Favourite lines in a song

Christina Aguilera "You Lost Me"

[kittygrrl]

it's been said & done
every beautiful thought's been
already sung
And I guess right now
here's another one
so your melody
will play on & on...
you are beautiful
like a dream
come alive,
incredible
a centerfold miracle
lyrical

[Metro]

You see it all around you
Good lovin' gone bad
And usually it's too late when you
Realize what you had

And my mind goes back to a girl that I left
Long years ago who told me

Just hold on loosely
But don't let go
If you cling too tightly
You're gonna lose control

Your baby needs someone to believe in
And a whole lot of space to breathe in

:vigil: awesome guitar riffs, dudes...

[sara-bera]

...I can't breath when you're not around
Can't believe this perfect love that I've found
Thinking darling that your voice is the only sound
That can keep my feet so strongly to the ground...

[Julien]

Would you like the chance to shatter heaven?
Would you like to be the one who pulls the sky down just for me?
Round and round and round we run, and pretend the sun is all you need

[Julien]

I love when you tell me that I'm pretty
When I just wake up
And I love how you tease me when I'm moody
But it's never too much
I'm falling fast but the truth is I'm not scared at all
You're climbin' my walls

_Cv1nAw_D6o

[Talon]

I'm not a savior
I'm not a saint
I'm not an angel
I'm not that quaint
Don't need a preacher..
to be that wise
Don't need a teacher...I've got my eyes.

[tara_kerrie]

I ain't no angel
I still got a few more dances with the devil
I'm cleanin up my act, little by little
I'm getting there
I can finally stand the man in the mirror I see
I ain't as good as I'm gonna get
But I'm better than I used to be

[Talon]

Honest to God I will break your heart,
Tear you to peices and rip you apart.

[JAGG]

If I could walk on water
If I could tell you what's next
Come on get higher and loosen my lips
Faith and desire and the swing of your hips
Pull me down hard
And drown me in love

[Talon]

I search in the dark,
To find that key,
That triggers the spark,
You have burned within me.

[thedivahrrrself]

From Alice Smith's "Dream"

There was a time that I didn't have you around
Back in them days my heart never made a sound
Now it's beating like my head's in the clouds
Never doubt that I'ma always be down to hang around you

I need
To be
Everything you see in your dreams
It seems to me you'll never
Find another lover good as I
To give you all that you need......

[Talon]

I've got problems up to here,
I've got people in my ear,
Telling me these crazy things,
That I don't want to hear.

[BrownEyedAngel]

How dare you say that my behavior is unacceptable
So condescending unnecessarily critical
I have the tendency of getting very physical
So watch your step 'cause if I do you'll need a miracle

You drain me dry and make me wonder why I'm even here
This Double Vision I was seeing is finally clear
You want to stay but you know very well I want you gone
Not fit to fuckin' tread the ground that I'm walking on

When it gets cold outside and you got nobody to love
You'll understand what I mean when I say
There's no way we're gonna give up
And like a little girl cries in the face of a monster that lives in her dreams
Is there anyone out there 'cause it's getting harder and harder to breathe
Is there anyone out there 'cause it's getting harder and harder to breathe

What you are doing is screwing things up inside my head
You should know better you never listened to a word I said
Clutching your pillow and writhing in a naked sweat
Hoping somebody someday will do you like I did

When it gets cold outside and you got nobody to love
You'll understand what I mean when I say
There's no way we're gonna give up
And like a little girl cries in the face of a monster that lives in her dreams
Is there anyone out there 'cause it's getting harder and harder to breathe
Is there anyone out there 'cause it's getting harder and harder to breathe

Does it kill
Does it burn
Is it painful to learn
That it's me that has all the control
Does it thrill
Does it sting
When you feel what I bring
And you wish that you had me to hold


When it gets cold outside and you got nobody to love
You'll understand what I mean when I say
There's no way we're gonna give up
And like a little girl cries in the face of a monster that lives in her dreams
Is there anyone out there 'cause it's getting harder and harder to breathe
Is there anyone out there 'cause it's getting harder and harder to breathe
Is there anyone out there 'cause it's getting harder and harder to breathe

[yotlyolqualli]

Tell me does she want you...
infatuate and haunt you...
Does she know just how to shock you,
electrify and rock you?

Does she inject you, seduce you and affect you baby,
like the way I do? :cool:

[deedarino]

Nights in white satin never reaching the end
Letters I've written never meaning to send
Beauty I'd always missed with these eyes before
Just what the truth is I can't say any more
Cause I love you
Yes I love you
Oh how I love you
- - - Justin Hayward, "Nights In White Satin"

[JAGG]

Oh give it to me straight from the heart
You know I 'll never go as long as I know
Its coming straight from the heart.

[LaneyDoll]

Come feed the rain
cause I'm thirsty for your love
dancing underneath the skies of lust
yea, feed the rain
cause without your love my life
ain't nothing but this carnival of rust

[cinnamongrrl]

There's still time to change the road you're on.....

[DamonK]

Maybe that's what happens when a tornado meets a volcano
I love you too much to just walk away though

[Stud_puppy1991]

Instead of breaking up, I wish that we were making up again. I beg of you, don't say goodbye, can't we give our love another try?

[blush]

I wanna rock your gypsy soul

[PinkieLee]

Find what it means to be the girl
who changed her mind and changed the world...

[Stud_puppy1991]

And when you finally fly away, I'll be hoping that I served you well. For all the wisdom of a lifetime no one can ever tell. But whatever road you choose, I'm right behind you, win or lose.

[afixer]

I'm not the only soul who's accused of hit and run
Tire tracks all across your back
I can see you had your fun
But darling can't you see my signals turn from green to red
And with you I can see a traffic jam straight up ahead

[macele]

well there's something in the way she moves,
or looks my way or calls my name,
that seems to leave this troubled world behind.

-- james taylor
something in the way she moves

I dont want to miss a thing-Aerosmith

Don't wanna close my eyes, I don't wanna fall asleep
'Cause I'd miss you baby and I don't wanna miss a thing
'Cause even when I dream of you the sweetest dream would never do
I'd still miss you baby and I don't want to miss a thing

[Talon]

You are so beautiful to me, Can't you see?
You're everything I've hoped for, You're everything I need
You are so beautiful...to me.

I just read this article in the Atlantic about the musical collaboration of Richard Rodgers and Lorenz (Larry) Hart (then Rodgers went on to work with Oscar Hammerstein):

http://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2013/04/words-and-music/309249/


I think the most romantic lyrics I know of, are Hart's My Funny Valentine. The tender way he regards his lover's flaws, is so loving.



My funny valentine
Sweet comic valentine
You make me smile with my heart
Your looks are laughable
Unphotographable
Yet you're my favourite work of art

Is your figure less than greek
Is your mouth a little weak
When you open it to speak
Are you smart?

But don't change a hair for me
Not if you care for me
Stay little valentine stay
Each day is valentines day

Is your figure less than greek
Is your mouth a little weak
When you open it to speak
Are you smart?

But don't you change one hair for me
Not if you care for me
Stay little valentine stay
Each day is valentines day.

Miranda Lambert - This Aint My Mommas Broken Heart

My momma came from a softer generation....where you get a grip and bite ya lip just to save a lil face

[Glenn]

You thought the leaden winter, would bring you down forever,
But you rode upon a steamer, to the violence of the sun..
Her name was Aphrodite, and she rides a crimson shell
And you want to take her with you, for you've touched the distant sands,
And the tales of brave Uylesses how his naked ears were tortured,
by the sirens sweetly singing...
Cream

[VintageFemme]

Deep within, I'm shaken by the violence of existing for only you.
-Sarah McLachlan

[Blade]

Her/his lips are drippin honey but
She'll/he'll sting you like a bee

[Dude]

Settle down, it'll all be clear
Don't pay no mind to the demons
They fill you with fear
The trouble it might drag you down
If you get lost, you can always be found

____________________________________and

(Ho!) I've been trying to do it right

(Hey!) I've been living a lonely life

(Ho!) I've been sleeping here instead

(Hey!) I've been sleeping in my bed,

(Ho!) I've been sleeping in my bed

(Hey!)


(Ho!)


(Ho!) So show me family

(Hey!) All the blood that I will bleed

(Ho!) I dunno where I belong

(Hey!) I dunno where I went wrong

(Ho!) But I can write a song :writer:

(Hey!) :coffee:

[Anomaly]

Save a Horse, Ride a Cowboy

It's an older song than the club hit, local musician, kinda country or folk, this is the song that makes me wanna fall in love.

"Big boots and a home out on the range / Twelve kids, don't you think it's a little strange / To Wanna love these things?
Oh, Find me a cowboy who / Gets lost in the moment / Who gets weak when he cries for me / Gets weak when he cries for home / Home out on the range / Don't you think it's a little strange?"

There's a more useful song on that cd, too, called Drinking Again...

[cinnamongrrl]

There's still time to change the road you're on...

Led Zeppelin

[FeminineAllure]

Do you always trust your first initial feeling
Special knowledge holds truth bears believing
I turned around
And the water was closing all around
Like a glove
Like the love that had finally, finally found me
Then I knew
In the crystalline knowledge of you
Drove me thru the mountains
Thru the crystal-like clear water fountain
Drove me like a magnet
To the sea


How the faces of love have changed turning
The pages
And I have changed oh, but you...you remain
Ageless
I turned around
And the water was closing all around
Like a glove
Like the love that had finally, finally found me
Then I knew

[s0litude]

"If you get there before I do,
Don't give up on me.
I'll meet you when my chores are through.
I don't know how long I'll be.

But I'm not gonna let you down.
Darling, wait and see.
And between now and then
'Til I see you again,

I'll be loving you.
Love, Me"

[PinkieLee]

Some believe in destiny
some believe in fate
well I believe that happiness is something we create
you best believe that I'm not gonna wait....

[s0litude]

I was sitting here listening to the radio on the internet, and this song really resonated with me. I've heard it before, loved it when it was released, and still love it now. Who hasn't felt this way? Who hasn't (unfortunately) made someone feel this way?

Mark Wills - Don't Laugh At Me - YouTube


I'm a little boy with glasses
The one they call the geek
A little girl who never smiles
'Cause I've got braces on my teeth
And I know how it feels
To cry myself to sleep

I'm that kid on every playground
Who's always chosen last
A single teenage mother
Tryin' to overcome my past
You don't have to be my friend
But is it too much to ask

Don't laugh at me
Don't call me names
Don't get your pleasure from my pain
In God's eyes, we're all the same
Someday we'll all have perfect wings
Don't laugh at me

I'm the cripple on the corner
You've passed me on the street
And I wouldn't be out here beggin'
If I had enough to eat
And don't think I don't notice
That our eyes never meet

I lost my wife and little boy when
Someone crossed that yellow line
The day we laid them in the ground
Is the day I lost my mind
And right now I'm down to holdin'
This little cardboard sign, so

Don't laugh at me
Don't call me names
Don't get your pleasure from my pain
In God's eyes we're all the same
Someday we'll all have perfect wings
Don't laugh at me

I'm fat, I'm thin, I'm short, I'm tall
I'm deaf, I'm blind, hey, aren't we all

Don't laugh at me
Don't call me names
Don't get your pleasure from my pain
In God's eyes we're all the same
Someday we'll all have perfect wings
Don't laugh at me

[PinkieLee]

I'm gonna dance up on the table
singing "This Little Light of Mine"
God gave it to me, what good's it gonna do me
if I don't, by God, let it shine

[deathbypoem]

I know everything you don't want me to

[deathbypoem]

We stumble into our lives:
Reach for a hand to hold.
And any wonder
We need to find
A certain something, certain.

[PinkieLee]

All of these lines across my face
tell you the story of who I am
so many stories of where I've been
and how I got to where I am

[DaddyNik12]

Oh i feel it comin' back again
Like a rollin' thunder chasing the wind
Forces pullin' from the center of the earth again
I can feel it, i can feel it...♪

Stairway To Heaven

Song by Led Zeppelin



There's a lady who's sure all that glitters is gold
And she's buying a stairway to heaven.
When she gets there she knows, if the stores are all closed
With a word she can get what she came for.
Ooh, ooh, and she's buying a stairway to heaven.

There's a sign on the wall but she wants to be sure
'Cause you know sometimes words have two meanings.
In a tree by the brook, there's a songbird who sings,
Sometimes all of our thoughts are misgiven.

Ooh, it makes me wonder,
Ooh, it makes me wonder.

[Fancy]

"....and as I turned to make my way back home
the snow turned into rain."

~Same Old Lang Syne
Dan Fogelberg

[Cin]

Maybe there’s a God above
But all I’ve ever learned from love
Was how to shoot at someone who outdrew you
It’s not a cry you can hear at night
It’s not somebody who has seen the light
It’s a cold and it’s a broken Hallelujah.

Leonard Cohen

[Daniela]

Well, I've been afraid of changing
'Cause I've built my life around you
But time makes you bolder
Children get older I'm getting older too

Fleetwood Mac - Landslide

[Cin]

We swore to each other that our love would surely last.
You kept right on loving, I went on a fast,
now I am too thin and your love is too vast.

Leonard Cohen

[Daktari]

"You were always the mysterious one with dark eyes and careless hair, you were fashionably sensitive but too cool to care.
You stood in my doorway, with nothing to say, besides some comment about the weather."

This was a significant album and song for The Space Cadet and me back in the day....when we were young, gorgeous and somewhat foolish. :)

[CherryWine]

Moons and Junes and ferris wheels,
the dizzy dancing way that you feel
as every fairy tale comes real;
I've looked at love that way.
But now it's just another show.
You leave 'em laughing when you go
and if you care, don't let them know,
don't give yourself away.

Joni Mitchell

[bright_arrow]

Cause I'm alive and I'm on fire.
Shot like a starburst into the sky.
Oh the fury of desire you burn so bright, you electrify.
You light me up; you take me higher.

[Daktari]

I see a little silhouetto of a man
Scaramouch, scaramouch will you do the fandango
Thunderbolt and lightning - very very frightening me
Gallileo, Gallileo,
Gallileo, Gallileo,
Gallileo Figaro - magnifico

But I'm just a poor boy and nobody loves me
He's just a poor boy from a poor family
Spare him his life from this monstrosity
Easy come easy go - will you let me go
Bismillah! No - we will not let you go - let him go
Bismillah! We will not let you go - let him go
Bismillah! We will not let you go - let me go
Will not let you go - let me go (never)
Never let you go - let me go
Never let me go - ooo
No, no, no, no, no, no, no -
Oh mama mia, mama mia, mama mia let me go
Beelzebub has a devil put aside for me
for me
for me

[Daktari]

Now, if women like them like men like those why don't women like me?

[LeftWriteFemme]

Soundtrack: Good Will Hunting
Title: Angeles (Elliott Smith)

Someone's always coming around here trailin' some new kill
Says I seen a picture on a hundred dollar bill
What's a game of chance to you
Him is one
Of real skill
So glad to meet you Angeles
Picking up the ticket shows there's money to be made
Go on lose the gamble that's the history of the trade
Did you add up all the cards left to play
To zero
Sign up with evil Angeles

Don't start me tryin' now!
Uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh...
Cus I'm all over it, Angeles

I can make you satisfied in everything you do
All your secret wishes could right now be coming true
Be forever with my poison arms
Around you
No one's gonna fool a-round with us
No one's gonna fool a-round with us
So glad to meet you Angeles

[Daniela]

How do you think it feels
when you're speeding and lonely, come here baby
How do you think it feels
when all you can say is if only

If only I had a little
if only I had some change, come here baby
If only, if only, if only

How do you think it feels
and when do you think it stops

How do you think it feels
when you've been up for five days, come down here mama
Hunting around always, ooohhh
'cause you're afraid of sleeping

How do you think it feels
to feel like a wolf and foxy
How do you think it feels

To always make love by proxy, huh
how do you think it feels
And when do you think it stops
when do you think it stops

[Cin]

He scares easily
It makes him so angry at me
And his head spins around
Just like the exorcist and I
Find it ever so hard to resist his cries

But there's nothing more sadistic than an infant
Waving his pistol in my face
He wants me right down on my knees
Crumbling in disgrace

But he underestimates my mind
I know he's messing with my head
My only weakness is
I can't believe the guy could be entirely dead

OTR ~ Born

I was born to laugh
I learned to laugh through my tears
I was born to love
I'm gonna learn to love without fear

Pour me a glass of wine
Talk deep into the night
Who knows, what we'll find

Intuition, deja vu
The Holy Ghost haunting you
Whatever you got, I don't mind

I was born to laugh
I learned to laugh through my tears
I was born to love
I'm gonna learn to love without fear

Put your elbows on the table
I'll listen long as I am able
There's nowhere I'd rather be

Tori Amos ~ Your Ghost

You've left your ghost
Until tomorrow
And then he must be sent
To a strange address
In the Mediterranean

I've met your ghost
He has proposed
I've met your ghost, yes
He's proposed
He needs some time alone
Then he'll stay with me
Then he'll visit your seven seas

Jesse Ware ~ Night Light

Like a ghost I cannot see
You're the shadow behind me.
You'll be my night light, there when I go to sleep
You'll be my night light, baby when I dream.
Under the moonlight, shining on the sea

[gotoseagrl]

Daughter Darling ~ Mermaid

I live where you can't see me
Hiding away in the shadows of the deep
I swim into the bottom of your world
For every space I cross I see a thousand pearls

I breathe what I know you fear
All the sounds I love, you will never hear
I know what it is that turns beneath your feet
Floating on the surface of my enchanted sea

Close your eyes and take my hand
Hold your breath as long as you can
We'll leave behind the storms above
And swim into the seas of our love

Your skin is pale and not the shade of mine
Your eyes are darker than the blackest midnight tide
I can't resist from taking you with me
Becoming what it is that all young children dream

You have to leave as soon as you awake
You're eyes will open then this dreamy spell will break
Know when you leave that I'll be waiting here
Waiting for your sleep so I can re-appear

Hey Jealousy - Gin Blossoms

"If you don't expect to much from me, you might not be let down."

[JDeere]

Miranda Lambert's- Gravity is a bitch


It's been your 20s feeling that u're walking on the ceiling
and u party like u're 8 feet tall
U say work is for the birds
Chasing dreams and mini skirts
From here everything seem small

Then 30's come around and you finally feel the ground
Look around and maybe start planning
For what the future holds
And though you're far from old, your moisturizer's been less time tanning

You're hanging over, but you're hanging in
You're starting to look like all of your friends
Conversations turned up from rock n' roll
to kids and politics and how much money you owe

Got bags under your eyes, bigger hips and bigger thighs
You got places you can't even itch
You can nip it, tuck it, squeeze it
But you're never gonna beat it
'Cause gravity is a bitch

Forty's kinda boring
And you spend your time ignoring the things you don't see so clear
Your reflection in the glass is gonna knock you on you as*
You wonder how the hell to get down here

You're happy in your fifties
Though things are kinda shifty
At Sixty you find peace of mind
Go to bed at 8 o'clock and comb your hair if you still got it
'Cause you're almost at the finish line

You're hanging over, but you're hanging in
You're starting to look like all of your friends
Conversations turned up from rock n' roll
to kids and politics and how much money you owe

Got bags under your eyes, bigger hips and bigger thighs
You got places you can't even itch
You can nip it, tuck it, squeeze it
But you're never gonna beat it
'Cause gravity is a bitch

Yeah gravity is a bitch
I'm here to tell ya
Gravity is a bitch

[cinnamongrrl]

You've already won me over, in spite of me

And don't be alarmed if I fall head over feet

And don't be surprised if I love you, for all that you are

I couldn't help it; its all your fault...

"The less I seek my source for some definitive

Idealism sits in prison,
Chivalry fell on its sword,
Innocence died screaming, honey.

"I've always wanted for you what you've wanted for yourself
And yet I wanted to save us high water or Hell

When you feel my heat
Look into my eyes
It’s where my demons hide
It’s where my demons hide
Don’t get too close
It’s dark inside
It’s where my demons hide
It’s where my demons hide

[Cin]

I don't believe in destiny or the guiding hand of fate
I don't believe in forever, or love as a mystical state
I don't believe in the stars or the planets
or angels watching from above
But I believe there's a ghost of a chance
we can find someone to love
and make it last.

Ghost Of A Chance
Rush

[Kätzchen]

Met him on a Thursday, sunny afternoon
Cumulus clouds, 84 degrees
He was brown, deep
Said he wanted to talk about my mission
Listen to my past lives
Took me for a long walk,
Where butterflies rest easy

(Jill Scott)

[VintageFemme]

Deep within, I'm shaken by the violence
Of existing for only you

[-Red-Flag-]

If mine could be the name that changes yours,
The wine in your glass,
The swing on your porch,
The dollar in your pocket,
And the peaceful in your sleep,
Then I'd be what you mean to me.

[Daktari]

...With a long and slender body
And the sweetest softest hands
And we'll blow away forever soon
And go on to different lands
And please do not ever look for me
But with me you will stay
And you will hear yourself in song
Blowing by one day

Oh, hold me like a baby
That will not fall asleep
Curl me up inside you
And let me hear you through the heat



This song has been a significant song in my life.

[JDeere]

I cut my bangs with some rusty kitchen scissors
I screamed his name ‘til the neighbors called the cops
I numbed the pain at the expense of my liver
Don’t know what I did next, all I know I couldn’t stop

Word got around to the barflies and the baptists
My mama’s phone started ringin’ off the hook
I can hear her now sayin’ she ain’t gonna have it
Don’t matter how you feel, it only matters how you look

Go and fix your make up, girl, it’s just a break up
Run and hide your crazy and start actin’ like a lady
'Cause I raised you better, gotta keep it together
Even when you fall apart
But this ain’t my mama’s broken heart



Mama's Broken Heart by Miranda Lambert

[Vivacious1]

Take me into your loving arms

Kiss me under the light of a thousand stars

Place your head on my beating heart

[Daktari]

...Don't be offended by my frank analysis
Think of it as personality dialysis
Now that I've chosen to become a pal, a sister and adviser
There's nobody wiser
Not when it comes to popular
I know about popular
And with an assist from me
To be who you'll be
Instead of dreary who-you-were... or are...
There's nothing gonna stop you
From becoming populer—lar...
La la la la
We're gonna make you popular...

Don't mind me honey
I'm just looking
Smelt your chicken
And I watched you cooking

[VintageFemme]

Got my money where my mouth is
The sugar’s in the cane
If I had a million dollars
I’d blow it on champagne
A million bucks champagne yeah
It wouldn’t touch the sides
No-one’s gonna put a foot wrong
It’s one of those nights

Love is never gone away
It’s gonna come around some day

[Bard]

How many times do I have to tell you
Even when you're crying you're beautiful too
The world is beating you down, I'm around through every mood
You're my downfall, you're my muse
My worst distraction, my rhythm and blues
I can't stop singing, it's ringing, in my head for you

My head's under water
But I'm breathing fine
You're crazy and I'm out of my mind

Oh Wonder (Body Gold)

[GeorgiaMa'am]

Watch out now, take care,
Beware of thoughts that linger
Winding up inside your head,
The hopelessness around you
In the dead of night:

Beware of sadness.

It can hit you,
It can hurt you,
Make you sore, and what is more
That is not what you are here for.

[JDeere]

I've seen a newborn child
Puts stars in her mama's eyes
And i pray to the man in the moon
I got drunk with the highway men
Felt the burn of the desert wind
Seen some promising I-dos
Ain't no moment like when I'm holding on to you
Ain't no moment like when I'm holding on to you


Miranda Lambert- holding on to you

[kittygrrl]

You make it look like it’s magic
Cause I see nobody, nobody but you, you, you
I'm never confused
Hey, hey

I'm so used to being used
So I love when you call unexpected
Cause I hate when the moment's expected
So I'ma care for you, you, you
I'ma care for you, you, you, you, yeah
Cause girl you're perfect
You're always worth it

[Janstevie]

There's no one line i like best, so i put them all.
"The impossible dream"

To dream the impossible dream
To fight the unbeatable foe
To bear with unbearable sorrow
To run where the brave dare not go



To right the unrightable wrong
To love pure and chaste from afar
To try when your arms are too weary
To reach the unreachable star



This is my quest, to follow that star,
No matter how hopeless, no matter how far
To fight for the right without question or cause
To be willing to march into hell for a heavenly cause



And I know if I'll only be true to this glorious quest
That my heart will lie peaceful and calm when I'm laid to my rest



And the world will be better for this
That one man scorned and covered with scars
Still strove with his last ounce of courage
To fight the unbeatable foe, to reach the
unreachable star.

[Kätzchen]

But there's something you should know
You'd better look before you leap
Still waters run deep

[cinnamongrrl]

Where ever is your heart, I call home..

[Bard]

All my underdogs,
We will never be never be, anything but loud
Maybe gritty dirty little freaks
Won't you come on and come on and raise your glass,
Just come on and come on and raise your glass
Won't you come on and come on and raise your glass (for me)
Just come on and come on and raise your glass (for me

[GeorgiaMa'am]

Change your heart.
It will astound you.

[Cin]

I tried to pick my favorite lines in this song but I discovered I like a lot of the lyrics.

"The Future"
Leonard Cohen

Give me back my broken night
my mirrored room, my secret life
it's lonely here,
there's no one left to torture
Give me absolute control
over every living soul
And lie beside me, baby,
that's an order!
Give me crack and anal sex
Take the only tree that's left
and stuff it up the hole
in your culture
Give me back the Berlin wall
give me Stalin and St Paul
I've seen the future, brother:
it is murder.

Things are going to slide, slide in all directions
Won't be nothing
Nothing you can measure anymore
The blizzard, the blizzard of the world
has crossed the threshold
and it has overturned
the order of the soul
When they said REPENT REPENT
I wonder what they meant

You don't know me from the wind
you never will, you never did
I'm the little jew
who wrote the Bible
I've seen the nations rise and fall
I've heard their stories, heard them all
but love's the only engine of survival
Your servant here, he has been told
to say it clear, to say it cold:
It's over, it ain't going
any further
And now the wheels of heaven stop
you feel the devil's riding crop
Get ready for the future:
it is murder

Things are going to slide ...

There'll be the breaking of the ancient
western code
Your private life will suddenly explode
There'll be phantoms
There'll be fires on the road
and the white man dancing
You'll see a woman
hanging upside down
her features covered by her fallen gown
and all the lousy little poets
coming round
tryin' to sound like Charlie Manson
and the white man dancin'

[Vivacious1]

Can I lay by your side, next to you, you
And make sure you're alright
I'll take care of you

I'm going to let myself sink right down into the safety of your voice
We're laying in the half dark, and you're holding my face
Saying we're more than alright

Melissa Ferrick "Careful"

[Toska]

You've got to shake your fists at lightning now, you've got to roar like forest fire
You've got to spread your light like blazes all across the sky
They're going to aim the hoses on you, show 'em you won't expire
Not till you burn up every passion, not even when you die

I could tell you about my life

And keep you amused I'm sure,

About all the times I've cried

And how I don't want to be sad anymore,

And how I wish I was in love.

[meridiantoo]

"Pulling out the papers from drawers that slide smooth
Tugging at the darkness, word upon word"

[NoahVox]

She is like a cat in the dark
And then she is the darkness
She rules her life like a fine skylark
And when the sky is starless

Fleetwood Mac - Rhiannon

[not2shygrrl]

Now that I've tried to talk to you and make you understand
All you have to do is close your eyes
And just reach out your hands and touch me
Hold me close don't ever let me go
More than words is all I ever needed you to show
Then you wouldn't have to say that you love me
Cause I'd already know

[not2shygrrl]

Didn't anybody ever tell you that you´re made of stars?
Didn't anybody ever tell you how wonderful you are?
Didn't anybody ever look into your eyes and see the whole world
spinnin' around, spinnin' around?

Strange days we´re living in.
Sometimes it seem the signal´s getting low
Keep picking up waves of love on your human radio

Wild angel, don´t you think it´s time now?
Wild angel, don´t you think it´s time now?
Don't you think it's time now to love yourself?

Wild angel, don´t you think it´s time now?
Wild angel, don´t you think it´s time now?
Don't you think it's time now to love yourself?

Didn't anybody ever tell you that you´re made of space?
Didn't anybody ever tell you that you´re filled with grace?
Didn't anybody ever "sing" in your ear the sweet sounding song
of yourself, song of yourself?

[deathbypoem]

I'll take your place when the world ends
And you take mine
I'll break us out of this
Jail and get you high
'Cause when it all ends,
I want you to be free
Free like you make me

[deathbypoem]

Down here we’re careless and we’re primal
Where I learned to be a light at dusk

[deathbypoem]

Even if it was a mistake, I can't forget your face
Even if it was just a day, you won't forget the man
Who's making you shake

[VintageFemme]

We might kiss when we are alone
When nobody's watching
We might take it home
We might make out when nobody's there
It's not that we're scared
It's just that it's delicate

[Stone-Butch]

I tell it like it use to be
when you were still in love with me
Before you got too use to me and
wanted someone new

I tell it how it aught to be
cause how it is , is killing me
When they ask about you and me
I tell it like it use to be

[Stone-Butch]

Watch how he holds her
As they dance to the last
cheaters waltz

[Stone-Butch]

I'd rather be a hammer than a nail, if I could

[Stone-Butch]

Do you still get a thrill when you see me comin' down the hill
Now honey ah do ya?
Do you whisper my name just to bring a little comfort to ya
Now do ya'
Do you still like the feel of my body lying next to oo ya
Well I guess what I'm askin' is do you still love me do ya.

[newdaynow]

I would never startle the fawn
With my eager affection
Overstay my welcome
Die for attention
But my heart might

I would never spill a drop
Or dance with two left feet
And I would never lose my temper
Or forfeit a good night's sleep
No, but my heart might

With all of my might
I am trying not to love you
But with all of my might I already do
I'm keeping my hands in my pockets
And my heart off my sleeve
Because when you love with the numbers
The words sound so weak

I would never gawk
At the grace of your hands
As they push your point across
Or kiss your neck midconversation
I would never be so obvious
No, but my heart might
My heart might

And I would never be demanding
Or at a loss for words
And I would never drive unsafely
Or make any wrong turns
No, but my heart might
My heart might

With all of my might
I am trying not to love you
But with all of my might I already do
I'm keeping my hands in my pockets
And my heart off my sleeve
Because when you love with the numbers
The words sound so weak

I would never startle the fawn
With my eager affection
Overstay my welcome
Die for attention
But my heart might
My heart might


(I wanted to post of video of this song, but I searched a while and could not find even one - very disappointed :( - So I guess I'll just put the lyrics here)

[VintageFemme]

you live in a church
where you sleep with voodoo dolls
and you won't give up the search
for the ghosts in the halls
you wear sandals in the snow
and a smile that won't wash away
can you look out the window
without your shadow getting in the way
oh you're so beautiful
with an edge and a charm
but so careful
when I'm in your arms

[Vincent]

If You Ever Leave Me Baby
Leave Some Morphine At My Door
Cause It Will Take A Whole Lot Of Medication
To Realize What We Used To Have
We Don't, Have It Any More.

There's No Religion That Can Save Me
No Matter How Long, My Knees Are On The Floor
So Keep In Mind All The Sacrifices I'm Making
To Keep You By My Side
To Keep You From Walking Out The Door.

[Tuff Stuff]

You Can't Always Get What You Want-George Michael


It's not as though we just broke up
It's not as though it was yesterday
But something I just can't explain
Something in me needs this pain
I know I'll never see your face again

[job]

I don't mind the rain sometimes, the images it shows.
I can taste you on my lips and smell you in my clothes.
Cinnamon and sugary, and softly spoken lies.
You never know just how you look through other people's eyes.

"I Believe In You And Me"

I Believe In You and Me
I Believe That we will be
In love eternally
Well as far as I can see
You Will Always be the one
For me (Oh yes, you will)

And I believe in dreams again
I believe that love will never end
And like the river finds the sea
I was lost, now I'm free
Cuz I believe In you and me

I will never leave your side
I will never hurt your pride
When all the chips are down, baby
Then I will always be around
Just to be right where you are
My love, you know I love you, boi

I will never leave you out
I will always let you in, boi (mmm, oh baby)
To places no-one's ever been,
Deep inside, can't you see?
That I believe in you and me

Maybe I'm a fool
To feel the way I do
I will play the fool forever
Just to be with you forever

I believe in miracles
And love is the miracle
And yes, baby you're my dream come true
I was lost, now I'm free,
Oh, baby cuz i believe, i do believe, in you and me
See, I was lost, now I'm free
Cuz I believe in you and me.

Stressed Out - Twenty One Pilots

Wish we could turn back time, to the good old days,
When our momma sang us to sleep but now we're stressed out.

We used to play pretend, give each other different names,
We would build a rocket ship and then we'd fly it far away,
Used to dream of outer space but now they're laughing at our face,
Saying, "Wake up, you need to make money."
Yo.

[deathbypoem]

Sea Wolf "Old Friend"

Oh, how we used to run up in the park
Cool air, and eucalyptus leaves
Oh, how we’d look out
Out over the bay
Must’ve fallow through the gate
Couldn’t wait to get away



Daughter "Run"

So we lay in the dark,
We've got nothing to say.
Just the beating of hearts,
Like two drums in the grey.
I don't know what we're doing,
I don't know what we've done.
But the fire is coming,
So I think we should run.

Just a boy and a girl in a little canoe
With the moon shining all around
As he glides his paddle
You couldn't even hear a sound

And they talked and they talked
Till the moon grew dim
He said you better kiss me
Or get out and swim

So what you gonna do in a little canoe
With the moon shinin' all a--
Boats floatin all a--
Girl swimmin' all a rou-ou-ound!

Alone and desperate on a prison phone.
They want to give her seven years

Don't be sad and don't explain
This is where we start again

you're a different different kind of fun and i'm so used to feeling numb
now i got pins and needles on my tong anticipating is what to come like a finger in a loaded gun
i can feel it risin' temperature inside me haven't feel it for a long time

[Kätzchen]

I love the entire set if lyrics to this country-western song.... probably more so than any other song like it. I like it because it's real....


2g0f3_Gke84

My favorite verse of this song is verse two (2):

I could sing you a tune and promise you the moon,
but if that's what it takes to hold you,
I just as soon let you go...
But there's one thing I want you to know,
You better look before you leap, still waters run deep,
There won't always be someone there to pull you out,
And you know what I'm talking about!
So smile for awhile and let's be jolly,
Love shouldn't be so melancholy,
Come along and share the good times,
While we can.....

[cathexis]

Just a little pin prick...ahhh...there will be no more pain. I have become comfortably numb.

Wildfire (Michael Martin Murphey)

She comes down from Yellow Mountain
On a dark, flat land she rides
On a pony she named Wildfire
With a whirl wind by her side...
On a cold Nebraska night.

Oh, they say she died one winter
When there came a killing frost
And the pony named Wildfire
Busted down his stall....
In a blizzard he was lost.

chorus:

She ran calling Wildfire,
She ran calling Wildfire,
She ran calling Wildfire.


By the dark of the moon I planted
But there came an early snow
There's been an owl hooting by my window now
For six nights in a row
She's coming for me, I know
And on Wildfire, we're both gonna go.

Repeat chorus (x2).

And just when I was thinking
We'd come about as far
As this old road could take us
Time to pull on over baby
Yeah just stop the car

[VintageFemme]

Then when the cops closed the fair
I cut my long baby hair
Stole me a dog eared map
And called for you everywhere

[Vincent]

And the sign said, "The words of the prophets
Are written on the subway walls
And tenement halls

There's a river on my skin
There's a dragon in the dark
Nothing scares me more
Than the silence of your heart

[Vincent]

Well lately, don't understand what I am
Treated as a fool
Not quite a woman or a man
Well I don't know
I guess I don't understand the plan
Colonized, and hypnotized, be something
Sterilized, dehumanized, be something
Well take your pay
And stay out the way, be something
Ah, do your best
But fuck the rest, be something
Well lately, it's been mighty hard to see
Just searching for my lost humanity
I look for you, my friend
But do you look for me?

[VintageFemme]

And on the Lower East Side you're dancing with me now
And I'm taking pictures of you with flowers on the wall
Think I like you best when you're dressed in black from head to toe
Think I like you best when you're just with me
And no one else

[Vincent]

I have to say I'm enjoyong this thread and all the lyrics and new songs

I'm trying my hand at writing

And must admit,i'm terrible

As a singer I have always delved into lyrics

I think songwriters are underated

It's easy to write crappy ones though LOL,I seem to excell at that

So thanks and lets keep the lyrics coming in

If you happen to be good at lyrics,be interested to hear some

cheers music lovers

[AlexF]

You and VintageFemme have great taste in music and lyric selection. Really enjoying this thread as well.

Have not had enough time to write lately or abuse my violin, work has been consuming all my time. Hopefully when things slow down will share some lyrics.

Cheers!

Hey Alex,if you ever get time
and drag out your violin I would love to have an online jam
I read a how to write songs,it said pick out 20 of your fav songs,and write all the lyrics out,then sort out why they move you,then blah blah

I'm retired and disabled now so I have too much time,so I may as well try something useful.

I play intermediate guitar and piano is a bit sketchy now,coz I can no longer sit at it.
Although Ive only been playing instruments for 5 yrs.
I'm a singer and have been in bands over here since I was 19,and now I'm into recording,just too keep playing music

my souncloud and youtube link is on my online jamming post,if you wanna check it out.I always feel a bit weird about posting that stuff.

Yes really dig Vintage Femmes music a lot,and her selection of lyrics are really interesting.Hi Vintage Femme LOL,you have great taste in music,Rebel Dyke does as well,but she is not around for some reason.

cheers all

Well theres a young man running and he don't know why
He just knows he's been born a bulls eye.
Well they say he died coz he wore a hood
Well I guess he can't do it
but the Klu Klux could

[VintageFemme]

I took a moment from my day
And wrapped it up in things you say
And mailed it off to your address
You'll get it pretty soon unless

The packaging begins to break
And all the points I tried to make
Are tossed with thoughts into a bin
And time leaks out my life leaks in

I've been wading in the velvet sea

[Vincent]

It's bad timing and me
We find a lot of things out this way
And there's you
A little black cloud in a dress
The temptation
To take the precious things we have apart
To see how they work
Must be resisted for they never fit together again
If this is rain let it fall on me and drown me
If these are tears let them fall
Must I paint you a picture
About the way that I feel?

How will you know if you've found me at last?
'Cause I'll be the one be the one be the one
With my heart in my lap

[Bèsame*]

I was told by a good friend
you were untouchable, out of my reach.
But the first time ever I saw you,
I spilled my cherry lime over your dress.
You said, "Don't you worry, it's not my best one."
First encounter, hardly the best.

But I would not change a thing
if I could do it all over again.
All I'm tryin' to say in my awkward way is,
"I still love you."

[AlexF]

Still a little bit of your taste in my mouth
Still a little bit of you laced with my doubt
Still a little hard to say what's going on
Still a little bit of your ghost your witness
Still a little bit of your face I haven't kissed

[Vincent]

Damian Rice in my fav writer ATM

What I want from you is empty your head
Well they say be true, don't stain your bed
Well we do what we need to be free
And it leans on me just like a rootless tree
What I want from us is empty our minds
Well we fake a fuss and fracture the times
We go blind when we've needed to see
And this leans on me just like a rootless
So fuck you, fuck you, fuck you
And all we've been through
I said leave it, leave it, leave it
It's nothing to you

[Vincent]

Well, when I'm lyin' in my bed at night
I don't want to grow up
Nothin' ever seems to turn out right
I don't want to grow up
How do you move in a world of fog
That's always changing things?
Makes me wish that I could be a dog
Well, when I see the price that you pay
I don't want to grow up
I don't ever want to be that way
I don't want to grow up
Seems like folks turn into things they they'd never want
The only thing to live for is today
I'm gonna put a hole in my T.V. set
I don't want to grow up
Open up the medicine chest
And I don't want to grow up
I don't want to have to shout it out
I don't want my hair to fall out
I don't want to be filled with doubt
I don't want to be a good boy scout
I don't want to have to learn to count
I don't want to have the biggest…

[VintageFemme]

Wherever you are
You know that I adore you
No matter how far
Well, I can go before you
And if ever you need someone
Well, not that you need helping
But if ever you want someone
Know that I am willing

[Vincent]

This song really uses Eltons classical training,beautiful lyrics to boot.
this is a great thread.

Peering out of tiny eyes
The grubby hands that gripped the rail
Wiped the window clean of frost
As the morning air laid on the latch

A whistle awakened someone there
Next door to the nursery just down the hall
A strange new sound you never heard before
A strange new sound that makes boys explore

Tread neat so small those little feet
Amid the morning his small heart beats
So much excitement yesterday
That must be rewarded must be displayed

Large hands lift him through the air
Excited eyes contain him there
The eyes of those he loves and knows
But what's this extra bed just here

His puzzled head tipped to one side
Amazement swims in those bright green eyes
Glancing down upon this thing
That make strange sounds, strange sounds that sing

In those silent happy seconds
That surround the sound of this event
A parent smile is made in moments
They have made for you a friend

And all you ever learned from them
Until you grew much older
Did not compare with when they said
This is your brand new brother
This is your brand new brother
This is your brand new brother

I took a moment from my day
And wrapped it up in things you say
And mailed it off to your address
You'll get it pretty soon unless

The packaging begins to break
And all the points I tried to make
Are tossed with thoughts into a bin
And time leaks out my life leaks in

I've been wading in the velvet sea

Vintage, i always admire & ❤ your fine musical discernment..it's always beautiful in some unusual way

I only have eyes (for you dear)

My love must be a kind of blind love
Because I can’t see anybody but you

She boo she bop (repeat times 4)

Are the stars out tonight?
I can’t tell if it’s cloudy or bright,
Because I only have eyes for you.

The moon may be high
But I can’t see a thing in the sky
I only have eyes for you…


I don’t know if we’re in a garden
Or on a crowded avenue…

She bop she bop (x4)

You are here
And so am I
Maybe millions of people go by
But they all disappear from view

Because, I only have eyes for you.

She bop she bop (x4)

You can't always get what you want
But if you try sometime
You might find
You get what you need

I love the entire set if lyrics to this country-western song.... probably more so than any other song like it. I like it because it's real....

My favorite verse of this song is verse two (2):

I could sing you a tune and promise you the moon,
but if that's what it takes to hold you,
I just as soon let you go...
But there's one thing I want you to know,
You better look before you leap, still waters run deep,
There won't always be someone there to pull you out,
And you know what I'm talking about!
So smile for awhile and let's be jolly,
Love shouldn't be so melancholy,
Come along and share the good times,
While we can.....

This is *STILL* my most favorite song.

“I could sing you a tune and promise you the moon,
But if that’s what it takes to hold you,
I’d just as soon let cha go,”

“I know it’s everybody’s sin—
You got to lose to know how to win”

Where is the love,
You said was mine, all mine,
Till the end of time, was it just a line,
Where is the love???
