Alone on a Rock...

What if you

Could wish me away

What if you

Spoke those words today

I wonder if you'd miss me

When I'm gone

It's come to this, release me

I'll leave before the dawn

But for tonight

I'll stay here with you

Yes, for tonight

I'll lay here with you

But when the sun hits your eyes

Through your window

There'll be nothing you can do

What if you

Could here this song

What if I

Felt like I belong

I might not be leaving so soon

Began the night believing

I loved you in the moonlight

So, for tonight

I'll stay here with you

Yes, for tonight

I'll lay here with you

But when the sun hits your eyes

Through your window

There'll be nothing you can do

I could've treated you better

Better than this

Well, I'm gone, this song's your letter

Can't stay in one place

So, for tonight

I'll stay here with you

Yes, for tonight

I'll lay here with you

But when the sun hits your eyes

Through your window

There'll be nothing you can do

Be Still

Be Still
Listen to the rolling waters all around
Be Still
Can you feel the pebbles between your toes

Be Still
Is there thrill left in your numbed body
Be Still
Let it wash it all away

Be Still
At the presence of silence
Be Still
Left the night fall rest your soul

Be Still

Blissfulness

When the visions around you, Bring tears to your eyesAnd all that surround you, Are secrets and lies. I'll be your strength, I'll give you hope, Keeping your faith when it's gone. The one you should call, Was standing here all along.. And I will takeYou in my arms. And hold you right where you belong Till the day my life is through. This I promise you. This I promise you. I've loved you forever, In lifetimes before And I promise you never... Will you hurt anymore I give you my word I give you my heart (give you my heart). This is a battle we've won And with this vow, Forever has now begun... Just close your eyes (close your eyes). Each loving day (each loving day) I know this feeling won't go away (no..) Till the day my life is through. This I promise you.. This I promise you.. Over and over I fall (over and over I fall) When I hear you call Without you in my life baby, I just wouldn't be living at all...And I will take (I will take you in my arms) You in my arms And hold you right where you belong (right where you belong) Till the day my life is through This I promise you baby. Just close your eyes, Each loving day (each loving day) I know this feeling won't go away (no..) Every word I say is true, This I promise you. Every word I say is true, This I promise you

Ooh, I promise you...
