Here I Am
i stand like nothing against an embrace
not even a single particle of dust
i stand like nothing plenitude heart
and i yearn to take those hands
and i yearn to look at those eyes
and i yearn to seal those lips
in a beautiful nothing of words
silent blissful wonderfully clear
of everything
here i am

At Day's End
I yearn so much your genuine love
After my daily tasks are done.
I yearn your precious words of encouragement
Until my stress in life is done.
I yearn the sympathy that in your heart lies
After all the strenuous labor is done.
I yearn the radiant smile on your face
After viewing the glorious setting sun.

Unmet Need
I know not that for which I yearn
But know my life is incomplete,
At night I lie and toss and turn
But always I meet with defeat.
Sometimes my heart will miss a beat.
I know not that for which I yearn
A malady I cannot treat
Sometimes it goes but will return.
Perhaps in due course I will learn
What I must know to be complete.
I know not that for which I yearn
Until I know I can’t compete.
So like an echo I repeat
What must I do to earn
full forgiveness for my deceit
I know not that for which I yearn.

Oh how I yearn
Oh how I yearn to hold you again
To feel your soft sensuous lips on mine
Oh baby, the feelings that go through my body
When you are holding me, kissing, probing
Time stands still and I am lost in lust
Wanting you, desiring you, needing you
Oh baby, these tears of not having you with me
Are sobbing selfishly and fiercefully
I yearn for you baby girl, you know I do
Please be with me, please baby, please
I would do anything to be with you
I'm stumbling here I know
But I yearn so much for you that
My heart and eyes cry simultaneously
In unison, just to want to hold you again

Only A Little
Bread and water and in your heart a space
Is all I want for a little happiness
A little warm corner, window to the sky
Is all I want to live and to die.
I yearn to see a smile light up your face
Yearn for your touch, a little embrace
A little sunshine, a few drops of rain
A little love from you to heal all my pain.

The Statue
Heart yearns
For your behold
Unable to hold
The pace.
Eyes yearn
To see you
Remain glued
At your face.
I yearn
For you
But for me
You are mearely
A statue.

Yearnin Learnin
Maurice white, charles stepney & philip bailey
Once upon a time, a child was born
With a light, to carry on,
Didnt know what he had to be, had a feelin
He was bound to see...
So the streets, he fled to shine
In a world of a different kind,
As he yearn, so he learn.
Stop! look whats behind you
Fame and love gonna find you
Were just here to remind you
Yearn and learn is what you do.
He just felt so, good inside
Watchin people come alive
Throbbin rhythm and it stirs your soul
Melodies of joy unfold...
Gives your heart such a special treat
Clap your hands, stomp your feet...
As we yearn, so we learn.
Stop! look whats behind you
Fame and love gonna find you
Were just here to remind you
Yearn and learn is what you do.

Gentle Faith
The soft embrace of a summer’s breeze
Is calm and gentle like the hand of God
That hugs and comforts I
With love and tenderness
A Father that I yearn to know
A Brother who I yearn to believe
And faith that I hold onto with my life
Because without faith
I have nothing
Without faith I have no love
Without faith I have no soul
Without faith I have no one
With faith I have all that God has given me
With faith I have all the blessings that I deserve
With faith I will have all I need
Because with faith, God hears me

Circe
Day after day I yearn, look at him,
watch where he lies naked against me,
I see the sun rising red in the east,
I yearn that in passion again he will take me.
I want to stop all the sadness in his eyes,
I want to bind him for a while to me,
I want to stop him from going into further danger,
I want to blind him with kindness and love
but when he walks restless up and down,
staring out far over the ocean for moments long,
then I want to keep him but all of my hope fades
while I know that he cannot stay any longer
and still I wish for him to be with me,
while I look far away, far past his gaze.

The Sweetest Torment
Tease me with a sight
A sight so sweet, so blissful
It doesn't matter if I yearn, because I know right,
That the torment it will cause, it could be nothing but painful
I have come to accept this fate,
The fate so painfully apparent
To this end, I could not debate
For this torment was so clearly inherent
Tantalizing as you are,
You made me dream, dream, and dream
A dream so distant and far
Now I wish that we could be joined by a seam
Now I seek all this was reality
I could no longer bear it
Now I fall into insanity
Where nothing is ever lit
Now I'll yearn at your feet
Whatever it takes to deliver me
Away from pain and to what I seek
Then finally, it will only be you who I see

No Peace For You And Me
what are we fighting for
peace is not real
we are always at war
because nobody will yeild
a war on terrorism
a war on drugs
a war on orientaion
and a war on crime
degredattion will not yeild
even with communication
theres no such thing as peace
dont let them lie to you
peace of mind
peace of heart
nomatter who you are
we will never know peace
we yearn for its embrace
we yearn for its grace
but dont let them lie to you
they draw a line between human
and animal
the way we act
the way we think
if its not to expectations
we get drugged by law
we fight for a freedom
that we will never see
why do we fight
why do we die
hate is the answer
hate is the key
its hate that we see
not love for you and me
there is no peace

In This Time Of The Year
My heart is in yearn
Memories are coming near
My longing and my yearn
In this time of the year
In this time of the year
All those who were dear
Still are living here
Even their voices still I can hear
In this time of the year
Sentiments melted with tear
Inside my heart love emotions gathered with fear
Ah in this time of the year
I can feel so neat
Compassion for everything
for everyone increased a beat
I can see the realities so clear
What's and who's Lear
In this time of the year
we are standing here
Out of the time we are in fear
Hearts are tired war's pain hard to bear
In this time of the year
Ah aches are in heat
Sorrows melted with my heart's beat.
The clock on the wall has stopped before millions of years.

Let The Time Go By
Take me in your arms again
and hold me close to you.
Take me in your arms again
and whisper 'I love you.'
Let me look into your eyes
to see how much you care.
There is no place I'd rather be,
no place anywhere.
'Cause you make me feel your eyes can see
what you always do to me.
You make me shiver, make me burn
and always dear you make me yearn
to just stay quiet in your arms
and let the time go by.
Take me in your arms again.
Never let us part.
Take me in your arms again
and feel my beating heart.
Let me close my eyes a while
and kiss you tenderly.
I'm eager for your lips on mine
and I will always be.
'Cause you make me feel that you can see
what you always do to me.
You make me shiver, make me burn
and always dear you make me yearn
to just stay quiet in your arms
and let the time go by.

Prayer of a prisoner in a extermination camp
Maybe I will never see you, Jerusalem,
still I yearn to walk in your streets,
at times I have hope,
at other times my heart tightens,
when I see every face, hear every voice
of them that have got to die and I am forced
to strip my own people from all dignity
to help destroy them, to breath in their fear of death.
In how many extermination camps their are people like me,
who lead their own people to the valley of death,
who themselves yearn for their own certain destruction
have to undress corpses
trying to stay alive crying, vomiting,
are praying to You, are waiting day upon day for salvation?

ACROSTIC (Lyrics)
Love to hear your melody and I
yearn so to hear you speak;
really feel your embrace. But I feel
instant relief in my heart when you
come whispering in the wind and
say the words that set me free.

This Heaven
Had I not believed in Heaven, I simply must now;
You may be lead to query: 'This may be, yet how? '
Whensoever I may have occasion, to gaze in to your eyes,
I can see Heaven, I have no means to feign, nor disguise!
I yearn to see this Heaven, every solitary night;
I long to be humbly within your gracious sight!
If only my heart had words, oh, what it would recite-
A sweet song of my elation, my soul's delight!
Mine whole life, I have awaited to be in your embrace;
I stand now in inspired awe, at your amazing grace!
My jollity knows not bound, nor cease, I would submit!
Your love hath more power than word could admit!
But for now, this Heaven only exists when I dream,
Then I awaken to my reality, though real it did seem!

Hero's Return
In a time of fear and confusion,
silence charging the air
The sunlight is gone, darkness lives on
in the heart of the dragons lair
Lost in a world of illusions
No trace of the missing ore
Stealing our souls, were out of control,
knocking at deaths door
All our beliefs fading into ashes
Heed the words that we pray
For a Heros Return our hearts still yearn
Rise and conquer, let the infidels burn
Now we charge, the battle is raging,
blood runs everywhere
Our anger is fierce, avenging the years
No time for a final prayer
Behold, the might of the hammer,
elliptical bolts of fire
Theres nowhere to run, nowhere to hide
Youre down to the wire
Somewhere out there lies a new tomorrow
for me and those who believe
For a Heros Return our hearts still yearn
Rise and conquer, let the infidels burn
For a Heros Return our hearts still yearn
Rise and conquer, let the infidels burn
Oooh
Now, Ive returned from a place far beyond
My mission I set, let it be done
We still belive in a brighter future
The dreams are ours to fulfil
For a Heros Return.
