Feist

"I Feel It All"

I feel it all, I feel it all, I feel it all, I feel it all
The wings are wide, the wings are wide
Wild card inside, wild card inside

Ooh, I'll be the one who'll break my heart
I'll be the one to hold the gun

I know more than I knew before
I know more than I knew before
I didn't rest, I didn't stop
Did we fight or did we talk?

Ooh, I'll be the one who'll break my heart
I'll be the one to hold the gun

I love you more, I love you more
I don't know what I knew before
But now I know I wanna win the war

No one likes to take a test
Sometimes you know more is less
Put your weight against the door
Kick drum on the basement floor

Stranded in the fog of words
Loved him like the winter bird
On my head the water pours
Gulf stream through the open door
Fly away, fly away to what you wanna make

I feel it all, I feel it all, I feel it all, I feel it all
The wings are wide, the wings are wide
Wild card inside, wild card inside

Ooh, I'll be the one to break my heart
I'll be the one who'll break my heart
I'll be the one who'll break my heart
I'll end it, though you started it

The truth lies
The truth lied
No one knows

And lies divide
Lies divide

OMG it's my song

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8gFp3ubtpoI

No matter what has ever come to me

I got my own brand of company

I got da da da inside my head

And I play songs back to back until I got to bed

Wake up by myself inside an empty room

There's no body next to mine to oooh

But my skin is warm and my heart is full

It's the do do do do do do

Walking waking on a crowded street

With my headphones loud

So my hips can swing, so my head can nod

To the rock and roll to the boom boom beat

& I find that I'm never alone

& I find that my heart is my home

& the music within makes me whole

A world that I built on my own

& I know that I'm never alone

& I know that my heart is my home

Every missing piece of me

I can find in a melody

No matter what has ever come to me

I got my own kind of company

I got ba ba ba inside my head

And I sing songs back to back until I go to bed

There's a river in my mind that's never still

Swirling, soothing all the time gives me a thrill

Swimming in the notes that go

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

Wandering, waking in an empty wood

It is quiet here, I am powerful

I look down below serenade the world

From inside my soul

& I find that I'm never alone

& I find that my heart is my home

& the music within makes me whole

A world that I built on my own

& I know that I'm never alone

& I know that my heart is my home

Every missing piece of me

I can find in a melody

When the walls begin to creep in

And the sky is fallin down

When I'm swallowed up in feelings

I get lost inside the sound...

so we live in our old van
Travel all across this land
Me and you

We'll end up hand in hand
Somewhere down on the sand
Me and you

Just as free
Free as we'll ever be
Just as free
Free as we'll ever be

Drive until the city lights
Dissolve into a country sky
Me and you

Lay underneath the georgia moon
Do all the things that lovers do
Just me and you

Just as free
Free as we'll ever be
Just as free
Free as we'll ever be
Ever be

No we don't have a lot of money
No we don't have a lot of money
No we don't have a lot of money
All we need is love

Free as we'll ever be
Just as free
Free as we'll ever be
Ever be

So we live in our old van
Travel all across this land
Me and you

Like red on a rose
when your lips first smiled at me
I was captured instantly
to each his own
Like blue in a sky
the gaze of your willing eyes
touched something deep inside
and the truth be known

That I love you
like all little children love pennies
and I love you 'cause I know that
I can't do anything wrong
You're where I belong
like red on a rose

And I love you
like all little children love pennies
and I love you
like good times of which
I've known many
And I love you
'cause I know you give me
a heart of my own
You make my blood flow
Like Red on a Rose

Turn around - look at what you see.
In her face the mirror of your dreams.
Make believe on everywhere
get it in the line.
Hidden on the pages is the answer
To a never ending story.

Reach the stars
fly a fantasy
Dream a dream and what you see will be.

Rhymes that keep their secrets will unfold behind the clouds
And there upon the rainbow is the answer
To a never ending story
story.
Show your fear
for she may fade away
In your hands the birth of a new day.

Rhymes that keep their secrets will unfold behind the clouds . ..
Never ending story
never ending story
never ending story . . .

"Crazy" by Seal

In a church,by the face,
He talks about the people going under.

Only child know...

A man decides after seventy years,
That what he goes there for, is to unlock the door.
While those around him criticize and sleep...
And through a fractal on a breaking wall,
I see you my friend, and touch your face again.
Miracles will happen as we trip.

But we're never gonna survive, unless...
We get a little crazy
No we're never gonna survive, unless...
We are a little...

Cray...cray...cray...

...Crazy yellow people walking through my head.
One of them's got a gun, to shoot the other one.
And yet together they were friends at school
Ohh, get it, get it, get it, get it no no!

If all were there when we first took the pill,
Then maybe, then maybe, then maybe, then maybe...
Miracles will happen as we speak.

But we're never gonna survive unless...
We get a little crazy.
No we're never gonna survive unless...
We are a little...
Crazy...
No no, never survive, unless we get a little... bit...

Oh, a little bit...
Oh, a little bit...

Oh...
Oh...

Amanda decides to go along after seventeen years...

Oh darlin...
In a sky full of people, only some want to fly,
Isn't that crazy?
In a world full of people, only some want to fly,
Isn't that crazy?
Crazy...
In a heaven of people there's only some want to fly,
Ain't that crazy?
Oh babe... Oh darlin...
In a world full of people there's only some want to fly,
Isn't that crazy?
Isn't that crazy... Isn't that crazy... Isn't that crazy...

Ohh...
But we're never gonna survive unless, we get a little crazy.. crazy..
No we're never gonna to survive unless we are a little... crazy..
But we're never gonna survive unless, we get a little crazy.. crazy..
No we're never gonna to survive unless, we are a little.. crazy..
No no, never survive unless, we get a little bit...

And then you see things
The size
Of which you've never known before

They'll break it

Someday...

Only child know....

Them things
The size
Of which you've never known before

Someday...
Someway...
Someday...
Someway...
Someday...
Someway...
Someday...

one of my favorites by Bobby
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UEl4lBTc2Po

All I Really Want To Do

I ain't lookin' to compete with you,
Beat or cheat or mistreat you,
Simplify you, classify you,
Deny, defy or crucify you.
All I really want to do
Is, baby, be friends with you.

No, and I ain't lookin' to fight with you,
Frighten you or uptighten you,
Drag you down or drain you down,
Chain you down or bring you down.
All I really want to do
Is, baby, be friends with you.

I ain't lookin' to block you up
Shock or knock or lock you up,
Analyze you, categorize you,
Finalize you or advertise you.
All I really want to do
Is, baby, be friends with you.

I don't want to straight-face you,
Race or chase you, track or trace you,
Or disgrace you or displace you,
Or define you or confine you.
All I really want to do
Is, baby, be friends with you.

I don't want to meet your kin,
Make you spin or do you in,
Or select you or dissect you,
Or inspect you or reject you.
All I really want to do
Is, baby, be friends with you.

I don't want to fake you out,
Take or shake or forsake you out,
I ain't lookin' for you to feel like me,
See like me or be like me.
All I really want to do
Is, baby, be friends with you.

Why do you build me up (Build me up)
Buttercup baby just to
let me down (Let me down)
And mess me around
And then worst of all (Worst of all)
You never call baby
When you say you will (Say you will)
But I love you still
I need you (I need you)
More than anyone darlin'
You know that I have from the start

So build me up (Build me up)
Buttercup
Don't break my heart
I'll be over at ten
You tell me time and again
But you're late
I wait around and then
I went to the door
I can't take any more
It's not you
You let me down again

Baby Baby
Try to find a little time
And I'll make you happy
I'll be home
I'll be waiting beside the phone
Waiting for you.

Why do you build me up....
To you I'm a toy
But I could be the boy
You adore
If you'd just let me know
Although you're untrue
I'm attracted to you
All the more
Why do I need you so Baby Baby.....

ooh ooh ooh
Why do build me up .....

Anja Garbarek
"Strange Noises"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FqTSmOnoHBY


There were these two people
Living together in a peculiar house
This house was so peculiar
Because it made such strange noises

The couple decided that they had to move
They could no longer stand living with such strange noises
So they packed their bags and
Put on their propeller hats

And so they flew
High above the ocean and forests and mountains
To find a place
Yeah they flew far into heaven to get some peace
To find a place
That would be quiet
So - quiet

But heaven was no permanent place for this silence seeking copule
Because there there were sounds too
Sky sounds
So they left the place
So they left the place

They flew high above the birds and the clouds and the moon
To find a place
They flew far into the universe to get some peace
To find a place
They flew high above the birds and the clouds and the moon
To find a place
They flew far into the universe to get some peace
To find a place
That would be quiet
Absolutly quiet

They flew high above the birds and the clouds and the moon
To find a place
They flew far into the universe to get some peace
To find a place

But everywhere they went there were these sounds
Strange sounds
Somebody else's sounds
And somebody else's sounds are lot worse to live with than one's own

So the couple found that they might as well go back home
They took off their propeller hats and
Descended between the stars

East or west - east or west
Home is best - home is best
East or west - east or west
Home is best - home is best

Annie Lennox - No More "I Love You's"

I used to be lunatic from the gracious days
I used to be woebegone and so restless nights
My aching heart would bleed for you to see
Oh but now...
(I don't find myself bouncing round whistling
and fortunes to make me cry)
No more "I love you's"
The language is leaving me
No more "I love you's"
Changes are shifting outside the word
(The lover speaks about the monsters)
I used to have demons in my room at night
Desire,despair,desire,so many monsters
Oh but now...
(I don't find myself bouncing round whistling
and fortunes to make me cry)

No more "I love you's"
The language is leaving me
No more "I love you's"
The language is leaving me in silence
No more "I love you's"
Changes are shifting outside the word

They were being really crazy
They were on the come.
And you know what mammy?
Everybody was being really crazy.
Uh huh.
The monsters are crazy.
There are monsters outsides.

No more "I love you's"
The language is leaving me
No more "I love you's"
The language is leaving me in silence
No more "I love you's"
Changes are shifting outside the word

Outside the word

Buttercup,

I know you dont build me up just to let me down. But I can't help feeling less enthusiasm for myself, or being more critical of my creations. No matter how much you praise me or tell me you love me, I always seem to be waiting for the other shoe to drop. Its just how I am. I know things change, and I know that, ultimately, I am the one I have to satisfy. Its not that I think you're insincere. (btw: I know you dont care what other people think as much as I do, but you're probably giving people here the wrong idea with those lyrics. So then I feel like I have to explain. I'm too sensitive to the people in my environment to be giving them the wrong ideas about me. They get the wrong ideas about me enough on their own without any encouragement from you or me.) Also, I love you.

( i always loved this song)

There's a port, on a western bay
And it serves a hundred ships a day
Lonely sailors, pass the time away
And talk about their homes

And there's a girl in this harbor town
And she works layin' whiskey down
They say "Brandy, fetch another round"
She serves them whiskey and wine

The sailors say "Brandy, you're a fine girl" (you're a fine girl)
"What a good wife you would be" (such a fine girl)
"Yeah your eyes could steal a sailor from the sea"

Brandy wears a braided chain
Made of finest silver from the North of Spain
A locket that bears the name
Of the man that Brandy loves

He came on a summer's day
Bringin' gifts from far away
But he made it clear he couldn't stay
No harbor was his home

The sailor said " Brandy, you're a fine girl" (you're a fine girl)
"What a good wife you would be" (such a fine girl)
"But my life, my lover, my lady is the sea"

Yeah, Brandy used to watch his eyes
When he told his sailor stories
She could feel the ocean foam rise
She saw its ragin' glory
But he had always told the truth, lord, he was an honest man
And Brandy does her best to understand

At night when the bars close down
Brandy walks through a silent town
And loves a man who's not around
She still can hear him say

She hears him say " Brandy, you're a fine girl" (you're a fine girl)
"What a good wife you would be" (such a fine girl)
"But my life, my lover, my lady is the sea"

She hears him say " Brandy, you're a fine girl" (you're a fine girl)
"What a good wife you would be" (such a fine girl)
"But my life, my lover, my lady is the sea"

i love this song, my husband sings it to me and it brings a tear to me eye everytime. he is way more romantic than me...

I remember
Trying not to stare
the night i first me you
You had me memorized
three weeks later
in the front porch light
taking forty five minutes
to kiss good night
I hadn't told you then
I thought I loved you then

(Chorus)
now you're my whole life
now you're my whole world
I just cant believe
the way i feel about you girl
Like the river meets the sea
strong then its ever been
we've come so far since that day
and I thought I loved you then

I remember
Taking you back
To right where I first met you
you were so surprised
there were people around
but i didn't care
I got down on one knee
right there once again
I thought i loved you then

(Chorus)
now your my whole life
now you're my whole world
I just cant believe
the way i feel about you girl
Like the river meets the sea
strong then its ever been
we've come so far since that day
and I thought i loved you then

(break)

I can just see with you
with a baby on the way
i can just see you when your hair is turning gray
what i cant see
Is how I'm never gonna love you more
but I've said that before

now you're my whole life
now you're my whole world
I just cant believe
the way i feel about you girl
You'll look back some day
at this moment that we're in
and ill look at you and say
and i thought i loved you then
and i thought i loved you then

Love Is All Around - Wet Wet Wet

I feel it in my fingers
I feel it in my toes
Love is all around me
And so the feeling grows
Its written on the wind
Its everywhere I go, oh yes it is
So if you really love me
Come on and let it show
You know I love you, I always will
My minds made up by the
Way that I feel
Theres no beginning,
Therell be no end
cause on my love you can depend
I see your face before me
As I lay on my bed
I kinda get to thinking
Of all the things you said, oh yes I did
You gave your promise to me and i
Gave mine to you
I need someone beside me
In everything I do, oh yes I do
You know I love you, I always will,
My minds made up by the
Way that I feel
Theres no beginning,
Therell be no end
cause on my love you can depend
Got to keep it moving
Oh its written in the wind
Oh everywhere I go, yeah, oh well
So if you really love me, love me, love me
Come on and let it show
Come on and let it show

valus,
absolutely not. what i think about your life should be taken with a grain of salt.

my opinion on your relationship should never matter to you.

i mean its nice that i like yin, but if i didn't, it shouldn't effect you.

i think we can look at and consider other peoples opinions or what they think, but ultimately only what we conclude should really matter.

i guess it is my experience that people talk a lot of crap about stuff they don't really know about, so who cares what they think. if you think my husband is a jerk, i really don't care. if i think my husband is a jerk, it matters.

see.

Especially on an Internet forum where they only see a fraction of a personality, a mask, a character in a play but never the whole picture, never the true picture.

I was thinking more of your opinions on my political views, and how I go about communicating them. And I agree, people mostly talk about things they know nothing about, and make hardly any effort at being objective. "The majority of men do not think in order to know the truth, but, in order to assure themselves that the life which they are living, and which is both habitual and agreeable to them, is the one that coincides with the truth." ~ Tolstoy (The Kingdom of God is Within You)

yin, you seem like such a awesome cool person...

but they do it in real life too. mostly jealous people or people or people that only feel good about themselves if they cut others down. thats why what anyone else thinks shouldn't matter. they don't live my life.

bonnie raitt

People are talkin', talkin' about people
I hear them whisper, you won't believe it
(Ah ha)
They think we're lovers kept under covers
(Ooh hoo)
I just ignore it, they keep sayin'

Laugh just a little too loud
(A little too loud)
Stand just a little too close
(Too close)
Stare just a little too long
Maybe they're seein', somethin' we don't darlin'

Let's give 'em somethin' to talk about
(Somethin' to talk about)
Let's give 'em somethin' to talk about
(Somethin' to talk about)
I want a little somethin' to talk about
I want your love
(Love love love love)

Well I feel so foolish, I've never noticed that
(Ah ha)
Baby you're actin' so nervous like you're fallin' for me
(Ah ha)
It took a rumor to make me wonder
(Ooh hoo)
Now I'm convinced that i'm goin' under

An I think 'bout you everyday
(Everyday)
Dreamin' 'bout you every night
(Every night)
Hopin' that you feel the same way
Now that we know it, let's really show it baby
(Darlin')

When you come there'll be somethin' to talk about
(Somethin' to talk about)
A little mystery to figure out
(Somethin' to talk about)
I want you somethin' to talk about
I want your love
(Love love love love)

Give 'em something to talk about, babe
I got some mystery, Why don't you just figure out?
Let's give them somethin' to talk about
How about love?
(Love love love love)

Ooh hoo let's give 'em somethin'
(Somethin' to talk about)
Hey a mystery won't hurt
(Somethin' to talk about)
There is somethin' to talk about
How about love? Alright
(Love love love love)

(Somethin' to talk about)
(Somethin' to talk about)
