THE SEARCH IS OVER
Artist: Survivor
***************************************************************

How can I convince you what you see is real
Who am I to blame you for doubting what you feel
I was always reachin', you were just a girl I knew
I took for granted the friend I have in you

I was living for a dream, loving for a moment
Taking on the world, that was just my style
Now I look into your eyes
I can see forever, the search is over
You were with me all the while

Can we last forever, will we fall apart
At times it's so confusing, these questions of the heart
You followed me through changes and patiently you'd wait
Till I came to my senses through some miracle of fate

I was living for a dream, loving for a moment
Taking on the world, that was just my style
Now I look into your eyes
I can see forever, the search is over
You were with me all the while

Now the miles stretch out behind me
Loves that I have lost
Broken hearts lie victims of the game
Then good luck it finally struck
Like lightning from the blue
Every highway leading me back to you

Now at last I hold you, now all is said and done
The search has come full circle
Our destinies are one
So if you ever loved me
Show me that you give a damn
You'll know for certain
The man I really am

I was living for a dream, loving for a moment
Taking on the world, that was just my style
Then I touched your hand, I could hear you whisper
The search is over, love was right before my eyes

ANTICIPATION
***************************************************************

Anticipation of seeing someone that means the world to you is one of the world’s best feelings.

Butterflies are released and flutter around in your stomach.

Your mouth is automatically pulled into an excited smile.

Your hands shake at the thought of being able to touch them once again.

There is nothing that could break the spell that the anticipation puts you under.

There is nothing that could break through the wall of happiness that surrounds your being.

The excitement over seeing them again fills you with a sense of impending peace.

You know, deep in your soul, that once you touch, you will be complete once again.

The moments between visits seem to stretch for miles, even they are just brief periods of time.

The anticipation of seeing them again, when you are just moments away from holding them in your arms, makes the time you spent missing them vanish into thin air.

Those moments no longer exist.

The only thing that exists is their face.

The face that holds your secrets, your dreams and holds love for you.

Their smile is always the first thing you see.

You don’t see the body that contains the smile, you don’t see the body that you enjoy.

You see the smile and you see the sparkle in their eyes. 

It’s the smile you live day to day for. 

The sparkle is what you ache to see again while apart.

Moments such as these should be treasured and held deep within your heart.

Memories like those will warm you on a cold winter’s night.

They will fill you with contentment as you are lying in bed alone aching for their touch.

They will make the anticipation of seeing them again sweeter and more meaningful.

To the lovers who will be reunited this weekend, enjoy yourselves and enjoy each other.

I hope the friendship you share continues to deepen to unrealized depths.

Enjoy!!!

You can get away with not washing, not shaving, and
living like a slob and still remain sexy.

 You always look good and smell good, but don't seem
to notice when people are interested. 

Perhaps this is why everyone wants you so much!
