Written in the Stars from Aida


I am here to tell you we can never meet again
Simple really, isn't it, a word or two and then
A lifetime of not knowing where or how or why or when
You think of me or speak of me or wonder what befell
The someone you once loved so long ago so well

Never wonder what I'll feel as living shuffles by
You don't have to ask me and I need not reply
Every moment of my life from now until I die
I will think or dream of you and fail to understand
How a perfect love can be confounded out of hand

Is it written in the stars
Are we paying for some crime
Is that all that we are good for
Just a stretch of mortal time

Is this God's experiment
In which we have no say
In which we're given paradise
But only for a day

Nothing can be altered, there is nothing to decide
No escape, no change of heart, no anyplace to hide
You are all I'll ever want, but this I am denied
Sometimes in my darkest thoughts, I wish I'd never learned
What it is to be in love and have that love returned


Diamond Rio - One More Day


Last night I had a crazy dream
A wish was granted just for me,
It could be for anything
I didn't ask for money
Or a mansion in Malibu
I simply wished, for one more day with you

CHORUS
One more day
One more time
One more sunset, maybe I'd be satisfied
But then again
I know what it would do
Leave me wishing still, for one more day with you

First thing I'd do, is pray for time to crawl
Then I'd unplug the telephone
And keep the tv off
I'd hold you every second
Say a million I Love You's
That's what I'd do. With one more day with you

CHORUS x2


Leave me wishing still for one more day
Leave me wishing still for one more day...
With you


Leann Rimes - Please Remember


Time, sometimes the time just slips away
And youīre left with yesterday
Left with the memories
I, Iīll always think of you and smile
And be happy for the time I had you with me
Though we go our seperate ways
I wont forget so donīt forget
The memories we made

Please remember, please remember
I was there for you and you were there for me
Please remember our time together
The time was yours and mine
While we were wild and free
Please remember, please remember me

Goodbye, thereīs just no sadder word to say
And itīs sad to walk away
With just the memories
Whoīs to know what might have been
Weīll leave behind a life and time
Iīll never know again

Please remember, please remember
I was there for you and you were there for me
And remember, please remember me

Please remember, please remember
I was there for you and you were there for me
Please remember our time together
The time was yours and mine
While we were wild and free
Then remember, please remember me

And how we laughed and how we smiled
And how this heart was yours and mine
And how no dream was out of reach
I stood by you, you stood by me
We took each day and made it shine
We wrote our names across the sky
We ride so fast we ride so free
I had you and you had me
Please remember, please remember


Live - Dance With You


sittin' on the beach
the island king of love
deep in fijian seas
deep in some blissful dream
where the goddess finally sleeps
in the lap of her lover
subdued in all her rage
and I am aglow with the taste
of the demons driven out
and happily replaced
with the presence of real love
the only one who saves

I wanna dance with you
I see a world where people live and die with grace
the karmic ocean dried up and leave no trace
I wanna dance with you
I see a sky full of the stars that change our minds
and lead us back to a world we would not face

the stillness in your eyes
convinces me that I
I don't know a thing
and I been around the world and I've
tasted all the wines
a half a billion times
came sickened to your shores
you show me what this life is for

I wanna dance with you
I see a world where people live and die with grace
the karmic ocean dried up and leave no trace
I wanna dance with you
I see a sky full of the stars that change our minds
and lead us back to a world we would not face

in this altered state
full of so much pain and rage
you know we got to find a way to let it go

sittin' on the beach
the island king of love
deep in fijian seas
deep in the heart of it all
where the goddess finally sleeps
after eons of war and lifetimes
she smilin' and free, nothin' left
but a cracking voice and a song, oh lord

I wanna dance with you
i see a world where people live and die with grace
the karmic ocean dried up and leave no trace
I wanna dance with you
i see a sky full of the stars that change our minds
and lead us back to a world we would not face
we would not face
we would not face
we would not face
we would not face
we would not face


Barbra Streisand and Vince Gill - If You Ever Leave Me


When I fall your my place to land
I lose my touch your my hands
The onw i hold on to
If you run out of reasons to try
I love enough for both you and I
I'll be the one you can run to

I'd rather go thru any pain love puts us thru
Then to spend one day without you by my side

chorus

If you ever leave me
Will you take me with you
If you're ever lonely I want to be lonely too
My home is beside you
No matter where you may go
My love is inside you
Even more than you know

In a world of anger and lies
I find peace in your eyes
A flame in the darkness

And thru all space and time
Till every star refuses to shine
You know where my heart is

I'd rather go thru any pain love puts us thru
Then to spend one day without you by my side

chorus

If you ever leave me
Will you take me with you
If you're ever lonely I want to be lonely too
My home is beside you
No matter where you may go
My love is inside you
Even more than you know

And I cant remember life without you
The way it used to be
Feels like a million years away

Hold me till the angels sing
Tell me every little thing
Promise me forever from this day.

chorus..

If you ever leave me
Will you take me with you
If you're ever lonely I want to be lonely too
My home is beside you
No matter where you may go
My love is inside you
Even more than you know


Aerosmith - I Don't Want To Miss A Thing


I could stay awake just to hear you breathing 
Watch you smile while you are sleeping 
While youīre far away dreaming 
I could spend my life in this sweet surrender 
I could stay lost in this moment forever 
Every moment spent with you is a moment I treasure 

I donīt want to close my eyes 
I donīt want to fall asleep 
Cause Iīd miss you baby 
And I donīt want to miss a thing 
Cause even when I dream of you 
The sweetest dream will never do 
Iīd still miss you baby 
And I donīt want to miss a thing 

Lying close to you feeling your heart beating 
And Iīm wondering what youīre dreaming 
Wondering if itīs me youīre seeing 
Then I kiss your eyes 
And thank God weīre together 
I just want to stay with you in this moment forever 
Forever and ever 

I donīt want to close my eyes 
I donīt want to fall asleep 
Cause Iīd miss you baby 
And I donīt want to miss a thing 
Cause even when I dream of you 
The sweetest dream will never do 
Iīd still miss you baby 
And I donīt want to miss a thing 

I donīt want to miss one smile 
I donīt want to miss one kiss 
I just want to be with you 
Right here with you, just like this 
I just want to hold you close 
Feel your heart so close to mine 
And just stay here in this moment 
For all the rest of time 

Donīt want to close my eyes 
I donīt want to fall asleep 
Cause Iīd miss you baby 
And I donīt want to miss a thing 
Cause even when I dream of you 
The sweetest dream will never do 
Iīd still miss you baby 
And I donīt want to miss a thing 

Donīt want to close my eyes 
I donīt want to fall asleep 
I donīt want to miss a thing 


Backstreet Boys - Set Adrift on Memory Bliss


According to the hour glass days go 
And all I do is think of you 
And wonder where you are at night 
Oh, I remember everything 
Every smile, even all the reasons why you say 
I pushed you out of my life 

Baby you set me, 
Baby you set me, 
Set adrift on memory bliss of you 
Baby you set me, 
Set adrift on memory bliss 

Destiny is everything 
Reality has replaced you with 
The biggest empty void I've ever had in life 
I bet you say that I don't care 
I bet you say that I don't even think of you 
But God knows how wrong you are 

Baby will you be there 
Just give me time 
To fix my life 
Baby will you be there when I open my eyes 
After all the time I spent wishing 

Sadness that overwhelmed me 
My mind carelessly matched that 
You are happy with your life right now
I guess that's just the way it goes 
Forever's gone 
So now I must place you with all the things 
That I could never have

Baby you set me 
Baby you set me 
baby you set me 
Set adrift on memory bliss 
Set me, you set me

Come on now 
I know this love is true 
I know this love is true 


Faith Hill - Breathe


I can feel the magic floating in the air 
Being with you gets me that way
I watch the sunlight dance across your face
And I've never been this swept away

All my thoughts just seem to settle on the breeze
When I'm lying wrapped up in your arms
The whole world just fades away, the only thing 
I hear is the beating of your heart 

Cause I can feel you breathe
It washes over me
And suddenly I'm melting into you
There's nothing left to prove
Baby, all we need is just to be 
Caught up in the touch
Slow and steady rush 
Baby, isn't that the way that love's supposed to be? 
I can feel you breathe
Just breathe

In a way I know my heart is waking up
As all the walls come tumbling down
Closer than I've ever felt before
And I know, and you know
There's no need for words right now

Cause I can feel you breathe
It washes over me
And suddenly I'm melting into you
There's nothing left to prove
Baby, all we need is just to be 
Caught up in the touch
Slow and steady rush
Baby, isn't that the way that love's supposed to be? 
I can feel you breathe
Just breathe

Caught up in the touch
Slow and steady rush
Baby, isn't that the way that love's supposed to be? 
I can feel you breathe
Just breathe

I can feel the magic floating in the air 
Being with you gets me that way


Duran Duran - Ordinary World 


Came in from a rainy Thursday on the avenue 
Thought I heard you talking softly
I turned on the lights, the TV and the radio 
Still I can't escape the ghost of you 
What is happened to it all? 
Crazy some would say
Where is the life that I recognize? 
Gone away

But I won't cry for yesterday, there's an ordinary world
Somehow I have to find
And as I try to make my way, to the ordinary world
I will learn to survive

Passion or conincidence once prompted you to say 
"Pride will tear us both apart" 
Well now pride's gone out the window cross the rooftops
Run away
Left me in the vaccum of my heart
What is happening to me?
Crazy some would say
Where is my friend when I need you most? 
Gone away

But I won't cry for yesterday, there's an ordinary world 
Somehow I have to find
And as I try to make my way, to the ordinary world
I will learn to survive

Just blown away 

Papers in the roadside tell of suffering and greed 
Fear today, forgot tomorrow 
Ooh, here beside the news of holy war and holy need 
Ours is just a little sorrowed talk 

And I don't cry for yesterday, there's an ordinary world 
Somehow I have to find
And as I try to make my way, to the ordinary world
I will learn to survive

Every world is my world
I will learn to survive 
Any world is my world
I will learn to survive

Any world is my world 
Every world is my world


Elvis Costello - She


She may be the face I can't forget 
The trace of pleasure or regret 
May be my treasure or the price I have to pay 
She may be the song the summer sings 
May be the chill the autumn brings 
May be a hundred different things 
Within the measure of a day 

She may be the beauty or the beast 
May be the famine or the feast 
May turn each day into a heaven or a hell 
She may be the mirror of my dreams 
The smile reflected in a stream 
She may not be what she may seem inside her shell 

She who always seems so happy in a crowd 
Whose eyes can be so crowded and so proud 
No one's allowed to see them when they cry 
She may be the love that cannot hope to last 
May come to me from shadows of the past 
But I'll remember till the day I die 

She may be the reason I survive 
The why and wherefore I'm alive 
The one I'll care for through the rough in many years 
Me, I'll take her laughter and her tears 
And make them all my souvenirs 
For where she goes I've got to be 
The meaning of my life is she 
She 
She 


Goo Goo Dolls - Iris


And I'd give up forever to touch you 
Cause I know that you feel me somehow 
You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be 
And I don't wanna go home right now 

And all I could taste is this moment 
And all I can breath is your life 
And sooner or later it's over 
I just don't wanna miss you tonight 

And I don't want the world to see me 
Cause I don't think that they'd understand 
When everything's mad to be broken 
I just want you to know who I am 

And you can't fight the tears that ain't comming 
Or the moment of truth in your lies 
When everything feels like the movies 
Yeah, you bleed just to know you're alive 
And I don't want the world to see me 
Cause I don't think that they'd understand 
When everything's made to be broken 
I just want you to know who I am 

And I don't want the world to see me 
Cause I don't think that they'd understand 
When everything's made to be broken 
I just want you to know who I am 

And I don't want the world to see me 
Cause I don't think that they'd understand 
When everything's made to be broken 
I just want you to know who I am 

I just want you to know who I am 
I just want you to know who I am 
I just want you to know who I am 


Sarah McLachlan - Possession


Listen as the wind blows 
From across the great divide 
Voices trapped in yearning 
Memories trapped in time 
The night is my companion 
And solitude my guide 
Would I spend forever here 
And not be satisfied 

And I would be the one 
To hold you down 
Kiss you so hard 
I'll take your breath away 
And after I'd wipe away the tears 
Just close your eyes dear 

Through this world I've stumbled 
So many times betrayed
Trying to find an honest word
To find the truth enslaved
Oh you speak to me in riddles and 
You speak to me in rhymes 
My body aches to breathe your breath
You words keep me alive

And I would be the one 
To hold you down
Kiss you so hard 
I'll take your breath away 
And after I'd wipe away the tears
Just close your eyes dear 

Into this night I wander
It's morning that I dread
Another day of knowing of 
The path I fear to tread
Oh into the sea of waking dreams 
I follow without pride
Nothing stands between us here 
And I won't be denied

And I would be the one 
To hold you down
Kiss you so hard 
I'll take your breath away 
And after I'd wipe away the tears 
Just close your eyes dear


Take That - Holding Back The Tears 


I kinda keep asking myself many questions 
Where do I go from here 
I seem to keep losing track of time 
And how long itīs been 
Since I last had you near 
Been a painful road to a door thatīs closed 
Been a gamble that I knew I couldnīt win 
Been a lonely conversation to this photograph of you 
In the mirror thereīs a sign I must give in 

So Iīm not holding back the tears anymore 
Trying to escape the heartache 
Trying to escape emotion 
So Iīm not holding back the tears anymore 
Yesterdayīs my memory 
Reminding me of all the times that I depended on you 

I used to enjoy spending time on my own here 
Watching the jaded people past 
Now here I am sharing their pain and their lonely tears 
And walking a road of broken glass 
Itīs never been easy 
Itīs a constant fight to get through each day and night 
Itīs a war between the present and the past 
And the face thatīs in your mind every time you close your eyes 
Whatīs the reason? 
Whatīs the answer? 
How long will this last? 

So Iīm not holding back the tears anymore 
Trying to escape the heartache 
Trying to escape emotion 
So Iīm not holding back the tears anymore 
Yesterdayīs my memory 
Reminding me of all the times that I depended on you 

Been a long long time 
Since I heard your last goodbye 
Still I hear it clearly every day and night 
Whatīs the point in love when you have to give it up 
But still you need it and itīs no where you can find 

So Iīm not holding back the tears anymore 
Trying to escape the heartache 
Trying to escape emotion 
So Iīm not holding back the tears anymore 
Yesterdayīs my memory 
Reminding me of all the times that I depended on you 

Holding back the tears anymore 
Trying to escape the heartache 
Trying to escape emotion 
No Iīm not holding back the tears anymore 
Yesterdayīs my memory 
Reminding me of all the times 
That I depended on You


Tim McGraw - Please Remember Me


All our tears have reached the sea
Part of you will live in me 
Way down deep inside my heart 
The days keep coming without fail 
New wind is gonna find your sail 
That's where your journey starts

You'll find better love 
Strong as it ever was 
Deep as the river runs 
Warm as the morning sun 
But please remember me

Like the waves down by the shore 
We're gonna keep on coming back for more
Cause we don't ever wanna stop
Out in this brave new world you'll see 
Over the valleys and the peaks
And I can see you on the top

You'll find better love 
Strong as it ever was 
Deep as the river runs 
Warm as the morning sun 
But please remember me

Remember me when you're out walking
When snow falls high outside your door
Late at night when you're not sleeping
And moonlight falls across your floor 
And I can't hurt you anymore

You'll find better love 
Strong as it ever was 
Deep as the river runs 
Warm as the morning sun 
But please remember me

Please remember me


Trademark - Even When I Close My Eyes


Yesterday I held you 
Miles away I miss you 
And all the love that you gave to me 
Time goes by without you 
I still dream about you 
I won't give up, we are meant to be 

I never thought you'd ever be the only one 
But there's something telling me that I was wrong 

Even when I close my eyes 
I can still see your face 
Cause baby a love this strong 
Time can not erase 
Even when I close my eyes 
If you knew how much I care 
That baby you're always there 
Even when I close my eyes 

On my lips I still taste 
Our last kiss and I pray 
There'll come a time to hold you once more 
Smile for me and let the whole world see 
That our love will never die 
It's worth fighting for 

I never thought I'd ever have regrets 
But there's someting about you I just can't forget 

Even when I close my eyes 
I can still see your face 
Cause baby a love this strong 
Time can not erase 
Even when I close my eyes 
If you knew how much I care 
That baby you're always there 
Even when I close my eyes 

I never knew with you I had it all 
Guess I couldn't see the writing that was on the wall 
Sometimes you have to go away just to find 
That what you're searching for is exactly what you left behind 

Even when I close my eyes 
I can still see your face 
Cause baby a love this strong 
Time can not erase 
Even when I close my eyes 
If you knew how much I care 
That baby you're always there 
Even when I close my eyes 


Whitney Houston - I Will Always Love You


If I should stay
I would only be in your way
So I'll go, but I know
I'll think of you ev'ry step of the way

And I will always love you
I will always love you
You, my darling, you

Bittersweet memories
that is all I'm taking with me
So, goodbye 
Please, don't cry
We both know I'm not what you need

And I will always love you
I will always love you

I hope life treats you kind
And I hope you have all you've dreamed of
And I wish to you joy and happiness
But above all this, I wish you love

And I will always love you
I will always love you
I will always love you
I will always love you
I will always love you
I will always love you

You, darling, I love you
Ooh, I'll always, I'll always love you


Lifehouse - Hanging By A Moment

Desperate for changing
Starving for truth
Closer to where I started
chasing after you

I'm falling even more in love with you
letting go of all I've held onto
I'm standing here until you make me move
I'm hanging by a moment here with you

Forgetting all I'm lacking
Completely Incomplete
I'll take your invitation
you take all of me

now i'm falling even more in love with you
letting go of all i've held on to
I'm standing here until you make me move
I'm hanging by a moment here with you
I'm living for the only thing I know
I'm running and I'm not quite sure where to go
and I don't know what I'm diving into
just hanging by a moment here with you

There is nothing else to lose
There is nothing else to find
There is nothing in the world
that could change my mind
There is nothing else...

desperate for changing
starving for truth
I'm closer to where I started
I'm chasing after you

I'm falling even more in love with you
letting go of all I've held onto
I'm standing here until you make me move
I'm hanging by a moment here with you
I'm living for the only thing I know
I'm running and not quite sure where to go
and I don't know what I'm diving into
just hanging by a moment here with you...
