Older Song Lyrics

Spirit of Love
Too many people, too many places, Not enough love for you and me
Time passes quickly, so do the faces, Of life’s endless road, between you and me

(chorus)
Let the spirit of our love, keep our hearts, And let the memories of the past remain
Don’t put the bad time and the lies apart, They are all scenes of our happy life

If you’re not around, I’d surely go crazy, Without the love you have given me
But the tears I cry, when I say good-bye, Fill my memory with your love

(chorus)
Let the spirit of our love, keep our heats, And let the memories of the past remain
Don’t put the bad time and the lies apart, They are all scenes of our happy life

When the Sun Goes Down
When the sun goes down all the smiles fade away, Leaving me alone in the night to stay
My dreams of love and happiness fill the air, When the sun comes up again, it all seems unfair

(chorus)
This morning I crawled out of bed, I looked in the mirror and I said
Whatcha gonna do with your life, Whatcha gonna do with your heart
It feels like I’m running out of time, I smile all day and when the night comes, I play the part

When the sun goes down, all the lies begin to flow, leaving me to play all the games I know
My dreams of love disappear in the night, When the sun comes up again, I begin to see the light

(chorus)
This morning I crawled out of bed, I looked in the mirror and I said
Whatcha gonna do with your life, Whatcha gonna do with your heart
It feels like I’m running out of time, I smile all day and when the night comes, I play the part

What do you do?
It began a long time ago, when love was new, Love is in their eyes, and there’s so much to do, The spirit stays with them all the day through
People stare in envy of their love so strong, Knowing in their hearts that nothing could go wrong, Seeing that their eyes are full of love songs

(chorus)
What do you do when you’re feeling down? What do you do when there’s no one around?
How do you know when the feelings gone? How do you know when to put a smile on?

Young and in love, they decide to marry, With this vow, his ring she will always wear, And with this ring, her life he will always share
Married life, her childhood dream, Wasn’t what she always planned it out to be, And now all she thinks about is being free

(chorus) 
What do you do when you’re feeling down? What do you do when there’s no one around?
How do you know when the feelings gone? How do you know when to put a smile on?

He’s always gone and she’s always home alone, The dreams they had are still unsewn, She wishes now she had stayed on her own
Years passed and the lonely nights begin to settle in, Leaving him, not looking back, she’s single again

(chorus) 
What do you do when you’re feeling down? What do you do when there’s no one around?
How do you know when the feelings gone? How do you know when to put a smile on?

For Your Touch
Going through the heartache of living without you. I know I’ve made mistakes, but my love is true
Looking into your eyes, a love still burns. I see it and I realize my heart still yearns

(chorus)
For your touch and for your love, It’s your spirit I can’t get enough of
For your charm and for your smile, Open your heart and let me come inside

With the chance you’ve given me, I’ll never let you down
We’ve both had shattered dreams, But we always come around

(chorus)
For your touch and for your love, It’s your spirit I can’t get enough of
For your charm and for your smile, Open your heart and let me come inside

My love will last forever or until you say good-bye
Your words I’ll always keep and the fire in your eyes
