I'm weary from fighting please let it end
We need a ceasefire for our hearts to mend
I'll wave a white flag to lighten our load
And finally, admit it's the end of our road.

That road once was smooth, a pleasure to walk
But now we can see we have come to a fork
Which way do we turn? Is it left is it right?
Whichever we choose its the end of our fight.

When did we stop caring when did the love die?
It seems like it happened in the blink of an eye
We used to embrace and kiss under the stars
Now we are hurting with our battle scars.

I hope we'll look back on these hopeless years
And remember the joy and forget all the tears
We'll count all the blessings that we were bestowed
Before we approached the end of our road.

God sat upon his heavenly throne
And surveyed his work below
The stars were in their heavens
The moon was all aglow.

The animals were sleeping
The birds were in their trees
The sun had set, the sea had calmed
The winds were now at ease.

The flowers had closed their petals
The trees were standing tall
The grass made not a murmur
The rain did gently fall.

For this was the beginning
Of the world that He designed
For every man and woman
To be known as all Mankind

Welcome me back with open arms
Say I don't need to explain
Let's put the past behind us
And start all over again.

I'll try to erase the pain that I caused
And I'll wipe away all your tears
We'll turn back the clock and re-write the book
And delete all the miserable years.

We'll try to recapture the love we once knew
We'll do all the things we enjoyed
We'll try to relive the life we once had
Before it was all destroyed.

If you ask me to leave I will go
I will leave you to your own devices
I'll walk out of your life and never return
I hope it's worth what the price is.

You have told me time after time
We'd be better off living alone
Well now here's your chance to prove it
By living your life on your own.

You seem to think grass is greener
On the other side of the fence
Well now you're about to discover
As your new life's about to commence.

You have your new life without me
Bravo, well done, take a bow
But I can't help but wonder if you really wanted
The loneliness you're feeling now.

Shall we dance this life of ours?
Shall we tango through the years?
We'll rumba through the happy times
And cha cha through the tears.

We'll salsa through the sleepless nights
And waltz through teenage doom
And when we have our empty nest
We'll jive in every room!

And when the reaper comes to call
We'll foxtrot in his face
We'll shine our shoes and give a wave
And tap dance happily to our grave.

I am the colour in your monochrome life
I am the cutting edge of your knife
I am the garment you wear when you're cold
I am your grasp when losing your hold
I am your sanity when you howl at the moon
I am your melody when you're out of tune
I am your power when you run out of steam
I am your nightmare when you dare to dream
I am your strength when you're feeling weak
I am your lips when you struggle to speak
I am your hands when you kneel down in prayer
I am your breath when you're gasping for air
I am your shelter from the battering storm
I am the fire when you need to be warm
I am the welcome when you arrive
I am simply the reason that you are alive.

A memory is a photograph
Captured in your mind
Some are sharp and clear
Some are worn and lined.
Each one has a time and date
Stamped upon your heart
Some you look at kindly
Some you tear apart.
Every tiny detail brings a tear or smile
A choice we made, a price we paid
Such memories will never fade.
Memories will always stay
In a box inside your head
To open when you're lonely
Or at night when in your bed
When each new sun arises and shines upon our day
Let's make sure new memories are made to store away
