Lyric Poems (681)

I go into a single's bar
try to pick up a lady there
no matter how hard I try
I just seem to get nowhere
is it the clothes that I have on
or maybe the way I part my hair
I wish I knew cause I need
someone so I can get over you

Night's get cold in February
especially the fourteenth
when you can't find your heart
Night's get cold in February
especially when two valentines are apart

I remember when you wrote
it on a card and gave it to me
no matter how hard I try
it still seems to get to me
is it just those three words
maybe the way it use to be in your eyes
I wish I knew cause I need
someone so I can get over you


Night's get cold in February
especially the fourteenth
when you can't find your heart
Night's get cold in February
especially when two valentines are apart

Silent like the night
you came into my life
then like thunder
You cast me under your spell
The electricity that surged
through my soul
I was half a man
then you made me whole
Now you're leaving
I need to let you know
Just let me say these words
before you go

I breathe for you
Yes,I breathe for you

Gasping and coughing
I need your fresh air
You just turn from me
as if you don't care

I breathe for you
Yes,I breathe for you

I love the beach
it's my most favorite place in the world
I love sit on the sand and watch the pretty girls
Dream my life away
Oh, I love the waves
The beach is my most favorite place in the world

The boulevard on a Friday night
Pop a brew and I'll be feeling all right
The job want be on my mind
I'm going to have a good time
The beach is my most favorite place in the world

I love the beach
it's my most favorite place in the world
I love sit on the sand and watch the pretty girls
Dream my life away
Oh, I love the waves
The beach is my most favorite place in the world


This weekend has gone by in a flash
I've had a good time but I spent all of my cash
I'll go back and earn a dime
But, I know what will be on my mind
The beach is my most favorite place in the world

I love the beach
it's my most favorite place in the world
I love sit on the sand and watch the pretty girls
Dream my life away
Oh, I love the waves
The beach is my most favorite place in the world

My voice rises above the ocean,
I am longing for you, so far and so alone.
Hear my call, Ô magnificent goddess,
It's your prince who calling you.

Listening to my voice, your steps have stopped.
Listening to my song, your heart has stopped.
The cruise of the time was suspended,
And the wide space was tinged with blue.

Your eyes getting up towards my voice
which implores you, from the other side of the sea
She begs you to come back to my shore,
Where you and I, together, would be so happy.

With a graceful gesture, you have taken your harp,
And with your nimble fingers, you gently touch the strings.
I hear your song in my turn that the ocean takes me back,
preceded by a white dove which anounces me your love.

Like a messenger from the gods,
She said that soon we will be together,
What we'll stand tenderly entwined
At the edge of the ocean that separated us so much.

The dove said, "love has no boundaries, no distance,
It is eternal and even, time has no hold on him.
FOr me, the greatest benefits will be your shared love,
and the vision of your eyes flooded with happiness. "

The lyrics of a song...

All my time has gone
All my hope has gone
All my life I wondered who would come...

(Chorus - between each verse and alt at and)
You are my 'one'
You are the sun
You are the light that makes me see

You stepped in to my world
You changed the way I'm me
And now I find there's no more sun to see

(Chorus)

And now your silence kills
No more mental thrills
Just the chill of night without the sun

(Chorus)
(Inst)

You are my one
You are the sun
You are the only one for me....

...but now there's just me.

She wakes me every morning
with a smile and kiss
when I'm away at work
I'm the one she'll miss
she's the one I wanted
she was made for me
my sweet Melinda Ray
the woman of my dreams

She's always been there when
I've been down on luck
when I need someone
she always picks me up
she's the one I wanted
she was made for me
my sweet Melinda Ray
the woman of my dreams

She is beautiful
I want her to know
she is beautiful
and I love her so

she's the one I wanted
she was made for me
my sweet Melinda Ray
the woman of my dreams

Been thinking about you everyday
been thinking about you every night
finally come to the conclusion
I don't even cross your mind
I know that ain't no story
I know that ain't no lie
finally see in the confusion
some hearts just don't cry

I'll get over you
I know I will in time
When I get over you
you won't even cross
my mind

Tried to make you happy
tried to make you laugh
finally see the illusion
you won't break me in half
tried to give you my heart
tried to give you my soul
finally see there's no fusion
just wanted you to know

I'll get over you
I know I will in time
When I get over you
you won't even cross
my mind

I don't wanna get serious
if I did you'd be the one
I just wanna go out
and have some fun

I've been hurt more than once
I couldn't stand it again
I just want to go out
and have some fun
I don't wanna talk about love
I don't wanna talk about love

I don't wanna get serious
if I did you'd be the one
I just wanna go out
and have some fun

Baby you're mighty tempting
it's hard to turn to stone
I just want to go out
and have some fun
I don't wanna talk about love
I don't wanna talk about love

I don't wanna get serious
if I did you'd be the one
I just wanna go out
and have some fun

I wonder where my old friends are
it's been a lot of years
I wonder where my old friends are
I wish that they where here with me

Lewis you'd to bag groceries
at the grocery store
wonder if he does it still
John use to be so tall
he'd shoot basketball
Kenny use to act so cool

I wonder where my old friends are
it's been a lot of years
I wonder where my old friends are
I wish that they where here with me

Rush use to love cameras
he'd shoot most anything
wonder if he does it still
Al use to be so short
but still he love his sports
Randy use to drive like a fool


I wonder where my old friends are
it's been a lot of years
I wonder where my old friends are
I wish that they where here with me

The years have gone by
like they where fired from a gun
but the memories remain of
when we had so much fun
the years go on and on

I wonder where my old friends are
it's been a lot of years
I wonder where my old friends are
I wish that they where here with me

South Carolina
is where my heart is
it's where I grew up
it's where I raise my kids
South Carolina

Can't think of a place
that I would rather be
it's where I was born
it's always been home to me
South Carolina

Sometimes I need a change
My heart goes astray
I feel like taking off
I feel like getting away
but,my home town calls
then I'm back on my way
South Carolina
