LOVE IS A FOR LETTER WORD

For if I love you there’s nothing I wouldn’t do
Nothing that’s impossible or nothing left to prove

If I love you for whom you are
Then you don’t need to change 
And I don’t need to change you

Love is for lovers
For two people willing to give without keeping score
To give for the sake of giving
Simply because love is meant to let go of

Love is a for letter word
Freely
Openly
Repeatedly
I will love

And if there comes a time 
That this love finds your door closed
I will search for another
And repeat 
Because I know what love is for
To share…

I’M IN HEAVEN

I realized it wasn’t a dream

But the stars were perfectly aligned

Because every fantasy I thought of

Was already on your mind

And I didn’t want for nothing

And there was nothing you wouldn’t do

I realized I’m in heaven

Anytime I’m lying next to you

I saw the sun winking at me

As it gave way to the night

And the moon came up smiling

Providing us with nothing but the perfect light

The gentle breeze was like a serenade

And it sounded like a song

The way we feel together

 Should be call all night long

And I don’t want for nothing

And there’s nothing you wouldn’t do

‘Cause I realized I’m in heaven

Anytime I’m lying next to you

So let the angels harmonize

And Gabriel blow his horn

As we celebrate the special day

Our perfect love was born

Flowers stand in bloom

And even the waters are standing still

Mother Nature spoke out loud

I love the way this feels!

It’s a love meant for a lifetime

Given to us to share

I know for sure I’m in heaven

As long as you are there

ONE THOUSAND RAINDROPS

Since you’ve been gone
Life is just an if
You were my every thing
Now you’re the only thing I miss

Bored is my destination
My journey has no end
Not only have I lost my lover
I’ve also lost my friend

How could today be so different
I feel like yesterday never came
Its like I went from love
To love without you…and

If I counted one thousand raindrops
It wouldn’t kill enough time
To get over the pain
Or get you off my mind

And if I saw one thousand sunrises
It wouldn’t stop the fact
I want to cry out loud
That I miss you more than that

Now I can’t explain it
Because no one really cares
Everyone has their problems
And they don’t need a spare

So I look in every direction
Hoping an answer will come
To help me go from being solo
To us being back at one

How could today be so different
I feel like yesterday never came
Its like I went from love
To love without you…and

If I counted one thousand phone calls
You never returned
I would still make one more phone call
To try and get one more turn

And if I saw one thousand signs
No matter what they say
They would signal I need you here
Right now right away

If I counted one thousand raindrops
It wouldn’t kill enough time
To get over the pain
Or get you off my mind

...one thousand one, one thousand two
I'll keep counting raindrops  until I'm back with you
