FOR OLD TIME SAKE


Baby, I truly do not infer in any way
When you told me you are going away
I must have had your feeling mistreated
I am sorry, wish I could seize such a moment back


Do not you reckon you are making a mistake?
Remember how I held you close doing the wake
I was there for you when the cloud became dark
When the sun came, I made sure you never lacked


I love you still, in my heart, I dream of you
On the sand of time, I drew a picture of me hugging you
Whenever you are in my arms makes the night smile
Can you grant me another opportunity and stay for a while 


My days have been cold, my night's getting colder
Whenever the night is blue, you made up time to come over
I could never be used to you for a million years to come
Thoughts of living without you it as drifting helplessly in the storm


Forget every silly word I must have said
All I crave is to be close by your side
You stole my heart both now and in the future
Living without you suicidal for sure


I have waited many lonesome nights for you
I can't love someone else the way I love you
If you look back, you will find God's will for me, and you
That's why He gave me the heart to love you as no one else does


I do not wish to be the only one looking at the picture
Together we can both fulfill our dreams in the future
Search your heart and mind if you wouldn't find traces of me in you
Tell me when you said goodbye, there is truly nothing you can do


When the night slips away, promise you'll stay for me
You will be the queen and I the king in your dream
Just to be close to you, all we need is a moment together
I promise never to leave your sight forever

SEX




Sex is a slave
A prisoner made to please our emotional desire 
She is comfort to a lonely heart 
Pleasure to the will of man 

Sex don't guarantee true love 
She don't promise your feelings wouldn't be hurt 
She is no alibi to a broken relationship 
But a bond between two heart wholly in love 

Sex sometime drives a man out of his mind 
Makes him betray his conscious and faith 
For a little satisfaction away from home 
A tragedy unconcealed under the sun 

Everyone has the urge to have sex 
But sometimes ignore the consequences 
There is an increase incident of rape of an innocent child 
While a woman's virtue is sold for a penny on the street 

Let no man tell you lies 
Search his heart and look into his eyes 
If between his smile you truly can find love
If you feel secure in the warmth of his arms 

Sex is just a game to some 
They don't care whose life is destroyed 
Orphans paying the price of immorality 
Victims to an ill-fated society

IF LOVE IS BLIND




If love is blind

I couldn't have met you

Do you see the sky?

Tell me if what am feeling isn't true



In my heart I feel your presence burning

You are the reason why there is a morning

Why the grasses are green and beautiful

Why in my life there is a dew



Wish I could steal the world away with you

Don't want to lose sight a second of you

When you smile, I feel it caressing my heart

Some time it gets my emotion running wild



If love is truly blind

I will be better off not to see you sad

I wouldn't be able to stand the tears in your eyes

Or the thought of you been lonely inside



I don't know how to put this in words

When ever I am with you time never flies

Its like making a wish not to wake up from a dream

For that is just the way life seems
