He's My Hero- Song 3

He might be just a photograph,
but I know he's more than that despite
what people say.
His love and words are stronger than steel,
the distance won't make me stop loving him.

He's strong, always pushing on, 
Never looking back.
He left the things and ones he 
loves behind knowing
this might be the last time
and he's mine
HE'S MY HERO

To feel his embrace, to listen to his voice, 
to hear his breath.
I don't care about the consequences
I just want to be with what's
Mine
'till he can't stay anymore.

When he has to be strong, and push on
trying his hardest not to look
back.
He left his life and the one he
loved behind knowing
that this could be the last time
but he's mine
HE'S MY HERO

I can't sleep at night, knowing he's
out there, somewhere. 
Is he safe?
How can I pray?
Oh, GOD, please bring him home!
I can't live without him.
Just bring him home 'cause

I don't know how I can stay strong
and push on
as he's watching his and his brothers' backs.
He left the one he loves at home
knowing there's that
chance. 
But he's mine.
And I don't care about anyone else
'cause
HE'S MY HERO

Hear my prayer...
          Bring him home...
Distance won't stop my love...
I just want to be with him...

He's strong, still pushing on
No longer looking back.
He's back to the things and ones he
left behind knowing
he's back to stay.
And he's mine.
HE'S MY HERO

He's Mine...

         HE'S MY HERO...

One Last Glance--- Song 1

Don’t let yourself be scared,
	be confident.
Don’t hold your soul back,
	just let it take flight.
Standing alone in an empty room
	admiring art from pictures of me and you.

One glance back at the life you knew before,
One last tear that wasn’t meant to fall,
One last embrace to know you were real,
One last breath to make sure you were okay;
One glance back.

Sheltered in your arms,
	a curtain of love binds me.
Hunger in your kiss,
	to know that you need me.
But I’m standing alone in a crowded
room filled with people admiring pictures
	of me and you.

One glance back at the life you knew before,
One last tear that wasn’t meant to fall,
One last embrace to know you were safe,
One last breath to make sure you 
were awake;
One glance back.

You left me on my own
worried sick about you, holding onto all
that was left of you. The
memory of you walking away,
with my silent prayer
hoping you would be okay. . .

One glance back. . .

		One last tear. . .

	One last embrace. . .

			One last breath. . .

One glance back at the life you had before,
One last tear that was meant to fall,
One last embrace to hold me through the 
night,
One last breath just to see the
mornin’ light.
One last glance.

One last glance. . .
		One last tear. . .

			One last embrace that I hold dear. . .

	One last breath that saves a life. . .



One last glance good-bye. . .

				Good-bye. . . 


								good-bye.

Young In Love Again--- Song 2

Every time I breath,
	I feel your arms around me;
     Holdin’ on so tight, that it makes it almost impossible to see.
The stars are dancing their own little dance, as we hear the drums
		Pounding in our ears.


I remember we were running through the trees,
Trying to reach the top,
Giggling and screaming at the top of our little lungs,
I wish we could go back and be
Young in Love Again.


I flash back to us growing up,
Catching each other in long silent glances,
With the same little question bugging me and you.
But then there was your girl; 
And she adored you, then I was always blue.


I remember sitting alone writing in my book,
Watching you stand there cuddling her,
With me longingly looking, dreaming I could be her and 
I kept wishing that we could go back to being
Young in Love Again.


Then there was the day,
	That long awaited day.
You had left her for me,
   And in sweet ecstasy, you kissed me.


I remember everything falling into place,
Walking down the aisle to you,
Standing there in black and blue;
Our dreams were finally coming true 
And we were no longer wishing to go back ‘cause
We were Young in Love.

But then things changed. . .
	One little change, we didn’t expect it to come.
        It was the letter sent for you to go.
		And in my head,
	Was all the bad, wondering if our precious little one would survive,
			From all my pain
				From this one good-bye. . .

And I remember going back to all the good,
Breathing out the bad,
Trying to forget the truth, that you had to go;
And we were praying together, 
That we could go back to being
Young in Love Again.


And I remember. . .
	And you remember. . .
        So we remember. . .
		And we pray. . .
				That if we meet again in another place. . .
		
We will be
	Young in Love Again.

The Battlefront Soldier

Tall and strong;
Always pushing on.
Never once looking back,
Straight up and stiff back.
My heart was and is yours,
But you turned me down and sent me away.
You might be military, baby,
But I don’t care.
Hold me and love me, but leave my heart there.
I want you to be mine, but distance is your barricade with which you hide.
I fear you’ll hide behind it forever,
With or without my dreams.
I see you walking away or standing on enemy lines,
Looking back onto my side of the fence and wondering to cross it or not.
You have your gun, you have your uniform, and you have your armor. 
You doubt me because of what happens with others, and you ignore the others who have succeeded.
Why not give me a chance?
Let me show you I can be who you want.
Ignore just letting me be a distance away. 
Please; please I beg you; don’t walk away and leave me as I am.

I'M Walking Alone

I’m walkin’ alone.
Singin’ the same old song; our song.
No it don’t hurt anymore. 
I don’t care if you’re keepin’ score.
Listen: I’m no longer your problem;
Don’t care if you want me to be that anymore.
I just want to walk alone.
Don’t follow me home; don’t run into me by “accident”.
*****like that just ain’t cool. 
You think you’re a rogue; but your pumpin’ up your low, low ego.
Don’t toy with my heart;
Don’t mess with my mind;
Don’t handle my soul with your vice griped mind.
Just let me walk alone.
Stay away from me;
I’m just an emotional bomb ready to blow right up.
One touch would do it.
Don’t show me affection; It’ll just hurt me more; Maybe even break me. 
Just leave me alone; 
So I can walk alone.

Takin' Your Love Away

What do you mean you’re leaving?
	What aren’t you telling me?
		You had said that we could run away and make it out on our own; out in the wild.
			But now you’re packin’ up your things and givin’ me one last kiss good-bye.
				And I say that U can’t leave me.
					How am I supposed to live without you?
				He said I really don’t give a damn what you do.
			Keep the faith and never be afraid to follow your heart.
		I’ve told you time and time again that this love thing is too big for little girls.

										So I say. . .

I’m sorry I fell asleep in your arms and cried right in them,
You cared enough to dry them away,
But now,
That you turned away,
I still don’t know how you did it and 
You’re Takin’ Your Love Away

I picked him up at a bar.
	I didn’t have a care.									
    
  No.
		I was too drunk, so he took me home, in his truck.
	He stayed with me all night long,
Never once questioning. . .
					Never once leavin’ my side.
As I rolled over the next morning
		A note was in his place:
	Call me if you need me, I’ll be back tonight, baby.

										So I said. . .

I’m sorry I fell asleep in your arms and cried right in them,
You cared enough to dry them away,
But now,
You turned to me,
I still don’t know why you did and
I hope that
You’re not Takin’ Your Love Away


          So. . .
		Please don’t leave. . .




So he said. . .


I’m sorry I fell asleep in your arms and cried right in them,
I hope you care enough to accept this ring,
That’s all my heart.
I still know why I do this to you and
I don’t want you ever
Takin’ Your Love Away


I’m sorry I fell asleep in your arms and cried right in them,
You cared enough to dry them away,
But now,
That you turned away,
I still don’t know how you did it and 
You’re Takin’ Your Love Away



I’m sorry I fell asleep in your arms and cried right in them,
You cared enough to dry them away,	
But now,	
You turned to me,	
I still don’t know why you did and	
I hope that		
You’re not Takin’ Your Love Away	

I’m sorry I fell asleep in your arms and cried right in them,
I hope you care enough to accept this ring,
That’s all my heart.
I still know why I do this to you and
I don’t want you ever
Takin’ Your Love Away


If you love me enough. . .
			Then don’t
				Take Your Love Away

1-800-Giv-Me-Hope

I’ve put up all my defenses.
I don’t know if this time you’ll break through.
I’m hurting so bad we’re not like we used to be. 
I now take love as an enemy invasion. 
My heart is all barred up in a safe place where you can’t get to me.
I’m so alone and afraid. 
You never turn back, you just keep pushing through; like a soldier.
I wish I could be like you;
So strong, so brave, so carefree.
You just lock your feelings away and never let anyone in on your secrets.
I’m so afraid to let myself show,
No one knows me better.
You know my every move, my every thought;
You know me better than my own self.
I stumble down a road, blindly as a beggar.
I’d take hold of your hand if I knew where you were every time I stumble. 
But you left me there on that road, 
So dusty, so unclean as a demon.
The thought of never finding “home”;
Have crossed my mind too many.
Can’t you help me along my way;
Like the times you used to.
I see you hurt and now’s my chance to prove to you I can aide you.
But you just push me aside; 
Leaving me to fall into a depression.
My thoughts are scattered and unknown. 
Who knows what I might do next.
So in this troubled time,
Let me help you as you’ve done.
Consider it repayment for your love and caring acts of kindness.
 Let me have this one wish,
That I may be able to help you through this.
Can you just accept this from me?
And then you can go back to how you used to.
Just use me and I don’t care what you do then.
But I wish I could make our friendship stronger. 
I know I’m not her and I’m not asking to be
Just give me a chance at who I am.
Let me try to be a soul 
Who’s just aiding a friend in need.
I hope GOD answers my prayer, 
Leaving me some sort of answer.
Let it be something I can understand, 
So I know when to press on or when to stay.
And maybe then my heart will mend, leaving me without a doubt.
Knowing that HIS decisions right. 
I hope, however, you don’t just toy with my heart and then 
Leave one last time.

The Only Thing That Matters

Remember when we were
young at heart?
We made good decisions
and bad.
But that never stopped
us from coming
together.
I wasted my
life 
trying to find the 
one 
person that mattered; 
YOU.
I don’t know
how to tell 
you that I can’t live
without you.
You’ve told me your
dreams,
I’ve thought about you often.
The only thing that matters is
if I will ever tell you that 
I LOVE YOU

Missin' You

I miss you, miss you
your spirit comes over by text and it 
brightens my day
I miss you, miss you
and I pretend you’re on a trip far
far away and you long to come 
home to
me
I miss you, miss you
and can’t stop thinkin’ ‘bout you
‘cause you’re the one who I love and 
I can’t help but hope/know that 
deep down inside that you
love me too
I miss you, miss you
so much that I think your with 
me every step of the way and we end up
together in our own little world just gf and bf
forever
But that won’t happen I know ‘cause
you are torn from me by another and 
you say you want me but it’s hard to tell
if you mean it so I’ll only say that I’m 
Missin’ You

Get the Hell Away

Slam the door,
Leave your keys,
You’re a fool
That I love to 
Watch leave;
Ya hurt me once,
Ya hurt me twice,
Will ya turn and make it thrice?;
To leave me lyin’,
To leave me achin’,
To leave my heart that you know is breakin’;
Ima fool for lettin’ you in 
‘cause next thing I knew 
You were shootin’ ina
Hole that just won’t stop bleedin’;
This is pointless I know,
‘cause I always show, 
So I always put a dam in your flow;
Get outta here,
Get outta my life,
Just leave right now in your spite;
Your done you fool 
You’ve done it now,
You hung my heart from a Christmas bow; 
I hate you, really,
Yes I do,
This is a promise from me to you;
Next time around do your best,
To get back in,
You’ll have to impress;
So get lost now before I become an even worse mess.
