unknown

I wanted love so very bad that
I could almost tasted it
And so i gave mine all to you
And hoped you would not wast it
I laid awake the whole night long
And wondered was i wrong
But when you woke and touched my face
I knew that i belonged

Belonging to someone i find is very necessary
The load is lighter on your mind
When someone helps to carry
And even though i'm strong enough
To make it on my own
I would not even care to try
To live my life alone

For if i lived my life alone
With no one to belong to
There'd be no one to pledge my heart
Or sing my song of love to
My melodies would soon dry up
And the words would leave me too
It all would come to pass if i
Could not belong to you

I wanted love so very bad that
I could almost taste it
And when i gave mine all to you
I knew you would not wast it

She's fallen from grace
Somewhere in space
The twilight has come and there is no tomorrow
And night after day
She's driftin' away
And time is run out for our lady of sorrow

Lady don't you cry
This time you'll stay high

Lately when i've seen her
She would smile as if to say
That the worst was over
And there'd soon be brighter days
But i'm wonderin', i'm wonderin'

She goes to the door
And ask just once more
She gives everything she could beg, steal or borrow
And each time is her last
But time moves too fast
And time has run out for our lady of sorrow

Lady don't you frown
This time you won't come down

Just today i watched them as
They carried her away
And i can only hope that she
Has found a brighter day
But i'm wonderin', i'm wonderin'
Had there been someone near to care what then?

save this dance for me

I'll never forget that look in your eyes
The first time i held you and we realized
Something so special was growing inside
Feeling's so deep....not easy to hide
We talked of forever and how we would wait
But the band started playing
Now am i too late...won't you
Save this dance for me and i will lead for you
God has gave me one last chance before my life is through
And in your arms when the music stops is where i want to be
So tell him no and save this dance for me.

No one's been able to hurt me before
And i'll never love like this anymore
Cause there's no one else like you in this world
So much a woman but i call you "girl."
I don't mean to doubt you but still i could lose
And i can't live without you so
Please when you choose...won't you

Save this dance for me and i will lead for you
God has gave me one last chance before my life is through
And in your arms when the music stops is where i want to be
So please be brave and save this dance for me
I won't give up so save this dance for me.

Everyone's thinkin' when he comes home
He'll be takin' you back from me
But nobody knows just how deep our love goes
And he'll never take you from me

Now i know that you never meant to cheat
And i never meant to steal
But you only forget when there's better yet
And i know that's how we both feel

It's a change of heart
Look out for some rain
When you change your heart
One man's loss is another man's gain

Everyone's sayin' when he comes home
He'll loosen my hold on you
But they just don't know that you're free to go
And love's my only hold over you

And i knew the night that your tears were fallin'
What you were goin' through
You knew it'd be hell but you had to tell him
Now it would be me and you

It's a change of heart
Worked out for the best
When you change your heart
Save yourself and forget all the rest

Empty nights - endless days
Sometimes love turns out that way
Yes i know - it went too fast
But you can't keep livin' your life in the past

Today's the first day of the rest of your life
It's up to you to make the best of your life
Open your eyes it's another day

She was there - she was gone
You don't know how you'll get along
I've been there - and i recall
Better that than never to have loved at all

Today's the first day of the rest of your life
You've got to go and make the best of your life
For every night there's another day

Yes you say you've been in love before
You've been around and you know the score
But when the tears fill your eyes
Then sometimes they can blind you

So my friend - you must know
Love will come - and love may go
But when it does don't despair
Every space has someone just meant to be there

Today's the first day of the rest of your life
I know you're gonna make the best of your life
Today's the first day of the rest of your life
Lift up your eyes, it's the rest of your life
