Speak in Lyrics

[Enchantress]

The light of spirit burns in everyone
The diamond's buried deep-surrender
When the heart is ready the teacher will come
Nothing remains without change-surrender
The tao of heaven shines in every eye
The diamond's buried deep-surrender
It's a gateless gate for those who never try
Nothing remains without change-surrender

[Soon]

And she said, "I've swallowed a secret burning thread
It cuts me inside, and often I've bled"
He laid his hand then on top of her head
And he bowed her down to the ground.

"Tell me how hungry are you? How weak you must feel
As you are living here alone, and you are never revealed
But I won't march again on your battlefield"
And he took her to the window to see.

And the sun, it was gold, though the sky, it was gray
And she wanted more than she ever could say
But she knew how it frightened her, and she turned away
And would not look at his face again.

And he said, "I want to live as an honest man
To get all I deserve and to give all I can
And to love a young woman who I don't understand
Your highness, your ways are very strange."

I know these corners I know these streets
Curbside prophets they're yellin' at me
He can save my soul for a drink and a dollar
They keep starin' at my tattoos
We all live with the scars we choose
They might hurt like hell
but they all make us stronger.
If you want it
Come and get it
If you want it
Come and get it
Just understand
You take me as I am

Slow to trust but I'm quick to love
Push too hard and I give too much
I ain't sayin' I'm perfect
but I promise I'm worth it.

Moving on to the great 80s Hair Bands: Skid Row, for your pleasure...


We've had our share of hard times
But that's the price we paid
And through it all we kept the promise that we made
I swear you'll never be lonely

Woke up to the sound of pouring rain
Washed away a dream of you
But nothing else could ever take you away
'Cause you'll always be my dream come true
Oh my darling, I love you

Remember yesterday, walking hand in hand?
Love letters in the sand - I remember you
Through the sleepless nights, through every endless day
I wanna hear you say I remember you

Continuing ... The better version of Van Halen, with frontman David Lee Roth. *grin*


Yeah, we're runnin' a little bit hot tonight
I can barely see the road from the heat comin' off
know what I'm sayin'
uhh, I reach down between my legs n' ease the seat back

She's runnin', I'm flyin'
Right behind in the rearview mirror now
Got the fearin', power steerin'
Pistons poppin', ain't no stoppin' now

[Write14u]

And because life is about balance ... lol
Van Halen with Sammy Hagar (not quite as musically cutting, but at times pleasing to the ear):


How do I know when it's love?
I can't tell you but it lasts forever
Ooh, how does it feel when it' love?
It's just something you feel together, hey!

[Write14u]

And I'll leave you with one of my all-time favorites, good enough to be in my profile. *smile*

Gunter glieben glauchen globen
All right
I got something to say
Yeah, it's better to burn out
Yeah, than fade away
All right
Ow Gonna start a fire
C'mon!
Rise up! gather round
Rock this place to the ground
Burn it up let's go for broke
Watch the night go up in smoke

Rock on! Rock on!

Drive me crazier, no serenade
No fire brigade, just Pyromania

What do you want? What do you want?
I want rock'n'roll, yes I do
Long live rock'n'roll

There are voices in the mirror, faces at the door

That open on the rivers we've never seen before

Are there choices for the sparrow, or does he only fly

High above the rivers that are pulling you and I



Oh, there are strange rivers, rivers that we cannot see

There are strange rivers who know our destiny

There are strange rivers who brought your love to me



He could have been a builder, he could have been the one

Who turned his dreams to steel cathedrals in the sun

He could have been a builder, until he bought the gun

There are forces in that river that keep him on the run



Oh, there are strange rivers, rivers that we cannot see

There are strange rivers who know our destiny

There are strange rivers who brought your love to me



Have you ever turned the corner and wondered why you did?

You haven't been that way since you were just a kid

Nothing really happens and then you have to say

You wonder what would happen had you gone the other way



Oh, there are strange rivers, rivers that we cannot see

There are strange rivers who know our destiny

There are strange rivers who brought your love to me

[TickledPink]

There's something in the way she moves,
Or looks my way, or calls my name,
That seems to leave this troubled world behind.
And if I'm feeling down and blue,
Or troubled by some foolish game,
She always seems to make me change my mind.

And I feel fine anytime she's around me now,
She's around me now
Just about all the time
And if I'm well you can tell she's been with me now,
She's been with me now quite a long, long time
And I feel fine.

Every now and then the things I lean on lose their meaning
And I find myself careening
Into places where I should not let me go.
She has the power to go where no one else can find me
And to silently remind me
Of the happiness and the good times that I know, got to know.


And I feel fine anytime she's around me now,
She's around me now
Just about all the time
And if I'm well you can tell she's been with me now,
She's been with me now quite a long, long time
And I feel fine.

It isn't what she's got to say
But how she thinks and where she's been
To me, the words are nice, the way they sound
I like to hear them best that way
It doesn't much matter what they mean
If she says them mostly just to calm me down


And I feel fine anytime she's around me now,
She's around me now
Just about all the time
And if I'm well you can tell she's been with me now,
She's been with me now quite a long, long time
And I feel fine.

[JakeTulane]

We go to a party
and everyone turns to see
this beautiful lady,
who's walking around with me.
And than she asks me: "Do you feel alright?" and I said:
"Yes, I feel wonderful tonight ...
...I feel wonderful because I see the love lights in your eyes....

[Gemme]

It's not a sign of weakness
When it's out of your control
To everything there is a reason
And a time for letting go
Things aren't always as they seem to be
And sometimes life is something
You can't see

So go ahead and cry for something you can understand
There's no real need to ask why for
We're all a part of this master plan
Things aren't always as they seem to be
And sometimes life is something you can't see

[shadows papa]

Where The World Began

I'm tired of being grateful for a chance to take a dive
I'm sick of everything I do just to keep myself alive
When you cut away the skin that bears the brand
Standin' in the darkness, Baby, there I am
Standin' in the darkness
Someone call my name out
Standin' in the darkness
Someone put the flame out
Standin' in the darkness
Baby, there I am
Where the world began
Saw the man in Jamaica, he had a shadow on his back
I recalled the ring of fire, and he wore his suit of black
When the legend and the ocean meet the sand
Standin' in the darkness, Baby, there I am
Standin' in the darkness
Someone call my name out
Standin' in the darkness
Someone put the flame out
Standin' in the darkness
Baby, there I am
Where the world began
Everyone is so fabulous, hey, we all got our gun
Old Snakey's not a sinner, no, he just shows us how it's done
When you separate the wretched from the damned
Standin' in the darkness, Baby, there I am
Standin' in the darkness
Someone call my name out
Standin' in the darkness
Someone put the flame out
Standin' in the darkness
Baby, there I am
Where the world began

[Enchantress]

listen when I'm silent
there's a sound
that only you can hear
listen when it's quiet
I know you can hear it
cover up your ears
cover up your ears

listen...

[Sybelle]

They say bad things happen for a reason
But no wise words gonna stop the bleeding
'Cause she's moved on while I'm still grieving
And when a heart breaks, no it don't breakeven, even, no

[Sybelle]

May it be an evening star
Shines down upon you
May it be when darkness falls
Your heart will be true
You walk a lonely road
Oh! How far you are from home

May it be the shadows call
Will fly away
May it be you journey on
To light the day
When the night is overcome
You may rise to find the sun

[PinkieLee]

And when the day is done
My momma's still my biggest fan
Sometimes, I'm clueless and I'm clumsy
But I've got friends that love me
And they know just where I stand
It's all a part of me
And that's who I am

[UofMfan]

I took my love down to Violet Hill
There we sat in snow
All that time she was silent still

So if you love me
Won't you let me know?

[CrankyOldGuy]

I want the world
I want the whole world
I want to lock it all up in my pocket
It's my bar of chocolate
Give it to me
Now!

[Gemme]

How you choose to express yourself
It's all your own and I can tell
It comes naturally, it comes naturally

You follow what you feel inside
It's intuitive, you don't have to try
It comes naturally, mmmm it comes naturally

And it takes my breath away
What you do, so naturally

You are the thunder and I am the lightning
And I love the way you know who you are
And to me it's exciting
When you know it's meant to be
Everything comes naturally, it comes naturally
When you're with me, baby

Everything comes naturally, it comes naturally
Bay bay baby

You have a way of moving me
A force of nature, your energy
It comes naturally (You know it does)
It comes naturally
Mmmm yeah

And it takes my breath away (Everytime)
What you do, so naturally

You are the thunder and I am the lightning
And I love the way you know who you are
And to me it's exciting
When you know it's meant to be
Everything comes naturally, it comes naturally
When you're with me, baby

Everything comes naturally, it comes naturally
Bay bay baby

When we collide, sparks fly
When you look in my eyes, it takes my breath away

You are the thunder and I am the lightning
And I love the way you know who you are
And to me it's exciting
When you know it's meant to be
Everything comes naturally, it comes naturally
When you're with me, baby

Everything comes naturally, it comes naturally
Bay bay baby

(Naturally)
Naturally
Bay bay baby

(Naturally)
Naturally
Everything baby comes naturally

[Enchantress]

My precious, present will you bloom
To make this fourth dimension womb
