“Perhaps love is like the ocean
Full of conflict, full of pain
Like a fire when it’s cold outside
Or thunder when it rains
If I should live forever
And all my dreams come true
My memories of love will be of you”

Beautiful, poignant song!
Angels
Robbie Williams – Angels
“I sit and wait
Does an angel contemplate my fate
And do they know
The places where we go
When we’re grey and old
‘cos I have been told
That salvation lets their wings unfold
So when I’m lying in my bed
Thoughts running through my head
And I feel that love is dead
I’m loving angels instead”
Touch the Sky
Lyrics
What fortunes lies beyond the stars
Those dazzling heights too vast to climb
I got so high to fall so far
But I found heaven as love swept low
My heart beating, my soul breathing
I found my life when I laid it down
Upward falling, spirit soaring
I touch the sky when my knees hit the ground
What treasure waits within Your scars
This gift of freedom gold can’t buy
I bought the world and sold my heart
You traded heaven to have me again
My heart beating, my soul breathing
I found my life when I laid it down
Upward falling, spirit soaring
I touch the sky when my knees hit the ground
Find me here at Your feet again
Everything I am, reaching out, I surrender
Come sweep me up in Your love again
And my soul will dance
On the wings of forever [x2]

My new favorite song of the day ❤️
Prince of Peace
Sharing this amazing (Christian) song.
Prince of Peace – Hillsong United
My heart of stone; clouds raging deep within
The Prince of Peace came bursting through the wind
The violent sky held its breath
And in Your light I found rest
Tearing through the night, riding on the storm
Staring down the fight, my eyes found Yours
Shining like the sun, striding through my fear
The Prince of Peace met me there
You heard my prayer
Hope like the sun; light piercing through the dark
The Prince of Peace came, broke into my heart
The violent cross, the empty grave
And in Your light I found grace
Tearing through the night, riding on the storm
Staring down the fight, my eyes found Yours
Shining like the sun, striding through my fear
The Prince of Peace met me there
You’re always there
You’ve been hearing my prayer
Your love surrounds me when my thoughts wage war
When night screams terror, there Your voice will roar
Come death or shadow, God I know Your light will meet me there
When fear comes knocking, there You’ll be my guide
When death brings trouble, there You hold my heart
Come storm or battle, God I know Your peace will meet me there
Again
Oh, be still my heart
Know that You are God
No fear, no evil
For I know You are here
And my soul will know:
Your love surrounds me when my thoughts wage war
When night screams terror, there Your voice will roar
Come death or shadow, God I know Your light will meet me there
And my soul will know:
When fear comes knocking, there You’ll be my guide
When death brings trouble, there You hold my heart
Come storm or battle, God I know Your peace will meet me there
Oh, be still my heart
My soul will ever know that You are God
And You heard my prayer
Basement Kiss
I discovered this song yesterday, quite by accident. I was listening to Transvision Vamp (remember them?), and stumbled across this offering from Wendy James. I love it!
Lucy Grace can’t show her facedown in the North End Road
For in Belgravia
Rumours have been whispered
and suggestions have been made
Did you sell your friends out
when the heat got too intense?
You say you like the danger
but it’s only a pretence
You say you need the money
When everybody knows you can
always fall back on your inheritance
Did you bruise your arms on those false alarms?
Did you bruise your pride on his smile so wide?
Only fingertips from forbidden bliss
Did you bruise your lips in this basement kiss?
Who’s that sneaking round the door?
You can’t come here no more
Can’t you go home again?
She used to sit alone for hours
Spend her evenings watering dried flowers
When her mother came to stay
and finally went to bed
Lucy Grace was in the front room
shooting through your head
She tried to take your breath away
and give you something else instead
Next year she’ll serve her function
in that Audrey Hepburn hat
It still won’t serve her much
but she’ll get over that
She’ll be pale and feign indifference
as they’re handing out the prizes
Spilling Daddy’s pearls of wisdom
And her ugly sister’s tranquilizers
Why were you so tardy putting up your guard?
When you hurt so easily and you try so hard
Did you bruise your arms on those false alarms?
Did you bruise your pride on his face so snide?
Only fingertips from forbidden bliss
Did you bruise your lips in this basement kiss?
A Good Heart
Classic 80s, when last did you hear this song?
Truly, Madly, Deeply
Heard this on the radio, thought I would share!
Truly, Madly,Deeply by Savage Garden
I’ll be your dream
I’ll be your wish I’ll be your fantasy
I’ll be your hope I’ll be your love
Be everything that you need
I’ll love you more with every breath
Truly, madly, deeply do
I will be strong I will be faithful
’cause I’m counting on
A new beginning
A reason for living
A deeper meaning, yeah
[chorus:]
I want to stand with you on
a mountain
I want to bathe with you in the sea
I want to lay like this forever
Until the sky falls down on me
And when the stars are shining
brightly in the velvet sky,
I’ll make a wish send it to heaven
Then make you want to cry
The tears of joy for all the
pleasure and the certainty
That we’re surrounded by the
comfort and protection of
The highest powers
In lonely hours
The tears devour you
[chorus]
Oh can you see it baby?
You don’t have to close your eyes
‘Cause it’s standing right
before you
All that you need will surely come
I’ll be your dream I’ll be your wish
I’ll be your fantasy
I’ll be your hope I’ll be your love
Be everything that you need
I’ll love you more with every breath
Truly, madly, deeply do
[chorus]
I want to stand with you on a
mountain
I want to bathe with you in the sea
I want to live like this forever
Until the sky falls down on me
