TOUCHED BY AN ANGEL






Whenever I think of you, I smile 
Life is so much prettier hearing from you
It’s everlasting joy to be loved by an angel such as you
When I close my eyes, I see you hugging me in my dreams
When I look at the sky, I see you waving back at me
In winter, I sense your warm thoughts caressing my heart
I can never be lonely anymore, not since I met you a fortnight
If tomorrow stays up late, will spend all the time I have today with you
For you are peculiar and blessed with the heart of an angel
For out of this world, can't find someone as special as you
Thank you for been a friend more than what I bargained for
Forever will I cherish the day I meet you
The world’s going to be forever beautiful with just a touch from you

I TRIED




I tried but life's keep getting out of hand
I tried but the burden of the world keeps weighing me down
I tried but everything fought for can't be found
I tried but all my effort's going down the drain every time
I tried but still the sky is getting out of reach
I tried but couldn't find comfort when the spirit is weak

I tried but something keep pulling me down from achieving my dream
I tried but can't find someone to accept me unconditionally
I tried but everything I love is falling apart
I tried but can’t stop the storms in my life
I tried but the pain aren't going away 
I tried to make the world a better place for you and me

I tried to paint the world with love, hope and humility
I tried to make it rain so the blind can see
I tried but everything I worked hard for is falling apart
I tried; I swear I tried everything a man could think off
I tried so hard but the world didn't appreciate me
I tried to leave a smile maybe someday someone will remember me

EVERY THING I DO



Everything I do, I do it for you
My life in the past has been resentful
Since I met you my days been completely beautiful
You cover my heart with your love, that’s unforgettable
No bridges can weigh down my feelings for you
My heart is cover with the smile and love I found in you
You turned my nights into day, that's no lie
Now I can walk through the hands of time
My feelings I can no longer borrow
I know with you the world will be beautiful tomorrow
All my life I have being searching for someone as you
For you have made my brightest dream come true
Everything I do is all because of you
Because I love you more than you think I do
