White Christmas

I wake Christmas morning and look all around, Everywhere white with the snow on the ground

A white Christmas happened just like they all wished, But it seems heavy and looks like a drift

Some people attempt to go out down their drives, but the way they are sinking they are risking their lives

Who would have thought it would ever get so deep, all over night whilst most of us were asleep

Well now we must think about what we will do, It looks like a problem no one can get through

The Christmas plans ruined as here we sit, thinking of relatives we were meant to visit

It all looked so good last night before bed, Dreams of Christmas Dinner had filled all our heads

But now we are left with just basics in house, some bread and some cheese I may as well be a mouse

I hope you are happy all that dreamed of this day, A perfect White Christmas as songs used to say

But families all split, kept apart by the snow, Isn't the way you all thought it would go

So next time you wish can you all at least say, I'd rather see family than Snow on Christmas Day 

Winter

This Christmas when you look around, you see the sights and hear the sounds

The flashing lights that spark and glow, The homeless people lay below

The decorations in the shops, Entice us in and make us stop

We spend our cash and more besides, Just because we can’t decide

This for her and that for him, And one for me thats not a sin

The cold will bite as darkness falls, And we all leave the busy malls

Others drink and get merry, On alcohol and juice of berry

But some will sleep where we once walked, Whilst others they just pop more corks

The different worlds, stretch far apart, The roaring fire will warm our hearts

The roads will freeze and ice will form, the question is are we all really warm?

The answer lies out on the streets, under blankets, lay on seats

So whilst we celebrate with joy, The coming of a baby boy

Spare a thought for those who cannot, the ones that we have all forgot

You’ll see them everyday around, But most of them don’t make a sound

They sit and watch the world go by, The sit alone and wonder why

We maybe happy, we maybe sad, but I don’t really think we have it too bad

My Guide

These hard times are when I look to you more
I don’t know how much, of this that I can endure
You are my rock, my stability aid
You keep me safe when I am afraid

You are my guide my understanding
You give me sense when I’m insane
I feel I’m being too demanding
But you’re my shelter from the rain

You stand beside me providing support
You always teach me, what I’ve never been taught
To live without you I could never do
But I know that you’re always there for me too

You are my guide my understanding
You give me sense when I’m insane
I feel I’m being too demanding
But you’re my shelter from the rain

You’re always stronger, than I’ve ever been
You’re eyes have seen more, than I could have seen
But you will always, be more than a friend
And you’ll be with me till the bitterest end

You are my guide my understanding
You give me sense when I’m insane
I feel I’m being too demanding
But you’re my shelter from the rain

Wanted

I have been thinking, so much for a while
And it has left me at the base of the pile
But I must do something to climb up again
I’ve got to move on and I must lose this pain

If you don’t want me, maybe someone else will
But that won’t stop me from loving you still
My heart will be yours, if you want it back
You know where to find me, and all that I lack

I hadn’t planned on being single so soon
Cause I thought I’d won both the sun & the moon
But the bombshell that hit me when you said the words
Has turned me around and crashed in my world

If you don’t want me, maybe someone else will
But that won’t stop me from loving you still
My heart will be yours, if you want it back
You know where to find me, and all that I lack

I feel such a fool, the way that I feel
I could have sworn that this was the real deal
But you held the aces while I had just twos
And ever since that point I’ve been singing the blues

If you don’t want me, maybe someone else will
But that won’t stop me from loving you still
My heart will be yours, if you want it back
You know where to find me, and all that I lack

I span the wheel and your number came up
But I needed support just like a newly born pup
I couldn’t stand up without you there by my side
And you were the one in who I chose to confide

Stand Up

Tired and lonely I sit by the door
Looking outside I don’t want to explore
My soul is gone to a lonelier place
All I see now is the look on your face

I’ve got to stand up and take on the pain
I’ve got go out and stand in the rain
If I fall down and you are not there
Theres always someone to pick me up and to care

I hide away from the world outside
Yet search for friends in who I can confide
My heart feels empty where there was so much Love
Inside I’m dying but when push comes to shove

I’ve got to stand up and take on the pain
I’ve got go out and stand in the rain
If I fall down and you are not there
Theres always someone to pick me up and to care

When I need you, I look for your arms
And disappear in the thoughts of your charms
Then the dream dies along with my heart
And suddenly I’m right back at the start

I’ve got to stand up and take on the pain
I’ve got go out and stand in the rain
If I fall down and you are not there
Theres always someone to pick me up and to care

When a thought slips through my head
And something hits me about the words that you said
You changed completely from the woman I knew
Whatever happened, What did you go through

I’ve got to stand up and take on the pain
I’ve got go out and stand in the rain
If I fall down and you are not there
Theres always someone to pick me up and to care

Time Stands Still

Time stands still when I look at you
Your eyes shine brighter every time
You give me life when I feel lost
When I speak your name it always rhymes

Could I be the happiest person ever in the world
Your love gives me more as it slowly is unfurled
There’s nothing I won’t do to keep you by my side
The Love I feel inside happens when our worlds collide

Sitting here staring at your picture
Makes my mind wander to a special place
When we’re apart I think of nothing else
I truly feel that I’m winning in this race

Could I be the happiest person ever in the world
Your love gives me more as it slowly is unfurled
There’s nothing I won’t do to keep you by my side
The Love I feel inside happens when our worlds collide

A dream that came into my reality
You came in and set my world alive
The change I felt was brighter than the lightning
Now any storm I know I will survive

Could I be the happiest person ever in the world
Your love gives me more as it slowly is unfurled
There’s nothing I won’t do to keep you by my side
The Love I feel inside happens when our worlds collide

The Street

I’m watching the trees outside my room
The dulling light creates the gloom
A streetlight flickers, as it awakes
An eerie sight it starts to make
I sit in darkness, all alone
But not to cry, or gripe or moan
I like my life and where I’m at
I’ve lived my dreams of this and that
The darkness is falling faster still
As houses light up and streetlights fill
The daylight fades, but the night time sun
Lights the world, and peoples fun
I watch the people return from work
To just relax or go berserk
To pubs and clubs they all depart
As the evening becomes the start
They leave the hum drum all behind
For fun and leisure they will find
Some men on mobiles walk their dogs
The dogs chase rabbits and sniff at hedgehogs
A group of women pass my room
Off on a night out they all must zoom
The cars are driving far too fast
A gang of youths has just walked passed
They’ll cause some trouble for some poor soul
But they’ll be happy they made their goal
And as my eyes feel heavy and tired
I look at the world that I admired
The evening’s ending once again
But tomorrow they’ll be back, sunshine or rain
I close my eyes and drift away
To sunnier places where I will stay
Well for a while at least till morn
Then the day will be reborn

The

The rose that bleeds its petals dry
The tear that falls from my tired eye
The heart that burns without control
The darkness deep within my soul
The burnig sun, thefreezing snow
The feelings I wish I wouldn’t show
The brightest light , the darkest place
The smile that’s fallen from my face
The open door, the closing Gate
The words were spoke that sealed my fate
The fresh cut grass I love to breathe
The thoughts of you I just can’t leave
The wind that passes through the trees
The need I have to get off my knees
The friends who guide me through my days
The paths I tread, the different ways
The things that happen come what may
The choice I make, The price I pay
The choices that are made in haste
The Love I have just goes to waste
The truth that guides our every move
The fact I have so much to prove
The forces that touch everyone
The fact that you and me are one

Cold

I’m cold as I stand here out in the rain
Everything’s empty all that’s left is the pain
Tired eyes are half closed as I look at the clock
Time just stood still from the moment you knocked
I knew what was coming before you arrived
That is the reason I was hiding my eyes
I couldn’t let you see me, my eyes full of tears
It just was too much after all of these years
You opened the door with that look on your face
Suddenly everything seemed out of place
The words that you said flew past my head
Cause just at that moment my mind just felt dead
I didn’t want to accept that anything was true
Especially the words that were coming from you
I know that it happens but what had I done
I gave you everything but now you just run
As you turned to leave, I couldn’t resist
At least as we part please remember my kiss
I’m cold as I stand here out in the rain
Everything’s empty all that’s left is the pain

You Give Me Nothing

At times I look at life so hard, I wonder why I played that card
I reach out for a hand to help me, But all I get is broken candy
And the skies above are all greyed over, I think I lost my four leaf clover
Now I know what it feels like to be broken, From all the things that are left unspoken

But I have one thing to say to you

You give me nothing, You fail to see it
You give me nothing, I can guarantee it
You took away the best of me
And left me in my own disease
So I have one thing left to say to you

You Give Me Nothing

The trees all lose their leaves right now, And you damaged me the same somehow
I give up fighting my worst fears, and collapse into this lake of tears
The sea has changed from Blue to Red, I can't escape my pounding head
A life that's fallen in distress, My heart is starting to compress

But I have one thing to say to you

You give me nothing, You fail to see it

You give me nothing, I can guarantee it

You took away the best of me

And left me in my own disease

So I have one thing left to say to you

You Give Me Nothing

The star I wished upon has died, I find it hard to swallow pride

The icicles are forming fast, It's never easy when nothing lasts

Diamonds crack and break like glass, You took away all their class

It seems you made the lightning too, To strike me down just like you do

But I have one thing to say to you

You give me nothing, You fail to see it

You give me nothing, I can guarantee it

You took away the best of me

And left me in my own disease

So I have one thing left to say to you

You Give Me Nothing

The Thinker

I think about how all the things could have been
I lie awake dreaming of what I have seen
Thoughts roll around inside my head
I sleep wide awake all comfy in bed

I think about what it was like at the start
And how it feels now deep in my heart
I picture the scenes in my mind far away
I pull up the duvet determined to stay

I think of the time I've wasted with thoughts
The sleep I've denied myself with answers I've sought
A yawn in the morning is all that will show
That I have been dreaming awake again yes I know

I think of the passions and Turmoils life brings
Each thought battles the next onto each one I cling
But somehow another will pop into my head
Sleep postponed again as again I'm mislead

I think of how nice it would be just to sleep
To drift right away quiet and discreet
But I am a thinker my mind won't refrain
And this is why I dream awake once again
