"Truly Madly Deeply"

I'll be your dream

Be everything that you need
I'll love you more with every breath
Truly, madly, deeply do
I will be strong I will be faithful

A new beginning
A reason for living
A deeper meaning, yeah

[chorus:]
I want to stand with you on
a mountain
I want to bathe with you in the sea
I want to lay like this forever
Until the sky falls down on me

And when the stars are shining
brightly in the velvet sky,
I'll make a wish send it to heaven
Then make you want to cry
The tears of joy for all the
pleasure in the certainty
That we're surrounded by the
comfort and protection of

The highest powers
In lonely hours
The tears devour you

[chorus]

Oh can you see it baby?
You don't have to close your eyes
'Cause it's standing right
before you
All that you need will surely come

I'll be your dream I'll be your wish
I'll be your fantasy
I'll be your hope I'll be your love
Be everything that you need
I'll love you more with every breath
Truly, madly, deeply do

[chorus]

I want to stand with you on a
mountain
I want to bathe with you in the sea
I want to live like this forever
Until the sky falls down on me """

[baybee-terri]

[Milena]

I'll be your dream, I'll be your wish I'll be your fantasy.
Senin hayallerin, senin arzuların, seni fantezin olacağım

I'll be your hope, I'll be your love be everything that you need.
Senin umudun, senin aşkın, ihtiyacın olan her şey olacağım

I love you more with every breath truly madly deeply do..
Seni her nefeste daha çok seveceğim içtenlikle, çılgınca, derinden

I will be strong I will be faithful 'cause I'm counting on a new beginning.
Güçlü olacağım, inançlı olacağım çünkü yeni başlangıçlara güveniyorum

A reason for living. A deeper meaning. Yeah..
Yaşam için bir neden, daha derin bir anlam...evet

I wanna stand with you on a mountain,
Seninle bir dağda kalmak istiyorum

I wanna bathe with you in the sea.
Seninle denizde yüzmek istiyorum

I wanna lay like this forever,
Sonsuza değin böyle uzanmak istiyorum

Until the sky falls down over me.
Ta ki gökyüzü üzerime düşene kadar

And when the stars are shining brightly in the velvet sky,
Ve yıldızlar kadife gökyüzünde pırıl pırıl parladığı zaman

I'll make a wish send it to heaven then make you want to cry..
Cennete bir dilek göndereceğim o zaman ağlamak isteyeceksin

The tears of joy for all the pleasure and the certainty.
Bütün zevk ve kesin olan şeyler için sevinç gözyaşları

That we're surrounded by the comfort and protection of The highest powers
Yüksek güçlerin rahatlığı ve koruyuculuğu ile kuşatılacağız

In lonely hours. The tears devour you..
Yalnız ve mutsuz saatler içerisinde gözyaşları seni bitirip yok edecek

Nakarat

Oh can you see it baby?
Oh görebiliyor musun bebek?

You don't have to close your eyes 'cause it's standing right before you.
Gözlerini kapatmana gerek yok çünkü hemen arkanda

All that you need will surely come...
İhtiyacın olan her şey gerçek olacak

I'll be your dream, I'll be your wish I'll be your fantasy.
Senin hayallerin, senin arzuların, seni fantezin olacağım

I'll be your hope, I'll be your love be everything that you need.
Senin umudun, senin aşkın, ihtiyacın olan her şey olacağım

I love you more with every breath truly madly deeply do..
Seni her nefeste daha çok seveceğim içtenlikle, çılgınca, derinden...

I'm from Izmir, Turkey and he is from Zonguldak, Turkey. Believe me I love his dad, he is so awesome just like others in his family.. but seriously his mom hurt/offended me, and being the only daugter in the family, everyone my side is furious..and I personally mad at my ex.. so yeah, oh well eh.. I don't know, if it's true love it have to work out somehow and if not I guess 4 years gone to waste...

Anyhow, enough about me!

Aws! but yours sound like true love! Sooooo cute, really I'm so happy for you, hey do keep us updated on how the wedding plan is looking!! question, right now are you at turkey or here US? Oh yes, might wanna carry "evil eye" it's a charm we have, this keeps us safe from bad thoughts or wish! I believe you know about it. Good luck my dear!

I always wonder how european people look at Turkey,Turkish people and Turkish lifestyle...

Hi all congratulations and good luck with your wedding! im English and my boyfriend is Turkish and we plan to marry as soon as he finishes his miltary serivce in January. I understand what you are all saying about the family thing because we havent announced anything yet, his mom wanted a girl from a local family to be his wife but my mans said its not possible coz hes in love with me. We plan on settlling in England because i have commitments there so i guess we wont have so much family pressure not being in Turkey but i am still going to build a good relationship with his mom because its important. I dont think she likes me though coz like most Turkish guys hes annes kuzu hehe!! Living in Turkey is hard because if you have a mother in law who doesnt accept you she can make your life hell.
Finding a man who is from a good family is very important coz even when you love someone alot if you dont get any peace from the in laws and are treated badly you wont find happiness together. And as you know divorce is hard to get in Turkey due to family pressure. Saya your a beautiful girl and im sure you will find someone really special who has a Mom who loves you and respects you too as her daughter in law. Best of luck to all of u joanne

Hehehe,mother-in-law is always problem for the brides in Turkey even if you are turkish...

[salvaje]

Hello everybody

I realised that turkish families have more connention. Mothers decide a lot in a family. I'm a little excited about the family but my boyfriend is great and he think like me in a ot things so i hope his mother will kind. Actually my boyfriend isnt turkish, he is kurdish but as we know there are a lot problem in this area.

You are sure right about mom in laws !! actually i had a good experience too. Many years ago i was having a serious relationship with someone i met in the uk, he was training to be a kaymakam and we had a serious relationship which ended in me coming to Turkey and living in a small town near Usak, i was very young just 19 and as you can imagine in those days (1990s)there wasnt much to do in a place like that. Eventually he had to go to the East and i returned home but during my time with him and his family i was treated like a real daughter they were so kind to me. Although it broke our hearts i think it was the right descision to split coz now hes a successful kaymakam and i have now met the right person for me my soulmate .
Although the relationship with his mom is alittle different we are not close yet mainly coz shes a widow and hes the only thing she has left, being older and wiser now i can understand that. All turkish moms have a fantasy about choosing their sons wife isnt it??? Anyways i think being a foreigner and then marrying someone Turkish is easier than two turkish familys coming together because it changes the dynamics somewhat.
However, if i live in Turkey i will still be responsible for protecting the familys honour and will be treated as a true Turkish wife that is the hardest thing for a foreign woman who is used to living in a more free society ) I wish you all much success and happiness . best wishes jo

Hi Joanne and all the other foreign girls who want to be with our boys,

Well.. i m Turkish but i m with a Greek man and we ve been together for many years so i guess i can say a wise thing or two to you all... There are somethings that i want to tell you about Turkish families...
1. They get upset soooo easily and talk rubbish and say they dont want any non-turkish people in the family. But trust me they forget more quickly than they get upset. It takes time to realise that you re a part of them and not a threat to them.
2. Mums are always the REAL boss in the house, although dad may pretend to the outside world that he is the man... whatever the mum says is normally followed.. So they like to be the ruler of their childrens' lives forever.. but in time they learn to behave like sane people and stop acting like kids.
3. Gossiping is the national hobby of Turks and they do it for the pure pleasure of it.. so if you hear your name mentioned by some neighbours you dont even know, dont feel bad.. it is good publicity... it means you re famous now.. just laugh at their sillyness and dont be hard on yourselves and whatever you do dont break up with your man or even mention a break up just because of the pressure from other people...

REMEMBER: They are the ones with a problem NOT YOU!! ANd dont let them come in between you and your man... If they upset you sooo much just smile and as if you are saying nice things to them curse them in English (Most of them would not understand and think oh she is smiling she must be saying nice things...) or do something to get them back.. if it gets just too much just book them an appointment with a shrink.. But whatever you do, dont make yourself and your man suffer emotionally... Treat them like maniacs.. with care.. haha And DONT let them win the fight..

In Turkish we say " dinsizin hakkindan imansiz gelir" which i could translate literally but wouldnt make much sense.. but it means.. "if somebody is *****y you can only beat them by being even more *****y" haha

Good luck to you all..It is a difficult game but the rewards are worth the difficulties!!!

I have never understood whats the problem between bride and mother-in-law.I think this is a general problem all over the world.Some turkish moms still choose bride for their sons,at least they want a bride how they hope...Some moms doesn't say anything like" if he will be happy,its ok".As to foreign bride Its really different condition.First how will the mum be able to communicate with her bride.Probably she wouldn't know english.And also It depends on cultural level.My friend also has a foreign fiancé they are going well but they couldn't get marry yet not bcoz of these problems,bcoz of other problems.There are many things to say about this subject but I know If I get marry a foreign girl one day,It won't be problem for me and my fam hehe i am lucky I wish you best luck and happiness

Cok Tesekkur ederim Neslihan your advice is exactly right and very useful i will certainly use it in the future !!! joanne

Why don't they let you ?

[victoire]

First i am too young =P I wouldn't want to get married now
But later it will be hard i think...

The "GONG"begins, If you fight bad with the bad, you will loose, believe me.

You must try to fight the bad thoughts with your clean heart, learn theire culture, be open for all comments.. I think, the family is traditional. Just folow the other girl, how they do, react and show all your love and honor inside you.

Fighting isn't the game girl, don't listen to ppl like this.

Try as i write you, and you will respected and loved from the heart.
If you fight the bad with the bad, you will not respected, but you'll bin seened like a wife of his son. That's not nice and good also.

Be their daughter, BE THE HONOR OF THE FAMILY. Believe me, THEY WOULD DIE FOR YOU THEN.!!!

Just folow your heart now.. GOOD LUCK.. LOVE WINS ..!!!

;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;

For all the ppl with retarted minds.. IF YOU DONT KNOW THEN DON'T REACT AT THIS KINDA QUESTIONS.. DON'T BRAKE BUT CREATE..!!!

KIRICI DEGIL, YAPICI OLMAK LAZIM...

Geri zekali..!!!

hey all just thought id update you !! well i have to admit the might of anne finally defeated me......i split up and am now moving on with my life. The wedding would have been a disaster in the making

There was always a very big nazar on our relationship and in the end i couldnt cope with having a jealous mother in law to be.

I know the culture of Turks, the rules everything but if you havent got family support then life is just going to be an uphill struggle and now im glad its all over.

I wish you all good luck in your futures.... Take care jo x
