Cats
Those who love cats which do not even purr
Or which are thin and tired and very old,
Bend down to them in the street and stroke their fur
And rub their ears, and smooth their breast, and hold
Them carefully, and gaze into their eyes of gold.
For how can they pass what does not ask for love
But draws it out of those who have too much,
Frustrated souls who cannot use it all, who have
Somewhere too tight and sad within them, such
A tenderness it flows through all they touch.
They are the ones who love without reward,
Those on whom eyes are closed, from whom heads turn,
Who know only too well they can afford
To squander love, since in the breast it burns
With the cold anguish every lover learns.
So they pass on, victims of silent things,
And what they love remains indifferent
And stretches in the sun and yawns, or licks the rings
That sheathe its claws, or sleeps and is content,
Not knowing who she was, or what she meant.

Her...
I can never get my mind off her,
I wonder if she'd mind if i'd,
make her my own,
and never let her go,
hug her tight,
treat her right,
act all polite,
take her on a date,
make sure i'm never late,
kiss her on her lips,
talk about our kids,
Make her feel like princess,
living in a castle,
hope that is not too much hassle,
But i am so blessed,
hope i can be the best,
hold you tight,
have your BR3A$t,
on my chest,
pass the test,
NOW YOUR MINE!

Love Remains (feat. Christopher Cross)
Album: When It All Goes South
When the last drop of rain has fallen
When the final note has drifted away
When the earth ceases to turn
And the last fire has burned
When the wind stops its ceaseless blowing
When the last wave has come into shore
When the sun has called it a day
And the stars have all floated away
My heart will still be yours, baby
My dreams will still be yours, darlin'
You and I will find nothing has changed
Love, love, love
Love, love, love (remains)
When we have grown old together
And the hourglass runs out of sand
Darlin' you will kiss me and then
Forever starts all over again
My heart will still be yours, baby
My dreams will still be yours, darlin'
You and I will find nothing has changed
Love, love, love
Love, love, love (remains)
My soul is one with yours, baby
Just to hold you drives me crazy
In your eyes I see... you feel the same
Love, love, love
Love, love, love remains
Love remains like an endless flame
Through the brightest joys and the darkest pain
In the end....
My heart will still be yours, baby
My dreams will still be yours, darlin'
You and I will find nothing has changed
Love, love, love
Love, love, love (remains)
My soul is one with yours, baby
Just to hold you drives me crazy
In your eyes I see... you feel the same
Love, love, love
Love, love, love remains
Love, love, love
Love, love, still remains
Love, love, love
Love, love, remains
Love, love, love
Love, remains
Love, love, love
Love, love, still remains
Love, love, love
Love, love, love
Love, love, still remains
Oh, love, love, love
Love, love, love
Oh, love, love, love

I Love daniel bianchie
I love to see you smile
And I love knowing that I caused that smile
I love to see you happy
And I love knowing that I caused that happiness
I love to look into your beautiful blue eyes
And I love the way I fall into them
I love it when you hold my hand
And I love having the courage to grab and hold yours
I love to tease and torment you
And I love it when you tease and torment me
I love it when you touch me
And I love to touch you
I love rediscovering how beautiful you are each time I see you
And I love realizing how attractive you make me feel
I love wanting so badly to kiss you
And I love the way you want to take things slow
I love the fact that you still want to be my love
And I love that I want to be yours
I love so many things about you
But the most important thing is:
I Love you!

Hear God's Call sung to Bond's Thunderball theme
Love is the meaning we're alive!
Love shares so others may survive!
Love cares for this world, lost souls and all!
So it lives to hear God's call!
Love lifts the spirits just to bless!
Love's gifts grant more than happiness!
They won't make us sinners doomed to fall!
For love lives to hear God's call!
Any wisdom love learns pure gold
That's meant not just for one to hold!
Love's like a kiss upon your lips!
Love's touch is more than fingertips!
Yet love's sure, here's the first great truth of all!
So love lives to hear God's call!

Next To You
When we met
The sparkle in your eyes
Showed me that
We were meant to be
In love
Sharing our fantasies
You touched me
Then we kissed
I could not believe
That love was so strong
It didnt take too long
To learn
Love will go on and on
Loves an everlasting bond
When Im next to you
Our love flows through
I cant explain
What you do
When Im next to you
I feel brand new
I love you for
All the things you do
Cant deny
The feelings deep inside
Our hearts and minds
Love is alive
Its true
Im so into you
I love you
Solo
When Im next to you
Our love flows through
I cant explain
What you do
When Im next to you
I feel brand new
I love you for
All the things you do
You know when Im all alone
And youre so far away
I wish that you were here
Holding me
And I find myself thinking
Of how it would be
Knowing youre with me
I love the way I feel

My Eyes
As you gaze into my eyes
there is nothing I disguise.
You see desire, nothing more.
You see what love has in store.
As you gaze into my eyes
the only thing you'll realize
will be the love I have for you.
And then what is it you will do?
Close your eyes, shut them tight
or open them and see the sight
that holds you in a lover's spell
and captures the image of how you fell
in love?

Eyes Wide Open
Your eyes are wide open, but yet you don’t see
All the love I have inside of me.
Eyes wide open, but you don’t look around
You don’t open your ears, you don’t hear a sound.
Eyes wide open but the beauties that surround you
Do not seem to exist.
Is it that your eyes on you are playing tricks?
Eyes wide open and yet you have a blank stare.
Have you closed off your mind?
Or you just don’t care.
What can I do to remove that haze
So that on my face you can gaze.
If I hold you tenderly in my arms
And kiss those beautiful eyes.
Will they move? Will they cry?
What must I do so that you can see
That our love was meant to be.
They say that you went deep inside yourself
To hide the hurt and pain
But without your love “ I am the same”.
Eyes wide open. Did they just glance at me?
Is it because your heart is finally free?
I see a tear forming in your eyes
Emotions being let out that you tried to hide.
Eyes wide open- now they are mine
I can see your love for the very first time.

Dormant
Love is dormant when you
Don't remember it,
I do not want to think of it,
It makes me weep,
It gives me grief,
When I am settle and comfortable,
When I don't
Caress it,
It does not wake,
It does not keep me up at nights
When I don't see the beauty in
People that are in love,
In the birds that sing hymns of
Happines when they join
In their nest to make love.
If I see this tenderness,
If I gaze at them,
All it brings to me is lament, sadness,
For I do not want to think of love.
I want to be free,
Free of what doesn't even
Imprison me,
I do not want to hold love,
Love is like a golden nail
Thrust in my heart,
Love doesn't hold me,
It has no name, no future,
No bones or face,
Love has not just abandon me,
It laugh’s at me,
It hides from me,
I do not know where to find it,
It has no route to take me,
Not even a destiny to hold on to,
Love, love.
I don't know what to do anymore,
For love is not near me,
Love is a thing
That I rather not touch,
Because when I touch it- it burns
Like fire, it kills my hopes my peace,
I cannot, and I do not want to think of love,
Love is not a feeling,
Is more like an ability,
That I refuse to Activate,
And let it sink me away like a
Suffering slave.

Do You Love Me
You really like my limousine
You like the way the wheels roll
You like my seven inch leather heels
And goin to all of the shows, but
Do you love me, do you love me
Do you love me, really love me
You like the credit cards and private planes
Money can really take you far
You like the hotels and fancy clothes
And the sound of electric guitars, but
Do you love me, do you love me
Do you love me, I mean like do you
Really love me
You really like rock n roll
All of the fame and the masquerade
You like the concerts and studios
And all the money, honey, that I make, but
Do you love me, do you love me
Do you love me, really love me
Your backstage pass and black sunglasses
Make you look just like a queen
Even the fans, they know your face
From all of the magazines, but
Do you love me (do you love me)
Do you love me (do you love me)
Do you love me (do you love me)
Really love me (really love me)
I wanna know
Do you love me (do you love me)
Do you love me (do you love me)
Do you love me (do you love me)
I mean like do you
Really love me (really love me)
I wanna know
Do you love me (do you love me)
Do you love me (do you love me)
Do you love me (do you love me)
I mean like do you
Really love me (really love me)
I want you to (do you love me, do you love me)
I need you to (do you love me, do you love me)
And you know Im so tired of everybody sayin it
And you know, (do you love me, do you love me)
I just gotta know if you really really really, really love me
(do you love me, do you love me)
So come on, do you love me (do you love me)
I need you to
Do you love me (do you love me) I want you to
Do you love me (do you love me) I need you
Really love me (do you love me)
I wanna know
Do you love me (do you love me) do you, do you
Do you love me (do you love me)
I just got to have some love (do you love me, do you love me)
I just got to have some love (do you love me)
I just got to have some love, love, love, love, love

Bitter Sweet
No I don't know how to love you
The way you want me to
Coz everytime I try
Something always changes with you
First it's cold baby
And then there's too much heat
One minute I'm up in heaven
And the next I'm down in the street
Coz we got a love
That's bittersweet
I said we got a love
It's bittersweet
Sometimes when I'm with you
It's like you're just not there
When I look into your eyes
I see that thousand yard stare
Then you're back in love with me
Like you can't get enough
Rough into smooth
And the smooth back into the rough
Ohhhh help me now
We got a love
That's bittersweet
We got a love, oh darlin'
That's bittersweet
I don't know anybody
Anybody like you
I never met anybody
Could make me feel the way you do
I wish that I could love you
The way you want me to
So scared you'll pull out the rug
Darling if I do
It's cold it's cold
And now there's too much heat
One mnute I'm up in heaven
And the next, I'm walking the street
We got a love
That's bittersweet
You know we got a love
That's bittersweet
We got a love
That's bittersweet
You know, we got a love, oh darlin'
That's bittersweet.
Flamin' hot
Then not.
Ooooooooh, bitter memory
I said we got a love, oooh,
We got a love.

Natural Love
There is a natural mystic love flowing through the air and,
If you listen carefully you will hear and feel it;
For my sweet love is all that you need to grow in life.
There is a natural mystic love blowing around you and,
If you listen carefully now you will feel it and taste it;
For my sweet love is all that you need on this love.
Oh my natural lover! Where are you?
Oh my natural woman! Where are you?
For you are the mystics of my eyes among the lot;
And your sweet moves do turn me on!
Try to bring your natural love closer to me for,
I will do anything for this love;
I am in love and i will die for you!
Try to bring your natural love to me and,
Come and cool down my heartbeat;
For i am in love with you and,
I will make use of this natural mystics that flows around.

What she should hear everyday
Not a day i would ever miss
when i say i love you
not a kiss i would ever wait
to tell her i love her
sometimes i don't know why
but i never let a day pass by
to tell my girl i love her
never would i let the day slide away
to tell my girl i love her
Not a night i would ever forget
when i say i love you
before every seasons sunset
i tell my girl i love her
not a day passes away
unless i tell my girl i love her
when her soft eyes drip with tears
i console those waiting ears
by telling her i will always love her
I love you now
i love you today
i will love you tomorrow
and i am here to stay
because i love you
and know you love me
and through the ballad of time
you will always be
the one i love
the one i cherish
I love her
i tell my girl i love her
i tell her everyday

Love Burns
See what you do
You make me act so crazy
I'm overcome, I know
Stealin' my own show
For your love
And who am I now, Clown or Casanova
I'm never sure with you
And what more can I do
For your love burns
Warmer than you know
When love burns,
Never let it go away
And where do we go
Find a road to lead us
I'm searching in your eyes
A world beyond the skies
For your love burns
Brighter than you know
When love burns,
Never let it go away
Love burns
Brighter than you know
Oh, love burns
Never let it go away
Love burns when the spirit is wounded
Cut deep by the sound of rejection
Love burns in the soul of the seeker
Blue shadows in every direction
Love burns when the heart is uncovered
In the rage of the coldly storm
Love burns
Through the night and the morning
Till the frozen heart is warm
Love burns
Love burns
Love burns
Love burns

Is It Wrong Me to Make You Love Me?
Is it wrong me to say I love you?
Is it wrong me to tell I miss you?
Is it wrong me to hold you tight?
Is it wrong me?
When rainbow of love sprang up again
In the long cold broken heart
Love does not bloom only for you
So share with me
Is it wrong me to say I love you?
Is it wrong me to tell I miss you?
Is it wrong me to hold you tight?
Is it wrong me?
Don't regret all winter's left
It won't come back even you turn the time
Love does not bloom only for her
Here I'm waiting
Is it wrong me to say I love you?
Is it wrong me to tell I miss you?
Is it wrong me to hold you tight?
Is it wrong me?
It's time for you to feel spring again
Look at my eyes, don't turn around
Love is not only just sorrow
There's happiness

I Love You
I love you when you laugh with me
I love you when you smile
I love you when you're mad at me
Hope it's only for a while
I love you when you talk with me
I love you when you yell
I love you when you ignore me
Even though it feels like hell
I love you when you listen
I love you when you cry
I love more & more everyday
Without you I would die
I love you when we go for walks
I love you when we eat
I love you for your time with me
Your presence is a treat
I love you when you gaze at me
I love you when your gone
Although I'd rather be with you
My love for you goes on
I love you when you encourage me
I love you when your cold
I love you when your critical
With you I want to grow old
I love the way you love me
I love you when you hate
I love you through our journey
For you are my soul mate
I love you when you hurt me
Your words they cut so deep
I love you when you touch me
I love you in my sleep
I love you every second
I love you when we're foes
I love you when your my best friend
Cause that's the way love goes
I love you with everything I am
And with everything I do
Even though we are not perfect
I love you because you're you
I'll love you when I'm in Heaven
I will love you from above
I'll love to watch your journey finish
I love you, you're my love

Let Me Love You Once Before You Go
(steve dorff / molly ann leikin)
Its like looking in the window of a fine boutique
Knowing there is nothing that I could ever buy
Still I want your love so much that I could die
But I just cant lead a double life
Being one mans lover, one mans wife
But you can start a fire raging
Just by touching me
Even though I know were not supposed to touch, no
Oh, I never wanted anyone so much
How I wish that I had found you first
Dont you see my hearts about to burst?
Let me love you once before you go
Your eyes keep saying yes to me
So dont keep saying no
Let me love you once and you will see
No-ones ever gonna love you more than me
Let me lock the door
Open up all my love to you
All the love Ive longed to give you since we met
Its the only chance Im ever gonna get
And I just cant let it disappear
Sweet baby, please come over here
Let me love you once before you go
Your eyes keep saying yes to me
So dont keep saying no
Let me love you once and you will see
No-ones ever gonna love you more than me
Ahh
(let me love you once before you go)
Your eyes keep saying yes to me
So dont keep saying no, ahh, ahh, ahh, ahh
(let me love you once and you will see)
No-ones ever gonna love you more than me
Ahh, ahh, ahh
(let me love you once before you go)
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
(let me love you once, ahh, ahh)
(ever gonna love)

Forsaking My Love
I hate you
I wish to tear you away from me
This tumor that clings to my chest
The thing that makes me ache
That haunts my dreams
And tears at my desires
You have brought me only pain
My untamed heart
That beast that gnaws at my soul
That pitifully whines
Bringing my mind into unwanted pain
Yet how can I blame you
How can I chastise you when I listen intently to your pleas
Why should I punish you for what my eyes feed upon
How can I blame my eyes for falling upon her
She who brings light to the eternal darkness of my soul
She whose eyes bring me to subjection
Whose smile leaves me in awe
How can I blame you when my ears are met with her laughter
How they submerge into her song
How they quiver at her voice
Why should I punish you for inclining my soul
Tempting it with the one sense that has been forsaken by her
How could I look over the thought of the brushing of lips
The touching of hands
The binding of the soul, mind, and body
O you wretched heart
What am I to do with this constant companion
How could I tear you away
When she is the cause of my agony
Or rather
It is the lack of her which brings me sorrow
It is the need for her that leaves my heart in pain
Yet she is not mine
She was never mine
She will never be mine
O my poor heart
How can I make you see reason
When all you do is show me the truth

Love has got me in triangles
Love cant pass me by
Love has got me in triangles
Love cant pass me by
Gold for friday, work all day

Playing love is going to the top, bop
Being in the same platoon
Playing love with same balloons
Playing with the same old face
Love triangles

Love toblerones

Knowing you
Exhausted and tired, I met you,
All the right reasons I saw,
Asked for a hand you gave me both,
Called for care I received love,
Knowing you knowing love
Shivering without any hope,
I asked for warmth i got heat,
In your tender arms i rested,
Darling give me more
Knowing you is knowing love
You took me by the hand,
Whispered in my ear,
You called me to your side,
You loved so dearly,
Take my hand you will see,
Love is becoming us,
Knowing you is knowing love
Tell me you love me,
With words im healed,
With the gentle touch im in ecstacy,
Knowing you was a fortune,
Like a beggar finding gold,
Knowing you was knowing love
