Beautiful in Your Eyes

I hear your voice, it speaks to me
In vain attempt to set me free
A voice not His, but the softest hum
An angel`s voice, a familiar one

That time has passed, yet still remains
The fractured heart of a soul in pain
I feel you now, you reach to me
Compelling me to let you be

You gave me life, the one we shared
And love complete, beyond compare
A shining star forever free
Now watching over deep Blue Sea

And even though your wish is clear
Your memory is to me too dear
Your story will not close this day
To put aside, or give away

When flowers bud, I`ll give to you
A piece of me to keep with you
Until another year is done
To keep you warm where you are gone

So do not refrain to speak to me
I will listen, and I will see
But I will not forget the ties
And that I was beautiful in your eyes

The Wind

I wish to run into the wind
To greet the sky and kiss the rain
Let go my soul, in time begin
To see the light, be free again;

To feel the warmth, and hear no sound
Let go the chains to which I'm bound
And will my feet to part with ground
To journey to a new place found;

And as I melt into the blue
I only wish it could be true
That you could start a life anew
That I could fly to be with you;

And without fear of those who shun
I would rise to meet the sun
And look below and see the ones
Who cannot know the joy I've found;

But, alas, in time all things must end
To earth I must return again
To bear the weight, and play the game
And go back from the place I came

Mother Love

How can I find the words to say
To tell you how I feel today
To speak of you in my own way
This debt I owe I cannot pay;

How can I find the words to show
A depth of love, you'll never know
And though the days they come and go
My love for you forever grows;

My heart remembers days gone past
When you gave to me, and you took last
Although a child my eyes did see
The sacrifice you made for me;

Your hands betrayed a soul, so giving
You hid your pain, to go on living
But my eyes they saw, and had misgivings
For sorrow caused in the beginning;

Now when I think upon your face
I see an angel in your place
Unspoken joy, a love, a grace
I never thanked you in my haste;

And life it goes so very fast
You look around and it has passed
What can I do, what can I say
To prove my love, so you will stay;

Now times I look up to the sky
I see a light, I see your eyes
But when I think upon the moon
My heart it knows, it was too soon;

And now I fall with heavy heart
And days so gray, a darkness hard
My soul with you will never part
Sweet memories to forever guard.

Black Sheep

You always said you were a sheep
The black one of the family
For years you searched your place to keep
And did so with much dignity;

But who is this guarding over me?
The one that watches, the one that sees
The one who stands in way of harm
With heart of gold and warmth of palm;

A sheep I see, I must relay
This one not black, but a golden way
Of eyes so wise and manner gay
And with such spirit, I cannot say;

And if you look into her eyes
You will fall into a sky
Of blue so deep, which cannot lie
And hold you till your fear has died;

What have you done, where have you been?
I look for you, I can't begin
You are my beacon, my only fin
When I am lost and cannot swim;

You are my light, to climb that hill
And if I stumble, I'll hold on 'till
I find the rock that will hold me still
And you'll be there, I know you will;

Still more, this sheep will never run
Away to hide, it fears no one
For it stands strong under the sun
To guide the way for old and young;

But do not be fooled, a sheep so keen
A mind as this, you have not seen
And those around will seek to glean
The bits of brilliance upon the green;

This mind so bright to burn the eyes
Of those who hide behind disguise
And wit so sharp to cut through lies
And kill deceit of those unwise;

But if in turn, you fall, you cry
Or need a place to run and hide
I will not think, or ask you why
A promise made, you can rely;

I will be there for you to hold
As you have been, I will be bold
I'll search for you in darkness cold
I will repay your heart of gold;

So lest you fret, that you're a part
Of other's blood, of foreign start
No need to wish upon a star
Look in my eyes and see your heart

Where are you?

What came of you my sister fair
I've come to ask you if you dare
Lay down your fears, erase your doubts
And tell me of your whereabouts;

I'll come for you, and trace a path
To bring you home, forget the wrath
Where hearts await to rid the hate
Burn down your walls before it's late;

And think upon the days of song
Consider where the world went wrong
Before the words that cut so deep
Begin to see and take the leap;

We will catch you, one and all
Strong together, you will not fall
Embraced in arms held open wide
If your heart it be your guide;

The time is now to reunite
Lay down your sword, let go the fight
To open book and turn the page
And put an ending to this rage;

But listen now, and hear me true
No soul to call this truce but you
For who was this with tongue so sharp
That cut through ties, and slivered hearts

Ce Père

Je doit parler d'un homme si grand
Un coeur qui bat si fort, si lent
Qui s'ouvre plus grand avec le temps
Qui donne à tous de son talent;

Comme lui, il y en a pas pareil
Pour donner sa place au soleil
Qui dans la nuit, protège, surveil
Courageux comme un abeil;

Si tu savait comment je t'aime
Le dire, j'ai jamais pris la peine
Mais pour toujours et çe sans gène
Un amour solide, et serène;

Et quand je me trouve au berçeau
Je pense à toi au bord de l'eau
Je voit un homme si fier, si beau
Ceci mon père, mon beau cadeau;

Et si tu peut trouver le temps
On trouvera l'abris du vent
J'écouterais tes histoires au lent
On se parlera de sentiments;

Comment te dire merci çe soir
Pour tous çe que tu a fait pour moi
Tu m'a donné ton coeur de joie
Mais ça sera mon tour cette fois;

Et quand je marche aux alentours
Que soit la nuit, que soit le jour
Tu est là, et je te trouve
Dans tous les coins de mon amour

Brother


So many times I wished to hold
Your hand in mine and be so bold
To open mind, let down my guard
And introduce you to my heart;

And though our lives we do not share
There is a bond, fragile and bare
And through the years, as time goes by
Your esteem I will hold high;

You stand tall and give an air
Of boldness grand and without care
But underneath the thin veneer
A tender soul and heart so dear;

A lonely ship, once lost it be
And battled winds, in darkened sea
But through the mist, and over tides
Found victory on the other side;

And though your spirit, tattered and torn
In your eyes a new light born
That deep within your soul you found
The strength of ten, to carry on;

And now I look into your face
A new found joy has found it's place
A women sweet with soul to keep
To watch upon you as you sleep;

So fear no more the sounds of night
Keep near to heart this new found light
And close your mind to all things past
Embrace the day, and life, at last

Almond Eyes

I still remember almond eyes
Your sweetness, your forever smiles
A bundle, an angel, brought home to me
My future friend, my sisterly;

At night you slept, I heard no sighs

And in the morning I did rise
To see your face, your almond eyes
Your innoncence it told no lies;

To you I sang 'My Ruby Love'

And said you were my sky above
I kissed your ear and in my heart
I new I loved you from the start;

I told you tales of days to come

When you would look and I'd be gone
It came too soon my time to leave
And I know, for me, you did so grieve;

Oh in your eyes such pain I saw

A broken heart, I know that now
I wish I could go back in time
And comfort you sister of mine;

But years have passed, and now you're grown

A women sweet, I should have known
But there's one thing you can't disguise
I still can see your almond eyes!

And if you leave and go away

I will not fight, I will not say
To you a word to make you stay
For you, like me must make your way;

Though in my heart, other stories told

My grief and tears I promise to hold
I'll kiss your ear, I'll take your hand
And wish you well in another land
