For Someone Special

[Andreus]

"Mercy"
By Melissa Etheridge

Well I have lived ten years plus ten
And ten and ten again
I have seen too much to pretend
And then you wanted to come in
I have survived all of the lies
They made me wise
The locks and walls and the peace it buys
Still when I look into your eyes
It's a surprise when you say

It's gonna be alright
It's gonna be okay
Just hold on tight
let it all go away

What do you want from me
Mercy, mercy baby
What do you want from me

well I plead Mercy, mercy baby
I do not know what this all means
It's been awhile
Since I've been stylin' in
Just my jacket and my jeans

It hurts to walk
It hurts to talk
It hurts to think about it
Shout about it
Could I be sure without a doubt
That you could never live without

It's gonna be alright
It's gonna be okay
Just hold on tight
let it all go away
Mercy baby
What do you want from me
Mercy, mercy, mercy baby
What do you want from me

It's gonna be alright
It's gonna be okay
Just hold on tight
let it all go away
I want to fall in you
Crawl in you
Surrender
All in you now

Could I be sure in you
Pure in you
Finding the cure in you
Now I plead
Have mercy on me

Now I am kneeling at the altar
In the temple of your eyes
And I am asking for a miracle
I have been too long paralyzed when you say

Get up
Stand up
Climb the rope of hope
and open up again

All the peace you say is promised me
seems too much to comprehend

It's gonna be alright
It's gonna be okay
Just hold on tight
let it all go away
Mercy baby
What do you want from me
Mercy, mercy baby
what Can this girl believe

It's gonna be alright
It's gonna be okay
Honey just hold on tight
And I'll make it all go away
Hold on

It's gonna be alright
Mercy darling
Mercy
Let it all go away

Come to my window
Crawl inside, wait by the light
Of the moon
Come to my window
Ill be home soon

I would dial the numbers
Just to listen to your breath
I would stand inside my hell
And hold the hand of death
You dont know how far Id go
To ease this precious ache
You dont know how much Id give
Or how much I can take

Just to reach you
Just to reach you
Just to reach you

Come to my window
Crawl inside, wait by the light
Of the moon
Come to my window
Ill be home soon

Keeping my eyes open
I cannot afford to sleep
Giving away promises
I know that I cant keep
Nothing fills the blackness
That has seeped into my chest
I need you in my blood
I am forsaking all the rest
Just to reach you
Just to reach you
Oh to reach you

Come to my window
Crawl inside, wait by the light
Of the moon
Come to my window
Ill be home soon

I dont care what they think
I dont care what they say
What do they know about this
Love anyway

Come to my window
Crawl inside, wait by the light
Of the moon
Come to my window
Ill be home soon

Maybe this Time


Maybe this time, I'll be lucky
Maybe this time, he'll stay
Maybe this time
For the first time
Love won't hurry away

He will hold me fast
I'll be home at last
Not a loser anymore
Like the last time
And the time before

Everybody loves a winner
So nobody loved me;
'Lady Peaceful,' 'Lady Happy,'
That's what I long to be
All the odds are in my favor
Something's bound to begin
It's got to happen, happen sometime
Maybe this time I'll win
​

 

[MidnightPrism]

Makes me want to find that one even more!

Another morning, another day in your life
without someone there by you.
You had a dream again last night.
You wonder why the dream just won't come true.

So what ya gonna do.
Walk around with your head hung down.
Maybe that's the reason you've never found the one for you,
so you've got to let your love shine through you eyes, your smile.
You've got to let somebody know how you feel inside your heart.
You'll find, somebody wants to be a part of your life.
And if you just believe and say that's what you're
gonna do, one day love will find it's way to you.
Yes it will. One day love will find it's way to you.

Midnight Radio


Rain
falls
hard
Burns dry
A dream
Or a song
That hits you so hard
Filling you up
And suddenly gone

Breath
Feel
Love
Give Free
Know in you soul
Like your blood knows the way
From you heart to your brain
Know that you're whole

And you're shining
Like the brightest star
A transmission
On the midnight radio
And you're spinning
Like a 45
Ballerina
Dancing to your rock and roll

Here's to Patti
And Tina
And Yoko
Aretha
And Nona
And Nico
And me

And all the strange rock and rollers
You know you're doing all right
So hold on to each other
You gotta hold on tonight

And you're shining
Like the brightest stars
A transmission
On the midnight radio

And you're spinning
Your new 45's
All the misfits and the losers
Yeah, you know you're rock and rollers
Spinning to your rock and roll

Lift up your hands
​

The night was mighty dark so you could hardly see
For the moon refused to shine
Couple sittin' underneath the willow tree
For love they'd pine

Little maid was kinda 'fraid of darkness
So she said, I guess I'll go
Boy began to sigh, looked up at the sky
Told the moon his little tale - of woe...

Shine on, shine on harvest moon, up in the sky-y
I ain't had no lovin' since January, February, June or July
Snowtime ain't no ti-ime to stay outdoors and spoon
So shine on, shine on harve-e-est moon

Don't make-a me wait too lo-ong
My love for you is much too strong
I ain't had no, I ain't had no lovin' since
January, February, June or July
When all the skies are grey
I wanna go inside and stay

So light up, oh light up
Fast or slow come past that door, and
Shi-i-i-ine on harvest moon
Gi-ive some love again
I ain't had none since a-Lord knows when
No time, ain't no time to stay outside a-and try to spoon
So shine on, shine on harvest moon
For me, for me and my gal
Pass that light, fair and kind
How much lo-ove will be mine

Harvest moon, come on, come on, come o-o-on...
Shi-ine...

Catch a star if you can
Wish for something special
Let it be me, my love is free
Sing a song to yourself
Think of someone listening
One melody, you're all for me

I'll write a symphony just for you and me
If you let me love you, I'll paint a masterpiece
Just for you to see
If you let me love you, let me love you

Are you ready, are you ready for love
Yes I am
Are you, are you ready, are you ready for love
Yes I am
Are you, are you ready, are you ready for love

You're the one like the sun
Shine your love around me
You'll always be the one for me

Say the word and I'll be there
Loving you forever
Don't let me go
Just say it's so

We'll hear the music ring from the mountain tops
To the valley below us
We'll serenade the world
With a lullaby so the angels will know us
Angels will know us​

You mean so much to me-
and I just wanted
you to know
how very much I care...

You mean so much to me-
you've helped me to find
a special outlook on life
that was hiding
deep inside me,
waiting just for someone like you
to open the door
and set it free

You mean so much to me-
for you've been there,
through the good times and the bad,
drying the tears and
holding back the loneliness-
giving me a friendly shoulder
to lean on
and enough smiles to last a lifetime

You mean so much to me-
and I can't help but feel
as though I owe you so much more
than I can ever repay...
But if there's a way-
any way
to hold and to help,
to provide and to encourage,
to give even a part of what
you have blessed me with,
I will be there for you

And wherever time will take us...
wherever we may be,
I always want you
to remember
how much
you mean to me.
