Cherish
Cherish is the word I use to describe
All the feeling that I have hiding here for you inside
You don't know how many times I've wished that I had told you
You don't know how many times I've wished that I could hold you
You don't know how many times I've wished that I could mold you
Into someone who could cherish me as much as I cherish you
Perish is the word that more than applies
To the hope in my heart each time I realize
That I am not gonna be the one to share your dreams
That I am not gonna be the one to share your schemes
That I am not gonna be the one to share what seems
To be the life that you could cherish as much as I do yours
Oh

That I am not gonna be the one to share your dreams
That I am not gonna be the one to share your schemes
That I am not gonna be the one to share what
Seems to be the life that you could
Cherish as much as I do yours
Oh I'm beginning to think that man has never found
The words that could make you want me
That have the right amount of letters, just the right sound
That could make you hear, make you see
That you are drivin' me out of my mind
Oh I could say I need you but then you'd realize
That I want you just like a thousand other girls
Who'd say they loved you With all the rest of their lies
When all they wanted was to touch your face, your hands
And gaze into your eyes
Cherish is the word I use to describe
All the feeling that I have hiding here for you inside
You don't know how many times I've wished that I had told you
You don't know how many times I've wished that I could hold you
You don't know how many times I've wished that I could
Mold you into someone who could
Cherish me as much as I cherish you
And I do cherish you
And I do cherish you
Cherish is the word

Cherish
Cherish
those who are close to you
before they go away.
Cherish
all your memories
in case they fade someday.
Cherish
each day you have,
treat it as your last.
Cherish
everything you have
ensuring they never get lost.
Cherish
every moment
as if it maybe your last.
Cherish
everything you possess,
as you might never get it again.
Cherish
your life,
as it is the only one you got.
Cherish
your health
if it fails you will fade away.
Cherish
the love of others
and return it equally.
But most of all
cherish everything.

This New Year
Im gonna find true love
This new year
January blues
The nights are dark and cold
The heartaches are frozen so they hount you
February snows
Abandoned cars and glowing fires
Sunlight from a shining spire blinds you
Dont you depend on love thats here then gone
Dont you look back to where the tears came from
This new year
Were gonna make it work now and for a lifetime
This new year
Gonna spread the word and shout it from the rooftops
Gonna find true love and cherish it, cherish it always
This new year
Cool winds in the spring
Blow the cobwebs out
Take away the doubts with freedom
Hear this beating heart
The feeling so alive
With you right by my side Ill never die lonely
We must depend on love thats here to stay
And jesus loves you more than you can say
This new year
Were gonna make it work now and for a lifetime
This new year
Were gonna spread the word and shout it from the rooftops
Were gonna find true love and cherish it, cherish it always
Well see a new revival call yeah
Well reach out to the broken ones
Well tell it to the world
To every boy and girl that love has come
This new year
Were gonna find true love
Ooh cherish it
This new year
Were gonna make it work now and for a lifetime
This new year
Were gonna spread the word and shout it from the rooftops
This new year
We re gonna find true love and cherish it always
This new year
Were gonna reach out to this new year

Love Not Hate Sestina
I'm so glad that I found you my love
You must have been sent to me from above
You have taught me to never hate
Our lives entwined, it must be fate.
You and yours, I'll always cherish
Even after I shall perish
Us not being one, is a thought I perish
The nights are better with you my love
Our days together I will always cherish
My favorite times, watching the stars above
Is this our destiny, or is it just fate
The nights without you, I will always hate
Devotion is so much better than hate
These feelings I have, shall never perish
Our lives together, such a great fate
Shall this diminish, never my love
Only if the moon falls from above
Shall I stop loving the woman that I cherish
To adore, to care, to want and to cherish
These feelings are here to deny that I hate
Anything that lives on the earth or above
My heart sinks, when I see one perish
Your influence is that strong, my love
And from now on you determine our fate
I'm not sure what has decided my fate
But I must accept that fact and cherish
The knowledge that I have been given your love
To keep within my heart and never hate
The others in your life, before they perish
Because they too, were sent from above
Sometimes my heart soars in the clouds above
Never denying this grand glorious fate
Hoping that it will stay and not ever perish
Of this my Lord, I pray you will cherish
Our relationship, and not allow hate
To interrupt this wondrous time, with my love
I beseech the Lord above, to help me to always cherish
Our time, for it taught me, my fate is to adore, and never hate
Even after I do perish, you'll be my very essence, my love

Love Cherish Love
If you have a Love
That feels the same for you
Cherish this Love
For you will never be blue
If you have a Love
Who is thankful & grateful
Cherish this Love
For she will always be plentiful
If you have a Love
Who has grace & style
Cherish this Love
For you will have the grandest smile
If you have a Love
Who rises like Sunshine
Cherish this Love
For she is pure, true & divine
If you have a Love
Who dreams like Midnight
Cherish this Love
For she will always do you right
If you have a Love
Who inhances like Spring
Cherish this Love
For the Bluebirds will forever sing
If you have a Love
Who is as bright as a Star
Cherish this Love
For she will carry you very far

Looking For The Good Times
Looking for the good times, baby
Gonna have my fun
Looking for the good times, baby
Girl you can come along with me
Wow, youre gonna see
Just how fine this big old world can be
Looking for the good times, baby
Gonna have a ball
Lookiong for the good times, baby
You can share it all
Theres more to life than youve been living, girl
You can share it all
Theres things to do that you aint thought of yet
You can share it all
So let me be the one to do the giving, girl
You can share it all
Youll find the things you thought you couldnt get
Looking for the good times, baby
Gonna have my fun
Looking for the good times, baby
Girl you can come along with me - with me
Looking for the good times, baby
Gonna have a ball
Looking for the good times, baby,
Girl you can share it all...

I Want You
I, yi yi yi (repeat 3 times)
Chorus:
I want you the right way
I want you, but I want you to want me too,
Want you to want me baby
Just like I want you
Da da, da da, da da da
Ill give you all the love I want in return
But half a love is all I feel, sweet darling
Its too bad, its just too sad
You dont want me no more
But Im gonna change your mind
Some way, somehow
(chorus)
Da da, da da, da da da
One way love is just a fantasy
To share is precious, pure and fair
Dont play with something you should cherish for life
Oh baby, dont you wanna care?
Aint it lonely out there?

I want you the right way
I want you, but I want you to want me too,
Want me baby, just like I want you.

Top Of The World
I wished I was smarter
I wished I was stronger
I wished I loved Jesus
The way my wife does
I wish it had been easier
Instead of any longer
I wished I could have stood where you would have been proud
But that won't happen now
That won't happen now
There's a whole lot of singing that's never gonna be heard
Disappearing everyday without so much as a word somehow
Think I broke the wings off that little song bird
She's never gonna fly to the top of the world right now
Top of the world
I don't have to answer any of these questions
Don't have no God to teach me no lessons
I come home in the eveing
Sit in my chair
One night they called me for supper
But I never got up
I stayed right there in my chair
There's a whole lot of singing that's never gonna be heard
Disappearing everyday without so much as a word somehow
Think I broke the wings off that little song bird
She's never gonna fly to the top of the world right now
Top of the world
I wished I'd a known you
Wished I'd a shown you
All of the things I was on the inside
I'd pretend to be sleeping
When you come in in the morning
To whisper good-bye
Go to work in the rain
I don't know why
Don't know why
'Cause everone's singing
We just wanna be heard
Disappearing everyday without so much as a word somehow
Wanna grab a hold of that little song bird
Take her for a ride to the top of the world right now
To the top of the world
To the top of the world
To the top of the world
To the top of the world
To the top of the world
To the top of the world
To the top of the world
To the top of the world

I' m Gonna Be Around
It's been so long since we took the time
To share words
From deep inside us
We're in our own world spinning our wheels
But you know how I feel
Well since the first time I took your hand
My love for you
Has just been growing
You always seem to understand
You know how I am
(chorus)
I'm gonna love you 'til the end
I'm gonna be
Your very true friend
I wanna share your ups and downs
I'm gonna be around
When you're alone 'cos I'm away
Don't be sad
Don't be afraid
I'm gonna turn my thoughts to you
Like I always do
(chorus)
I'm gonna love you 'til the end
I'm gonna be
Your very true friend
I'm gonna share your ups and downs
I'm gonna be around
Catch you when you fall
Hold you when you're down
Sharing every moment
I wanna show you all I do
I believe I've found a miracle
In you
(chorus)
I'm gonna love you 'til the end
I'm gonna be
Your very true friend
I'm gonna share your ups and downs
I'm gonna be around

Sittin On Top Of The World
Remember the times we used to play
Wed sing and wed dance all damn day
But all I do is sing the blues
But have I forsaken you by telling you
What you must do
And all I do is sing the blues
But I would never lie, let things go by
Leave you in a road to die
I would never ever say good bye
Never gonna say good bye
Never gonna say good bye
Remember the times that we
Used to share
You got to remember the times
That we used to share
That we used to share
But the only way for you to survive
Is to open your heart it will guide
You wanna stay in this world of music and life
You got to turn around
And spread a little love and get high

When You Gonna
Rick & lisa (astley & carter)
[rick]
Love is a special thing
It means more to me than just a wedding ring
When two people join as one
They dont know just what has begun
It comes to love, honour, cherish and obey
You promised girl that you would not go away
When you gonna come back home girl
You know Im all alone, girl
When you gonna come back home
When you gonna come back home girl
You know Im all alone, girl
When you gonna come back home
[lisa]
Love is a precious thing
So cant you see the joy that it can bring
So how can you be so cruel
Youve gone and broken every rule
You promised to love, honour, cherish and obey
You promised me youd never go away
When you gonna stay at home boy
You see I was alone, boy
When you gonna stay at home
When you gonna stay at home boy
You see I was alone, boy
When you gonna stay at home
[rick]
Loves got a hold on me
I need you girl, cant you see
[lisa]
So why dont we spend some time
Lets get together, maybe we could find
[rick & lisa]
Weve got to love, honour, cherish and obey
Weve got to promise that well never go away
Never gonna leave you home, no
Leave you all alone
Now Im gonna stay at home
Never gonna be alone, no
You see I should have known
Never gonna leave you home

Short Couplet- Brotherly Love
In eyes as clear as glass I see
That wisdom of love is for me
To hold in time and cherish much
Lovely emotions: hugs, and such.
The simple things like honey bees
Know best to heed brother’s pleas
When unfortunate is the fate,
The many join and share the plate.
Through sweet, or sour, they are there
To share with brother, for they care.
Man can learn a lot from the beast,
To cherish brother is the least
That one human can humbly do,
For him to know love that is true.

Youre Gonna Break My Heart Again
(coverdale/sykes)
Now I know
Ive seen that look
On your face before
When you realised
All the memories
Walked right out the door...
Now its eye for an eye
A tooth for a tooth
No more hiding behind the truth
Im gonna get exactly
Whats coming to me
Youre gonna break my heart again,
You never let me forget it
Youre gonna break my heart again
But, youre gonna live to regret it
Now you say
I took advantage of you
When you never knew the score
But, you should know
Weve been this way
One thousand times before
You told me once,
You told me twice
Its down to me, girl
To pay the price
But, this times the last time
Thats for sure...
Youre gonna break my heart again,
You never let me forget it
Youre gonna break my heart again
But, youre gonna live to regret it
Yes you are
You talk of how our love
Was meant to be
And all the time
You sacrificed for me...
So how could I forget it,
Why should I regret it
cos when you told me you loved me
I knew it was lies
So no more crying, no more goodbyes,
cos this times the last time
Thats for sure...break my heart...
Now you say
There is no one in the world
Can get the better of you
An you should know
cos you never made it easy
With the pain you put me thru
I told you once
I told you twice
Its down to you, girl
To pay the price
cos this times the last time
Thats for sure...
Youre gonna break my heart again,
You never let me forget it
Youre gonna break my heart again
But, youre gonna live to regret it
I just cant take anymore,
No more, no more, no more...

I Wish
I wished I had called to see if you were OK
But I was so caught up in my life
To even worry about your.
I wished I had been there for you
But I was to busy drinking
To even worry about you.
I wished I had cared more
But all I wanted was to escape
Even from you
I wished I had taken you seriously
But you tend to lie a lot
And I couldn't take you seriously
I wished I had told you I felt the same way
But I didn't want anyone to know I was in pain
Not even you
I wished you didn't feel like it was something you had to do
I wished you would of never pulled that trigger that night
I wished you could come back
I wished I told you that I loved you
But all theses excuses I make and wishes
Won't change the fact that your gone.

Cherish our friendship
Cherish the sweet memories
Cherish our sweet dreams

Are You Gonna Be There
If I was down
Would your arms lift me up to higher ground
With just the strength of your love
When I was lost
Would I find something in your eyes to lead me home
And if it all went wrong
Would you be there to hold
It's easy to be there through the good times
But when the times get hard
Would you stay or walk away
Chorus:
Are you gonna be there when the rain comes
Are you gonna be there with the water
Can you say you'll be there with the river
Are you gonna be there
Will you stand by my side through the bad times
Through whatever we'll be will you still be mine
Will you stay in my life for a lifetime
Are you gonna be there
When I need someone to hold
Someone there for me
Are you gonna be there
In all my world
If it should all fall down
Will you be there
Be there to turn it around
Will you still care
Can I depend on you to see me through this life
If it all goes wrong
Will you still make it right
It's easy to be there through the good times
But when the times get hard
Will you still be on my side
Chorus
When I need someone beside me
Someone there for me
Are you gonna be
There with the arms to hold me
There with the love I need
Then will you be there
Will you be there
Heart and soul
I need to know
Are you gonna be there
Are you gonna still care
(Are you gonna still care)
Are you gonna be there
Will you stand by my side
(Stand by my side)
Are you gonna be mine
Are you gonna be there
(Are you gonna be there)

Cherish your visions; cherish your ideals; cherish the music that stirs in your heart, the beauty that forms in your mind, the loveliness that drapes your purest thoughts, for out of them will grow all delightful conditions, all heavenly environment; of these, if you but remain true to them, your world will at last be built.

Who You Gonna Believe
I remember every word you said
We cant go on this way
Should I go or stay
But Ive given you everything
That one woman could give a man
So when you gonna recognize and realize
What we had
(now tell me)
Who you gonna believe, her or me?
Whats it gonna be, who you gonna believe?
Before your heart shatters, love is all that matters
You put me through that lovers game over and over
Someday someones gonna put you through the same
Lover to lover, I hope you dont find out too late
I hope you never have to feel the pain
cause if you lose the love you took for granted
That you could never appreciate
Who you gonna believe, her or me?
Whos it gonna be, who you gonna believe?
Before you make up your mind
You better take some time
What about me, dont you think I need a man here
Standing by my side
And what about you, you need a woman to hold you
Through those cold and lonely nights
Oh, what about us, we belong together for ever and ever.
Oh, Ill be there if you should ever need me
Oh, I know everything will work out fine, just believe
Oh, I know cause weve been through this a million times
Keep on believing well I hope you dont find out too late
Hope you never have to feel the pain
Cause if you lose the love you took for granted
That you could never appreciate, after all this time
Who you gonna believe, her or me?
Whos it gonna be, who you gonna believe?
Who are you fooling
Well youre not fooling me no
Who you gonna believe, you can risk it all
With someone elses world
Wondering if its love
Baby oh baby, you should know by now
You can believe in me

Not Gonna Give Into It
(olivia newton-john)
No me voy a rendir, no no
No me voy a rendir, no no
No me voy a rendir, no no
No me voy a rendir
Oh Im not gonna give into it no
Im not gonna give into it no no
Im not gonna give into it no
Im not gonna give into it
There are nights when the moon
Shines in my eyes and haunts my mind
And I cant sleep a wink
And I really dont want to think
There are times when I feel
If I sleep Ill die
But I dare not cry
And I run from my tears
And I fight them back with my fears
Oh Im not gonna give into it no
Im not gonna give into it no no
Im not gonna give into it no
Im not gonna give into it
And I feel so alone
For although you care
No one else can share
Its my own misery
In the end its all up to me
Oh Im not gonna give into it no
Im not gonna give into it no no
Im not gonna give into it no
Im not gonna give into it
And I watch you sleep soundly
So peacefully unaware
And your breath is soothing to me
And its good to know youre there
Then the morning comes
With its golden light
And I feel alright
And my heart beats again
But the night is not my friend
Oh Im not gonna give into it no
Im not gonna give into it no no
Im not gonna give into it no
Im not gonna give into it
