Lyrics of the moment

I wish I was a neutron bomb, for once I could go off
I wish I was a sacrifice that somehow still lived on
I wish I was a sentimental ornament you hung on
The Christmas tree, I wish I was the star that went on top
I wish I was the evidence, I wish I was the sound
of 50 million hands upraised and open towards the sky
I wish I was a sailor with someone who waited for me
I wish I was as fortunate, as fortunate as me!
I wish I was a messenger and all the news was good
I wish I was the full moon shining off her Camaro's hood
I wish I was a living being at home behind the sun
I wish I was the souvenir you kept your house key on
I wish I was the pedal brake that you depended on
I wish I was the verb 'to trust' and never let you down
I wish I was a radio song, the one that you couldn't turn off
I wish...
I wish...
I guess it never stops&&&&&&&&&&&&&&0 -
Sheets of empty canvas, untouched sheets of clay
Her legs spread out before me as her body once did
All five horizons revolved around her soul
As the earth to the sun
Now the air I tasted and breathed has taken a turn
Ooh, and all I taught her was everything
Ooh, I know she gave me all that she wore
And now my bitter hands chafe beneath the clouds
Of what was everything?
Oh, the pictures have all been washed in black, tattooed Everything...
I take a walk outside
I'm surrounded by some kids at play
I can feel their laughter, so why do I sear
Oh, and twisted thoughts that spin round my head
I'm spinning, oh, I'm spinning
How quick the sun can, drop away
And now my bitter hands cradle broken glass
Of what was everything
All the pictures have all been washed in black, tattooed everything...
All the love gone bad turned my world to black
Tattooed all I see, all that I am, all I'll be...yeah...
Uh huh...uh huh...ooh...
I know someday you'll have a beautiful life, I know you'll be a star
In somebody else's sky, but why, why, why
Can't it be, can't it be mine...
Wish you were here...
♥~RIP Dad0 -
It's been a mystery
but still they try to see
why something good can hurt so bad
Caught on a one way street
the taste of bittersweet
Love will survive somehow, some way
One love feeds the fire
One heart burns desire
one love, who's crying now
Two hearts born to roam
Who'll be the lonely one
one love, who's crying now
So many stormy nights
So many wrongs or rights
Neither could change their headstrong ways
And in a lover's rage
they tore another page
The fighting is worth the love they save
Only so many tears you can cry
Till the heartache is over
And now you can say your love
Will never die
Whoa ooh oh ooh oh
Wah hoo oh hoo oh
Wish you were here...
♥~RIP Dad0 -
I took my love and I took it down
I climbed a mountain and I turned around
And I saw my reflection in the snow covered hills
'Til the landslide brought me down
Oh, mirror in the sky
What is love?
Can the child within my heart rise above?
Can I sail thru the changing ocean tides?
Can I handle the seasons of my life?
Mmm Mmm... I don't know... Mmm Mmm... Mmm Mmm...
Well, I've been afraid of changing
'Cause I've built my life around you
But time makes you bolder
Children get older
I'm getting older too
So...
I've been afraid of changing
'Cause I, I´ve built my life around you
But time makes you bolder
Children get older
I'm getting older too...
I'm getting older too...
So, take this love, take it down
Oh if you climb a mountain and you turn around
If you see my reflection in the snow covered hills
Well the landslide will bring you down, down
And If you see my reflection in the snow covered hills
Well maybe... The landslide will bring you down
Well well... the landslide will bring you down
Wish you were here...

Is it getting better
Or do you feel the same
Will it make it easier on you now
You got someone to blame
You say...
One love
One life
When it's one need
In the night
One love
We get to share it
Leaves you baby if you
Don't care for it
Did I disappoint you
Or leave a bad taste in your mouth
You act like you never had love
And you want me to go without
Well it's...
Too late
Tonight
To drag the past out into the light
We're one, but we're not the same
We get to
Carry each other
Carry each other
One...
Have you come here for forgiveness
Have you come to raise the dead
Have you come here to play Jesus
To the lepers in your head
Did I ask too much
More than a lot
You gave me nothing
Now it's all I got
We're one
But we're 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 can't be holding on
To what you got
When all you got is hurt
One love
One blood
One life
You got to do what you should
One life
With each other
Sisters
Brothers
One life
But we're not the same
We get to
Carry each other
Carry each other
One...life
One
Wish you were here...

Those who start Wars, never fight them
And those who fight Wars, they never like them
And those who write Laws, can recite them
And those who fight Laws, they live & die by them"
Those who build Walls are pretending
That Forever they can defend them
Those who dam streams can build fountains
Those of us who just let them run Free
Can move mountains.....

Sometimes there's no star shining
Scouting the edge of the universe
Sometimes you can't see the horizon
Between the ocean and the earth
And just when you're thinking about slinkin' down
I'm gonna pull you up!
I'm gonna pull ya round!
Did I remind you of that scene?
Our spirit is our gasoline
May I remind you of that scene?
Let a million mirror balls beam
We were arms aloft in Aberdeen
May I remind you of that scene?
And you say "living is nothing but hassles"
In a Manilla envelope rain
And driving coal all night to Newcastle
It's getting to be, a repetitive strain!
but just when you thought you're goin' down the drain
May I remind you of that scene?
Our spirit is our gasoline
May I remind you of that scene?
We were arms aloft in Aberdeen
May I remind you of that scene?
Let a million mirror balls beam
May I remind you of that scene?
I'm gonna pull you up, I'm gonna pull ya round!
May I remind you of that scene?
Our spirit is our gasoline
May I remind you of that scene?
We were arms aloft in Aberdeen
May I remind you of that scene?
Let a million mirror balls beam
May I remind you of that scene?
We were arms aloft in Aberdeen
They say the stars can't see their rays
Nor can they count their numbered days
No flower can says what perfume is
We got all this and bird and dis
May I remind you of that scene?
We were arms aloft in Aberdeen
May I remind you of that scene?&&&&&&&&&&&&&&0 -
I hope some day you'll have a beautiful life...
I hope you'll be a star...
In somebody else's sky...
But, why, why, why can it be, can it be mine......
Wish you were here...

One...Two...One...Two
Know a man
His face seemed pulled and tense
Like he's ridin' on a motorbike
In the strongest winds
So I approach with tact
Suggest that he should relax
But he's always movin' much too fast
Said he'll see me on the flip side
On this trip he's taken for a ride
He's been takin' too much on
There he goes with his perfectly unkept clothes
There he goes
He's yet to come back
But I've seen his picture
It doesn't look the same up on the rack
We go way back
I wonder 'bout his insides
It's like his thoughts are too big for his size
He's been taken...where, I don't know
Off he goes with his perfectly unkept clothes
There he goes
And now I rub my eyes, for he has returned
It seems my preconceptions are what should have been burned
For he still smiles... And he's still strong
Nothing's changed but the surroundin' bullshit
That has grown
And now he's home and we're laughin'
Like we always did, my same old, same old friend
Until a quarter to ten
I saw the strain creep in
He seems distracted and I know just what is going to happen next
Before his first step, he's off again
Wish you were here...

I hear the waves, sun beating down on my shoulders
its a near perfect day, wishing I wouldn't get any older
soak it all in - its a game you can't win - enjoy the ride...
and if you're to busy talkin, you're not busy listening, to hear what the land has to say...
quite your mind....*********************************************************************************************0 -
We were born before the wind
also younger than the sun
ere the bonnie boat was won as we sailed into the mystic
hark, now hear the sailors cry
smell the sea and feel the sky
Let your soul and spirit fly into the mystic...
and when that fog horn blows I want to hear it
I don't have to fear it...
and I want to Rock your Gypsy Soul...
just like way back in the days of old
and magnificently we will flow into the mystic...
when that fog horn blows you know I will be coming home
and when that fog horn whistle blows, I got to hear it
I dont have to fear it...
And I want to Rock your Gypsy Soul...
just like way back when the days of old
and together we will flow into the mystic....*********************************************************************************************0 -
For someone very special to me....
so we live in our old van, travel all across this land
Me and You...
we'll end up hand in hand, somewhere down on the sand
Just Me and You...
Just as Free, free as we'll ever be...
just as free, free as we'll ever be...
drive until the city lights, dissolve into a Country Sky
just Me and You...
lay underneath the harvest moon, do all the thing that Lovers do...
just Me and You...
just a free, free as we'll ever be, just a free, free as we'll ever be...
No we don't have a lot of money
no we don't have a lot of money
no we don't have a lot of money
all we need is love...
we're free as we'll ever be, just as free, free as we'll ever be...
so we live in our old van
travel all across this land
Me and You...

I saw myself today
I`ve smiled and looked away
Saddened by my visible life
Sorrow cut me like a knife
Nobody knows you without any doubt
Nobody wants to know you, when you`re down and out
So sing a hymn for my soul
Stand by me as I grow
I`m just trying to climb up nine hills in seven short days
Sing a hymn for my soul
I saw myself today
Didn`t like what I had to say
So right, I could only be wrong
Trouble is when I`m alone
No doubt, no self-control, not a reason to cry
I feel like empty rain, through an empty sky
So Sing a hymn for my soul
Stand by me as I grow
I`m just trying to climb up nine hills in seven short days
So sing a hymn for my soul
I saw myself today
I looked good, yes I had to say
Polished TV won`t shine no more
Flyin` dragons surround my door
Even when I go crazy
To my own self I`ll be true
Ain`t nobody`s business what I do
So sing a hymn for my soul
Stand by me as I grow
I`m just trying to climb up nine hills in seven short days
Sing a hymn for my soul
Tell me about it
Sing a hymn for my soul
Sing a hymn for my soul
Stand by me as I grow
Won`t you stand by me
Little girl, you know it
Sing a hymn for my soul
One more
Sing a hymn for my soul
Stand by me as I grow
I`m just tryin` to climb up nine hills in seven short days
Sing a hymn for my soul
Let`s go home
Sing a hymn for my soul
Sing a hymn for my soul
Stand by me as I grow
Won`t you do that for me
Take me all the way home
Sing a hymn for my soul
Sing a hymn for my soul
Come on baby
Stand by me as I grow

I had a dream that we were lovers,
I had a joke and she would smile when I'd say,
We could blow, blow a fuse in heaven
Well today, all the lights went out in heaven.
And I knew that she was all that I needed.

Just gonna stand there...
And watch me burn...
But that's alright...
Because I like the way it hurts...
Just gonna stand there...
And hear me cry...
But that's alright...
Because I love the way you lie...
I love the way you lie...
Wish you were here...

I got my toes in the water, ass in the sand
not a worry in the world, a cold beer in my hand
Life is good today, Life is good today...
Well, the plane touched down just about 3 o'clock
and the city's still on my mind
bikinis and palm trees danced in my head
I was still in the baggage line
concrete and cars are there own prison bars
like this life I'm living in....
But the plane brought me farther
I'm surrounded by water
and I'm not going back again...*********************************************************************************************0 -
Yeah I'm leaving GA
and if it weren't for the tequila and pretty senoritas
I'd have no reason to stay
gonna lay in the hot sun and roll a big fat one
and grab my guitar and play...
four days flew by like a drunk Friday night as the summer drew to an end
they can't believe that I just couldn't leave
and I bid adieu to my friends
because my barender she's from the islands
her body's been kissed by the sun
and coconut replaces the smell of the bar and I don't know if its her or the sun....*********************************************************************************************0 -
Give A Little Bit lyrics
Songwriters: Hodgson, Roger; Davies, Rick;
Give a little bit
Give a little bit of your love to me
I'll give a little bit
I'll give a little bit of my love to you
There's so much that we need to share
So send a smile and show you care
(Alright)
I'll give a little bit
I'll give a little bit of my life for you
So give a little bit
Give a little bit of your time to me
See the man with the lonely eyes
Oh, take his hand, you'll be surprised
(Oh take his hand)
Give a little bit
Give a little bit of your love to me
I'll give a little bit
I'll give a little bit of my life for you
Now's the time that we need to share
So find yourself, we're on our way back home
Ohh goin' home
Don't you need, don't you need to feel at home?0 -
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,
can 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 someday
Wild Horses, couldn't drag me away. Wild, wild horses, we'll
ride them someday...
Wish you were here...
♥~RIP Dad0
