EVERY NIGHT IN MY DREAMS

 


Every night in my dreams I see and feel you
The feelings for you got all written in my heart
The moon stares at me through my window with a smile
I saw you in the shadow kissing me
Your smile light up a candle in my heart
Only you know the track which leads to my heart
I pray for the night to stay a bit longer
I don't want to give up memories dreamt of you
When I am lying on the bed, you were an angel beside me
On a journey to life, you are my companion all through 
Life wouldn't break me if everything got left behind
As long as I got a heart and got you
I will live the rest of my life loving you

LIFE'S NOT EASY



Life isn't easy
If it was, I wouldn't have to work so hard
I am leaning all my efforts to God
He gives me the grace to wake up each morning
I have got to work so hard 
Make the best out of life and myself
Only you lord can understand
how life has been all this years
You made the sun set in my life
You send down rain to water the droughts in my life
I have been keeping my hopes so high
You have kept me out of harms way
Been a friend when I had no one to turn to
Life has never been fair to mankind
But I always win because I have you

COME WALK WITH ME



Life is so brief; the journey is swift like driving on a high way
Yesterday i was a kid but now i am a grown man
If the future is dark and you cannot see through
There’s a sun so bright that will light our way through
If there is a shadow upon your dreams
A candle can show you the path to fulfill your dreams
If you are on a journey that cuts across a mountain that's high
If you believe in your heart, then you know you can fly
Hold on to the rope of faith and pull yourself up
Miracles happens every day for those who don't give up
There is always room for you if you can believe
It matters when you come across an obstacle
And the means you choose to fight it through
No trouble, challenges or pain can last all tomorrow
Don't let people talk you down that you can't make it
Look inside the person in you and tell him you can achieve it
They don't know you better than you know yourself
If you don't run, you will be limiting yourself
