Hello
03:48
|
|||
|
I say hello how are you today
Can I walk beside you
I think I'm going your way
Is it not through the field
Near the swiftly running stream
Under the large green tree
Where you can think about your dreams
Sit back and relax let inner peace flow through
Forget about this outside world
Just do these things for you
So you can be
For eternity
Doing what you
Want to do
Maybe we can talk about everything or nothing
It really doesn't matter
We don't have to do a thing
Just live a life
That's problem free
Near a stream
Under a tree

Rissey

|

|
This is just my way to say thank you
For all the things you've done for me
I wait in great anticipation
Just so it's with you I can be
I wonder if we need to talk
Silence often says so much more
My love for you grows with each day
Yes it's you that I adore
Everything is alright
Since it's been brought into light
I know you love me too
Because rissey means rissey means rissey means
Rissey means I love you
It's been my future
That's always caught me by surprise
I never knew what to do
But now I know it's very clear
I will wait for only you
So take my hand and hold me tight
And we will walk on sandy beaches
Yes hand-in-hand we'll always be
It's for you my love always reaches
Everything is alright
Since it's been brought into light
I know you love me too
Because rissey means rissey means rissey means
Rissey means I love you

Ours To Keep Forever
03:23
|
|||
|
The moments we share
Are without a care
Ours to keep forever
Through all of time
You will always be mine
We shall be together
When we should part
I know in my heart
The time it comes will be never
And I want to hold you
Never let you go
Though my actions
I want you to know
The way I feel
These things that will show you
I love you
I love you today
More than I can say
I know this without a doubt
This fire we know
Will help this love grow
Nothing will put it out
So I surrender to you
Everything that I do
You're who I can't do without
And I want to hold you
Never let you go
Though my actions
I want you to know
The way I feel
These things that will show you
I love you

Come On In
03:23
|
|||
|
Come on in from out of doors
My heart is open for you
It's been so long and you look so cold
My heart is open for you
You've been out too long
Too lonely for too long
Now my dear be happy
Let this sadness be gone
My outstretched arms are always there
To help you with the pain
And if I can I always will
Shield you from the rain
So please do know
That I do love you
And please do know
Me you'll never lose
Come on in from out of doors
My heart is open for you
It's been so long and you look so cold
My heart is open for you
Come on in from out of doors
My heart is open for you
It's been so long and you look so cold
My heart is open for you
My heart is open for you
My heart is open for you

So Very Much
01:40
|
|||
|
Well I'm leaving soon
Going far away
But I don't want to leave
So I will say
I want you with me
Each and every day
It's you that I love
And you will stay
With me from now
To eternity
I hope that I don't need
To make you see
You mean so much to me
So very much

An Entity
05:27
|
|||
|
Is it life or is it love
That makes me feel this way
I look at you you look at me
There's nothing more to say
Wandering down these empty streets
Full of nameless faces
People walk by fear in their eyes
In all the empty spaces
We all need someone to love
Someone with whom to share
Our thoughts and fears though all the years
Someone for whom to care
Is it life I just don't know
What is this I feel
Is it love I think it is
I know this is real
From time to time I know I find
Myself thinking of you
With you I'll be an entity
Yes something very new

This Day Or Any Other
04:14
|
|||
|
Now the time has come
For us to believe together
Through all of time
We shall never part
We will always be together
Your provocative smiles
Make me want to be with you
When I think of the softness in your voice
The gentle touch of your hand
I won't ever leave you
This day or any other
I want to be near you
And a part of you
This day and any other
I dream of you each night
Until the morning light
I really love you
I know I can say this
When I start my day
So if I am a fool it's only over you
I will spend this day or any other
With no one else but you
I won't ever leave you
This day or any other
I want to be near you
And a part of you
This day and any other
This day and any other
This day and any other

Now I'm Yours
04:24
|
|||
|
How can I tell you
About the way I feel
How can I know for sure
If what I feel is real
What is the reason
For why I feel this way
Why do I listen
To everything you say
There is something I feel
That I've never felt before
I've got somethng to say
I can tell you know I'm yours
In my life
There is nobody else
You're who I'd live and die for
You're someone who I need more and more
And I want to be with you
And I want to say to you
Now I'm yours
I lie awake at night
Thinking only of you
You're all I even live for
I love the things you do
I see when I'm with you
The hours pass away
There are not enough hours
For me in the day
I want to be near you
For all the years to come
And never will I leave you
Til the setting of my sun
In my life
There is nobody else
You're who I'd live and die for
You're someone who I need more and more
And I want to be with you
And I want to say to you
Now I'm yours forever more
Now I'm yours forever more
Now I'm yours forever more
Now I'm yours forever more

Before I Fall Asleep
03:31
|
|||
|
I think about you before I fall asleep
And it seems my dreams are all about you
I greet the morning with a smile on my face
The dawn will sing my song to you
It pains me when I know I can't be with you
I know you can understand what I say
So when I start to dream about you
I need to be with you everyday
So when the night finally comes around
We'll meet on streets lit by the moon
And talk and love as only we can
You know my soul I give to you
It pains me when I know I can't be with you
I know you can understand what I say
So when I start to dream about you
I need to be with you everyday
It pains me when I know I can't be with you
I know you can understand what I say
So when I start to dream about you
I need to be with you everyday

The Title Cut
04:22
|
|||
|
I'm writing this song to fill my time
Don't cost me a thing - not even a dime
I'm just waiting for you to come home to me
It's my title cut for you to see
The title cut from the album of the same name
Not that it's really like this - it's just a short game
The best of the rest from the first of the year
No need to be afraid there's nothing to fear
If you spend your money on songs such as this
You're a sad case honey you've spilled your dish
But I still want to thank you for giving the time
It's people like you that help make it sublime
This song is not supposed to make any sense
It's just filler - I'm not really this dense
So if you wish you can skip this song
Nothing is right but can be no wrong
And even if you want you can also sing along

Thoughts
05:00
|
|||
|
It's here that I sit in dark despair
It scares me to think I just don't care
The good and the bad are in my life
It's these thing I find I take in stife
I've lived in the gloom of the darkness of night
Is it for my life that I give up the fight
I hope to find what's right for me
I hope to find these things I don't see
It's me that I cry for and things I don't see
If I had my way I'd hang from a tree
Live in the gloom of the darkness of night
It is for my life I give up the fight
