Neverland

When the darkness takes me over
Face down, emptier than zero
Invisible you come to me
..quietly
Stay beside me
Whisper to me "Here I am"
And the loneliness fades

Some people think I'm somethin'
Well you gave me that, I know
But I always feel like nothing
When I'm in the dark alone

You provide the soul, the spark that drives me on
Makes me something more than flesh and bone

At times like these
Any fool can see
Your love inside me

All these years
Truth In front of my eyes
While I denied
What my heart knows was right

At times like these
Any fool can see
Your love inside me

I want to be someone
Who someone would want to be


Darling
In the kitchen
With your dreams

Will you fly
again
Take to the sky
again

Undo the hooks
Once and for all
Banish the tic tic tic tok tok tok
Again

Will you be
Yourself for me
Cause I can take it
I can stand
Anything

When you're with me
I can stand it
I can stand

But when you're gone
I never land
In Neverland

Want to be someone, someone would want to be

(by Steve Hogarth)

I Am Touched

I am so deeply touched. So deeply touched by all the care, love, attention and feelings that were put into the preperation of christams gifts for me this year. My Love, my friends, my family - you all put a lot of effort into creating something extraordinary, something I cherish truly, something that will stay with me for years to come. All the words in the world could not express how I feel right now. I love you all !!!
