    This is a good song for today. :)

    Patti Smith, Going Under-->

    Sun is rising on the water
    Light is dancing again
    Let's go under where the sun beams
    Let's go under my friend

    Are we sleeping
    Are we dreaming
    Are we dancing again
    Is it heaven
    Crack it open
    And we'll slide down
    Its stream

    We can hold on (I'm sure)
    To the sea's foaming mane
    It will serve us
    We'll surface
    And we'll plunge back again

    Sun is rising on the water
    Light is dancing like a flame
    There's no burning where the sun beams
    Oh it's such a lovely game

    Does the sea dream (I'm sure)
    We are here, we attend
    We are bells on the shore
    Where the tolling suspends

    Who will decide the shape of things?
    The shift of being
    Who will perceive
    When life is new
    Shall we divide and become another
    Who is due for gift upon gift
    Who will decide
    Shall we swim over and over
    The curve of a wing
    Its destination ever changing

    Sun is rising on the water
    Light is dancing like a flame
    Let's go waltzing on the water
    Let's go under again

    Let's go under
    Going under
    &&&&&&&&&&&&&&

    Queen of Light took her bow, And then she turned to go,
    The Prince of Peace embraced the gloom, And walked the night alone.

    Oh, dance in the dark of night, Sing to the morning light.
    The dark Lord rides in force tonight, And time will tell us all.

    Oh, throw down your plow and hoe, Rest not to lock your homes.

    Side by side we wait the might of the darkest of them all.

    I hear the horses' thunder down in the valley blow,
    I'm waiting for the angels of Avalon, waiting for the eastern glow.

    The apples of the valley hold, The seeds of happiness,
    The ground is rich from tender care, Repay, do not forget, no, no.
    Dance in the dark of night, sing to the morning light.

    The apples turn to brown and black, The tyrant's face is red.

    Oh war is the common cry, Pick up you swords and fly.
    The sky is filled with good and bad that mortals never know.

    Oh, well, the night is long the beads of time pass slow,
    Tired eyes on the sunrise, waiting for the eastern glow.

    The pain of war cannot exceed the woe of aftermath,
    The drums will shake the castle wall, the ring wraiths ride in black, Ride on.

    Sing as you raise your bow, shoot straighter than before.
    No comfort has the fire at night that lights the face so cold.

    Oh dance in the dark of night, Sing to the morning light.
    The magic runes are writ in gold to bring the balance back. Bring it back.

    At last the sun is shining, The clouds of blue roll by,
    With flames from the dragon of darkness, the sunlight blinds his eyes.

    Hello, yea it's been awhile
    Not much, how 'bout you
    I'm not sure why I called
    I guess I really just wanted to talk to you ...

    And I was thinking maybe later on
    We could get together for awhile
    It's been such a long time
    And I really do miss your smile ...

    I'm not talking 'bout moving in
    And I don't want to change your life
    But there's a warm wind blowing, the stars are out

    And I really love to see you tonight ....

    And I don't want to change your life
    But there's a warm wind blowing, the stars are out

    And I really love to see you tonight

    We could go walking through a windy park
    Take a drive along the beach
    Or stay at home and watch t.v.

    You see it really doesn't matter much to me ....

    And I really love to see you tonight, babe

    She'll let you in her house
    If you come knockin' late at night
    She'll let you in her mouth
    If the words you say are right
    If you pay the price
    She'll let you deep inside
    But there's a secret garden she hides
    She'll let you in her car
    To go drivin' 'round
    She'll let you into the parts of herself
    That'll bring you down
    She'll let you in her heart
    If you got a hammer and a vise
    But into her secret garden, don't think twice

    You've gone a million miles
    How far'd you get
    To that place where you can't remember
    And you can't forget

    She'll lead you down a path
    There'll be tenderness in the air
    She'll let you come just far enough
    So you know she's really there
    Then she'll look at you and smile
    And her eyes will say
    She's got a secret garden
    Where everything you want
    Where everything you need
    Will always stay
    A million miles away


    Wish you were here...

    And I'd give up forever to touch you
    Cause I know that you feel me somehow
    You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be
    And I don't want to go home right now ...

    And all I can taste is this moment
    And all I can breathe is your life ...
    Cause sooner or later it's over
    I just don't want to miss you tonight ...

    I don't want the world to see me
    Cause I don't think that they'd understand
    When everything's made to be broken
    I just want you to know who I am

    I don't know why I'm so afraid of you
    You're so easier to talk to
    And I can see my mother's arms
    Reaching down to console me
    She's singing don't worry,
    being let down is easy

    don't worry...
    don't worry...
    don't worry...
    ...it's easy

    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...

    To you I'm just a memory
    Something lost among the leaves
    Something found along the way
    And so begin these empty pages
    At the end of a dream
    Watch it slowly fade away
    The slight of hand the bait and switch
    All the parlor tricks have been played on me
    I've seen them come and watched them go
    Into the night down a road of stone
    Beware, oh take care

    I guess it takes a thief to know one
    And liars live for broken things
    Traitors just smile and smile
    The actor has his black mirror
    The poet a poison throne
    To rule his kingdom alone
    But I'm still singing the blues
    Dancing that old soft shoe
    I'm still drift'n from cloud to cloud
    Never looking to come down
    From hell to high water
    Over that angel bridge
    Out into the wilderness

    Beware, oh take care

    Star crossed lonely sailor
    You been out to sea too long
    There’s no love to save you
    When your weather has gone wrong
    So you set a course for nothingness
    From back from where you came
    Where sirens sing a song of love
    To remind you of your pain

    We all have storms on our horizon
    And we all feel the sun
    When it begins rising
    And we all follow love
    Even when it misguides us
    But we can’t see the light from here

    Silent lighthouse keeper
    With your fire burning bright
    Ever constant vigil for lost mariners in the night
    In the solitude of misty moods
    You talk only to the waves
    Who lend an ear while you disappear
    Into the dark from which you came

    We all have storms on our horizon
    And we all feel the sun
    When it begins rising
    And we all follow love
    Even when it misguides us
    But we can’t see the light from here

    Tearful grey eyed captain
    Blows his lonely horn
    His albatross above him
    While his crew sleeps safe and warm
    Set adrift through murky black
    Where the moon is out to play
    Where only those pure of heart can find their way today

    We all have storms on our horizon
    And we all feel the sun
    When it begins rising
    And we all follow love
    Even when it misguides us
    But we can’t see the light from here

    You say I seem so grim. Darling do you forgive me
    I went out on a limb 'cause I needed to be
    Near the fireflies flying high above me
    Then I hit the sky and it fell down on me

    You said it wasn't sharp but I cut my finger
    You said it just wouldn't burn and I scarred my face

    You know I bite my nails, my skin and my fingers
    And I've heard that's my liver, my nerves and my brain
    I said I just like to bite on my fucking fingers
    Do you have another intelligent answer for me today

    You said it wasn't sharp but I cut my finger
    You said it just wouldn't burn and I scarred my face
    You said it just wasn't there when it fell down on me
    Well I'm just a son of a bitch no matter what you say

    I lost my trust in you
    You were dangerous and scary
    And you poisoned me with the fruits everyone was intrigued by
    And I finally got buried

    You said I won't forget and I don't remember and
    You said I'm something I'm not and I fell on my face
    You said I wouldn't rot but worms are crawling on me
    I'm just a son of a bitch no matter what you say
    I'm just a son of a bitch no matter what you say

    I used to love her
    But I had to kill her
    I used to love her, Mm, yeah
    But I had to kill her
    I had to put her six feet under
    And I can still hear her complain

    I used to love her, Oo, yeah
    But I had to kill her
    I used to love her, Oo, yeah
    But I had to kill her
    I knew I'd miss her
    So I had to keep her
    She's buried right in my backyard
    Oh yeah, Oo yeah, whoa, oh yeah

    I used to love her
    But I had to kill her
    I used to love her, Mm, yeah
    But I had to kill her
    She bitched so much, She drove me nuts
    And now I'm happier this way, yeah
    Whoa, oh yeah

    I used to love her
    But I had to kill her
    I used to love her, Mm, yeah
    But I had to kill her
    I had to put her, Oo, six feet under
    And I can still hear her complain

    It brings a tear,
    Into my eyes,
    When I begin,
    To realize,
    I've cried so much,
    Since you've been gone,
    I guess I'm drowning in my own tears,
    I sit and cry,
    Just like a child
    My pouring tears
    Are runnin' wild
    If you don't think
    You'll be home soon
    I guess I'll drown in my own tears
    I know it's true
    Into each life
    Some rain, rain must pour
    I'm so blue
    Here without you
    It keeps raining
    More and more
    Why don't you
    Come on home
    Oh yes so I won't
    Be all alone
    If you don't think
    You'll be home soon
    I guess I'll
    (drown in my own tears)
    Ooh, don't let me
    (drown in my own tears)
    When I'm in trouble, baby
    (drown in my own tears)
    Oh, yeah, baby don't let me
    (drown in my own tears)
    I guess I'll drown in my own tears
    Oh, mmmmm.


    hear my name
    take a good look
    this could be the day
    hold my hand
    lie beside me
    i just need to say

    I breakdown in the middle and lose my thread
    No one can understand a word that I say
    When I break down just a little and lose my head
    Nothing I try to do can work the same way

    Any time it happened I'd get over it
    With a little help from all my friends
    Anybody else could see what's wrong with me
    But they walk away and just pretend

    When I breakdown ...

    When you wake up, turn the radio on
    And you'll hear this simple song ....

    That I made up, that I made up for you ...

    When you're driving, ... Turn the radio up
    Cause I can't sing loud enough
    Hard these days - To get my message through

    If time is all I have - .... I'll waste it all on you .....

    Each day I'll turn it back
    It's what the broken-hearted do
    I'm tired of talking to an empty space ....
    Of silences keeping me awake .....

    Won't you say my name, one time
    Please just say my name .....

    When you marry, And you look around
    I'll be somewhere in that crowd ....Torn up, that it isn't me

    When you're older, The memories fade
    But I know I'll still feel the same
    For as long as I live .....

    But if time is all I have ....I'll waste it all on you

    Each day I'll turn it back
    It's what the broken-hearted do
    I'm tired of talking to an empty space
    Of silences keeping me awake

    Won't you say my name, one time
    Please just say my name

    But if time is all I have
    I'll waste it all on you
    Each day I'll turn it back
    It's what the broken-hearted do
    I'm tired of talking to an empty space
    Of silences keeping me awake

    If time is all I have
    I'll waste it all on you

    Won't you say my name
    When the song is over ...

    This is not, this is not, a song
    This is a shield, this is a charm, with your name on
    By this beat, by this verse, I'm protected
    From your heat, and your curse, is reflected
    If anybody hurts me
    If anybody hurts me

    Here's a mirror with your name on
    Singing we're gonna miss you when you're gone
    Here's a mirror with your name on
    Singing we're gonna miss you when you're gone

    And did you say she was pretty?
    And did you say that she loves you?
    Baby, I dont wanna know ....

    I begin not to love you
    turn around,see me runnin ...
    I said I loved you years ago
    telling myself you never loved me ....

    no..

    And did you say she was pretty?
    And did you say that she loves you?
    Baby, I dont wanna know
    oh no..

    And Can you tell me was it worth it
    really, I dont wanna know ...

    Time cast its spell on you
    but you wont forget me
    I know I could've loved you
    but you would not let me

    I'll follow you down to the sound
    of my voice that haunts you ....
    you'll never get away from the
    sound of the woman that loves you....

    (Was I just a fool?)
