Comes the morning
When I can feel
That there's nothing
Left to be concealed

Moving on,
a scene surreal
Know my heart will never
Never be far from here

Sure as I am breathing
Sure as I'm sad
I'll keep this wisdom
In my flesh

I leave here believing
More than I had
And there's a reason I'll be
A reason I'll be back

As I walk
the Hemisphere
I got my wish
to up and disappear

I been wounded
I been healed
Now for landing I been
Landing I been cleared

Sure as I'm breathing*
Sure as I'm sad
I'll keep this wisdom
In my flesh

I leave here believing
More than I had
This Love has got
No Ceiling

Maybe so, but I not only remember it, I have it on my computer (though admittedly I don't listen to him all that often).

"She said, "I know you, and you cannot sing." I said, "That's nothing you should hear me play piano." - The Smiths, The Queen Is Dead

Stand up beside the fireplace
Take that look from off your face,
'Cos you ain't ever gonna burn my heart out
~ Oasis, Don't Look Back in Anger

Because God made me for his sins
Imagine my eyes when I first saw
We can do what we want

I said hallelujah to the sixteen loyal fans ~ Lo Fidelity All Stars, Battle Flag

The Everthere by Elbow

All my saints have taken bribes
Singing going going gone
All the angels taken dives
Leaving you the only one

If I lose a sequin here and there
More salt and pepper in my hair
Can I rely on you
When all the songs are through
To be for me the everthere?

Slide into another book
Now and then laugh out loud
Throw that very dirty look
which says, "OK.
Stop staring at me now."

If I lose the sequence here and there
Less derring do than quiet care
Can I rely on you
For a good talking to
To be for me the everthere? Everthere...

If I lose a sequin here and there
And take my time on every stair
Can I rely on you
When this whole thing is through
To be for my the everthere? Everthere...

Desperado, why don't you come to your senses?
You been out ridin' fences for so long now
Oh, you're a hard one
I know that you got your reasons
These things that are pleasin' you
Can hurt you somehow

Don you draw the queen of diamonds, boy
She'll beat you if she's able
You know the queen of hearts is always your best bet

Now it seems to me, some fine things
Have been laid upon your table
But you only want the ones that you cant get

Desperado, oh, you aint gettin' any younger
Your pain and your hunger, they're drivin you home
And freedom, oh freedom well, thats just some people talkin'
Your prison is walking through this world all alone

Don't your feet get cold in the winter time?
The sky won't snow and the sun won't shine
Its hard to tell the night time from the day
You're losin' all your highs and lows
Aint it funny how the feeling goes away?

Desperado, why don't you come to your senses?
Come down from your fences, open the gate
It may be rainin', but theres a rainbow above you
You better let somebody love you, before its too late

Used to be so easy
to give my heart away
But I've found out the hard way
there's a price you have to pay
I found that love
was no friend of mine
I should have known
time after time

So long, it was so long ago
but I've still got the blues for you

Used to be so easy
to fall in love again
But I've found out the hard way
it's a road that leads to pain
I've found out that love
was more than just a game
you play on to win
but you lose just the same

So long, it was so long ago
but I've still got the blues for you

so many years
since I've seen your face
but here in my heart
there's an empty space
where you used to be

So long, it was so long ago
but I've still got the blues for you
Though the days come and go
there's one thing I know
I've still got the blues for you

Dire Straights .. Romeo and Juliet

A lovestruck romeo sings a streetsus serenade
Laying everybody low with me a lovesong that he made
Finds a convenient street-light steps out of the shade
Says something like you and me babe how about it ?

Juliet says hey its romeo you nearly gimme a heart attack
He's underneath the window she's singing hey la my boyfriends back
You shouldn't come around here singing up at people like that
Anyway what you gonna do about it ?

Juliet the dice were loaded from the start
And I bet and you exploded in my heart
And I forget the movie song
When you wanna realise it was just that the time was wrong juliet ?

Come up on differents streets they both were streets of shame
Both dirty both mean yes and the dream was just the same
And I dreamed your dream for you and your dream is real
How can you look at me as if I was just another one of your deals ?

Where you can fall for chains of silver you can fall for chains of gold
You can fall for pretty strangers and the promises they hold
You promised me everything you promised me think and thin
Now you just says oh romeo yeah you know I used to have a scene with him

Juliet when we made love you used to cry
You said I love you like the stars above I'll love you till I die
There's a place for us you know the movie song
When you gonna realise it was just that the time was wrong juliet ?

I can't do the talk like they talk on tv
And I can't do a love song like the way its meant to be
I can't do everything but Id do anything for you
I can't do anything except be in love with you
And all I do is miss you and the way we used to be

All do is keep the beat and bad company
All I do is kiss you through the bars of a rhyme
Julie I'd do the stars with you any time

Juliet when we made love you used to cry
You said I love you like the stars above I'll love you till I die
Theres a place for us you know the movie song
When you gonna realise it was just that the time was wrong juliet ?

A lovestruck romeo sings a streetsus serenade
Laying everybody low with me a lovesong that he made
Finds a convenient street-light steps out of the shade
Says something like you and me babe how about it ?
