Lyrical Moments...

[Ghost]

Oh, the power to be strong
And the wisdom to be wise
All these things will come to you in time
On this journey that you're making
There'll be answers that you'll seek
And it's you who'll climb the mountain
It's you who'll reach the peak

Son of Man, look to the sky
Lift your spirit, set it free
Some day you'll walk tall with pride
Son of Man, a man in time you'll be


Son of Man - Phil Collins

[jacksondonut]

Two Beautiful Jack Savoretti songs..

In the silence of your mind,
You should ask yourself
What it is that makes you who are
In the valley of your soul
You should take a walk,
But you never go that far
It's strange
That I should know you better than you do,
You lovely fool
So strange
That everybody sees your light shine through
Except for you
In the window of your past,
There's a broken pane
Reflecting all the things that make you sad
In the shadow of your fear
There's no hiding place
So why do you run there?
It's strange
That I should know you better than you do,
You lovely fool
So strange
That you should want to live your whole life through
Broken and blue
You're a martyr for the cause
What the cause is I'm not sure
I'm sure it ends with no applause
Except for yours
In the church of all my dreams
I'll say a prayer
That one day you'll believe
It's strange
That I should know you better than you do,
You lovely fool
So strange
That everybody sees your light shine through
Except for you....

I've Been Walking In This Road
Time Passing Me By
Letting Go Of What I Couldn't Hold
Finding Places To Hide
I've Been Watching You Closely
Every Move That You Make
And All The Things You've Showed To Me
Are Getting Harder To Take
I Wish That We Could Begin From The Start
I Pray That I Could Be Brave Enough
To Show You How Easily I Fall Apart
I Can't Let You Know
That I Can't Let It Show
'Cause I'd Rather Be Without Than Be Without You
I Guess I Feel Like A Stranger
When It Comes Down To Love
I'm Too Aware of The Danger
That It Can Bring Upon Us
I Wish That We Could Begin From The Start
I Pray That I Could Be Brave Enough
To Show You How Easily I Fall Apart
I Can't Let You Know
I Wish That We Could Begin From The Start
I Pray That I Could Be Brave Enough
To Find Out If You'd Ever Give Me Your Heart
Cause You Don't Let Me Know
You Don't Let It Show
And I Want You To Know
That I'd Rather Be Without Than Without You

Michael Jackson - The Lady In My Life

There’ll be no darkness tonight
Lady, our love will shine
(Lighting the light)
Just put your trust in my heart
And meet me in paradise
(Now is the time)
Girl, you’re every wonder in this world to me
A treasure time won’t steal away

So listen to my heart
Lay your body close to mine
Let me fill you with my dreams
I can make you feel all right
And, baby, through the years
Gonna love you more each day
So I promise you tonight
That you’ll always be the lady in my life

Lay back in my tenderness
Let’s make this a night we won’t forget
Girl, I need your sweet caress
Reach out to a fantasy
Two hearts in the beat of ecstasy
Come to me, girl

And I will keep you warm
Through the shadows of the night
Let me touch you with my love
I can make you feel so right
And, baby, through the years
Even when we’re old and gray
I will love you more each day
’Cause you will always be the lady in my life

Stay with me
I want you to stay with me
I need you by my side
Don’t you go nowhere
(Ooh, girl, let me keep you warm)

Sweetest love

And I love you, babe
(Always the lady in my life)

Oh, babe
Don’t you go nowhere
You’re my lady
All through the night

(Ooh, girl, let me keep you warm)
I wanna keep you warm
(You are the lady in my life)
In my life, now
(Fill you with the sweetest love)
Let me fill you, babe
(Always the lady in my life)

(Always the lady in my life)
You’re my lady
(Lay back in my tenderness)
You’re my lady, babe
(You are the lady in my life)

LFO (Lyte Funky Ones) - Dandelion

Saw her on a Friday outside someone run down saloon
She was cryin over someone she felt left much too soon
I said, hey girl don't you cry tonight
let me take you out on this town
She looked at me and smiled as one last tear splashed off the ground
with half a wink she asked me would I use some kind of creep
I told her no, I guess I just feel your vibe is kinda deep
the moon hung over soho
and I counted 16 stars
I pointed at the brightest one and said now that one's ours
She's a dandelion, up on her hill above the sea
she's not exactly everything I thought that she might be

She's a dandelion
she looks like everything I need
I thought she was a flower
but I found out she's a weed

Then I hold on hold on hold on
hold on hold on hold on

[Kelis]
I just be poison
but I took he took me to his roof top
He said are you afraid of heights,
I said no I am not
He said hey girl don't you lie to me, tell me everything you feel
we danced around in circles,
He said I think we found something real

She's a dandelion, up on her cliff above the sea
she's not exactly everything I thought that she might be

she's a dandelion
she looks like everything I need
I thought she was a flower
but I found out she's a weed

Then I hold on hold on hold on
hold on hold on hold on
Down in union square
I saw her walking all alone
I walked a little slower just so I'd remain unknown
she met someone on seventeenth that she knew him all too well
my little piece of heaven has a secret she won't tell
with half a smile she took his hand
and then they walked away
I realized I would not see my girl after today

I fell in love with a dandelion
and she's all I ever had
at first she looked so sweet
but in the end she tastes so bad
She's a dandelion, up on her cliff above the sea
she's not exactly everything I thought that she might be

she's a dandelion
she looks like everything I need
I thought she was a flower
but I found out she's a weed

Then I hold on hold on hold on
hold on hold on hold on
And I tell myself
hold on hold on hold on
hold on hold on hold on
yeah hold on
She's a dandelion, up on her cliff above the sea
she's not exactly everything I thought that she might be

She's a dandelion
she looks like everything I need
I thought she was a flower
but I found out she's a weed

Then I hold on hold on hold on
hold on hold on hold on

[CJ]

Seems like it was yesterday when I saw your face
You told me how proud you were but I walked away
If only I knew what I know today

I would hold you in my arms
I would take the pain away
Thank you for all you've done
Forgive all your mistakes
There's nothing I wouldn't do
To hear your voice again
Sometimes I want to call you but I know you won't be there

I'm sorry for blaming you for everything I just couldn't do
And I've hurt myself by hurting you

Some days I feel broke inside but I won't admit
Sometimes I just want to hide 'cause it's you I miss
You know it's so hard to say goodbye when it comes to this

Would you tell me I was wrong?
Would you help me understand?
Are you looking down upon me?
Are you proud of who I am?
There's nothing I wouldn't do
To have just one more chance
To look into your eyes and see you looking back

I'm sorry for blaming you for everything I just couldn't do
And I've hurt myself

If I had just one more day, I would tell you how much that
I've missed you since you've been away
Oh, it's dangerous
It's so out of line to try to turn back time

I'm sorry for blaming you for everything I just couldn't do
And I've hurt myself

By hurting you

"Hurt" by Christina Aguilera

[JennyC]

If I could hold you close
Like you were never gone
If I could hear your voice
You'd tell me to be strong

But sometimes
I just can't
I just don't understand
Why you had to go
Why you had to go
I guess I'll never know

Ain't it funny how you think
You're gonna be OK
Till you remember things ain't never
Gonna be the same again
(same again)
Ain't it crazy how you think
You've got your whole life planned
Just to find that it was never ever
In your hands
(in your hands)
Change

If I could get to you
I'd be there in a minute
My world don't make no sense
Not without you in it

And sometimes
I just cry
Can't say I
Don't know why
But why'd you have to go?
(why'd you have to go?)
And leave me here alone
(and leave me here alone)


Ain't it funny how you think
You're gonna be OK
Till you remember things ain't never
Gonna be the same again
(same again)
Ain't it crazy how you think
You've got your whole life planned
Just to find out it was never ever
In your hands
(in your hands)
Change

You don't see it coming
Change
When the future comes knocking
It changed
It can make you and break you too
You just have to make it through
(You just have to make it through)

Ain't it funny how you think
You're gonna be OK
Till you remember things ain't never
Gonna be the same again
(same again)
Ain't it crazy how you think
You've got your whole life planned
Just to find out it was never ever
In your hands
(in your hands)
Change

Change, change
Change, change

Change

[JennyC]

Whoops not really words I'd love to hear! Should have changed the title back...somehow...???

[Crazy Shark]

Empty spaces fill me up with holes
Distant faces with no place left to go
Without you within me I can't find no rest
Where I'm going is anybody's guess

I tried to go on like I never knew you
I'm awake but my world is half asleep
I pray for this heart to be unbroken
But without you all I'm going to be is incomplete

Voices tell me I should carry on
But I am swimming in an ocean all alone
Baby, my baby
It's written on your face
You still wonder if we made a big mistake

I tried to go on like I never knew you
I'm awake but my world is half asleep
I pray for this heart to be unbroken
But without you all I'm going to be is incomplete

I don't mean to drag it on, but I can't seem to let you go
I don't wanna make you face this world alone
I wanna let you go

I tried to go on like I never knew you
I'm awake but my world is half asleep
I pray for this heart to be unbroken
But without you all I'm going to be is incomplete

Incomplete

[Crazy Shark]

Show me the meaning of being lonely

So many words for the broken heart
Its hard to see in a crimson love
So hard to breathe
Walk with me, and maybe
Nights of light so soon become
Wild and free I could feel the sun
Your every wish will be done
They tell me...

Show me the meaning of being lonely
Is this the feeling I need to walk with
Tell me why I cant be there where you are
Theres something missing in my heart

Life goes on as it never ends
Eyes of stone observe the trends
They never say forever gaze
Guilty roads to an endless love
Theres no control

Are you with me now
Your every wish will be done
They tell me

Show me the meaning of being lonely
Is this the feeling I need to walk with
Tell me why I cant be there where you are
Theres something missing in my heart

Theres nowhere to run
I have no place to go
Surrender my heart, body and soul
How can it be you're asking me to feel the things you never show

You are missing in my heart
Tell me why I cant be there where you are

Show me the meaning of being lonely
Is this the feeling I need to walk with
Tell me why I cant be there where you are
Theres something missing in my heart

[Crazy Shark]

I am thinking of you
In my sleepless solitude tonight
If it's wrong to love you
Then my heart just won't let me be right
'Cause I've drowned in you
And I won't pull through
Without you by my side

I'd give my all
To have just one more night with you
I'd risk my life
To feel your body next to mine
'Cause I can't go on
Living in the memory of our song
I'd give my all
For your love tonight

Baby, can you feel me
Imagining I'm looking in your eyes
I can see you clearly
Vividly emblazoned in my mind
And yet you're so far
Like a distant star

I'm wishing on tonight

I'd give my all
To have just one more night with you
I'd risk my life
To feel your body next to mine
'Cause I can't go on
Living in the memory of our song
I'd give my all
For your love tonight

I'd give my all
To have just one more night with you
I'd risk my life
To feel your body next to mine
'Cause I can't go on
Living in the memory of our song
I'd give my all
For your love tonight
Give my all for your love
Tonight

[Crazy Shark]

Looks like we made it
Look how far we've come my baby
We mighta took the long way
We knew we'd get there someday

They said, "I bet they'll never make it"
But just look at us holding on
We're still together still going strong

(You're still the one)
You're still the one I run to
The one that I belong to
You're still the one I want for life
(You're still the one)
You're still the one that I love
The only one I dream of
You're still the one I kiss good night

Ain't nothin' better
We beat the odds together
I'm glad we didn't listen
Look at what we would be missin'

They said, "I bet they'll never make it"
But just look at us holding on
We're still together still going strong

(You're still the one)
You're still the one I run to
The one that I belong to
You're still the one I want for life
(You're still the one)
You're still the one that I love
The only one I dream of
You're still the one I kiss good night

(You're still the one)
You're still the one I run to
The one that I belong to
You're still the one I want for life
(You're still the one)
You're still the one that I love
The only one I dream of
You're still the one I kiss good night

[Crazy Shark]

Every night in my dreams, I see you, I feel you,
That is how I know you go on.
Far across the distance, and spaces between us,
You have come to show you go on.

Near, far, wherever you are,
I believe that the heart does, go on.
Once more you open the door,
And you're here in my heart and,
my heart will go on and on.

Love can touch us one time, and last for a lifetime,
And never let go till we're gone.
Love was when I loved you, one true time I hold to.

In my life we'll always go on.

Near, far, wherever you are,
I believe that the heart does go on.
Once more you open the door,
And you're here in my heart and,
my heart will go on and on.

You're here, there's nothing I fear,
And I know that my heart will go on.
We'll stay forever this way,
You are safe in my heart and,
my heart will go on and on.

The Academy is ... - Black Mamba

And we need it now
'Cause I'm sick and tired of waiting
Sick of this f*****g apartment

Love me or leave me or rip me apart
This is the voice that i was given and
If you don't like it take a long walk
Off of the shortest pier you can find
And I'll be singing it out I'll be singing...

Oh, Mr. Magazine
I never wrote one single thing for you
Or your so-called music scene
You don't mean a thing to me

Pick it up, pick it up, what you wanted
Pick it up, pick it up, you need it too
Pick it up, pick it up, what you wanted
Pick it up, pick it up

When they review the debut
What if the critics hate you
Don't worry cause they
Might just catch somebody off their feet

Well they can love it or leave it or rip it apart
We're living what we're singing
So I guess that's a step in the right direction
Clever composition and the honesty, honesty

Oh, Mr. Magazine
I never wrote one single thing for you
Or your so-called music scene
You both mean s**t to me

Pick it up, pick it up, what you wanted
Pick it up, pick it up, you need it too
Pick it up, pick it up, what you wanted
Pick it up, pick it up

So save your breath and the money you spent
Go work in retail and spare the suspense
Just don't take chances on anything at all
Anything at all

So afraid of anything that may not come that easy
Too afraid of anything you may not have seen before
So afraid of anything that may not come that easy
Too afraid of anything that may not...

Pick it up, pick it up, what you wanted
Pick it up, pick it up, you need it too
Pick it up, pick it up, what you wanted
Pick it up, pick it up

So save your breath and the money you spent
Go work in retail and spare the suspense
Just don't take chances on anything at all
Anything at all

So save your breath and the money you spent
Go work in retail and spare the suspense
Just don't take chances on anything at all
Anything at all

[Crazy Shark]

Lithium, don't wanna lock me up inside
Lithium, don't wanna forget how it feels without
Lithium, I wanna stay in love with my sorrow
Oh, but God, I wanna let it go

Come to bed, don't make me sleep alone
Couldn't hide the emptiness you let it show
Never wanted it to be so cold
Just didn't drink enough to say you love me

I can't hold on to me
Wonder what's wrong with me

Lithium, don't wanna lock me up inside
Lithium, don't wanna forget how it feels without
Lithium, I wanna stay in love with my sorrow

Oh! Don't wanna let it lay me down this time

Drown my will to fly
Here in the darkness I know myself
Can't break free until I let it go
Let me go

Darling, I forgive you after all
Anything is better than to be alone
And in the end I guess I had to fall
Always find my place among the ashes

I can't hold on to me
Wonder what's wrong with me

Lithium, don't wanna lock me up inside
Lithium, don't wanna forget how it feels without
Lithium, I wanna stay in love with you
Oh, I'm gonna let it go

[Crazy Shark]

I'm so tired of being here
Suppressed by all my childish fears
And if you have to leave
I wish that you would just leave
'Cause your presence still lingers here
And it won't leave me alone

These wounds won't seem to heal
This pain is just too real
There's just too much that time cannot erase

When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
And I held your hand through all of these years
But you still have
All of me

You used to captivate me

By your resonating light
Now I'm bound by the life you left behind
Your face it haunts
My once pleasant dreams
Your voice it chased away
All the sanity in me

These wounds won't seem to heal
This pain is just too real
There's just too much that time cannot erase

When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
And I held your hand through all of these years
But you still have
All of me

I've tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone
But though you're still with me
I've been alone all along

When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
And I held your hand through all of these years
But you still have
All of me

[Crazy Shark]

Are you there?
Are you watching me?
As I lie here on this floor
They say you feel what I do
They say you’re here every moment
Will you stay?
Stay ‘till the darkness leaves
Stay here with me
I know you’re busy, I know I’m just one
But you might be the only one who sees me
The only one to save me

Why is it so hard?
Why can’t you just take me?
I don’t have much to go
Before I fade completely

Can you feel how cold I am?
Do you cry as I do?
Are you lonely up there all by yourself?
Like I have felt all my life
The only one to save mine

How are you so strong?
What’s it like to feel so free?
Your heart is really something
Your love, a complete mystery to me

Are you there watching me?
As I lie here on this floor
Do you cry, do you cry with me?
Cry with me tonight

Are you there?
Are you watching me?

[Crazy Shark]

Playground schoolbell rings
Again
Rain clouds come to play
Again

Has no one told you she's not breathing
Hello
I'm your mind
Giving you someone to talk to...
Hello

If I smile and don't
Believe

Soon I know I'll wake from this dream

Don't try to fix me I'm not broken
Hello
I'm the lie
Living for you so you can hide
Don't cry

Suddenly I know I'm not sleeping
Hello
I'm still here
All thats left of yesterday

[Crazy Shark]

I've been twisting and turning, in a space that's too small
I've been drawing the line and watching it fall
You've been closing me in, closing the space in my heart
Watching us fading and watching it all fall apart

Well I can't explain, why it's not enough
So I gave it all to you
and if you leave me now
Oh just leave me now
It's the better thing to do
It's time to surrender
It's been too long pretending
There's no use in trying
When the pieces don't fit anymore
The pieces don't fit here anymore

You pulled me under, I had to give in
Such a beautiful mess, thats breaking my skin
Well I hide all the bruises, I hide all the damage thats done
But I'll show how I'm feelin, until all the feeling has gone

Mmm,
Well I can't explain, why it's not enough
Coz I gave it all to you

And if you leave me now
Oh just leave me now
It's the better thing to do
Well it's time to surrender
It's too long pretending
There's no use in trying
When the pieces don't fit anymore
The pieces don't fit here anymore

Mmm,
Oh don't misunderstand, how i feel
Coz I've tried, yes I've tried
Still I don't know why
No I don't know why, I don't know why
Why I can't explain, why it's not enough
I gave it all to you and if you leave me now
just leave me now it's the better thing to do
Well it's time to surrender
It's been too long pretending
There's no use in trying
When the pieces don't fit anymore
The pieces don't fit here anymore

The pieces don't fit here anymore

[Crazy Shark]

In my life I don't mean much to anyone
I've lost my way can't go back anymore
Once I had everything now it's gone
Don't tell me again coz I've heard it all before

Some people say that I'm not worth it
I've made mistakes but nobody's perfect
Guess I'll give it a try

I've got one last chance to get myself together

I can't lose no more time it's now or never and I try to remember who I used to be
I've got one more chance to get myself together

The time has come for me to change again
I can't carry on like this, I will lose my friends
Don't say that you have given up on me
Just give me the time and space to heal my head

I don't wanna be misunderstood
I've got to take this chance and make it into something good

[Crazy Shark]

Young girl, don't cry
I'll be right here when your world starts to fall
Young girl, it's all right
Your tears will dry, you'll soon be free to fly

When you're safe inside your room you tend to dream
Of a place where nothing's harder than it seems
No one ever wants or bothers to explain
Of the heartache life can bring and what it means

When there's no one else
Look inside yourself
Like your oldest friend
Just trust the voice within
Then you'll find the strength
That will guide your way
You will learn to begin
To trust the voice within

Young girl, don't hide
You'll never change if you just run away
Young girl, just hold tight
And soon you're gonna see your brighter day

Now in a world where innocence is quickly claimed
It's so hard to stand your ground when you're so afraid
No one reaches out a hand for you to hold
When you're lost outside look inside to your soul

When there's no one else
Look inside yourself

Like your oldest friend
Just trust the voice within
Then you'll find the strength
That will guide your way
You will learn to begin
To trust the voice within

Yeah...
Life is a journey
It can take you anywhere you choose to go
As long as you're learning
You'll find all you'll ever need to know

You'll break it
You'll make it
Just don't go forsaking yourself
No one can stop you
You know that I'm talking to you

When there's no one else
Look inside yourself
Like your oldest friend
Just trust the voice within
Then you'll find the strength
That will guide your way
You will learn to begin
To trust the voice within

Young girl don't cry
I'll be right here when your world starts to fall
