It's another girl's paradise..
~Tori Amos |
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/...-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 |
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 |
Deep within, I'm shaken by the violence of existing for only you.
-Sarah McLachlan |
Her/his lips are drippin honey but
She'll/he'll sting you like a bee |
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: |
Haley Bonar
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... |
There's still time to change the road you're on...

Crystal~Stevie Nicks
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 |
Collin Raye - Love, Me
"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" |
Sugarland ~ Something More
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.... |
Mark Wills' - Don't Laugh At Me
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?
[nomedia="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FVjbo8dW9c8"]Mark Wills - Don't Laugh At Me - YouTube[/nomedia] 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 |
Pistol Annies ~ Hush Hush
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 |
I know everything you don't want me to
|
We stumble into our lives:
Reach for a hand to hold. And any wonder We need to find A certain something, certain. |
The story - Brandi Carlisle
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 |
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...♪ Live ~ lightening crashes |
"She keeps me warm..."

I can't remember what time it was
(When I fell in love with you) |
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. |
"....and as I turned to make my way back home
the snow turned into rain." ~Same Old Lang Syne Dan Fogelberg |
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 |
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 |
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 |
Jewel Kilcher: Foolish Games
"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. :) |
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 |
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. |
Queen: Bohemian Rhapsody
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 |

Lou Reed, How Do You Think It Feels
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 |
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 Poe Trigger Happy Jack |
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 |
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 |

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 |
