A Light That Shines For You
A space taken by your face became my favorite place
To go when I had to know that such beauty existed
It shines like stars in the dark like rushing blood into my heart
And once I've had a piece of it I just can't get enough of it
So be my love and let my life become a light that shines for you
With one small breath I say these words with one small thought I give you my world
I'll give you the stars above, joy, peace, and all my love
No sun, no star, is brighter than you are

Alive
You can trust me I've searched the whole wide world and nothing compares to you
believe me I've longed for a love as strong as the love you have for me
Your love makes me shake inside
It keeps me awake at night
It makes it's way through my veins and I'm alive

Black and White World
I come in peace, to sweep you off your feet
My love
And I need you, I live just to please you
Just to make you smile
Wherever you go, I'll be
Call on my name if ever you need me
If I should fall, I know you will catch me
'Cause that's just what true love should be
My love
And if I'm not good enough for you
Then I will find somebody who
Will stand right by your side
But who beter than I?
In this black and white world, you're colorful
In this plain-stone-girl world, a string of pearls
The prize for which I strive
The adrenaline that gives me drive
If you need blood, I'll bleed
Cut myself and let it pour out 'till I'm empty
When I'm bone-dry, yeah, I'll probably die
But at least I gave you life
My love

Everytime You Say Goodbye
Go right ahead
Bet you never meant to hurt me
But instead
You went and said those things you said
And I lost my head
You break my heart every time I feel a spark
And I die inside every time you say goodbye
Go right ahead
I thought you said you'd never hurt me
So why did you put me in this pain I'm in
That I feel again
Go right ahead
I thought what we had was special
But instead
You went and did those things you did
and destroyed my head

I'll Be There
When storms form I'll be there
When clouds come I'll be there
If your scared don't be scared
I will hold you close and you will fly

The Magic Mountain
Life goes by and people change
And all your memories fade
But one thing stays the same
Your touch will still be there
Your fingers through my hair
I feel it in the air
You will stay by my side
And I know you will cause you've
Stayed here many times
Life goes by and people fade
And all your dreams have changed
But one thing stays the same
My love will still be there
My fingers through your hair
I feel it in the air
I will stay by your side
And you know I will cause I've
Stayed here many times
On that magic mountain is loves true fountain
Where I made my wish and I wished for this
On that magic peak I heard you speak
When you made your wish and you wished for this
I wished for love
You wished for love
I gave you love
You gave me love

There He Was
Lo and behold there he was just what I was afraid of
Low I sunk deep into the grass but there he was screaming at me
Anyplace you call home I'll call it home too
And anywhere you run to I will follow you
If you don't believe me tell you what I'll do
Try to hide I'll find you then you'll know it's true
You've gone too far way beyond a friend way beyond obsessed

Too Much Distance
City of love
She left me for the city of love
Off into the world to see what she could find
As I stay behind
And all this time I see her face in my dreams
I'm wondering if she is dreaming about the same thing
Do I ever cross her mind, anytime
Upstate New York
She packed her bags for Upstate New York
So now I just sit and wait for her return
As my heart burns
And every night I hold her tight in my dreams
I hope and I pray she's wishing for the same thing
Do I ever cross her mind, anytime
God save the queen
While she's there under her royal regime
Oh Jesus, bring my baby back to me
So I can hold her in my arms
Cause I just want to love her
I just want to hold her tight
I just want her here
I just want her near
Cause I just want to love her

The Universe
Beside me I find doors that open and shock my eyes
They shock my eyes and they make me weak
Dark tints cause a brief blindness
But when I turn I see it all
I see it all and it makes me weep
The Universe
And so it began like this
And so it will end like this

Unusual
On a tree by the water a spirit sat drowning in laughter
In his eyes I saw grey skies but in his smile I saw a happy child
In his smile I saw a ghost
So unusual in many ways
On a leaf floating on the lake a small child sat counting his apples
In his eyes I saw blue skies but in his frown I saw he was down
In his frown I saw a ghost
In my eyes you'll see blue skies and in my smile you'll see a happy child
In my smile you'll see a ghost
So unusual in many ways
