Oh My

Oh my Lord
Lift me up onto your shoulders
For I cannot see the sky anymore

Oh dear Lord
I am searching thru the darkness
For the light under the door
Take me home
Take me home

Time doesn' wait for me
It speeds along so selfishly
And I'm left to believe
There's nothing to hold on to

Oh my Lord
Can there be easy calling
When the angels are a falling all around

Oh dear Lord
In some momentary rapture
Trying hard now just to capture solid ground

Time doesn' wait for me
It speeds along so selfishly
And I'm left to believe
There's nothing to hold on to
So as I follow through with this
Momentary point of view
I will pray that one day
I'll surely breathe the dawn

Oh my Lord
Lift me up onto your shoulders
For I cannot see the sky anymore

Believe Me

I walk alone under these milky skies
Looking for some kind of relief
The constant echo of this emptiness
I need something to believe

I catch your face among these million eyes
You smile back and let it show
Seems so easy seems to effortless
Is there something I should know

It's somewhere sacred in your perfect eyes
Please don' let me go alone

It's this feeling inside
Somewhere I know that we belong
Its in the way you say you want me
Its your words I savor
When I get you on the line
Give me a sign if you believe me
Believe me

You get back easily what you give to me
Confirmation with no ties
Are you and angel from some Eden place
Or the devil in disguise

Take me further in your precious arms
Please don' let me go alone

It's this feeling inside
Somewhere I know that we belong
Its in the way you say you need
Its your words I savor
When I get you on the line
Give me a sign if you believe me
Believe me

It's this feeling inside
Somewhere I know that we belong
Its in the way you say you love
Its your words I savor
When I get you on the line
Give me a sign if you believe me
Believe me

Great Escape

You stand before me silently
Wordless moments burn like fire
All the time you never look at me
Look me in the eye

You gave me reasons like a shabby dress
I would not want I would not buy
You only let me see your very best
But I know its all a lie

And I know she's nothing then because
A passing glance was all it took
You seal your fate among your guilded lies
And you steal just like a crook

I can' believe you
Can' believe
I can' believe you
Can' believe you now
So soon to justify an answer
For a moment make believe
Some how

So again I burn inside
Same old story sweat much fire
Casted shadows of your sweetest lines
On the promise of desire

But I know it's nothing then besides
The invitation's all you need
And some clever satin alibi
Is all you're giving me

I can' believe you
Can' believe
I can' believe you
Can' believe you now
So soon to justify an answer
For a moment make believe
Some how

More Than Love

I know you better than you know yourself
I feel you every time I breathe
You know me much as you have let your self
You find me all to easily

We promised all that we could offer then
So giving everything away
Confusion, something keeps you from my side
And these words fall from your mouth when the rain comes

Where did the time go
When did the end become
Why is it more than love to carry on

Blinded we dance around this hole inside
Drinking we fill up with our fears
In silence I cream in desperation
And you misunderstand my tears

Where did the time go
When did the end become
Why is it more than love to carry on
We're searching for something
Never quite finding why
It takes more than love to carry on

The effort's worth is all we know
And still with love we can' let go

Where did the time go
When did the end become
Why is it more than love to carry on
We're searching for something
Never quite finding why
It takes more than love to carry on
To carry on
We carry on
Alone
Alone

Beautiful One

It's magic
I must be dreaming
But I know I'm wide awake
You've come along to sing me
Your song

You touch me
With your music
The notes you know so well
A feeling that I get
I'm enchanted
In your spell

Sing me your love song
Tell me your story
I want to know just who you are
You make me feel like
I've never felt before
The beautiful one
You are

And when the night comes
Caressed in moonlight
There's heaven in your touch
The moments spent in silent dreams
Till morning brings the sun
To your face
The beautiful one
You are

Some Religion

Wander around
Feeling down town
I took the train to nowhere special
Somewhere inside
On this endless outback ride
Looking for that one strange connection

Voices I hear
In this world that's my own
And all the souls I hold so dearly
Are as lost as I am
And I don' understand
Why it's never written clearly

And if I was to believe
All I was to see
Why can' the answer find me now

I need a line on some religion
I need something more to fill me up inside
I need a line on some religion
Need a reason for this magic carpet ride
I need a line on some religion
I need a hand to turn the key to better life

In this silent parade
In this lifetime escapade
Try and find that special something hold it dearly
So in moments like this
When it all comes down to it
I will grab the hand of fate that's held before me

And if I was to believe
All I was to see
Why can' the answer find me now

Why

You don' call, no reason anymore
There's not much to say
Let the silence speak for itself
Words get in the way

Where did we go wrong
Didn' we have a love
Didn' it feel so strong
Now I've just got to know
As I watch it all fall apart
Why'd you go and break my heart

Was a time you held me so dear
Could takeaway my pain
You always knew the right things to say
And you'd love me again

Where did we go wrong
Didn' we have a love
Didn' it feel so strong
Now I've just got to know
As I watch it all fall apart
Why'd you go and break my heart

Not too clear on what is real
A sleep to numb the pain
But the morning always comes around again

In a word some last good bye
Into the unknown
I can' help these tears that I cry
As I'm watching you go

Where did we go wrong
Didn' we have a love
Didn' it feel so strong
Now I've just got to know
As I watch it all fall apart
Why'd you go and break my heart
Why'd you go and break
Why'd you go and break my heart

Matter Of Time

Talking
You don' hear what I say
Reaching but you turn and walk away
Close the door
Close your heart
And you never know what's heavy on my mind
Deep inside
I see it clear
It's just a matter of time

Hoping somehow for a little sign
something easy just to give love it's due time
Still you close your door
Close your heart
Pretending not to fear what you might find
But deep inside
You see it clear
It's just a matter of time
So take my hand
Take my heart
Let me show you now what's on my mind
Cause deep inside
It's all so clear
It's just a matter of time

I could love you
If you ever let me in
I could show you
Somewhere that you'd never been
Open the door
To your heart
I need to show you now what's on my mind
Deep inside
It's now so clear
It's just a matter of time
So take my hand
Take my love
Let me show you love that you will find
Deep inside
We see it clear
It's just a matter of time

Prayer for St. Symin

I lay down
And rest my weary head
Sleep
Now to dream again

Long is waking hour
And tired is my heart
Time
Do carry me
To morrow

Come carry me away
Come carry me away
Time
I'm ready now
For morrow
