We will learn the words when you get back...

I was shopping for storage boxes and buzzed past the CD dept... and Sarah Brightman's new album Symphony caught my eye... this is from the album, for my love, away on business...

Sarah Brightman & Fernando Lima - Pasión

[via FoxyTunes / Sarah Brightman]

Pasión

Sueñas con un amor
Puro, sin condición
Fuerte, eterno como el sol
Con el que se dibuja una pasión

Sueñas con un amor
Limpio, con devoción

Libre, sacar las alas del corazón
Y Volar a dónde anida la pasión

Chorus:
La pasión, es como un viento inquieto
Que se convierte en libertad
Es saber que hay alguien más que vive
Deseando poderte encontrar
Es viajar sin miedo entre las estrellas y la inmensidad
Es atravesar el fuego, caminar sobre las aguas
Convertir un sueño en realidad
La pasión es ésa fuerza inmensa
Que mueve a toda la creación
Es saber que alguien te está esperando
Mas allá dónde se oculta el sol
Es borrar por siempre de tí la palabra soledad
Son dos almas que se unen llegando así a la eternidad

Nunca te faltará
Alguien en quien confiar

Un ángel que de la mano te llevará
A descubrir un mundo de pasión

(Repeat chorus)

Vives con un amor
Fuerte y sin condición
Libre y ponerle alas al corazón
Volar adónde anida la pasión
I have the English... but would rather learn the Spanish first... together...
"To live content with small means, to seek elegance rather than luxury, and refinement rather than fashion, to be worthy, not respectable, and wealthy, not rich, to study hard, think quietly, talk gently, act frankly, to listen to stars and birds, to babes and sages, with open heart, to bear all cheerfully, do all bravely, await occasions, hurry never, in a word to let the spiritual, unbidden and unconscious, grow up through the common, this is to be my symphony."
William Henry Channing

Efharisto

I like Latin Beat, especially if there is some good guitar work... so here are some examples with a special tribute at the end...
Exile had a hit with this song but the one I like best is from No Mercy...

No Mercy - Kiss You All Over

[via FoxyTunes / No Mercy]

When I get home babe, I'm gonna light your fire
All day Ive been thinking about you babe
You're my one desire
Gonna wrap my arms around you
Hold you close to me
Oh babe I wanna taste your lips
I wanna fill your fantasy
I don't know what Id do without you, babe
Don't know where Id be
You're not just another love
No, you're everything to me
Every time I'm with you baby
Cant believe its true
When you're laying in my arms
And you do the things you do
You can see it in my eyes
I can feel it in your touch
You don't have to say a thing
Just let me show how much
I love you, I need you, babe
I wanna kiss you all over
And over again
I wanna kiss you all over
Till the night closes in
Till the night closes in
No one else can ever make me feel the way you do
Oh keep on loving me baby
And I keep on loving you
Its easy to see when somethings right and something wrong
Well stay with me baby
And hold me all night long
So show me, show me everything you do
Cause baby no one does it quite like you
I love you, I need you, babe
I wanna kiss you all over
And over again
I wanna kiss you all over
Till the night closes in
Till the night closes in
Stay with me
Lay with me
Holding me
Loving me, baby
Here with me
Near with me
Feeling you close to me, baby
So show me, show me everything you do
Cause baby no one does it quite like you
I love you, I need you, babe
I wanna kiss you all over
And over again
I wanna kiss you all over
Till the night closes in...


Then again Bosson came along and made performed this amazing number...

Bosson - Efharisto

[via FoxyTunes / Bosson]

You make me live
I wanna say Efharisto

I'm gonna write you a song, so you'll understand
All that you see in my eyes and read in my hand
It's what I honestly feel
This time I know that it's for real
And 'til I find the right way, this is what I wanna say

Efharisto
For all the love you give
And the way you make me live
I'll say the only word I know
Efharisto
I thank the stars above
For this everlasting love
I wanna say Efharisto

You are to me like the sun
So warm in the sky
You are like sweet summer rain
As soft as a sigh

You're like the ocean so deep
Rocking me gently in my sleep
Don't know where I'm gonna start
So I just say it from the heart

Efharisto
For all the love you give
And the way you make me live
I'll say the only word I know
Efharisto
I thank the stars above
For this everlasting love

I say from my heart for your love
Efharisto
For all the love you give
And the way you make me live
I'll say the only word I know
Efharisto
I thank the stars above
For this everlasting love
I wanna say Efharisto

Efharisto
Efharisto

Both these songs make me realise that I am a very blessed guy... Thank you Moondancer... for being in my life, for sharing, for listening to my wild dreams, for being my muse and my critic, for being you... for letting me be me.
Efharisto... sounds so much more romantic than thank you don't you think?
"I awoke this morning with devout thanksgiving for my friends, the old and the new."
Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803 - 1882)

Open Door

Read the words... Open Door by BWO:
I've heard a lot of songs that were sung out of tune
But I learned to find the heart hidden deep in the dunes
It brings it to the fore what it means to be there
When I hang on the core I've got music to share

Coming from above coming from afar
Coming from within is the voice of my heart

Chorus
Heaven's got an open door tonight
Heaven's got an open door tonight
Heaven's got an open door tonight
We have found the time to get it right
Heaven's got an open door tonight

I used to have a dream gonna fly like a bird
Where I traveled way beyond of my own little world
Now I found the place I can spread out my wings
Keep on searching for the space I can rule like a king

I've seen a lot of things that have changed who I am
Turned a twist on Mother Earth holding back Uncle Sam
Like every story told always comes to an end
Closing chapters of a book let a broken heart mend

Coming from above coming from afar
Coming from within is the voice of my heart

Chorus

All that I can say all that I can do
Every tune I sing I decide to be true
Everywhere we go taking in something new
Every time we play everything that we do
Chorus
Amazing?
So give thanks to the open doors we have each day/night. Here is the video for you to enjoy as well. Bodies Without Organs may have a weird name but some of their songs lyrics have amazing hidden meanings which I find very inspiring.


I will have another song of their's up sometime that has some thoughtfull lyrics as well...
"Don't spend time beating on a wall, hoping to transform it into a door." Dr. Laura Schlessinger

Here follows a short bulletin

Been meaning to do some linky love for a while now...
MizMinka has some great stuff to read and she also loves the Lord, maybe not putting up as much Gospel related stuff as I have been lately but hers are well worth a read.
For those who do not know yet,
Moondancer and I are now know as US... Fait accompli!
Just a reminder that my friend
KatieB is still blogging as well. Some of her musings are worth commenting on.
I trust you all will bear with me as I speak what is on my mind lately, I am not becoming a preacher or a minstrel but God and romance are keeping me rather occupied lately hence the tone of the postings lately.

On a serious note or as I see it sublimely ridiculous, nay, hilarious, I have been accused of stealing... how I do not know as the system I manage just cannot be stolen from, I really think there are crazy people out there that need serious help. Must put that on my prayer list tonight... The poor detective that is investigating this said that a good percentage of these cases are made just to cause the accused embarrassment but waste a huge amount of their time that could be spent investigating real cases. I now see why the police want to fine people laying false charges with huge fines.
So if I stop blogging... please bail me out!

From heaven sent

"And when you are ready, I'll surprise you with a love far more wonderful than any of you would dream.
You see, until you are ready and the one I have for you is ready, I'm working even this minute to have you both ready at the same time."

When I had read
these words I never thought for one heartbeat that He would do it so quickly or in such an intresting way... I know it is from Heaven sent...

[via FoxyTunes / Velvet - Mi Amore
Heey, yeah, heey
Ohh woah oh

Got the fire, got desire
Won't fight it any longer
Can you see it?
Can you feel it?
And it's coming out stronger

(Ai-ae)
I'm lost into loving you
(Ai-ae)
Go, go, go

Mi amor-amor-amore
Take my heart, take my hand
Amor-amor-amore
Our love will never end
Fly away with me my angel
From heaven sent
Amor-amor-amore
Take my heart, mi amore

Oh, mi amore
Mi amore

When you kiss me, when you hold me
When you calling me baby
Then you twist me
Babe you turn me
And it's making me crazy

(Ai-ae)
I'm lost into loving you
(Ai-ae)
Go, go, go

Mi amor-amor-amore
Take my heart, take my hand
Amor-amor-amore
Our love will never end
Fly away with me my angel
From heaven sent
Amor-amor-amore
Take my heart, mi amore

(Go, go, go)
Ai-ae

(Go, go, go)
(Go, go, go)
Ohh

Heey, yeah
Run with me
Come with me
Take me away

(Mi amor-amor-amore)
Take my heart, take my hand
(Amor-amor-amore)
Our love will never end
Fly away with me my angel
From heaven sent
Amor-amor-amore
Take my heart

(Mi amor-amor-amore)
(Take my heart, take my hand)
Take my heart
(Amor-amor-amore)
Our love will never end
Fly away with me my angel
From heaven sent
Amor-amor-amore
Take my heart, mi amore

She leads me through moonlight

[via FoxyTunes / Patrick Swayze - She's like the wind

She's like the wind,
Through my tree
She rides the night
Next to me

She leads me through moonlight
Only to burn me with the sun
She's taken my heart
But she doesn't know what she's done

Chorus:
Feel her breath in my face
Her body close to me
Can't look in her eyes
She's out of my league
Just a fool to believe
I have anything she needs
She's like the wind

I look in the mirror
And all I see
Is a young old man
With only a dream
Am I just fooling myself
That she'll stop the pain?
Living without her
I'd go insane!

Chorus

Chorus:
Feel your breath in my face
Your body close to me
Can't look in your eyes
You're out of my league

Just a fool to believe
(Just a fool to believe)
She's like the wind
(Just a fool to believe)

Just a fool to believe
(She's like the wind)
Just a fool to believe
(Just a fool to believe)
She's like the wind
(Just a fool to believe)
Just a fool to believe
She's like the wind
(Just a fool...she's like the wind)
(She's like the wind)
(Just a fool...she's like the wind)
I have put this one up before but as part of a group of songs... today it has more meaning than ever before, it was playing in my head as I headed home on the bike with the chill morning breeze flowing around me... Sometimes I have to pinch myself to realize what I think is a dream is reality and I just want to cry out with joy. Life is good...
"If you reveal your secrets to the wind you should not blame the wind for revealing them to the trees."
Kahlil Gibran (1883 - 1931)

Rapture

The song, not the event we all wait for... in any case you'll get the message...

Rapture - Nadia Ali of IIO
The night I laid my eyes on you
I felt everything around me move
Got nervous when you looked my way
But you knew all the words to say

And your love slowly moved right in
All this time, oh my love, where you been

Mi amore
Don't you know
My love I want you so
Sugar
You make my soul complete
Rapture tastes so sweet

I'm mesmerised in every way
You keep me in a state of daze
Your kisses make my skin feel weak
Always melting in your heat

Then I soar like a bird in the wind
Oh I glide like I'm flying through heaven

Mi amore
Don't you know
My love I want you so
Sugar
You make my soul complete
Rapture tastes so sweet

Mi amore
Don't you know
My love I want you so
Sugar
You make my soul complete
Rapture tastes so sweet

Yes my
Moondancer... you make my soul complete... sharing our love of God makes it even more complete. Sometimes it the unplanned adventure that is the most amazing and enduring...
"Love is not enough. It must be the foundation, the cornerstone - but not the complete structure. It is much too pliable, too yielding." Bette Davis (1908 - 1989)

Anticipation

Anticipation or being enthusiastic, is an emotion involving pleasure (and sometimes anxiety) in considering some expected or longed-for good event, or irritation at having to wait. Robert Plutchik listed anticipation as one of the eight basic emotions in his psychoevolutionary theory. See also hope. A name for pleasured anticipation is excitement.

Anticipation can be shown in many ways; for example, some people seem to smile uncontrollably during this period, while others seem ill or sick. It is not uncommon for the brain to be so focused on an event, that the body is affected in such a way. Stage fright is a type of anticipation, stemming from the actor or actress hoping that they perform well

Dictionary:

anticipation

an·tic·i·pa·tion
Pronunciation:
\(ˌ)an-ˌti-sə-ˈpā-shən\
Function:
noun
Date:
14th century
1 a: a prior action that takes into account or forestalls a later action
b: the act of looking forward; especially : pleasurable expectation
2: the use of money before it is available
3 a: visualization of a future event or state
b: an object or form that anticipates a later type
4: the early sounding of one or more tones of a succeeding chord to form a temporary dissonance — compare suspension
synonyms see prospect

All I can say is that today is a day of anticipation, what with the Currie Cup Final and Moondancers picnic it is a day filled with prospects for joy or sadness on one hand and definite enjoyment on the other.
"She used to drag her mattress besider her low window and lie awake for a long while, vibrating with excitement, as a machine vibrates from speed. Life rushed in upon her through that window - or so it seemed. In reality, of course, life rushes from within, not from without. There is no work of art so big or so beautiful that is was not once all contained in some youthful body, like this one which lay on the floor in the moonlight, pulsing with ardor and anticipation." Willa Cather (1873 - 1947), The Song of the Lark

It's gonna get to your heart...

Under the lovers sky
Gonna be with you
And no one's gonna be around
If you think that you won't fall
Well just wait until
'Til the sun goes down

Underneath the starlight, starlight
There's a magical feeling so right
It will steal your heart tonight

You can try to resist
Try to hide from my kiss
Don't you know, don't you know
That you, can't fight the moonlight
Deep in the dark, you'll surrender your heart
BUT you know, BUT you know that you
Can't fight the moonlight..No
You can't fight it...
It's gonna get to your heart

There's no escaping love
Once the gentle breeze
Weaves a spell upon your heart
No matter what you think
It won't be too long
'Til you're in my arms

Underneath the starlight, starlight
We'll be lost in the rhythm so right
Feel it steal your heart tonight

You can try to resist
Try to hide from my kiss

But you know, But you know
That you can't fight the moonlight
Deep in the dark, you'll surrender your heart
But you know, but you know that you
Can't fight the moonlight...No
You can't fight it...
No matter what you do
The light is gonna get to you

(You're gonna know
That I know)
Don't try, you're never gonna win, oh

Underneath the starlight, starlight,
There's a magical feeling, so right
It'll steal your heart tonight

You can try to resist, try to hide from my kiss
But you know, but you know that you
Can't fight the moonlight
Deep in the dark, you'll surrender your heart,
But you know, but you know that you
Can't fight the moonlight
No, you can't fight it

You can try to resist, try to hide from my kiss
But you know, but you know that you
can't fight the moonlight
Deep in the dark, you'll surrender your heart,
But you know, but you know that you
Can't fight the moonlight
No, you can't fight it

It's gonna get to your heart...






Lee Ann Rimes - Can't fight the moonlight
Utterly inescapably smitten by the light of the moon. Yet with our eyes fixed on His love, seeking His guidance, giving thanks for moments shared. Who want's to fight the moonlight when given this gift?
"Tis the witching hour of night,
Or bed is the moon and bright,
And the stars they glisten, glisten,
Seeming with bright eyes to listen
For what listen they?"
John Keats (1795 - 1821)

I'll be your dream, I'll be your wish I'll be your fantasy.

Dedicated to the one I am learning to love more and more...
I'll be your dream, I'll be your wish I'll be your fantasy.
I'll be your hope, I'll be your love be everything that you need.
I love you more with every breath truly madly deeply do..
I will be strong I will be faithful 'cause I'm counting on a new beginning.
A reason for living. A deeper meaning. Yeah..

I wanna stand with you on a mountain,
I wanna bathe with you in the sea.
I wanna lay like this forever,
Until the sky falls down on me...

And when the stars are shining brightly in the velvet sky,
I'll make a wish send it to heaven and make you want to cry..
The tears of joy for all the pleasure and the certainty.
That we're surrounded by the comfort and protection of..
The Highest Powers. In lonely hours. The tears devour you..

I wanna stand with you on a mountain,
I wanna bathe with you in the sea.
I wanna lay like this forever,
Until the sky falls down on me...

Oh can you see it baby?
You don't have to close your eyes 'cause it's standing right before you.
All that you need will surely come...

I'll be your dream I'll be your wish I'll be your fantasy.
I'll be your hope, I'll be your love, be everything that you need.
I'll love you more with every breath truly madly deeply do...

I wanna stand with you on a mountain,
I wanna bathe with you in the sea.
I wanna lay like this forever,
Until the sky falls down on me...

I wanna stand with you on a mountain,
I wanna bathe with you in the sea.
I wanna live like this forever,
Until the sky falls down on me...

oh yeah... oh yeah


[via FoxyTunes / Savage Garden - Truly madly deeply]
Tonight I realised we are learning about us... two letters that mean so much yet seem so small and fragile, in our own strenght they could get lost or erased but with His blessing can become a thing of strenght and endurance... for this I thank God for bringing you into my life so unexpectedly.

"True love comes quietly, without banners or flashing lights. If you hear bells, get your ears checked." Erich Segal
