WEST LIFE THE ROSE LYRICS

WESTLIFE
"This Rose"
Some say love it is a river
That drowns the tender reed.
Some say love it is a razor
That leaves your soul to bleed.
Some say love it is a hunger
An endless, aching need
I say love it is a flower,
And you it's only seed.
It's the heart afraid of breaking
That never learns to dance
It's the dream afraid of waking
That never takes the chance
It's the one who won't be taken,
Who cannot seem to give
And the soul afraid of dying
That never learns to live.
When the night has been too lonely
And the road has been too long.
And you think that love is only
For the lucky and the strong.
Just remember in the winter
Far beneath the bitter snow
Lies the seed that with the sun's love,
In the spring, becomes the rose.

CRAIG DAVID UNBELIEVABLE LYRICS

"Unbelievable"
Always said I would know where to find love,
Always thought I'd be ready and strong
enough,
But some times I just felt I could give up.
But you came and you changed my whole
world now,
I'm somewhere I've never been before.
Now I see, what love means.
[Chorus]
It's so unbelievable,
And I don't want to let it go,
Something so beautiful,
Flowing down like a waterfall.
I feel like you've always been,
Forever a part of me.
And it's so unbelievable to finally be in love,
Somewhere I'd never thought I'd be.
In my heart, in my head, it's so clear now,
Hold my hand you've got nothing to fear now,
I was lost and you've rescued me some how-.
I'm alive, I'm in love you complete me,
And I've never been here before.
Now I see, what love means.
[Chorus]
When I think of what I have, and this chance I
nearly lost,
I cant help but break down, and cry.
Oh yeah, break down and cry.
[Chorus]
Now I see, what love means

Band perry lyrics "If I Die Young"

"If I Die Young"
if i die young bury me in satin
lay me down on a bed of roses
sink me in the river at dawn
send me away with the words of a love song
ooh ooh ooh ooh
lord make me a rainbow I'll shine down on my
mother
she'll know I'm safe with you and she stands
under my colors
oh and life ain't always what you think it
ought to be
no ain't even gray but she buries her baby
the sharp knife of a short life
well I've had just enough time
if i die young bury me in satin
lay me down on a bed of roses
sink me in the river at dawn
send me away with the words of a love song
the sharp knife of a short life
well, i have just enough time
and I'll be wearing white
when i come into your kingdom
I'm as green as the ring on my little cold
finger
I've never known the lovin' of man
but it sure felt nice when he was holdin' my
hand
there's a boy here in town
who says he'll love me forever
who would have thought forever could be
severed
by the sharp knife of a short life
well I've had just enough time
so put on your best boys, and I'll wear my
pearls
what i never did is done
a penny for my thoughts oh no I'll sell 'em for
a dollar
they're worth so much more after I'm a goner
and maybe then you'll hear the words that
I've been singin'
its funny when your dead how people start
listenin'
if i die young bury me in satin
lay me down on a bed of roses
sink me in the river at dawn
send me away with the words of a love song
ooh ooh the ballad of a dove
go with peace and love
gather up your tears and keep them in your
pocket
save em for a time when your really gonna
need em.
oh the sharp knife of a short life
well I've had just enough time
so put on your best boys, and I'll wear my
pearls

LIFE HINTS

Hints for Life"

1. It hurts to love someone and not be loved in return.
But what is more painful is to love someone and never
find the courage to let that person know how you feel.

2. A sad thing in life is when you meet someone who
means a lot to you, only to find out in the end that it was
never meant to be and you just have to let go.

3. The best kind of friend is the kind you can sit on a
porch swing with, never say a word, and then walk away
feeling like it was the best conversation you've ever had.

4. It's true that we don't know what we've got until we lose
it, but it's also true that we don't know what we've been
missing until it arrives.

5. It takes only a minute to get a crush on someone, an
hour to like someone, and a day to love someone-but it
takes a lifetime to forget someone.

6. Don't go for looks, they can deceive. Don't go for wealth,
even that fades away. Go for someone who makes you
smile because it takes only a smile to make a dark day
seem bright.

7. Dream what you want to dream, go where you want to go,
be what you want to be. Because you have only one life and
one chance to do all the things you want to do.

8. Always put yourself in the other's shoes. If you feel that it
hurts you, it probably hurts the person too.

9. A careless word may kindle strife. A cruel word may wreck
a life. A timely word may level stress. But a loving word may
heal and bless.

10. The happiest of people don't necessarily have the best
of everything they just make the most of everything that comes
along their way.

PRECIOUS LIFE

As we grow up, we learn that even the one person that wasn't supposed to ever let us down, probably will. You'll have your heart broken and you'll break others' hearts. You'll fight with your best friend or maybe even fall in love with them, and you'll cry because time is flying by. So take too many pictures, laugh too much, forgive freely, and love like you've never been hurt. Life comes with no guarantees, no time outs, no second chances. you just have to live life to the fullest, tell someone what they mean to you and tell someone off, speak out, dance in the pouring rain, hold someone's hand, comfort a friend, fall asleep watching the sun come up, stay up late, be a flirt, and smile until your face hurts. Don't be afraid to take chances or fall in love and most of all, live in the moment because every second you spend angry or upset is a second of happiness you can never get back.

NEVER QUIT

Don't Quit

When things go wrong as they sometimes will,
When the road you're trudging seems all up hill,
When the funds are low and the debts are high
And you want to smile, but you have to sigh,
When care is pressing you down a bit,
Rest if you must, but don't you quit.
Life is queer with its twists and turns,
As every one of us sometimes learns,
And many a failure turns about
When he might have won had he stuck it out;
Don't give up though the pace seems slow--
You may succeed with another blow,
Success is failure turned inside out--
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt,
And you never can tell how close you are,
It may be near when it seems so far;
So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit--
It's when things seem worst that you must not quit.

Hope

Hope
is like the sun, which, as we journey
toward it, casts the shadow of our
burden behind
us.

ACUSTOMED TO THE DARKNESS

And this is the judgment: the light
has come into the world, and
people loved the darkness rather
than the light because their works
were evil. John 3:19
Ask an American for a symbol which
represents freedom and most will
mention the Statue of Liberty or the
Liberty Bell.
Ask a Frenchman the same
question and he will probably speak
of the Bastille.
Originally built as a fortress during
the Hundred Years' War, the
Bastille Saint-Antoine was
transformed into a prison, a place
where political undesirables were
sent. It was commonly felt that folks
who went in never came out.
That's why when the leaders of the
French Revolution were looking for
a cause around which they could
rally the people, freeing the poor
souls of the Bastille became a top
priority. Indeed, the day the
Bastille's prisoners were liberated
continues to be regarded as the
birthday of freedom in France.
Now I know you won't be surprised
if I tell you there is a rest of the
story.
It seems that one prisoner, a man
who had been locked in his cell for
years, was also released. The crowd
expected to see the man's heart
filled with joy and his face beaming
with uncontrolled gratitude. That's
what they expected, but that's not
what happened.
The man, accustomed to the dark,
immediately put his head down and
tried to shield his eyes from the
sun's glare. Then, almost without
hesitation he begged to be taken
back to his hole. It was obvious, his
heart had only one desire: to die in
the darkness.
How's that for a sad story?
Even worse, on a spiritual level, that
man's story is constantly being
repeated.
For almost 2,000 years the Gospel
has been preached. By the Holy
Spirit's power, hundreds upon
hundreds of millions have been
brought to faith and acknowledged
Jesus Christ as their personal
Savior from sin and as the living
Light of a sin-stained world.
Sadly -- and you can see them in
the evening news -- there are
those who love the darkness. God
is reaching out to them, but they
slap His hand away. Jesus died to
save them, but they would rather
live for themselves. They love the
darkness and want nothing to do
with the light.
Many years ago, I had a seminary
professor who said, "Every man has
the God-given right to go to hell if
he wishes." These people, the
people of the darkness, are making
use of that right. This is why we
need to remember these people in
our prayers. We remember those
we see on the news, and we
remember those who are closer --
who are much closer -- to us our
friends and loved ones.
