Favorite Song lyrics

[animanota]

Today's question is what is your favorite song lyrics and why?
I'll go first

"I mixed the batter and she licked the beater"
-Cherry Pie, Warrent

I loved the look on my subwife's face when I sang that one.

:kiss:

[submissivewife]

She's got the peaches I've got the cream...Def Leppard....

[Silke]

Oh God, can I pick 100? There's so many good lyrics out there. But if I have to choose right now...I'll go with 'So-called Chaos' by Alanis Morissette. It just expresses the wish to break out of routines, fears, self-posed limitations so well for me, a true wake up call. And I love the images she creates. :)

[Aussiegirl1]

I too have so many!

From Silverchair's "The Greatest View" - Mistakes don't mean a thing, if you don't regret them.

[Scorpio'sWill2Power]

"Figured You Out"-Nickelback

I like your pants around your feet
And I like the dirt that's on your knees
And I like the way you still say please
While you're looking up at me
You're like my favourite damn disease

Why do I like it, hmmmmmmm?

Because it's truth and says just how I feel.

[MsUther]

Yes, its lots.
What springs to mind at the moment is from Andrew Birds ~Lull
"I`m so lame, that i think this song is about me, dont i?"

Another one, Azure Ray ~ Rest your eyes

"Everyone is waiting for the timing to be right
and we hope its comming soon.
So just rest your eyes and then
You`ll be in love again"

[DungeonMaster6]

Like what has been said I have so many that I can't fit them all here. But I'll start with a lyric from a Stones song: "Jumpin' Jack Flash."

I was born in a crossfire hurricane, and I howled at my ma in a driving rain, but it's alright now, in fact it's a gas, it's alright, I'm Jumpin' Jack Flash, it's a gas, gas gas.

[eviana]

I like the lyrics to I Am You because they speak to me of my relationship with Master.

You have bound my heart with subtle chains
So much pleasure that it feels like pain
So entwined now that we can't shake free
I am you and you are me

No escaping from the mess we're in
So much pleasure that it must be sin
I must live with this reality
I am yours eternally

[submissivewife]

"Figured You Out"-Nickelback

I like your pants around your feet
And I like the dirt that's on your knees
And I like the way you still say please
While you're looking up at me
You're like my favourite damn disease

Why do I like it, hmmmmmmm?

Because it's truth and says just how I feel.

excellent song choice!

[vistana]

"Figured You Out"-Nickelback

I like your pants around your feet
And I like the dirt that's on your knees
And I like the way you still say please
While you're looking up at me
You're like my favourite damn disease

Why do I like it, hmmmmmmm?

Because it's truth and says just how I feel.

Every time I hear that song on the radio I'm shocked that they can actually play it.
Very very hot!

Bright Eyes - First Day of My Life

"Yours is the first face that I saw
Think I was blind before I met you
I don't know where I am
I don't know where I've been
But I know where I want to go
So I thought I'd let you know
That these things take forever
I especially am slow
But I realized that I need you
And I wondered if I could come home
...
This is the first day of my life
I'm glad I didn't die before I met you
But now I don't care
I could go anywhere with you
And probably be happy."

most romantic song I know. Especially those bolded lines. Conor Oberst is a brilliant lyricist, and this song is lovely, heartfelt and poignant.

[mina]

I'm glad I didn't die before I met you


Damn I REALLY like that... I don't normally like that kind of music but wow I love that line.

[subdude05]

"shaking like a dog shitting razor blades,
Waking up next to nothing,
after dreaming ,
of you and me, waking up so alone,
waking up so relieved,
While you'r taking you'r time with apologys,
I'm planning out my revenge,
Red eyes on orange horizions,
If colombus was wrong i'd drive straight of the edge,
Im seeing red,

Iv got a big fat fucking bone to pick,
with you my darling,
Incase you havent heard im sick,
and tyred of trying.
That i wish you,
would take my radio to bed with you,
Plugged in and ready to fall
(i think its fall, ill find out, it'll probably be in the book)

Alkaline Trio - Radio, i could put any/ all Alkaline trio lyrics on here, expecially off the Maby ill catch fire album, awsome, i'll find some more theres so many great ones. I love 'em

[omnisheep]

they laugh, they make money
he's got a gold watch
shes got a silk dress
and healthy breasts
that bounce on his italian leather sofa

cake - "italian leather sofa"

why? cause cake writes simple melodies with beautiful, lyrical imagery. it can mean something simple, but if you dig deeper there's a whole other meaning to it.

[Avralivia]

a perfect circle - noose

So glad to see you well
Overcome and completely silent now
With heaven's help
You cast your demons out
And not to pull your halo down
Around your neck and tug you off your cloud
But I'm more than just a little curious
How you're planning to go about
Making your amends to the dead
To the dead

Recall the deeds as if
They're all someone else's
Atrocious stories
Now you stand reborn before us all
So glad to see you well

And not to pull your halo down
Around your neck and tug you to the ground
But I'm more than just a little curious
How you're planning to go about
Making your amends to the dead
To the dead

With your halo slipping down
Your halo slipping
Your halo slipping down
Your halo slipping down
Your halo slipping down [repeated]

Your halo slipping down to choke you now

[Warbaby1943]

So many but almost anything by the king - Elvis. Not sure if everything is in the proper order but:

Are you lonesome tonight?
Do you miss me tonight?
Are you sorry we drifted apart?
Do your memories fade to that bright summer day
when I kissed you and called you sweetheart.
Do the chairs in your parlor seem empty and bare?
Do you stare at the doorway and wish I were there?
Is your heart full of pain?
Shall I come back again?
Tell me dear are you lonesome tonight?

[heycarrieanne]

An older version of me
Is she perverted like me
Would she go down on you in a theatre
------
It was a slap in the face how quickly I was replaced
Are you thinking of me when you fuck her


A great song -- You Oughta Know by Alanis Morissette

[Kostas]

Don't give in without a fight

"Hey You" by Pink Floyd

[Daes]

Soo many to choose from!!

"Nymphetamine" -Cradle of Faith
Lead to the river
Midsummer, I waved
A 'V' of black swans
On with hope to the grave
All through Red September
With skies fire-paved
I begged you appear
Like a thorn for the holy ones

"A Kiss to Remember"- My Dying Bride
Open me, and drink up my scarlet
Kiss me deep, kiss me deep and love me forever more
Bloody love, bloody love inside of you
Swallow me, thank God, there's nothing I can do

Come with me my friend, come and see the end
And let me swallow up your pain
Leave the village lights, step into the night
Open your mouth to my bloody rain
And at your second birth, we will slay the earth
And stalk mankind 'til Heaven burns
Just lay down for me, naked for me to see
It's just one kiss, that's all I need

"My December"- Linkin Park
And I... Just wish that I didn't feel like there was something I missed
And I... Take back all the things I said to make you feel like that
And I... Just wish that I didn't feel like there was something I missed
And I... Take back all the things that I said to you

And I'd give it all away
Just to have somewhere to go to
Give it all away
To have someone to come home to

These three songs mean sooo much to me, i coulnt just pick one. They are all beautiful and just.. amazing songs.

[Qmoq]

Eels - "I like a girl with a dirty mind"

Kinda sums me up.

Kudos to omnisheep for putting in a Cake song - they also had one called "Short Skirt, Long Jacket" which had similar imagery :)

[hawk_fann]

It is a tie for me, two lyrics with jarringly contrasting tones:

"Cancel my subscription to the resurrection." (The Doors - When the Music's Over)

"Really like your peaches want to shake your tree." (Steve Miller - The Joker)

[Qmoq]

Damn you, hawk, you've come up with two good ones there!

Cheers,

Q

[vistana]

Avralivia - wow, now I need to go an listen to that Perfect Circle song again!
I own it but never listened to the lyrics before, and those are pretty damn awesome.

Also -

Look I'm standing naked before you,
Don't you want more than my sex?
I can scream as loud as your last one
But I can't claim innocence
Tori Amos - Leather

I didn't want to hurt you but you're pretty when you cry
...
I didn't want to fuck you but you're pretty when you're mine
...
I didn't really love you but I'm pretty when I lie
Pretty When You Cry - Vast


on a lighter note -
I'm gonna clone Pierre Trudeau
From a semen stain in the broom closet
Of the P.M.O. in Ottawa
I have the technology

I'm gonna raise him well take him camping
Teach him how to paddle a canoe
Feed him maple leaves and poutine
In fifty years have a leader who
Stands for more than himself

And he'll sing
Ca-na-na-na-na-na Canada

I'm gonna clone Andy Griffith
From a semen stain in the dressing room
Of Julie Sommers it was quite a scandal
I have the technology

I'm gonna raise him well spend time in courtrooms
Teach him how to cross examine
Hire him a young black lackey
In fifty years have a lawyer who can
Get Leonard Pelletier out of jail

And he'll sing
Ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma Matlock

I'm gonna clone Imelda Marcos
From a menstrual stain
On sixteen hundred pairs of pumps

And she'll sing
No one can really be neutral about you
Once you've reached a certain point in life
You just hope that people love you
More than they hate you

I'm gonna clone Jesus Christ
From a semen stain on a mattress cover
In a hotel in Montreal
I have the technology

I'm gonna raise him well build kitchen cabinets
Make sure he knows that he's king of the Jews
Get him a lucrative Nike sponsorship
In fifty years have a savior who's
Already been dead for fifteen years


Nathan Caswell - Pierre Trudeau

[Timberwolf]

I love Johnny Cash's version of the song Thirteen
"Bad luck wind been blowing at my back
I was born to bring trouble to wherever I'm at"

Bit of an anti-hero anthem I suppose.

In terms of a sexy lyric, you can't really go wrong with Led Zeppelin
"Squeeze my lemon 'till the juice runs down my leg
Squeeze me so hard that I fall right out of bed"

Makes me smile every time, anyway.

[Curious George]

"...let me in I wanna be your friend
I wanna guard your dreams and visions,
just wrap your legs round these velvet rims
and strap your hands 'cross my engines"

Born to Run - The Boss (Springsteen that is...)

Ooooooo... gives me goosebumps just repeating it :D

On a lighter note:
"Have a little faith, there's magic in the night
you ain't a beauty but hey you're alright"

Thunder Road - The Boss (again)

More sensually, the whole of "Love me to Death" by The (UK) Mission, particularly:
"Hold me dear, and bury me deep
bless me with your word of savage honour
we love more by fate than design
so give me your hand and I'll gladly give you my life"

Oh I could go on and on and on....

[TheLordJustice]

Johnny Cash's Hurt

I hurt myself today
To see if I still feel
I focus on the pain
The only thing that's real
The needle tears a hole
The old familiar sting
Try to kill it all away
But I remember everything

[Chorus:]
What have I become
My sweetest friend
Everyone I know goes away
In the end
And you could have it all
My empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you hurt

I wear this crown of thorns
Upon my liar's chair
Full of broken thoughts
I cannot repair
Beneath the stains of time
The feelings disappear
You are someone else
I am still right here

[Chorus:]
What have I become
My sweetest friend
Everyone I know goes away
In the end
And you could have it all
My empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you hurt

If I could start again
A million miles away
I would keep myself
I would find a way

And John Prines "Sam Stone"
Sam Stone came home,
To his wife and family
After serving in the conflict overseas.
And the time that he served,
Had shattered all his nerves,
And left a little shrapnel in his knee.
But the morphine eased the pain,
And the grass grew round his brain,
And gave him all the confidence he lacked,
With a Purple Heart and a monkey on his back.

Chorus:
There's a hole in daddy's arm where all the money goes,
Jesus Christ died for nothin' I suppose.
Little pitchers have big ears,
Don't stop to count the years,
Sweet songs never last too long on broken radios.
Mmm....

Hurt reminds me of all the wasted things ive done in my life, while Sam Stone reminds me of the 2 week period i was in hospital under heavy dosages of morphine

Abba ~ Chiquitita

Chiquitita, tell me what's wrong
You're enchained by your own sorrow
In your eyes there is no hope for tomorrow
How I hate to see you like this
There is no way you can deny it
I can see that you're oh so sad, so quiet

Chiquitita, tell me the truth
I'm a shoulder you can cry on
Your best friend, I'm the one you must rely on
You were always sure of yourself
Now I see you've broken a feather
I hope we can patch it up together

Chiquitita, you and I know
How the heartaches come and they go and the scars they're leaving
You'll be dancing once again and the pain will end
You will have no time for grieving
Chiquitita, you and I cry
But the sun is still in the sky and shining above you
Let me hear you sing once more like you did before
Sing a new song, Chiquitita
Try once more like you did before
Sing a new song, Chiquitita

So the walls came tumbling down
And your love's a blown out candle
All is gone and it seems too hard to handle
Chiquitita, tell me the truth
There is no way you can deny it
I see that you're oh so sad, so quiet


Silence ~ Sarah McLachlan

Give me release
witness me
I am outside
give me peace

Heaven holds a sense of wonder
and I wanted to believe
that I'd get caught up
when the rage in me subsides

In this white wave
I am sinking
in this silence
in this white wave
in this silence
I believe

Passion chokes the flower
'til she cries no more
possessing all the beauty
hungry still for more

Heaven holds a sense of wonder...

I can't help this longing
comfort me
I can't hold it all in
if you won't let me

Heaven holds a sense of wonder...

In this white wave
I am sinking
in this silence
in this white wave
in this silence
I believe

I have seen you
in this white wave
you are silent
you are breathing
in this white wave
I am free

[Timberwolf]

See if this strikes a chord with certain overzealous Dominants: ;-)

The chorus of Iron Maiden's "Powerslave"
"Tell me why I had to be a powerslave
I don't wanna die, I'm a god, why can't I live on?
When the Life Giver dies, all around is laid waste.
And in my last hour,
I'm a slave to the power of death."

[Widget]

Sunrise ~ Simply Red

As I look into your eyes I see the sunrise
The light behind your face helps me realize
Will we sleep and sometimes love until the moon shines
Maybe the next time I'll be yours and maybe you'll be mine

Easy, ready, willing, over time
Where does it stop where do you dare me to draw the line
You've got the body now you want my soul
Don't even think about it say no go


Save Our Souls ~ Jewel

So we pray to as many different God's as there are flowers
But we call religion our friend
We're so worried about saving our souls
Afraid that God will take His toll
That we forget to begin

[The Good Girl]

Will have to go with CG on this one.... damn, still trying to learn the lyrics before I wed next week....

I hope when my hubby-to-be becomes my lord and master for all time he says these words.....

i'm just a scared and lonely rider
But I gotta find out how it feels
I want to know if love is wild , girl I want to know if love is real


Oh it's real (and wickedly fun too!) :rolleyes:

'The good girl receives the honourable addresses of her master'

Remember:

'Someday boy I don't know when, we're gonna get to that place
where we really want to go and we'll walk in the sun
But till then tramps like us baby we were born to run.....

xx

[Curious George]

Hello Good Girl, I take it you're at home and not doing this from work?

Boys and girls of the forums, I do believe this is my very gorgeous fiancee, love of my life and wife to be in seven and a half days, who has independently found her way here of her own accord!
Well I'll be blowed.... (I think that will come tomorrow :) )

[Timberwolf]

Congratulations to both of you on finding your match! I hope the two of you find plenty of time for the old :erotic3: definitely some of the :tongue1: and perhaps a bit of the :crop: if that's your thing. :)

[Timberwolf]

Black Sabbath "NIB"

Some people say my love cannot be true
Please believe me, my love, and Ill show you
I will give you those things you thought unreal
The sun, the moon, the stars all bear my seal

Oh yeah!

Follow me now and you will not regret
Leaving the life you led before we met
You are the first to have this love of mine
Forever with me till the end of time

Your love for me has just got to be real
Before you know the way Im going to feel
Im going to feel
Im going to feel

Oh yeah!

Now I have you with me, under my power
Our love grows stronger now with every hour

My name is lucifer, please take my hand

Oh yeah!

[Timberwolf]

I hadn't heard this one in a while but it cropped up in a playliest of mine tonight. Seems appropriate.

Goo Goo Dolls, "Iris"
Verse 1

And I'd give up forever to touch you
Cause I know that you feel me somehow
You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be
And I don't want to go home right now
Verse 2

And all I can taste is this moment
And all I can breathe is your life
Cause sooner or later it's over
I just don't want to miss you tonight
Chorus

And I don't want the world to see me
Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
Verse 3

And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming
Or the moment of truth in your lies
When everything seems like the movies
Yeah you bleed just to know your alive

Chorus

And I don't want the world to see me
Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
Chorus

I don't want the world to see me
Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am

[Silke]

oooohh, I love that song!! Nice choice, Timberwolf. :)

[Aesop]

One of my favorites too.

[Timberwolf]

"Don't try and blame me for your sins
For the sun has burned me black
Your hollow lives, this world in which we live
I hurl it back"

- Bruce Dickinson, "The Alchemist"

[Widget]

Blue Öyster Cult ~ Veteran of the Psychic Wars

You ask me why I'm weary
Why I can't speak to you
You blame me for my silence
Say it's time I changed and grew
But the war's still going on, dear
And there's no end that I know
And I can't say if we're ever
I can't say if we're ever gonna be free


Don't Let Me Get Me ~ Pink

Never win first place, I don't support the team
I can't take direction, and my socks are never
clean
Teachers dated me, my parents hated me
I was always in a fight cuz I can't do nothin'
right


King Nothing ~ Metallica

Where's your crown King Nothing?


Mental As Anything ~ LIVE IT UP

How can you see looking through those tears
Don't you know you're worth your weight in gold
I can't believe that you're alone in here
Let me warm your hands against the cold
If you smiled the walls would fall down
On all the people in this pickup joint
but if you laughed you'd level this town
Hey lonely girl that's just the point

[Timberwolf]

"So close, no matter how far
Couldn't be much more from the heart
Forever trusting who we are
and nothing else matters

Never opened myself this way
Life is ours, we live it our way
All these words I don't just say
and nothing else matters

Trust I seek and I find in you
Every day for us something new
Open mind for a different view
and nothing else matters

never cared for what they do
never cared for what they know
but I know "

Metallica, "Nothing Else Matters"

Wonderful lyrics...gotta keep an eye out for that song...:)

[Kostas]

"You fear the lesson
And fear to walk
And fear to pass on
Your fear to talk

The teacher was feared
Your parents too
Then you became
The fear of you

Fear

Look to yourself
Climb over the wall
And see behind
That you're not so small
Then you won't blame fear
When competing's too much
As you fall on your back
As you fail to touch

Fear

And I say to you
When your fear is strong
When you fear your life
Then your fear is wrong
Set free your past
So shredding the skin
Then you won't fear
The fear of sin

Fear"



"In Fear Of Fear" by Bauhaus

Pearl Jam - "Elderly Woman Behind the Counter in a Small Town"

I seem to recognize your face
Haunting, familiar, yet I can't seem to place it
Cannot find the candle of thought to light your name
Lifetimes are catching up with me
All these changes taking place,
I wish I'd seen the place
But no one's ever taken me
Hearts and thoughts they fade, fade away... (2x)

I swear I recognize your breath
Memories like fingerprints are slowly raising
Me you wouldn't recall, for
I'm not my former
It's hard when you're stuck upon the shelf
I changed by not changing at all, small town predicts my fate
Perhaps that's what no one wants to see
I just want to scream...hello...
My God its been so long, never dreamed you'd return
But now here you are, and here I am
Hearts and thoughts they fade...away...

Hearts and thoughts they fade, fade away... (2x)
Hearts and thoughts they fade...away...
Hearts and thoughts they fade, fade away... (3x)
Hearts and thoughts they fade...

Keep me in your mind till I

I'm Leaving you ~ Scorpions

Love Is A Burning Thing
And It Makes A Fiery Ring
Bound By Wild Desire
I Fell Into A Ring Of Fire

Ring of Fire ~ Johnny Cash

Restless tonight
Cause I wasted the light
Between both these times
I drew a really thin line
It’s nothing I planned
And not that I can
But you should be mine
Across that line

If I traded it all
If I gave it all away for one thing
Just for one thing
If I sorted it out
If I knew all about this one thing
Wouldn’t that be something

I promise I might
Not walk on by
Maybe next time
But not this time

Even though I know
I don’t want to know
Yeah I guess I know
I just hate how it sounds

One Thing ~ Finger Eleven

[Timberwolf]

"One Thing" is an awesome song. Love it.

The Who - "Eminence Front"
The sun shines
And people forget
The spray flies as the speedboat glides
And people forget
Forget they're hiding
The girls smile
And people forget
The snow packs as the skier tracks
And people forget
Forget they're hiding.

Behind an eminence front
Eminence front - It's a put on.

Come on join the party
Dress to kill
Won't you come and join the party
Dress to kill.

The drinks flow
People forget
That big wheel spins, the hair thins
People forget
Forget they're hiding
The news slows
People forget
The shares crash, hopes are dashed
People forget
Forget they're hiding.

Behind an eminence front
Eminence front - it's a put on
Come on join the party
Dress to
Come on join the party
Dress to
Come on join the party
Dress to
Come on join the party
Dress to kill
Dress yourself, dressed to kill.

Rammstein - "Rein Raus"

(Translated to English so it may not be completely exact. "In Out".)

I am the rider
you are the horse
I climb on
we ride off
you moan
I whisper to you
an elephant in the eye of a needle
In, out
I am the rider
you are the horse
I have the key
you have the lock
the door opens
I enter
life can be so splendorous
In, out
Deeper, deeper
Say it! Say it loud!
deeper, deeper
I am well within your skin
and a thousand elephants break out
The ride was short
I am sorry
I climb off
I have no time
I must go now to the other horses
they also want to be ridden
In, out
In (deeper)
Out (deeper)

We got somethin' we both know it
We don't talk too much about it
Yeah it ain't no real big secret all the same
Somehow we get around it
Listen it don't really matter to me baby
You believe what you want to believe
You see you don't have to live like a refugee

Somewhere, somehow somebody
Must have kicked you around some
Tell me why you wanna lay there
And revel in your abandon
Listen it don't make no difference to me baby
Everybody's had to fight to be free
You see you don't have to live like a refugee
Now baby you don't have to live like a refugee

Refugee ~ Tom Petty

One of my favorite songs is "Suspension" by Mae. Here are some of the lyrics.

Say anything, but say what you mean
When you whisper you want this
Your eyes tell the same
We are gaining speed
I can barely breathe
Cause I'm caught in suspension

The Doors - "Go Insane"

Once I had a little game
I liked to crawl back in my brain
I think you know the game I mean
I mean the game called 'go insane'
Now you should try this little game
Just close your eyes forget your name
Forget the world, forget the people
And we'll erect a different steeple.

This little game is fun to do.
Just close your eyes, no way to lose.
And I'm right here, i'm going too.
Release control, we're breaking through.

Skin, yeah chilled me to the bone
You, turned and you ran,
Oh yeah,
Oh slipped, right from my hand

Hey
Blue on black
Tears on a river
Push on a shove
It dont mean much
Joker on jack
Match on a fire
Cold on ice
A dead mans touch
Wisper on a scream
Doesnt change a thing
Dont bring you back
Blue on black
Oh yeah, blue on black

Blind, oh, now I see
Truth, lies, and in between
Wrong, cant be undone
Oh slipped, from the tip of
Your tounge

Mary got pregnant from a kid named Tom that said he was in love
He said, "Don't worry about a thing, baby doll
I'm the man you've been dreaming of."
But 3 months later he say he won't date her or return her calls
And she swear, "God damn, if I find that man I'm cuttin' off his balls."
And then she heads for the clinic and
she gets some static walking through the door
They call her a killer, and they call her a sinner
and they call her a whore
God forbid you ever had to walk a mile in her shoes
'Cause then you really might know what it's like to have to choose

Less concerned, about fitting into the world
Your world that is!
Cause it doesn't really matter anymore
(no, it doesn't really matter anymore)
No, it doesn't really matter anymore
None of this shit really matters anymore

You can have my isolation, you can have the hate that it brings
You can have my absence of faith, you can have my everything
Help me tear down my reason, help me its your sex I can smell
Help me you make me perfect, help me become somebody else
I want to f**k you like an animal
I want to feel you from the inside
I want to f**k you like an animal
My whole existence is flawed
You get me closer to god

Closer ~ NIN


I see you there in your satin shirt unfocussed eyes on the ceiling
fluorescent lips on a painted face I think I know what you're feeling
this tightrope just begins to feel like home
when the wind comes rising from a desert storm
and all I know is that tonight I might let go the line, let go the line
unwrap yourself for a starving man come drown your thoughts if they bite you
turn off the world if it makes you hurt I’m just a clown but I like you
I see you there in your satin shirt unfocussed eyes on the ceiling
a trace of smile on a frozen face I think I know what you're stealing
life has been likened to a poker deal
or a poor brief candle or a karmic wheel
and all I know is that tonight I might let go the line, let go the line

Let Go the Line ~ Max Webster

[Widget]

You Instantly awakened my imagination
Old fashioned infatuation
I can be anything that you want me to be
And you can have me in every position that you dreamed
I know you've got a wild streak
You're a freak
You're alone in your bed with graphic images in your head

Let me do what I want to do with you
Let me tie you down pick you up and
Flip you all around
Let me tell you how sexy you are
As I'm going down on you in the car
If feeling this good is a sin
Let's do it all over again.

Just when I thought this might get boring
Wake me up in the morning by pouring
Honey on my body and licking it off
You're taking me to concerts and you're taking off your top
I know you've got a wild streak
You're a freak
Then you're back in our room with the bride and the groom

This is it
This is great
This is what I always wanted
Where do we go from here?
That's the question of the year
I think you're fine
I think you're hot
This is what I always dreamed of
The one thing I forgot
Was to get to know you

Do it Again ~ Stroke 9

[MajesticFae]

The lyrics in my signature from "Cigarette's and Chocolate Milk" by Rufus Wainwright are probably one of my favorite sets as well as the rest of the song. =)

[maddie]

This one has helped me get through some down times. My mother passed away three years ago and, when I heard this, I knew it'd be something to help me when I'm sad.

Keep Me In Your Heart -- Warren Zevon

Shadows are falling and I'm running out of breath
Keep me in your heart for awhile
If I leave you it doesn't mean I love you any less
Keep me in your heart for awhile

When you get up in the morning and you see that crazy sun
Keep me in your heart for awhile
There's a train leaving nightly called when all is said and done
Keep me in your heart for awhile

Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la-li-li-lo
Keep me in your heart for awhile

Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la-li-li-lo
Keep me in your heart for awhile

Sometimes when you're doing simple things around the house
Maybe you'll think of me and smile

You know I'm tied to you like the buttons on your blouse
Keep me in your heart for awhile
Hold me in your thoughts, take me to your dreams
Touch me as I fall into view
When the winter comes keep the fires lit
And I will be right next to you

Engine driver's headed north to Pleasant Stream
Keep me in your heart for awhile

These wheels keep turning but they're running out of steam
Keep me in your heart for awhile

Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la-li-li-lo
Keep me in your heart for awhile

Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la-li-li-lo
Keep me in your heart for awhile

Keep me in your heart for awhile

[Silke]

*sighs* I know what you mean, maddie...those are wonderful lyrics. Thanks for sharing. I'll try and remember to look at them the next time I feel lonely. :)

[Qmoq]

Umm. No-one said that the lyrics have to be deep and meaningful. I love songs that make me smile with silly lyrics.

For instance:

"You said Dostoyevsky was the greatest of them all,
In my opinion Boniek had better ball-control..."

That's from a song called "Kick Me With Your Leather Boots" by the Sultans Of Ping FC.

[It helps if you know that Boniek played football for Poland in the 70's and 80's...]

The same song (which I just listened to to confirm the quote) also contains the verse:
"You took me to your bedroom and I got such a thrill
It was like a sequel to 'The Boys From Brazil'
When we wear our leather boots we're so unashamed
Your smashing left foot volley sends the blood to my brain."

[Timberwolf]

This song has literally nothing to do with BDSM, but that wasn't the only purpose of the thread I guess. And it neeed a bump anyway. :)

Aces High - Iron Maiden

There goes the siren that warns of the air raid
Then comes the sound of the guns sending flak
Out for the scramble we've got to get airborne
Got to get up for the coming attack.

Jump in the cockpit and start up the engines
Remove all the wheel blocks
there's no time to waste
Gathering speed as we head down the runway
Gotta get airborne before it's too late

Running, scrambling, flying
Rolling, turning, diving, going in again
Run, live to fly, fly to live, do or die
Run, live to fly, fly to live, Aces high

Move in to fire at the mainstream of bombers
Let off a sharp burst and then turn away
Roll over, spin round and come in behind them
Move to their blindsides and firing again

Bandits at 8 o'clock move in behind us
Ten ME-109's out of the sun
Ascending and turning out spitfires to face them
Heading straight for them I press my guns

Rolling, turning, diving
Rolling, turning, diving, goin' again
Run, live to fly, fly to live, do or die
Run, live to fly, fly to live, Aces high

[OttifantSir]

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.

There's a feeling I get when I look to the west,
And my spirit is crying for leaving.
In my thoughts I have seen rings of smoke through the trees,
And the voices of those who stand looking.
Ooh, it makes me wonder,
Ooh, it really makes me wonder.

And it's whispered that soon if we all call the tune
Then the piper will lead us to reason.
And a new day will dawn for those who stand long
And the forests will echo with laughter.

If there's a bustle in your hedgerow, don't be alarmed now,
It's just a spring clean for the May queen.
Yes, there are two paths you can go by, but in the long run
There's still time to change the road you're on.
And it makes me wonder.

Your head is humming and it won't go, in case you don't know,
The piper's calling you to join him,
Dear lady, can you hear the wind blow, and did you know
Your stairway lies on the whispering wind.

And as we wind on down the road
Our shadows taller than our soul.
There walks a lady we all know
Who shines white light and wants to show
How everything still turns to gold.
And if you listen very hard
The tune will come to you at last.
When all are one and one is all
To be a rock and not to roll.

And she's buying a stairway to heaven.

(First time I have the full lyrics to this song, as I could never consentrate enough when listening to it to write it down on my own.)

This is by far my all-time favorite of songs. I have gone weeks without listening to anything but this song. You'd think I knew it by heart then, but no. I always felt that if I learned this song or wrote down all the lyrics the magic would be gone. I am sure some of the magic comes from the first time I heard it at a friend's house. It was an LP-recording, and the Hermit-drawing inside the cover standing on top of this stairway with a light in his hand guiding us, kicked my imagination into high gear. Every time I listen to this song, I see an old village, a woman passing through, looking for the right way to turn to get to that stairway. On the way there's danger, she makes a few wrong turns, starting down the road to hell, but in the end, the Hermit stands tall, and she starts the eternal climb up the stairs to Heaven, looking at the world with a newfound pleasure for the going-ons of the world, seeing it with new eyes and doesn't see the run-down version we live in everyday, but the one that was intended to be before Evil corrupted it. I see hope and a new start in this song.

Of course, the song in my signature is also important to me, but this is because it talks to me, trying to explain how people feel when you commit suicide. And it has surely helped me avoid that.

[SheepishJaina]

oh, Stairway to Heaven is one of my favs. I havnt heard it in ages either! *digs through her playlists*

[cookiecat]

not the all time favorite but am listening to this now and lately, this just seems to resonate:

you're the only one that i love
scares me more every day
on my knees, i think clearer

chocolate - snow patrol

[mina]

Changes all the time, but right now it’s a tie between...

When love lay bleeding
And Fates sate feeding
From wounds gored ‘neath
Those cherubic wings
She of kindred light
Gladly sacrificed
Eternity
Just to be
With me

From "All Hope in Eclipse"

and...

A saint blessed me, drank me deeply
Spitting out the misery in me
Still a sinner rapes a thousand saints
Sharing the same hell with me

Sanest choice in this insane world...
Beware the Beast, but enjoy the feast He offers.

From "Beauty of the Beast"

[Satan]

Pantera - Cemetery Gates

[Timberwolf]

This song wouldn't normally be my thing but a female friend said I needed to hear it because it was just so damn sleazy. Ladies, if you ever feel the need to do a striptease for your man, this, without question, is the song you need to find to do it.

Paula Cole - "Feelin' Love"

Love, love

You make me feel like a sticky pistil
leaning into a stamen
You make me feel like a mister sunshine
Himself
You make me feel like splendor in the grass
While we're rollin'
Damn skippy baby
You make me feel like the Amazon's runnin' between
my thighs

CHORUS:

You make me feel love, love, love, love, love
love, love, love, love, love
You make me feel love, love, love, love, love
love, love, love, love

You make me feel like a candy apple
All red and horney
You make me feel like I wanna be a dumb blonde
In a centerfold, the girl next door
And I would open the door and
I'd be all wet
With my tits soaking through this tiny little t-shirt
That I'm wearing
And you would open the door and tie
Me up to the bed

Chorus

Lover, I don't know who I am OOohhh
Am I Barry White? Am I hot inside? Ohhh...
Lover, I'm laced with your unconscious
Oh baby babe babe baby
I will be your Desdemona ahhhhh...

Take your time

You make me feel Ahaa
You make me feel WooWoo baby
You make me feel Ahaa mmm
You make me feel loved

The Mess We're In - PJ Harvey (with Thom Yorke)

(Thom Yorke )
Can you hear them
The helicopters
I'm in New York
No need for words now
We sit in silence
You look me
In the eye directly
You met me
I think it's Wednesday
The evening
The mess we're in
And ooooh...

( PJ Harvey )
The city sunset over me
The city sunset over me

( Thom Yorke )
Night and day
I dream of
Making love
To you now baby
Love making
On screen
Impossible dream
And I have seen
The sunrise over the river
The freeway
Reminding of
This mess we're in
And ooooh...

( PJ Harvey )
The city sunset over me
The city sunset over me

( PJ talking / Thom singing...together )
What were you wanting / What was that you wanted
I just wanna say
Don't ever change now baby
I'd thank you
I don't think we will meet again
And you must leave now
Before the sun rises
Over the skyscrapers
And the city landscape comes into view
Sweat on my skin
Oh
This mess we're in
Ooooh...

( PJ Harvey )
The city sunset over me

[Flaming_Redhead]

"Creep"

When you were here before
Couldn't look you in the eye
You're just like an angel
Your skin makes me cry
You float like a feather
In a beautiful world
I wish I was special
You're so fucking special
But I 'm a creep
I 'm a weirdo
What the hell am I doing here?
I don't belong here

I don't care if it hurts
I want to have control
I want a perfect body
I want a perfect soul
I want you to notice
When I'm not around
You're so fucking special
I wish I was special

But I'm a creep
I'm a weirdo
What the hell am I doing here?
I don't belong here

She's running out again
She's running out
She run, run, run run
Run

Whatever makes you happy
Whatever you want
You're so fucking special
I wish I was special
But I'm a creep
I'm a weirdo
What the hell am I doing here?
I don't belong here
I don't belong here.



Haven't we all felt like this at some point in our lives?

[Qmoq]

Oh my. Someone posted "Creep". I love that song.

Oh my. It was red. I like red.

Hold me back people, I might have to grope this gal.

I love the first verse of Rammtein's Ich Will (I want). Translated it comes out:

I want you to trust me
I want you to believe me
I want to feel your eyes
I want to control every heartbeat

I can't imagine what that could be about. ;)

I love the lyrics to Holy Water

She says take me away and take me farther
Surround me now like holy water

[RickBulow74]

I love the lyrics to Some Kind of Wonderful.

I don't need a whole lot of money,
I don't need a big fine car.
I got everything a man could want and I got more than I could ask for.
I don't have to run around, I don't have to stay out all night.
'Cause I got me a sweet, a sweet lovin' woman and she knows how to treat me right.

[frankee]

We'll do it all, everything, on our own
We don't need anything or anyone

If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lay with me
And just forget the world

I don't quite know how to say how I feel
Those three words are said too much
They're not enough

If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lay with me
And just forget the world
Forget what we're told
Before we get too old
Show me a garden that's bursting into life






Let's waste time
Chasing cars
Around our heads
I need your grace to remind me
To find my own

If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lay with me
And just forget the world
Forget what we're told
Before we get too old
Show me a garden that's bursting into life

All that I am
All that I ever was
Is here in your perfect eyes
They're all I can see
I don't know where
Confused about how as well
I just know that these things
Will never change for us at all

If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lay with me
And just forget the world

Unfaithful......Rihanna

Story of my life
Searching for the right
But it keeps avoiding me
Sorrow in my soul
Cause it seems that wrong
Really loves my company

Hes more than a man
And this is more than love
The reason that the sky is blue
But clouds are rolling in
Because I'm gone again
And to him I just can't be true

And I know that he knows I'm unfaithful
And it kills him inside
To know that I am happy with some other guy
I can see him dying

I don't wanna do this anymore
I don't wanna be the reason why
Everytime I walk out the door
I see him die a little more inside
I don't wanna hurt him anymore
I don't wanna take away his life
I don't wanna be...
A murderer

I feel it in the air
As I'm doing my hair
Preparing for another date
A kiss up on my cheek
He's here reluctantly
As if I'm gonna be out late
I say I won't be long
Just hanging with the girls
A lie I didn't have to tell
Because we both know
Where I'm about to go
And we know it very well

Cause I know that he knows I'm unfaithful
And it kills him inside
To know that I am happy with some other guy
I can see him dying

I don't wanna do this anymore
I don't wanna be the reason why
Everytime I walk out the door
I see him die a little more inside
I don't wanna hurt him anymore
I don't wanna take away his life
I don't wanna be...
A murderer

Our Love, his trust
I might as well take a gun and put it to his head
Get it over with
I don't wanna do this
Anymore (anymore)

I don't wanna do this anymore
I don't wanna be the reason why
Everytime I walk out the door
I see him die a little more inside
I don't wanna hurt him anymore
I don't wanna take away his life
I don't wanna be...
A murderer (a murderer)

No no no no

Yeah yeah

Skunk Anansie - Weak

Lost in time I can`t count the words
(I) said when I thought they went unheard
All of those harsh thoughts so unkind
`Cos I wanted you

(And) now I sit here I`m all alone
So here sits a bloody mess, tears fly home
A circle of angels, deep in war
`Cos I wanted you

Weak as I am, no tears for you
Weak as I am, no tears for you
Deep as I am, I`m no ones fool
Weak as I am

So what am I now but loves last home
I`m all of the soft words I once owned
If I opened my heart, there`d be no space for air
`Cos I wanted you

In this tainted soul
In this weak young heart
Am I too much for you

Todays tune.....

[Timberwolf]

I was just listening to this. Awesome little song.

My Last Breath - Evanescence

hold on to me love
you know i can't stay long
all i wanted to say was i love you and i'm not afraid
can you hear me?
can you feel me in your arms?

holding my last breath
safe inside myself
are all my thoughts of you
sweet raptured light it ends here tonight

i'll miss the winter
a world of fragile things
look for me in the white forest
hiding in a hollow tree (come find me)
i know you hear me
i can taste it in your tears

holding my last breath
safe inside myself
are all my thoughts of you
sweet raptured light it ends here tonight

closing your eyes to disappear
you pray your dreams will leave you here
but still you wake and know the truth
no one's there

say goodnight
don't be afraid
calling me calling me as you fade to black

holding my last breath
safe inside myself
are all my thoughts of you
sweet raptured light it ends here tonight

[frankee]

i love that song TW!

[frankee]

I have to block out thoughts of you so I don’t lose my head
They crawl in like a cockroach leaving babies in my bed
Dropping little reels of tape to remind me that I’m alone
Playing movies in my head that make a porno feel like home
There's a burning in my pride, a nervous bleeding in my brain
An ounce of peace is all I want for you. Will you never call again?
And will you never say that you love me just to put it in my face?
And will you never try to reach me?
It is I that wanted space

Hate me today
Hate me tomorrow
Hate me for all the things I didn't do for you

Hate me in ways
Yeah ways hard to swallow
Hate me so you can finally see what’s good for you

I’m sober now for 3 whole months it’s one accomplishment that you helped me with
The one thing that always tore us apart is the one thing I won’t touch again
In a sick way I want to thank you for holding my head up late at night
While I was busy waging wars on myself, you were trying to stop the fight
You never doubted my warped opinions on things like suicidal hate
You made me compliment myself when it was way too hard to take
So I’ll drive so fucking far away that I never cross your mind
And do whatever it takes in your heart to leave me behind

Hate me today
Hate me tomorrow
Hate me for all the things I didn’t do for you

Hate me in ways
Yeah ways hard to swallow
Hate me so you can finally see what’s good for you

And with a sad heart I say bye to you and wave
Kicking shadows on the street for every mistake that I had made
And like a baby boy I never was a man
Until I saw your blue eyes cry and I held your face in my hand
And then I fell down yelling “Make it go away!”
Just make a smile come back and shine just like it used to be
And then she whispered “How can you do this to me?”

Hate me today
Hate me tomorrow
Hate me for all the things I didn’t do for you

Hate me in ways
Yeah ways hard to swallow
Hate me so you can finally see what’s good for you
For you
For you
For you

Hate Me-Blue October

Hot Mama - Trace Adkins

You're doin' all you can
To get in those old jeans,
You want that body back
You had at 17
Well baby don't get down
Don't you worry about a thing
'Cause the way you fill them out
Hey, that's all right with me
I don't don't want the girl you used to be
And if you aint noticed
The kids are fast asleep

(chorus)
And you're one hot mama
You turn me on
Let's turn it up
And turn this room into a sauna
One hot mama
Oh, whatta ya say babe
You wanna?

Well sometimes I know you think
That all you really are
Is the woman with the kids
And the groceries in the car
And you worry about your hips
And you worry about your age
Meanwhile I'm trying to catch
The breath you take away
Oh, and believe me you still do
Baby, all I see
When I look at you is

chorus

[violetgem]

I don't want to write them all, but I am in love with all Ani DiFranco lyrics

[SheepishJaina]

I seem to be listening to this over and over agian laetly

boysetsfire - never surrender

Long night is finally over, silent sounds like a choir
and dead refrains sing out there warning, for the lose of desire
but this could be our greatest moment in this trial of fire
we decide,

It's the pain that we share, lets us know were alive,
while the world goes insane, we just try to survive
are we setting examples or our bidding out time?
Till we die never surrender

trembling arms holding each other, with more yesterdays yet to come
Broken hearts drowned out by anthems of crimes condemned to be strung
but this could be our greatest moment in this trial of fire
we decide,

It's the pain that we share, lets us know were alive,
while the world goes insane, we just try to survive
are we setting examples or our bidding out time?
Till we die never surrender

We've suffered in shadows of the many but still we press on
We've fractured our shoulders we result to rebuild what is gone
You claim victory as we suffer the cost

Time will pass and we will get older, bitterness fades away
Though were strong but, we never would have chosen what we learned on that day
I believe we can't wait till we die...never surrender...never again

It's the pain that we share, lets us know were alive,
while the world goes insane, we just try to survive
are we setting examples or our bidding out time?

It's the pain that we share, lets us know were alive,
while the world goes insane, we just try to survive
are we setting examples or our bidding out time?
Till we die never surrender

Never give in

[RickBulow74]

I have this song in my yahoo station, and when I heard it again, I thought about my time here and how all here have been a real inspiration to me.

"Friends" by Michael W. Smith

Packing up the dreams God planted
In the fertile(sp?) soil of you
I can't believe the hopes He's granted
Mean the chapter in you life is through

BRIDGE:
But we'll keep you close as always
It won't even seen you've gone
'Cause our hearts in big and small ways
Will keep the love that keeps us strong

CHORUS:
And friends are friends forever
If the Lord's the Lord of them
And a friend will not say never
'Cause the welcome will not end
Though it's hard to let you go
In the Father's hands we know
That a lifetime's not too long
To live as friends

And with the faith and love God's given
Springing from the hope we know
We will pray the joy you'll live in
Is the strength that now you show

BRIDGE

CHORUS(2x)

Though it's hard to let you go
In the Father's hands we know
That a lifetime's not too long
To live as friends

Thanks to all the friends I had made, and here is hoping it stays that way.

[frankee]

I feel my wings have broken in your hands
I feel the words unspoken inside
And they pull you under
And I will give you anything you want, oh
You are all I wanted
All my dreams are fallin' down
Crawling around...

Somebody save me
Let your warm hands break right through
Somebody save me
I don't care how you do it
Just stay (stay with me)
Stay
C'mon, I've been waiting for you

I see the world as folded in your heart
I feel the waves crash down inside
And they pull me under
I will give you anything you want, oh
You are all I wanted
All my dreams have fallen down
Crawling around...

Somebody save me
Let your warm hands break right through
Somebody save me
I don't care how you do it
Just stay (stay with me)
Stay
C'mon, I've been waiting for you

All my dreams are on the ground
Crawling around...

Somebody save me
Let your warm hands break right through
Somebody save me
I don't care how you do it
Just stay with me (stay with me)
I made this whole world shine for you
Just stay
Stay
C'mon, I'm still waiting for you

Somebody Save Me-Remy Zero

Everything Changes

If you just walked away
What could I really say?
Would it matter anyway?
Would it change how you feel?

I am the mess you chose
The closet you cannot close,
The devil in you I suppose
'Cause the wounds never heal.

But everything changes
If I could turn back the years
If you could learn to forgive me
Then I could learn to feel,

Sometimes the things I say
In moments of disarray
Succumbing to the games we play
To make sure that it's real.

When it's just me and you.
Who knows what we could do.
If we can just make it through
The toughest part of the day.

Stay here together
And we could
Conquer the world
If we could
Say that forever
Is more than just a word.

If you just walked away
What could I really say?
Would it matter anyway?.
It wouldn't change how you feel.

Huey Lewis and the News - If This Is It (http://www.lyricsfreak.com/h/huey+lewis+and+the+news/if+this+is+it_20066333.html#)

This song says it all in few words. It is better to speak and let somebody know of bad news, than to keep silent and let him fear bad news.

Rod Stewart - No Holding Back (http://www.lyricsfreak.com/r/rod+stewart/no+holding+back_20117615.html)

If it may be worth fighting for, go for it. It is better to try and fail, than to never try. This is true in love just like in any other endeavours you may encounter.

There is one thing much worse than a loser: somebody who never even tried.

Holding Back The Years

Holding back the years,
Thinking of the fear Ive had for so long.
When somebody hears,
Listen to the fear thats gone.
Strangled by the wishes of pater,
Hoping for the arm of mater,
Get to me sooner or later,

Nothing ever could, yeah.
Ill keep holding on,
Ill keep holding on,
Ill keep holding on,
Ill keep holding on.

Chance for me to escape from all I know.
Holding back the tears.
Theres nothing here has grown.
Ive wasted all my tears,
Wasted all those years.
Nothing had the chance to be good,

Nothing ever could, yeah.
Ill keep holding on,

Ill keep holding on,
Ill keep holding on,
Ill keep holding on
So tight.

Forever My Friend

Who am I to tell her
Who am I to play god
Who am I to think I can go it alone
Something tells me girl this is bringing you down
Something tells me this is bringing me down
We've been through some changes
Always seem to hold on
Lately it feel like you can't take anymore
Something tells me girl this is bringing you down
Something tells me girl this is bringing you down
Forever my friend
Forever my love
Forever the woman that I'm thinking of
I just think if we keep our hearts together
Just think if we build on this trust that we have for one another
Baby we can make this last a lifetime
Who am I to tell her
Who am I to play god
I don't know just what's for real anymore
Something tells me girl this is bringing you down
Something tells me girl this is bringing you down
Maybe I'm wrong, maybe I'm right
Maybe it's the last thing you want to hear me say
I just think if we keep out hearts together
I just think if we build on this trust that we have for one another
Maybe we can make this last a lifetime
Forever my friend
Forever my love
Forever the woman
That I'm thinking of
I just think if we keep our hearts together
I just think if we will build on this trust that we have for one another
Maybe we can make this last a lifetime


Gosh, i LOVE this song, so much....so beautiful...:)

[violet girl{MM}]

and while we are referring to the incomparable Ray LaMontagne:

Lesson Learned

Well the truth it fell so heavy
Like a hammer through the room
That I could choose another over her
You always said I was an actor, baby
Guess in truth you thought me just amateur

That you never saw the signs
That you never lost your grip
Oh, come on now
That's such a childish claim
Now I wear the brand of traitor
Don't it seem a bit absurd
When it's clear I was so obviously framed
When it's clear I was so obviously framed

Now you act so surprised
To hear what you already know
And all you really had to do was ask
I'd have told you straight away
All those lies were truth
And all that was false was fact

Now you hold me close and hard
But I was like a statue at most
Refusing to acknowledge you'd been hurt
Now you're clawing at my throat
And you're crying all is lost
But your tears they felt so hot upon my shirt
But your tears they felt so hot upon my shirt

Well the truth it fell so heavy
Like a hammer through the room
That I could choose another over her
You always said I was an actor, baby
Guess in truth you thought me just amateur

Was it you who told me once
Now looking back it seems so real
That all our mistakes are merely grist for the mill
So why is it now after I had my fill
That you steal from me the sorrow that I've earned
Shall we call this a lesson learned?
Shall we call this a lesson learned?

all i can say is wow...this song brought tears to my eyes when i first heard it...Gorgeous!! :)

[violet girl{MM}]

Gosh! i love this thread too much!! Just a couple more that must be here!!

Crash into Me

You've got your ball
you've got your chain
tied to me tight tie me up again
who's got their claws
in you my friend
Into your heart I'll beat again
Sweet like candy to my soul
Sweet you rock
and sweet you roll
Lost for you I'm so lost for you

You come crash into me
And I come into you
I come into you
In a boys dream
In a boys dream

Touch your lips just so I know
In your eyes, love, it glows so
I'm bare boned and crazy for you
When you come crash
into me, baby
And I come into you
In a boys dream
In a boys dream

If I've gone overboard
Then I'm begging you
to forgive me
in my haste
When I'm holding you so girl
close to me

Oh and you come crash
into me, baby
And I come into you
Hike up your skirt a little more
and show the world to me
Hike up your skirt a little more
and show your world to me
In a boys dream.. In a boys dream

Oh I watch you there
through the window
And I stare at you
You wear nothing but you
wear it so well
tied up and twisted
the way I'd like to be
For you, for me, come crash
into me

# 41

Come and see
I swear by now I'm playing time
I against my troubles
I'm coming slow but speeding
Do you wish a dance and while I'm
in the front
the play on time is won
but the difficulty is coming here

I will go in this way
And find my own way out
I wont tell you to stay
But I'm coming to much more
Me
All at once the ghosts come back
Reeling in you now
What if they came down crushing
Remember when I used to play for
all of the loneliness that nobody
notice now
I'm begging slow I'm coming here
Only waiting I wanted to stay
I wanted to play
I wanted to love you

I'm only this far
And only tomorrow leads my way

I'm coming waltzing back and moving into your head
Please, I wouldn't pass this by
I would take any more than
What sort of man goes by
I will bring water
Why wont you ever be glad
It melts into wonder
I came in praying for you
why wont you run
in the rain and play
let the tears splash all over you

Border Song

Holy Moses, I have been removed
I have seen the spectre: he has been here too
Distant cousin from down the line
Brand of people who ain't my kind
Holy Moses, I have been removed

Holy Moses, I have been deceived
Now the wind has changed direction and I'll have to leave
Won't you please excuse my frankness
but it's not my cup of tea
Holy Moses, I have been deceived

I'm going back to the border
Where my affairs, my affairs ain't abused
I can't take any more bad water
I've been poisoned from my head down to my shoes

Holy Moses, I have been deceived

Holy Moses, can we live in peace
Let us strive to find a way
to make all hatred cease
There's a man standing over there
What's his colour? I don't care
He's my brother, let us live in peace
He's my brother, let us live in peace
He's my brother, let us live in peace


Elton John original of 1970 (lyrics Bernie Taupin, who crafted it as a homage to the US civil rights movement). One or two years later Aretha Franklin kind of reclaimed the song, did it as it would have sounded if it were a gospel original. During the war in Lebanon last summer I found myself playing her take over and over.

[violet girl{MM}]

always LOVED this song!

Tears of a Clown

Now if there's a smile on my face
It's only there trying to fool the public
But when it comes down to fooling you
Now honey that's quite a different subject

But don't let my glad expression
Give you the wrong impression
Cos really I'm sad, Oh I'm sadder than sad
Well I'm hurt and I want you so bad
Like a clown I appear to be glad ooh yeah

Well they're some sad things known to man
But ain't too much sadder than
The tears of a clown when there's noone around
Oh yeah, baby baby, oh yeah baby baby

Now if I appear to be carefree
It's only to camouflage my sadness
And honey to shield my pride I try
To cover this hurt with a show of gladness
But don't let my show convince you
That I've been happy since you
Decided to go, oh I need you so
Look I'm hurt and I want you to know
For others I put on a show

Well they're some sad things known to man
But ain't too much sadder than
The tears of a clown when there's noone around
Oh yeah, baby baby, oh yeah baby baby

Just like Pagliacci did
I try to keep my surface hid
Smiling in the crowd I try
But in a lonely room I cry
The tears of a clown
When there's noone around, oh yeah, baby baby
Now if there's a smile on my face
Don't let my glad expression
Give you the wrong impression
Don't let this smile I wear
Make you think that I don't care
Cos really I'm sad...

[wildfire3]

Oh I am so glad I found this thread....I've always got music on my mind...

So this morning in chat Mr. Wonderful mentioned a song with my nick as the title, so of course I had to go looking for it...and I found a bunch! So I'm going to post the lyrics, first to the one that he mentioned, and second to the one that I liked the best! Anyway, just my 2 cents...

Wildfire
Artist:Michael Martin Murphy

She comes down from Yellow Mountain
On a dark, flat land she rides
On a pony she named Wildfire
With a whirlwind by her side
On a cold Nebraska night
Oh, they say she died one winter
When there came a killing frost
And the pony she named Wildfire
Busted down its stall
In a blizzard he was lost
She ran calling Wildfire [x3]
By the dark of the moon I planted
But there came an early snow
There's been a hoot-owl howling 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
We'll be riding Wildfire [x3]
On Wildfire we're gonna ride
Gonna leave sodbustin' behind
Get these hard times right on out of our minds
Riding Wildfire


Wildfire
Artist: P.O.D.
Album: Payable on Death

Come and give me that wildfire
The uncivilized sound that I love
The primitive ragga blaze style
Consciousness vibes I and I know
The untamed flame that I desire
Me want uncultivated Jah glow
Foolish intensity, versatile
Fly the spirit high, take me higher
[Chorus:]
One leads with the passion
The righteous will burn again
One bleeds everlasting
Tribal fire will never end
[repeat]
I want to feel that wildfire
Irregular burning of the sun
Shining through make you spit fire
Savage combustion, let it go
Impetuous fervor testifier
Outlandish passions I know
Crucial rhythms no denial
Musical nation, empire
[Chorus]
[repeat chorus]

[violet girl{MM}]

America

let us be lovers well marry our fortunes together
Ive got some real estate here in my bag
So we bought a pack of cigarettes and mrs. wagner pies
And we walked off to look for america
kathy, I said as we boarded a greyhound in pittsburgh
michigan seems like a dream to me now
It took me four days to hitchhike from saginaw
Ive gone to look for america

Laughing on the bus
Playing games with the faces
She said the man in the gabardine suit was a spy
I said be careful his bowtie is really a camera

toss me a cigarette, I think theres one in my raincoat
we smoked the last one an hour ago
So I looked at the scenery, she read her magazine
And the moon rose over an open field

kathy, Im lost, I said, though I knew she was sleeping
Im empty and aching and I dont know why
Counting the cars on the new jersey turnpike :)
Theyve all gone to look for america
All gone to look for america
All gone to look for america

Nightingale

Nightingale
Sing us a song
Of a love that once belonged

Nightingale
Tell me your tale
Was your journey far too long?

Does it seem like I'm looking for an answer
To a question I can't ask
I don't know which way the feather falls
Or if i should blow it to the left

All the voices that are spinnin' around me
Trying to tell me what to say
Can I fly right behind you
And you can take me away

[violet girl{MM}]

Violet ;)
And the sky was made of amethyst
And all the stars look just like little fish
You should learn when to go
You should learn how to say no

Might last a day yeah
Mine is forever
Might last a day, yeah
Well mine is forever

When they get what they want they never want it again
When they get what they want they never want it again

Go on, take everything, take everything I want you to
Go on, take everything take everything take everything I want you to

And the sky was all violet I want it again, but more violet, more violet
Hey, Im the one with no soul
One above and one below

Go on, take everything take everything I want you to
Go on, take everything take everything I want you to

I told you from the start just how this would end
When I get what I want I never want it again

Go on, take everything take everyting I want you to
Go on, take everything, take everything I want you to
Go on, take everything, take everything I want you to
Go on, take everything, take everything I want you to
Go on take everything take everything take everything take everything

Vincent

Starry, starry night
Paint your palette blue and gray
Look out on a summer's day
With eyes that know the darkness in my soul
Shadows on the hills
Sketch the trees and the daffodils
Catch the breeze and the winter chills
In colors on the snowy linen land
Now I understand what you tried to say to me
And how you suffered for your sanity
How you tried to set them free
They would not listen, they did not know how
Perhaps they'll listen now
Starry, starry night
Flaming flowers that brightly blaze
Swirling clouds in violet haze
Reflect in Vincent's eyes of china blue
Colors changing hue
Morning fields of amber grain
Weathered faces lined in pain
Are soothed beneath the artist's loving hand
Now I understand what you tried to say to me
And how you suffered for your sanity
And how you tried to set them free
They would not listen, they did not know how
Perhaps they'll listen now
For they could not love you
But still your love was true
And when no hope was left inside
On that starry, starry night
You took your life as lovers often do
But I could have told you, Vincent
This world was never meant
For one as beautiful as you
Starry, starry night
Portraits hung in empty halls
Frameless heads on nameless walls
With eyes that watch the world and can't forget
Like the strangers that you've met
The ragged men in ragged clothes
A silver thorn, a bloody rose
Lie crushed and broken on the virgin snow
Now I think I know what you tried to say to me
And how you suffered for your sanity
And how you tried to set them free
They would not listen, they're not listening still
Perhaps they never will...

Don McLean

Women :D

In the beginning, God made the land
Then he made the water and creatures, then he made man
He was born with a passion, love and hate
A restless spirit with a need for a mate
But there was somethin missin, somethin lost
So he came with the answer, heres what it cost
One part love, one part wild
One part lady, one part child

I give you
(women! women!)
Lots of pretty women
(men! men!)
They cant live without them
(women! women!)
Lots of pretty women
(men! men!)
They cant live without them

And in the garden, lust began
The animal instinct, the wanton man
She fed him with a hunger, an appetite
And fillin with emotion he took a bite
It was one part love, one part child
One part lover, one part wild

Skin on skin
Let the love begin
Women!

It was one part love, one part wild
One part lover, one part child
A whole lotta fire, a little bit of ice
A whole lotta somethin you cant sacrifice
I give you
Hair, eyes, skin on skin
(legs) legs
(thighs) thighs
Whats that spell?
(spell? whats that spell? )
((whats that spell? ))
Whats that spell?
((whats that spell? ))
(women, women)
Oh! oh! oh!
Oh! oh! oh!
(women) women
(women) callin every girl
(women women) all around the world
(women) women!
(women) oh, we cant live without them
(women women)

Unforgiven II - Metallica

Lay beside me, tell me what they've done
Speak the words I wanna hear, to make my demons run
The door is locked now, but it's open if you're true
If you can understand the me, than I can understand the you

Lay beside me, under wicked sky
The black of day, dark of night, we share this paralyze
The door cracks open, but there's no sun shining through
Black heart scarring darker still, but there's no sun shining through
No, there's no sun shining through
No, there's no sun shining...

What I've felt, what I've known
Turn the pages, turn the stone
Behind the door, should I open it for you....

What I've felt, what I've known
Sick and tired, I stand alone
Could you be there, 'cause I'm the one who waits for you
Or are you unforgiven too?

Lay beside me, this won't hurt I swear
She loves me not, she loves me still, but she'll never love again
She lay beside me, But she'll be there when I'm gone
Black heart scarring darker still, yes she'll be there when I'm gone
Yes, she'll be there when I'm gone
Dead sure she'll be there...

What I've felt, what I've known
Turn the pages, turn the stone
Behind the door, should I open it for you....

What I've felt, what I've known
Sick and tired, I stand alone
Could you be there, 'cause I'm the one who waits for you
Or are you unforgiven too?

Lay beside me, tell me what I've done
The door is closed, so are you're eyes
But now I see the sun, now I see the sun
Yes now I see it

What I've felt, what I've known
Turn the pages, turn the stone
Behind the door, should I open it for you....

What I've felt, what I've known
Sick and tired, I stand alone
Could you be there, 'cause I'm the one who waits,
The one who waits for you....

Oh what I've felt, what I've known
Turn the pages, turn the stone
Behind the door, should I open it for you.... (So I dub thee
unforgiven....)

Oh, what I've felt....
Oh, what I've known....

I take this key (never free...)
And I bury it (never me...) in you
Because you're unforgiven too....

Never free....
Never me....
'Cause you're unforgiven too....
Oh

Figured You Out - Nickelback


I like your pants around your feet
I like the dirt that's on your knees
And I like the way you still say please
While you're looking up at me
You're like my favourite damn disease

And I love the places that we go
And I love the people that you know
And I love the way you can't say no
Too many long lines in a row
I love the powder on your nose

Ooooh
And now I know who you are
It wasn't that hard
Just to figure you out
And now I know who you are
It wasn't that hard
Just to figure you out

I like the freckles on your chest
And I like the way you like me best
And I like the way you're not impressed,
While you put me to the test
I like the wine stains on your dress

And I love the way you pass the check
And I love the good times that you wreck
And I love your lack of self respect
While you're passed out on the deck
I love my hands around your neck

And now I know who you are
It wasn't that hard
Just to figure you out
And now I know who you are
It wasn't that hard
Just to figure you out

I love your pants around your feet
And I love the dirt that's on your knees
And I like the way you still say please
While you're looking up at me
You're like my favourite damn disease

And I hate the places that we go
And I hate the people that you know
And I hate the way you can't say no
Too many long lines in a row
I hate the powder on your nose

And now I know who you are
It wasn't that hard
Just to figure you out
And now I know who you are
It wasn't that hard
Just to figure you out

Anthem

from the musical Chess

[THE RUSSIAN]
No man, no madness
Though their sad power may prevail
Can possess, conquer, my country's heart
They rise to fail
She is eternal
Long before nations' lines were drawn
When no flags flew, when no armies stood
My land was born

And you ask me why I love her
Through wars, death and despair
She is the constant
We who don't care
And you wonder will I leave her -- but how?
I cross over borders but I'm still there now

How can I leave her?
Where would I start?
Let man's petty nations tear themselves apart
My land's only borders lie around my heart

[mkemse]

(In Memory Of My Late Girl Friend Who I Wiil Always Love & Miss)

Honey ~ Bobby Goldberg


See the tree, how big it's grown
But friend it hasn't been too long
It wasn't big
I laughed at her and she got mad
The first day that she planted it, was just a twig
Then the first snow came
And she ran out to brush the snow away
So it wouldn't die
Came runnin' in all excited
Slipped and almost hurt herself
And I laughed till I cried
She was always young at heart
Kinda dumb and kinda smart and I loved her so
And I surprised her with a puppy
Kept me up all Christmas Eve two years ago
And it would sure embarrass her
When I came in from workin' late
'Cause I would know
That she'd been sittin' there and cryin'
Over some sad and silly late, late show

And honey, I miss you
And I'm bein' good
And I'd love to be with you
If only I could

She wrecked the car and she was sad
And so afraid that I'd be mad
But what the heck
Though I pretended hard to be
Guess you could say she saw through me
And hugged my neck
I came home unexpectedly
And caught her cryin' needlessly
In the middle of the day
And it was in the early Spring
When flowers bloom and robins sing
She went away

And honey, I miss you
And I'm bein' good
And I'd love to be with you
If only I could

One day while I was not at home
While she was there and all alone
The angels came
Now all I have is memories of Honey
And I wake up nights and call her name
Now my life's an empty stage
Where Honey lived and Honey played
And love grew up
And a small cloud passes overhead
And cries down on the flower bed
That Honey loved

And see the tree how big it's grown
But friend it hasn't been too long
It wasn't big
And I laughed at her and she got mad
The first day that she planted it, was just a twig

Silent All These Years

Excuse me but can I be you for a while
My dog wont bite if you sit real still
I got the anti-christ in the kitchen yellin at me again
Yeah I can hear that

Been saved again by the garbage truck
I got something to say you know but nothing comes
Yes I know what you think of me- you never shut up
Yeah I can hear that

But what if Im a mermaid
In these jeans of his with her name still on it
Hey but I dont care cause sometimes, I said sometimes
I hear my voice and its been here
Silent all these years

So you found a girl who thinks really deep thoughts
Whats so amazing about really deep thoughts
Boy you best pray that I bleed real soon
Hows that thought for ya

My scream got lost in a paper cup
You think theres a heaven where some screams have gone
I got 25 bucks and a cracker, go you think its enough
To get us there

Cause what if Im a mermaid
In these jeans of his with her name still on it
Hey but I dont care cause sometimes, I said sometimes
I hear my voice and its been here
Silent all these years

Years go by will I still be waiting
For somebody else to understand
Years go by if Im stripped of my beauty
And the orange cloud raining in my head
Years go by will I choke on my tears
Till finally there is nothing left
One more casualty
You know were too easy easy easy

Well I love the way we communicate
Your eyes focus on my funny lip shade
Lets hear what you think of me now but baby dont look up
The sky is falling

Your mother shows up in a nasty dress
Its your turn now to stand where I stand
Everybody lookin at you, here take a hold of my hand
Yeah I can hear them

But what if Im a mermaid
In these jeans of his with her name still on it
Hey but I dont care cause sometimes, I said sometimes
I hear my voice
I hear my voice
I hear my voice
And its been here
Silent all these years
Ive been here
Silent all these years

Amber Waves

Well he lit you up
Like amber waves in his movie show
He fixed you up real good
Till I dont know you anymore
From ballet class to a lap dance
Straight to video
And the pool side news
Was that he would be
Launching you

Chorus:
Into every young mans
Bedroom - you gave it up
On dvd and magazine-
You gave it up
A private rite of passage
You gave it up
To every boys sweet dream
With their paper cuts

You said hes got a
Healing machine
It glows in the dark
Glows in the dark:
You say theres not a lot
Of me
Left anymore-
Just leave it alone.
But if youre buy, and you have
The time, tell the northern
Lights to keep shining - lately it seems like theyre drowning

He cold light you up
And summon every swan
Or the lakesie
Off to cabo san lucas
For some optical stimulus
Then you started to guess
Ther was someone else
Though his flint glass
Seeing all of you
Immersed in his sepia

Into every young mans
Bedroom - you gave it up
On dvd and magazine-
You gave it up
A private rite of passage
You gave it up
To every boys sweet dream
With their paper cuts

You said hes got a
Healing machine
It glows in the dark
Glows in the dark:
You say theres not a lot
Of me
Left anymore-
Just leave it alone.
But if youre buy, and you have
The time, tell the northern
Lights to keep shining - lately it seems like theyre drowning

So I went by -
Cause I had the time,
And told the northern lights
To keep shining
They told me to tell you -
Theyre waving

Carbon

Carbon made
Found her at the
End of a chain
Time to race she said
Race the downhill
Behind crystaline irises
Loons can dive
Where the world bleeds white

Just keep your eyes on her
Keep dont look away
Keep your eyes on her horizon

Bear claw
Free fall
A gunners view
Black and blue
Shred in ribbons
Of lithium
Blow by blow
Her mind cut
In sheets
Layers deep
Now unravelling

Just keep your eyes on her
Keep dont look away
Keep your eyes on her horizon

Get me neil on the line
No I cant hold
Have him read
Snow glass apples
Where nothing is what it seems
Little sis you must crack this
He says to me
You must go in again
Carbon made
Only wants to be unmade
Blade to ice
Its double diamond time

And keep your eyes on her...

On her eyes
On her horizon

For you to follow your heart
And not need more blood
From the tip of your star

Witness

Thought I had a witness to this crime
Thought I had a witness
Thought we were on the same side of becoming
Then the judges called in a witness C'mon...

So then when did you then begin your cravin for white powder
Exotic matter that cells divide arresting time

So in your furnace then
You drank my tenderness
Feldspar and Mica then
You thought that you would own my temple of gold

Gotta rise in the night
Pick myself off the floor
I know now that it's over
Had a life before
You left me burnin' in
Your petrol emotion
Your petrol emotion
Wanting more

Thought I had a witness C'mon...
Thought we had a friendship C'mon...
Thought I heard you whispering murder
Thought this witches brew was more than bullet-proof
But words are like guns when you shoot the moon
'Cause everybody whispers C'mon...

Is there anyone? Is it any wonder...I'm out the door

Is there any way? Is there any way forward?
Thought I had a witness
Thought you were you
Thought I was a witness
You could turn to, not in

Thought I had a witness to this crime
Thought I had a witness C'mon...

Fix You

When you try your best, but you don't succeed
When you get what you want, but not what you need
When you feel so tired, but you can't sleep
Stuck in reverse
When the tears come streaming down your face
When you lose something you can't replace
When you love someone, but it goes to waste
Could it be worse?

Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you

High up above or down below
When you're too in love to let it go
If you never try you'll never know
Just what you're worth

Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you

Tears stream down your face
When you lose something you cannot replace
Tears stream down your face
And I...

Tears stream down on your face
I promise you I will learn from the mistakes
Tears stream down your face
And I...

Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you

Amsterdam

Come on, my star is fading
And I swerve out of control
If I, if I'd only waited
I'd not be stuck here in this hole
Come here my star is fading
And I swerve out of control
And I swear I waited and waited
I've got to get out of this hole

But time is on your side
It's on your side now
Not pushing you down and all around
It's no cause for concern

Come on, oh my star is fading
And I see no chance of release
And I know I'm dead on the surface
But I am screaming underneath

And time is on your side
It's on your side now
Not pushing you down
And all around, no
It's no cause for concern

Stuck on the end of this ball and chain
And I'm on my way back down again
Stood on a bridge, tied to the noose
Sick to the stomach
You can say what you mean
But it wont change a thing
I'm sick of the secrets
Stood on the edge, tied to a noose
You came along and you cut me loose
You came along and you cut me loose
You came along and you cut me loose.

A Rush of Blood to the Head

He said, "I'm gonna buy this place, and burn it down,
I'm gonna put it six feet underground"
He said, "I'm gonna buy this place, and watch it fall...
Stand here beside me, Baby, in the crumbling walls."
"Oh, I'm gonna buy this place, and start a fire
Stand here until I fill all your hearts desires
Because I'm gonna buy this place, and see it burn
Do back the things it did to you in return...."
Ah,ah,ah
He said, "Oh I'm gonna buy a gun, and start a war
If you can tell me something worth fighting for."
"Oh, and I'm gonna buy this place, that's what I said
Blame it upon a rush of blood to the head..."

And Honey,
All the movements you're starting to make
See me crumble and fall on my face
And, I know the mistakes that I made
See it all disappear without a trace
And they call as they beckon you on
They say start as you mean to go on....
Start as you mean to go on

He said, "I'm gonna buy this place and see it go
Stand here beside me, Baby, watch the orange glow."
Some'll laugh, and some just sit and cry
But you just sit down there and you wonder why?"
"So, I'm gonna buy a gun and start a war
If you can tell me something worth fighting for?"
"I'm gonna buy this place, that's what I said
Blame it upon a rush of blood to the head!"

And Honey
All the movements you're starting to make
See me crumble and fall on my face
And I know the mistakes that I made
See it all disappear without a trace
And they call as they beckon you on
They said start as you mean to go on...
As you mean to go on, as you mean to go on

So meet me by the bridge, meet me by the lane
When am I going to see that pretty face again?
Meet me on the road, meet me where I said
Blame it all upon
A rush of blood to the head...

God Put A Smile Upon Your Face

Where do we go nobody knows?
I've gotta say I'm on my way down
God give me style and give me grace
God put a smile upon my face

Where do we go to draw the line?
I've gotta say I wasted all your time, honey honey
Where do I go to fall from grace?
God put a smile upon your face
Yeah
And ah
When you work it out I'm worse than you
Yeah
When you work it out I wanted to
And ah
When you work out where to draw the line
Your guess is as good as mine

Where do we go nobody knows?
Don't ever say you're on your way down when
God gave you style and gave you grace
God put a smile upon your face

And ah
When you work it out I'm worse than you
Yeah
When you work it out I wanted to
And ah
When you work out where to draw the line
Your guess is as good as mine
Its as good as mine
Its as good as mine
Its as good as mine
As good as mine
As good as mine
As good as mine
As good as mine

Where do we go nobody knows?
Dont ever say you're on your way down when
God gave you style and gave you grace
God put a smile upon your face

A Warning Sign

A warning sign
I missed the good part then I realized
I started looking and the bubble burst
I started looking for excuses
Come on in, I've gotta tell you what a state I'm in
I've gotta tell you in my loudest tones
That I started looking for a warning sign
When the truth is
I miss you
Yeah the truth is
That I miss you so

A warning sign
You came back to haunt me and I realized
That you were an island and I passed you by
And you were an island to discover
Come on in, I've gotta tell you what a state I'm in
I've gotta tell you in my loudest tones
That I started looking for a warning sign

And the truth is
I miss you
Yeah the truth is
I miss you so
And I'm tired
I should not have let you go

So I crawl back into your open arms
Yes I crawl back into your open arms
And I crawl back into your open arms
Yes I crawl back into yo
