IF I HAD A WISH






If today God gave me a wish
To spend my life with you forever I will wish
When you smile it lights up a million candles in my heart
That’s as much the love and feelings I have for you 
Time after time I tell you that I love you
I meant it because nothing can change my feelings for you
I want to spend my whole life with you
I promise to always be there for you
I know I could have wished for riches besides you
But I wouldn't have been able to afford you
A thousand diamonds can't match the beauty and qualities in you
You are the reason why my heartbeat ticks faster
Because every second reminds me of you
For I can't stop loving you

I HAVE MADE UP MY MIND





I have made up my mind your love never to depart
To leave all my dreams behind if you are not part of it

I have made up my mind to share my whole world with you 
To love and cherish you and keep wanting you

I have made up my mind to always walk side by side with you
Be there for you when you need someone to hug you

I have made up my mind to leave lusty desire aside
And spend the rest of my life loving you and never leave your side

I have made up my mind to always make you smile
I will buy you the world as long as I can afford to see you smile

I have made up my mind to listen and support you in fulfilling your dreams
Light a candle and watch it burnt out together with you is my dreams

I have made up my mind to give all I have got to make our relationship work
Cry with you and smile with you and be there for you so you never get hurt

I have made up my mind to love no one else but you
For you have made my sky become beautiful

YOU TOOK ME FOR A FOOL





All I did was to love you as you deserved
I introduced you to my home and took you out
I never get angry at you because my love for you can't be out of date
On rainy days I held the umbrella for you
I was ready to go extreme to ensure a smile never extinct in you
Check up on you every second, I became a baby sitter spending all my time with you
When I caught you dating someone else, I forgave you
I tried to be the man for you by being there for you
But it seems I have never been good enough for you

You took my love for granted; you keep playing me for a fool
You told me I was too nice to you and that’s too good to be true
Soon you started having odd excuses, and stopped calling me on the phone
When I came across you, you promised to give me a call at home
For days I barely hear from you, but I didn't care
I still wanted to be with you, but you keep taking me for a fool

I might be blind with love for you, but in my heart I keep seeing you
I let my heart fall in love with you, and you let my feelings fly free
My thoughts of you is still good, but you keep walking away from me
I hope you've found what you are looking for
For I have found someone new
She's like the morning dew
Her love moistened my heart and make me feel brand new
Unlike the days you played me, she makes my world beautiful
She touch my heart with her kiss of roses
She treats me nice and doesn't take me for a fool
