Close your eyes
Imagine me by your side
No matter how far apart
I'll be with you through the night
Make a wish
And let it be that I'm with you
No matter how impossible
I'll make sure it comes true
'Cause my yearning for you is so strong
I need to have your love, baby
Whether it's right or wrong
When I gave my heart to you
It was for keeps
Now I need to trust
You will keep it from harm
When I gave my heart to you
It was for keeps
I want to know if I can keep your heart, too
I need to have you in my arms
Kiss the dark
And know I am there
No matter how long ago
Just remember I'll always care
Oh, my yearning for you is so strong
I need to feel your love, my Angel
Whether it's right,
Or if it's wrong
When I gave my heart to you
It was for keeps
Now I need to trust
You will keep it from harm
When I gave my heart to you
It was for keeps
Now I want to know if I can keep your heart, too
Just need to hold you in my arms

The quiet waves beat on the shore,
as only they can do.
The sun sets, but still
isn't quite as beautiful as you.
Birds are flying overhead,
as graceful as can be.
My feet are flowing through the sand,
as if they were a key.
The subtle breeze is not the same,
because you are not here.
The shimmering across the blue
makes everything so clear.
The tips of trees in forests green
are reaching up so high.
Because you are not here with me,
I wish that I could cry.

i lie here in bed, hazy with sleep,
and to the open window my eyes turn...
night sublime, a perfect white moon
bathes the sky in silver light...
i gaze for an instant up past the stars,
and whisper soundlessly a prayer for you...
i wonder if where you right now are,
you can see these same stars, too...
i hold a pillow close against me,
and try picturing your sleeping face...
so comforting, to imagine you sound asleep,
safe and warm, lost in your sweet dreams...
i let my eyes close down for a while,
and i miss you once more as i reflect...
so much i wish i could be with you there,
to whisper you a soft lullaby, as to a child...
i glance once more to the moon-washed sky,
and wish i could meet you in my dreams...
i drift off... your voice echoing faint in my ears...
with my last thought, i kiss you goodnight...

Pray shall I know you better;
Let this feeling flourish
Into the darkness of a dear sleep.
When can my words mean
What they are ever so filled with?
How must my mind know
Whether or not you are wanting,
And breathless when these two souls
Connect? My precious bleeding, which
Pours like no other means before...
Is it considered wrong, yes, but why
Does it feel right, and so natural
To be able to think that one fraction
Of this unending, worldly time could be
The moment where my body goes weak,
My mind leaves, and heart takes its toll
On your precious soul and never leaving?
What if my cries had voice, and my songs
Had a tune? Would he offer his love
Or push away my blue-eyed stare and the union,
Which is the only true binding
That these two spirits hold within our own?
5
A single dim light
to guide me through,
at the end of this cruel stage
I will find you.
Closer and closer I come
until finally I'm in your arms,
I will encounter no more fears
and I will face no more harms.
The cuts from others' hate are deep
but you will kiss them away,
you will mend what is broken
and forever you will stay.
You will help me to go on
and break through each tear,
and even when I can't quite see you
I'll always know you're near.

Stars have a magic glow.
They sing their own silent song.
They have been wished on, named on, and looked upon.
Imagine- if you were a tiny bright star shining above.
Would you feel loved?
Would you feel lonely?
Or would you feel happiness
... knowing you are the one people dream on?
7
My soul was complete
Soaring through a sky of dreams and happiness like a cloud
Now my soul is in turmoil
My soul has turned dark like a storm
The raindrops are my tears of pain
...Today my world turned upside-down
My life was a rose
It grew proudly from a hope-filled ground
But my beautiful sun has now left
Without its light and love- my rose has died
...The day my world turned upside-down
My love was everlasting
You meant and said so much to me without making a sound
Now you're gone and my heart is crying
I loved you more than anything- but it wasn't enough
...Today my world turned upside-down

I see you standing there
across a sea of brass.
Your beauty beckons to me
like a lighthouse in the distance.
It saves me from crashing
against the rocks of dispair;
It breaks the darkness
and gives me hope.
How I wish I could be
the music on that stand,
Staring back at you as you
stare at me with a passion,
A passion for the best,
a passion for no mistakes.
How I wish you knew
how I feel;
How I wish you felt
the same for me.
If only you felt my love
across this sea of brass.

This deep blue sea is a window to my heart.
I feel it beating for its last time.
The window- fading, the heart- turning to stone.
The sea will dry up...
And a desert shall take over
A window lost forever...
Shall I never be found?
Maybe a lost stranger will dig me up
And my heart, once again beating
and full of life t
Till that day comes...
Life is not life.
10
I once had a strong heart,
until it was broken
and everything was lost,
my soul taken away with it.
I could no longer cry,
my tears were dry like the desert,
my dignity stolen,
and I have forgotten
the true meaning of pride.
No one knows the pain
I hide behind my smile.
I must be strong and be a man,
so my feelings I kept inside.
But now I?m tired,
tired of being lonely,
tired of hiding.
Now I search for what was lost;
I search for that special someone,
that someone who can bring me
the feeling of being loved
once more.
11
"You're great, you're great."
That's what they say,
But when it comes down to it,
I'm not given the light of day.
"You're so kind and caring.
You are so very sweet."
Then why must I watch
While they walk away from me?
"You're every girl's dream.
You're such a great guy."
Yet they walk away
Without even saying why.
Every time I care,
My heart gets torn in two,
Yet I still care again,
Even with the pain I've gone through.
12
there is something in the air
the sky,
the day,
the night.
something different high above
the stars,
the clouds,
the moon,
the sun.
it's all happening again
it's all happening to me
it starts a year after the end
stonger... stronger.
there is something in my chest
the pain,
the anger,
the love.
something trapped in my head
the songs,
the words,
the melody,
the picture of you.
it's all coming back again
it's all coming back to me
it disappeared but it never died
my love... my immortal love.
