(I Have Seen You)
© 2016 by David Nyro
I have seen
I have seen you
I have seen
I have seen you in your glory
I have seen
I have seen you
I have seen
I have seen you in your s o r r o w
I have seen you, reaching for the light
I have seen you, retreating in the night
And you’re beautiful, no matter who you are
You are beautiful, like a Van Gogh star
I have waited for you all my life
getting ready for you all my life
Conscious I will try to be
Conscious of you and me
Conscious I will try to be unconditionally
Glory Sorrrow
I have seen you
I have seen your fractured smile
I have seen you
I have seen your wounded child
And you’re perfect,
no matter where you are
No matter who you’re with
Conscious I will try to be
Conscious of you and me
Conscious I will try to be
unconditionally

Listen To Your Heart
© 2016 by David Nyro
Chorus: Listen to your heart, it’s the bow and the arrow,
Listen to your heart, it’s the bone and marrow
Listen to your heart, it’s the words and the melody
Verse 1:
I see your heart; it’s full of pain; You never thought you’d love again
You’re on a path, not always plain(to see)
You seek the healing, the healing flame
Chorus: Listen to your heart, it’s the bow and the arrow,
Listen to your heart, it’s the bone and marrow
Listen to your heart, it’s the words and the melody
Listen to your heart, it’s the rain and the thunder,
Listen to your heart, it’s the dawn and the wonder
Listen to your heart, it’s the sky and the deep blue sea.
Verse 2:
I know it’s hard to keep on going,
She was the best love you ever knew
But there’s a lighthouse somewhere, glowing.
It’s always been there, inside of you
Bridge:
Cry - She’s gone.
Nothing’s going to bring her back
Closed off her heart to you, forever.
Forever and forever, 'til you reunite, in love,
out in the field beyond the never,
where our pain does not exist.
Chorus: Listen to your heart, it’s the bow and the arrow,
Listen to your heart, it’s the bone and marrow
Listen to your heart, it’s the words and the melody
Listen to your heart, it’s the rain and the thunder,
Listen to your heart, it’s the dawn and the wonder
Listen to your heart, it’s the sky and the deep blue sea.
Listen to your heart, it’s the bow and the arrow,
Listen to your heart, it’s the bone and marrow
Listen to your heart, it’s the words and the melody
Listen to your heart, it’s the rain and the thunder,
Listen to your heart, it’s the dawn and the wonder
Listen to your heart, it’s the sky and the deep blue sea.
Listen to your heart
Listen to your heart
Listen to your heart

Dreams
© 2016 by David Nyro
Oh, you say you’re tired
of waiting on me.
Waiting, in your tower,
for me to awaken and see
Two years you petitioned, positioned, hopefully.
Hope flew out the window, long ago.
The hardest mountain
is the one we must climb
If we’re to find out
what we’re made of
The deepest ocean is the one
that hides inside.
We must face our BathysFEAR,
before we disappear!
Oh, I feel you in my dreams
Oh, I reach you in my dreams
Oh, you love me in my dreams
Oh, you say you’re leaving me,
I’m to blame
Because you never felt
you were the chosen one
But therein lies the crushing irony;
it’s you who did the choosing,
choosing not to see
Oh Oh Oh Oh
The hardest mountain is the one we must climb,
If we’re to find out what we’re made of
The deepest ocean is the one
that hides inside.
We must face our BathysFEAR,
before we disappear!
Oh, I feel you in my dreams
Oh, I reach you in my dreams
Oh, you love me in my dreams
Oh, I feel you in my dreams
Oh, I reach you in my dreams
Oh, you love me in your dreams
you love me in your dreams
A h h A h h A h h
Ahhhh Ahhhhh Ahhhhh

The Man in the Window
© 2017 By David Nyro
See the man in the window,
nursing his drink, with the far-away look in his eyes
See the man take a swallow
There’s a hard blink, he’s choking back something he finally must realize
He gave her everything, everything he had to give
She was in love with her love,
but never in love with the man
How do we measure, measure a love
a love that can never be measured
This was their place, he found his grace
She only saw his disgrace
See the man in the window, wiping his face with his sleeve as he slowly gets up to leave
See the man with no tomorrow
Throws a bill on the table and kisses his life good – bye
He gave her everything
Everything he had inside
She didn’t like all he showed her
And she was the one to decide
How do we measure, measure a love, a love that can never be measured
He found his place Found divine grace She only saw his sad face
See the empty table in the window;
two empty chairs, waiting for someone to come and sit there
See the happy couple in the window
Look at their faces This is “their” place
This is their time to glow . . .

Somebody Save Me (From Loving You)
© 2016 by David Nyro
Somebody save me from loving you
Somebody save me from loving you
I don’t know how this got started
At least that’s what I tell myself
There was a glance a dance
and the sun in your smile
But we know what they say
about flying too close to the sun
Chorus: Somebody save me from loving you
Somebody save me from loving you
I don’t know, I don’t know
I don’t know I don’t know what to do
Somebody save me from loving you.
I know I worry more than I should
but love has a mind of its own
I said, “Don’t hurry, slow and easy is good”
But you wooed and seduced me,
and you made me,
you made me your own
Chorus:
Somebody save me from loving you
Somebody save me from loving you,
loving you.
I don’t know, I don’t know
I don’t know, I don’t know what to do
I don’t know, I don’t know
I don’t know, I don’t know what to do
Somebody save me from loving you.
I don’t know, I don’t know, I don’t know, I don’t know,
I don’t know, I don’t know, I don’t know, I don’t know,
I don’t know, I don’t know, I don’t know, I don’t know,
I don’t know, I don’t know, I don’t know what to do
Somebody save me from loving you
Somebody save me
Somebody save me
from loving you
