You never slow down you never grow old.

And it's too late now to put out the fire

ohhhh ohhhh Sometimes i get a good feeling!

The motel lights were blinkin'
On my chartreuse four door Lincoln
On the dock the fish were stinkin'
I simply didn't have a care

We used to tell each other lies
With our orange plastic button eyes
In a former life on a motel chair
I was Charlie Parker's teddy bear

Yeah, me and Bird we'd stay up late
I used to watch him contemplate
While his horn would sit by the window and
Wait till it was time for him to blow it

Once again I have gone overboard. Obsessive much? I guess. Anyway some oldies here somebody is sure to recognize.
I do love a well turned phrase.
__________________________________________________ ______________

Was that a raindrop or a tear in your eye?,
were you drying your nails or were you waving good by?

When something goes wrong
I'm the first to admit it
I'm the first to admit it
And the last one to know

You want to fight for this love, but honey you cannot wrestle a dove.

You managed to crawl
Inside my brain
You found a hole
And then you came

I can't light no more of your darkness,
all my pictures seem to fade to black and white

I found an island in your arms
A country in your eyes
Arms that chain,
Eyes that lie

Lullabies look in your eyes,
run around the same old town,
doesn't mean that much to me
to mean that much to you.

Like a worm on a hook
Like a knight bent down in some old-fashioned book
It was the shape of our love that twisted me

If I have been unkind
if I have been untrue
It’s just that I thought a lover had to be some kind of liar too

I was waiting waiting on a moment
But the moment never came
All the million other moments
Were just slippin all away

I'm guilty of a dreadful selfish crime.
I have robbed myself of all my precious time....
One thing I have found, there are just two ways to go,
it all comes down to living fast or dying slow.

I shot the morning in the back
With my red wings on
I told the sun it better go back down

I've got this store-bought way of saying I'm okay,
and you learned how to cry in total silence.

Oh I used to be disgusted
and now I try to be amused

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.

Oh sometimes I see her undressing for me,
she's the soft naked lady love meant her to be
and she's moving her body so brave and so free.
If I've got to remember that's a fine memory.

All you touch and all you see,
Is all your life will ever be.

And you run and you run to catch up with the sun but it's sinking.
Racing around to come up behind you again.
The sun is the same in a relative way but you're older.
Shorter of breath and one day closer to death.

I've been trying to get down to the heart of the matter
but my will gets weak
and my thoughts seem to scatter
but I think it's about forgiveness...
forgiveness,
even if you don't love me anymore.

People talking without speaking,
People hearing without listening,
People writing songs that voices never share,

The love you take is equal to the love you make.

A man walks down the street,
He says, Why am I short of attention?
Got a short little span of attention,
And whoa, my nights are so long!

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.

Well I turned around and I said ho, ho
And the northern lights commenced to glow
And she said, with a tear in her eye
Watch out where the huskies go, and don't you eat that yellow snow

You win a while, and then it’s done –
Your little winning streak.
And summoned now to deal
With your invincible defeat,
You live your life as if it’s real,
A Thousand Kisses Deep.

How could I forget what you said-
the part about that
"Love taking over your life"
was not your plan

Janis Joplin's.... Me & Bobby McGee
 

Freedom's just another word for nothing left to lose...

Christina Aguilera "You Lost Me"

like a love song~
 

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

Hold On Loosely - 38 Special
 

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...

...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...

Can't Take My Eyes Off You by Lady Antebellum
 

Annie Lennox
 

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.

Better than I used to be
 

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

Night of the Hunter...
 

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

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

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

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......

~Glamorous...
 

"Harder to Breathe" ~ Maroon 5
 

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

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:

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"

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.

"Carnival of Rust" ~ Poets of the Fall
 

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

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

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?

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.

you jump in front of my car when you know all the time
 

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.

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.
