Something I Can't Get Over

It's always raining in my head.
I wish the sun would shine instead.
But as long as I'm in bed,
crying over you,
there's nothing I can do.

And I'm looking out of the window
hoping to find an answer.
Why do I love you so?
It's something I can't get over.
Tell me,'cause I need you so badly.
Without you, I'm never happy.
And it's something I can't get over.
It's something I won't get over.

Now that we've gone our seperate ways,
there's nothing good to look for anyway.
No matter what you try to say,
without you, I can't be okay.

Cause it hurts inside to be alone.
To have to depend to survive on your own.
Without your one true love to consol.
I'm here watching my life go...

It's somethig I won't get over. (No matter how hard I try)
It's something I can't get over. (Not even with all my might.)
It's something I won't get over. (This feeling I have inside.)
And it won't be over 'til the day I die.

After Last July

All I have is the voice
to remember her by
and the visions of her smile
in my mind.
"Just let it go"
That's what everybody says,
but I can't.
It's not that easy always.

Let's say she's still alive.
What would she say?
Why, everyday, do I act this way?
She flows through my blood inside.
Let's say she's still here.
What would she do?
Would she wipe my tears
and ease my fears?
And she beats in my heart inside.

And it's been 9 months
since I kissed her hand
and felt her skin.
But it's been fun
to cherish all the moments within.
Just let it pass.
That's what I try to do everyday,
but I can't.
I try to have her wake,
but she still lays.

All I have are the memories
that we shared.
And they let me know she cared.
"Don't dwell",
that's what she says,
but we both know well,
it won't be the same...

Oh, no, it won't be the same

Spero Stai Bene

Spero stai bene.
Cause it's been so long
too long to count the days.
Sento la tua mancanza.
Oh, I miss you everyday.

Breathing was easy
when I was with you.
Living, instead of grieving-
Now what do I do?
Ora che cosa faccio?

And here.
in lonely, empty world.
It's more quiet than before.
Il sole e le stelle
watch over me
when I sleep...

Dreaming was easy
when you were here with me.
Seeing was intriguing.
Now what memories can I keep?
Ora che cosa faccio?

Oh, somewhere, wherever you are.
Oh, there, you take care.
I'll rest on your arm.
I hope you are well.
Wherever you are,
I hope you are well.

Catching Butterflies

A little girl,
no more than 6 years old,
stands out in the yard.
Blowing dandilions,
sipping honey suckles,
dealing with all the time she's got.

And she likes catching butterflies in her net.
She thinks you're the sun in her eyes
or the gold around her neck.
She likes the color blue
if you guessed.
She knows more about you
than the flowers on her dress.

This sweet girl,
with no more than lent in her hair,
frolics and calls it "dancing with the air".
Well, I never knew her name,
I just played her games
and put her picture in a frame.

The girl who catches butterflies and
then lets them go.
It may come as a surprise,
if you knew she was alone.
Catching butterflies without a care
in the world-
a little girl no more than 6 years old.

She knows, she knows, she knows...
about catching butterflies.

Cups

I saw you.
How could you?
Do you have a heart inside?
Don't say you didn't mean it
oh, babe, cause I won't believe it.
Face it, you did wrong.

I saw cups fly.
The sound of them shatter on the floor
still plays in my mind
and how she cried,
when you left out the door.

It scares me.
It tears between
my emotions for you.
I seemed so happy
until I found out what it is that you do.

I saw cups fly.
The sound of love getting ready to die
still shows the light
and how she lied,
when you said goodbye.

The Night We Let Go

I was at a party with my friends.
Before it started, I knew this was the end.
I saw you, baby.
You looked up with those blue eyes.
The same ones you gave me when you lied.

On the night we let go,
I saw some things I never thought I would
and let me know
all I should've been told.
Thank you for the night we let go.

Was it a foolish mistake I made?
Why was I so stupid of the price I paid?
Well, things cost alot
, but not as much as I had lost.
Silly, how was the game?

You looked up with those blue eyes.
You caught me by surprise.
I should have realized.
How dumb was I...
on the night we let go?

Deadly Voices in Song

I can't sleep here
alone in fear.
I hear voices
voices coming from the dark.
They're not haunting ghosts,
but with all the noises,
you'd swear the most
out of it all.

I hear babies
innocent babies.
Their blood shed there,
dead on the floor.
Oh, my ladies.
Precious ladies,
why couldn't you think before?

You lied with him.
You tried again
to correct all you did.
But, there, he left
you wallowing in your sin.
And you didn't think then...

All of this happened
in just one night.
I heard you screaming through the fight.
You ask me why the melody
of this song
is so strong
to prove you wrong
and show the light.

I can't sleep here.
Alone with fear.
I hear voices
Deadly voices in song.

My Love

Hold my hand
take my heart.
Walk along the sand.
Watch the waves split apart.

oh,oh,oh, oh
my love, be every part of my life.
oh, oh, oh, oh
my love, keep me here tonight.

Settle down low
behold the stars.
Guide me where you go.
Show me who you are.

oh,oh,oh,oh
My love, be my shining light.
oh, oh, oh, oh
My love, I'm yours tonight.
oh,oh,oh,oh- my love.
oh,oh,oh,oh-my love, my love

Your eyes are bright
like the sun in the morn.
Your touch is so warm.
Captivation; it's how it's done.

Sometimes (I Wanna Cry)

Oh, oh
something comes over me
and it doesn't feel too bad.
In fact, it's pleasing to know you're the one I have.
In my mind
I may feel confused,
lost without a trace.
But somewhere in the blue,
I see your face.

And sometimes
I just wanna cry.
and sometimes I wanna laugh
and think of the times.
Is it my fault that you make me smile
my tears away.
And sometimes I wish we could save that day.

yeah, yeah
Something takes me by surprise
and it doesn't seem too bad.
By the way, by the look in your eyes,
it seems dreams were all you had.

See me.
I can see you.
As heaven opens up its doors,
Angels come through.

I wish we could save...
I wish we could save...
I wish we could save... that day.

She'd Love Like a Mother

Somehow you'll learn.
You don't have scars now, but they'll burn.
You tried to flirt with me.
'PlayeD with my emotions dangerously.
Now my heart's broken completely.

Baby, why did you tell me that you were alone?
You had us by your side.
And why did you tell me that she went home
and there she is outside?

Could it have been better to love her
cause she was your lover?
Could it have been better to mold her?
Cause she'd love like a mother.

She'd give you everything.
She opened up her doors.
Gave it all up of coarse.
And you left while she was sleeping.
And here you are with me.

Don't you lie to me.
Don't you lie to her.
We can see through your eyes easily.
You can't really heal all you hurt.

Blue Moments

'Tis all the words we used to say are all in my mind
for all of time.
And the way you'd call my name
and why I came.
It's all the same.

Well, you've moved on to another blue life.
and time is blue like the sky.
Tears'd fall from your blue eyes.
Oh, blue moments.
These blue moments are all mine.

Here in a room of maroon and white
I remember what it was like.
Millions of colors disguised in one hue.
The blood that ran through you.

But you've moved on to another new life.
And time stands still like the sky.
and the stars, below, are your eyes.
Oh, blue moments.
These blue moments are all mine.

Just another sip before you.
I felt a kiss from you.
And this feels like another blue...moment.

Tis all the words we used to say are all in my mind-for all of time.
Oh, blue moments, precious blue moments.
These blue moments are all mine.

Untrue Love

Sometimes light is cold.
It's best to be in the dark.
That's where you wanted me right
from the start.

We've fallen.
We've gotten up again.
We're lost now
with no where to begin.

The sun's hiding from us.
There's no light in our world.
There's no way we can trust...for sure.
The rain's falling from the clouds above.
And we're drowning, suffering from untrue love.

You've turned blind to me.
You can't see me... sorry.
I must try to leave.
All these years of tears & misery.

Soon after, you'll come running
and drop to your knees
begging, hoping I'll let you in again,
but it'll be different.

When He Came Back To Me

Don't ask me.
I wouldn't know.
He'd go and come back to me.

When I wasn't looking
with my eyes closed.
I couldn't see a thing.
When I was sleeping,
he was there creeping
in my dreams.

And I felt him in my arms.
On the coldest nights, it felt so warm.
Oh, oh.
I felt him touch my lips.
Like I was the melody to his song.
Oh, oh.
You came back to me,
now don't leave me alone.

After he left me
for you,
you'd think everything
was said and done.
But his lies speak like the truth.
Once you lose, it's all you've won.

When I was crying
with my eyes red.
Blood was running cold within.
And then, I saw you laying,
resting your head.
Your hands upon my skin.

When he showed at my door,
I knew my heart would fall to the floor.
With his lovely eyes
giving mine direction-
there wasn't a single question.

When he came back to me.
That's how he took me again.
When he came back to me.
His hands upon my skin.

Fruitful

(This is my haiku.)

Fruitful like me, yes!
The taste of apples and pears.
Fruitfulness is good.

Fruitful like this, yeah!
Cherries, watermelons fresh.
Fruitfulness feels good.

The touch of a new fruit.
Papaya juice sprees out free.
Fruitfulness tastes good.

DO NOT DISTURB

Everything happens in these 4 walls,
but I can take a hammer and crash them all.
Then you'll hear (what I scream about to tears).
Then you'll know (where all pain goes.)

What room can I better crash than this one?
The one I painted with words.
What room can I release myself in better than this one?
The one that has the sign,
"DO NOT DISTURB!"

I found my place in a hotel.
I sit back and play,
when things don't go well.
Then you'll believe (all of my grief).
Then you'll say ("Today's not her day.")

So do not disturb.
DO NOT DISTURB,
DO NOT DISTURB me today.

Life's No Movie

Life's no movie.
There's no pause or stop you can press.
Life's no movie.
No recorded DVD or VHS.
There's no such thing
as a movie screen.
What happens in this world
is what you see.
Life's no movie,
so why pretend?

Slow down, look down.
Just look around-
things are moving in a fast pace.
It's like the only things sane now
are the creatures below our faces.

Look up, look down, look away-
people say.
Look up, look down, look away-
and they say.
Look up, look down, look away-
look away.

In Love With Your Soul

Oh, I'm covered up in your blood.
You're covered in mind.
And doesn't it feel good?
Oh, tell me, does it feel good?

You hold my hand.
I've fallen in love.
But tell me, is it right?
Is it right, tonight?

You're holding me tight.
You make my dreams take flight.
Try hard as a might,
I dare not let go.
Cause it's hard to let go.
Why did I wait?
All to see what you'd create.
And now it's too late.
I've fallen in love with your soul.
I'm in love with your soul.

Oh, let me cry my tears
while you cry yours.
They're innocent.
They're so innocent.
With the touch of your soul
I freeze.
It's true. It's all too true.

You're so quiet
when you whisper in my ear.
I can't deny it,
it's all too clear.
Morning's coming.
The sun is rising.
Ever it is too lovely.
It's all too exciting

You Flew Away

I remember that day.
We both felt the same way.
The last time I saw your face.

You were so beautiful.
So wonderful.
It was a miracle.
Just waiting to happen.

And sometimes I don't feel like crying,
just laughing.
It makes me happy.
And I'm finding
it was just natural-
you flew away.
Oh, so natural-
you flew away.

I like reminiscing.
I try now, confessing.

You were such a blessing.
Right now you're resting.
So softly, so calmly.

Like a bird
you flew away.
And I knew
it was to happen someday.
And it's true
sometimes I may not feel okay.
But it's you
I dream of all day, everyday.

I see right now you're resting.
And confess now,
you're a reminiscence.

Ritratto

She has a cool cream face.
One that no one can replace.
It's brought me so much disgrace.
It's ridiculous.
She has a wonderous smile.
One that's only worth while.
She's a Mona Lisa's child.
The beauty is atrocious.

Portrait
She's in every painting
Da Vinci to Monet
It's amazing.
Portrait
it's all I see.
She's always in your arms.
If only it were me.
But you just forget my notions.
Every time you see the portrait.

Dipingi il ritratto.
Cuando vede
What can I do?
There's too much insanity!

She has the lust of Aphrodite.
Every move is to your liking.
The way she kisses is all you miss.
How can love be like this.
Lei e` sempre nella tu braccia.

I'm Your Everything

When you're down and blue, I'llbe there tohold you.
When there's nothing you can do, I'll be sure to help you through.
That's the way it should be.
That's the way it could be...

I'm your butterfly floating through your Spring.
I'm your precious bird with a song to sing.
I'm your helping hand when life isn't easy.
Yes, I'myour everything.
I'm your everything.

By the sea, you're lonely.
You could use a friend.
So if only God has an angel sent.
You need love and care.
I will always be there.
That's the way it is.
That's just how it should be.
