Promises For Tomorrow
The winds
of time
kept
catching
your
sweet
word s.
Blowing
them in
my
direction.
Filling
my heart
with
promises.
Promises
for
tomorrow.
This
heart
began to
surrender.
waking up.
so alive
and
passionate.
waiting
for you
to
invade
my
dreams.
yearn ing
to lift
you into
my
cradle
of
love.

Whispering Promises
whispering promises is easy to
do
many times they never come true
the one whispering promises
is not sincere
playing make-believe with your
ear
lots of voices hum a tune
whispering promises forgotten
soon
truth is absent from the start
a game of words played with a
heart
lying tongues have a cruel bite
whispered promises in the night.

Years May Come
(howard houston)
Producer for bonnie: howard houston
Heartaches and so much pain
Cry out to you in vain
Ill keep my promises, oh darling
Dont let this sweet love die
So many reasons why
Ill keep my promises oh darling, oh yeah
Ill wait for you my sweet love
*years may come
And years may go
Still theres one thing that I know
That my heart is only beating
Just for you, darling
Only a fool would let you go
I will always love you so
For my heart is only waiting just for you
Time passes by so slow
With every hour I know
Ill keep my promises, sweet darling
The stories that you hear
Jealous words have no fear
Ill keep my promises, sweet darling, oh, oh
I adore you my, sweet love

Promises
Remember how it used to be,
Remember how you promised me,
That life would always be good,
You forget the fact you lied to me,
You locked my heart and threw the key,
I'm so misunderstood,
What to say when all the words have gone,
Promises, promises,
What to do when all our thoughts have flown,
Promises, promises,
Remember how I gave my heart,
And all at once we fell apart,
Was I supposed to forgive you,
You forgot the fact you said to me,
That we were for eternity,
You're so easy to see through,
What to say when all the words have gone,
Promises, promises,
What to do when all our thoughts have flown,
Promises, promises,
Remember that I'm over you,
And know that I will make it through,
Hope you never forget it,
The promises you made to me,
Were really lies and fantasy,
Hope you come to regret it,
What to say when all the tears have dried,
Promises, promises,
What to think when all our love has died,
Promises, promises,
The promises we used to keep have gone,
And with them all the words,
That kept us both from seeing what was wrong,
The rest is silent, What to say when all the words have gone,
Promises, promises,
What to do when all our thoughts have flown,
Promises, promises,
What to say when all the tears have dried,
Promises, promises,
What to think when all our love has died,
Promises, promises.

Promises Made
(mark paul/john duarte)
You said goodbye
And broke this heart inside of me
Teardrops fell
Like hours to eternity
The room was silent
As some forgotten melody
Your words of steel
Still echo in my memory
Promises made, promises broken
Promises made, promises broken
I thought we had a chance
To really make it last
Now the future looks to me
Like some unwelcome guest
Ill be alright
As soon as I get over you
But this time it wont be
Such an easy thing to do
Promises made are
Promises broken
Caught up in the sorrow
Tangled in dreams
In the lonely hours
Of silent screams
In the heart of the darkness
I break down
I feel the spirit of you
All around
Promises made are
Promises broken
Promises made are
Promises broken

World Of Promises
They come from a land were the sun don't shine
running away from the cold
They travel so far in the name of love
hoping the dreams will come true
Walking the way through endless fields
trying to make it together
??????????????????
????????????????????
And they will give anything
just to be free from the pain
and they won't surrender
Living in a world of promises
Living in a world of dreams and hopes
Living in a world of promises
Lost in the city wondering why
no one will open the door
It's more to the truth than meets the eye
something they all felt before
And they will give anything
just to stand tall once again
and they won't surrender
Living in a world of promises
Living in a world of dreams and hopes
Living in a world of promises
In the tan of the nigh can hear them crying
out for a life to hol on to
Somebody knows were the answers lying
wait for your trails and don't let go
Living in a world of promises
Living in a world of dreams and hopes
Living in a world of promises

Somewhere In Fantasyland
Yesterday, we strolled
together in fantasyland.
I was taken back to
another time of our youth.
A handsome young boy, a
sweet naive girl, holding
hands, loong at each other
with stars in their eyes.
Anticipating tomorrow.
The grassy meadows were
lush and green. Valleys
ablaze of color. Baby
buds yawned, waking up
from their long winters
nap. Began to open their
eyes, as the warmth of
the season penetrated
them.
Petals opened dislaying
a panamara.
You gently touched my
lips, asking me, I agreed.
That day so long ago, I
found my hearts delight.
Knowing this love would
last forever, and it has.

Oh Night Of Delight
Oh night of
delight
you were there
in dreams
fueling my
desires
passionately.
Heard you in
the wind
blowing in my
direction
catching many
echoes
whispering my
name.
Standing in the
shadows
I caught a
glimpse of you
reaching out to
touch
you made our
dreams
come true.
Oh what a night
night of delight.

Can I Forget You?
When I can no longer
depend on my muse
to guide heart and hand.
Pen and paper lying
beside me, not a word
forth coming.
Paper turning yellow
with age, my eyes close
for the last time, I
breathe my final breath
can I forget you?

Until You Were Gone
On this journey
of lifes' secrets
a stain-glass window
cracked.
Dreams were shattered.
I grasped for
your hand, but
it kept slipping away
The winds of
life kept howling
jerking at you until
you were gone.

Loving You
When we met
my world
began
to explode,
inflamed with
your love.
Your mouth
whispered
heavenly
on my lips.
Your arms
provided
warmth
Lying close
to you
I was made
complete.
Threads of
gold and
silver tied
themselves
around my
heart,
holding me
captive.
Loving you
my hearts
delight
Knowing you
an awesome
adventure.

The Touch Of Love Again
When this day began...
I felt sentimental.
Just last night I spent,
Dreaming...
Of you!
And,
Needs released.
So real and believed.
When this day began...
Promises I made,
Never...
To keep myself away,
From showing...
Without you,
I am more complete.
Promises like this,
I can not keep.
Foolish I have been.
Pretending I could end,
My need to love...
And dismisss it.
Foolish I have been.
Pretending I could end,
A loneliness I wish would leave.
But with each dawn,
It awakens me.
When this day began...
Promises I made,
Never...
To keep myself away,
From showing...
Without you,
I am more complete.
Promises like this,
I can not keep.
Since I could never be...
I see,
Alone.
I could never be,
I see...
Someone alone,
Who yearns...
To feel and know,
The touch of love again.

One Rainy Night
One night
the sky began
to darken
thunder crashed
lightening
flashed
the wind blew
violently
disturbing the
calm.
Within a heart
was being
twisted
tearing apart
too many clouds
too much rain
had fallen
a connection
was breaking up
not to be
repaired again.
When the sun
finally appeared
it was late
the damage had
already taken
place
No, nothing would
ever be the same.

Lost In Love (An Acrostic)
Life goes on
Old grows the mind
So does the skin
Things changes with time
In heart love seem to stay alive
Nodding to the memories gone by
Love holds on to the old promises
Old promises hold on to the time
Vows once made hangs by a thread
End smiles to the days when you were mine

I Am Carried Away
In the
hallows
of my
mind
you
exist.
A precious
flower
I ponder
your
loveliness.
A breath
of fresh
air.
softly
touching
my lips
Blowing
over me
cooling
A lovely
blossom
full of
promises
Whispering
sweet words
until I
melt into
you.
Finding
solace
in your
presence
I am
carried
away.

Eyes met, for one brief

All I Want Is You (7" Edit)
You say you want a diamond on a ring of gold
You say you want your story to remain untold
All the promises we made from the
Cradle to the grave
When all I want is you
You say you'll give me a highway with no one on it
Treasure just to look upon it
All the riches in the night
You say you'll give me eyes on a moon of blindness
A river in a time of dryness
A harbour in the tempest
All the promises we make
From the cradle to the grave
When all I want is you
You say you want your love to work out right
To last with me through the night
You say you want a diamond on a ring of gold
Your story to remain untold
Your love not to grow cold
All the promises we break from the
Cradle to the grave
When all I want is you
All I want is you

Changes
Flowers
bloom
displaying
their beauty
then wilts
as the season
changes.
Leaves cling
to the trees
creating shades
protecting from
the scorching
sun.
Snow lying
on the ground
glistening in
the moonlight
such a lovely
aura
as it warms
melting.
A love so warm
and passionate
cools with time.
Life is ever
changing
always revolving
from hot to warm
then cold.

With All My Heart, I Love You
Standing in an open field
Drenched by the rain with only a cap to shield
My whole body shivered, remembering the past
A vivid encounter, hopefully will not last
Saying goodbye was very hard to do
After a long, breathless warm embrace
To the man i have loved many years ago
Our childhood dreams, promises and vows have to go
With all my heart, i love you
With all my strength, i will carry you
These are our promises we hold on to
Our cup of joy filled to the brim overflow
Mountains may walk away, hills may fall into pieces
My love won't walk away from you and will never be broken
Can you see it in my eyes?
it is the eyes of love
i love you, and with all my heart i love only you
If only i have wings to fly,
I'll come and get you without a wink of my eye
I hold on to his promises and vow of undying love
Until we will be seeing back in each others arms
Whispering again those words...
With all my heart..i love you

Promises
=========================================================================
Cheap perfume and painted faces
Fallin' angels fill the places
Where I go when my troubles pull me down
All the lies I know they'll tell me
For awhile I'll be the biggest man in town
Back at home in bed she's cryin'
For her love for me is dyin'
But she'll pray I make it safely through the night
When the mornin' sun starts showin'
To her bedside I'll be goin'
And she'll hold me while I face the mornin' light
And I'll make promises
Promises to change
I'll make her promises
Swear I'll rearrange
And I'll start givin'
All the love she needs
If only she will stay
Once again she'll reassure me
And I believe her love will cure me
And I'll fall aleep with tears on my face
And I know she's just a woman
And her love can't last forever
And someday soon I know she'll leave without a trace
For broken promises
Will tear her dreams apart
Just token promises
Will someday break her heart
And for the last time
She'll hold me when I cry
And while I'm sleepin'
She'll quietly say goodbye
=========================================================================
