seems the old one went *poof* off into cyberspace. nice to put this back where it belongs. :) please post lyrics to describe how you are feeling, how'd you like to feel.....whatever.


in honor of the return of AET:



don't it make you smile?
don't it make you smile?
when the sun don't shine? (shine at all)
don't it make you smile?
don't it make you smile?
don't it make me smile?
when the sun don't shine, it don't shine at all
don't it make me smile?
i miss you already... i miss you always
i miss you already... i miss you all day
this is how i feel...
i miss you already... i miss you always
three crooked hearts and swirls all around... i miss you all day



:D
Stay with me...
Let's just breathe...

    I went back to the doctor
    To get another shrink.
    I sit and tell him about my weekend,
    But he never betrays what he thinks.

    Can you see the real me, doctor?

    I went back to my mother
    I said, "I'm crazy ma, help me."
    She said, "I know how it feels son,
    'Cause it runs in the family."

    Can you see the real me, mother?

    The cracks between the paving stones
    Look like rivers of flowing veins.
    Strange people who know me
    Peeping from behind every window pane.
    The girl I used to love
    Lives in this yellow house.
    Yesterday she passed me by,
    She doesn't want to know me now.

    Can you see the real me, can you?

    I ended up with the preacher,
    Full of lies and hate,
    I seemed to scare him a little
    So he showed me to the golden gate.

    Can you see the real me preacher?
    Can you see the real me doctor?
    Can you see the real me mother?
    Can you see the real me?
    You can walk, you can talk, you can fight
    But inside you've got something to write
    In your hand you hold your only friend
    Never spend your guitar or your pen

    Clouds roll by
    Realing is what say
    Or is it just my way
    Wind goes by, low light
    Side-tracked, low light
    Can't see my tracks, yours scent way back

    Can I be here all alone?
    Clear a path to my home
    Blood runs dry
    Books and jealousy tell me wrong
    I will feel calm
    Voice blows by, low light
    Car crash, low light
    Can't wear my mask, your first, my last

    Voice goes by
    Two birds is what they'll see
    Getting lost upon their way
    Wind rolls by, lowlight
    Eyesight, lowlight
    I need the light
    I'll find my way from wrong, what's real?
    The dream I see

    Artist: Todd Rundgren
    Album: Faithful
    Title: Cliche


    One more game, one more chance
    One more orchestrated song and dance
    He'd be up front and speak his peace
    And ask for her time
    To put their heads together
    And try to make the knot unwind
    And it strikes home that it's time to make his move
    Or it's time to turn and walk away
    So he plays that old cliché

    Silent tears, bleeding heart
    Well our prima donna plies her art
    Defenses of defenses of faultless design
    Still she's only asking him
    To help her make the knot unwind
    And if the very next words
    Leaving her lips could decide
    If he'd go or if he'd stay
    She would play that old cliché

    Who makes up the rules for the world?
    Haven't we been down this road before?
    Isn't anything peculiar here?
    Certainly there must be something more

    Where are the words, where are the words,
    Where are the words
    Where are the words, where are the words,
    Where are the words
    And it's almost not worth singing about,
    It seems so everyday anyway
    Still we play that old cliché

    And here sit i, one man show
    I vivisect and then pretend to know
    All it ever gets me is an ache in the mind
    Can't somebody help me to try to make the knot unwind
    And i say what i say when i know
    There's really nothing left to say
    Then i play that old cliché
    Throw away that old cliché

    In The Aeroplane Over The Sea
    Neutral Milk Hotel

    What a beautiful face I have found in this place
    that is circling all round the sun what a beautiful
    dream that could flash on the screen in a blink of
    an eye and be gone from me soft and sweet let
    me hold it close and keep it here with me and
    one day we will die and our ashes will fly from the
    aeroplane over the sea but for now we are
    young let us lay in the sun and count every
    beautiful thing we can see love to be in the arms
    of all im keeping here with me
    What a curious life we have found here tonight
    there is music that sounds from the street there
    are lights in the clouds
    Anna's ghost all around Hear her voice as it's
    rolling and ringing through me soft and sweet
    how the notes all bend and reach above the
    trees now how I remember you how I would
    push my fingers through your mouth to make
    those muscles move that made your voice so
    smooth and sweet and now we keep where we
    don't know all secrets sleep in winter clothes
    with one you loved so long ago now he don't
    even know his name what a beautiful face I
    have found in this place that is circling all round
    the sun and when we meet on a cloud I'll be
    laughing out loud I'll be laughing with everyone I
    see can't believe how strange it is to be anything
    at all
    Stay with me...
    Let's just breathe...

    this song is just always a mood-brightener....magical...


    Moondance
    Van Morrison

    Well, it's a marvelous night for a Moondance
    With the stars up above in your eyes
    A fantabulous night to make romance
    'Neath the cover of October skies
    And all the leaves on the trees are falling
    To the sound of the breezes that blow
    And I'm trying to please to the calling
    Of your heart-strings that play soft and low
    And all the night's magic seems to whisper and hush
    And all the soft moonlight seems to shine in your blush


    Can I just have one a' more Moondance with you, my love
    Can I just make some more romance with a-you, my love


    Well, I wanna make love to you tonight
    I can't wait 'til the morning has come
    And I know that the time is just right
    And straight into my arms you will run
    And when you come my heart will be waiting
    To make sure that you're never alone
    There and then all my dreams will come true, dear
    There and then I will make you my own
    And every time I touch you, you just tremble inside
    And I know how much you want me that you can't hide


    Can I just have one a' more Moondance with you, my love
    Can I just make some more romance with a-you, my love


    Well, it's a marvelous night for a Moondance
    With the stars up above in your eyes
    A fantabulous night to make romance
    'Neath the cover of October skies
    And all the leaves on the trees are falling
    To the sound of the breezes that blow
    And I'm trying to please to the calling
    Of your heart-strings that play soft and low
    And all the night's magic seems to whisper and hush
    And all the soft moonlight seems to shine in your blush


    One more Moondance with you in the moonlight
    On a magic night
    La, la, la, la in the moonlight
    On a magic night
    Can't I just have one more dance with you my love
    Stay with me...

    nirvana just on my mind now......


    Come As You Are

    Come as you are, as you were,
    As I want you to be
    As a friend, as a friend, as an old enemy
    Take your time, hurry up
    The choice is yours, don't be late
    Take a rest as a friend as an old memoria

    Come dowsed in mud, soaked in bleach
    As I want you to be
    As a trend, as a friend, as an old memoria

    And I swear that I don't have a gun
    No I don't have a gun
    Stay with me...

    "Only" - NIN

    I'm becoming less defined as days go by
    Fading away
    And well you might say
    I'm losing focus
    Kinda drifting into the abstract in terms of how I see myself

    Sometimes I think I can see right through myself [x2]
    Sometimes I can see right through myself

    Less concerned about fitting into the world
    Your world that is
    Cause it doesn't really matter anymore
    (no it doesn't really matter anymore)
    No it doesn't really matter anymore
    None of this really matters anymore

    Yes I am alone but then again I always was
    As far back as I can tell
    I think maybe it's because
    Because you were never really real to begin with
    I just made you up to hurt myself

    [x2]
    I just made you up to hurt myself, yeah
    And I just made you up to hurt myself

    And it worked.
    Yes it did!

    [Chorus:]
    There is no you
    There is only me
    There is no you
    There is only me
    There is no fucking you
    There is only me
    There is no fucking you
    There is only me

    Only [x4]

    Well the tiniest little dot caught my eye and it turned out to be a scab
    And I had this funny feeling like I just knew it's something bad
    I just couldn't leave it alone, I kept picking at the scab
    It was a doorway trying to seal itself shut
    But I climbed through

    Now I am somewhere I am not supposed to be, and I can see things I know I really shouldn't see
    And now I know why, now, now, now I know why
    Things aren't as pretty
    On the inside

    Summer nights and long warm days
    Are stolen as the old moon falls
    My mirror shows another face
    Another place to hide it all
    Another place to hide it all
    And I'm lost, behind
    The words I'll never find
    And I'm left behind
    As seasons roll on by

    Sleeping with a full moon blanket
    Sand and feathers for my head
    Dreams have never been the answer
    And dreams have never made my bed
    Dreams have never made my bed

    And I'm lost, behind
    The words I'll never find
    And I'm left behind
    As seasons roll on by

    Now I wanna fly above the storm
    But you can't grow feathers in the rain
    And the naked floor is cold as hell
    This naked floor reminds me
    Oh the naked floor reminds me

    And I'm lost, behind
    Words I'll never find
    And I'm left behind
    As seasons roll on by

    If I should be short on words
    And long on things to say
    Could you crawl into my world
    And take me worlds away
    Should I be beside myself
    And not even stay

    And I'm lost, behind
    Words I'll never find
    And I'm left behind
    As seasons roll on by
    The car's on fire and there's no driver at the wheel
    And the sewers are all muddied with a thousand lonely suicides

    yesterday, which just officially ended about 40 minutes ago.......damn near perfect day. gorgeous. :)

    Beautiful Day
    U2

    The heart is a bloom
    Shoots up through the stony ground
    There’s no room
    No space to rent in this town

    You’re out of luck
    And the reason that you had to care
    The traffic is stuck
    And you’re not moving anywhere

    You thought you’d found a friend
    To take you out of this place
    Someone you could lend a hand
    In return for grace

    It’s a beautiful day
    Sky falls you feel like
    It’s a beautiful day
    Don’t let it get away

    You’re on the road
    But you’ve got no destination
    You’re in the mud
    In the maze of her imagination

    You love this town
    Even if that doesn’t ring true
    You’ve been all over
    And it’s been all over you

    It’s a beautiful day
    Don’t let it get away
    It’s a beautiful day

    Touch me
    Take me to that other place
    Teach me
    I know I’m not a hopeless case

    See the world in green and blue
    See china right in front of you
    See the canyons broken by cloud
    See the tuna fleets clearing the sea out
    See the bedouin fires at night
    See the oil fields at first light
    And see the bird with a leaf in her mouth
    After the flood all the colors came out

    It was a beautiful day
    Don’t let it get away
    Beautiful day

    Touch me
    Take me to that other place
    Reach me
    I know I’m not a hopeless case

    What you don’t have you don’t need it now
    What you don’t know you can feel it somehow
    What you don’t have you don’t need it now
    Don’t need it now
    Was a beautiful
    Stay with me...
    Let's just breathe...

    I walk the streets of Japan till I get lost
    Cause it doesn't remind me of anything
    With a graveyard tan carrying a cross
    Cause it doesn't remind me of anything
    I like studying faces in a parking lot
    Cause it doesn't remind me of anything
    I like driving backwards in the fog
    Cause it doesn't remind me of anything

    The things that I've loved the things that I've lost
    The things I've held sacred that I've dropped
    I won't lie no more you can bet
    I don't want to learn what I'll need to forget

    I like gypsy moths and radio talk
    Cause it doesn't remind me of anything
    I like gospel music and canned applause
    Cause it doesn't remind me of anything
    I like colorful clothing in the sun
    Cause it doesn't remind me of anything
    I ilke hammering nails and speaking in tongues
    Cause it doesn't remind me of anything

    The things that I've loved the things that I've lost
    The things I've held sacred that I've dropped
    I won't lie no more you can bet
    I don't want to learn what I'll need to forget

    Bend and shape me
    I love the way you are
    Slow and sweetly
    Like never before
    Calm and sleeping
    We won't stir up the past
    So descretely
    We won't look back

    The things that I've loved the things that I've lost
    The things I've held sacred that I've dropped
    I won't lie no more you can bet
    I don't want to learn what I'll need to forget

    I like throwing my voice and breaking guitars
    Cause it doesn't remind me of anything
    I like playing in the sand what's mine is ours
    If it doesn't remind me of anything

    i want to feel like this, always...


    drifting, drifting, drifting away
    i got myself a mansion, then i gave it away
    it's not the world that's heavy, it's just the things that you save
    and i'm drifting, drifting away
    drifting, drifting, drifting along
    i rid myself of worries, and my worries were gone
    i only run when i want to and i sleep like a dog
    i'm drifting, drifting along
    the suitcoats say, "there is money to be made"
    they get so excited, nothing gets in their way
    my road it may be lonely just because it's not paved
    it's good for drifting, drifting away
    all the suitcoats say, "there is money to be made"
    they get so excited, nothing get's in their way
    my road it may be lonely just because it's not paved
    it's good for drifting, drifting away
    drifting, drifting, drifting, uh huh
    i feel like going back there, but never for long
    i sometimes wonder if they know that i'm gone
    i'm drifting, drifting along
    drifting, drifting along...drifting, drifting along

    Bury me softly in this womb
    I give this part of me for you
    Sand rains down and here I sit
    Holding rare flowers in a tomb... in bloom

    Down in a hole and I don't know if I can be saved
    See my heart I decorate it like a grave
    You don't understand who they thought I was supposed to be
    Look at me now a man who won't let himself be

    Down in a hole, feeling so small
    Down in a hole, losin' my soul
    I'd like to fly,
    But my wings have been so denied

    Down in a hole and they've put all the stones in their place
    I've eaten the sun so my tongue has been burned of the taste
    I have been guilty of kicking myself in the teeth
    I will speak no more of my feelings beneath

    Down in a hole, feeling so small
    Down in a hole, losin' my soul
    I'd like to fly,
    But my wings have been so denied

    Bury me softly in this womb
    (Oh I want to be inside of you)
    I give this part of me for you
    (Oh I want to be inside of you)

    (Oh I want to be inside of you)
    Holding rare flowers in a tomb... in bloom
    (Oh I want to be inside)

    Down in a hole, feelin' so small
    Down in a hole, losin' my soul
    Down in a hole, feelin' so small
    Down in a hole, out of control

    I'd like to fly,
    But my wings have been so denied

    T'was a good day today...:)


    Morning has broken, like the first morning
    Blackbird has spoken, like the first bird
    Praise for the singing, praise for the morning
    Praise for the springing fresh from the world

    Sweet the rain's new fall, sunlit from heaven
    Like the first dewfall, on the first grass
    Praise for the sweetness of the wet garden
    Sprung in completeness where his feet pass

    Mine is the sunlight, mine is the morning
    Born of the one light, eden saw play
    Praise with elation, praise every morning
    God's recreation of the new day

    Perfect Situation
    Weezer

    What's the deal with my brain?
    Why am I so obviously insane?
    In a perfect situation
    I let love down the drain.
    There's the pitch, slow and straight.
    All I have to do is swing
    and I'm the hero, but I'm the zero.

    Hungry nights, once again
    Now it's getting unbelievable.
    'Cause I could not have it better,
    But I just can't get no play
    From the girls, all around
    As they search the night for someone to hold onto.
    I just pass through...

    singing...
    Ooohhhhh oh. Ooohhhhh oh. Ooohhhhhhhhhh.
    Singing...
    Ooohhhhh oh. Ooohhhhh oh. Ooohhhhhhhhhh.

    Get your hands off the girl,
    Can't you see that she belongs to me?
    And I don't appreciate this excess company.
    Though I can't satisfy all the needs she has
    And so she starts to wander...
    Can you blame her?

    singing...
    Ooohhhhh oh. Ooohhhhh oh. Ooohhhhhhhhhh.
    Singing...
    Ooohhhhh oh. Ooohhhhh oh. Ooohhhhhhhhhh.

    Tell me there's a logic out there.
    Leading me to better prepare
    For the day that something really special might come.
    Tell me there's some hope for me.
    I don't wanna be lonely
    For the rest of my days on the earth.

    Ooohhhhh oh. Ooohhhhh oh. Ooohhhhhhhhhh.
    Singing...
    Ooohhhhh oh. Ooohhhhh oh. Ooohhhhhhhhhh.
    Singing...
    Ooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

    we love to boogie on a saturday night.......
    When I was born, the doctor came out to the waiting room and said to my father, I'm very sorry. We did everything we could. But he pulled through......

    So glad to see you well
    Overcome and completely silent now
    Without himself
    You cast your demons out
    And not to pull your halo down
    Around your neck and tug you off your cloud
    But I'm more than just curious
    How you're planning to go about
    Making your amends to the dead
    To the dead

    Recall the deeds as if
    They're all someone else's
    Atrocious stories
    Now you stand reborn before us all
    So glad to see you well

    And not to pull your halo down
    Around your neck and tug you to the ground
    But I'm more than just curious
    How you're planning to go about
    Making your amends to the dead
    To the dead

    With your halo slipping down
    Your halo slipping
    Your halo slipping down
    Your halo slipping down
    Your halo slipping down

    Your halo slipping down to choke you now
    "Everyone wants to be the sun that lights up your life, but I'd rather be your moon so I can shine on you during your darkest hour when your sun's not around."

    The Sound Of Settling
    Death Cab for Cutie

    I've got a hunger
    Twisting my stomach into knots
    That my tongue was tied off

    My brain's repeating
    "if you've got an impulse let it out"
    But they never make it past my mouth.

    Baa bah, this is the sound of settling
    Baa bah, baa bah
    [x2]

    Our youth is fleeting
    Old age is just around the bend
    And i can't wait to go grey

    And i'll sit and wonder
    Of every love that could've been
    If i'd only thought of something charming to say.

    Baa bah, this is the sound of settling
    Baa bah, baa bah
    [x4]

    I've got a hunger twisting my stomach into knots.
    Stay with me...
    Let's just breathe...


    I am myself like you somehow

    It's Monday and back to work again. Blah...

    Manic Monday
    Bangles

    Six o'clock already
    I was just in the middle of a dream
    I was kissin' Valentino
    By a crystal blue Italian stream
    But I can't be late
    'Cause then I guess I just won't get paid
    These are the days
    When you wish your bed was already made

    It's just another manic Monday
    I wish it was Sunday
    'Cause that's my funday
    My I don't have to runday
    It's just another manic Monday

    Have to catch an early train
    Got to be to work by nine
    And if I had an air-o-plane
    I still couldn't make it on time
    'Cause it takes me so long
    Just to figure out what I'm gonna wear
    Blame it on the train
    But the boss is already there

    All of the nights
    Why did my lover have to pick last night
    To get down
    Doesn't it matter
    That I have to feed the both of us
    Employment's down
    He tells me in his bedroom voice
    C'mon honey, let's go make some noise
    Time it goes so fast
    When you're having fun
    "All the strength that you might think would disappear, resolving..."

    That Voice Again
    Peter Gabriel

    I want to be with you
    I want to be clear
    but each time I try
    it's the voice I hear
    I hear that voice again

    I'm listening to the conversation
    judge and jury in my head
    it's colouring everything
    all we did and said
    and still I head that sharp tongue talking
    talking tangled words
    I can sense the danger
    just listen to the wind

    I want you close I want you near
    I can't help but listen
    but I don't want to hear
    hear that voice again

    I want to be with you
    I want to be clear
    but each time I try
    it's the voice I hear
    I hear that voice again

    I'm hearing right and wrong so clearly
    there must be more than this
    it's only in uncertainty
    that we're naked and alive
    I hear it through the rattle of a streetcar
    hear it through the things you said
    I can get so scared
    listen to the wind

    I want you close I want you near
    I can't help but listen
    but I don't want to hear
    hear that voice again

    what I carry in my heart
    brings us so close or so far apart
    only love can make love

    I want you close I want you near
    I can't help but listen
    but I don't want to hear
    I hear that voice again

    I want to be with you
    I want to be clear
    but each time I try
    it's the voice I hear
    I hear that voice again
    Stay with me...
    Let's just breathe...

    "The Pretender" - Jackson Browne

    I’m going to rent myself a house
    In the shade of the freeway
    I’m going to pack my lunch in the morning
    And go to work each day
    And when the evening rolls around
    I’ll go on home and lay my body down
    And when the morning light comes streaming in
    I’ll get up and do it again
    Amen
    Say it again
    Amen

    I want to know what became of the changes
    We waited for love to bring
    Were they only the fitful dreams
    Of some greater awakening
    I’ve been aware of the time going by
    They say in the end it’s the wink of an eye
    And when the morning light comes streaming in
    You’ll get up and do it again
    Amen

    Caught between the longing for love
    And the struggle for the legal tender
    Where the sirens sing and the church bells ring
    And the junk man pounds his fender
    Where the veterans dream of the fight
    Fast asleep at the traffic light
    And the children solemnly wait
    For the ice cream vendor
    Out into the cool of the evening
    Strolls the pretender
    He knows that all his hopes and dreams
    Begin and end there

    Ah the laughter of the lovers
    As they run through the night
    Leaving nothing for the others
    But to choose off and fight
    And tear at the world with all their might
    While the ships bearing their dreams
    Sail out of sight

    I’m going to find myself a girl
    Who can show me what laughter means
    And we’ll fill in the missing colors
    In each other’s paint-by-number dreams
    And then we’ll put out dark glasses on
    And we’ll make love until our strength is gone
    And when the morning light comes streaming in
    We’ll get up and do it again
    Get it up again

    I’m going to be a happy idiot
    And struggle for the legal tender
    Where the ads take aim and lay their claim
    To the heart and the soul of the spender
    And believe in whatever may lie
    In those things that money can buy
    Thought true love could have been a contender
    Are you there?
    Say a prayer for the pretender
    Who started out so young and strong
    Only to surrender

    thinking of a dear friend, who my heart so goes out to...and his family.....you are in my thoughts, and i am wishing and hoping for the best for you...

    Sometimes

    large fingers pushing paint
    you're god and you've got big hands
    the colors blend... the challenges you give man
    seek my part... devote myself
    my small self... like a book amongst the many on a shelf
    sometimes i know, sometimes i rise
    sometimes i fall, sometimes i don't
    sometimes i cringe, sometimes i live
    sometimes i walk, sometimes i kneel
    sometimes i speak of nothing at all
    sometimes i reach to myself, dear god


    Don't Give Up

    in this proud land we grew up strong
    we were wanted all along
    I was taught to fight, taught to win
    I never thought I could fail

    no fight left or so it seems
    I am a man whose dreams have all deserted
    I've changed my face, I've changed my name
    but no one wants you when you lose

    don't give up
    'cos you have friends
    don't give up
    you're not beaten yet
    don't give up
    I know you can make it good

    though I saw it all around
    never thought I could be affected
    thought that we'd be the last to go
    it is so strange the way things turn

    drove the night toward my home
    the place that I was born, on the lakeside
    as daylight broke, I saw the earth
    the trees had burned down to the ground

    don't give up
    you still have us
    don't give up
    we don't need much of anything
    don't give up
    'cause somewhere there's a place
    where we belong

    rest your head
    you worry too much
    it's going to be alright
    when times get rough
    you can fall back on us
    don't give up
    please don't give up

    'got to walk out of here
    I can't take anymore
    going to stand on that bridge
    keep my eyes down below
    whatever may come
    and whatever may go
    that river's flowing
    that river's flowing

    moved on to another town
    tried hard to settle down
    for every job, so many men
    so many men no-one needs

    don't give up
    'cause you have friends
    don't give up
    you're not the only one
    don't give up
    no reason to be ashamed
    don't give up
    you still have us
    don't give up now
    we're proud of who you are
    don't give up
    you know it's never been easy
    don't give up
    'cause I believe there's the a place
    there's a place where we belong



    lots of love....and hope....always....
    Stay with me...
    Let's just breathe...

    Brand New Day
    Van Morrison

    When all the dark clouds roll away
    And the sun begins to shine
    I see my freedom from across the way
    And it comes right in on time
    Well it shines so bright and it gives so much light
    And it comes from the sky above
    Makes me feel so free makes me feel like me
    And lights my life with love

    Chorus:
    And it seems like and it feels like
    And it seems like yes it feels like
    A brand new day, yeah
    A brand new day oh

    I was lost and double crossed
    With my hands behind my back
    I was longtime hurt and thrown in the dirt
    Shoved out on the railroad track
    I've been used, abused and so confused
    And I had nowhere to run
    But I stood and looked
    And my eyes got hooked
    On that beautiful morning sun

    Chorus

    And the sun shines down all on the ground
    Yeah and the grass is oh so green
    And my heart is still and I've got the will
    And I don't really feel so mean
    Here it comes, here it comes
    0 here it comes right now
    And it comes right in on time
    Well it eases me and it pleases me
    And it satisfies my mind

    Chorus


    :)
    Stay with me...

    Some Nine Inch Nails this evening...

    Home
    NIN

    Everything
    Is catching up with me
    I awake
    To find i'm not at all where I
    Should be
    And it feels
    I'm getting to the end
    And it's hard
    To figure out what's real
    And what's
    Pretend

    To break from what
    We're tied to
    God knows
    How much i've tried to

    And I am still inside you
    And I am still inside you

    I escape
    Every now and then
    And to think
    I find myself
    Back here again
    And again

    I used to know who I was
    Untill you came along
    I return
    To the only place
    I've ever felt
    That I belong

    To break from what
    We're tied to
    God knows
    How much i've tried to

    And I am still inside you
    And I am still inside you
    "All the strength that you might think would disappear, resolving..."

    in the moonlight
    gettin', why i ought to get back
    it's a, this day is sure to relapse
    it's getting closer to up-ends
    in the moonlight
    given two lost wings
    a beautiful star, i see
    a wonderful sense of feeling
    in the moonlight
    feel, it's a love draw nearer
    darkened days, i spent in
    a night bird is following you all the time
    under a star-lined ceiling
    in darkness, i see
    all your senses revealed
    in the moonlight
    it's, it's the love draw nearer
    darkened days, i spent in
    a night bird is following you all the time
    it's a love draw nearer
    darkened days, i spent in
    a night bird is following you
    is following you
    a night bird is following you all the time
    Stay with me...

    Sleep Tonight
    Stars

    We dont want to sleep tonight
    Still young like that i count the lines
    Beside your mouth that smiles now
    My arms reach up as you go down
    With buried heads we both forget
    All of the past and its regret
    Wind picks up, the window shakes
    We wont hear the morning break

    You will cry
    And i will cry
    Cuz all the love's
    Alive tonight

    Neighbourhoods will try to dream
    While you and me we hold and lean
    Onto bodies slick and charged
    Together just one beating heart
    All around us quiet now
    We hear the leaves fall to the ground
    Morning light upon our bed
    An ally while i catch your breath

    You will cry
    And i will cry
    Cuz all the love's
    Alive tonight
    You will cry.....repeat
    "All the strength that you might think would disappear, resolving..."

    SEASONS

    Summer nights and long warm days
    Are stolen as the old moon falls
    My mirror shows another face
    Another place to hide it all
    Another place to hide it all

    And I'm lost, behind
    The words I'll never find
    And I'm left behind
    As seasons roll on by

    Sleeping with a full moon blanket
    Sand and feathers for my head
    Dreams have never been the answer
    And dreams have never made my bed
    Dreams have never made my bed

    And I'm lost, behind
    The words I'll never find
    And I'm left behind
    As seasons roll on by

    Now I wanna fly above the storm
    But you can't grow feathers in the rain
    And the naked floor is cold as hell
    This naked floor reminds me
    Oh the naked floor reminds me

    And I'm lost, behind
    Words I'll never find
    And I'm left behind
    As seasons roll on by

    If I should be short on words
    And long on things to say
    Could you crawl into my world
    And take me worlds away
    Should I be beside myself
    And not even stay

    And I'm lost, behind
    Words I'll never find
    And I'm left behind
    As seasons roll on by
    Stay with me...
    Let's just breathe...
