Garden of Love

this is the day the buds were in my heart to keep
 as i watched in sombre mood there pearly petals begin to peep
 and as i gazed upon this beauty, my mood became a glow
 as i seen in my heart a beautiful garden that did grow

 this is the day, the month before spring had begun
 yet in my heart I bathed in the beauty of the sun
 i wished that time would no longer pass me by
 for i knew that for your love again that i would cry

 this is the day my heart believed in you 
 that time it had no meaning and in my heart was true
 a garden of love i sent through time
 to touch your heart was so divine
 this is the day i remember with love 
 where a butterfly landed from above 
 on a beautiful rose, in a garden so sweet
 where our love will always meet

 this is the day that youth was still mine
 and the flowers danced in a beautiful line
 to the song that my heart longed to sing 
 but gently fell as gold dust from a wing

 this is the day my garden was light 
 and i will always return when times are as night
 to the garden of love where my soul is a part
 a beautiful treasure to rest in my heart..

Close To You

why do i feel you so close
 yet you are not there 
 why do you not answer
 as if you didnt care
 yet my heart tells me you do 
 you took away the pain they planted there 
 it lifted, for one moment i was free 
 flying free, i was floating, didnt care 
 I was me, our souls were so entwined
 the me that was born, before i was burdened with so much pain
 cant i feel forever this way 
 why do you have to go away
 you linger in my thoughts, but in the cold light of day you are not there
 there is only the reality that really you do not care
 the less i think the more you are there
 but really you are far far away
 my soul despairs
 i cant understand how you cannot love me 
 when my soul tells me that you do 
 when i am always and forever so close to you

A Beautiful Mind

You left me a beautiful mind
Because you were so kind
Now I love to see a flower
To sit and dream for an hour

You left me with a beautiful dream
Bursting at each and every seam
With beauty I never ever knew
Not until the day I met you

You left me with a beautiful heart
That always flutters with a start
Everytime i see your face
And my love just fits into place

You left me with a beautiful soul
Because to love you is my only goal
You left me with nothing but love
That was sent from an angel above

You left me with beautiful sight
Because all that I see is so bright
I only wish you could see
What you left because you loved me

I Am Not Afraid of the Dark

I am not afraid of the dark
inside my realm
no anger will beat me
no bitterness to greet me
The ghosts of voices will turn to dust
curl up, burn to ash, and rust
At the end of my thoughts I know your light is there
to show me the way
your light fills my soul
and keeps my demons at bay
I am not afraid of the dark
down beautiful corridors of light I follow
I feel there fears, I sense there sorrow
They surround me with there calls 
as I walk in beautiful halls
Im no longer afraid of the dark 
cause the light will always shine 
and all good hearts will so entwine 
your love is closer every day
I follow your love that lights the way
I am less afraid as time goes by 
I know you will be there the day that I die
When Im afraid of the dark 
please remind me that you care
and then I will fear no fear
as I know your love is always there

Bird In a Cage

its cruel to keep a bird in a cage
I cant tell you how this fills with me with rage
I watch you poor thing sit with your head down
feeling unhappy, your face with a frown
I know how you long to flap your wings and fly
but all you can do is watch the traffic go by
when I watch you, it makes me want to cry
oh beautiful bird, all I can do is ask myself why
I wish that I could take you back to where you belong
where you could sit in a tree and hear the bird song
where you could fly forever more and feel the wind in your feather
instead my heart breaks, for this cage you can leave, never
oh poor little sad bird, I so long to set you free
all the beauty in the world I want you to see
poor little bird please dont cry, I will sing you a song
about the beautiful place, you really belong

Crying In My Sleep

was dreaming a dream
about times of past
but a dream is a dream
and no dream does last
we were laughing in a park
and the night it was dark
we were laughing by the sea
but something was bothering me
and then in my dream I wept
and it made me wake in the dark
the truth it did so hurt
that on my dream I did not embark
a dream doesn't stay a dream
its not something to hold
its something to realise
to take and use it bold
but I knew that I would do this
if you would only let me go
but I sat there helpless , unable to understand
why your heart was all of woe
I cried for you, in that dream
not for myself atall
not for my lost dreams, 
because a dream I can always recall
and start again, 
even though I said to myself
I didn't know when
but I saw that your dreams had slipped away 
you had really stopped dreaming atall
and your laughter was cold
and the sea air made my skin crawl
I cried in my sleep for you

The Bridge Between Us

I am nearer to you than I was this time last year, 
you do not become more distant
time I will never fear
the bridge between us is getting smaller all the time x
wont be long, wont be long now
time ticks slowly by, I listen to its earthly chime
and while i know that time is precious and life its only treasure
it brings me comfort to know 
that time is merely a measure
many more years may tick slowly by
more happy memories 
more reasons to try 
I will watch the beauty of every season
you are forever my hope
you are my reason
as I know that one day we will meet once more
the bridge between us gone
we meet at heavens door 
for now my angel I watch you fly
I know your looking over me
it will never be goodbye
I am nearer to you than I was this time last year
you do not become more distant
time only brings you near

Two More Days of May

Two more days of May
A lot that one can say
A heart can feel
A love can cure
a song be sang
along the shore
Two more days of May
a lot can go your way
A dream be followed
a garden grown
a voice be heard
a plan be known
Two more days of May
no rain,
no clouds of grey
a song be written 
a letter sent
a hand be held
a shoulder lent
two more days of May 
so much time to pray
I pray to god
that every day
will always stay 
like two more days of may ...

Just Me

I would rather be me
theres nobody else in this world that I wanna be
just me, just me,
the world is a selfish place, with many a selfish fool
there rushing round in circles
all thinking that they want to rule
the world .... is a wonderful place
a beautiful human race
if only they could realise 
you gotta give and take a few
you got to think of others too
theres nobody else is this world that i wanna be
just me, just me
because I always think of you 
in every single thing I do
but at the end of the day
why is there always someone in my way
when i want to think of me
then they always turn away so ignorently
tell me that i have to rush
take it all and shove and push
that's why id rather be me
because I'm patient, happy and free
they keep on trying have a go
tell me I'm wrong and put on a show
well i think iv had enough
tell me to go, tell me to stay
i will never be in your way
but at the very end of the day
i have said all iv got to say
because
theres nobody else in the world that i wanna be
just me,

One Resounding Note

one resounding note can last a long long time
with a beauty of such , that is just pure divine
its pretty to write a song and could take you very far
but one resounding note doesn't even need a bar lol oh
a note so sweet, 
a note of no defeat
a note of promise , 
a note that doesn't cheat
and pretend to be so flat,
and it never sounds sharp
but it doesn't miss a beat
how can one resounding note, ever miss a thing
and I wont let go of all the love it will bring
but best of all it doesn't have a start
and it doesn't have an end
and it drives away the demons of hell
and you know it doesn't bend
it doesn't take a break, and it doesn't need a clef
and it doesn't even stop when I take my last breath
one resounding note I love your beautiful sound
and in you all the beauty that I have truly found
