Starry, starry night
Paint your palette blue and grey,
Look out on a summer's day,
With eyes that know the darkness in my soul.
Shadows on the hills,
Sketch the trees and the daffodils,
Catch the breeze and the winter chills,
In colors on the snowy linen land.

Starry, starry night.
Flaming flowers that brightly blaze, 
Swirling clouds in violet haze,
Reflect in Vincent's eyes of china blue.
Colors changing hue, morning field of amber grain,
Weathered faces lined in pain,
Are soothed beneath the artist's loving hand.

For they could not love you,
But still your love was true.
And when no hope was left in sight
On that starry, starry night,
You took your life, as lovers often do.
But I could have told you, Vincent,
This world was never meant for one
As beautiful as you.

Starry, starry night.
Portraits hung in empty halls,
Frameless head on nameless walls,
With eyes that watch the world and can't forget.
Like the strangers that you've met,
The ragged men in the ragged clothes,
The silver thorn of bloody rose,
Lie crushed and broken on the virgin snow.

Now I think I know what you tried to say to me,
How you suffered for your sanity,
How you tried to set them free.
They would not listen, they're not listening still.
Perhaps they never will... 

..Love as alive as a storybook
Not a medical journal
Love that is whole and pure
Not compromising and rational
Love based on the heart
Not on contractual agreement or convenience
Love whose reciprocity is self evident
Not mutually or singularly exclusive
Love which permits the radiance
Not just the heat
Love meant wholly for one
Not potentially for many
Love as you always dreamed
Not that to which you habituated
Love that communicates through actions and symbolism
Not idle talk and practicality
Love in whose sacrifice of one
Makes greater the love of two
Not empty promises
And above all
Love in whose giver's light
Is always greater than the world's shadows
Love Exists

My angel, my friend
I will love you in your way
Come and go as God guides you
And know you are free
In my arms always

My heart won't bind you
My spirit won't try you
Hold my hand and we'll survive
Free as one our love will thrive

Together we breath freely
Side by side we see clearly
Embraced we sleep deeply
In love we share openly

Don't go changing, to try and please me,
You never let me down before
Don't imagine, you're too familiar
And I don't see you anymore.

I would not leave you, in times of trouble,
We never could have come this far,
I took the good times, I'll take the bad times,
I'll take you just the way you are.

Don't go trying, some new fashion,
Don't change the colour of your hair,
You always have my, unspoken passion,
Although I might not seem to care.

I don't want clever, conversation,
I never want to work that hard,
I just want someone, that I can talk to,
I want you just the way you are.

I need to know that you will always be
The same old someone that I knew,
What will it take till you believe in me,
The way that I believe in you?

I said I love you, and that's forever,
And this I promise from the heart,
I couldn't love you, any better,
I love you just the way you are.

I don't want clever, conversation,
I never want to work that hard,
I just want someone, that I can talk to,
I want you just the way you are.

I've got friends who love me
A big blue sky above me
And your two arms around me every night

Isn't that everything
I don't need anything
It's only the simple things I believe
That matter most in life
I'm more than satisfied
All that I have is all I need
Isn't that everything

Now I'm not saying I don't dream from time to time
Every girl I know loves the way a diamond shines
But when the party's over and the glitter starts to fade
It's all about your piece of mind at the end of every day

I know Jesus loves me
Up in that sky above me
I see that morning sun again and feel alive

Isn't that everything
I don't need anything
It's only the simple things I believe
That matter most in life
I'm more than satisfied
All that I have is all I need
Isn't that everything

We're only human, baby
We walk on broken ground
We lose our way 
We come unwound 
We'll turn in circles
We're never satisfied
We'll fall from grace
 Forget we can't fly
But through all the tears that we cry
We'll survive

Cause when we're torn apart
Shattered and scarred
Love has the grace to save us
We're just two tarnished hearts
But when in each other's arms
We become saints and angels

 I love your imperfections
 I love your everything
Your broken heart, your broken wings
I love you when you hold me
And when you turn away
I love you still and I'm not afraid
Cause I know you feel the same way
And you'll stay

Cause when we're torn apart
Shattered and scarred
Love has the grace to save us
We're just two tarnished hearts
But when in each other's arms
We become saints and angels

These feet of clay
They will not stray

'Cause when we're torn apart
Shattered and scarred
Love has the grace to save us
We're just two tarnished hearts
But when in each other's arms
We become saints and angels

He had strong defenses built, 
His heart to surround
Not for long, when she appeared 
All the walls tumbled down 

She had scars reminding her 
She was easily deceived 
Only tears convinced her 
Once again to believe 

His ego would bend
Learning the art of love 
Her heart soon would mend 
Learning the art of love 

They were two hearts tuned together 
And beating as one 
Ever new, each kiss was like
The very first one 

They explored each landscape 
Of their sweet intimacy
Never bored, love's horizon reached out 
Infinitely 

Both lovers and friends
Learning the art of love 
Homework never ends 
Learning the art of love 

Learning the art of love 
Requires some determination 
You search for the heart of love
In every different situation
You apply the art of love. 
 

Keep believing you soon will earn your turn to flash in the pan 
It's deceiving' cause nothing kills like this metropolis can 
Everywhere there's blind ambition
Dog eat dog and screw you 
You do unto others and they do unto you
Everyday you fight taxicabs and traffic, permanent frowns 
Lay awake at night wondering if you hear burglary sounds 

Think it's time to make my exit 
Kiss all this goodbye and 
Catch the next flight south connecting to my island life 

Look at me I'm a refugee from the island life 
I belong where the shade is palm and the mango's ripe
I'll do all my swinging in some hammock by a turquoise sea 
For free 

Guess it must be clear I do not belong in this cityscape 
I am not from here and I do intend to make my escape 
Take me back to waterfalls in volcanic canyons 
Where coconuts and orchids are my sole companions 

Look at me I'm a refugee from the island life
I belong where the shade is palm and the mango's ripe 
How inviting it would make always killing time if you
Came too 

Can't you see we're just refugees from the island life
We belong where the shade is palm and the mango's ripe 
We'll do all our swinging in some hammock by a turquoise sea 
For free
 

Some sprint to snatch the prize but
My goal's the far horizon.
I guess I'm obsessed
With that long slow distance.
The fleet of feet won't please you
All speed, they love and leave you
Not me, as you see
I love long slow distance.

My pulse beats strong and steady
My pace won't stall when I hit the wall
Others fall by the wayside, heat-exhausted
But I'm no coward, I'm solar-powered
As long as I know that you'll be there with me
Face to face when I break the tape
For the kiss when we cross the finish line.

Some play the tempo given
I hear a different rhythm
Do you hear it too?
For the long slow distance.
My stride is smooth and easy
Your touch can always lead me
Off-route in pursuit
Of some long slow distance.

Just before our love got lost you said,
"I am as constant as a northern star."
And I said, "Constantly in the darkness
Where's that at?
If you want me I'll be in the bar."
On the back of a cartoon coaster
In the blue TV screen light
I drew a map of Canada
Oh Canada
With your face sketched on it twice
Oh, you're in my blood like holy wine
You taste so bitter and so sweet
Oh I could drink a case of you, darling
And I would still be on my feet
Oh I would still be on my feet

Oh I am a lonely painter
I live in a box of paints
I'm frightened by the devil
And I'm drawn to those ones that ain't afraid
I remember that time you told me, you said,
"Love is touching souls"
Surely you touched mine
'Cause part of you pours out of me
In these lines from time to time
Oh, you're in my blood like holy wine
You taste so bitter and so sweet
Oh I could drink a case of you, darling
Still, I'd be on my feet
I would still be on my feet

I met a woman
She had a mouth like yours
She knew your life
She knew your devils and your deeds
And she said,
"Go to him, stay with him if you can
But be prepared to bleed"
Oh but you are in my blood
You're my holy wine
You're so bitter, bitter and so sweet
Oh, I could drink a case of you, darling
Still I'd be on my feet
I would still be on my feet

No rush though I need your touch
I won't rush your heart
Until you feel on solid ground
Until your strength is found

I'll fill those canyons in your soul
Like a river lead you home
And I'll walk a step behind
In the shadows so you shine
Just ask it will be done
And I will prove my love
Until you're sure that I'm "the one"

Somebody else was here before
He treated you unkind
And broken wings need time to heal
Before a heart can fly

I'll fill those canyons in your soul
Like a river lead you home
And I'll walk a step behind
In the shadows so you shine
Just ask it will be done
And I will prove my love
Until you're sure that I'm "the one"

Trust in me and you'll find a heart so true
All I want to do is give the best of me to you
And stand beside you

Just ask it will be done
And I will prove my love
Until you're sure that I'm "the one"

There will finally come a moment,
When one man, and one woman,
Give everything they've been waiting for.

I'll take you in my arms again.
Feel your skin against my skin.
And let the sheet fall slowly to the floor.
'Til nothing comes between us anymore.

In my soul, I can feel you,
As I cross the Mississippi,
You're the river flowing in me coming home.
I count each heartbeat,
'Til the moment we're together,
And the distance can't be measured.
That's all that keeps me going
When I'm gone.

There will finally come a moment,
When one man, and one woman,
Give everything that they've been waiting for.
I'll take you in my arms again.
I'll feel your skin against my skin.
And let the sheet fall slowly to the floor.
'Til nothing comes between us anymore.

Everywhere I go
They're staring at her
Every man I know
He wants to have her
I guess I ought to be
A jealous man

I look the other way
They're hittin' on her
Every night and day
They telephone her
They try to get to her
But I know they can't

Cause she never lets it go to her heart
She never lets it go that far
When they start talkin'
She starts walkin'
Right back to my arms
She can turn every head
But she never lets it go to her heart

She walks into the room
And everybody watches every move
Hopin' she don't love me
I know it by the way
They hang around
But they don't realize
There's more to her than what meets the eye
That's why I'm certain
No matter what they do to reach her now

She never lets it go to her heart
She never lets it go that far
When they start talkin'
She starts walkin'
Right back to my arms
She can turn every head
But she never lets it go to her heart

When they start talkin'
She starts walkin'
Right back to my arms
She can turn every head
But she never lets it go to her heart

She's like the wind through my tree 
She rides the night next to me 
She leads me through moonlight 
Only to burn me with the sun 
She's taken my heart 
But she doesn't know what she's done 

Feel her breath on my face 
Her body close to me 
Can't look in her eyes 
She's out of my league 
Just a fool to believe 
I have anything she needs 
She's like the wind 

I look in the mirror and all I see 
Is a young old man with only a dream 
Am I just fooling myself 
That she'll stop the pain 
Living without her 
I'd go insane 

Feel her breath on my face 
Her body close to me 
Can't look in her eyes 
She's out of my league 
Just a fool to believe 
I have anything she needs 
She's like the wind 

Remember, when your kite hits the ground
And your smile turns upside down
It's only going on inside you
Whenever the libretto won't do
And all the notes become too blue
Remember there's a song inside you

Cara mia, if you're ever lost at sea
Just call on me
You always have my love to guide you
When you give more than you're gettin'
When the tempest starts to threaten
You always have my love to hide you
You always have my love inside you

Whenever you are feeling some curse
And you get locked into reserve
Then just send up a flare and I'll find you
Or anytime your engine won't start
From running on a broken heart
Remember that the past is behind you

Cara mia, if you're ever lost at sea
Just call on me
You always have my love to guide you
When you give more than you're gettin'
When the tempest starts to threaten
You always have my love to hide you

The look of love 
Is in your eyes. 
A look your smile 
Can't disguise. 
The look of love, 
It's saying so much more than 
These words could ever say. 
And when my heart has hurt, 
Well, it takes my breath away.

I can hardly wait to hold you, 
Feel my arms around you. 
How long I have waited, 
Waited just to love you, 
Now that I have found you. 

You've got that look of love. 
It's on your face. 
The look that time can't erase. 
You're mine tonight. 
Let this be just the start of 
So many nights like this. 
Let's take what lover's found 
And then seal it with a kiss. 

I can hardly wait to hold you, 
Feel my arms around you. 
How long I have waited, 
Waited just to love you, 
Now that I have found you, 
Don't ever go. 
Don't ever go. 
I love you so. 

Met you in a café 
At a table meant for two 
You were sitting by your lonesome 
When I sat down with you
Tried hard not to show it 
But I couldn’t help but see 
That you wore your broken heart 
out on your sleeve 
And your loneliness could not disguise 
Your beauty and your charm

Thought if I ever get you,
shattered lady, in my arms 
I’m gonna rock you baby to sleep 
I’m gonna make you crazy over me 
I’m gonna hold you like you’ve 
never been held before 
And love you till you tell me
you can’t love anymore 
I’m gonna shake your emotion 
right down to your soul
And then I’m gonna love you 
all over again and out of control 
If this is how love is supposed to feel 
Baby I know I’ve fallen head over heels 
I’m gonna rock you baby 

Over open conversation
and a bottle of red wine
You said this world is full of users 
and I know that I’ve had mine 
We danced a little slow dance 
until they closed that café down 
You said ‘what would be the chances
that tonight I finally found
Someone who makes me feel 
like my life is just begun?’
I said ‘girl believe in me 
and I’ll show you how it’s done’ 
.

The world will turn and the seasons will change,
and all the lessons we will learn will be beautiful and strange.
We'll have our fill of tears, our share of sighs.
My only prayer is that you realize
you'll always be beautiful in my eyes.

You will always be beautiful in my eyes.
And the passing years will show
that you will always grow more beautiful in my eyes.

When there are lines upon my face that form a lifetime of smiles,
and when the time comes to embrace for one long last while,
we can laugh about how time really flies.
We won't say goodbye 'cause true love never dies.
You'll always be beautiful in my eyes.

Over and over again 
I tried to tell myself that we 
Could never be more than friends 
And all the while inside 
I knew it was real 
The way you make me feel 

Lying here next to you 
Time just seems to fly 
Needing you more and more 
Let's give love a try

Sweeter and sweeter love grows 
And Heaven's there for those 
Who fooled the tricks of time 
With the hearts of love they find 
True love in a special way 

The closer I get to you 
The feeling comes over me 
Pulling closer sweet as the gravity

I've got you under my skin. 
I've got you deep in the heart of me. 
So deep in my heart that you're really a part of me. 
I've got you under my skin. 
I'd tried so not to give in. 
I said to myself: this affair never will go so well. 
But why should I try to resist when, baby, I know so well 
I've got you under my skin? 

I'd sacrifice anything come what might 
For the sake of havin' you near 
In spite of a warnin' voice that comes in the night 
And repeats, repeats in my ear: 
Don't you know, little fool, you never can win? 
Use your mentality, wake up to reality. 
But each time that I do just the thought of you 
Makes me stop before I begin 
'Cause I've got you under my skin. 

I would sacrifice anything come what might 
For the sake of havin' you near 
In spite of the warning voice that comes in the night 
And repeats - how it yells in my ear: 
Don't you know, little fool, you never can win? 
Why not use your mentality - step up, wake up to reality? 
But each time I do just the thought of you 
Makes me stop just before I begin 
'Cause I've got you under my skin. 
Yes, I've got you under my skin. 

You bring the sun out
To warm my life up
To make my love grow everyday

You bring the stars out
To light the night up
To make the darkness go away

I reach to you
You reach to me
No matter where I go 
I know you'll always be
Never to far
Far from my heart
I'll always have you here
I always know you're near 

You bring the sun out
To warm my life up
To make my love grow everyday

You bring the stars out
To light the night up
To make the darkness go away

What I'm looking for
Is a love that's forever
Someone who can capture my soul in a heartbeat
And stay for all time

What I'm praying for
Is a match made in heaven
Someone who will worship my body
And still put his heart on the line

Commitment
Someone who'll go the distance
I need somebody with staying power
And who will make me go weak in the knees

Commitment
And everything that goes with it
I need honor and love in my life from somebody
Who's playing for keeps

What I'm searching for
Is a man who'll stand by me
Who will walk through the fire
And be my flame in the night

I won't settle for
Less than what I deserve
A friend and a lover who'll love me
For the rest of my life

Commitment
Someone who'll go the distance
I need somebody with staying power
And who will make me go weak in the knees

Commitment
And everything that goes with it
I need honor and love in my life from somebody
Who's playing for keeps

I've had promises broken
Three words left unspoken
They just left me aching for more
But I've found temptation
I won't be impatient
There's one thing that's worth waiting for

Commitment
And everything that goes with it
I need honor and love in my life from somebody
Who's playing for keeps

  Completely, want to give my love completely
  I'd rather be alone than be in love just half the way
  I want to find someone that I can trust
  Completely, want to give my heart completely
  To someone who'll completely give their heart to only me
  And when I find that one
  That's when I'll fall in love

  Completely
  Not half but whole
  With heart and soul
  Completely
  Not in between
  But everything
  Completely
  That's the way it's got to be
  The way I want someone to fall in love with me

  Forever, want to feel the word forever
  And know there'll be somebody there forever by my side
  And when that feeling comes
  That's when I'll give my love
Completely

   It's all or nothing at all for this heart of mine
  And I won't give up this heart till the day I find
  Someone who needs me
  Completely
  The way I need someone to fall in love with me

  If I had to paint a picture 
  To show the world how love can really be 
 I would use the brightest colours 
       To create a vision of harmony 
 It would be a reality 
     'Cause it's only what's inside my heart 

You would see I've always loved you
Right from the very start 

  Tell me, what is the colour of love? 
What do you see? 
Is it warm, is it tender, when you think of me 
  I see the colour of love when I'm thinking of you 
 As a picture perfect painting of love forever true

   The colours of the rainbow turn grey 
whenever you're so far away 
 It changes like the seasons
You're the reason it happens that way
What you see are colours of emotion 
Reflecting what I feel deep inside 
 Now I'd like to take a look at emotions that you hide 

Tell me what is the colour of love? 
What do you see?
 Is it warm, is it tender, when you thing of me 
 I see the colour of love when I'm thinking of you 
 As a picture perfect painting of love forever true 

 And though many may try to keep us apart 
 The colours that I see in you
will shine a light to see us through 
  No matter what the world will do I'll always love you 

      Oh what is the colour of love

It was no accident me finding you.
Someone had a hand in it,
Long before we ever knew.

Now I just can't believe you're in my life.
Heaven's smiling down on me,
As I look at you tonight.

I tip my hat to the keeper of the stars.
He sure knew what he was doing,
When he joined these two hearts.

I hold everything,
When I hold you in my arms.
I've got all I'll ever need,
Thanks to the keeper of the stars.

Soft moonlight on your face,
Oh how you shine.
It takes my breath away,
Just to look into your eyes.

I know I don't deserve a treasure like you.
There really are no words,
To show my gratitude.

So I tip my hat to the keeper of the stars.
He sure knew what he was doing,
When he joined these two hearts.

I hold everything,
When I hold you in my arms.
I've got all I'll ever need,
Thanks to the keeper of the stars.

It was no accident me finding you.
Someone had a hand in it,
Long before we ever knew.

Suzanne takes you down to
her place near the river 
You can hear the boats go by 
You can spend the night beside her 
And you know that she's half crazy 
But that's why you want to be there 
And she feeds you tea and oranges 
That come all the way from China 
And just when you mean to tell her 
That you have no love to give her 
She gets you on her wavelength 
And lets the river answer 
That you've always been her lover 
And you want to travel with her 
And you want to travel blind 
And you know that she will trust you 
For you've touched her perfect body
with your mind. 

And Jesus was a sailor 
When He walked upon the water 
And He spent a long time watching
From His lonely wooden tower 
And when He knew for certain 
Only drowning men could see Him 
He said "All men will be sailors then
Until the sea shall free them" 
But He Himself was broken 
Long before the sky would open 
Forsaken, almost human 
He sank beneath your wisdom like a stone 
And you want to travel with Him 
And you want to travel blind
And you think maybe you'll trust Him
For He's touched your perfect body
with His mind.

Now Suzanne takes your hand
And she leads you to the river 
She is wearing rags and feathers 
From Salvation Army counters 
And the sun pours down like honey 
On our lady of the harbour 
And she shows you where to look 
Among the garbage and the flowers
There are heroes in the seaweed 
There are children in the morning 
They are leaning out for love 
And they will lean that way forever
While Suzanne holds the mirror
And you want to travel with her
And you want to travel blind
And you know that you can trust her 
For she's touched your perfect body
with her mind. 

Things are too simple, things are too hard
Nobody's happy with the way things are
Looking for the quick fix, the short term loan
Got to rent 'cause you might not be here long enough to own
The way I see it the trouble with the world these days
It's getting way to easy just to drive away

With you and me baby, it's up and down
We're moving the earth or we're on shaky ground
We talk about forever when it's all going smooth
 Or moving out tomorrow if things don't improve
Well the way I see it, the trouble with love these days
It's getting way to easy just to drive away

And you can drive away
If you've got half a mind to and half a tank you can drive away
First sign of trouble, first little thing goes wrong
You can climb in your car and drive 'til you're gone

Whatever we've got it's worth the risk
To read a little promise into every kiss
You pay for the music, but you do get to dance
When you love somebody it's not that big a chance
The way I see it we've got every reason to stay
And every  reason to go together if we drive away

And we can drive away
If we need to start again, that's OK 
We can drive away
Till we find that place where we can live on faith
That we'll never again have to drive away

It's amazing how you can 
speak right to my heart
Without saying a word 
you can light up the dark
Try as I may 
I could never explain
what I hear 
when you don't say a thing

The smile on your face 
lets me know that you need me
There's a truth in your eyes 
sayin' you'll never leave me

The touch of your hand 
says you'll catch me
if ever I fall
You say it best 
when you say nothing at all

All day long I can hear 
people talking out loud
But when you hold me near 
you drown out the crowd

Old Mr. Webster could never define
What's being said between 
your heart and mine

The first time ever I saw your face
I thought the sun rose in your eyes
And the moon and the stars were the gifts you gave
To the night and the empty skies, my love
To the night and the empty skies

The first time ever I kissed your mouth
I felt the earth turn in my hand
Like the trembling heart of a captive bird
That was there at my command, my love
 That was there at my command

The first time ever I lay with you
And felt your heart beat close to mine
I thought our joy would fill the earth
And would last 'till the end of time, my love
And would last 'till the end of time

The first time ever I saw your face
I thought the sun rose in your eyes
And the moon and the stars were the gifts you gave
To the night and the empty skies my love
To the night and the empty skies 

We sit alone in the darkest corner
Waitress comes and takes our order
And she looks at us so suspiciously
It's plain to see that we're lovers
Tryin' to be alone with each other
It's so hard for us to break free
She whispers softly I love you
This isn't your average rendezvous

'Cause I'm in love with a married woman
I don't care who knows it
I'm in love with a married woman
On her left hand there's a wedding band
That she wears faithfully
And I thank God she's married to me

No cheap hotel where we'll check-in
No other lives we'll be wrecking
With alibis to hide a cheater's kiss
'Cause if there's lipstick on my collar
You can bet your bottom dollar
It's the color she wears on nights like this
Every Friday here at five
I try to keep the fire alive

'Cause I'm in love with a married woman
I don't care who knows it
I'm in love with a married woman
On her left hand there's a wedding band
That she wears faithfully
And I thank God she's married to me

Do you wanna be a poet and write
Do you wanna be an actor up in lights
Do you wanna be a soldier and fight for love
Do you wanna travel the world
Do you wanna be a diver for pearls
Or climb a mountain and touch the clouds above

Be anyone you want to be
Bring to life your fantasies
But I want something in return
I want you to burn
Burn for me
Like a candle in my night
Burn

Are you gonna be a gambler and deal
Are you gonna be a doctor and heal
Or go to heaven and tough God’s face
Are you gonna be a dreamer who sleeps
Are you gonna be a sinner who weeps
Or an angel under grace?

I’ll lay down on your bed of coals
Offer up my heart and soul
But in return
I want you to burn
Burn for me baby
Like a candle in my night

Laugh for me, cry for me
Pray for me, fly for me
Live for me, 
Die for us

I want you to burn
Burn for me baby
Like a candle in my night
Burn
 

Two young people without a thing
Say some vows and spread their wings
Settle down with just what they need
Living on love

She doesn't care about what's in style
She just likes the way he smiles
It takes more than marble and tile
Living on love

Living on love, buying on time
Without somebody nothing's worth a dime
Just like an old fashioned story book rhyme
Living on love
It sounds simple, that's what you're thinking
But love can walk through fire without blinking
It doesn't take much when you get enough
Living on love

Two old people without a thing
Children gone but still they sing
Side by side in that front porch swing
Living on love
He can't see anymore
And she can barely sweep the floor
Hand in hand they'll walk through that door
Living on love

Living on love, buying on time
Without somebody nothing's worth a dime
Just like an old fashioned story book rhyme
Living on love
It sounds simple, that's what you're thinking
But love can walk through fire without blinking
It doesn't take much when you get enough
Living on love
No it doesn't take much when you get enough
Living on love

There ain't no melody
And I can't find a harmony
If there were a way to say it
You know I would have played it

Well, I'm a man of few words
Trying to find a rhyme
And finally it occurred to me
That I'm wasting my time
There ain't no rhyme or reason
Ain't no time or season
Ain't no way around it
I know I would have found it

There ain't no song in the whole wide world
Could hardly sing without you
There ain't no song in the whole wide world
To tell you the way that I feel

Painters use their eyes
To show us what they see
But when that canvas dries
We all see it differently

There ain't no black or white
There ain't no day or night
There ain't no way around it
You know I would have found it

No, No, No, I might as well pack it on up
Not even this song's gonna tell you the way that I feel

Good morning beautiful
How was your night
Mine was wonderful
With you by my side
And when I open my eyes
And see your sweet face
It's a good morning beautiful day

I didn't see the light
I didn't know day from night
I had no reason to care
But since you came along
I can face the dawn
Cause I know you'll be there

I'll never worry
If it's raining outside
Cause in here with you
The sun always shines

Good morning beautiful
How was your night
Mine was wonderful
With you by my side
And when I open my eyes
And see your sweet face
It's a good morning beautiful day
A good morning beautiful day
 

I got a funny feeling 
The moment that your lips touched mine
Something shot right through me 
My heart skipped a beat in time 
There's a different feel about you tonight 
It's got me thinking lots of crazy things 
I even think I saw a flash of light 
It felt like electricity 

You shouldn't kiss me like this 
Unless you mean it like that
‘Cause I'll just close my eyes 
And I won't know where I'm at 
We'll get lost on this dance floor 
Spinning around 
And around, and around, and around 

They're all watching us now 
They think we're fallin' in love 
They'd never believe we're just friends
When you kiss me like this 
I think you mean it like that 
And if you do, baby, kiss me again 

Everybody swears we make the perfect pair 
But dancing is as far as it goes
Babe, you've never moved me 
Quite the way you move me tonight 
I just wanted you to know 
So kiss me again

Got to keep walking to someone I love
This empty heart's in jeopardy
Living without you
It seems I keep falling for someone somewhere
One single hope someone real
Keeps me hanging on

Now I really don't mind that it's been so long
If somewhere in this world you exist
And it really won't seem like it's been so sad
Just as long as I know I've been missed

Time is on my side
'Cause somehow I know you're there
I'm talking about someone like you
I love you in my loneliness
And it keeps me walking on

I've got to keep walking to someone I love
My faith in your reality keeps me hanging on
 

It's that feeling that someone is standing behind me
But I turn around and there's no one there
It's the sensation that someone just whispered
And I still hear your voice 
But you're not really here
Your memory is like a ghost
And my heart is it's host

I can still feel you just as close as skin
Every now and then
All by myself, in a crowded room, or my empty bed
There's a place you've touched with your love 
That no one gets close to
I can still feel you, I can still feel you I can still feel you, 
Oh I can still feel you

You said you'd love me forever
Then you said it's over
And left me without the missing link
I thought I'd forget you
But I guess I forgot to
And lately I've been too confused to think
When I reach for someone new
It's like I'm touching you

I can still feel you just as close as skin
Every now and then
All by myself, in a crowded room, or my empty bed
There's a place you've touched with your love
That no one gets close to
I can still feel you, I can still feel you, I can still feel you, 
Oh I can still feel you

In everything that moves
In everything I do

I can hear her heart beat for one thousand miles
And the heavens open every time she smiles
And when I come to her that's where I belong
Yet I run into her like a river's song

She gives me love, love, love, love, crazy love
She gives me love, love, love, love, crazy love 

She's got a fine sense of humor when I'm feeling low down
And when I come to her when the sun goes down
Take away my trouble, take away my grief
Take away my heartache, in the night like a thief 

Yes I need her in the daytime
Yes I need her in the night
Yes I want to throw my arms around her
Kiss her hug her kiss her hug her tight 

And when I'm returning from so far away
She gives me some sweet lovin' brighten up my day
Yes it makes me righteous, yes it makes me feel whole
Yes it makes me mellow down in to my soul 
 

When you light those candles 
Up there on that mantle, setting the mood 
Well, I just lie there staring 
Silently preparing to love on you 
Well, I can feel the heat from across the room 
Ain’t it wild what a little flame can make you wanna do 

  I melt every time you look at me that way 
It never fails, anytime, any place 
This burn in me is the coolest thing I’ve ever felt 
I melt 

Don’t know how you do it 
I love the way I lose it, every time 
What’s even better 
 Is knowing that forever you’re all mine 
The closer you get, the more my body aches 
One little stare from you is all it takes 

        Every time you look at me that way 
I melt, I melt
