oasis in the end

so we've been
through days of unfulfillment
through rough winds of endangerment
through storm-drenched dawns

with solid breaths
trying to hold still in the earth's anger
persuading to never give up
fighting, staying alive

for sacrifice is a speck of dust
in a desert vast, undending
seemingly endless
hoplessly desolate

when with a blink
an oasis appears
all the toils and troubles
suddenly fade and disappear

so always hold on
as the winds threaten your trust
and the current leads you away
and the waves drown your hopes

I will be with you
arms opened wide
face concerned
while wishing your will

praying for your perseverance
knowing you will prevail
seeing the eyes of a fighter
who never qiuts on a dream

caught up in an everlasting joy

not really so sure about this feeling
a feeling much higher than any high
undoubtedly I'm feeling a rhapsody
a lightness and a strong conviction
creeping, starting from where my heart beats

slowly it covers my everyday
with thoughts of you that linger
in every time I gaze into reality
that is in a dream that is relived
each moment repeating a smile of yesterday

can this fool be really in such bliss?
what have the heavens brought in front of me?
can i really handle this feeling?
caught up in an everlasting joy

seemingly crazy but isn't that what all fools are?
crazy when love knocks on their door
covered up in passion, waiting to explore
caught up in an everlasting joy

what I have is not enough, I know

like a sorry old coin you don't remember
you dropped under the seat of your car
waiting to be noticed one desperate morning
willing to burn away the time for that moment

frozen there like the unwound clock
sitting by the piles of paper on your desk
staring at you needing to be put to life again
wanting to stretch my arms around once more

just like the dirty old rag you walk on
as you hurrily enter your white front door
every single night you come back home
needing to be cleansed from this misery

because my love falls like the water
flowing from the mountain top
reaching far to touch your soul

and my heart burns just like the shore
as the waves push to kiss the sand
with sweet passion, gently crashing

because my feelings are so real
like the moon that illuminates
even the darkest starless sky

what i have is not enough, i know
but even though its not that much
you can always count on this, my dear
whatever i have, is always for you
and what i feel for you will always be true

seal it with a kiss

what does each new day have in store for me?
is every other minute another mystery?
a new door that is opening
to an unending starlit sky?
waiting for a touch to take away the cold,
sitting here just waiting for your call

is it in your hand that i can depend?
take away all my hurt; take away my sorrow
is it that everlasting smile,
that draws me close to you
and keeps me running back to you?

i want to feel your lips
gently pressing on to mine
seal it with a kiss
that keeps telling me your mine
