You could be my unintended
Choice to live my life extended
You could be the one Ill always love
You could be the one who listens to my deepest inquisitions
You could be the one Ill always love
Ill be there as soon as I can
But Im busy mending broken pieces of the life I had before
First there was the one who challenged
All my dreams and all my balance
She could never be as good as you
You could be my unintended
Choice to live my life extended
You should be the one Ill always love
Ill be there as soon as I can
But Im busy mending broken pieces of the life I had before
Ill be there as soon as I can
But Im busy mending broken pieces of the life I had before
What you see's not what you get
With you there's just no measurement
No way to tell what's real from what isn't there
Your eyes they sparkle
That's all changed into lies that drop like acid rain
You washed away the best of me
You don't care
You know you did it
I'm gone
To find someone to live for in this world
There's no light at the end of the tunnel tonight
Just a bridge that I gotta burn
You were wrong
If you think you can walk right through my door
That is just so you
Coming back when I've finally moved on
I'm already gone
Sometimes shattered
Never open
Nothing matters
When you're broken
That was me whenever I was with you
Always ending, always over
Back and forth, up and down like a rollercoaster
I am breaking that habit today
You know you did it
I'm gone
To find someone to live for in this world
There's no light at the end of the tunnel tonight
Just a bridge that I gotta burn
You were wrong
If you think you can walk right through my door
That is just so you
Coming back when I've finally moved on
I'm already gone
There is nothing you can say
Sorry doesn't cut it, babe
Take the hit and walk away
'Cause I'm gone
Doesn't matter what you do
It's what you did that's hurting you
All I needed was the truth
Now I'm gone
What you see's not what you get....
What you see's not what you get
You know you did it
I'm gone
To find someone to live for in this world
There's no light at the end of the tunnel tonight
Just a bridge that I gotta burn
You were wrong
If you think you can walk right through my door
That is just so you
Coming back when I've finally moved on
I'm already gone.
Well someone told me yesterday
That when you throw your love away
You act as if you just don’t care
You look as if your going somewhere
But I just cant convince myself
I couldn’t live with no one else
And I can only play that part
And sit and nurse my broken heart
So lonely
Now no ones knocked upon my door
For a thousand years or more
All made up and nowhere to go
Welcome to this one man show
Just take a seat they’re always free
No surprise no mystery
In this theater that I call my soul
I always play the starring role
So lonely
If I could be anything in the world I would be your teardrop...I would be born in your eyes, live on your cheeks, and die on your lips.
I want to show you something
like the joy inside my heart
Seems i've been living in
The temple of the dog
Where would I live if I
Were a man of Golden Words
Or would I live at all?
Words and music..My only tools
Communication
So on her arrival I will
set free the birds
It's a pretty time of year
When the mountains sing aloud
Tell me Mr. Golden words
How's about the world
Tell me, can you tell me at all?
Words and music..my only tools
Communication
Lets fall, in love with music
The driving force of our living
The only International language
Divine glory, the expression
The knees bow the tongue confesses
The lord of lords, the king of kings
..king of kings
Words and music..my only tools
Communication....
"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."
He could’ve tuned in, tuned in
But he tuned out
A bad time, nothing could save him
Alone in a corridor, waiting, locked out
He got up outta there, ran for hundreds of miles
He made it to the ocean, had a smoke in a tree
The wind rose up, set him down on his knee
A wave came crashing like a fist to the jaw
Delivered him wings, "Hey, look at me now"
Arms wide open with the sea as his floor
Oh, power, oh
He's.. flying
Whole…
High.. wide, oh
He floated back down 'cause he wanted to share
His key to the locks on the chains he saw everywhere
But first he was stripped and then he was stabbed
By faceless men, well, fuckers
He still stands
And he still gives his love, he just gives it away
The love he receives is the love that is saved
And sometimes is seen a strange spot in the sky
A human being that was given to fly
"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."

Do you remember a guy that's been
In such an early song
I've heard a rumour from Ground Control
Oh no, don't say it's true
They got a message
from the Action Man
"I'm happy, hope you're happy too
I've loved
all I've needed to love
Sordid details following"
The shrieking of nothing is killing
Just pictures of Jap girls
in synthesis and I
Ain't got no money and I ain't got no hair
But I'm hoping to kick but the planet it's glowing
[CHORUS]
Ashes to ashes, funk to funky
We know Major Tom's 4
a junkie
Strung out in heaven's high
Hitting an all-time low
Time and again I tell myself
I'll stay clean tonight
But the little green wheels are following me
Oh no, not again
I'm stuck with a valuable friend
"I'm happy, hope you're happy too"
One flash of light
but no smoking pistol
I never done good things
I never done bad things
I never did anything out of the blue,
Want an axe to break the ice
Wanna come down right now
[CHORUS]
My mother said
to get things done
You'd better not mess
with Major Tom...~
******************************** "Forgive every being, the bad feelings it's just me"
I walk half way around the world,
Just to sit down by your side.
And I would do most anything girl,
To be the apple of your eye.
Troubles they may come and go,
But good times they are the gold.
And if this road gets rocky girl,
Just steady as we go.
Any place you wanna go,
Know I'll be next to you.
If it's treasure baby you're looking for,
I'll search the whole world through.
Know troubles they may come and go,
But good times they're the gold.
So if the road gets rocky girl,
Just steady as we go.
When the storm comes,
You shelter me.
And I don't say a word,
And you know exactly what I mean.
In the darkest times,
You shine on me.
You set me free.
And keep me steady as we go.
So if your heart rings dry my love,
I will fill your cup.
And if your load gets heavy girl,
I will lift you up.
Troubles they may come and go,
But good times be the gold.
So if this road gets rocky girl,
Just steady as we go.
Ah
Hold me,
Shine on me.
Oh, shine, shine,
Shine on me.
Shine, shine
Yeah shine on me.
Hey shine.
If I could be anything in the world I would be your teardrop...I would be born in your eyes, live on your cheeks, and die on your lips.
Forgive me if now I wear the face of worry
This time alone could never cause any doubt
But I’ve been cold too long
Such a strange time to find myself coming down as the rain
With all these holes my love,
To fill up from the middle
This storm could stay all night
So can you stay until we close our eyes
Til your dreams hold mine
Just stay until we know we tried one more time
Cause laughing lovers can overcome their closest demons
And they’ll go on and they won’t let go
They saw something that they know
Has never come so close
Can it stay here for us, for now?
Can it stay until we know ourselves?
I’m torn as I tell
You’re the story that I know and fell from
I’m so far into your story I don’t know why
We think we’re in control
When we lie between the lines
We’ll find a line to follow
It’s got to show real soon
Or we’ll never reach this high
We climb a little further
Cause there’s nothing we can’t get around together
Further gets colder until nothing was all that I saw around
So we stay until the ground
That we can’t come down from splits us away
Maybe stars know why we fall
I just wish they were thinking out loud
Oh, I could wish all night
If I could be anything in the world I would be your teardrop...I would be born in your eyes, live on your cheeks, and die on your lips.
She's a dancer
a romancer
I'm a capricorn
and she's a cancer
She saw my picture in a music magazine
When she met me
said she'd get me
Touched her hips and told me that she'd let me
I took her hand,
baby this is what I said:
I said, " baby, baby, dont you hesitate
cause I just cant wait..
Lady, wont you take me down to my knees
You can do what you please..
Come on and love me!"
I'm a man
I'm no baby
And you're lookin every inch a lady
You're good lookin
and you're lookin like you should be good
You were distant
now you're nearer
I can feel your face inside the mirror
The lights are out
and I can feel you, baby, with my hand
So baby, baby, dont you hesitate
cause I just cant wait
Lady, wont you take me down to my knees
You can do what you please...
Come on and love me!
"This here's a REQUEST!"
EV intro to Chloe Dancer / Crown of Thorns

We all have a weakness
But some of ours are easy to identify
Look me in the eye, and ask for forgiveness
We'll make a pact to never speak that word again
Yes, you are my friend
We all have something that digs at us
At least we dig each other
So when weakness turns my ego up
I know you'll count on the me from yesterday
If I turn into another
Dig me up from under what is covering
The better part of me
Sing this song
Remind me that we'll always have each other
When everything else is gone
We all have a sickness
That cleverly attaches and multiplies
No matter how we try
We all have someone that digs at us
At least we dig each other
So when sickness turns my ego up
I know you'll act as a clever medicine
If I turn into another
Dig me up from under what is covering
The better part of me
Sing this song
Remind me that we'll always have each other
When everything else is gone.
Wise men say only fools rush in
But I cant help falling in love with you
Shall I stay
Would it be a sin
If I cant help falling in love with you
Like a river flows surely to the sea
Darling so it goes
Some things are meant to be
Take my hand, take my whole life too
For I cant help falling in love with you
Like a river flows surely to the sea
Darling so it goes
Some things are meant to be
Take my hand, take my whole life too
For I cant help falling in love with you
For I cant help falling in love with you
No more upset mornings
No more trying evenings
This American Dream
I am disbelieving.
When the gas in my tank
feels like money in the bank
I’m gonna blow it all this time,
take me one last ride.
For the lights of this city
They only look good when I’m speeding
I wanna leave em all behind me
cause this time
I’m gone
Long gone
This time I'm letting go of it all
So long
Cause this time I'm gone
In the far off distance
As my taillights fade
No one to witness
but they will someday
Feel like a question is forming
And the answers far
I will be what I could be
Once I get out of this town.
For the lights of this city
They’ve lost all of their feeling
Gonna leave em all behind me
cause this time
I’m gone
Long gone
This time I'm letting go of it all
So long
Long gone I'm letting go of it all
yeh this time I'm gone
If nothing is everything
If nothing is everything I’ll have it all
If nothing is everything
then I will have it all.
I am gone.
Ron: I just don't feel like going out tonight
Sammi: Wanna just break up?
I looked him in the eye, tell him just like this
I think that you should suck my dick
cuz I don't give a fuck who you are or who you came with
take your nose out the air, your attitude home
get off your fuckin' phone when your in my zone
and while your at it, why don't you eat my shit
I'll take a polaroid and write a certificate
I try to be gental, but man your just too thick
Optimus Rhyme - I heart PuBotCs
I necessarily have the passion for writing this, and you have the passion for condemning me; both of us are equally fools, equally the toys of destiny. Your nature is to do harm, mine is to love truth, and to make it public in spite of you. - Voltaire
I´m passing through the doorway now
Everything is upside down
The one that I´m leaving
Is the one I´m really trying to find
I know
It´s so stupid and it´s tearing me down
But a lack of self-confidence
Is keeping me down tonight
All night
I tried telling you everything´s not broken
but you cried when telling me all we had is gone
I´m drifting through the morning breeze
Colors blurring in my eyes
The one that I´m missing
Is the one drifting by my side
I know
It´s so stupid and it´s tearing me down
But a lack of self-confidence
Is keeping me down tonight
All night
And I tried telling you everything´s not broken
But you cried when telling me all we had is gone
And I tried telling you everything´s alright
‘Cause I feel that deep down inside you I´m still there
Tried, tried, tried, tried
And I tried telling you everything´s alright
Cause I feel that deep down inside you I´m still there
So, you know how people are
When it's all gone much too far
The way their minds are made
Still, there's something you should know
That I could not let show
That fear of letting go
And in this moment, I need to be needed
With this darkness all around me, I like to be liked
In this emptiness and fear, I want to be wanted
'Cause I love to be loved
I love to be loved [x2]
Yes, I love to be loved
I cry the way that babies cry
The way they can't deny
The way they feel
Words, they climb all over you
'Til they uncover you
From where you hide
And in this moment, I need to be needed
When my self-esteem is sinking, I like to be liked
In this emptiness and fear,
I want to be wanted
'Cause I love to be loved
I love to be loved [x2]
Oh I love to be loved
This old familiar craving
I've been here before, this way of behaving
Don't know who the hell I'm saving anymore
Let it pass let it go let it leave
From the deepest place I grieve
This time I believe
And I let go [x2]
I can let go of it
Though it takes all the strength in me
And all the world can see
I'm losing such a central part of me
I can let go of it
You know I mean it
You know that I mean it
I recognize how much I've lost
But I cannot face the cost
'Cause I love to be loved
Yes I love to be loved
I love to be loved
[x3]
I love to be loved
I love to be loved
Yes I love to be loved
and . . . *our* song . . .
the lyrics aren't quite right, but eh well the sentiment is.
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 go away
If the sun refused to shine, I would still be loving you.
When mountains crumble to the sea, there will still be you and me.
Kind woman, I give you my all, Kind woman, nothing more.
Little drops of rain whisper of the pain, tears of loves lost in the days gone by.
My love is strong, with you there is no wrong,
together we shall go until we die. My, my, my.
An inspiration is what you are to me, inspiration, look... see.
And so today, my world it smiles, your hand in mine, we walk the miles,
Thanks to you it will be done, for you to me are the only one.
Happiness, no more be sad, happiness....I'm glad.
If the sun refused to shine, I would still be loving you.
When mountains crumble to the sea, there will still be you and me.
If I could be anything in the world I would be your teardrop...I would be born in your eyes, live on your cheeks, and die on your lips.
If the sun refused to shine, I would still be loving you.
When mountains crumble to the sea, there will still be you and me.
Kind woman, I give you my all, Kind woman, nothing more.
Little drops of rain whisper of the pain, tears of loves lost in the days gone by.
My love is strong, with you there is no wrong,
together we shall go until we die. My, my, my.
An inspiration is what you are to me, inspiration, look... see.
And so today, my world it smiles, your hand in mine, we walk the miles,
Thanks to you it will be done, for you to me are the only one.
Happiness, no more be sad, happiness....I'm glad.
If the sun refused to shine, I would still be loving you.
When mountains crumble to the sea, there will still be you and me.
hahaha - i was just gonna post that...ok I'll go for another...
You look like gold to me
and I'm not too blind to see
you look like gold
you make me wanna sing
with all the joy you bring
you look like gold
like the rays down from the sun
when a new day has just begun
you look like gold
I've been fooled before
but now I know
I've made the mistake in the past
but now I know the difference
from gold and brass
not the kind of gold you wear
but the kind that can feel my care
you look like gold
some shine when the day is new
but fade when the day is through
but you look like gold
I've been wrong before
but now I know
I've made mistakes in the past
but now I know the difference
from gold and brass
you look like gold to me
and I'm down on bending knees
you look like gold
and I just want you to know
to me you mean so much more
than all the gold
you look like gold
And it's been awhile
Since I could hold my head up high
And it's been awhile
Since I first saw you
And it's been awhile
Since I could stand on my own two feet again
And it's been awhile
Since I could call you
And everything I can't remember
As fucked up as it all may seem
The consequences that I've rendered
I've stretched myself beyond my means
And it's been awhile
Since I can say that I wasn't addicted
And it's been awhile
Since I can say I love myself as well
And it's been awhile
Since I've gone and fucked things up just like I always do
And it's been awhile
But all that shit seems to disappear when I'm with you
And everything I can't remember
As fucked up as it all may seem
The consequences that I've rendered
I've gone and fucked things up again
Why must I feel this way?
Just make this go away
Just one more peaceful day!
And it's been awhile
Since I could look at myself straight
And it's been awhile
Since I said I'm sorry
And it's been awhile
Since I've seen the way the candles light your face
And it's been awhile
But I can still remember just the way you taste
And everything I can't remember
As fucked up as it all may seem to be I know it's me
I cannot blame this on my father
He did the best he could for me
And it's been awhile
Since I could hold my head up high
And it's been awhile
Since I said I'm sorry
"This here's a REQUEST!"
EV intro to Chloe Dancer / Crown of Thorns
10/25/13 Hartford
If you need a bed
or a bite to eat
You can knock on my door
anytime my sweet
Cause I see heaven
when your brown eyes smile
Baby won't you walk with me
for a while
They tell me I'm just wastin' my time
But I'm too sure baby
and you're too fine
So I'll keep after you
until the day you smile
and realize why I've gotta say
Gonna get a shot at you baby
one fine day
Gonna wake up by your side
In the morning sun
Ties that love we've begun
The way you walk
seems to lift my heart
All my troubles
they just drift apart
Feel like a child on Christmas
when you speak
My heart starts jumpin'
and my knees get weak
Gonna get a shot at you baby
one fine day
Gonna wrap you in my arms
shield you from the fray
Dance into the sunset
Dance into your heart
Gonna get a shot at you baby
one fine day...

Choice to live my life extended
You could be the one Ill always love
You could be the one who listens to my deepest inquisitions
You could be the one Ill always love
Ill be there as soon as I can
But Im busy mending broken pieces of the life I had before
First there was the one who challenged
All my dreams and all my balance
She could never be as good as you
You could be my unintended
Choice to live my life extended
You should be the one Ill always love
Ill be there as soon as I can
But Im busy mending broken pieces of the life I had before
Ill be there as soon as I can

With you there's just no measurement
No way to tell what's real from what isn't there
Your eyes they sparkle
That's all changed into lies that drop like acid rain
You washed away the best of me
You don't care
You know you did it
I'm gone
To find someone to live for in this world
There's no light at the end of the tunnel tonight
Just a bridge that I gotta burn
You were wrong
If you think you can walk right through my door
That is just so you
Coming back when I've finally moved on
I'm already gone
Sometimes shattered
Never open
Nothing matters
When you're broken

You act as if you just don’t care
You look as if your going somewhere
But I just cant convince myself
I couldn’t live with no one else

And sit and nurse my broken heart
So lonely
Now no ones knocked upon my door
For a thousand years or more
All made up and nowhere to go
Welcome to this one man show
Just take a seat they’re always free
No surprise no mystery

A bad time, nothing could save him
Alone in a corridor, waiting, locked out
He got up outta there, ran for hundreds of miles
He made it to the ocean, had a smoke in a tree
The wind rose up, set him down on his knee
A wave came crashing like a fist to the jaw
Delivered him wings, "Hey, look at me now"
Arms wide open with the sea as his floor
Oh, power, oh
He's.. flying
Whole…
High.. wide, oh
He floated back down 'cause he wanted to share
His key to the locks on the chains he saw everywhere
But first he was stripped and then he was stabbed
By faceless men, well, fuckers
He still stands
And he still gives his love, he just gives it away
The love he receives is the love that is saved
And sometimes is seen a strange spot in the sky
A human being that was given to fly

I'm stuck with a valuable friend
"I'm happy, hope you're happy too"
One flash of light
but no smoking pistol
I never done good things
I never done bad things
I never did anything out of the blue,
Want an axe to break the ice
Wanna come down right now
[CHORUS]
My mother said
to get things done
You'd better not mess
with Major Tom...~
"Forgive every being,
the bad feelings
it's just me"
but us moody people keep it interesting dont we?!
To find an approach and a way to live
Are we getting something out of this
all-encompassing trip?
To find an approach and a way to live
Are we getting something out of this
all-encompassing trip?
o wow sorree tremor...howeVer, i think it must have been meant for BOWIE'S 'ashes to ashes' song...~
"Forgive every being,
the bad feelings
it's just me"
I can't wait for the weekend to begin
I'm workin' all week long
I dream the days away
I wanna' sing my song
So let the music play
I have to get my kicks and fly tonight
And when the clock strikes 6 on Fri-day night
I need to blow it all away
I can't wait for the weekend to begin
I can't wait for the weekend to begin
I make it - what I can
I try I try
I'm shakin' - up my plan
And I get by
I'm savin' all my soul
And all my pain
So I can lose control
On Sa-turday
I'm gonna' blow it all away
I can't wait for the weekend to begin
I can't wait for the weekend to begin
I can't wait for the weekend to begin
For the weekend to begin
Begin
I can't wait for the weekend to begin
I got to get my fix
And fly tonight
And when the clock strikes 6
On Fri-day night
I'm gonna' blow it all away
I can't wait for the weekend to begin
I can' I can'
I can't wait for the weekend to begin
I can' I can't
I can't wait for the weekend to begin
Just to sit down by your side.
And I would do most anything girl,
To be the apple of your eye.
Troubles they may come and go,
But good times they are the gold.
And if this road gets rocky girl,
Just steady as we go.
Any place you wanna go,
Know I'll be next to you.
If it's treasure baby you're looking for,
I'll search the whole world through.
Know troubles they may come and go,
But good times they're the gold.
So if the road gets rocky girl,
Just steady as we go.
When the storm comes,
You shelter me.
And I don't say a word,
And you know exactly what I mean.
In the darkest times,
You shine on me.
You set me free.
And keep me steady as we go.
So if your heart rings dry my love,
I will fill your cup.
And if your load gets heavy girl,
I will lift you up.
Troubles they may come and go,
But good times be the gold.
So if this road gets rocky girl,
Just steady as we go.
Ah
Hold me,
Shine on me.
Oh, shine, shine,
Shine on me.
Shine, shine
Yeah shine on me.
Hey shine.
"Thousand Mile Wish"
Forgive me if now I wear the face of worry
This time alone could never cause any doubt
But I’ve been cold too long
Such a strange time to find myself coming down as the rain
With all these holes my love,
To fill up from the middle
This storm could stay all night
So can you stay until we close our eyes
Til your dreams hold mine
Just stay until we know we tried one more time
Cause laughing lovers can overcome their closest demons
And they’ll go on and they won’t let go
They saw something that they know
Has never come so close
Can it stay here for us, for now?
Can it stay until we know ourselves?
I’m torn as I tell
You’re the story that I know and fell from
I’m so far into your story I don’t know why
We think we’re in control
When we lie between the lines
We’ll find a line to follow
It’s got to show real soon
Or we’ll never reach this high
We climb a little further
Cause there’s nothing we can’t get around together
Further gets colder until nothing was all that I saw around
So we stay until the ground
That we can’t come down from splits us away
Maybe stars know why we fall
I just wish they were thinking out loud
Oh, I could wish all night
a romancer
I'm a capricorn
and she's a cancer
She saw my picture in a music magazine
When she met me
said she'd get me
Touched her hips and told me that she'd let me
I took her hand,
baby this is what I said:
I said, " baby, baby, dont you hesitate
cause I just cant wait..
Lady, wont you take me down to my knees
You can do what you please..
Come on and love me!"
I'm a man
I'm no baby
And you're lookin every inch a lady
You're good lookin
and you're lookin like you should be good
You were distant
now you're nearer
I can feel your face inside the mirror
The lights are out
and I can feel you, baby, with my hand
So baby, baby, dont you hesitate
cause I just cant wait
Lady, wont you take me down to my knees
You can do what you please...
Come on and love me!

But some of ours are easy to identify
Look me in the eye, and ask for forgiveness
We'll make a pact to never speak that word again
Yes, you are my friend
We all have something that digs at us
At least we dig each other
So when weakness turns my ego up
I know you'll count on the me from yesterday
If I turn into another
Dig me up from under what is covering
The better part of me
Sing this song
Remind me that we'll always have each other
When everything else is gone
We all have a sickness
That cleverly attaches and multiplies
No matter how we try
We all have someone that digs at us
At least we dig each other
So when sickness turns my ego up
I know you'll act as a clever medicine
If I turn into another
Dig me up from under what is covering
The better part of me
Sing this song
Remind me that we'll always have each other
When everything else is gone.
All this feels strange and untrue
And I won't waste a minute without you
My bones ache, my skin feels cold
And I'm getting so tired and so old
The anger swells in my guts
And I won't feel these slices and cuts
I want so much to open your eyes
Cos I need you to look into mine
Tell me that you'll open your eyes
Get up, get out, get away from these liars
Cos they don't get your soul or your fire
Take my hand, knot your fingers through mine
And we'll walk from this dark room for the last time
Every minute from this minute now
We can do what we like anywhere
I want so much to open your eyes
Cos I need you to look into mine
Tell me that you'll open your eyes
All this feels strange and untrue
And I won't waste a minute without you
But I cant help falling in love with you
Shall I stay
Would it be a sin
If I cant help falling in love with you
Like a river flows surely to the sea
Darling so it goes
Some things are meant to be
Take my hand, take my whole life too
For I cant help falling in love with you
Like a river flows surely to the sea
Darling so it goes
Some things are meant to be
Take my hand, take my whole life too
For I cant help falling in love with you
For I cant help falling in love with you
No more trying evenings
This American Dream
I am disbelieving.
When the gas in my tank
feels like money in the bank
I’m gonna blow it all this time,
take me one last ride.
For the lights of this city
They only look good when I’m speeding
I wanna leave em all behind me
cause this time
I’m gone
Long gone
This time I'm letting go of it all
So long
Cause this time I'm gone
In the far off distance
As my taillights fade
No one to witness
but they will someday
Feel like a question is forming
And the answers far
I will be what I could be
Once I get out of this town.
For the lights of this city
They’ve lost all of their feeling
Gonna leave em all behind me
cause this time
I’m gone
Long gone
This time I'm letting go of it all
So long
Long gone I'm letting go of it all
yeh this time I'm gone
If nothing is everything
If nothing is everything I’ll have it all
If nothing is everything
then I will have it all.
I am gone.
Sammi: Wanna just break up?
And the feeling is just not there
Not like it was so long ago.
On the empty page before you
You can fill in what you care
Try to make it new before you go.
Take the simple case of the sarge
Who can't go back to war
'Cause the hippies
tore down everything
that he was fighting for.
Or the lovers on the blankets
That the city turned to whores
With memories
of green kissed by the sun.
You can say the soul is gone
And close another door
Just be sure
that yours is not the one.
And I'm singing for the stringman
Who lately lost his wife
There is no dearer friend of mine
That I know in this life.
On his shoulder rests a violin
For his head where chaos reigns
But his heart
can't find a simple way
To live with all those things.
All those things
He's a stringman
A stringman
All those strings to pull
More than a lot
You gave me nothing
Now its all I got
Were one
But were not the same
Well, we hurt each other
Then we do it again
You say
Love is a temple
Love a higher law
Love is a temple
Love the higher law
You ask me to enter
But then you make me crawl
And I cant be holding on
To what you got
When all you got is hurt.........................

I think that you should suck my dick
cuz I don't give a fuck who you are or who you came with
take your nose out the air, your attitude home
get off your fuckin' phone when your in my zone
and while your at it, why don't you eat my shit
I'll take a polaroid and write a certificate
I try to be gental, but man your just too thick
Optimus Rhyme - I heart PuBotCs
I´m passing through the doorway now
Everything is upside down
The one that I´m leaving
Is the one I´m really trying to find
I know
It´s so stupid and it´s tearing me down
But a lack of self-confidence
Is keeping me down tonight
All night
I tried telling you everything´s not broken
but you cried when telling me all we had is gone
I´m drifting through the morning breeze
Colors blurring in my eyes
The one that I´m missing
Is the one drifting by my side
I know
It´s so stupid and it´s tearing me down
But a lack of self-confidence
Is keeping me down tonight
All night
And I tried telling you everything´s not broken
But you cried when telling me all we had is gone
And I tried telling you everything´s alright
‘Cause I feel that deep down inside you I´m still there
Tried, tried, tried, tried
And I tried telling you everything´s alright
Cause I feel that deep down inside you I´m still there
all my hopes, anger, pride and shame
make yourself a pact, not to shut doors on the past
just for today,... I am free
I will not lose my faith
It's an inside job today
I know this one thing well,...
I used to try and kill love, it was the highest sin
breathing insecurity out and in
Searching hope, I'm shown the way to run straight
pursuing the greater way for all,... human light.
How I choose to feel,... Is how I am.
How I choose to feel,... Is how I am.
I will not lose my faith
It's an inside job today
Holding on, the light of night
On my knees to rise and fix my broken soul
Again.
Let me run into the rain
To be a human light again
Let me run into the rain
To shine a human light today
Life comes from within your heart and desire
Life comes from within my heart and desire
Life comes from within your heart and desire
Sammi: Wanna just break up?
I'd meet girls like you
She also told me stay away
You'll never know what you'll catch
Just the other day I heard
Of a soldier's falling off
Some Indonesian junk
That's going 'round
Mommy's allright, Daddy's allright
They just seem a little weird
Surrender, surrender
But don't give yourself away
Father says your mother's right
She's really up on things
Before we married Mommy served
On the WACs in the Philippines
Now I had heard the WACs recruited
Old maids for the war
But Mommy isn't one of those
I've known her all these years
Mommy's allright, Daddy's allright
They just seem a little weird
Surrender, surrender
But don't give yourself away
Whatever happened to all this season's
Losers of the year
Every time I got to thinking
Where'd they disappear
Then I woke up, Mom and Dad
Are rolling on the couch
Rolling numbers, rock and rolling
Got my Kiss records out
Mommy's allright, Daddy's allright
They just seem a little weird
Surrender, surrender
But don't give yourself away
Away......
~Cheap Trick
simply b/c i sooooooo love this gabriel tune!
Love To Be Loved
Peter Gabriel
[Aaaaahi, byeeee]
So, you know how people are
When it's all gone much too far
The way their minds are made
Still, there's something you should know
That I could not let show
That fear of letting go
And in this moment, I need to be needed
With this darkness all around me, I like to be liked
In this emptiness and fear, I want to be wanted
'Cause I love to be loved
I love to be loved [x2]
Yes, I love to be loved
I cry the way that babies cry
The way they can't deny
The way they feel
Words, they climb all over you
'Til they uncover you
From where you hide
And in this moment, I need to be needed
When my self-esteem is sinking, I like to be liked
In this emptiness and fear,
I want to be wanted
'Cause I love to be loved
I love to be loved [x2]
Oh I love to be loved
This old familiar craving
I've been here before, this way of behaving
Don't know who the hell I'm saving anymore
Let it pass let it go let it leave
From the deepest place I grieve
This time I believe
And I let go [x2]
I can let go of it
Though it takes all the strength in me
And all the world can see
I'm losing such a central part of me
I can let go of it
You know I mean it
You know that I mean it
I recognize how much I've lost
But I cannot face the cost
'Cause I love to be loved
Yes I love to be loved
I love to be loved
[x3]
I love to be loved
I love to be loved
Yes I love to be loved
and . . . *our* song . . .
the lyrics aren't quite right, but eh well the sentiment is.
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 go away
don't you go away...yea, yea, yeeeeaaaaa
happy, happy valentine's day!
Let's just breathe...
I am myself like you somehow
(Page/Plant)
If the sun refused to shine, I would still be loving you.
When mountains crumble to the sea, there will still be you and me.
Kind woman, I give you my all, Kind woman, nothing more.
Little drops of rain whisper of the pain, tears of loves lost in the days gone by.
My love is strong, with you there is no wrong,
together we shall go until we die. My, my, my.
An inspiration is what you are to me, inspiration, look... see.
And so today, my world it smiles, your hand in mine, we walk the miles,
Thanks to you it will be done, for you to me are the only one.
Happiness, no more be sad, happiness....I'm glad.
If the sun refused to shine, I would still be loving you.
When mountains crumble to the sea, there will still be you and me.
hahaha - i was just gonna post that...ok I'll go for another...
and I'm not too blind to see
you look like gold
you make me wanna sing
with all the joy you bring
you look like gold
like the rays down from the sun
when a new day has just begun
you look like gold
I've been fooled before
but now I know
I've made the mistake in the past
but now I know the difference
from gold and brass
not the kind of gold you wear
but the kind that can feel my care
you look like gold
some shine when the day is new
but fade when the day is through
but you look like gold
I've been wrong before
but now I know
I've made mistakes in the past
but now I know the difference
from gold and brass
you look like gold to me
and I'm down on bending knees
you look like gold
and I just want you to know
to me you mean so much more
than all the gold
you look like gold
And it's been awhile
Since I could hold my head up high
And it's been awhile
Since I first saw you
And it's been awhile
Since I could stand on my own two feet again
And it's been awhile
Since I could call you
And everything I can't remember
As fucked up as it all may seem
The consequences that I've rendered
I've stretched myself beyond my means
And it's been awhile
Since I can say that I wasn't addicted
And it's been awhile
Since I can say I love myself as well
And it's been awhile
Since I've gone and fucked things up just like I always do
And it's been awhile
But all that shit seems to disappear when I'm with you
And everything I can't remember
As fucked up as it all may seem
The consequences that I've rendered
I've gone and fucked things up again
Why must I feel this way?
Just make this go away
Just one more peaceful day!
And it's been awhile
Since I could look at myself straight
And it's been awhile
Since I said I'm sorry
And it's been awhile
Since I've seen the way the candles light your face
And it's been awhile
But I can still remember just the way you taste
And everything I can't remember
As fucked up as it all may seem to be I know it's me
I cannot blame this on my father
He did the best he could for me
And it's been awhile
Since I could hold my head up high
And it's been awhile
Since I said I'm sorry

or a bite to eat
You can knock on my door
anytime my sweet
Cause I see heaven
when your brown eyes smile
Baby won't you walk with me
for a while
They tell me I'm just wastin' my time
But I'm too sure baby
and you're too fine
So I'll keep after you
until the day you smile
and realize why I've gotta say
Gonna get a shot at you baby
one fine day
Gonna wake up by your side
In the morning sun
Ties that love we've begun
The way you walk
seems to lift my heart
All my troubles
they just drift apart
Feel like a child on Christmas
when you speak
My heart starts jumpin'
and my knees get weak
Gonna get a shot at you baby
one fine day
Gonna wrap you in my arms
shield you from the fray
Dance into the sunset
Dance into your heart
Gonna get a shot at you baby
one fine day...
