Life the fragile flower
Amidst the storms of destruction
Clings to the vine of life
Upheld by its bent stalk
How the winds howl!
The flower closes as it
Feels the lashing raindrops
Browbeat upon it mercilessly
Yet the flower remains
Hanging to its soul
For the storm shall recede
Hearalding rays of redemption
Al Green - Can't Take My Eyes Off You Lyrics You're just too good to be true
Can't take my eyes off you
You'd be like heaven to touch
I want to hold you so much
At long last love has arrived
And I thank God I'm alive
You're just too good to be true
Can't take my eyes off you
Oh, in the way that I stare
There's nothin' else to compare
The sight of you leaves me weak
There are no words enough to speak
But if you feel like I feel
Please let me know that it's real
You're just too good to be true
Can't take my eyes off you
I love you baby and if it's quite all right
I need you baby to warm a lonely night
I love you baby trust in me when I say
Oh, pretty baby don't bring me down, I pray
Oh, pretty baby, now that I found you stay
And let me love you baby, let me love you
You're just too good to be true
Can't take my eyes off you
...........
I love you baby and if it's quite all right
I need you baby to warm a lonely night
I love you baby, trust in me when I say
Fear flees in your presence
Yet you will not coerce me to approach you
Gentle are your ways
Stilling my brash tendencies
Patiently you await
While I vent my frustrations
Your loving arms enfold me
While I quiver in despair
There is no hope without you
There is no strength without your grace
There is no life without your spirit
There is no love without your touch
O that I will believe everyday
That as I fly you still hold my hand
That when I fall you cushion the hurt
That when I cry you ease the pain
All of your joys
All of your pain
All off your tomorrows
All of your sorrows
All of your intelligence
All of your indecision
All of your courage
All of your fears
All of your breakthroughs
All of your breakdowns
All of your mountaintop experiences
All of your valleys of darkness
All of your thrills
All of your routines
All of your frills
All of your essence
All of your being
All of your emptiness
All of your identity
All of your fulness
All of these seem yours
While you are on this earth;
All of these are Mine
When you return to rebirth
