Come Whatever May

As I travel down lifes winding roads
I wonder of what is yet to unfold
Is all I have done what is meant to be
Is this the life that is meant for me

I think of all the things I've not yet done
Things I should have done when I was young
Now I wonder if there still is time
To make this life one that I can call mine

I remember things that I used to dream
When I was young with some self esteem
But as years went by, I seemed to have lost my way
And have come to the place where I am today

All I seem to think about are the could have beens
The many who's, why's, where's and the when's
And I wonder if I could have changed
The way my life is now arranged

I think of those I've loved through the years
Remembering all the smiles, the laughs and tears
Taking in all of the many lessons learned
And knowing what my heart so deeply yearns

To feel the love from a heart so true
No longer feel that there is nothing I can do
To know there is someone out there waiting for me
Who also wants to feel how good love can be

I know that I have so much love to give
There is so much life that I have yet to live
I want to give someone all that I am
And to love someone the way that I know I can

To be happy with someone for the rest of my life
That is the goal for which I strive
Live happily together for the rest of our days
Always with our love so strong, come whatever may

You Are the One

You are the one
That I desire
You are the one
That sets my soul on fire

You are the one
I long to caress
You are the one
That fills me with happiness

You are the one
That gets my heart racing
You are the one
That makes me feel so amazing

You are the one
That I dream of at night
You are the one
That makes me feel so right

You are the one
Who has my heart
You are the one
I think of when we are apart

You are the one
That's always on my mind
You are the one
I want to be with for all time

You are the one
That I adore
You are the one
I've lived my life for

You are the one
I want us to be together
You are the one
Always and forever

You are the one

As the Sun Starts To Rise

As the sun starts to rise
On the dawn of our new life
We gaze into each other's eyes
Proud to be man and wife

A wondrous journey, a new blazed trail
Fueled by trust, tenderness and love
Belief in each other is the wind in our sail
Soaring high on the wings of a dove

The love we share is so real and true
One, which no other could ever compare
It's as pure as the kiss of the morning dew
As powerful as the moon's enchanting stare

Our devotion is deeper than any ocean
Broader than any horizon we could ever see
Stretching beyond the stars up in the heavens
More colorful than a rainbow could ever be

As we travel through our new life together
We know our love will grow stronger with time
Nothing in this world will be able to sever
The love shared between your heart and mine

A Life In the Fire

Rushing in with pipe in hand
Trying hard to make your stand
There's fire blazing all around
You don't know where you are bound

One moment you are knelt down low
Nozzle in hand at full flow
Next thing you know, everything is ablaze
You just can't help but be amazed

The way you feel when time is near
Makes you think of everything dear
You think of how you've lived your life
And wonder if you did it right

In the dark you feel alone
A bad feeling, down to the bone
You wonder if you'll make it through
To see another sky of blue

You think about the ones you love
And you hope that God above
Is with you in this time of need
To help you to perform this deed

You realize that the risk is great
But if your time has come, it's fate
I will give my life to save others
Especially for the lives of my brothers

Owner of My Heart

Just one touch of your hand
Has made me a brand new man
You've opened my eyes to a brand new light
Given this blind man back his sight

I've been granted the chance at a brand new life
A whole new goal for which to strive
To give you the love that you deserve
It is your heart that I faithfully serve

For so very long my heart's been a void
Any chance at love I'd try to avoid
I've never been good at matters of the heart
Always afraid of making a brand new start

I'm no longer aftaid of beginning again
I know in my heart you were heaven sent
A gift from above meant only for me
I believe that we were meant to be

Two lost souls trapped in our own lives
Both with our share of troublesome times
We were destined on that day to meet
Something our hearts could never see

The way that I feel when we're together
Is the way I want to feel forever
You've brought about a change in me
I'm no longer the man that I used to be

The way my heart feels for you is true
There is not a thing that I would not do
To keeep you right here by my side
Happy together for all of our lives

I've never felt this way about another
You are the one that makes my heart flutter
Always on my mind when we are apart
You will forever be the owner of my heart
