    when I need you
    I just close my eyes and I'm with you
    and all that I saw want to give you
    It's only a heartbeat away

    when I need love
    I hold out my hands and I touch love
    I never knew there was so much love
    keeping me warm night and day

    miles and miles of empty space in between us
    the telephone can't take the place of your smile
    but you know I won't be traveling' forever
    it's cold out, but hold out, and do like I do
    when I need you
    I just close my eyes and I'm with you
    and all that I saw wanna give you babe
    it's only a heartbeat away

    it's not easy when the road is your driver
    honey that's a heavy load that we bear
    but you know I won't be traveling a lifetime
    it's cold out but hold out and do like I do
    oh, I need you

    when I need love
    I hold out my hands and I touch love
    I never knew there was so much love
    keeping me warm night and day
    when I need you
    I just close my eyes
    and you're right here by my side
    keeping me warm night and day

    I just hold out my hands
    I just hold out my hand
    and I'm with you darling'
    yes, I'm with you darling'
    all I wanna give you
    it's only a heartbeat away
    oh I need you darling ....

    Once I thought I saw you
    in a crowded hazy bar,
    Dancing on the light
    from star to star.
    Far across the moonbeam
    I know that's who you are,
    I saw your brown eyes
    turning once to fire.

    You are like a hurricane
    There's calm in your eye.
    And I'm gettin' blown away
    To somewhere safer
    where the feeling stays.
    I want to love you but
    I'm getting blown away.

    I am just a dreamer,
    but you are just a dream,
    You could have been
    anyone to me.
    Before that moment
    you touched my lips
    That perfect feeling
    when time just slips
    Away between us
    on our foggy trip.

    You are like a hurricane
    There's calm in your eye.
    And I'm gettin' blown away
    To somewhere safer
    where the feeling stays.
    I want to love you but
    I'm getting blown away.

    You are just a dreamer,
    and I am just a dream.
    You could have been
    anyone to me.
    Before that moment
    you touched my lips
    That perfect feeling
    when time just slips
    Away between us
    on our foggy trip.

    You are like a hurricane
    There's calm in your eye.
    And I'm gettin' blown away
    To somewhere safer
    where the feeling stays.
    I want to love you but
    I'm getting blown away.

    Wish you were here...

  • Oh please let it rain today. This city's so filthy. Like my mind in ways.
    Oh it was the time. Like a clean new taste.
    Smiling eyes before me and tears from my face.

    Wash my love. Wash my love. Wash my love, yeah.

    Sin for sale. Buying just a need. O who planted all the devils seeds?
    And what's the truth? And the truth that lies at home.
    It's on the inside and I can't get it off. Yeah.

    Wash my love. Wash my love. Wash my love, yeah.

    What's clean is pure. But hey, I'm white on the outside. Though I stray.
    What she don't know today might kill us both tomorrow. Bring it back someway.
    Bring it back, back, back... to the clean form. To the pure form.

    Wash my love. Wash my love. Wash my love. Wash my love.
    Wash my love. Wash my love. Wash my love. Yeah
    Wash my ...wash my...wash my love....yeaaaaaaahhhhhhh

  • Underneath this smile lies everything
    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

    thanks Ed, for writing this and expressing what I feel for her




    If I ever were to lose you
    I'd surely lose myself

    Everything I have found dear
    I've not found by myself

    Try and sometimes you'll succeed
    To make this man of me

    All my stolen missing parts
    I've no need for anymore

    I believe
    And I believe cause I can see
    Our future days
    Days of you and me

    Back when I was feeling broken
    I focused on a prayer

    You came deep as any ocean
    Did something out there hear?

    All the complexities and games
    No one wins but somehow they're still played

    All the missing crooked hearts
    They may die but in us they live on

    I believe
    And I believe cause I can see
    Our future days
    Days of you and me

    When hurricanes and cyclones raged
    When winds turned dirt to dust
    When floods they came or tides they raised
    Ever closer became us

    All the promises at sundown
    I've meant them like the rest

    All the demons used to come round
    I'm grateful now they've left

    So persistent in my ways
    Hey Angel I am here to stay
    No resistance, no alarms
    Please, this is just too good to be gone

    I believe
    And I believe cause I can see
    Our future days
    Days of you an me
    You and me
    Days,...
    You and me

    If you want to live
    Treat me good
    If you want to live, live
    I beg you treat me good

    I'm like a walking razor
    Don't you watch my size
    I'm dangerous
    Said I'm dangerous......

    I'm back in the mood for a good Dave Matthews song tonight. :)


    Wanna pack your bags, Something small
    Take what you need and we disappear
    Without a trace we'll be gone, gone
    The moon and the stars can follow the car
    and then when we get to the ocean
    We gonna take a boat to the end of the world
    All the way to the end of the world

    Oh, and when the kids are old enough
    We're gonna teach them to fly

    You and me together, we could do anything, Baby
    You and me together yes, yes [x2]

    You and I, we're not tied to the ground
    Not falling but rising like rolling around
    Eyes closed above the rooftops
    Eyes closed, we're gonna spin through the stars
    Our arms wide as the sky
    We gonna ride the blue all the way to the end of the world
    To the end of the world

    Oh, and when the kids are old enough
    We're gonna teach them to fly

    You and me together, we could do anything, Baby
    You and me together yes, yes

    We can always look back at what we did
    All these memories of you and me baby
    But right now it's you and me forever girl
    And you know we could do better than anything that we did
    You know that you and me, we could do anything

    You and me together, we could do anything, Baby
    You and me together yeah, yeah
    Two of us together, we could do anything, baby
    You and me together yeah, yeah
    Two of us together yeah, yeah
    Two of us together, we could do anything, baby

    WHERE IT TAKES MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
    Speaking as a child of the 90's
  • justamjustam Posts: 21,410
    "Looking For You (I Was)"

    In the medieval night
    'Twas love's design
    And the sky was open
    like a Valentine
    All the lacy lights
    Where wishes fall
    And like Shakespeare's child
    I wished on them all

    Ahh to be your destiny
    was all that I pursued
    I could see the sights
    from the lofty heights
    But my heart obscured the view

    I was looking for you
    Looking for you
    What could I do
    I was looking for you

    Along the black river
    The ambassador jewels
    And you were reflected
    in all that I saw
    In the towers of gold
    In the wheel and wing
    Gripping my senses
    like an ancient claim

    Many is the time I knelt in the light
    appealing to all that I know
    Guide my eyes and steps
    that I may find love true

    [Refrain]

    Come on darlin'
    All that hearts desire
    was written before us
    In the medieval fire
    It was love's design
    In the glittering stars
    Like Shakespeare's child
    To be where you are

    From the Portobello Road
    To the Port of Marseilles
    Where the dervish turns
    Where the wild goats play

    Looking for you
    I was

    You could be my silver spring....
    Blue-green..colors flashin'
    I would be your only dream.....
    Your shinin' autumn....ocean crashin'....
    Don't say that she's pretty....
    and did you say that she loves you...?
    Baby I don't wanna know.


    So I'll begin not to love you...
    Turn around, you'll see me runnin'
    I'll say I loved you years ago...
    And tell myself you never loved me....No......
    Don't say that she's pretty....
    And did you say that she loves you...?
    Baby, I don't wanna know....Oh no.....
    And can you tell me...was it worth it....?
    Baby, I don't wanna know..


    Time cast a spell on you...you won't forget me...
    I know I could've loved you but you would not let me....


    Time cast a spell on you...but you won't forget me...
    (I was such a fool)
    I know I could've loved you, but you would not let me..
    (Give me one more chance)
    I'll follow you down 'til the sound of my voice will haunt you..
    (Haunt you)
    You'll never get away from the sound of the woman that loves you..


    Wish you were here...

    "The sky is painted black
    The smoke pours out the stack
    One hand upon your heart
    One hand behind your back
    You train us how to act
    You keep the fear intact
    The imminent attack
    Everything is right on track"
  • I've used hammers made out of wood
    I have played games with pieces and rules
    I undeciphered tricks at the bar
    But now you're gone, I haven't figured out why
    I've come up with riddles and jokes about war
    I've figured out numbers and what they're for
    I've understood feelings and I've understood words
    But how could you be taken away?

    "Grateful"

    Ours is just another skin
    That simply slips away
    You can rise above it
    It will shed easily

    It all will come out fine
    I've learned it line by line
    One common wire
    One silver thread
    All that you desire
    Rolls on ahead

    Like a ship in a bottle
    Held up to the sun
    Sails ain't going nowhere
    You can count every one
    Until it crashes unto the
    earth
    And simply slips away
    You can hide in the open
    Or just disappear

    Ours is just a craving
    And a twist of the wrist
    Will undo the stopper
    With abrupt tenderness
    Die little sparrow
    And awake
    Singing

    It all will come out fine
    I've learned it line by line
    One common wire
    One silver thread
    All that you desire
    Rolls on ahead
    &&&&&&&&&&&&&&
  • oh.........oh...



    Sing a song of all that love can do
    And I'll sing along
    Sing it my whole life long
    Tell a tale of all it's done to you
    And that won't make you strong when all the hope is gone

    When it all goes wrong
    It's such a different song
    That you sing to yourself

    Barely set the sunshine just for you
    The rain never came, even on winter days
    Now he says the dream was never true
    He won't be the name, says he'll never be the same

    When it all goes wrong
    It's such a different song
    That you sing to yourself

    When it all goes wrong
    It's such a different song
    That you sing to yourself
    "...Dimitri...He talks to me...'.."The Ghost of Greece..".

  • I'm easy come and easy go,
    Now you're not so carefree.
    You found the thorn behind the rose,
    You took it, oh, so badly.

    Lost inside yourself,
    You've gotta break out soon.
    You've gotta try again,
    To hear a brand new tune.

    Oh yeah...

    Once easy come and easy go,
    You just hear sad notes lately.
    You use to fly and chase the wind,
    I don't know you lately.

    Don't take it, oh, so bad,
    Things are gonna change.
    Don't make it, oh, so sad,
    The sun will shine again.

    Oh yeah...

    Please don't lock me out,
    What's it all about?
    I'll change it all completely,
    Won't you let me in,
    Don't you need a friend?
    If I can help, just call me.

    I'm easy come and easy go,
    Don't paint it all so sadly.
    Before you know the light will shine,
    Don't burn out completely.

    Locked inside yourself,
    You've gotta break out soon.
    Come on and try again,
    And hear a different tune.

    Oh yeah...

  • I love you
    From the bottom of my heart
    And that's not gonna change
    but things look grim
    When I am watching you watch him

    I give you
    The best a man can hope to give
    But I'm not feeling brave
    chances are slim
    When I am watching you watch him

    Ohhh What is left to learn
    When he would let you crash and burn
    He never gives attention
    but you still yearn
    Where do I fit in
    When I am watching you watch him

    God only knows why I still wait around
    Except I hate to see you cry
    And I need you
    But there are things I cannot do

    I want you
    When he's playing all his games
    And it gets hard to tell who's the victim
    When I am watching you watch him

    And I love you
    Like a broken record plays
    But I'm a windowpane a phantom limb
    When I am watching you watch him

    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
    'Till 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?

    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

    Well, I've been afraid of changing
    'Cause I, I 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 my love, take it down
    Oh climb a mountain and 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 it down
    Oh oh, the landslide will bring it down

    Wish you were here...

    Goin' down to Lillian's music store
    To buy a black diamond string
    Gonna wind it up on my guitar
    Gonna make that silver sing

    Like it was Dreamville
    A long time ago
    A million miles away
    All the trees were green
    In Dreamville

    I keep wakin' up all by myself
    With a blue jay in my brain
    Flappin' his wings
    Makin' me sing
    It was just about to rain

    A Tree on Allenford

    There is a tree on Allenford
    I drive by it each day on my way to and from work
    And there are always flowers left there each day
    Left for a child who died there
    Or so that is what people say

    But all I see
    Looks back at me
    Loved by someone, loved by someone
    Loved by someone, loved by someone

    And the golden thread of nature of this is
    Simply that we are a part of everything
    That will ever exist.
    To be loved is why we've come.
    Every drop of rain that fell or falls
    Is always falling
    On and on and on and on.

    Come into me
    And we'll always be
    Loved by someone, loved by someone
    Loved by someone, loved by someone

    There's nothing that has ever been
    That isn't loved
    By someone who waits
    To be loved again

    Loved by someone, loved by someone
    Loved by someone, loved by someone
