i
Together, forever in your heart
Darlin yes

Youll always be mine
No matter where you are
Youre always at the front
Of my mind
Only for eternity
Youve touched my heart
With undying hope
With your love
My problems can cope
No one will ever take your place
When I close my eyes
I see me
Kissing your sweet face
Youre much more beautiful
Than heavens glowing embrace
Chorus
Youll alwyas be
Forever with me
Baby, just wait and see
Youre my dream come true
And all I can say
Is that I love you
All I can say

Every night and day
My dreams come true
Only when Im with you
Holding you near
Ill always be
With you, youll see
Forever, forever in your heart
Only always
Forever in your heart

Forever In Blue
When she walked into the room
I felt her move me
I saw her eyes
They went right through me
Just one look I was forever in blue
In a spell of her embrace
Just for a moment
I was the one, caught in the moment
I knew, yes, right then I knew
Two hearts, reach for each other
Once chance, shes like no other
Im lost, lost in the dream of you
cause its true oh
Im forever, forever in blue
In a fantasy of my anticipation
I knew there was no consolation
I knew, oh I knew
And on the night she told me that
She had another
I was broken by the truth
I discovered, I knew oh I knew
Two hearts, reach for each other
Once chance, shes like no other
Im lost, lost in the dream of you
cause its true oh
Im forever, forever in blue... in blue
Believe me girl, I tried not to call
But here I am once again, yes once again
Beside you, with my hands on the wall
Two hearts, reach for each other
Once chance, shes like no other
Im lost, lost in the dream of you
Those two hearts, reach for each other
Once chance, shes like no other
Im lost, lost in the dream of you
cause its true oh
Im forever, forever in blue

Forever
Bess:
Baby Im sad
I feel you inside every time
I breathe
When I kissed your mouth
You made me feel strong.
You were my life from that first kiss
I knew you better than I knew myself
But I thought we had forever, baby
Id always be the one you needed
Goodbyes came to fast
Precious moments last
You were the only one
The one who could have made it
Last forever
Houdini:
Baby I miss you too
I spent my life trying
To capture a dream
When I touched your face
I burned with desire
Though our souls are worlds apart
Youre living in my heart
Both:
But I thought we had forever, baby
Id always be the one you needed
Goodbyes came to fast
Precious moments last
You were the only one
The one who could have made it
Last forever
Interlude - scene: the escapes
Both:
But I thought we had forever, baby
Id always be the one you needed
Goodbyes came to fast
Precious moments last
You were the only one
The one who could have made it
Last forever
Bess:
My heart beats to the memory of you
Both:
Love is the only thing thats true
But I thought we had forever, baby
Id always be the one you needed
Goodbyes came to fast
Precious moments last
You were the only one
The one who could have made it
Last forever
Together we will make it last forever
Together we will make it last forever

Never Been
I've never been touched like this- I've never been
I've never been kissed like this- I've never been
I never knew it felt like this- I never knew
I never knew a love like this
Pardon me- excuse me- forgive me- I can't help it
But I see- the energy- 'tween you and me- and I'm selfish
Don't want no- other girls- calling you- never ever
Cause I want- us to stay- together- forever
I've never been touched like this- I've never been
I've never been kissed like this- I've never been
I never knew it felt like this- I never knew
I never knew a love like this
Believe me- when I say- there is no one- I mean none
That can do- the things you do- the things you did- and get done
And I believe- that I can feel- this way- for a reason
In all the ways- you make me feel- boy you keep- me breathing
I've never been touched like this- I've never been
I've never been kissed like this- I've never been
I never knew it felt like this- I never knew
I never knew a love like this
What you got- Them others don't- Cause you're the one I want
You make me hot- Them others don't- Cause baby you're the one I love
What you got- Them others don't- Cause you're the one I want
You make me hot- Them others don't- Cause baby you're the one I love
I've never been touched like this- I've never been
I've never been kissed like this- I've never been
I never knew it felt like this- I never knew
I never knew a love like this
I've never been touched like this- I've never been
I've never been kissed like this- I've never been
I never knew it felt like this- I never knew
I never knew a love like this

Tonight And Forever
(words and music by Joe Jackson)
You know you're gonna have to face up to the facts
You're just another face in a big crowd
You know we gotta try hard to relax
We can laugh - but not too loud
It's never like you see in a magazine
And you don't even know what you mean to me
And I don't understand this feeling
But I wanna be with you tonight
I wanna be with you tonight
I wanna be with you tonight
Tonight and forever
You drive me crazy and you say that you'll never change
And I could never do what you want to
Don't you find the whole thing a little strange
I don't even know if I like you
It's never like you see on a movie screen
But there's something that you do to me
And I'm not sure that I believe it
But I wanna be with you tonight
I wanna be with you tonight
I wanna be with you tonight
Tonight and forever
I wanna be with you tonight
I wanna be with you tonight
I wanna be with you tonight
Tonight and forever
Tonight and forever
Tonight and forever

Something Beautiful Remains
(t. britten/ g. lyle)
Producer: terry britten
Album: wildest dreams (96)
Tears will leave no stain
Time will ease the pain
For every light that fades
Something beautiful remains
Were living in a world of stars and dust
Between heaven and all that surrounds us
Were travellers here, spirits passing through
And the love we give, is all that will endure
Hey now, what we had is gone
But I still remember you
Just like a rose after the rain
Something beautiful remains
Tears will leave no stain
Time will ease the pain
For every light that fades
Something beautiful remains
Now the darkness falls, the suns going down
One by one, the stars are coming out
Tide comes in, washes footprints from the sand
As one day ends, a new day must begin
Hey now, though we are apart
Youre here forever in my dreams
Hey now, love is lost and gained
(what you gonna do about it, what you gonna say)
Something beautiful remains
Tears will leave no stain
Time will ease the pain
For every light that fades
Something beautiful remains
And you wonder sometimes how we carry on
When youve lost the love you knew
But its alright, its alright
To your own heart be true

All That Never Happens
She walks alone on the brick lane
The breeze is blowing
A year had changed her forever
Just like her grey home
He used to live so close, here
Wed look for places I cant remember
The world was safe when she knew him
She tried to hold him, hold on forever, hold on forever
For all that never happens
And all that never will be
A candle burning
For the love we seldom keep
The earth was raw in her fingers
She overturned it
Considered planting some flowers
They wouldnt last long, no one to tend them
Its funny how these things go
You were the answer to all the questions
The memories made her weary
She shuddered slowly, she didnt want to, she didnt want to
For all that never happens
And all that never will be
A candle burning
For the love we seldom keep
As a distant summer
He began to whisper
He threw a smile her way
She looked into the glass
Liquid surface showing
That they were melding together, present, past
So where can I go from here?
The color fading, he didnt answer
She felt him slip from her vision
She tried to hold him, hold on forever, hold on forever
For all that never happens
And all that never will be
A fire burning
For the love we seldom keep
And for all that never happens
And all that never will be
So close forever
In a silent frozen sleep
Oooooh...
Oooooh...
Oooooh...
Oooooh...
Oooooh...
Aaaaah...

Baby Jane
(stewart, davis)
Baby jane dont leave me hanging on the line
I knew you when you had no one to talk to
Now youre moving in high society
Dont forget I know secrets about you
I used to think you were on my side
But now Im no longer sure
I wish I knew what I know now before
When I give my heart again
I know its gonna last forever
No one tell me where or when
I know its gonna last forever
Baby jane dont it make you feel sad
Just when I thought that we were winning
You and I were so close in every way
Dont time fly when youre loving and laughing
Ive said goodbye so many times
The situation aint all that new
Optimisms my best defense
Ill get through without you
When I give my heart again
I know its gonna last forever
No one tell me where or when
I know its gonna last forever
I wont be that dumb again
I know its gotta last forever
When I fall in love again
I know its gonna last forever
Baby jane Ive said all I want to say
Go your own way dont think twice about me
Cause Ive got ideas and plans of my own
So long darlin Ill miss you believe me
The lesson learned was so hard to swallow
But I know that Ill survive
Im gonna take a good look at myself and cry
When I give my heart again
I know its gonna last forever
No one tell me where or when
I know its gonna last forever
When I fall in love next time
I know its gonna last forever
I wont be that dumb again
I know itll last forever

Stolen Kisses Never Taken
After choir practice
you came out of the church
and she stopped
and said
I read someplace
that Pascal feared
the wide expanse
of the night sky
and you looked up
at the dark sky
and saw the moon
and scattered stars
and sensed her nearness
beside you
and smelt in the night air
her perfume
and you said
it makes you wonder
what’s out there
and she turned
and said
pointing to her breast
and in here too
and you looked
at her breast
and wondered too
and you stood close to her
as others went by
to their cars
and you reached out a hand
and touched hers
and felt the pulse of her
the aliveness within
and never knew
that cancer would enter her
and take her too
and had you known
maybe you would have stolen
many a kiss and hold and gaze
before the death
in those far off days.

Forever
I never wanted another
Come over to me and discover
How i want to be near you
And you need to be far away
You always seem to make me feel at home
Hey you
People like
I never knew, i never knew, i never knew why
You make me wanna cry
I never knew, i never knew, i never knew why
Forever live and die
I look at all of the people
Doing it over and over
You never get any older
I wish that you could be here
I look at you and i
Make the same mistakes
Hey you
People like
I never knew, i never knew, i never knew why
You make me wanna cry
I never knew, i never knew, i never knew why
Forever live and die
I never knew, i never knew, i never knew why
You make me wanna cry

Forever live and die

Our Lady Of Solitude
All summer long she touched me
She gathered in my soul
From many a thorn, from many thickets
Her fingers, like a weavers
Quick and cool
And the light came from her body
And the night went through her grace
All summer long she touched me
And I knew her, I knew her
Face to face
And her dress was blue and silver
And her words were few and small
She is the vessel of the whole wide world
Mistress, oh mistress, of us all
Dearly dead; queen of solitude
I thank you with my heart
For keeping me so close to thee
While so many, oh so many, stood apart
And the light came from her body
And the night went through her grace
All summer long she touched me
I knew her, I knew her
Face to face

Tonight And Forever

Ive waited years
For you tonight
My faith in love has been my guiding light
I heard you voice
I read your heart
I fell in love with you though we were miles apart
Tonight and forever
Tonight and forever i am yours
O sister make
My wedding bed
Tie a bunch of wild thorn branches
At the head
And scatter roses on the floor
Three bright stars shining at our door
Tonight and forever
Tonight and forever
Tonight and forever, i am yours
And a song on the wind
Rising from the sea
A fire so cold
A flame so new
No, i could never ask for more than you
The moon is high
The tide is in
Now the night is ours
Let the dance begin
Tonight and forever
Tonight and forever, i am yours

Hand On My Heart
Rescue me
I cant dream this dream any more, my dream oh my dream
Set me free
I keep holdin on but
I dont know what for
All I know
Is that Ive breathed your name for what feels like a lifetime
I cant let go, youre a part of me
And I die each time
I lose a little more of you
And I look for a sign, to give me hope
Well find a love we once knew
And all I know
Is when were face to face when theres no one between us
With one last embrace, well let time heal the pain
Keep your hand on my heart dont let go
I cant see youre too close to me
Dont leave me in the dark, keep your hand on my heart
Oh please, only you, lonely me
Its not enough, to simply talk about love
As if it were in our control
Now as I struggle with the past, I cant think about the future
Its so hard to let go
And all I know
Is I still whisper your name, girl it wont be the last time
As our lives go separate ways
And let time heal the pain
Keep your hand on my heart dont let go
I cant see youre too close to me
Dont leave me in dark, keep your hand on my heart
Oh please, only you, lonely me
Keep your hand on my heart dont let go
I cant see youre too close to me
Dont leave me in dark, keep your hand on my heart
Oh please
Keep your hand on my heart dont let go
I cant see youre too close to me
Dont leave me in dark, keep your hand on my heart
Oh please, only you, lonely me
Only you, lonely me

When Every Sunset Counts
Sunset glow how well I know
You're warming rays upon my face
It was not always so
That I adored your glow
In youths and haste
It was a terrible waste
But as the autumns passed
And seasons rushed so fast
I prayed to ease the pace
I long for sunshine on my face
Each spring I wait
Behind the Iron Gate
To hear a robin's song
And knew it won't be long
Before I dance along the sandy shore
I feel the sunset glow
And wished it was forever so.

Tell Me Why
Oh, why
I just wanted to lay down and die
You dont know the pain that I feel inside
Could this be a dream or is it real tonight
Tell me why, oh why
It hurts inside, for real, a lie
Can you tell me what went wrong with our love
We laughed, we cried
Through battles, we survived
Our love was sure as the stars above
Oh, tell me why
Oh, why
I just wanted to lay down and die
You dont know the pain that I feel inside
Could this be a dream or is it real tonight
Tell me why, oh why
You said wed be together forever
They say true love never dies
You said that I was all you needed
Why did we have to say goodbye
The situation is killing me
But you had to step out on me
With another man, I dont understand
I saw you holding his hand
Oh, why
I just wanted to lay down and die
You dont know the pain that I feel inside
Could this be a dream or is it real tonight
Tell me why, oh why
I remember the first time that I laid eyes on you
You were the only one for me, I thought I knew
Now my heart is filled with pain
Cuz our love was in vain
Tell me why, oh why, please tell me why
Oh, why
I just wanted to lay down and die
You dont know the pain that I feel inside
Could this be a dream or is it real tonight
Tell me why, oh why
2 - i need to know, please tell me
Why did you have to leave me
I need your love, please tell me
Baby tell me
Repeat 2 while:
I need to know right now
Wont you tell me
Can I testify right now
Girl I used to do the things you wanted me to do
I cooked your breakfast, I rubbed your back
But you had to step out on me
And with another man
Why did you do this to me
Please tell me, please tell me
I deserve better than this
Wont you tell me
What did I do wrong
Oh, tell me why why why
I get lonely without you baby
