I BELIEVE IN DREAMS



I believe in dreams
That true love can never end
But sometimes I am afraid
If I am good enough to have

The twilight of your smile
I can not take off my eyes
Hope I can give you true happiness
A heart that will love you for nothing less

Close your eyes and look into your heart
Hold my hands, let me walk you through the stars
I want your world forever to be bright
No miracles, just expressing the way I feel

The feelings I have for you is like raindrops
It is going to fill the cloud in your heart
And wet the tender flowers
Just so your world becomes beautiful

WHEN LIFE IS TOUGH


When life is tough
There is no need to be afraid
When the urge to give up 
Slowly creeps into your mind

Do not be sad and frustrated
As fragile as hope maybe
He can pull you through any challenges
And lift you back on your feet

Look up to the stars pinned to the cloud
Though they look tiny afar off 
You can sense their smile from millions of miles
Faith deep down your heart should never die

There is someone out there
Who goes to bed starving tonight
Because the world is self-absorbed
Every man is for himself, that is all

Life maybe frustrating lately
But if you look closely down your heart
You will find that hope is not that far away
Lean on him and everything will be alright

LIFE AND DEATH


When death come knocking at the door
Lord, do not be lenient on me
Life is not yet confiscated
The rain never stopped pouring
I had choices of good and evil deed
But resentful to the word I need
Callously brisk precious moments away
All for vanity of sinful gain

Mama warned me to be upright
Papa took me through the patted sea
I saw your glory right in front of my eyes
Yet, seek after unrighteousness
There is no harm in a little sin, so I thought
In the church I will pray and be forgiven
Reap harvest on a field I never ridge a seed
Is this not madness of the human mind?
