Close my eyes, pretending to be somewhere I belong

What is it that you like with a broken doll?
That makes you play it till it’s in pieces
Why do you hold it tight in your arms?
When all you want is to leave it

too heavy for my shoulders
even though I loaded it on myself

Save, save me from this
That my heart doesn’t know how to bear
Keep me in your warmth
Hide my tearful face in your arms

These steps are heavy, don’t know what to do
I got all these memories, pictures of you
You told me to keep going, keep hanging on
But the day I lost you my whole life just turned all wrong
continue reading "It is finished..(Joh. 19.28/30)"

Oh Lord, You hear all my painfull prayers
and You make me whole again
Oh, forever I will worship You
with all of my heart and all that I am

You carry me gently upon Your shoulders
All of my burdens I lay on You
Seeing the one pair of footprints in the sand
I know they are Yours, not mine

And You say “Come, oh come,
I have seen your pain, I will make you strong.
Come, child come. Let me carry you home.”

Oh Lord, you see all those who needs You
And You sacrificed Your life
For whatever happens in our days
-You’ve already been there, through the worst of ways

No, there’s no need to fear about tomorrow
The one who made it is already there
When you feel you’re drowning in your hearts fragile tears
You can hear Him call; “I’m here my dear”

And He says “Come, oh come,
I have seen your pain, I will make you strong.
Come, child come. Let me carry you home.”

Oh, Lord I will worship You
with all my heart, and all I am
And please, let me never forget what’s behind Your words
when You say “come, come home again..”

Oh You say “Come, oh come,
I have seen your pain, I will make you strong.
Come, child come. Children of my life, let me carry you home.”

A new day, nothing special
weather’s been grey and I’m singing a song.
Watched the tears of rain against my window
as I hoped a friend would come along

I just heard You gave Your life for me;
A sinner among them all
Got to say it’s hard to believe,
That someone else would wanna take my fall

(vuggesang til Andrea Mirabella)

Andrea, dream of something beautiful,
For me, and I’ll dream with you.
Andrea, dream of something beautiful,
Someday you’ll make it true.

It’s been a long day, your bright eyes have seen so much,
They’re tired, let them rest…
There’s so much for you to see out there, and
One day you’ll take my place…

Andrea, dream of something beautiful,
This is your time.
Andrea, dream of something beautiful,
For me, and I’ll dream with you.

I just can’t wait, to hear and talking with you
About sites of life
Of course you are right, young girls they always knows best
Or so they say…

Andrea, dream of something beautiful,
For me, and I’ll dream with you.
Andrea, dream of something beautiful,
That’s all I ask of you.

It’s been a long day, your bright eyes have seen so much,
They’re tired, let them rest…
There’s so much for you to see/ learn out there, and
One day you’ll take my place…

Andrea, dream of something beautiful,
For me, and I’ll dream with you.
Andrea, dream of something beautiful,
This is your time.

Dream of something beautiful…

Thoughts streaming through my head
‘bout the things that you said
All these questions asked
Who will answer back?
Reaching for the answer in
Funny books and magazines
Love and fancy cars
Money talks of who you are
