I'm only human
I still remember
Betrayed
Do you remember me?
I try
One day
Fantasy
Confused
Eternal love
Amour perdu
Innocence
Is love worth it?
Stuck in the past
Heartbreak
Lost in life
Memories
Amour éternel
Peace of mind
Perfect stranger
Mixed reality
Love shared
If only
Drinking and driving
Without a clue
Thinking about you
I wake up
Unresolved love
Too right to be wrong
Realm of love
Dreaming of you
Running away
Always you
If you ask me
Simple pleasure
"I'M ONLY HUMAN"
I'm sorry if I can't do everything you want
"I STILL REMEMBER"
I still remember your smile
"BETRAYED"
You promised me passion
"DO YOU REMEMBER ME?"
Do you remember the love you once felt for me?
Because I still remember the happiness you once brought to me.
Well, now you are free
"I TRY"
I try to be happy
I try to forget
But the hurt is still there
"ONE DAY"
One day, I'll be happy.
"FANTASY"
Thinking about you
You simply entered my life
Completely out of touch
"CONFUSED"
Unsure about the future.
I've come so far
"ETERNAL LOVE"
When a feeling is so strong
If only you knew
Together
"AMOUR PERDU"
Beauté et simplicité
Amour sans problèmes
Vivre dans le passé.
"INNOCENCE"
A child's innocence lies in his trust.
You stole my innocence
A child's innocence
"IS LOVE WORTH IT?"
Is love worth the fight
"STUCK IN THE PAST"
Hurt and alone
Memories shared
Love is never easy
It hurts to remember
"HEARTBREAK"
I try to believe
The pain I feel
"LOST IN LIFE"
Life is a maze
Lost in this world
Following my heart
"MEMORIES"
Your memory is a great place to visit
"AMOUR ÉTERNEL"
Eternel amour
Manque de temps
Yeux qui pleurent
"PEACE OF MIND"
Searching through the confusion
Trying to solve the puzzle
To look in the mirror
"PERFECT STRANGER"
Perfect stranger
Savouring every moment we share
Putting my heart on the line
Uncertain about the future
"MIXED REALITY"
Fantasy and reality
Sharing my thoughts
Completely out of touch
Wanting to touch
"LOVE SHARED"
Passion burning within my heart
Sharing my hopes and dreams with you
Protecting others is what I've always done
Unsure about what the future may hold
"IF ONLY"
If only I could touch you
"DRINKING AND DRIVING"
Close to her body, he paused to stand
"WITHOUT A CLUE"
Memories of the past
Imagine the trust
Revenge is sweet
Everytime I see you
"THINKING ABOUT YOU"
Just thinking about you
Nowhere to run
Only you can break the spell
Magic or madness
Intimate relationship
"I WAKE UP"
I wake up once again
Love is hard enough as it is
God has a plan
You've given me so much
"UNRESOLVED LOVE"
Looking towards the future
But what if I'm wrong?
The pain is already there
"TOO RIGHT TO BE WRONG"
Sensuality at its best
"REALM OF LOVE"
Exploring the realms of my soul
"DREAMING OF YOU"
If dreams came true
But how do you really know
Appearances are often deceiving
"RUNNING AWAY"
I look towards the future
I turn to you
I want to run
"ALWAYS YOU"
If I told you I loved you
If I gave you my heart
"IF YOU ASK ME"
If you ask me who I love
But your face is not the one that fills my dreams.
"SIMPLE PLEASURE"
Simple pleasure
Savouring every moment
Nowhere to go
Teasing my body
I'm only one person.
I'm sorry if I make mistakes now and then
I'm only trying to learn.
I'm sorry if I hurt you sometimes
I'm only trying to help.
I'm sorry if I say or do the wrong things
I'm only trying to please.
I'm sorry if I don't always mind my own business
I'm only trying to protect you.
I'm sorry if I don't live up to your standards
I'm only being myself.
And most of all,
I'm sorry if I can't always make you happy
I'm only human.
The first time I looked at you.
I still remember the happiness I felt
The first time you told me you cared.
I still remember the comfort you gave me
When all I felt was despair.
I still remember the warmth that overwhelmed me
The night I held you in my arms.
I still remember the joy I felt
When I knew you were the one.
I still remember the light in your eyes
The day I told you I wanted you too.
I still remember the heartbreak I felt
The day you said our relationship was over.
I still remember the pain I experienced
The day I realized it was all too good to be true.
That would always be strong.
You promised me love
That would never go wrong.
You gave me the moon and stars
Then took them all away.
You made me feel special
Then simply turned the other way.
Do you remember how you promised the world to me?
Do you remember my tears when "us" became "you" and "me"?
Do you remember the future you had promised to me?
I still remember the pain you repeatedly caused me.
I still remember that I simply didn't want to see
That always and forever just weren't meant to be.
But I still cannot see
Why the relationship we once had
Still brings so much heartbreak to me.
I try to move on
I try to accept
The fact that you're gone.
All the painful memories.
I try to accept
That it wasn't meant to be.
And the memories are too.
You meant so much to me
I just can't forget you.
One day, I'll be free.
One day, I'll find out
What's hidden inside of me.
Not knowing if you're real.
Not knowing who you are.
Not knowing how I really feel.
At just the right time.
A mix of fantasy and reality
It can be confusing sometimes.
I must be careful not to dream.
Too perfect to be real
It may not be what it seems.
Stuck in the past.
Life feels like torture.
How long is this going to last?
There's no turning back.
I'll wish on a shooting star
For the confidence that I lack.
How can it be wrong?
Why can't it be right?
If we both tried it might.
That my love is true.
But you can't see
That we are meant to be
Forever
Eternally.
T'aimer fut facile.
Te garder pour l'éternité
Ton coeur sur un fil.
Ne put pas exister.
Je t'aime tout de même
Mais c'est dur à accepter.
Retrouver l'amour perdu.
Réparer mon coeur brisé.
You took that away from me
For a few moments of pleasure
On that fateful summer day.
And left in its place,
Hurt, anger and a lack of trust.
I was betrayed.
Is so precious, you see.
How could you steal something
That is so vital to me?
And the sleepless nights?
I wish I knew
If your love was true.
I wish I knew what I could say
Or knew what I could do
To make you feel the love for me
That I have always felt for you.
Don't reach for that phone.
Stuck in the past
How long will this last?
You knew how much I cared.
Now I'm alone
Alone and scared.
It often makes you crazy
I try to forget the past
Am I really free at last?
The joys and the pains
It hurts to remember
The struggles and the strains.
That it's over, we're through.
But my mind keeps on drifting
To visions of me and you.
I just can't compare
Whatever happened
To the moments we shared?
Which road do I take?
Will I make a mistake?
And be left in a daze?
Without a single goal
Searching for happiness
In an endless dark hole.
From beginning to end.
I don't know where to start
Will the torture ever end?
But never try to live there.
Your memories are days gone by
So they won't take you anywhere.
You must cherish your memories
But leave them in the past.
Keep them in your mind and heart
So that they will grow and last.
Regrets du passé
Intensité comme toujours
Chance ou éternité?
Attention à ton coeur
Seule dans le vent
Seule dans le bonheur
Yeux qui crient
Mots sans coeur
Mots sans bruit.
For that single grain of truth
Looking for peace of mind
In a jungle of lies.
To make myself whole
Reaching for that brass ring
Afraid of falling in the black hole.
And know what I see
Know what I want
Know who I'm meant to be.
Held close to my heart
Imagining what could be
Living so far apart.
Coming to terms with how much I truly care
Opening my heart and soul to you
Praying you honestly care about me too.
Each and every single time
Turning to you even though you're not mine
Talking with you; yearning for more time.
Only God knows the truth
Leaving it up to destiny
Overwhelmed by reality.
Living side by side
Growing confused
How do I really feel inside?
Opening my soul
Letting you discover
What makes me whole.
I must be careful not to dream
Unsure about the future
Things may not be what they seem.
Nothing there to hold
Caring so much
Afraid to be left cold.
Harboring my true feelings buried from the start
Investing my time to know if it could be true
Loving you passionately just because you are you.
Coming to terms with what I need to do
Opening my heart and soul for all to see
Pleasing everyone is just not meant to be.
Even though I know it can't possibly be done
Trying to move on and doing what feels right
Terrified that what seems wrong may actually be right.
Only time will tell and the whole story be told
Longing to know if our love could ever be
Only God knows the truth about you and me.
And not be afraid that you'll disappear.
If only I could hold you
And know that you are real.
If only I could kiss you
And not worry that I'd get lost forever.
If only I could love you always
And know you are the one.
As he slipped his class ring off of her hand.
All who watched did not care to speak
As a single tear rolled down his cheek.
All through his mind, memories ran
Of all the good times they once had had.
He held his class ring and started to cry.
He touched her cheek and wanted to die.
As the cold wind began to blow
They lowered her casket down below.
This is what happens to many alive
When friends let friends drink and drive.
Another angel of mercy.
Remember it won't last
Time is not eternity.
Nothing more to give.
Love is not lust
Again I'll have to forgive.
I know that it's true.
Valuable lessons
Intended for me and you.
Realizing you are there
Everytime without a clue.
On this particular day
Haunted by your presence
Afraid to turn away.
Nowhere to hide
Evil is everywhere
Love is at my side.
Vengence is not your style
Everytime I look at you
Secrets hidden in your smile.
Another mystery unsolved
Regrets and sadness
Terrorized by it all.
Nothing to hold on to.
From a dream about you
To the reality of the present
To a life that seems too unfair to be true.
When you can get lost in your lover's eyes.
The pain just seems unbearable
When I can't have you always by my side.
For me and for you.
Our paths crossed for a reason
That much I know is true.
Probably much more than you will ever know.
You've taught me about myself
But I know my pain still shows.
My heart still remembers the past
I've seen this movie before
It's just a different cast
What if you are the one?
Why am I so afraid
To get hurt again by someone?
But the hope never dies
I will always care
My heart never lies.
Every part of me touched
Anybody can be like the rest
Not many people find the key to my heart
Just too right to be wrong
Another chance at that brass ring
Always trying to be strong
Thinking about what tomorrow may bring
Instant attraction
Never doubting it's real
Everytime I think of you
Not knowing how you truly feel
Realizing you've always lived there
Incredible attraction
Could it be real this time?
Keeping faith alive
Always following my heart
Proving the whole world wrong
Investing my feelings from the start
Nobody has ever made me feel so free
Until the day we met and forever after
Saving all of eternity for you...
I'd be with you tonight
If my heart could decide
Everything would turn out right.
What is right and what is wrong?
What makes one person feel weak
May make another person feel strong.
You may feel confused from the start
You must always remember to think with your head
But never forget to follow your heart.
But part of my heart still lives in the past.
I smile through my tears
Constantly wondering how long the pain will last.
Only to realize you aren't there.
I turn around
And see darkness everywhere.
But there's nowhere to hide.
There's no escape
When all the hurt comes from inside.
Would you simply smile and walk away?
If I promised you forever
Would I be throwing away today?
Would you want to give it back?
After you've seen my soul
Can you ever turn back?
I'll tell you I love you.
If you ask me who I want to be with
I'll tell you I want to be with you
Your touch is not the one that sends shivers down my spine.
Your smile is not the one that touches my soul
And makes me yearn for a love that is mine.
Ecstasy without pretense
Burning desire without mesure
Awakening all my senses.
Totally lost in the sensation
Inviting any kind of release
Every door leads to satisfaction.
Not a place to hide
Abandonning all resistance
Never wanting to leave your side.
Every inch yearns for more
Loving each gentle touch.
