Leah in a Poetic Universe
In this life we pray at sunset,
Cry when we’re vulnerable,
Dream when we’re hopeless,
Find God when we need Him,
Believe in love against all odds,
Try to tell someone I need you
And I won’t hurt you again.
Please, meet me at a book store,
Let me gaze into your eyes,
I’m not the angel you are,
But I have a soul
That believes in kindness.

Under the Sunset Sky
Sitting under the sunset sky
Laying around I wonder why
You value me so much more
Than any other you’ve met before
Why you feel so safe by me
And no the others that you see
Sitting under the sunset sky
I find comfort and I sigh
Knowing all is well by you
Having peace in all I do
Watching my troubles fall away
Not wanting then back any day
Sitting under the sunset sky
When you’re sad I want to cry
Feeling you’re sorrow, hurt and pain
When it’s done, all for gain
Drawing away from the past
What’s done is done and shouldn’t last
Sitting under the sunset sky
Only thing to do is deny
The comfort found when we’re alone
Feelings around us never shown
If only to live for how we feel
Soon this love would we seal
Sitting under the sunset sky
Longing for you by and by
Can’t get you off my mind
All the reasons trying to find
Thinking so hard never to know
Why you might care for me so
Sitting under the sunset sky
Hoping you won’t chose another guy
To be the one, to live the life
That good men live, without strife
To be with you is my goal
Are you the match for my soul?
Sitting under the sunset sky
To be with you when I die
Would be the best of any dream
Looking around, you see me beam
I’ve found the one out of all
Now it’s done, this task not small

20......A life without love
~ A life without love ~
A Sunset without a sun is no sunset at all.
A life without love is no life at all.
A rainbow without colors is no rainbow at all.
And heart without feelings is no human at all.
All these things need something to be,
Either a sun or a person or a crayon,
If only to create what nature said was meant to be.
A sunset makes us feel
as though the world has been born again.
A life with love
lets us know it's worth to let someone in.
A rainbow with colors thats a moment frozen in time,
to be grateful for all that is beautiful
and feel all the glory inside.
Life without love,
is an emptiness
I wish love was as simple as a sunset,
ready to be born again.
But I know in truth love only comes from within.
So I'll keep watching for my sunset,
and looking for that rainbow to shine someday.
Then one day
maybe the love will find its way again.

Pray
When you locked up
When you feel hopeless
When life doesn't come the way you planned it '
Don't lose your faint
pray
Pray the lord
Praying is the answer
When you pray
miracles happen
Let God lead you to the right door
Let God be your strength
The harder the devil get
The you will pray
The more the devil attack you
The more you pray
Just pray

As The Sunset
As the sunset I think to myself why.
As the sunset I sit down and cry.
Wondering why life got to be a lie.
As the sunset I dropp my head.
As the sunset I think about you instead.
How can I go home and get in my bed.
As the sunset I say no.
As the sunset I just don't know.
My love that I have for u just wont go.
As the sunset I look to the sky.
As the sunset I wait to die.
Tell me how to say good-bye.
As the sunset I say a prayer.
As the sunset how can I dare.
I'm giving up, I just don't care.
Sitting by the window watching the sun to set.
Knowing I'm going to see you again,
and you coming back home at the end.

Just Beyond The Sunset
Just beyond the sunset
Someone waits for me
Just beyond the sunset
Lies my destiny
Where the purple mountains
Lie in deep tranquillity
There I’ll find the treasure
Of love eternally
Just beyond the sunset
Waits someone so fair
Just beyond the sunset
All alone they wait there
Their hair is golden
The colour of the sand
Their eyes sparkle in the night
Like diamonds in your hand
Just beyond the sunset
Lies a home for me
Where the world is peaceful
Like a paradise should be
Just beyond the sunset
Someday is where you’ll find me

Pray For Love
Yeah, oh yeah,
Pray for love,
Yeah, oh yeah,
I lift my eyes up to heaven above
And what Im asking for is all Ive been dreaming of
True love is so hard to find
Wont you pray
Wont you pray
Won't you pray
Diamonds and pearls and fortune and fame
Some ask for sunshine and others for rain
Is what I'm asking for asking too much?
Won't you pray
Won't you pray
Won't you pray
Oh yeah,
C'mon and pray for love
Pray for love, love, love, love
Late at night when I'm alone in my room
Whispering your name by the light of the midnight moon
I believe that day will come
Won't you pray
Won't you pray
Won't you pray
There's just too many lonely people
Too many lonely people in this world
Too many lonely lonely people
Won't you pray
Won't you pray
Oh, yeah
C'mon and pray for love
Pray for love, love, love, love
C'mon and pray for love
Yeah, yeah
C'mon and pray for love
C'mon and pray for love
Pray, pray, pray for love, love, love
There's just too many lonely people
Too many lonely people in this world
Too many lonely lonely people
Too many lonely people in this world
Too many lonely boys
Too many lonely girls
Too many lonely people in this world
C'mon and pray for love
Oh, yeah
C'mon and pray for love
Pray for love
C'mon and pray for love
Pray for love.

Still In Love With You
(Travis Tritt)
Tell me why do you love to make me cry
Is there a reason why you treat me so unkind
It seems you try to hurt me with everything you do
I guess you could call me crazy 'cause I'm still in love with you
Tell me why is your heart as cold as ice
Oh is there a demon hidden just behind your eyes
Well I dream someday you'll love me but that dream just don't come true
But that don't keep me from wishin' 'cause I'm still in love with you
There was a time I thought my love would set you free
But now you say all that's binding you is me
How can that be
Tell me why do I go on believing your lies
And why everytime you hurt me that I'm always so surprised
I know that I should give up, find somebody new
But it's a hopeless situation 'cause I'm still in love with you
Girl there was a time I thought my love would set you free
But now you say all that's binding you is me
Girl how can that be
Tell me why do I go on believing your lies
And why everytime you hurt me that I'm always so surprised
I know that I should give up, find somebody new
But it's a hopeless situation 'cause I'm still in love with you
Oh girl still in love with you
'Cause I'm still in love with you

Love To Be Vulnerable
I am vulnerable
To the tempting depth of the sky
and the stars beyond my eye.
I am vulnerable
To the damp green moss
The soil soaks in
To the smell of dreams
an evening of birdsongs exude.
I love to be vulnerable
To the belief that this world
Despite the stinks of hatred
Will survive by love!

Vulnerable
Everywhere I look I see her smile / her absent-minded eyes / and she has kept me wondering for so long / how this thing could go wrong.
It seems to me that we are both the same / playing the same game / but as darkness falls this true love falls apart / into a riddle of her heart.
Shes so vulnerable, like china in my hands / shes so vulnerable and I dont understand / I could never hurt the one I love / shes all Ive got / but shes so vulnerable / oh so vulnerable.
Days like these no one should be alone / no heart should hide away / her touch is gently conquering my mind / theres nothing words can say.
Shes coloured all the secrets of my soul / Ive whispered all my dreams / but just as nighttime falls this vision falls apart / into a riddle of her heart, yea.
Shes so vulnerable, like china in my hands / shes so vulnerable and I dont understand / I could never hurt someone I love / shes all Ive got / but shes so vulnerable / oh so vulnerable.
Dont hide your eyes...

How Frail Fragile And Vulnerable We All Are
HOW FRAIL FRAGILE AND VULNERABLE WE ALL ARE
How frail fragile and vulnerable we all are
How in an instant we can be destroyed –
Who knows where when how
The next Disaster will come?
Who knows who the next victims will be?
We pray it will not be us –
How frail fragile and vulnerable we all are
And who knows where when how
The next Disaster will come?

And I Dream
When I'm lost
You take my hand and make me burn
All of the time
Turn my life around
I feel lost, take my life and make me shine
You feel life, life won't let you down
With the love we take
Have I ever let you down?
Travel round and see the world
Is there something I should find?
And I dream
Nothing I can find
And I dream
Nothing I can find
So to life
Let me whisper in your ear
Say the words
I'm what you long to hear
And a place we can go to is in my mind
I love life, there's no way you can be mine
With the love we take
Have I ever let you down?
Travel round and see the world
Is there something I should find?
And I dream
Nothing I can find
And I dream
Nothing I can find
You buy a diamond for my throne
Then comes a penthouse, on a hill
but my need to dream will still go on and on
All of the time
All of the time
All of the time
And I dream
Nothing I can find
And I dream
Nothing I can find
You buy a diamond for my throne
Then comes a penthouse, on a hill
but my need to dream will still go on and on
You buy a diamond for my throne
Then comes a penthouse, on a hill
but my need to dream will still go on and on
You buy a diamond for my throne
The comes a penthouse, on a hill
but my need to dream will still go on and on

Dream Baby
I found the boy for me
Hes my dream baby
He doesnt know that i
That I almost die when
When he walks by & says hello
Hes unlike the guys in books, hes
Not really great on looks, but
But I dont care, I love him so
Chorus:
And I feel so good whenever hes around
Feel so good when hes around
Wo oh oh oh, I dream of him each night, i
Dream that he holds me tight &
Somehow make that dream come true
Im gonna pray for the
Pray for the day he says
Hey, pretty baby, I love you
(1st 2 lines of chorus)
(instrumental)
(repeat chorus minus the starting and I)
Im gonna pray for the
Pray for the day he says
Baby, I love you

Wo oh oh, wo oh oh, I love you

Dreaming Reality
In the real world, as in dreams,
Nothing is quite as it seems.
To see what we have never seen,
To be what we have never been,
To shed the chrysalis, learn to fly,
Depart the earth, kiss the sky,
To be reborn, be someone new,
Is this a dream or is it true?
Is my life in fact a dream?
Are things not always as they seem?
Are daylight hours reality,
Or do I dream eternally?
In the dream world or the real,
We cannot know what we can't feel.
What is not a dream by day,
Comes to us at night to stay.
Dreams - vivid colors of life,
Or fleeting, obscure, murky strife?
Façade of reality brings,
To the mind, exquisite things:
Love, regret, memories, cheer,
Imagination, even fear.
The lives we live appear, it seems,
To be a dream within a dream.
A long dream of hopeless sorrow,
I'll dream my life again tomorrow.

For My Wedding
(larry john mcnally)
For my wedding, I will dress in black
And never again will I look back
Ah, my dark angels we must part
For Ive made a sanctuary of my heart
To want what I have
To take what Im given with grace
For this I pray
On my wedding day
For my wedding, I dont want violins
Or sentimental songs about thick and thin
I want a moment of silence and a moment of prayer
For the love well need to make it in the world out there
To want what I have
To take what Im given with grace
For this I pray
On my wedding day
On my wedding day
I dream, and my dreams are all glory and light
Thats what Ive wanted for my life
And if it hasnt always been that way
Well, I can dream and I can pray
On my wedding day
So what makes us any different from all the others
Who have tried and failed before us
Maybe nothing, maybe nothing at all
But I pray were the lucky ones; I pray we never fall
To want what we have
To take what were given with grace
For these things I pray
On my wedding day
On my wedding day

I Never Knew Love
I asked you to come inside my heart
And there you were
I asked for a pure and gentle start
And there you were
I asked fif this love could ever be
The way that I've dreamt of it you see
I never knew love
I asked you to open up my eyes
And there you were
I asked for the keys to paradise
And there you were
They say only ask and you'll receive
I never knew that applied to me
I never knew love
Life is good life is sweet
It's the way we perceive
Cynics say we can dream
Change your mind heal the world
It's easy just believe
I asked for a change in all my life
And there you were
You're everything I had hoped to find
Yes, there you were
I hope and I pray that you will find
A peace and a joy as great as mine
All about love I hope you find love

December Ends
Light breeze of the afternoon call me
The air brings silence and memories
The sky opens the darken time
Sunset makes a view of an ocean, warm water I can feel
The wind threw me back, into a place of dream
My mind’s is peaceful with an unheard melody passing by
My soul is empty for now with life on the background
The freezing water rinse down my hopeless scream
Shivering knowing i found it again
Thought of back on the road
Out from a hole of mislead beginning
Im on the line of exploding the joy
Sunset mirage fills me in
This is my answer, this is what I want
This is my december

Wasting Love
Maybe one day Ill be an honest man
Up till now Im doing the best I can
Long roads, long days,
Of sunrise to sunset, sunrise to sunset
Dream on brother while you can
Dream on sister I hope you find the one
All of our lives covered up quickly by the tides of time
Spend your days full of emptyness
Spend your years full of lonliness
Waisting love in a desperate caress
Rolling shadows of nights
Dream on brother while you can
Dream on sister I hope you find the one
All of our lives covered up quickly by the tides of time
Sands are flowing and the lines are in your hand
In your eyes I see the hunger
And the desperate cry that tears the night

Somebody To Love
Can anybody find me
Somebody to love?
Each morning I get up I die a little
Cant barely stand on my feet
Take a look in the mirror and cry
Lord, what youre doing to me
I have spent all my years in believing you
But I just cant get no relief, lord
Somebody, somebody
Can anybody find me someone to love
I work hard everyday of my life
I work till I ache my bones
At the end I take home my
Hard earned pay all of my own
I get down on my knees and I start to pray
til the tears run down from my eyes, lord
Somebody, somebody
Can anybody find me somebody to love
Everyday I try and I try
But everybody want to put me down
They say Im goin crazy
They say I got a lot of water in my brain
Got no common sense
I got nobody to believe
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Ooh, somebody
Somebody can anybody find me
Somebody to love
Got no feel, I got no rhythm
I just keep losing my beat
Im ok, Im alright
Aint gonna face no defeat
I just got to get out of this prison cell
One day Im gonna be free, lord
Find me somebody to love
Find me somebody to love
Find me somebody to love
Find me somebody to love
Find me somebody to love
Find me somebody to love
Find me somebody to love
Find me somebody to love
Find me somebody to love
Somebody, somebody, somebody, somebody
Somebody find me somebody
Find me somebody to love
Can anybody find me
Somebody to love
Find me somebody to love!
Find me somebody to love!
Find me, find me, find me, find me

Into The Sunset
(mike batt)
Producer for bonnie: mike batt
Recorded in 1990 as part of the soundtrack to the animated tv series 'the dreamstone'. the lyrics are taken from the soundtrack sleeve
The stories we could tell
God knows what we've both been through
You caught me when i fell
The same as i did for you
Don't let the wild winds blow out the flame
It won't ever be the same
Into the sunset once again together
After the darkness and the rain
Into the sunset we could ride forever
There goes that dream again
The dangers that we face
Are great if we let them be
No army could replace
The strength that you give to me
Don't let the wild woods lead us astray
And don't let us lose our way
Into the sunset once again together
After the darkness and and the rain
Into the sunset we could ride forever
There goes that dream again
Into the sunset once again together
After the darkness and and the rain
Into the sunset we could ride forever
There goes that dream again
