Up in the morning
It’s 5:21
My dreaming is over
But my thoughts have begun

It all starts out slowly
As I lay in the bed
I gotta get moving
There’s a long day ahead

I pull on my Levi’s
And I walk out the door
Your memory is so strong
It’s hard to ignore.

I start up the pick up
And I get on the road
But in my subconscious
Comes a heart overload

You’re there in my memory
Your there in my heart
This distance between us
Well it tears me apart

You’re there in my memory
Deep down in my soul
These tears that I’m crying
Only you can console

In my mind there’s no free time
As I go through day
Heart and mind focused
From you they don’t stray

What I hold on to
No person can steel
Only you Vicki
Know the feelings I feel

As the evening it passes
And I lay down my head
I will always remember
Three words that you said

What I feel I can not deny it
Can't sell it borrow or buy it
A love that’s down in my bones
It happens to be my cornerstone

You’re there in my memory
I thought you should know
The love that we share
There’s no reason to let go.

The earth is such an evil place
With sickness, famine and the wars we face
Heavens tears fall from the sky
What men do the angles cry

Heartless souless evil men
Enjoy the pain they put you in
Choke the spirit out of you
Trample your dreams that's what they do

**** and rob your inner child
Satin laughing he's so beguiled
**** the faith inside of you
The gates of hell your passing through

Steal away your dignity
Inner peace is gone you see
Fear and dread they love to bread
On your soul the deamons feed

Now in darkness the earth is turning
Ashes flames your dreams are burning
No more love it's lost it's power
End of time has struck the hour

Hey, have you ever tried
Really letting go of the feelings you hide
Well there's no better time to start
Please woman open up your heart

I know you don't know me well
If your heart is mine only time will tell
And in my dreams I want you to know
You won't know love until you let go

Life can be short or long
Love can be right or wrong
And if you chose to show me your heart
Our love will paint a picture of priceless art

If you would only stop
And take a look inside of me
You would see the sadness
That's left a hole in me

The smile you once gave me
Has left with out a trace
And every time I see you
I seem so out of place

You have no feelings for me
You lost that long ago
And yes there will come a day
That I will let you go

The long days of pain
That once I had for you
They're something that will not remain
Cause I'll get over you

As I set here alone with the stars through the night
And my thoughts they come back to you
You're far from me way out of my sight
But my mind draws a picture of you
You're part of my morning, my noon, and my night
I just can't keep you away
You've been here forever, so clear in my mind
There's been something I've needed to say

Can we hold hands on a blanket under the moon
While the orchestra of crickets plays us a tune
We can sit by the fire out back in the yard
Loving you, woman, has never been hard
We can sit on a porch swing right up to the dawn
Slow dance to the radio till the night time is gone

You may be a hundred or a few miles away
You're still on my mind today
You've been here forever, so clear in my mind
I just don't know what to do
I may not have you but girl till I do
This is my love song to you

Can we hold hands on a blanket under the moon
While the orchestra of crickets plays us a tune
We can sit by the fire out back in the yard
Loving you, woman, has never been hard
We can sit on a porch swing right up to the dawn
Slow dance to the radio till the night time is gone

I have never wanted anyone
As much as I want you
I feel your very existence
In everything I do

My heart it pounds like thunder
Every time your close to me
I try so hard to encumber
But my heart just wants set free

I have never wanted anyone
The way that I want you
Don't want another woman
I just want to be with you

You fill my every day dream
You never leave my mind
These thoughts of you are extreme
With a love thats undefined

I never wanted anyone
So much as I want you
My love for you is genuine
Please understand it's true

You run through my mind at night
Just like a fever dream
Everything about you feels so right
We would make a beautiful team

I have never wanted anyone
As much as I want you
I feel your very existence
In everything I do

Everything about you
Is all but new to me
Though you feel just like an old flame
So familiar to my heart you see.

It's not like I just met you
You've been around before
But your spirit seems to speak to me
Like I've known you from before.

Your eyes they cut right through me
In a language that speaks love
Can't shake this hold you have on me
Your all that I think of.

You came from out of nowhere
You took me by surprise
I know you'll take me somewhere
With a love that never dies.

I know your not an old flame
But you feel so good to me
My love for you I will proclaim
Your all I want you see.

When I say I love you
It's because that's how I feel
A feeling deep inside of me
And what I feel is real

These moments and these feelings
Please know how much I care
You are one special woman
Your more than an affair

Each time I say I love you
Stronger it does grow
Something that I say to you
Cause I have to let you know

When I say I love you
My heart would never lie
You always be in my heart
Up until the day I die

Life is short
Don't let it pass by
Take time to live it
For tomorrow you die

Love is rare
And so hard to find
So reach out and grab it
Or it will leave you behind

Anger is bad
It will rot you inside
Make sure that you dump it
Or it will never subside

Fear is so awful
But we make it so strong
Make sure that you face it
To fix the things that are wrong

Memories are sweet
They're what we live for
Something to cherish
And can not ignore

The summer breeze hits my face
As the sun sets in the distance
My mind takes me to a happy place
Our time together so reminiscence

I can hear the warm soft breeze
It seems to call your name
My heart calls for a reprise
How will I ever be the same

I run too fast but I can't keep up
As time just passes by
Feeling like I'm all caged up
My love for you won't die

There's a sleepless night and a candle lit
Love so sweet but yet it's sour
You know I can't resist it
Your such a delicate flower

I've lost my mind
When you stole my heart
My pride lying on the floor
No big secret you don't love me anymore

Once again you walk away
Nothing left for me to say
Feelings in my heart you know
I don't want to ever let them go

You walk away so easily
Not a word that you say to me
Feelings that I can't let go
Afraid to let your feelings show

You walk away only time will tell
If this won't be our last fair well
Took my heart I'm an amputee
This heart of mine will not be free

You are my Angel
I live my life for you

You are my Angel
I would die for you to

Your are my Angel
You have the best of me

You are my Angel
My whole heart can't you see

Your are my Angel
You have a hold on me

Your my Angel
Nowhere else I want to be

Your my Angel
So kind and sweet

Your my Angel
You knock me off my feet

Your my Angel
And I'm in love with you

When I am near you I am so comfortable
You make me feel confident and secure
I could spend hours with you
How much time we can share I am unsure

You will know when you find the right one
Is something people have always said
I'm with her and not with you
But  you keep running through my head

I am drawn to you like a magnet
Your energy pulls me strong to you
You've stole my heart like a bandit
Surrendering everything is all that I can do

No one feels how lonely I am
My heart is empty
I have given it all to you
A heart so honest and true

Here I am alone again
On these uneasy streets I walk
The night air puts a chill on me
Lips frozen I can't talk

Where is the warmness of your heart
Will it come and save me
Where do I begin where do I start
To kiss the lips that will warm me

I feel you presence but your not around
Heavy like a ghost that's apon me
I reach but you never there
The sight of you will only confound me

All of the fun in my life is missing
Drinking in order to sooth me
Love is all I want from you
Missing the lips I could be kissing

Care for you
You bet I do
You mean the world to me
Your spirit has sunk it's teeth in me
And it will not let me go

Loving you
You bet I do
I want to keep you safe with me
Treat you like the woman
That you were meant to be

Make love to you
You be I do
Show you the passion in my heart
Take the time to worship you
And the lady that you are

Spend my life with you
You bet I do
And keep you safe and sound
Don't think I can live if you are not around

This life is hard
And I don't know why
With a heart that is marred
Nobody knows the tears I have cried

My hopes and the dreams
Why do they discard
All my feelings
Without any regard

Life is so fragile
And hard as a stone
Once we shared passion
Now I stand here alone

I'm lost without you
You know how I cared
And you know that I need you
Do you notice how I have been scarred

How do you know when a love is strong
Never a thought if it's right or wrong
One look from you is all it took
Your sparkling blue eyes they have me hooked

How do you know when a love is strong
Time spent together you want it prolonged  
You warm my heart with an invisible touch
To be hand in hand I want it so much

How do you know when a love is strong
When feelings for you end up in a song
The smell of your hair is perfectly sweet
One glimpse of you knocks me off of my feet

How do you know when a love is strong
Days spent apart are completely to long
And in my sleep your all that I dream
How do you know we don't make a beautiful team

How do you know when a love is strong
Never a thought if it's right or wrong
And what I am thinking all along
To be in your arms is where I belong

I’m not supposed to love to you
But you know how much I care
Every day I think of you
On my heart there's wear and tear

But I just couldn’t help myself
I fell in love with you
And most days I just walk around
Not knowing what to do

You’re not supposed to love me
It leaves me in despair
You’re not supposed to live your life
Wishing I were there

But I will always love you
And you will never be with me
Hopelessly in love with you
That is plain to see

Woman your heart is a puzzle
That I don't want to quit
I stand here a hand full of pieces
Oh how I try to make them fit

The puzzle of your heart goes together so slowly
My affection for you leaves me so lonely
It may take me forever to get the pieces to fit
I told you before I don't want to quit

Parts of the puzzle will never be found
I'll use pieces of mine that were cast around
I will fit them together affectionately
but that is the puzzle of you & a me

Falling for you was the easy thing to do
Having a permanent love is against the odds
Burning passion bleeding from every inch of me
So love sick hoping and praying that it's meant to be

I can't let you walk away without a trace
You can see the tracks of my tears upon my face
Knowing three words would change how I feel
To have a permanent love I know it's not real

These emotions I have you know they are real
I've fallen in love and that's what I feel
So love sick and knowing this will never be
There will never be a you and a me

Crossroads
In my life I have see a few
And no matter what turn I take
My thoughts always return to you

Crossroads
They will come and go
Choose the road that I will take
Your in my mind when I wake

Crossroads
Each one looks the same
Pick one and make a start
Forever you'll be in my heart

Crossroads
Headed on my lonely course
Dreams of you won't drift away
In my arm maybe someday

Crossroads

What do you do when the family friend dies?
You feel the pain and the tears that come to your eyes
You think back on the time that you had
And all the  memories that now make you sad

What do you do when the family friend dies?
You remember the days when he was a pup
When he cried in the night and you held him close up
He has grown old no more that Cute pup

What do you do when the family friend dies?
You think of the times both the good and the bad
The best friend that you ever had
Just trying to get one last loving touch
Everyone in the family loved him so much

What do you do when the family friend dies?
Repeating his name over and over again
Hoping somehow it will stop all the pain
When all of the tears have all but been cried.
No matter how much or how hard you try
The only thing to do is say farewell.
And a loving Goodbye.

Woman you are strong and confident
You are fearless gentle and wise
The courage you carry I see it in your eyes
You have a simple kindness
That lives and grows in you
Such a simple kindness could never be untrue

You are a beautiful and amazing woman
But the charm of a Mother shines through
You have the heart of a Lioness  
Your skills as a Mother are tried and true
And so on this Mothers Day
I hope you find happiness and love
And may God send you endless blessings
From Heaven up above.

You remain a mystery
Woman that's what you are to me
And let there be no doubt
I want to know what your all about

Tell me why it seems to me
That your such a mystery
A feeling so good I can feel sad
Why something good can hurt so bad

Such a mystery I lay awake at night
So many wrongs so many rights
My mind feeds my hearts desire
But it's your heart I want to acquire

Your mystery brings a tear to my eye
Only so many tears you can cry
Still after the heartache is over
My love for you will never die

You are a beautiful flower
Delicate and bright
With warmth and comfort
Covered in the sunlight

Life has been your garden
In the soil of heartbreak and love
Whispered support blows to you
From the heavens up above

The tear drops of life fall
And they have nourished all your roots
Still life has given you good times
Along flowers and sturdy shoots

You will keep on growing
In life's garden bed
Many days of growing
Are sure to be ahead

Though you may lose a petal
But you know how to cope
You still grow in a garden
A garden they call hope

My sweet Angel Face
No one could ever take your place
Always and forever in my heart
Your such an elegant work of art

Never plain sometimes hard to read
Under your spell I can't be freed
Magic blue eyes make me paralyzed
Can't break free no matter what I try

Devilish smile I lose control
Surrender to you heart and soul
Your dark hair shines in the sun
When I see it I come undone

Every time I look at you
Can't stop myself I fall for you
Not my lover but you are my friend
Pray to God that never ends

My heart cries
Every time you ignore me
I look to you
And you look the other way
I wake
Count the seconds till I see you
You treat it
Like it's just another day
And when we talk
Your focus is elsewhere
I'm in the room
It feels like I'm not even there
We were once close
A bond we happened to share
Now you make it feel
Like you don't even care.

You have heard it before
And I'll say it again
I am not like other men
Won't keep from you
The way I feel
Love is something
I don't want to steal
Can not give you
A perfect life
Don't want to be man and wife
Does not mean I can't give to you
This love of mine
That's pure and true
Do my best to take care of you
Promise to do right by you
Your my my Angel
You are my Star
And when you leave me
It will leave a scar
Upon this heart that beats for you
Up until the day I die
You know I'll never say goodbye

Woman you've really touched me
Deep down to the core you see
Heart and soul my spirituality
Freely given never taken from me
My affection for you I could not foresee
And where it goes and to what degree
Please know you mean the world to me
The love that I give you...you get it for free
No cost for my love it always will be
Again please know that you've really touched me
Deep in my heart you happen to be  
I'm head over heals I have to agree
These feelings for you I guarantee

You don't know how empty I feel
How lost I am without you
To uncover my heart what would it reveal
A respect for you so loving and true
Devotedness  that can't live without you

Could you understand how misplaced I am
Without you walking beside me
If I could explain how my heart can't abstain
Wanting to feel your own heart beat upon me

Wandering and lost my heart pays the cost
I cry myself to sleep nightly
As I lay in my bed dreams of you fill my head
The illusions of you continue to haunt me

How can I explain all of this pain
I feel cause I'm wanting to have you
I know it's not fair but my hearts in the air
Free falling but don't want to hurt you

These feelings you see won't let go of me
They are rooted deep down into my soul
I'm prayed upon by beast that's so strong
Only you are the one that can save me
