Lyrics of the moment

PearlOfAGirl

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, reign o'er 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, rain on me
Love, reign o'er me, rain on me, 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

Love, reign o'er me, rain on me
Oh love, reign o'er me, reign on me

PearlOfAGirl

the direction of the eye
so misleading
the defection of the soul
nauseously quick

I don't question
our existence
I just question
our modern needs

I will walk...with my hands bound
I will walk...with my face blood
I will walk...with my shadow flag
into your garden
garden of stone

after all is done
we're still alone
I won't be taken
yet I'll go...

I will walk...with my hands bound
I will walk...with my face blood
I will walk...with my shadow flag
into your garden
garden of stone

I don't show...
I don't share...
I don't need
what you have to give...

I got the call today, I didn't wanna hear
But I knew that it would come
An old true friend of ours was talkin' on the phone
She said you found someone
And I thought of all the bad luck,
And the struggles we went through
And how I lost me and you lost you
What are these voices outside love's open door
Make us throw off our contentment
And beg for something more?

I'm learning to live without you now
But I miss you sometimes
The more I know, the less I understand
All the things I thought I knew, I'm learning again
I've been tryin' to get down to the Heart of the Matter
But my will gets weak
And my thoughts seem to scatter
But I think it's about forgiveness
Forgiveness
Even if, even if you don't love me anymore

These times are so uncertain
There's a yearning undefined
...People filled with rage
We all need a little tenderness
How can love survive in such a graceless age
The trust and self-assurance that can lead to happiness
They're the very things we kill, I guess
Pride and competition cannot fill these empty arms
And the work I put between us,
Doesn't keep me warm

I'm learning to live without you now
But I miss you, Baby
The more I know, the less I understand
All the things I thought I figured out, I have to learn again
I've been tryin' to get down to the Heart of the Matter
But everything changes
And my friends seem to scatter
But I think it's about forgiveness
Forgiveness
Even if, even if you don't love me anymore

There are people in your life who've come and gone
They let you down and hurt your pride
Better put it all behind you; life goes on
You keep carrin' that anger, it'll eat you inside

I've been tryin' to get down to the Heart of the Matter
But my will gets weak
And my thoughts seem to scatter
But I think it's about forgiveness
Forgiveness
Even if, even if you don't love me anymore

I've been tryin' to get down to the Heart of the Matter
Because the flesh will get weak
And the ashes will scatter
So I'm thinkin' about forgiveness
Forgiveness
Even if, even if you don't love me anymore

I'm sorry baby but you can't stand in my light anymore
You're moving back to the shadows
I can't fight this anymore.

I tried to heal you and I tried to fix you
I tried to show you compassion
I tried to listen, I tried to love you even though you were broken.

I let you get up close to me, I let you feel the warm and the calm
And you resisted, it took me time to notice
But now I see the shadows as they fall.

I always find the broken ones, what does this say about me?
Maybe I'm the broken one, maybe when the lights go down
Maybe I'm the one who feels lonely.

I'm sorry baby but you can't stand in my light anymore
You're moving back to the shadows
I can't fight you anymore.

Hate to leave you standing in the corner on your own
But you can't feel the sun unless you open up your heart, yeah
Oh, I'm sorry baby.

This is the dawning of our time I say it one more time
to emphasize the meaning of my rhyme
to rise above all the dirt and grime
add the right spice at the right time
f.u.c.k. the constitution
are we part of the solution or are we part of the pollution
sittin' by and wonderin' why,
things ain't the way we like to find them to be, to be
for you and for me the people over there and the ones in between
check our habitation are we a peace lovin' nation
peace lovin' nation
I have a reasonable doubt I think I'll just spell it out
there's no need to scream or to shout


Peace

Remember when I said I won't miss you?
The truth is that I do
I never stop thinkin' about you (about you)
We are meant together
The two of us abound
Now it seems like forever I can't get you off my mind

If I could wish upon a star
Then I would hold you in my arms (in my arms)
And I know we could love once again (we could love again)
If I could turn the hands of time
Then you would love me still be mine (mine)
Baby I would be right where you are (where you are)
If I could wish upon a star

It’s obvious and everyone can see
That baby you and I are truly meant to be
But nothing turns out right (nothing turns out right)
If only I could make you realize
If only time could (give us just another chance)
I'd prove it all to you

If I could wish upon a star
If I could turn the hands of time
Then I’d be in your arms again

If I could wish upon a star
Then I would hold you in my arms (in my arms)
And I know we could love once again (we could love again)
If I could turn the hands of time
Then you would love me still be mine (mine)
Baby I would be right where you are (where you are)
If I could wish upon a star

If I could wish upon a star.

PearlOfAGirl

The first time ever I saw your face
I thought the sun rose in your eyes
And the moon and stars were the gifts you gave
To the dark and the empty skies, my love,
To the dark and the empty skies.

The first time ever I kissed your mouth
And felt your heart beat close to mine
Like the trembling heart of a captive bird
That was there at my command, my love
That was there at my command.

And the first time ever I lay with you
I felt your heart so close to mine
And I knew our joy would fill the earth
And last till the end of time my love
It would last till the end of time my love

The first time ever I saw your face, your face,
your face, your face

Good Ol' Neil... can't get him out of my head today

When we were living together
I thought that
I knew you would stay.
Still when you left me
I tried to pretend
we could make it some way.

I don't care
if all of the mountains
Turn to dust in the air.
(What did you do to my life?)
It isn't fair that I should
Wake up at dawn
And not find you there
(What did you do to my life?)

It's hard enough losing
Without the confusion
of knowing I tried.
But you've made your mind up
That I'll be alone
now there's nothing to hide.

I don't care
if all of the mountains
Turn to dust in the air.
(What did you do to my life?)
It isn't fair that I should
Wake up at dawn
And not find you there
(What did you do to my life?)

Diamonds hold mirrors
And spoon it holds the stars
It's been a long time baby
Since i've seen the sun rise like this
Make a wish and call it maybe
And give me one more kiss
Ooh, I like it like this
Ooh, I like it like this

Oh josephine
Youre dressed in black
Oh josephine
Your eyes are blue
And I know now
There's no turning back
Oh josephine
What will we do?

It's the dreaming through the come down
Still filling every tape
Come on and touch me baby
Before I turn to rust
I know there ain't no other
It's not a matter of trust
It's just sometimes love ain't enough
Ooh, love ain't enough

Oh josephine
Youre dressed in black
Oh josephine
Your eyes are blue
And I know now
There's no turning back
Oh josephine

What will we do?

For a while I was kneeling in tears and powder
For as well I was strung out beyond my means
Well I lost that love while climbing down the ladder
Just looking for the song to set me free

Waited for redemption
No leaving love behind
You've got to know where you wanna be
It gets cold outside
It's too late to play it safe
So let's let it all ride
Yeah, let's let it all ride
Let it all ride!

Oh josephine
Youre dressed in black
Oh josephine
Your eyes are blue
And I know now
There's no turning back
Oh josephine
What will we do?
Yeah

Oh josephine
Youre dressed in black
Oh josephine
Your eyes are blue
And I know, I know
There's no turning back
Oh josephine
What will we do?

sometimes I have a ghetto in my mind

PearlOfAGirl

If I leave here tomorrow
Would you still remember me?
For I must be traveling on, now
'Cause there's too many places
I've got to see

But, if I stayed here with you, girl
Things just couldn't be the same
'Cause I'm as free as a bird now
And this bird, you'll can not change
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

And the bird you cannot change
And this bird you cannot change
Lord knows, I can?t change
Bye, bye, baby it's been a sweet love

Yeah, yeah
Though this feeling I can't change
But please don't take it so badly
'Cause the Lord knows
I'm to blame

But, if I stayed here with you girl
Things just couldn't be the same
'Cause I'm as free as a bird now
And this bird, you'll can not change
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

And this bird you cannot change
And this bird you cannot change
Lord knows, I can't change
Lord help me, I can't change
Lord I can't change

Won't you fly high, free bird, yeah?

"Black and White"

Could be clear black and white
Make a decision
Got a need inside and I don't know why
It's a strong feeling that grows and grows

One day - my life is out the door
Next day - you show me what it's for
One day - I think I know myself
Next day - you leave me on the shelf

New moment goes like this
Never forbidden
There's nothing to stop
The thief on time, stealing
The hours that keep you away

It rushes through my veins
Straight to my head
My mind is a planet
For you to roam

This is only just the start
It's the beginning
There's nothing to stop
The thief of time
Stealing the hours
That keep you away

One day - my life is out the door
Next day - you show me what it's for
One day - I think I know myself
Next day - you leave me on the shelf

In this house I call home
Living together
Got a need inside
And I don't know why
It's a strong
Feeling and it grows and grows

One day - my life is out the door
Next day - you show me what it's for
One day - I think I know myself
Next day - you leave me on the shelf

This is only just the start
It's the beginning

New moment goes like this
Never forbidden

Could be clear black and white
Make a decision

She submits and she dominates
She gets out of her head
And she talks to the ceiling
You can hear what she said

She said
That's the difference between us
That's the difference between us
You see, that's the difference between us

"Don't Change"

I'm standing here on the ground
The sky above won't fall down
See no evil in all direction
Resolution of happiness
Things have been dark
For too long

Don't change for you
Don't change a thing for me

I found a love I had lost
It was gone for too long
Hear no evil in all directions
Execution of bitterness
Message received loud and clear

Don't change for you
Don't change a thing for me

I'm standing here on the ground
The sky above won't fall down
See no evil in all directions
Resolution of happiness
Things have been dark for too long

Don't change for you
Don't change a thing for me

"Beautiful Girl"

Nicky's in the corner
With a black coat on
Running from a bad home
With some cat inside

Now where did you find her
Among the neon lights
That haunt the streets outside
Stay with me

Beautiful girl (stay with me)
Beautiful girl (stay with me)
She wants to go home

From doorway to doorway
Street corner to corner
With the neon ghosts in the city
And she says

Stay with me
Stay with me
Stay with me
Stay with me

She's so scared
So very frightened
Anything could happen
Right here tonight

Beautiful girl (stay with me)
Beautiful girl (stay with me)
She wants to go home

Stay with me (beautiful girl)

Peace

Song from 1992 on our state of BULLYING in our country and everywhere else....

*Language Of Violence*.....Disposable Heroes Of Hiphoprisy...Michael Franti

The first day of school was always the hardest
The first day of school the hallways the darkest
Like a gauntlet
the voices haunted
Walking in with his thin skin lowered chin
He knew the names that they would taunt him with
Faggot sissy punk queen queer
Although he'd never had sex in his 15 years
And when they harassed him it was for a reason
And when they provoked him it became open season
for the fox and the hunter, the sparks and the thunder
that pushed the boy under, then pillage and plunder
It kind of makes you wonder
how one can hurt another
But dehumanizing the victim makes things simpler
It's like breathing with a respirator
It eases the conscience of even the most conscious
and calculating violator
Words can reduce a person to an object,
something more easy to hate
An inanimate entity, completely disposable,
no problem to obliterate

But death is the silence
in this language of violence
Death is the silence
But death is the silence
in this cycle of violence
death is the silence
It's tough to be young, the young long to be tougher
When we pick on someone else it might make us feel rougher
Abused by their fathers but was at home though
so to prove to each other that they were not homos
The exclamation of the phobic fury
executioner, a judge and jury
The mob mentality, individuality was nowhere
Dignity forgotten at the bottom of a dumb old dare and a numb cold
stare
On the way home it was back to name calling
Ten against one they had his back up against the wall and
they reveled in their laughter as they surrounded him
But it wasn't a game when they up jumped and grounded him
They picked up their bats with their muscles straining
and they decided they were gonna beat this fella's brain in
with an awful, powerful, showerful, an hour full of violence
Inflict the strictest brutality and dominance
They didn't hear him screaming, they didn't hear him pleading
They ran like cowards and left the boy bleeding
in a pool of red 'til all tears were shed
and his eyes quietly slid into the back of his head
dead...

I was once out strolling one very hot summer's day
When I thought I'd lay myself down to rest
in a big field of tall grass
I lay there in the sun and felt it caressing my face

And I fell asleep and dreamed
I dreamed I was in a Hollywood movie
And that I was the star of the movie
This really blew my mind, the fact that me,
an overfed, long-haired leaping gnome
should be the star of a Hollywood movie

But there I was, I was taken to a place, the hall of the mountain kings
I stood high upon a mountain top, naked to the world
In front of every kind of girl, there was
black ones, round ones, big ones, crazy ones...

Out of the middle came a lady
She whispered in my ear something crazy
She said:

Spill the wine and take that pearl, Spill the wine and take that pearl

justam

As kids, my sister and I always sang the words "spill the wine, dig that girl" in that song. I guess that was wrong. :?

vmfury

To see you when I wake up is a gift I didn't think could be real
To know that you feel the same as I do is a three-fold utopian dream
You do something to me
That I can't explain
So, would I be out of line if I said I miss you?
I see your picture, I smell your skin on the empty pillow next to mine
You have only been gone ten days, but already I am wasting away
I know I'll see you again
Whether far or soon
But I need you to know that I care
And I miss you.
