hmmm...can't believe i haven't posted this tune here yet. very dear to my heart...

You're the Best Thing
The Style Council


I could be discontent and chase the rainbows end
I might win much more but lose all that is mine
I could be a lot but i know i'm not
I'm content just with the riches that you bring
I might shoot to win and commit the sin
Of wanting more than i've already got
I could runaway but i'd rather stay
In the warmth of your smile lighting up my day
(the one that makes me say, heh)

'cause you're the best thing that ever happened to me or my world
You're the best thing that ever happened - so don't go away

I might be a king and steal my peoples things
But i don't go for that power crazy way
All that i could rule but i don't check for fools
All that i need is to be left to live my way
(say listen what i say)

'cause you're the best thing that ever happened to me or my world
You're the best thing that ever happened - so don't go away

I could chase around for nothing to be found
But why look for something that is never there
I may get it wrong sometimes but i'll come back in style
For i realise your love means more than anything
(the song you make me sing - yeah)

'cause you're the best thing that ever happened to me or my world
You're the best thing that ever happened - so don't you go away

thus made me think, this needs a good *bump*. we need more words, more lyrics, of love!


All You Need Is Love
The Beatles

Love, love, love.
Love, love, love.
Love, love, love.

There's nothing you can do that can't be done.
Nothing you can sing that can't be sung.
Nothing you can say but you can learn how to play the game.
It's easy.

Nothing you can make that can't be made.
No one you can save that can't be saved.
Nothing you can do but you can learn how to be you in time.
It's easy.

All you need is love.
All you need is love.
All you need is love, love.
Love is all you need.

All you need is love.
All you need is love.
All you need is love, love.
Love is all you need.

Nothing you can know that isn't known.
Nothing you can see that isn't shown.
Nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be.
It's easy.

All you need is love.
All you need is love.
All you need is love, love.
Love is all you need.

All you need is love (all together, now!)
All you need is love. (everybody!)
All you need is love, love.
Love is all you need (love is all you need).

Yee-hai!
Oh yeah!
She loves you, yeah yeah yeah.
She loves you, yeah yeah yeah.

decides2dream

Oh yeah, all right
Are you going to be in my dreams
Tonight?

.
.
.
.

And in the end
The love you take
Is equal to the love you make.


gotta love the beatles.

my sweetie dedicated this song to me a couple of weeks ago, emphasizing the last 4 lines. i love it

To Make You Feel My Love
by Bob Dylan

When the rain is blowing in your face
And the whole world is on your case
I could offer you a warm embrace
To make you feel my love

When evening shadows and the stars appear
And there is no one to dry your tears
I could hold you for a million years
To make you feel my love

I know you haven't made your mind up yet
And I would never do you wrong
I've known it from the moment that we met
There's no doubt in my mind where you belong

I'd go hungry, I'd go black and blue
I'd go crawling down the avenue
There ain't nothing that I wouldn't do
To make you feel my love

The storms are raging on a rolling sea
And on the highway of regret
The winds of change are blowing wild and free
You ain't seen nothin' like me yet

There ain't nothin' that I wouldn't do
Go to the ends of the earth for you
Make you happy make your dreams come true
To make you feel my love

All My Loving
Lennon/McCartney


Close your eyes and I'll kiss you,
Tomorrow I'll miss you;
Remember I'll always be true.
And then while I'm away,
I'll write home ev'ry day,
And I'll send all my loving to you.

I'll pretend That I'm kissing
the lips I am missing
And hope that my dreams will come true.
And then while I'm away,
I'll write home ev'ry day,
And I'll send all my loving to you.

All my loving I will send to you.
All my loving, darling I'll be true.

I went out walking the other day
Seen a little girl crying along the way
She'd been hurt so bad said she'd never love again
Someday your crying girl will end
And you'll find once again

CHORUS
Two hearts are better than one
Two hearts girl get the job done
Two hearts are better than one

Once I spent my time playing tough guy scenes
But I was living in a world of childish dreams
Someday these childish dreams must end
To become a man and grow up to dream again
Now I believe in the end

CHORUS

Sometimes it might seem like it was planned
For you to roam empty hearted through this land
Though the world turns you hard and cold
There's one thing mister, that I know
That's if you think your heart is stone
And that you're rough enough to whip this world alone
Alone buddy there ain't no peace of mind
That's why I'll keep searching till I find my special one

CHORUS

Maybe I'm Amazed
Paul McCartney

Maybe I'm amazed at the way you love me all the time
Maybe I'm afraid of the way I love you
Maybe I'm amazed at the way you pulled me out of time
And hung me on a line
Maybe I'm amazed at the way I really need you
Chorus:
Maybe I'm a man and maybe I'm a lonely man
Who's in the middle of something
That he doesn't really understand
Maybe I'm a man
and maybe you're the only woman who could ever help me
Baby won't you help me understand

Chorus:
Maybe I'm a man and maybe I'm a lonely man
Who's in the middle of something
That he doesn't really understand
Maybe I'm a man
and maybe you're the only woman who could ever help me
Baby won't you help me understand

Maybe I'm amazed at the way you're with me all the time
Maybe I'm afraid of the way I leave you
Maybe I'm amazed at the way you help me sing my song
You right me when I'm wrong
Maybe I'm amazed at the way I really need you

Chorus:
Maybe I'm a man and maybe I'm a lonely man
Who's in the middle of something
That he doesn't really understand
Maybe I'm a man
and maybe you're the only woman who could ever help me
Baby won't you help me understand

Here, There And Everywhere
Lennon/McCartney

To lead a better life I need my home to be here...

Here, making each day of the year
Changing my life with the wave of her hand
Nobody can deny that there's something there

There, running my hands through her hair
Both of us thinking how good it can be
Someone is speaking but she doesn't know he's there

I want her everywhere and if she's beside me
I know I need never care
But to love her is to need her everywhere
Knowing that love is to share

Each one believing that love never dies
Watching her eyes and hoping I'm always there

I want her everywhere and if she's beside me
I know I need never care
But to love her is to need her everywhere
Knowing that love is to share

Each one believing that love never dies
Watching her eyes and hoping I'm always there

To be there and everywhere
Here, there and everywhere

And so it is
Just like you said it would be
Life goes easy on me
Most of the time
And so it is
The shorter story
No love, no glory
No hero in her sky

I can't take my eyes off of you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off of you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes...

And so it is
Just like you said it should be
We'll both forget the breeze
Most of the time
And so it is
The colder water
The blower's daughter
The pupil in denial

I can't take my eyes off of you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off of you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes...

Did I say that I loathe you?
Did I say that I want to
Leave it all behind?

I can't take my mind off of you
I can't take my mind off you
I can't take my mind off of you
I can't take my mind off you
I can't take my mind off you
I can't take my mind...
My mind...my mind...

smithnic.......*sighs*...that is soooo it! i adore that tune. i posted this tune elsewhere this evening, and then immediately thought of this thread and realized, it *must* be present here!


The Loving
XTC

All around the world,
Every boy and every girl,
Need the loving.
The humble and the great,
Even those we think we hate,
Need the loving.

Soldiers of the queen,
All the hard men that we’ve seen,
Need the loving.
Babies at the breast,
Those in power and those suppressed,
Need the loving.

Let’s face it you just can’t hide,
Your first taste’ll send you reeling,
Like a firework to which we’re tied,
Be prepared to go through your ceiling now.

The loving’s coming,
The loving’s more than just an ad man’s vision.
The loving’s strumming,
On your heart strings,
So loud that you can’t help but listen.

Sailors on the seas,
Or the clergy on their knees,
Need the loving.
All the rich and poor,
Even those we fight at war,
Need the loving.

That thing that we need most of,
That stuff we should try before we’ve died.
Everyone is begging to be loved,
With a free gift, a working heart inside.

The loving’s coming,
The loving’s advertised in all the papers.
The loving’s humming,
Your favourite song,
For once it won’t annoy the neighbours.

The loving, the loving.

All round the world,
Every boy and every girl,
Need the loving.
Cold-hearted or warm,
Every single person born,
Needs the loving.

Way out there in space,
Think we’ll find that alien race,
Needs the loving.
And just to end the list,
Everything that could exist,
Needs the loving.

The loving’s coming!

Let My Love Open The Door
Pete Townshend
~~~~~~~~~~~
the people keep repeatin'
the children follow along
everybody keeps from changin'
and you could say you did enough...
let my love open your door
let my love open your door
let my love open your door...
to your heart...
let my love open the door
let my love open the door
when everything feels all over
everybody seems unkind
i'll give you a four-leaf clover
take all worries out of your mind
let my love open your door
let my love open your door
let my love open your door...
to your heart...
let my love open the door...
to your heart...
let my love open the door...
have the only key to your heart...
i can stop you from fallin' apart
tried to say in my own way...
somebody give me the chance to say...
let my love open your door...
it's all i'm lookin' for
and erase yourself from misery
there's only one thing that's gonna set you free...
when trouble really falls you...
don't let it tie you down
love can cure your problems
you're so lucky i'm around
let my love open your door
let my love open your door
let my love open your door...
to your heart...
let my love open the door...
to your heart...
let my love open the door
let my love open the door
let my love open the door...
oh...to your heart...
oh...baby, i know i said, i said, i said, i said, i said, i said...
...i said, i said, i said, i said, i said, i said...
oh...na na na...let my love open the door...
let my love...
let my love...

A KISS TO SEND US OFF
Incubus

Meet me here
On November 11th, come alone.
Bring your mouth
& selective irreverence
we’ll both see stars. Just…
one more tongue kiss before the sky it falls
out from this cloud we’re hovering on!
(A kiss to send us off! A kiss to send us off! A kiss to send us off!)
Kill your doubt
With the coldest of weapons; confidence.
No more words
just the sound of resplendent
tongues colliding.
One more tongue kiss before the sky it falls
out from this cloud we’re hovering on!
(A kiss to send us off! A kiss to send us off! A kiss to send us off!)
Here I am
there you are
on a wire connecting our hearts
there’s a string
that is tied
to a kite.
There’s a storm
in the sky
now the clouds become electric.
Here I am
there you are.
Could I…
Have a…
Kiss to send us off? A Kiss to send us off! A kiss to send us off!
A Kiss to send us off! A kiss to send us off! A Kiss to send us off!

Love Will Tear Us Apart
Joy Division

When the routine bites hard
And ambitions are low
And the resentment rides high
But emotions wont grow
And were changing our ways,
Taking different roads
Then love, love will tear us apart again

Why is the bedroom so cold
Turned away on your side?
Is my timing that flawed,
Our respect run so dry?
Yet theres still this appeal
That weve kept through our lives
Love, love will tear us apart again

Do you cry out in your sleep
All my failings expose?
Get a taste in my mouth
As desperation takes hold
Is it something so good
Just cant function no more?
When love, love will tear us apart again
