Ode To The Heart
Ode to the heart that continues to feel
Through the many years of heart-ache
The lingering hurt
The many lies
The many tears shed
The many feelings being hidden
To this I say ode to the heart that continues to feel
For some hearts they turn to stone
Shut everyone out
Some even leave this world
This is why I say
Ode to the heart that continues to feel
With all the hurt in this world

Pathetic (my heart is the heart...)
my heart is a rat
with ADD
and is deprived of the
ability to learn
my heart is a fish
that's always looking
for the next hook
while his guts hang
strung on another line
my heart is the child
without senses
who grabs the red hot element
and never lifts his palm
my heart is the kid
who gets his ass kicked
at recess
and continues teasing
my heart is the boxer
with both eyes bleeding
round three
yet continues fighting
my heart is the dog
that challenges another
twice his fight and size
my heart is the drunk
stunted and slurring
reaching for another drink
my heart is pathetic
and needs assistance
it's selfish
and self destructive
my heart is the heart
that continues loving
long after it's
considered sane
my heart is the heart
that should be locked up
and never be allowed
to love again...
The World Still Spins
The world continues to spin,
It doesn't know where I've been,
Or where I'm going to go,
That, it doesn't need to know.
The world continues to spin,
As I continue to sin,
The places I'm going to see,
Places where I shouldn't even be.
The world continues to spin,
I feel like a washed up has been,
But isn't that what we all are,
For none of you are all that far.
The world continues to spin,
As I try to wash down the gin,
But it's all the same for death,
It always ends in one last breath.

Behind the Sun
One day while bathing in the sea
my talking dolphin spoke to me
he spoke to me in symphony
from freedom's peace beneath the sea
he looked to me eyes full of love
said yes we live behind the sun
Behind the sun
The sun goes up
and the sun gets down
but like the heart of the sun
my heart continues to pound
Now while I shower in the rain
I watch my dolphin swim away
the one who listens to the surf
can feel the pulse beat of the earth
and like my dolphin swims so free
the sun does swim into the sea
Behind the sun
An island flying through the sky
one day your son might ask you why
and if you son should be a girl
she too might ask you of this world
the sun shines sweet upon your beach
and yes my dolphin loves to teach
Behind the sun
The sun goes up
and the sun gets down
but like the heart of the sun
my heart continues to pound

Heart Of Stone
(elliot wolff, gregg tripp)
We need to lay in each others arms
Theres no where else to go
Its all so easy and I want you to know
Therell never be another one who could get this close to me
Everything you give to me is everything Ive ever dreamed of
Even when you turn your back now
I can feel you reaching for me
Even when you walk away
Ill still know where youre hiding
I cant believe youve got a heart of stone
Ive seen your tears fall when you thought you were alone
I cant believe youve got a heart of stone
I cant believe it
You try to make like Im not there
To show me how you feel
You dont have to hurt me with the hurt that you wont reveal
Therell never be another one who could get this close to you
I can give you everything that youve ever dreamed of
Even when you turn your back now
I can feel you reaching for me
Even when you walk away
I still know where youre hiding
I cant believe youve got a heart of stone
Ive seen your tears fall when you thought you were alone
I cant believe youve got a heart of stone
I cant believe it
I cant believe youve got a heart of stone
The more you try to hide your love, the more it shows
I cant believe youve got a heart of stone
I cant believe it
I cant believe youve got a heart of stone
The more you try to hide you love, the more it shows
I cant believe youve got a heart of stone
I cant believe it
I cant believe youve got a heart of stone
Your eyes say yes even when you tell me no
I cant believe youve got a heart of stone
I cant believe it

Where Does My Heart Truly Lie Now? ? ?
waking up this morning, , ,
trying to search and feel my heart, , ,
can my heart still feel, , ,
will it still be able to recognize such feelings, , ,
with all the hurt i'm feeling right now, , ,
with all the questions arising from deep within, , ,
all my confusions, , , all my unuttered longings, ,
will it all have the answers that it need, ,
oh my heart, , my so fragile heart, , , ,
why do we need to fall, , and be hurt in the end, ,
and yet, , why do we let our heart go thru it, , ,
over and over and over again, ,
when will we ever learn, , ,
when will our heart ever learn, , ,
will it ever learn, , not to fall, , , ,
will it ever learn to be wise, ,
oh my heart, , , my so fragile heart, , ,
where will all this emotions bring u, , ,
will u have the strength to carry on, , ,
when will u ever have the the right to speak, ,
and say, , , enough, ,
where, , ,
where will my heart lie now, , ,

I Can Only Hope
Maybe one day your world
Will crash around you
And what you wanted
Will disappear forever
I can only hope
You'll know what I went through
Maybe one day you'll feel
Used and abandoned
And your empty heart
Will ache unstoppably
I can only hope
You'll know what I felt
Maybe one day your life
Won't seem worth living
And every moment you shed
Will hurt more and more
I can only hope
You'll know my emptiness
Maybe one day your eyes
Will feel dry as sand
And all the tears you cry
Will sting as they fall
I can only hope
You'll know how much I cried
Maybe one day you'll wonder
Why nothing seems right
And everything you try to do
Will always be a reminder
I can only hope
You'll know my memories
Maybe one day your hurt
Won't seem to go away
And all the days that pass
Will be filled with aching
I can only hope
You'll know the pain I felt
Maybe one day you'll know
Every tear I shed
And every feeling I had
Was because of you
I can only hope
You'll know what you put me through

If Wishes And Dreams Were Money
If wishes and dreams were money, I would be a millionaire;
If they were all I needed, I would already be there,
Privy to your resplendent, amazing grace!
Nothing may serve to recompense or replace
What we have already, tragically lost-
We pay each and every day, our grievous lamentation, the cost!
With each day that passes, there is more about you to learn,
And all the while, this Father's heart continues to yearn
For Daughters that he does not even know,
Yet loves more than anyone-a love that continues to grow,
Despite our estrangement, by those who do not consider who
They might hurt-whose very responsibility was to consider you!
One day, my dreams and wishes will come true-
I will be the richest man in the world, when I again know you!

A Guy Like You
why is it
that you
manage to
leave me in tears
I know that I
was just a friend
but now I can't
look at you the same
it's been weeks
since we last talked
but to my heart
it's been years
everyone knows
that I've crashed and burned
but no one knows
the truth I feel for you
I've felt your pain
you hope and dreams
but why is it
that you don't feel my pain
I want to cry
every time that I
see you there
it's too much for me
I've been hurt
many times before
but none has hurt
as bad as this
my heart is pounding
this is true
you're the cure
if only you knew
you know a little
how I feel
but you don't know
that you mean so much more
you are the smile
I have when I wake
you're in the dreams
I don't want to wake from
I need you
right here and now
I need you're smile
I need you're grace
but you left me broken
more than you'd guess
but now i see
you're far from me
you're dreams go
further than mine
I guess I've gatta learn
the pains of love
maybe my problem is
not that you hurt me
but that I won't give up
and see it be
I know what everyone says
some say it's so cute
that me out of anyone
is falling for a guy like you
you are far from normal
and that I love
how you're so open
and will push for dreams
you are like
an open book
that I thought
I could read fine
but as it turns out
I was wrong again
I'm such a fool
whenever I'm around you
I truly care for you
yes I said it before
but nothing can break
these feelings for you
only you can make me
crash and burn
I know I said I would for you
but it's all too much
you have this smile
that I can't forget
no matter what I do
I always think of you
you're my inspiration
to reach for the stars
but to me the stars
resemble your eyes
I gave you my heart
but now I see
it was just foolishness
for thinking of you and me
I've shed some tears
but that's nothing new
nor is what I feel
everyday for you
i wake with a smile
because i get to see you
I wake up with pain
because you broke me
it's all so confusing
what I've been through
only because now I wish
I never told you.

Cry
My heart been hurt so much
All because I keep getting closer to you
I will break down easily and
Cry
After you have hurt me
My tears will fall down once in while
Just want to be alone in dark
No one to bother me
I just let this get way to far
I can't stop leaving you alone
My heart want more and more from you, but
You don't care how I feel and break my heart to pieces
I feel like shattered glass
I can't stand up again
Knowing I'm getting near you again,
I'm going break down easy and get hurt
Once again I
Cry
Over you because I'm not realized that
You keep doing it
Cry

Stigma
he rose from the ashes
after the fire
he lost his house and
everything he has are
nothing but chars
years the stigma sticks
the trauma continues to rig
his heart
it is not gone
like the way he continues to live
his life rising as a star
though distant but shining still

No Apologies
Whenever we talk about sun all I see is the rain
It's like looking for tears in a ocean
I'm hearing your words like the wind
They blow straight through my heart
Will you ever give in to emotion
And we hurt the ones that we love the most
Why we do only heaven knows
And I don't know why I'm still holding on...holding on
[CHORUS:]
I reach in my heart to see
If your love is alive in me
But now I feel alone
My feelings turn to stone
My heart makes no apologies
When an apology's made it isn't always enough
To erase all the past in a moment
Whenever I need you the most
You always leave me behind
With a word from your lips I'm alone
You've been blind not to realize
All the love that I hold inside
So tell me why do I keep holding on...holding on
[CHORUS]
What I need is your sympathy
Like a light flowing into me
But I will never give up holding on...holding on
[CHORUS]
...my heart makes no apologies no no
my feelings turn to stone... I make no apologies

When the outside doesn't match the in.
Why do you feel the weight of the world,
though your shoulders are still straight?
Why do you feel cold inside,
though it shortens not your gait?
Why is your heart black and blue,
though from the outside the truth you hide?
Why do you wish it weren't so,
when by lies and deceit you abide?
Why do you wish they knew the truth,
when your feelings you put away?
Why do you still try and act strong,
when you don't think you can go another day?
Why do you fight this war,
when you're fighting all alone?
Why do you shut the door,
and pretend that your heart, has turned to stone?
Hard To Believe
Written by david jones, kim capli,& eddie brick
Its hard to believe that you could ever doubt me
I try not to hear the things you say about me
And if you feel like I feel, please, Id like to explain
My love for you is more than just a game
I hope and I pray well get together someday
Then youd see right away how hurt I am when I say
That if you feel what I feel, you wont go away
A broken heart cant be the only way
And if you feel what I feel, you wont go away
A broken heart, a broken heart, cant be the only way
Now you must believe that when I saw you today
Oh, I just couldnt say, you held his hand the same way
If you dont feel what I feel, Ill go on my way
But as I turn my heart still wants to say
I love you, I need you, I do love you

Heart Of Hearts
I found myself
In a cross condition
Maybe it was her
Maybe it was me
Somethin's wrong
There was somethin' missin'
I couldn't stand to stay
So I had to leave.
A half a tank of gas
Brought me this distance
Half a mind to run
Got me this far
There's a woman willin'
Where there ain't no witness
'Cept the one that lives
In my heart of hearts.
My heart of hearts
Won't lie to me
It won't tell me things
That I can't believe
I better stop this thing
Before it starts
'Cause it don't feel right
To my heart of hearts.
I could be tastin'
Stolen kisses
But that might
Tear my world apart
When it all comes down
To my wish of wishes
I'd have to go with
My heart of hearts.
My heart of hearts
Won't lie to me
It won't tell me things
That I can't believe
I better stop this thing
Before it starts
'Cause it don't feel right
To my heart of hearts.
I better stop this thing
Before it starts
'Cause it don't feel right
To my heart of hearts.
My heart of hearts
Won't lie to me...

Process continues
All the eggs don’t hatch.
All the seeds don’t burst.
All the loves don’t spark.
Yet the process continues.
All the chicks don’t live.
All the sprouts don’t grow.
All the loves don’t bloom.
But the process continues.
Pest takes toll of the siblings.
Drought takes the toll of the seedlings.
Fate stalls many loves in making.
Still the process continues.
The process spurts the hope.
The process spurs the heart.
The process thrills the senses.
Evolution, thus, continues.

Hold On Dear
hold on my dear
and let me leave
for though dark time is upon us
the suffering will heal
hold me near at heart
and wipe your tears
just know am always near
am here when you're alone
and am here when you're in a crowd
and though it hurt
and i know it hurts
but know i am proud
and though life was short
my journey continues in the clouds
so dry your eyes and hold on
for theres good in the bad
as theres rain in droughts
remember me in life and
put a smile at my grave
laugh when you think of me
just let me feel like i never left
so hold on my dear for the
hard times is truly upon us
look up at the stars and smile
as i move on

Careless Heart
Roy orbison/diane warren/albert hammond
I had somebody,somebody who loved me.someone so good to me.
You were my angel, you were my heaven, but i was too blind to see.
I let you slip away, i guess i never knew.i had the world with you .
I'd be there, still be there in your arms.
If not for my careless heart.you'd still be loving me.
If not for my careless heart.you'd still be mine.
I wouldn't have this hurt inside.i wouldn't have this tears to cry.
If not for my careless heart.if not for my careless heart.
I had my chances,i took advantage.i took it all too far.
So now you're gone, and i'm all alone,alone with my lonely heart.
I let it fall apart,i didn't care enough.i lost your precious love.
You'd be here,still be here in my arms.
If not for my careless heart.you'd still be loving me.
If not for my careless heart.you'd still be mine.
I wouldn't have this hurt inside.i wouldn't have this tears to cry.
If not for my careless heart.if not for my careless heart.
You'd still be mine.
I'd be loving you, i'd be holding you,i'd be loving you.
If not for my careless heart.
I wouldn't have this hurt inside.i wouldn't have this tears to cry.
If not for my careless heart.if not for my careless heart.
If not for my careless heart.you'd still be loving me.
If not for my careless heart.you'd still be mine.
I wouldn't have this hurt inside.i wouldn't have this tears to cry.
If not for my careless heart.if not for my careless heart.
If not for my careless heart.you'd still be loving me.
You'd be loving me.you'd still be mine.
I wouldn't have this hurt inside
I wouldn't have these tears to cry....

My Heart Goes Out To You
I see the tears you cry
Theyre tears I cannot dry
Know what youre going through
My heart goes out to you
Theres nothing I can say
To take your pain away
Im not sure what to do
My heart goes out to you
You know I feel so bad
To see you hurt so bad
But angels spread their wings
Over everything
Theres one thing no one knows
Why things go the way they go
Well never have a clue
My heart goes out to you
When youre overcome
When you need someone
Ill be the friend you need
Like you have been to me
I see the tears you cry
One day theyll all be dry
But until they do
My heart goes out to you
My heart goes out to you
My heart goes out to you

Million Miles Away
Written by ricki & kim wilde
A while ago you looked at me
And said thered come a time
Youd have to go away
You put it on the line
And told me we should only
Take each moment day by day
Well I know that theres a time in life
When people change
And go their separate ways
But I miss you, more each day
Youre a million miles away
But I feel you in my heart
Though it hurt to leave that way
Well we knew that from the start
Cos you never did pretend
Our love would never end
There is no way to love
No rules that we can follow
Nothing simple or defined
We make our own
And some we borrow
Hoping it wont end
But darling now we know
Weve got no-where left to go
Youre a million miles away
But I feel you in my heart
Through it hurt to leave that way
Well we knew that from the start
Cos you never did pretend
Our love would never end
Our love would never end
And if I travelled to the stars
Would I find out where you are
Touch the secret in your heart
And set it free
Or would you turn away
Cos I miss you more each day
Youre a million miles away
But I feel you in my heart
Through it hurt to leave that way
Well we knew that from the start
Cos you never did pretend
Our love would never end
Our love would never end
