Just For A Second
Closing my eyes
just for a second
I see the face that
mesmerized my world...
Holding those thoughts
just for a moment
I feel like my life
is on a toss...
Silence crept in
weeping through my soul
Strong I stood
holding to my heart...
Wished it to be a dream
hoping to forget soon
But never got to sleep
to be woken up again...
Pain is a small word
to describe the agony
Faced in my world
just for a second...

Holding Out
Theres nothing outside my window
But the sound of the pouring rain
It oughta be breaking my heart
But I feel no pain
Trying to pick up the station
Thatll carry me through this night
Got a fire to keep me warm
til I got you in my arms
Holding out, dug in deep
I got an island that Im gonna keep
Close my eyes but I know I wont sleep
Holding out
Oh yeah
I know love wont forget me, I gotta keep holding out
Girl, Ive been dreaming about you
For the better part of my life
At least I can make it without you
One more night
Im not afraid of the thunder
I wont run away from the storm
Let the stars fall down and break
I dont care how long it takes
Holding out, dug in deep
I got an island that Im gonna keep
Close my eyes but I know I wont sleep
Holding out
Oh yeah
I know love wont forget me, I gotta keep holding out
Theres no other love in the world
I could want any more
Holding out, dug in deep
I got an island that Im gonna keep
Close my eyes but I know I wont sleep
Holding out
Oh yeah
I know love wont forget me, I gotta keep holding out

Take Me To A Dream
Love of my you are
Sunlight, my shining star
All of the world to me
All I could ever need
Lately I can feel youve grown away from me
And inside I pray its not too late to find a remedy
Dont wanna live a lie
I dont wanna say goodbye
So how can I start again
And how will my heart mend
Here I am alone with only memories
So Im searching just to find a way to keep you here with me
So I close my eyes
And I go back in time
When our love was strong
Before our hearts went wrong
I keep holding on to how it used to be
So lay me down and take me to a dream
Dreams that youre holding me
Dreams that wont ever be
Visions of loving you
Wanting to make them true
I find myself believing youll come back to me
Cause Im trying not to feel the pain, that loneliness can bring
So I close my eyes
And I go back in time
When our love was strong
Before our hearts went wrong
I keep holding on to how it used to be
So lay me down and take me to a dream
Its so hard to make it through the day without you
So I pray for night to dream youre here with me, with me
So I close my eyes
And I go back in time
When our love was strong
Before our hearts went wrong
I keep holding on to how it used to be
So lay me down and take me to a dream
So lay me down and take me to a dream

Stay Strong (My Little Angel)
I write about whatever comes to mind,
singing about the promised land,
and my failed relationships,
and how the world can be so cold,
I try to stay positive,
in the hard times that life gives us,
trying to stay on the right track,
and stray from the darker side of life,
Chorus: Stay Strong (My Little Angel)
I'm here with you by yourside,
Stay Strong (My Little Angel)
I'm here with you by yourside,
Stay Strong (My Little Angel)
I'm here with you by yourside,
I know what happened and why you are,
where you are,
how they had made you feel,
like you had done something wrong,
and how they mock you in their evil manner,
how you took a blade to your skin,
wishing you could escape everything,
and just make the pain go away,
how you wished you could make everything go away,
Chorus: Stay Strong (My Little Angel)
I'm here with you by yourside,
Stay Strong (My Little Angel)
I'm here with you by yourside,
Stay Strong (My Little Angel)
I'm here with you by yourside,
When I had heard the news,
I nearly broke down and cried,
knowing what kind of pain you were going through,
and how confused and alone you had felt,
like the world was against you again,
the one that you loved,
betrayed you in the darkest of night,
and made you feel so worthless,
made you feel like you couldn't go on,
The worlds cold and evil like that,
but I'm right here holding your hand,
hoping that you'll hold on with me,
hoping that the love I have for you will give you hope,
Chorus: Stay Strong (My Little Angel)
I'm here with you by yourside,
Stay Strong (My Little Angel)
I'm here with you by yourside,
Stay Strong (My Little Angel)
I'm here with you by yourside,
You looked for love in the wrong places,
and found out the one that you loved,
wasn't the person he said he was,
he hurt you so badly,
it makes me so mad,
and makes me a person I don't want to be,
I want to be the man you can count on,
I want to be the man that gives you hope,
the man that you know that really loves you,
just stay strong for me,
I love you Cassandra,
and that love will only stop on the day I die,
and until than I'll keep on loving you,
I'll keep on holding you close to me as you cry,
Chorus: Stay Strong (My Little Angel)
I'm here with you by yourside,
Stay Strong (My Little Angel)
I'm here with you by yourside,
Stay Strong (My Little Angel)
I'm here with you by yourside,

Sometimes I Feel
Sometimes I feel as if I am falling.
Sometimes I feel as if the world around me never stops spinning
Sometimes I feel like giving up and letting everything go
Sometimes I feel like a puppet in a show
Sometimes I feel like I should just scream
Sometimes I feel like life is nothing but a dream
Sometimes I feel as if I’m only fake
Sometimes I feel like even when I sleep I’m still awake
The dream the seems to hold me ever so tight
Being in the ever so warm sunlight
All the many things I seem to see
Can this be it, can this be the real me?
The darkness seems to fade away
I’m left shocked with nothing to say
Sometimes I feel as if I will never understand
Sometimes I feel as someone is holding my hand
Sometimes I feel completely crazy
Sometimes I feel ever so lazy
Sometimes I feel as if I lost it all
Sometimes I feel like they let me fall
Sometimes I feel as if I did so wrong
Sometimes I feel ever so strong
I know now that people really do care
I also know life isn’t always fair
There will always be so memories in my heart
Even if some seem to rip it apart
Love doesn’t always have to lead to hate
I know that I can make things better its not to late
Sometime I feel like I should just hide
Sometimes I feel to afraid to take a step outside
Sometimes I feel like just getting up to sing
Sometimes I feel like I can do anything
Sometimes I feel as all anyone can do is lie
Sometimes I feel ever so shy
Sometimes I feel happy and sad
Sometimes I feel ever so mad
I love playing in the rain
I can be strong but yet In a lot of pain
I’m not perfect nor do I want to be
I am content just being me

Desperate Heart
One night, one empty room, one man gettin over you
One star, one lonely moon, I make a wish, I know will never come true
You call my name, and you beg me to hold you again
But the truth remains, Im only a fool who cant help but pretend
Chorus:
Its all over but Im holding on, I cant let go until the love is gone
Its all over but I keep holding on with a desperate heart
With my desperate heart
Some nights, I try in my mind, I see myself learning someone new
Still I know, Im wasting my time, no one can take the place of you
So I close my eyes, I swear I feel you here by my side
But its all only a lie, I need to believe for my heart to survive
Its all over but Im holding on, I cant let go until the love is gone
Its all over but I keep holding on with a desperate heart
With my desperate heart, I keep holding on
(guitar solo)
All this time Ive been drowning in hopeless illusions Im keeping inside
That someday youll walk out of the shadows and back into my life
Its all over but Im holding on, I cant believe your love for me is gone
Its all over but I keep holding on (with a desperate heart)
Yeah with my desperate heart, I cant let go until the love is gone
(all over but Im holding on) I keep holding on
(all over but Im holding on) I cant believe your love for me is gone
(all over but I keep holding on)
(all over but Im holding on)
(all over but I keep holding on)...

Constant Static
Eyes open, I'm wide awake
I feel I'm in a coma state
I'll lay here on my back and watch the fan turn
Conversations cross my mind, but nothing of the speaking kind
TV images repeat there one lines
Back and forth I toss and turn
It feels like strings are holding up my eyes
I'd kill to fall asleep
I'd kill to fall asleep
Putting up a losing fight
I'll never see this end tonight
The thought of just one dream it consumes me
Numbers on the clock turn back, my pleas are having no affect
The beating of my heart keeps the time going
Back and forth I toss and turn
It feels like strings are holding up my eyes
I'd kill to fall asleep
I'd kill to fall asleep
They say that when you sleep your body's at rest
I wouldn't know what sleep felt like if I tried my best
Polaroids and memories can fade away, so can I...
Back and forth I toss and turn
It feels like strings are holding up my eyes

My Last Breath
Hold on to me love
You know I cant stay long
All I wanted to say was
I love you and Im not afraid
Can you hear me?
Can you feel me in your arms
Holding my last breath?
Safe inside myself
Are all my thoughts of you
Sweet rapture and life,
It ends here tonight.
Ill miss the winter
A world of fragile things
Look for me in the white forest
Hiding in a hollow tree
I know you hear me,
I can taste it in your tears.
Holding my last breath
Safe inside myself
Are all my thoughts of you.
Sweet rapture and life,
It ends here tonight.
Closing your eyes
You pray your dreams will leave you here,
But still you wake and know the truth -
No ones there.
Say goodnight, dont be afraid
Calling me, holding me, as you fade to black.
(say goodnight) holding my last breath
(dont be afraid) safe inside myself
(holding me) are my thoughts of you
Sweet rapture and life,
It ends here tonight.

Photograph
Fear falls out like rain again
Washing over me
You say nothing will ever change
What do I believe
You fall deep inside again
There's nothing left to see
Weakness fills your heart again
You put it to rest
Hoping everything
You were never strong enough
Close my eyes again
Pray that I will not give up
I try to see your face again
A photograph of me
Your voice calling out again
Nothing left for me
You try to find your place again
Waiting just to breathe
Weakness takes your heart again
You put it to rest
Locked inside again
Locked inside again
Locked inside again
Hoping everything
You were never strong enough
Close my eyes again
Pray that I will not give up
Hoping everything
You were never strong enough
Close my eyes again
Pray that I will not give up
Did you
Forget about the things I said
Right the lies inside your head
I never tried to bring you down
Kill the pain and emptiness
Find your love and lose yourself
Well I hope that your just a memory
Locked inside again
Locked inside again
Locked inside again
Holding everything
You were never strong enough
Close my eyes again
Pray that I will not give up
Hoping everything
You were never strong enough
Close my eyes again
Pray that I will not give up

In Words Unspoken
In the silence of the morning,
before the world has woken
I sit and dream my dreams
in words unspoken.
I sit and ponder the faces of life
in the nightmares of reality,
the programmes that hold us spellbound
as they appear on our TV screens
while all the world screams out with fright.
I dream my dreams in private
as their images dance inside my head,
the beauty and the wonder
upon each life befalls.
The miracles that we witness
in each day of our lives
as we walk across the threshold
to greet each new passing day.
From the birth of a new born baby
to someone’s life that has been saved.
The miracle of Mother Nature
as she wakes every flower in the morn
to the butterfly that passes our window
on delicate translucent wings.
I dream my dreams in silence
in the peace that they endorse;
hoping all the time
the world will follow their course.
I dream my dreams in the morning
before anyone is awake
while the darkness of the night
still covers the sky
before the sun has awoken
and from behind, the eastern horizon
lifts up its sleepy head.
This is the time
in the silence of the morning,
before the world has woken
I sit and dream my dreams
in words unspoken.

Holding Me Tonight
(carly simon)
You say youre not worthy of me
But how do you know when you cant see
Your eyes where midnight catches fire
I cant describe this dizzy desire
Can you be so insecure
That you dont know what this grin is for
Do you think I always act this way
Silly and silent, and eager to stay
When youre holding me tonight
Holding me tonight
You think its all a mistake
That Im lost in a dream from which Ill wake up
There youll be just another guy
You could never be but I dare you to try
When youre holding me
Holding me tonight
I walk into your room
You blush when I see it in a mess
So I undress and close my eyes
A room with a view
Is in the dark with you
But that should come as no suprise
Its not a matter of mind
The choice of the heart is a different kind
Its always been a mystery
When you walk into the room it happens to me
And when youre holding me
Holding me tonight

(Oh, holding)
(Still holdin)
(Oh)
Before you go
I'd like to say
You give me so much satisfaction
Started up a chain reaction
Tryin' to work out in my mind
A way to let you know
Oh darling
You're asking me to be strong
But I can't see the wrong
In what I'm doing
Just want to hold you every day
Locked inside this feeling
I want you here to stay

(Holding)
Cause I'm holding (I'm holding)
I'm holding on
To the pieces of a dream
Holding
I'm holding on (Still holding)
Still holding on
To the pieces of a dream
What can I do
But to be true
I'm getting such a strong sensation
And it's not my imagination
It's not me to pretend
So try and understand
Oh darling
My heart is chosen to belong
And I don't see the wrong
In what I'm feeling
I know it's time to say goodbye
But I'm not living in a lie
I want you here to stay
Chorus x 2
Oh, baby
You're asking me to be strong
But I still can't see the wrong
In what I'm doing
Just want to hold you every day
Locked? inside this feeling
I want you here to stay

Desert Song
Dark and dirty
like you have never seen
a mind so twisted
with thoughts so unclean.
My heart is racing
all tattered and torn
I stand here naked
as the day I was born.
Over and over I stand
I'm holding the world in my hand
I got to believe
The sky is falling
on this setting son
Echoes of silence
ringing loud and long
This isolation
is the king of pain
A lost horizon
in an ocean of flames
Only the lonely will stand
I'm holding the world in my hand
I got to believe
I've been here before

Thoughts on faith & hope
Thoughts on faith & hope
~
Holding faith
against all storms
which savage the soul
~
belief in love
that it shall conquer all
no matter what
~
trust in the soul
to make right decisions
to guide you safely on
~
hope in the world
that someone watches over
protecting and caring
~
opening the heart
to friends and family alike
so as not to be alone
~
breaking silence
letting thoughts be heard
without fear of them
~
holding faith
touching the heart
and facing fear
~
a hope in time
that the good will come
and remain in place
~
thoughts given air
spoken or written
somehow, someday heard

My Soul Lives With You In Your Dream
I'm thinking of you every day,
And seeking meaning of you in everything,
When i close my eyes to sleep at night,
My soul start seeking you in your dream.
I am the flower from your dream,
That scent to you amazing fragrance,
I wrapped you with my charm and beauty,
And let you to enjoy me every dream you have it.
When my eyes are tired and closing for sleep,
My soul awakes in me and seeking your soul in everything,
In the darkness of life you are my hope and happiness,
When do you sleep my soul lives with you in your dream.
My soul found you in your dream,
And dancing tenderly your soul,
A lovely love story of two souls,
That found each other in a crazy world.

One Light Burning
(sambora, foster, morolda)
All alone in the dark
No walls no windows
Trying hard to define
Heaven from hell
Standing out in the rain
With just one shadow
Nothing to see or believe
Beyond myself
See my life going by
Each moment I am alive
I keep reaching out, holding on, hoping
Somewhere in my life
Theres one light burning
I feel it like my heart beating inside
Somewhere in my life
Theres one light burning
All alone with my fears
No words are spoken
A story yet to be told
Locked in my mind
Hope is somewhere ahead
Shining brightly
But the past is always following close behind
See my life going by, each moment I am alive
I keep reaching out, holding on, hoping
Somewhere in my life
Theres one light burning
I feel it like my heart beating inside
Somewhere in my life
Theres one light burning
Somewhere in my life
Theres one light burning
I feel it like my heart beating inside
Somewhere in my life
Theres one light burning

Love
My love for you is a mystery,
Just when I thought life with you,
Was history,
With your last betrayal,
I thought it must be the final nail,
Somehow you pull me back,
My armour opens, just a crack,
Trying not to love you,
Looking for something true,
Trying to be strong,
Holding on too long,
How will you break my heart now?
How much pain will the world allow?
Is it me you want to know?
Why won't you let me grow?
Would you kill life's blessing?
Will you hesitate even for a second?
Love's search is such a hard lesson,
Did you have to twist the knife?
Will you always try to ruin my life?
Will you be happy when I am gone?
Or feel bad because you waited too long?
Why do I feel sad when you treat me so bad?
I am the only one who really cares for you,
Looking for the day when you will be true,
Trying not to love you,
Looking for something true,
Trying to be strong,
Holding on too long,
So take care now, you hear,
I want to make myself clear,
Love's sun shines through that crack,
There is not much time to get me back,
The mysterious power of love is strong,
But this is a world where I do not belong.

Never Gonna Leave Your Side
I feel like a song without the words, a man without a soul, a bird without it's wings, a
heart without a home.
I feel like a knight without a sword, a sky without the sun 'cos you're the one.
I feel like ship beneath the waves, a child who's lost it's way, a door without a key,
a face without a name.
I feel like a breath without the air, and everyday's the same, since you've gone away.
I gotta have a reason to wake up in the morning,
You used to be the one that put a smile on my face.
There are no words that could describe how i miss you,
I miss you, everyday
I'm never gonna leave your side,
and i'm never gonna leave your side, again
I'm still holding on girl, i won't let you go'
'cos when i'm lying in your arms i know i'm home.
They tell me a man can loose his mind living in pain,
the callin times gone by, i'm crying in the rain.
You know i've wasted half the time and i'm on my knees again,
'till you come to me. (yeah)
I gotta have a reason to wake up in the morning,
You used to be that one who put a smile on my face.
There are no words that could describe how i miss you,
and i miss you, everyday.
I'm never gonna leave your side,
and i'm never gonna leave your side.
I am still holding on girl, i won't let you go,
I lay my head against your heart, and i know i'm home
I'm never gonna leave your side,
and i'm never gonna leave your side.
I am still holding on girl, i won't let you go,
'cos when i'm lying in your arms i know i'm home.

Just cruising around in her own sweet way
But shes taking her time
And hes gonna get fooled again
She learned about life
Til she wished shew were dead
So she treats that guy like a hole in the head
Can you see him now
Hell never get lucky again

And she cant get enough

She looks just great and she never slows down
And shes holding his heart and she wont let go again
