younger years (the secret to charm)

this is the way it was in my younger years
when the night would never end
and i always had a friend

the story of my life was living without fears
and no need to pretend
no falsehoods to defend

with honesty as my guiding light
the day would fade into the night
knowing i meant no harm
was the core of my charm

if history will repeat itself
then i may come down from my shelf
with the same old smile
and the same new style

and if i wanted you
you knew just what to do
for when a heart is true
the message always come through

this is the way it was in my younger years
never had to be alone
and always secure on my own

the secret power is to not empower fears
so there's no need to pretend
and there are no lies to defend

with honesty as your guiding light
relax and be one with the night
knowing you mean no harm
that is the essence of charm

and the same old story will be told
of how true love never grows old
from peter pan to the holy grail
the innocent quests never fail

quixote knew
just what to do
the heart that's true
always shows through

and if i wanted you
you knew just what to do
for when a heart is true
the message always come through

this is the way it was in my younger years
when true love was real
and not afraid to feel

the magic moments were based on no fears
with no need to pretend
and no lies to defend

the story goes
for one who knows
honesty
will set you free
and the secret to charm
is knowing
you mean no harm

the secret to charm
is knowing...
you mean no harm

once

once i was in love
so deeply in love
every cell in my body
called out for your touch
my mind had but one track
that lead me to you
my heart had just one beat
that was love so true

once i was in love
so madly in love
every moment i was living
for the touch of your hand
every breath was a whisper
telling you i love you
life was perfect then
then out of the blue

you were gone
she was gone
love was gone
and blackness swallowed me
such painful agony
i wished i could die
life just fell to the floor
and the only thing keeping me alive
was the hope that someday we mkight share love once more
once more like before
like never before

once more
once more

once i was in love
so purely in love
the best feeling ever
was when we were together

once i was in love
so dearly in love
an eternal bliss
was sealed with a kiss

once
the passion made the whole world shimmer and glow
once
upon a time
once
the magic moment was the best part of life's show
once
upon a time
once
the most euphoric feeling anyone could ever know
once
upon a time
once
you were mine
once
oh... oh

once i was in love
so deeply in love
every cell in my body
called out for your touch
my mind had but one track
that lead me to you
my heart had just one beat
that was love so true

once i was in love
so much in love
a love so true
every dream was you
once
once
once
every dream is you

prone

once upon a time i held a pencil in my hand and scratched my heart on to paper without thinking of consequences now i hold my heart to keep it from falling apart cuz it feels like someone stuck a pencil through it who would do that...

what lessons have we learned
we know the world has turned
and days turn into nights
and then back into days
again and again

what crosses do we bear
because we want to care
in a world so full of fear
we are the fools who dare
prone in the air

intelligent song

i want to write an intelligent song
with words that will get your attention
i want to write an intelligent song
with words that will get into your mind
i want to write an intelligent song
don't let me forget to mention
i want to write an intelligent song
the kind of song you want to find

because i want you
i want to know you
i want you to want to know me

because you thrill me
yes i said thrill me
you are my favorite fantasy

i want to allude to classic literature
because i see romance in your eyes
i want to write something meaningful
that moves your mind as much your thighs
i want to write something that saves the world
from its mediocre suicide
most of all i want to inspire you
to be all you can be
and if that includes being with me
let our stars coincide

because i want you
i want to know you
i want you to want to know me

because you thrill me
yes i said thrill me
you are my favorite fantasy

and while i would like to compare
the love we could share
with the greatest loves of all time

i want to believe even more
that no love came before
that could compare with our rhyme

because i want you
i want to know you
i want you to want to know me
completely
absolutely
and infinitely

because you thrill me
yes i said thrill me
you are my favorite fantasy
indubitably
will you be with me
in reality

because i want you
i want to know you
i want you to want to know me

because you thrill me
yes i said thrill me
literally

oh what can i say
i bow to your sway

i wanted to write an intelligent song
but all i hear is a kind of hush
all over the world
a kind of hush

i wanted to write an intelligent song
but you turn my mind to mush

love is real


life leads here and there and before we know it
things we meant to do were never done
we can feel so much inside and forget to show it
so busy working hard to survive
or working harder to make life fun

people we meet become part of our lives in moments
some pass through and some remain alive inside
sometimes someone matter a lot more than we notice
as we get caught up in life's roller coaster ride
some things hide
but some things cannot be denied

no matter what happens in life
whether it's bliss or strife
no matter where you go or what you do
i still care about you
and even if we fade away
to distant memories of yesterday
what matter is what the heart wants to do
my heart cares about you
so no matter how alone you feel
if you remember love is real
you'll know someone you once knew
still cares about you

so yeah, it has been years and but who is counting
all the things we meant to do we never got done
as time passes in this life and pressures start mounting
so busy working hard to survive
working even harder to make life fun

people we meet become part of our lives in moments
some pass through and some remain alive inside
sometimes someone matter a lot more than we notice
as we get caught up in life's roller coaster ride
some things hide
but some things cannot be denied

no matter what happens in life
whether it's bliss or strife
no matter where you go or what you do
i still care about you
and even if we fade away
to distant memories of yesterday
what matter is what the heart wants to do
my heart cares about you
so no matter how alone you feel
if you remember love is real
you'll know someone you once knew
still cares about you

it might seem to come out of the blue
but i've come to do something i've meant to do
every year
even though
this message might not always get through
even when we are not sharing
i hope you know i'm always carng
as sure as one and one will always equal two
as long as i'm alive i care about you
and today i still say
happy birthday pj
every year
even though
this message might not always get through
happy birthday to you
happy birthday to you
happy birthday dear pj
happy birthday to you

give yourself (again)


give yourself a chance to trust again
and maybe you'll believe in something
maybe you'll believe in someone

give yourself a chance to heal again
and maybe you’ll believe you still can
maybe you will understand

the picture is much bigger than any of us can see
if you believe in any kind of eternity
the invisible man or the science of ecology
the answers are everywhere, you just have to see

give yourself a chance to see again
and maybe you’ll believe in something
maybe you’ll believe in someone

give yourself the chance to live again
and maybe you’ll believe you still can
maybe you will understand

there are no mistakes only opportunities to learn
if you believe there are no ends only chances to begin again
the loneliest people are the ones who let their bridges burn
the truth is always even if you only see it now and then

give yourself a chance to share again
give yourself a chance to care again
give yourself a chance to feel again
and maybe it will all be real again

give yourself a chance to know again
give yourself a chance to grow again
give yourself a chance to flow again
and maybe you will know you know again

how much you can love
even if the whole world seems to be full of hate
how much you can feel
even if the whole world seems to feed on pain
how much you can know
even if the whole world demands ignorance
how much you can be
even if the whole would puts you down
again and again and again

just give yourself a chance…
again and again and again

the lost child's kiss


yes you were the first to make my dreams come true
and no one has touched the innocence of you
the fantasy you became in me enhances my reality
every moment I’m alive you are here with me
every moment you increase all I can be

and we never have to touch again
though it would be sad
if we didn’t for love never ends
that that is what we had

and we never have to kiss again
though it would be wild
if we did to see if that passion
was lost with the lost child

we were the first to touch the deepest part of each other’s heart
we were the first to ignite the passion burning inside
we were the children finding out about the birds and the bees
and the lost child still sings love will not be denied

it may not be acceptable to take it seriously after all this time
it may be considered strange by the normal standards
but how many hearts have been crush by the force of conformity
if there were rules in love it would not be as exciting as it is

so you were the first to make my dreams come true
and no one has touched the innocence of you
the fantasy you became in me enhances my reality
every moment I’m alive you are here with me
every moment you increase all I can be

and the one who can understand
this is the precious magic that is love
and the one who can feel this magic in my hand
will becaome part of everything every heart dreams of

finding the lost child inside the heart
you know yours longs to be cherished again
the deepest part of the human heart
is where the lost child finds a best friend

it may not be acceptable to take love seriously after all these years
grown up maturity may demand more control than this
but how many hearts have been crush by the force of conformity
if there were rules in love it would not be as exciting as it is
so touch me now and share the magic of a kiss
touch me now and share the lost child’s kiss

and (now) you are the first to make my dreams come true
and no one can touch the innocence of you
the fantasy you become in me enhances my reality
every moment I’m alive you are here with me
every moment you increase all I can be

tonight

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

incomplete

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
