Goodnight Lovers

Moonchild

Open your arms to the lonely shine
Lonesome as gold in a poor man's smile
See how the moon is full
Follow the push and pull
Follow the ebb and flow in the breathing tide
Come on moonchild, you're so far away tonight
The door is falling open and we're flying wild

Cat on the road, down in the living night
See how the black dog grins
In the diamond light
We're dreaming and we're real
We're broken and we're healed
Give in to what you feel over what you see

Come on moonchild, you're so far away tonight
The door is falling open and we're flying wild
Come on moon flower
You're so far away from now
You could bloom forever in the hour

And when if is only yes and no
And now becomes too soon
I know you'll be alright if you only
Come away to the moon
In the blue shine

Come on moonchild, you're so far away tonight
The door is falling open and we're flying wild
Come on moon flower
You're so far away from now
You could bloom forever in the hour

Peaceful Easy Feeling (The Eagles)

I like the way your sparkling earrings lay,
against your skin so brown
and I wanna sleep with you
in the desert tonight
with a billion stars all around
'cause I gotta peaceful easy feeling
and I know you won't let me down
'cause I'm already standing on the
ground

And I found out a long time ago
what a woman can do to your soul
Ah, but she can't take you anyway
You don't already know how to go
and I gotta peaceful, easy feeling
and I know you won't let me down
'cause I'm already standing on the ground

I get this feeling I may know you
as a lover and a friend
but this voice keeps whispering
in my other ear, tells me
I may never see you again
'cause I get a peaceful, easy feeling
and I know you won't let me down
'cause I'm already standing on the ground
'cause I'm already standing...
on the ground.

I Know You're Out There Somewhere (Moody Blues)

I know you're out there somewhere,
Somewhere, somewhere
I know I'll find you somehow
And somehow I'll return again to you.
The mist is lifting slowly,
I can see the way ahead
And I've left behind the empty streets
That once inspired my life
And the strength of the emotion
Is like thunder in the air
'Cos the promise that we made each other
Haunts me to the end.

I know you're out there somewhere,
Somewhere, somewhere
I know you're out there somewhere,
Somewhere you can hear my voice.
I know I'll find you somehow,
Somehow, somehow.
I know I'll find you somehow
And somehow I'll return again to you.

The secret of your beauty
And the mystery of your soul
I've been searching for in everyone I meet
And the times I've been mistaken
It's impossible to say
And the grass is growing
Underneath our feet.

I know you're out there somewhere,
Somewhere, somewhere
I know you're out there somewhere,
Somewhere you can hear my voice.
I know I'll find you somehow,
Somehow, somehow.
I know I'll find you somehow
And somehow I'll return again to you.

The words that I remember
From my childhood still are true
That there's none so blind
As those who will not see
And to those who lack the courage
And say it's dangerous to try
Well they just don't know
That love eternal will not be denied.

I know you're out there somewhere,
Somewhere, somewhere
I know you're out there somewhere,
Somewhere you can hear my voice.
I know I'll find you somehow,
Somehow, somehow.
I know I'll find you somehow
And somehow I'll return again to you.

Yes, I know it's going to happen,
I can feel you getting near
And soon we'll be returning
To the fountain of our youth
And, if you wake up wondering
In the darkness, I'll be there.
My arms will close around you
And protect you with the truth.

I know you're out there somewhere,
Somewhere, somewhere
I know you're out there somewhere,
Somewhere you can hear my voice.
I know I'll find you somehow,
Somehow, somehow.
I know I'll find you somehow
And somehow I'll return again to you.

Very Gooberz, huh?

We were talking about the song "Let It Be" and what it's meant to me recently.

Today after returning from the Dr. with some encouraging news, I turned on my car radio and guess what song had just begun playing?!? "Let It Be". Coincidence? No; serendipity!

Don't mind me...I'm just feeling some relief after 2 weeks of terror. We've got a ways to go before all is resolved, but we had a good beginning today and I'm feeling grateful and hopeful.

Thanks for listening.

The Song that Doesn't End

This/It is the song that doesn't end,
Yes it goes on and on, my friend
Some people started singing it not knowing what it was
They just kept on singing it forever just because...

(repeat until forever)

Seriously, this song is so catchy once you hear it you'll keep on singing it without noticing you've been repeating it for the umpteenth time.

Lol... got lotsa fave songs. Can't decide the best.

But, there is only one song that brought tears to my eyes the first time I heard it. Didn't really cry... but I really liked this one.

Wind Beneath My Wings

It must have been cold there in my shadow,
to never have sunlight on your face.
You were content to let me shine, that's your way.
You always walked a step behind.

So I was the one with all the glory,
while you were the one with all the strain.
A beautiful face without a name for so long.
A beautiful smile to hide the pain.

Did you ever know that you're my hero,
and everything I would like to be?
I can fly higher than an eagle,
for you are the wind beneath my wings.

It might have appeared to go unnoticed,
but I've got it all here in my heart.
I want you to know I know the truth, of course I know it.
I would be nothing without you.

Did you ever know that you're my hero?
You're everything I wish I could be.
I could fly higher than an eagle,
for you are the wind beneath my wings.

Did I ever tell you you're my hero?
You're everything, everything I wish I could be.
Oh, and I, I could fly higher than an eagle,
for you are the wind beneath my wings,
'cause you are the wind beneath my wings.

Oh, the wind beneath my wings.
You, you, you, you are the wind beneath my wings.
Fly, fly, fly away. You let me fly so high.
Oh, you, you, you, the wind beneath my wings.
Oh, you, you, you, the wind beneath my wings.

Fly, fly, fly high against the sky,
so high I almost touch the sky.
Thank you, thank you,
thank God for you, the wind beneath my wings.

All I know is what I've been sold
You can read my life like a fortune told
I've seen the dream, there's no land of Oz
But I got my brain and I got a heart
And courage built I won't let go
What we need right now is .... soul

I can't do this, you can't do that
They feed us lines but I won't act
And all good things will come to pass
But the truth is all you have to have
And would you lie for it?
(Do you) cry for it?
(Would you) die for it?
Would you

I believe, I believe
With every breath that I breathe
You and me can turn a whisper to a scream
I believe, I believe

You know what you came here for
You'll pay the cost,
like it's your cross to bear
Are we the ones that put it there
Would you scheme for it
scream for it, bleed for it
Would you

I belive, I believe
Believe we're still worth
The fight you'll see
There's no hope for this world tonight
I believe, I believe

Don't look up on your movie screens
In record stores or magazines
Close your eyes and you will see
That you are all you really need

I believe, I believe
With every breath that I breathe
You and me can turn a
whisper to a scream
I believe, I believe

Candlebox
Sometimes....
[b]
I wipe the night from my eyes
Block out the sunny day and I hide
Everythings fallin down around us
Im just missin the rain
Im happier now today
Dont let me down
Dont let me go
A change of seasons inside her mind
In time I'll decide
In tme I'll decide to move on
(chorus)
We change directions, we watch the tides
And we borrow too much
We form restrictions, we form lines
And we seperate you from me
Sometimes, sometimes we carry more weight than we owe
Oh but, sometimes,sometimes goes on

Night takes the light by the hand
Tunes out the boring day
And cries outloud
Everyones hangin on
Hangin on my words
It kills the thrill of being divine
But she's happier now today
Dont let her down
Dont let her go
There are no reasons
There are no lies
We just bleed together
Thats how we realize

We change directions
We watch the tides
And we borrow too much
We form restrictions we form lines
And we seperate you from me
Sometimes, Sometimes we carry more weight than we owe
Oh but, Sometimes, Sometimes goes on

Soemhow we'll find a way
We've got to paste it back together
These riped out pages of old coloring books
Where your Gold is Silver and my Blue is Grey
It's all held together by cellophane tape

In my head I've got everything I want in you !

He Ain't Heavy, He's My Brother

The road is long
With many a winding turn
That leads us to who knows where
Who knows where
But I'm strong
Strong enough to carry him
He ain't heavy, he's my brother

So on we go
His welfare is my concern
No burden is he to bear
We'll get there
For I know
He would not encumber me
He ain't heavy, he's my brother

If I'm laden at all
I'm laden with sadness
That everyone's heart
Isn't filled with the gladness
Of love for one another

It's a long, long road
From which there is no return
While we're on the way to there
Why not share
And the load
Doesn't weigh me down at all
He ain't heavy he's my brother

He's my brother
He ain't heavy, he's my brother

Shame On The Moon – Bob Seger

Until you’ve been beside a man
You don’t know what he wants
You don’t know if he cries at night
You don’t know if he don’t
When nothing comes easy
Old nightmares are real

Until you’ve been beside a man
You don’t know how he feels

Once inside a woman’s heart
A man must keep his head
Heaven opens up the door
Where angels fear to tread

Some men go crazy
Some men go slow
Some men go just where they want
Some men never go

Blame it on midnight
Shame on the moon

Everywhere it’s all around
Comfort in a crowd
Strangers faces all around
Laughing right out loud

Hey watch where you’re going
Step light on old toes
Cause until you’ve been beside a man
You don’t know who he knows

I Really Hope It's You
(Michael Franks)
Everyone know that the words of a love song,
Are seldom if ever true,
Now it's up Periscope and I really hope it's you.
It's Prince of the Cynics they call me, It's three hundred shades of blue,
It's multiple nope, but I really hope it's you.

I hope it's You
I hope it's You
I hope it's You
I hope it's You

Got no reason to recommend me
I'm way over twenty-two
Got a strange horoscope, but I really hope it's You

I hope it's You
I hope it's You
I hope it's You
I hope it's You

by Gossard, Vedder

How does he do it? How do they do it? Uncanny and immutable.
This is such a happening tailpipe of a party.
Like sugar, the guests are so refined.

A confidence man but why so beleagued?
He's not a leader he's a Texas leaguer.
Swinging for the fence. Got lucky with a strike.
Drilling for fear makes the job simple.
Born on third. Thinks he got a triple.

Blackout weaves its way through the cities.
Blackout weaves its way through the cities.
Blackout weaves its way.

I remember when you sang that song about today.
Now it's tomorrow and everything has changed.

A think tank of aloof multiplication.
A nicotine wish and a columbus decanter.
Retrenchment and hoggishness.
The aristocrat choir sings, "What's the ruckus?"
The haves have not a clue.
The immenseness of suffering.
And the odd negotiation. A rarity.
With onionskin plausibility of life.
And a keyboard reaffirmation.

Blackout weaves its way through the cities.
Blackout weaves its way through the cities.
Blackout weaves its way.

I remember when you sang that song about today.
Now it's tomorrow and everything has changed.

coming of age during the plague
of reagan and bush
watching capitalism gun down democracy
it had this funny effect on me
i guess

i am cancer
i am HIV
and i'm down at the blue jesus
blue cross hospital
just lookin' up from my pillow
feeling blessed

and the mighty multinationals
have monopolized the oxygen
so it's as easy as breathing
for us all to participate

yes they're buying and selling
off shares of air
and you know it's all around you
but it's hard to point and say "there"
so you just sit on your hands
and quietly contemplate

your next bold move
the next thing you're gonna need to prove
to yourself

what a waste of thumbs that are opposable
to make machines that are disposable
and sell them to seagulls flying in circles
around one big right wing

yes, the left wing was broken long ago
by the slingshot of cointelpro
and now it's so hard to have faith in
anything

especially your next bold move
or the next thing you're gonna need to prove
to yourself

you want to track each trickle
back to its source
and then scream up the faucet
'til your face is hoarse
cuz you're surrounded by a world's worth
of things you just can't excuse

but you've got the hard cough of a chain smoker
and you're at the arctic circle playing strip poker
and it's getting colder and colder
everytime you lose

And I'd give up forever to touch you
Cause I know that you feel me somehow
You're the closest thing to heaven that I'll ever be
And I don't want to go home right now
And all I can taste is this moment
And all I can breathe is your life
Cause sooner or later it's over
I just don't want to miss you tonight
And I don't want the world to see me
Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming
Or the moment of truth in your lies
When everything seems like the movies
Yeah you bleed just to know your alive
And I don't want the world to see me
Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
I don't want the world to see me
Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

There you were, standing alone in the night
Looking for someone to hold
To comfort the pain inside
You're not alone
And it's up to me to let you know
We were young
I could never let you go
Can't we give it one more try

Stay where you are
I'll be there to get you
Cause girl, I'm on my way back to you
Stay where you are
I don't wanna lose it
If there's a lesson to be learned, I've learned it
If there's a bridge to be burned, I'll burn it down
If there's a key to this heart, let's turn it around
Just stay where you are

Everytime I think of the dream we shared
The moments that touched my heart
We're still alive
And I know that we can make it right
One more time
I wanna take you in my arms
I've got to be with you tonight, so

Stay where you are
I'll be there to get you
Cause girl, I'm on my way back to you
Stay where you are
I don't wanna lose it
If there's a lesson to be learned, I've learned it
If there's a bridge to be burned, I'm gonna burn it down
If there's a key to this heart, let's turn it around

I want you to stay with me, yeah
If there's a lesson, I'm gonna learn it
If there's a bridge, I'm gonna burn it down
If there's a key, let's turn it around
Just stay where you are
I want you to stay where you are

All I knew
All I believed
Crumbling images
That no longer comfort me
Scramble to reach higher ground
Order and sanity
and something to comfort me
So I take what is mine, hold what is mine
suffocate what is mine, bury what's mine
Till the water will come and claim what is mine
I must leave it behind and climb to a new place now

This ground is not the rock I thought it to be

Thought I was high
Thought I was free
Thought I was there
Divine destiny...

I was wrong
This changes everything

Running away, running away
now I'm running away, running away
now I'm running away, running away...

I take what is mine, hold what is mine
suffocate what is mine, bury what's mine
Till the water will come and claim what is mine
I must leave it behind and climb to a new place

Water's rising over me, said the water's rising over me
thought the sun would come to deliver me
but the truth has come to punish me instead...

The ground is breaking down right under me
Cleanse and purge me in the water

(actually most Tool is at the top of my list for fav lyrics, but this is one of my top three)

Lovesong
The Cure

Whenever I'm alone with you
You make me feel like I am home again
Whenever I'm alone with you
You make me feel like I am whole again

Whenever I'm alone with you
You make me feel like I am young again
Whenever I'm alone with you
You make me feel like I am fun again

However far away
I will always love you
However long I stay
I will always love you
Whatever words I say
I will always love you

I will always love you

Whenever I'm alone with you
You make me feel like I am free again
Whenever I'm alone with you
You make me feel like I am clean again

However far away
I will always love you
However long I stay
I will always love you
Whatever words I say
I will always love you

I will always love you

You fly me to the moon
Whenever I'm alone with you

However far away
However long I stay
Whatever words I say
I will always love you

(simplistic maybe but one of my all-time fav songs)

Breathe
Pink Floyd

Breathe, breathe in the air
don't be afraid to care
Leave, but don't leave me
Look around, choose your own ground

For long you live and high you fly
Smiles you'll give and tears you'll cry
All you touch and all you see
Is all your life will ever be

Run, rabbit run
Dig that hole
Forget the sun
And when at last the work is done
Don't sit down it's time to dig another one

In Your Eyes (Live Mix)
Peter Gabriel

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
I will touch this tender wall
Til I know I'm home again
Ooh

In your eyes (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

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 (in your eyes) to a thousand churches
in your eyes
the resolution (in your eyes) 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

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 (in your eyes) to a thousand churches
in your eyes
the resolution (in your eyes) 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

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
Oh it's in your eyes

In your eyes
In your eyes
In your eyes

I want to stand and stare again
Oh, it's in your eyes.

Why

Why do the babies starve
When there's enough food to feed the world
Why when there're so many of us
Are there people still alone

Why are the missiles called peace keepers
When they're aimed to kill
Why is a woman still not safe
When she's in her home

Love is hate
War is peace
No is yes
And we're all free

But somebody's gonna have to answer
The time is coming soon

Amidst all these questions and contradictions
There're some who seek the truth

But somebody's gonna have to answer
The time is coming soon
When the blind remove their blinders
And the speechless speak the truth

bright lights flashing to cover up your lack of soul
many people,so many problems,so many reasons
to buy another round, drink it down
just another night on the town
with the big man,money man,better than the other man...................................

the disco balls spinning,all the music
andthe womwn,and the shots of tequila,
they'll say that need ya,
but all they really need is just a little room to breathe,
teeny bopping disco queen,she barely understands her dreams of belly rings and other kinds of things,
are symbolic of change but the thing that is strange, is that the changes occured and now shes just apart of the herd

lights out,shut down,late night, wet ground
you walk by look at him,
but he cant look at you, you might feel pity but he only feels the ground,
you understand moods,
but he only knows let downs
by the corner theres another one
reaching out a hand,coming from a broken man

you try to live but hes done trying
not dead, but definately dying
with the rest of the clowns...
