Mermaiden of gold

Like a rose in full bloom never to die,
Like a dew upon the morning grass,
Like a small twinkling start in the huge dark sky,
The immortal gal crossed my path..

So very kind was fate to me,
To bless this girl I longed to meet,
Young, simple,sweet was she,
A slave of love i was indeed.

As rivers flows and plants starts to grow
My love for her starts to grow,
Love as a seed that i have sown as time went by,
The nector of her love, my labour must reap.

But alas! very much to my dismay,
My heart in pain and tormet lay,
Formly love uncrequited to this very day,
To path of sorrow I was led away.

No words of mine could possibly express
How afflicated I was in torerable pain
She has hated me..the ate was cast,
Oh fickle fortune,my heart cried long in vain.

Loud was my cry over this unattainable treasure,
Which was taken by the wave of the sea of love,
To clamour a beauty so near and yet so far,
I would rather die than live to see,
My love abated, it would never be.

Alas the day I ever was born
To live in this world so full of scorn
But the girl I used to love brimful with desire
The beautiful girl, my mermaiden of gold.

Together

I was going through life...
Without the thoughts of paradise
It was just me and my boy
We didnt know the meaning of joy.

You came to us, with arms opened wide
and we ran to you, and climbed inside
You needed us.. We needed you
Together there's nothing we cant do.

There will be obstacles for us to overcome
But as a family, It can be done
You made me see that love is grand
By simply taking me by the hand.

Your life was filled with anger and strife
I want to make you happy for the rest of ur life
You needed us.. We needed you
Together there's nothing we cant do..

She didnt know how to treat her man
He didnt want to hold my hand
For you, she played games with your heart
For me, he called me names that tore me apart..

They weren't for us, this we know is true
Because you found me and i found you
You needed us.. We needed you
Together there's nothing we cant do..

The love we had, felt more like hate
We needed to find our soulmate
My soul is yours, forever and a day
And i know you feel the very same way..

This feels so right, this feels so true
I thank God for my chance at life with you
You needed us.. We needed you
Together there's nothing we cant do.
