Stranger Of Love

STRANGER OF LOVE - Written by Carroll Bryant 

I see you running up behind me

On the highway of my heart

And if I ever let you catch me 

I know that it would tear me all apart 

I'm in the fast lane, baby 

And I don't think I want to slow down 

I can't let you catch me 

All I ever wanted was to mess around 

I'm a stranger of love

Stranger of love

I just want the quick hit, baby

Don't want to keep in touch 

I'm a stranger of love

Stranger of love

I'm always giving more than what I get 

I've had enough of bad love 

Your motor's always grinding 

You're speeding way past the speed of sound 

I can't chance to fall in love with you

I'm keeping my heart right here on the ground 

You got the looks that can kill, baby

Obviously that's for sure

Love is the monster that I'm afraid of

I don't want to fall for it anymore 

I'm a stranger of love

Stranger of love

I just want the quick hit, baby

Don't want to keep in touch 

I'm a stranger of love

Stranger of love

I'm always giving more than what I get 

I've had enough of bad love

I know what you’re thinking

All you need is to get your hands on me

It keeps you guessing

All you need is to get your lips on me

Well, baby I’m not going to let you catch me

I’ve got way too much speed

I live in the fast lane, baby 

And I don't think I want to be tied down

I can't ever let you catch me

All I ever wanted was to just mess around 

Because 

I'm a stranger of love

Stranger of love

I just want the quick hit, baby

Don't want to keep in touch 

I'm a stranger of love

Stranger of love

I'm always giving more than what I get 

I've had enough of bad love

Death By A Broken Heart

DEATH BY A BROKEN HEART - Written by Carroll Bryant 

I lived to die of a broken heart * It wasn't easy * Nobody said it was * To live without feelings * To give in vain * Such a wasted life some would say * Someone who gave their heart away * I did * And that's an unknown fact * She never accepted it * So I couldn't take it back * And so my time did finally come * The moment sure did arrive * Then everyone wanted to rationalize on how I died * Their thoughts became their words * Then the theory was blown apart * The truth be known I was all alone * And I died from a broken heart *

In the afterlife * Time stands still all the time * I wait for the chance * To show her how I feel * Then she comes to me * Like a dream that's coming true * I died in ecstasy as I was thinking about you * And the Gods of all creation * Will be my only witnesses * And testify to this * That my love did exist * And she was all the reason * Her love the lack thereof * In the moment of my final breath * I spoke her name * And so my time did finally come * The moment sure did arrive * It was an involuntary decision * In an attempt to just survive * Then they rationalize on how I died * The manner how I cried * And my pain turned into tears * My isolation turned into years * And the truth lives on unknown * I remain alone * The place i dwell is dark * And I died from a broken heart *

Life never ends when love never begins * I cannot pretend that you're my friend * And while this love affair never did start * I still died from a broken heart * And the Lords of all creation * Will frown down upon my shame * I know that I'm to blame * I set you free * I let it be * I die again today * I walk away *

I lived to die of a broken heart * It wasn't easy * Nobody said it was * To live without feelings * To give in vain * Such a wasted life some would say * Someone who gave their heart away * I did * And that's an unknown fact * She never accepted it * So I couldn't take it back * And so my time did finally come * The moment sure did arrive * Then everyone wanted to rationalize on how I died * Their thoughts became their words * Then the theory was blown apart * The truth be known I was all alone * And I died from a broken heart *

Touch

TOUCH - Written by Carroll Bryant 

What is it that turns you on?

(Touch, touch)

What is it that you're afraid it's gone?

It's the touch

I keep trying my best to keep you satisfied

(Touch, touch)

I'm doing all that I can to keep this love alive

With a touch

Don't keep running away

I need you so much 

I don't know what else I can say

So I just use the touch 

What the hell do you want from me?

(Touch, touch)

Why can't you and I just agree

To use the touch

I'm doing the best that I can 

(Touch, touch) 

You know I'm a one woman man

Who needs your touch 

Don't keep turning your eyes

I need them so much

Everyday and every night 

I need your touch 

What is it that turns you on?

Who is it that makes you crazy with a touch?

Who is it that turns you on?

What is it that makes you blush so much

With a touch to a touch and a touch 

Don't keep running away

I need you too much 

I don't know what else I can say

So I just use the touch

(Touch, touch)

West Virginia Mountains

WEST VIRGINIA MOUNTAINS - Written by Carroll Bryant

He came from the valley's of southern California * He left his way of life * Becoming his own man * He traveled east to the state of West Virginia * With a pocketful of dreams * And shoes filled with that California sand * He saw her face * That look in her eyes * They wrote their own story under God's clear blue sky * And then they both disappeared into the West Virginia mountains * All it took was a risk and the fate of a fateful kiss * And they both disappeared into the West Virginia mountains * Never to be seen or heard from again *And then a legend grew * And everybody knew * What would you give for a love that grows fonder? * Ever so close to a place over yonder *

He came from the streets of New York City * He left his way of life * Becoming his own man * He traveled down a road that led to West Virginia * With a pocketful of dreams * And a heart that was filled with big city hopes * He saw her face * They smiled in frozen time * Touched to be recognized under God's clear blue sky * And they both disappeared into the West Virginia mountains * All it took was a risk and the fate of a fateful kiss * And they both disappeared into the West Virginia mountains * Never to be seen or heard from again * And then another legend grew * And everybody knew * The stories that end in love's happiness *  What would you give for a love that grows fonder? * Ever so close to a place over yonder *

And love always disappears into the West Virginia mountains * Love is so dear and close to the heart * Love always disappears into the West Virginia mountains * Take me from here * Somewhere far away *  What would you give for a love that grows fonder? * Ever so close to a place over yonder * A place where legends grow * And maybe God is there *

Light Of My Heart

LIGHT OF MY HEART - Written by Carroll Bryant 

People want to know what the light coming from my body is 

They say they can see it for miles and miles 

It's just the feeling that I carry inside 

A love that I will never hide 

And it's written all over my face because all I got are smiles 

It's just the light of my heart that's shinning through

It's just the love that I feel for you

Over and over I can feel it in my soul 

It's just the light of my heart that's shinning through 

It's just the love that I feel for you

You're the greatest thing to ever happen to me 

Please, don't you ever let me go

I walk around town with a gleam in my eyes and feeling good

Who cares if everyone else sees it and is jealous?

When you know in your soul 

That you are good to go 

Bouncing off the walls all day and laughing at them all 

It's just the light of my heart that's shinning through

It's just the love that I feel for you

Over and over I can feel it in my soul 

It's just the light of my heart that's shinning through 

It's just the love that I feel for you

You're the greatest thing to ever happen to me 

Please, don't you ever let me go

I could live like this forever 

And maybe with you, I shall 

What would be so wrong in being together?

Better to be lovers than just sticking with to be pals

People want to know what the light coming from my body is 

They say they can see it for miles and miles

It's just the light of my heart that's shinning through

It's just the love that I feel for you

Over and over I can feel it in my soul 

It's just the light of my heart that's shinning through 

It's just the love that I feel for you

You're the greatest thing to ever happen to me 

Please, don't you ever let me go

Angel Go Away

ANGEL GO AWAY - Written by Carroll Bryant 

Early in the morning dawn 

I saw the light of love from heaven 

Don't know why it matters to me

Nothing matters that is not true 

Afternoon comes and goes 

Midnight madness is approaching 

That's when the stars come out

To shine down on girls like you 

Angel go away

Got nothing more to say to you

Angel go away

You're too close and much too shrewd 

Angel go away

My pretty little angel 

What you did to me my dear

I never would have seen it coming 

You took my heart and fed my fears

Then you sent my emotions running 

You broke my world into two

At the time I placed the blame

You're too good at what you do

Hate will be thy name 

Angel go away

Got nothing more to say to you

Angel go away

You're too close and make me blue 

Angel go away

My pretty little angel 

Strangers in the night 

It's the best way to describe our relation

Two chickens in a fight 

It's the best way to hand out consolation

You never cared for me

I only longed for you

You refused to see

And I was such a fool 

Such a tool

Such a fool

Angel go away

Got nothing more to say to you

Angel go away

You're too close and much too shrewd 

Angel go away

Sunset Beach

Sunset Beach - Written by Carroll Bryant 

I remember summer nights made of love * Holding your hand * A dream just too good to be true * Come September * The wild winds blow too hard to understand what happened to me * And you * Somehow the time found a way to escape our grasp * Goodbye to memories * Goodbye to Sunset Beach * Now it's just another place to be * Send a kiss for the night * Send a kiss for the good times * Send a kiss for the season * A kiss for a smile * Sandcastles crumble at our feet * Standing on the edge of Sunset Beach * There isn't a finer place to be *

Time flies when you're bored * Winter time is creeping in * Bottle of whiskey in my hand * A dream just too good to share * The breeze refuses to negotiate * I will never understand why I fabricate our love affair * Life don't care * Somehow our hearts melted away * On Sunset Beach * Now it's just another place to be * Send a kiss for the moon * Send a kiss for the month of June * Send a kiss for another reason * A kiss for a while * Sandcastles wash away and out to sea * Swimming in a fog on Sunset Beach * There isn't a worse place to be *

I tried to kill myself * But my finger wasn't loaded * The joke simply exploded into thin air * Life doesn't care * I tried to drown out all my fears * By crying a million tears * My screams all went away * In vain * Inside the day * They escaped * More thoughts filled my brain *

Tempers flare * Handshakes and tans * People stare * We made a scene most everyday * Couldn't make our love partake * In talks of peace * You were always giving me grief * I was pushing limits to your style * Nothing left to smile about I know * But I still wanted you * You still wanted me too * I find it hard to breathe * Sunset Beach went crazy all the while * Now it's just another place to be * Send a kiss for the night * Send a kiss for the good times * Send a kiss for the season * A kiss for a smile * Sandcastles crumble at our feet * Standing on the edge of Sunset Beach * There isn't a finer place to be *

Poison Love

POISON LOVE - Written by Carroll Bryant 

I was feeling lost and lonely 

You went away without a tear 

I thought I was your one and only 

I look around now and you're just not here 

I was touched by your vile emotions 

You were everything that everything could be 

My love for you was as deep as the ocean 

And in your eyes girl, the future was there to see

But you clearly gave to me 

Poison love 

That's what you fed me 

Pouring my heart out while lying on the floor

Poison love

Nothing can save me 

Bleeding out and dying for evermore 

Love is to be special and oh, so much tender

Sensitivity was my specialty 

The danger you brought was so incoherent 

I was a blind fool because I refused to see

That clearly you gave to me 

Poison love

That's what you fed me 

Pouring my heart out while lying on the floor

Poison love

Nothing can save me 

Bleeding out and dying for evermore

This is such a sad goodbye

Crying my eyes out all through the night 

I look all around the room 

Nothing but your doom

Nothing but my gloom 

No one can ever say why

There's nothing you can explain

No umbrella for the rain

Just do us all a favor and stay the hell away 

You were everything that everything could be 

I just can't figure out why you thought that you had to leave

I was a blind fool because I refused to see

That clearly you gave to me 

Poison love

That's what you fed me 

Pouring my heart out while lying on the floor

Poison love

Nothing can save me 

Bleeding out and dying for evermore

Poison love

That can't escape me

Pouring my heart out while walking a tight line 

Poison love

One that would break me

Clearly forsake me

Bleeding out and dying but try as I might 

I still cry 

Whatcha Gonna Do?

WATCHA GONNA DO? - Written by Carroll Bryant 

Whatcha gonna say?

Whatcha gonna do?

You've been watching me

I've been watching you 

Are you gonna stay?

Are we really through?

Whatcha gonna do? 

Love is the power

Love is the need for every human being

Symbols of the soul 

We give to each other the diamond ring 

It's only money

The meaning of the heart you cannot buy

Love is the power supreme 

Whatcha gonna say?

Whatcha gonna do?

You've been watching me

I've been watching you 

Are you gonna stay?

Are we really through?

Whatcha gonna do? 

Love is the treasure 

Love is the key for every human being 

Games of the mankind

We play with each other while messing with the mind

We're only material 

The presence of our soul we cannot see 

Love is the endless dream 

Whatcha gonna say?

Whatcha gonna do?

You've been watching me

I've been watching you 

Are you gonna stay?

Are we really through?

Whatcha gonna do? 

Now I know exactly what it takes 

To make a relationship last

Now I know exactly what it means 

To take it to another level 

Love is to all things all great 

Whatcha gonna do? 

No More Games

NO MORE GAMES - Written by Carroll Bryant 

Did you have fun?

Well, I hope you did 

Because this pain was on me, baby

So don't forget 

I learned my lesson well

I learned it well from you 

I don't think that you can tell 

I've had enough of love untrue 

No more games for the kid 

No more games because I hate to play

No more games with this shit

No more games because I hate to play

No more games 

You got a wicked smile 

And such deceptive eyes 

And honey, all the while 

I fell for all of your lies

But that's okay, yeah 

Baby, that is just fine 

I like the rain 

I play in it all of the time

No more games for the kid 

No more games because I hate to play

No more games with this shit

No more games because I hate to play

No more games 

You can't fix stupid or so they say 

But here I am still falling today 

In love you can't choose who steals your heart

You have to hope for the best 

Feeling so powerless 

I want to run so why do I stand and stay? 

Did you have fun?

Well, I hope you did 

Because this pain was on me, baby

So don't forget 

I learned my lesson well

I learned it well from you 

I don't think that you can tell 

I've had enough of playing the fool

No more games for the kid 

No more games because I hate to play

No more games with this shit

No more games because I hate to play

No more games 

Falling

FALLING - Written by Carroll Bryant 

Scattered brain

I'm going insane 

Yeah, yeah, thinking of you

Turn out the light 

You're my dream at night 

Yeah, yeah, baby what can I do?

I'm falling

Can't you hear my heart calling?

Falling

Are you just stalling for time?

I'm falling

Falling right out of my mind 

Crossing wires

My soul is on fire

Yeah, yeah, thinking of you 

It's a beautiful day

When I see your face 

Yeah, yeah, baby how about you?

I'm falling

Can't you hear my heart calling?

Falling

Are you just stalling for time?

I'm falling

Falling right out of my mind

Walking around town

Going nowhere special

My thoughts still wander to far away places 

Knowing damn well that I need to see your smile

Realizing that happiness exists 

In the form of a sweet kiss from your lips 

Scattered brain

I'm going insane 

Yeah, yeah, thinking of you

Turn out the light 

You're my dream at night 

Yeah, yeah, baby what can I do?

I'm falling

Can't you hear my heart calling?

Falling

Are you just stalling for time?

I'm falling

Can't you hear my love calling? 

Falling

Baby, I'm going blind

I'm falling

Falling right out of my mind 

Not Another Lover

NOT ANOTHER LOVER - Written by Carroll Bryant 

Tracks in the sand of my heart 

They lead up to my door

Love always tears me apart 

Just don't know what it's all for 

Opened the window to a friend

She just dropped by to kill some time

Things like this just never ends

Had to love you off my mind 

Oh no, not another lover

Oh no, not another girl

Oh no, I got too many others 

I don't need anymore

Hearts that never seem to mend

The hurt always seems to be there 

Fools like me who always pretend

That their girl still truly cares

I don't know where to go 

The pain continues to follow me 

Down every open road that I travel

That old fashioned emotion won't set me free 

Oh no, not another lover

Oh no, not another girl

Oh no, I got too many others 

I don't need anymore

I lay there alone when she leaves

Feeling worse than I did before

In love there is no true relief 

Just a gust of wind when it blows 

Passion got the best of me again 

Oh no, not another lover

Oh no, not another girl

Oh no, I got too many others 

I don't need anymore

You're The Prettiest Lady

YOU'RE THE PRETTIEST LADY - Written by Carroll Bryant 

She walked into the barroom 

I saw her walk right through the door 

I watched her sway her body as she walked across the floor

She sat down next to me and ordered herself a drink

And I said "Lady would you like to know exactly what I think?"

I think you're the prettiest lady I've seen in here

When you finish with that drink you have

Would you let me buy you a beer?

I've been waiting for a girl like you for so long 

With this instant love I feel inside

How can it be wrong?

She looked at me real funny 

She knew I had no money

But she said I had a handsome smile along with a handsome face 

We talked into the morning

We talked about everything

Neither one of us knew exactly what this love would bring 

But I think you're the prettiest lady I've seen in here 

When you finish with that drink you have

Would you let me buy you a beer?

I've been waiting for a girl like you for so long 

With this instant love I feel inside

How can it be wrong?

Love can be found in an old run down saloon

I can't deny though that sometimes love don't bloom

Sooner or later 

The odds fall in your favor 

Tonight was just my night and how I thank my moon

She walked into the barroom 

I saw her walk right through the door 

I watched her sway her body as she walked across the floor

She sat down next to me and ordered herself a drink

And I said "Lady would you like to know exactly what I think?"

I think you're the prettiest lady I've seen in here

When you finish with that drink you have

Would you let me buy you a beer?

I've been waiting for a girl like you for so long 

With this instant love I feel inside

How can it be wrong?

A Heartbeat Away

A HEARTBEAT AWAY - Written by Carroll Bryant 

I stand here all alone * In the love that is my own * Never in my life * Has it ever felt so cold * I stand before your eyes * In the love that tells me lies * Holding back my heart * And with that thought I realize * That there's nothing I can do * There's nothing I can say * This love I feel for you is just a heartbeat away * From breaking into two * And tear me all apart * A love that just won't end * A love that just won't start * And there's nothing I can do *

I stand here in my doubt * In the love that is my cloud * Never in my life * Has it ever felt so wild * I stand before your grace * In the love that is your face * Holding back the tears * With my thoughts so out of place * And there's nothing I can do * There's nothing I can say * All I need from you * Is just a heartbeat away * And it breaks my soul in two * And it rips my world apart * A love that just won't end * A love that just won't start * And there's nothing I can do *

How long to stand here, and be your biggest fool? * Born to live in loneliness * And thinking about you * The world continues turning * My heart continues yearning * For you * Only for you * And there's nothing I can do * There's nothing I can say * This love I feel for you * Is just a heartbeat away * From breaking into two * And tear me all apart * A love that just won't end * A love that just won't start * And there's nothing I can do * No, there's nothing I can do * There's nothing I can do * But to stay in love with you *

   

The Hurt

THE HURT - Written by Carroll Bryant 

I looked into her eyes

And I thought that it was lust

But I guess I really did fall in love

Because when the morning came

And I woke up alone

Oh, the hurt was hurting too much

First time for lovers

Last time for friends

And I wonder if it’s ever gonna end

Because I’ll never forget

How our love making was

And the hurt is never anybody’s friend

The hurt really hurts when it hurts like it does

The pain feels like it will never go away

And I was the one who was to never fall in love

But I did and now I’m hurting today

I got out of bed

And walked to the window

And gazed upon a world moving fast

Shaking my head

As I turn to walk away

I wonder, how long will this last?

The hurt really hurts when it hurts like it does

The pain feels like it will never go away

And I was the one who was to never fall in love

But I did and now I’m hurting today

Love is never anything you can plan for

When it happens, it happens in the blink of a blood shot eye

Love is never anything a broken man can adore

When it happens, he’s left to wonder why

I looked into her eyes

And I thought that it was lust

But I guess I really did fall in love

Because when the morning came

And I woke up alone

Oh, the hurt was hurting too much

The hurt really hurts when it hurts like it does

The pain feels like it will never go away

And I was the one who was to never fall in love

But I did and now I’m hurting today

And I was the one who was to never fall in love

But I did … and now I’m hurting today

Some One Still Loves You (Song) Carroll Bryant

My new song. I hope you enjoy. 

It's A Hard Life

IT'S A HARD LIFE Written by Carroll Bryant 

Nothing comes easy 

You better get it together 

It's a scratch and bite

You got to live here forever

Work hard everyday

You better make that money

Never take a break 

Isn't that funny?

It's a hard life

A hard life, yes it is 

It's a hard life

A hard life, yes it is 

Everything is crazy

What you going through?

Forget about it maybe 

What you gonna do? 

Living day to day, yeah 

You think you would have dreams 

Making bad decisions 

Now you know what that brings 

It's a hard life

A hard life, yes it is 

It's a hard life

A hard life, yes it is

You say you're going to figure it out

But drinking isn't any kind of answer

You say you know what it's about

But everyday that passes by passes like a cancer 

You say you're working it out

Yeah, you better try

You know this kind of life can bury you

And you're too tough to cry

You hate the wait and sacrifice 

Nothing comes easy

When you're working with the crew

Sweat all over your body 

Happy days are so few 

You got to get it together 

Can you even try?

You're gonna be here forever 

Until the dirty day you die 

It's a hard life

A hard life, yes it is 

It's a hard life

A hard life, yes it is 

It's a hard life

A hard life, yes it is 

It's a hard life

A hard life, yes it is 

Soul

SOUL - Written by Carroll Bryant 

I had another dream last night * Once again we became man and wife * And in the eye of this hurricane of love * We were protected from demise * And we were there to share the rest of our lives * Then fade away * Into another place and time *

Inside the seed grows a flower with your name * Once again we know that things are not the same * Everything changes * Like the touch of your hand * We are protected * By the heart of contraband * The flower grows *

I want my soul to be your soul * I want your soul to be my soul * I want this fantasy * Of you and me * To grow * Like the flower that I know * I want this fantasy to get the best of me * I want your soul to be my soul * I want my soul to be your soul * I don't want this feeling to ever end *

I saw our children playing out in the backyard * We had a house of love * We had two fancy hearts * And in the middle of this storm * Our souls were kept so warm * We couldn't let it go * And we were there to share the rest of our lives * We found the truth of forever looking in each others eyes * And we both know * We can't let go *

I want my soul to be your soul * I want your soul to be my soul * I want this fantasy * Of you and me * To grow * Like the flower that I know * I want this fantasy to get the best of me * I want your soul to be my soul * I want my soul to be your soul * I don't want this feeling to ever end *

Happy is a place where the light of love shines through * It shines brighter than any destiny * I have this precious dream * Of you and me * It gets the best of me * There is a hand I hold * Of thoughts with hope * And in this place of refuge * You give me reason to believe *

Never in a moment of rest * Never in a moment of peace * Never in a whisper shall I ever let you go * And in my heart * This power grows * I want your soul to be my soul * I want my soul to be your soul * I want fantasy to be reality * I don't want this imaginary love come to a close *

I want my soul to be your soul * I want your soul to be my soul * I want this fantasy * Of you and me * To grow * Like the flower that I know * I want this fantasy to get the best of me * I want your soul to be my soul * I want my soul to be your soul * I don't want this feeling to ever end *

Nothing Ever Turns Out Right

NOTHING EVER TURNS OUT RIGHT - Written by Carroll Bryant 

I tried to write a song

It took me all night long

I just couldn't get the words out of my mind 

I don't love you anymore 

So what was it all for?

All I wanted to do was write down a couple of lines 

Baby, we are both too stubborn

Why did we ever try to reunite?

One of these days one of us will have to learn

That nothing ever turns out right 

So I dug down deep inside 

And yes, I even cried 

When I discovered that the feeling was no longer there 

All out of love 

Now it hurts too much 

But just because I'm all out of love doesn't mean that I don't care 

Baby, we are both too stubborn

Why did we ever try to reunite?

One of these days one of us will have to learn

That nothing ever turns out right 

The things you do and the things you say

Still matter to me 

But it appears that we have drifted away

We are many worlds apart 

And it's breaking both of our hearts 

Now is the time it stops

I want so much to remain your friend 

Baby, we are both too stubborn

Why did we ever try to reunite?

One of these days one of us will have to learn

That nothing ever turns out right

Nothing

Absolutely nothing

Nothing ever turns out right

A Brand New Me

A BRAND NEW ME - Written by Carroll Bryant 

People keep on telling me that somehow I've changed

Hey, it's nothing new you see

Life is just that way 

Maybe they don't understand I'm gonna be who I want to be 

Maybe they can't just accept 

That they're looking at a brand new me 

Problems, problems, sure I've got them

Everybody's got a few

I don't let them get to me anymore 

My worrying days are through 

Look real closely in my eyes and tell me what you see

Nine times out of ten you'll say you're looking at a brand new me

A brand new me is what you see

And what you see is a brand new me

I'm just trying to change along with the times 

I just like being free

I'm just trying to be me 

And I'm having one hell of a time 

Every now and then somebody gives it a try

To shake and bake my patience 

To fire up my other side 

Maybe they can't deal so well to everything fully

To the new person I want to become 

To the new guy that is me 

A brand new me is what you see

And what you see is a brand new me

I'm just trying to change along with the times 

I just like being free

I'm just trying to be me 

And I'm having one hell of a time 

A brand new me is what you see

And what you see is a brand new me

And I'm having one hell of a good time

Mother Nature (Is Going To Win)

MOTHER NATURE (IS GOING TO WIN) - Written by Carroll Bryant

You’re trying too hard to play it safe

You’re playing it cool

That’s the rule

But my charms you can’t resist

They make you drool

They’re making you a fool

Now don’t you think that I don’t know, girl?

You always got me on your mind

I know for a matter of fact, girl

The moment is now, girl

For you and me to have a really good time together

Mother Nature is going to win

I can feel the passion setting in

We can be lovers unless you want to pretend

That we’re only friends

But in the end

Mother Nature is going to win

Your eyes say how much you want me

You like to misbehave

You want to be my slave

But my mind is your debauchery

Don’t dig up the grave

Don’t go looking for pain

Yes I know what you might think, girl

I always have you in my sights

Things get lost inside a blink, girl

The magic is here, girl

For you and me to really make the morning sun rise

Mother Nature is going to win

I can feel the passion setting in

We can be lovers unless you want to pretend

That we’re only friends

But in the end

Mother Nature is going to win

Now don’t you think that I don’t know, girl?

You always got me on your mind

I know for a matter of fact, girl

The moment is now, girl

For you and me to have a really good time together

Mother Nature is going to win

I can feel the passion setting in

We can be lovers unless you want to pretend

That we’re only friends

But in the end

Mother Nature is going to win

My Lovers Angel

MY LOVERS ANGEL - Written by Carroll Bryant 

There doesn't seem to be any peace * For the wicked and the weak * Lost inside of their visions * Of what they see * And make believe * My lovers angel * Appeared from the loneliest sky * Blessed me with such a vengeance * And I didn't even want to ask why * My lovers angel * Made such sweet love to me * Led me to believe in * Love for all eternity * My lovers angel *

If you give me one more chance * To explain and even try to convince you * That I'm not the one here to blame * And wishes will easily come true * Happy are moments * When time is too bored to surrender * The light will shine down upon you * Like golden silk or your golden hair * My lovers angel * Appeared from a listless of skies * Cursed me with some kind of anger * And my only wish was to die * My lovers angel * Made such sweet love to me * Led me to believe in * Love for all who would seek it * My lovers angel *

I drink a toast for the sweet taste * Of sorrow and sweet victory * How in the hell was I too know * And it all really came back * And it all really came back to spill all over me *

There doesn't seem to be any peace * For the wicked and the weak * Lost in their indecision * Of what they think and sometimes believe * My lovers angel * Appeared from above all the sky * Kissed me like an Eagle would * And I didn't even know how to fly * My lovers angel * Made such sweet love to me * Led me to believe in * Love for all eternity * My lovers angel *   

Dreaming My Dream

DREAMING MY DREAM - Written by Carroll Bryant

There was a time

When I thought that the world was mine

And all of the girls put together

Would never come close to my heart

Now here today

As I’m holding you softly this way

And all of the words that were spoken

A sentence with no place to start

Who’s dreaming my dream?

Are you really right here with me?

Touching my skin

Letting me in

I find it so hard to believe

You’re dreaming with me

You’re the light that I thought I could see

Even in the darkest of nights

I felt you right here with me

I’m dreaming my dream

Inside of our kiss

The fragrance of love will insist

That we to be so close together

I can’t feel it when we are apart

Now here to stay

As I’m trying to find words to say

In the hopes that we last forever

And heaven will be where we are

Who’s dreaming my dream?

Are you really right here with me?

Touching my skin

Letting me in

I find it so hard to believe

You’re dreaming with me

You’re the light that I thought I could see

Even in the darkest of nights

I felt you right here with me

I’m dreaming my dream

I can’t let go the thoughts of you

They cling to the sound of my soul

I bow before the grace of love

And you are the power

You are the flower

And you are the power of it all

You’re the salt of the earth

You’re the fire of all I am worth

Love will be strong

Our hearts hold the key

Love is the stars of eternity

Shinning down warmly upon both you and me

There was a time

When I thought that the world was unkind

And all of the hurt put together

Would never come close to my heart

Now here today

As I’m holding you softly this way

And all of the words that were spoken

A sentence with no place to start

Who’s dreaming my dream?

Are you really right here with me?

Touching my skin

Letting me in

I find it so hard to believe

You’re dreaming with me

You’re the light that I thought I could see

Even in the darkest of nights

I felt you right here with me

I’m dreaming my dream

Just dreaming my dream
