I Do (Cherish You)

All I am, all I'll be,
Everything in this world,
All that I'll ever be
Is in your eyes
Shining at me.

When you smile, I can feel
All my passions unfolding.
Your hand brushed mine,
And a thousand sensations
Seduce me, 'cause I do

I do cherish you.
For the rest of my life
You don't have to think twice.
I will love you still
From the depths of my soul.
It's beyond my control.
I've waited so long to say this to you.
If you're asking do I love you this much,
I do.

In my world before you,
I lived outside my emotions.
Didn't know where I was going
'Til that day I found you.

How you opened my life
To a new paradise.
In a world torn by change
Still with all my heart
'Till my dying day.

I do cherish you.
For the rest of my life
You don't have to think twice.
I will love you still
From the depths of my soul.
It's beyond my control.
I've waited so long to say this to you.
If you're asking do I love you this much,
I do.

Don't Turn Around

If you wanna leave,
I won't beg you to stay.
And if you gotta go, darling,
Maybe it's better that way.
I'm gonna be strong.
I'm gonna do fine.
Don't worry about this heart of mine.
Just walk out that door.
Yea, see if I care.
Go on, and go now, but

Don't turn around
'Cause you're gonna see my heart breaking.

Don't turn around.
I don't want you seeing me cry.
Just walk away.
It's tearing me apart
That you're leaving.
I'm letting you go,
But I won't let you know.

I won't miss your arms around me
Holding me tight.
If you ever think about me,
Just know that I'll be alright.
I'm gonna be strong.
I'm gonna do fine.
Don't worry about this heart of mine.
I know I'll survive.
Sure I'll make it through.
And I'll even learn to live without you.

Don't turn around
'Cause you're gonna see my heart breaking.
Don't turn around.
I don't want you seeing me cry.
Just walk away.
It's tearing me apart
That you're leaving.
I'm letting you go,
But I won't let you know.

I wish I could scream out loud
That I love you.
I wish I could say to you -
Don't go.

As he walks away, he feels the pain.
Getting strong.
People in your life,
They don't know what's going on.
Too proud to turn around. He's gone.

Don't turn around
'Cause you're gonna see my heart breaking.

Don't turn around.
I don't want you seeing me cry.
Just walk away.
It's tearing me apart
That you're leaving.
I'm letting you go,
But I won't let you know.

Making Love Out of Nothing At All

I know just how to whisper,
And I know just how to cry.
I know just where to find the answers,
And I know just how to die.

I know just how to fake it,
And I know just how to scheme.
I know just when to face the truth,
And then I know just when to dream.

And I know just where to touch you,
And I know just what to prove.
I know when to pull you closer,
And I know when to let you loose.

And I know the night is fading,
And I know the times gonna fly.
And I'm never gonna tell you
Everything I gotta tell you,
But I know I gotta give it a try.

And I know the roads to riches,
And I know the ways to fame.
I know all the rules,
And I know how to break 'em.
And I always know the name of the game.

But I don't know how to leave you,
And I'll never let you fall.
And I don't know how you do it,
Making love out of nothing at all.

Out of nothing at all, out of nothing at all.
Out of nothing at all, out of nothing at all.
Out of nothing at all.
Making love out of nothing at all.

Every time I see you, all the rays of the sun
Are streaming through the waves of your hair.
And every star in the sky is taking aim at your eyes
Like a spotlight.

The beating of my heart is a drum, and it's lost,
And it's looking for a rhythm like you.
You can take the darkness from the pit of the night,
And turn into a beacon burning endlessly bright.

I've gotta follow it 'cause everything I know
Well, it's nothing till I give it to you.

I can make the runner stumble.
I can make the final block.
And I can make every tackle at the sound of the whistle,
And I can make the stadiums rock.

And I can make tonight forever,
Or I can make it disappear by the dawn.
And I can make you every promise that has ever been made.
I can make all your demons be gone.

But I'm never gonna make it without you.
Do you really wanna see me crawl?
And I'm never gonna make it like you do -
Making love out of nothing at all.

Out of nothing at all, out of nothing at all.
Out of nothing at all, out of nothing at all.
Out of nothing at all, out of nothing at all.
Out of nothing at all.

You Light Up My Life

So many nights, I'd sit by my window,
Waiting for someone to sing me his song.
So many dreams, I kept deep inside me,
Alone in the dark, but now you've come along.

And you light up my life,
You give me hope, to carry on.
You light up my days
And fill my nights with song.

Rollin' at sea, adrift on the waters
Could it be finally, I'm turning for home
Finally a chance to say, "Hey, I Love You"
Never again to be all alone.

And you light up my life,
You give me hope, to carry on.
You light up my days
And fill my nights with song.

You, You light up my life
You give me hope to carry on
You light up my days
And fill my nights with song

It can't be wrong, when it feels so right
'Cause you, you light up my life.

Dust In The Wind

I close my eyes
Only for a moment and the moment’s gone
All my dreams
Pass before my eyes, a curiosity
Dust in the wind
All they are is dust in the wind
