GLORIA

Deep down I have always loved you from my heart

Always I see you in my thoughts and in my dreams

Some will say I am going insane for you

But I don't mind being a fool for you

The love and feelings I have for you is mine

And have decided to give it up all for you

Don't worry I know they will be safe with you

Because you are were my heart is

That's where my treasures have always been

Many times I have tried not to think about you

But can’t stop dreaming about your smiling face

I am prepared to stand beside you

In times of pain, hardship and distress

And also be close to you in time of joy

I thank you for the times we spent together

It's a memory that I will never ever trade

You are really worth ten times a lady

Please allow me to take you to my world

And show you how special the love I have for you

I AM INDEBTED

You took all my burden and bear the pains for me
I could not have witness so many tomorrow
You lead my path, always walking ahead of me
I feel your presence as the cloud covers the sky above me
Sometimes you talked to me through the birds
They sing to me each morning when I look out my window
I still don't have a clue why you have been good to me
Not that I am special or born with a silver spoon
I have never had the privilege others did
But you allow the sun to shine so bright on me
I must have been heavenly ordained and not know about it
Maybe its the reason you have been playing the same old tune
I am glad I now understand how to dance to the tune
No wonder I smile when people around me are worried
I don't need self protection, I have got nothing to be afraid off
In my dreams I see your presence in the shadow
The future may be unknown, but I don't beat myself about tomorrow
I know with you it has already been taken care off
I can't start listing my blessings, it can't be contained in a book
I can't start to talk about them, because time will never be enough
I can only imagine myself in a sea of your love that runs dry
Today, I can stand upright and walk in midst a thousand enemies
They can't harm me for there weapons are carnal
For they can not withstand the test of time
If today I work for another 50 years
I still will not be able to pay back a quarter of what you have done for me
No amount of money can pay back what you did for me
I can only go on my kneels, bow down my head
And say thank you Lord for making me who I am today 
You gave me a reason to sing and rejoice this day

YOU MADE MY WORLD BEAUTIFUL

My world has being beautiful since the day I met you

Your kisses gave the night life and made her smile

I was shading away from life with a heart broken

Then you came along and saved me a day the sky was gray

Ever since I have been leaning my love on you

I was lost and lonely, and couldn't find a way back home

The world was upside down and I couldn't face reality

You came out of the blue and took away the pains in my heart

Your hands I wouldn't let go even in my afterlife

For you I wear a smile even in my sleep

You refuge a heart neglected and broken

My heart was lost but your love brought her back

And life once more became beautiful since she got a touch of you

So does I, whom also got fond of you
