When this old world starts a getting me down,
and people are just too much for me to face. I'll climb way up to the top of the stairs and all my cares just drift right into space. On the roof, it's peaceful as can be and there the world below don't bother me, no, no. So when I come home feeling tired and beat, I'll go up where the air is fresh and sweet. I'll get far away from the hustling crowd and all the rat-race noise down in the street. On the roof, that's the only place I know, look at the city, baby. Where you just have to wish to make it so, let's go up on the roof. And at night the stars, they put on a show for free. And, darling, you can share it all with me, that's what I said, keep on telling you That right smack dab in the middle of town , I found a paradise that's trouble-proof. And if this old world starts a getting you down, there's room enough for two up on the roof, up on the roof, up on the roof. Everything is all right, every thing is all right. You got the stars above and the city lights below, let's go up on the roof. There's room for you too. C'mon up. |
I Could Not Ask For More, Sara Evans
Lying here with you Listening to the rain Smiling just to see the smile upon your face These are the moments I thank God that I'm alive And these are the moments I'll remember all my life I've found all I've waited for And I could not ask for more Looking in your eyes Seeing all I need Everything you are is everything to me These are the moments I know heaven must exist And these are the moments I know all I need is this I've found all I've waited for,yeah And I could not ask for more I could not ask for more than this time together I could not ask for more than this time with you And every prayer has been answered Every dream I've had's come true Yeah, right here in this moment Is right where I'm meant to be Here with you here with me Yeah These are the moments I thank God that I'm alive And these are the moments I'll remember all my life I've found all I've waited for And I could not ask for more |
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 And the thought crosses my mind If I never wake up in the morning Would she ever doubt the way I feel About her in my heart If tomorrow never comes Will she know how much I loved her Did I try in every way to show her every day That she's my only one And if my time on earth were through And she must face the world without me Is the love I gave her in the past Gonna be enough to last If tomorrow never comes 'Cause I've lost loved ones in my life Who never knew how much I loved them Now I live with the regret That my true feelings for them never were revealed So I made a promise to myself To say each day how much she means to me And avoid that circumstance Where there's no second chance to tell her how I feel If tomorrow never comes Will she know how much I loved her Did I try in every way to show her every day That she's my only one And if my time on earth were through And she must face the world without me Is the love I gave her in the past Gonna be enough to last If tomorrow never comes So tell that someone that you love Just what you're thinking of If tomorrow never comes |

My all time favorite movie is "Phenomenon" and I actually thought about the movie today..... I just heard this song play on the radio and made me smile..... :lurv:
Eric Clapton "If I Could" If I could reach the stars Pull one down for you Shine it on my heart So you could see the truth That this love I have inside Is everything it seems But for now I find It's only in my dreams chorus: That I can Change the world I would be the sunlight in your universe You would think my love was really something good Baby, if i could change the world If I could be king, even for a day I'd take you as my queen I'd have it no other way And our love would rule this kingdom we have made Til' then i'll be a fool Wishing for the day chorus Baby if I could...change the world I could change the world, I would be the sunlight in your universe You would think my love was really something good Baby, if I could change the world |
Long Ago and Far Away [swoon]
done by many but I'm listening to: Helen Forrest & Dick Haymes [Her] Long ago and far away I dreamed a dream one day And now that dream is here beside me Long the skies were overcast But now the clouds have passed You're here at last Chills run up and down my spine Aladdin's lamp is mine The dream I dreamed was not denied me Just one look and then I knew That all I longed for long ago was you [Him] Long ago and far away I dreamed a dream one day And now that dream is here beside me Long the skies were overcast But now the clouds have passed You're here at last Chills run up and down my spine Aladdin's lamp is mine The dream I dreamed was not denied me Just one look and then I knew That all I longed for long ago was you [Her] Just one look and then I knew [Him, with her humming along] That all I longed for long ago [Both)] Was you |
SHE'S ONLY HAPPY IN THE SUN
Ben Harper / Dean Butterworth I know you may not want to see me On your way down from the clouds Would you hear me if I told you That my heart is with you now She's only happy in the sun She's only happy in the sun Did you find what you were after The pain and the laughter brought you to your knees But if the sun sets you free Sets you free You'll be free indeed Indeed She's only happy in the sun She's only happy in the sun Every time I hear you laughing Hear you laughing It makes me cry Like the story of life Of life Is hello goodbye She's only happy in the sun She's only happy in the sun She's only happy in the sun She's only happy in the sun © Diamonds On The Inside - 2002 - EMI Virgin Music, Inc / Innocent Criminal, Inc (ASCAP). |

Another on of mine is Destination Anywhere By the Commitments
Said to the man at the railroad station, "I want a ticket, just for one." He said, "Well, if you insist. But where you wanna go, a miss?" Oh, Destination anywhere East or west, I don't care You see my baby don't love me no more This old world, ain't got no back door He looked at me with a funny face and said, "Are you sure you wanna go just anyplace?" I said, "If you ever loved someone, the way I loved that man, Surely Mr. ticket agent, you should understand." Destination anywhere East or west, I don't care You see my baby don't want me no more This old world ain't got no back door 'Cause if it did, it would swing both ways And we'd go on back to happy yesterdays When he l loved me tenderly And all he needed was me. As I looked through the window of the train I thought I heard my baby call my name But it was just the conductor saying, "Which stop would you prefer?" Oh, destination anywhere East or west, I don't care You see my baby don't love me no more This old world, ain't got no back door Destination anywhere East or west, I don't care Destination anywhere East or west, I don't care Destination anywhere East or west, I don't care Destination anywhere East or west, I don't care |

Red Right Hand ~ Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds
Take a litle walk to the edge of town Go across the tracks Where the viaduct looms, like a bird of doom As it shifts and cracks Where secrets lie in the border fires, in the humming wires Hey man, you know you're never coming back Past the square, past the bridge, past the mills, past the stacks On a gathering storm comes a tall handsome man In a dusty black coat with a red right hand He'll wrap you in his arms, tell you that you've been a good boy He'll rekindle all the dreams it took you a lifetime to destroy He'll reach deep into the hole, heal your shrinking soul Hey buddy, you know you're never ever coming back He's a god, he's a man, he's a ghost, he's a guru They're whispering his name through this disappearing land But hidden in his coat is a red right hand You ain't got no money? He'll get you some You ain't got no car? He'll get you one You ain't got no self-respect, you feel like an insect Well don't you worry buddy, cause here he comes Through the ghettos and the barrio and the bowery and the slum A shadow is cast wherever he stands Stacks of green paper in his red right hand (Organ solo) You'll see him in your nightmares, you'll see him in your dreams He'll appear out of nowhere but he ain't what he seems You'll see him in your head, on the TV screen And hey buddy, I'm warning you to turn it off He's a ghost, he's a god, he's a man, he's a guru You're one microscopic cog in his catastrophic plan Designed and directed by his red right hand (Organ solo) He's a... He's mumbling words you can't understand He's mumbling word behind his red right hand. |
YOUR SONG (Elton John)
It's a little bit funny this feeling inside I'm not one of those who can easily hide I don't have much money but boy if I did I'd buy a big house where we both could live If I was a sculptor, but then again, no Or a man who makes potions in a travelling show I know it's not much but it's the best I can do My gift is my song and this one's for you And you can tell everybody this is your song It may be quite simple but now that it's done I hope you don't mind, I hope you don't mind that I put down in words How wonderful life is while you're in the world I sat on the roof and kicked off the moss Well a few of the verses well they've got me quite cross But the sun's been quite kind while I wrote this song It's for people like you that keep it turned on So excuse me forgetting but these things I do You see I've forgotten if they're green or they're blue Anyway the thing is what I really mean Yours are the sweetest eyes I've ever seen |

You can look at the menu but you just can't eat
You can feel the cushions but you can't have a seat You can dip your foot in the pool but you can't have a swim You can feel the punishment but you can't commit the sin And you want her and she wants you We want everyone And you want her and she wants you No one, no one, no one ever is to blame You can build a mansion but you just can't live in You're the fastest runner but you're not allowed to win Some break the rules And live to count the cost The insecurity is the thing that won't get lost And you want her and she wants you We want everyone And you want her and she wants you No one, no one, no one ever is to blame You can see the summit but you can't reach it It's the last piece of the puzzle but you just can't make it fit Doctor says you're cured but you still feel the pain Aspirations in the clouds but your hopes go down the drain And you want her and she wants you We want everyone And you want her and she wants you No one, no one, no one ever is to blame No one ever is to blame No one ever is to blame |
sex farm - spinal tap
Let's rock and roll Working on a sex farm Trying to raise some hard love Getting out my pitch fork And poking your hay Scratching in your henhouse Sniffing at your feedbag Slipping out your back door I'm leaving my spray Sex farm woman I'm gonna mow you down Sex farm woman I'll rake and mow you down Sex farm woman Don't you see my silo risin' high Working on a sex farm Hosing down your barn door Bothering you livestock They know what I need Working up a hot sweat I'm scretching in your pea patch Plowing through your beanfield Planting my seed Sex farm woman I'll be your hired hand Sex farm woman I'll let my offer stand Sex farm woman Don't you feel my tractor rumbling by by-by-byyyy Working on a sex farm Wolfing down some cornbread I'm turning on the tv Joining the grange. |
