Lyrics of the moment

pandora

Trust in me, baby, give me time, gimme time, um gimme time.
I heard somebody say, oh, "The older the grape,
Sweeter the wine, sweeter the wine."

Oh, my love is like a seed, baby, just needs time to grow,
It's growing stronger day by day, yeah,
That's the price you've got to pay.

Trust in me, baby, give me time, gimme time, please, a little more time.
Takes a road runner just a little bit uh-longer, dear,
Oh, to make up my mind, I gotta make up my mind.
Oh, my love is like a seed, baby, just needs time to grow,
It's growing stronger day by day,
That's the price that we both got to pay.

I gotta know, know that I'm ready, oh ready to settle down,
'Cause I think too much of your loving, baby,
Yeah, I don't wanna mess your life around!

So if you love me like you tell me that you're doing, dear,
You shouldn't mind paying the price, any price, any price.
Love is supposed to be that special kind of thing,
Make anybody want to sacrifice.
Oh, my love is like a seed, baby, just needs time to grow,
It's growing stronger day by day,
That's the price we both gotta pay.

Trust in me baby, trust in me baby,
Trust in my love, in my heart.
Keep the faith, baby, keep the faith in me, dear, in my love.
Don't turn your face away from me, dear, oh you leave a lost girl,
Oh, don't turn your love away, no no no no no no no,
You gotta believe in me, baby, yeah, trust me dear, oh...

Only love
Can make it rain
The way the beach is kissed by the sea.
Only love
Can make it rain
Like the sweat of lovers'
Laying in the fields.

Love, Reign o'er me.
Love, Reign o'er me, rain on me.

Only love
Can bring the rain
That makes you yearn to the sky.
Only love
Can bring the rain
That falls like tears from on high.

Love Reign O'er me.

On the dry and dusty road
The nights we spend apart alone
I need to get back home to cool cool rain.
I can't sleep and I lay and I think
The nights are hot and black as ink
Oh God, I need a drink of cool cool rain.

gimmesometruth27

really diggin' this new song by everlast....i never knew he had it in him...

sixty five roses


It's been a bit of a while since I seen you smile
It's been too long baby what went wrong?
Tell me how it got spoiled.
Tell me when it went bad.
How to get back to the times that we had.

We're both young
And our spirits were bold
Now we're just angry and we act like we're old.
We can't even talk it out without one of us walking away.

You were 18. I just turned 29.
I was fresh out the coffin girl and
you were so fine
The future was bright.
The world, it seemed new
I was with some other woman but
I was thinking of you.
I knew how it hurts
I knew how it feels
I knew it how aches.
Cos the heart never heals.
We're so busy screaming that
we don't hear the words that we say.

We've taken our lumps
We took a few blows
Hit a few bumps
Had our fair share of woes.
We tried to see good
Through all of the bad
Put on our smiles,
Pretend we're not sad.
We gotta be tough
but we gotta be strong.
Gotta be right
Can't afford to be wrong.
It's hard to sing the blues
When you're reading bad news
everyday.

We worry too much for one couple to bear.
Hunger so much for one person to care.
We're fooling our family.
We're fooling our friends.
Pray that the pain and the frustration ends.
Hope is a chance.
Hope is a dream.
Hope is a drug.
Maybe hope's a vaccine.

In the race against time
I get down on my knees and I pray.

Shout at the devil
I curse the lord
Offer them everything I can afford.
I'd sell out my soul
I lighten to see.
Tried to be righteous .
Tried to believe.
Prayed every prayer.
Kicked all of my highs.
For hours I'd stare at those beautiful eyes.
All of my problems seem to be melting away.
The smile on her face
says daddy everything is okay.

In the race against time
I get down on my knees and I pray.

Bruce Springsteen - Highway 29

One of the many highlights on one of my top 10 albums of all time!!!

I slipped on her shoe, she was a perfect size seven
I said "There's no smokin' in the store ma'am."
She crossed her legs and then
We made some small talk that's where it should have stopped
She slipped me her number, I put it in my pocket
My hand slipped up her skirt, everything slipped my mind
In that little roadhouse
On Highway 29

It was a small town bank it was a mess
Well I had a gun you know the rest
Money on the floorboards, shirt was covered in blood
And she was cryin', her and me we headed south
On Highway 29

In a little desert motel the air was hot and clean
I slept the sleep of the dead, I didn't dream
I woke in the morning, washed my face in the sink
We headed into the Sierra Madres 'cross the border line
The winter sun shot through the black trees
I told myself it was all something in her
But as we drove I knew it was something in me
Something that'd been comin' for a long long time
And something that was here with me now
On Highway 29

The road was filled with broken glass and gasoline
She wasn't sayin' nothin', it was just a dream
The wind come silent through the windshield
All I could see was snow, sky and pines
I closed my eyes and I was runnin'
I was runnin' then I was flyin'

(I love this song these days.)

Stay or Leave

Maybe different but remember winters warm there you and I.
Kissing whiskey by the fire with the snow outside.
And when the summer comes
In the river swim at midnight (shiver, cold) touch the bottom
(stars are bright) with muddy toes

Stay or leave--I want you not to go,
But you should.
It was good, as good goes.
Stay or leave--I want you not to go.
But you did.

Wake up naked, drinking coffee, making plans to change the world
While the world is changing us.
It was good, good love.
And you used to laugh under the covers,
Maybe not so often now
The way I used to laugh with you was loud and hard.

Stay or leave—I want you not to go,
But you should.
It was good, as good goes.
Stay or leave—I want you not to go.
But you did.

So what to do with the rest of the days' afternoon haze?
Well isn't it strange how it changes everything we did?
Did I do all that I should—that I could have done?

Remember we used to dance and everyone wanted to be you and me? I want to be too.
What day is this, besides the day you left me?
What day is this, besides the day you went?
So what to do with the rest of the days' afternoon haze?
Well isn't it strange how it changes everything we did?
Did I do all that I could?

Remember we used to dance and everyone wanted to be you and me? I want to be too.
What day is this, besides the day you left me?
What day is this?

mikalina

She gets up and pours herself a strong one,
And stares out at the stars up in the sky.
Another night, it's gonna be a long one.
She draws the shade and hangs her head to cry.

She wonders how it ever got this crazy.
She thinks about a boy she knew in school.
Did she get tired or did she just get lazy?
She's so far gone she feels just like a fool...

HARD TIMES IN CALEDONIA
DON´T LET THE MAKER OWN YA
I GUESS WE´LL ONLY KNOW IN TIME
WHO´LL PAY FOR YOUR NEIGHBOUR´S CRIME
OLD DUST AND RAILWAY LINES
A WITCHES CURSE IN SPRUCE AND PINES
GRAND RIVER I´VE HEARD IT ALL
I´VE HEARD IT ALL IN A LOVERS CALL
chorus
STONE LONESOME
NOW C´MON
CALEDONIA´S FALL
I GUESS I BETTER MAKE THAT CALL
THE LOVE OF ONE IS THE LOVE OF ALL
C´MON
THE LOVE OF ONE IS THE LOVE.........OF ALL
BE STILL WHEN THE SUN POURS THROUGH
BURIED LIVES IN WITH HELD TRUTH
TAKE A BREATH AND HOLD YOUR TONGUE
THE HURT OF ALL....... IS THE HURT OF ONE
GIVE THANKS TO UNKNOWN BLESSINGS THEY COME TO YOU WHEN YOU STOP GUESSING
SO BURN OUT IN THE FIELDS TONIGHT
NOT INSIDE THE FLASHING LIGHTS
chorus
MY BABY´S WORLD IS FALLING DOWN
FALLING DOWN ON HOLY GROUND
BETTER LET THEM KNOW I´M COMING
CALEDONIA HAS GOT ME RUNNIN´

You may, cry the tears
The tears, unreal for me
You say, it's taken years
Years of regret and pain
Forget me not, he says
I'm so afraid
He says, there's no fear in your eyes
Tell me, another, lie...
I hear the islands calling
I hear angry words
Fly across the ocean
Like some, sea birds
Never stopping
I feel my blood racing
Can't believe what you are saying
I used to love you,...

mikalina

Time after time I sit and I wait for your call
I know I'm a fool but what can I say...

Whatever the price I'll pay for you, Madame Blue
Once long ago, a word from your lips and the world turned around.
But somehow you've changed, you're so far away
I long for the past and dream of the days with you, Madame Blue.

Suite Madame Blue, gaze in your looking glass
You're not a child anymore.
Suite Madame Blue, the future is all but past.
Dressed in your jewels, you made your own rules
You conquered the world and more ....heaven's door ...

tremors

Love spreads her arms - waits there for the nails
I forgive you boy, I will prevail
Too much to take, some cross to bear
I'm hiding in the trees with a picnic, she's over there

Yeah yeah yeah

She didn't scream, she didn't make a sound
I forgive you boy, but don't leave town
Coal black skin, naked in the rain
Hammer flash in the lightning, they're hurting her again

Let me put you in the picture, let me show you what I mean
The messiah is my sister, ain't no king man, she's my queen

I have a dream, I've seen the light
Don't put it out, cause she's alright, yeah, she's my sister

She didn't scream, she didn't make a sound
I forgive you boy, but don't leave town
Cold black skin, naked in the rain
Hammer flash in the lightning, they're hurting her again

Let me put you in the picture, let me show you what I mean
The messiah is my sister, ain't no king man, she's my queen

I have a dream, I've seen the light
Don't put it out, cause she's alright, yeah, she's my sister

Once upon a time, my advice to you would have been go out and find yourself a whore
But I guess I've grown up, because I don't give that kind of advice anymore....

I was 27 when I figured out that blowing my brains out wasn't the answer
So I decided, maybe I should find a way to make this world work out for me
And my good friend Paul was 83 when he told me; that ...

"To love is to feel pain"......

And I thought about that then and I've thought about that again and again

"To love is to feel pain" .... there ain't no way around it
The very nature of love is to grieve when it is over

The secret to a happy ending is knowing when to roll the credits
Better roll them now before something else goes wrong...

mikalina

Know it's a wonderful world, if you can put aside the sadness
And hang on to every ounce of beauty upon you...
Better take the time to know it, If you feel anything at all...

So if what you have is working for you, or you think that it stands a reasonable chance,
and whatever's broken seems fixable and nothing's beyond repair
if you still think about each other and smile before you remember ...

how screwed up it's gotten or maybe still dream of a time less rotten
Remember, it ain't too late to take a deep breath
and throw yourself into it with everything you've got

It's great to be alive

Gonna be a world of hurt
Gonna be a world of hurt
Gonna be a world of hurt ....

I remember I was barely four
When mama told me "Daddy's gone:.died in the war
He won't be home again"
I never knew him, a picture's all I had
Mama raised me all by herself through good and bad
Somehow she bore the pain
She's the one who believed in me
Always knew when to let me be
Showed me how to keep wrong from right
She was there for me day and night.

I know just what I am and I'm no shining knight
But I believe I'm a better man for the women in my life

I have a daughter, she's an only child
Like her father, she can get a little wild
Nobody holds her chained
Her mother raised her and bore the load,
And often told her "Daddy's gone out on the road
But he'll be home again"
But for the time that I wasn't there
When she needed a father's care
I can't turn back the hands of time
But let her know that I'm proud she's mine.

I know just what I am and I'm no shining knight
But I believe I'm a better man for the women in my life.

Of all the women in my life, the one that's closest to me
Is my companion, my confidant, my true and trusted friend
Her steady hand, her sparkling eyes were there to help me see
Right from the start, we traded hearts
So it shall be till the end
Mother, you gave the world to me
Daughter, you are a joy to see
Woman, you've been my constant wife
You are my passion, love of my life.

I know just what I am and I'm no shining knight
But I believe I'm a better man for the women in my life.


JOHN KAY
"For The Women In My Life"

mikalina

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 ...

Ricki Lee Jones: Cloud of Unknowing-->

So he dropped the webs of the spider of heaven down through the clouds,
All the way into the pool of blood at the bottom of hell
Far above in heaven a bird flys through the terrible cloud of unknowing
Trust can make a man into a wood, trust can make a man green
an Everything-that-longs-to-Be
Broken and small enough to see
To be held in his hands
To be a part and yet alone
Here he is, reaching for...the speed of light
Here he is, reaching for...the sound of forgiveness
Now wounding 'round the waterfront she listens for a voice
A sign of Mother God, a sign of God the lad
I long to enter you with gentleness and compassion
But sorrow is always an open door
I know many days go by and I forget to look up at the stars
I forget there are stars, I forget there is the rest
Thin threads of light follow you around
Through the pale blue, down your skin
Down your skin

mikalina

So I talk to the night, I head for the light
Try and hold it on the road, Thank God for the man who put the white lines
On the highway....

Baby what you gonna do when the fire is through
And you find he's out looking for somebody new ....

Cause you did everything that he wanted you to do
And now you're all alone and crying, aren't you... lover

justam

I had a dream

I know it seems so absurd

We all live in a house on a hill

Nobody has to say a word

I wake up

It's the middle of the night

The room is opening with love

I try to hold on to this golden light

But I fall hard from above



I don't do it for money

I don't do it for God

I'm back on the street because



It takes you there

Takes you there

It takes you there

Takes you there...


Takes you there

Takes you there

Takes you there

Takes you there

Chip McFlennigan

Nice.

Such a beautiful autumn day - I've got "summer breeze " on my mind....
