If I Knew What Tomorrow Held In Store For Me
If I knew what tomorrow held in store for me,
My kept wishes and hopeful dreams...
Would not stop my wanting,
To adorn them with additional accessories.
Since whatever I receive has to be customized,
With touches to confirm what comes is 'indeed' mine!

Where Is Tomorrow
Written by orbison/dees.
Where is tomorrow? an island of dreams.
Where is tomorrow? flying on golden wings,tomorrow.
Where is tomorrow? the end of time.
Where is tomorrow.youre no longer mine.

Tomorrow,tomorrow.when tomorrow comes,
Then Ill stop loving you,tomorrow.

Gone losting stardust,hiding from the dawn.

Whats Going On
Do you see heaven
Like I do
Or is it just me
Wanting you
Tonight Im special
Like no one else
I hope you need me
For yourself
Does it make you happy
To be so free
The times we shared
You loving me
And as you leave
And walk away
Your eyes they tell me
Someday youll stay
Whats going on here
What must we fear
To live in this fantasyland in your mind
Wholl carry the load
For dreams left untold
Can you live in this world all mine
I would walk this journey
To say goodbye
To have you close would
Make me high
All the good things
That made you see
It was the strong thing
Being with me
Chorus
Just look high above
And youll see where we should be
And if tomorrow makes
If tomorrow breaks us
Then you stand still and ill
Show you me
Like you never knew
Or is it just me
Wanting you
So as you leave
And walk away
I knew youd come back
Now lets play
Chorus

We Just Know Love
You do not know my fantasy is you!
Unbroken in my repeated dreams.
Invited as I lay to sleep.
If you knew your lips were kissed,
And clutched against me pillowed.
Reminisced as we held close!
You would know.
If you knew...
You would be here embraced with me.
I am here!
Oh,
You do not know how I am here...
To receive as an allowing will believe.
And I wish to see...
To become a vital part of this existence.
You do not know my fantasy is you!
Unbroken in my repeated dreams.
Invited as I lay to sleep.
If you knew,
No love would be feared.
If you knew.
If you knew,
Love would be near to us trusted.
To show,
We just know love.
If you knew,
This love would be clear.
If you knew.
Like I do.
Me and you would be near.

Tomorrow Is My Turn
Though some may reach for the stars
Others will end behind bars
What the future has in store no one ever knows before
Yet we would all like the right to find the key to success
That elusive ray of light that will lead to happiness
Tomorrow is my turn
No more doubts no more fears
Tomorrow is my turn
When my luck is returning
All these years I?e been learning to save fingers from burning
Tomorrow is my turn
No more doubts no more fears
Tomorrow is my turn to receive without giving
Make life worth living
Now it? my life I? living
My only concern for tomorrow is my turn
Now the summer is gone, there? another to come
You can? stop years from drifting by even if you want to try
Though time may help you forget all that has happened before
But honey it? too late to regret what is gone will be no more
Tomorrow is my turn
When my luck is returning
All these years I?e been learning to save fingers from burning
Tomorrow is my turn
No more doubts no more fears
Tomorrow is my turn to receive without giving
Make life worth living
Now it? my life I? living
My only concern for tomorrow is my turn

These Dreams
She lies on the bed
With her hands in her head
And she screams
He gets a kick out of losing the plot so it seems
He makes you all laugh so she's the one
Doing harm
But how can you fight when she's not
The one under his arm
These dreams have let you down
Take it don't break it just turn it around
These dreams won't let you down
You never stopped loving his misfortunate
Lazy ways
All the memories that you should've had
Are a cabaret haze
There's just a hole where you know he
Should've been
There's no one worse off than you
When you can't describe what you've seen
These dreams have let you down
Take it don't break it just it turn around
These dreams won't let you down
Where do you go when you're all alone
In your bed
Do you cry in your sleep cos it's
Better unsaid
Have you forgotten your past because
That's how it seems
Is it too hard to think so you edit
Your dreams
And play them back again and again
These dreams have let you down
Take it don't break it just turn it around
These dreams won't let you down
These dreams have let you down
Take it don't break it just turn it around
These dreams won't let you down
You've got tomorrow tomorrow
You've got tomorrow tomorrow
You've got tomorrow tomorrow
You've got tomorrow tomorrow
You've got tomorrow tomorrow

Day's
Yesterday It has came and gone
Once again secretly it has left us behind
Now all we have is regrets and past wishes
And the many dreams we never did find.
Those days are now part of our memory
While we might think back to why didn't I
But then remorse we will always remember
While we always question ourselves just why.
Tomorrow it will never be here
As tomorrow will always be tomorrow
That is were we put our dreams and our hopes
And where we escape from our sadness and sorrow.
It is the days that we do dread
And the days that we hope and pray to arrive
Where love is held and deadlines our met
But some how they never do survive.
Today is all that we are guaranteed
As we are promised no future or even past
We are here now so we much cherish that
As in the end that is all that might ever last.
We must live and learn by the day
So we must enjoy every second that we live
Never to put off till tomorrow do it today
As today is the only day that we hold captive.

If Tomorrow
We sit in silent dreams
away from our reality
dreaming our wishes,
our hopes and our prayers
wondering if tomorrow
the world will stop and realise
our wishes hopes and prayers.
We ask so little to be granted,
in the whole scheme of things
and allowing us just one
who know,
could fulfil our lives.

That Person You Are
Sometimes I sit with wishes,
Wanting you to be someone different...
Than the person you are.
I have my fantasies of you being,
Warm and romantic.
And you finding me...
A delicious meal to eat.
And when I pray before I go to sleep,
I pray for someone other than you...
To show up in my dreams.
Someone that has your qualities...
But without your moods and distant attitudes.
Sometimes I sit with wishes,
Wanting you to be someone different...
Than the person you are.
And yet that person you are,
Is the one I fell in love with.

Be Hopeful
Hopeful
Be hopeful
Want to be successful
Saw good seeds
For we are cursed and blessed
By our own deeds
Being hopeful is to over come
And encouragement
Becomes our strength
For what we could become here
Unless we over come our fear
The wind blowing
Here and there
Life becomes so unfair
All you need to do
Is to be hopeful
Hopeful
Be hopeful

Soul Creator
Do as you must,
To accomplish that
Which fulfills your desires.
God eventually validates all deeds...
To evaluate them according to His wishes!
And not as you choose Him to do.
Or to gain attention.
Sought to adorn with additional blessings received.
From the moment of your birth,
You have been watched.
He rules without need of accomplices.
To do what He does alone.
And at His best as our Soul Creator.
Leaving many to live their whole lives...
Not 'getting it',
As He alone can solely give as it is 'given'.

A Better Future
Please dont tear this world asunder
Please take back
This fear were under
I demand a better future
Or I might just stop wanting you
I might just stop wanting you
Please make sure we get tomorrow
All this pain and all the sorrow
I demand a better future
Or I might just stop needing you
I might just stop needing you
Give my children sunny smile
Give them moon and cloudless sky
I demand a better future
Or I might just stop loving you,
Loving you, loving you
When we talk, we talk to you
When we walk, we walk to you
From factory to field
How many tears must fall
Down there below
Nothing is moving
Oo-o
I might just stop wanting you
I might just stop needing you
I might just stop loving you
I demand a better future
I demand a better future
I demand a better future
For I might just stop loving you,
Loving you, loving you
I demand a better future
I demand a better future
I demand a better future
For I might just stop loving you, loving you, loving you
I demand a better future

I Cant Stop Loving You
I cant stop loving you
Since I made up my mind
To live in memories
Of a lonesome time
I cant stop wanting you
Its useless to say
So I just live my life
In dreams of yesterday
Those happy hours
Oh, those happy hours
That we once knew
Oh, that we once knew
So long ago
So long ago, baby
Still make me blue
Yeah, still make me blue
They say the time
They say that time
Heals a broken heart
Heal a broken heart
But time has stood still
But time has stood still
Since weve been apart
Oh, since weve been apart
I cant stop loving
Since I made up my mind
Living in, live, live, live, live, live, live in memories
Of a lone, lonesome time
I cant stop wanting you
Its useless to say
So I just live my life
In dreams of yesterday
I cant stop loving you
Since I made up my mind
Oh, to live in memory, baby
Of a lonesome time
I cant stop wanting you
Its useless to say
So I just live my life
In dreams of yesterday
Of yesterday.

I can stop lying
I can stop punching my own face
I can stop stealing money
I can stop hating my own heart
I can do it
Because of you
I can stop scratching up my cheeks
I can stop drinking so much
I can stop wanting to kill myself
I can stop wanting your perfect heart
I can do it
Because of you
I can start listening
I can say Hi
I can feel something good

I Cant Stop Loving You
I cant stop loving you
By don gibson
Those happy hours that we once knew,
Though long ago, still make me blue.
They say that time heals a broken heart.
But time has stood still since weve been apart.
I cant stop loving you
So Ive made up my mind
To live in memory
Of old lone-some times.
I cant stop wanting you
Its use-less to say.
So Ill just live my life
In dreams of yesterday.
Those happy hours that we once knew,
Though long ago, still make me blue.
They say that time heals a broken heart.
But time has stood still since weve been apart.
I cant stop loving you,
Theres no use to try.
Pretend thers some one new;
I cant live a lie.
I cant stop wanting you
The way that I do.
Thers only been one love for me,
That one love is you.

This 'Event' Is Not Customized
If you do not like or enjoy,
What is being offered...
Stop returning to the buffet.
What has been dished,
Is it!
Your complaints,
Are not going to change...
The arrangement of the selections.
If you do not like or enjoy,
What is being offered...
Stop returning to the buffet.
Others have done it,
And have successfully moved on their way.
No one but you,
Has suggested to the cook...
What added ingredient to use,
To sweeten or suit a particular taste.
If what you perceive is not happening for you...
Do not wait to be force fed.
This 'event' is not customized,
For apologies served to render.
Not here!
Today...
Or on tomorrow's menu!

The Cinderella Dance
our bodies close
but always wanting to be closer to you
never getting enough
always wanting more
always wanting to give more
both of us from two different worlds
so this couldn’t be
this must be some kind of dream
another one of my fantasies
so this cant be real
but I feel your touch
I hear your heart that was acting like a ghost to mine
beating in sequence to mine
acting like a musical but not louder then a pindropp
with the smell of sweet sweat on your chest
lingering in the wind
that gently is pushing the cloud I was standing on
within your arms
away to a place where noone but us matters
where time stands still
a place where I can get lost in your eyes
a place even for a few seconds
I can be your’s and you mine
as I look into your eyes I see someone who touches my life
someone inside of you
yes the person I see in your eyes I’m in love with
and I see the man that loves me
so take my hand
help me out of the darkened shadows of my past
that have seamed so swiftly caught up to me
wont you take my hand and help me into the sunlight
wont you just stop pretending
when I can see with my heart that the man inside of you
loves me for me
as we float with each beat of the song
I feel your breath softly tickle my lips
I cant hear the music now
all I hear is your charming voice
I don’t see any other person everyone else has simply disappeared
where all I see is you and I
the song comes to an end
I can hardly stand nor less walk
my knee’s could be made out of jellow
and wouldn’t had been able to tell the difference
I watched you walk off
with a little more of my heart
But knowing even if you knew I would do anything for
just a little piece of your heart
you still wouldn’t love me because
in the end I’m the nobody
and your the prince of a far away kingdom

Extendibly Kept
Greatness declared,
Seems almost too simple to say.
Too simple to adorn that which isn't...
With such a high placed esteem.
Greatness just to say,
With few ways of it expressed.
Seems as if a parody,
Of what isn't there with wishes it could be.
A greatness achieved and extendibly kept,
Takes a constant self reflection.
And a careful watching of one's steps.
A greatness achieved and extendibly kept,
Takes repeated self examination.
With a wanting always to do one's best.
Greatness declared,
Seems almost too simple to say.
Too simple to adorn that which isn't...
With such a high placed esteem.
Greatness just to say,
With few ways of it expressed.
Seems as if a parody,
Of what isn't there with wishes it could be...
Forever peceived and to others believed.

Forgive Me God
God forgive me for wanting his wife
And the possessions that he has and own
Forgive me please for wanting his life
As I have nothing and I feel so alone.
I live my life through my dreams and lies
I have nothing and I want another mans prize.
God forgive me for wanting to be like him
I am a man and I have nothing at all
Once though I had something but now my life is grim
And a job long ago that I can still barely recall.
But for him and his life their is jealousy
As I leave nothing behind, but he’ll leave a legacy.
God forgive me for the life that I live
And forgive me for wanting to be someone else
Though for greatness I have no motive
And in life I seek no riches or wealth.
All I want is to live off the dreams of others
I want to be nourished and cared for as by my mother.
God forgive me for something that I am not
And please forgive me for something that I will never be
As other men’s dreams and wishes I had sought
But for me I know it will never become my reality.
So I pretend and pretend as I put on my act
What other men own and have I certainly do lack
God forgive me for wearing the clothes of another man
Please forgive me as you listen to my prayer
As I am not happy with the way that I am
Because when I am around no one sees me there.
But then for me one day my judgement will await
And then God; will I walk or crawl to my final fate.

Lord Of Almighty God
You are the most powerful one of all,
Always telling your people to tell other people about you,
Wanting everyone to stop the heatred,
Wanting people to stop fighting,
Wanting people to worship you and not other adols,
Forever loving you,
Reading the Bible,
Writting music about you,
Giving lessons to the younger gernerations,
Never wanting people to stop believing in you
