Running Away With You




Play both @same time


sea sounds




Running Away With You


I set out on the sea of love
One dark and daunting night
I only wanted to find my love
And kiss and hold him tight.

I didn't know the way to go
To bring him back to me
I only knew that he was there
Across the salty sea.

I sent him letters by mermaids
By dolphins and by birds
But I don't know if he received
Or read a single word.

I wrote him ballads in my heart
And sang them to the sky
But I don't know if he heard my songs
Or my solemn, saddened cry.

So I packed my little boat
And set out on the sea
Trusting angels to help me find
That love so far from me.

And when I find my dear one
I tell you what I'll do
I'll tell him the "next time you run away"
I'm running away with you!

We Are Like Trees



We Are Like Trees


We are like trees
Our roots go deep
Even as our branches are lopped off
By life and love and loss

Our roots go deep
And try to hang on
To every bit of life
Every drop of love

And even when it appears
That we are dead or dying on the outside
The scent of love's rain will revive us
And make us stand up on the inside
And reach out for life again.

Job 14:7

“For there is hope for a tree, If it is cut down, that it will sprout again,
 And that its tender shoots will not cease.




All The Roots Grow Deeper

pieces of music)

Your Eyes Are Like....



 
Ocean Eyes

Your Eyes Are Like....


Your eyes are like the ocean

Deeper than the sea
And swimming there inside their depths
Is where I want to be.

Your eyes are like the heavens

Up above my head
Sending signals to my brain
Demanding to be read.

Your eyes are like soft rainy days

And sometimes like a storm
Blazing up with passion's fire
To make my cold heart, warm.

Your eyes are like twin mirrors

Hear me, yes, it's true
I see me in your eyes of love
And in my eyes, you see you.

Your eyes are my jewels and my gold

My silver shining sea
And joyous I live now I've found you
And your eyes shine on me.
