For Brooke

don't forget...

The Promise


If you wait for me then I'll come for you
Although I've traveled far
I always hold a place for you in my heart
If you think of me, If you miss me once in awhile
Then I'll return to you
I'll return and fill that space in your heart
Remembering
Your touch
Your kiss
Your warm embrace
I'll find my way back to you
If you'll be waiting
If you dream of me like I dream of you
In a place that's warm and dark
In a place where I can feel the beating of your heart

Remembering
Your touch
Your kiss
Your warm embrace
I'll find my way back to you
If you'll be waiting
I've longed for you and I have desired
To see your face your smile
To be with you wherever you are

Remembering
Your touch
Your kiss
Your warm embrace
I'll find my way back to you
If you'll be waiting
I've longed for you and I have desired
To see your face, your smile
To be with you wherever you are

Remembering
Your touch
Your kiss
Your warm embrace
I'll find my way back to you
Please say you'll be waiting

Together again
It would feel so good to be
In your arms
Where all my journeys end
If you can make a promise If it's one that you can keep, I vow to come for you
If you wait for me and say you'll hold
A place for me in your heart.
~Tracy Chapman

Why is this so hard?  I mean, you'd think that transition is hard as it is, but voila, after you think you've completed your journey, things happen and what you once thought you were going to have forever is lost in an instant.

Awwwwww...but, Tink...maybe things are lost or happen from time to time, but love lasts and finds its way back. *hugz* and ty...











Universe and U



A fire burns
Water comes
You cool me down
When I'm cold inside
You are warm and bright
You know you are so good for me
With your child's eyes
You are more than you seem
You see into space
I see in your face
The places you've been
The things you have learned
They sit with you so beautifully

You know there's no need to hide away
You know I tell the truth
We are just the same
I can feel everything you do
Hear everything you say
Even when you're miles away
Coz I am me, the universe and you

Just like stars burning night
Making holes in the night
We are building bridges

You know

When you're on your own
I'll send you a sign
Just so you know
I am me, the universe and you

Thank you.  I used to think that love was more than enough to maintain a relationship, but now I don't know anymore.  Apparently there are other factors in a relationship which a couple needs to take into consideration, and sometimes there are certain things which can't be changed even if we want them to.  Therefore, drastic, major decisions need to be taken.  *Sighs*

Ahhh not so true Tink. We cannot put *love* in a lil box and create a pert definition to suit us at any given time. Sometimes, it is what it is, and you roll with it...love is love which has no meaning yet means everything.
Don't give up on love. I didn't. 





Sweet Baby

many times I've been told
that I should go
but they don't know
what we got baby
they may not see the love in you
but love I do
and I'll stay right here
hmm, sweet sweet baby
life is crazy
but there's one thing
I am sure of I'm your lady
always baby
and I'll love you now and ever

sugar wishes don't change
what is real
or how it feels
in the bad times
for whatever she is
she is mine
all the time
and we're gettin' by
with our true love.
hmm, sweet sweet baby
life is crazy
but there's one thing
I am sure of
I'm your lady
always baby
and I´ll love you now and ever

baby
who'd have ever thought
just the two of us
that we'd come this far together
baby
so I'm here to stay
cause without you baby
I can't go any further
see

hmm,sweet baby
life is crazy
but there's one thing
I'm sure of
see I-I-I'm your lady
always baby
and I'll love you now and ever

now and ever
now and ever
my sweet sweet baby

i had to go out and buy that Tracy Chapman CD because I heard that song on here, thanks for spending my money. Loving it Lucy

[debbiej]

Debbie

[togetherwecan]

lol *I* don't even own the cd, but it is great nonetheless! Happy listening you two!







This song makes me cry...I really love it.

"Heal Over"



It isn't very difficult to see why
You are the way you are
Doesn't take a genius to realise
That sometimes life is hard
It's gonna take time
But you'll just have to wait
You're gonna be fine
But in the meantime

Come over here lady
Let me wipe your tears away
Come a little nearer baby
Coz you'll heal over
Heal over
Heal over someday

And I don't wanna hear you tell yourself
That these feelings are in the past
You know it doesn't mean they're off the shelf
Because pain's built to last
Everybody sails alone
But we can travel side by side
Even if you fail
You know that no one really minds
Come over here lady

Don't hold on but don't let go
I know it's so hard
You've got to try to trust yourself
I know it's so hard, so hard

Come over here lady
Let me wipe your tears away
Come a little nearer baby
Coz you'll heal over, heal over, heal over someday

Nothing Left To Lose


something's in the air tonight
the sky's alive with a burning light
you can mark my words something's about to break

and i found myself in a bitter fight
while i've held your hand through the darkest night
don't know where you're coming from but you're coming soon

(bridge)
to a kid from oregon by way of california
all of this is more than i've ever known or seen

(chorus)
come on and we'll sing, like we were free
push the pedal down watch the world around fly by us
come on and we'll try, one last time
i'm off the floor one more time to find you
and here we go there's nothing left to choose
and here we go there's nothing left to lose

so i packed my car and i headed east
where i felt your fire and a sweet release
there's a fire in these hills that's coming down
and i don't know much but i found you here
and i can not wait another year
don't know where you're coming from but you're coming soon

(bridge)

(chorus)

i can still hear the trains out my window
from hobart street to here in nashville
i can still smell the pomegranates grow
and i don't know how hard this wind will blow
or where we'll go
(chorus)
~Mat Kearney



(Cry) 1000 Oceans


1000 Oceans
   
 
These tears I've cried
I've cried 1000 oceans
And if it seems I'm floating
In the darkness
Well I can't believe that I would kep
Keep you from flying
And I would cry 1000 more if that's
What it takes to sail you home
Sail you home sail you home

I'm aware what the rules are
But you know that I will run
You know that I will follow you
Over silbury hill through the solar field
You know that I wil follow you

And if I find you will you still remember
Playing at trains
Or does this little blue ball
Just fade away
Over silbury hill through the solar field
You know that I will follow you
I'm aware what the rules are
But you know that I will run
You know that I will follow you

These tears I've cried
I've cried 1000 oceans
And if I'm floating
In the darkness
Well I can't believe that I would kep
Keep you from flying
And I will cry 1000 more if that's
What it takes to sail you home
Sail you home sail you home
~Tori Amos








Thanks for the times that you've given me,
The memories are all in my mind.
And now that we've come to the end of our rainbow
There's something I must say out loud.

You're once, twice, three times a lady, and I love you.
Yes, you're once, twice, three times a lady,
And I love you
I love you.

When we are together the moments I cherish,
with every beat of my heart.
To touch you, to hold you, to feel you, to need you.
There's nothing to keep us apart.

You're once, twice, three times a lady, and I love you.
I love you.
~Commodores (Lionel Richie)

I love this song. I like Howie Day a lot, met him in Portland when I was in radio. Here is a great vid for the song....I so wanna see this movie with you...







I can't fight this feeling any longer
And yet I'm still afraid to let it flow
What started out as friendship, has grown stronger
I only wish I had the strength to let it show

I tell myself that I can't hold out forever
I said there is no reason for my fear
Cause I feel so secure when we're together
You give my life direction
You make everything so clear


And even as I wander
I'm keeping you in sight
You're a candle in the window
On a cold, dark winter's night
And I'm getting closer than I ever thought I might

And I can't fight this feeling anymore
I've forgotten what I started fighting for
It's time to bring this ship into the shore
And throw away the oars, forever

Cause I can't fight this feeling anymore
I've forgotten what I started fighting for
And if I have to crawl upon the floor
Come crashing through your door
Baby, I can't fight this feeling anymore

My life has been such a whirlwind since I saw you
I've been running round in circles in my mind
And it always seems that I'm following you, girl
Cause you take me to the places that alone I'd never find

And even as I wander I'm keeping you in sight
You're a candle in the window on a cold, dark winter's night
And I'm getting closer than I ever thought I might

And I can't fight this feeling anymore
I've forgotten what I started fighting for
It's time to bring this ship into the shore
And throw away the oars, forever


Cause I can't fight this feeling anymore
I've forgotten what I started fighting for
And if I have to crawl upon the floor
Come crushing through your door
Baby, I can't fight this feeling anymore.
~REO Speedwagon




I miss you Brooke....



I Surrender

There's so much life I've left to live
And this fire is burning still
When I watch you look at me
I think I could find the will
To stand for every dream
And forsake this solid ground
And give up this fear within
Of what would happen if they ever knew
I'm in love with you
'Cause I'd surrender everything
To feel the chance to live again
I reach to you
I know you can feel it too
We'd make it through
A thousand dreams I still believe
I'd make you give them all to me
I'd hold you in my arms and never let go
I surrender
I know I can't survive
Another night away from you
You're the reason I go on
And now I need to live the truth
Right now, there's no better time
From this fear I will break free
And I'll live again with love
And no they can't take that away from me
And they will see...
'Cause I'd surrender everything
To feel the chance to live again
I reach to you
I know you can feel it too
We'd make it through
A thousand dreams I still believe
I'd make you give them all to me
I'd hold you in my arms and never let go
I surrender
Every night's getting longer
And this fire is getting stronger, babe
I'll swallow my pride and I'll be alive
Can't you hear my call
I surrender all
'Cause I'd surrender everything
To feel the chance to live again
I reach to you
I know you can feel it too
We'd make it through
A thousand dreams I still believe
I'd make you give them all to me
I'd hold you in my arms and never let go
I surrender
Right here, right now
O give my life to live again
I'll break free, take me
My everything, I surrender all to you
Right here, right now
O give my life to live again
I'll break free, take me
My everything, I surrender all to you
~Celine




Hey Brooke? Keep the pen outta your hand 
"I can't let you go"


i've been to many places
i've met different races
i've seen so many faces
but it's you i cant forget

i've been through high and low
til i got no where to go
i got this funny feeling
that it's you who i'm still missing

so baby common
don't let this go
you know i love you so!
don't throw away
let our love grow
i can't let you go!

we've always been so strong
we almost had it all
don't give up now on me
cause, we will always be

let's come to think of this
look at all we could miss
i can't let this happen
cause it's you
that i'll always be loving
~cueshe
