1 Let Love In

Goes with out saying that I know my love for you is that I show

You rather then tell you it’s true actions speak louder yes they do

But, if I sing the words in song will it remind you all night long how much my love for you is real you know exactly how I feel..

You give your love to me

And, I’m so grateful I met you

 

To love is recognizing me in you and you in me let’s see

Hold up the mirror we can view healing from all past issues

I’m learning slow and learning fast to put a smile that’s going to last

It is easier said then done let go the dark here comes the sun

You give your love to me and I’m so grateful I met you

 

Take it from me when

When I say I feel safe know that I’m not afraid to let love in and

And I know it feels great to let love in fear goes away

Every time I love I feel much more awake. Love is so great!

Love should be easy; love shouldn’t be so hard

Love can be healing; just let your guard down and

Let’s put our hands up in the air

Surrender love will take you there

It is my message here to you

Let love in and you’ll feel it too

I’m learning slow and learning fast to put a smile that’s going to last

It is easier said then done. Let go the dark, here comes the sun

2. Mother I

Mother, I thank you for showing me strong

For showing me weak

For showing me how to be

Mother, I thank you for all of your strength

For all of your faith for all of your everything

 

Mother, I thank you for bringing me in to this special place

A place where now I can call home

I thank you for giving me love oh mother I

 

Mother I, mother I

 

Son I thank you for loving me weak

For loving me strong

For loving me when I’m wrong

 

So,n I thank you for bringing me joy

For bringing me peace when I couldn’t find peace at home

Son, I thank you for giving me hope, for giving me tears, but most of all forgiving me

Son, I thank you for all that you were, for all that you are, for all that you are going to be

 

Mother I, mother I

 

Mother, I thank you for being so real, for understanding exactly how I feel

Mother, I thank you for knowing what’s best, for being impressed with all the things that we do

Son, I thank you for opening up when I know I might of not of always been there for you

I thank you for helping me up when I was knocked down for just trying to be me.

 

Mother I, mother I love you

3. If Prayer

Sometimes I think if I had more love from day one

If I’d still be here doubting myself

I know I’ve picked some doozies in my life

It’s like starving to eat and what’s left is the dirt off the ground

Sometimes I wish I’d be more like you even though most times I like being myself

I know it’s the journey that I’m on; it’s all right, it’s ok

If I’m feeling this way

 

If prayer is you really talking to GOD

It seems we do all the talking, the talking

If prayer is you really talking to GOD

Then listen to your gut, 'cause GOD is talking to you

 

It’s time I start listening to myself so no more

Deny or justifying the signs

I know that if it’s bad it won’t last because, this is the song that keeps it where it belongs the past.

Sometimes I get a feeling that burns and many times I brush it off that it is fear

Hindsight is that I see it clearly now that it was my inner voice talking loud and clear.

Sometimes, I forget and slip off of the path

But now, I know better how to stay on

If I can get quiet enough and listen

4. Fall In Love Again

Every time I close my eyes I see your face

Looking down at my heart left with an open space

We used to laugh we used to cry without any fears

And promises we made are now words that seem to fade on through the years

Who says we can’t be together in our hearts

Holding tight that’s the way it should be

'Cause I really want us to fall in love again

Two people with nothing then given something to love

Yes, I really want us to fall in love again

 

No words can show the hearts sorrow one feels inside

I hope time will heal the pain and our love can be again too strong to die

Who says we can’t be together in our hearts; holding tight that’s just the way it should be

 

When We Dance

When we dance and we can’t find the music

Close our eyes and rely on the circle of love

In a trance, from romance, and it feels like our life’s been enhanced

Taking it slow now here we go, diving into a world of new chance

And it’s unknown from never shown what it means to be loving

And being real is so ideal when you find it you don’t let it go

See us there as we stare into the moonlight at time square

With the lights, the noise so loud, it’s just your face that I see in this crowd and what

I feel is so surreal and was so damn worth the wait so let me show just where to go

Back to our room to make love and...

 

We move our hips so we touch our slips slow

Close our eyes and rely on the circle of love

5. My Inspiration

I remember when I was just a boy who was trying to trust

The world around me and who was in it

What I found was so profound the people that were all around were the teachers that helped me on my journey

 

What was a boy to do living with a father who did not know love or how to be a dad

Now that I’m older I can learn to heal can learn to cry while living with myself it aint so bad

You’re my inspiration that keeps me alive

Won’t you try to pass the candle that burns deep inside

 

Let us make the world today a better place for the human race to inspire someone else like you have me

Won’t forget where I came from where I have been what I have learned what keeps me striving to be a better man is

Love, Love I give you love this four letter word from up above it is something the world needs so much more of

Who I am is just a man trying to help trying to plant the seed for someone else to grow it   reach down into your heart begin today begin to start to love one another so someone else can show it

6. Take

Take the moon, take the stars, take away the night

Take the gloom and the doom it will be all right

Take away all the fame it will just be fine

Take a look at my glass, I may need some wine

Take a look at the clock it’s a quarter to nine

I am late gotta run I’ll be back in time

You can take take take what is yours aint mine

Just as long as you don’t take away my sunshine

 

Situation of a boy who is feeling blue

Is now a man who’s got a heart big enough for two

I’m not a preacher just a teacher who has got a few new songs

And it feels so damn good…to play them for you

 

Take the gray, take the dark, take away the white

Take the hate, bring the love in and I just might

Take the mean, take the kind, still I’ll be polite

Take the house, take the car, do you think I’ll fight

Take my name, take my cash, take another bite

Wait a minute Mr. sad take my advice

You can take - take - take; what is yours ain't mine just as long you don’t take my sunshine

Situation of a boy who is feeling blue

Is now a man who’s got a heart big enough for two

I’m not a preacher just a teacher who has got a few new songs

And it feels so damn good - to play them when your down

Bring it on sun!

Take the whole, take the half take the very few

Take the page , take the book and the story too

Take the stretch of the truth, take the untrue

Take the ink underneath, take the tattoo

Take the hide, take the seek hope I find you

I am me, we are we so let’s review

You can take - take - take what is yours ain't mine, just as long as you don’t take away my sunshine.

7. Our Wedding Song

You and I we’ve been through many things that made us stronger and the times we said goodbye, we kept on coming back to what we wanted you and I

And here we are with friends and family gathering to watch us as we cry

With tears of joy that remind us who we are and where we were

Well we share this night together we’re both in this forever so let’s write it on the walls

Carry on, the night is long, and you and I were never wrong to rewrite the version of our wedding song

Take the time, to cherish all the good things in each other while we laugh

And all the stupid silly things we do sometimes to cover up when what we really want is just that special hug or some kind of reminder that the love is truly strong

Well we’re both in this together a feeling that we treasure

So, let’s write it on the walls

Carry on, the night is long, and you and I were never wrong to rewrite the version of our wedding song  

Once upon a time has gone but you and I, yes we belong, together we will rewrite our wedding song

All the good times that we have always make up for the bad

Must have been a good time to forgive

We took a look inside ourselves and now we hear those wedding bells

Dwelling on the more positive

So here we are, we stand in front of one another vowing to be faithful

My one true love the one that I will cherish more each day

Then the day I did before, the one that I will trust and show respect in everyway

We share this night together, we’re both in this forever; a feeling that we’ll treasure

Through the good times and the bad

8. Small Percentile

People who don’t find love may feel a tragedy

They say it is better to love then to never have loved at all

If there is someone out there for everybody then where is the

Person who’s looking cause I might be looking away ..today

 

I’ll love myself while I can’t find jack and the people out there all know it’s a fact

That I’m in the small percentile of people that understand me

 

Look within yourself enough for the reasons so that finding the love outside of yourself is ok

I know what that’s like and I’ve been there despite of the feelings

I’m hoping to receive so now I believe I will stay - eh and

Love myself while I can’t find jack and the people out there all know it’s a fact that I’m in the small percentile

of people that understand me, myself and I don’t know why

Why the people out there continue to lie

I’m in the small percentile of people that understand

Let me show how love can grow

And turn your life into a pot of golden moments

Where you can dance like no body is watching

Make a goal to save your soul from the ones that are no good

So you can, yes you can, feel that Kundalini

Deep inside

 

People know me as somebody who is trying

To help other people while helping myself is ok

Everybody wants to be loved so surrender the feeling

Tall dark and breathing will someone please lead me the way - till then I’ll...

 

9. To Be Today

Whatcha' going to do when fear is in the way

Whatcha' going to do is pray

Love comes in and love is here to stay; seems no better way then living in the right here right now is the way - to be today!

Instead of running away it is because of you I stay

You change the way that I look at myself and the world today

And then we agreed that giving love to each can make our fears we have just go away

I’m giving back to the people; giving back to the love I came from

Let’s make a difference and love the very best that we can

And yet, we must change by changing first ourselves and showing them that we do understand

That love yes, we keep seeking love this insatiable love that we get from ourselves as well as from above

Let’s all keep speaking love; most incredible love

It’s that four letter word that heals the planet

LOVE!

Ladies and gentlemen

I’d like to introduce to you the most sensible romantic and not to mention apologetic LOVE!

Let’s show the world by being something different then typical

it’s something that you and I; yes, we can do very well

Because, when we see that being real is freedom we can touch their lives

And, when they plead for answers we can sit and listen and remind them of the great big love that’s coming their way

Are you tolerant and empathetic?

Are you modest and dependable?

Are you polite and reflective?

Are you loyal and considerate?

Are you forgiving and compassionate?

Are you reciprocating and grateful?

(What you going to do when fear is in the way if love is what you are then what you need is yourself do not forget to love yourself)

10. Got Love

Let’s speak the words to the parents that will preach

To their kids that are freaks just because they’re different

Doesn’t really matter what they say what they see are their children in the mirrors of their own society

Black white doesn’t matter, gay straight, thin or fatter

When love is the answer got no more fears GOT LOVE!

Let’s speak the words to the couple on the streets who have got to be discreet just so they don’t have to be looked at laughed at, anywhere they are starred at

Let’s not be missing that the problem is beneath the skin

Black white doesn’t matter, gay, straight, thin, or fatter

When love is the answer, got no more fear

Got Love!

Rich, poor, what’s it to you tall, short, see right through you

When you live in fear, it brings me to tears so GET LOVE!

Love When you’re living in fear. Get Love!

Take it down now.

Let’s speak the words the words of LOVE.

Let’s speak the words to the President that brings to our country that will sing every mountain high let freedom ring

I cannot wait for the day that we see all the people living together in perfect harmony

Black white doesn’t matter, gay, straight, thin, or fatter

When love is the answer, got no more fear…Got Love!

Rich, poor, what’s it to you tall, short, see right through you

When you live in fear, it brings me to tears so GET LOVE!

 

I want my children to live in a world where hate is so little

11. I Thought You

Loved Me

I thought you loved me I thought you cared

You broke the piece in me I’ve got to repair and I’m lonely feeling lonely

What interaction can you get from the type of person who cannot commit?

Guess they’re lonely feeling lonely too ..dang it, dang it, dang it

 

Take a look around, look what I have found thought you were all right

Love me for a day hoping that you’d stay more then just one night..thats right!

I thought I got it , this time I thought I’d know the difference from what’s good and bad so I’d be first to go but, it was me who was let go first

What is it with this man I thought?

I learned my lesson

I’m caught up in the tidal wave

I think that I can drown

Doesn’t feel good and I want to feel good

Dang it..dang it..dang it

 

Take a look around, look what I have found thought you were all right

Love me for a day hoping that you’d stay more then just one night

Take a look around, look what I have found I thought you were all right

Love was in the air hoping that we’d share more then just one night ..dang it!

I thought you loved me, but dang it!

 

Another reason, another truth, another red flag means I cannot be with you

Yes, it’s lonely, but at least I still have myself.
