EVERY THING I DO

Everything I do, I do it all for you

Life for long has been resentful

But since I met you it's been completely graceful

You cover my heart with your love, that’s unforgettable

No bridges can weigh down my feelings for you

My heart is filled with your smile, everyday it’s brand new

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 now know with you the world will be beautiful tomorrow

All my life I have being searching for a heart 

For you have made my brightest dream come true

Everything I do is all for you

Because I love you more than you think I do

THE PAINTING

With a brush in my hand, I painted a picture 

The canvass's washed with love and an eternal smile

Her hair carefully stroke with the passion of a rose

For her beauty was divine and far behold the clouds

Her eyes are as the vision of the stars and moon

Her lips are irresistible and alluring as the softness of the morning dew

Her hands is heavily touched, it ease the weariness of a man's emotion

It possesses the will to dissolves the burdens tormenting the heart

She understands the silence and beauty of the night

On her shoulder one can find peace of mind, strengths and comfort

In her presence forever flows with care and affection

She bears the feelings and touch of God's love for you and me

Her feet graced to resist pains and sorrow but to a man joy it redeem

I stare at the picture of God undefined creation in my life

Framed with a kiss and hug from heaven, a gift beseech to mankind

The portrait in my heart is the perception and reflection of you

WISH I DON'T HAVE A HEART

I wish my heart can stay away from you

Away from the star, the sun and moon

I wish I can turn back the hands of time

When feelings can be trade and not at its prime

I wish never had falling in love with someone so beautiful

In the morning there wouldn't be scent of roses by the window

I wish life is deprived of guilt

Maybe I can stay away without a heart that's ruined

I wish on the phone could tell you undoubtedly how I feel

So you wouldn't have to wait forever to find out if my love for you is real

I wish tomorrow's out of reach and free

And time borrowed away from today's misery

I wish life was a fairy tale, who my heart is cast a spell

My feelings locked and lost in a castle not for sell

I wish the night stays up forever

No day to heal or make a heart already broken better

I wish my lips are seal, so I wouldn't have a reason to lie

I wish the flowers withering in my heart will live and not die
