someone to love

without someone to love you
you still can be alright
though the ache of loneliness might come
to haunt you late at night

without someone to love you
the sun’s still gonna shine
though the moon might call out louder
saying someone please be mine

for loving is what life is about
just in case you had any doubt
all the money in the world isn’t worth
one moment of true love here on earth

for loving is what we are made for
no matter how well we ignore
the hunger that’s burning inside
it’ll bite you when it is denied

you can distract yourself
with a world full of things
but nothing but love
can play your heart strings

you can try to pretend
just living’s enough
but all you will get
is an outside that’s tough

without someone to love
you can still sing a song
but you know it is better when
someone sings along

without someone to love
you can be a success
but no matter how much you have
you’ll have less

than someone who loves
someone who loves them back
without someone to love
there’s always one thing you lack

with someone to love
nothing else matters as much
with someone to love
you understand human touch
with someone to love
all the other things are out there
with someone to love
all that matters is what you share

without someone to love
you may never understand
with someone to love
you know what is planned
wherever you land
you’ve got the whole world in your hand

is this a love song?

is this a love song?
is this a dream?
does anyone know what
i mean? . . .

should i dream of kissing you
should i even be missing you
when we are not even friends
is this the way a love song ends?

should i imagine holding you
should i even have told you
is this one of those stupid sins
is this the way true love begins?

in my mind there is not a shadow of a doubt
we belong together
you are what life is about
for my mind there is nothing in heaven above
only changing whether
and this dream of love
just this prayer of love
not to be missed
hopefully kissed
for i exist
only just to love
you
that’s all i want to do
love you
there is nothing more true
love you
it’s all i want to do
love you
all i want to do is be true to this dream of
loving you

now we could meet and talk and find
a different dream is on your mind
and i would have to be alone
well i can make it on my own
but not unless i give this chance
to my dream of our romance
if you want to just turn away
at least i made it clear today

that in my mind there is not a shadow of a doubt
we belong together
you are what life is about
for my mind there is nothing in heaven above
only changing whether
and this dream of love
just this prayer of love
not to be missed
hopefully kissed
for i exist
only just to love
you
that’s all i want to do
love you
there is nothing more true
love you
it’s all i want to do
love you
all i want to do is be true to this dream of
loving you

so should i imagine holding you
should i even have told you
is this one of those stupid sins
is this the way true love begins?

should i dream of kissing you
should i even be missing you
when we are not even friends
is this the way a love song ends?

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

all i want is you

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)

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
