Lyrical Moments...

[Aleks]

You got me jumpin' right out of my skin
You keep it up and I'll be comin' on in
You start a feelin' you're the cream of the crop
You gonna break my heart or just make it stop
You told me that you'd always love me true
But then I heard you told another guy too
Take a cold shower but the water boils hot
The way you twist and shake it girl
You tie me in a knot
And get me hot

Ooo hot and bothered
So hot and bothered
You get me
Hot and bothered
Come on now

Now listen
I pick you up at eight by ten we do the town
Empty my pockets just a tryin' to get you down
Throw in the towel I think your games are such a bore
Just when I think I've lost you pull me to the floor
And get me hot

[jacksondonut]

How can you see into my eyes like open doors
Leading you down into my core
Where I've become so numb
Without a soul
My spirit's sleeping somewhere cold
Until you find it there and lead it back home

(Wake me up) Wake me up inside
(I can't wake up) Wake me up inside
(Save me) Call my name and save me from the dark
(Wake me up) Bid my blood to run
(I can't wake up) Before I come undone
(Save me) Save me from the nothing I've become

Now that I know what I'm without
You can't just leave me
Breathe into me and make me real
Bring me to life

(Wake me up) Wake me up inside
(I can't wake up) Wake me up inside
(Save me) Call my name and save me from the dark
(Wake me up) Bid my blood to run
(I can't wake up) Before I come undone
(Save me) Save me from the nothing I've become

Bring me to life
I've been living a lie
There's nothing inside
Bring me to life

Frozen inside without your touch
Without your love, darling
Only you are the life among the dead

All of this time, I can't believe I couldn't see
Kept in the dark, but you were there in front of me
I've been sleeping a thousand years it seems
Got to open my eyes to everything
Without a thought, without a voice, without a soul
Don't let me die here
There must be something more
Bring me to life

(Wake me up) Wake me up inside
(I can't wake up) Wake me up inside
(Save me) Call my name and save me from the dark
(Wake me up) Bid my blood to run
(I can't wake up) Before I come undone
(Save me) Save me from the nothing I've become

Bring me to life
I've been living a lie
There's nothing inside
Bring me to life

Bring Me To Life

Feeling the urge to shake my stuff..

listening to this just now

Brian Poole and the Tremeloes - "Do you Love me?"

"You broke my heart
Coz I couldn't dance
You didn't even want me around
But now I'm back
To let you know that I can really skake 'em down

Do you love me (I can really move)
Now do you love me (I'm in the groove)
Ah do you love me (do you really love me)
Now that I can dance

Watch me now, oh
(work it all) oh shake it up, shake it up
(work it all) ah, shake it, shake it doll
(work it all) oh with a little bit of soul now

I can mash potato (mash potato)
I can do the twist (do the twist)
Well now tell me baby (tell me baby)
Do you like it like this (like it like this)
Tell me, oh tell me

Ah, do you love me (do you love me)
Well do you love me (do you love me)
Well do you love me (do you love me)
Now that I can dance

Watch me now, oh
(work it all) oh shake it up, shake it up
(work it all) yeah, shake it, shake it doll
(work it all) oh with a little bit of soul now

(work it all) Well get the thythm baby
(work it all) Oh you're driving me crazy
(work it all) with just a little bit of soul now

I can mash potato (mash potato)
I can do the twist (do the twist)
Well now tell me baby (tell me baby)
Ah, do you like it like this (like it like this)
Tell me, tell me

Ah do you love me (do you love me)
Well do you love me (do you love me)
Well do you love me (do you love me)
Now that I can dance"

Rusted brandy in a diamond glass
Everything is made from dreams
Time is made from honey slow and sweet
Only the fools know what it means
Temptation, temptation, temptation
Oh, temptation, temptation, I can't resist
Well I know that she is made of smoke
But I've lost my way
He knows that I am broke
But I must play
Temptation, oh temptation, temptation, I can't resist
Dutch pink and Italian blue
He is there waiting for you
My will has disappeared
Now confusion is so clear
Temptation, temptation, temptation
I can't resist
Temptation, temptation, temptation
I can't resist

Temptation~Diana Krall

[Tazmanian Devil]

I want a little something more
Don't want the middle or the one before
I don't desire a complicated past
I want a love that will last

Say that you love me, say I'm the one
Don't kiss and hug me, and then try to run
I don't do drama, my tears don't fall fast
I want a love that will last

I don't want just a memory, give me forever
Don't even think about saying goodbye
Cuz I just want one love to be enough
And remain in my heart till i die
So..

Call me romantic, oh I guess that is so
There's something more that you oughta know
I'll never leave you, so don't even ask
I want a love that will last forever
I want a love that will last

I don't want just a memory, give me forever
Don't even think about saying goodbye
Cuz I just want one love to be enough
And remain in my heart till i die
So..

There's just a little, more that I need (more that I need)
I wanna share all, the air that you'll breathe
I'm not the kind of girl to complicate the past
I want a love that will last forever
I want a love that will last always
I just want a love that will last

I want a love that will last

[Blueshoes]

If I could save time in a bottle
The first thing that I'd want to do
Is to save every day
Till eternity passes away
Just to spend them with you

[Tazmanian Devil]

A woman in love

Life is a moment in space
When the dream is gone
It's a lonelier place
I kiss the morning good-bye
But down inside you know
We never know why

The road is narrow and long
When eyes meet eyes
And the feeling is strong
I turn away from the wall
I stumble and fall
But I give you it all

I am a woman in love
And I'd do anything
To get you into my world
And hold you within
It's a right I defend
Over and over again
What do I do?

With you eternally mine
In love there is
No measure of time
We planned it all at the start
That you and I
Live in each other's heart

We may be oceans away
You feel my love
I hear what you say
No truth is ever a lie
I stumble and fall
But I give you it all

I am a woman in love
And I'd do anything
To get you into my world
And hold you within
It's a right I defend
Over and over again
What do I do?

I am a woman in love
And I'm talkin' to you
I know how you feel
What a woman can do
It's a right I defend
Over and over again

I am a woman in love
And I'd do anything
To get you into my world
And hold you within
It's a right I defend

[jacksondonut]

Girl im in love with you
This ain't the honeymoon
Past the infatuation phase
Right in the thick of love
At times we get sick of love
It seems like we argue everyday

[Bridge]
I know i misbehaved
And you made your mistakes
And we both still got room left to grow
And though love sometimes hurts
I still put you first
And we'll make this thing work
But I think we should take it slow

[Chorus]
We're just ordinary people
We don't know which way to go
Cuz we're ordinary people
Maybe we should take it slow
This time we'll take it slow
This time we'll take it slow

[Verse 2]
This ain't a movie no
No fairy tale conclusion ya'll
It gets more confusing everyday
Sometimes it's heaven sent
Then we head back to hell again
We kiss then we make up on the way

[Bridge]
I hang up you call
We rise and we fall
And we feel like just walking away
As our love advances
We take second chances
Though it's not a fantasy
I Still want you to stay

[Chorus]

Take it slow
Maybe we'll live and learn
Maybe we'll crash and burn
Maybe you'll stay, maybe you'll leave,
maybe you'll return
Maybe another fight
Maybe we won't survive
But maybe we'll grow
We never know baby you and I

[Chorus]

John Legend

[Gav]

Here's a message to you son
I love you one by one
Father, they may not be everything you want them to be
If you learn and live life true
And do hte things that you need to do
Then the best things in life will surely come to you

So here's a message to my sons
I love you one by one
I claim to you my love, my life is true
To you I'd give my life, I'd give my soul
If you just promise to grow old
Giving and living a life full of love

Now promise to hold them and console them
Never scold them or control them
Find a way to make things work out just right
Try kissing, try embracing, standing up face to facing
Trials of life and all hte pains and strife
It's easy to recall somewhere if you happen to fall
Don't put yourself down pick yourself up
and turn it around, turn it around

For all the fathers that have gone away
All the fathers that have gone astray
I may not be the father you want me to be
But I've loved you since your childhood
This is a message to you

The greatest gift god gave a man
Was a woman in the master plan
So take her by the hand and treat her right
Learn to love her, love your children
Hold the dearest to your soul
And remember life and love and peace to be your goal

So here's a message to my sons
I love you one by one
I calim to you my love is true, I'd give you
anything you want me to
I'd give my life, I'd give my soul
I'd give my heart to you if you just grow old
Loving and caring and giving and sharing all your love

Here's a message to my sons
Daddy loves you one by one
Name by name wherever you may roam
Whatever you do in life remember this is this
I'll always cherish and love you
And you can always, always, always come back home.

Solomon Burke, Eric Clapton & Jools Holland.

and after the emotional roller coaster ride of the last couple of days, listening to that while thinking about my kids has got Gav crying like a little girl.

[azande]

So sweet caress, never long to last!
You entered my soul and gave hope to my life

So sweet caress, never long to last!
You left me behind all alone and aghast
Captured inside such an Elysium

Imperfect feelings, futile grief
Love a devise against all solitude
As it all went on, the love became
A field in a dream that once had been real

So sweet so caress, never long to last!
Destroy this illusion we need a change of fate!
Your frantic thoughts are only a condemned cry

Primo somniare videbamur
Deinde veritas se praecipitavit

I secretly longed for something
Which had never existed

First I thought it was a dream
But then it smashed into reality
Beautiful on the outside, decayed deeply within

I secretly longed for something
Which had never existed

Devoted to a body without a soul

Numquam non tibi diffidam

Epica - Illusive Consensus

[jacksondonut]

Beautiful dawn - lights up the shore for me.
There is nothing else in the world,
I'd rather wake up and see (with you).
Beautiful dawn - I'm just chasing time again.
Thought I would die a lonely man, in endless night.
But now I'm high; running wild among all the stars above.
Sometimes it's hard to believe you remember me.

Beautiful dawn - melt with the stars again.
Do you remember the day when my journey began?
Will you remember the end (of time)?
Beautiful dawn - You're just blowing my mind again.
Thought I was born to endless night, until you shine.
High; running wild among all the stars above.
Sometimes it's hard to believe you remember me.

Will you be my shoulder when I'm grey and older?
Promise me tomorrow starts with you,
Getting high; running wild among all the stars above.
Sometimes it's hard to believe you remember me

[jacksondonut]

How I wish I could surrender my soul;
Shed the clothes that become my skin;
See the liar that burns within my needing.
how I wish I'd chosen darkness from cold.
how I wish I had screamed out loud,
Instead I've found no meaning.

I guess it's time I run far, far away; find comfort in pain,
All pleasure's the same: it just keeps me from trouble.
Hides my true shape, like Dorian Gray.
I've heard what they say, but I'm not here for trouble.
It's more than just words: it's just tears and rain.

How I wish I could walk through the doors of my mind;
Hold memory close at hand,
Help me understand the years.
How I wish I could choose between Heaven and Hell.
How I wish I would save my soul.
I'm so cold from fear.

I guess it's time I run far, far away; find comfort in pain,
All pleasure's the same: it just keeps me from trouble.
Hides my true shape, like Dorian Gray.
I've heard what they say, but I'm not here for trouble.
Far, far away; find comfort in pain.
All pleasure's the same: it just keeps me from trouble.
It's more than just words: it's just tears and rain.

[jacksondonut]

Beautiful dawn,
Lights up the shore for me.
There is nothing else in the world,
I'd rather wake up and see with you.

Beautiful dawn,
I'm just chasing time again.
Thought I would die a lonely man, in the endless night.

But now I'm high!
Running wild among all the stars above.
Sometimes it's hard to believe you remember me.

Beautiful dawn, (Beautiful dawn)
Melts with the stars again.
Do you remember the day when my journey began?
Will you remember the end of time?

Beautiful dawn,(Beautiful dawn)
You're just blowing my mind again.
Thought I was born to endless nights, until you shine.

High!
Running wild among all the stars above.
Sometimes it's hard to believe you remember me.

Will you be my shoulder when I'm grey and older?
Promise me tomorrow starts with you,

Getting high!
Running wild among all the stars above.
Sometimes it's hard to believe you remember me

High!
Running wild among all the stars above.
Sometimes it's hard to believe you remember me

Fantastic song!!! And great for expressive dance (not ceroc). I can't resist dancing to this - it's so emotional and dramatic.

[Nessiemonster]

Whilst channel-hopping radio stations I heard this:

Ah Oooooh. Beowulf in London...


(Isn't that Next weekend???! )

[azande]

The Dance of the Puppets
The rusted chains of prison moons
Are shattered by the sun.
I walk a road, horizons change
The tournament's begun.
The purple piper plays his tune,
The choir softly sing;
Three lullabies in an ancient tongue,
For the court of the crimson king.

The keeper of the city keys
Put shutters on the dreams.
I wait outside the pilgrim's door
With insufficient schemes.
The black queen chants
the funeral march,
The cracked brass bells will ring;
To summon back the fire witch
To the court of the crimson king.

The gardener plants an evergreen
Whilst trampling on a flower.
I chase the wind of a prism ship
To taste the sweet and sour.
The pattern juggler lifts his hand;
The orchestra begin.
As slowly turns the grinding wheel
In the court of the crimson king.

On soft gray mornings widows cry
The wise men share a joke;
I run to grasp divining signs
To satisfy the hoax.
The yellow jester does not play
But gentle pulls the strings
And smiles as the puppets dance
In the court of the crimson king.

King Crimson - The Court of the Crimson King

Have been woken to this on the radio alarm twice in the last 3 days!


The first, the last, my everything
And the answer to all my dreams
You're my sun, my moon, my guiding star
My kind of wonderful, that's what you are
I know there's only, only one like you
There's no way they could have made two
You're all I'm living for
Your love I'll keep for evermore
You're the first, your the last, my everything

And with you I've found so many things
A love so new only you could bring
Can't you see it's you
You make me feel this way
You're like a fresh morning dew on a brand new day
I see so many ways that I
Can love you till the day I die
You're my reality, yet I'm lost in a-a-a a dream
You're the first, the last, my everything

I know there's only, only one like you
There's no way they could have made two
Girl you're my reality
But I'm lost in a-a-a a dream
You're the first, you're the last, my everything

[Sparkles]

Come the mornin' don't ya wake me
I'll be dreamin' that I'm free
Come the daybreak don't ya shake me
Send me back to misery

Cause I'm dealin' with the devil
With no help from above
I'm stealin' with the devil
Through this house of broken love

Takin' chances with you baby
I saw something in your eyes
And though no one else could blame me
There were signs I shoulda recognized

Now I'm dealin' with the devil
With no help from above
I'm sleepin' with the devil
In this house of broken love....broken love

If you don't wanna lose my lovin'
Use it constantly
If it's gonna be lies, suspicious eyes
Baby oh baby set me free

When the night falls and she's leavin'
Ooo the moon shines cold and grey
Hear my heartbeat yeah yeah hear m' weepin'
Pain and sorrow's here to stay

I begged you baby help me
But you turned your back on me
You didn't even listen
You should have set me free

Now I'm leavin' with the devil
Gonna leave this search for love
I'm Leavin' with the devil
Leave this house of broken love
