A Friend
One night while I was praying I heard Jesus say.
I am life, I am the way.
Take my hand and I'll show you the way.
Down the long and narrow road, with but a candle to
lighten the way.
The truth is mine to give to the few,
who seek my everlasting love.
While away in college,1973
I wrote this for my mother, and a friend made
up the musical notes to go with it,
sadly I lost the musical sheet,
when my mom knew her time was short some 20 yrs later.
she sent the original music sheet back to me,
It was written for guitar. I know the tune by heart though.
My mother always told me I was her birthday present,
I was born three days after hers. She would say you can't give me a better gift.
When I wrote this, it was to give her back in return,
just a little of what she had given me.
My mother was one of my best friends, we used to take walks
together. We would talk about life, and always we would talk
about Jesus,and talk to Jesus as we walked. Jesus is the very best friend
anyone could ever ask for, and I am so thankful he reached down,
to take my hand and let me know him as friend.

fairytale and gave this to me to use in the fairytale
A New country song I really like the lyrics to and it says a lot about true love
I 'll Still Love You More
Ask me how much you mean to me
And I wouldn't even know where to start
Ask if this love runs deep in me
And you won't find a deeper love in any heart
You could say you couldn't live one day with out me
You could say all you thoughts our about me
You could think no other love could be as strong
But you'd be wrong You'd be wrong
Chorus:
If you say that you love me More than anybody
Than anyone's ever been loved before
As much as you love me
Baby I'll still love you
Baby I'll still love you more
I'll still love you more
Ask me just what I'll do for you
And I'll tell I would do anything
Ask if this heart beats true
And I'll show you a truer heart could never be
You could say that there's not a star you won't bring me
You could say there'll be no day you won't need me
You'd think no other love could last as long
But you'd be wrong You'd be wrong
(Chorus)
And for every kiss I'll kiss you back a hundred times
And for everything you do I'll just do more
And for all the love you give
I'll give you so much back you'll see
Got so much love for you inside
(Chorus)
If you say that you love me More than anybody
Than anyone's ever been loved before
No matter how much as you love me
Baby I'll still love you
Baby I'll still love you more
yeah
I'll still love you more

The Moments We Share
If there was a way that time could be saved
I'd save every day that we are together;
So that forever we would be.
For the moments we share, are the ones I treasure.
No one will ever be as special to me as you.
Each day I love you more, each year more precious
I Love you Forever More

Smoke rings
Smoke rings from the ring now idle and cold.
They linger in my mind,with the love that died.
The one who used to smoke it faraway,never to be found.
Tenderly I hold them in the shadows of my soul, in the hopes of retaining
the love lost. Knowing that someday the rings will fade away,along
with the love that was lost.
Returning
Lonely is a word my life seems bound to hear.
A cry for love my heart does sing.
My footsteps growing longer, seeking peace of mind.
Yet I feel the warmth of the light shining from above.
Now I know it's guiding me home, to a love and peace that is true.

Destruction
Why do people mock, always sneering at what they don't understand.
They destroy what they can't define, they fear what is not known.
People hate because of the fear of what is different, what is unknown
to them.
Not taking the courage, to reach out and learn of the love, that is within others,
never taking the time, to see the reflection of themselves within another.
The Vault
For so long I have longed for love, but it never reaches me.
It sometimes seems so very close, but then it floats away
always just out of my reach.
Everyday I feel colder, knowing someday, I'll be frozen within,
unable to touch the warmth that love brings.
