The Essence Of Love
I wish I knew how deep and how sincere,
and how extremely wide love really is
as about it I cannot get my head clear
and nowhere I can find a that and this
to really explain the essence of love
nowhere I can find something to measure it;
some say it comes straight from heaven above
like raindrops falling bit by tiny bit
as if it’s the greatest thing they have found
some say it is good, it is really swell,
and about it others are not so profound
as they do kiss, have bliss but do not tell:
but there is nobody that want to tell me
and now for my self I will have to see.

Searching Deep
she put motion in my heart
and poetry in my soul
and through her love,
life began to unfold.
she showed me the
beauty that can lie ahead.
if you only clear your head.
clear your head to things that can be
if you set your heart and soul free.
so i searched deep into myself
for all that was locked up inside.
feelings and emotions that i wanted to hide.
what i found was a surprise in me
a love as deep as the ocean
and as wide as the sky.
enough to spread to everyones eyes.
and now with your eyes wide open
i know now that this is your time.
so open up yourself the same as me
and let all your emotions fly free.
this will only happen when you're searching deep
and in the process your soul you reach.

Can't Explain
Got a feeling inside, it's a certain kind
I feel hot and cold deep down in my soul
I said I can't explain, I'm feeling good now baby
I'm dizzy in my head and I'm feeling blue
Things you've said, well maybe they're true
I'm getting funny dreams again and again
I know what it means but
Can't explain, I think it's love
Try to say it to you when I feel blue
But I can't explain (Can't explain)
Just hear what I'm saying baby (Can't explain)
Dizzy in the head and I'm feeling bad
Things you've said got me real mad
I'm getting funny dreams again and again
I know what it means but
Can't explain, I think it's love
Try to say it to you when I feel blue
But I can't explain (Can't explain)
Just hear me one more time baby (Can't explain)
Dizzy in the head and I'm feeling bad
Things you've said got me real mad
I'm getting funny dreams again and again
I know what it means but
Can't explain, I think it's love
Try to say it to you when I feel blue
But I can't explain (Can't explain)
Just hear me one more time baby (Can't explain)

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

Studies In Love #12
The doorway frames
You a perfect picture silouette
Blue sky of regret
Enough to hang out
Your legs seemed to tremble
At least I imagine that they do
Then again, its probly easy for you
Please dont open your mouth my dear
I can read all the signs I can take it from here
Theres no need to explain
Its perfectly clear
The yellow wall paper peels
A strange halo around your head
Its funny how you notice these
Stupid things instead
You say something awkward
But I wish that you wouldnt
A whole life of you wish you coulds
But just couldnts
Please dont open your mouth my dear
I can read all the signs I can take it from here
Theres no need to explain
Its perfectly clear
I try not to fight too much
It only just makes me mad
Spent half my life loving you
Think of all the love that I could have had
Five years of kisses
Packed in my bags
And this tiny moment fits
All the big things we ever had
I cant quite pinpoint
When it left or what for
Love always steps lightly
Away from the door
Please dont open your mouth my dear
I can read all the signs hell Ive known you for years
Theres no need to explain
No theres no need to explain
Theres no need to explain
Its perfectly clear

This Love's On Me
Sittin' alone at a table for two, when she walked in
I was down on my second love,
Swore I'd never do that again
She sat down beside me and tried to explain
That two bad loves don't spoil the whole darn game
The first love lies
The second lover hurts you deep inside
Now that you're free
This love's on me
I thought my life was at the end of its rope
Without true love, there could be no hope
Then she asked if I would stay for the night
She said, everything's gonna be all right
The sun came up the very next day
I knew what she meant when I heard her say
The first love lies
The second lover hurts you deep inside
Now that you're free
This love's on me

Something That We Do
I remember well the day we wed
I can see that picture in my head
I still believe the words we said
Forever will ring true
Love is certain, love is kind
Love is yours and love is mine
But it isnt something that we find
Its something that we do
Its holding tight, lettin go
Its flying high and laying low
Let your strongest feelings show
And your weakness, too
Its a little and a lot to ask
An endless and a welcome task
Love isnt something that we have
Its something that we do
We help to make each other all that we can be
Though we can find our strength and inspiration independently
The way we work together is what sets our love apart
So closely that you cant tell where I end and where you start
It gives me heart remembering how
We started with a simple vow
Theres so much to look back on now
Still it feels brand-new
Were on a road that has no end
And each day we begin again
Loves not just something that were in
Its something that we do
We help to make each other all that we can be
Though we can find our strength and inspiration independently
The way we work together is what sets our love apart
So closely that you cant tell where I end and where you start
Love is wide, love is long
Love is deep and love is strong
Love is why I love this song
And I hope you love it too
I remember well the day we wed
I can see that picture in my head
Love isnt just those words we said
Its something that we do
Theres no request too big or small
We give ourselves, we give our all
Love isnt someplace that we fall
Its something that we do

To Be My Valentine
If you call all the time.
Place your love on the line.
I'll hear your voice in my ear.
You'll find it's perfectly clear.
To be my Valentine..
If you send me your heart.
It will give me a start.
Send your love if you dare.
You will find that it's fair.
To be my Valentine..
If you show me your love.
I will fly like a dove.
I will show no fear.
You will find it sincere.
To be my Valentine..

Water Is Wide
The Water is Wide" is a traditional folk song. The girls have been
performing it now and then for years and years. I've been lucky
enough to see Mary-Chapin Carpenter add a beautiful third part to the
harmony on a few occasions.
The Water is Wide.
The water is wide, I can't cross o'er
And neither I have wings to fly
Give me a boat that can carry two
And both shall row - my love and I
Now love is gentle, and love is kind
The sweetest flower when first it's new
But love grows old, and waxes cold
And fades away like morning dew
There is a ship, she sails the sea
She's loaded deep as deep can be
But not as deep as the love I'm in
I know not how I sink or swim
The water is wide, I can't cross o'er
And neither I have wings to fly
Give me a boat that can carry two
And both shall row - my love and I
And both shall row - my love and I

Are You Sincere

Are you sincere when you say I love you
Are you sincere when you say you love me too
Oh and are you really mine every day, all the time
Ive gotta know which way to go
Will our love grow, are you sincere
Are you sincere when you say I love you
Honey, are you sincere when you say you love me too
And are you really mine every day, all the time

Love Will Find A Way
You wanna get close to me
The feeling so clear
But I need some time to see
Vision through my tear
You wanna get next to me
I need your intrusion
I dont need to be
Blinded by confusion
Here is my heart
Waiting for you
Here is my soul
I eat at chez nous

Love will find a way for me and you
Love will find a way

So you want to get over me
And thats how you feel
Everything you want to be
Seems so unreal
I want to be all of you
And thats the confusion
Its so hard for me
To draw a conclusion

Waiting for you

I feel hot and cold
Down my soul, baby

Going out of my mind
Dizzy in the head, and Im feeling blue
Things you say well maybe theyre true
I get funny dreams again and again
Knows what it means, but
Cant explain

You know I cant explain

Around My World In 80 Days
And now weve finally reached the point
And you want to get in
I guess that I should tell you
That theres just one thing
Just a little journey, I have to send you on
Just to figure out
Where Im coming from
And where you do belong
Around my world in 80 days
Maybe more if it pays
Around my love, my evil ways
Around my head in 80 days
Discover dungeons of dispair
That is what you have to share
If you walk this way with me
But our love will make us free
Might be that youll like it
Could be that youre shocked
But dont hesitate to open doors
That seem locked
Maybe youll find fear
Maybe youll see clear
Maybe youll find an open heart
So sincere
That wants you to be near
Around my world in 80 days...

Trying Not To Love You
Album: Tribute To Merle Haggard
Trying not to love you, failing in every way
With you around I keep losing ground day by day
Trying to be fair both to me and to you
Trying not to love you, is hard to do.
But, I guess there's no use hiding
What everybody knows
'Cause to other eyes there's no disguise
For the love that shows
So If I'm not being clear
I'll explain these words to you
Trying not to love you is hard to do.
