Until a Tear Becomes a Rose Lyrics
(Keith)
Darling I can see the clouds around you,
And in your heart I know a sorrow grows,
But if you weep I'll be right there to hold you
Šµil each tear you cry becomes a rose.

(Lorrie)
Dearest love, I know your heart is shattered,
And all my words can offer no release,
But my love will heal the pain you suffered,
And I'll be here if you should turn to me.

(Both)
Darling I can see the clouds around you,
And in your heart I know a sorrow grows,
But if you weep I'll be right there to hold you
Til each tear you cry becomes a rose.

(Keith)
In deepest nights when memories stand together,
Lay with me and put your fears to sleep,
Cause there's no pain; no dream can put us under,
All the love that binds you to me.

(Both)
Darling I can see the clouds around you,
And in your heart I know a sorrow grows,
But if you weep I'll be right there to hold you
Til each tear you cry becomes a rose.

For those looking for a soul classic for a first dance, this song is it. 'Cause I Love You by Lenny Williams is a beautiful song with beautiful lyrics and can make any wedding special.



'Cause I Love You Lyrics
Girl, you know I, I, I, I love you
No matter what you do
And I hope you understand me
Every word I say is true
‘Cause I love you

Baby, I’m thinkin’ of you
Tryin’ to be more of a man for you
And I don’t have much riches
But we gonna see it through
‘Cause I love you

Ho
Ho, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Ho, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Some men need lots of women
For their passions to feel
But I want only you, girl
If it’s in, if it’s in, if it’s in God’s will
‘Cause I, ‘cause I love you

I, I, I love you, baby
With all my heart and soul
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

I love you
I need you

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh your love makes me grow stronger
It keeps goin’ on, oh, baby
I’m glad I found you
I just lo, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, ove to be around you, oh, baby
You’ve been so good to me
Oh, baby
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, ooooh

Hmm, hmm
Hmm...hmm...mmm...
[Lenny talking]
You know
One time things got so bad until
I had to go to one of my friends and talk to him
And I told him, I said, “You know
I’m having problems with the woman that I love
It seems that I call her on the phone and I just can’t get her to answer
And then I went to her house and I saw a car parked in the driveway
I knocked on the door, but still my knocks went unanswered
And then I went home and I-I watched television until television went off
And then I played my records until I just didn’t want to hear them anymore
And finally I went to bed, but I found myself waking up a few hours later
And the tears were running down my face
And my friend told me, he said, “Lenny,
You just oughta forget about her”
But I told my friend, I said, “You know
Maybe you’ve never been in love like I’ve been in love
And maybe you’ve never felt the things that I’ve felt”
But this is what I told my friend
I said, “You know, sometimes you get lonely
You get lonely, you get lonely”

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
And I cryed, I cryiiiiied
Oh-ho, oh-ho, oh-ho, oh-ho, oh-ho, oh-ho, oh, oh, oh

And the tears would fill up in the wells
In the wells of my eyes, ahh baby
And then it got so bad, it got so bad
Till one time I thought I’d roll myself up in a big ol’ ball and die
And then I met you, darlin’
And you smiled at me
Oh, oh, it was such a pretty smile, yes, it was
And you reached out your hand
You helped me (Helped), you helped me (Helped me), you helped, oh
I’m glad, baby, I’m glad, baby
Oh, oh, oh, baby, ey, ey, ey
I wanna believe you, baby
I wanna regrieve you, baby
I’m gonna love you, oh, oh, oh, baby
I’m glad, I’m glad, baby
Oh, oh, yeah, baby, oh, oh, oh
I love you, I love you
I love you, I love you, oh
I love you, I love you
I love you, I love you
I love you, I love you
I love you

"18th Floor Balcony" by Blue September is a great song for couples who would like a unique song for those special moments at their wedding. This song is great for both first dances and the bridal entrance.



18th Floor Balcony Lyrics
I close my eyes and I smile
Knowing that everything is alright
To the core
So close that door
Is this happening?

My breath is on your hair
I'm unaware
That you opened the blinds and let the city in
God, you held my hand
And we stand
Just taking in everything.

And I knew it from the start
So my arms are open wide
Your head is on my stomach
And we're trying so hard not to fall asleep
Here we are
On this 18th floor balcony.
We're both flying away.

So we talked about mom's and dad's
About family pasts
Just getting to know where we came from
Our hearts were on display
For all to see
I can't believe this is happening to me

And I raised my hand as if to show you that I was yours
That I was so yours for the taking
I'm so yours for the taking
That's when I felt the wind pick up
I grabbed the rail while choking up
These words to say and then you kissed me...

I knew it from the start
So my arms are open wide
Your head is on my stomach
And we're trying so hard not to fall asleep
Here we are
On this 18th floor balcony...
We're both flying away.

And I'll try to sleep
To keep you in my dreams
'til I can bring you home with me
I'll try to sleep
And when I do I'll keep you in my... dreams

I knew it from the start
So my arms are open wide
Your head is on my stomach
And we're trying so hard not to fall asleep
So here we are
On this 18th floor balcony, yeah

I knew it from the start
My arms are open wide
Your head is on my stomach
No, we're not going to sleep

Here we are
On this 18th floor balcony... we're both..
Flying away
