Lady of my Dreams
Chorus
What is love but a tender feeling
A feeling I wish you felt for me.
I know I have that feeling
And, it’s a feeling for you;
The lady of my Dreams
Repeat chorus.
Chorus
I thought I could go through life
And never think about getting a wife
But now I suddenly know
Down the aisle with you I want to go
But, I’m forced to wonder
Do you really love me too?
Repeat chorus
My True Feelings
Song on my Radio
Chorus
I know my song will never be as good as Whitney’s
But I’m sure my message you’ll understand
And maybe one day, when I begin my own band
You’ll hear my song on your radio!
Repeat Chorus
Chorus
I’ve watched you many times with admiring eyes
So tell me now, without any lies,
Why, Please tell me, why, do you like a guy like me?
Repeat chorus
Heart – thief
Chorus
Heart-thief, why did I meet you now, after I promised myself that for love I’d wait,
But now I’ve suddenly up and realized
I’m far too late,
As you’ve already stolen my heart!
I’ve known many girls, some named, Yvonne, Janice and Elaine
But they think I’m going quite insane,
Because I left them all for you.
I’ve written you a couple of letters, and
meant everything from within my heart
But now its seems you are willing with me
to part
But, no matter with how many girls I’ll go out
with my years
I’ll always prefer (and wish) it was you so
I could draw you near,
Because you’re the one whose stolen my heart!
Repeat chorus
Repeat chorus
Prisoner of Love
Chorus
For a long time now I’ve been trying out this verse
Wondering how I can say I love you
And that I always will, even “for better or worse”
As I’m kind a glad I’m still in your power.
Repeat chorus
I want you!!
Chorus
I’d love to start our friendship again
And this time I’m willing to listen
And even try acting a little sane
So I can keep you,
Cause all this I’ll do for you
As I know I love you Collette
And that’s something on which you can bet!
Repeat chorus
Proving our love
Chorus
Its real pity about what your family said –
They seem to have a funny idea in their heads
Which makes them think I’ve had you laid
But I realize we’ve got it made
Because even with this charge against me
We’ve stayed together see
To prove we really do love each other.
Repeat chorus
Your Love
My Birthday girl
Chorus
Love Triangle
You’re busy running my life: -
A girl I have, but I want another for my wife.
So perhaps with a little help from above
I’ll be able to get the one I really love
And break up this Hosted Love Triangle
Repeat chorus
Letter to Leticia
My Philosoply on Life
Chorus
Heart-breaker; Love Taker
Why did you have to choose me
Choose to make my heart ache
As now I feel lost and drowned in a sea
A sea of pity as my hearts broken.
Repeat chorus
Love Thoughts
Can I be sure?
Incomprehensible Poem
By: A Broken Heart
Repeat chorus
Missing you!
Chorus
Oh these wonderful memories we share
Of so many fun times we had
Times when we were totally bare
Even though we weren’t really “Bad”
Oh memories can’t you stop eating at me
And just please, please leave me be!
Repeat chorus
Freedom Flight
Captives of Freedom
Secrets
I want answers,
Answers to questions not yet asked;
I want truth,
So I know how to lie;
I want knowledge
Knowledge to impress others with;
I want fame,
Yet standing in a cocoon of privacy;
I want things
Yet I never give to anyone,
Yes all this I want, and more
Yet none are what I seek;
So I will always have to keep searching.
