New lyrics that I love-
If you ever leave me baby Leave some morphine at my door Cause it would take A whole lot of medication To realize what we used to have We don't have anymore There's no religion that could save me No matter how long my knees are on the floor So keep in mind all of the sacrifices I'm makin Will keep you by my side Will keep you from walkin out the door -Bruno Mars, It will Rain |
Juliette, I would do the stars with you anyday. |
Lyrics to Francis Dunnery - Good Life:
Softly Now, You owe it to the world And everyone knows that you're my favourite girl But there's some things in life that are not meant to be I'm not meant for you and you're not meant for me Here's to our problems And here's to our fights Here's to our achings And here's to you having a Good life From me Softer Now, You owe it to yourself And don't think that you will be left on the shelf Cause there's someone for you and there's someone for me Like me you'll meet them eventually Here's to your lover And here's to my wife Here's to your children and here's to you having a good life From Me Good Life Baby Baby Baby Baby Baby Baby Baby Baby Baby Baby Louder Now, You've lost all your pain You're married with children and happy again And now I'm regretting the move that I made Fatal mistakes are so easily made Enough of my problems they only cause fights Forget that I rang you And promise you'll have such a Beautifully happy and painlessly romantic Good life From Me Good Life |
I love the time and in between
The calm inside me In the space where I can breathe I believe there is a Distance I have wandered To touch upon the years of Reaching out and reaching in Holding out holding in I believe This is heaven to no one else but me And I'll defend it as long as I can be Left here to linger in silence If I choose to Would you try to understand I know this love is passing time Passing through like liquid I am drunk in my desire But I love the way you smile at me I love the way your hands reach out and hold me near I believe I believe This is heaven to no one else but me And I'll defend it as long as I can be left here to linger in silence If I choose to Would you try to understand Oh the quiet child awaits the day when she can break free The mold that clings like desperation Mother can't you see I've got To live my life the way I feel is right for me Might not be right for you but it's right for me I believe I believe This is heaven to no one else but me And I'll defend it as long as I can be left here to linger in silence If I choose to Would you try to understand it I would like to linger here in silence If I choose to Would you understand it Would you try to understand - "Elsewhere," by Sarah McLachlan |
Dry Your Eyes - Neil Diamond
(This song was said to have been written after the assasination of Martin Luther King, Jr. This song is a tribute to him and a rallying cry for his followers to reach deep inside themselves for the strength to continue his fight for equality with dignity and courage.) Dry your eyes and take your song out, it's a newborn afternoon. And if you can't recall the singer you can still recall the tune. Dry your eyes and play it slowly like you're marching off to war; sing it like you know he'd want it, like we sang it once before. And from the center of the circle to the midst of the waiting crowd, if it ever be forgotten sing it long and sing it loud and come dry your eyes. And he taught us more about giving than we ever cared to know, but we came to find the secret and we never let it go. And it was more than being holy and it was less than being free, and if you can't recall the reason can you hear the people sing. Right through the lightning and the thunder to the dark side of the moon, to that distant falling angel that descended much too soon and come dry your eyes. Come dry your eyes. |
Now for you and me it may not be that hard to reach our dreams
But that magic feeling never seems to last And while the future's there for anyone to change, still you know it's seems It would be easier sometimes to change the past I'm just one or two years and a couple of changes behind you In my lessons at love's pain and heartache school Jackson Browne Fountain of Sorrow |

Love many songs by Harry Chapin. Agree with the bold. Also love the music and lyrics to "Mr. Tanner", "Corey's Coming", "Taxi" and "A Better Place to Be" truly amazing storyteller. But for something completely different, I really love the following song by Kansas, "The Wall". I think back on this song frequently when I'm facing challenges in my life and the internal imagery of tearing down the wall to face my problems often comes back to me. I'm woven in a fantasy, I can't believe the things I see The path that I have chosen now has led me to a wall And with each passing day I feel a little more like something dear was lost It rises now before me, a dark and silent barrier between, All I am, and all that I would ever want be It's just a travesty, towering, marking off the boundaries my spirit would erase To pass beyond is what I seek, I fear that I may be too weak And those are few who've seen it through to glimpse the other side, The promised land is waiting like a maiden that is soon to be a bride The moment is a masterpiece, the weight of indecision's in the air It's standing there, the symbol and the sum of all that's me It's just a travesty, towering, blocking out the light and blinding me I want to see Gold and diamonds cast a spell, it's not for me I know it well The treasures that I seek are waiting on the other side There's more that I can measure in the treasure of the love that I can find And though it's always been with me, I must tear down the Wall and let it be All I am, and all that I was ever meant to be, in harmony Shining true and smiling back at all who wait to cross THERE IS NO LOSS |
A favorite of mine by Charles aznavour:
The sound of your name comes to me any hour on wings of the wind, like the scent of a flower how can I explain, it's impossible power The sound of your name The sound of your name is a Valentine greeting a bell when it rings and a heart when it's beating and drawing a spell where all things keep repeating The sound of your name Your name is a song that I long to be writing the music is strong and the words are inviting exchangeable melodies strangely exciting I found in your name The sound of your name can bring times of desire that flares like a flame as it climbs ever higher that burns in my senses and turns them to fire The sound of your name But love is a game that continuously changes: the players, discoveries and the dangers we started as lovers, we ended as strangers now where can I turn? Your name's the ghost of a chance that you gave me a grave little dance just enough to enslave me and only my grief, what is there that can save me if you don't return At night in my dreams you are there, an obsession I whisper your name, like a prayer, a confession you've entered my soul and you've taken possession and whom can I blame? For you are the heaven on earth that I sigh for the high unattainable moon that I cry for as long as I live, I will live and I'll die for The sound of your name |
Another one:
I know the time will come When you'll be taken from me I've watched you growing up With every passing day I know the time will come For life will soon demand it When you will find someone Who'll take you far away And you will never see The sadness in my smile Your eyes will overflow With happiness and tears No you will never see the shadow In my heart as I watch for the word The spring of all my years And I'll conceal the pain Beneath a father's pride While in the silent church Together side by side Each measured step Would bring me closer to the time You'll say the simple words And I'll be left in sorrow For what is mine today Will never see tomorrow I'll have to step aside For someone I don't know When all is said and done He'll lead and you will follow While through the stained glass window I'll watch my daughter go. I know the time will come You'll blossom ever gently One day from innocence To woman wordly wise I know the time will come One unexpected moment The dawn of life anew Will awaken in your eyes For he will come along With all his boyish charms He'll take your heart away And leave me empty arms And I will rue this day This day he comes to you With promises of love To make your dreams come true And though he takes our name And gives you his instead He'll never know the times I stood beside your bed Already I despise this stranger with no face But if he'll bring you joy My heart to him I'll render I'll give to him your hand Our name I will surrender Yes,I will do all this Because I love you so And as I see you now Sweet child so softly sleeping Your youth a moment's keeping The time will come |
Ok, the last one :
He, he observes you from where he sits You, it unnerves you, you lose your wits He, he ignites you with eyes of flame You, it excites you, you like the game And I, in my chair, though I hardly speak I notice each innuendo And I, in my chair, I’m stricken with fear At seeing the end so near He, out to win you, he woos with style You, you continue to coyly smile He, with his quarry on hunting ground You, only sorry that I’m around... And I, in my chair, though I hardly speak I see just how well he’s doing And I, in my chair, I’m trying to hide The dread that I hold inside He, his eyes flatter, your glances touch You, now you chatter a bit too much He, like a gypsy, he serenades You, you grow tipsy, your laugh cascades And I, in my chair, though I hardly speak My heart’s on the verge of crying And I, in my chair, my heart understands My love is now changing hands No, no, it’s nothing, perhaps a little tired only Not at all, why do you ask? On the contrary... This was a beautiful evening, yes, indeed, a beautiful evening |
Oh, it’s been a long time coming
Two of the world’s greatest America’s Sweetheart, Reba McEntire Yeah, yeah, how you doin’, Andy? We ‘bout to take it to the top Hit ‘em, Reba Haters in my face Try to keep me down But you know we keep on shining (Here we go!) Two big stars from opposite worlds ‘Bout to set this track on fire (Yeah, she’s the queen of country) He’s a comedy prince Makin’ something out of nothing (We hooked up in the studio to make this song!) But as usual we ended up fucking (No doubt!) Flashback to when I first met Reba Sitcom dressing room, puffing on cheeba I said I was a fan, she said “groovy” Dropped her denim skirt and said, “hop to it” Made love all night (More like we fucked!) Kids banging on the door, trynna interrupt But them autographs can wait ‘Cause this is way too strong I can’t leave it alone Because her pussy’s the bomb Well my pussy is the bomb and that’s a fact But these n-words keep on tripping (Okay!) So I stay on my grind and drop these hits ‘Cause I can’t go back to stripping (I’m Reba!) (You’re my undercover freak) And you’re my best friend, but our families don’t approve (That’s right ‘cause I’m a city boy) And I’m a country girl And I’ll never leave your sweet balls blue Ay, because a girl like Reba’s got just what I need With big, broad shoulders and a red ass weave (And a penis) Hot damn, she fly All she wanna do is fuck me I’m a lucky guy (I’m a guy too) My friends think I should dump her They say she’s a man who found a wig in a dumpster (Your friends are smart) Naw, Rebs, they’re just jealous ‘cause I’m dating a star instead of hanging with the fellas (Hanging like my nuts) Word up, they’re just liars They can’t believe that I could pull Reba McEntire Since I came out my mama’s butt I knew I was destined for greatness I looked in a dumpster and saw a wig And thought, “hey brother, I’m gon’ take this” (Tell ‘em, Reba!) So I put it right on and took a stroll Right over to 30 Rock (SNL!) I saw Andy Samberg and he thought I was Reba And I made him suck my dirty cock So there you have it Two worlds collide We the new Bonnie and Clyde (Reba!) From haystacks to Maybachs, our love will survive For Reba I ride, ‘til the day that we die (I’m Reba!) |

Why, Annie Lennox. Tears me up every time I hear it.
How many times do I have to try to tell you That I'm sorry for the things I've done? But when I start to try to tell you, That's when you have to tell me Hey... this kind of trouble's only just begun. I tell myself too many times Why don't you ever learn to keep your big mouth shut? That's why it hurts so bad to hear the words That keep on falling from your mouth Falling from your mouth Falling from your mouth Tell me... Why Why I may be mad I may be blind I may be viciously unkind But I can still read what you're thinking And I've heard is said too many times That you'd be better off Besides... Why can't you see this boat is sinking (this boat is sinking this boat is sinking) Let's go down to the water's edge And we can cast away those doubts Some things are better left unsaid But they still turn me inside out Turning inside out turning inside out Tell me... Why Tell me... Why This is the book I never read These are the words I never said This is the path I'll never tread These are the dreams I'll dream instead This is the joy that's seldom spread These are the tears... The tears we shed This is the fear This is the dread These are the contents of my head And these are the years that we have spent And this is what they represent And this is how I feel Do you know how I feel ? 'cause i don't think you know how I feel I don't think you know what I feel I don't think you know what I feel You don't know what I feel |
