Rob and Roll

A couple of quick notes:
Mrs. P has graciously interpreted my dream. Click here to read all about it and see the pretty pictures.

Also, chapter 11 of Always and Never has been posted.

Pretty much everything makes me think if Rob especially music lyrics and poetry. So a lazy post today of pretty words and pictures.

Love is a force more formidable than any other.
It is invisible - it cannot be seen or measured -
yet it is powerful enough to transform you in
a moment, and offer you more
than any material possession ever could.

-- Barbara De Angelis

You were made perfectly to be loved 

 and surely I have loved you, 

in the idea of you, my whole life long.

-- Elizabeth Barrett Browning

The sound of your voice is music to my ear
So soft, sweet, and clear
The kiss from your lips words can not explain
It takes away my worries and my pain
The caress of your hand sends shivers down my spine
Everyday I thank God that your mine.

The sight of your lovely face takes away all my fears
You're the one I want to love through out the years
For an eternity I want to spend in your arms
Everyday graced by your beauty and your charms.-- David Norman Meece

Because of you
my world is now whole,
Because of you 
love lives in my soul.
Because of you
I have laughter in my eyes,
Because of you 
I am no longer afraid of good-byes.
You are my pillar
my stone of strength,
With me through all seasons
and great times of length.
My love for you is pure
boundless through space and time,
it grows stronger everyday
with the knowledge that you'll always be mine.
At the altar
I will joyously say 'I do',
for I have it all now
and it's all because of you.-- Vishal Narsian




When the rain is blowing in your face  
And the whole world is on your case 
 I would offer you a warm embrace  
To make you feel my love  
When the evening shadows and the stars appear  
And there is no one to dry your tears  
I could hold you for a million years  
To make you feel my love  
I know you haven't made your mind up yet  
But I would never do you wrong  
I've known it from the moment that we met  
No doubt in my mind where you belong  
I'd go hungry, I'd go blind for you  
I'd go crawling down the aisle for you  
There ain't nothing that I wouldn't do  
To make you feel my love  
The storms are raging on a rolling sea  
Down the highway of regret  
The winds of change are blowing wild and free  
But you ain't seen nothing like me yet  
There ain't nothing that I wouldn't do  
Go to the ends of the earth for you  
Make you happy, make your dreams come true  
To make you feel my love 
-- Garth Brooks




I can't stand to fly
I'm not that naive
I'm just out to find
The better part of me

I'm more than a bird...i'm more than a plane
More than some pretty face beside a train
It's not easy to be me

Wish that I could cry
Fall upon my knees
Find a way to lie
About a home I'll never see

It may sound absurd...but don't be naive
Even heroes have the right to bleed
I may be disturbed...but won't you concede
Even heroes have the right to dream
It's not easy to be me

Up, up and away...away from me
It's all right...you can all sleep sound tonight
I'm not crazy...or anything...

I can't stand to fly
I'm not that naive
Men weren't meant to ride
With clouds between their knees

I'm only a man in a silly red sheet
Digging for kryptonite on this one way street
Only a man in a funny red sheet
Looking for special things inside of me
Inside of me
Inside me
Yeah, inside me
Inside of me

I'm only a man
In a funny red sheet
I'm only a man
Looking for a dream

I'm only a man
In a funny red sheet
And it's not easy, hmmm, hmmm, hmmm...
Its not easy to be me 
--Five For Fighting




And I'd give up forever to touch you 
Cause I know that you feel me somehow 
You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be 
And I don't want to go home right now 

And all I can taste is this moment 
And all I can breathe is your life 
Cause sooner or later it's over 
I just don't want to miss you tonight 

And I don't want the world to see me 
Cause I don't think that they'd understand 
When everything's made to be broken 
I just want you to know who I am 

And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming 
Or the moment of truth in your lies 
When everything seems like the movies 
Yeah you bleed just to know your alive 

And I don't want the world to see me 
Cause I don't think that they'd understand 
When everything's made to be broken 
I just want you to know who I am 

I don't want the world to see me 
Cause I don't think that they'd understand 
When everything's made to be broken 
I just want you to know who I am 
--Goo Goo Dolls




It's not everday 
That I find a person quite like you 
Perfect every way 
I finally found the nerve to confess that it's you - that I want 
I don't care if I act a fool 
I would damn near beg for you ! 
Put aside, all my pride 
So don't keep me hanging here 
Cause this girl is falling stupid for you.. 
Stupid for you.. 

The proper thing to do 
Is for me to act like a lady and wait 
For you to make the first move 
But I don't think you're getting the point 
That it's you - that I want 
I don't care if I act a fool 
I would damn near beg for you 
Put aside, all my pride 
So don't keep me waiting here 
Cause this girl is falling stupid for you! 
Oh, oh stupid for you 

Why's it always feel like I am 
Chasing love when nothing's there 
And here I go just making the same mistake... 
I've fallen stupid for you..
