Look into my eyes - you will see

Look into my eyes - you will see 
What you mean to me 
Search your heart - search your soul 
And when you find me there you'll search no more 
Don't tell me it's not worth tryin' for 
You can't tell me it's not worth dyin' for 
You know it's true 
Everything I do - I do it for you 
Look into your heart - you will find 
There's nothin' there to hide 
Take me as I am - take my life

Where do i begin

Where do i begin 
To tell the story 
Of how greatful love can be 
The sweet love story 
That is older than the sea 
That sings the truth about the love she brings to me 
Where do i start 
With the first hello 
She gave the meaning 
To this empty world of mine 
That never did 
Another love another time 
She came into my life 
And made a living fine 
She fills my heart

Here I stand alone

Here I stand alone
With this weight upon my heart
And it will not go away
In my head I keep on looking back
Right back to the start
Wondering what it was that made you change

Well I tried
But I had to draw the line
And still this question keeps on spinning in my mind

What if I had never let you go
Would you be the man I used to know
If I'd stayed
If you'd tried
If we could only turn back time
But I guess we'll never know

I was five and he was six

I was five and he was six
We rode on horses made of sticks
He wore black and I wore white
He would always win the fight

Bang bang, he shot me down
Bang bang, I hit the ground
Bang bang, that awful sound
Bang bang, my baby shot me down.

Seasons came and changed the time
When I grew up, I called him mine
He would always laugh and say
"Remember when we used to play?

Persuasion is Jane Austen's last

Persuasion is Jane Austen's last completed novel. She began it soon after she had finished Emma, completing it in August, 1816. She died, aged 41, in 1817; Persuasion was published in December of that year (but dated 1818).
Persuasion is connected with Northanger Abbey not only by the fact that the two books were originally bound up in one volume and published together two years later, but also because both stories are set partly in Bath, a fashionable health resort with which Jane Austen was well acquainted, having lived there from 1801 to 1805.
More than seven years prior to the events in the novel, Anne Elliot falls in love with a handsome young naval officer named Frederick Wentworth, who is intelligent and ambitious, but poor. Sir Walter, Anne's father and lord of the family estate of Kellynch, and her older sister Elizabeth are dissatisfied with her choice, maintaining that he is not distinguished enough for their family. Her older friend and mentor, Lady Russell, acting in place of Anne's deceased mother, persuades her to break off the match.
Now, aged 27 and still unmarried, Anne re-encounters her former fiancé when his sister and brother-in-law, the Crofts, take out a lease on Kellynch. Wentworth, now a captain, is wealthy from wartime victories in the Royal Navy and from prize-money for capturing enemy ships. However, he has not forgiven Anne for her rejection of him.
The self-interested machinations of Anne's father, her older sister Elizabeth, Elizabeth's friend Mrs. Clay, and William Elliot (Anne's cousin and her father's heir) constitute important subplots.

Lying in my bed I hear the clock tick,

Lying in my bed I hear the clock tick, 
and think of you 
caught up in circles confusion
is nothing new 
Flashback warm nights
almost left behind 
suitcases of memories, 
time after

sometimes you picture me
I'm walking too far ahead 
you're calling to me, I can't hear 
what you've said
Then you say go slow
I fall behind
the second hand unwinds 

if you're lost you can look and you will find me 
time after time 
if you fall I will catch you I'll be waiting 
time after time 

after my picture fades and darkness has 
turned to gray 
watching through windows you're wondering 
if I'm OK 
secrets stolen from deep inside 
the drum beats out of time

I wanna love you and treat you right;

I wanna love you and treat you right;
I wanna love you every day and every night:
We'll be together with a roof right over our heads;
We'll share the shelter of my single bed;
We'll share the same room, yeah! - for Jah provide the bread.
Is this love - is this love - is this love -
Is this love that I'm feelin'?
Is this love - is this love - is this love -
Is this love that I'm feelin'?
I wanna know - wanna know - wanna know now!
I got to know - got to know - got to know now!
