After the Storm

Cast a spell on me please.
Turn my pain into pleasure.
As I fall upon my knees
And at last my heart can beat.

Your pain became my pleasure,
But my own is not far gone.
Have I lost my sense of wonder,
Or can you light this dreary path.
You came to me in silence,
And danced upon my mind.
Together we sing the praises
Of eternity's grand plan.

Can my face see itself truly,
Or am I blinded by the light
I cast a shadow through my soul
And it ripped apart my life.

Do you have the answers, or are the
Questions all to hard to find?
I can only offer solace,
But my heart can only lie.
I tripped over my fear and got lost amidst my pain.
It's you that makes this worth it,
It's you that brings the rain.

Cleansing my faults and filling my dreams,
I chase away the demons, on a cloud of loving streams.
And after your rainbow shines and the sky again is clear,
Only then will I find myself, in your arms and free from fear.

Thank You (A song by me!)

Sometimes life gets me down,

I get sad and I wear a frown.

But there's a way to turn in all around...

I look into my heart and there's hope to be found.

When I'm feelin low,

and I just don't know,

what to do...I say Thank You!

When I'm feelin blue,

a little angry too,

I know what to do....I say Thank You!

Thank You for this day, thank You for this life.

Thank You for the chance to make the wrong things right.

Thank You for the person that I strive to be.

Thank You for the gifts that you've given to me.

When I'm feelin low,

and I just don't know,

what to do....I say Thank You!

When I'm feelin blue,

a little angry too,

I know what to do....I say Thank You!

Thank You for the love and Thank You for the light.

Thank you for the chance to see the bright side of life.

Thank you for the Joy I have in my life...

Thank You...oh, Thank You.
