I could love you more
if you would let me
like never before
could you forget me?
even far away
still more every day
and you know
I love you
for love lasts
no matter how much time passes
love lasts
forever
and beyond
I love you
even if you never respond
and I love you more
deep inside you know
it’s you I adore
wherever you go
even far away
you hear this song play
and you know
I love you
for love lasts
no matter what else happens
love lasts
forever
and beyond
I love you
for love goes on and on
and as sure as the stars shine at night
even if we do not see their light
and as sure as the waves ride the tide
even if we never see the other side
and as sure as the flowers bloom in spring
even if the birds and bees don’t know a thing
nature has a way we all must go
even if we pretend we don’t know
we can be sure
with every pore
I love you more
like never before
I love you more
is it madness to be true
to the promise i gave you
is it sickness to be sad
over what we might have had
is there something not quite right
with not wanting someone new
am i doing something wrong
to still feel in love with you
how many days must go by
before it becomes an obsession
how many nights must one cry
before it becomes a life lesson
how many weeks, many months, many years
how many wishes on first stars, how many midnight tears
how many prayers must go unanswered, pleas falling on deaf ears
before it's too long to be wanting you - what is the greater fear
being called a fool or madman -
or believing that love can just/simply disappear
is it fantasy to be
this true to this dream in me
is it harmful to be missing
the feel of your lips kissing
is there something not quite good
or am i just misunderstood
tell me what makes true love true
once i thought we knew...
once we swore we knew...
how many times must a heart beat
before it can let go
how many times must a heart break
before the mind must know
how many weeks, many months, many years
how many wishes upon first stars, how many midnight tears
how many unanswered prayers, pleas falling on deaf ears
before it's too long to be wanting you - what is the greater fear
being called a fool or madman -
or believing that you want me to just/simply... disappear
i'd never want you to know this if it doesn't please you
or if my loving you is something you don't want me to do
this is as close as i'll come to your life unless you say
you want me to share more with you today
want me to be in your life today
right or wrong i dream
to be in your life today
i can stay away if you want me to
and i may be a fool or madman but one thing is clear
but i can't believe (i won't believe) that love can just/simply disappear
love cannot, love does not just/simply disappear
i get sad sometimes
when i think about how much
i miss you
when i realize how long
you've been gone
and even though i carry on
i hang on
somehow
i still hang on
and i hear all the old songs
in the back of my mind
the ones that i called yours
the ones that you called mine
and i feel all the old dreams
the hopes wash out the fears
and i fall in love with you
as if you were here
and i get sad sometimes
i don't want to pretend
wishing for a memory
to become real again
i get sad sometimes
when i am too alone
hanging on to dreams
as if they're all i own
i get sad sometimes
when i think how much
i want you
when i realize how long
you've been gone
and even though i carry on
i hang on
somehow
i still hang on
and i hear all the old songs...
once it was all for you
and you knew
oh you knew
how could you not be sure
everything i did
lead me to your door
every chance i’d get
i would run to you
and in your arms
my love was true
in your arms
my dreams came true
everything i did
the life i lived
it was all for you
now i smile when i heard your name
and though i’ve loved others in this life
nothing since has been the same
you should have been my wife
does that mean i am destined to
fail at love? that can’t be true
i live to love, am i destined to
fail at love when i’m not with you?
once it was all for you…
do i have to face a cold hard truth
have i sabotaged love in my youth
am i too much a perfectionist
that i won’t let go of what i missed
once it was all for you
and you knew
oh you knew
how could you not be sure
everything i did
lead me to your door
every chance i’d get
i would run to you
and in your arms
my love was true
in your arms
my dreams came true
everything i did
the life i lived
it was all for you
does that mean i am destined to
fail at love? that can’t be true
i live to love, it is what i do
my dream is to share love this true
in everything i do,
so it can’t be true
am i destined to
fail at love when i’m not with you?
no no no no, say that’s not so
i want to love again
i need to love again
i want to feel
this love so real
this everything
i want to sing
to someone
you or someone new
it is all for you
and you know
oh you know
how could you not be sure
everything i do
leads me to your door
every chance i get
i run to you
to be in your arms
where my love is true
in your arms
my dreams come true
everything i do
my whole life through
it is all for you
all for you
it is all for you
and you know
oh you know
how could you not be sure
everything i do
leads me to your door
every chance i get
i run to you
to be in your arms
where my love is true
in your arms
my dreams come true
everything i do
my whole life through
it is all for you
all for you
it is today
and yesterday
is a million miles away
ten billion years
a moment in our love
it is today
what can i say
i still feel the same way
a trillion tears
cannot wash away love
it is today
and i can still feel the cold rain stinging my face
right here and now
memory is something that nothing can replace
lost in your eyes
as if we can pretend there is a shadow of doubt
i am still there
lost in your eyes and i will never get out
lost in your eyes
the moment i saw you i knew it was the end
lost in your eyes
i'd do anything for you to be anything for you
if we could always be friends
lost in your eyes
i found the secret that everyone else calls divine
lost in your eyes
is where i find myself every time i close mine
and it is today
the music plays
for true love that always stays
infinite fears
cannot deter this love
it is today
beyond the fray
for what all the people pray
we have right here
a moment in our love
it is today
and i can see see the glow of my eyes in yours
right here and now
memory cannot be contained by walls or doors
lost in your eyes
i found every secret answer to my fantasy
and there i am
lost in your eyes for all eternity
lost in your eyes
the moment i saw you i knew it was the end
lost in your eyes
i'd do anything for you to be anything for you
if we could always be friends
lost in your eyes
i found the secret that everyone else calls divine
lost in your eyes
is where i find myself every time i close mine
lost in your eyes
the only place i know i am free
lost in your eyes
the only place i ever found me
the first of december
comes blowing 'round again
the winter chill and freezing rain
this night may never end
what can i say, there's nothing to do
some things we can not control
the memory of your eyes
is still the door to my soul
the first of december
takes me back to a time
when love was all around me
and everything could rhyme
and time moves along, and everything changes
but some thing always feel the same
like the memory that warms my heart
every time i hear your name
it's not that i wish you were here
if that would mean leaving your life
i hope you know comfort with your family
and if you are somebody's wife
my wishes remain for your happiness
let there be that glow still in your eyes
for all the world lit up every time you smiled
like an expected unexpected surprise
the first of december
is your day my friend
the song plays and memory
brings me back again
what can i say, what can we do
some thing we don't want to control
the memory of your smile
is still the door to my soul
and while i loved others, for my love is strong
it still fills my heart with joy to know
the strings of my heart can still play the same song
love is forever, it will always blow
like a thread woven through time, through everything
through all of us and all good we can do
the first of december reminds me of this
and how it all started with you
the first of december
is for memories
for all that has ever been
makes today all it can be
and my soul rests easy
for here it can belong
in love that lasts forever
in love that makes us strong
and together we make the world a better place
reminding everyone love never ends
our families can embrace the truth we know
that love is true and we can all be friends
and those who are afraid to dream
and those who are afraid to love
and those who are afraid to believe
love cannot be wrong
may they find their first of december
may they find where they belong
in love that lasts forever
in love that makes us strong
the first of december
has another song
i may never have been as happy
as when i was lost in the game
working extra hours and going to school
there was no time for any pain
there was no time for the sorrow
that comes from thinking of what's wrong
that comes from thinking of what's missing
that comes from wondering where you belong
but that takes time to think about life
maybe it's better to be so busy living
that you don't have time to think about life
that is when memory is most forgiving
was i influenced by the spector
of the goal everyone calls success
was i overwhelmed by the pressure
of not making life a big mess
was i taken in by responsibility
is that what growing up is about
under the influence of the influenced
the ones who seem to be without a doubt
I may never have been as happy
as when i was so ignorant
that i forgot what i was doing
and just did it, emanuel kant
when i came to believe in can't
can't rock the boat
can't be free
can't follow dreams
can't be me
can't stop running
can't leave the race
can't waste time on
dreams
i must have replaced
dreams
with a smiley face
was i influenced by the spector
of the goal everyone calls success
was i overwhelmed by the pressure
of not making life a big mess
was i taken in by responsibility
is that what growing up is about
under the influence of the influenced
the ones who seem to be without a doubt
and even if it's just a mask
the pretense is success
and maybe that's the true secret
to peace and happiness
I may never have been so happy
as when i was lost in the game
(fade out)
