Figured I'd steal the Bee Gees lyrics from Val for the title. :)

The previous edition was getting pretty large so....

"So slow down, slow down.
You're taking me over.
And so we drown, so we drown.
Stop taking me over."

they may be only words, but they sure are incredible!

"She doesn't mind, whatever I say, whatever I say
Don't really want to change a thing, I want to stay this way forever

Blue, blue jeans I wear them every day,
there's no particular reason to change
my thoughts are getting banal, I can't help it
but I won't pull out hair another day

You know it's to be with you"

"I loved the words you wrote to me
But that was bloody yesterday
I can't survive on what you send
Every time you need a friend

I saw two shooting stars last night
I wished on them but they were only satellites
Is it wrong to wish on space hardware
I wish, I wish, I wish you'd care

I don't want to change the world
I'm not looking for a new England
I'm just looking for another girl"

If I'm not mistaken...that would be Mr. Billy Brag, right?

Great song. ;)

'I drove all night
to get to you.
is that alright?
I drove all night,
crept in your room,
right before you sleep..'

People I know,
places I go
make me feel toungue-tied.
I can see how
people look down.
they're on the inside.

here's where the story ends.
People I see,
weary of me
showing my good side.
I can see how
people look down.
I'm on the outside.

here's where the story ends.

it's that little souvenir
of a terrible year
which makes my eyes feel sore...

but the only thing I ever really
wanted to say
was wrong, was wrong, was wrong.

This is now my third day in Ottawa climbing through network rooms tracing cables and cross-connects, rationalizing token ring controllers and collapsing routers. Yuck!

"Oh, give me land, lots of land under starry skies above,
Don't fence me in.
Let me ride through the wide open country that I love,
Don't fence me in.
Let me be by myself in the evenin' breeze,
And listen to the murmur of the cottonwood trees,
Send me off forever but I ask you please,
Don't fence me in.
...
I want to ride to the ridge where the west commences
And gaze at the moon till I lose my senses
And I can't look at hovels and I can't stand fences
Don't fence me in."

You're forcing me to post this Bogie...

From this Valley they say you are going
We will miss your bright eyes and sweet smile
For they say your are taking the sunshine
That has brightened our pathways a while
Come and sit by my side if you love me
Do not hasten to bid me adieu
Just remember the Red River Valley
And the cowgirl who loved you so true.

Did the Talking Heads cover that one too? :p

It's good to be home again.

Here's one for Vilji. Good luck hon. :)

"Well i didn't see much future
When i left the christian brother's school
So i waved goodbye with a wistful smile
And left the girls of Tuam
Now when i'm reminiscing
About the pre-fabs and my old friends
I know that they'll be changed or gone
By the time i get home again.

And i wish i was on the N17
(stone walls and the grass is green)
I wish i was on the N17
(stone walls and the grass is green)
Travelling with just my thoughts and dreams"

"All day
Hiding from the sun
Waiting for the golden one
Waiting for your fame
After the parade has gone

Outside was a happy place
Every face had a smile like the golden face
For a second"

~just a little human league for today~

...no they didn't cover that one. :p I'm not sure who did. Here is one to make up for it.

And she was glad about it
No doubt about it
She isn't sure where she's gone
No time to think about what to tell them
No time to think about what she's done
And she was
And she was looking at herself
And things were looking like a movie
She has a pleasant elevation
She's moving out in all directions
Joining the world of missing persons
And she was
Missing enough to feel alright
And she was

"I get the news I need on the weather report.
I gather all the news I need from the weather report.
Hey, I've got nothing to do today but smile.
...here I am
The only living boy in New York

Half of the time we're gone but we don't know where,
And we don't know where.

Tom, get your plane right on time.
I know you've been eager to fly.
Hey let your honesty shine, shine, shine
...like it shines on me
The only living boy in New York."

I am tired of loving this way

I am tired of watching me hurt you
I am tired of being the tear drops on your face i am tired of loving this way

I know your every weakness i can find one in everything you say i am tried of loving this way.... .

I am not what you really need i am not the one in your dreams
i can see it in your eys this isn't the way it should feel i don't know how we got here
love is no longer applied
if it is just how it is how
can we go on like this?
Baby what do you say?
i am tired of loving this way....

I'll set your heart free and if you're mine you will come flying back to me someday, but i am tried of loving this way

I am taken you with me...
Like a wound in my heart you will have your place

I am not what you really need i am not the one in your dreams i can see it in your eyes
this isn't the way it should feel
i dont' know how we got here
love is no longer applied.
What do we say?
I am tired of loving this way..........

Hello Milani. It's nice to see you in here. :)

I just know that one day soon you'll have a happier song to sing. :)

This isn't one of them. It's just been running through my head this morning. LOL

"See these tears so blue
An ageless heart that can never mend
These tears can never dry
A judgement made can never bend

See these eyes so green
I can stare for a thousand years
Just be still with me
You wouldn't believe what I've been through

Well you've been so long
It's been so long
And I've been putting out fire with gasoline
Putting out fire with gasoline."

"And if a double-decker bus
Crashes into us
To die by your side
Is such a heavenly way to die
And if a ten-ton truck
Kills the both of us
To die by your side
Well, the pleasure - the privilege is mine"

"swallowing diamonds
a cutting throat
your teeth when you grin
reflecting beams on tombstones

a jamboree of surprises
playing russian roulette
or the lucky dip
a clenched fist to your heart
coal dust on your lungs

a silver tongue for the chosen one
heavy magnum in your side
or a bloody thorn
skating bullets on angel dust
in a dead sea of fluid mercury
baby piano cries
under your heavy
index and thumb
pull some strings
let them sing"


"A police car and a screaming siren
Pnuematic drill and ripped up concrete
A baby wailing and stray dog howling
The screech of brakes and lamplight blinking

That's entertainment
That's entertainment

A smash of glass and the rumble of boots
An electric train and a ripped up 'phone booth
Paint splattered walls and the cry of a tomcat
Lights going out and a kick in the balls

That's entertainment
That's entertainment"
*************************************
"Oh let me see your beauty when the witnesses are gone
Let me feel you moving like they do in Babylon
Show me slowly what I only know the limits of
Dance me to the end of love
Dance me to the end of love

Dance me to the wedding now, dance me on and on
Dance me very tenderly and dance me very long
We're both of us beneath our love, we're both of us above
Dance me to the end of love
Dance me to the end of love

Dance me to the children who are asking to be born
Dance me through the curtains that our kisses have outworn
Raise a tent of shelter now, though every thread is torn
Dance me to the end of love

Dance me to your beauty with a burning violin
Dance me through the panic till I'm gathered safely in
Touch me with your naked hand, touch me with your glove
Dance me to the end of love
Dance me to the end of love"
**************************************
"Are histories of insanity intruding on the sane
And even if your problem is the problem, do we have to play those games?
When a heartache is enough for anyone to shoulder
See that's the trouble with reality
It's taken far too seriously,
Do hope God is good to me
And Santa Claus to the children

Celebrate. This party's over, I'm going ... home."

"It was many and many a year ago,
In a kingdom by the sea,
That a maiden there lived whom you may know
By the name of ANNABEL LEE;
And this maiden she lived with no other thought
Than to love and be loved by me.

I was a child and she was a child,
In this kingdom by the sea;
But we loved with a love that was more than love-
I and my Annabel Lee;
With a love that the winged seraphs of heaven
Coveted her and me.

And this was the reason that, long ago,
In this kingdom by the sea,
A wind blew out of a cloud, chilling
My beautiful Annabel Lee;
So that her highborn kinsman came
And bore her away from me,
To shut her up in a sepulchre
In this kingdom by the sea.

The angels, not half so happy in heaven,
Went envying her and me-
Yes!- that was the reason (as all men know,
In this kingdom by the sea)
That the wind came out of the cloud by night,
Chilling and killing my Annabel Lee.

But our love it was stronger by far than the love
Of those who were older than we-
Of many far wiser than we-
And neither the angels in heaven above,
Nor the demons down under the sea,
Can ever dissever my soul from the soul
Of the beautiful Annabel Lee.

For the moon never beams without bringing me dreams
Of the beautiful Annabel Lee;
And the stars never rise but I feel the bright eyes
Of the beautiful Annabel Lee;
And so, all the night-tide, I lie down by the side
Of my darling- my darling- my life and my bride,
In the sepulchre there by the sea,
In her tomb by the sounding sea."

"I decree today that life is
simply taking and not giving...

...It just isn't like the old days anymore,
No, it just isn't like those days
Am I still ill?"

"Efficient, logical, effective, and practical.
Using all resources to the best of our ability.
Changing, designing, adapting our mentalities.
Improving our abilities for a better way of life.
...
These are the little children, the future in their hands.
When all God's children on this Earth inherit all our plans.
These are the lies they tell us. That this is the only way.
When all God's children on the Earth will evermore be saved."

Nothing is sacred,
so give me your soul, my love.
Nothing is wasted
on someone like you.
...
and there's nothing I can do.
to be near you.
there's nothing I can do.
cause you don't exist.

images of heaven
that take me to hell.
images of heaven,
of something to sell.

lol.

I've read this somewhere else recently. :)

"So many people
Can't express what's on their minds.
Nobody knows them
Nobody ever will.
Until their backs are broken
Their dreams are stolen.
When they can't get what they want
Well then they're gonna get angry.
Well, it ain't written in the papers
But it's written on the walls,
The way this country's
Divided to fall.
So the cranes are moving
On the sky-line
Try to knock-down
This town.
But the stains on the Heartland
Can never be removed.
For this country is sick,
Sad and confused.

Here comes another winter
Of long shadows and high hopes.
Here comes another winter
Waiting for utopia, waiting for hell to freeze over."

uh,,bogie's getting deep. that's very cool.. :)


:p

China,
decorates our table.
funny how the cracks don't
seem to show.
Pour the wine, dear.
you say we'll take a holiday,
but we never can agree on
where to go.

Sometimes
I think you want me to touch you.
but how can I
when you build a Great Wall around you?

"I'm trying not to move
It's just your ghost passing through
I said
I'm trying not to move
It's just your ghost passing through
And Now
I'm quite sure
There's a light in your platoon
I never seen a light move
Like yours..."
*****************************
"These are my lips
But they whisper sorrow
This is my voice
But it's telling lies
I know how to laugh
But I don't know happiness
And I must confess
Instead of spring--it's always winter
And my heart has always been a lonely hunter
Love tried to welcome me
But my soul drew back
Covered with dust and sin
Love tried to take me in
Love tried to break me..."

Heard these PSB lyrics this morning...

I heard what you said, and I can tell you it's true
I heard you've said that I am crazy about you
Turn in my sleep, the bad dream is over
Think of you and shall I ever recover?

Now, I want to wake up
How I want to wake up

I stood at the kitchen-sink, my radio played
Songs like 'Tainted Love' and 'Love Is Strange'
As I listened and the words hit my ears
I cried sudden tears

Now, I want to wake up
How I want to wake up

It's mad, to be in love with someone else
When you're in love with him, she's in love with me
But you know as well as I do
I can never think of anyone but you

Play with fire, play with guns
It's easy to impress someone
Turning in my sleep, you call me a fool
To fall in love, is it so uncool?

Now, I want to wake up...with you

This Stevie Nicks song "Destiny" has helped me through some rough times:

Crying in the morning trying to be strong
Waiting for the spring to turn into the fall
Love don't mean what it says at all
My destiny says that I'm destined to fall

My destiny is riding again
Rolling in the rain, unwinding in the wind
My destiny is fighting again
Secrely unwinding
What it was that I was supposed to say
To say to you today

Well, it wasn't like the others, it was nothing at all
It wasn't like anything, it was easy to fall
Love don't mean what it says at all
My destiny says that I'm destined for it all

Crying...

Still crying in the morning trying to be strong
Waiting for the spring to turn into the fall
Love never meant what is said at all
My destiny proved I was destined to fall

I am crying...I am trying to be strong
Heartbroken...unspoken...
You were nothing like the others
All gone...nothing left at all

Taking on water,
Sailing a restless sea
From a memory,
A fantasy.
The wind carries
Into white water,
Far from the islands.
Don't you know you're

Never going to...
Get to France.
Mary, Queen of Chance, will they find you?
Never going to...
Get to France.
Could a new romance ever bind you?

Walking on foreign ground,
Like a shadow,
Roaming in far off
Territory.
Over your shoulder,
Stories unfold, you're
Searching for sanctuary.
You know you're

Never going to...
Get to France.
Mary, Queen of Chance, will they find you?
Never going to...
Get to France.
Could a new romance ever bind you?

I see a picture
By the lamp's flicker.
Isn't it strange how
Dreams fade and shimmer?

When i saw your face
I became a prisoner of your eyes
And i would do most anything
To stay and be with you.

How did we go wrong?
I can't believe it's over
Tell me why it's happening?
Who threw it all away?

Don't you hear me crying?
Take me in your arms again

Don't you hear me crying?
Take me in your arms again

Bring back what i'm living for
You're all i'm thinking of
Take me home to paradise
Give me back your love

No one takes the blame
You and i have wondered
We gave all we could to this
It's time to face the truth

Now we realize
All we had is over
Comes an end to everything
There's nothing left to give

Don't you hear me crying?
Take me in your arms again

Don't you hear me crying?
Take me in your arms again

Bring back what i'm living for
You're all i'm thinking of
Take me home to paradise
Give me back your love

Bring back what i'm living for
You're all i'm thinking of
Take me home to paradise
Give me back your love

Stop the heartache
We can try and start again
End the heart break
A little time - will help to ease the pain

Going through a Mike Oldfield phase at the moment. :)

"The trees that whisper in the evening
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
Sing a song of sorrow and grieving
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
All she saw was a silhouette of a gun
Far away on the other side.
He was shot six times by a man on the run
And she couldn't find how to push through

I stay
I pray
I see you in heaven far away

I stay
I pray
I see you in heaven, one day

Four am in the morning
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
I watched your vision forming
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
Star was light in a silvery night
Far away on the other side
Will you come to talk to me this night
But she couldn't find how to push through"

Not really New Wave, but healing all the same. :)


Funny how love comes and goes
With the tears that fill my life does it show
So listen to my heart beat once again
Because of you I hope this feeling never ends

Silly me
I fell in love again
We started out as friends
You'd think I would have learned from the hurt before
Foolish me
Should I have closed the door
Promised, even swore to never love this way
Oh foolish me

They say that love's a chance you take
You know I've had my share
But when the nights get oh so cold I need you there
They say that love's a chance you take
You know I've had my share
But when the nights get oh so cold I need you there

Silly me
I fell in love again
We started out as friends
You'd think I would have learned from the hurt before
Foolish me

hold me,
hold me up so high,
and never let me down.
hold me,
hold me up so high,
to touch the sky
just one more time.
take me in your arms tonight.
take me,
take me
in your arms just one more time.
just one more time.

(The Cure)

"And the sun shines down all on the ground
Yeah and the grass is oh so green
And my heart is still and I've got the will
And I don't really feel so mean
Here it comes, here it comes
Here it comes right now
And it comes right in on time
Well it eases me and it pleases me
And it satisfies my mind

And it seems like
(seems like)
And it feels like
(feels like)
And it seems like
(seems like)
Oh yes it feels like
(feels like)
A brand new day....."

If you were with me tonight
I'd sing to you just one more time
A song for a heart so big God wouldn't let it live
May angels lead you in
Hear you me, my friends
On sleepless roads the sleepless go
May angels lead you in

"Hear you me," Jimmy Eat World

...I stopped by the record store last night on my way home from work, to get a birthday gift for my impossibly huge 14-year-old cousin. Picked up a new CD, and I listened to it at work today. This is a beautiful song, and came at the right time for me.

"Follow the light that glows
Through your bedroom window
Tonight, tonight
The fading twilight.
There's a hollow deep in the woods
Where you know you're crazy
To go, to go
Not even meant to know

There are...
Pictures in the dark, I see all around.
Voices calling underground
And I'm watching the stars since the
World was formed.

One, two, three.

Pictures in the dark, I see
Morpheus comes to me.
Pictures in the dark, I see.
Aurora sets you free.

And in the deepest dark
You come to a maze in
The night, the night
The fading twilight.
And you shiver the glistening path
Where you know you're crazy
To go, to go
Not even meant to know.

There are...
Pictures in the dark, I see all around.
Voices calling underground
And I'm watching the stars since the
World was found.

One, two, three.

Pictures in the dark, I see
Morpheus comes to me.
Pictures in the dark, I see.
Aurora sets you free.

This night will never end.
You can only fly in your dreams.
Midnight will be your friend.
Drift away on starlight beams.
Clocks are ticking the night away.
You can only fly until dawn ascends"

this forum needs more attention......

"Promises made for convenience
Aren't necessarily
What we need
Truth is a word
That's lost its meaning
The truth has become
Merely half-truth
So lie to me
Like they do it in the factory
Make me think
That at the end of the day
Some great reward
Will be coming my way"

"Somewhere in the distance
Hidden from view
Suspended in the atmosphere
Waiting to come through

Sometimes it's so far away
Sometimes it's very near
sound being carried by the wind
Just loud enough to hear

I feel its power within me
Bells ringing in my head
So often I have heard its cry
But forgotten what it said

It's a mystery, it's a mystery
I'm still searching for a clue
It's a mystery to me

A shot in the dark
The big question mark
In history
Is it a mystery
To you?"

"In a reflection of days gone by
I stayed awake all last night
When morning came, I was still unsure
To laugh or cry, I'm needin' more

And it's not easy to take the time
From all we need, we cannot hide
We live our dreams and all we find
Is bittersweet and full of pride

Ooh what have we done
Lift it up, lift a stone
I need every minute with you
No one else can do what'cha do what'cha

No one else can do what'cha do what'cha

This song always makes me smile

Teach me how to dream
help me make a wish
if I wished for you
would you make my wish come true
I'm a stranger here,strange as it may seem
Take me by the hand
Teach me how to dream


COOL BREEZE

Ever time I look at you
I wonder what goes on.
behind your happy smile,
is something really strong.

full moon
swims around.
full moon
swims around
all those secret nights.

time will fly,
tonight
time will die

Every time you look at me.
I wonder what goes on.
if only I could swim
in those drowning
thoughts.
tonight...

Let's roll down the stairs
soon we'll follow everyone.
let's roll down the stairs,

follows everyone.

time flies, only with you.
time dies,
only with you.

Time

(Xis, that's the coolest.
I miss that song : (
thanks for posting it ;)

vilji - funny how that song holds so many truths. ;)

This one if for lostboy.

"Gone and blown it all, how can you say
It doesn't matter much to me?
A dumb mistake too much to pay
A shattered heart in love's debris

Gone and blow it all and then you say
This can't be happening to me
A dumb mistake too much to pay
A shattered heart in love's debris

Don't know what you've got 'til it's gone
The thrill of the chase then it's gone
Only the hurt to prove that it ever went on

And life is a wonderful thing
When you're humming the words to a love song
Do what you wanna do be who you want to be

When I'm in your arms I'm strong
There's nowhere I'd rather be
We shine for liberty, life and the pursuit of pleasure"

Thanks Xis


Fragile
Like a baby in your arms
Be gentle with me
I'd never willingly
Do you harm

Apologies
Are all you ever seem to get from me
But just like a child
You make me smile
When you care for me
And you know...

It's a question of lust
It's a question of trust
It's a question of not letting
What we've built up
Crumble to dust
It is all of these things and more
That keep us together

Independence
Is still important for us though
(We realise)
It's easy to make
The stupid mistake
Of letting go (do you know what I mean)

My weaknesses
You know each and every one (it frightens me)
But I need to drink
More than you seem to think
Before I'm anyone's
And you know...

It's a question of lust
It's a question of trust
It's a question of not letting
What we've built up
Crumble to dust
It is all of these things and more
That keep us together

Kiss me goodbye
When I'm on my own
But you know that I'd
Rather be home

It's a question of lust
It's a question of trust
It's a question of not letting
What we've built up
Crumble to dust
It is all of these things and more
That keep us together

"We can go for a walk where it's quiet and dry
And talk about precious things
Like love and law and poverty
Oh, these are the things that kill me


We can go for a walk where it's quiet and dry
And talk about precious things
But the rain that flattens my hair ...
Oh, these are the things that kill me"

;)

"Everybody's looking for someone to follow
Finding the whole thing hard to swallow
Everybody's looking for a reason to live
If you're looking for a reason
I've a reason to give
Pleasure, little treasure"

you're right, Bogie,
Grace Jones def. rocks :)
my friend and I use to go around singing this song in the late 80's..
'I'm sick and tired of all this bullsh**
same sh**
bulls**'

and the wise words:
"I'm not perfect,
but I'm perfect for you."

;)

I ain't gon give it, you ain't gon get it,
If I don't give it, how you gonna get it?

I ain't gon give it, you ain't gon get it,
If I don't give it, how you gonna get it?"

Grace Jones Rocks. :D

Blind hope, blind vision
Blind centre, one centre
Blind living and seeing
Blind hell, blind hell
Blind vision
And no reasons
For action
Blind words

Blind visions
And no reasons
No reasons
For actions

....

In a dream when I'm reading pages
Pages full of words
It's, it's getting hard, it's not
It's not, it, it
It's getting hard
It's getting harder
Oooooooh!
It's getting hard

i always thought this one was good
"remember you can fill up the sky
you dont have to give in"

but my favorite is
"Kick out the gloom, kick out the blues
tear out the pages with all the bad news"
(and pretty much the entire rest of 'doing the unstuck')

"Now's the time to have some big ideas
Now's the time to make some firm decisions
We saw the Buddha in a bar down south
Talking politics and nuclear fission
We see him now and he's all washed up
Moving on into the body of a beetle
Getting ready for the long long crawl
He ain't nothing---he ain't nothing at all

We're on the road and we're gunning for the Buddha
We know his name and he musn't get away
We're on the road and we're gunning for the Buddha
It would take one shot---to blow him away"

Bogie's so sweet :)

"Come with me
on a journey beneath the skin.
come with me
on a journey under the skin.
We will look together
for the Pan within.."


prob my favorite one on that cd. ;)

thanks, Bogie:)

"Did you do too many drugs?
I did too many drugs.
Did you do too many drugs, Baby?

I need a date to the prom
Would you like to come along?
Nobody will go to the prom with me, Baby.

I was born to soon, you were born too late
But everytime I look at that ugly lake
It reminds me of me. It reminds me of me."
*************************************
"A poet walks amongst the gods.
But jealous men have pulled me down.
Now exiled in a foreign land
I coax my demons into life
While people cross themselves and say
The Devil is an Englishman.

In earthly body, human form
I mingle with the noblemen.
Young girls fall pleading at my feet
And I defile them one-by-one
Deflowering half of London Town.
The Devil is an Englishman.
The Devil is an Englishman.

A nest of tiny scorpions
Are breeding in my cranium.
Poet Laureate of hell.
The Devil is an Englishman."
**********************************
"When I was a young boy
My mamma said to me,
There's only one girl in the world for you
But she probably lives in Tahiti.

I'd go the whole wide world
Go the whole wide world
Just to find her.
I'd go the whole wide world
Go the whole wide world
Find out where they hide her.

Or maybe she's in the Bahamas
Where the carribbean sea is blue.
Lying around on a moonlit beach
Because nobody's told her 'bout you.

I'd go the whole wide world
Go the whole wide world
Just to find her.
I'd go the whole wide world
Go the whole wide world
Find out where they hide her."

Bogie's lyrics are great

'the devil is an Englishman'...?

(gotta love it
:p

:D

"Good morning record buyers.
Here I am at six o'clock in the morning
Spinning around on your record player
Brought to you by one of the wonders of modern technology
Known as stereo.
Whereby, even at this early hour of the morning
-agile, as I am-
I can hop....
From this speaker over here.
To this speaker over here.
Pretty nifty huh?
Well if most of you aren't impressed by that
Here's this........"

hey now
hey now, now.
sing this corroison to me.

hey now,
hey now, now..

I've got nothing to say I ain't said before.
the _______need no more.
I don't need no one to understand
why the blood runs from the higher hand of God..
floodland and river apart, run cold..
burn,,cold burn..like a healing.."

******************************
"Les yeux dans visage.
eyes without a face.
such a human waste.
you're eyes without a face.

well, you hear the music,
you make it slip
__________
they'll _______.
______ over Las Vegas,
whew, ______ cool.
hanging out by the state line,
turning holy water into wine.
bringing it down.... ohh..
I'm ______
__________
looking at you,
you're out there, so
say your prayers.
say all your prayers......"

(say What?!) help, please :confused: :)

Sorry Hon,
I always had trouble with that one too. :) I know the odd word but not enough to scribble down.

"I,
I will be king
And you
You will be queen
Though nothing
Will drive them away
We can beat them
Just for one day
We can be Heroes
Just for one day

And you,
You can be mean
And I,
I'll drink all the time
'Cause we're lovers
And that is a fact
Yes we're lovers
And that is that

Though nothing
Will keep us together
We could steal time
Just for one day
We can be Heroes
For ever and ever
What d'you say?"
*****************************
"I feel guilt, I feel guilt
Though I know I've done no wrong
I feel guilt.
I feel guilt, I feel guilt
Though I ain't done nothing wrong
I feel guilt.

I feel bad, I feel bad
Though I know I've done no wrong
I feel bad.
I feel bad, so bad
Though I ain't done nothing wrong
I feel bad.

I never lied to my lover
But if I did, I would admit it.
If I could get away with murder
I take my gun and I'd commit it.

I never gave to the rich
I never stole from the poor.
And like a curious child
Just give me more, more, more, more, more, more, more

I feel blood, I feel blood
I can feel it in my veins
It's not enough.

I never stole a scarf from Harrod's
But if I did you wouldn't miss it.
I never stole a doll from Lovecraft
But if I did you know I'd kiss it.

I never stole from the rich
I never gave to the poor.
And like a curious child
I need more, more, more, more, more...."

You rescue me
You are my faith
My hope
My liberty
And when there is darkness all around
You shine bright for me
You are the guiding light

To me
To me
To me
You are a tower of strength to me

You are all passion and heart
When I lay in your embrace
And heaven is in your kiss
Salvation lies just a touch away

To me
To me
To me
You are a tower of strength to me
*********************************
Love is a stranger
In an open car
To tempt you in
And drive you far away

And I want you
And I want you
And I want you so
It's an obsession

Love is a danger
Of a different kind
To take you away
And leave you far behind
And love love love
Is a dangerous drug
You have to receive it
And you still can't
Get enough of the stuff

It's savage and it's cruel
And it shines like destruction
Comes in like the flood
And it seems like religion
It's noble and it's brutal
It distorts and deranges
And it wrenches you up
And you're left like a zombie

And I want you
And I want you
And I want you so
It's an obsession

It's guilt edged
Glamorous and sleek by design
You know it's jealous by nature
False and unkind
It's hard and restrained
And it's totally cool
It touches and it teases
As you stumble in the debris

And I want you
And I want you
And I want you so
It's an obsession


(Eurythmics:)

******************************
I've been waiting for so long
To come here now and sing this song
Don't be fooled by what you see
Don't be fooled by what you hear

This is a song to all my friends
They take the challenge to their hearts
Challenging preconceived ideas
Saying goodbye to long standing fears

Don't crack up, bend your brain, see both sides
Throw off your mental chains

I don't wanna be hip and cool
I don't wanna play by the rules
Not under the thumb of the cynical few
Or laden down by the doom crew

A little Leonard Cohen for someone I think can use it :)

"...
And they're handing down my sentence now
And I know what I must do
Another mile of silence while I'm
Coming back to you

There are many in your life
And many still to be
Since you are a shining light
There's many that you'll see
But I have to deal with envy
When you choose the precious few
Who've left their pride on the other side of
Coming back to you

Even in your arms I know
I'll never get it right
Even when you bend to give me
Comfort in the night
I've got to have your word on this
Or none of it is true
And all I've said was just instead of
Coming back to you"

i like that, Bogie.

:) ;)


I love the mellow sound and music of this for some reason:)

Anyone who's ever had a heart
Wouldn't turn around and break it
and anyone who's ever played a part
Wouldn't turn around and hate it
Sweet Jane, sweet Jane
Sweet, sweet Jane

You're waiting for Jimmy down in the alley
Waiting there for him to come back home
Waiting down on the corner
and thinking of ways to get back home
Sweet Jane, sweet Jane
Sweet, sweet Jane

Anyone who's ever had a dream
Anyone who's ever played a part
Anyone who's ever been lonely
and anyone who's ever split apart
Sweet Jane, sweet Jane
Sweet, sweet Jane

Heavenly widened roses
seem to whisper to me when you smile
Heavenly widened roses
seem to whisper to me when you smile

La la la la, la la la,.....

been in a Smith's groove lately..

Take me out tonight
where there's music and there's people
who are young and alive
driving in your car
I never never want to go home
because I havent got one
anymore
take me out tonight
because I want to see people and I
want to see lights

driving in your car
oh please don't drop me home
because it's not my home, it's their
home, and Im welcome no more

and if a double-decker bus
crashes in to us
to die by your side
is such a heavenly way to die.
and if a ten ton truck
kills the both of us
to die by your side
well, the pleasure and the priviledge is mine.

take me out tonight
oh take me anywhere, I don't care....
and in the darken underpass
I thought, 'Oh God, my chance has come at last'
(but then a strange fear gripped me and I
just couldn't ask)


take me out tonight
take me anywhere, I dont care, I don't care..
just driving in your car
I never, never want to go home
because I haven't got one
I haven't got one...

The moon is in the gutter
And the stars wash down the sink
I am the king of the blues
I scape the clay off my shoes
And wade down the gutter and the moon

The moon blinds my eye with opal cataracts
As I cut through the saw-mills and the stacks,
Leaping over the gully where I would one day take Lucy
Then wash up my hands in the gutter and the moon.

Such a long way from home, just me and
The moon is in the gutter
All my plans are flushed down the drain
I wander lonely as a cloud
Over memories at her mound
Then lie down in the bitter gutter moon.

oh wow, one of my fav all time songs :) :D :alien:

And in the end we shall achieve in time
The thing they call divine
When all the stars will smile for me
When all is well and well is all for all
And forever after
Maybe in the meantime wait and see..

We love the all the all of you
Our lands are green and skies are blue
When all in all we're just like you
We love the all of you

And when I cry for me I cry for you
With tears of holy joy
And did I ever say I'd never play
Or fly toward the sun
Maybe in the meantime, something's gone..

Well that sounds fine so I'll see you sunshine
Give my love to the future of the humankind
Okay, okay, it's not okay.
While it's on my mind there's a girl that fits the crime
For a future love dream that I'm still to find
But in the meantime. ...

"Let me put my arms around your head
Gee, it's hot, let's go to bed
Don't forget to turn out the light
Don't laugh babe, it'll be alright
Pour me out another phone
I'll ring and see if your friends are home
Perhaps the strange ones in the dome
Can lend us a book we can read up alone

And try to get it on like once before
When people stared in Jagger's eyes and scored
Like the video films we saw

His name was always 'Buddy'
And he'd shrug and ask to stay
She'd sigh like Twig the Wonder Kid
And turn her face away
She's uncertain if she likes him
But she knows she really loves him
It's a crash course for the ravers
It's a Drive-in Saturday."

hey bogie :)
i thought your sig was part of this lyrics post at first..
sheesh, i was about to answer it. lol

pretty cool, anyway.

but hey; 'cause life sucks; that's why one can't be more like Endicott. (don't sweat the small stuff..)

(miss you) :)

"if you want to destroy
my sweater
pull this thread
as I walk away.."


:uhoh:

Miss you too sweetie. Always :)

Hope everything is going well.

As far as Endicott, I like the next part best of all:

"Why can't you be like Endicott?

'Cause I'm free.
Freer than a pirate
On a frigate out at sea.

Thank God I'm free"

:D

"All the money that e'er I had
I spent it in good company.
And all the harm that I ever did
Alas, it was to none but me.
And all I've done, for want of wit
To memory now, I can't recall.
So fill to me the parting glass.
Goodnight, and joy be with you all.

Oh, all the comrades e'er I had
They are sorry for my going away.
And all the sweethearts that ever I had
They wish me one more day to stay.
But since it falls unto my lot
That I should ride and you should not,
I'll gently rise and softly call
Goodnight, and joy be with you all.

If I had money enough to spend
And leisure time to sit a while
There is a fair maid in this town
That sorely has my heart beguiled.
Her rosy cheeks, and ruby lips
I own she has my heart enthralled.
So fill to me the parting glass.
Goodnight, and joy be with you all."

Now I sit with different faces
In rented rooms and foreign places
All the people I was kissing
Some are here and some are missing
In the nineteen-nineties
I never dreamt that I would get to be
The creature that I always meant to be
But I thought in spite of dreams
You'd be sitting somewhere here with me

'Cause we were never being boring
We had too much time to find for ourselves
And we were never being boring
We dressed up and fought, then thought: "Make amends"
And we were never holding back or worried that
Time would come to an end
We were always hoping that, looking back
You could always rely on a friend

(Pet Shop Boys 1990) :(

"When routine bites hard, and ambitions are low
And resentment rides high, but emotions won't grow
And we're changing our ways, taking different roads
Then love, love will tear us apart again --

Why is the bedroom so cold? You've turned away on your side
Is my timing that flawed - our respect run so dry?
Yet there's still this appeal that we've kept through our lives
Love, love will tear us apart again --

You cry out in your sleep - all my failings expose
There's a taste in my mouth, as desperation takes hold
Just that something so good just can't function no more
When love, love will tear us apart again -- "

"I've been thinking now
for a long time
How to go my own seperate way
It's a shame to think about yesterday
A shame
A shame

We've been running round
In our present state
Hoping help would come from above
But even angels, they
Make the same mistakes
In love
In love
In love

Now that we are lonely
Life seems to get hard
Alone, what a word lonely
Alone it makes me cry.
Thought-train set in motion
Wheels in and around
Express our emotion
Tracks up then it cracks down"

"I'm alone yeah I don't know if I can face the night
I'm in tears and the cryin' that I do it for you
I want you're love let's break the walls between us
Don't make it tough I'll put away my pride
Enough's enough, I've suffered and I've seen the light
Ba-yay-by

You're my angel come and save me tonight
You're my angel come and make it alright

Don't know what I'm gonna do about this feeling inside
Yes, it's true loneliness took me for a ride
Without your love I'm nothing but a beggar
Without your love a dog without a bone
What can I do? I'm sleepin' in this bed alone
Ba-yay-by

You're my angel come and save me tonight
You're my angel come and make it alright
Come and save me tonight

You're the reason I live
You're the reason I die
You're the reason I give when I break down and cry
Don't need no reason why
Baby, baby, ba-yay-by

You're my angel come and save me tonight
You're my angel come and make it alright
You're my angel come and save it tonight
You're my angel come and take me alright
Come and save me tonight
Come and save me tonight
Come and save me tonight
Come and save me tonight
Come and save me tonight."
