Drea-ea-ea-ea-eam, dream, dream, dream

Drea-ea-ea-ea-eam, dream, dream, dream

When I want you in my arms

When I want you and all your charms

Whenever I want you, all I have to do is

Drea-ea-ea-ea-eam, dream, dream, dream

When I feel blue in the night

And I need you to hold me tight

Whenever I want you, all I have to do is

Drea-ea-ea-ea-eam

I can make you mine, taste your lips of wine

Anytime night or day

Only trouble is, gee whiz

I'm dreamin' my life away

I need you so that I could die

I love you so and that is why

Whenever I want you, all I have to do is

Drea-ea-ea-ea-eam, dream, dream, dream

Drea-ea-ea-ea-eam

I can make you mine, taste your lips of wine

Anytime night or day

Only trouble is, gee whiz

I'm dreamin' my life away

I need you so, that I could die

I love you so and that is why,

Whenever I want you, all I have to do is

Drea-ea-ea-ea-eam, dream, dream, dream

Here is a song called The Rose sung by Bette Midler which uses the rose as a simile for love. Listen here

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u6_s0QIbI94&feature=related

THE 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

Here is "The power of Love" sung by Jennifer Rush: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vLeoiJ1x1xs

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

(first chorus)

'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

(repeat first chorus)

(second chorus) 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

(repeat first chorus) (repeat second chorus)

Here is a great Australian singer/songwriter and you can see beautiful Australian scenery

Sarah Blasko - "All I Want" on www.youtube.com

Here are the lyrics for "All I want"

I don't want another lover So don't keep holding out your hands There's no room beside me I'm not looking for romance Say I'll be here, I'll be here But there's no way you'd understand

All I want All I want All I want When I don't even know myself

I don't want another partner So don't try and break the spell I can't even understand me So don't think that you can help When I say things and see things That's no way on earth to tell

What I want What I want What I want 'Cos I don't even know myself

No-one wants to be lonely But what am I to do? I'm just trying to be honest I don't want to hurt you too When I'll be there, I'll be there I know I sound confused

But all I want All I want All I want All I want All I want See, all I want All I want Is to one day come to know myself
