"Our Love" - Michael McDonald

Lost and lonely lives
Floating like waves at sea
We make it day by day
Watching the world go by

In a moment where time stands still
From here we look out on forever

[Chorus:]
Darling, our love
One love that never fades away
Our love
This love will light the world on its way

Shattered, broken dreams
Sifting like grains of sand
We claim it and here we stay
Watching the world go by

And with the strength that we spend in this life
In hope that it goes on forever
We believe as we promise to try, that

[Chorus]

In a moment when time stands still
From here we look out on forever
And we can see all that time will tell

[Chorus]

"OK Pal" - Hurry Up, We're Dreaming, by M83

What do you think I feel when I, when I, take it with you?
What do you think I see when I, when I, take it with you?
Somewhere else, somewhere else, somewhere else...

What do you think I feel when I, when I'm kissing you?
Somewhere else, somewhere else, somewhere else...

"We're walking in the streets - or what's left of them,
I take your hand, and the city is slowly vanishing.
There's no crowd anymore, no cars, no signals.
But in the middle of the road, a purple and mellow shape is floating.
The shape of our mutual dream.
Stay calm, hold me tight, give it a chance to take us away."

We will live, we will dream on the shadow of our world.

A Real Hero by College ft. Electric Youth

A real human being, And a real hero

Back against the wall at OZ

With the strength of a willing to cause

A pursuit some called outstanding

Or emotionally complex

Against a grain

Left to stop at claims

Of all the thoughts your actions entertaining

And you, have proved, to be

A real human being, And a real hero

A planet on a cold, cold morn’ (morning)

155 people or more

All safe and all rescued

From the slowly sinking ship

What are warmer than

His head so cool

And type ‘I knew what to do’

And you, have proved, to be

A real human being, And a real hero

Stand Inside Your Love

Smashing Pumpkins

You and me

Meant to be

Immutable

Impossible

It's destiny

Pure lunacy

Incalculable

Insufferable

But for the last time

You're everything that I want and ask for

You're all that I'd dreamed

Who wouldn't be the one you love

Who wouldn't stand inside your love

Protected and the lover of

A pure soul and beautiful you

Don't understand

Don't feel me now

I will breathe

For the both of us

Travel the world

Traverse the skies

Your home is here

Within my heart

And for the first time

I feel as though I am reborn

In my mind

Recast as child and mystic sage

Who wouldn't be the one you love

Who wouldn't stand inside your love

And for the first time

I'm telling you how much I need and bleed for

Your every move and waking sound

In my time

I'll wrap my wire around your heart and your mind

You're mine forevaaaa.. now

Who wouldn't be the one you love and live for

Who wouldn't stand inside your love and die for

Who wouldn't be the one you love

Love Chronicles Revisited (Epilogue)

Tonight I close a chapter of my life that is hard to talk about. It's hard to repeat the message of it though I do it here in this entry. In fact, I wept bitterly tonight as God came down and graciously confirmed that it was okay to let go and tonight He was bringing closure to it.

"Make room for my love to dwell..." -God

Those were the soft words the Lord spoke to me tonight about what happened to me in February 2007, what followed in 2008 and the final blow in the first two quarters of January 2011. To sum things up: I lost my love, I lost my church and I lost my work. I guess you could say I lost it all. Like the story of Job there was no denying the swift blows God allowed me to take. As I listened to the song playing in the background called "Words That You Say" by Something Like Silas. I finally surrendered to God's message to me concerning his Love for the people around me.

"Make room for my love to dwell..." -God

Over the past two years I have been wrestling with a mild sadness that came from everything that has happened to me while at the same time waiting on God to speak to me about it, but all He repeated was a message concerning His love.

"Follow me where ever I go. I will break your heart so that you can receive my massive love..." -God

So God keeps breaking my heart and enlarging it..."I don't want to go Lord"...Every time my heart wants to grow cold and dark God comes in and fills it with His massive love...."Lord your love hurts...." ...."My Love demands all of you but my love will save you..."

So I go with the words that He says and I break again. From the time He showed me the message of "The Love Chronicles" till now he has been breaking me wide open to pour out this love for me and for the people around me. I don't want it, but I need it because it's saving me each day. It's healing me and giving me a reason to continue on the Journey ahead.

Tonight I close this difficult chapter in my life with a simple message to abandon your heart to God's love. It will save you. Whatever seems more important, more expedient, more appealing, more exact at the moment is only there to keep you from what is truly best which is God's love at home in you.

"²⁴ Now I rejoice in what I am suffering for you, and I fill up in my flesh what is still lacking in regard to Christ’s afflictions, for the sake of his body, which is the church. ²⁵ I have become its servant by the commission God gave me to present to you the word of God in its fullness— ²⁶ the mystery that has been kept hidden for ages and generations, but is now disclosed to the Lord’s people. ²⁷ To them God has chosen to make known among the Gentiles the glorious riches of this mystery, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory." - Colossians 1:24-27
