Drifting Hell
I sit here alone it's cold and dark.
I don't know where to go which way to embark.
Drifting along a lost ship at sea.
I'm lonley and desperate,
for my past I do grieve.
I've fumbled big time there's no doubt about that.
Now I'm burning in fire that's just like ice.
I'd take it all back if I had but one chance,
but I've blown it forever now I'm stuck in this dance.
So I'll sit here forever mourning my loss,
I crossed all the lines now I'm paying the cost.

Drifting Away
(orbison/dees)
Sadness slips into the room
On silent steps of sorrow
Stealing sleep and all my dreams
Where will we be tomorrow?
Lying with you, crying with you, drifting
Talking till dawn yet we go on, drifting
Dont understand where we began just drifting apart
Drifting apart feeling alone drifting away
We cant seem to work it out
Drifting from day to day
Wasnt it all about, drifting away
Drifting away, drifting away
Losing the feeling
And now the music of the song is almost gone
That we used to play
From sweet surrender from drifting away, drifting
Two lovers lost two rivers crossed, drifting
Two bridges burned, no lesson learned, drifting
Lonely together, hurting each other
Still we cant say that its over
Can we bring back yesterday?
Will we be forever, forever drifting away
Drifting, drifting away

Lost Forever
All your life youre bin slipping and sliding
Trying to find a way
Sun wont shine but now its your time to pay
Theres no turning back as you look
The hangman in the eye
Now hells just your death away
Its too late to say you care
When theres evil in your stare
You say youre not to blame
In your head voices mocking
Every prayer
Remember the face you saw
That once was you
Spirit high theres no way that
You could lose
Give him rope they said
As you look the hangman in
The eye
Now around your neck you feel
The noose
In your head voices mocking
Every prayer
Now youre lost forever
Im burning with fire its time to
Leave or get out
Im burning in fire I cant take
No more so get out
Im burning with fire the wheels of
Steel will grind you
Burning in fire this time
Youre lost forever
Lost forever!
Theres an evil in your stare
Lost forever!
And hells just a breath away
Youre lost forever
And theres no way out you burn
With fire its time to get out
Get out, get out
And theres no way out
Lost forever

A Book, Never Read
Many, many years ago, I experienced a loss most profound;
Now I view the same as a blessing-a dichotomy to confound;
I no longer need solace; I no longer grieve-
Any sense of loss I may have felt, I begged its leave;
I think not of moments lost; nor of a life, without;
My mind has removed, forever and always, any doubt:
For, my most heart-wrenching loss is now my gain;
My heart's poignant relief, supplanted its deepest pain!
Nary hath a moment come, since this day of change,
Where my former sense of loss, seemed anything but strange;
I am begotten from what I lost, though there, it ends;
I live my life with this knowledge, no matter where it sends
Me, or any other I may love-for, he is now and ever, dead-
Gone forever, forgotten completely-as though a book, never read!

Love (All Over The World)
unheard of love was dreaming inside her hair
the facts of life and me were screaming
i wasn't there
so we took upon myself to swallow
what i should see
and if the world should beg to follow
i'd disagree
we took her head outside and waited
until the rain
called all the dreams anticipated
and never came
she held him in her arms you wondered
is it to be
is love an everlasting thunder
or are we
are we lost forever
are we lost forever
lost forever
are we lost forever
are we lost forever
lost forever
unseen of worlds existing
inside the waves
of all unfolding in the mystery
in secret ways
the dreams are all becoming clearer
the clouds are green
is any way a wee bit nearer
or are we
are we lost forever
are we lost forever
are we lost forever
are we lost forever
lost forever
are we lost forever
are we lost forever
are we in lust forever
lost forever

The ship has left the empty coast
The ship has left the empty coast
Leaving behind him who is worried and lost
The ship has departed the desolate port
For ever or for a while short
The ship has sailed into the dark hazardous sea
An unretractable track, its fate what it to be
You are walking away from me love
A most dire constancy descending on me from above
If you are, I bid you farewell
Fare well to you and if forever
Still forever farewell and be guarded well
Even though gnawed with anguish and pain, never
Against you my heart rebel
Walk down away like a cold rivulet to the sea
Thee steps and the waves their tribute deliver
No more by thee my steps will be
And if forever let it be forever a never
Walk down away by lawn and lea
Walk a rivulet and hurry a river
No more by thee my mind will be
And if forever, let it be forever a never
Yet in vast pastures still for thee sighs a tree
And by thee a bush will shiver
Among sprout of balmy sprouts will hum the bee
And if forever, let the world be shaken and quiver
Let thousands of suns stream on thee
Followed by thousands of moon shot over thee head
But not by thee my steps will be
And if forever, let my heart forever be dead
It is in vain to struggle, let my love perish young
It lived as it lived; it loved as it loved dwelling in my breast
To dust if I return, from dust I sprung
And then at least my love can never be upset
Rather be it weaned than be ware out
To keep what it left behind beneath the cloud of doubt

Loss Of...
Loss it seems is the worst kind of sorrow
Loss of dreams, the dreams of tomorrow
Loss of the moments you two should have shared
Loss of opportunities to show her you cared
Loss of the memories you both could have created
Loss of the romance once intense as you dated
Loss of a kiss, caress, or embrace
Loss of that special feeling no one else can replace
Loss of a look, the twinkle in her eye
Loss of the touch as you pass each other by
Loss of a future, from a past of regret
Loss of a last chance, how many do you get
Loss of a promise you never meant to break
Loss of two hearts that forever will ache

Ever since there was sun and stars
If you wipe away those tears
And look back over all of those years
You will find not a surer kind of love
Ever since there was a sun and stars
Above to warm the blood in our hearts
"Forever you" I've been in love
"Forever you" I've been in love
I've been there in love for you
You will find not a surer kind of love
You will find every wish
You've only been thinking, dreaming of
Oh, dream of me!
Like I'm dreaming of you again…
Oh when the winter raps its cloak
Around your heart
I will always be there to warm
And shelter you
"Forever you"
"Forever you"
From the cold and dark
Sure as a fire is burning in your heart
"Forever will I be"
Tracking back in the melting ice
And snow
It's never easy but if you love me
You will discover and find the old me
And I will be
Sure to follow you
"Forever you"
For all eternity
Because of what you have meant to me.

Intussusception
this is now, we live
so cold, and lifeless
just sitting here
with my head between my legs
staring at the ground
twitching, convulsing
think about the past
where did it go?
where did it come from?
and why is this such a rhetorical question
to ask myself?
so why?
i must try to seek salvation
in a world that is so cold
cold, cold, cold
loud empty thud
against my head
as the pain rushes in
and loving it
is over here upon myself
listen to time, why? why? why?
try to understand
why do you understand
when no one else does?
no one else does
sick and killing time
killing me forever
forever dead
all in till the end
so this is worth living?
in nothing?
so something is all
it's all a game to debate
contemplate suicide
i don't patronize
i don't sympathize
for you or dissed burnt image
image on top of the forehead in the mirror
where we see no truth
forever lost, forever loveless
loveless forever, loveless forever
tired of living, soul taking
i feel it breaking my mind
so goodbye, so goodbye

Wings Of The Storm
(coverdale/vandenberg)
On an on, the road goes on,
An itll go on forever,
Time will show if you and i
Will walk that road together
Through fire an water, ice an snow,
Heaven above us, an hell below,
Holding on, trying to walk the line
With sweet temptation running close behind
Im talking bout love
Ooh, love
Like a fire forever burning,
A flaming heart thats yearning, more an more
A love to keep us warm
On the wings of the storm
Everyday an every night
I keep hoping itll be all right,
Trying to leave the past behind,
Still looking for some peace of mind
But, destiny brought us together
An promised us a time that would last forever
Tho its all been said before
Its the kind of love worth fighting for
Im talking about love
Ooh, love
Like a fire forever burning,
A flaming heart thats yearning, more an more
A love to keep you warm
On the wings of the storm
On an on, the road goes on,
An itll go on forever,
Time will show if you and i
Will walk that road together
Im talking about love
Ooh, love
Like a fire forever burning,
A flaming heart thats yearning, more an more
A love to keep us warm
On the wings of the storm
My love will keep you warm
On the wings of the storm...

Time Flys
everyday i wish i could go
go with you
or just be there
but no im stuck here
all i do i wish for the time
the time that i have lost
lost to the system
or just the lost time in life
when days were fun
the days i had a gun
or just the day i had you
those days are gone
gone forever
the time fly's
the days get hard
but we never get better
everyday is lost
lost in life
ill never get the time back
its lost in the past
the past i regret
or just the past i wish i could change
change the events that happened

Driftin
(by charles brown, johnny moore and eddie williams)
Im drifting and drifting, just like a ship out on the sea.
Im drifting and drifting, just like a ship out on the sea.
Well I aint got nobody in this world to care for me.
If my baby would only take me back again.
If my baby would only take me back again.
I would feel much better, darling, and at least Id have a friend.
I give you all my money, tell me what more can I do.
I give you all my money, tell me what more can I do.
You is a sweet little girl but I swear you wont be true.
Im drifting and drifting, just like a ship out on the sea.
Im drifting and drifting, just like a ship out on the sea.
Because I aint got nobody in this world to care for me.

Anna
Anna please turn around, well work it out somehow
Anna dont turn me down, theres still a chance if we can hold out once more
cause we started out with love, that was more than enough
And thats a lot to give up
Chorus:
Even if you turn and walk away, love will bring you back somehow
I will wait forever and a day, cause I believe without a doubt
The time will not run out on our love
Anna you gotta stay, its just a stage were going through
And anna this all can change, if we turn the page then we can start all again
cause we almost touched the sky, and it could never again be this right
Anna please change your mind
Chorus:
Even if you turn and walk away, love will bring you back somehow
I will wait forever and a day, cause I believe without a doubt
The time will not run out on our love

Chorus:
Even if you turn and walk away, love will bring you back somehow
I will wait forever and a day, cause I believe without a doubt
The time will not run out on our love

Even if you turn and walk away, love will bring you back somehow
I will wait forever and a day, cause I believe without a doubt
The time will not run out on our love
And I believe without a doubt, the time will not run out
And I believe without a doubt, the time will not run out on our love

Forever In Blue
When she walked into the room
I felt her move me
I saw her eyes
They went right through me
Just one look I was forever in blue
In a spell of her embrace
Just for a moment
I was the one, caught in the moment
I knew, yes, right then I knew
Two hearts, reach for each other
Once chance, shes like no other
Im lost, lost in the dream of you
cause its true oh
Im forever, forever in blue
In a fantasy of my anticipation
I knew there was no consolation
I knew, oh I knew
And on the night she told me that
She had another
I was broken by the truth
I discovered, I knew oh I knew
Two hearts, reach for each other
Once chance, shes like no other
Im lost, lost in the dream of you
cause its true oh
Im forever, forever in blue... in blue
Believe me girl, I tried not to call
But here I am once again, yes once again
Beside you, with my hands on the wall
Two hearts, reach for each other
Once chance, shes like no other
Im lost, lost in the dream of you
Those two hearts, reach for each other
Once chance, shes like no other
Im lost, lost in the dream of you
cause its true oh
Im forever, forever in blue

Forever For You
Does anyone know
What love can cost
To take you so high
Then leave you lost
Is it a mystery
That runs too deep
For such a simple heart
Can anyone stop
The hands of time
And put back the loving
In your eyes
Though it's his name I hear
When you are sleeping
I'll pretend it's mine
{Chorus}
When they ask me how long
I'm gonna love you
If the road to my heart
Will always stay true
I'll say forever (Yeah)
I'll say forever for you
When they ask will I stand
Right there beside you
And they don't see you and me
The way that I do
I'll say forever
I'll say forever for you
A rose is rose
By any name
But a thorn will still cut
You just the same
I'm losing your love I know
So sad the feeling
I can tell
Somebodys' stealing
Stealin' away your heart
{Chorus}
When they ask me how long
I'm gonna love you
If the road to my heart
Will always stay true
I'll say forever
I'll say forever for you
When they ask will I stand
Right there beside you
And they don't see you and me
The way that I do
I'll say forever
I'll say forever for you
{Bridge}
I don't know if I should tell you
How you live in my heart
There's no room for another
If you leave me now
My heart would not recover
{Chorus}
(Forever for you)
When they ask me how long
I'm gonna love you (Oh I'm gonna love you)
If the road to my heart (Heart..)
Will always stay true
I'll say forever (Say forever)
I'll say forever for you (I'll say..)
When they ask will I stand (And I'll say forever..)
Right there beside you (Oh yeah)
And they don't see you and me (They don't see you)
The way that I do (The way that I do.)
I'll say forever (I'll say forever)
I'll say forever for you (I'll be right there. Ohh, ohh always and forever.)

Tonight And Forever

Ive waited years
For you tonight
My faith in love has been my guiding light
I heard you voice
I read your heart
I fell in love with you though we were miles apart
Tonight and forever
Tonight and forever i am yours
O sister make
My wedding bed
Tie a bunch of wild thorn branches
At the head
And scatter roses on the floor
Three bright stars shining at our door
Tonight and forever
Tonight and forever
Tonight and forever, i am yours
And a song on the wind
Rising from the sea
A fire so cold
A flame so new
No, i could never ask for more than you
The moon is high
The tide is in
Now the night is ours
Let the dance begin
Tonight and forever
Tonight and forever, i am yours

Forever Changed
Train entering the city
I lost myself and never came back
Took a trip around the world and never came back
Black silhouettes, crisscrossed tracks, never came back
Forever changed
Forever changed
You might think Im frivolous, uncaring and cold
You might think Im empty, depends on your point of view
Society andy who paints and records them
The high and the low, never turn back
Forever changed
Forever changed
Forever changed
Forever changed
Got to get to the city, get a job
Got to get some work to see me through
My old lifes behind, I see it receding
My lifes disappearing, disappearing from view
Hong kong and I was changed
Burma, thailand and I was changed
A few good friends to see me through
Henry and brigid to see me through
Only art to see me through
Only heart to see me through
My old lifes disappearing, disappearing from view
Forever changed

Let's Get Back
Get back together aah
This is a very interesting situation
I sense a gradual loss of communication
Don't you think I can see you're changing on
me
You're heading into a completely new direction
And I am having trouble making the adaptation
Don't you think I can see you're changing on me

Let's get back forever
Let's get back together
Let's get back
Let's get back together

Please ask yourself why you are making this

Don't you think I can see

Mystery Of Love
Seasons are changing
Children of love are alive
People reach out to survive
Together
Love is the message
We carry across the sky
Down through the passage of
Time forever
History unfolds
As this storys told
(and its) the mystery of love
How we go on and on forever
(and its) the mystery of love
Coming to rescue
Rescue me
A man and a woman
Lost in each others embrace
Star-crossed in time in a place
Far away
Innocent dreamers
Turning the wheels of chance
Searching to find romance
Forever
We will surely find
Love is for all time
(and its) the mystery of love
How we go on and on forever
(and its) the mystery of love
Only one heart can turn the key
Down through the history
Of love
Time is the one that holds
The answer
(and its) the mystery of love
Oh, will it set me free
For all time
(and its) the mystery of love
How we go on and on forever
(and its) the mystery of love
Only one heart can turn the key
Down through the history
Of love
Time is the one that holds
The answer
(and its) the mystery of love
How we go on and on forever
(and its) the mystery of love
Only one heart can turn the key...
