Embrace yourself
Embrace yourself
Touch the skin behind you
Close your eyes
And dream and see the landscape
That you have not seen
You and I
Embrace yourself
I am the wind

Before I Close my Eyes
Before I close my eyes to sleep the last sound I must hear is your voice saying I love you.
Before I close my eyes to sleep the last thing my lips must press up against is yours.
Before I close my eyes to sleep the last thing my eyes must gaze upon in yours.
Before I close my eyes to sleep the last touch I must feel is the warmth of your embrace.
I must do all these things before I close my eyes every night because tomorrow is not promise, and if tonight should be my last night I want it to end with you.
Sensation
I close my eyes,
You're there,
Open my hands,
Despair,
I move my lips,
A kiss,
I dream, a dream,
Of Bliss,
I feel your presence,
In my blood,
Love rushing thru me,
Like a flood,
My heart no longer,
In it's place,
I feel your touche,
You're warm embrace,
Who are you?
Tell me, I must know,
'I'm just the Wind,
Please let me go'.

A silent snowfall defines forever
Her dark eyes will glance your past,
embrace bitter years, deep in mist,
and will shine in solitude her kissed,
nightly face of your winter glassed.
Outside the snow will fall and cover,
as a white quilt her steps and trace,
a tear of the North wind to embrace,
a same yard of grass and red clover.
So well drawn was the dream's end,
now a silent snowfall defines forever,
two dark eyes are kin to a far of never,
while falling snowflakes hopes bend.

Hold Me Close
Take me in your arms again.
Hold me close once more.
Take me in your arms again
like you've done before.
There's no other feeling dear
like your warm embrace.
You can tell how I feel
from the smile on my face.
Where can I get this feeling
when your arms are gone?
Only the memories of their touch
is what I must rely on.
They say my memories will fade away
as time moves ahead.
But what do they know of my memory?
These are just words that are said.
So take me in your arms again.
Hold me close once more.
Embrace me so I'll never forget
just like you've done before.

Deliver Me
I'm tired of feeling hateful
I'm tired and I can't breathe
So tired that I would be grateful
If you close the door when you leave
That's me diggin' my heels in
That's me with the holy ghost
'Scuse me but I don't remember
Where were you when I needed you most
And I'm tied to the sky
As you claw at my eyes
And I wait for the flood
I swim in blood
As I crawl to my knees
And I beg your disease
Taste the ice on your breath
As you catch your death
I close my eyes
Embrace me
Deliver me
Hey you the voice of reason
Hey you are you listening to me
It's you that I can't believe in
I don't buy what I don't see
Say good-bye 'cause I don't need
[Repeat Chorus]
[Repeat Chorus]
I close my eyes
Embrace the wave
Abandon me
Save the day
That I won't see
Deliver me

A Dream To Behold
Dreams dont dry 'n die
They dwell in us forever
Everyone has a dream
A dream to write
A dream to recite
A dream to educate
Like a leech, leave not your dream
Clasp it much tighter that tight
Come day come night
Like a lion running after an antelope
pursue your dream in zest
Never surrender nor retreat
Remember you were born to win
And to win you can
Yes! you can win because you can
Always strive for the best
Never get dissapointed
Never get discouraged
Eye on your dream
I can see its close and close
Its arms outstreatched in readiness for an embrace

Artist Dreaming
Close your eyes baby
Off to sleep.
Find your soul
In God’s arms to keep
Dream your dreams
In your eyes
There's a glow
See your dreams
Live your Dreams
Now you know
See them come alive
Watch them dance
Through your eyes
Dream your Dreams
Coming now into focus
Dream your dream of art
Dreams with passion to create
Never waking from its light
Lift your head
Never lay it down
Create your dreams
Paint it, live it, embrace it
Dream what you are
Dream it true
Tonight the dreams are all for you

Was it a Dream?
The feeling of your body next to mine
Was it all a Dream?
The love you once had for me
Was it all a Dream?
The kiss that made my lips quiver
Was it all a Dream?
The eyes that took my fears away
Was it all a Dream?
The beautiful scent that made me cry
Was it all a Dream?
The touch that made me feel so good
Was it all a Dream?
The voice that made me feel so safe
Was it all a Dream?
The embrace that made me want to stay
Was it all a Dream?
The times that I thought you were mine
Was it all a Dream?

Embrace The Sunshine
Do you ever feel the cold at night
All only to feel it's warmth inside
Sick and war-ar-arm beneath the healing li-i-ight
You got to e-e-embrace the sunshine, e-e-embra-ace
You got to e-e-embrace the sunshi-ine, e-e-embra-a-ace
I woke up late today without warmth all over me
As the sunshine reaches out, breaks through the trees
Leafy shadows crawl across my bedroom walls
I could feel the bree-ee-eeze
When I'm feeling down and all messed up within
I just remember the sun's warmth pulls me throu-ou-ough
I get outside and soak it up with my blue eyes
You can feel it too-oo-oo
You got to e-e-embrace the sunshine, e-e-embra-ace
You got to e-e-embrace the sunshi-ine, e-e-embra-a-ace
E-e-embrace the sunshine, e-e-embra-ace
You got to e-e-embrace the sunshi-ine, e-e-embra-a-ace
I feel the strength, I feel the peace and harmony
Away from everything I learnt tranquility
All it has to give I take with open arms
Feel that sunbaked breeze
I want the feeling like the one I feel right now
I tried to know where, I'll find my space somehow
I need to get away, leave the night behind
I will find my way-ay-ay-ay-ay
You got to e-e-embrace the sunshine, e-e-embra-ace
You got to e-e-embrace the sunshi-ine, e-e-embra-a-ace
E-e-embrace the sunshine, e-e-embra-ace
You got to e-e-embrace the sunshi-ine, e-e-embra-a-ace
Can you feel the warmth withi-i-i-i-i-in
Can you feel the warmth withi-i-i-i-i-in

On our ship of dreams
I dream
And feel
Your heart's gaze
And smile amazed
I dream
And see
Our tentative fingers
Interlace
I dream
With my eyes
Locked in yours
And in a daze
I dream
And touch
The contours of your
Loving face
I dream
And find
Lips that grace
Mine in a tender
Longed for embrace
I dream
And breathe
This love's sweet
Heady haze
I dream
This dreamy place
And its slow pace
I dream
This love's
Real daydream
On our ship of dreams

Dreaming
I've seen you in a vision,
Or maybe it was a dream,
Your hair was silky and glowing,
And oh how your eyes did gleam.
Your smile was so perfect,
Your skin was so soft and fair,
Your kiss was like heaven,
And your touch nothing could compare.
As I laid In your warm embrace,
With the scent of passion in the air,
It was like a scene out of a movie,
Of this great love affair.
As we ravished each others bodies,
Well in to the dark of night,
And still holding on,
Throughout the morning light.

The Promise (tracy Chapman)
The Promise
If you wait for me then I’ll come for you
Although I’ve traveled far
I always hold a place for you in my heart
If you think of me, if you miss me once in awhile
Then I’ll return to you
I’ll return and fill that space in your heart
Remembering
Your touch
Your kiss
Your warm embrace
I’ll find my way back to you
If you’ll be waiting
If you dream of me like I dream of you
In a place that’s warm and dark
In a place where I can feel the beating of your heart
Remembering
Your touch
Your kiss
Your warm embrace
I’ll find my way back to you
If you’ll be waiting
I’ve longed for you and I have desired
To see your face your smile
To be with you wherever you are
Remembering
Your touch
Your kiss
Your warm embrace
I’ll find my way back to you
If you’ll be waiting
I’ve longed for you and I have desired
To see your face, your smile
To be with you wherever you are
Remembering
Your touch
Your kiss
Your warm embrace
I’ll find my way back to you
Please say you’ll be waiting
Together again
It would feel so good to be
In your arms
Where all my journeys end
If you can make a promise if it’s one that you can keep, I vow to come for you
If you wait for me and say you’ll hold
A place for me in your heart.

Winter
Come close to me, oh companion of my full life;
Come close to me and let not Winter’s touch
Enter between us. Sit by me before the hearth,
For fire is the only fruit of Winter.
Speak to me of the glory of your heart, for
That is greater than the shrieking elements
Beyond our door.
Bind the door and seal the transoms, for the
Spirit and the face of our snow-laden fields
Makes my soul cry.
Feed the lamp with oil and let it not dim, and
Place it by you, so I can read with tears what
Your life with me has written upon your face.
Bring Autumn’s wine. Let us drink and sing the
Song of remembrance to Spring’s carefree sowing,
And Summer’s watchful tending, and Autumn’s
Reward in harvest.
Come close to me, oh beloved of my soul, the
Fire is cooling and fleeing under the ashes.
Embrace me, for I fear loneliness; the lamp is
Dim, and the wine which we pressed is closing
Our eyes. Let us look upon each other before
They are shut.
Find me with your arms and embrace me; let
Slumber then embrace our souls as one.
Kiss me, my beloved, for Winter has stolen
All but our moving lips.
You are close to me, My Forever.
How deep and wide will be the ocean of slumber;
And how recent was the dawn!

I Hear You Now
After the first embrace from you my senses knew
The look of love was in your eyes
And after we first make love our senses tingle to
The touch oh how we hypnotize
Oh, to get the feeling on and on
Oh, just to get the feeling
Holding you closer in my arms we drift to heaven
Bringing in the morning light
And after all is said and done theres only us
We can make it right
So, our love will carry on and on
Now our love will be free, be free.
And when we play, love dont delay, I hear you now
For what was then, is what is now, anyhow
As I became a guest of loves tune here again
Well carry on together like today.
After the first embrace from you I want you too
After the first embrace from you I want you too

I Hunger for More of You
I love you so very much yet
You simply are not mine
I want to embrace and hug you
But it's impossible at this time.
I hunger for your kisses
To touch your dear soft face
We might as well be worlds away
As I work at my busy pace.
I am so blessed I met you
In a most unlikely point in time
The moon was at its lowest ebb
When I thought you could be mine.
I want to follow you to rivers
That flow into the deepest sea
but my eyes just can’t stop crying
‘cause you and I may not be we.
I try to close the windows
Of my bleeding heart from you
But they just keep on opening
As I know our love’s so true.
I lose myself within your soul
Without you to be lost again
I hunger for your love’s embrace
Now.. evermore.. again.. again…

Arriving At The Island... Alone
the boat takes you to the island
the only person there
is you,
the coconut trees rise to the sky
and the white sand spreads
there is a bed
and blanket
and pillow and the glass of wind
and you embrace the body of the sea
and they
who think that you better be left alone
as you like it
have long left everything there
and you put your body down
clothes on the white sands
skin on the tree
and bones under the rocky shorelines
you close your eyes
and begin to fly away
into the abyss of
solitude.

Golden Wheat
Remember me when the South wind blow
Golden wheat, where the waves dance in row
Forget the emptiness and cold
Embrace love and the memories you hold
Remember me solemnly gazing for doe
Golden wheat, where waves dance in row
Entwined together on the greens we rolled
Embrace love and the memories you hold
Will you stay with me, as old we grow
Golden wheat, where the wave dance in row
Together we'll erase the world's toll
Embrace love and the memories you hold
South wind lover always know
Golden wheat, where waves dance in row
Bodies come together as if made in a mold
Embrace love and the memories you hold
My pledge to you from Heaven and below
Golden wheat, where waves dance in row
With my last breath our love will still unfold
Embrace love and the memories you hold
When we're gone I hope our descendants know
Golden Wheat, where waves dance in row
Feel the south wind, be it warm or cold
Embrace love and the memories you hold

For Cindy
The season's first frost
clashed with her innocence...
The innocence shown in dark brown eyes.
That night I heard the wind cry for her.
...and I cry now
the wind cries...
and I cry.
I see her innocence smiling in the night sky.
Under the sky, I wonder why...why not I?
I wish for her friendly embrace...once more...forever
Only to have her Mother's tear on my shoulder
on the rainy afternoon.
...But we shall meet again.
I will embrace her once more...
forever...soon.
I heard the wind cry for Cindy...
The wind cries for Cindy.
We all cry for Cindy.
...for Cindy

Parting
We embrace.
Rich cloth under my fingers
While yours touch poor fabric.
A quick embrace
You were invited for dinner
While the minions of law are after me.
We talk about the weather and our
Lasting friendship. Anything else
Would be too bitter.
