Discovery
02:26
|

|
At last it's done after years of searching
Years of crying and dying
I found you
Sometimes I felt like giving up
And sometimes I almost did
But the spark never died
And the tears never dried
So here at last we can meet face to face
And no longer must we cry
I found you

Take Me In
04:08
|

|
Well I don't know what tomorrow will bring
I can only hope and pray
For a love to start and that love to grow
It makes it hard when I don't know
Exactly how you feel - is your love for real?
You know I haven't got a clue
Here I am open for your arms
Take me in - please take me in
Cause here I am
I've got so much to give
Take me in - please take me in
Now I can't say what you're feeling for me
I can only hope and pray
Somehow you'll see my feelings for you
I know just what I've got to do
I'll tell you how I feel - give you a love that's real
An offer I know you can't refuse
Here I am open for your arms
Take me in - please take me in
Cause here I am
I've got so much to give
Take me in - please take me in
And all my life I've been waiting for your love
And now I've told you how I feel
So now I'm waiting for an answer to my call
Will you heed my true appeal?
Here I am open for your arms
Take me in - please take me in
Cause here I am
I've got so much to give
Take me in - please take me in

Lady

Lady I'm in love with you
Are you in love with me?
Don't ever leave
I've searched for you a lifetime
Of broken hearts
And schemes of empty dreams
And I can say to you I do love you and care
And when I give to you this love I have to share
Will you be there?
To spend a lifetime's all I ask of you
And to be true
Yes to be true
There's times before I've had a love
And lost and learned to live
It's so hard to give
But I can say to you I do love you and care
And when I give to you this love I have to share
Will you be there?
Lady I'm in love you are you in love with me?

Give Her My Love
03:14
|
|||
|
Give her my love as you walk hand in hand
Tell her I tried to forget
Don't let her know that this feeling remains
From a long time ago
Just give her my love
She was once mine and worked out fine
But something got in our way
She is now yours
So please don't ignore
This one thing I have to say
Give her my love as you walk hand in hand
Tell her I tried to forget
Don't let her know that this feeling remains
From a long time ago
Just give her my love
We had some good times
But we crossed some battle lines
So now I ask you to treat her well
She's got a lot to share and I tell her I still care
I'm glad she hears those wedding bells
Give her my love
It's all I ask you
Give her my love
It's all I can do
Give her my love as you walk hand in hand
Tell her I tried to forget
Don't let her know that this feeling remains
From a long time ago
Just give her my love

Until You
04:41
|
|||
|
Say you love me if only for a day
Tomorrow may be too late and I'll be far away
When I look at you and when I see you do love me
I know I can be sure you will be there for me
And each and every day my thoughts with you will be
When I think of you I know I'll think of too our love
Many times before
I thought I'd found the one
But I was always wrong
Until you - Until you
Now I think you know how much you mean to me
Never will I go - I want for you to see
That when I look at you you'll see the deepest love for you
Many times before
I thought I'd found the one
But I was always wrong
Until you - Until you

Unconditional Love
04:59
|
|||
|
I walk into your room and greet the smile upon your face
I feel a warmth within my heart - it holds for you a special place
And you know I live my life for you
For all the joys you've given me
And I give straight from my heart unconditional love
Your eyes so full of life captivate my soul
So I'm prisoner of your hugs - well I love my life-long role
And you know I live my life for you
For all the joys you've given me
And I give straight from my heart unconditional love
So empty were the days
The days before I knew
And never did I think
I'd feel the way I do
So when the pressures of my life start to get me down
A minute spent with you will turn smiles from the frowns
And you know I'd give my life for you
For all the joys you've given me
And I'd give straight from my heart unconditional love
Yes I'd give straight from my heart unconditional love
And to you I give straight from my heart unconditional love

To Call Our Own
02:36
|
|||
|
Once upon a time I had a love
I knew that I could call my own
But she disappeared and now I know
I'll have to make it all alone
Cause differences and quarrels and
Those things that all new lovers must go through
Tore us both apart until we knew
That we could never start anew
And once again we lose the friend
That we'd thought to call our own
Masks and the pretending as we
Tried to find the love we know was gone
Made it all the harder when we knew
This love affair could not go on
Breaking up is harder when you think
Your lover really cares for you
Because you think you should had tried
A little harder just to make it through
And then you find peace of mind
Is not as easy as it seems
And once again we lose the friend
That we'd thought to call our own

A Question If You Will
03:11
|
|||
|
Answer a question if you will
Answer it as my only friend
How long with this have to go on?
How long before we can reach the end?
It's been far too long
I feel I've been wrong
Can you tell me who I am?
Many's the time I've cried at night
Many's the time I've felt afraid
And times I've just Iied awake in bed
Counting mistakes that I have made
The story is short
The thought I'll abort
I can't tell you who I am
So answer a question if you will
Answer it as my only friend
How long with this have to go on?
How long before we can reach the end?
It's been far too long
I feel I've been wrong
Can you tell me who I am?
Can you tell me who I am?
Cause I can't tell you who I am

Once In Love
04:30
|
|||
|
How can I make you stay?
How can I make you see?
How can I make you love me?
Tell me if there's a way
What became of trust?
How can you lie to me?
I'm down here on my knees
Indignant righteousness
And once in love I always hoped I find
One true love who could love in kind
So now you tell me your love is gone
And you tell me it has to end
But you say we can still be friends
After all we've said and done
But how can I make you stay?
How can I make you see?
How can I make you love me?
Tell me if there's a way
And once in love I always hoped I find
One true love who could love in kind

Robin Bird
04:43

|
Little robin bird what do you know?
You fly into my yard in springtime snow
Do you carry on your wing my lady love
She came into my life one April morn
To soothe the damage done by winter's scorn
And melt the ice within my aching soul
My aching soul
Through May's bright sun and June's warm days
She was the one who showed the ways
How love could grow yet she'd never know
The warmth within my heart
From summer nights into the fall
I'd listen to your lover's call
Until the day you flew from my life
You flew my life
So little robin bird where do you go
When you fly from my yard in autumn snows
And you carry on your wings my lady love
Goodbye lady love

Forever And A Day
04:55
|

|
Lady I've chosen you to share my life
To share my hopes and dreams
I want to make it clear you
That I love you
And lady there was a time before you came
I felt alone
And lady you filled the void within my life
And now you hold my heart near yours
You give me love I thought unreal
You made me feel alive again
And now I'm sure I know
You'll never go
Be here til the end
Lady you share my life
You are my wife and my best friend
And lady I want to say if there's away
To show the love I have for you
I will show you all I care
It's always been there
Waiting for someone like you
Forever and a day
This love will stay
For it has found you
And I love you
Yes I love you
Lady I've chosen you to share my life
To share my hopes and dreams
I want to make it clear you
That I love you
