I can't leave.



I can't leave.
Because I am waiting for God to come
And kiss me at midday.
That kiss sweet.
Who cares for me my God?
I know you care God.
The air feels fine.
Here outside
I am dealing with God know.
Can't you see?
I am busy with him?
Once I open my ear
I heard your gentle words.
The little flowers that
Are planted in the neighbor's garden is called daisy.
I haven't got a woman yet.
I am not interested in it
Deep down I am a good person.
I am a good-hearted man.
The answer that you always give me is
Don't worry.
Everything will be fine.
As long as I am here walking with you.
Guiding you along with me
You tell me you have nothing to fear.
You assure me that nothing bad is going to happen to me.
When your gone
I will love you the right way.
I believe that somethings are better left undone.
When you are just too tired to do it
The rain falls like water from the sky.
Hear, soul and song are what I am hearing.
somebody playing that tune in the guitar.
I recognize it because I heard it a thousand times before.
I never run wild.
I am too old for that.
My younger days are over.
I want to know what I am doing wrong.
Please tell me God
What kind of man I am?
A man with feelings
A man who thinks of others and not only himself
I am gaining control of my life God
I am not losing it.
God is my empire.
My home is like heaven to me.
God
If you could just understand that
It is where my heart is.
I am not always brave God.
You have to understand that.
I never lied to you.
I have to plan for my future.
I have to stop feeling sorry for myself.
And take some action.
The nights are cold now.
And when I sleep, I think of you
And every day when is midday I know I will see you again.
Having a good friend is important to me God
And that good friend is you
The next day at midday I heard the rain
It was coming down hard
I quess we just have to stay inside today
It is fine with me
Saturday I am going away
And I will board the midnight train
And when midday comes no matter where I will be
you will always be there with me
And by your side I will always be
In the morning I look out of the train window
And I see that the train
Is passing by the indian shores
Moving skies I see
They are bright today
Not a clooud in the sky
God I might be fooling myself
Sometimes I don't think I am being honest to myself
Inside my eyes I see that bright light
It is called the sun
The more I see it the more I like it
I am wearing my silk shirt
And my dresspants
And my dress shoes
I do it because I want to feel good and be presentable to others
I will lift up my hands towards your comamdmemts which I love
And I will meditate on your statue
Teach me oh God the way of your statue
And I will keep to the end
Give me understanding that I may keep your law
And observe it with my whole heart
When I think on my ways
I turn my feet to your testimonies
At midnight I rise to praise you
Though the cord of the wicked ensnare me
I do not forget your laws
I long for your salvation
I will sing a joyful song to you God
God I know that my eyes don't lie
To you
You see me
A tired man
God please take my anger away
Please don't tell me where the sun goes
I demand a better future from you
Please make sure I get all this pain and all this sorrow
Out of my life
How many thoughts must I think?
When will I learn to laugh again
And be me?
What can money bring me?
Only comfort
What violence can bring me
Pain and shame
I am the one that have to live with it
What Loneliness brings me sadness
What Issolation brings me
No hope
God I carry no gun loaded with bullets
I don't owed one either
There is a whole new wide world for me
Waiting to be discovered by me God
God your so good to me
Music can heal me God
And put happiness in me
God I have no strings atached to the mobsters
I will show the world that I care about God
I had finally arrived the next morning in Montreal
It was early in the morning and the sun was shining in my eyes
My eyes was getting sore from the sun light
I boarded the taxi and drove to the hotel
When I got there into the hotel I checked in
And went to sleep
I needed a rest badly
I didn't even unpacked my suitcase
I am having more faith in God now
Shadows shadows
Stop me from being a mad fighter
And turns me into a man
Step step up
This is the change
For step up
And be a man
And stop the brutal fight
And learn to control my emotions
I know God that you will help me with that
My heart quivered with a silent of anxiety
Even if I was banished to the darkest place
My love will never let be a lonely spirit
Because God will brighten my world
And the darkness would end
God I will give a chance to life
To pray
To listen to your loving kind words
To listen to the sound
I will give myself a chance to see the flowers that you made it grow
In the parks for everybody to see
You have grown it with your holly hands
God today is the day for me to built a better tomorrow
It is my only chance and hope
That you have given me
And I am going to use it
I am not going to waste it
Because God I want to built a better tomorrow
I will not think about my failours
But I will think about my acomplishments
God
I won't put myself down any more
God thank you for this day
And this day you are here walking beside me
At Night I enjoy looking at the stars
It takes courage for me to be the best I can be
It takes strength for me to conguer the world
It takes strength for me to surender when a bad tought enters my mind
It takes time for me to decide in what I want
It takes time for me to fit with the crowd
It takes strength for me to surrunder to my anger
What lies before me are small matters
As it is promised by the wind
As it is tender in my heart
As it is written in the sky for me and everybody else here on earth to read it
Love makes all things possible
Love is hope's shining star
Faith sees my day shining through
God a song is no song until I sing it
God yesterday was history
God tomorrow will be a mistery that waits for me
Today God is a gift that you gave me
Precious memories tender memories
Could comfort me next time I am in sorrow
Giving me a reason to look towards tomorrow
I can recall a word or deed
From an anuxpected source
That helped uplift my spirit
As I travelled on life's course
So I will never dwell on my troubles
Of a cross I had to bear,
Search deep withim my heart
And find sweet memories there
My life is full of mixture
Full of sunshine and rain
But memories of sunshine I can keep
Memories of rain I can let go
because I find it so sad
I will not quit even if things didn't work out for me God
Because there might be something that is better for me
I will wait for something else to come
It won't be the end of the world
