Lyrics From the 2004 Regular Monthly Challenges
July - December

It's hard for me to say the things I want to say sometimes
There's no one here but you and me and that broken old street light
Lock the doors we'll leave the world outside
All I've got to give to you are these five words when I.
Thank you for loving me for being my eyes
When I couldn't see for parting my lips
When I couldn't breathe, thank you for loving me, thank you for loving me.
I never knew I had a dream until that dream was you
When I look into your eyes the sky's a different blue
Cross my heart I wear no disguise
If I tried, you'd make believe that you believed my lies.
Thank you for loving me for being my eyes
When I couldn't see for parting my lips
When I couldn't breathe thank you for loving me.
You pick me up when I fall down, you ring the bell before they count me out
If I was drowning you would part the sea and risk your own life to rescue me.
Lock the doors, we'll leave the world outside
All I've got to give to you are these five words when I
Thank you for loving me for being my eyes
When I couldn't see you parted my lips
When I couldn't breathe thank you for loving me.
When I couldn't fly oh, you gave me wings
You parted my lips when I couldn't breathe thank you for loving me...

Boy I never knew I could feel
The way I felt, when I felt the way
you were feeling me baby
I'm so out of control yeah...

Everytime you look my way
I realize more and more
How much I adore those pretty eyes
Of yours, I'm helpless baby

What I wanna know is
Are you willing to try
Can you love me for a lifetime
In just one night
Ohh...

Baby I love you (love you)
Baby I need you (need you)
I gotta have you (I gotta have you babe)
Can't be without you (be without you)

Baby I love you (yeah...)
Baby I need you (need You...)
I gotta have you (I gotta have you babe)
Can't be without you

Blessed and cursed on the same day,
The day that I first felt the power of you
Inside of me, such a strong feeling
There comes a time in everyone's life
When you know, and everyone around you knows
That everything is changed,
You're not the same, it's a new day

Oh... what I wanna know is,
Are you willing to try
There's got to be more meaning to this
Than what meets the eye...

Baby I love you
Baby I need you (baby I need you)
Gotta have you baby (I gotta have you)
Can't be without you (can't be without you)

Baby I love you (baby I love you)
Yea yeah... (baby I need you)
I gotta have you (I gotta have you)
Yea, yea yeah... (can't be without you)

Ooh... I love the way you kiss me
Oh, baby please
I'm about to loose my mind
Oh... talk to me, cause I'm beggin' for you and,
I'm down on my knees...
Baby I know you're the one that I need...

Look into my eyes - you will see
What you mean to me
Search your heart - search your soul
And when you find me there you'll search no more

Don't tell me it's not worth tryin' for
You can't tell me it's not worth dyin' for
You know it's true
Everything I do - I do it for you

Look into my heart - you will find
There's nothin' there to hide
Take me as I am - take my life
I would give it all - I would sacrifice

Don't tell me it's not worth fightin' for
I can't help it - there's nothin' I want more
Ya know it's true
Everything I do - I do it for you

There's no love - like your love
And no other - could give more love
There's nowhere - unless you're there
All the time - all the way

Oh - you can't tell me it's not worth tryin' for
I can't help it - there's nothin' I want more
I would fight for you - I'd lie for you
Walk the wire for you - ya I'd die for you

Ya know it's true
Everything I do - I do it for you

Somewhere out there,
Beneath the pale blue night,
Someone's thinking of me,
And loving me tonight.
Somewhere out there,
Someone's saying a prayer,
Then we'll find one another,
In that big somewhere out there.

(Chorus 1)
And even though I know how very far apart we are,
It helps to think we might be wishing
On the same bright star,
And when the night will start to sing
A lonesome lullaby,
It helps to think we're sleeping underneath the
Same big sky.

(Chorus 2)
Somewhere out there,
If love can see us through,
Then, we'll be together,
Somewhere out there, out where dreams, come true.

(Repeat Chorus 1)

(Repeat Chorus 2)

Let the stars fade and fall
And I won't care at all
As long as I have you

Every kiss brings a thrill
And I know that it will
As long as I have you

Let's think of the future
Forget the past
You're not my first love
But you're my last
Take the love that I bring
Then I'll have everything
As long as I have you

Let's think of the future
Forget the past
You're not my first love
But you're my last
Take the love that I bring
Then I'll have everything
As long as I have you

As long, as long as I have you

I can't fight this feeling any longer.
And yet I'm still afraid to let it flow.
What started out as friendship,
Has grown stronger.
I only wish I had the strength to let it show.

I tell myself that I can't hold OUT forever.
I said there is no reason for my fear.
Cause I feel so secure when we're together.
You give my life direction,
You make everything so clear.

And even as I WANDER
I'm keeping you in sight.
You're a candle in the window,
On a cold, dark winter's night.
And I'm getting closer than I ever THOUGHT I MIGHT.

And I can't fight this feeling anymore.
I've forgotten what I started fighting for.
It's time to bring this ship into the shore,
And throw away the oars, forever.

Cause I can't fight this feeling anymore.
I've forgotten what I started fighting for.
And if I have to crawl upon the floor,
Come crashing through your door,
Baby, I can't fight this feeling anymore.

My life has been such a whirlwind since I saw you.
I've been running round in circles in my mind.
And it always seems that I'm following you, girl,
Cause you take me to the places,
That alone I'd never find.

And even as I wander,
I'm keeping you in sight.
You're a candle in the wind,
On a cold, dark winter's night.
And I'm getting closer than I ever thought I might.

And I can't fight this feeling anymore.
I've forgotten what I started fighting for.
It's time to bring this ship into the shore,
And throw away the oars, forever.

Cause I can't fight this feeling anymore.
I've forgotten what I started fighting for.
And if I have to crawl upon the floor,
Come crashing through your door,
Baby, I can't fight this feeling anymore.

Hope life's been good to you
since you've been gone
I'm doin' fine now -- I've finally moved on
It's not so bad -- I'm not that sad
I'm not surprised just how well I survived
I'm over the worst, and I feel so alive
I can't complain -- I'm free again

Chorus:
And it only hurts when I'm breathing
My heart only breaks when it's beating
My dreams only die when I'm dreaming
So, I hold my breath -- to forget

Don't think I'm lyin' 'round cryin' at night
There's no need to worry, I'm really all right
I've never looked back -- as a matter of fact

Repeat Chorus

It only hurts when I breathe

Mmm, no, I've never looked back --
as a matter fact

Repeat Chorus

Hurts when I'm breathing
Breaks when it's beating
Die when I'm dreaming
It only hurts when I breathe

Hey
If we can't find a way out of these problems
Then maybe we don't need this
Standing face to face
Enemies at war we build defenses
And secret hiding places

I might need you to hold me tonight
I might need you to say it's alright
I might need you to make the first stand
Because tonight I'm finding it hard to be your man

Hey
More than angry words I hate this silence
It's getting so loud
Well I want to scream
But bitterness has silenced these emotions
It's getting hard to breathe
So tell me isn't happiness
Worth more than a gold diamond ring?
I'm willing to do anything
To calm the storm in my heart
I've never been the praying kind
But lately I've been down upon my knees
Not looking for a miracle
Just a reason to believe

I might need you to hold me tonight
I might need you to say it's alright
I might need you to make the first stand
Because tonight I'm finding it hard to be your man

Do you remember not long ago?
When we used to live for the nighttime
Cherish each moment
Now we don't live we exist
We just run through our lives
So alone
That's why you've got to hold me

Hey
If we can't find a way out of these problems
Then maybe we don't need this
Standing face to face
Enemies at war we build defenses
And secret hiding places

I might need you to hold me tonight
I might need you to say it's alright
I might need you to make the first stand
Because tonight I'm finding it hard to be your man

High above the mountains
Far across the sea
I can hear your voice
Callin' out to me

Brighter than the sun
And darker than the night
I can see your love
Shinin' like a light

And on and on this earth spins like a carrousel
If i could travel across the world
The secrets i would tell

You and i were meant to fly
Higher than the clouds
We'll sail across the sky
So come with me
And you will feel
That we're soaring
That we're floating up so high
'cause you and i were meant to fly

Sailng like a bird
High on the wings of love
Take me higher than
All the stars above

I'm burnin',yearnin',gently turnin' round and round
I'm always rising up
I never want to come back down

You and i were meant to fly
Higher than the clouds
We'll sail across the sky
So come with me
And you will feel
That we're soaring
That we're floating up so high
'cause you and i were meant to fly

Fly, i i i, fly, i i i

You and i were meant to fly
Higher than the clouds
We'll sail across the sky
So come with me
And you will feel
That you and i were meant to fly
You and i were meant to fly

She's got you wrapped up in her satin and lace
Tied around her little finger
She's got you thinkin' you can never escape
Don't you know your heart's in danger
There's a devil in that angel face
If you could only see the love that you're wastin'

Chorus:
I can love you better that that
I know how to make you forget her
All I'm askin' is for one little chance
'Cause baby I can love you, baby I can love you better

I'm gonna break this spell she's got on you
You're gonna wake up to find
You're my desire my intentions are tru
Hey babe I know it's time
You're gonna see what you mean to me
So open up your eyes cause seein' is believin'

Chorus x3

Bridge:
I can love you better than that
I can love you better
All I'm askin' is for one little chance
Cause baby I can love you, baby I can love you

Repeat Bridge
