Let This Be The Year

I know you've had your share of disappointments
The past is not the way it should have been
You're tired of the hand that fate has dealt you
And looking for a way to start again
 
I know that we're not getting any younger
And I dream about the future we will find
So as I watch the ball drop from the comfort of my easy chair
A new year's resolution comes to mind
 
Let this be the year
That we find a way to make it happen
Let this be the year
That we go the extra mile
Let this be the year
That we vow to spend our lives together
Let this be the year
That I walk you down the aisle
I want to share with you each hope and joy
Each sorrow and each tear
Oh baby, let this be the year
 
My life was changed the first time that I saw you
You smiled at me and took hold of my heart
There's no way I could ever live without you
I suffer with each day we spend apart
 
The hours we're not together pass so slowly
I want to spend forever by your side
So tell me by the next broadcast of New Year's Rockin' Eve
I'll finally get a chance to kiss the bride

Can I See You Tonight

Desperation
I'm callin' out your name
I feel the ache inside
Can you take away the pain
I'm tired of waiting
To finaly see the day
I can hold you in my arms
There has got to be a way

Oh baby, can I see you tonight
Baby, will you turn on the light
The one that leads me to your door
'Cause I can't find it anymore
Ever since the day you told me goodbye


Times are changin'
And I've fallen off my stride
I can't live another day
Without you by my side
I can't escape it
The feeling is too strong
Our lovin' is so right
I just know it can't be wrong

You Inspire Me

You make me want to be more than I am
You make me want to do more than I can
You give me courage to leave my comfort zone
 
You fill me with passion beyond all compare
To go and accomplish more than I dare
When my spirit fails me you lend to me your own
 
You inspire me
To be the man I never thought I'd be
You inspire me
To see the things I never thought I'd see
To break the chains of fear and doubt
Forever holding me
You inspire me
 
 I hope that I can help you to understand
The way I feel when I'm holding your hand
My heart soars higher than it's ever been before
 
I never dreamed it could be like this
You set my world on fire just with one kiss
My soul is yours for now and evermore

Impossible

I got boxes that reach to the sky
In stacks over six feet high
It's a beautiful house
But it doesn't feel like home

To buy it was always a dream
But it's crashing down it seems
'Cause since you're gone
My heart has turned to stone

I'm starting to think it's impossible
To go on living without you
'Cause the more that I try
The more I break down and cry
And I don't know what I'm ever gonna do
My impossible you


Somehow there must be a way
To make it through each day
To bury the pain
And heartache deep inside

Maybe someday I'll find
A way to leave it all behind
But as for now
I need a place to hide

Golden Fist

Time is growing short for the man
With the belt around his waist
The list of pretenders to the throne
Is getting hard to face
They claim he's over the hill
But they know he's undefeated still
And they can't wait to take the title away
From the man with the golden fist
 
Some say the kid is ready
But no one knows for sure
For the number one contender
The title's a big lure
But he knows he won't be king
Until he steps into the ring
To meet the the man who they call champion
The man with the golden fist
 
The ruler's days are numbered
The writing's on the wall
He's been measured and found wanting
And he's headed for a fall
The only thing that's missing
Is someone to heed the call
'Cause he's battled through them all
 
This fight will be the last one
You can see it in his eyes
His body has betrayed him
Time has claimed its prize
But he never will retire
Because his heart still holds the fire
And the passion of a hero
The man with the golden fist
 
The crowd looks on in silence
As the doctors rush the floor
He's lying still and lifeless
He'll rise again no more
And no one thinks to sing
The king is dead, long live the king
But you can read it in the papers
A requiem for the golden fist
 
There will never be another
Man with the golden fist

Keys To My Heart

I have never felt this way before
I don't know where to begin
To show you how much my love for you
Has consumed me
 
There's a fire burning inside my heart
In a way that it's never been
It's out of control and it shows no signs
Of reducing
 
But I don't really care
If it leads me to my doom
As long as it's you who takes me there
 
I give you the keys to my heart
So open the door and stay forever
I give you my love from the start
And over and over again
 
I have fallen captive under your spell
You got your hooks in me
There is no way I could ever dream
Of escaping
 
You've awakened me from a fitful sleep
You opened my eyes to see
That nothing compares to the power of the love
That we're making
 
And I know that it's true
If you ever went away
My life would be nothing without you
 
I give you the keys to my heart
So open the door and stay forever
I give you my love from the start
And over and over again
 
My destiny calls to me
Pulling me constantly
Drawing me close to your side
 
I give you the keys to my heart
So open the door and stay forever
I give you my love from the start
I know that we always will be together
I give you the keys to my heart
Deep down inside there's a buried treasure
I give you my love from the start
And over and over again

Blessing

I hope I have your blessing
For what I want to do
But we have to find a way to go on
Living without you
 
I wish that I could take your place
And let you live again
But I know one day my time will come
And we'll see each other then
 
But for now until that day is here
I've got a job to do
To let them know that it's okay
Feeling happiness anew
Making memories that are never going
To ever include you
And I hope I have your blessing
 
 
I hope you can forgive me
For what I'm going to say
But I've been alone a long long time
And I'm living day to day
 
I know I can't replace you
And I wouldn't care to try
But sometimes I need a hand to hold
And a shoulder where I can cry
 
The boys are growing up so fast
Soon they'll be on their way
I don't want to live my life alone
Under clouds of grey
I want to fall in love again
This is what I pray
And I hope I have your blessing
 
I hope I have your blessing
 
I hope I have your blessing
