Novice
Clear fountains of pure life
Penetrate the hurting with love
My family has died
Clouds drift over the blue sky
Sometimes I am afraid too love
I do not want them to die
It can be a terrible thing to be alone
Why I am here I do not know
I wished I was home or felt at home
I do know there are many like me
There are many hurt and grieving
Many lost and confused
Maybe I am broken for a purpose?
I think Gods love reaches for the hurt
Pride and self-righteousness does nothing
When I contend and try to be right
When I puff up and think I am better
Then I do nothing in Gods love
A friend was over yesterday that had a stroke
He could hardly talk and his right arm shook
Another good friend has cancer
Another friend is dying of alcoholism
His face has blotches
They need nothing except real love
I am the novice

A friend indeed!
I have a friend, a friend in word & a friend indeed.
A friend who loves me with all friends being & I love friend too.
My friend rejuvenates me
A friend of my youth,
A friend indeed!
I have a friend in word, my friend reminds me of my purpose in life
I can exhale with my friend by my side
My friend is good to me
A friend indeed!
When my friend is gone, I miss my friend already
But my friend has gone home because I am home for now
But the truth is our home is in our friendship.
I have a friend, a friend indeed!
My friend in word is my friend indeed and my friend in need.
Friendship is all we need & we have.
I have a friend a friend indeed!

A Real Friend in one's life....
A friend is a tissue when you can't stop crying,
A friend is a shoulder when you feel like dying,
A friend is always there to listen when you have something to say,
A friend is weak when you just need a day,
A friend is a crutch when you have a broken heart,
A friend is a glue when some thing falls a part,
A friend is a phone call when you can't leave your home,
A friend is a when you feel all alone,
A friend is a wing if you want to fly,
A friend is one who understands without knowing why,
A friend is an ear for a secret to tell,
And at last.......
A friend is a love, happiness, care and joy that can never let go in one's life.........

I Need A Friend
I need a friend for sharing, bearing and forgiving everything
I need a friend for solve my problems
I need a friend for wipe my tears
I need a friend for lay on her shoulder
I need a friend for cheer my way
I need a friend for scold, when i did something bad
I need a friend for go wherever we like
I need a friend for do my homework
I need a friend for playing together
I need a friend for my companion
I need a friend for watching movies
I need a friend for chatting
I need a friend for take a part of my life
I need a friend love eachother
I need a friend for love truly
I need a friend for give my pure love
My friend where are you?

I Have A Friend
I have a friend who cannot walk
I have a friend all he does is talk
I have a friend, Philippe is his name
I have a friend and we are just the same
I have a friend he’s seventeen years old
I have a friend who has a heart of gold
I have a friend who would catch me if I fall
It is only that he has no legs at all
I have a friend and when my friend was seven
A car ran over him and he almost went to heaven
I have a friend with a smile that I adore
I have a friend who lives in a house of four
I have a friend his family is his home
I have a friend who dreams of visiting Rome
I have a friend who is still finishing school
Yet some people tell him that for that he is a fool
I have a friend they say he is disabled
He has no legs and for that he is labeled
I have a friend who has a friend
They were made for each other; their love will never end
I have a friend who likes to name the stars
I have a friend and what he hates is cars
I have a friend who’s happier than you and me
I have a friend who’s shown me how happy I can be
I have a friend who’s had his bad times too
I have a friend who’s better than me and you
I have a friend so dear to me and kind
That another one like him I shall never find!

My Best Friend
When everything is wrong I'll come talk to you
You make things alright when I'm feeling blue
You are such a blessing and I wont be messing
with the one thing that brings light to all of my darkness
You are my best friend
and I love you, and I love you
Yes I do
There is no other one that can take your place
I feel happy inside when I see your face
I hope you believe me
Because I speak sincerely
and I mean it when I tell you I need you
You are my best friend
and I love you, and I love you
Yes I do
I'm here right beside you
I will never leave you
and I feel the pain you feel when you start crying
You are my best friend
and I love you, and I love you
Yes I do
You are my best friend
and I love you, and I love you
Yes I do
Yes I do...
Yes I do

Afraid To Love Again
If every time that you got hurt it left a scar
And if every dream you ever had broke your heart
If every time you made a plan the world came to an end
Then you'd know why I'm afraid to love again
If broken dreams are all it seems you've ever known
And hurt's the only thing you can depend upon
And if you should find misery to be your only friend
Then you'd know why I'm afraid to love again
If every time you look up a cloud should hide the sun
Pay dearly for each kindness ever shown to anyone
If everything you try should fail before you can begin
Then you'd know why I'm afraid to love again
Then you'd know why I'm afraid to love again

Just Friends
Just Friends
By: Jean Pullman
We were together because we felt it was right
I dreamt of you every night
Then you said that we were no more
You made feel like crying on the floor
And then said
CHORUS
Maybe we should be just friends
Because I feel barely anything there
Maybe we should be just friends
Because you were scared
Maybe we should be just friend
So I couldn’t hurt you too
Maybe we should be just friends
I know you see that I am meant for you
But you said
Were just friends
I ran from school and went to park
Where I sat on a swing aching from broken heart
Because you said I love you yesterday
And then you simply walked away
You did what every other guy did
I blamed myself for being so stupid
I wanted to go deaf when you said
CHORUS
Afraid to love
You’re always running away
Afraid to love
You think I’ll be the same
Afraid to love
From being hurt deep within
Afraid to love
You won’t let anyone else in
Afraid to love
I’m gonna show you that I’m real
And you’ll feel
No need to be afraid of love
So my goal is to get you back
I will make you feel like you’ve had a heart attaché
When you see me walking through the door
I know you want to make me yours
And we will be way more then
Just friends
Oh yeah
Just friends
Gonna be more then just friends

Love Is
What is love, Love can't see you but you can't see it
Love is a sneaky thing I guess sort of slick
Love can hurt and Love can heal
Love can be born and Love can kill
Love has won and Love has lost
Love can catch and Love can toss
Love can stand and Love can fall
Love is small and Love is tall
Love is right and Love is wrong
Love is weak but Love is strong
Love is up and Love is down
Love can smile and Love can frown
Love is good and Love can be bad
Love is quite and Love can brag
Love is a little and Love is a lot
Love contiues and Love stops
Love can hope and Love can dream
Love can talk and Love can sing
Love can be a word or Love can be a ring
Love can be nothing or Love can be everything
So where is this thing we call Love
I dont know the only real love we have comes from above...

But I can't help it
My mind says move on
My heart lags behind
But I don't love you any more
I'm so insecure
Never knew that love did this
Ooh, ooh
I can't remember the last time I felt this way
About somebody
You've done something to my mind
And I can't control it
But I don't love you any more
Yes I do, I think
Loving you is wrong baby

Never knew that love could hurt like this
Never thought I would but I got dissed
Makes me feel so sad and hurt inside
Feel embarrased so I want to hide
Silly me I thought your love was true
Change my name to Silly E. Badu
Before I heal, it's gonna be a while
I know it's gonna be a while, chile

I hope it's not too late
Too late, too late, too late
Feeling insecure
Love has got me sore
I don't want no more
Oh, oh
It's too late, oh, oh ooh, ooh
I'm sorry I love you
At first we was cool
You told me you loved me too, ooh
And then you lost your love
Oh then you lost your love
And then you lost your love
You wanted me to go away
But I can't go
See I can't leave, it's too late
I can't leave, it's too late
I can't leave, it's too late
I can't leave, it's too late
Just make love to me
Just one more time and then you'll see
I can't believe I made a desparate plea
What's with me, meee, me ye-ah, no, oh
You see I can't leave, it's too late
I can't leave, it's too late
Don't you know, I can't leave, it's too late
Can't go no where, no
It's too late

It's too late
It's too late yeah
Come on babe
Don't you want be strong with me
You told me we had a family
Want to run to me when you're down and low
But times get tough and there you go
Out the door, you wanna run again
Open my arms and you come back in
Wanna run cause you say that you were afraid, but I'm your friend
Never knew what a friendship was
Never knew how to really love
You can't be what I need you to
And I don't know what is up with you
I know our love will never be the same
But I can't stand these growing pains

All In The Name Of Love
(coverdale/vandenberg)
Some people tell me
The blues aint bad,
But, Ive never know anything
Make me feel so sad...
Running on empty, hurting to the core,
When everything dont mean nothing any more...
From a distance
Every little thing looks fine,
But, the closer you get
You see the make up,
Cracked and lined...
Somewhere theres a rainbow
With a pot of gold,
But, by the time you get there
Its been taken and sold...
So I keep saying, baby...
All in the name of love,
Its all in the name of love, my friend,
All in the name of love
We all suffer in the end...
In my room
There are no shadows in the wall,
cause I closed up the window
So no light gets in at all.
Its a bad situation,
With no end in sight,
A heartache deep as the ocean
And darker than the night...
So I keep saying to you, baby,
All in the name of love,
Its all in the name of love, my friend,
All in the name of love
We all suffer in the end...
With no one to lean on
You pray to the lord above,
But, we keep hurting each other
In the name of love...
All in the name of love...
With no one to lean on
You pray to the lord above,
But, we keep hurting each other
In the name of love...
All in the name of love,
Its all in the name of love, my friend,
All in the name of love
We all suffer in the end...
All in the name of love,
Its all in the name of love, my friend,
All in the name of love
We all suffer in the end...
All in the name of love...

Afraid To Love
By: Jean Pullman
We are so perfect it’s like you were made for me
But she hurt you so bad and you feel like you’re hurt for eternity
You don’t know what is true
You’re afraid I’ll hurt you too
I wish we could be
But you’re
CHORUS
Afraid to love
You’re always running away
Afraid to love
You think I’ll be the same
Afraid to love
From being hurt deep within
Afraid to love
You won’t let anyone else in
Afraid to love
I’m gonna show you that I’m real
And you’ll feel
No need to be afraid of love
We have been friends for so long
I was there when she did you wrong
She said that she didn’t love you
Letting you know that her feelings were through
So I’ll take my time
And I’ll make you realize
That me and you wouldn’t turn sour
I’ll be there no matter the hour
I just wish you weren’t
CHORUS
Afraid to love
You’re always running away
Afraid to love
You think I’ll be the same
Afraid to love
From being hurt deep within
Afraid to love
You won’t let anyone else in
Afraid to love
I’m gonna show you that I’m real
And you’ll feel
No need to be afraid of love
So I will do whatever I have to
In order to get another chance with you
We’ll hang out and maybe then you’ll see
How much me and you were meant to be
And you no longer will be afraid to love

Go Home, Girl
(a. alexander)
Well, me and frank were the best of friends
And our friendship will never end
But it would hurt him so for him to know
That Im in love with his girlfriend
Now, the love of a girl and the love of a friend
Are two things you cant compare
Though my heart will ache I will let it break
cause I know that it just aint fair
So go on home girl, lets call it a night
You better go home girl, this just aint right
But before you go I want you to know
That I love you, yes I do
And though it breaks my heart for us to part
Still I know frank loves you too
Well, you say that a we can make him see
We have a love thats really real
But I think that he is just like me
And I dont know just how hed feel
Darling, people know it would hurt him so
If you told him that it must end
And I could never hold the love I stole
From a man I call my best friend
Go on home girl, you better go home, girl
Go on home, you better move on
Me and frank been friends for so long
And our friendship is really strong
He gives me his car to go for a ride
Never knows how long Ill be gone
Well, Im trying to forget all the things that weve done
While frank is just a-waiting back home
Girl you cant go ride with me anymore
Thats the way its got to be from now on
Go on home!
Uhn, hun. better go home, girl
Uhn, hun. now you better move on, girl
Uhn, hun. better go home, girl
Uhn, hun. you better move on, girl

My Trust Inside My Love
A BOND OF TRUST, SWEEP BY YOU
CAPTURED BY DESCRIPTION
SO FORM OF VOODOO
UNIQUE BY JUSTICATION
MUSIC TO MY SONG
TOURING THE WORLD
WITH YOU HOME ALL ALONE
YOUR COLLECTIVE AFFINITY
A LOST UPON THIS TRIP
DEVASTATED MY SOUL
LIPS I CANNOT KISS
YOU DESERVE THE VERY BEST
THESE LONG HOURS I WORK
UPON MY RETURN HOME
YOUR FACE DISPLAYED THE HURT
JOIN ME IN MY TRAVELS
I BEGGED OF YOU TO COME
BUT YOU FELT YOUR PLACE WAS AT HOME
OUR HEARTS REMAINS AS ONE
I’LL CALL YOU ON THE PHONE
ONLY THE HEAVENS ABOVE
SEEN MY TRUST INSIDE MY LOVE
GUARDED AS AN ANGEL
TIL DEATH HE WAS THERE
MY BEST FRIEND WATCHED OVER YOU
I HAD NOTHING IN THE WORLD TO FEAR
YOU BAFFLED ME BABY
AS IF THE PROBLEM WAS MY JOB
SUSPICION MADE ME REALIZE
MY HEART WAS BEING ROBBED
UPON MY NEXT RETURN
ANTICIPATING YOUR SURPRISE
AS I WALKED INTO OUR BEDROOM
MY HEART COULD HAVE DIED
LOVE HIT LIKE A HAMMER
MY THOUGHT’S SHE COULD HAVE READ
SHE AND MY BEST FRIEND
MAKING LOVE IN MY BED
I COULDN’T DESCRIBE THE FEELING
MY HEART MORE THAN CRUSHED
FORBIDDEN TO LOVE AGAIN
MY HEART IMPAIRED TO TRUST
AT TIMES I SHOULD HAVE WONDERED
SOMEHOW I SHOULD HAVE KNOWN
PRETENDING TO BE MY FRIEND
MY WOMAN WAS HIS OWN
HE WAS MY TRUST
SHE WAS MY LOVE
NEVER THOUGHT I WOULD SEE
MY TRUST INSIDE MY LOVE…

When You Love, Love
when you love
love, do not think of any other thing
like a disease
HIV, cervical cancer, hepatitis
STD,
when you love
love with all your heart
kiss the leprosy in her heart
hug the virus on her breast
love, love, love with all your heart
make love with love
and savor the moment that love has offered
every drop...every moment...every ecstasy...
ever
when i love, i always love, i set aside the mind
i take everything at heart
i refuse to think
about the hurt
the future mess
the possibility of errors
i am blind
i just touch
and feel my way all through this maze
and when love is gone
if ever be
i take all the hurt, the blame, the regrets
it is love in me, it is this self-annhilation
this dying upon oneself for the other
this death
that gives my redemption, my resurrection
it is love
and not the thought of love
the love that is real that dies upon itself
only to be born again

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

Gods Mistake
Have a friend, calls me up
Says hello, then hangs up
He must have read my mind
These are the days of a diffrent paradigm
Maybe once, even twice
He said God does not play dice
Yet if hes everywhere
Hes in casinos with aces to spare
Oh, love is gods mistake
Oh, love is gods mistake
Ours is not to reason why
As we fall from way up high
Into the water
Like a lamb to the slaughter
Even now, gods mistake
Sets us up for one more heartbreak
God you look mighty fine
Dressed as the devil in a cosmic pantomime
Oh, love is gods mistake
Oh, love is gods mistake
Never was so much at stake
Oh, love is gods mistake

Did You Ever Love Someone?
Did you ever love somebody?
So much that the earth moved
Did you ever love somebody?
Even though it hurt to
Did you ever love somebody?
Nothing else your heart could do
Did you ever love somebody?
Who never knew
Did you ever lay your head down
On the shoulder of a good friend
And then had to look away somehow
Had to hide the way you felt for them
Have you ever prayed the day would come
Youd hear them say they feel it too
Did you ever love someone?
Who never knew
I do.
And if you did
Well you know Id understand
I could, I would
More than anybody can
Did you ever love somebody?

Tonight I'm Yours
(rod stewart/kevin savigar, jimmy cregan, 1981)
Yeah
I can tell by the look in your eyes
You've been bored for a long, long time.
You need love and so do i
Let's turn it all around.
I don't want an everlasting thing,
I don't care if i see you again
So grab your coat and honey tell your friends
You won't be home,
You won't be home,
You won't be home.
Tonight i'm yours,
Do anything that you want me to
Don't hurt me, don't hurt me
Tonight i'm yours,
Do anything 'cos i want you to.
Just don't hurt me, baby.
Yeah
I don't really want to challenge you
Marry you or remember you.
I just wanna make love to you
For twenty four hours or more.
Or more
I'm only looking for a fantasy,
An interlude from reality
Don't want nobody tryin' to rescue me
So rock me babe,
Rock me babe,
Rock me, rock me.
Tonight i'm yours,
Do anything that you want me to
Don't hurt me, don't hurt me
Tonight i'm yours,
Do anything 'cos i want you to.
I want you to
And tomorrow morning we won't cry
You go your way, honey, i'll go mine.
I'm the one who didn't waste your time
Remember me this way.
And if you never see my face again,
Think of me as a permanent friend,
The one who loved you like a hurricane
Then disappeared,
Disappeared,
Disappeared.
Tonight i'm yours,
Do anything that you want me to
Don't hurt me, don't hurt me
Tonight i'm yours,
Do anything 'cos i want you to.
Don't hurt me, don't hurt me
Tonight i'm yours,
Do anything that you want me to
Don't hurt me, don't hurt me
Tonight i'm yours
Do anything 'cos i want you to
Don't hurt me, don't hurt me
Tonight i'm yours,
Do anything that you want me to
Don't hurt me, don't hurt me
Tonight i'm yours
Do anything 'cos i want you to
Don't hurt me, don't hurt me
Tonight you're mine,
Tonight you're mine
Do anything,
Do anything
Tonight you're mine,
Tonight you're mine
Tonight, always tonight you're mine.
Do anything that you,
Do anything that you,
Do anything that you want me to,
You want me to, you want me to,
You want me, want me , want me,
Just do anything
Anything your heart desires, babe.
