You know a dream is like a river
Ever changing as it flows
And the dreamer's just the vessel
That must follow where it goes
Trying to learn from what's behind you
And never knowing what's in store
Makes each day a constant battle
Just to stay between the shores.
And I will sail my vessel
'Til The River runs dry
Like a bird upon the wind
These waters are my sky
I'll never reach my destination
If I never try
So I will sail my vessel
'Til The River runs dry.

Come sail away with me

In the arms of the angel

I have hours, only lonely
My love is vengeance

You fill up my senses,like a night in the forest. Like the mountains in springtime,like a walk in the rain. Like a storm in the desert,like a sleepy blue ocean. You fill up my senses,come fill me again. John Denver
The remedy is the experience. It is a dangerous liaison
I say the comedy is that its serious. Which is a strange enough new play on words
I say the tragedy is how you're gonna spend the rest of your nights with the light on
So shine the light on all of your friends because it all amounts to nothing in the end.
I won't worry my life away.
I won't worry my life away.

Stick Figure
She can kill with a smile, she can wound with her eyes
She can ruin your faith with her casual lies
And she only reveals what she wants you to see
She hides like a child but she's always a woman to me
She can lead you to love, she can take you or leave you
She can ask for the truth but she'll never believe you
And she'll take what you give her as long as it's free
Yeah she steals like a thief but she's always a woman to me
~ Billy Joel
And I find most of the time
I miss the way your body coils round mine
Slope of your shoulders, the curve of your spine
Because you are a woman

Helen Reddy
I am woman, hear me roar
In numbers too big to ignore
And I know too much to go back an' pretend
'Cause I've heard it all before
And I've been down there on the floor
No one's ever gonna keep me down again
'Cause, honey, your soul could never grow old, it's evergreen
And, baby, your smile's forever in my mind and memory
I'm thinking 'bout how people fall in love in mysterious ways
Maybe it's all part of a plan
Well, I'll just keep on making the same mistakes
Hoping that you'll understand
Ed Sheeran
Barbra Streisand
Love soft as an easy chair
Love fresh as the morning air
One love that is shared by two
I have found with you

They get so excited
Waking up on Christmas morning
Hours before the winter sun's ignited

Don The Lovin' Spoonful
Hot town, summer in the city
Back of my neck getting dirty and gritty
Been down, isn't it a pity
Doesn't seem to be a shadow in the city
In my dirty 'ole hat
With my crooked little grin
Granny beaded neck
And these calloused hands
And a muddy pair of jeans
With that Copenhagen ring
No need to change a thing, hey y'all
I'm going out with my boots on
Randy Houser

Smile though your heart is aching
Smile even though it's breaking
When there are clouds in the sky, you'll get by
If you smile through your fear and sorrow
when you're feeling sad, tired of being blue

start sweeping the clouds causing the glolm
sweep away your troubles with a new broom

And I won't put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be...

Would you like to ride in my beautiful balloon
Would you like to ride in my beautiful balloon
We could float among the stars together, you and I

And I cried like I cried for you
And balloon man blew up in my hand

And it calls out my name
It calls out for a change

Sometimes I'd like to quit
Nothin' ever seems to fit
Hangin' around
Nothin' to do but frown

On the wings of a nightingale.

Never again, isn't that what you said?
You've been through this before
An' you swore this time you'd think with your head
No one, would ever have you again
And if taking was gonna get done
You'd decide where and when
Just when you think you got it down
Your heart securely tied and bound
They whisper, promises in the dark

idk, i just like it
When the night has been too lonely
And the road has been too long.
And you think that love is only
For the lucky and the strong.
Just remember in the winter
Far beneath the bitter snows
Lies the seed that with the sun's love
In the spring becomes the rose.

Somewhere over the Rainbow
Skies are Blue
And the dreams that you dream really do come true
Judy Garland
Every night,I'm lying in bed,holding you close in my dreams. Thinking about all the things that we said,and coming apart at the seams. We tried to talk it over, but the words came out too rough. I know you were trying to give me the best of your love. The Eagles
Out of the darkness, into the light
Leaving the scene of the crime
Either I'm wrong or I'm perfectly right every time
Sometimes I lie awake, night after night
Coming apart at the seams
Eager to please, ready to fight
Why do I go to extremes?

Forgive, forget. Where's the love we once knew?

To face the world out on my own again
You put me high upon a pedestal
So high that I could almost see eternity
You needed me, you needed me

Bright and early for their daily races
Going nowhere, going nowhere

And all the faces that I know
Have that same familiar glow.
I think I must've known then somewhere once before
All the faces that I know.

Why do fools fall in love?
Why do birds sing so gay?
And lovers await the break of day
Why do they fall in love?
Why do birds suddenly appear,every time you are near?Just like me,they long to be close to you.Why do stars fall down down from the sky,every time you walk by? Just like me ,they long to be close to you. The Carpenters

I don't know where I'm running now, I'm just running on
Rows and floes of angel hair
And ice cream castles in the air
And feathered canyons evreywhere
I've looked at clouds that way
But now they only block the sun
They rain and snow on everyone
So many things I would have done
But clouds got in my way
I've looked at clouds from both sides now
From up and down and still somehow
It's clouds illusions I recall
I really don't know clouds at all
Joni Mitchell
And if she asks you why, you may tell her that I told you
That I'm tired of castles in the air
I've got a dream I want the world to share
And castle walls just lead me to despair
Don McLean
Don't let it bring you down
It's only castles burning,
Find someone who's turning
And you will come around.
Neil Young

Tonight tonight it all began tonight
I saw you and the world went away
Tonight tonight there's only you tonight
What you are what you do what you say
Today all day I had the feeling a miracle would happen
I know now I was right
For here you are and what was just a world is a star

Don't you ever feel sad
Lean on me when times are bad
When the day comes and you're down
In a river of trouble and about to drown
Just hold on, I'm comin'
I miss the pull of your heart
I taste the sparks on your tongue
I see angels and devils
And God, when you come on
Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on

Writing love letters in the sand
Pat Boone
Circle in the sand, round and round
Everlasting love is what we've found
Belinda Carlisle
The sands of time are sinking,the dawn of heaven breaks. The summer morn I've sighed for,the fair sweet morn awakes. Dark,dark has been the midnight, but dayspring is at hand. And glory,glory dwelleth,in Emanuel's land. A beloved hymn
She got mad, she said,
"You're too steep"
Puts on her boxing gloves
And went to sleep
When I see the glory
I ain't gotta worry (2x)

Cause it's a mad mad love
Mad mad love
Mad mad love
Can't help falling now
Falling into mad love
Linda Ronstadt
Falling in love again what am I to do
Never wanted to I can't help it
Love's always been my game play it how I may
I was made that way can't help it
Men cluster to me like moths around a flame
And if their wings burn I know I'm not to blame
Falling in love again never wanted to
What am I to do can't help it
Marlene Dietrich
Wise men say only fools rush in
But I can't help

Every time I see your face
My heart takes off on a high speed chase
Now don't be scared, it's only love
Baby, that we're falling in
Every time I see your face
It reminds me of the places we used to go
But all I've got is a photograph
And I realize you're not coming back anymore
Ringo Starr
We keep this love in a photograph
We made these memories for ourselves
Where our eyes are never closing
Hearts are never broken
And time's forever frozen still

If you think you need a woman like me, you got to hold on
If you want to find what I've got on my mind, baby, hold on
All this small talk that keeps us apart
Is only hiding how we feel in our hearts
If you think you need a woman like me, you got to hold on
If you want to keep a woman like me, then, baby, hold on
Rosanne Cash
Helen Reddy
I am woman, hear me roar
In numbers too big to ignore
And I know too much to go back an' pretend

Sometimes looks can be deceiving when you¹re quietly over-achieving
Oh, sometimes it takes balls to be a woman

Hello darkness, my old friend
I've come to talk with you again
Because a vision softly creeping
Left its seeds while I was sleeping
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains
Within the sound of silence
Simon & Garfunkel
Time here,
all but means nothing, just shadows that move across the wall
They keep me company, but they don't ask of me
they don't say nothing at all.
And I need just a little more silence
And I need just a little more time

Somewhere over the rainbow
Way up high
And the dreams that you dream of
Once in a lullaby
Judy Garland
I dreamed a dream in times gone by
When hope was high and life worth living
I dreamed that love would never die
I dreamed that God would be forgiving
Then I was young and unafraid
And dreams were made and used and wasted
There was no ransom to be paid
No song unsung no wine untasted...
Les Miserables
And every day I dream
Of holding you close to me
And every night I find
Me touching your lips with mine
Naahh ooooh, oh babe

Still got whiskey on your lips
You still got neon in your eyes
I trace the skin outside your hips

Crystal Gayle
Now I see you standing with brown leaves all around and snow in your hair

Standing in the shadows of love

I just called to say...I love you
And I mean it from the bottom of my heart
Stevie Wonder
So far away
Doesn't anybody stay in one place anymore?
It would be so fine to see your face at my door

Long ago I reached for you and there you stood
Holding you again could only do me good
Oh how I wish I could but you're so far away

You're my soul and my heart's inspiration

You don't bring me flowers
You don't sing me love songs
You hardly talk to me anymore

It's been a lovely day
And it's okay

Paul McCartney
You'd think that people would have had enough of silly love songs
I look around me and I see it isn't so
Some people want to fill the world with silly love songs
If someone else is suffering enough, oh, to write it down
When every single word makes sense
Then it's easier to have those songs around.

Do you remember it, babe?

Memories won't go, memories won't go
UB40
Memories light the corner of my mind
Misty water- colored memories of the way we were
Scattered pictures of the smiles we left behind
Smiles we gave to one another for the way we were
Can it be it was all so simple then?
Or has time rewritten every line?
If we had the chance to do it all again
Tell me would we? Could we?
Barbra Streisand
I can't change the world

The world is a circle without a beginning
And nobody knows where it really ends
Everything depends where you
Are in the circle that never begins
Nobody knows where the circle ends
And just because you think you're small
That doesn't mean you're small at all

So day by day, I will move on
Can't stop now, it's been too long

Live my life, no regrets
Day by day, I will keep movin' on, day by day

Johnny Nash
I can see clearly now, the rain is gone,
I can see all obstacles in my way
Gone are the dark clouds that had me blind
you see it your way and I see it mine
now we don't know just where to draw the line
how can love survive if we keep choosing sides
and who picks up the pieces every time two fools collide
Kenny rodgers and dotty west
mac Truly, truly for the first time in my life
I can't see the clouds, I can't see the doubts
Truly, truly for the first time in my life
I can sing a song of you being my wife

I would climb any mountain
Sail across the stormy sea
If that's what it takes me baby
To show how much you mean to me
And I guess that it's just the woman in you
That brings out the man in me
I know I can't help myself
You're all in the world to me
It feels like the first time
Foreigner
What do I have to do
To prove my love to you
I'd do anything
I'd do it all
I'd do it all for you
I'd climb a mountain
I'd cross the ocean
I'd do it it all
To prove my love to you

I want you to come on, come on, come on, come on and take it,

Oh, oh, have a!
Have another little piece of my heart now, baby,
You know you got it if it makes you feel good,
Oh, yes indeed.

To the sound of the beat
Another one bites the dust
Queen
And in the Bay of Pigs in 1961,

For Castro is a color,
Is a redder than red,
Those Washington bullets want Castro dead
For Castro is the color...

Trapped inside the tube

'cause he's got more than you

Three things I pray
To see Thee more clearly
Love Thee more dearly
Follow Thee more nearly

Steven Schwartz (Godspell)
Every day she takes a morning bath she wets her hair
Wraps a towel around her as she's heading for the bedroom chair
It's just another day
Slipping into stockings, stepping into shoes
Dipping in the pocket of her raincoat
It's just another day
At the office where the papers grow she takes a break
Drinks another coffe and she finds it hard to stay awake
It's just another day
Another Day

I've come to talk with you again
Because a vision softly creeping
Left its seeds while I was sleeping
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains

Here's the thing
You're in love with a version of a person
That you've created in your head
That you are trying to but cannot fix
In my head, I play a supercut of us

All the love we had and lost
And in my head
The visions never stop
These ribbons wrap me up
But when I reach for you
There's just a supercut

It was a beautiful letdown,when I crashed and burned. When I found myself alone unknown and hurt. It was a beautiful letdown,the day I knew,that all the riches this world had to offer would never do. In a world full of bitter pain and bitter doubts. I was trying so hard to fit in until I found out, That I don't belong here,I don't belong. I will carry a cross and a song where I don't belong. It was a beautiful letdown,when You found me here,yeah,for once in a rare blue moon I see everything clear. I'll be a beautiful letdown,that's what I'll forever be.

I would say I'm sorry
If I thought that it would change your mind
But I know that this time

I try to laugh about it
Hiding the tears in my eyes
'Cause boys don't cry
Boys don't cry

Why there are heartaches
Why there are tears
And what to do to stop feeling blue
When love disappears
I know all there is to know

Of the crying game

I was all right for awhile
I could smile for awhile

Crying over you

When we walk with the Lord,in the light of His word,what a glory He sheds on our way.While we do His good will, He abides with us still.And with all who will trust and obey. Trust and obey,for there's no other way,to be happy in Jesus,but to trust and obey The Trinity Hymnal

On the back streets of this town
I did not have no road map

The Dubliners
Before this dance is through
I think I'll love you, too

'Cause I'm happy just to dance with you
I'm Happy Just To Dance With You

Drink your little drink
While I dance the night away

Have always run this town

They say that there are not the best of times
But there the only times I've ever known
And I believe there is a time for meditation
In cathedrals of our own
Now I have seen that sad surrender in my lovers eyes
And I can only stand apart and sympathize
For we are always what our situations hand us
It's either sadness or euphoria...
"Summer, Highland Falls"
Billy Joel
Situation Number one
Its the one that's just begun
But evidently its too late
Situation Number two
Its the only chance for you
It's controlled by denizens of hate
Situation Number three
It's the one that no one sees
All too often dismissed as fate
Situation Number four
The one that left you wanting more
Tantalized you with its bait

Sometimes late at night
I lie awake and watch her sleeping
She's lost in peaceful dreams
So I turn out the lights and lay there in the dark

Would she ever doubt the way I feel
About her in my heart
Well, you woke up this morning
Got yourself a gun

And the rain
To quietly pass me by

Sun is shinin' in the sky
There ain't a cloud in sight
It's stopped rainin' everybody's in the play
And don't you know
It's a beautiful new day, hey hey
Runnin' down the avenue
See how the sun shines brightly in the city
On the streets where once was pity
Mr. Blue Sky is living here today, hey hey
Mr. Blue Sky
Electric Light Orchestra
Blue Moon, you saw me standing alone
Without a dream in my heart
Without a love of my own
the Marcels
The dream police
They live inside of my head
The dream police
They come to me in my bed
The dream police
They're coming to arrest me
Oh no
You know that talk is cheap
And rumors ain't nice
And when I fall asleep
I don't think I'll survive
The night the night
Cheap Trick
Society heartless, some things need to address
The system so stink and leave this place in a mess
Man cuff we dream and place it under arrest
Mi woulda like fi see what you have under you chest

Dream On
Aerosmith
Yeah, sing with me, sing for the year
Sing for the laughter, sing for the tear
Sing with me, just for today
Maybe tomorrow, the good Lord will take you away
Dream on
You hear laughter
Cracking through the walls
It sends you spinning
You have no choice
Following the footsteps
Of a rag doll dance
We are entranced
Spellbound
Siouxsie and the Banshees
We were children in the garden
Where the flowers kiss the sky
And the birds sang out and wonder
As the day went sailing by
We were spellbound
Spellbound
Ohh spellbound
Spellbound
Ohh
Robin Trower
I come to the garden alone..while the dew is still on the roses
And the voice I hear...softly in my ear. The Son of God discloses
And He walks with me and He talks with me..and He tells me I am his own
And the voice I hear...falling on my ear...None other...has ever known..
Methodist Hymnal..
I went to a garden party
To reminisce with my old friends
Chance to share old memories
Play those songs again

To ban out Jah garden is a mistake

We're running with the shadows of the night
So baby take my hand, you'll be all right
Surrender all your dreams to me tonight
They'll come true in the end
Light night flight L A X
Limousine, and you're all set
For sunset for sunset
Riot house a penthouse suite
The street's alive below your feet
On sunset on sunset
Rainbow girl, whiskey man
Spotting every star they can
On sunset on sunset
Rock an' roll every night
Underneath them neon signs
On sunset on sunset
Sunset people, doin' it right night after night
Donna Summer
Neon signs a flashin'
Taxi cabs and busses passin' through the night
The distant moanin' of a train
Seems to play a sad refrain to the night

In the crisp night sky
Where the air might sting and bring the reasons why

The Lovin' Spoonful
Hot town, summer in the city
Back of my neck getting dirty and gritty
Been down, isn't it a pity
Doesn't seem to be a shadow in the city
Don't be afraid to stand in the shadow of love
The hour is late and you know that time waits for no-one
See the glow of the soul in her face
Then you know that you're caught in the shadow of love
A brief embrace and fear and restraint have all gone
Innocence burns yes a fire that burned all along
The Damned
I'm not a shadow
I'm not the ground beneath your feet
'Cause I'm not a shadow
When you look down, you won't see me
I'll stand up and I'll stand tall, I don't follow anyone
I'm not a shadow, 'cause I'm not a shadow
SOJA
I'm still standing, better than I ever did
Looking like a true survivor
Feeling like a little kid

Standing on the corner, suitcase in my hand

Jane you say it's all over for you and me girl
there's a time for love and a time for letting it be baby
jane you're playing a game called, called hard to get by it's real name,
Have you walked in a garden where nothing was growing? Or a dark Sunday morning with no church bells ringing? Then you have walked in a picture of me without you..
Lorrie Morgan
I've got your picture, I've got your picture
I'd like a million of them all 'round my cell
I want a doctor to take your picture
So I can look at you from inside as well
The Vapors
Bread
If a picture paints a thousand words,
Then why can't I paint you?
The words will never show
The you I've come to know
Doctor ,my eyes have seen the years And the slow parade of tears without crying Now I want to understand. I have done all that I could to see the evil and the good without hiding,you must help me if you can. Doctor my eyes,tell me what is wrong. Was I unwise to leave them open for so long,. Jackson Browne
With these hungry eyes
One look at you and I can't disguise
I've got hungry eyes
I feel the magic between you and I

As he loves her
And they live together for life

Slow boat to China to get next to you
My heart's shipwrecked baby
Cross the ocean blue
Just for you, o-o anything for you

[A lone, a lone, a lone, a lone wolf]
Yea

Hey you, you're a wild honey child

I want to get you, I want to get you
Out of your dress
Your little black dress
I said I want to get you, I want to get you
Out of your dress
Your little black dress
One Drop
Every time that I stare into the sun
Angel dust and my dress just comes undone
Every time that I stare into the sun
Be a model or just look like one
Wild eye rot gut do me in
Do you think you can make me do it again?
Hole
the quake sets in

The Faint
Bill Haley
Get out from that kitchen
And rattle those pots and pans
Get out from that kitchen
And rattle those pots and pans
Well, roll my breakfast
'Cause I'm a hungry man
I said, shake, rattle, and roll
Let me sleep all night in your soul kitchen
Warm my mind near your gentle stove
Turn me out and I'll wander baby
Stumblin' in the neon groves

Morning has broken like the first morning
Blackbird has spoken like the first bird
Praise for the singing

Praise for them springing fresh from the world
Praise Him, praise Him.

Praise Him, He's the King of Kings.

Bunny Wailer
Asked a girl what she wanted to be
She said baby, can't you see
I want to be famous, a star on the screen
But you can do something in between
Baby you can drive my car
Yes I'm gonna be a star
Baby you can drive my car
And maybe I'll love you

I Kissed a Girl
Katy Perry
I kissed a girl and I liked it
The taste of her cherry chap stick
I kissed a girl just to try it
I hope my boyfriend don't mind it
Why must I feel this way?
Just make this go away
Just one more peaceful day
And it's been awhile since I could look at myself straight
And it's been awhile since I said I'm sorry
And it's been awhile since I've seen the way the candles light your face
And it's been awhile, but I can still remember just the way you taste
Staind
And I got a peaceful easy feelin'
And I know you won't let me down
'Cause I'm already standin'
On the ground
Peaceful Easy Feeling
Eagles
Commodores

But, I just can't stand the pain
Girl, I'm leaving you tomorrow
Seems to me girl
You know I've done all I can
You see I begged, stole, and I borrowed! (yeah)
Ooh that's why I'm easy
I'm easy like Sunday morning
Hide on the promenade
Etch a postcard:
"How I Dearly Wish I Was Not Here"
In the seaside town
That they forgot to bomb
Come, come, come, nuclear bomb
Every day is like Sunday
Every day is silent and grey
Morrissey
I don't really care about which way you vote
'Cos my gerrymander works out fine
I sell desert stretches like a big rubber glove
To Japan for a nuclear device
Nuclear device

I've been through the desert on a horse with no name
It felt good to be out of the rain
In the desert you can remember your name
'Cause there ain't no one for to give you no pain

B. J. Thomas
Raindrops are falling on my head
And just like the guy whose feet are too big for his bed
Every day just the same
Old rules for the same old game
All I gained was heartache
All I made was one mistake
Now the bed's too big without you
The bed's too big without you
The bed's too big
Without you
The Police
I dreamt about you last night
And I fell out of bed twice
You can pin and mount me like a butterfly
But "take me to the haven of your bed"
Was something that you never said
Two lumps, please
You're the bee's knees
But so am I
The Smiths
I told you before, don't you hear what I say
I won't take it no more, no more making me stay
Down on my knees, you know I'm down on my knees yea
Yes I've been down on my knees
But I'm through begging please
I won't get back on my knees.
Down on my knees
Bread
Bed of Roses
Bon Jovi
I wanna lay you down in a bed of roses
For tonight I sleep on a bed of nails
Oh, I wanna be just as close as the Holy Ghost is
And lay you down on a bed of roses
I realize the way your eyes deceive me
With tender looks that I mistook for love
So take away the flowers that you gave me
And send the kind you remind me of
Paper roses, paper roses
Oh how real those roses seemed to me
But they're only imitation
Like your imitation love for me
Marie Osmond
When the garden flowers baby are dead, yes and
Your mind, your mind is so full of red
Don't you want somebody to love, don't you
Need somebody to love, wouldn't you
Love somebody to love, you better
Find somebody to love
Jefferson Airplane
You better watch your tape boys
It's the tint that angers the beast
Got their sails in the sunset
They've already got the east
Red red red
Don't you let them make you
Don't let them make you see...red
XTC
Ooo, baby, I love your way, everyday
Wanna tell you I love your way, everyday
Wanna be with you night and day
I can see the sunset in your eyes

Rocky Mountain HIgh
John Denver
Listening to you I get the music

She puts on her make-up and brushes her long blonde hair
And then she asks me, Do I look all right?
And I say, "Yes, you look wonderful tonight

Carpenters
Talkin' to myself and feelin' old
Sometimes I'd like to quit
Nothin' ever seems to fit
Hangin' around
Nothin' to do but frown
Rainy days and Mondays always get me down
One of 'em comes over
Got a monkey on his shoulder
And the monkey's getting grinner
But his eyes are on the ground
He's just hanging around
He's just hanging around
The Stranglers
Well I like beer and rodeos
Detective books and dominos
Football games and Cheerios
And sneakin' around with you
Sneakin' around with you
Goin' around or two
Doin' what lovers do
Whenever they're sneakin' around

And I thought I'd bring me some money back.
Big boat up the river and she can't come down.
My woman on the levee wearing a frown.

Without your love, no baby
Don't leave me this way
I can't exist I will surely miss your tender kiss
So don't leave me this way
Oh baby my heart is filled with love and desire for you
So come and down and do what you've got to do

Give to me your leather
Take from me my lace
Stevie Nicks
Somewhere out there on that horizon
Out beyond the neon lights
I know there must be somethin' better
but there's nowhere else in sight
It's survival in the city
When you live from day to day
City streets don't have much pity
When you're down, that's where you'll stay
In the city, oh, oh.
In the city
Eagles
Hot town, summer in the city
Back of my neck getting dirty and gritty

All around people looking half dead
Walkin on the sidewalk, hotter than a match head

In your eyes
Peter Gabriel
Light myself up a cigarette
Light myself up a cigarette
Light myself up a cigarette
Nicotine really goes to my head
If you're feeling all in take some asprin
If you feel in a mess put your head on a head rest
Your back on a back rest, foot on a foot rest
Or your arm on an arm rest or your leg on a leg rest
Your back on a back rest, if you feel in a real mess
When you're feeling all in take some asprin
Or some paracetamol

Praise for the morning
Praise for them springing fresh from the world

Why do you wake me so?
Sweet nightingale
You're telling me something I don't know
Morning is coming
Morning is on it's way
Morning is coming
It's revelation day

You give me fever, when you kiss me
Fever when you hold me tight
Fever in the morning
Fever all through the night
The Cramps
Wake me up before you go-go
Don't leave me hanging on like a yo-yo
Wake me up before you go-go
I don't want to miss it when you hit that high
Wham!
I sneak in my own house
It's four in the morning
I've had too much to drink
Said I was out with the boys
I creep in my bedroom
I slip into bed
I know if I wake her
I'll wake up dead

On a hot summer night
Would you offer your throat to the wolf with the red roses?
Yes
I bet you to say that to all the boys.

My Sweet Summer is gone

Her Lipstick can't be wrong
My summer, summer, my sweet summer is gone

And I swear like the shadow that's by your side
Now you spit out the sky
Because it's empty and hollow

Stars are stars
And they shine so cold
Echo and the Bunnymen
Spread your wings you can fly
But the dove is never free
In painted skies that shade the color
Of your dream

The Doors
Cruising down the motorway
Got my girl by my side
We're both a little anxious
Ooo, we got love on our mind
Waiting, anticipating
For the fireworks in the night
Well I swear we were doing eighty
When we saw those motel lights
.38 special
'Cause when the loving starts, and the lights go down
There's not another living soul around
You woo me until the sun comes up
And you say that you love me

Just for you here's a love song

And in the mornings I can see them walking.
I can no longer keep my blinds drawn,
And I can't keep myself from talking.
The Mamas and The Papas
You tell me that you want me
You tell me that you need me
You tell me that you love me
And I know that I'm right
Cuz I hear it in the night
I hear the secrets that you keep
When you're talking in your sleep
The Romantics
I need you like the flower needs the rain
You know I need you, guess I'll start it all again
You know I need you like the winter needs the spring
You know I need you, I need you
I Need You
America
If I could make a wish
I think I'd pass
Can't think of anything I need
No cigarettes, no sleep, no light. no sound
Nothing to eat, no books to read
Making love with you
Has left me peaceful warm and tired
What more could I ask
There's nothing left to be desired
Peace came upon me and it leaves me weak
So sleep, silent angel go to sleep
The Hollies
Tell all the world, to join in

Tell them all to get on board
And let that train keep on riding, riding on through
The O'Jays
A long train held up by page on page
A hard reign held up by rage
Once a railroad
Now it's done...
I hear the roar of the big machine
Two worlds and in between
Hot metal and methedrine
I hear empire down...
We got the empire, now as then

The Ethiopians
Chewing out a rhythm on my bubble gum
The sun is out and I want some
It's not hard, not far to reach, we can hitch a ride to Rockaway Beach
Up on the roof, out on the street
Down in the playground, the hot concrete
Bus ride is too slow, they blast out the disco on the radio
The Ramones
When this old world starts getting me down
And people are just too much for me to face
I climb right up to the top of the stairs
And all my cares just drift out into space
On the roof it's peaceful as can be
And there the world below can't bother me
The Drifters
It was one of those nights when you turn off the lights
And everythin' comes into view
She was takin' her time I was loosin my mind
There was nothin' that she wouldn't do
It wasn't the first, it wasn't the last
She knew we was makin' love
I was so satisfied, deep down inside
Like a hand in a velvet glove
Seems like a touch, a touch too much
Seems like a touch, a touch too much
Too much for my body
Too much for my brain
This damn woman's gonna drive me insane
She got a touch
A touch too much
AC/DC
Eagles
One of these nights, one of these crazy old nights
We're gonna find out, pretty mama, what turns on your lights
The full moon is calling, the fever is high
And the wicked wind whispers and moans
You got your demons, you got your desires
Well, I got a few of my own
The world today is such a wicked place
Fighting going on between the human race
People got to work just to earn their bread
While people just across the sea are counting their dead
Black Sabbath
As I walk through
This wicked world
Searchin' for light in the darkness of insanity
I ask myself
Is all hope lost?
Is there only pain and hatred, and misery?
And each time I feel like this inside
There's one thing I wanna know:
What's so funny 'bout peace love and understanding? Ohhhh
What's so funny 'bout peace love and understanding?
Elvis Costello
I wanna lay beneath these sheets and never turn blue
I wanna hold you, hold you tight but never touch
I want some pure, pure white; hey, we can nod all night
We can do it without thinking too much
Wicked, wicked, wicked, wicked gravity . . .
Wicked, wicked, wicked, wicked gravity . . .
Wicked, wicked, wicked, wicked.
Jim Carroll Band
The Moody Blues
Nights in white satin
Never reaching the end
Letters I've written
Never meaning to send
Within myself
A secret world returns
Over and over
Where the white flame of desire burns
Crowded House
(For my cbgb <3 )
In the dark, near the heart
Close to real desire
In my words, in my eyes
Can't you feel the desire?
We will wait for the night
We will wait for desire
Bittersweet, laugh and cry
Tears that taste of desire
The Sound

Every rose has its thorn
Just like every night has its dawn
Just like every cowboy sings his sad, sad song

They have nothing that'll ever capture your heart
They're just thorns without the rose
Ooh, be careful of 'em in the dark

I get up in the evening
And I ain't got nothing to say
I come home in the morning
I go to bed feeling the same way
I ain't nothing but tired
Man I'm just tired and bored with myself
Hey there baby, I could use just a little help
We get it almost every night
When that moon is big and bright
It's a supernatural delight
Everybody's dancin' in the moonlight
Dancing in the Moonlight

See the curtains hangin' in the window
In the evening on a Friday night
A little light a shinin' through the window
Lets me know everything's all right
Type O Negative
Come to my window
Crawl inside, wait by the light of the moon
Come to my window
I'll be home soon
I would dial the numbers
Just to listen to your breath
I would stand inside my hell
And hold the hand of death
You don't know how far I'd go
To ease this precious ache
You don't know how much I'd give
Or how much I could take
Just to reach you
Just to reach you
Oh to reach you

The wind blew some luck in my direction
I caught it in my hands today
I finally made a tricky French connection
You winked and gave me your O.K.
I'll take you on a trip beside the ocean
And drop the top at Chesapeake Bay
Ain't nothing like the sky to dose a potion
The moon'll send you on your way
Let's swim to the moon, uh huh
Let's climb through the tide
Surrender to the waiting worlds
That lap against our side

You bow to me like you did before
Soulfly
Before they start to wander
And they start to shrink
You rub your eye a little and appear to blink

She knows just what you're thinking
What got into you was not a ghost as such
It was just dust
Elvis Costello
Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds
The Beatles
Picture yourself in a boat on a river
With tangerine trees and marmalade skies
Somebody calls you, you answer quite slowly
A girl with kaleidoscope eyes

And hold your arms up to the sky
And ask the sky and ask the sky
Don't fall on me

Hot town, summer in the city
Back of my neck getting dirty and gritty
Been down, isn't it a pity
Doesn't seem to be a shadow in the city
One summer never ends
One summer never began
It keeps me standing still
It takes all my will
And then suddenly
Last summer
The Motels
Summer, it turns me upside down
Summer, summer, summer
It's like a merry go round
I see you under the midnight
All shackles and bows
High shoes with the cleats a clickin'
A tempermental glow
The Cars
And I'll be with him
(I know you will)
On that midnight train to Georgia

Than live without him in mine

Let's compare scars, I'll tell you whose is worse
Let's unwrite these pages and replace them with our own words

If love is a labor I'll slave till the end
I won't cross these streets until you hold my hand

There's something in the way she moves
Or looks my way, or calls my name
That seems to leave this troubled world behind

Maybe it's the glare of the lights
Maybe it's something you'll never know

It's a Long Way to Tipperary
Song by John McCormack
Up to mighty London came
An Irish man one day,
All the streets were paved with gold,
So everyone was gay!
Singing songs of Piccadilly,
Strand, and Leicester Square,
'Til Paddy got excited and
He shouted to them there:
It's a long way to Tipperary,
When lonely days turn to lonely nights
You take a trip to the city lights
And take the long way home
You take the long way home

Wasted days and wasted nights

I thought I heard somebody say
"Gotta face new directions, get new expectations"
Strange thing happened today
The Buzzcocks
People are strange when you're a stranger
Faces are ugly when you're alone
Women seem wicked when you're unwanted
Streets are uneven when you're down
When you're strange
Faces come out of the rain
When you're strange
No one remembers your name
When you're strange
When you're strange
When you're strange
Nobody told me there'd be days like these
Nobody told me there'd be days like these
Strange days indeed

Round and round
What comes around goes around
I'll tell you why

Caucs in the front

No longer riding on the merry-go-round

I'm lost but I'm hopeful, baby
What it all comes down to
Is that everything's gonna be fine, fine, fine
'Cause I've got one hand in my pocket
And the other one is giving a high five

Don't need to be no strong hand
Don't need to be no rich hand
Every one just needs a hand to hold on to

Wake up Suzy, put your shoes on,
Walk with me into this light.
Another night has gone,
Life goes on,

The shadows that hide your way.
And night has given away to
The promise of another day.

First we were strangers down on our luck
and in need of a friend
Promised each other too much to live up to
and now we are strangers again
Tammy Wynette
Strangers in the night, two lonely people
We were strangers in the night
Up to the moment when we said our first hello
Little did we know
Love was just a glance away, a warm embracing dance away
And ever since that night
We've been together
Lovers at first sight
In love forever
It turned out so right
For strangers in the night

The 1985 Chicago Bears
You're walking along the street, or you're at a party
Or else you're alone and then suddenly you dig
You're looking in someone's eyes
You suddenly realize
This could be the start of something big
You're lunching at "21", you're watching your diet
Declining a charlotte russe, accepting a fig
When out of a clear blue sky
It's suddenly gal and guy
And this could be the start of something big
Steve and Eydie
Party at ground zero
A B-movie starring you
And the world will turn to flowing

Wearin' pearls and diamond rings
She's got bracelets on her fingers, now, and everything

Devil with the blue dress on
Devil with the blue dress, blue dress, blue dress
Devil with the blue dress on

When top men need a top up long before the happy hour
Your snakeskin suit and your alligator boot
You won't need a launderette, you can take 'em to the vet!

Some who succeeded and some who suffered in vain
The Kinks
Give me your hungry, your tired your poor I'll piss on 'em

You want to graduate but not in 'is bed
Here's what you gotta do
Pick up the phone
I'm always home
Call me any time
Just ring
36 24 36 hey
I lead a life of crime
Dirty deeds, done dirt cheap
Been all around the world, don't speak the language
But your booty don't need explaining
All I really need to understand is
When you talk dirty to me
Talk dirty to me
Talk dirty to me
Talk dirty to me
Get jazzy on it
Jason Derulo
I see some nurses
They think they're oh so prim and white

And they won't step lively anymore

I see the best of me inside your eyes
You make me smile
Uncle Kracker
I may not always love you
But as long as there are stars above you
You never need to doubt it
I'll make you so sure about it

The world could show nothing to me
So what good would living do me
God only knows what I'd be without you
The Beach Boys
The New Seekers
I'd like to build the world a home
And furnish it with love
Grow apple trees and honey bees
And snow white turtle doves
How could you just leave me standing?
Alone in a world so cold? (world so cold)
Maybe I'm just too demanding
Maybe I'm just like my father, too bold
Maybe you're just like my mother
She's never satisfied (she's never satisfied)
Why do we scream at each other?
This is what it sounds like
When doves cry
Prince
I just want to scream!
Scream about hurting (Yeah)
Scream about mercy (Uh-huh)
Scream about something (Yeah)
Scream about nothing

Forever trust in who we are
And nothing else matters

Dirty Heads
How long has this been goin' on?

Charlie Dore
You've got a friend in me
You've got a friend in me

Yeah, you've got a friend in me

John Fogerty

All the leaves are brown (all the leaves are brown)
And the sky is grey (and the sky is grey)

On a winter's day (on a winter's day)
I'd be safe and warm (I'd be safe and warm)
If I was in L.A. (if I was in L.A.)
Where do you fall when you have nowhere to go?
Where do you go when you have no one to see?
What do you see when you have nothing to feel?
What do you feel when you're all alone?
Tired of waiting, clouds will be breaking
Soon you'll escape and someday we'll find
Our place in the sky
Calexico
When I die and they lay me to rest
Gonna go to the place that's the best
When I lay me down to die
Goin' up to the spirit in the sky
Goin' up to the spirit in the sky
That's where I'm gonna go when I die
When I die and they lay me to rest
Gonna go to the place that's the best
Norman Greenbaum
You're simply the best, better than all the rest
Better than anyone, anyone I ever met
I'm stuck on your heart, I hang on every word you say
Tear us apart, baby, I would rather be dead
In your heart I see the start of every night and day
In your eyes I get lost, I get washed away
Just as long here in your arms I could be in no better place
You're simply the best, better than all the rest
Tina Turner
NSYNC
It's tearin' up my heart when I'm with you
But when we are apart, I feel it too
And no matter what I do, I feel the pain
With or without you
When you're touching me, I feel great
When I'm touching you, hallucinate
When I'm standing here, I feel strange
When you're standing near, I feel strange
All that I know
Is my mind is blown.
When I'm with you.
When I'm with you [Repeat: x5]

I'm getting ready for the heartaches to come
Bonnie Tyler
It's a heartache
Nothing but a heartache
Hits you when it's too late
Hits you when you're down
Five o'clock in the mornin'
I'm already up and gone
Lord, I'm so tired
How long can this go on?
Workin' in the coal mine
Goin' down, down
Workin' in a coal mine
Oops, about to slip down

Born in a cabin on a hill in Bucther Hollow

Roy Orbison singing for the lonely
Hey, that's me and I want you only
Don't turn me home again, I just can't face myself alone again
Don't run back inside, darling, you know just what I'm here for
So you're scared and you're thinking that maybe we ain't that young anymore
Show a little faith, there's magic in the night
You ain't a beauty but, hey, you're alright
Oh, and that's alright with me
Bruce
Yes I gotta' have faith
Ooh, I gotta' have faith
Because I gotta' have faith, faith, faith

I've got to, got to, got to have faith
George Michael
Nobody on the road
Nobody on the beach
I feel it in the air
The summer's out of reach
Empty lake, empty streets
The sun goes down alone
I'm driving by your house
Don't know you're not home
But I can see you
Your brown skin shining in the sun
You got your hair combed back
And your sunglasses on, baby
I can tell you my love for you will still be strong
After the boys of summer have gone
Don Henley
Someone's sleeping
Through a bad dream
Tomorrow it will be over
For the world will soon be waking
To a summer's day
Paul McCartney
I can make you mine...taste your lips of wine

Lips like strawberry wine
You're sixteen, you're beautiful and you're mine

Happy birthday sweet sixteen

We don't have to be lonely tonight
Need you, want you, I'm right here
We don't have to be lonely tonight
I know we shouldn't, but I don't care
I don't wanna be right, I don't wanna be strong
I just wanna hold you till the heart breaks stone
When the sun comes up, we can both move on
But we don't have to be lonely tonight
Blake Shelton
I'm pissed off, but I'm too polite,
When people break in the McDonald's line.
Mom and Dad you made me so uptight,
I'm gonna cuss on the mic tonight.
I don't know how much I can take,
Girl, give me something I can break.

Stevie Wonder
Baby, ev'rything is all right, uptight, out of sight
I, I just want to be your everything
Open up the heaven in your heart and let me be
The things you are to me and not some puppet on a string
Oh, if I stay here without you, darling, I will die
Andy Gibb
No caffeine, no protein
No booze or ni-co-tine
Just remember
Everything gives you cancer, everything
There's no cure, there's no answer
Everything gives you cancer...
Don't play that piano!
Joe Jackson
And it's rotting your teeth right out of your head
Sight and hearing have quickly fading
And your gut's expanding, your hairline's receding
The sores are opening and the cancer's spreading
Against Me!

I'm in the phone booth, it's the one across the hall
If you don't answer, I'll just ring it off the wall
I know he's there, but I just had to call
Don't leave me hanging on the telephone
Don't leave me hanging on the telephone
Blondie
Thelma Houston
Don't leave me this way
I can't survive, I can't stay alive, without your love

Way down upon the Swanee River
Far, Far away
That's where my heart is yearning
That's where the old folks stay
Burle Ives
I don't know why you treat me like you do
All the changes you put me through
Take my money, my cigarettes
I haven't seen the worst of it yet
I want to know that you'll tell me
I love to stay
Take me to the river, drop me in the water
Take me to the river, dip me in the water
Washing me down, washing me down
Talking Heads
Every day's an endless stream
Of cigarettes and magazines
And each town looks the same to me, the movies and the factories
And every stranger's face I see reminds me that I long to be
Homeward bound
I wish I was
Homeward bound
Home where my thought's escaping
Home where my music's playing
Home where my love lies waiting
Silently for me
-- and--
Let us be lovers, we'll marry our fortunes together
I've got some real estate here in my bag
So we bought a pack of cigarettes and Mrs. Wagner's pies
And we walked off to look for America
Simon & Garfunkel
joyful, I'm pretty sure that Stephen Foster wrote those lyrics. That song was also central to my favorite Honeymooners episode (-;
I know, ianimal but I remember in my childhood Burle Ives singing it so that was why I posted his name. Stephen Foster wrote the lyrics, I know... Sorry, I will try to be more accurate next time..
If you like Pina Coladas, and getting caught in the rain
If you're not into yoga, if you have half a brain
If you like making love at midnight, in the dunes of the cape
I'm the love that you've looked for, write to me, and escape
Rupert Holmes
Kacey Musgraves
When it rain it pours but you didn't even notice
It ain't rainin' anymore, it's hard to breathe when all we know is
The struggle of staying above, the rising water line
So rock me momma like a wagon wheel
Rock me momma any way you feel
Hey, momma rock me
Rock me momma like the wind and the rain
Rock me momma like a south bound train
Hey, momma rock me
Bob Dylan
Sorry, joyful. I didn't mean for you to take that as me being critical. I only remember Burl Ives from the Christmas specials i watched as a kid (and still do). I dont recall him singing Old Folks at Home.
And now I'm sorry, sorry, sorry
I didn't mean to make you cry -ai -ai
Let's make amends
Because we're more than friends
ay-ay-ay
Well, I ran all the way home
Just to say I'm sorry
What can I say-ay
I ran all the way … ay-ay-ay
The Impalas
What have I got to do to make you want me
What have I got to do to be heard
What do I say when it's all over?
And sorry seems to be the hardest word
Elton John
Your lips when they're kissing me, and your hips when leaving me for
The last time, I'm thinking of the first time, ohh
The first time, I'm thinking of the last time
Play it back, it's going over and over
Acceptance
The first time ever I saw your face
I thought the sun rose in your eyes
And the moon and the stars were the gifts you gave
To the night and the empty skies my love
To the night and the empty skies
The first time ever I kissed your mouth
I felt the earth turn in my hand
Like the trembling heart of a captive bird
That was there at my command my love
That was there at my command
The first time ever I lay with you
And felt your heart beat close to mine
I thought our joy would fill the earth
And would last 'til the end of time my love
And would last 'til the end of time
Roberta Flack
Somewhere in a private place
She packs her bags for outer space
And she's waiting for the right kind of pilot to come
And she'll say to him
I would fly you to the moon and back
If you'd be, if you'll be my baby
I've got a ticket for a world where we belong
Savage Garden
Fly me to the moon and let me play among the stars

Moon river, wider than a mile
I'm crossing you in style some day

We're after the same rainbow's end, waitin' round the bend
My huckleberry friend, moon river, and me
Andy Williams
When I want you in my arms
When I want you and all your charms
Whenever I want you, all I have to do is
Drea-ea-ea-ea-eam, dream, dream, dream
Everly Brothers
Do you ever walk alone?
Like a drifter in the dark
Seeking out what isn't there
Looking only for a spark
From a girl who's all alone
Maybe she's a-driftin' too
Like a shadow in the night
Waitin' just to meet with you
Ween
Let all the others fuss and fight
Whatever happens, we've got us
Me and my shadow
We're closer than pages that stick in a book
We're closer than ripples that play in a brook
Strolling down the avenue
Wherever you find him, you'll find me just look
Closer than a miser or the bloodhounds to Liza
Me and my shadow
Frank Sinatra
The closer you get, the further I fall
I'll be over the edge now in no time at all.
I'm fallin' faster and faster and faster with no time to stall
The closer you get, the further I fall.
Alabama
Down at the edge, close by a river
Close to the edge, round by the corner
Close to the end, down by the corner
Down at the edge, round by the river
Yes
Down by the lazy river,
Come as you please.
Down by the lazy river,
One big family.
If you're all alone,
You won't be long.
Just bring your guitar and sing your song.
Down by the lazy river,
Everybody follow me.
The Osmonds
I look at you all, see the love there that's sleeping

Still my guitar gently weeps

Where did I go wrong?
I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life
The Fray
I'm not dying
All you did was save my life
Pulled me out of that flat line
Put the heartbeat back inside
I'm not dying
Our Lady Peace
OK, so your heart is broken
You sit around mopin'
Crying, crying, you say you're even thinking about dying?
Well, before you do anything rash
Dig this …
Everybody plays the fool
Ain't no exception to the rule
The Main Ingredient
That I'd been crying over you
Crying over you
Then you said, "So long"
Left me standing all alone
Alone and crying
Crying
Crying
Crying
It's hard to understand
But the touch of your hand
Can start me crying
Roy Orbison
No one knows why
She's sad tonight
No one can help her find
Crying, crying she couldn't afford the view
Crying, crying these automatic flowers won't do

You saw me crying in the Chapel
The tears I shed were tears of joy
I know the meaning of contentment
Now I am happy with the Lord
The Platters
Little Anthony and the Imperials
You don't remember me, but I remember you
'Twas not so long ago, you broke my heart in two
Tears on my pillow, pain in my heart
Caused by you, you
I'll remember you
Long after this endless summer is gone
I'll be lonely oh so lonely
Living only here to remember you
Elvis Presley
When my life is through
And the angels ask me to recall
The thrill of it all
I will tell them I remember you

You have always been faithful to me

Even when my own eyes could not see
You were there, always there
Lauren Daigle
There's a leafless tree in Asia, under the sun there's a homeless man
There's a forest fire in the valley where the story all began
What will be our last thought? Do you think it is coming soon?
Will it be of comfort, or the pain of a burning wound?
All we are trying to say is we are all we've got
You and me just cannot fail, if we never ever stop
The Moody Blues
You and I-I-I
Holding it together
When we're high-igh-igh
Everything is better
Never die-ie-ie
We can live forever in Wasted Time
Overstreeet
By the sacred grove, where the waters flow
We will come and go, in the forest
In the summer rain, we will meet again
We will learn the code of the ancient ones
In the forest
Van Morrison
The summer wind came blowin' in from across the sea
It lingered there, to touch your hair and walk with me

A little light shining through the window, lets me know everything's alright
Summer breeze, makes me feel fine
Blowin through the jasmine in my mind
Seals and Crofts
Kenny Loggins
I'm alright
Nobody worry 'bout me
Why you got to gimme a fight?
Can't you just let it be?
You gotta fight from the inside
Attack from the rear
Fight from the inside
You can't win with your hands tied
Fight from the inside
Ooh, ooh, aah
Fight from the inside
Right down the line
Queen
Some men are born to live at ease
Doing what they please
Richer than the bees are in honey
Best at making mountains of money
Don't forget that when you get to heaven you'll be blessed

You'll be alright tonight
Night Ranger

Empty out the hatred in life
We're bringing only good vibes
Bringing only good vibes

And the sign said "Long-haired freaky people need not apply"
So I tucked my hair up under my hat and I went in to ask him why
He said "You look like a fine upstanding young man, I think you'll do"
So I took off my hat, I said "Imagine that. Huh! Me workin' for you!"
Whoa-oh-oh

Blockin' out the scenery, breakin' my mind
Do this, don't do that, can't you read the sign?

When I'm tired and thinking cold
I hide in my music, forget the day
And dream of a girl I used to know
I closed my eyes and she slipped away
It's more than a feeling (more than a feeling)
When I hear that old song they used to play (more than a feeling)
And I begin dreaming (more than a feeling)
'Til I see Marianne walk away
I see my Marianne walkin' away

Glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife
C'mon hold on tight
Oh c'mon hold on tight
Meat Loaf
Blank frank has a memory that's as cold as an iceberg
The only time he speaks is in incomprehensible proverbs
Blank frank is the siren, he's the air-raid, he's the crater
He's on the menu, on the table, he's the knife and he's the waiter
Brian Eno
Foreigner
You're as cold as ice
You're willing to sacrifice our love
You never take advice
Someday you'll pay the price, I know
I tried so hard my dear to show that you're my every dream
Yet you're afraid each thing I do is just some evil scheme
A memory from your lonesome past keeps us so far apart
Why can't I free your doubtful mind and melt your cold cold heart
Another love some before my time made your heart sad and blue
And so my heart is paying now for things I didn't do
In anger unkind words are said that make the teardrops star
Why can't I free your doubtful mind and melt your cold cold heart
Hank Williams
The Ozark Mountain Daredevils

David Bowie
Livin' and lovin' life's so damn easy

And talk about their homes
And there's a girl in this harbor town
And she works layin' whiskey down
They say, Brandy, fetch another round
She serves them whiskey and wine

"What a good wife you would be" (such a fine girl)
"Yeah, your eyes could steal a sailor from the sea"

Dirt
You get your hands in it
Plant your roots in it
Dusty head lights dance with your boots in it (dirt)
You write her name on it

Sodom and Gomorrah is the USA's warning,
When Tafari looked down he saw not one good man of them.
Tragedy and calamity believe is upon us,
Armageddon shall show her face on all us.

And I am never broken

Take these broken wings
And learn to fly again
And learn to live so free
When we hear the voices sing
The book of love will open up
And let us in

Sing for the day
Sing for the moment
Sing for the time of your life
Come for an hour
Stay for a moment
Stay for the rest of your life

Sing.
Sing a song.
Sing out loud, sing out strong.
Sing of good things, not bad.
Sing of happy, not sad.
Folks would come from miles around
It gets in your blood
And you can't get it out
When it steals your heart
There ain't nothing you can do
Lord, I don't sing for the money
I sing 'cause I love to
Lord, I don't sing for the money
I sing 'cause I love to
Rebecca Lynn Howard
To know, know, know him
Is to love, love, love him
Just to see him smile
Makes my life worthwhile
To know, know, know him
Is to love, love, love him
And I do....Yes, I do...Yes, I do...
Skeeter Davis
I'm so happy (oh, oh)
That you love me (oh, oh)
Life is lovely (woah)
When you're near me
Tell me you will stay
Make me smile
Chicago
But he knew
Knew more than me or you
No one could see his view
Where was he going to?
He was in search of an answer
The nature of what we are
He was trying to do it a new way
He was bright as a star
Kansas
I caught that falling star
It cut my hands to pieces
Where did I put that box
That had my name in it

Each time I see you again
I fall to pieces

Patsy Cline
You, you got what I need but you say he's just a friend
And you say he's just a friend, oh baby

But you say he's just a friend, oh baby
You, you got what I need but you say he's just a friend
But you say he's just a friend

Some enchanted evening, someone may be laughing
You may hear her laughing
Across a crowded room
And night after night, as strange as it seems
The sound of her laughter will ring in your dreams

Walking hand in hand with the one I love
Oh, how I love the rainy days and the happy way I feel inside

Tender is the ghost
The ghost I love the most
Hiding from the sun
Waiting for the night to come
Blur
At first flash of Eden
We race down to the sea
Standing there on freedom's shore
Waiting for the sun
Waiting for the sun
Waiting for the sun
Can you feel it
Now that Spring has come
That it's time to live in the scattered sun
Waiting for the sun
Waiting for the sun
Waiting for the sun
The Doors
I was waiting for the sun
Then I walked on home alone
But what I didn't know
Was he was waiting for you to fall
The Jayhawks
Left standing in the lurch at a church
Where people saying: "My God, that's tough"
"She stood him up"
"No point in us remaining"
"We may as well go home"
As I did on my own
Alone again, naturally
Gilbert O'Sullivan
I keep a journal of memories
I'm feeling lonely, I can't breathe
Fall to pieces, I'm falling
Fell to pieces and I'm still falling
Every time I'm falling down
All alone I fall to pieces
Velvet Revolver
Esperanza Spalding
Don't worry if we fall in love
We will never touch the ground
Don't worry if we fall in love
We will never touch the ground
Just fall into a dream
Seems like a touch (touch too much)
You know it's much too much, (much too much)
I really want to feel, yeah (touch too much)
Girl, you know you're giving me (much too much)
Seems like a touch
Just a dirty little touch
I really need your touch
Cause you're much too much, too much, too much

Three little maids from school are we
Pert as a school-girl well can be
Filled to the brim with girlish glee
Three little maids from school
Everything is a source of fun
Nobody's safe for we care for none
Life is a joke that's just begun
Three little maids from school
Three little maids who, all unwary
Come from a ladies' seminary
Freed from its genius tutelary
Three little maids from school
Three little maids from school

I want to be Bobby's girl
That's the most important thing to me
And if I was Bobby's girl
If I was Bobby's girl
What a grateful thankful girl I'd be
And I wanna know if I could be your girl
The one who puts her arms around you
The one who lays her head beside you (Your girl)
The one who listens when you need it
When no one else sees, I could see it (Your girl)
The one who knows when something's wrong
The one who knows your favorite song (I just wanna be your girl)

Sing, sing a song
Make it simple to last
Your whole life long
Don't worry that it's not
Good enough for anyone
Else to hear
Just sing, sing a song.

Oh for a thousand tongues to sing,my great redeemer's praise. The glories of my God and King,the wonders of His grace.He breaks the power of reining sin, He sets the prisoner free. His blood can make the foulest clean,His blood availed for me. Trinity Hymnal
Under the oak and the iron
With you under oak and iron

I forgot to tell you 'bout the 7 sins

When troubles come and my heart burdened be
Then I am still and wait here in the silence
Until you come and sit a while with me

Words like violence
Break the silence
Come crashing in
Into my little world
Painful to me

Can't you understand?
Depeche Mode
It's a world of laughter,
A world of tears.
It's a world of hopes,
And a world of fears.
There's so much that we share,
That it's time we're aware,
It's a small world after all.
Lyrics and music by Richard M. and Robert B. Sherman
Trust me now, but don't you come too near,
Too near is just too close to where we stand right now, I fear,
It's all upset, degenerate,
The world come crashing down,
The balance of power is all upset and now we're going down.

It makes me glow so much
It casts a spell, it rings a bell

Was like any other until I kissed you
And then it happened, it took me by surprise

It felt so nice

Stick Figure
Another turning point, a fork stuck in the road
Time grabs you by the wrist, directs you where to go
So make the best of this test and don't ask why
It's not a question, but a lesson learned in time
It's something unpredictable, but in the end it's right
I hope you had the time of your life
Green Day
Call me irresponsible, call me unreliable
Throw in undependable too
Do my foolish alibis bore you?
Well I'm not too clever; I just adore you
Call me unpredictable, tell me I'm impractical
Rainbows I'm inclined to pursue
Call me irresponsible, yes I'm unreliable
But it's undeniably true: I'm irresponsibly mad for you
Many artists have recorded this one
I never thought I'd need somebody,
who makes me feel the way you do.
When psyche meets cupid,
don't mind me if I'm stupid,

You would not believe your eyes
If ten million fireflies
Lit up the world as I fell asleep
'Cause they fill the open air
And leave teardrops everywhere
You'd think me rude but I would just stand and stare
I'd like to make myself believe that planet earth turns slowly
It's hard to say I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep
'Cause everything is never as it seems

Walking down the street, kicking cans
Looking at the billboard oh so bland
Summing up the people, checking out the race
Doing what I'm doing, feeling out of place

Just a note that the song "Smile", while performed by Nat King Cole, was actually written by Charlie Chaplin.

Phil D. I just came here to see what you was up to
I just came here to see if you cared
I know it’s been a long time since I saw you
If you open up your door then I’ll come upstairs
Meet Me At the Pub
@ Phil D. I was under the impression also that we were supposed to post lyrics from a song (with words in it taken from the previous post).. and then indicate a person or group who sang that song and not the writer...I guess JL and I did not realize this was the case ( this was pointed out to me recently as well)....However, looks like the majority are posting the lyrics and the person or group who sang that song...So.....On with the game...
And ever since the day, you came walking back my way
been lovers and best friends.
Dirk Schwenk
@ joyful
In her second post Sunshine Girl does state to post a singer if known. I wasn't trying to correct JL, just let them and others in on the fact that it was actually written by Charlie Chaplin, which I think a lot of people may not have known. Personally, I think it would be awesome to write both your favorite artist doing that particular song as well as the songwriter (if known). That way you get we get the benefit of both the creator of the lyrics and the musical interpretation. But that's just IMHO. Game back on;-)

"Stay in The Game" by Helen Doron for Teen English
"I wanna play, not this way
Everybody wants to stay in the game
I know sometimes I can be naive
I would rather dream and still believe
Staying true to who you are,
Playing fair will get you far
Reality is not TV
It’s my friends and family
They are real, their love is free
They will be there watching out for me"
I even followed the rules (though the song may not be that well-known) to ask you both to stay, "family" is referenced by SueR ;-D
We are family
I've got all my sisters with me
We are family
Get up everybody and sing

And security guards trailed us to a record shop
We asked for Mojo Nixon

The Dead Milkmen
Laughing on the bus, playing games with the faces
She said the man in the gabardine suit was a spy

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

Hop on the bus, Gus, don't need to discuss much
Just drop off the key, Lee, and set yourself free.

All the men just call him "Sir"

Downtown
Where the folks are broke.

I waste my time whenever I like.
I'm feelin' okay, with my whiskey hangover.
Godsmack
Ah, the sun is blinding
I stayed up again

That that's not the way I want my story to end

Nothing can touch me
But why do I feel this party's over?
No pain
Inside
You're my protection
But how do I feel this good sober?

I said, I heard my mother,
She was praying (praying, praying, praying)
And the words that she said (the words that she said),
They still linger in my head (lingers in my head),
She said, "A child is born in this world,
He needs protection,
God, guide and protect us,
When we're wrong, please correct us.
(when we're wrong, correct us).
And stand by me." yeah!

I'm just beginning to see

Handcuffs can you get freaky
How far will you go to please me
Whips and chains girl are you down with that
Strange places searching for pleasure
I want you to meet me wherever
Wearing just an overcoat and hat
Happy birthday to Mr. Lover Lover......Shaggy
I'm in the middle of a chain reaction
You give me all the after midnight action
I want to get you where I can let you make all that love to me
I'm on a journey for the inspiration
To anywhere and there ain't no salvation
I need you to get me nearer to you
So you can set me free
Diana Ross
Bee Gees wrote it for her

Twinkling gifts from a puzzling god
One soul now
Journey out into the fields
One soul now

You'll remember me when the west wind moves upon the fields of barley
You'll forget the sun in his jealous sky as we walk in fields of gold
So she took her love for to gaze awhile upon the fields of barley
In his arms she fell as her hair came down among the fields of gold

My sinful glare at nothing holds thoughts of death behind it
Skeletons in my mind commence tearing at my sanity
Vessels in my brain carry death until my birth
Come and die with me forever
Share insanity
Do you want to die?!?
The waves of blood are rushing near, pounding at the walls of lies
Turning off my sanity, reaching back into my mind
Non-rising body from the grave showing new reality
What I am, what I want, I'm only after death
-Jeffery John Hanneman

I had a brother at Khe Sanh fighting off the Viet Cong
They're still there, he's all gone
He had a woman he loved in Saigon
I got a picture of him in her arms now

The Eastern World, it is explodin'
Violence flarin, bullets loadin'
You're old enough to kill, but not for votin'
You don't believe in violence, but what's that gun you're totin'?
And even the Jordan River has bodies floatin'
Barry McGuire
o you believe in magic in a young girl's heart
How the music can free her, whenever it starts
And it's magic, if the music is groovy
It makes you feel happy like an old-time movie
I'll tell you about the magic, and it'll free your soul
But it's like trying to tell a stranger 'bout rock and roll
The Lovin' Spoonful
Anytime you want to you can turn me onto

Can't control the quivering inside

THE Ramones
This old airport's got me down-it's no earthly good to me. Cause I'm stuck here on the ground,cold and drunk as I can be. Can't jump a jet plane,like you can a freight train.So I'd best be on my way,in the early morning rain. Gordon Lightfoot,also Peter.Paul and Mary
So kiss me and smile for me

Shadows grow so long before my eyes
And they're moving across the page

Want to tell you I love your way every day
Want to be with you night and day

You gave a promise to me, yeah
And you broke it, you broke it, oh no
These eyes watched you bring my world to an end

Being close to you is almost heaven
But seeing you can only do so much
It hurts me so, to know, your heart's a treasure
And that my heart's forbidden to touch

Foghat
Well if walls could talk
Man, the stories they'd tell
Holding up the roof on a cheap motel
Holding up the roof on a cheap motel
You can rent 'em all night
But they're cheaper by the hour
The towels are clean
But they still smell sour
The night clerk's smiling
'Cause he's usually stoned
But you can do out there
What you can't do at home
There's a cigarette burn
On the table by the bed
And a king James bible
That's never been read

When you get up in the morning and the light is hurt your head

Is hit that streets a-runnin' and try to beat the masses
And go get yourself some cheap sunglasses

A lot of grief reflecting on how we spend our time
I want to change things, I want to make a change
I'm tired of spending time, agonizing yesterdays
Shame on me, shame on you
Shame on every little thing

Could it bring somebody down
If I never made a sound again?
In your eyes you've already spread my thighs

(Turn around) every now and then I get a little bit lonely
And you're never coming 'round
(Turn around) every now and then I get a little bit tired
Of listening to the sound of my tears
(Turn around) every now and then I get a little bit nervous
That the best of all the years have gone by
(Turn around) every now and then I get a little bit terrified
And then I see the look in your eyes
(Turn around, bright eyes) every now and then I fall apart

The Byrds
Beyond the rules of religion
The cloth of conviction
Above all the competition
Where fact and fiction meet
There's no color lines or casts or classes
There is no fooling the masses
Whatever faith you practice
Whatever you believe
Heaven, heaven
What the hell is heaven?
Is there a home for the homeless?
Is there hope for the hopeless?

And in this crazy life, and through these crazy times

You're every song, and I sing along

Caroline laughs and it's raining all day
She loves to be one of the girls
She lives in the place in the side of our lives
Where nothing is ever put straight
She turns herself 'round and she smiles and she says
"This is it, that's the end of the joke'
And loses herself in her dreaming and sleep
And her lovers walk through in their coats
She's pretty in pink isn't she?
Pretty in pink isn't she?
The Psychedelic Furs
Sweet Caroline
Good times never seemed so good
I'd be inclined
To believe they never would
Neil Diamond
Oh Caroline
My life shined when you walked in
Oh Caroline
My world shined when you came in
And if i go all over the world
I wouldn't find another lover like you
And if i knew a million girls, Caroline
Go to the end of the world for your love
Go to the end of the world for your love
Cheap Trick
I'd give you everything and more that's for sure
I'd bring you diamond rings and things to your door
To thrill you with delight
I would give you diamonds bright
Double takes I will excite
Make you dream of me at night
For your love
The Yardbirds
People they tell me
As they look upon my skin and bones
You're ragged and you're dirty
Hardly worth your weight in gold
For all of your suffering
No one gives a good goddamn
It's all about the money, son
We doubt you understand
Yodelay-ho
They say your diamond is too rough

I'm very well acquainted with matters mathematical
I understand equations both the simple and quadratical
About binomal theorem I'm teeming with lots of news
With cheerful facts about the square of the hypotenuse

I used to be a renegade, I used to fool around
But I couldn't take the punishment, and had to settle down
Now I'm playing it real straight, and yes I cut my hair
You might think I'm crazy, but I don't even care
'Cause I can tell what's going on
It's hip to be square
It's hip to be square

Neon lights
Shimmering neon lights
And at the fall of night
This city's made of lights
Kraftwerk
The city lights
Pretty lights
Can warm the coldest nights
All the people going places
Smiling with electric faces
In a neon rainbow
The Box Tops
I can't change the world
Cause trying to make a difference
Makes it worse
It's just an observation
I can't ignore
That people should smile more
And people should smile more
But the lights are so bright that they blind you
Just one more
Meaningless scientific breakthrough
The more we know, the less we care
Newton Faulkner

When the lights go down in the city
And the sun shines on the bay
Do I want to be there in my city?
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Journey
'Cause I can see the sun rise on my way
I can see the road rise to meet me
I can feel the earth underneath my feet
And I can see the stars on top of me
And I say don't ever come down, come down
I need your light now, right now
Rebelution
They put a hot wire to my head
'Cause of the things I did and said
They made these feelings go away
A model citizen in every way
Your time has come, your second skin
Cost so high, the gain so low
May the road rise with you
May the road rise with you
May the road rise with you
May the road rise with you

yep, that's Johnny Rotten
Cause I've got friends in low places
Where the whiskey drowns
And the beer chases my blues away
And I'll be okay
I'm not big on social graces
Think I'll slip on down to the oasis
Oh, I've got friends in low places

Horace Tidas was murdered by the hatred

Inside your head, on every beat
And the beat's so loud, deep inside
The pressure's high, just to stay alive
"Cause the heat is on
Oh-wo-uh-oh, oh-wo-uh-oh
Caught up in the action

Tell me can you feel it
Tell me can you feel it
The heat is on!

Just a castaway
An island lost at sea
Another lonely day
With no one here but me
More loneliness than any man could bear
Rescue me before I fall into despair

I hope that someone gets my
I hope that someone gets my
I hope that someone gets my

Through faith and love

So winter froze the river
And winter birds don't sing
So winter makes you shiver
But time is gonna bring you spring
So he swears he'll never marry, says that cuddles are a curse
Just tell him plain
You're on the next train
If love don't get there first
Don't let the devil fool ya
Here comes a dove
Nothing cures like time and love

Our God,heaven cannot hold Him,nor can earth sustain. Heaven and earth shall flee away,when He comes to reign:In the bleak mid-winter,a stable-place sufficed, the Lord God Almighty-Jesus Christ. From a poem by Christina Rossetti,made into a Christmas hymn.My favorite version is performed by James Taylor
The lover of life's not a sinner
The ending is just a beginner
The closer you get to the meaning
The sooner you'll know that you're dreaming
So, it's on and on and on
Oh, it's on and on and on
It goes on and on and on
Heaven and Hell

And the sign said anybody caught trespassing, would be shot on sight
So, I jumped on the fence and yelled at the house
"Hey, what gives you the right? To put up a fence to keep me out
Or to keep mother nature in
If God was here He'd tell you to your face, man, you're some kind of sinner."
Sign, sign, everywhere a sign
Blockin out the scenery, breaking my mind
Do this, don't do that, can't you read the sign?

I'm a bitch, I'm a lover
I'm a child, I'm a mother

I'm nothing in between
You know you wouldn't want it any other way
Meredith Brooks
And the only things you want to see are kitsch
And the only thing you want to be is rich
Your little pink up-pointed nose begins to twitch
I know you know you're just a little bitch!

Caught on to what was happening
That Christmas magic's brought this tale
To a very happy ending
The Waitresses
Happy is a yuppie word
Nothing in the world could fail me now

Happy is a yuppie word (word)

i went down to the DMV
the DMV on east state street
asked me "where do you call home?"
said "i don't have a place of my own"
asked her "what should i put on the form?"
she told me to lie
she told me to lie
lying on every government form
lying to yourself when you lock the door
cause i don't need no temporary home
i got mine just where i roam
i don't need no temporary home

Come to the barbecue and sit by my side
We couldn't choose a better night if we tried
Can't you imagine what a thrill it will be
Pickin' a chicken with me
It's so romantic, the moon up above
Is extra bright on a night such as this
Pullin' a wishbone with someone you love
Is almost certain to end with a kiss
So come to the barbecue, my darling my dear
I'm so in love with you and when you are near

And the world will be as one
