FOREVER FOR TONIGHT
Could I be with you alone
I'm not sure where this will go
Cause we don't have the time we need
Just enough to make us bleed
Cause I'll be leaving soon
It's hard to say when I'll return
And I don't want to lead you on
So if you feel the need
Close your eyes and share this dream
It will be eternity
Forever for tonight
I will be there to hold you through the night
Forever for tonight
I will love you forever for tonight
Forever for tonight
As I look into your eyes
Feelings much too strong for us not to try
And if by chance we lose this fight
Darling we still have tonight
So when I'm far away
I will always be with you
You will never be alone
So if you feel the need
Take my hand and share this night
It will be eternity
See I've been broken down by empty promises
Like a sky without a star
And I've been having doubts that I could feel again
But I believe that I'm in love

~ Les Brown ~
Because of their courage, their lack of fear, they (creative people) are willing to make silly

that many of his great ideas will prove to be worthless. The creative person is flexible -- he is
able to change as the situation changes, to break habits, to face indecision and changes in
conditions without undue stress. He is not threatened by the unexpected as rigid, inflexible
people are.
