( edit .. artician nights can be of an odd nature .. timewise .. )no idea who wrote it .. Charlie Daniels sang it .. no idea which album It's my life God was the one to give it I aint going to let nobody Tell me how to live it It's my song .. right or wrong You can play along .. You can just stay .. behind The're my troubles Don't you let 'em worry you none 'Cause when i signed on to be a man I figured i was going to have some Like i say .. you wait .. go .. stay .. But you aint going to change .. my life .. Well i'm low down 'n lazy I'm ragged but i'm real I aint never been nobodys pride 'n joy 'Cause you can take the boy out of the country But it's hard to get all the country out of the boy The're my troubles I don't want you to let 'em worry you none When i signed on to be a man I knew i was going to have some Like i say .. go or stay .. Either way .. you aint going to change my life .. (bar room piano solo ) Well i'm low down and i'm lazy I'm ragged but i'm real .. And i aint never been nobody's pride 'n joy 'n you can take a boy out of the country But it's hell gettin all the country out of the boy It's my life God was the one to give it 'n aint no d*mn body goin' .. Tell me how to live it It's my song .. right or wrong You can tag along .. But you aint going to change my life .. Like i say .. go or stay .. Either way .. you aint going to change my life ..

anybody remember this? great song (I'll bet you'll remember HD ) Hypnotized Fleetwood Mac (Bob Welch) It's the same kind of story That seems to come down from long ago Two friends having coffee together When something flies by their window It might be out on that lawn Which is wide, at least half of a playing field Because there's no explaining what your imagination Can make you see and feel Seems like a dream (They) got me hypnotized Now it's not a meaningless question To ask if they've been and gone I remember a talk about North Carolina and a strange, strange pond You see the sides were like glass In the thick of a forest without a road And if any man's ever made that land Then I think it would've showed Seems like a dream (They) got me hypnotized They say there's a place down in Mexico Where a man can fly over mountains and hills And he don't need an airplane or some kind of engine And he never will Now you know it's a meaningless question To ask if those stories are right 'Cause what matters most if the feeling You get when you're hypnotized Seems like a dream (They) got me hypnotized

*Hypnotized *I'll bet you'll remember HD* uh huh .. but according to blogzeez website i'm only 30 .. or so .. i'm trying to look up some early F'Mac .. when they were a blues band ..Emmylou be my all time fav. lady singer her voice can get me all choked up .. "Icy Blue Heart" .. Emmylou Harris (john hiatt) She came on to him like a slow moving cold front His beer was warmer that the look in her eye She sat on the stool, and she said what do you want She said give me a love that don't freeze up inside He said, I have melted some hearts in my time dear But to sit next to you lord I shiver and shake And if I knew love, well I don't think I'd be here Askin' myself if I had what it takes To melt your icy blue heart Should I start to turn what's been frozen for years Into a river of tears These days we all play cool calm and collected Our lips could turn blue just shooting the breeze But under the frost, wee thought he detected A warm blush of red, and the touch of her knee He said you're a beauty like I've never witnessed And I've seen the northern lights dance in the air I've felt the cold that can follow the first kiss And there's not enough heat in the fires burning there To melt your icy blue heart Should I start to turn what's been frozen for years Into a river of tears To melt your icy blue heart

"You don't know me" .. Emmylou Harris (eddy arnold/cindy walker)You give your hand to me and then you say hello and I can hardly speak My heart is beating so And anyone could tell you think you know me well But you don't know me No you don't know the one who dreams of you at night And longs to kiss your lips and longs to hold you tight I'm just a friend that's all I've ever been But you don't know me For I never knew the art of making love Though my heart aches with love for you Afraid and shy I let my chance go by The chance that you might love me too For I never knew the art of making love Though my heart aches with love for you Afraid and shy I let my chance go by The chance that you might love me too You give your hand to me and then you say goodbye I watch you walk away and in my heart I cry

"Love is" .. Emmulou Harris(kate mccarrigle/anna mccarrigle/jane mccarrigle) Love is a shiny car Love is a steel guitar Love is a battle scar Love is a morning song Love is a twelve-bar blues Love is your blue suede shoes Love is a heart abused Love is a mind confused And love is the pleasures I'm told And for some love is still a band of gold My love has no reason, has no rhyme My love cross the double line Love is a mine of gold Love is a man to hold Love is a drowning soul Love is it's own reward And love is the pleasures I'm told And for some love is still a band of gold My love has no reason, has no rhyme My love cross the double line And love is the pleasures I'm told And for some love is still a band of gold My love has no reason, has no rhyme My love cross the double line Oh, my love cross the double line Oh, my love cross the double line

"A river for him" .. Emmylou HarrisI crossed on the river There'll be no returning I crossed all the bridges I watched them all burning And now I'm a stranger To a strange land I'm driven Where all is forgotten And nothing's forgiven But I cried a river A river for him That's deeper and wider Than I'll ever swim The heart it will harden The sorrow will dim But I cried a river A river for him I think of him now On the road I am taking And wonder how long His heart will be breaking But he'll never hear when The teardrops are falling Or the sound of my voice And the name I'm calling But I cried a river A river for him That's deeper and wider Than I'll ever swim The heart it will harden The sorrow will dim But I cried a river A river for him So sweep for the sons And the dear darling daughters For the passing of time And the parting of waters For all who have passed through This world long before me To a far distant shore line Where no one waits for me But I cried a river A river for him That's deeper and wider Than I'll ever swim The heart it will harden The sorrow will dim But I cried a river A river for him

"|If you were a bluebird" .. Emmylou Harris (butch hancock)If you were a bluebird you'd be a sad one I'd give you a true word But you've already had one If you were a bluebird, You'd be crying You'd be flying home If you were a raindrop, You'd shine like a rainbow And if you were a train stop, The conductor would sing low If you were a raindrop, You'd be falling You'd be calling home If you were a hotel Honey, you'd be a grand one But, if you hit a slow spell, Do you think you could stand one If you were a hotel, Well I'd lean on your doorbell I'd call you my home If I was a highway, I'd stretch alongside you I'd help you pass by ways That had dissatisfied you If I was a highway, Well I'd be stretchin' I'd be fetchin' you home IP: Logged |

http://www.univie.ac.at/Anglistik/easyrider/data/csnysnf.htm * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * TEACH YOUR CHILDREN ... by Graham Nash You who are on the road Must have a code that you can live by And so become yourself Because the past is just a good bye. Teach your children well, Their father's hell did slowly go by, And feed them on your dreams The one they picks, the one you'll know by. Don't you ever ask them why, if they told you, you will cry, So just look at them and sigh and know they love you. And you, of tender years, Can't know the fears that your elders grew by, And so please help them with your youth, They seek the truth before they can die. Teach your parents well, Their children's hell will slowly go by, And feed them on your dreams The one they picks, the one you'll know by. Don't you ever ask them why, if they told you, you will cry, So just look at them and sigh and know they love you. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * HELPLESS .. by Neil Young There is a town in north Ontario, With dream comfort memory to spare, And in my mind I still need a place to go, All my changes were there, Blue, blue windows behind the stars, Yellow moon on the rise, Big birds flying across the sky, Throwing shadows on our eyes. Helpless, helpless, helpless Baby can you hear me now? The chains are locked and tied across the door, Baby, sing with me somehow. Blue, blue windows behind the stars, Yellow moon on the rise, Big birds flying across the sky, Throwing shadows on our eyes. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * 4+20 .. by Stephen Stills 4+20 years ago I come into this life The song of a woman And a man who lived in strife He was tired of being poor And he wasn't into selling door to door And he worked like the devil to be more A different kind of poverty now upsets my soul Night after sleepless night I walk the floor and I want to know Why am I so alone? Where is my woman can I bring her home? Have I driven her away? Is she gone? Morning comes to sunrise And I'm driven to my bed I see that it is empty And there's devils in my head I embrace the many colored beast I grow weary of the torment Can there be no peace? And I find myself just wishing That my life would simply cease. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

hey HD! lets dance (but I've got to lead )happy birthday eric (march 30) Artist: Eric Clapton Song: Promises
I don't care if you never come home. I don't mind if you just Keep on rowin'away on a distant sea cuz I don't love you and you don't love me. You cause a commotion when you come to town You give 'em a smile and they meet Having lovers and friends is all good and fine But I don't like yours and you don't like mine. La la la ... I don't care what you do at night oh I don't care how you get your delights We'll leave it alone We'll just let it be I don't love you and you don't love me. I got a problem Can you relate? I got a woman Callin' love hate. We made a vow we'd always be friends. How could we know that promises end. La la la ... I tried to love you for years upon years But you refuse to take me for real It's time you saw what I want you to see That I'd still love you if you'd just love me. I got a problem Can you relate? I got a woman Callin' love hate. We made a vow we'd always be friends. How could we know that promises end. La la la ...

Re: page 1 "As the World Falls Down" by David Bowe posted by Zauberin. This is one of my all time favorite movies! I am listening to this CD Soundtrack in my car right now Re: page 4 "Reflection" by Tool posted by NeptunesLittleGem. It's nice to see them listed as they have some amazing lyrics! I shall post some more: Parabola by Tool We barely remember who or what came before this precious moment, We are Choosing to be here right now. Hold on, stay inside... This holy reality, this holy experience. Choosing to be here in... This body. This body holding me. Be my reminder here that I am not alone in This body, this body holding me, feeling eternal all this pain is an illusion. Alive This holy reality, in this holy experience. Choosing to be here in... This body. This body holding me. Be my reminder here that I am not alone in This body, this body holding me, feeling eternal all this pain is an illusion... Of what it means to be alive Swirling round with this familiar parable. Spinning, weaving round each new experience. Recognize this as a holy gift and celebrate this chance to be alive and breathing chance to be alive and breathing. This body holding me reminds me of my own mortality. Embrace this moment. Remember. we are eternal. all this pain is an illusion.

A couple for my little RamLion who just turned 10! Simple Man (Gary Rossington/Ronnie VanZant) Lynyrd Skynyrd Mama told me when I was young Come sit beside me, my only son And listen closely to what I say. And if you do this It will help you some sunny day. Take your time... don’t live too fast, Troubles will come and they will pass. Go find a woman and you’ll find love, And don’t forget son, There is someone up above. (chorus) And be a simple kind of man. Be something you love and understand. Be a simple kind of man. Won’t you do this for me son, If you can? Forget your lust for the rich man’s gold All that you need is in your soul, And you can do this if you try. All that I want for you my son, Is to be satisfied. (chorus) Boy, don’t you worry... you’ll find yourself. Follow you heart and nothing else. And you can do this if you try. All I want for you my son, Is to be satisfied. (chorus) The Only Child Jackson Browne
Boy of mine As your fortune comes to carry you down the line And you watch while the changes unfold And you sort among the stories you'll be told If some pieces of the picture are hard to find And the answers to your questions are hard to hold Take good care of your mother When you're making up your mind Should one thing or another take you from behind Though the world may make you hard and wild And determine how your life is styled When you've come to feel that you're the only child Take good care of your brother Let the disappointments pass Let the laughter fill your glass Let your illusions last until they shatter Whatever you might hope to find Among the thoughts that crowd your mind There won't be many that ever really matter But take good care of your mother And remember to be kind When the pain of another will serve you to remind That there are those who feel themselves exiled On whom the fortune never smiled And upon whose lives the heartache has been piled They're just looking for another Lonely child And when you've found another soul Who sees into your own Take good care of each other Take good care of each other When you’re thinking you’re alone Be aware of each other When you’re looking for something of your own Be there for each other IP: Logged |

RidgeTop Jesse Colin YoungWell I live on a ridgetop and Lord knows I like it just fine Where it’s windy and foggy and quiet most all the time My lawn is pine needles and my driveway is old funky dirt And my front pathway markers are pieces of granite and chert Now my taxes are high but I don’t believe it’s a sin, no I got hundred foot pine trees that just love to dance in the wind And a yard full of bushes that turn into pies in July Between blue jays and hoot owls I got a twenty four hour singing sky Now when I built my house I cut six trees to clear off the land But there’s thirty or more left and you know that they’re gonna stand It’s a squirrel sanctuary and they think this woods is their home And as long as I’m here I’ll make sure people leave us all alone Yes the hill that I live on is steep and the road is full of ruts And the people who live in the flatland think that we folk are nuts But the ruts in my road and the curve keep the tourists at bay And it’s lonesome and peaceful and you know I like it that way Now I work in the city and I think my job is a gas And I know it’s good for me to travel and get off my @ss But the very best parts of each trip are the Golden Gate Bridge And the road like a snake that will lead me back home to my ridge Tapestry Carole King
My life has been a tapestry of rich and royal hue An everlasting vision of the everchanging view A wondrous woven magic in bits of blue and gold A tapestry to feel and see, impossible to hold Once amid the soft silver sadness in the sky There came a man of fortune, a drifter passing by He wore a torn and tattered cloth around his leathered hide And a coat of many colors, yellow-green on either side He moved with some uncertainty, as if he didn't know Just what he was there for, or where he ought to go Once he reached for something golden hanging from a tree And his hand come down empty Soon within my tapestry along the rutted road He sat down on a river rock and turned into a toad It seemed that he had fallen into someone's wicked spell And I wept to see him suffer, though I didn't know him well As I watched in sorrow, there suddenly appeared A figure gray and ghostly beneath a flowing beard In times of deepest darkness, I've seen him dressed in black Now my tapestry's unraveling; he's come to take me back He's come to take me back Can’t Stop Worrying, Can’t Stop Loving Dave Mason
Who am I talking to? It’s just myself Talk to the wall When I talk to someone else Only a few That I’ve met really knew Why so many good things And so much abuse Can’t stop from worrying About the things to do I can’t stop loving Without it, nothing would seem true I’ve got my dream About the way it’s gonna be I’d share it all With someone real, not make-believe It sometimes gets hard To see the wood from the trees But when things are right Then no questions will I need Can’t stop from worrying About the things to do I can’t stop loving Without it, nothing would seem true The scenery’s changed But my feelings remain Laughter and pain And love are still the same Something worth having Doesn’t come too easily A man needs a challenge Or a man couldn’t be Can’t stop from worrying About the things to do I can’t stop loving Without it, nothing would seem true IP: Logged |

A Coral Room Kate Bush There's a city, draped in net Fisherman net And in the half light, in the half light It looks like every tower Is covered in webs Moving and glistening and rocking It's babies in rhythm As the spider of time is climbing Over the ruins There were hundreds of people living here Sails at the windows And the planes came crashing down And many a pilot drowned And the speed boats flying above Put your hand over the side of the boat What do you feel? My mother and her little brown jug It held her milk And now it holds our memories I can hear her singing 'Little brown jug don't I love thee�' 'Little brown jug don't I love thee�' Ho ho ho, hee hee hee I hear her laughing She is standing in the kitchen As we come in the back door See it fall See it fall Oh little spider climbing out of a broken jug And the pieces will lay there a while In a house draped in net In a room filled with coral Sails at the window Forests of masts Put your hand over the side of the boat Put your hand over the side of the boat What do you feel? ************************************ An Architect's Dream Kate Bush Watching the painter painting And all the time, the light is changing And he keeps painting That bit there, it was an accident But he's so pleased It's the best mistake, he could make And it's my favourite piece It's just great The flick of a wrist Twisting down to the hips So the lovers begin, with a kiss In a tryst It's just a smudge But what it becomes In his hands: Curving and sweeping Rising and reaching I could feel what he was feeling Lines like these have got to be An architect's dream It's always the same Whenever he works on a pavement It starts to rain And all the time The light is changing *************************************** Sunset Kate Bush Could be honeycomb In a sea of honey A sky of honey Whose shadow, long and low Is slipping out of wet clothes? And changes into The most beautiful Iridescent blue Who knows who wrote that song of Summer That blackbirds sing at dusk This is a song of colour Where sands sing in crimson, red and rust Then climb into bed and turn to dust Every sleepy light Must say goodbye To the day before it dies In a sea of honey A sky of honey Keep us close to your heart So if the skies turn dark We may live on in Comets and stars Who knows who wrote that song of Summer That blackbirds sing at dusk This is a song of colour Where sands sing in crimson, red and rust Then climb into bed and turn to dust Who knows who wrote that song of Summer That blackbirds sing at dusk this is a song of colour Where sands sing in crimson, red and rust Then climb into bed and turn to dust Oh sing of summer and a sunset And sing for us, so that we may remember The day writes the words right across the sky They go all the way up to the top of the night *************************************** Late Night, Maudlin Street Morrissey Winter coming Winter push on (push on) Oh, winter push on Winter is so long Winter moves on The last night on Maudlin Street Goodbye house, goodbye stairs I was born here And I was raised here, and ...I took some stick here Love at first sight It may sound trite But it's true, you know I could list the detail Of everything you ever wore or said Or how you stood the day As we spent the last night On Maudlin Street "Goodbye house, forever!" I never stole a happy hour Around here Where the world's ugliest boy Became what you see Here I am - the ugliest man Oh, the last night on Maudlin Street Truly I do love you Oh, truly I do love you When I sleep With that picture of you framed beside my bed Oh, it's childish and it's silly But I think it's you in my room, by the bed (...yes, I told you it was silly...) And I know I took strange pills But I never meant to hurt you Oh, truly I love you Came home late one night Everyone had gone to bed But, you know No-one stays up for you I had sixteen stitches All around my head Oh, the last bus I missed to Maudlin Street So he drove me home in the Van Complaining, "Women only like me for my mind..." Don't leave your torch behind A powercut ahead; 1972, you know And so we crept through the park No, I cannot steal a pair of jeans off a clothesline For you But you ... without clothes Oh, I could not keep a straight face Me - without clothes ? Well, a nation turns its back and gags... I'm packed I am moving house A half-life disappears today With "every hag waves me on" (secretly wishing me gone) Well, I will be soon Ooh, I will be soon I will be soon I will be soon Will be soon, I will be soon Mmm ... I will be soon, I will be soon There were bad times on Maudlin Street They took you away in a police car Inspector - don't you know ? Don't you care ? Don't you know - about Love ? Your gran died And your mother died On Maudlin Street In pain, and ashamed With never time to say those special things ... oh I took the key from Maudlin Street Well, it's only bricks and mortar ! Oh, oh, truly I love you Oh, wherever you are Wherever you are Wherever you are I hope you're singing now Oh, I do hope I hope you're singing now Oh ... **************************************** One U2 Is it getting better Or do you feel the same Will it make it easier on you Now you got someone to blame You say one love, one life When it's one need in the night It's one love We get to share it It leaves you baby If you don't care for it Did I disappoint you Or leave a bad taste in your mouth You act like you never had love And you want me to go without Well it's too late tonight To drag the past out into the light We're one but we're not the same We get to carry each other, carry each other One Have you come here for forgiveness Have you come to raise the dead Have you come here to play Jesus To the lepers in your head Did I ask too much More than a lot You gave me nothing Now it's all I got We're one but we're not the same We hurt each other, then we do it again You say love is a temple Love a higher law Love is a temple Love the higher law You ask me to enter but then you make me crawl And I can't be holding on to what you got When all you got is hurt One love, one blood, one life You got to do what you should One life with each other Sisters, brothers One life but we're not the same We get to carry each other, carry each other One One

Listening to some Dan Fogelberg today.....Part of the Plan I have these moments All steady and strong I'm feeling so holy and humble The next thing I know I'm all worried and weak And I feel myself Starting to crumble. The meanings get lost And the teachings get tossed And you don't know what you're Going to do next. You wait for the sun But it never quite comes Some kind of message comes Through to you. Some kind of message comes through. And it says to you... (Chorus) Love when you can Cry when you have to... Be who you must That's a part of the plan Await your arrival With simple survival And one day we'll all understand... I had a woman Who gave me her soul But I wasn't ready to Take it. Her heart was so fragile And heavy to hold And I was afraid I might Break it. Your conscience awakes And you see your mistakes And you wish someone Would buy your confessions. The days miss their mark And the night gets so dark And some kind of message Comes through to you Some kind of message Shoots through -- (Chorus) There is no Eden or Heavenly gates That you're gonna make it to One day But all of the answers you seek Can be found In the dreams that you dream On the way. Captured Angel Found your heart And lost your lover Lick your wounds And run for cover. Take your time There'll be another And don't make the same mistake twice Unless you can pay the price. All the years You spent in growing End up one more Line you're toeing Don't look now Your age is showing And its much too late To turn back You better pull in the slack. Captured Angel Aching to make your break Your freedom's at stake You better fly now... Fly now, fly now While your wings are still young Your cage door's been flung Wide open... And I'm hoping you see That there's a place beside me If you ever need it. Sold your dreams For sweet salvation Left with righteous indignation Now it seems that you face starvation And nourishment doesn't come cheap You better go back to sleep. Captured Angel Aching to make your break Your freedom's at stake You better fly now... Fly now, fly now While your wings are still young Your cage door's been flung Wide open... And I'm hoping you see That there's a place beside me If you ever need it. Magic Every Moment I awoke this morning to a shattering sound And I went downstairs and found these shards of glass strewn all around And there upon the floor I found this poor broken dove And it made me realize how very fragile is this life that we so love I came back up to bed and I held you so tight And I prayed up to the Father, oh I prayed with all my might That He'd always keep you with me, that He'd always keep you safe And when I went downstairs I found that dove had somehow up and flown away There's a magic every moment There's a miracles each day There's a magic every moment Oh won't you let the music play Oh won't you let the music play On a high and windy island I was gazing out to sea When a long forgotten feeling came and took control of me It was then the clouds burst open and the sun came pouring through When it hit those dancing waters in an instant all eternity I knew There's so much we take for granted, there's so much we never say We get caught up in the motion of just a living day to day We are fettered to the future, we are prisoners of the past And we never seem to notice 'til our lives have finally slipped right through our grasp There's a magic every moment There's a miracles each day There's a magic every moment Oh won't you let the music play Oh won't you let the music play You can see forever in a single drop of dew You can see that same forever if you look down deep inside of you There's a spark of the creator in every living thing He respects me when I work but He so loves me when I sing There's a magic every moment There's a miracles each day There's a magic every moment Oh won't you let the music play Oh won't you let the music play IP: Logged |

(not sure about the last bit ) "Wicked Games" .. Chris Isaak .. ( B minor / A / E ) The world was on fire No one could save me but you. Strange what desire will make foolish people do I never dreamed that I'd meet somebody like you And I never dreamed that I'd lose somebody like you No, I don't want to fall in love (This love is only gonna break your heart) No, I don't want to fall in love (This love is only gonna break your heart) With you With you What a wicked game you play To make me feel this way What a wicked thing to do To let me dream of you What a wicked thing to say You never felt this way What a wicked thing to do To make me dream of you And I don't wanna fall in love (This love is only gonna break your heart) And I don't want to fall in love (This love is only gonna break your heart) World was on fire No one could save me but you Strange what desire will make foolish people do I never dreamed that I'd love somebody like you I never dreamed that I'd lose somebody like you No I don't wanna fall in love (This love is only gonna break your heart) No I don't wanna fall in love (This love is only gonna break your heart) With you With you Nobody loves no one * * * * * * ** * * * * * * * "Lie To Me" .. Chris Isaak There is a woman, far over the sea. Standing and waiting, praying for me. Here I lie sleeping, a girl by my side. Who am I hurting, each time I lie. Lie to me, lie. Lie to me, lie. There is a woman, trying hard to be brave. The way that I hurt her, has made her afraid. Things that I'm doing, are breaking her heart. Still she's pretending, we'll never part. Lie to me, lie. Lie to me, lie. I don't care what people may say, I know everybody lies. I'm not trying to hurt my love, I'm only trying to get by. ( Guitar Solo ) There is a woman, far over the sea. Standing and waiting, praying for me. Here I lie guilty, a girl by my side. Who am I hurting, each time I lie. Lie to me, lie. Lie to me, lie. Lie to me, lie. Lie to me, Lie *********************************** "Blue Hotel" ... Chris Isaak Blue hotel on a lonely highway. Blue hotel life don't work out my way. Blue hotel on a lonely highway. Blue hotel life don't work out my way. I wait alone each lonely night. Blue hotel, blue hotel. Blue hotel every room is lonely. Blue hotel I was waiting only. The night and the life of her lonely dream. Blue hotel, blue hotel. ( Guitar Solo ) Blue hotel on a lonely highway. Blue hotel life don't work out my way. I wait alone each lonely night. Blue hotel, blue hotel. *********************************** above lyrics are from this link (seems to be one of the better ones) .. http://www.lyrics007.com IP: Logged | |
