“Air I Breathe”
Anton du Preez
Wide awake, watching as you sleep
Whisper softly, kisses on your cheek
Loving you with all my heart and soul
Hold me close, the lights are way down low
[Chorus]
You make me smile within my eyes
I love your smile and sparkling eyes
Won't you come closer please
'Cause you're the air I breathe
Close my eyes, resting in your arms
Safe with you, I can't resist your charms
Touching me, oh, so tenderly
Sing a song made for you and me
[Repeat Chorus]
So hold my hand wherever we may go
Making love, take it nice and slow
Kiss my lips and whisper, sweet "Hello"
Hold me close and never let me go
[Repeat Chorus]

“Here”
Anton du Preez
Hate it when I fight with you
Trying not to let it through
Sometimes life just fucks with you
Together we can make it through
And turn this thing around
[Chorus]
Take me there with you and I swear
That I’ll always be true, yes I will
And when life keeps spinning circles
‘Round this crazy atmosphere
Well I’ll still be here
Singing la da da da la da da da da
Singing la da da da la da da da da
Suddenly I’m missing you
Somehow we just bid adieu
And if I’m lucky enough to find another you
Well I promise that I’ll start anew
I’ll take my second chance to say “I do”
[Repeat Chorus]
Bridge: la da da...
[Repeat Chorus]

“Light of My World”
Anton du Preez
Two souls share a single thought
Two hearts beating life, as one
You can say anything you will, and still
Nothing can change the way I feel for you
You're alive in me
[Chorus]
You are my light
You are my love
And I want to be with you
For all of my life
I'll be by your side
'Cause you are the light of my world
To be your friend is all I want
To be your love is all I dream
You can do anything you choose, baby
But nothing can stop the love I feel for you
You're inside of me
[Repeat Chorus]
Moonlight shadows all the world
Now I can't see
Searching through darkness
It's your light that sets me free
One single kiss makes me weak
I'm on my knees
I love you, not only for what you are,
But for what I am with you
And I want to be with you
For all of my life
I'll be by your side
'Cause you are the light of my world
[Repeat Chorus ]

“Trust”
Anton du Preez
Sitting here thinking 'bout how to make things right
It's been awhile since we had our last big fight
Watching waves wash away castles in the sand
Wondering how to be a better man
[Chorus]
But I don't care to find the answer
No I don't need the reason why
'Cause now I know you are my lifeline
And you give me wings to fly
Baby, you're by inspiration
And now I know where I belong
'Cause with you my life carries on
Sleeping less, drinking more, clouded by my fear
I sit awake chasing thoughts as the dawn is drawing near
I cannot comprehend what perfect is to you
But why do I fight, when I know this much is true
[Repeat Chorus]
Carries on like the wind as it rushes
Over great Midwestern plains
You smother me with kisses
As the thunder makes it rain
Though lighting bolts may strike
And try to split our hearts in two
I know that you'll be with me
'Til our life is through
[Repeat Chorus] x2
'Cause with you my life
Baby, you are my life
Denny, with you my life carries on

“Weakest Link”
Anton du Preez
Life without you is not worth living
I stare at my own reflection with tears streaming
One single thought prevails in my mind
And it's you
But why can't I shake this feeling inside
That my one hope will be with you?
[Chorus]
I can't go on
Dreaming and wishing and crying and missing
You are only
As strong as your weakest link
You found someone else faster than I can recover
But still I dream that one day I will be your lover
Now everyone says to cast you away and I'm trying
But you're my best friend and I can't go on
Without you embracing my life
[Repeat Chorus]
Crying 'til my tears run dry
I feel like I'm drowning in life
Watching you go
Is killing me slow
Please just give me one more try
[Repeat Chorus] x2

“Let Me Be Me”
Anton du Preez
It’s time for me to move on
Been working hard for so long
When is my time gonna come?
I’m the greatest at what I do
The only one stopping me is you
Realize all that I’ve done
[Pre Chorus]
‘Cause I’ve been waiting
I just carry on every single day
And I’ve been wanting
For you to finally hear what I say
[Chorus]
Everything I want and more
You have never seen before
Cause I’m stronger than you’ll ever see
Just let me be me
Everything I’m fighting for
Yeah the world will hear me roar
Cause I’m stronger than you’ll ever see
Just let me be me
It’s funny how life goes on
Without ever really moving on
I’ve been stuck here for so long
But now’s the time that I shine
You keep yours, I’ll get mine
Cuz it’s all on me this time
[Pre-Chorus]
[Chorus]

“Light of My World (Eclipse Remix)”
Anton du Preez
Whatcha wanna do now?
Baby, I got it
All I wanna do now, is
Baby, get started
Two hearts beating life as one
This kind of love won't come undone
Nothing can change the way I feel for you
You enliven me
[Chorus]
You are my light
You are my love
I want to be with you
For all of my life
I'll be by your side
'Cause you are the light of my world
Whatcha wanna know now
Baby, I love you
All I ever dream of
Is to be your lover
Two souls share a single thought
There's no escaping, now I'm caught
Nothing can change the way I feel for you
You're a part of me
[Repeat Chorus]
Moonlight shadows all the world
And now I can't see
Searching through the darkness
It's your light that sets me free
One single kiss, it makes me weak
I'm on my knees
[Repeat Chorus]

“Let Me In”
Anton du Preez
He slams the door, you feel your heart start racing
Just like before, you feel there’s no escaping
The spirits change him, only rage in his eyes
But still you love him, you say he’s not a devil in disguise
Distract him with his song
Your innocence is wrong
He won’t leave you alone
[Chorus]
Oh Davey, just let me in
So I can rescue you
Oh Davey, just let me in
For I have come for you
You hide your eyes, and hope that no one’s looking
Your bruises scream and cry, but you just say you slipped on something
He’s hurt you for so long, you don’t feel it anymore
But this time he hits so hard you struggle rising from the floor
You find your love is gone
Trying in vain to just hold on
He won’t leave you alone
[Repeat Chorus]
You find the strength inside, now, to get away
You’re thinking, “don’t give up”
Vision blurs from your tears
You’re thinking, “I’m still here”
Lock yourself in a room and dial 9-1-1
Your life has just begun
So hang tight, ‘cause Davey, here I come
[Repeat Chorus]
