I Belong

This is not a dream
It's only a beginning
And I'm glad everything started out just fine
Summer days spent talking about
What is on my mind
Inspired conversations
Forever changed my life
Study and pray
Believe these words are true
Encourage everyone
Let the desire work in YOU
Growing more
Each and every day
That little seed of faith
Thus here I am to stay
Cuz I belong
Yeah, I belong
I'll admit it wasn't simple to adjust what I believe
But a new found state of mind
Brings my spirit inner peace
And I've come to the conclusion
Listen closely to hear the truth
That what I've been missing all this time
Is You
I've been missing all of this time
With YOU
And if the stars all burned out and the light started fading away
If the day a night came crashing down
You'd stay there right beside me unafraid
So study and pray
Believe these words are true
Encourage everyone
Let the desire work in YOU
Growing more
Each and every day
That little seed of faith
Thus here I am to stay
Cuz I belong
Yeah, I belong
Yeah, i belong
I belong

Simple

I can figure this out
It's all so simple
If I can face the rain
And the bitter cold
Then I won't need this overcoat
We'll build a fire in the middle of our boat
We'll both sink to the bottom
And only one of us will swim to shore
I've been working late on Fridays
And staying out all night Saturday
And I'm not going to bed early Sunday because I'm burning the candle at both ends
But I'll figure this out
It's all so simple
If I can face the rain
And the bitter cold
Then I won't need this overcoat
I don't know what you want
And I don't even care
Because we've lived this life
But you won't find me anywhere
No you won't find me anywhere
Cuz it's so simple
It's so simple oh oh oh
It's so simple
It's so simple oh oh oh
It's so simple
It's so simple oh oh oh
It's so simple
It's so simple oh oh oh
But I'll figure this out
It's all so simple
If I can face the rain
And the bitter cold
Then I won't need this
No I won't need this overcoat
I'm singing
bap bap bapda bada ba
bap bap bapda bada ba
bap bap bapda bada ba
bap bap bapda bada ba
bap bap bapda bada ba
bap bap bapda bada ba
bap bap bapda bada ba
bap bap bapda bada ba
bap bap bapda bada ba
bap bap bapda bada ba

Meridian Line
05:15
|

|
At the lake tonight where we used to meet
the clouds have part,
the stars brightly shine, radiantly
as the moon travels the Meridian Line.
Your eyes finally meet mine,
And I see shy
Once innocent,
now only tears are filing your eyes.
it’s okay,
if you’re needing,
A warm embrace
to stop the bleeding.
Dry your eyes.
Can’t you see,
That now you’re down.
There’s nowhere else
to go.
oh oh
The clouds blanket over slowly
in the darkness,
But that all barely phases.
(that all barely phahes)
The look you gave me
Before you ran,
Your face it was burning blazes.
Now you are gone,
and all that’s left of you
are footprints in the snow.
I just sit here and wonder
If they’re where I’ve been
Or where I’m going to go.
I do not know
it’s okay,
if you’re needing,
A warm embrace
to stop the bleeding.
Dry your eyes.
Can’t you see,
That now you’re down.
I see now that you’re down.
There’s nowhere else
to go.
There’s nowhere else to go.
But up.
Ahhh, ahhhh.

You're picture perfect
Made of smiles and as wonderful as can be
I could shout "I love you" from the roof tops
It's more special to whisper it to you quietly
Come on get up
Get out and come stay here with me
Soon we'll be together
And we'll never have to leave each other physically
And you know
That I'm always right here
To ease your worries and pain
Fill you with love and dry your tears
Cuz I need to tell you
What's been knocking around inside my head
I try to tell myself the same words
Somehow it comes out the wrong way instead
The breath you've given back to me
Is so sweet it makes me feel alive
I'll nurture what we have
So together we can grow and thrive
And I'll always tell you what I'm thinking of
It's easier to express these words
Cuz I've found my one true love

I don’t know where I’d be without your love
Drifting off somewhere in skies above
I was lost without a map
But you were there to guide me back
Retrace my steps
Through all my empty dreams
My love for you
Is bursting at the various seams
You shine brighter than all the stars
I wish you’d stay just the way you are
I never thought I’d feel this way again
But you’re the one person I can depend on
Taking my time, to do what is right.
You bring me joy, and to my darkness
Light
Retrace my steps
Through all my empty dreams
My love for you
Is bursting at the various seams
Taking my time, to do what is right.
You bring me joy, and to my darkness
Light
I don’t know where I’d be without your love
Drifting off somewhere in skies above
I was lost without a map
But baby, you were there to guide me
To guide me back
To guide me back
To guide me back
To guide me back

Meant to Be
04:21
|

|
I'll be patient and wait for you
The time passes slowly,
Like I knew it would
But no one else
Can hold my hand like you do
And when we're together,
Right now becomes our future
Leave the past behind, no need to look back
On what’s said, and cannot be undone
You've always been standing there,
I don't know why I didn't notice you before
But I see you now, you’re,
Standing at my door
With your arms open wide
And now I see, that you and me,
Are Meant to Be
In the time it took me to write you this song
I could have told you
All the things you were doing wrong
But I love you just the way you are
You don't need to change for me
Just don't move away real far
Don't move away real far
You're sweet to me
You care for me
You're here for me
And I feel the same way for you
And I see you now,
You're standing at my door
With your arms open wide
And now I see, that you and me,
We were meant to be
You were meant to be with me
You're my shining star glowing in the sky
And I'm happy to say that you're all mine
You flicker with such blinding light
So I can see my dreams in your eyes tonight
Tonight
And I see you now,
You're standing at my door
With your arms open wide
And now I see, that you and me,
We are meant to be
You are meant to be with me

A weekend full of fun
Wonderment and awe
I never thought I'd like it here
Never thought I'd love it all
And my mind is spacing
My heart is racing
I can't quiet find the words
Cuz I'm chasing lingering thoughts
Falling from my heart
That I just can't ignore
Because every little laugh
And every little smile
Every sassy comeback
And every forty-second mile
They say home is where the heart is
However far away you are I'm home
However far away you are
I'm home
And yes I've thought this through
Or should I still weigh the pros and cons
Understand the meaning here
Poorly hidden in this song
And maybe when I finally
Share these poems with you
And your eyes, they'll be welling up
Really, please note, I'm feeling it too
Because every little laugh
And every little smile
Every sassy comeback
And every forty-second mile
They say home is where the heart is
However far away you are I'm home
Because every little laugh
And every little smile
Every sassy comeback
And every forty-second mile
They say home is where the heart is
However far away you are I'm home
However far away you are I'm home

When I look up at the stars,
I'm not seeing what they really are
They're only dead reflections burning in the sky
You see what you wanna believe
But listen here this is the reality
Here on the surface
I'm not gonna stand here and lie when I say
I give anything for another day
because it's not what you need to hear
We're not, no, we were never meant to be
Oh, Oh that was years ago
I'm not that person anymore
I'm not knocking down your door
I'm only telling you goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
I'm only telling you goodbye
Remember how I got on your nerves
And didn't give you what you deserved
I'm not "perfect", I'll admit
But who is anyway.
Who is anyway?
Who is, anyway.
And when I look up at the stars,
I'm not seeing what they really are
They're only dead reflections burning in the sky
They’re burning, in the sky
You see me how I used to be
But I've grown up, I know its not easy
To accept, but I have no regrets
Except the time
Except all of the time
I wasted with you
All of the time I wasted with you
All of the time
Cuz when I look up at the stars,
I'm not seeing what they really are
They're only those dead reflections burning in the sky
And you see me how I used to be
But listen here this is the reality
Here on the surface
And oh, this happened years ago
You’re not that person anymore
I’d only knock down your door
To tell you goodbye
I’d only knock down your door
To tell you, to tell you goodbye
I’d only knock down your door
To tell you, to tell you goodbye

I may destroy everything I touch,
If wisdom coated my foolish words,
I would still have what I need,
And I wouldn’t miss you this much.
I’ve been forgiven for what I’ve done wrong
I hope in time I learn to move on.
Not to forget when you were here.
Let me conquer my demons,
And overcome my greatest fear.
So I can be the man
Staring back at me when
I look in the mirror
(It's all been forgotten now)
I'm too persistent for my own good
I can’t; I won’t; I refuse to quit
Or be misunderstood
Listen closely as I tell you this now
Cuz we can't change the past, no way, no how
(it's all been forgotten now)
I won’t give up
I won’t back down
I’ll sing this song
Though I’m unwelcome in your town
We are young
We are free
And full of all
Sorts of possibilities
I’ve been forgiven for what I’ve done wrong
I hope in time I learn to move on.
Not to forget when you were here.
Let me conquer my demons,
And overcome my greatest fear.
So I
can be
The man staring back at me
It's all been forgotten now
I can change someday, someway, somehow
I'll be the man I want to be
I'll be the man who's staring back at me
I’ll stare through my reflection
I see only the imperfection
Just try to look passed these
And that's who I will be.
I'll be the man staring back at me
I'll be the man staring back at me
I'll be the man staring back at me

I wonder what you’re doing right now
And I wish I could see you, but how?
All that’s left are these pictures, with no life,
And in my mind, you’re still over here, for one more night
And everyday that’s go-o-o-ing by
Do you see you’re the apple of my eye?
Right now I’m drifting deep into space
Our memories come back to me,
And suddenly I hear a call
I’ve had to think, and I’ve had to feel so lost
But I’d come back and not hesitate at any cost
You know
Yeah you know
How to show
And not make it obvious
I guess that
Would make me
Oblivious
And everyday that’s go-o-o-ing by
Do you see you’re the apple of my eyes?
We’re not School Kids anymore
We’ve all started to age
Right now, some how, I’ll make it there
I’ll go any place, at any time I’ll go anywhere
Right now, some how, I’ll make it there
I go any place, at any time, I’ll go anywhere
And everyday that’s go-o-o-ing by
Do you see you’re the apple of my eyes?
We’re not School Kids anymore
We’ve all started to age
We’ve all started to age
1, 2 ,3, 4!
