The Key To Sharing

Still Trying To Be Loved
- Something Special -

I just want to tell you
something that you ought to know,
I’m going to express my feelings with what I want to
show
I want to show you
what you let my heart see,
I want to tell you
that you are truly something special to me…

my days are filled with happiness
because I no longer feel sad,
you made me forget
about the heartache I once had
embraced in your arms
from the hurt I feel free,
I hold you in mine
because you are truly something special to me…

you have mended this heart
which was twice broken in two,
I see myself as no one
if I were to be without you
lying awake at night
past the hours one, two and three;
trying to dream about you
because you are truly something special to me.
- Place Your Hand In Mine -

Whenever you get close to me
tingles run down my spine,
if only you were to be
the one that I may call mine
because I honestly think
we should waste no more time,
I’m thinking that you should
place your hand in mine…

whenever you get close to me
you send a spark through my heart,
I wonder just where it came from
I search to find where did it start
I ask the heavens when will be the day
when you will share with me your time,
I’m asking you if you will ever
place your hand in mine…

whenever you get close to me
you take the time to brighten up my day,
you take me to a distant land
where together you and I can stay
a land where you and I
will share a love of a different kind,
a place that you will lead me through
when you place your hand in mine.
- My True Love -

My mind is always with you
as my pillow gets so wet with tears,
my heart is longing for you
to restore the love we shared in the years
I have no clue of what to do
you can see the confusion in my eyes,
I have no one to call my own
and for this reason my loneliness cries
I continue to live on the edge
since the day you have been gone,
I look over my mistakes
and correct myself where I went wrong…

I will try whatever I must
I will try harder at what I can do,
anything to bring back our love
even more to bring back you
because without you here
I feel worthless it is plain to see,
I will cry for you
because you are everything to me
I have searched around this world
tell me where else can I go,
I love you more than life itself
I love you more than words could ever show.
- One Year Ago -

I became yours one year ago
when the sun began to set,
the magic of our first night together
is a moment that I won’t soon forget
I was kissing you-you were kissing me
when you asked me if I was sure,
I told you that I loved you and I meant it
and we went on to make a love that was pure…

the kisses were gently passionate
as the stars would continue to shine,
I knew that this moment together
would make me yours and make you mine
minute after minute-hour after hour
we made love that will be forever true,
no one can take away from what we had
because you gave your heart to me and I gave
my first time to you…

I became yours one year ago
when together we made a love that was real,
our moment and you are still special to me
and that is the way I will always feel
I will always feel that it was special
and know that what we shared was true,
because you gave your heart to me
and I gave my first time to you.
- Truth -

No one ever told me that
it would be something I’d be dreaming of,
I had no real idea about
the meaning of true love
I was never informed
how love can change its’ path,
I had to find out the hard way
that it hurts even when I laugh
there will be a time
when love will hurt you so much,
sometimes you won’t even find comfort
in the softest touch…

it can take a part of you
or steal your entire soul,
yet no matter how much you lose
your heart will have to mend to reach its’ goal
you won’t ever be able to hide
the hurt when love has taken its toll on you,
even though it may be inside
it will show in everything you do
you can give it everything in you
to make love pull through and shine,
yet your best won’t be enough
because loves’ truth is it just doesn’t work out
sometimes.
- Enamorado -

Dicen cuando estas enamorado
es para toda tu vida y mas,
el tiempo cuando tu mente y tu corazon
por fin viven en paz
dicen cuando estas enamorado
solamente piensas en tu amor,
y cuando ella esta lastimada
tu sientes su dolor
dicen cuando estas enamorado
avitas hacerle dano
y si estas retirado por un minuto
la llama’s para decirle “te extrano”
dicen cuando estas enamorado
tu sientes lo que es especial,
y nada te hace sentir feliz
mas que cuando te dice que ella se siente igual
dicen cuando estas enamorado
nunca llegas a descansar,
siempre haceiendo lo que puedes
para darle lo que le quieres dar
dicen cuando estas enamorado
le quieres dar un nuevo mundo,
algo de tu corazon
siempre quedandose juntos
yo escucho todo lo que dicen
porque yo estoy enamorado,
por favor dime que me escuchas
cuando yo te digo que te amo.
- Stolen My Heart -

The quiet sound of your sweet voice
tells me I will never feel lonely,
the gentle look from your soft eyes
lets me know you want to hold me
the comforting touch that comes
from your gentle finger tips,
is as heart-warming to me
as the kiss from your tender sweet round lips
nothing is missing from my life
you have made the difference from the start,
no one else can make me feel like this
because you are the one who has stolen my heart…

you are the one who brought me up
when I was feeling down,
there is no way I can control myself
whenever you are around
nothing in this world
could ever do for me so much,
not a single thing in existence
is as magical as your touch
I can’t imagine not having you
so I don’t want for us to part,
I never plan to let you go
because you the one who has stolen my heart.
- To You…-

Wondering what it would take
to help you have a change of heart,
would you see we were meant to be
if you gave us the chance to start
I would treat you as good as gold
you would be my only queen,
and if you opened up your heart
you would see just what I mean
I don’t care what obstacles would
pass us in a situation at hand,
all I know is through the toughest of times
by your side I will always stand
these few words I write for you
just to let you know how much I care,
and if you came to me I would show you
exactly how much I would share
I tend to ask myself the same questions
like the fool that I am,
what would it take to be blessed by God
and be the one to hold your hand
I’d take you here-I’d take you there
but most of all I’d take you by surprise,
I would be the only one there for you
I’d be the one to help you realize
that not another would dedicate
his heart or mind and remain true,
not another in this world would be
away for a minute and already missing you.
-…Would You Believe -

I want to feel for you
would you believe longer than the existence of time,
I want to know your dreams
would you believe I want to make them mine
I want to change this world of lies
where you are the only thing that is true,
all that may seem impossible
would you believe I want to do it for you
I want to hold you close
to me in the pouring rain,
I want to make you smile
would you believe I want to feel your pain…
would you believe I know what is beautiful
whenever I am looking at you,
would you believe I would make you happy
would you believe that I’d remain true
in this world without you
would you believe I would always hunger,
would you believe all I need is you
to make my heart grow stronger
would you believe in taking chances
and in a lifetime of love that is true,
would you believe I want to take that chance
would you believe I want to spend that lifetime loving you.
- Memorable -

I remember your eyes and your smile
I remember the beauty of your face,
I remember where I thought about taking you
I remember imagining that special place
I remember how you would laugh
and brought your hand up to your lips,
I remember the gentle touch of your skin
when you touched me with your tender finger-tips
I remember how you held me close
when I asked you for a dance,
I remember when we talked about
how we were brought together by chance
I remember when I would look up at you
I remember how you would smile at me,
I remember how nervous I would get
whenever it was you that I would see
I remember how you wore your hair
as it was tied up in a bun,
I remember the short time spent together
I remember how it was always fun
I remember how our eyes would lock
and neither of our heads could turn away,
no I can’t forget what I remember
I’ll remember it all until my dying day.
- My Heart -
I hand you this piece of me
that I plead you hold dear to your own,
feel the emotion deeper than any sea
and you’ll find yourself to never be alone
protect this fragile object of affection
as you protect yourself,
and your nights of loneliness will end
you shall never long for someone else
look into my eyes
and you will look into the window of my dreams,
with this piece that makes me…me
I’ll hold you together while I fall apart at the seams
always placing you ahead of others
making you my number one priority,
kissing you when we make love
cherishing every moment as heavenly
let me love you with all that I am
in return just be mine true,
this heart of mine I have let others borrow
yet now tonight I hand my heart to you.
Ageless Heart, Timeless Love, Endless Dream
- Eye of the Beholder -

I recall the flame
that crackled in your eyes,
just like the stars that shine
in the heavenly well lit skies
and I recall the walks we took
under those same bright stars,
I recall the dance we danced together
to a song that we called ours
another memory of your eyes
as clear as the purity of the sea,
reflecting the moon in the sky
as they look into me
I still hear your voice
unlike any other I’ve ever heard,
the free spirit of your nature
similar to that of a bird
haven’t forgotten your lips
the way I always saw them smile,
or the tenderness of your skin
as gentle as a new born child
and how could I dare forget
your long beautiful hair,
watching it swim calmly
in the breeze of the summer air
they say the good Lord is flawless
but I believe he has made a mistake that can’t be
denied,
instead of placing you in the heavens among his angels
he placed you with us…unworthy of being by your side.
