Fortress Around Yur Heart
Sting & The Police

"It took a day to build the city
We walked through its streets in the afternoon
As I returned across the fields I'd known
I recognised the walls that I once made
I had to stop in my tracks for fear
Of walking on the mines I'd laid

And if I built this fortress around your heart
Encircled you in trenches and barbed wire
Then let me build a bridge
For I cannot fill the chasm
And let me set the battlements on fire"

just pulled ol' Bill out and dusted him off...

Use Me
Bill Withers

My friends feel it's their appointed duty
They keep trying to tell me all you want to do is use me
But my answer yeah to all that use me stuff
Is I wanna spread the news that if it feels this good getting used
Oh you just keep on using me until you use me up
Until you use me up

My brother sit me right down and he talked to me
He told me that I ought not to let you just walk on me
And I'm sure he meant well yeah but when our talk was through
I said brother if you only knew you'd wish that you were in my shoes
You just keep on using me until you use me up
Until you use me up

Oh sometimes yeah it's true you really do abuse me
You get in a crowd of high class people and then you act real rude to me
But oh baby baby baby baby when you love me I can't get enough
I and I wanna spread the news that if it feels this good getting used
Oh you just keep on using me until you use me up
Until you use me up

Talking about you using me but it all depends on what you do
It ain't too bad the way you're using me
Cause I sure am using you to do the things you do
Ah ha to do the things you do

Never made it as a wise man
I couldn't cut it as a poor man stealing
Tired of living like a blind man
I'm sick of sight without a sense of feeling
And this is how you remind me
This is how you remind me
Of what I really am
This is how you remind me
Of what I really am

It's not like you to say sorry
I'm always waitin' on a different story
This time I'm mistaken
for handing you a heart worth breaking
and I've been wrong, i've been down,
to the bottom of every bottle
these five words in my head
scream "are we having fun yet?"

yeah, yeah, yeah, no, no
yeah, yeah, yeah, no, no

It's not like you didn't know that
I said I love you and I swear I still do
And it must have been so bad
Cause living with me must have damn near killed you

And this is how, you remind me
Of what I really am
This is how, you remind me
Of what I really am

It's not like you to say sorry
I'm always waiting on a different story
This time I'm mistaken
for handing you a heart worth breaking
and I've been wrong, i've been down,
been to the bottom of every bottle
these five words in my head
scream "are we having fun yet?"

yet, yet, yet, no, no
yet, yet, yet, no, no
yet, yet, yet, no, no
yet, yet, yet, no, no

Never made it as a wise man
I couldn't cut it as a poor man stealing
And this is how you remind me
This is how you remind me
This is how you remind me
Of what i really am
This is how you remind me
Of what i really am

It's not like you to say sorry
I'm always waitin' on a different story
This time I'm mistaken
for handing you a heart worth breaking
and I've been wrong, i've been down,
been to the bottom of every bottle
these five words in my head
scream "are we having fun yet?"
yet, yet
are we having fun yet

are we having fun yet

are we having fun yet

no
no

Pets

Children are innocent
A teenager's ****** up in the head
Adults are even more ****** up
And elderlies are like children

Will there be another race
To come along and take over for us?
Maybe martians could do
Better than we've done
We'll make great pets!
We'll make great pets!
We'll make great pets!
We'll make great pets!
We'll make great pets!
We'll make great pets!
We'll make great pets!
We'll make great pets!

My friend says we're like the dinosaurs
Only we are doing ourselves in
Much faster than they
Ever did
We'll make great pets!
We'll make great pets!
We'll make great pets!
We'll make great pets!
We'll make great pets!
We'll make great pets!
We'll make great pets!
We'll make great pets!

We will make great pets
We'll make great pets!
We'll make great pets!
We'll make great pets!
We will make great pets!
We'll make great pets!
We'll make great pets!
We'll make great pets!


Jane's Addiction

Ocean Size

wish I was ocean size
they cannot move you
no one tries no one pulls you
out from your hole
like a tooth aching a jawbone...
i was made with a heart of stone
to be broken
with one hard blow
i've seen the ocean
break on the shore
come together with no harm done...
it ain't easy living...
i want to be
as deep
as the ocean
mother ocean
some people tell me
home is in the sky
in the sky lives a spy
i want to be more like the ocean
no talking
all

Artist: Porno For Pyros
Song: 100 Ways
Album: Good God's Urge

You didn't have to give your necklace, to me before I left
Now I lay awake and think, how very smart you were
I thought about you every day
I hear the rain comin' in from miles away
The air is as clean as your skin next to my face
Thought about you every day

100 ways
I thought about you and me a hundred ways
100 ways

And now I lay awake and dream you're right above my face
Look into my eyes the way you do, don't look away
Thought about you every day
Birds build their homes here right above my head
They make the same kind of sounds you do
When we're laying in my bed

100 ways
I thought about you and me a hundred ways
100 ways

And if I had my way, when I woke up, in the morning
I would read and write, before I ever drew the shades
I would kiss you, before you opened up your eyes
Birds build their homes right above my head
They make the same kind of sounds you do
When we're laying in my bed

100 ways
I thought about you and me a hundred ways
100 ways

T {{{ }}}

how do you hold heaven,
then let go?

I am blessed,
my heart so grateful,

It hurts, tears of thankfulness.

Kimberly Austin

I like to watch her sway
She's luck before I'm going away
I wonder what she thinks about herself
She is mine and no one else's
Kim
Kim
Kimberly Austin
She turns the knife around
I watch her run it down her side
Kisses my fingers when I go by
See my mother in her eyes
Kim
Kim
Kimberly Austin
I like to watch her sway
She's luck before I'm going away
I like what she sees in herself
Gives me all of her confidence
Kim
Kim
Kimberly Austin

such a pretty song.

Mountain Song Lyrics
Artist(Band):Jane's Addiction

comin' down the mountain
one of many children
everybody has
their own opinion
everybody has
their own opinion
holding it back
hurts so bad
jumping out of my flesh
and i said

cash in!
cash in now honey
cash in now
cash in now baby
cash in now honey
cash in miss smith
cash in now baby!

i was comin down the mountain
met a child she had pin eyes
we had the same opinion
had the same opinion
she was holding it back
it hurts do bad
jumping out of her flesh
and i said

cash in!
cash in now honey
cash in now
cash in now baby
cash in now honey
cash in miss smith
cash in now baby!

How we will crawl

Ten Thousand Angels
Caedmon's Call

how long you have traveled in darkness weeping
no rest in language, no words to speak
but there in the wreckage beneath bricks and bindings
love has come, love has come for you

against the night sky of your waiting
your face is like starlight when he walks in
everything worth keeping comes through dying
love has come, love has come for you

so lift up your heart now, to this unfolding
all that has been broken will be restored
here runs deep waters for all who are thirsty
love has come, love has come for you

ten thousand angels will light your pathway
until the day breaks fully in the East
they will surround you and make your way straight
love has come, love has come for you
love has come, love has come for you

This was always my favorite off the tahijan moon album.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pYz3FITQmXs


Ate a mushroom turned into Bali
Didn't look it just jumped down my throat
I was starting to die until I
Took a trip to Bali
Their eyes are god
In a glass full of jelly
Bali in my eyes

My skin turned the color of the earth
I felt like a tree
People asked my name the next day
They remembered who I was
I took off my shoes
And my feet they took root
I've got Bali in my eyes

When I opened up my eyes first thing
Early light in Bali
What a day it's gonna be I think
It looks good already
So hold me close before
All the doors start knocking!
There's Bali in my eyes...

I was riding shotgun with my hair undone in the front seat of his car
He's got a one-hand feel on the steering wheel
The other on my heart
I look around, turn the radio down
He says baby is something wrong?
I say nothing I was just thinking how we don't have a song
And he says...


Our song is a slamming screen door,
Sneakin' out late, tapping on your window
When we're on the phone and you talk real slow
Cause it's late and your mama don't know
Our song is the way you laugh
The first date "Man I didn't kiss her, and I should have"
And when I got home ... before I said amen
Asking God if he could play it again


I was walking up the front porch steps after everything that day
Had gone all wrong and been trampled on
And lost and thrown away
Got to the hallway, well on my way to my lovin' bed
I almost didn't notice all the roses
And the note that said...


Our song is a slamming screen door,
Sneakin' out late, tapping on your window
When we're on the phone and you talk real slow
Cause it's late and your mama don't know
Our song is the way you laugh
The first date "Man I didn't kiss her, and I should have"
And when I got home ... before I said amen
Asking God if he could play it again


I've heard every album, listened to the radio
Waited for something to come along
That was as good as our song...

Cause our song is a slamming screen door
Sneaking out late, tapping on his window
When we're on the phone and he talks real slow
Cause it's late and his mama don't know
Our song is the way he laughs
The first date "man, I didn't kiss him, and I should have"
And when I got home, before I said amen
Asking God if he could play it again

play it again

I was riding shotgun with my hair undone
In the front seat of his car
I grabbed a pen and an old napkin
And I... wrote down our song

Better
Tom Baxter

Our love has changed,
It’s not the same,
And the only way to say it –
Is say it – It’s better.

I can’t concede,
This way I feel,
For all the time we spent, together,
Forever – Just gets better.

See what I’m trying to say is:
You make things - better
And no matter what the day is,
With you here - it’s better.

I’ll stand by you,
If you stand by me.
I think time that I, reveal it,
‘Cos I believe it -
It’s better.

See what I’m trying to say is:
You make things - better
And no matter what the day is,
With you here - it’s better.

Ooooh the more – I – talk – to – you
The more in love with
Ev – ry – thing – you – do

Doo doo doo doo doo doo (hum chorus)

See what I’m trying to say is:
You make things - better
And no matter what the day is,
With you here - it’s better.

Our love has changed
It’s not the same
And the only way to say it –
Is say it – It’s better

WILD ORCHID LYRICS

"He's Alright"

He's alright, my baby is alright
He knows what I like naturally
My man is all right, Yeah he's got it right
My baby's alright, alright with me

There are men, then there are men (oh yeah)
And mine is a Mercedes Benz
He's so strong, yet so gentle (he's so)
He always know the right things to say
Even on my bad days

Makes no demand, he understands
He's not afraid to say (I love you)
Maybe he don't live (in a mansion)
Maybe he don't drive (nothing fancy)
But he revs me up, the lovin that he gives to me is enough

He's alright, my baby is alright
He knows what I like naturally
My man is all right, Yeah he's got it right
My baby's alright, alright with me

In a crowd, he stands out (stands out)
He's a gentleman without a doubt
He's so smooth, yet so sexy (so so sexy)
He's versatile and that really gets me
If you know what I mean

He's mystical, logical
He brightens up the (darkest day)
Maybe he don't wear (Valentino)
But he don't care (because he knows)
That what's inside is better than anything money can buy

He's alright, my baby is alright
He knows what I like naturally
My man is all right, Yeah he's got it right
My baby is alright, sexually

So right that it makes me go, Yeah, Yeah...

He got the goody goody goody goody good lovin
Feels so nice when we're kissin and huggin
He got the goody goody, the good lovin

Keep ma bell dem ringin
And when him touch mi body an it
Feels so fine
Ina mi heart
Ina mi mind
Whenever I'm in danger
He's my knight in shining armor...do it

Him a raise mi temperature to the extreme
(He's logical and mystical the man of all my dreams)
Get me so hot...my haffa let off steam

Nice and clean

Body well lean
(Come and touch my light)
Good lovin everyday...Ladies whe you sel..

Makes no demand, he understands
He's not afraid to say (I love you)
Maybe he don't live (in a mansion)
Maybe he don't drive (nothing fancy)
But he revs me up, the lovin that he gives to me is enough

He's alright, my baby is alright
He knows what I like naturally
My man is all right, Yeah he's got it right
My baby is alright, sexually

He's alright, my baby is alright
He knows what I like naturally
My man is all right, my baby, he's my baby
