every night i go out
every night i have fun
sometimes i’m hanging with friends
sometimes i’m a party of one
and every night i come home
to write a little song
about the one i haven’t found
i’ve been looking for so long
and i know she’s out there somewhere
i can feel her in the wind
i can see her in the starlight
she’s been everywhere i’ve been
as i roam around through the night
her scent is in the air
she is everything i hope to find
she is everywhere
but she’s not here
long lost lass
my future’s past
the one i’m waiting for
you carry me
to marry me
to where i want no more
all the lovely ladies
beautiful smiles
the bring me nothing new
i live to find
your heart and mind
my everything is you
(all i want is you)
every day i’m working
to build a better life
i love the things i’m doing
but still don’t have a wife
for no one holds a candle
to the one i know inside
she is everything i hope for
and i will not be denied
cuz i know she’s out there somewhere
i can feel her in the wind
and her eyes reflect the moonlight
she is where my life begins
i’m always exploring new places
for her scent is in the air
i see her in all the smiling faces
she is everywhere
but she’s not here
long lost lass
my future’s past
the one i’m waiting for
you carry me
to marry me
to where i want no more
all the lovely ladies
beautiful smiles
the bring me nothing new
i live to find
your heart and mind
my everything is you
(all i want is you)
i’m forever building bridges to her heart
you can hear me singing softly after dark
it’s a wonderful life,
but there’s some magic
that has yet to start
and all i can do is wait for the girl
to come and play her part
cuz i know she’s out there somewhere
she’s the answer in the wind
blowing stardust into my eyes
she is where my life begins
i’m enjoying everything i do
and this vision is so clear
i see her light come shining through
she’s my xanadu
she’s my shangra-la
(i live for her to appear)
she is everywhere…
but she’s not here
oh she’s not here
long lost lass
my future’s past
the one i’m waiting for
you carry me
to marry me
to where i want no more
all the lovely ladies
beautiful smiles
the bring me nothing new
i live to find
your heart and mind
my everything is you
(all i want is you)
i've got everything
fiend's call me king
but no one has a clue
i live to find
your heart and mind
my everything is you
(all i want is you)
where are you tonight my love
when i am here alone
staring at the stars above
hearing my heart moan
loneliness is an old friend
an ache only you cure
so where are you tonight, my love
and how can i be sure
because i want to share
i stay awake each night
because i want to share
i write
because i want to care
i give up everything
because i want to care
i sing
to keep the energy
to keep it sensual
to keep the dream alive
until the one arrives
and i don't ask for anything
except some one to share
and i do not want anything
except someone to care
because i want to love
i stay awake each night
for all these lonely years
i write
because i want to care
i embrace everyone
because i want to care
i run
to keep the energy
to keep the stamina
to keep the dream alive
until the one arrives
and i don't ask for anything
except some one to share
and i do not want anything
except someone to care
i am the child inside
giving all i can give
i just want to love
i just want to live
i am the child inside
trying to stay true
to the dream of love
i keep here for you
because i want to share
i stay awake each night
because i want to share
i write
because i want to care
this song is incomplete
what are you doing tonight
is someone holding you tight
do you live with a stranger or all alone
has everything turned out alright?
what are you doing tonight
do you long for morning light
is life full of danger or safe at home
has everything turned out alright?
counting the years, there are more than a few
counting the changesd between me and you
but counting the memories we never knew
do we wonder what happens when dreams come true
has everything turned out alright... for you?
the children i would have called my own
the children that i never knew
the life you share is it all that you wanted
is it real, is it right, is it true?
has everything turned out alright... for you?
you can say i'm still waiting
for perfect love's return
for i knew it once
and nothing else burns
as sweet or as bright
as pure or as true
nothing else compares
nothing else will do
unless you never knew
what are you doing tonight
is someone holding you tight
the life you share, is it all that you wanted
is it real, is it right, is it true
has everything turned out alright... for you?
i hope everything's turned out alright... for you.
i made your children my children inside my head
so have you come back to take that illusion away?
i don't want to remember all the mean things we said
i just want to keep my dreams for one more day
once upon a time when i was young
my dreams were strong and flourished in my mind
and even though the best of them may not have come true
remembering them as i do can be kind
and if i embellish on them now and then
who's to say what was or might have been?
i made your heart my heart inside my memories
as beautiful as any dream love could ever know
so if you're here to wake me from my fantasies
no, no no, no, no, i don't want to let this dream go
once upon a time when i was young
my dreams were so beautiful in my mind
even even though the years have challenged them to fail
remembering them as do can be kind
so if i exaggerate them now and then
who's to say what could or might have been?
and what is real?...
anyway?
is it not what we feel
right now, today?
and if i feel love
and wish i could share it with you
is that so wrong
even if it's a dream that will not come true
what if it's still the best i can do?
so please don't tell me what to do inside my head
even if you don't want me part of your life's play
i'll remain devoted to my dream of loving you
and the children will be mine for one more day
i just want to keep my dream for one more day
once upon a time when i was young
my dreams were all i'd ever hoped to find
now i'm in those years where any day could be my last
so let my dreams be the last thought on my mind
and if i don't hear a single word you say
it's just cuz
i just want to keep my dreams for one more day
just leave me with my dreams for one more day
just let me have my dream...
for one more day
i remember a time
when the world came to rhyme
in the words in my mind
the muse was so kind
the pieces all fit
and i was part of it
the singer, the song
listening all along
i remember a time
when i'd sit in one night
and the stories were told
right up to morning light
and as if it was planned
by a masterful hand
the magic of music
lead to wonderland
and i never knew how it happened
i was just as surprised as you
and when people stood up and applauded
i stood up and applauded too
and you laughed and called me a magician
and the tears welled up in my eyes
for i knew i was just the messenger
for a muse that was so much more wise
i remember a time
when the words came to rhyme
in the world in my mind
the muse was so kind
would you melt into my soul
would you give up all control
would you let go of all fear
would you share being here
without restrictions
without inhibitions
without hestitations
without complications
just let the moment embrace us
and experience everything
let no walls come between us
let our heartbeats sing
i remember
how it can feel
when love is real
and everything is shared
i remember
how it can be
when love is free
when everybody cared
i remember
how hope would rise
open our eyes
and let us believe in love
i remember
how it can be here
when we conquer fear
we can rise above
and we don't need to dream of a heaven
for we can make heaven on earth
if we just let go...
if we just let go...
will you just let go...
let go...
would you melt into my soul
would you give up all control
would you let go of all fear
would you share being here
without restrictions
without inhibitions
without hestitations
without complications
just let the moment embrace us
and experience everything
let no walls come between us
let our heartbeats sing
