All For Love 05:24

She sends prayers to comfort you; her love rides the wind Her heart wants to be with you, to feel you there again You made her a daisy chain, and brushed tears away You said you’d return again, to see another day Wheatfields will sway; water will flow Our lark will sing, sing, and bring you home. She prays in the morning, she prays through the night That you won’t be wounded, given strength to fight He made her a daisy chain; he kissed tears away Your presence so dear to her, will bring you home again

Ghost Love 06:02
Trapped in a castle – what a place to be? I hardly know why I’m here or where I’m going I think I’m dreaming but I really cannot tell Am I stuck in the mists of time? I’m nobody’s father; I’m nobody’s son, No one’s brother, I just don’t belong I keep hearing myself calling her to come home to me But my voice fades on the wind, and there are no answers I can see I watch for her at windows of rooms that see no dawns I walk among the people of future eras Passing through walls is such an easy game to play I please them with their tiny minds A bullet passed through me in sixteen forty-five They don’t consider that I might feel I’m still alive If I could only find her, the lady I love most Perhaps she could help me die; until that time you might call me a ghost Doubt thou the stars are fire; doubt all that’s above; Doubt truth is a liar; but never doubt that I love. I reach out to touch all of those who pass me by Won’t someone catch my troubled hand? When I met her, I was floating on air She threw her arms around me, and we didn’t have a care She said she’d be at my side; that we were blessed from above Could she have known back then that her man would become a ghost in love So, this is how it feels, to be a ghost in love. Oh, this is how it feels, to wait for the one you love. I so know how it feels to lose the one you love. This is how it feels.

When the snow lines the window, and I’m moved by the light When the trees are made of moonbeams, in a silvery night When the flash of a bird’s wing means the flight holds no fear When the sky brings a rainbow That’s when I know you – that’s when I know you are near When the moon’s on the water and the stars bright above When the feel of the springtime brings the meaning of love When a storm passes over and the sky becomes clear When the lark flies the meadow That’s when I know you – that’s when I know you are near For love marks the seasons; it’s all love can do They’re always together and they all become you Butterflies, butterflies fly, so why cannot we? Nature’s eyes, nature’s eyes smile; and there in that place we are free When the shape of a snowflake resembles a star When a breeze on the hillside brings the clouds from afar When the leaves gold and trembling hold the dew like a tear When new rain brings welcome coolness That’s when I know you – that’s when I know you are near For love marks the seasons – chorus When the flame of a candle burns through the night When the winter is ending, the first snowdrop in sight When the mist of the morning hails all you hold dear When the seasons remember That’s when I know you – that’s when I know you are near For love marks the seasons – chorus

Kiss 06:42
I thought I was a portrait, with a face I could hide from the world As she closed her eyes beside me, we kissed and made love on the wall And didn’t mind who would have seen it all I thought we could make a difference, with what we might show to the world She closed her eyes beside me, so we kissed and made love on the wall And didn’t care who the hell saw it all. There is no explanation for how love goes; there is no equation for what love can hold, There is no exception to the book of the lover’s rules, So you can kiss, you can kiss, and damn it all Yes, you kiss, and not mind who sees it all Know that a moment will last forever, where flowers will stay fresh in her hair Forever a golden meadow, in our passionate embrace on the wall, So we kiss, unafraid to show it all So when love is a picture, it opens up doors; the sweep of a brush stroke breaks every law; and when that boundless elation is entirely yours Oh you kiss, yes you kiss, and damn it all Now we kiss, and not mind who sees it all

When you’re looking for love you’re like an earthworm Finding your way up to the sky Love’s like looking for a needle in a haystack You’re the luckiest if you get to see the eye I’ve been a fool for love, I’ve been a fool for love, I thought it came from above, I’ve been a fool for love. When you’re talking and there is no conversation When you stand with roses waiting for the train When you move a dozen mountains and feel good about that It doesn’t mean that someone else will do the same I’ve been a fool for love, I’ve been a fool for love, I thought it came from above, I’ve been a fool for love. There’s nothing giving you a signal that you’re overboard There’s nothing nudging you to tell that you’re wrong There’s only starriness and loveliness and friendship at the time But it’s something that will never last for long There’s not a hint that in your strange imagination There’ll be a clue you might be stepping out of line There’s only cluelessness and dreams gone wrong and roses in your hand A face that can only say life is fine I’ve been a fool for love, I’ve been a fool for love, I thought it came from above, I’ve been a fool for love. When all the orchestras are playing and there’s so much comfort To build up walls of steel and crap seems so unfair When all the blandness and the ice cream make you wonder where you’ve gone Sit with roses in the dark and who will care? Why is it nearness brings so many complications? Why do the fault lines reappear without the cracks? There’s no solutions that can answer all the questions that I have Roses wither in the dark and that’s a fact I’ve been a fool for love, I’ve been a fool for love, I thought it came from high above, I’ve been a fool for love.

Love, sweet as honey, comes so clear in a dream A hand print on damp sand dunes, speaks of all we have seen I saw you in a vision, in the desert afar You freed me from my prison, held by a dark star Hark, now, see my dream in the night Know now, how sand glows in moonlight Be now the one you were long meant to be Stay now in our warm eastern dream Middle – ooh ah. We journeyed there by camel; the stars were the brightest I’d seen I prayed to our dear Hanna, to bring a vision to me Then came my salvation; it rose with the warm Eastern sun We would lie at the oasis till the spell was undone Hark, now, we are safe on this night Know now we are freed from the fight Be now the one you were long meant to be Stay now in our warm eastern dream So put your hand now in my hand and the love we have shared Will flow back into us, I am no longer scared I’ll know we at last reached heaven by the smile on your face We made the cold dark journey, and arrived with good grace Hark, now, hold my dream in the night Know now, the soft dunes in moonlight Be now the one you were long meant to be Stay now in our warm eastern dream

about

Patrick Jasper Lee Wales, UK

I am something of an activist with my music & literature. As an indigenous Rom Gypsy my cultural and artistic work explores the highs and lows of life/soul. I champion tribal origins, and the underdog in our modern times. I am tired of what this society tends to throw at us, especially innocent folk. I believe the awesome beauty of nature & the arts remains our only hope in this chaotic world. ... more
