Thanks We Give

We must give thanks
though our pockets are bare
We must give thanks
we must show we care

I will try to explain
though I fear I may not
Why give thanks
when nerves are in a knot

Read on if you will
and if by chance at the end
You feel the same way
then my words, I resend

Give a can of green beans
as they are a smile from a child
A simple bag of potatoes
is thoughts running wild

A can of cranberries
may be a hug from a friend
A package of dinner rolls
may seem like love with no end

And what about stuffing
it is what we do on this day
Every stomach should be stuffed
I hope we all feel this way

A butter ball turkey
so many mouths it may feed
A big pumpkin pie
could be a friend in need

If only one verse
touched you in some way
Then your heart gave thanks
or at least, I would say

So please give thanks
and ask that others do the same
Someone's life maybe touched
and yes you, maybe to blame

The Key

Let me in your life
Open up the door
Let me in your heart
Give me the key
Youre the only one
Ill ever want
Show me the way
Give me the key

Ill never let you go

Take me in your arms

Too far gone

Give It Up

All for money
Nothing for time
We want to go
That's our human tight
They sleep on the door mat
They roam the streets
We got to help them
For our future people
We all keep talking 'bout
Brotherly love
The rich stay clean
And the poor gets the glove
I can't sleep at night
When I see their ages
The young and the old
Give it up
If I could only show you love
Baby
Give it up
If I could show you how I feel
Give it up
Give it up
Well, mama was talking
About the ways
They used to live in the early days
Things were simple
And value was right
Everybody got a chance
To live or die
Today you've got it
Tomorrow you don't
But I want more
Give it up
If I could only show you love
Baby
Give it up
If I could show you how I feel
Give it up
Give it up
Love
Give it up
Show your love yeah
Show your lvoe
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Give it up
Give it up
If I could only show you love
Baby
Give it up
If I could show you how I feel
Give it up
Give it up

Give Me A Chance

In time this fire will turn to ashes
The sun will fall out the sky
Still you see no urgency
To spend some time with me
Time with me
I cant believe you havent noticed
Just how long Ive been waitin for you
Ive been such a patient man
But I still dont understand
You wont
Give me a chance to show how much I love you
Give me a chance to show how much I care
How I care
Its hard to know just what youre thinkin
You cloak yourself in mistery
Conversations always brief
Like a sigh with no relief
You wont
Give me a chance to show how much I love you
Give me a chance to show how much I care
Give me a chance to show how much I love you
If you dare
You gotta give me a chance to show how much I love you
Give me a chance to show how much I care
Give me a chance to show how much I love you
Give me a chance

Mother Moon (prayer)

Mother give me the strength to stand strong
Give me the courage to do whats right
Give me the life to live
And the wisdom to give good advice

Mother give me a life to touch
Give me the emotions to feel
Give me the knowledge to know when its false
And to know when its real

Mother give me the hand to hold
Give me the heart with which to love
Give me the eyes to look upon you
In that glittering sky above

Mother give me someone special
Give me love that knows no end
Your the Goddess in the Heavens
You are my mother and my closest friend

All I Have

I feel so unsure
Traveling opened walked in your door
Your eyes glistening
Silly me I'm already missing you

And this is all I have (All I have)
All I have to give
All I have to give
This one last kiss
I know it's not enough
Though our love will never end (no)
One more touch
Is all I have
All I have

You said that we'd forever be in love
And you showed me life like I never knew
Things I never even dreamed of
But your smile just don't seem the same
And when you tell me you feel it too
I'm not sure who's to blame
Cause I gave everything

And this is all I have (All I have)
All I have to give (To give)
All I have to give (To give you)
This one last kiss (This one last kiss)
I know it's not enough (oh

Give a Child...

Proudly for Seth ~ Ryan who graduated as
an Aerospace Engineer last week!

Give a child a great education
You give them the world

Give a child science and math
You give them access

Give a child a sense of wonder
You give them joy

Give a child poetry, paint, l.e.d.s, aluminum foil and sparkles
You give them creativity

Give a child accountability
You give them integrity

Give a child an understanding of spirit
You give them faith

Give a child an entire community
You give them responsilbility

Give a child your undivided time
You give them security

Give a child a life by example
You give them the map for success

Give a child hugs
You give them love!

Give Up

(bernard edwards/nile rodgers)
Give up, give up
Give up youre love to me
Give up, give up
Give up youre love to me
You better listen well
When I tell you
To be on the look out
You cant call for help
cause I know you inside out
Despite all your hideouts
Im no great pretender
Ill make you surrender
So come along quietly
Heres a thought to remember
I have not met a man yet
To escape from my drag-net
Give up, give up
Give up youre love to me
Give up, give up
Give up youre love to me
Give up, give up
Give up youre love to me
Ill give you just the facts man
And you can draw all your own conclusions
Ill keep your mind surrounded
With chains of love so strong
You cant break through them
My arsenal is stocked
With all kinds of seductive weapons
Although your hearts locked up
My love will assist me
So that you cant resist me
Give up, give up
Give up youre love to me
Give up, give up
Give up youre love to me
Give up, give up
Give up youre love to me
Give up, give up
Give up youre love to me
Give up, give up
Give up youre love to me
Give up, give up
Give up youre love to me
No, no, no
Give up, give up
Give up youre love to me
Give up, give up
Give up youre love to me
Give up, give up
Give up youre love to me
Give up, give up
Give up youre love to me
Give up, give up
Give up youre love to me
Give up, give up
Give up youre love to me
Give up, give up
Give up youre love to me
Give up, give up
Give up youre love to me

Not Gonna Give Into It

(olivia newton-john)
No me voy a rendir, no no
No me voy a rendir, no no
No me voy a rendir, no no
No me voy a rendir
Oh Im not gonna give into it no
Im not gonna give into it no no
Im not gonna give into it no
Im not gonna give into it
There are nights when the moon
Shines in my eyes and haunts my mind
And I cant sleep a wink
And I really dont want to think
There are times when I feel
If I sleep Ill die
But I dare not cry
And I run from my tears
And I fight them back with my fears
Oh Im not gonna give into it no
Im not gonna give into it no no
Im not gonna give into it no
Im not gonna give into it
And I feel so alone
For although you care
No one else can share
Its my own misery
In the end its all up to me
Oh Im not gonna give into it no
Im not gonna give into it no no
Im not gonna give into it no
Im not gonna give into it
And I watch you sleep soundly
So peacefully unaware
And your breath is soothing to me
And its good to know youre there
Then the morning comes
With its golden light
And I feel alright
And my heart beats again
But the night is not my friend
Oh Im not gonna give into it no
Im not gonna give into it no no
Im not gonna give into it no
Im not gonna give into it

Love Is Calling Give Me A Chance

Love is calling give me a chance
Give me one more reluctant chance
Love is calling give me hope
Give me a minute an hour
Let me prove I can change
Give me a minute an hour
And I'll prove even a wilting bloom
Can live and fulfill a promise

Love is calling give me a chance
Give me one more reluctant chance
And I'll move heaven and earth
And turn all this flotsam and surf away
And switch on the sun
And turn this hellish feeling into
A kingdom of heaven you can depend upon

Love is calling give me a chance
Give me one more reluctant chance
And like a star I'll make your hear feel fusion
Give me one more reluctant chance
And I'll show you the real reluctant me
That was fearful to be just there
When you turned around for me

Love is calling give me a chance
Give me one more reluctant chance
For you and me!
For you and me!
For you and me!
For you and me!
For you and me!

No One Can Love You More

Give you love 2x
I'm gonna give you all my love, all my love (give you all my love)
Give you love 2x
I'm gonna give you all my love, all my love
I used to be on my own
Every night, every day by myself
Feeling so far from home
How would I know I would go
Down the road that would lead me right into your arms
Destiny told me that you were the one
Stars fill the sky now I've finally found you
Chorus:
No one can love you more
No one can give it all
I'm gonna give you all my loving
No one can love you more
I'll give you my heart and soul
Feel it deep down inside
Give you love 2x
I'm gonna give you all my love, all my love (give you all my love)
Give you love 2x
I'm gonna give you all my love, all my love
I thought I was wasting time
Living in hope that I'd find a new love
Love can be so unkind
How could it be you and me took so long
To discover that dreams do come true
Everything's changed since the day I met you
The sun's gonna shine every time we're together
(Chorus 2x)
Yesterday has gone
And from this moment on you will see
This will be a forever lasting love
Give you love 2x
I'm gonna give you all my love, all my love
Give you love 2x
I'm gonna give you all my love, all my love
(Chorus 2x)
Give you love 2x
I'm gonna give you all my love, all my love
Give you love 2x
I'm gonna give you all my love, all my love
No one can love you more 3x

Fundamental of Liar Chapter CXXXIX: The Gift

Wash your tears 
And give the smile
Push your misery
And give a comfort
End your argument
And give the way
Lower your sword
And give the hand
Throw your pride
And give a chance
Control your anger
And give the thought
Swallow your regret
And give a change
Stop your pretense
And give a sincerity
Forget your loneliness
And give the warmth
Deal with your past
And give a future
Lay your sorrow
And give a sympathy
Resist your whining
And give the proof
Break your silence
And give the hope
Crack your boredom
And give the joy
Peel your skin
And give a color
Cut your hatred
And give the love
Escape your darkness
And give the light

The Package

Clever got me this far
Then tricky got me in
Eye on what I'm after
I don't need another friend
Smile and drop the cliche
'Till you think I'm listening
I take just what I came for
Then I'm out the door again
Peripheral on the package
Don't care to settle in
Time to feed the monster
I don't need another friend
Comfort is a mystery
Crawling out of my own skin
Just give me what I came for, then I'm out the door again
Lie to get what I came for
Lie to get just what I need
Lie to get what I crave
Lie and smile to get what's mine
Eye on what I'm after
I don't need another friend
Nod and watch your lips move
If you need me to pretend
Because clever got me this far
Then tricky got me in
I'll take just what I came for
Then I'm out the door again
Lie to get what I came for
Lie to get what I need now
Lie to get what I'm craving
Lie and smile to get what's mine
Give this to me
Mine, mine, mine
Take what's mine
Mine, mine, mine
Take what's mine
Mine, mine, mine
Lie to get what I came for
Lie to get what I need now
Lie to get what I crave
Lie to smile and get what's mine
Give this to me
Take what's mine
Mine, mine, mine
Take what's mine
Give this to me
Take what's mine, take what's mine, mine...
Take what's mine, take what's mine, take what's mine,
This is mine, mine, mine, not mine

Happy Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving is one Holiday
where your taste buds get the gift
There is lots of cooking
the smell of pie is adrift

There will be turkey and dressing,
cranberries and other side dishes you adore
Dinner rolls will top your plate
And in pain, you go back for more

Some will try to save room
for that special pumpkin pie
And have a slice, room or not
with each bite just say, my oh my

Most will loosen their belt
or maybe undo a button or snap
Then head for the couch
and a Thanksgiving Day nap

There will be leftovers
we will enjoy and share
For on Thanksgiving
no cupboard should be bare

With these simple words
I wish you and yours the best
And I hope in this time of uncertainty
Thanksgiving, passes the test

Give me the reason to live

My mind could be filled with doubt
My heart could waver with despair
But my fate still face ahead

My hair may turn to grey
My body may be weakened
But my words would echo through the time

Give me the strength
Because I'm not strong enough
Give me the hope
Because I don't have any

Give me the love
So I feel safe and warm
Give me the light
So I can walk forward

My dream may be tainted with fear
My world may be painted in darkness
But my life still going on

My burden could be weighted my shoulder
My guilt could consume my will
But my faith would find the sun

Give me the strength
Before I run away
Give me the hope
Before I completely disappear

Give me the love
Even if it will be gone
Give me the light
Even if it is the end

Dont Give Up On Each Other

(b. gibb/g. bitzer)
You say its better to behave
Just like I never met you
Why is it only I can cry
And you can say goodbye in a minute
Dont you remember I was your friend
And you can just erase all those days
And those tender reflections we bear
We promised not to fall in love
But it was there and soon I was in it
Already I was more than your friend
Its harder for me
No words or expressions
Can make you hungry for me
Ive never seen you on your knees
Like Im beggin you
Dont give up, give up on each other
Back where we started
No love to hold us down
Ill never give another anymore than I gave to you
Will never come around
Always and always
You told me love was ever and ever
Together the dream will come true
If we turn back
If you turn back to me
You wont be sorry if you stay
Ill stake my life upon it
Little flame inside us can be fed
Take our precious love to the limit
Its the one that you need and its your friend
Its harder for me
No words or expressions
Anything that makes you worry
Ive never seen you on your knees
And Im in a hurry
How is it you can break my heart
But you cant be sorry
Push away whoever you please
But Im begging you
Dont give up, give up on each other
Back where we started
No love to hold us down
Ill never give another
Anymore than I gave to you
Will never come around, oh
Dont give up, give up on each other
We cant lose tomorrow
Better treasure what weve got
Ill never give another anymore than I gave to you

The love i couldn't give

She begs and craves all day,
for the love i couldn't give
She hopes and filled her fate
with the love i couldn't give.
Her smile is filled with hope,
of the love i couldn't give
her heart is sad but strong
for the love i couldn't give.
Her days is filled with hope and love,
for the love i couldn't give
her heart is mild but torn
because of the love i couldn't give.
She wished for just a day of love,
for the love i couldn't give
my heart is lost and gone
now there is no love i could give.

My heart is far from me,
there's no love i could give
my hope is far but deep withing
for the love i couldn't give.
My past came like a GIFT,
and stole my heart from me.
Leaving me hollow and empty,
now there's no love i could give.
My present wants so much love from me,
but there's no love i could give
i'll bring her smile all day,
even with the love i couldn't give.
