    don't know if this one has been posted yet but here it is

    Little one don't be a fool i'm a wreck when i look mighty
    in euphoria i'm bruised in confusion next i'm lightning
    in complacence i am small through oblivion i charge

    So follow my way
    when i'm not leading anyone
    open and frayed
    when you can see that i'm unsure
    out of my way i'm only pure when i get lost
    and you're only needing when you're finding that i'm not

    you're just looking for a boy
    bathed in infared and sunlight
    i'm all polish and reward
    when i'm confident i'm hopeless
    just like everybody else right before they fall apart

    so follow my way
    when i am falling from your heart
    when i'm the pain fever and sweet relief in one
    out of my way
    though i'm not worthy of your trust
    follow me down into a swan dive
    all eyes closed tightly

    lowly slowly now i know i like where you go when you're gone
    warm your hands inside my veins i might be contagious
    through oblivion i charge

    follow my way
    when i am useless to your cause
    when i derail
    calm in the patience of remorse
    out on my way
    out on my empty open nerves
    when all you know
    is that i don't know where we are
    when all you know
    is that i don't know
    follow my way

    Chris Cornell - follow my way
    You can't save someone from drowning when you're treading water yourself. E.V.

    If there`s one thing in my life that`s missing
    It`s the time that I spend alone
    Sailing on the cool and bright clear water
    There`s lots of those friendly people
    They`re showing me ways to go
    But I never want to lose their inspiration
    Time for a cool change
    I know that it`s time for a cool change
    And I know that my life is so pre-arranged
    I know that it`s time for a cool change
    Well I was born in the sign of water
    And it`s there that I feel my best
    The albatros and the whales they are my brothers
    And it`s kind of a special feeling
    When you`re out on the sea alone
    Staring at the full moon like a lover
    I`ve never been romantic
    And sometimes I don`t care
    I know it may sound selfish
    But let me breathe the air
    If there`s one thing in my life that`s missing
    It`s the time that I spend alone
    Sailing on the cool and bright clear water
    It`s kind of a special feeling
    When you`re out on the sea alone
    Staring at the full moon like a lover
    sometimes you're the boxer...sometimes you're the bag...

    You only live twice or so it seems
    One life for yourself and one for your dreams
    You drift through the years and life seems tame
    'Til one dream appears and love is its name

    And love is a stranger who'll beckon you on
    Don't think of the danger or the stranger is gone

    This dream is for you, so pay the price
    Make one dream come true, you only live twice

    And love is a stranger who'll beckon you on
    Don't think of the danger or the stranger is gone
    This dream is for you, so pay the price
    Make one dream come true, you only live twice

    Hey my friend
    It seems your eyes are troubled
    Care to share your times with me
    Would you say you're feeling low and so
    A good idea would be to get it off your mind

    See, you and me
    Have a better time than most can dream
    Have it better than the best
    And so can pull on through
    Whatever tears at us
    Whatever holds us down
    And if nothing can be done
    We'll make the best of what's around

    Turns out not where but who you're with
    That really matters
    And hurts not much when you're around

    If you hold on tight
    To what you think is your thing
    You may find you're missing all the rest
    She run up into the light surprised
    Her arms are open
    Her mind's eye is

    Seeing things from a
    Clearer side than most can dream
    On a better road I feel
    So you could say she's safe
    Whatever tears at her
    Whatever holds her down
    And if nothing can be done
    She'll make the best of what's around

    Turns out not where but what you think
    That really matters
    And hurts not much when you're around

    Hey, here is the story
    Forget about your troubles in life
    Don't you know it's not easy
    When you've gotta walk upon that line

    That's why
    You need
    That's what
    This is what you need
    I'll give you what you need

    Don't you get sad and lonely
    You need a change from what you do all day
    Ain't no sense in all your crying
    Just pick it up and throw it into shape

    Hey you won't you listen
    This is not the end of it all
    Don't you see there is a rhythm
    I'll take you where you really need to be

    Every now and then I get like this
    And it isn't hard to see
    But the old man in the kitchen
    I think he's part of me
    Don't say nothing 'bout the old house
    'Cause I burned it to the ground
    And when the darkness comes, I lie awake
    Playing lost and found
    All at once
    I break my silence
    All at once
    There's no more hiding
    And all he wants
    Is to show us how he feels

    They're all liars in the back room
    Watch them all go down
    They can tell you what you want to hear
    But they will never stick around
    So don't say nothing 'bout the old house
    'Cause I burned it to the ground
    And when the darkness comes I'll lie and wait
    Still playing lost and found
    All at once
    I break my silence
    All at once
    There's no more hiding
    And all he wants
    Is to show us how he feels

    When he comes around
    Do not tell him nothing
    Do not make a sound
    'Cause if he knows we're there
    He might tear his heart out
    And beat us to death with it
    I was too young to understand...
    I was too young to understand
    All at once
    Break my silence all at once
    There's no more hiding
    All he wants
    Is to show us how he feels


    All At Once ~ Pete Yorn

    In My Life
    by Warren Haynes


    I can’t save you - but I can talk you down
    I can hold you - but I won’t watch you drown

    In my life - things have a way of growing downward
    And I don’t know if I can watch myself be a coward
    Again

    I don’t know you like I thought I did
    But I will show you things that I kept hid

    In my life - I’ve always been the one that had to ruin things
    So I don’t know - is some dark angel pulling on my heart strings
    Again

    In my life - things have a kind of ragged beauty
    And I don’t seem to know right from wrong
    Or so they say - unless it’s happening to me

    People change - I don’t know what for
    Strangers walking in and out my door

    Something’s got to change - the past just hangs here to remind me
    That one of these mornings - I’ll reach for you
    And find me

    I have told you - I won’t watch you drown
    I can’t save you - but I will be around

    I still remember a year ago
    The times we spent
    I think that I'm happier now
    Up from the down
    By all means
    It's strange cause I feel the same way

    I think of what it looks like
    I think of what it tastes like
    Same strange
    Said it's strange cause i feel the same

    Makes me ill

    Still remember what it tastes like
    What it felt like

    "Have I told you lately that I love you?" Song for you.................



    I will believe you
    If you say it's true
    Boy you know I need you more than any word spoken

    I've seen you before
    Turn and walk away
    You say you won't come back
    It's just a game anyway

    We are hoping
    Yes and we're praying

    This time
    Will be the last time
    That we will fight like this

    We are always wanting
    Things we cannot find
    You know that we are always wasting time

    You know I can forget
    We have fought before
    I've seen inside your heart
    And I know it's breaking

    No matter where you are
    I can still hear you when you drown
    You've traveled very far
    Just to see you I'll come around
    When I'm down
    All of those yesterdays
    Coming around

    No matter where you are
    I can still hear you when you dream
    You traveled very far
    You traveled far, like a star
    And you are
    All of those yesterdays
    Coming around

    Is it something someone said?
    Was it something someone said?

    Yesterday the sky was you
    And I still feel the same
    Nothing left for me to do
    And I still feel the same

    I wish, I wish I could fly
    I wish, I wish I could lie
    I will, I will try
    I will, I will
    Goodbye

    I've been searching for you
    I heard a cry within my soul
    I've never had a yearning quite like this before
    Now that you are walking through my door.

    All of my life
    Where have you been
    I wonder if I'll ever see you again
    And if that day comes
    I know we could win
    I wonder if I'll ever see you again

    A sacred gift of heaven
    For better, worse, wherever
    And I would never let somebody break you down.
    Or steal your crown... never

    All my life
    Where have you been
    I wonder if I'll ever see you again
    And if that day comes
    I know we could win
    I wonder if I'll ever see you again

    At every time, I' ve always known
    That you where there, upon your throne
    A lonely queen, without her king
    I longed for you, my love forever

    All of my life
    Where have you been
    I wonder if I' ll ever see you again
    And if that day comes
    I know we could win
    I wonder if I' ll ever see you again

    All of my life...
    repeat two times

    I wonder if I' ll ever see you again
    I wonder if I' ll ever see you again
    I wonder if I' ll ever see you again
    I wonder if I' ll ever see you again

    I wonder if I' ll ever see you again
    I wonder if I' ll ever see you again
    I wonder if I' ll ever see you again
    I know someday you will have a beautiful Life

    Come away with me in the night
    Come away with me
    And I will write you a song

    Come away with me on a bus
    Come away with me where they can't tempt us
    With their lies

    I want to walk with you
    On a cloudy day
    In fields where the yellow grass grows
    Knee kigh
    So won't you try to come

    Come away with me and we'll kiss
    On a mountain top
    Come away with me
    And I'll never stop loving you

    And I want to wake up with the rain
    Falling on a tin roof
    While I'm safe there in your arms
    So all I ask is for you
    To come away with me in the night
    Come away with me


    Come Away With Me ~ Norah Jones
    We’ll meet again, but not yet…not yet.

    To Ramona By Bob Dylan

    Ramona, come closer
    Shut softly your watery eyes
    The pangs of your sadness
    Will pass as your senses will rise
    The flowers of the city
    Though breathlike, get deathlike at times
    And there's no use in tryin'
    To deal with the dyin'
    Though I cannot explain that in lines.

    Your cracked country lips
    I still wish to kiss
    As to be by the strength of you skin
    Your magnetic movements
    Still capture the minutes I'm in
    But it grieves my heart, love
    To see you tryin' to be a part of
    A world that just don't existv It's all just a dream, babe
    A vacuum, a scheme, babe
    That sucks you into feelin' like this.

    I can see that your head
    Has been twisted and fed
    With worthless foam from the mouth
    I can tell you are torn
    Between stayin' and returnin'
    Back to the South
    You've been fooled into thinking
    That the finishin' end is at hand
    Yet there's no one to beat you
    No one to defeat you
    'Cept the thoughts of yourself feeling bad

    I've heard you say many times
    That you're better 'n no one
    And no one is better 'n you
    If you really believe that
    You know you have
    Nothing to win and nothing to lose
    From fixtures and forces and friends
    Your sorrow does stem
    That hype you and type you
    Making you feel
    That you gotta be just like them.

    I'd forever talk to you
    But soon my words
    They would turn into a meaningless ring
    For deep in my heart
    I know there is no help I can bring
    Everything passes
    Everything changes
    Just do what you think you should do
    And someday, maybe
    Who knows, baby
    I'll come and be cryin' to you.
    So that is how I learned the lesson that everyone is alone. And your eyes must do some raining if you are ever going to grow. But when crying don't help and you can't compose yourself. It is best to compose a poem, an honest longing or simple song of hope.
    That is why I'm singing

    Bright light city gonna set my soul
    Gonna set my soul on fire
    Got a whole lot of money that’s ready to burn,
    So get those stakes up higher
    There’s a thousand pretty women waitin’ out there
    And they’re all livin’ devil may care
    And I’m just the devil with love to spare
    Viva las vegas, viva las vegas

    How I wish that there were more
    Than the twenty-four hours in the day
    ’cause even if there were forty more
    I wouldn’t sleep a minute away
    Oh, there’s black jack and poker and the roulette wheel
    A fortune won and lost on ev’ry deal
    All you need’s a strong heart and a nerve of steel
    Viva las vegas, viva las vegas

    Viva las vegas with you neon flashin’
    And your one armbandits crashin’
    All those hopes down the drain
    Viva las vegas turnin’ day into nighttime
    Turnin’ night into daytime
    If you see it once
    You’ll never be the same again

    I’m gonna keep on the run
    I’m gonna have me some fun
    If it costs me my very last dime
    If I wind up broke up well
    I’ll always remember that I had a swingin’ time
    I’m gonna give it ev’rything I’ve got
    Lady luck please let the dice stay hot
    Let me shout a seven with ev’ry shot
    Viva las vegas, viva las vegas,
    Viva, viva las vegas

    Cinnamon Girl (neil young)



    I wanna live
    with a cinnamon girl
    I could be happy
    the rest of my life
    With a cinnamon girl.

    A dreamer of pictures
    I run in the night
    You see us together,
    chasing the moonlight,
    My cinnamon girl.

    Ten silver saxes,
    a bass with a bow
    The drummer relaxes
    and waits between shows
    For his cinnamon girl.

    A dreamer of pictures
    I run in the night
    You see us together,
    chasing the moonlight,
    My cinnamon girl.

    Pa sent me money now
    I'm gonna make it somehow
    I need another chance
    You see your baby loves to dance
    Yeah...yeah...yeah.
    So that is how I learned the lesson that everyone is alone. And your eyes must do some raining if you are ever going to grow. But when crying don't help and you can't compose yourself. It is best to compose a poem, an honest longing or simple song of hope.

    You and me
    Meant to be
    Immutable
    Impossible
    It's destiny
    Pure lunacy
    Incalculable
    Insufferable
    But for the last time
    You're everything that I want and ask for
    You're all that I'd dreamed
    Who wouldn't be the one you love
    Who wouldn't stand inside your love
    Protected and the lover of
    A pure soul and beautiful you
    Don't understand
    Don't feel me now
    I will breathe
    For the both of us
    Travel the world
    Traverse the skies
    Your home is here
    Within my heart
    And for the first time
    I feel as though I am reborn
    In my mind
    Recast as child and mystic sage
    Who wouldn't be the one you love
    Who wouldn't stand inside your love
    And for the first time
    I'm telling you how much I need and bleed for
    Your every move and waking sound
    In my time
    I'll wrap my wire around your heart and your mind
    You're mine forever now
    Who wouldn't be the one you love and live for
    Who wouldn't stand inside your love and die for
    Who wouldn't be the one you love

    1, 2, 1, 2...
    know a man, his face seems pulled and tense
    like he's riding on a motorbike in the strongest winds
    so i approach with tact
    suggest that he should relax
    but he's always moving much too fast
    said he'll see me on the flipside
    on this trip he's taken for a ride
    he's been taking too much on
    there he goes with his perfectly unkept clothes
    there he goes...
    he's yet to come back
    but i've seen his picture
    it doesn't look the same up on the rack
    we go way back
    i wonder about his insides
    its like his thoughts are too big for his size
    he's been taken... where, i don't know?
    off he goes with his perfectly unkept hope
    and there he goes...
    and now i rub my eyes, for he has returned
    seems my preconceptions are what should have been burned
    for he still smiles...
    and he's still strong
    nothing's changed, but the surrounding bullshit that has grown
    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 know someday you will have a beautiful Life

    nice one JDE-PJ :)

    i was listening to an 1987 GD show today and the fat man in black did this one as an encore. it just also happens to be the last song he sang live with his band. today, almost 10 years later, i'm still missing the dude. rip jg. there's a tear in the corner of my eye...



    "Black Muddy River"
    Words by Robert Hunter; music by Jerry Garcia
    Copyright Ice Nine Publishing

    When the last rose of summer pricks my finger
    And the hot sun chills me to the bone
    When I can't hear the song for the singer
    And I can't tell my pillow from a stone

    I will walk alone by the black muddy river
    And sing me a song of my own
    I will walk alone by the black muddy river
    And sing me a song of my own

    When the last bolt of sunshine hits the mountain
    And the stars start to splatter in the sky
    When the moon splits the southwest horizon
    With the scream of an eagle on the fly

    I will walk alone by the black muddy river
    And listen to the ripples as they moan
    I will walk alone by the black muddy river
    And sing me a song of my own

    Black muddy river
    Roll on forever
    I don't care how deep or wide
    If you got another side
    Roll muddy river
    Roll muddy river
    Black muddy river roll

    When it seems like the night will last forever
    And there's nothing left to do but count the years
    When the strings of my heart start to sever
    And stones fall from my eyes instead of tears

    I will walk alone by the black muddy river
    And dream me a dream of my own
    I will walk alone by the black muddy river
    And sing me a song of my own
    And sing me a song of my own
