I KNOW WHAT LOVE IS
By
Celine Dion

***************

I was forgotten
Until you called my name
Lost in the shadows
Until you shined your light my way
Now I believe again
In all my dreams again
I’m wide eyed and innocent
Those doubting days
Are so far away and oh

I will fall
And you will catch me always
Time has taught me this
I will fly
And you’ll be there to guide me
Straight up to my heart’s highest wish
I feel you close to me
And I know what love is

Now there’s no mountain
Too high for me to climb
No ocean so wide
That I could not reach the other side
Now I believe in me
Cause you live and breather in me
And nothing can come between
We are one star
No nigh can darken, Oh

I will fall
And you will catch me always
Time has taught me this
I will fly
And you’ll be there to guide me
Straight up to my heart’s highest wish
I feel you close to me
And I know what love is

It’s an unspoken thing
A quiet opening
There are no words that can go that deep
But I know
I know

I will fall
And you will catch me always
Time has taught me this
I will fly
And you’ll be there to guide me
Straight up to my heart’s highest wish
I feel you close to me
And I know what love is

IF YOU COULD SEE ME NOW

***************

Here they come
Every night the same
Silent stars
Light from a distant flame
Just like the memories of you
That I hold inside
I see you touch
But all the warmth has died

Empty rooms
Crowded by the past
Time is my enemy
Days keep moving faster
But the nights alone can be
An eternity
That never heals the scars
Of foolish pride

If only you could see me now
Goodbye is not so easy now
The freedom that I walked away to gain
Is nothing but these chains
That you alone can break
And you would free me now
Your heart would come undone
Just looking at me once
And my love would bring you back
If only you could see me now

Here I am
Stranger to a smile
Trying to fight the tears
Missing by a mile
I’m not the one who laughed at you
On that yesterday
When you warned me not to throw your love away

If you could only see me now
Goodbye is not so easy now
The freedom that I walked away to gain
Is nothing but these chains
I know your heart would break
If you could hear me now
Your heart would come undone
If you could hear me once
Hoping love will bring you back
If only you could see me now

Like the lonely moon
You see above
That sails the dark alone
Forever
I have no light of my own
Other the love we’ve known
So long ago
Together

If you could feel me now
Your heart would come undone
If you could touch me once
I know love will bring you back
If only you could see me now

A WORLD TO BELIEVE IN

***************

I’ve seen the tears and the heartache, and I felt the pain
I’ve seen the hatred in so many lives, and lost in vain
And yet through this darkness there’s always a light that shines through
And takes me back home
Takes me back home

All of the promises broken
And all of the songs left unsung
Seems so far away as I make my way back to you

You gave me faith and you gave me a world to believe in
You gave me your love to believe in
And feeling this love I can rise up above
And be strong and be whole once again

I know that dreams we hold on to, can just fade away
And I know that words can be wasted, with so much to say
And I when I feel helpless there’s always a hope that shines through
And makes me believe
Makes me believe

And I see for one fleeting moment
A paradise under the sun
I drift away and I make my way back to you

Life goes on
Can leave all sweet sorrow and pain
And life, hold on
To all that you are
To all that we’ll be
And I can go on once again

Because your love hears my soul once again
I can live and I can dream once again
Because you made me believe

NATURE BOY

***************

There was a boy…
A very strange enchanted boy.
They say he wandered very far, very far
Over land and sea,
A little shy and sad of eye
But very wise was he.

And then one day,
One magic day he passed my way.
And while we spoke of many things,
Fools and kings,
This he said to me,
“The greatest thing you’ll ever learn
Is just to love and be loved in return.”

THE POWER OF LOVE

***************

The whispers in the morning
Of lovers sleeping tight
Are rolling like thunder now
As I look in your eyes

I hold on to your body
And feel each move you make
Your voice is warm and tender
A love that I could not forsake

‘Cause I am your lady
And you are my man
Whenever you reach for me
I’ll do all that I can

Lost is how I’m feeling lying in your arms
When the world outside’s too
Much to take
That all ends when I’m with you

Even though there may be times
It seems I’m far away
Never wonder where I am
‘Cause I am always by your side

We’re heading for something
Somewhere I’ve never been
Sometimes I am frightened
But I’m ready to learn
Of the power of love

The sound of your heart beating
Made it clear
Suddenly the feeling that I can’t go on
Is light years away

A SONG FOR YOU

***************

I couldn’t live
I couldnt live without your love
for one kiss
well I’d give everything up
there’s no words I can describe
what I feel deep inside
so I let this song say it all

Then I hope you’ll understand
once you’ve listened till the end

Heard the music in my head
so before I could forget

I start singing
yeah I was singing
this song
for you

Just made up the words
la la la ohhh ohhh yeah
my heart with a melody

so I am singing
this song
for you
