IF FRIENDS ARE STARS

The cloud in my heart will be filled

With memories and thoughts of someone special as you

I will be the richest man in the universe

My heart will be filled with billions of smiles

For my entire desire and  wish will come true

There will be no more nights in my life

My world will completely be occupied

I will save a wish for someone in need everyday

Men will not starve of love living a life surrounded by hate

I will take my glory above the sun

Till the droughts in man's heart are all gone

I will never have a reason to say goodbye

The beauty of life will not be out of reach

The sea will not be able to cover my joy

For I will be so excited and my days will be forever

I will be living in a world purged with scents of your love

I will be happy the rest of my days wearing so much hugs

WE COULD HAVE BEEN FRIENDS

We could have been friends all the way

But you let my feelings slipped away

Day and night I saved a prayer for you and me

I made wishes to the stars for our friendship to stay for eternity

I was willing to give to you all I've got

But my trust each day you made to rot

I have got joy in my heart to want to share my secrets with you

You seem to want to hurt me overtime, why, I don't have a clue

I notice the night is no longer smiling at me through the cloud

The trust I once had for you are now vogues and raucous

You made me doubt my own emotions

You let me fall when I needed a friend to hold my hands

I thought we were meant to forever be friends

I really hate the situation at hand, it’s so thin

For we could have been best of friends, you and me

TAKE ME ON A RIDE

Take me on a ride; please don’t live me by the side

I want to journey with you all the way through

Through thick and thin, I want to ride with you

It doesn't matter how long the journey takes

I want to tag along irrespective if the road is good and smooth

Or it’s going to be rough treading on a bumpy ride

Watching the suns set far up a mile

We are going to ride together through the desert and storm

The weather isn't going to slow us down

The bridges all through we are going to climb

On the road we journey, with the radio playing our favorite tune

You and I singing along and sipping of a joyful and exciting day

As God's grace leads ahead the way to victory night and day
