DJ Sammy: Heaven (Candlelight remix)

Baby, you're all that I want
When you're lyin' here in my arms,
I'm findin' it hard to believe
We're in heaven

(We're in heaven)

Oh, thinkin' about all our younger years,
There was only you and me,
We were young and wild and free
Now nothin' can take you away from me
We've been down that road before
But that's over now,
You keep me comin' back for more

Baby, you're all that I want
When you're lyin' here in my arms,
I'm findin' it hard to believe
We're in heaven

And love is all that I need,
And I found it there in your heart
It isn't too hard to see
We're in heaven
(We're in heaven)

Now nothin' could change what you mean to me uh,
there's a lot that I could say
But just hold me now,
Cause our love will light the way

Baby you're all that I want
When you're lyin' here in my arms,
I'm findin' it hard to believe
We're in heaven

And love is all that I need,
And I found it there in your heart
It isn't too hard to see
We're in heaven
heaven

Now our dreams are comin' true,
Through the good times and the bad,
I'll be standin' there by you

(We're in heaven)

And love is all that I need,
And I found it there in your heart
It isn't too hard to see
We're in heaven

We're in heaven

**Reminds me so much what falling in love was like, when I fell in love with the first... and again with the second man I loved... but the words.. they are so perfect.. so much stronger in my life now... *grin* They describe the faith I have in what I have....

I get told that I'm too young for this sort of thing, but I love it anyway:

I'm not sayin' that I love you
I'm not sayin' that I'll care if you love me
I'm not sayin' that I'll care
I'm not sayin' I'll be there when you want me

I can't give my heart to you
Or tell you that I'll sing your name up to the sky
I can't lay the promise down
That I'll always be around when you need me

Now I may not be alone each time you see me
Along the street or in a small cafe
But still I won't deny you or mistreat you
Baby if you let me have my way

I'm not sayin' I'll be sorry
For all the things that I might say that make you cry
I can't say I'll always do
The things you want me to
I'm not sayin' I'll be true but I'll try


Ribbon of darkness over me
Since my true love walked out the door
Tears I never had before
Ribbon of darkness over me

Clouds are gatherin' o'er my head
That chill the day and hide the sun
That shroud the night when day is done
Ribbon of darkness over me

Rain is falling on the meadow
Where once my love and I did lie
Now she is gone from the meadow
My love goodbye

Oh how I wish your heart could see
How mine just aches and breaks all day
Come on home and take away
This ribbon of darkness over me

Yes come on home and take away
Ribbon of darkness over me

and one for New Year's

Well, I'm gonna get drunk and I sure do dread it, cause I know just what I'm gonna do-

Gonna spend my money, call everybody honey, gonna wind up singin' the blues! Spend my whole paycheck on some ol' wreck
and buddy, I could name you a few

But I'm gonna get drunk, and I sure do dread it, cause I know just what I'm gonna do...

Well, I'm gonna get drunk cause I can't stay sober, there's a lotta good people downtown, who like to hear me holler, see me spend my dollar, and I wouldn't think of lettin em down!
Now there's a whole lotta good ol Doctors, say I better start slowin it down, but there's more ol drunks than there are old doctors, so I guess I better have another round.....


if anyone can tell me what artist did this, I will love you forever - it's just one of those scratchy old mix tapes off my parents' records... damn me if I can remember who it is - I can sing it, tho!

She's my kind of rain

By Tim Mcgraw

She's my kind of rain
Like love in a drunken sky
She's confetti falling
Down all night

She sits quietly there
Black water in a jar
Says, Baby why are you
Trembling like you are

So I wait
And I try
I confess like a child

She's my kind of rain
Like love from a drunken sky
Confetti falling down all night
She's my kind of rain

She's the sun set shadows
She's like Rembrandt's light
She's the history that's made at night
She's my lost companion
She's my dreaming tree
Together in this brief eternity
Summer days, winter snows
She's all things to behold

She's my kind of rain
Like love from a drunken sky
Confetti falling down all night
She's my kind of rain

So I wait
And I try
I confess all my crimes

She's my kind of rain
Like love from a drunken sky
Confetti falling down all night
She's my kind of rain

She's my kind of rain
Like love from a drunken sky
Confetti falling down all night
She's my kind of rain

She's my kind of rain
Oh, rain on me
She's my kind of rain
