Shadow
Let me embrace you in the night,
When all love is at it's height,
In renewed and poignant might,
Heart of Hearts, Human Delight.
Life, a mystery afar,
A surprising, falling star,
In my arms, I will embrace,
Just a Shadow, not a face.
For my Love has gone to Sea,
And no longer is with me,
Thousand daggers in the night,
Oh my heart has taken flight...

Embrace
(r gibb)
I dont know what you want, I dont hear what you said
Truth behind the lies
cause I cant see whats in your head
And spread your wings and fly, out in a brave new world
Let this be my prayer, to keep you safe when Im not there
Can we love and live apart, I dont know,no, I dont know
How can we divide the heart, I dont know, no, I dont know
And when the night falls, and when the sky falls,
I long for your embrace
And in the cold night, under the street light
I long for your embrace
Living separate lives, I have faith in you, away from you
Like a lonely child, I will hang on every word
Embrace
Through the mists of time, lovers can be friends
The power of the human heart
The secrets in the souls of men
All my blessings in disguise
I dont know, no, I dont know
Reunited we will rise
I dont know, no, I dont know
And when the night falls, and when the sky falls,
I long for your embrace
And in the cold night, under the street light
I long for your embrace
Living separate lives, I have faith in you, away from you
Like a lonely child, I will hang on every word
And when the night falls, and when the sky falls,
I long for your embrace
Another daybreak, another heartache
I long for your embrace
Living separate lives
Away from you
Embrace, embrace
The lonely, lonely life
Lonely days and nights
We can live our life
Embrace, embrace
With our separate lives
Embrace, embrace
The lonely, lonely lives
Lonely days and nights
I will never send away
Embrace, embrace
The lonely, lonely lives
Embrace the child inside
The lonely, lonely lives

Love's Embrace
Filled with happiness
when I'm with you,
There are no days
that are sad and blue.
No doubt that you take me
to a better place,
And wrap me tight
in your love's embrace.
Your smile is filled
with warmness I see,
Your laughter says
you are happy with me.
Your heart is as soft
as velvet and lace,
Still pulling me into
your love's embrace.
Gone are the days
I searched high and low,
Taking every hit
of heartbreak's mighty blow.
No longer do I feel
the pain of tears down my face,
You wiped them all away
with your love's embrace.
Now here I stand
to return that love to you,
My heart will always be yours,
faithful and true.
We both found true love,
and are wrapped in God's grace.
And to each other we are wrapped,
in our love's embrace.

It's Love
Song
Hold on
If only for one more night
Take hold of me
And take flight
It's now or never!
Take my hand
Come fly with me
Up into the heavens!
What we leave behind,
The darkness and fears,
The love and the lust
We leave not only us
We take flight
We hold on
Embracing the sky
Exchanging our love!
Our souls are forever mixed
Into one
It's love
It's love
Across the universe
Tonight our darkness becomes
The fate of the world
The shimmer in your eyes
The passion in your heart
Take flight
With me
Hold tight
If only for one night
Our bodies hit the floor
No more will we feel pain
Tonight we will love
Talking:
(Everybody join hands
Everybody love your brother
Kiss your mother
And come together in peace with others
Don't hold back your tears
Cry together as one
Let no race or indifference get inbetween
Hold on tight
Let the love flow between us all)
All across the universe
All through our hearts
All together as one
All together!
It's love
It's love
Across the world
Taking its flight
Embracing our hearts
Everyone join together as one
Connect our hearts as one
Embrace the love together!

The Night Before Christmas
Children carry through the streets
A brightly painted star.
Angels gather round the hearth,
Strumming on guitars.
Men of great renown and faith
Say prayers on boulevards.
Its the night before christmas.
But you dont have to be an angel
To sing harmony.
You dont have to be a child
To love the mystery. (mystery)
And you dont have to be a wise man
On bended knee.
The heart of this christmas is in you and me.
(the night before christmas.)
(the night before christmas.)
If your hearts been longing,
Youve been afraid to try,
Sorrows kept you company,
And the dance has passed by,
Ill lift you up and blaze with you
Across the moonlit sky
On the night before christmas.
cause you dont have to be an angel
To sing harmony.
You dont have to be a child
To love the mystery. (mystery)
And you dont have to be a wise man
On bended knee.
The heart of this christmas is in you and me.
The heart of this christmas is in you and me.
(the night before christmas.)
(the night) the night before christmas.
(the night) the night before christmas.
(the night) the night before christmas.
(the night before christmas.)
(the night) the night before christmas.
(the night before christmas.)
(the night) the night before christmas.
(the night) la, la, la, la....

Shall I ever? ...
Shall I ever know a night within your embrace?
Shall I ever know a morning that see's your smile?
Shall we ever embrace one another in a field of hope?
Shall the song in my heart ever sing your name?
Shall the dark times we know shine bright in the light of love?
Shall our hearts ever beat to rythm of the same drum?
Shall I pass you by on life's journey without recognition?
Shall we miss the never that might have been? ...
Spread the love... The peace will follow...

Standing In The Shadow
(coverdale)
Im running away from a feeling
Hiding my face in the sand
Im scared to love and lose again
I dont know if I can
I dont need the night to remind me
Where the lonely people go
I try running away from love
But, my heart keeps telling me no
Too many people
Standing in the shadow of love
Too many people
Are standing in the shadow
Standing in the shadow of love
Ive been living so long in the darkness
I know the cold embrace of the night,
When morning comes I close my eyes
cos Im blinded with the light
Taking a chance of a feeling
Is like waiting for a flower to grow,
So I stand at the crossroad, baby,
Wondering which way to go
Too many people
Standing in the shadow of love
Too many people
Are standing in the shadow.
Standing in the shadow of love
Im running away from a feeling,
Hiding my face in the sand
Im scared to love and lose again
I dont know if I can
I dont need the night to remind me
Where the lonely people go
I try running away from love
But, my heart keeps telling me no
Too many people
Standing in the shadow of love,
Too many people
Are standing in the shadow,
Standing in the shadow of love...

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...

Heart's Embrace
for ever shall this curse me?
this fire with it's amazing warmth and beauty
for ever shall i see you in the sky
ur shinning light of care, a lie?
for you will chose the moon, to let your soul fly
she is beautiful how ever am i to deny
im just the water, within the earths embrace
im a silvery thing attached to the moon with a thin lace
for ever shall i see the face
the shinning light above this place
you will choose the moon, to let your hearts combined
in not in the air or the sky, i can see you sun; i am not blind
my moon my moon hear me do you mind?
i am here and you are there; and your smiling so kind.
i am just a moving mirror, reflecting your light
within my beloved earths embrace day and night
could you forgive me my moon for my fright?
could you forgive me my earth for my delight?
could you love me the same my moon?
could you still smile down on me, if you knew my heart's boon?
could you hold me the same my earth, in your embrace if i sang a new tune?
coul you still fill me with light my sun, and sing attune?
for i should not ask for such things
i should answer all of the with great greetings
my moon, my dearest light of silver lace, you should not know of my ravings
my earth my dearest earth with your loving embrace, you shouldnt know of my quislings.
this should haunt me no more
its been open my moon, your magic door
so in twilight that is yet to come, you my moon and my sun may adore
and ill be here your mirror in my earth embrace, hiding my watery hearts face forever more

His Child Reaching Up To Embrace
God eagerly waiting to embrace
his soul his heart each morning.
God eagerly waiting to embrace
his child reaching up to embrace.
A child asking questions of own heart
why his father’s heart him doth so move.
Pouring upon him unlimited love divine
giving a guiding light love from above.
A heart eager to be taught and know
God's love with each new day’s light.
A heart wanting to climb up to his God
upon a sun-beam or moon beam night.
If thy will is to seek would God’s love know?
To each every mortal soul good deeds sow.
Do not stack all their error sins in view row
humility compassion charity to them show.

Open Arms
If love is what you want
Baby here I am
If tenderness is what you need
Ive got that to give
If you need some affection
Baby these are open arms
Open arms open arms open arms open arms
You come hem youve had a hard day
Every door you tried to open
Was closing in your face

If you need some attention
Baby these are open arms
Open arms open arms open arms open arms
Every corner you turn
Trouble come your way
But when you get home
Ill try to be there
And Ill embrace you

Open arms
If time is what you need
Baby Ill stop the clocks
If youre looking for something
Maybe Ive got what you want
If theres one thing to remember
Dont forget that these are open arms
Open arms open arms open arms open arms
These are

What About Love?
It crawls inside you
Like a strange disease
One time the giver
Next time the thief
I know what you know
So I won't let this go
You choose your brother
If he looks the same
You dirty white boy
It's all for gain
But I know what you know
So I won't let this go
What about love?
And the human race
What about love?
It's a different face
What about love?
Why can't we embrace?
I've got to know
I want to know
The start of reason
Is the end of hate
Progressive healing
For the corporate
But I know what you know
So I won't let this go
What about love?
And the human race
What about love?
It's a different face
What about love?
Why can't we embrace?
I've got to know
What about love?
And the human race
What about love?
It's a different face
What about love?
It's a big disgrace
I've got to know
I want to know

To Catch A Falling Star
My heart was once a falling star
That burned with a dying light
But her fall was not very far
As you plucked her from the night
Most carefully you sighed a kiss
Keeping her fragile light aflame
And oh what a grand gesture was this
As she was not an easy star to tame
You held her close in your warm embrace
Praying the little star reclaim her glow
Quickly she returned from her fall from grace
As it was your love that helped her light grow
When all the heaven's bemoaned her return
You so gently tossed her back to the night
And how fierce does her little flame burn
Ever will she shine within your love's light

Raison D'Etre
O WEARY night, O weary day,
When heart's delight is far away!
What is the day? A frame of blue
The vacant-glaring sun grins through.
What is the night? A sable veil
Through which the moon peers tired and pale.
O weary day! O weary night!
How far away is heart's delight!
Love hung the sun in his high place
To give me light to see her face,
And love spread out the veil of night
To hide us two from all men's sight.
O kindly night, O pleasant day,
Your use is gone--why should ye stay?
My heart's delight is far away,
O weary night, O weary day.

Because I Am
Because I am your star
life shines in the sky
night loves to sleep late
the day closes its eyes
If you want be my star
become alive on earth
become the night’s lover
be a man in the dawn
Because I am your dream
life pierces in your mind
the night gazes into your soul
the day takes its stroll
If you want be my dream
seed life in my arms
pour passion in the night
transform the days into flowers
Because I am your warmth
life swims in your blood
night overflows your heart
the day longs for the night
If you want be my warmth
allow blood to come alive
shed the night from the heart
the day caresses the night
You and I are in love
me and you in the night
If you are my dream
I become reality
You and I are in love
in the night, you and me
If I am a real women
you pass into eternity

Don't Underestimate The Power Of...
Don’t Underestimate The Power

As One, We Plan
To Face The Future

Of Seeing Your Face
Eyes of Night-Skies
And Lips Of Berries’ Taste

When They Meet With Mine

A moonlight embrace...
You come to me in the dark of night
We hold each other in the soft moonlight
A shadow of love the two of us do cast
As we hold each other hard and fast
Observed by the moon and shining stars
We have come together from afar
Do you feel the love and harmony
The pleasure and the tranquility
We stand beneath the strong oak trees
Our heartbeats rise and fingers tease
Leaves drift by as they are blown
We embrace in the moonlight all alone
Although we two are far apart
In dreams we hold each others heart
Oh moonlight hear my passionate plea
Light up the heart that beats for me...
Spread the love... The peace will follow...

Her
Her tears
are still drilling holes
to the center of my heart.
Lonely,
I can no longer feel
her lips on my lips,
her face on my face,
her hand in my hand.
Blind,
I can no longer see
the skin
covered by her clothes.
Touched
by another man's kiss,
covered by his embrace
I imagine her to be.
Hate I have
for him,
for me,
for the whole world
but not for her.
In love
with this girl
I was.
Lost
in her lost embrace
I am.
A memory
among other memories
I wish to be.
In love
with this girl
I still am.

One Night
Call me a fool, send me away
I've got to say it's you I adore
I'm longing in love, falling apart
I follow my heart straight to your door.
Face to face with all honesty
I will be grateful if you'd give to me
Just one night to lay in your arms
Give me just one night could it be that I was born
To make every dream you ever had come true
In just one night, oh one night with you.
Standing this close the sound of your voice
Leads me no choice I offer my love
Am I so wrong to think you might fall
'Cause baby you're all I can think of.
Face to face with all honesty
I will be grateful if you'd give to me
Just one night to lay in your arms
Give me just one night could it be that I was born
To make every dream you ever had come true
In just one night, oh one night with you.
