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

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

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

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
