"Of course I'll hurt you. Of course you'll hurt me. Of course we will hurt each other. But this is the very condition of existence. To become spring, means accepting the risk of winter. To become presence means, accepting the risk of absence."

"I want you to know a lot of things. I want you to know how it felt when I was with you. I want you to know the happiness you gave me. I want you to know how much you hurt me when you LIED. I want you to know how I felt when you left. I want you to know how everything changed when you were gone."

"One day you meet someone and for some inexplicable reason, you feel more connected to this stranger than anyone else--closer to them than your closest family. Perhaps this person carries within them an angel--one sent to you for some higher purpose; to teach you an important lesson or to keep you safe during a perilous time. What you must do is trust in them--even if they come hand in hand with pain or suffering--the reason for their presence will become clear in due time."

" No more talk of darkness, forget these wide-eyed fears
          I'm here, nothing can harm you my words will warm and calm you
          Let me be your freedom, let daylight dry your tears
          I'm here with you, beside you to guard you and to guide you
          
          Say you love me every waking moment
          Turn my head with talk of summertime
          Say you need me with you, now and always
          Promise me that all you say is true
          That's all I ask of you
          
          Let me be your shelter, let me be your light
          You're safe, no one will find you, your fears are far behind you
          All I want is freedom, a world with no more night
          And you always beside me, to hold me and to hide me
          
          Then say you'll share with me one love, one lifetime
          Let me lead you from your solitude
          Say you need me with you, here beside you
          Anywhere you go, let me go too
          Christine, that's all I ask of you
          
          Say you'll share with me one love, one lifetime
          Say the word and I will follow you
          Share each day with me, each night, each morning
          Say you love me, you know I do
          Love me, that's all I ask of you
          
          Anywhere you go, let me go too
          Love me, that's all I ask of you"

" Night time sharpens
          Heightens each sensation
          Darkness stirs and wakes imagination
          Silently the senses abandon their defenses
          
          Slowly, gently night unfurls its splendor
          Grasp it, sense it, tremulous and tender
          Turn you face away from the garish light of day
          Turn your thoughts away from cold unfeeling light
          And listen to the music of the night
          
          Close your eyes and surrender to your darkest dreams
          Purge your thoughts of the life you knew before
          Close your eyes let your spirit start to soar
          And you'll live as you've never lived before
          
          Softly, deftly, music shall surround you
          Feel it, hear it, closing in around you
          Open up your mind, let your fantasies unwind
          In this darkness which you know you cannot fight
          The darkness of the music of the night
          
          Let your mind start a journey through a strange new world
          Leave all thoughts of the world you knew before
          Let your soul take you where you long to be
          Only then can you belong to me
          
          Floating, falling, sweet intoxication
          Touch me, trust me, savor each sensation
          Let the dream begin, let your darker side give in
          To the power of the music of the night
          The power of the music of the night
          
          You alone can make my song take flight
          Help me make the music of the night"
