Enough
Beyond the beautiful
spirit that you are
lie the lines in the heavens
that lead to afar
To the place that the first
light of hope rose and grew
into the promise of love
that led me to you
It's not enough to hope you are loved
It's not enough to dream
It's not enough
It's not
Beyond the moment
you think has arrived
remember those moments
of love in your life
The times you forgot
the world sometimes hurts
instead knew together
you'd handle the worst
It's not enough to remember love
It's not enough
It's not
Beyond forever
I'll never let go
to the piece of the heart
that calls your love home
I'll wrap it memories
of gentle silk bliss
like the lingering taste
of our very last kiss
It's just not enough
It's not
Beyond the beautiful
spirit that you are
lie the lines in the heavens
that lead to afar
To the place that the first
light of hope rose and grew
into the promise of love
that led me to you

Memory's Chains
I caught a ribbon of sunshine
tied it in your hair
your radiance
just stole it's glow
Begged a rainbow
drape you in her coat
Life was then for us
so full of hope
Prayed an angel
hold you safe from harm
Paid the Devil
just to keep you warm
Walked a thousand miles,
crossed the deepest sea
Hoping you'd say yes
to eternity
Now I stand here
in the fading light
Of our best days
turned to darkest night
In the moon's glow
I cling to the past
So many memories
too good to last
Yet when I think of you
I just can't let go
In case you're wondering
I still love you so
When you think of us
don't dwell in the dark
Find that special place
where we're not apart
Grab a ribbon of sunshine
tie it in your hair
Remember a young man
who's still smiling there
Hope in the air
heart on his sleeve
One who implored you
down on his knees
"Will you marry me?"
Then ask yourself
"Am I truly free?"
Can you ever be?
tied it in your hair
your radiance
just stole it's glow
Begged a rainbow
drape you in her coat
Life was then for us
so full of hope
Prayed an angel
hold you safe from harm
Paid the Devil
just to keep you warm
Walked a thousand miles,
crossed the deepest sea
Hoping you'd say yes
to eternity
Now I stand here
in the fading light
Of our best days
turned to darkest night
In the moon's glow
I cling to the past
So many memories
too good to last
Yet when I think of you
I just can't let go
In case you're wondering
I still love you so
When you think of us
don't dwell in the dark
Find that special place
where we're not apart
Grab a ribbon of sunshine
tie it in your hair
Remember a young man
who's still smiling there
Hope in the air
heart on his sleeve
One who implored you
down on his knees
"Will you marry me?"
Then ask yourself
"Am I truly free?"
Can you ever be?
