I called you friend for part of my life,
                                           With you I've shared my love and strife,
                                               You've changed me and that's true,
                                          I have to ask 'Did I do the same for you?'
                                        Have I changed your life in some little way?
                                       Did I somehow make you have a better day?

                                                          I must know before I go,
                                           The impact of my love you must show,
                                                       It took me forever to find,
                                    My friends have my back when I'm in a bind,
                                               I hate to leave you here all alone,
                                              But you all love me you have shown,
                             

                                             Please don't replace me in your heart,
                                              With deepest regrets I must depart,
                                             I don't want to say what I have to say,
                                              You must realize this isn't some play,
                                              We don't all live happily ever after,
                                           But luckily my life was full of laughter,

                                                              I want to live my life,
                                                Without pain, suffering, or strife,
                                  It doesn't seem possible to do what I have to do,
                                                        fore I die I must tell you,
                                                       You mean the world to me,
                                                I hope that you will someday see,
                                                  

                                                      Dying was my one true fate,
                                              And for that meeting I can't be late,
                                                     When I die you mustn't cry,
                                                       And I won't either' I'll try,
                                                      I hate that all of you know,
                                                        But now I must really go,
                                          God's calling me home to heaven above,
                                          Thanks for my last days so full of love,

                                               You can only run after you crawl,
                                                     Now I'm ready for the fall.

Tear drops fall from your blue eyes
and my heart stops a beat at their sight.
I pull you close to me,
try to take the pain from you,
make it my own.
My cheek lays against yours
and your tears burn my face
as I whisper,
"Darling, it will be all right."

My tears blend with your own,
your pain now mine,
and our tears become one
as they fall in rivers on the sheets.

I dry your tears with kisses,
soft upon your face,
shelter you from pain
in the recesses of my love.
Our bed becomes a chalice
and we drink in each others sorrow,
finding salvation in each other's arms;
pain washed away giving rise to passion
'till we forget there ever were tears.  

Waiting For You...!

I sit alone at the sea-shore
Looking at the waves
I send the boats of leaves
With my words
“Come ‘n’ be with me
I’m waitin’ for you…!”

Under the tree
Or on the branch O’it
Where together we used to sit
I engrave my words on it
“Come ‘n’ be with me
I’m waitin’ for you”

In the village streets
Hands in hands
We used to walk
Now I walk alone
And sing…
“Come ‘n’ be with me
I’m waitin’ for you”
