Everyday

Everyday, it's getting closer, going faster than a roller coaster.

A love like yours would surely come my way.

Everyday, seems a little faster, all my friends, they say go on up and ask her.

A love like yours would surely come my way.

Everyday it seems a little stronger; everyday it lasts a little longer.

Come what may, do you ever long for true love from me?

Everyday seems a little closer, going faster than a roller coaster.

A love like yours would surely come my way.

A love like yours would surely come my way, everyday.

Everyday it seems a little stronger; everyday it lasts a little longer.

Come what may, do you ever long for true love from me? Like I long from you baby.

Everyday seems a little closer, going faster than a roller coaster.

A love like yours would surely come my way.:guitarist

This song means the world to me. It reminds me of my brother, us both listening to floyd together before he died.

"Wish You Were Here"

So, so you think you can tell Heaven from Hell,

blue skies from pain.

Can you tell a green field from a cold steel rail?

A smile from a veil?

Do you think you can tell?

And did they get you to trade your heroes for ghosts?

Hot ashes for trees?

Hot air for a cool breeze?

Cold comfort for change?

And did you exchange a walk on part in the war for a lead role in a cage?

How I wish, how I wish you were here.

We're just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl, year after year,

Running over the same old ground.

What have we found? The same old fears.

Wish you were here.

Ray Lamontagne - You can Bring Me Flowers

My eyes have dried, my hands are tied

Nothing I can say

If you feel the need to go

I won't stand in your way

Sit and think

Drown in drink

Sing this sad, sad song

You can bring me flowers, baby

When I'm dead and gone

Fate has played his hand so cruel

There ain't nothing I can do

You say you lost your love for me

Me my love for you

Sit and cry

And say goodbye

And sing this sad, sad song

You can bring me flowers, baby

When I'm dead and gone

So when you're lying in his arms

Think of me and know

The choice you made it free and clear

It cost me a heavy toll

Sit and think

Drown in drink

And sing this sad, sad song

You can bring me flowers, baby

When I'm dead and gone

[minks]

One of my fave songs comes from a space and time for me when life was carefree and easy.





NAZARETH'S

This Flight Tonight



Look out the left the captain said

The lights down there that's where we'll land

Saw a falling star burning

High above the Las Vegas sand

It wasn't the one that you gave to me

That night down south between the trailers

Not the early one that you wish upon

Not the northern one that guides in the sailors

You've got that touch so gentle and sweet

But you've got that look so critical

Can't talk to you babe you know I get so weak

Sometimes I think that love is just mythical

Up there's a heaven, down there's a town

Blackness everywhere any little lights shine

Blackness, blackness draggin' me down

Come on light a candle in this heart of mine

Starbright, starbright, you've got the lovin' that I like

Turn this crazy bird around

Should not have got on this flight tonight

I'm drinkin' sweet champagne got the headphones up high

Can't numb you, can't drum you out of my mind



They're singin'-"Goodbye baby,

Baby bye-bye,

Ooh! love is blind"

Up go the flaps,down go the wheels

Hope you got your heat turned on baby

Hope they've finally fixed your automobile

Hope it's better when we meet again babe.

[Musiclover89]

Everybody Hurts - REM

When the day is long and the night, the night is yours alone,

When you're sure you've had enough of this life, well hang on

Don't let yourself go, 'cause everybody cries and everybody hurts sometimes

Sometimes everything is wrong. Now it's time to sing along

When your day is night alone, (hold on, hold on)

If you feel like letting go, (hold on)

When you think you've had too much of this life, well hang on

'Cause everybody hurts. Take comfort in your friends

Everybody hurts. Don't throw your hand. Oh, no. Don't throw your hand

If you feel like you're alone, no, no, no, you are not alone

If you're on your own in this life, the days and nights are long,

When you think you've had too much of this life to hang on

Well, everybody hurts sometimes,

Everybody cries. And everybody hurts sometimes

And everybody hurts sometimes. So, hold on, hold on

Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on

Everybody hurts. You are not alone

Look After You - The Fray



If I don't say this now I will surely break

As I'm leaving the one I want to take

Forgive the urgency but hurry up and wait

My heart has started to separate

Oh, oh,

Be my baby

Ohhhhh

Oh, oh

Be my baby

I'll look after you

There now, steady love, so few come and don't go

Will you won't you, be the one I'll always know

When I'm losing my control, the city spins around

You're the only one who knows, you slow it down

Oh, oh

Be my baby

Ohhhhhh

Oh, oh

Be my Baby

I'll look after you

And I'll look after you



If ever there was a doubt

My love she leans into me

This most assuredly counts

She says most assuredly

Oh, oh

Be my baby

I'll look after you

After You

Oh, oh

Be my baby

Ohhhhh

It's always have and never hold

You've begun to feel like home

What's mine is yours to leave or take

What's mine is yours to make your own

Oh, oh

Be my baby

Ohhhhh

Oh, oh

Be my baby

I'll look after you

You are so beautiful to me (repeat)

"Forty-six and 2" by Tool

Seriously. The most inspiring lyrics ever written. Its about finding your past shadows, coming to an understanding with their causes, and moving forward.

"My shadow's

Shedding skin and

I've been picking

Scabs again.

I'm down

Digging through

My old muscles

Looking for a clue.

I've been crawling on my belly

Clearing out what could've been.

I've been wallowing in my own confused

And insecure delusions

For a piece to cross me over

Or a word to guide me in.

I wanna feel the changes coming down.

I wanna know what I've been hiding in

My shadow.

Change is coming through my shadow.

My shadow's shedding skin

I've been picking

My scabs again.

I've been crawling on my belly

Clearing out what could've been.

I've been wallowing in my own chaotic

And insecure delusions.

I wanna feel the change consume me,

Feel the outside turning in.

I wanna feel the metamorphosis and

Cleansing I've endured within

My shadow

Change is coming.

Now is my time.

Listen to my muscle memory.

Contemplate what I've been clinging to.

Forty-six and two ahead of me.

I choose to live and to

Grow, take and give and to

Move, learn and love and to

Cry, kill and die and to

Be paranoid and to

Lie, hate and fear and to

Do what it takes to move through.

I choose to live and to

Lie, kill and give and to

Die, learn and love and to

Do what it takes to step through.

See my shadow changing,

Stretching up and over me.

Soften this old armor.

Hoping I can clear the way

By stepping through my shadow,

Coming out the other side.

Step into the shadow.

Forty six and two are just ahead of me."

Bruised But Not Broken - Joss Stone

Been alot that I've been through

I cried a tear a time or two

Baby, you know I cried some over you, yeah

Had my heart kicked to the ground

Love ripped me up and tore me down, baby

But that ain't enough to break me

Cuz I'll rise above it

And I'll pick myself up

And I'll dust the pain off my heart

[CHORUS]

And I'll be alright

And I'll love again

And the wounds will mend

I'm bruised but not broken

And the pain will fade

I'll get back on my feet

It's not the end of me

My heart is still open

I'm bruised but not broken

Been alot of tears stained nights

I thought the tears were here for life, baby

The hurt came on and held on tight, yeah

Took a chance, I took a fall

Love broke my heart and shattered all my dreams

But I won't be down on my knees

Cuz I'll rise above it

And I'll pick myself up

And I'll shake the rain out of my heart

[CHORUS]

And I'll be alright

And I'll love again

And the wounds will mend

I'm bruised but not broken

And the pain will fade

I'll get back on my feet

It's not the end of me

My heart is still open

I'm bruised but not broken

Gonna pick my heart up

Take my life back

Shake the hurt away

Pull myself together, put the pieces back in place

I learned love's so hard

Love left my soul scarred

I was shattered inside

[CHORUS]

And I'll be alright

And I'll love again

And the wounds will mend

I'm bruised but not broken

And the pain will fade

I'll get back on my feet

It's not the end of me

My heart is still open

I'm bruised but not broken

JOSS STONE LYRICS

"Torn & Tattered"

Might as well get used to you

End it all like you said you'll do

Cause talk is cheap boy out on the street

Cause people know when there's heat

[Chorus:]

I'm torn and I'm tattered

Sick and tired living my life singing the same old song

Oh I, I feel a little battered

Looks like I'm living my life running a one-man show

Oh, I, I don't know where the feeling's gone

I'll survive, I'll stay alive, I'm gonna carry on

Tell me tell me, won't you tell me

Where's my mister man

Who will try to deny me now

Everything I plan to be

[Chorus]

Riding the rodeo

Up and down we go, yeah

Where we'll end up

I just don't know

Like a rodeo

Down we go

(Riding the rodeo

up and down we go [4x])

[Chorus]

I got to walk away

I got to end this pain

I'm gonna make it through

See, I'm getting over you [2x]

I'll stay, stay alive

I'll stay alive

Look at my face

(Riding a rodeo, so high, so fly [2x])

(I don't know)

I'm torn and I'm tattered

Joss Stone- She's my girl! :-4

One more...

"Cigarettes"

Got my headlights shining

Down an old dirt road

Smoke my cigarettes

I should quit I know

The radio's playing

Old country songs

Someone's leaving, someone's cheating

On and on

I think I might like

The quiet nights

Of this empty life

[Chorus]

'Cause someday maybe

Somebody will love me like I need

And someday I won't have to prove

'Cause somebody will see

all my worth but until then

I'll do just fine on my own

With my cigarettes

And this old dirt road

See I left another

Good man tonight

I wonder if he'll miss me

Lord knows I tried

But I think that maybe

The thing that I did wrong

Was put up with his bullshit

For far too long

I think I might like

The quiet nights

Of this empty life



I ain't gonna sleep

I don't wanna dream

About the things that I used to need

I ain't gonna cry

Or go on living lies

I'm just gonna drive

[KB.]

I am a grown ass thirty year old man who likes Sade. If you don't think that is becoming of a man I can still rip your tonsils out and eat them raw to prove my manhood.



Sade - By Your Side Lyrics

you think i'd leave your side baby

you know me better than that

you think i'd leave you down when you're down on your knees

i wouldn't do that

i'll tell you you're right when you want

and if only you could see into me

ha ah ah ah ah ah

oh when you're cold

i'll be there

hold you tight to me

when you're on the outside baby and you can`t get in

i will show you you're so much better than you know

when you're lost and you're alone and you cant get back again

i will find you darling and i will bring you home

and if you want to cry

i am here to dry your eyes

and in no time

you'll be fine

you think i'd leave your side baby

you know me better than that

you think id leave you down when you're down on your knees

i wouldn't do that

i'll tell you you're right when you want

and if only you could see into me

ha ah ah ah ah ah

oh when you're cold

i'll be there

hold you tight to me

when you're low

i'll be there

by your side baby

oh when you're cold

i'll be there

hold you tight to me

oh when you're low

i'll be there

by your side baby

Good one.

[poetic Poet]

:guitarist:guitaristNow I know

That I can’t make you stay

But where’s your heart

But where’s your heart

But where’s your...

I know

There’s nothing I could say

To change that heart

To change that heart

To change...

So many

Bright lights been cast a shadow

But can I speak?

Well is it hard understanding

I’m incomplete

The life that’s so demanding

I get so weak

And all their souls are burning

I can’t speak

I am not afraid to keep on living

I am not afraid to walk this world alone

Honey if you stay, I’ll be forgiving

Nothing you can say can stop me going home

Can you see

My eyes are shining bright

Cause I’m out here

On the other side

Of the jet black

Broken mirror

And I’m so weak

Well is it hard understanding

I’m incomplete

And all their souls are burning

I get weak

I am not afraid to keep on living

I am not afraid to walk this world alone

Honey if you stay

I’ll be forgiven

Nothing you can say can stop me going

I am not afraid to keep on living

I am not afraid to walk this world alone

Honey if you stay

I’ll be forgiven

Nothing you can say can stop me going home

These bright lights are

glowing bright at me

These bright lights are

glowing bright at me

I said

I see you lying next to me

With words I thought I’d never speak

Awake and unfraid

Asleep or dead



I am not afraid to keep on living

I am not afraid to walk this world alone

Honey if you stay

I'll be forgiven

Nothing you can say can stop me going home

[poetic Poet]

"Cancer":)

Turn away,

If you could get me a drink

Of water 'cause my lips are chapped and faded

Call my aunt Marie

Help her gather all my things

And bury me in all my favorite colors,

My sisters and my brothers, still,

I will not kiss you,

'Cause the hardest part of this is leaving you.

Now turn away,

'Cause I'm awful just to see

'Cause all my hairs abandoned all my body,

Oh, my agony,

Know that I will never marry,

Baby, I'm just soggy from the chemo

But counting down the days to go

It just ain't living

And I just hope you know

That if you say (if you say)

Goodbye today (goodbye today)

I'd ask you to be true (cause I'd ask you to be true)

'Cause the hardest part of this is leaving you

'Cause the hardest part of this is leaving you

[KB.]

I had this sang to me a few days ago. Not all of it, but she did well from memory. Sirens, oh sweet sirens. I imagine I will make a nice pile of bones on that island.



Sophie B. Hawkins - Damn I Wish I Was Your Lover



That old dog has chained you up all right

Give you everything you need

To live inside a twisted cage

Sleep beside in empty rage

I had a dream I was your hero

Damn I wish I was your lover

I'd rock you till the daylight comes

Make sure you are smiling and warm

I am everything

Tonight I'll be your mother

I'll do such things to ease your pain

Free your mind and you won't feel ashamed

Open up gonna come inside

Gonna fill you up

Make you cry

This bloke can't stand to see you black and blue

I give you something sweet each time you

Come inside my jungle book

It's just too good

Don't say you'll stay

'Cause then you go away

Damn I wish I was your lover

I'll rock you till the daylight comes

Make sure you are smiling and warm

I am everything

Tonight I'll be your mother

I'll do such things to ease your pain

Free your mind and you won't feel ashamed

Shucks

For me there is no other

You're the only shoe that fits

I can't imagine I'll grow out of it

Damn I wish I was your lover

If I was your girl believe me

I'd turn on the Rolling Stones

We could groove along and feel much better

Let me in

I could do it forever and ever, ever n' ever

Give me an hour to kiss you

Walk through heaven's door I'm sure

We don't need no doctor to feel much better

Let me in

Forever and ever and ever and ever

I sat on the mountainside with peace of mind

I lay by the ocean making love to her with visions clear

Walked for days with no one near

And I return as chained and bound to you

Damn I wish I was your lover

I'll rock you till the daylight comes

Make sure you are smiling and warm

I have everything

Tonight I'll be your mother

I'll do such things to ease your pain

Free your mind and you won't feel ashamed

Shucks for me there is no other

You're the only shoe that fits

I can't imagine I'll grow out of it

Damn I wish I was your lover

Open up gonna come inside

Gonna fill you up

Make you cry





I replied with this, I can't carry a tune in a bucket so I just said it out loud.

Bad Day - Fuel

I had a bad day again

She said I would not understand

She left a note that said Im sorry, i

I had a bad day again

She spilled her coffee broke a shoelace

Smeared the lipstick on her face

Slammed the door and said Im sorry, i

I had a bad day again

And she swears theres nothing wrong

I hear her playing that same old song

She puts me up and puts me on

I had a bad day again

She said I would not understand

She left a note and said Im sorry i

I had a bad day again

Nooo...

And she swears theres nothing wrong

I hear her playing that same old song

She puts me up and puts me on

Oh I had a bad day again

She said I would not understand

She left a note that said Im sorry, i

I had a bad day again

She left a note that said Im sorry, i

I had a bad day

Nooo

Nooo

Nooo

Nooo

Alright

Oooooo

Ohhh



I remember when I kept my life pretty private.

Incubus - Dig

We all have a weakness

But some of ours are easy to identify. Look me in the eye,

and ask for forgiveness.

We'll make a pact to never speak that word again.

Yes, you are my friend.

We all have something that digs at us,

at least we dig each other.

So when weakness turns my ego up

I know you'll count on the me from yesterday.

If I turn into another

dig me up from under what is covering

the better part of me.

Sing this song

remind me that we'll always have each other

when everything else is gone.

We all have a sickness

that cleverly attaches and multiplies

No matter how we try.

We all have someone that digs at us,

at least we dig each other.

So when sickness turns my ego up

I know you'll act as a clever medicine.

If I turn into another,

dig me up from under what is covering

The better part of me.

Sing this song!

Remind me that we'll always have each other

when everything else is gone.

Oh, each other when everything else is gone.

[KB.]

I like that song, I added it to my Myspace playlist. I took Hello Walls out for it even.

[Musiclover89]

Another day has gone

I'm still all alone

How could this be

You're not here with me

You never said goodbye

Someone tell me why

Did you have to go

And leave my world so cold

Everyday I sit and ask myself

How did love slip away

Something whispers in my ear and says

That you are not alone

For I am here with you

Though you're far away

I am here to stay

But you are not alone

For I am here with you

Though we're far apart

You're always in my heart

But you are not alone

'Lone, 'lone

Why, 'lone

Just the other night

I thought I heard you cry

Asking me to come

And hold you in my arms

I can hear your prayers

Your burdens I will bear

But first I need your hand

Then forever can begin

Everyday I sit and ask myself

How did love slip away

Something whispers in my ear and says

That you are not alone

For I am here with you

Though you're far away

I am here to stay

For you are not alone

For I am here with you

Though we're far apart

You're always in my heart

For you are not alone

Whisper three words and I'll come runnin'

And girl you know that I'll be there

I'll be there

You are not alone

For I am here with you

Though you're far away

I am here to stay

For you are not alone

For I am here with you

Though we're far apart

You're always in my heart

For you are not alone

For I am here with you

Though you're far away

I am here to stay

For you are not alone

For I am here with you

Though we're far apart

You're always in my heart

For you are not alone...

[Musiclover89]

There's no time for us

There's no place for us

What is this thing that builds our dreams yet slips away

from us

Who wants to live forever

Who wants to live forever....?

There's no chance for us

It's all decided for us

This world has only one sweet moment set aside for us

Who wants to live forever

Who wants to live forever?

Who dares to love forever?

When love must die

But touch my tears with your lips

Touch my world with your fingertips

And we can have forever

And we can love forever

Forever is our today

Who wants to live forever

Who wants to live forever?

Forever is our today

Who waits forever anyway?

[NotToday]

And I don’t know

This could break my heart or save me

Nothing’s real

Until you let go completely

So here I go with all my thoughts I’ve been saving

So here I go with all my fears weighing on me

Three months and I’m still sober

Picked all my weeds but kept the flowers

And I don’t know

I could crash and burn but maybe

At the end of this road I might catch a glimpse of me

Three months and I’m still breathing

Been a long road since those hands I left my tears in but I know

It’s never really over, no



Wake up

Three months and I’m still standing here

Three months and I’m getting better yeah

Three months and I still am

Three months and it's still harder now

Three months I've been living here without you

Three months yeah, three months

Three months and I’m still breathing

Three months and I still remember it

Three months and I wake up

Three months and I’m still sober

Picked all my weeds but kept the flowers

Fuel - Wasted Time

Say it to my face

Look me in the eyes

And say what you have to say

You know we can't erase these words before goodbye

And turn the final page

Ahh here comes alone again

Everything's broken

Everything's vacant

Everything's wasted time again

Sentiments hopeless

Innocence jaded

Everything's wasted time again

And so we leave this stage

And all our best read lines

And all the acts we played

So say you wanna leave

And say we never held the way we always hoped we'd try

And say hello to alone again

'Cause, everything's broken

Everything's vacant

Everything's wasted time again

Sentiments hopeless

Innocence jaded

Everything's wasted time again

Ahh someday we might find

Some sacred place in time

But until then all we'll share

Are dreams we've left behind

'Cause everything's broken

Everything's vacant

Everything's wasted time again

Ahh, yeah!

Everything's broken

Everything's vacant

Everything's wasted time again

Sentiments hopeless

Innocence jaded

Everything's wasted time again

Everything's broken

Everything's vacant

Everything's wasted time again

Sentiments hopeless

Innocence jaded

Everything's wasted time again

Everything is broken

Everything is wasted time

Everything is broken

Everything is wasted time

Smithereens.........Annie Lennox



I saw your picture

It made me sorry

For all the things

I never said

It seems that you

Have cause to worry

It seems that you

Don't wish me well



Behind the victim

Behind the trouble

Are all the things

You never expressed

I see you standing behind your mother

I see you hiding behind her dress



So don't make me sad

I couldn't stand to watch you fall

'Cause everybody has a tender heart

Remember this

I ddin't mean to break it down to smithereens



I heard you crying

I learned the story

I saw the shadows behind the past

They fall behind you

And creep up slowly

We're only human

Behind the mask



So don't take me down

I couldn't stand to watch you fall

'Cause everybody has a tender heart

Remember this

I couldn't bear to break it down to smithereens



And you say

Everybody is an island of their own

And you say

Everybody has a tender heart

Remember this

I couldn't bear to break it down to smithereens



I didn't mean to break it down

I didn't mean to smithereen

Everybody is an island to themselves

Don't you know

Everybody is an island to themselves

The Smiths -- There Is a Light (That Never Goes Out)

Written By: Morrissey



Take me out tonight

Where there's music and there's people

And they're young and alive

Driving in your car

I never never want to go home

Because I haven't got one

Anymore

Take me out tonight

Because I want to see people and I

Want to see life

Driving in your car

Oh, please don't drop me home

Because it's not my home, it's their

Home, and I'm welcome no more



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



Take me out tonight

Take me anywhere, I don't care

I don't care, I don't care

And in the darkened 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

Oh, take me anywhere, I don't care

I don't care, I don't care

Driving in your car

I never never want to go home

Because I haven't got one, da ...

Oh, I haven't got one



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



Oh, There Is A Light And It Never Goes Out

There Is A Light And It Never Goes Out

There Is A Light And It Never Goes Out

There Is A Light And It Never Goes Out

There Is A Light And It Never Goes Out

There Is A Light And It Never Goes Out

There Is A Light And It Never Goes Out

There Is A Light And It Never Goes Out

There Is A Light And It Never Goes Out
