I Promise
You promised me heaven
but I didn't see the moon
and the stars.
You promised me eternity
but you gave me
a little of your time.
Now, I promise to come back
when you give me heaven
with the moon and the stars.
I promise to stay by your side
when you give me the whole
....of your time.

I Promise You
i promise you
when there are only three stars in heaven
when the moon fades behind the clouds of darkness
i promise you
i shall give all these three stars for you
to light your way and marvel you
till you meet your destiny
i shall have none
i never liked one.

Rings Around The Moon
Rings around the moon
(written by b. r. & m. gibb)
If youre lonely in the black of night
If you call me, Ill be there
I was falling and you helped me get it right
And I thank you girl, and I thank you
And I pray for the sign
And I wont be too late
If you just come down
I can look you in the eye
I can tell you that I love you
And my love will never die
And its time that you know
Just how far I mean to go
We fly rings around the moon
We fly rings around the moon
We fly rings around the moon
We fly rings around the moon
Come tomorrow, candle burns
And I wake up by your side
All my sorrow, you made it disappear
And I thank you, and I thank you
And I lay down my life
And I wont be alone
If you just take time
And be sure of who you are
We can take it up to heaven
We can walk amongst the stars
And I know if you stay
I will never turn away
We fly rings around the moon
We fly rings around the moon
We fly rings around the moon
We fly rings around the moon
And I pray for the sign
And I wont be too late
If you just take time
And be sure of who you are
We can take it up to heaven
We can walk amongst the stars
And I know if you stay
I will never turn away
We fly rings around the moon
We fly rings around the moon
We fly rings around the moon
We fly rings around the moon

Come on and look me in the face
Cuz I can tell that somethin

Baby just remember I gave you my heart
Aint no one gonna tear us apart
He could promise the moon
And the stars above
Even if he promised me the world
Just remember Im forever your gurl
He could promise the world
You gotta remember

Honey listen to me
Your love is all I need
You should know that I dont need nothin
That money can buy

So if a boy were to come along
And try to make me leave you
(girl Id go out of my mind)
Thered be no need to worry
Im tellin you why
(I need to hear that you really love me)
Baby dont you know that I love you
And Id never put nobody above you
He could promise the moon and the stars above
Even if he promised me the world
Just remember Im forever your girl
He could promise the world
You gotta remember
Im forever your girl
Im forever your baby
Just remember Im forever your girl
He could promise the world
You gotta remember
Im forever your girl
When the mountains crumble into the sea
Thats the day someonell come
Between you and me
Baby just remember I gave you my heart
(tell me) aint no one gonna tear us apart
Baby he could promise me diamonds
Even if he promised me pearls
Honey you know I aint lyin
Listen as I tell it to the world

The Moon, The Stars, And Me
Tonight i feel a chill in the air
As cold as that look on your face
I hear what you're saying but coming from you
Goodbye seems so out of place
Now how can you stand there and honestly say
There never wee any real promises made
Chorus:
The moon is my witness
The stars will agree
They all heard you promise
You'd always love me
I know that it's true
But it's hard to believe
You lied to the moon
The stars and me
And what about all of those warm tender nights
Did they mean nothing to you
And where are the feelings i thought that we shared
Or have you forgotten them too
Did you think i could just put your memory behind
When your words are still so very clear in my mind
Chorus:
The moon is my witness
The stars will agree
They all heard you promise
You'd always love me
I know that it's true
But it's hard to believe
You lied to the moon
The stars and me
The moon is my witness
The stars will agree
They all heard you promise
You'd always love me
I know that it's true
But it's hard to believe
You lied to the moon
The stars and me
I know that it's true
But it's hard to believe
You lied to the moon
The stars and me
You lied

Whenever Forever Comes
Whenever forever comes, when darkness shall hide the sun
Ill still be shining with love for you
When glory bells chime, my love will ring true
Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my love will be yours always
Whenever forever comes, when all things are said and done
Ill still be feeling the same way I do
Ill be there for you and still wanting you
God gave you to me, and me to you
And you will still be the one whenever forever comes
Well float on a cloud through eternity
Youll gather the stars, youll give them to me
Ill give you the moon and well replace the sun
Whenever forever comes, whenever forever comes
What would I have ever done had I not had you to love?
Youve given me more than I ever dreamed
Loving you more every day, so it seems
Greater than all other loves I have seen
Its essence will linger on whenever forever comes
Well float on a cloud through eternity
Youll gather the stars, youll give them to me
Ill give you the moon and well replace the sun
Whenever forever comes, whenever forever comes

Give Me Your Love
Baby why do you not love me
Why do you not see me in the light that I see you in
Dont you ever need me in the still of the night
Ive been there in your shoes
Feeling strong, feeling innocence
Nothing short of a miracle could make it make sense
Oh darling
Chorus:
I gave you the moon, the stars above
You think you would give me your love
Came in like the tide, rose up like the sun
You think you would give me your love
I know all thats in your rulebook
I took more than one look
And I know you are the proud type
But I hate game playing, yes I know how to win
But its not fair to me
You should move cause youre wanting to
Not because I fly
Can you only view your dreams when theyre
Up there in the sky
Oh, darlin...
Chorus:
I gave you the moon, the stars above
You think you would give me your love
Oh, darling, yes you would
Came in like the tide, rose up like the sun
You think you would give me your love
Chorus
I gave you the moon, the stars above
You think you would give me your love
Come on, give it to me
Came in like the tide, rose up like the sun
You think you would give me your love
Oh, give me, give me, give me, give me
The stars above
You think you would give me your love
Your love, your love, your love, your love, love
Came in like the tide, rose up like the sun
You think you would give me your love

My Promise To Write For You....
i promised you
day and night
i shall write
to keep it right
this promise is
a rock
no river shall
mock
this promise is a vine
it shall climb pillars and
cover walls and
windows
this promise is my sky
you can see beyond it
in your nights
you shall gather my stars

Promises
I promised myself, in the morning to be good until the night
but my willpower, it was lacking and the cake was in my sight.
I promised myself in the evening, I'd abstain from typing texts
when lying on the sofa while he was looking vexed.
I promised myself to stop swearing but much to my disgust
I blurted out the naughty words when I was feeling rough.
I promised to keep my promises but all too soon I failed
so I'm promising never to promise, to promise myself again.

1st Anniversary!
1st anniversary
I thank god with all my heart today,
For sending u to me one day.
You breezed in my life as a bout of fresh air
With your smile and charm so rare.
You didn’t promise me the moon,
Neither did u promise me a life on stars,
But you promised me a heart.
A heart full of love and compassion
And to love me with all your passion.
You showed me the way to love in life
And I gladly became your wife.
Now life is some thorns and not only roses,
We have fights in daily doses.
But no matter what happens,
We’ll always stick together,
It’s not my desire or a misconception,
We’re made for each other to perfection.
365 days with you have been wonderful,
And the rest of our life will be beautiful.
It’s neither an idea nor a prayer,
It’s a promise which will never break.
Happy Anniversary!

The Stars And The Moon
Sitting down on a bench outside my residence,
I could see the stars far away in heaven;
It seems to me like,
The stars are spelling out my name.
Over here in Africa,
I keep on wondering about the nature of things;
The very patterns of the Creator's mind which,
Is yet to be understood by many!
At times it is very easy to see the stars up there,
But at times too there are no stars at all! !
How far are they, if i may ask?
How big are they, viewing from my compound?
This makes me wonder about the stars at night.
Oh creation, why has it taken us such a longer time?
We still don't understand many of your wonders;
Are we clever to see or, too blind to see?
I don't even understand some of your myths.
Like the mystic cloud of the air is,
My delight of the realms to write this muse;
There are days that i could see the Stars but,
The Moon takes over at times.
The very moon-light that helps us in the villages,
The very time to gather around by the fire side;
To listen to stories and folklore tales like,
The tales by the moon-light as the saying goes.
The 'Kwaku Ananse' stories and,
That of 'Mr. Tortoise' stories from our Elders.
Sitting on a bench outside in Africa,
I could see the stars spell out my name;
Lovely Stars of my heart,
My candle is yet to burn out;
At times, i do see the Moon as well.
My state of heart is for you oh Moon!
One day, i will visit you up there;
Directional moon to my soul,
How sound is your hospitality out there?
In my viewing views, i could see you up there;
In my wondering of things, there you are!
Oh, the Stars and the Moon out there;
Greetings from me to you all.

Because You Are (from Album, Like Love is True)
Because you are to me everything
I am here still to give
Because you to my heart still sing
I'll reach my goal and live
Every promise shall become someday
Full of sunshine in the sky
Clear the mists of yesteryears away
Reaching wonders that are high
Give me something for a moment's while
Love that is near and much like this
Filling my thoughts with its versatile
A smiling face and the truest kiss
Because you are to me everything
Like moon and the stars where they play
The pearls on heaven's nightly string
That twinkles in sights so faraway
Every promise shall become someday
Full of sunshine in the sky
Clear the mists of yesteryears away
Reaching wonders wherever they lie

A Long, Long Time Ago
(odette quesada)
We used to be one
I can remember when our hearts were very young
You said our love would be forever
But that was such a long, long time ago
A long, long time ago
Time and again
I still remember day after day
When youd hold me close to you
But they are just a part of yesterday
Such a long, long time ago
Why did it ever have to be this way?
You promised me the moon, the sun, the stars above
How come you suddenly ceased to look my way?
Tell me the truth that you are certain of
Look at me now
The girl you once loved
Look at me now
Grown up but still in love with you
Although its such a long, long time ago
Such a long, long time ago
Why did it ever have to be this way?
You promised me the moon, the sun, the stars above
How come you suddenly ceased to look my way?
Tell me the truth that you are certain of
Look at me now
The girl you once loved
Look at me now
Grown up but still in love with you
Although its such a long, long time ago
Such a long, long time ago

Peanuts And Promises
You promised me the world, the sun and stars.
You promised me a journey straight to Mars.
You promised me you'd catch the moon,
And present it to me on a spoon.
You promised me a mansion large
With numerous cars in the huge garage.
As our minds surveyed the rolling fields,
You promised me that they would yield
Equine, Canine, Feline friends,
To walk beside us to the end.
When you saw your promises turn to snow
In summer sun to melt and go,
In rivulets along life's lane
Despairingly you spoke my name.
In torment did you turn and say
"I promised you all beauteous days.
All my promises did through our lives wend.
And I gave you just "peanuts" in the end"
I smiled at you so tenderly
As we sat together knee to knee.
I told you what you did not know
That promises are so; just so.
Our wishes for our loved ones true,
But all I need, is you; just you.

Walk This Earth With Your Hands In Mine
Don't ever let go,
Don't ever give in!
Hold me close,
Hold me tight,
Hold me every day,
Hold me ever night,
Tickle me,
Squeeze me,
Cuddle with me,
Love me forever,
Love me always,
Take my hand in marriage, and life,
Take my hand in barring our children,
Take my hand in Good and bad times,
Take my hand in sickness, health, and death,
Take my hand in Heaven,
Take my hand for all eternity!
You will always be my goddess,
You will always be the hottest,
You will always be my sweet heart,
You will always be my baby!
I sware by the moon and the sun!
earth and the sky!
Heaven and hell!
That I will always love you!
I will never let go!
I will never give in!
I will hold you when you cry!
I will hold you through the good and bad!
I will hold you in sickness, health, and death,
I will take your hand in marrige and life,
I will take your hand while baring our children,
I will take your hand in heaven,
I will take your hand for all eternity!
Take my hand Through the journey of love!
And I'll be right by your side holding your hand through it all!
I promise!

We Love You
Weve got to get a message to the stars above
Like radios in heaven hearing just enough
And every single tear drop along the way
We put them in our pockets for a rainy day
But here we are in truoble
Like we always are
Just praying for a mriacle
And reaching for stars
We love you
Would die for you
We need you
Every day
We got to get a message to the promised land
Like semaphores in motion so theyll understand
But every single vision that we saw today
We didnt quite believe it in the usual way
Yet here we are in heaven
Who could wnat for more
We always end up getting what were asking for
We love you
Would die for you
We need you
Every day
Its just another promise like weve heard before
Were never really knowing what were fighting for
We love you
Would die for you
We need you
Every day
We love you
Wouldnt leave you
We miss you
Far away
We love you
Would die for you
We need you
Every day
We miss you
Far away
We love you
Would die for you
We need you
Every day

Angel Of Mercy
Well theres a peter pan moon shepards delight
I got to drag in at noon and won the fight
I want my reward in heaven tonight
Just like you promised
Angel of mercy youll come to no harm
Angel of mercy theres no need for alarm
The knight in his armor wants a night in your arms
You know hes honest
Angel of mercy angel delight
Give me my reward in heaven tonight
And if I give up my sword wont you give me the right sweet angel
Well now its too late for talking we can talk later on
Let the saxophone play us until the chorus of dawn
All I need is a little oblivion
You dont need protection
Here comes the moonlight down on your bed
Angel of mercy let your heart rule your head
I dont want your money I want you instead
Dont need rejection
Angel of mercy angel delight
Give me my reward in heaven tonight
And if I give up my sword wont you give me the right
Angel of mercy give me heaven tonight
Well if you cross your heart and spit
And swear upon the grave of your mother
You got to get in the hit
Tell me that Im your all night lover
Angel of mercy angel delight
Give me my reward in heaven tonight
And if I give up my sword wont you give me the right
Angel of mercy give me heaven tonight
Angel of mercy angel delight
Give me my reward in heaven tonight
And if I give up my sword wont you give me the right
Angel of mercy give me heaven tonight

Moon After Day
Moon shed a tear
Moon give me fear
Moon light my way
Moon after day
Moon give me strength
Moon has no length
What I want to say,
Is Moon after day
Moon is full
Moon is dull
Moon light my way
Moon after day
Moon is my life
Moon gave me a knife
Moon slit my wrist
Moon a wonderful bliss
What I want to say
Moon after day!
Give Love Each Day
Standing here on sacred ground
Some days it's a mad world let it be
Words of promise fill the air, empty voices
How long have we waited?
And every time I hold your hand
You bring to me this promised land
I live for you, this promised land
Take me there and back again
Some days it's a sad world let it be
What's the point of looking for this power divine?
It's already in my changes
And every time I hear your voice
I realize I have a choice
To live again, I deserve this choice
To live again
Our hand will be now
You are the song from the book of time
To realize what is yours is mine
We are meant to be
All because our love has always been
You are the center of my day
You are my guide in every way
We are meant to be
All because our love has always been there
Giving me the light
Yes it's been there
Giving me the light
Second nature sings to me
Some days it's a dark world let it be
I define my right to be
I can follow those who've lost their vision
And every time I hold your hand
You redesign my promised land
I live for you, this promised land
I live for you
You are the song from the book of time
To realize what is yours is mine
We are meant to be
All because our love has always been
You are the center of my day
You are my guide in every way
We are meant to be
All because our love has always been there
Giving me the light (Giving me the light)
Yes it's been there, giving me the light
You are the song from the book of time
To realize what is yours is mine
We are meant to be
All because our love has always been
You are the center of my day
You are my guide in every way
We are meant to be
All because our love has always been there
Giving me the light
Yes it's been there giving me the light
Give love each day
Give love each day
Give love each day
Give love each day
Give love each day
Give love each day
Give love each day
Give love each day
Give love each day
Give love each day
