Real Love (practice cover)

All well to do... I, the glue, and you.

Lyrics:

On that warm summer evening when we snuck away
to that little hidden grove where we used to play
you asked if i held you, would i ever let you go.

(and in that perfect moment on that perfect day
I realised I loved you and was bold enough to say
from the moment I met you, i knew together we'd grow old)

For when hearts like ours entwine
and our souls spontaneously combine
love will stand the test of time.

Now one burden carried is half the load,
for I'll be by your side, guiding you down every road
your very own lighthouse, like those of lovesick sailors at sea.

And like bees, I'll come home everyday
and you'll know that i love you without me needing to say
for the love that i feel isn't done justice through those words..

For when hearts like ours entwine
and our souls spontaneously combine
love will stand the test of time.

You and I.

Love will stand the test of time

Now you're thinking of me, you're all i have.
of all the dreams i thought of boldly,
you're the best I've ever had.

Through the cold winter winds, 
I'll comfort you in the beautiful life we'll spend together.

Now darling, I feel so far from home when i'm not with you, I just feel blue.
and all the fantastical happiness i sought for..
with you, has finally come true.

Through the cold winter winds,
I'll comfort you in the beautiful life we'll spend together.

Don't you think i know how lucky i am to finally hold someone like you
that's why everyday, come what may..
I pray you'll always be this way.

I'll love you better.. and I'll be true, the man you'll depend on when the winter winds are due.

Winter Winds

Someday, I'll be with you here again
for the journey, we'll run through the fields back home..
but I'll keep us out the rain.

For somedays your eyes are just too beautiful to see,
like how angels sing, I bless the wind that brought you to me.

For darling, you are the one little lover for me,
and I am the calling, the little lover for thee.

If I get to ring those wedding bells,
I'll be lucky as hell.

For the journey

Thou shalt have a fishy, on a little dishy.
