Canopy of Love

I glanced out thru the window shade
I saw you walk in the morning.
Around the herb and the flower bed,
The rain came down without warning.

Green leaf canopy above
Matching the eyes of the one I love
And while I whisper your name thereof
The sun came out in the morning.

I glance out thru the window shade
I saw you walk in the evening
Around the trees and the garden shed
The shadows came without warning.

Dark sky canopy above
Matching the hair of the one I love
And while I whisper your name thereof
The stars came out in the evening.

That was Before

I was once a naive girl
You were my deciever.
You said our love didn't need expression.
And foolishly I believed ya.

That was before...I learned the truth. That was before...you took away my youth.

I didn't look past your words You were too good at lying. I tried to think the best of you. but finally I stopped trying.

That was before..I found you didn't care. That was before...you took away my prayer. ©2006. Karen Andrews

I Know

I know that we go in two directions but what you can't see /is / my affections. the breezes blow and the trees move their branches, throw me a kiss and I wll lay down my fences (defenses)

CHORUS: You like to debate, I want to keep it simple I don't want more, than i can use. this, world , ever changing In war its rearranging Any good that, / mankind, trys to do.

In words so many.. you speak, its fine and plenty But its more than I can listen to. I look for harmony in the hereinabove. but unlike your kiss its no where to speak of.

CHORUS: You like to debate, I want to keep it simple I don't want more, than i can use. this, world , ever changing In war its rearranging Any good that, / mankind, trys to do.

I Remember Them All

I've been to many places, when I was younger, from belgium to bulgaria. I met alot of people while traveling thru by train and then by car.

CHORUS: One thing that, I could see, was people wanted to believe. Young and old they kept me near, wanting me to love and care. and now many years have come and gone, But I still remember them all.

I saw little children, they followed me, with cheap precious gifts to bear. woman sewed me aprons and cross weaved patterns, and treated me with utmost care.

CHORUS

I saw an old woman bent o'r completely, she could not stand up tall, I couldnt 'keep my eyes from looking at her, It didnt' seem fair at all.

Thru and Thru

Clouds have covered, the sun we've grown to love. There trying to hide us, from the angels far above.

CHORUS: My life'll go, on and on even after I am gone. For I am a part of you, and (your my friend) thru and thru

night sky's clear the clouds have gone on by. check out that shooting star. for its about to die.

CHORUS: My life'll go, on and on even after I am gone. For I am a part of you, and (your my friend) thru and thru

Too Many

All around me trouble. I don't want to see, that' s not what my life was meant for. Time is movin, at a pretty good clip Im thinking you and I will never fit. If we could slip in a quiet place. I would rest awhile with you.

CHORUS too many controls, too many wars too many drugs, Too many souls all goin nowhere and all for what . But I was hopin with you itd be different.

never understood People hurtin others. haven't they ever felt their own pain. But in the song of life, the good and bad you give. will come back for you to relive. And then you'll want to slip in a quiet place But there's no rest for you in site.

I Don't Care What You Think

You've been given your opinions, Its my turn now, and I'm just beginnin Your cynical, and unforgiving... if you dont' change you'll live alone.

CHORUS: I dont' care what you think. I dont' care what you want to hear. go and live the way you want. crush your men till they drop You are self-opinionated You can stop I'm not persuaded. Go away and live your life. I'll live mine, I'm doing fine.

Do you think that I can't speak for myself. I took care of things before you ever known me And what I got is better,... Than anything that money buys.

Bridge

Youv'e got an answer seems for everything. but I dont' see, that you even bring, anything to help another, Who asked you anyway.

CHORUS

Cause my honey he's good and true, He loves me, and I love him too. So go ahead and say your worst, Your not the friend I thought you were,

My World

Come... see my world... of make believe, like New Year's eve. That feeling deep inside, Like candle light on a new bride.

Come... to my world we can pretend, they'll be no end. That feeling in our soul, We'll hold on to that golden bowl.

Come ...in my world Where things held dear, will reappear. Love that goes down deep Like a beauty that is sound asleep.

Welcome to my World, you'll be hypnotised, sensationalized. That hunger in your head, Will take you where you'll be mislead.

Come stay in my world, its all a sham, but who gives a damn, Like fake icing on a cake, it looks real good, but don't partake.

Dont' ever leave my world, The sundrift's high, can't say goodbye Sunshine's falling down rainbow prisms round and round.

COME IN MY WORLD ,... OF MAKE BELIEVE
