if tomorrow never comes

Friday, December 21st, 2012

Sometimes late at night,
I lie awake and watch her sleeping.
She’s lost in peaceful dreams,
So I turn out the lights and lay there in the dark.
And the thought crosses my mind
If I never wake up in the morning
Would she ever doubt the way I feel
About her in my heart?

If tomorrow never comes
Will she know how much I loved her?
Did I try in every way to show her every day
That she’s my only one?
And if my time on earth were through
And she must face the world without me
Is the love I gave her in the past
Gonna be enough to last
If tomorrow never comes?

‘Cause I’ve lost loved ones in my life
Who never knew how much I loved them
Now I live with the regret
That my true feelings for them never were revealed
So I made a promise to myself
To say each day how much she means to me
And avoid that circumstance
Where there’s no second chance to tell her how I feel

If tomorrow never comes
Will she know how much I loved her?
Did I try in every way to show her every day
That she’s my only one?
And if my time on earth were through
And she must face the world without me
Is the love I gave her in the past
Gonna be enough to last
If tomorrow never comes?

So tell that someone that you love
Just what you’re thinking of
If tomorrow never comes

you move me

Saturday, September 10th, 2011

This is how it seems to me
Life is only therapy,
Real expensive
And no guarantees

So I lie here on the couch
With my heart hanging out
Frozen solid with fear
Like a rock in the ground

Oh, but you move me
You give me courage I didn’t know I had
You move me
Now I can’t go with you and stay where I am
So you move me

This is how love was to me
I could look and not see
Going through the emotions
Not knowin’ what they mean

And it scared me so much
That I just wouldn’t budge, oh no no no
I might have stayed there forever
If not for your touch

Oh but you move me
Out of myself and into the fire
You move me
Now I’m burning with love
And with hope and desire
How you move me

You go whistling in the dark
Making light of it
Making light of it
And I follow with my heart
Laughing all the way

Oh ’cause you move me
You get me dancing and you make me sing
You move me
Now I’m taking delight in every little thing
How you move me
Woah, you move me
Woah, you move me
Woah, you move me
Woah

when there’s no one around

Sunday, June 15th, 2008

This is a song that nobody knows
I couldn’t begin to describe how it goes
But it makes me cry or laugh right out loud
It’s a song that I sing when there’s no one around

This is the man that nobody sees
He wears my old clothes and he looks just like me
Just one of the boys who gets lost in the crowd
He’s the man that I am when there’s no one around

It’s four in the morning
I’m lyin’ in bed
A tape of my failures
Playin’ inside my head
It’s heartache and hard knocks
And things I don’t know
I listen and I wonder
Where will it go?

This is a glimpse of a child that’s within
He’s so immature but he’s still my best friend
If he could learn how to fly, he’d never touch down
He’s the kid that I am when there’s no one around

This is the dance I do every day
I let my feet go and get carried away
I let my soul lead and follow the sound
It’s the dance that I do when there’s no one around

It’s still four in the morning
I’m lyin’ in bed
A tape of my failures
Playin’ inside my head
It’s heartache and hard knocks
And things I don’t know
I listen and I wonder
Where will it go?

This is a song that nobody knows
I still can’t begin to describe how it goes
But it makes me cry or laugh right out loud
It’s a song that I sing when there’s no one around
It’s a song that I sing when there’s no one around
