My path has led to you

I was treading water in the middle of the sea

Looking around there was no-one there for me

Suddenly a boat came out of the blue

On the boat there was only one person – You!

Someone was looking down on me that day

I didn’t believe but I thanked God anyway

Chorus

My path has led me to you

I know what I have to do

I’ll give you all of my heart

I’ll love you from the very start

My path has led me to you

I hope you feel the same way too

All the searching has finally gone

Our paths our now only one

Bridge

Is our life mapped out before our very eyes?

Is someone working their magic above the skies?

I was searching for something that I could not find

Life was tough and love was leaving me behind

Then cupid fired his arrow straight into my heart

You arrived like it had been planned from the start

When I thought it was over it had only just begun

Fate has taken over and my old path is finally done

I’ll wait for you

These feelings I can’t hold inside

My heart is exploding with pride

I’ll wait for you

I will not see you everyday

There’s no rush in seeing this play

I’ll wait for you

You and I have crossed paths before

Our lives now ready to explore

I’ll wait for you

A week or so and we won’t meet

Heart grows stronger with every beat

I’ll wait for you

Circumstances keep us apart

We’ll go back to the very start

I’ll wait for you

A simple text; it’s all worthwhile

I wish that you could see my smile

I’ll wait for you

A morning call; a kiss goodnight

Where there is dark you are my light

I’ll wait for you

These first steps I’m trying to gauge

A new chapter let’s turn the page

I’ll wait for you

Happy Place

 My heartbeat in harmony with a ticking clock

Driving slowly my mind taking stock

My mouth begins to dry not knowing what to say

Today could be my greatest day

A beep of my horn and you opened the door

You looked stunning; my jaw hit the floor

I couldn’t believe you were going out with me

I wanted to shout; I wanted the world to see

Chorus

A simple text or your beautiful smile

Takes me to my happy place

A simple joke or your infectious laugh

Takes me to my happy place

A simple touch of your perfect body

Takes me to my happy place

Why?

Because you are my happy place

Each day I ask you how you are and wait for your reply

My biggest fear is you run off with other guy

The time we spend together means more than you know

I’m not sure what’s happening or where this will go

All I know is that this is the happiest I’ve been in a while

You’ve allowed me to open up my heart after years of denial

I thank my lucky stars that fate brought us back together

I’ll cherish this time, this moment, now and forever

Bridge

How can I tell you how you make me feel?

Wanting to tell you how you make me feel

I Remember

I remember when people used to get along

But something somewhere went drastically wrong

Now people are aggressive and want to fight

Is it too hard to try and put things right?

I remember when people cared for their community

Now fragmented and no time to show unity

Saying good morning to a neighbour is in the past

Can we change?  Can we change fast?

I remember being shown by adults how to behave

Morals and standards I’ll take to my grave

There doesn’t seem to be the respect around anymore

Thus crime and abuse has continued to sore

I remember spending time with family for special days

To a field or beach with a ball and everyone plays

Families now working 7 days a week, no longer together

Children at home on gadgets, no matter what the weather

I remember being grateful for getting some pocket money

Now if it’s less that £10 children look at you funny

We have to move forward but take something from the past

Or the world that was once loved will definitely not last

Cloud Nine

I’ve got this feeling

A feeling I have not felt before

When I see you

The sea has finally found the shore

We walk together

My beaming smile I can not hide

You said goodbye

A small part of me slowly died

Chorus

You make me feel like I’m on cloud nine

You touched my hand; I took that as a sign

I’m standing here at the front of the line

One day I know you’ll be mine

You make me feel like I’m on cloud nine

When there is darkness you continue to shine

One day I know you’ll be mine

You make me feel like I’m on cloud nine

When I see you

I sometimes don’t know what to say

Later I text you

And our flirting is underway

We head out

And I’m as proud as can be

We carve our names

In the bark of our favourite tree

Bridge

If my heart was worth a million pounds

I’d give it to you for free

We have a voice

You’ve been suffering for far too long

You see your weakness but you are strong

Life has been hard, there is no point lying

Together as one; there’s no denying

When others walked I stood with you

Strength in numbers through and through

Walls were built and we slowly climbed over

We’ll keep fighting, this isn’t over

Chorus

We have a voice

A voice to be heard

A voice we’ll use

Even when we’re scared

We’ll stand side to side

When others will leave

We have a voice

We’ll fight for what we believe

There were times when it was hard

This fight others would discard

Knowing we had each others backs

Kept us together on the same tracks

We won’t give up; we won’t rest

Strong enough to conquer our quest

Join our journey and begin to fight

Fight for what we believe is right

Bridge

We all have a voice that comes from deep within

We refuse to lose; our voice will win

One Night Only

 I hadn’t heard from you in an age

Suddenly a message out the blue

An easy way in to begin to engage

Your initial message a way in for you

You asked how I had been doing

Searching for a specific answer

I asked you the same

You told me you just split from a dancer

Chorus

Give me one night to prove it

One night to prove it

One night to prove my love

All I need is one night to prove it

One night to prove it

One night to prove my love

You know how I feel about you

We’ve been down this road before

Every couple of months

You come knocking at my door

Not wanting to come in

But knowing I’m always there

I‘ve told you time and time again

How much I really care

Bridge

One day you’ll come knocking and I won’t be around

It will only take one night

To make you laugh out loud

Laughter is all I have

As I don’t stand out in the crowd

But with you things will be different

I’d stand six feet tall

People will notice me with you

Just make that one call
