TRY TO LOVE
LOVE HIM ALWAYS
His light is dimming
it cannot burn
he might not make it
one more day
his heart is breaking
his bones are longing
to be held
Love him always
Love him always
Hold him, don’t let go
I’m your voice inside
Saying don’t lose hope
Just believe in love
No one knows how much he hurts
he acts like nothing is wrong
most days he can survive
by himself
it is the nights that ruin him
Love him always
Love him always
Hold him, don’t let go
I’m your voice inside
Saying don’t lose hope
Just believe in love
It kills him not being with her
he knows fighting will not help
it really could be beautiful
if they only fell in love
Love him always
Love him always
Hold him, don’t let go
I’m your voice inside
Saying don’t lose hope
Just believe in love
CRY KNOWING HE’S GONE
He gave his word
She quietly jumped inside
Very happy, so in love
Thought it would last
She cries at night
Donning her cries like sin
Knowing he’s gone
Never to return again
Her biggest fear
Is being alone
Now she cannot breathe
She has no air
She cries at night
Donning her cries like sin
Knowing he’s gone
Never to return again
No one can take her life
She is dying underneath
She cries at night
Donning her cries like sin
Knowing he’s gone
Never to return again
ONE
He does beautiful dancing
He sings just like my heart
He is my muse
He is always on my mind
He is always on my mind
And I want everyone to know
That I like him
I want everyone to know
That he is my…
One try
One hope
One love
He has a song in his heart
He hides the pain in his eyes
He is so like me
He is so like me
It’s pretty simple
It’s pretty easy
One try
One hope
One love
One try
One hope
One love
LOVE LASTS SO LONG
What love takes away
life gives it back.
Love leaves you longing for life.
You pick lovely flowers
on top of a hill that
always is picking you up.
Love lasts so long.
Love lasts so long.
Love lasts so long.
People no longer long for love.
Opposites at least love each other.
You know as each day passes,
a little love lights up your way.
Longing for love is putting people
at love’s ready life.
Love lasts so long.
Love lasts so long.
Love lasts so long.
LET LOVE IN
I never thought I might feel this love
It seemed impossible
I waited for you to come take me away
But you never appeared
I begged you not to forget me
Please tell me you remember
Now make sure remember to...
Let love in
Open your heart
Let love in
You might never know love
Let it in
Let your own heart live
In your own time
Let it pour out from inside
I wanted to be the one
Who never cried
But rest assured
I just get by
I only want the best for you
Will you save really good thoughts for me too?
I begged you not to forget me
Please tell me you remember
Now make sure remember to...
Let love in
Open your heart
Let love in
You might never know love
Let it in
I LOVE YOU MORE EACH DAY
I am so strong, I am so proud.
I am so quiet, I am so loud.
I am your daughter, I am your friend.
I will love you until the end.
I love you, I love you
And you love me too.
I love you, I love you
And we know it's true.
Yes, we know it's true.
I see you love me and I see
The way you kiss my face each day.
I see the way you are with me.
I see the person and know you're free.
I love you, I love you
And you love me too.
I love you, I love you
And we know it's true.
Yes, we know it's true.
I love you, I love you
And you love me too.
I love you, I love you
And we know it's true.
Yes, we know it's true.
I MISS YOU
I hate you
I love you
I want you to hold me very badly
My heart is broken
I’m playing with you
I want to go back to the boy who knew so well
how to hold my face in his hands
in his hands
I miss you and
I hope that you miss me too
I miss you and
I hope that you miss me too
you miss me too you miss me too
I played you like a game
I hope you treat your new girl the same
as you treated my heart
my heart, my heart
I miss you and
I hope that you miss me too
I miss you and
I hope that you miss me too
you miss me too you miss me too
I miss you and
I hope that you miss me too
I miss you and
I hope that you miss me too
you miss me too you miss me too
MY FRIEND
Little girl is playing all alone
Little boy is not for he is bright
Little girl thinks she’s never going to be
No, it’s little boy who might
Be the friend
be the light
Make it better
make it right
Be everything she needs tonight
In little girl’s world she is in good hands
She’s surrounded by people that care
In little boy’s world he is trying to be strong
Just trying to be her someone
Be the friend
be the light
Make it better
make it right
Be everything she needs tonight
In little girl’s life there is so much to pray for
There is hope, pain, and joy
In little boy’s life there is love for her
He didn’t know it was there
Be the friend
be the light
Make it better
make it right
Be everything she needs tonight
TODAY, NOT TOMORROW
Can you not lie?
Can you be ever true?
Can you try?
Can I try too?
Certain moments have no beauty
nothing but hurt and sorrow
You see just what you want
Today and not tomorrow
Can you be yourself
in the red car you drive?
Have until tomorrow,
you have tomorrow to hold to.
Certain moments have no beauty
nothing but hurt and sorrow
You see just what you want
Today and not tomorrow
Do you hear your heart beating?
Do you fear your ghosts seeing who you are?
Who you are?
Certain moments have no beauty
nothing but hurt and sorrow
You see just what you want
Today and not tomorrow
THE LOVE YOU TAKE
Today it has been so long
since I saw you.
It doesn’t hurt the way it did last June.
I hardly notice anymore
but days pass by when I’m not sure,
did you care or was it in my head?
If you take my love
you need to give a little back.
If you feel you owe nothing
you were wrong.
I feel we have so much left to give.
Try to remember
the love you take comes from me.
I don’t offer my love either way.
I love each perfect little moment we shared.
I love really knowing someone,
knowing how to love someone like you.
If you take my love
you need to give a little back.
If you feel you owe nothing
you were wrong.
I feel we have so much left to give.
Try to remember
the love you take comes from me.
I may one day see you but you
may not know.
I will hold you close to my heart.
I quit waiting to hear
“I love you”.
I need you to remember.
If you take my love
you need to give a little back.
If you feel you owe nothing
you were wrong.
I feel we have so much left to give.
Try to remember
the love you take comes from me.
THE MAN I KNEW
There was a man
I knew inside and out.
I knew his awful sadness
I knew his pain and doubt.
I knew a girl
who laughed always.
I knew a girl
who held his heart.
The man I knew was handsome.
The girl I knew sang do re mi.
They were so divided.
Even then, they were so in love.
I knew a man
who played great piano.
I knew a girl
she loved to dance.
I knew a man
who knew each moment
he was lucky
to have this girl in his life.
The man I knew was handsome.
The girl I knew sang do re mi.
They were so divided.
Even then, they were so in love. (repeat)
LOVE SARAH
Certainly, certainly you.
Certainly, certainly you.
Like an unchanged rose,
Your beauty stays.
It touches people wherever
Your love for me goes.
You hear my love for you,
It takes your breath away.
Certainly, certainly you.
Certainly, certainly you.
You're an old soul,
Whose heart loves all.
Look into your beingness,
And love our bond.
Love our bond,
And really possess motherly love.
Certainly, certainly you.
Certainly, certainly you.
I love you Mommy,
I love you.
I love you Mommy,
I love you.
You love me more than
Everyone else in the world.
Certainly, certainly you.
Certainly, certainly you.
HOPE DOES AS WE WISH
Pointing towards love, our destinies have found,
how special each radiant beam can be.
The beam of love, the beam of laughter,
is radiated between us.
You are my sister; I am your courage.
You are my light; I am your pride.
A hopeful wish will keep us together as many miles keep us apart. We will always be together in our hearts.
And if we keep hope in our hearts, hope will be our guiding star. Wish upon a hopeful star wherever you are.
You came to me with your open soul.
I came right in with a cherished gift.
You made it real,
my dreams came true,
and then we set sail to the stars.
You are my sister; I am your courage.
You are my light; I am your pride.
A hopeful wish will keep us together as many miles keep us apart. We will always be together in our hearts.
And if we keep hope in our hearts, hope will be our guiding star. Wish upon a hopeful star wherever you are.
Our bond is never to be broken as we have our songs.
And as the chapter of our dreams change our music carries on. We’ll inspire, we’ll give hope, we’ll wish upon our stars, to radiate to one another from oh so afar.
You are my sister; I am your courage.
You are my light; I am your pride.
A hopeful wish will keep us together as many miles keep us apart. We will always be together in our hearts.
And if we keep hope in our hearts, hope will be our guiding star. Wish upon a hopeful star wherever you are.
We are sisters; we are courageous.
We are the light amongst the dark.
Hope keeps our flicker going miles and miles apart.
