The Book Of Love
The book of love is long and boring
No one can lift the damn thing
It's full of charts and facts and figures and instructions for dancing
But I
I love it when you read to me
And you
You can read me anything
The book of love has music in it
In fact that's where music comes from
Some of it is just transcendental
Some of it is just really dumb
But I
I love it when you sing to me
And you
You can sing me anything
The book of love is long and boring
And written very long ago
It's full of flowers and heart-shaped boxes
And things we're all too young to know
But I
I love it when you give me things
And you
You ought to give me wedding rings
And I
I love it when you give me things
And you
You ought to give me wedding rings
And I
I love it when you give me things
And you
You ought to give me wedding rings
You ought to give me wedding rings

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

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

Different For Girls
He: what the hell is wrong with you tonight?
I can't seem to say or do the right thing
Wanted to be sure you're feeling right
Wanted to be sure we want the same thing
She said:
She: i don't believe it
You can't - possibly mean it
Don't we - all want the same thing?
Don't we?
Who said anything about love?
He: no, not love, she said
She: don't you know that it's different for girls?
Don't give me love
He: no, not love, she said
She: don't you know that it's different for girls?
Both: you're all the same
He: mama always told me: save yourself
Take a little time and find the right girl
Then again don't end up on the shelf
Logical advice gets you in a whirl
I know - a lot of things that
You don't - you wanna hear some?
She said:
She: just give me something
Anything
Give me all you got but not love
He: no, not love, she said
She: don't you know that it's different for girls?
Don't give me love
He: no, not love, she said
She: don't you know that it's different for girls?
You're all the same
He: you're all the same
She: you're all the same
He: you're all the same
She: you're all the same
He: you're all the same
She: you're all the same
He: you're all the same
She: give me anything but not love
He: no, not love, she said
She: don't you know that it's different for girls?
Don't give me love
He: no, not love, she said
She: don't you know that it's different for girls?
Don't give me love
He: no, no, no, not love, she said
She: don't you know that it's different for girls?
Don't give me love
He: no, not love, she said

Declaration
Child, I will give you rings to wear,
And, if you love them, dainty dresses,
Flowers for your bosom and your hair,
And, if you love them, fond caresses;
And I will give you of my days,
And I will leave, when you require it,
My dreams, my books, my wonted ways,
Content if only you desire it.
Love's captive, now his fugitive,
All this I give you, for my part.
I ask but what I cannot give,
I ask no more than this: your heart.

Symbol of love
When you and your wife had your baby, he became the ultimate symbol of love that you two share.
He represents a love that will stand the test of time and that shines brighter than a flare.
Some people think that wedding rings are the symbol of love between a man and his wife.
But wedding rings are just pieces of metal and they can't touch the symbol of love that comes from this tiny life.

If I Had The World To Give
If I had the world to give, Id give it to you
Long as you live, would you let it fall, or hold it all in your arms?
If I had a song to sing, Id sing it to you
As long as you live, lullaby or maybe a plain serenade
Wouldnt you laugh, dance, and cry or be afraid at the change you made
I may not have the world to give to you
But maybe I have a tune or two
Only if you let me be your world
Could I ever give this world to you
But I will give what love I have to give,
I will give what love I have to give,
I will give what love I have to give, long as I live.
If I had a star to give, Id give it to you
Long as you live, would you have the time
To watch it shine, watch it shine
Or ask for the moon and heaven too? Id give it to you.
Well maybe Ive got no star to spare, or anything fine or even rare,
Only if you let me be your world, could I ever give this world to you.
Could I ever give this world to you.

Theres No Way
[intro]
Ooh, ooh, no way
Theres no way
I can love you like you need
If you cant say you love me
Theres no way
I can give you what you need
If you cant give it back to me
Said theres nothing I can do
Cuz you cant seem to get it through your head
That I really love you
Stop playing more, you know I do
I feel you
What does it take to make you see
Im right here for you
What do I have to say
Baby, will you listen to me
Theres no way
Theres no way
I can love you like you need
If you cant say you love me
Theres no way
I can give you what you need
If you cant give it back to me
Every other night
After we tell each other were in love
We seem to start a fight
Listen to me Im tired of being bothered
I dont mean to put you down
But my options are running out
I dont mean to cut you off
But we need to have a talk
Cuz theres no way
Theres no way
I can love you like you need
If you cant say you love me
Theres no way
I can give you what you need
If you cant give it back to me
Baby can you tell me why we have to fight
(I would rather not hurt you)
I just want everything to be alright
(whats the matter with me loving you? )
I just wanna live for you
The way you wanna live for me
I want every little thing
All the little things to be
Just the way they used to be
Oh tell me
Theres no way
I can love you like you need
If you cant say you love me
Theres no way
I can give you what you need
If you cant give it back to me
Theres no way
I can love you like you need
If you cant say you love me
Theres no way
I can give you what you need
If you cant give it back to me
Theres no way
I can love you like you need
If you cant say you love me
Theres no way
I can give you what you need
If you cant give it back to me

I Was Born for You!
In this I know I was born for you:
Everytime I look at you
I see the one for love of whom
I had left my mother's womb
Who I see is a you gentle and kind—
You are one of a kind—
I see the dove of love hovering
Over you, tender and loving
And it is not for lack of someone else
That with you I want to ring the wedding bells;
It is not for want of bling-bling
That I will give you a wedding ring
For as the bells tell of love that is complete
With such love am I replete;
As the rings tell of love that is endless
My love for you is seamless
Hence I look forward to when we'll walk down the aisle
En route to the altar;
Ahead of the bridal train file
Saying our love will not falter
On that day I hope to say 'I do'
And to thereafter stay forever with you
To me will you never become a moo
For together shall we overcome all anti-love coups
Believe that it is with you
That I want to spend the rest of my life
We will never engage in kung fu
As I will treasure you forever—as my beloved wife!

Till The Day I Die
(coverdale)
When ice cold winds of winter
Chill me to the bone,
An thoughts of summer breezes
Turn my heart to stone
Thats when I need a hand to guide me,
When its more than I can bear
A shoulder I can cry on,
Someone to lead me there
An give me love,
Give me love,
Give me love
Till the day I die,
Till the day I die
Slowly I awaken
To the weavers plan for me,
To drift upon the waters
Of my own uncertainty,
To look for a companion
Who will share my destiny,
A guiding hand to understand
An walk to road with me
An give me love,
Give me love,
Give me love
Till the day I die,
Till the day I die
I wanna be the master of my destiny,
I never wanna crawl an beg for no sympathy,
When everything I have is yours,
An all I ask of you
Is give me love.
Give me love,
Give me love
Till the day I die,
Till the day I die
I never wanna be the first
To show Im down,
But, Im never gonna wear the frozen smile of a clown
When everything I have is yours
And all I ask of you
Is give me love
Give me love,
Give me love
Till the day I die,
Till the day I die
Give me love,
Give me love,
Give me love.
Till the day I die
Give me love,
Give me love,
Give me love.
Till the day I die
Till the day I die...

Open up the door

Show me the way

I wont let you down
Ill never let you go
Ill love you forever
Give me the key
Youre the only one
That knows what I need
Take me in your arms

Give me the key

Another second more
Im down on my knees
Give me the key

Too far gone
You know how I feel

That's wonderful love.......
How wonderful to win your heart with a smile
How wonderful to kiss your lips with hopeful
How wonderful to get your heart with love
How wonderful to see your soul in me
How wonderful to laugh with your sweet words
How wonderful to hold you tight and kiss gently
How wonderful to fly with you to the dream land
How wonderful to drive you through the mountain valleys
How wonderful to be with you within four walls
How wonderful to give you what you look for
How wonderful to hug you and keep you in my arms
How wonderful to wear our wedding rings on our wedding day
How wonderful to bind your love to last for ever

Give Love To The Children
Give Love to the children Children need love everyday
Give love to the children Guide them on their way
Love's like a burning flame consumes all that stands in the way
Love is the only power on earth to take all the hatred away
GIVE LOVE TO THE CHILDREN set the children free
To make their own decisions then they will clearly see
Love is the sun the moon and the stars love is a golden ring
Love is the one thing the whole world desires be it beggar or king
GIVE LOVE TO THE CHILDREN youth has not long to stay
Love is a long term investment the best you will find any day
Love like the rising sun takes all the darkness away
Our children will tell their children and their childrens children will say
Give love to the children they are our crock of gold
and if perchance they ever stray they will come back to the fold
Give love to the children the children of today
Give love to the children and love will come to stay.

Girls Shopping Birthday Wish
I’d love to give you jewelry, from necklaces to rings
Bracelets, pins and pendants, sparkly kinds of things
I’d love to give you clothing from shirts and skirts and shoes
I’d love to take you shopping, so you can get whatever you choose
But your daddy told me not to, I pleaded with him hard
But he insisted he’d buy you those things, so I’m sending you this card.
** Please rate my poems - I'd love to hear your thoughts.**

What U Give U Get Back
Music : rudolf schenker, peter wolf
Lyrics: klaus meine, rudolf schenker
What you give, you get back
As long as I can think Ive been
Running to be free
Theres not a place that could have been too far
Had nothing but a bag of dreams
And this old guitar
A couple of songs to play for you an me
Theres so much love inside of me
That wants to be released
I cant help it so I give it all away
What you give you get it back
So take my love just because its all I have
Take my heart take my soul
I just never want it back
As long as Ive been living
Ive had music in my veins
I cant go on without it anymore
My suitcase is a wanderer
That takes me I believe
For a walk right across your heart
Theres so much love inside of you
That wants to be released
And all you gotta do is let it go
What you give you get back
So take my love just because its all I have
Take my heart take my soul
I just never want it back
Cause the love you give, is the love youll get
Theres so much love inside of me
That wants to be released
I cant help it so I gave it all away
What you give you get back
So take my love just because its all I have
What you give you get back
So take my love just because its all I have
Take my heart take my soul
I just never want it back
Cause your love, your love is all I have
All I have
Love is all we have
All I have

Gifts
Give a man a horse he can ride,
Give a man a boat he can sail;
And his rank and wealth, his strength and health,
On sea nor shore shall fail.
Give a man a pipe he can smoke,
Give a man a book he can read:
And his home is bright with a calm delight,
Though the room be poor indeed.
Give a man a girl he can love,
As I, O my love, love thee;
And his heart is great with the pulse of Fate,
At home, on land, on sea.

With your wonderful wedding day.
You’ll share everything together;
Through it all, your love will stay.
Congratulations to you,
As you begin your happy life.

But the greatest gift you'll ever get,
A gift from heaven above,

Everlasting love.
You'll share life's joy and pleasure;
You'll have plenty of that, it's true.
But love is the real treasure
For your new spouse and you.
And if life hands you challenges,
As it does to one and all,
Your love will hold you steady
And never let you fall.
Your wedding day is full of joy;
Tomorrow you cannot see.
But one thing's sure for the two of you:
The best is yet to be.
