Songs

Journey of the Soul

Duet.

P1

It were a very sad day. It were a mournful day,

A treasure was lost: a woman had passed away,

P2

In brief darkness her soul wandered, lost, alone,

When a warm Light appeared and brightly shone

P1

An angel of Light she had found and so they spoke,

"Are you an angel? Will you bring warmth and hope?"

P2

"Is your spirit troubled, are you lost my child?"

P1

"Yes, for I have parted from family and love mild.

Angel of Light, who knows the way in this world,

Will you carry me away in your arms as foretold?"

P2

The Angel shone bright, her voice cleared still,

She reached a hand and said "come if you will",

P1

Comforted by her chanting and soothing sounds.

They parted from life's sorrows and its bounds.

Sing you to sleep

In this city, in a dark street, late at night,

Lies in the shadows, hidden from the moonlight,

Naked, cold and shivering, a lone man in tears,

Doubting his faith, slowly drowning in his fears.

Come with me, my love, let us show this man Light,

So it nurtures him, gives him strength and might,

So he can work once more for his family to feed.

So he regains his faith, of which he is in need,

Voices are calling for us, love, they need aid,

In this troubled world, nearly our dreams fade,

We are not permitted to mourn our dutiful fate,

Far worse, do we see, live people without faith.

Come with me, my love, let us show them our Light,

So they learn to stand strong and once more fight,

So they may regain their faith, and have them freed,

From this bitterness and find in love a new creed.

After such a day of battle and straning our mind

Two souls are left in need of a moment so kind,

It's a beautiful woman, and the man by her side

They may be tired, but together they look bright.

Come with me, my love, we have fought for the Light,

Let us seek rest. Will you let us share the night?

May my song bring you dreams till you sleep tight.

Will you let me be healed by that endearing sight?

My angel, lost

Your smile meant so much more than I dared admit,

Your words, your counsel, support and stubborn wit,

Was I too late to return what you gave to me?

Was I too late to admit what you meant to me?

Come with me, Stay with me, Lay beside me,

I want to dream away, just once more,

In your arms, comforted like before,

And feel your breath in neck and ear,

To fool my heart, your love is near.

I believed you would stay by my side for long,

But fate had turned and suddenly you were gone,

You were lost I showed my feelings with a token,

And we were both left alone with a love unspoken.

Come with me, Stay with me, Lay beside me,

I want to dream away, just once more,

In your arms, comforted like before,

And feel your breath in neck and ear,

To fool my heart, your love is near.

My vision and mind had darkened, I couldn't breathe

Hoped my grief would bring my heart to its final beat

But you left me only words, telling me to continue

That it'd be alright, but it's not, not without you

Come with me, Stay with me, Lay beside me,

I want to dream away, just once more,

In your arms, comforted like before,

And feel your breath in neck and ear,

To fool my heart, your love is near.

You didn't let me choose my purpose; I was tasked,

I was to conquer my sorrow and doubt, as you asked,

Even in my grief and sorrow, you forced me to peace

Against my heart, perhaps yours, you gave me release

You came to me, Stayed with me, Stood beside me,

You let me dream away, just like before,

Speaking words, of comfort once more.

And we shared our smiles, you were near

You relieved my heart, with love so dear.

Will you hear my song?

Oh my love, my dear, will you hear my song?

You make times right, when they are wrong.

There is so much I'd like to share with you,

My heart, my mind, perhaps my lifetime too.

In help I find reward and faith,

Though it leaves me in a state,

Exhausted and tired, beyond me,

For I work till I'm pale to see.

Driven passion to help and aid,

Time for us is difficult to make,

But at the end of a such long day

It is to your smile I find my way

Oh my love, my dear, will you hear my song?

You make times right, when they are wrong.

There is so much I'd like to share with you,

My heart, my mind, perhaps my lifetime too.

The street, so dark without noise,

Lights up with the hum of my voice.

Profound love fills again my heart,

Renews my spirit after a time hard.

The road home basks in the Light,

My tired feet then find new might,

They bear me as light as a feather,

They know you make me feel better.

Oh my love, my dear, will you hear my song?

You make times right, when they are wrong.

There is so much I'd like to share with you,

My heart, my mind, perhaps my lifetime too.

As a lighthouse guiding me safely,

Shines the light at home greatly,

Leading me to my dearest treasure

A sweet love, grand beyond measure

It radiates so warm and inviting,

I forget the long day of waiting,

I already cross the wooden stock,

And then eagerly on the door knock.

Oh my love, my dear, will you hear my song?

You make times right, when they are wrong.

There is so much I'd like to share with you,

My heart, my mind, perhaps my lifetime too.

The lights of candles come to greet,

Even more dear is your smile I meet,

And two eyes, so profound and deep,

Stayed up for me, instead of sleep.

No matter how my feet feel sour,

This moment stuns me ever more,

I'm carried by this lovely sight:

Your smile that makes things right.

Oh my love, my dear, will you hear my song?

You make times right, when they are wrong.

There is so much I'd like to share with you,

My heart, my mind, perhaps my lifetime too.

Love's Quill

My love has driven the quill to write,

Writing of feelings by the candle light.

My heart sings, free of worry tonight.

For I know I have your love by my side.

Sometimes the future may not seem bright

Do not be troubled, my dear, by foresight,

To me is revealed the strength we'll find,

By sharing our love and our words so kind.

My quill continues this worry free song,

For it knows that together we are strong,

Just know, my dear, that our love is true,

Together we will see the hard times through

No matter what my future may have in store

I shall fight my way to you for ever more.

When I think of you I feel again a whole.

Such is the love that rejoices in my soul.

When I finally see again your lovely face,

My heart feels blessed by Light's grace

It burns my passion as if it were on fire,

To be with you in my hearts great desire.

Storm Outside

The storm outside is brooding,

It brings thunder and flooding,

Its winds bring scraping sand,

When nighttime finds the land.

The waters will come in tides,

Launch itself on all our sides,

For you I'll endure every wave,

For you, my dear, I'll be brave

For you I'll weather the storm,

My arms around you like a dorm,

Tonight you will know no harm,

I'll hold you till all is calm.

After the tide, the water's gone,

That's when the evil shadows come,

To feed on what ever then remains,

Or spread evil with their stains

Around and round they will creep

Don't let it trouble your sleep.

By you side, my dear, I'll stay

I'll ward you till they go away.

For you I'll weather the storm,

My arms around you like a dorm,

Tonight you will know no harm,

I'll hold you till all is calm.

But after every time of fright,

A new day is born, a day bright,

The final drop has fallen down,

Light will shine and bring dawn

When the shadows fled in a hiss

I'll wake you with a gentle kiss,

Reveal that it's a beautiful day

By you side, my dear, I'll stay

For you I'll weather the storm,

My arms around you like a dorm,

Tonight you will know no harm,

I'll hold you till all is calm.

When I hold you

You seek me out, I'm to firmly hold you,

You say you love me and I love you too

In this time of confusion we find peace,

A brief refuge from all but love's tease.

Burying in my shoulder your face so fair.

I then lay my hand on your golden hair,

Lost in your warmth and compelling scent

An enchantment on my mind so benevolent

Enchanted by you, my heart is borne away

I hold you firm, wishing we could stay,

Living this moment, having it last longer,

Sensing this enchantment grow stronger,

Creating a world of love without wrong,

A world that knows only love and song,

Eternal love is what the words foretell,

Maybe I did not understand them so well,

I find my eternity when you hold me tight,

Even should all be in unfortunate plight

My heart fills with new hope and strength,

For it says love will find peace at length.

The order of the day

Though the sun may still slumber, and not yet rise.

For me, day began as I watched you open your eyes.

The prelude of todays dawn lies in your eyes blue.

Such is the order of the day, when I love you.

So we begin our arduous tasks, working side by side,

While we remain together, you make any burden light.

We loose track of our time, till the sun is through.

Such is the order of the day, when I love you.

Our bodies grow tired, but our hearts beat together.

I tell you poems or sing of love that lasts forever.

You don't say a word but your eyes are speaking too.

Such is the order of the day, when I love you.

Before we finally set out to find our bed and sleep,

We whisper of our hopes and under the covers creep.

Sealing our words with a kiss of love pure and true.

Such is the order of the day, when I love you.

The sun has long set, the skies have turned black.

But the day won't end while your eyes stare back.

Then sleep takes us, but the dream does continue.

Such is the order of the day, when I love you.

Poor child at war

She was so young in her looks... her heart younger still.

She lacked patience for books... had too energetic a will.

Everything was a game to her... No mountain was too high,

So She followed us to this war... Suddenly her end was nigh.

Poor child, looking no older than sixteen,

This war was not meant for you to be seen.

You should not have come along, not here.

Now we have to fight for your life so dear.

Though a fight broke her nose... War kept a luring appeal.

So for another battle she rose... Believing all could heal.

Had she known this was her fate... And chosen not to fight

It wouldn't have been too late... She'd still play this night.

Poor child, looking no older than sixteen,

This war was not meant for you to be seen.

You should not have come along, not here.

Now we have to fight for your life so dear.

The War hungering for new blood... had death grip her hard,

And in its life devouring plot... sent a bullet to her heart

Looking pale like moon and star... And eyes that didn't see.

So she was coughed up by the war... So she was brought to me.

Poor child, looking no older than sixteen,

This war was not meant for you to be seen.

You should not have come along, not here.

Now we have to fight for your life so dear.

Bless, she was saved by Light... Her body made able to heal,

But war proved her its might... Suddenly its horror was real.

She didn't return as she came... Now she would know better

But she never smiled the same... A scar on her heart forever.

Poor child, looking no older than sixteen,

This war was not meant for you to be seen.

You should not have come along, not here.

You have lost your smile and will to cheer.

Recover, my love

We showed faith, in love and peace,

Why are we challenged, by battle fierce?

We sought to serve the Light in peace,

But these days, strife seems to increase

Duty has called us, so far, far away,

From our homes, where we like to stay.

To a field of battle and hurt we stare,

At a cost for us, we can never bear.

Why did fate choose love for us two

Only to strike with fear of losing you?

My beautiful love, my angels' face

I pray we never have to part our ways

So please my love, let your head rest,

May my work make your recovery blessed,

Help your heart and mind grow strong,

Let me live by your side, where I belong.

Holding your hand, future seems bright,

Freed of worries, guided by the Light,

Where we'll walk together, side by side

And all we'll have is our love in sight.

So I dream of being forever with you,

Of a home perhaps, our dream come true

So I dream, and for your recovery wait

So I pray we'll never know another fate.
