Every day's not Valentine's,
but you make it feel like most of the time,
when I'm all alone with you.
Pickin up pieces of my life,
sometimes there's ones I just can't find,
but they found a home with you.
Woah, I'm not afraid to be alone,
but being alone is better with you.
Life is better with you......
Peace

You're not a stranger to me
And you are something to see
You don't even know how to please
You say a lot... but you're unaware how to leave
My darling lives in a world that is not mine
An old child misunderstood... out of time
Timeless is the creature who is wise
And timeless is the prisoner in disguise
Oh who is the beauty... who the beast
Would you die of grieving when I leave
Two children too blind to see
I would fall in your shadow... I believe
My love is a man who's not been tamed
Oh... my love lives in a world of false pleasure and pain
We come from difference worlds... we are the same (my love)
I never doubted your beauty... I've changed
I never doubted your beauty... I've changed
If you were here
Baby we'd increase the dose
There was no fear in my room
When we got close
Call me anytime
You've got a ghost
And you're the only person in the world
I feel that way about
And if you move off to the side
I'll get swept back out
Where it's cold but not that deep
'Cause your legs grow
Cold but not that deep
'Cause your legs grow
There's a light that rises up
From the bottom of the lake
And its beam has hit me hard
Now I'm wide awake
Where it's cold but not that deep
'Cause your legs grow
Cold but not that deep
'Cause your legs grow
If you were here
Baby we'd increase the dose
There was no fear in my room
When we got close
Call me anytime
You've got a ghost

I took a drive today
Time to emancipate
I guess it was the beatings... made me wise
But I'm not about to give thanks, or apologize
I couldn't breathe, holdin' me down
Hand on my face, pushed to the ground
Enmity gauged, united by fear
Forced to endure what I could not forgive...
I seem to look away
Wounds in the mirror waved
It wasn't my surface... most defiled
Head at your feet, fool to your crown
Fist on my plate, swallowed it down
Enmity gauged, united by fear
Tried to endure what I could not forgive
Saw things
Saw things
Saw things
Saw things
Clearer
Clearer
Once you, were in my...
Rearviewmirror...
I gather speed from you fucking with me
Once and for all I'm far away
I hardly believe, finally the shades...are raised...
Saw things so much clearer
(Once you, once you)
Rearviewmirror...
hanging on.
here until I'm gone.
right where I belong.
just hanging on.
even though I watched you come and go
how was I to know
you'd steal the show?
one day I'll have enough to gamble.
I'll wait to hear your final call.
bet it all.
hanging on
here until I'm gone.
right where I belong.
just hanging on.
even though,
pass this time alone,
somewhere so unknown,
it heals the soul.
you ask for walls
I'll build them higher.
we'll lie in shadows of them all
I'd stand but they're much to tall.
and I fall.

I'm sick and tired of hearing things
From uptight, short-sighted, narrow-minded hypocrites
All I want is the truth
Just gimme some truth
I've had enough of reading things
By neurotic, psychotic, pig-headed politicians
All I want is the truth
Just gimme some truth
No short-haired, yellow-bellied, son of Tricky Dicky
Is gonna mother hubbard soft soap me
With just a pocketful of hope
Money for dope
Money for rope
Woho!
No short-haired, yellow-bellied, son of Tricky Dicky
Is gonna mother hubbard soft soap me
With just a pocketful of hope
Money for dope
Money for rope
I'm sick to death of seeing things
From tight-lipped, condescending, mama's little chauvinists
All I want is the truth
Just gimme some truth now
I've had enough of watching scenes
Of schizophrenic, ego-centric, paranoiac, prima-donnas
All I want is the truth now
Just gimme some truth
No short-haired, yellow-bellied, son of Tricky Dicky
Is gonna mother hubbard soft soap me
With just a pocketful of hope
It's money for dope
Money for rope
Ah, I'm sick to death of hearing things
from uptight, short-sighted, narrow-minded hypocrites
All I want is the truth now
Just gimme some truth now
I've had enough of reading things
by neurotic, psychotic, pig-headed politicians
All I want is the truth now
Just gimme some truth now
All I want is the truth now
Just gimme some truth now

Winded is the sailor...drifting by the storm...
Wounded is the organ, he left all...bloodied on the shore...
Gorgeous was his savior, sees her...drowning in his wake...
Daily taste the salt of her tears, but...a chance blamed fate...
Little secrets, tremors...turned to quake...
The smallest oceans still get...big, big waves...
Ransom paid the devil...he whispers pleasing words...
Triumphant are the angels if they can... get there first...
Little secrets, tremors...turned to quake...
The smallest oceans still get...big, big waves...
I'll decide...take the dive...
Take my time...not my life...
Wait for signs...believe in lies...
To get by...it's divine...whoa...
Oh, you know what it's like...
Turns the bow back, tows and...drops the line...
Puts his faith in love and tremor christ...
this has been stuck in my head allllll weekend....

Take the makeup off your eyes
I've got to see you, hear your sacred sighs
Before the break up, comes the silence
I'm talking to you. You say you're over it,
But I know
I thought I knew you. You thought you knew me
But now that you do, it's not so easy now
That I know
You can cry; I won't go. You can scream; I won't go
Every man that you know would have run at the word go
Little boys with their porno, oh, I know they hurt you so
They don't know what we know. Never know what we know
And all your makeup, just take it all off
I've got to find you before the line is lost
I know I hurt you, I won't deny it
When I reach for you, you say, "I'm over it."
But I know
You can cry; I won't go. You can scream; I won't go
Every man that you know would have run at the word go
Little boys with their porno, oh, I know they hurt you so
They don't know what I know. It's so little that we know
But the cup it overflows. Little boys with their porno
This is their world, where can we go?
Makes me feel like something's wrong with me
Makes me feel like something's wrong with me
Can you see me?
You can cry; I won't go. You can scream; I won't go
Little boys with their porno. Little boys with their porno
Makes me feel like something's wrong. It's the only world we know
Yeah, something's wrong. Little boys with their porno
And boys they learn some selfish shit until the girl won't put up with it
On and on and on we go. I just have to know. I'm not over it
I'm not over it
So love is real like a disease.
Come on tell me please,
I'm not over it
I'm not over it

Mama told me when I was young
Come sit beside me, my only son
And listen closely to what I say.
And if you do this
It will help you some sunny day.
Take your time... Don't live too fast,
Troubles will come and they will pass.
Go find a woman and you'll find love,
And don't forget son,
There is someone up above.
And be a simple kind of man.
Be something you love and understand.
Be a simple kind of man.
Won't you do this for me son,
If you can?
Forget your lust for the rich man's gold
All that you need is in your soul,
And you can do this if you try.
All that I want for you my son,
Is to be satisfied.
Boy, don't you worry.
You'll find yourself.
Follow you heart,
and nothing else.
You can do this,
if you try.
All that I want for you my son,
is to be satisfied.
And now he's home
And we're laughing 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 gonna happen next
Before his first step
He's off again

I close my eyes, only for a moment, and the moment's gone
All my dreams, pass before my eyes, a curiosity
Dust in the wind, all they are is dust in the wind
Same old song, just a drop of water in an endless sea
All we do, crumbles to the ground, though we refuse to see
Dust in the wind, All we are is dust in the wind
Don't hang on, nothing lasts forever but the earth and sky
It slips away, all your money won't another minute buy
Dust in the wind, All we are is dust in the wind...
In a room filled with dried tears of sorrow
You come in and lay down by my side
When you feel the same way tomorrow
'Cause you smile just as easy as you cry...
Was it wrong to be good to you
Was it wrong to be your man
'Cause I ain't getting through to you
And i've done all I can to make you understand...
And my heart just keeps on bleeding
From the hole that drains my soul
And if I can't kill the feeling now
How do I, oh I, let go?
Time only heals when it wants to
I guess that's why I just can't get you off of my mind...
Yeah, when the walls come down between us
Will you be on the other side?
If you say you didn't need it
I will let you right back in for the rest of my life
Only you can stop the bleeding
From the hole that drains my soul
And if you can't kill the feeling now
How do I, oh I, let go? ....
It's ok....Sometimes you find yourself having to put all your Faith .......in No Faith.

Every time that I look in the mirror
All these lines on my face getting clearer
The past is gone
It went by like dusk to dawn
Isn't that the way
Everybody's got their dues in life to pay
Yeah, I know nobody knows
Where it comes and where it goes
I know it's everybody's sin
You got to lose to know how to win
Half my life's in books' written pages
Live and learn from fools and from sages
You know it's true
All the things you do, come back to you
Sing with me, sing for the year
Sing for the laughter and sing for the tear
Sing with me, if it's just for today
Maybe tomorrow the good Lord will take you away
Sing with me, sing it for the year
Sing for the laughter and sing for the tear
Sing with me, if it's just for today
Maybe tomorrow the good Lord will take you away
Dream on, dream on, dream on,
Dream until your dream come true
Dream on, dream on, dream on,
And dream until your dream come true
Dream on
Sing with me, sing it for the year
Sing for the laughter and sing it for the tear
Sing with me, if it's just for today
Maybe tomorrow the good Lord will take you away
Sing with me, sing it for the year
Sing for the laughter and sing it for the tear
Sing with me, if it's just for today
Maybe tomorrow the good Lord will take you away
It's a little bit funny this feeling inside
I'm not one of those who can easily hide
I don't have much money but boy if I did
I'd buy a big house where we both could live
If I was a sculptor, but then again, no
Or a man who makes potions in a travelling show
I know it's not much but it's the best I can do
My gift is my song and this one's for you
And you can tell everybody this is your song
It may be quite simple but now that it's done
I hope you don't mind
I hope you don't mind that I put down in words
How wonderful life is while you're in the world
I sat on the roof and kicked off the moss
Well a few of the verses well they've got me quite cross
But the sun's been quite kind while I wrote this song
It's for people like you that keep it turned on
So excuse me forgetting but these things I do
You see I've forgotten if they're green or they're blue
Anyway the thing is what I really mean
Yours are the sweetest eyes I've ever seen
And you can tell everybody this is your song
It may be quite simple but now that it's done
I hope you don't mind
I hope you don't mind that I put down in words
How wonderful life is while you're in the world
I hope you don't mind
I hope you don't mind that I put down in words
How wonderful life is while you're in the world
~Elton John
"How wonderful life is while you're in the world" ~ I have loved these 9 words in this song for as long as I can remember, they have a "very special" meaning to mean... both happy & sad....
Baby, sometimes the rain must fall
Somethings in this world you can't change at all
And some nights dreams are like broken mirrors
Shattered all around ...
If I could I would chase all the clouds away
Make every shadow fade
And I'll build a place, there'd be no tears at all
Sometimes baby, the rain must fall ...
And baby, this thing called gravity
Baby, keeps us prisoners on the ground
The world can get so heavy on your shoulders
Hey, that it might break it down....
If I could I would chase all the clouds away
Make every shadow fade
I'll build a place, there'd be no tears at all
Sometimes baby, the rain must fall...
If I could I would chase all the clouds away
Make every shadow fade
I'll build a place, there'd be no tears at all
Sometimes baby, sometimes baby, the rain must fall ....
Keep on locking your doors
Keep on building your floors
Keep on just as before
Pay disasters no mind
Didn't get you this time
No prints left at the crime
Our ships come in
And its sinking
Of everything that's possible
In the hearts and minds of men
Somehow it is the biggest things
That keep on slipping
Right through our hands
By thinking we're infallible
We are tempting fate instead
Time we best begin
Here at the ending
Wanna third second chance
Put your faith in big hands
Pay no more than a glance
All good things come to an end
This could be good as it gets
How's the view from the fence?
You think we been here before
You are mistaken
Of everything that's possible
In the hearts and minds of men
When progress could be plausible
In reverse we curse ourselves
By thinking we're infallible
We are tempting fate instead
Time we best begin
Here at the ending
Of everything that's possible
In the hearts and minds of men
Somehow it is the biggest things
That keep on slipping
Right through our hands
By thinking we're infallible
We are tempting fate instead
Time we best begin
Here at the ending
Keep on locking your doors
Keep on building your floors
Keep on just as before

Like a disease.
Come on tell me please,
I'm not over it.
I'm not over it.
Wait…

Time, it opens all wounds
And trust is gonna put me in the tomb
The world isn't mine, the world isn't mine to save
I can't afford to lose what you easily throw away
And I don't even know myself,
What it would take to know myself
I need to change, I don't know how
Don't give up on me now
It's not what we do, it's what we do with what we feel
Takes all you have to stare it down, and whisper "Devil, no deal."
And I don't wanna fight, don't wanna fight my father's war
You can wait your whole life
Not knowing what you're waiting for
And I don't even know myself,
What it would take to know myself
I need to change, I don't know how
Don't give up on me now, don't give up on me now
Don't give up on me now, don't give up on me now
I don't even know myself,
What it would take to know myself
I need to change, I don't know how
Don't give up on me now

One morn I awakened
A new sun was shining
The sky was a Kingdom
All covered in blood
The moon and the stars
Where the troops that lay conquered
Like fruit left to wither
Poor spiritual food
And the spears of bright sun
All brave with its conquest
Did hover unearthly
In banners of fire
I knelt in the garden
Awash with the dawning
And a voice came so brightly
I covered my eyes
Thank you for giving
This bright new morning
So steeped seemed the evening
In darkness and blood
There'll be no sadness
There'll be no sorrow
There'll be no road too narrow
There'll be a new day
And it's today
For us

but you make it feel like most of the time,
when I'm all alone with you.
Pickin up pieces of my life,
sometimes there's ones I just can't find,
but they found a home with you.
Woah, I'm not afraid to be alone,
but being alone is better with you.
Life is better with you......

content to think but never know
maybe get just a little high
just enough to unclose one eye
if i wanted trouble, i could find it
if i wanted trouble, i could get it
if i wanted trouble, i could find it
if i wanted trouble, i could get it
this growing up, it never ends
the same mistakes come back again
i toss and turn when I'm asleep
but in the day I'm making peace
if i wanted trouble, i could find it
if i wanted trouble, i could get it
if i wanted trouble, i could find it
if i wanted trouble, i could get it
"Well, you tell him that I don't talk to suckas."
Baby we'd increase the dose
There was no fear in my room
When we got close
Call me anytime
You've got a ghost
And you're the only person in the world
I feel that way about
And if you move off to the side
I'll get swept back out
Where it's cold but not that deep
'Cause your legs grow
Cold but not that deep
'Cause your legs grow
There's a light that rises up
From the bottom of the lake
And its beam has hit me hard
Now I'm wide awake
Where it's cold but not that deep
'Cause your legs grow
Cold but not that deep
'Cause your legs grow
If you were here
Baby we'd increase the dose
There was no fear in my room
When we got close
Call me anytime
You've got a ghost
"Well, you tell him that I don't talk to suckas."
two
three marlenas...
there's gotta be someone we can trust,
here among us..
"Well, you tell him that I don't talk to suckas."
Time to emancipate
I guess it was the beatings... made me wise
But I'm not about to give thanks, or apologize
I couldn't breathe, holdin' me down
Hand on my face, pushed to the ground
Enmity gauged, united by fear
Forced to endure what I could not forgive...
I seem to look away
Wounds in the mirror waved
It wasn't my surface... most defiled
Head at your feet, fool to your crown
Fist on my plate, swallowed it down
Enmity gauged, united by fear
Tried to endure what I could not forgive
Saw things
Saw things
Saw things
Saw things
Clearer
Clearer
Once you, were in my...
Rearviewmirror...
I gather speed from you fucking with me
Once and for all I'm far away
I hardly believe, finally the shades...are raised...
Saw things so much clearer
(Once you, once you)
Rearviewmirror...
Wish you were here...

here until I'm gone.
right where I belong.
just hanging on.
even though I watched you come and go
how was I to know
you'd steal the show?
one day I'll have enough to gamble.
I'll wait to hear your final call.
bet it all.
hanging on
here until I'm gone.
right where I belong.
just hanging on.
even though,
pass this time alone,
somewhere so unknown,
it heals the soul.
you ask for walls
I'll build them higher.
we'll lie in shadows of them all
I'd stand but they're much to tall.
and I fall.

From uptight, short-sighted, narrow-minded hypocrites

Just gimme some truth
I've had enough of reading things
By neurotic, psychotic, pig-headed politicians
All I want is the truth

No short-haired, yellow-bellied, son of Tricky Dicky
Is gonna mother hubbard soft soap me
With just a pocketful of hope
Money for dope

From tight-lipped, condescending, mama's little chauvinists
All I want is the truth
Just gimme some truth now
I've had enough of watching scenes
Of schizophrenic, ego-centric, paranoiac, prima-donnas
All I want is the truth now
Just gimme some truth
No short-haired, yellow-bellied, son of Tricky Dicky
Is gonna mother hubbard soft soap me
With just a pocketful of hope
It's money for dope
Money for rope
Ah, I'm sick to death of hearing things
from uptight, short-sighted, narrow-minded hypocrites
All I want is the truth now
Just gimme some truth now
I've had enough of reading things
by neurotic, psychotic, pig-headed politicians
All I want is the truth now
Just gimme some truth now
All I want is the truth now
Just gimme some truth now
All I want is the truth
Just gimme some truth
All I want is the truth
Just gimme some truth

Winded is the sailor...drifting by the storm...
Wounded is the organ, he left all...bloodied on the shore...
Gorgeous was his savior, sees her...drowning in his wake...
Daily taste the salt of her tears, but...a chance blamed fate...
Little secrets, tremors...turned to quake...
The smallest oceans still get...big, big waves...
Ransom paid the devil...he whispers pleasing words...
Triumphant are the angels if they can... get there first...
Little secrets, tremors...turned to quake...
The smallest oceans still get...big, big waves...
I'll decide...take the dive...
Take my time...not my life...
Wait for signs...believe in lies...
To get by...it's divine...whoa...
Oh, you know what it's like...
Turns the bow back, tows and...drops the line...
Puts his faith in love and tremor christ...
Wish you were here...

and a burger that has strength
a burger that has strength
a weak burger you can chew and still talk
a burger with strength you chew
the meat just absorbs all the space
and all the air possible all in your throat
to the point that if you wanted to start talkin
nothin but mm-mm, mm-mm, mm-mm, mm-mm, mm-mm
is comin out

"Well, you tell him that I don't talk to suckas."
And there is no god with a plan
It's sad... and his loneliness is proof

You could stand me up at the gates of hell
But I won't back down
Gonna stand my ground, won't be turned around
And I'll keep this world from draggin' me down
Gonna stand my ground and I won't back down
Hey baby, there ain't no easy way out
Hey I will stand my ground
And I won't back down
Well I know what's right, I got just one life
In a world that keeps on pushin' me around
But I'll stand my ground and I won't back down
Hey baby there ain't no easy way out
Hey I will stand my ground
And I won't back down
No, I won't back down
Wish you were here...

Take the makeup off your eyes
I've got to see you, hear your sacred sighs
Before the break up, comes the silence
I'm talking to you. You say you're over it,
But I know
I thought I knew you. You thought you knew me
But now that you do, it's not so easy now
That I know
You can cry; I won't go. You can scream; I won't go
Every man that you know would have run at the word go
Little boys with their porno, oh, I know they hurt you so
They don't know what we know. Never know what we know
And all your makeup, just take it all off
I've got to find you before the line is lost
I know I hurt you, I won't deny it
When I reach for you, you say, "I'm over it."
But I know
You can cry; I won't go. You can scream; I won't go
Every man that you know would have run at the word go
Little boys with their porno, oh, I know they hurt you so
They don't know what I know. It's so little that we know
But the cup it overflows. Little boys with their porno
This is their world, where can we go?
Makes me feel like something's wrong with me
Makes me feel like something's wrong with me
Can you see me?
You can cry; I won't go. You can scream; I won't go
Little boys with their porno. Little boys with their porno
Makes me feel like something's wrong. It's the only world we know
Yeah, something's wrong. Little boys with their porno
And boys they learn some selfish shit until the girl won't put up with it
On and on and on we go. I just have to know. I'm not over it
I'm not over it
So love is real like a disease.
Come on tell me please,
I'm not over it
I'm not over it
"..That's One Happy Fuckin Ghost.."
“..That came up on the Pillow Case...This is for the Greek, With Our Apologies.....”
put it on
never was it true
but it's you
I fell into
"Well, you tell him that I don't talk to suckas."
Mama told me when I was young
Come sit beside me, my only son
And listen closely to what I say.
And if you do this
It will help you some sunny day.
Take your time... Don't live too fast,
Troubles will come and they will pass.
Go find a woman and you'll find love,
And don't forget son,
There is someone up above.
And be a simple kind of man.
Be something you love and understand.
Be a simple kind of man.
Won't you do this for me son,
If you can?
Forget your lust for the rich man's gold
All that you need is in your soul,
And you can do this if you try.
All that I want for you my son,
Is to be satisfied.
Boy, don't you worry.
You'll find yourself.
Follow you heart,
and nothing else.
You can do this,
if you try.
All that I want for you my son,
is to be satisfied.
Wish you were here...

And we're laughing 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 gonna happen next
Before his first step
He's off again

All my dreams, pass before my eyes, a curiosity
Dust in the wind, all they are is dust in the wind
Same old song, just a drop of water in an endless sea
All we do, crumbles to the ground, though we refuse to see
Dust in the wind, All we are is dust in the wind
Don't hang on, nothing lasts forever but the earth and sky
It slips away, all your money won't another minute buy
Dust in the wind, All we are is dust in the wind...
Wish you were here...

You better watch what you do to me
Don't get carried away
Girl, if you can do better than me, go
Yeah go but remember
Good love is hard to find
Good love is hard to find
You got lucky babe
Yeah, you got lucky babe
When I found you-
You put a hand on my cheek
And then you turn your eyes away
If you don't feel complete
If I don't take you all of the way, go
Yeah go, but remember good love
Is hard to find
You got lucky babe
Yeah you got lucky
When I found you
Wish you were here...
♥~RIP Dad
You come in and lay down by my side
When you feel the same way tomorrow
'Cause you smile just as easy as you cry...
Was it wrong to be good to you
Was it wrong to be your man
'Cause I ain't getting through to you
And i've done all I can to make you understand...
And my heart just keeps on bleeding
From the hole that drains my soul
And if I can't kill the feeling now
How do I, oh I, let go?
Time only heals when it wants to
I guess that's why I just can't get you off of my mind...
Yeah, when the walls come down between us
Will you be on the other side?
If you say you didn't need it
I will let you right back in for the rest of my life
Only you can stop the bleeding
From the hole that drains my soul
And if you can't kill the feeling now
How do I, oh I, let go? ....

Every time that I look in the mirror
All these lines on my face getting clearer
The past is gone
It went by like dusk to dawn
Isn't that the way
Everybody's got their dues in life to pay
Yeah, I know nobody knows
Where it comes and where it goes
I know it's everybody's sin
You got to lose to know how to win
Half my life's in books' written pages
Live and learn from fools and from sages
You know it's true
All the things you do, come back to you
Sing with me, sing for the year
Sing for the laughter and sing for the tear
Sing with me, if it's just for today
Maybe tomorrow the good Lord will take you away
Sing with me, sing it for the year
Sing for the laughter and sing for the tear
Sing with me, if it's just for today
Maybe tomorrow the good Lord will take you away
Dream on, dream on, dream on,
Dream until your dream come true
Dream on, dream on, dream on,
And dream until your dream come true
Dream on
Sing with me, sing it for the year
Sing for the laughter and sing it for the tear
Sing with me, if it's just for today
Maybe tomorrow the good Lord will take you away
Sing with me, sing it for the year
Sing for the laughter and sing it for the tear
Sing with me, if it's just for today
Maybe tomorrow the good Lord will take you away
Wish you were here...

It's a little bit funny this feeling inside
I'm not one of those who can easily hide
I don't have much money but boy if I did
I'd buy a big house where we both could live
If I was a sculptor, but then again, no
Or a man who makes potions in a travelling show
I know it's not much but it's the best I can do
My gift is my song and this one's for you
And you can tell everybody this is your song
It may be quite simple but now that it's done
I hope you don't mind
I hope you don't mind that I put down in words
How wonderful life is while you're in the world
I sat on the roof and kicked off the moss
Well a few of the verses well they've got me quite cross
But the sun's been quite kind while I wrote this song
It's for people like you that keep it turned on
So excuse me forgetting but these things I do
You see I've forgotten if they're green or they're blue
Anyway the thing is what I really mean
Yours are the sweetest eyes I've ever seen
And you can tell everybody this is your song
It may be quite simple but now that it's done
I hope you don't mind
I hope you don't mind that I put down in words
How wonderful life is while you're in the world
I hope you don't mind
I hope you don't mind that I put down in words
How wonderful life is while you're in the world
~Elton John
"How wonderful life is while you're in the world" ~ I have loved these 9 words in this song for as long as I can remember, they have a "very special" meaning to mean... both happy & sad....
Wish you were here...

Somethings in this world you can't change at all
And some nights dreams are like broken mirrors
Shattered all around ...
If I could I would chase all the clouds away
Make every shadow fade
And I'll build a place, there'd be no tears at all
Sometimes baby, the rain must fall ...
And baby, this thing called gravity
Baby, keeps us prisoners on the ground
The world can get so heavy on your shoulders
Hey, that it might break it down....
If I could I would chase all the clouds away
Make every shadow fade
I'll build a place, there'd be no tears at all
Sometimes baby, the rain must fall...
If I could I would chase all the clouds away
Make every shadow fade
I'll build a place, there'd be no tears at all
Sometimes baby, sometimes baby, the rain must fall ....
Keep on building your floors
Keep on just as before
Pay disasters no mind
Didn't get you this time
No prints left at the crime
Our ships come in
And its sinking
Of everything that's possible
In the hearts and minds of men
Somehow it is the biggest things
That keep on slipping
Right through our hands
By thinking we're infallible
We are tempting fate instead
Time we best begin
Here at the ending
Wanna third second chance
Put your faith in big hands
Pay no more than a glance
All good things come to an end
This could be good as it gets
How's the view from the fence?
You think we been here before
You are mistaken
Of everything that's possible
In the hearts and minds of men
When progress could be plausible
In reverse we curse ourselves
By thinking we're infallible
We are tempting fate instead
Time we best begin
Here at the ending
Of everything that's possible
In the hearts and minds of men
Somehow it is the biggest things
That keep on slipping
Right through our hands
By thinking we're infallible
We are tempting fate instead
Time we best begin
Here at the ending
Keep on locking your doors
Keep on building your floors
Keep on just as before

I'm not over it.
I'm not over it.
Wait…

And trust is gonna put me in the tomb
The world isn't mine, the world isn't mine to save
I can't afford to lose what you easily throw away
And I don't even know myself,
What it would take to know myself
I need to change, I don't know how
Don't give up on me now
It's not what we do, it's what we do with what we feel
Takes all you have to stare it down, and whisper "Devil, no deal."
And I don't wanna fight, don't wanna fight my father's war
You can wait your whole life
Not knowing what you're waiting for
And I don't even know myself,
What it would take to know myself
I need to change, I don't know how
Don't give up on me now, don't give up on me now
Don't give up on me now, don't give up on me now
I don't even know myself,
What it would take to know myself
I need to change, I don't know how
Don't give up on me now

A new sun was shining
The sky was a Kingdom
All covered in blood
The moon and the stars
Where the troops that lay conquered
Like fruit left to wither
Poor spiritual food
And the spears of bright sun
All brave with its conquest
Did hover unearthly
In banners of fire
I knelt in the garden
Awash with the dawning
And a voice came so brightly
I covered my eyes
Thank you for giving
This bright new morning
So steeped seemed the evening
In darkness and blood
There'll be no sadness
There'll be no sorrow
There'll be no road too narrow
There'll be a new day
And it's today
For us
