Love Song

This is not part of 'Conversations with you' - just a duet... with a sort of story to it.

-------------

Girl:
I'm sad
I've lost the love of my life
A frown has replaced my smile
My surroundings seems duller now

Girl:
And i'm lying there on the floor
Thinking of the good ol' days of before
Crying cos i've got nothing else to do
Can't seem to go past this point of view

Boy:
I'm here,
And i'll hold you close
Until your tears stop to pour
I can lend you my shoulders again

Boy:
I'm lying there on the floor beside you
Wondering how life can be so cruel
Here i am, happy cos you're with me
But your pains making me feel guilty

Both:
And together we're good
Together we're strong
It's just so sad

Girl:
Cos i don't think we belong

Boy:
Well, i think you're wrong

Girl:
I'm much too young

Boy:
But I won't wait that long

Girl:
Oh you will, when i sing you this love song

Girl:
I'm glad
Its raining opportunities
Seems like my life's loving me
Yeah, I'm finally taking control

Girl:
And i'm lying there on the floor
dreaming about open doors
Waiting for you to stop on by
To give you the news that i'm ready to fly

Boy:
I'm back,
I'll be there for you
As long as you need me too
I'll be the only one you can trust

Boy:
And i'm lying there on the floor beside you
Wondering how life can still be so cruel
There you are, happy you're going away
Goodbye seems all that's left to say

Both:
And together we're good
Together we're strong
It's just so sad

Girl:
Cos i don't think we belong

Boy:
Well, i think you're wrong

Girl:
I'm much too young

Boy:
But I won't wait that long

Girl:
Oh you will, when i sing you this love song

Both:
And as... life, passes by
Only time will tell
What's left to decide

Girl:
Do i love you too?

Boy:
Not as much as i love you

Girl (talking):
Ok, but do i want to go through?

Boy:
Darling, its up to you

Both:
And together we're good
Together we're strong
It's just so sad

Girl:
I have to admit i was wrong

Boy:
You think we belong?

Girl (talking):
Yes, That's why i'm singing you this love song

Boy (Talking):
Err, wait, i thought i was singing this song?

Both:
That's why we're singing this love song

In Love With You

Here's a nice, peppy love song! :)

--------------------

No one see’s you the way I do
No one really cares
All they know is what you want them to
Not what’s inside those layers

Oh babe, I’m the only one
Who can set you free
We were meant to be

You and I, we are so alike
We won’t have to try
Our love will survive

I need you. I want you. I miss you. I think of you.
No, I’m not confused
All I know is how it feels… to be in with love you
(To be in love with you)

I know you’re every thought
And the things your eyes never seem to say
They’ve read every book you’ve bought
But don’t get past what’s written there

Oh love, I promise you
I’ll let you be
Believe me

You and I, we are so alike
We won’t have to try
Our love will fly

I need you. I want you. I miss you. I think of you.
No, I’m not confused
All I know is how it feels… to be in with love you
(To be in love with you)

I love this feeling that you make me feel
It’s so unreal
I wish that you could feel the same way too
But who will give you love the way I do?

I need you. I want you. I miss you. I think of you.
No, I’m not confused
All I know is how it feels… to be in with love you
(To be in love with you)

Oh babe, I’m the only one
Who can set you free
We were meant to be

You and I, we are so alike
We won’t have to try
Our love will survive

I need you. I want you. I miss you. I think of you.
No, I’m not confused
All I know is how it feels… to be in with love you
(To be in love with you)

I need you. I want you. I miss you. I think of you.
No, I’m not confused
All I know is how it feels… to be in with love you
(To be in love with you)

We Are Living Beings

I know... the title sounds funny :P Couldn't think of anything better.

This is a song/poem that's half said. I think the 'real' things that wanted to come out, never eventually found its way out. Maybe i'll re-visit this again later and change things. But then again, maybe not.

But u get the picture right? I mean, all problems in this world - is because of us - human beings. Which is really stupid, cos we're definitely the most intelligent species on earth... and we've got the super-power to understand and communicate effectively. And yet...

----------------

There are some things I could talk about for hours
Like love and life and the truth ‘bout who we are
But some might say, they don’t really care
About the reason for this existence of ours

But help me spread the word around today
For there’s nothing better than to learn the right way
We were born to make, and not to break
So don’t take this lightly what I say

We are living beings, with special powers
We can walk and talk and understand each other
So why do we, turn to one another?
When we’re supposed to be living in this world together

Sometimes we do crazy things for fun
It’s alright if we understand it in the long run
Teach right from wrong, weak and strong
And the value of things that can’t be undone

We are living beings, with special powers
We can walk and talk and understand each other
So why do we, turn to one another?
When we’re supposed to be living in this world together

We are living beings, with special powers
We can walk and talk and understand each other
So why do we, turn to one another?
When we’re supposed to be living in this world together

Don't Leave Me All Alone

Oh I’ve been hearing talks of you
Bragging, stabbing, sneaking around… yeah
I’m still confused, baby what did I do?
That you’re axing me to the ground, yeah

I’ve been good to you oh honey
And we’ve been good together, oh yeah
Don’t take me for a fool, to let go of you
When we’ve been honored even by strangers

And Hey
Don’t turn your back on me
Hey
Don’t leave me here to bleed
Hey
Don’t you use that tone on me
Baby Baby Baby
Don’t leave me all alone

Don’t you leave me all alone
Don’t you dare leave me on my own
Don’t you leave me all alone

Baby I can hear you now
Telling, yelling, screaming & fighting
But we’ll get through this somehow
Go back to all the love and romancing

I’ve been good to you oh honey
And we’ve been good together, oh yeah
Don’t take me for a fool, to let go of you
When we’ve been honored even by strangers

And Hey
Don’t turn your back on me
Hey
Don’t leave me here to bleed
Hey
Don’t you use that tone on me
Baby Baby Baby
Don’t leave me all alone

Don’t you leave me all alone
Don’t you dare leave me on my own
Don’t you leave me all alone

Baby Baby Baby
Don’t leave me all alone…all alone

You know I’ve been good to you
And now I’m hearing all these talks of you
Darling tell me, what did I do?

Baby Baby Baby
Just don’t leave me all alone.

The World And Me

Sometimes I think it’s a win-win situation
Sometimes, it’s no good at all
But whatever the outcome shall be
I’ll have to start with a fall

Don’t think there’s anything out there
Better suited for me
Than the dream I’m living for
Than the journey to be

And I know
I’ll have to go all alone
Down a long and winding road
With nobody to hold

But if this how life has set it for me
Than this is how it shall be
I’ll do anything to get me there
And to set me free

I wonder when my time will come
To cross the 7 sea's
This is a life full of struggles
But I won't give up easily

And I know
I’ll have to go all alone
Down a long and winding road
With nobody to hold

Oh when will I win this fight?
Between the World and Me

Rely On My Angels

I don’t think I can still believe
All this that’s been happening
Ok, so I guess I’m in love
But with who? I’m still wondering…

The similarities are uncanny
Is it a supposed to be a sign?
Or am I still in love with the one
Who taught me to walk the line?

Life’s complicated
I realise that now
I’m loving a man
Who’s like him, somehow

And I’m back to where I started
Seems like I’ve been running around in circles
I just hope this doesn’t end the way it did before
I hope this time around I can rely on my angels

Oh, strange things are bound to happen
Its love that we’re talking about here
What goes around, comes around
And I’m experiencing it too closely, I fear

Life’s an adventure
I can see that now
Never thought I’d love a man
Who’s like him, somehow

And I’m back to where I started
Seems like I’ve been running around in circles
I just hope this doesn’t end the way it did before
I hope this time around I can rely on my angels

I’m already in too deep
So no one can save me
Just help me get on my feet
And make him see... me

Oh, I hope I can rely on my angels...

And I’m back to where I started
Seems like I’ve been running around in circles
I just hope this doesn’t end the way it did before
I hope this time around I can rely on my angels

This time around... yeah
I hope this time around I can rely on my... angels

A Second Chance

For those of you who know what i'm talking about in this poem - please don't judge me! No - i'm not being over confident... and i'm not putting all my hopes on this. But yes, there is a part of me that's wishful - and I do really feel as though my life has rewound.

So please don't judge. I assure you, i'm not a cocky, self-absorbed, bitch as I appear to be. :)

-------------------------

I think my life just rewound
And I’ve been given an opportunity
To live the last few years of my life
The way it’s meant to be

Could it be the hand of god?
Or a twist of fate?
Since I don’t believe in either
I won’t contemplate

But I will make the right choices
And I will be strong
I won’t let go of my dreams
This time around

I’ll take my opportunity
Oh yes, I will
Make the most of it
For sure, I will

For how many people get this?
A second chance at life
And even if some people do
How many make it a better life?

I am most thankful to my stars
For what I have just been given
Look out world, here I come!
My new life is about to begin

I'll Hold On

I'm not fully satisfied with the third verse. I'll add it later on when I'm through with it.

--------------------

Please believe me darling when I say
My nights are getting shorter every day
Thoughts of you always fill my head
Even though I know what you said

Why won't you give me just one chance
I'll do anything to make you mine
Baby your wish is my command
Hear me now, come take my hand

And I'll hold on
while you say no
And I don't know
If I'll let go (2x)

Wanna know what this sounds like? Check out the video on you tube.
The first song is 'I'll Hold On' and the second is 'Don't Be Sad'.

Awesome August

So... every year I have this thing for 'August'. It started years ago... when I looked forward to celebrating my birthday each August. Then it progressed to noticing other special things that happened to me every August. And now, i just look forward to August each year... knowing something fabulous is going to happen! It doesn't necessarily mean something 'will' happen - but i guess its how i perceive things that happen... :)

So anyway, I've always wanted to write something about 'Awesome August' - and here's something presentable.

--------------------------

I’m waiting for the days
When the world will be a happy place
And my luck will have its say
In ways more than one

It isn’t too far away
The shiny days that I’m looking forward to
When the clouds will still be grey-blue
But now with magic in its downpour

Oh, it’s a time
When the world is mine
And I’ll make all my dreams come true

And it’s that time
When I feel divine
And it might even get me closer to you

And I’m jumpin’
Jumpin’ July
Wish I could fly
Into a new day
Into a new month
Into a new rush
Awesome August

Its getting closer
The days when I get to break free again
With a lot more joy and lesser pain
And cherish those special moments

Oh, it’s a time
When the world is mine
And I’ll make all my dreams come true

And it’s that time
When I feel divine
And it might even get me closer to you

And I’m jumpin’
Jumpin’ July
Wish I could fly
Into a new day
Into a new month
Into a new rush
Awesome August

What have you in store for me?
I hope it’s the dream, fairy tale story
I can feel it, this time around, it’s my glory
And a happily ever after, waiting for me

And I’m jumpin’
Jumpin’ July
Wish I could fly
Into a new day
Into a new month
Into a new rush
Awesome August

Oh, come fast
Awesome August
