I smell in places she's yet to
let anyone else explore
as a body ages it
helps youth close the door
cultural stereotyping
or natural instinct win out
doing what I'm supposed to do
is just not what I'm about
so I'll let her love me
if that's what she wants to do
whatever anyone else believes
I'll believe her love is true
and if that makes me
an old fool or something worse
don't let it worry you
let it be my curse
and I'll tell you everything in the next verse
she is my blessing
she is my dream
she is everything
and if you don't know what I mean
you've never lived
you've never loved
and I can only
hope you do
before you reach your heaven above
or you missed the point of life
have faith in truth my friend
if you don't love like this in this life
and your god is kind
you'll get to try again
and it doesn't matter how old we are
or if we are women or men
when you find the one who is everything
you know your journey can end
you reach a place where fear of judgment no longer wins
and that, my friends, is where it all begins
so let her love you
if that's what she wants to do
whatever anyone else believes
believe her love is true
and if that makes you
an old fool or something worse
don't let it worry you
let the whole world curse
and understand the truth in the next verse
she is your blessing
she is your dream
she is everything
and if you know what I mean
you've know you've lived
you've know you've loved
and you can only
hope they do
before they reach their heaven above
or they've missed the point of life
have faith in truth my friend
if they don't love like this in this life
and their god is kind
they'll get to try again
to actualize the truth in the next verse
she is the blessing
she is the dream
she is everything
and when you know what it mean
you know you've lived
you know you've loved
and you can know you
have finally
reached your heaven above
right here, right now, in this life
have faith in truth my friend
if you love like this in this life time
you know your god is kind
and you'll get to love again
and again and again
you know your love is kind
and true
and you'll love again and again
you know your love is kind
and true
and you'll love again and again
love again and again
love will never end
if you
believe in love
and love again and again
and love again and again
and love again and again
how many times can a heart be reborn
before it is permanently torn?
how many times can hope re-raise a head
before it is permanently dead?
the dream of love seems distant now
as life rolls along
my heart may have forgotten how
to trust in love's song
a scary thought, fate worse than death
or just the way it goes
how many live this way each breath
is the answer, who knows
or who cares?
is it all as sad as it appears?
are you there?
lost somewhere in a dream on heaven's stairs?
do you remember goodness (please say you can)
do you remember kindness (brotherhood of man)\
do you remember laughing and trusting a friend
was that lost in childhood and why must it end?
how many times can a promise be broken
before a promise means nothing anymore?
how many times can faith in each other
be betrayed before it just closes the door?
on dreams of love we hold so dear
where does it all go wrong?
does the heart forget how to care
and trust in love's song?
how can we stop this living death
before it kills us all?
how do we remember how to hear
when love comes to call?
and who cares?
am I alone as it appears?
are you there?
lost somewhere in the spiritual despair?
religions show their try colors
when they try to tear each other apart
nationalistic endeavors
do more to divide than console the heart
science and social studies
prove only that there is more to know
we have lost faith where it matters
inside is where we need to go
will the hopeful bridge ever return
to this broken hearted melody?
can faith and trust be relearned
and put an end to this tragedy?
are you sitting there in your silence
asking yourself what went wrong?
what will it take to bring you back
to believe in love's song?
how many times can this song be sung
before enough people hear?
how many more leaders must be hung
before we get over our fear?
how many flags must be waved or burned
before we place value back where it belongs
how many plastic faces and glittered places
will distract you from what is wrong?
how long before gold loses it's appeal?
how long before we get back to being real
how long before you remember how it feels
to believe in love's song
if I could hold you
you could feel my heart melting
tears of joy comes with the healing
years of loneliness could end
if you would hold me
you could know my heart's passion
love could come back into fashion
remember your childhood best friend
that is the feeling I know
when I dream about you
the feeling would show
I can't live without you
the answer would blow
in the wind like it was foretold
in your arms my heart
would come in from the cold
if I could hold you
you could feel my hunger for you
know just how much I adore you
you are my fantasy
if you would hold me
you could feel I would die for you
how I would give my life to you
everything I'll ever be
this is the feeling I feel
when I think about you
feeling I want to make real
feeling I can't live without you
the answer would show
in the stars as you shine in my eyes
in your arms my heart
would feel so wise
the magic most people call the heavens
the wonderlust most would call youth
the devotion most people give to gods
the bliss of believing in a truth
the treasure at the end of a rainbow
the will to die for a love so true
the hope we call innocence within a child
I feel all this and more with you
if I could hold you...
when I should be asleep
I dream of you
when I have dates to keep
I run for you
when all the world is on their track
and they tell me I can't go back
I believe every word is true
and still I sing to you
when all the people pray
I pray to you
when all the children play
I play for you
when everything is said and done
I believe we have just begun
and every little thing I do
I still do it for you
there is no end
to a love this true
call me mad
I don't care
what the world may do
there is no end
they don't have a clue
if they think
love stops
they've never loved you
when I should be asleep
I dream of you
when I'm in too deep
I'm in it for you
when all the world calls sweet success
a way to buy their happiness
I believe every word is true
and still I sing to you
when all the people dance
I dance for you
when true lovers romance
I think of you
when everything is tried and through
I believe we are something new
and every little thing I do
I still do it for you
there is no end
to a love this true
call me mad
I don't care
what the world may do
there is no end
they don't have a clue
if they think
love stops
they've never loved you
and in the end there is no end to love in me for you
and in the end there is no end to love that is so true
and in the end there is no end to this dream of you
and in the end there is no end to everything I do
I still do it all for you
all for you
all for you
when I should be asleep
I dream of you
it might be magic
something no words can explain
a comfort and pleasure
a hunger so strong it becomes pain
when not satisfied
you can try to hide
but the look in your eyes
says it can not be denied
it might be magic
something no fingers can touch
a peace and a passion
desire so strong it becomes rage
when taken away
whatever you say
the look in your eyes
says come what may
you will live and die to be near the one
who inspires this fever in you
it might be magic
but all you know
is it is the best you can do
and there is no end when you fall in love
there is no choice left for you
but to devote your life
to share everything
with the one who makes your dreams come true
it might be magic
something that seems yours alone
as if you were incomplete
as if you had never known
it might be magic
something out of the blue
the answer to all of your prayers
someone you want to pray to
you will live and die to be near the one
who inspires this fever in you
it might be magic
but all you know
is it is the best you can do
and there is no end when you fall in love
there is no choice left for you
but to devote your life
to share everything
with the one who makes your dreams come true
and it might be magic
but it becomes everything you do
it might be magic
but it's dreams coming true
it might be magic
for me, it's you
it might be magic
for me, it's you
it might be magic
for me, it's you
and I adore you
I am here for you
I say it again as if you never knew
everything I do is about loving you
but there was a time when I sang this song to the world
and I sing it again because maybe someone can relate
too often love is met with anger and fingers curled
it doesn't have to be that way, it is not to late
this is a song from the time all I did was
sit around and wait
time seems to stand still when I sit lonely
longing for someone to love
everyone knows the feeling but no one knows mine
what I'm dreaming of
and it doesn't matter if everyone was the same
I can not touch what you are feeling inside
and you can not really comprehend mine
so why would you want me to hide
does it make you feel uncomfortable
to see someone so vulnerable
is my hunger to love and be loved
something you don't like?
would you rather I go to church or somewhere else
so you can put your feelings back up on the shelf
let's make a deal, I won't tell you what to do
and you can ignore me as I ignore you
we all have our reasons to live
and mine is to love and be loved
that's all I want from this life
and I hope you find all you dream of
maybe if you do you will understand
all I had to do was hold out my hand
and suddenly someone was standing there
to make all the loneliness disappear
and everything changed because I opened my eyes
I saw through my fears and doubts - they were based on lies
the human weakness that is so revered in this world
is the source of the anger and the fingers curled
love makes you strong
if you want to be strong
but if you don't
you won't
then this next thought crossed my mind
I can leave the world behind
and live exactly as I want to be
for I believe in love and love is free
and that's when my love came to me
and now my love is all I want to see
if that makes me blind then blind I shall be
but I'll leave this song for you or posterity
and I am happy singing these next lines endlessly
and I adore you
and I live for you
life is complete now, I love and I am loved
you know this is all that I ever dreamed of
and I adore you
I am here for you
I say it again as if you never knew
everything I do is about loving you
and I adore you
and I live for you
life is complete now, I love and I am loved
you know this is all that I ever dreamed of
and I adore you
I am here for you
I say it again as if you never knew
everything I do is about loving you
(repeat endlessly)
of course
it had to be
look at the date
look at the time
how many years
can this go on
until I realize
how long
you've been gone
but I still dream
and I still hope
call me a fool
call me a dope
and I get high
on dreams of love
it is not you
I'm dreaming of
but I remember
being with you
and feeling love
so real and true
and nothing since
has been so right
so I'm alone
in bed at night
how many years
can this go on
until I realize
how long
you've been gone
but I still dream
and I still feel
there is one love
so true and real
and I believe
dreams still come true
so here's a song
written for you
of course
it had to be
look at the date
look at the time
how many years?
eternity
for that is what
love means to me
and maybe another time we'll hear the music
and maybe another time we'll write a song
and maybe another time we'll find what we're looking for
has been right here beside us all along
and maybe another time we'll fall in love
and maybe another time we'll share all we're dreaming of
and maybe another time we'll let all our secrets out
and maybe another time is what we're all about
another time, another place, another rhyme across your face
another smiles, another tears, another chance just disappears
another time, another story, another way to give into fear
as if the risk of rejection is worse than the loneliness
of all these wasted years
maybe we'll continue another time
and maybe another time
will appear
and we'll be here
and we'll be here
and we'll be here...
