I'm Coming Home- Tom Jones

I’m Coming Home by Tom Jones

Swallow that pride, and reunite.

I'm coming home
To your loving heart
To the one that I was once----
and broke apart

I want you, I need you
But chances are I’m asking now
I must be back to you somehow
So I am coming home to you
for I am nothing without you

May be you found somebody new
But I’m still coming home to you
Please let me stay and forget your pride

Now my world is falling round me
I got nowhere to hide
I want you, I need you
I know it’s true I made you cry
And like a fool I said goodbye

But I am coming home to you
life is nothing without you
Maybe you found somebody new
But I’m still coming home to you

Dream of Me

Dream of Me, a young love, sang by Kirsten Dunst

Let me sleep for when I sleep
I dream that you are here
You’re mine
And all my fears are left behind
I float on air
the nightingale seems gentle lullabies
so let me close my eyes

and sleep a chance to dream
so I can see the face I long touch to kiss
but only dreams can bring me this
So let the moon shine
softly on the boy I long to see
And maybe when he dreams,
he’ll dream of me…

Send in the Clowns

Another beautiful song sang by the great Barbra Streisand

SEND IN THE CLOWNS

Isn’t it rich?
Are a pal?
Me here at last on the ground
you in mid air
Send in the clowns

Isn’t it pleased?
don’t you approve?
One who keeps staring around
One who can’t move
Where are the clowns?
Send in the clowns

Just when when I stopped
opening doors
Finally knowing the one
that I wanted was yours
Making my entrance again with my usual flair
Sure of my lines, but no one is there

Isn’t it rich, isn’t it queer?
Losing my timing this late in my career
Where are the clowns?
Quick send in the clowns
Don’t bother they’re here.

Standing Right Next to Me

This is the feeling when you first fall in love, or thought to be in love.
Following is a beautiful song sang by Karla Bonoff, Standing right Next to Me.

Love is like wind
sometimes it blows your way
and until now
Missed me somehow
but when I turn
I saw you standing there

The sound of your voice
I had no choice
I used to have a wish
One day I’d feel like this
Now I know love exists
Standing right next to me.

Beneath the moon tonight
I see it in your eyes
No more false starts
No broken hearts

I used to to have a wish
One day I’d feel like this
Now I know love exists
Standing right next to me.

Even in the dark
Even when you’re gone
I feel you in my heart
I used to have a wish
One day I’d feel like this
Now I know love exists
Standing right next to me…to me
Standing ight next to me.

People

The biggest killer of a relationship is pride. One hides the need for the person if he/she is hurt, until the gap is widen.Communication breaks down.

People sang by the great Streisand

People people who need people
Are the luckiest people in the world

We’re children needing other children
and yet letting our grown-up pride
Hide all the need inside
acting more like children than children

Lovers are very special people
they’re the luckiest people in the world
with one person one very special person
a feeling deep in your soul
says you are half now you’re whole

no more hunger and thirst
first be a person who needs people
people who need people
are the luckiest people in the world

with one person one very special person
no more hunger and thirst
first be a person who needs people
people who need people
are the luckiest people in the world

As Long as He Needs Me

As Long As He Needs Me, another great song sang by Vikki Carr

Needing and loving go together, but it should not be a game that when the game is over...it is over.

He doesn’t say the things he should
He acts the way he thinks he should
But all the same I’ll play the game
his words

As long as he needs me
I know where I must be
I’ll cling on steadfastly
As long as he needs me

As long as life is long
I’ll love him right or wrong
and somehow I’ll be strong
As long as he needs me

If you are lonely then you will know
when someone needs you
you’ll love him so

I won’t betray his trust
though people say I must
I’ve got to stay through just
As long as he needs me.

My Man

My Man sang by Barbra Streisand

The song says,: “for whatever my man is, I am his, forever more.”
It is selfless. If you love somebody, you will be willing to give your life for him/her.

It is easy to make this declaration in the beginning of the marriage, where one easily forgives because they are still in their bed of roses, honeymoon stage during the first year. But when the problems come that is perceived to be insurmountable, they become challenged, especially from the second year of marriage and on.

However, if the marriage is built on a solid foundation, not simply on physical attraction, but the compatibility of the partner in character, there is a great likelihood that it will succeed. They do not have to be alike, they may be poles apart; but if the partner recognizes this and that they could live with whatever flaws each has, both is committed to the marriage, pray together for any conflict- then God will bless this marriage.


My Man

Oh My man I love him so
He’ll never know
All my life is just a spare
but I don’t care
When he takes me in his arm
the world is bright, all right

What’s the difference if I say
I’ll go away
When I I know I’ll come back
on my knees someday
for whatever my man is, I am his
forever more

Oh my man I love him so
He’ll never know
All my life is just a spare
But I don’t care
when he takes me in his arms
The world is bright all right

what’s the difference if I say
I’ll go away
when I know I’ll come back
on my knees someday

For whatever my man is
I am his, forever more

When Barbra sings, you can feel the love she expresses. Great singer!

You Don't Bring Me Flowers

A couple who does not communicate assumes each other's action as falling out which lead to misunderstanding. If the couple wants to save their marriage, they undergo marriage counseling. But if there is third party involved, no amount of counseling would do them good.

You don't Bring Me Flowers sang by Barbra Streisand & Neil Diamond

You don’t bring me flowers
You don’t sing me love songs

Neil Diamond
You hardly talk to me anymore
when I come through the door
at the end of the day

Barbra
I remember when
you couldn’t wait to love me
Used to hate to leave me
Now after loving me late at night

Neil
well it’s good for you babe
you’re feeling alright

Barbra
Well you just roll over
and turn off the light
and you don’t bring me flowers anymore

Neil
You used to be so natural
talk about forever
but this don’t count anymore
They just lay on the floor
to be sweeped them away

Barbra
Baby I remember
all the things to taught me

I learned how to laugh
and I learned how to cry

When I learned how to laugh
And I learned how to lie
so you think think I could learn
how to tell you goodbye

So you think I could tell you goodbye

You don’t bring me flowers anymore.

Barbra & Neil
Well you think I could learn
how to tell you goodbye

You don’t say you need me
You don’t sing me love songs


You don’t bring me flowers anymore

Woman in Love

When a woman is in love, she'll do anything for her man or vice-versa. Sadly, at times the man may not deserve it.But some stick to the man, this is what you call selfless love.



Woman in Love

Life is a moment in space
when the dream is gone
it’s a lonelier place
I kissed the morning goodbye
But down inside
you know we never know why

The road is narrow and long
when eyes meet eyes
and the feeling is strong
I turn away from the wall
I stumble and fall
But I give you it alI

I am a woman in love
and I do anything
to get you into my world
and hold you within
it's a right I defend
over and over again
what do I do

With you eternally mine
in love there is no measure of time
we planned it all at the start
that You and I
living each other’s part

We may be oceans away
you feel my love
I hear what what you say
The truth is ever a lie
I stumble and fall
but I give you it all

I am a woman in love
and I’ll do anything
To get you into my world
and hold you within
It’s a right I defend
over and over again
what do I do

Oh, Oh, yes a woman in love
and I’m talking to you
I know how you feel
what a woman can do
It’s a right I’ll defend
over and over again

I am a woman in love
and I’ll do anything
to get you into my world
and hold you within
It’s a right I'Il defend
over and aver again.

Windmills of your Mind

Windmills of your Mind from the Thomas Crown Affair

Round like a circle in a spiral
Like a wheel within a wheel
Never ending nor beginning
on an ever spinning wheel

Like a snowball down the mountain
or a carnival balloon
Like a carousel that’s turning
running rings around the moon

Like a clock whose hands are sweeping
Past the minutes of its space
And the world is like an apple
whirling silently in space
Like the circles that you find
in the windmills of your mind

Like a tunnel that you follow
to a tunnel of its own
Down a hollow to a cavern
where the sun has never shown

Like a door that keeps revolving
in a half forgotten dream
Or the ripples from a pebble
someone tosses in a string

Like a clock whose hands are sweeping
past the minutes on its face.
And the world is like an apple
whirling silently on its space
Like the circles that you find
in the windmills of your mind

Keys that jingle in your pocket
Words that jangle in your head
Why did summer go so quickly
was it something that you said

Lovers walk along the shore
and leave their footprints in the sand
It’s the sound of distant drumming
just the fingers of your hands
pictures hanging in a hallway
and the fragments of a song
half remembered names and faces
but to whom do they belong
when you knew that it was over
you were suddenly aware
That the autumn leaves were turning
to the color of her hair

It’s a circle in a spiral
a wheel within a wheel
Never ending nor beginning
in an ending wheel
As the images unwind
like the circles that you find
in the windmills of your mind.

Summer love may be heartbreaking to one partner who really falls in love with the other .

A HOUSE IS NOT A HOME

A HOUSE IS NOT A HOME sang by Dusty Springfield and composed by Burt Bacharach

A chair still a chair
even though though
there’s no one sitting there

But a chair is not a house
And a house is not a home
when there’s no one there to hold you tight
And no one there you can kiss goodnight

A room still a room
even though there's nothing there but gloom
But a room is not a house
and a house is not home
when the the two of us are far apart
and one of us has a broken heart

now and then I call your name
and suddenly your voice appears
but it’s just a crazy game
and when it ends, it ends in tears

Darling have a heart
don’t let one mistake keep us apart
I’m not meant to live alone
turn this house into a home
when I climb the stairs and turn the key
oh please be here still in love with me

I’m not meant to live alone
turn this house into a home
When I climb the stairs and turn the key
Still be there, still in love with me

A house is no longer a home, if the occupant is brokenhearted, and either of the partner is “ nangapitbahay” as they say in Filipino. (gone to another nest)

For Once in my Life

For once in my life
I have someone who needs me
someone I’ve needed so long

For once unfraid I can go
where life leads me
somehow I know I’ll be strong

For once I can touch
what my heart used to dream of
long before I knew
someone warm like you
would make my dreams come true

For once in my life
I won’t let sorrow hurt me
no not like it’s hurt me before

For once I have something
I know won’t dessert me
I’m not alone anymore

For once I can say this is mine
you can’t take it
As I long as I know I have loved
I can make it

For once in my life
I have someone who needs me

Oh, for once I can say
This is mine you can’t take it
As long as I know
I have loved I can make it

For once in my life
I have someone,
someone who needs me

Being rejected by someone you loved is traumatic
You lose your self worth
You can only regain this self worth, by asking God to give you
someone who is worth loving, responsible, and a God-loving person.

There Goes My Heart

There goes my heart
There goes the one I love
There goes the boy
I wasn’t worthy of

There goes my happiness
It couldn’t be
There goes somebody else
in place of me

Goodbye romance
It couldn’t last somehow
I had my chance.
but it’s all over now

I never thought that he
would pass me by
there goes my heart
and here am I

Goodbye my love Goodbye my romance
We couldn’t last Oh, we couldn’t last
You’ve had your chanceYes, I had my chance
But it’s all over now

I never thought that he could pass me by
There goes my heart and here am I

There goes my heart 3x

A young girl in her teens, a naive one
could feel inadequate, feeling not worthy to go into
a relationship because she is not probably given the importance and recognition by her family or the man may be playing the field.

A mother could nurture the growing up needs of the daughter through constant dialogue, give her assurance of her worth by showing unconditional love, and respect.

It Must be Him by Vikki Carr

IT MUST BE HIM

I tell myself what’s done is done
I tell myself don’t be a fool
Play the field have a lot of fun
It’s easy when you play it cool.

I tell myself don’t be a (pls supply the word)
Who cares let him stay away
That’s when the phone rings
And I jump, and as I grab the phone I pray

Let it please be him, Oh dear God
It must be him 2x
Or I shall I die 2x

Oh hello ,hello my dear God
it must be him
But its not him and then I die
That’s when I die

After a while I’m myself again
I pick the pieces off the floor
Put my heart on the shelf again
He’ll never hurt me anymore

I’m not a puppet on the street
I’ll find somebody else someday
That’s when my phone ring
And once again I start to pray

Let it please be him,
It must be him, oh dear God
It must be him2x
Or I shall die 2x

Oh, hello, hello, my dear God
It must be him But it’s not him
And then I die, again I die

Let it please be him Oh dear God
it must be him 2x
Or I shall die.2x

In one's adolescence, especially if it's a first love, the above situation usually happens. One gets highly infatuated with the opposite sex, that it is likened to true love.

But being taken for granted and be hurting, better have a short-lived, passionate relationship rather that a lifetime of heartache. Cut your emotional losses as early as you can!

ALL THE TIME

All the time I thought there’s only me
Crazy in a way that no else could be
I would have given everything I had
To someone who would have said
you’re not so bad

All the time I thought that I was wrong
Wanting to be me, but needing to belong
I would have given everything I own
To someone who would have said
You’re not alone

All the time
All the wasted time
All the years waiting for a sign
To think I have it all

All the time I thought there’s only me
Crazy in a way that no one else could be
I can’t believe that you were somewhere too
Thinking all the time there’s only you.

All the time
All the wasted time
All the years waiting for a sign
To think I had it all

All the time I thought that there was only me
So crazy in a way that no one else could be
I cant believe that you were somewhere too
Thinking all the the time there’s only you

All the time, All the wasted time
All the years just waiting for a sign
To think I have it all, to think you have it all
To think we have it all.

All the time …

When we invest our future with a partner, both should have a commitment in the marriage, not being "somewhere else." Otherwise it is going to be a wasted time.
