Wrote this song yesterday...it was going to be totally different, about heart break, but instead I found that I simply wasn't in the mood to write a sad song and so it turned out like this...


In your arms I feel so lost
Lost in loves endless embrace
I need you beside me, no matter the cost
I need to look you in the face
At the look of love so true
Because who am I, with you
Without you I am lost

Lost, in a whirlpool of feeling
Lost, in an understanding of loving
Lost, in a hope for marrying
Lost, in a desire for kissing
Lost in, lost in all of you

Looking in your eyes I feel lost
Lost in everything you are
Because without you I am lost
So never wander far
Because without you I am nothing
No matter what you are saying
Without you I am lost

Lost, in a whirlpool of feeling
Lost, in an understanding of loving
Lost, in a hope for marrying
Lost, in a desire for kissing
Lost in, lost in all of you

Lost, in a whirlpool of feeling
Lost, in an understanding of loving
Lost, in a hope for marrying
Lost, in a desire for kissing
Lost in, lost in all of you

Feeling your touch I am lost
Lost in memories of us together
Where, without you I am lost
I will stop loving you sometime never
We will last always and forever
Because you are my only lover
Without you I am lost

Lost, in a whirlpool of feeling
Lost, in an understanding of loving
Lost, in a hope for marrying
Lost, in a desire for kissing
Lost in, lost in all of you

Feeling what I do
I know that you
Are the only one for me
Can’t you see
That without you
Without you I am lost

Lost, in a whirlpool of feeling
Lost, in an understanding of loving
Lost, in a hope for marrying
Lost, in a desire for kissing
Lost in, lost in all of you

Can’t you see
That without you
Without you I am lost
 
You are my teacher
You are my guide
You are my friend
You are my mother
And this is a song
A song for you

You are always there
And forever fair
A shoulder to cry on
All life long
Best days are spent with you
And the family too
Ever loving, never fading
With a smile, simply loving


You are my teacher
You are my guide
You are my friend
You are my mother
And this is a song
A song for you

Even when we argue
I always know what you do
You do because you love me
This I can see
I will never go far
Because of all you are
Everything leads back here
With you there’s no fear
Simply because


You are my teacher
You are my guide
You are my friend
You are my mother
And this is a song
A song for you

You and I together
Side by side forever
Showing me the way
Each and every day
We are stronger
Now we’ve travelled further
Ever loving, ever protecting
Ever caring, ever hoping
That’s you because

You are my teacher
You are my guide
You are my friend
You are my mother
And this is a song
A song for you

You are the reason
That I’m alive
You brought me up
To  know what’s right
You loved me
No matter what


You are my mother
You are my teacher
You are my guide
You are my friend
You are my mother
And this is a song
A song for you

 
His eyes, his nose, his mouth
His ears, his hands, his body
His laugh, his smile, his touch
I’m on fire, burning inside
He’s taken me, stolen my heart

One sunny afternoon
I was running through
The beautiful blue river
When I saw him there
Watching me like I was him

That was when I felt
The fire light, when I knew
He was the one for me
He smiled, and shivers
Ran down my spine

I couldn’t stop looking
But we never spoke
Then he left
Left me alone
In the beautiful blue river

I went home feeling
Loved and lost
Hope and despair
Wondering how he
Had stolen my heart

My stolen heart
Was taken by a
Beautiful cowboy
One sunny afternoon

The next day
I went to the river
I needed to see him
Once more to say
How he had stolen my heart

But he never came
He never came to me
I was left alone again
Feeling so sad, I wished
For him so badly

I went to the river every day
Hoping to see him once more
But as the weeks past
I never saw him again
And was giving up hope

The fire inside me
Was dying, it was time
For me to move on
It was clear, we were not
Meant to be

My stolen heart
Was taken by a
Beautiful cowboy
One sunny afternoon

It was several months
Later when I next went
To the beautiful blue river
And what I saw
Stolen my breathe away

There was my cowboy
Sitting on the river bank
Waiting and watching
He turned and saw me
My heart leapt

As he came running and
Took me in his arms
And hissed me
That day we spent
Loving each other

My stolen heart
Was taken by
A beautiful cowboy
One sunny afternoon

It was three months
Later that we married
One sunny afternoon
On the banks of the
Beautiful blue river

We honeymooned
In California
And built our house
Less than six miles
From where we first met

Just under a year later
Our first child
A baby girl Carrie
Two more followed
We had a family

As they grew
So did our love
For each other
We never parted
Together always

My stolen heart
Was taken by
A beautiful cowboy
One sunny afternoon

My stolen heart
Was taken by
A beautiful cowboy
One sunny afternoon
 
It takes just a moment
To say hello
But it takes forever
To say goodbye
I never want to say
Goodbye to you

It takes just a moment
But I never took that moment
I never said hello
Now I can’t bring
Myself to say goodbye
To you, even though I should

It takes just a moment
To say hello
But it takes forever
To say goodbye

It takes just a moment
And I wish for the moment
To last forever
I wish I could stay
And be with you always
But its time for me to go

It takes just a moment
To say hello
But it takes forever
To say goodbye

It takes just a moment
Here I am in tears
Welling in my eyes
Knowing what Ive got to say
But this is taking forever
Because I’m saying goodbye

It takes just a moment
To say hello
But it takes forever
To say goodbye

I never want to say
Goodbye to you
 
The bridges I’ve burnt,
They make me, who I am,
They have scared me,
Torn me apart,
But they have shown me, who I really am,
Underneath all this hurt and pain,
I know that they can’t always be rebuilt,
The bridges I’ve burnt,

There have been many bridges through my life
Some have cut me like a knife,
Others have shown me love,
As pure as a white dove,
But all of them have helped make me,
Who I am today,

The bridges I’ve burnt,
They tell the story of my life,
They have cut me up,
Left me for dead,
But they have made,
 Me stronger, and happier today,
I know that I can’t always fix,
The bridges I’ve burnt, 

There have been many bridges through my life
Some have cut me like a knife,
Others have shown me love,
As pure as a white dove,
But all of them have helped make me,
Who I am today,

The bridges I’ve burnt,
If I walked down their paths again,
I could tell you step by step,
The journey I would be taking,
This is because it is the journey,
Of my life, of my past,
And I remember all those I’ve shared it with,
And all those bridges I’ve burnt

There have been many bridges through my life
Some have cut me like a knife,
Others have shown me love,
As pure as a white dove,
But all of them have helped make me,
Who I am today,

There have been many bridges through my life
Some have cut me like a knife,
Others have shown me love,
As pure as a white dove,
But all of them have helped make me,
Who I am today
 
My Nannie Gave Me The Idea For This Song, When We Were Driving Home One Winter Night, She Said "The Last Time We Saw Him, Was When The Snow Was On The Ground". The Moment We Got Home I Ran Up To My Room And Wrote This Song

When the snow was on the ground,
That was when I fell for you,
When the snow was on the ground
I met you, kissed you, loved you,
When the snow was on the ground

When the snow was on the ground,
That was the last time I saw you,
I wonder, where are you now,
When the snow was on the ground,

When the snow was on the ground,
You walked into my life with that smile
Dazzling enough to blind any level headed girl,
You were wild, passionate and so loveable
Every night I dreamt of you are your love,
Love I wished to feel every moment of the day,
When the snow was on the ground

When the snow was on the ground,
That was when I fell for you,
When the snow was on the ground
I met you, kissed you, loved you,
When the snow was on the ground

When the snow was on the ground,
We talked in the firelight
Made love in the moonlight, and I told you
I loved you and you said you loved me too,
You lead me into your whirlwind spider web
That caught my heart so perfectly,
You made me believe what
We had could last but it wasn’t meant to be,
When the snow was on the ground,

When the snow was on the ground,
That was when I fell for you,
When the snow was on the ground
I met you, kissed you, loved you,
When the snow was on the ground

When the snow was on the ground,
You took me in your arms, held me,
Made love to me so many times,
You wrapped me tightly into my heart,
I feel lost without you now,
We had something I thought was so
Special but you left without a word,
When the snow was on the ground,

When the snow was on the ground,
That was when I fell for you,
When the snow was on the ground
I met you, kissed you, loved you,
When the snow was on the ground

When the snow was on the ground,
That was the last time I saw you,
I wonder, where are you now,
When the snow was on the ground,

When the snow was on the ground,
That was when I fell for you,
When the snow was on the ground
I met you, kissed you, loved you,
When the snow was on the ground

 
I Wrote This Song For Sara, Because She Saved My Life. And I Love Her More Than Words Can Ever Explain. She Is My Surrogate Mother x

You broke my walls,
I never thought I could let you in
No matter how much I wanted to,
I was just afraid to trust you
But you proved me wrong every day,
Showed me you wouldn’t ever hurt me,
You stood by my side and
Helped me cope, helped me survive

Why I will never know,
Never know why you choose to help me
Choose to let me close
When I needed someone,
 Yes, I will never know why

You showed me you could be trusted
I never thought I would again
Yet you showed me I could
You let me cry on your shoulder,
Let me unburned my fears on you
And slowly I did start to trust
Because I realized you wanted to help
Help me get my life back
And you broke that wall around my heart

Why I will never know,                                                
Never know why you choose to help me
Choose to let me close
When I needed someone,
Yes, I will never know why

And so I now just want to say this,
Over time you have shown me that
Some things have to be done,
Some things have to be said
So I am going to do and say this,
Without you I wouldn’t be here today,
The person I am today
Living the life I am
Please let me say this,

Why I will never know,
Never know why you choose to help me
Choose to let me close
When I needed someone,
Yes, I will never know why

Yet now I feel I don’t have to know
Why you did what you did
And why you said what you said
But thank you from the bottom of my heart,
And I am truly grateful for all that
You have done for me
You are totally amazing
I’m glad you are who you are.
You changed my life. 
 
Today I came here to ask you something God,
Why me? Why does he love me? I’m nothing special
I’m not pretty or sexy or that talented, I’m no A grade
Student so why me? Please answer me, I need to know.
I think that he loves me but why I don’t know
I can’t see in me what he does so why me?

He could have anyone, he’s smart, funny and drop dead gorgeous
Yet he chooses me. He could have the head cheerleader,
The teachers daughter, anyone so why me?

Today I wish to find out the answer to my question,
I wish to know why me? I am lost, confused and a bit
Worried, what if he is playing me? What if the love he
Is showing me is something he doesn’t really feel? I
Just want to know why he choose me, everyone is jealous but
I can’t see in me what he does so why me?

He could have anyone, he’s smart, funny and drop dead gorgeous
Yet he chooses me. He could have the head cheerleader,
The teachers daughter, anyone so why me?

Today I know I should confront him, but I am just too
Scared, I love him and am afraid of losing him because I
Can’t help but doubt him. Why me? Why did he
Fall for me? I know I should trust him yet it’s
All too good to be real, I’m not anything special
I can’t see in me what he does so why me?

He could have anyone, he’s smart, funny and drop dead gorgeous
Yet he chooses me. He could have the head cheerleader,
The teachers daughter, anyone so why me?

He could have anyone, he’s smart, funny and drop dead gorgeous
Yet he chooses me. He could have the head cheerleader,
The teachers daughter, anyone so why me?

Please God tell me, why me? Why me? I said why me?
 
I need to ask you something,
It’s not to buy me a diamond ring
But something far more important to me
Because there is something I want you to see,
It’s about what I feel for you
I feel something so pure and true
I don’t know how to put it into words
So please, can you, from here onwards
Bare with me as I tell my story,
I’ll try to tell this quickly
But I can’t and won’t promise anything
Let’s start with the day we met, laughing
By the beach, swimming in the sea
And you called me baby

So here we are and
I need to ask this of you
It means a lot to me, because since I
Met you this life has never been the same
For me, and so I need to ask
Please, never let me go
If you did I think I would die
You are my world now, please
Never let me go

The next day we talked till midnight
And made love until we could see daylight
I never realized I would come to love you,
Love you just as much as I now do
Standing here in your doorway
I see that I have to find someway
To show you what I feel inside
I sit down at your bedside
Look into your eyes and
Tell you how much your love means
Love I have never felt before, not even in my teens
Our love is one of a kind, the very best
I am totally obsessed

So here we are and
I need to ask this of you
It means a lot to me, because since I
Met you this life has never been the same
For me, and so I need to ask
Please, never let me go
If you did I think I would die
You are my world now, please
Never let me go

I haven’t known you all that long
But I know I am not wrong
In what I feel for you
So without any adieu
Let’s start our life, together
Say our vows at the altar,
And make love till the morning light
Once more, dance in the moonlight
Because I love you more the anyone
Don’t tell me this is so sudden
I know but please say yes
And call me your princess
I know I’m not meant to do this
But I couldn’t live without your kiss

So here we are and
I need to ask this of you
It means a lot to me, because since I
Met you this life has never been the same
For me, and so I need to ask
Please, never let me go
If you did I think I would die
You are my world now, please
Never let me go

Your touch, your love, I need all of you
I just wish you knew
What I felt the day I saw you standing
There, my dreams came true, loving
You is all I want to do
What I’m saying is true
You are my only love darling
We have an amazing, sparkling
Love like no other in this life
So, one day please make me your wife
It’s doesn’t have to be soon
You don’t have to give me the moon
I just need your promise
And your everlasting kindness

So here we are and
I need to ask this of you
It means a lot to me, because since I
Met you this life has never been the same
For me, and so I need to ask
Please, never let me go
If you did I think I would die
You are my world now, please
Never let me go
 
You help me find my way
Through every day
With a light shinning so bright
It lights up even the darkest night,
Though I didn’t know where I was going,
I had never taken this road before, something
Told me this was right and with you beside me
Telling me to take the next step, and to see
I could do this, and I would survive,
And I would find a way to live
My life again and forget the horror
Of the past, you were my teacher,
You taught me how to live my life again
You showed me how to beat this pain

Before you came
I was so lost,
Alone and scared,
Not knowing where
I was going,
Constantly running
From those I though
Would hurt me
And then one day
I ran into
Your open arms
You walked with me

I always knew if I was sad,
You would be there, and never got mad
At me no matter how horrid I was to you
And you really are so totally true,
To those you care for, you always walked with me
And helped, tried to make me see
What you do, I am so pleased have walked with you,
I now I see what you always knew,
Everyone is special, you taught me to see that,
And even when you were busy you had time for a chat,
You made me smile, made me laugh, made me believe,
And though you didn’t understand, you let me grieve,
You were always there on the good days and the bad ones,
My love and respect for you ever deepens,

Before you came
I was so lost,
Alone and scared,
Not knowing where
I was going,
Constantly running
From those I though
Would hurt me
And then one day
I ran into
Your open arms
You walked with me.
