************* M*W: My favorite lyrics are: "You can check out anytime you like, but you can never leave." ~ The Eagles (Hotel California) "Tramps like us, baby we were born to run." ~ Bruce Springsteen (Born to Run) "Desperado, why don't you come to your senses? You've been out ridin' fences for so long. You better let somebody love you. You better let somebody love you, before it's too late." ~ The Eagles (Desperado) "It had to be you. It had to be you. I wandered around, and finally found somebody who...". ~ Tony Bennett (It Had to Be You) "I hear her voice in the mornin' hours she calls me, the radio reminds me of my home far away, and ridin' down the road I get a feelin' that I should've been home yesterday. Yesterday. Country Roads, take me home, to the place I belong. West Virginia, mountain mama, take me home." ~ John Denver (Almost Heaven-West Virginia) "I'm a rocket ship on my way to Mars, on a collision course, I am a satellite, I'm outta control, I'm a sex machine ready to reload, like an atom bomb about to oh oh oh oh oh explode. Burning through the skies, six-hundred degrees, that's why they call me Mr. Farenheit, I'm travelling at the speed of light, I'm gonna make a rocket man outta you. Don't stop me now, I'm having such a good time, I'm having a ball. Don't stop me now, if you wanna have a good time, just give me a call. Don't stop me now. Don't stop me now. I don't want to stop at all." Queen (Don't Stop Me Now) "Life goes on long after the thrill of living is gone. Rock on." ~ John C. Mellencamp (A Little Ditty 'Bout Jack and Diane)

A sample of some of my faves: Ray Georgia, Georgia The whole day through Just an old sweet song keeps Georgia On my mind... Bill Ain't no sunshine when she's gone It's not warm when she's away Ain't no sunshine when she's gone And this house just ain't no home Anytime she goes away Ain't no sunshine when she's gone Only darkness ev'ry day Ain't no sunshine when she's gone And she's always gone too long Anytime she goes away... Elton It's sad, so sad It's a sad sad situation And it's getting more and more absurd It's sad, so sad Why can't we talk it over Oh, it seems to me That sorry seems to be the hardest word... Gerry ... But you know he'll always keep movin' You know he's never gonna stop movin' His heels rollin' He's a rollin' stone And when you wake up it's a new mornin' The sun is shinin', it's a new mornin' You're goin' You're goin' home The Floyd Looking beyond the embers of bridges glowing behind us To a glimpse of how green it was on the other side Steps taken forwards But sleepwalking back again Dragged by the force of some inner tide At a higher altitude with flag unfurled We reached the dizzy heights of that dreamed of world Encumbered forever by desire and ambition There's a hunger still unsatisfied Our weary eyes still stray to the horizon Though down this road we've been so many times The grass was greener The light was brighter The taste was sweeter The nights of wonder With friends surrounded The dawn mist glowing The water flowing The endless river Forever and ever But I tend to think about the music structure mostly, the lyrical structure can be spoken like a poem, you see.
Your Saving Grace by Steve Miller Winters people watching As I sail from seasons four To join some crazy ladies In a game upon the shore None of them with broken wings But still refuse to fly So with sweetness on my lips I smile a last goodbye And now I spend my life On the velvet side of hell Aimlessly here searching For what I cannot tell The quietness is terrible Its more than I can stand But thousands now stand cheering As my blood flows in the sand Spoken: youre not the child You thought you were You wake up in the night And know youre blind And yet they keep on pushing Trying the insides of your mind Forever, forever arresting to control Until the emptiness of heaven welcomes your weary soul Rise up with the new dawns early morning Feel the sunshine warm upon your face Tomorrows come a long, long way to help you Yes, its your saving grace Every day, every way Tomorrow, its your saving grace Well, now got no time to worry Cause Ive got no time to hurry Baby, its your saving grace Now dont you lay those blames on me Dont you play those games on me Cause baby its your saving grace You got to need a little lovin Now baby its your saving grace Hey, I feel alright Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah Your saving grace Ah, hey, hey, hey Your saving grace La la la la la la la la.... Oh baby, its your saving grace
Its hard for me to say the things I want to say sometimes Theres no one here but you and me And that broken old street light Lock the doors Well leave the world outside All Ive got to give to you Are these five words when i Chorus: Thank you for loving me For being my eyes When I couldnt see For parting my lips When I couldnt breathe Thank you for loving me Thank you for loving me I never knew I had a dream Until that dream was you When I look into your eyes The skys a different blue Cross my heart I wear no disguise If I tried, youd make believe That you believed my lies Chorus: Thank you for loving me For being my eyes When I couldnt see For parting my lips When I couldnt breathe Thank you for loving me You pick me up when I fall down You ring the bell before they count me out If I was drowning you would part the sea And risk your own life to rescue me Solo Lock the doors Well leave the world outside All Ive got to give to you Are these five words when i Chorus: Thank you for loving me For being my eyes When I couldnt see You parted my lips When I couldnt breathe Thank you for loving me When I couldnt fly Oh, you gave me wings You parted my lips When I couldnt breathe Thank you for loving me
It's really strange reading through so many lyrics on their own. It makes you realise how some songs are poetry to a music, while others are just sound and words. ----------------------------- ---------------
good charlotte couldnt write a decent song if it jumped up and bit them on the noses, an elephant shitting through a straw sounds better than them
This song always makes me laugh: Sunspot Baby Bob Seger She packed up her bags and she took off down the road Left me here stranded with the bills she owed She gave me a false address Took off with my American Express Sunspot Baby She sure had me way outguessed She left me here stranded like a dog out in the yard Charged up a fortune on my credit card She used my address and my name Man that was sure unkind Sunspot Baby She sure has a real good time I looked in Miami I looked in Negril The closest I came was a month old bill I checked the Bahamas and they said she was gone I can't understand why she did me so wrong But she packed up her bags And she took off down the road Said she was going to visit her sister Flo She used my address and my name And man that was sure unkind Sunspot Baby I'm gonna catch up sometime Sure had a real good time Talk about some pain!
Suzanne by Leonard Cohen Suzanne takes you down to her place near the river You can hear the boats go by You can spend the night beside her And you know that she's half crazy But that's why you want to be there And she feeds you tea and oranges That come all the way from China And just when you mean to tell her That you have no love to give her Then she gets you on her wavelength And she lets the river answer That you've always been her lover And you want to travel with her And you want to travel blind And you know that she will trust you For you've touched her perfect body with your mind. And Jesus was a sailor When he walked upon the water And he spent a long time watching From his lonely wooden tower And when he knew for certain Only drowning men could see him He said "All men will be sailors then Until the sea shall free them" But he himself was broken Long before the sky would open Forsaken, almost human He sank beneath your wisdom like a stone And you want to travel with him And you want to travel blind And you think maybe you'll trust him For he's touched your perfect body with his mind. Now Suzanne takes your hand And she leads you to the river She is wearing rags and feathers From Salvation Army counters And the sun pours down like honey On our lady of the harbour And she shows you where to look Among the garbage and the flowers There are heroes in the seaweed There are children in the morning They are leaning out for love And they will lean that way forever While Suzanne holds the mirror And you want to travel with her And you want to travel blind And you know that you can trust her For she's touched your perfect body with her mind.
