Take The Time

Each of us has come here
With a story of our own
But we wait in restless silence
So no one ever knows
There is one who sits in loneliness
On the edge of dispair
While another person longs to love
With so much life to share

Someone cannot feel the warmth of love
Through a wall that's built with time
Being burned so often
Makes the heart as cold as ice
There's somebody hurting
From a wound that doesn't heal
And the touch of human hands
Could bring a comfort that is real

Which one are you
Which one are you near
Can you reach across the emptiness
Can you touch the heart of someone here

Take the time
To love somebody
Oh take the time
To show someone you care
Will you have another chance to be
The answer to a prayer
Take the time

We come from different places
And the pain has different names
With different circumstances
But the feelings are the same
If we let down our defenses
And we tear down all the walls
In the center of our souls we find
No differences at all

Which one are you
Which one are you near
Can you reach across the emptiness
Can you touch the heart of someone here

Take the time
To love somebody
Oh take the time
To show someone you care
Will you have another chance to be
The answer to a prayer
Take the time

There's a time when only you will know
When the Spirit speaks within your soul
Dare to reach beyond yourself
And let love go

Take the time
To love somebody
Come on and take the time
To show someone you care
Will you have another chance to be
The answer to a prayer
Take the time

Past, Present And Future

The past, past, well now let me tell you about the past
The past is filled with silent joys and broken toys,
laughing girls and teasing boys,
Was I ever in love? I called it love, I mean, it felt like love,
There were moments when, well, there were moments when

Present, Go out with you? Why not
Do I like to dance? Of Course,
Take a walk along the beach tonight? I'd love to,
But don't try to touch me, don't try to touch me
Cos that will never happen again,
Shall we dance

The future, Tommorow? well tommorows a long way off
Maybe someday I'll have somebody's hand
Maybe somewhere someone will understand
You know I used to sing a tisket a tasket a green and yellow basket
I'm all packed up and I'm on my way and I'm gonna fall in love,
But at the moment it doesn't look good
At the moment it will never happen again

I don't think it will ever happen again.

Who I was born to be - Susan Boyle lyrics

When I was a child
I could see the wind in the trees
And I heard a song in the breeze
It was there, singing out my name

But I am not a girl
I have known the taste of defeat
And I've finally grown to believe
It will all came around again

And though I may not know the answers
I can finally say I am free
And if the questions led me here
Then I am who I was born to be

And so here am I
Open arms and ready to stand
I've got the world in my hands
And it feels like my turn to fly

Though I may not know the answers
I can finally say I am free
And if the questions led me here
Then I am who I was born to be

When I was a child
There were flowers that bloomed in the night
Unafraid to take in the light
Unashamed to have braved the dark

Though I may not know the answers
I can finally say I am free
And if the questions led me here
Then I am who I was born to be
I am who I was born to be

Flying On Your Own

You Were Never More Strong Girl
You Were Never More Alone
Once There Was Two, Now There's Just You
Your Flying On Your Own

You Were Never More Happy Girl
You Were Never Oh So Blue
Once Heartaches Begin, Nobody Wins
Your Flying On Your Own

And When You Know The Wings You Ride
Can Keep You In The Sky
There Isn't Anyone Holding Back You
First You Stumble, Then You Fall
You Reach Out And You Fly
There Isn't Anything That You Can't Do

You Were Never More Wise Girl
You Were Never More A Fool
Once You Break Through, Its All Up To You
Your Flying On Your Own

You Were Never More Together
You Were Never More Apart
Once Pieces Of You, Were All That You Knew
Your Flying On Your Own

And When You Know The Wings You Ride
Can Keep You In The Sky
There Isn't Anyone Holding Back You
First You Stumble, Then You Fall
You Reach Out And You Fly
There Isn't Anything That You Can't Do

And When You Know The Wings You Ride
Can Keep You In The Sky
There Isn't Anyone Holding Back You
First You Stumble, Then You Fall
You Reach Out And You Fly
There Isn't Anything That You Can't Do

Reba McEntire - Thank you, you walked with me on many a dark night

Forever Love

The first time I laid my eyes on you I knew.
We'd spend this life side by side.
I still feel the same though you're so far away.
I swear that you'll always be my.

Forever love.
I promise you.
Someday we'll be together.
Forever love.
I won't give up.
No matter what.
I'll be waiting for you.
Forever love.

Minutes and hours and years may go by.
But my heart knows nothing of time.
So don't cry, just keep me right there.
In your dreams.
And hold on to these words of mine.

Forever love.
I promise you.
Someday we'll be together.
Forever love.
I won't give up.
No matter what.
I'll be waiting for you.
Forever love.

Love is the road to our destiny.
Nothing can change what is meant to be.

Forever love.
I promise you.
Someday we'll be together.
Forever love.
I won't give up.
No matter what.
I'll be waiting for you.
Forever love.

Till You Love Me

I sent you roses, I warned you I would
Do all that I could to show you the way that I feel
Please, don't say I'm wasting my time
I've got nothin' but time so I'll do all that I can to catch
That ghost of a chance

The sunlight, the moonlight
Are beyond my control
And there are stars in the heavens
That I'll never hold
But if dreams give you power
Then I'm strong enough to offer my heart
And never give up till you love me
Till you love me

I looked in your eyes, so bright and so blue
And that's when I knew that you could be mine
If good things come to those who will wait
Well, I guess I can wait if that's what I have to do
Oh, it's worth it for you

The sunlight, the moonlight
Are beyond my control
And there are stars in the heavens
That I'll never hold
But if dreams give you power
Then I'm strong enough to offer my heart
And never give up till you love me
Till you love me...

Lonely Alone

I could stop right here turn this car around.
Walk back through the door put my suitcase down.
Tell you I'm sorry and things would be alright I know.
But it all comes down to the lesser of the two.
Alone by myself or alone with you.
And if I have to be lonely I'd rather be lonely alone.

I'd rather miss someone out on this highway.
Than someone who's sittin' just three feet away.
And I'd rather be fightin' some old memories,
than to wonder if you ever really love me.

I could keep going on like I have all along.
Telling myself that there's nothin' wrong.
But if I have to be lonely I'd rather be lonely alone.

I'd rather miss someone out on this highway.
Than someone who's sittin' just three feet away.
And I'd rather be fightin' some old memories,
than to wonder if you ever really love me.

I don't know what I'll do, I don't know where I'll go.
There's a lot I'm not sure of but
one thing I know. If I have to be lonely,
I'd rather be lonely alone. If I have to be lonely, I'd
rather be lonely alone.

Miss Billie Holiday

The Man I Love

Someday he'll come along, The man I love
And he'll be big and strong, The man I love
And when he comes my way
I'll do my best to make him stay
He'll look at me and smile, I'll understand
Then in a little while, He'll take my hand
And though it seems absurd
I know we both won't say a word

Maybe I shall meet him Sunday, 
Maybe Monday, maybe not
Still I'm sure to meet him one day
Maybe Tuesday will be my good news day

He'll build a little home, That's meant for two
From which I'll never roam, Who would, would you
And so all else above
I'm dreaming of the man I love

My Man

Channing Pollock/Maurice Yvain / Albert Willemetz/Jaques Charles

It cost me a lot
But there's one thing that I've got
It's my man
It's my man

Cold or wet
Tired, you bet
All of this I'll soon forget
With my man

He's not much on looks
He's no hero out of books
But I love him
Yes, I love him

Two or three girls
Has he
That he likes as well as me
But I love him

I don't know why I should
He isn't true
He beats me, too
What can I do?

Oh, my man, I love him so
He'll never know
All my life is just despair
But I don't care
When he takes me in his arms
The world is bright
All right

What's the difference if I say
I'll go away
When I know I'll come back
On my knees someday

For whatever my man is
I am his forevermore
