No Time This Time - The Police
Reggatta De Blanc Album

No time for the complexities of conversation
No time smiles, no time for knowing
No time for the intricacies of explanation
No time for sharing, even less for showing

If I could
I'd slow the whole world down
I'd bring it to it's knees
I'd stop it spinning round
But as it is
I'm climbing up an endless wall

No time at all
No time this time
No time at all
No time this time

No time for a quick kiss at the railway station
No time for a suitcase, sandwich and a morning paper
Only time for time tables, calls and transportation
No time to think no time to dare

If I could
I'd slow the whole world down
I'd bring it to it's knees
I'd stop it spinning round
But as it is
I'm climbing up an endless wall

No time at all
No time this time
No time at all
No time this time

If I could
I'd slow the whole world down
I'd bring it to it's knees
I'd stop it spinning round
But as it is
I'm climbing up an endless wall

No time at all
No time this time
No time at all
No time this time
No time at all
No time this time
No time at all
No time this time
No time at all

No time at all...

As long as I’m singin’
There’s a bell up in my brain that’s ringin’
Makin’ a crazy ding dong.
And if this band don’t desert me
Then there’s nothin’ in the world can hurt me
Long as I’m singin’ my song.

Give me trumpets … legato
puts some saxes with ‘em
Strings … pizzicato
add some rhythm …

As long as I’m singin’
Then the world’s all right
And everything’s swingin’
Long as I’m singin’ my song.

Makin’ music
Is more to me than a pleasure
‘cause me and music
We go together like notes in a measure.

Long as I’m singin’
Then the world’s all right
And everything’s swingin’
Long as I’m singin’ my ...

Long as I’m singin’ my ...
Long as I’m singin’ my song.


I can't give you stars that shine
Or the moon above
All I have to offer you
Is True, True Love

A True, True Love
That grows and grows
Forever and a day
Not like the rose
That only grows
Awhile, then fades away...

Tomorrows True, True Love will be
More than it is today.

Tomorrows True, True Love will be
More than it is today.



I never cared much for moonlit skies,
Never winked back at fireflies,
But now that the stars are in your eyes
I'm beginning to see the light.

I never went in for afterglow,
Or candlelight on the mistletoe,
But now when you turn the lamp down low
I'm beginning to see the light.

I used to ramble through the park
Shadow boxing in the dark
Then you came and caused the spark
That's a four-alarm fire, now.

I never made love by lantern shine,
I never saw rainbows in my wine,
But now that your lips are burning mine
I'm beginning to see the light.

I never cared much for moonlit skies,
I never winked back at fireflies,
But now that the stars are in your eyes
I'm beginning to see the light.

I never went in for afterglow,
Or candlelight on the mistletoe,
But now when you turn the lamp down low
I'm beginning to see the light.

You know I used to ramble through the park
Shadow boxing in the dark
Then you came and lit that spark
That's a four-alarm fire, now

I never made love by lantern shine,
I never saw rainbows in my wine,
But now that your lips are burning mine
I'm beginning to see the light.


Down with love the flowers and rice and shoes
Down with love the root of all midnight blues
Down with things that give you that well-known ping
Take that moon wrap it in cellophane

Down with love let's liquidate all its friends
Moon and June and roses and rainbow's ends
Down with songs that moan about night and day
Down with love yes take it away, away

Away
Far away
Give it back to the birds and bees and the Viennese

Down with eyes romantic and stupid
Down with sighs and down with cupid
Brother let's stuff that dove
Down with love

Down with love let's liquidate all its friends
The moons the Junes the roses and rainbow's ends
Down with songs that moan about night and day
Down with love yes take it away, away

Far away
So very, very far away
Give it back to the birds and the bees and especially the Viennese

Down with eyes romantic and stupid
Down with sighs and down with cupid
Brother let's stuff that dove
Down with love

=)

I'll only miss her
When I think of her
And I'll think of her...
All the time

Likely I'll spend my days
Hearing her turn a phrase
Things I found to praise right now
Would seem sublime...


The truth is
I'll only miss her
When some stranger laughs
Cause it's still her laugh
My heart hears


Maybe in time I guess...
The longing will grow the slightest bit less
And there will be moments, yes
When it disappears...
I'll bet I forget her completely...
In about a hundred years

All right …

Girl, we’re makin’ music
Lyin’ here tonight
The kind of song
That can’t last long
But keeps on feelin’ right.

I hear the tune you’re playin’
and it makes my soul unwind
But I cannot sing your melody
with another song on my mind.

O-h, n-o-o …

I can feel the shadows
Of a worn out melody
Simple tune
That ends too soon
In broken harmony.

The interludes of changin’ moods
that never seek to bind
But I cannot sing your melody
with another song on my mind.

Treat me like a movie
that you have seen before
You know the way the ending goes
but you still come back for more.

So, girl keep on composin’
Let the music be
An always kind of song for you
A sometime song for me.

And when your bed is empty
please don’t think me unkind
But I cannot sing your melody
with another song on my mind.

O-h, n-o-o …

And when your bed is empty
please don’t think me unkind
But I cannot sing your melody
with another song on my mind.

O-h, n-o-o …



Whatever you've done it's all over
Wherever you've been is so strange
Yesterday's long gone forever
Damned if what you're feelin' isn't change.

Music that used to seem hollow
Now seems to fit in your range
Today is the now and the never
Damned if what you're feelin' isn't change.

It's fun to wander along a yesterday road
trying so hard to retain
All of the wondrous and beautiful times that
never can happen again.

So get yourself up off your past, friend
There's so much to rearrange
Tomorrow sits right next to never
Damned if what your feelin' isn't change.

<3 =)

All Bobby Darin lyrics
Too bad those don't sound familiar
These do though:

Oh, the shark, babe, has such teeth, dear
And it shows them pearly white
Just a jackknife has old MacHeath, babe
And he keeps it, ah, out of sight
Ya know when that shark bites with his teeth, babe
Scarlet billows start to spread
Fancy gloves, oh, wears old MacHeath, babe
So there's never, never a trace of red

Now on the sidewalk, huh, huh, whoo sunny mornin', uh huh
Lies a body just oozin' life, eek
And someone's sneakin' 'round the corner
Could that someone be Mack the Knife?

There's a tugboat, huh, huh, down by the river don'tcha know
Where a cement bag just a'droopin' on down
Oh, that cement is just, it's there for the weight, dear
Five'll get ya ten old Macky's back in town
Now d'ja hear 'bout Louie Miller? He disappeared, babe
After drawin' out all his hard-earned cash
And now MacHeath spends just like a sailor
Could it be our boy's done somethin' rash?

Now Jenny Diver, ho, ho, yeah, Sukey Tawdry
Ooh, Miss Lotte Lenya and old Lucy Brown
Oh, the line forms on the right, babe
Now that Macky's back in town

I said Jenny Diver, whoa, Sukey Tawdry
Look out to Miss Lotte Lenya and old Lucy Brown
Yes, that line forms on the right, babe
Now that Macky's back in town.....

#############


Splish Splash, I was takin' a bath
Long about a saturday night, yeah
Rub-a-dub, just relaxin' in the tub
Thinkin' everything was alright

Well, I stepped out the tub, put my feet on the floor,
I wrapped the towel around me
And I opened the door, and then
Splish, Splash! I jumped back in the bath
Well how was I to know there was a party going on

They was a-splishin' and a-splashin',
Reelin' with the feelin', moving and a-groovin,
Rockin' and a-rollin', yeah!

Bing bang, I saw the whole gang
Dancing on my living room rug, yeah!
Flip flop, they was doing the bop
All the teens had the dancin bug

There was lollipop with-a Peggy Sue
Good Golly, Miss Molly was-a even there, too!
A-well-a, Splish Splash, I forgot about the bath
I went and put my dancin shoes on, yeah...

I was a rollin' and a strollin', reelin' with the feelin',
Movin and a groovin', splishin' and a splashin, yeah!

Yes, I was a-splishin' and a splashin'
I was a-rollin' and a-strollin'
Yeah, I was a-movin' and a-groovin'...woo!
We was a-reelin' with the feelin'..ha!
We was a-rollin' and a-strollin'
Movin with the groovin'
Splish splash, yeah!

I was a-splishin' and a splashin' one time
I was a-splishin' and a splashin'..woo-woo!
I was a-movin' and a-groovin'.....


*************

In the movie his character said he wrote the Splish Splash lyrics in 5 minutes

Pearl Jam

State of Love And Trust
alt. lyrics (by Eddie Vedder and HSC)


State of Love and Trust
as I'm forced to delve the pretense
Sin still blazes breeches
but to have an empty core

And the signs are passin,
grandpa still can't read 'em
Sacrifice The Secret
the smell get's on my hands...

And I listen
for the voice inside my head
Nothin',
I'll do this one myself

Lay her down as Priestess
show the Lord the account and
I will repay my honor
make it pain, painfully quick, uh huh

Promises are whispered
in the haze of darkness
I want to be enlightened
like I want to be told the end...

And the barrel shakes me
aimed directly at my head
Oh, won't you help me
help me from... myself

And I listen,
from both sides of my head
Nothin'
I'll do this one myself

Uh huh, huh, oh...
Myself...myself...
Yeah, yeah...
Hey, na, na, na, na,
hey, that's something
Hey, na, na, na, na,
hey, that's something
Hey, na, na, na, na,
hey, that's something
Want it back
back it away, yeah

And I listen
for the voice I'm told I have
Nothin'
I'll do this one myself

Oh, and the barrel waits
trigger shakes
aimed at my f*ckin' head
Won't you help me,
help me from... myself

State of love and trust, and a...
State of love and trust, and a...
State of love and...

actual lyrics


Oh...
State of love and trust as I busted down the pretext
Sin still plays and preaches, but to have an empty court, uh huh
And the signs are passin', grip the wheel, can't read it
Sacrifice receiving the smell that's on my hands...hands...yeah
And I listen for the voice inside my head
Nothin', I'll do this one myself
Lay her down as priest does, should the Lord be a countin'
Will be in my honour, make it pain, painfully quick, uh huh
Promises are whispered in the age of darkness
Want to be enlightened like I want to be told the end, end, yeah...
And the barrel shakes, aimed, a-directly at my head
Oh, help me, help me from myself
And I listen, for the voice inside my head
Nothin', I'll do this one myself
Uh huh, huh, oh...
Myself...myself...
Yeah, yeah...
Hey, na, na, na, na, hey, that's something (3x)
Wanna back, back it away, yeah, huh, uh
And I listen, oh, for the voice inside my head.
Nothin', I'll do this one myself
Oh, ah, and the barrel waits, trigger shakes, aimed right at my head
Won't you help me, help me from myself
Hmm...State of love and trust, and a...
State of love and trust, and a... (2x)
State of love and...yeah...

This is my favorite song of the day. Heard it at the gym earlier. (Some country music video station on t.v. #5... Sara Evans is the vocalist's name, sayeth Google)

Ooh yeah

I love the way you wear those worn out blue jeans
Walkin' all around in the big sunshine
Baby let me believe that you're perfect
At least for a little while

You don't have to tell me what you're thinkin'
You can keep all that to yourself
Baby we got such a good thing going
Don't show me that you're someone else

{Chorus}
Cause I'm acting as if
this blue sky's never gonna rain down on me
I'm telling myself
This true love's never gonna leave me lonely
Unless there's something I've missed
I'm acting as if

We don't have to have that conversation
Baby don't ya think it's goin' fine
We don't need to send out invitations
To tell the world that you're mine

{Chorus}
Cause I'm acting as if
this blue sky's never gonna rain down on me

I'm telling myself
This true love's never gonna leave me lonely
Unless there's something I've missed I'm acting as if

As if your sweet kiss is never gonna fade away
And the way you look at me will never change

Cause I love the way you wear those worn out blue jeans,
Walkin' all around in the big sunshine

Cause I'm acting as if
this blue sky's never gonna rain down on me
I'm telling myself
This true love's never gonna leave me lonely

I'm acting as if
this blue sky's never gonna rain down on me
I'm telling myself
This true love's never gonna leave me lonely

Unless there's something I've missed
Unless there's something I've missed
I'm acting as if

Oooh yeah

Oh I'm acting as if

Pearl Jam
"Corduroy"


The waiting drove me mad...
You're finally here and I'm a mess.
Take your entrance back -
Can't let you roam inside my head.

I don't want to take what you can't give
I would rather starve than eat your bread.
I would rather run but I can't walk
Guess I'll lie alone just like before.

I'll take the varmint's path
Oh and I must refuse your test
Push me and I will resist
This behavior's not unique.

I don't want to hear from those who know
They can buy, but can't put on my clothes.
I don't want to limp for them to walk
Never would have known of me before.
I don't want to be held in your debt.
I'll pay it off in blood, let I be wed
I'm already cut up and half dead
I'll end up alone like I began.

Everything has chains, absolutely nothing's changed.
Take my hand, not my picture, spilled my tincture.

I don't want to take what you can't give
I would rather starve than eat your bread
All the things that others want for me
Can't buy what I want because it's free
Can't buy what I want because it's free
Can't be what you want because I'm...

I ain't s'posed to be just fun
Oh, to live and die, let it be done.
I figure I'll be damned - all alone like I began...

Well, since we're in a Pearl Jam mood...


"Release"

I see the world
Feel the chill
Which way to go
Windowsill
I see the words
On a rocking horse of time
I see the birds in the rain

Oh dear dad
Can you see me now
I am myself
Like you somehow
I'll ride the wave
Where it takes me
I'll hold the pain
Release me

Oh dear dad
Can you see me now
I am myself
Like you somehow
I'll wait up in the dark
For you to speak to me
I'll open up
Release me
Release me
Release me
Release

"Love You To" (The Beatles)

Each day just goes so fast,
I turn around, it's past,
You don't get time to hang a sign on me.
Love me while you can,
Before I'm a dead old man.
A life-time is so short,
A new one can't be bought,
But what you've got means such a lot to me.
Make love all day long,
Make love singing songs.
Make love all day long,
Make love singing songs.
There's people standing round,
Who'll screw you in the ground,
They'll fill you in with their sins,
You'll see.
I'll make love to you,
If you want me to.

I tried to post the other day but I don't see it. It was even the second time I wrote the post and looked up two sets of lyrics because I turned the computer off to put some extra memory in when I hadn't finished it the first time so I know I did it... I must not have sent it again. Guess that post wasn't meant to be

And Now... Ladies and Gentlemen... Introducing the lyrics to my first full vocal performance on stage with my favorite live band....

ALLLLLL ABOOOOOOARD
AH HAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

(sweet music intro)
I
I
I
(more kick ass intro)

Crazy,
but that's how it goes
Millions of people living as foes
Maybe,
it's not too late
To learn how to love
And forget how to hate

Mental wounds not healing
Life's a bitter shame
I'm going off the rails on a crazy train
I'm going off the rails on a crazy train

I've listened to preachers
I've listened to fools
I've watched all the dropouts
Who make their own rules
One person conditioned to rule and control
The media sells it and you live the role

Mental wounds still screaming
Driving me insane
I’m going off the rails on a crazy train
I'm going off the rails on a crazy train

I know that things are going wrong for me

You gotta listen to my words
Yeah yeah yeah

<guitar solo>

Heirs of the Cold War,
that's what we've become
Inheriting troubles, I'm mentally numb!
Crazy, I just cannot bear
I'm living with something that just isn't fair!

Mental wounds not healing
Who and what’s to blame
I’m going off the rails on a crazy train
I'm going off the rails on a crazy train

"Recreating" - Sausage
(lyrics by Les Claypool)


I see things I don't believe in.
And I feel things I can't percieve.
Reality comes quite anew to me.
While I recreate with my mind.

Don't touch my hand. Or speak words to me.
Any conversation would eer-fer-tate.
Sanity, comes quite immune to me.
While I recreate with my mind.

You'll see things you don't believe in.
And you'll feel things you can't percieve.
Shut the doors and draw the blinds.
Sit back and create with your mind.

"Prelude to Fear" - Sausage


Possibilities; unaware, self-appointed bystandard of complete innocence.
Midday, aerobic jog, through streets not well lit by lamplight.
Prelude to Fear.

Perhaps; Picnic, setting of complete relaxation.
The sound, persists. The site, exists.
Disarray. Prelude to Fear.

But hey, fumble, growth of conscienceness.
Focusing, slow but steady, weirdness creeps.
Prelude to Fear.

Parallel, retrospective, deep sense of curiousity.

Retribution. React! Evaluate. React!
[Retribution. React! Evaluate. The Act! ?]

Caution. Prelude to Fear.

Physical sensation, the chill. The possiblity of mobility.
Abstract, sensation, waiting for the words.
This is only a test. This is only a test.

I feel weird today and I don't know why. I was walking through the house crying for no reason or lots of reasons or whatever. Darn moon is probably in Capricorn.

(quite unfortunately I have a dear friend this is mainfesting for....saddens me so...but I absolutely LOVE this song....)

DOGS

You gotta be crazy, you gotta have a real need
You gotta sleep on your toes, and when you're on the street
You gotta be able to pick out the easy meat with your eyes closed
And then moving in silently, down wind and out of sight
You gotta strike when the moment is right without thinking.
And after a while, you can work on points for style
Like the club tie, and the firm handshake
A certain look in the eye, and an easy smile
You have to be trusted by the people that you lie to
So that when they turn their backs on you
You'll get the chance to put the knife in.
You gotta keep one eye looking over your shoulder
You know it's going to get harder, and harder, and harder as you get older
And in the end you'll pack up, fly down south
Hide your head in the sand
Just another sad old man
All alone and dying of cancer.
And when you loose control, you'll reap the harvest that you've sown
And as the fear grows, the bad blood slows and turns to stone
And it's too late to loose the weight you used to need to throw around
So have a good drown, as you go down, alone
Dragged down by the stone.
I gotta admit that I'm a little bit confused
Sometimes it seems to me as if I'm just being used
Gotta stay awake, gotta try and shake off this creeping malaise
If I don't stand my own ground, how can I find my way out of this maze?
Deaf, dumb, and blind, you just keep on pretending
That everyone's expendable and no-one has a real friend
And it seems to you the thing to do would be to isolate the winner
And everythings done under the sun
And you believe at heart, everyone's a killer.
Who was born in a house full of pain
Who was trained not to spit in the fan
Who was told what to do by the man
Who was broken by trained personnel
Who was fitted with collar and chain
Who was given a pat on the back
Who was breaking away from the pack
Who was only a stranger at home
Who was ground down in the end
Who was found dead on the phone
Who was dragged down by the stone.

GIRL U WANT - Devo


Swings from somewhere you can't see
She sits in the top of the greenest tree
She sends out an aroma of undefined love
Drifts on down in a mist from above

She's just the girl,
She's just the girl,
The girl you want

She's just the girl,
She's just the girl,
The girl you want

You can hear her calling everywhere you turn
You know you're headed for the pleasure burn
The words get stuck on the tip of your tongue
She's the real thing but you knew it all along

She's just the girl,
She's just the girl,
The girl you want

She's just the girl,
She's just the girl,
The girl you want

Look at you, your mouth watering
Look at you your mind spinning
Why don't we just admit it's all over

She's just the girl,
She's just the girl,
The girl you want

She's just the girl,
She's just the girl,
The girl you want

She swings from somewhere you can't see
She sits in the top of the greenest tree
She sends out an aroma of undefined love
Drifts on down in a mist from above

She's just the girl,
She's just the girl,
The girl you want

She's just the girl,
She's just the girl,
The girl you want

She's just the girl,
She's just the girl -

I read this entire thread last night. It is a work of art. I was filled with gratitude to Randall for the collective journal and dated record of the past that LindaLand is for all of us. I was filled with love and gratitude to everyone for participating in this thread, and also the quote threads here in Wax. They really are beautiful.

I wish I could think of some lyrics worthy of the beauty I feel right now.

He called her on the road
From a lonely cold hotel room
Just to hear her say I love you one more time
But when he heard the sound
Of the kids laughing in the background
He had to wipe away a tear from his eye
A little voice came on the phone
Said "Daddy when you coming home"
He said the first thing that came to his mind

I'm already there
Take a look around
I'm the sunshine in your hair
I'm the shadow on the ground
I'm the whisper in the wind
I'm your imaginary friend
And I know I'm in your prayers
Oh I'm already there

She got back on the phone
Said I really miss you darling
Don't worry about the kids they'll be alright
Wish I was in your arms
Lying right there beside you
But I know that I'll be in your dreams tonight
And I'll gently kiss your lips
Touch you with my fingertips
So turn out the light and close your eyes

I'm already there
Don't make a sound
I'm the beat in your heart
I'm the moonlight shining down
I'm the whisper in the wind
And I'll be there 'till the end
Can you feel the love that we share
Oh I'm already there

We may be a thousand miles apart
But I'll be with you wherever you are

I'm already there
Take a look around
I'm the sunshine in your hair
I'm the shadow on the ground
I'm the whisper in the wind
And I'll be there 'till the end
Can you feel the love that we share
Oh I'm already there
Oh I'm already
There

The lyrics I originally posted are too lovely to fit my mood towards the people I am angry with.


Pantera - Walk Lyrics


Can't you see I'm easily bothered by persistence
One step from lashing out at you...
You want in to get under my skin
And call yourself a friend
I've got more friends like you
What do I do?

[Pre]
Is there no standard anymore?
What it takes, who I am, where I've been
Belong
You can't be something you're not
Be yourself, by yourself
Stay away from me
A lesson learned in life
Known from the dawn of time

[Chorus]
Respect, walk

Run your mouth when I'm not around
It's easy to achieve
You cry to weak friends that sympathize
Can you hear the violins playing you song?
Those same friends tell me your every word

[Pre]

[Chorus]

Are you talking to me?
No way punk


yah, I should do better and forgive yadda yadda

tomorrow
maybe

I always clean when I am annoyed. (It would be better if I got annoyed more often hehe) So, I always write parts of lyrics down when I am roaring down the highway at 55ish and then I throw the slips of paper wherever and then they turn up from time to time.
I liked this song... the help somebody if ya can part, and I wrote down the part about if you wanna make God laugh, tell him your plans. Did a search and here it is... by Van Zant.


Well, Grandaddy was a hillbilly scholar, blue collar of a man.
He came from the school where you didn't need nothin',
If you couldn't make it with your own two hands.
He was backwoods, backwards, used words like:
"No Sir," "Yes, Ma'am," "By God," "Be darned,"
"Hell yeah, I'm American."
In all the years he walked this earth,
I swear all he did was work.
He said: "The devil dreams on an idle horse,
"So you listen to me squirt.

"Don't get too high on the bottle,
And get right with the Man.
Fight your fights, find a grace,
And all the things that you can change,
And help somebody if you can."

Now Granny said: "Sonny, stick to your ganas,
If you believe in something, no matter what,
'Cause it's better to be hated for who you are,
Than be loved for who you're not."
She was five feet of concrete
New York born an' raised on a slick city street.
She'd cold-stare you down, stand her ground,
Still kickin' and screamin' at 93.
I remember just how frail she looked in that hospital bed:
Takin' her last few breaths of life, smilin' as she said:

"Don't get too high on the bottle,
Just a little sip ev'ry now and then.
Fight your fights, find a grace,
And all the things that you can change,
And help somebody if you can.
And get right with the Man."

Instrumental Break.
(C'mon now.)

"I never let a cowboy make the coffee."
Yeah, thats what Granny always said to my Grandad.
And he'd say: "Never tell a joke that ain't that funny more than once."
And "if you wanna hear God laugh, tell Him your plans."

"Don't get too high on the bottle,
Get right with the Man, son.
Fight your fights, find a grace,
And all the things that you can change,
And help somebody if you can.
And get right with the Man."

Yeah.

Ok, backtracked to the event and looked at things logically instead of emotionally. I hear this girl talk about everyone and what she is saying always seems to apply to herself so I don't worry too much about what she says... but I was upset again that "no one sees me."
But then, most don't see most... because most don't want to be seen. And I have been the same way. About 5 different people in a 24 hour period had me thinking that I was just going to put the armor back on, they didn't deserve the real me anyway. But there was one nice person today who enjoyed my true self/Self and I think I built from there. Actually, there were two, and more if you count online encounters. I just wasn't open to the full appreciation of them in my semi-rage earlier.


If I could be you and you could be me for just one hour
If we could find a way to get inside each other's minds
If you could see you, through my eyes, instead of your ego
I believe you'd be, surprised to see, that you'd been blind

Walk a mile in my shoes
Walk a mile in my shoes
And before you abuse
Criticize and accuse
Walk a mile in my shoes

Now the whole world you see around you is just a reflection
And the law of Karma, says you reap, just what you sow
So unless you've, lived a life of total perfection
You'd better be careful of every stone that you should throw

And yet we spend the day throwing stones at one another
'Cause I don't think or wear my hair the same way you do
Well I may be common people but i'm your brother
And when you strike out and try to hurt me it's a-hurtin you

There are people on reservations and out in the ghettos
And brother, there but for the grace of God go you and I
If I only, had the wings, of a little angel
Don't you know I'd fly, to the top of the mountain, and then I'd cry

Wreckless Eric
"Whole Wide World"


When I was a young boy
My mama said to me
There's only one girl in the world for you
And she probably lives in Tahiti

I'd go the whole wide world
I'd go the whole wide world
Just to find her

Or maybe she's in the Bahamas
Where the Carribean sea is blue
Weeping in a tropical moonlit night
Because nobody's told her 'bout you

I'd go the whole wide world
I'd go the whole wide world
Just to find her
I'd go the whole wide world
I'd go the whole wide world
To find out where they hide her

Why am I hanging around in the rain out here
Trying to pick up a girl
Why are my eyes filling up with these lonely tears
When there're girls all over the world

Is she lying on a tropical beach somewhere
Underneath the tropical sun
Pining away in a heatwave there
Hoping that I won't be long

I should be lying on that sun-soaked beach with her
Caressing her warm brown skin
And then in a year or maybe not quite
We'll be sharing the same next of kin

I'd go the whole wide world
I'd go the whole wide world
Just to find her
I'd go the whole wide world
I'd go the whole wide world
To find out where they hide her

movies today...

Why do I do, just as you say, why must I just, give you your way
Why do I sigh, why don't I try - to forget
It must have been, that something lovers call fate
Kept me saying: "I have to wait"
I saw them all, just couldn't fall - 'til we met
It had to be you, it had to be you
I wandered around, and finally found - the somebody who
Could make me be true, and could make me be blue
And even be glad, just to be sad - thinking of you
Some others I've seen, might never be mean
Might never be cross, or try to be boss, but they wouldn't do
For nobody else, gave me a thrill - with all your faults, I love you still
It had to be you, wonderful you, it had to be you

~Sinatra


Accepting all I've done and said
I want to stand and stare again
'Til there's nothing left out..
Oh, it remains there in your eyes
Whatever comes and goes
I will hear your silent call..

And I will touch this tender wall
'Til I know I'm home again..
Oh....
In your eyes, in your eyes..
In your eyes, in your eyes..
In your eyes, in your eyes..

love I get so lost, sometimes
days pass and this emptiness fills my heart
when I want to run away
I drive off in my car
but whichever way I go
I come back to the place you are

all my instincts, they return
and the grand facade, so soon will burn
without a noise, without my pride
I reach out from the inside

in your eyes
the light the heat
in your eyes
I am complete
in your eyes
I see the doorway to a thousand churches
in your eyes
the resolution of all the fruitless searches
in your eyes
I see the light and the heat
in your eyes
oh, I want to be that complete
I want to touch the light
the heat I see in your eyes

love, I don't like to see so much pain
so much wasted and this moment keeps slipping away
I get so tired of working so hard for our survival
I look to the time with you to keep me awake and alive

and all my instincts, they return
and the grand facade, so soon will burn
without a noise, without my pride
I reach out from the inside

in your eyes
the light the heat
in your eyes
I am complete
in your eyes
I see the doorway to a thousand churches
in your eyes
the resolution of all the fruitless searches
in your eyes
I see the light and the heat
in your eyes
oh, I want to be that complete
I want to touch the light,
the heat I see in your eyes
in your eyes in your eyes
in your eyes in your eyes
in your eyes in your eyes

Better
Regina Spektor

If I kiss you where it's sore
If I kiss you where it's sore
Will you feel better, better, better
Will you feel anything at all
Will you feel better, better, better
Will you feel anything at all

Born like sisters to this world
In a town where blood ties are only blood
If you never say your name out loud to anyone
They can never ever call you by it

If I kiss you where it's sore
If I kiss you where it's sore
Will you feel better, better, better
Will you feel anything at all
Will you feel better, better, better
Will you feel anything at all

You're getting sadder, getting sadder, getting sadder, getting sadder
And I don't understand, and I don't understand
But if I kiss you where it's sore
If I kiss you where it's sore
Will you feel better, better, better
Will you feel anything at all
Will you feel better, better, better
Will you feel anything at all
Anything at all
Will you feel anything at all
Anything at all
Will you feel anything at all
Anything at all...


Fidelity
Regina Spektor

(Shake it up)

I never loved nobody fully
Always one foot on the ground
And by protecting my heart truly
I got lost in the sounds
I hear in my mind
All these voices
I hear in my mind all these words
I hear in my mind all this music

And it breaks my heart
And it breaks my heart
And it breaks my heart
It breaks my heart

And suppose I never met you
Suppose we never fell in love
Suppose I never ever let you kiss me so sweet and so soft
Suppose I never ever saw you
Suppose we never ever called
Suppose I kept on singing love songs just to break my own fall
Just to break my fall
Just to break my fall
Break my fall
Break my fall

All my friends say that of course its gonna get better
Gonna get better
Better better better better
Better better better

I never love nobody fully
Always one foot on the ground
And by protecting by heart truly
I got lost
In the sounds
I hear in my mind
All these voices
I hear in my mind all these words
I hear in my mind
All this music
And it breaks my heart
It breaks my heart

I hear in my mind all of these voices
I hear in my mind all of these words
I hear in my mind all of this music

Breaks my
Heart
Breaks my heart

Human Thing
The Be Good Tanyas

(Frazey Ford)

Yer a human thing, Yer a human thing
Who yah think that you're foolin”, Who yah think that you're foolin”
Yer not foolin”, not foolin' me

Yer a human thing,Yer a human thing
Yer so busy frontin'
Confusin” courage and acting

Move me
Move me

Could it really be so wrong
To let somebody, somebody see.

Move me
Move me

A girl can keep it together
Come on now, you know we love your weather
Come on now, you know you we'll take the weather
You got roots cannot be torn from under
Won't you shake it like you've never done before
You've got roots cannot be torn from under
Won't you shake it like you've never done before
You're a human thing
