How I love that song Mariposa

You’re gonna walk on home
You’re gonna walk alone
You’re gonna see this through
Don’t let them get to you

Shame

Love is good and love is kind
Love is drunk and love is blind
Love is good and love is mine
Love is drunk all the time

Shame

You’re gonna walk on home
You’re gonna walk alone
You’re gonna walk so far
You’re gonna wonder who you are

Shame

Love is good and love is kind
Love is good and love is blind
Love is good and love is mine
Love is good all the time

Hello goodbye, you know you made us cry...

It is such a beautiful song!

Watching Tim Burton's 'The Nightmare Before Christmas' right now, the songs are just unforgettable. :cool:

Jack's Lament
The Nightmare Before Christmas
Catherine O'Hara / Danny Elfman

I sense there’s something in the wind
That feels like tragedy’s at hand
And though I’d like to stand by him
Can’t shake this feeling that I have
The worst is just around the bend

And does he notice my feelings for him?
And will he see how much he means to me?
I think it’s not to be

What will become of my dear friend?
Where will his actions lead us then?
Although I’d like to join the crowd
In their enthusiastic cloud
Try as I may, it doesn’t last

And will we ever end up together?
No, I think not, it’s never to become
For I am not the one...

Warning
Incubus

Bat your eyes girl
Be otherworldly
Count your blessings
Seduce a stranger
What's so wrong with being happy?
Kudos to those who see through sickness

When she woke in the morning
She knew that her life had passed her by
And she called out a warning
Don't ever let life pass you by

I suggest we learn to love ourselves
Before it's made illegal
When will we learn?
When will we change?
Just in time to see it all fall down
Those left standing will make millions
Writing books on the way it should have been

When she woke in the morning
She knew that her life had passed her by
And she called out a warning
Don't ever let life pass you by

Floating in this cosmic jacuzzi
We are like frogs oblivious
To the water starting to boil
No one flinches
We all float face down

When she woke in the morning
She knew that her life had passed her by
And she called out a warning
Don't ever let life pass you by

Great song, dream.
And so is this one...

don't feel like home, she's a little out...
and all these words elope, it's nothing like your poem
putting in, inputting in, don't feel like methadone
a scratching voice all alone, there's nothing like your baritone
it's nothing as it seems, the little that she needs, it's home
the little that she sees, is nothing she concedes, it's home
one uninvited chromosome, a blanket like the ozone
it's nothing as it seems, all that she needs, it's home
the little that she frees, is nothing she believes
saving up a sunny day, something maybe two tone
anything of his own, a chip off the cornerstone
who's kidding, rainy day
a one way ticket headstone
occupations overthrown, a whisper through a megaphone
it's nothing as it seems, the little that she needs, it's home
the little that she sees, is nothing she concedes, it's home
and all that she frees, a little bittersweet, it's home
it's nothing as it seems, the little that you see, it's home...

Pictures of You
The Cure

i've been looking so long at these pictures of you
that i almost believe that they're real
i've been living so long with my pictures of you
that i almost believe that the pictures
are all i can feel

remembering you standing quiet in the rain
as i ran to your heart to be near
and we kissed as the sky fell in holding you close
how i always held close in your fear
remembering you
running soft through the night you were bigger
and brigther than the snow
and screamed at the make-beleive screamed at the sky
and you finally found all your courage to
let it all go

remembering you fallen into my arms crying
for the death of your heart
you were stone white so delicate lost in the cold
you were always so lost in the dark
remembering you
how you used to be slow drowned
you were angels so much more than everything
oh hold for the last time then slip away quietly
open my eyes but i never see anything

if only i had thought of the right words
i could have hold on to your heart
if only i'd thought of the right words
i wouldn't be breaking apart
all my pictures of you

Looking so long at these pictures of you
but i never hold on to your heart
looking so long for the words to be true
but always just breaking
apart my pictures of you

there was nothing in the world
that i ever wanted more than to feel you deep in my heart
there was nothing in the world
that i ever wanted more than to never feel the breaking
apart
all my pictures of you

Waterloo Sunset
Written by: R. D. Davies

Dirty old river, must you keep rolling
Flowing into the night
People so busy, makes me feel dizzy
Taxi light shines so bright
But I don't need no friends
As long as I gaze on Waterloo sunset
I am in paradise

Every day I look at the world from my window
But chilly, chilly is the evening time
Waterloo sunset's fine

Terry meets Julie, Waterloo Station
Every Friday night
But I am so lazy, don't want to wander
I stay at home at night
But I don't feel afraid
As long as I gaze on Waterloo sunset
I am in paradise

Every day I look at the world from my window
But chilly, chilly is the evening time
Waterloo sunset's fine

Millions of people swarming like flies 'round Waterloo underground
But Terry and Julie cross over the river
Where they feel safe and sound
And the don't need no friends
As long as they gaze on Waterloo sunset
They are in paradise

Waterloo sunset's fine

plaque on the wall says that no one's slept here
it's rare to come upon a bridge that has not been around or been stepped on
whatever the notion we laced in our prayers
the man upstairs is used to all of this noise
i'm through with screaming
and echoes... that nobody hears
it goes
it goes
it goes
like echoes... that nobody hears
it goes
it goes
it goes
like...
we're faithful...
we all believe, we all believe it
we're faithful...
oh we all believe, we all believe it
we're faithful...
we all believe, we all believe it
and echoes... that nobody hears
it goes
we're faithful...
we all believe, we all believe it
so faithful...
oh we all believe, we all believe it
m.y.t.h is belief in the game
controls that keeps us in a box of fear
we never listen
voice inside, so drowned out
drowned you are, you are
you are a furry thing
and everything is you
me you, you me
it's all related
what's a boy, to do
just be a darling
and i will be too
faithful
to you

I got a room at the top of the world tonight
I can see everything tonight
I got a room where everyone
Can have a drink and forget those things
That went wrong in their life

I got a room at the top of the world tonight
I got a room at the top of the world tonight
I got a room at the top of the world tonight
And I ain't comin' down, I ain't comin' down

I got someone who loves me tonight
I got over a thousand dollars in the bank
And I'm all right
Look deep in the eyes of love
Look deep in the eyes of love
And find out what you were looking for

I got a room at the top of the world tonight
I got a room at the top of the world tonight
I got a room at the top of the world tonight
And I ain't comin' down, no I ain't comin' down

I wish I could feel you tonight, little one
You're so far away
I wanna reach out and touch your heart
Yeah like they do in those things on TV, I love you
Please love me, I'm not so bad
And I love you so

I got a room at the top of the world tonight
I got a room at the top of the world tonight
I got a room at the top of the world tonight
And I ain't comin' down, no I ain't comin' down
I ain't comin' down

She brings the sunshine to a rainy afternoon;
She puts the sweetness in, stirs it with a spoon.
She watches for my moods, never brings me down;
She puts the sweetness in, all around.
She knows just what to say to make me feel so good inside.
And when I’m all alone I feel I don’t want to hide, hide, hide.

Today she brought me in, told me where she’d been;
She put my mind at rest, put the sweetness in.
I’ll ask her for some time to go and look around;
She puts the sweetness in with a sound.
She knows just what to say to make a sunny day.
And when I’m all alone I really don’t feel that way.
Tell me, how would you feel with no world
Of your own and nobody to hold?
I just can’t see the way; I’m so glad it’s today
And you’re here, you’re here.

She brings the sunshine to a rainy afternoon;
She puts the sweetness in, stirs it with a spoon.
She watches for my moods, never brings me down;
She puts the sweetness in, all around.
She knows just what to say to make me feel so good inside.
And when I’m all alone I really don’t feel that way.

Oh how I need her so,
I know she’ll never go. doo doo doo doot n doo.
She’ll never leave me, believe me, no. doo doo doo doot n doo.
She’ll never go, no no no no no no no no no no no no.

i seem to recognize your face
haunting, familiar, yet i can't seem to place it
cannot find the candle of thought to light your name
lifetimes are catching up with me
all these changes taking place, i wish i'd seen the place
but no one's ever taken me
hearts and thoughts they fade, fade away...
hearts and thoughts they fade, fade away...
i swear i recognize your breath
memories like fingerprints are slowly raising
me, you wouldn't recall, for i'm not my former
it's hard when, you're stuck upon the shelf
i changed by not changing at all, small town predicts my fate
perhaps that's what no one wants to see
i just want to scream...hello...
my god its been so long, never dreamed you'd return
but now here you are, and here i am
hearts and thoughts they fade...away...
hearts and thoughts they fade...away...
hearts and thoughts they fade, fade away...
hearts and thoughts they fade...

Tiny Vessels
Death Cab for Cutie

This is the moment that you know
That you told her that you loved her but you don't.
You touch her skin and then you think
That she is beautiful but she don't mean a thing to me.
Yeah, she is beautiful but she don't mean a thing to me.

I spent two weeks in Silverlake
The California sun cascading down my face
There was a girl with light brown streaks
And she was beautiful but she didn't mean a thing to me.
Yeah she was beautiful but she didn't mean a thing to me.

Wanted to believe in all the words that i was speaking
As we moved together in the dark
And all the friends that i was telling
And all the playful misspellings
And every bite i gave you left a mark

Tiny vessels oozed into your neck
And formed the bruises
That you said you didn't want to fade
But they did and so did i that day

All i see are dark grey clouds
In the distance moving closer with every hour
So when you ask "was something wrong?"
That i think "you're damn right there is but we can't talk about it now.
No, we can't talk about it now."

So one last touch and then you'll go
And we'll pretend that it meant something so much more
But it was vile, and it was cheap
And you are beautiful but you don't mean a thing to me
Yeah you are beautiful but you don't mean a thing to me [x2]

if someone else showed you the way
would you take the wheel and steer?
it hurts me that you're not ashamed
of what you're doing here
if they jumped off a bridge
would you meet them on the ground?
or would you try and claim
that it never made a sound

[chorus]
everyone plays the hand they're dealt
and learns to walk through life themselves
not everything in life is handed on a plate
when people think your words are true
it doesn't matter what you do
i sold my soul to get here
how 'bout you?

so you choose to force your hand
what a strange way to make freinds
and you always change the rules
so the drama never ends
and you blindly go through life
judging only by what its worth
just try not to forget
that the meek inherit earth

[chorus]

so please don't take offense
this is just a point of view
cuz i'm the only one who
will say these things to you

[chorus]

True Love Waits
Radiohead

I'll drown my beliefs
To have you be in peace
I'll dress like your niece
To wash your swollen feet

Just don't leave
Don't leave

I'm not living
I'm just killing time
Your tiny hands
Your crazy kitten smile

Just don't leave
Don't leave

And true love waits
In haunted attics
And true love lives
On lollipops and crisps

Just don't leave
Don't leave

Just don't leave
Don't leave

So Tonight That I Might See - Mazzy Star


come up crash with the muses fells dust into ash
come so close that i might see the light inside me i might see
let me hold you tight and arms tight and arms you lost your chance
come so close that i might see the crash of light come down on me
with good luck i'll find the dark stop me now
find me to your heart
let me hold you tight like rain and sunshine on a rainy day
see the lights
come so close that i might see see the light come down on me
searching like the fresh goes by small like wind refuse to die
free me now so i can see the taste of wind who lock me
does the wind indeed like me
does the wind indeed like me
with good luck i find the dark stop me now
find me to your heart
let me hold you tight like rain and sunshine on a rainy day
let me hold you tight and arms tight and arms you lost your chance
come so close that i might see the crash of light come down on me
the crash of light come down on me
the crash of light come down on me
let me hold you tight and arms tight and arms you lost your chance
come so close that i might see the crash of light come down on me
with spin luck i'll find the dark stop me now find me to your heart
the crash of light come down on me
so tonight the crash goes by
small like wind and refuse to die
the crash of light come down on me
come so close that i might see see the light come down on me
i hold you tight like rain
sunshine on a rainy day
sunshine on a rainy day

I've been a bad bad girl
I've been careless with a delicate man
And it's a sad sad world
When a girl will break a boy
Just because she can
Don't you tell me to deny it
I've done wrong and I want to
Suffer for my sins
I've come to you 'cause I need
Guidance to be true
And I just don't know where I can begin

What I need is a good defense
'Cause I'm feeling like a criminal
And I need to be redeemed
To the one I've sinned against
Because he's all I ever knew of love

Heaven help me for the way I am
Save me from these evil deeds
Before I get them done
I know tomorrow brings the consequence
At hand
But I keep living this day like
The next will never come

Oh help me but don't tell me
To deny it
I've got to cleanse myself
Of all these lies till I'm good
Enough for him
I've got a lot to lose and I'm
Bettin' high
So I'm begging you before it ends
Just tell me where to begin

What I need is a good defense
'Cause I'm feeling like a criminal
And I need to be redeemed
To the one I've sinned against
Because he's all I ever knew of love

Let me know the way
Before there's hell to pay
Give me room to lay the law and let me go
I've got to make a play
To make my lover stay
So what would an angel say
The devil wants to know

What I need is a good defense
'Cause I'm feeling like a criminal
And I need to be redeemed
To the one I've sinned against
Because he's all I ever knew of love

What I need is a good defense
'Cause I'm feeling like a criminal...

Childhood living is easy to do
The things you wanted I bought them for you
Graceless lady you know who I am
You know I can't let you slide through my hands

Wild horses couldn't drag me away
Wild, wild horses, couldn't drag me away

I watched you suffer a dull aching pain
Now you decided to show me the same
No sweeping exits or offstage lines
Could make me feel bitter or treat you unkind

Wild horses couldn't drag me away
Wild, wild horses, couldn't drag me away

I know I dreamed you a sin and a lie
I have my freedom but I don't have much time
Faith has been broken, tears must be cried
Let's do some living after we die

Wild horses couldn't drag me away
Wild, wild horses, we'll ride them some day

Wild horses couldn't drag me away
Wild, wild horses, we'll ride them some day

clouds roll by
reeling is what they say
or is it just my way
wind goes by
low light
sidetracked
low light
can't see my tracks
your 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
low light
eyesight
low light
i need the light
i'll find my way from wrong
what's real, our dream i see

"It's time to move on, time to get going
What lies ahead i have no way of knowing
But under my feet, baby, grass is growing
It's time to move on, it' s time to get going

Broken skyline, movin' through the airport
She's an honest defector
Conscientious objector
Now her own protector

Broken skyline, which way to love land
Which way to something better
Which way to fo rgiveness
Which way do, i go

It's time to move on, time to get going
What lies ahead i have no way of knowing
But under my feet, baby, grass is growing
It's time to move on, it's time to get going

Sometime later, getting the words wrong
Wasting the meaning, and losing the rhyme
Nauseous adrenaline
Like breakin' up a dog fight
Like a deer in the headlights
Frozen in real time
I'm losing my mind

It's time to move on, time to get going
Wh at lies ahead i have no way of knowing
But under my feet, baby, grass is growing
It's time to move on, it's time to get going"
