Every moment of my life,
I will testify to love.
Be a witness in the silence,
but words are not enough.


I do not know the title... I just heard the song.


_________________________________

You don't have to be physical to kiss a person; you just have to touch their heart... You don't have to say something wise to console; you just have to listen. You don't have to make love to create a blessing; you just have to put love in the things you do. You don't have to take a person for yourself to give love... You just give. You just give.

"I haven't been this scared in a long time
And I'm so unprepared, so here's your valentine
Bouquet of clumsy words, a simple melody
This world's an ugly place, but you're so beautiful to me"

Going Away to College - Blink 182

"Why there is no perfect place, yes I know this is true
I’m just learning how to smile
That’s not easy to do"

Learnin How to Smile - Everclear

"Live right now.
Yeah, just be yourself.
It doesn't matter if it's good enough for someone else.
It just takes some time, little girl you're in the middle of the ride.
Everything will be just fine, everything will be alright."

The Middle - Jimmy Eat World

"Hey, don't write yourself off yet.
It's only in your head you feel left out or
looked down on.
Just do your best, do everything you can.
And don't you worry what the bitter hearts are gonna say."

The Middle - Jimmy Eat World

"Reach down your hand in your pocket
Pull out some hope for me "

Long Day - Matchbox 20



*Forgotten Love*

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

~*~You have been the treasure in my hand. You have been the one who always stood beside me. So unaware, I foolishly believed that you would always be there. But then there will come a day, when I will turn my head and you will slip away.~*~

Maybe i love you too much?

Sometimes the sad things are the most beautiful.

"I forgot to tell you how much I love you, I'm sorry that you'll never know." - Me

Lookin’ in your eyes was just like
Starin’ at the sun
I Always thought I’d go blind
or end up all undone.
~Kris Delmhorst

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.
~Pink Floyd (Waters, Gilmour)


It’s the terror of knowing
What this world is about
Watching some good friends
Screaming let me out
~David Bowie

Common cool, he was a proud young fool in a kick-ass Wal-Mart tie
~Dave Carter and Tracy Grammer

Magic mirror if we only could
Try to see ourselves as others really would
~Leon Russell

I could go on forever...

Please don't ask me to keep in step... It's hard enough just to stay in line.

Actually, that David Bowie line should be attributed to Queen....Bowie was just part of the Duet.

Still...good song Razz

Sometimes I just cant sleep, thinking of
Everything we could have been.
-The Format
Give it Up
Interventions and Lullabies

So, is that what you call a getaway?
Tell me what you got away with.
Cause I've seen more spine in jellyfish.
I've seen more guts in eleven-year-old kids.
Have another drink and drive yourself home.
I hope there's ice on all the roads.
And you can think of me when you forget your seatbelt,
and again when your head goes through the windshield.

Now, how 'bout a country song, y'all? I'm sure many people around the world must think we Tennesseans are a bunch of honky-tonking, beer drinking rednecks. This is not the reality, but I do have some favorite country artists and Tim McGraw is definitely a favorite. Here is one of his songs that I think is from his best CD "Set This Circus Down" The song is "Grown Men Don't Cry." Here is the first stanza...

I pulled into the shopping center
And saw a little boy wrapped around the legs of his mother
Like ice cream melting they embraced
Years of bad decisions runnin' down her face
All mornin' I'd been thinkin' my life's so hard
And they wore everything they own, livin' in a car
I wanted to tell 'em it would be ok
But I got just got in my suburban and I drove away

But I don't know why they say grown men don't cry
I don't know why they say grown men don't cry

The wind can blow cold, it moans and it cries
When it carries the sound of a thousand goodbyes
But if you listen tonight on that high, lonely plain
You'll just hear my voice as it calls out your name
You'll just hear my voice as it calls out your name.


--from "Waltz Across Texas", written by Rodney Crowell/Emmylou Harris

Ok ok...some people are going to give me strange looks with this one.....similar looks, anyway, to those that hate my 'Robbie Williams' posts...


George Michaels - One More Try

I've Had Enough Of Danger
And people on the streets
I'm looking out for angels
Just trying to find some peace
Now i think it's time
That you let me know
So if you love me
Say you love me
But if you don't
Just let me go....

'Cos teacher
There are things that i don't want to learn
And the last one i had
Made me cry
So i don't want to learn to
Hold you, touch you
Think that you're mine
Because it ain't no joy
For an uptown boy
Whose teacher has told him goodbye

When you were just a stranger
And i was at your feet
I didn't feel the danger
Now i feel the heat
That look in your eyes
Telling me no
So you think that you love me
Know that you need me
I wrote the song, i know it's wrong
Just let me go....

And teacher
There are things
That i don't want to learn
Oh the last one i had
Made me cry
So i don't want to learn to
Hold you, touch you
Think that you're mine

Because it ain't no joy
For an uptown boy
Whose teacher has told him goodbye
So when you say that you need me
That you'll never leave me
I know you're wrong , you're not that strong
Let me go

And teacher
There are things
That i still have to learn
Hut the one thing i have is my pride
Oh so i don't want to
Hold you, touch you
Think that you're mine
Because there ain't no joy
For an uptown boy
Who just isn't willing to try
I'm so cold inside
Maybe just one more try

~~~

Suck it down.

You are like a hurricane
there's calm in your eye
and I'm gettin' blown away
to somewhere safer
where the feeling stays,
I want to love you but
I'm getting blown away.

good topic

Do I divide and fall apart?, cause my bright is too slight to hold back all my dark
-jesus christ, brand new

I know you're coming in the night like a thief, but i've had some time, O Lord, to hone my lying technique, i know you think that i'm someone you can trust, but i'm scared i'll get scared and i swear i'll try to nail you back up
-jesus christ, brand new

If I'm the sum of all my friends, then all my friends are some of me, and if you're some way just like them, then I am you to some degree.
you (don't) know me, the matches

Your promises, they look like lies
attack, 30 seconds to mars

It's so cold in this house, come and show me how it was
like eating glass, bloc party

Just bend the pieces 'till they fit, like they were made for it
ghost of a good thing, dashboard confessional

Evil home stereo, what good songs do you know?, evil me, oh yeah I know, what good curves can you throw?
bukowski, modest mouse

that is all for now =)

Two best lines in the same song:

"In my little town, I grew up believing God keeps his eye on us all. And he used to lean upon me as I pledged allegiance to the wall."

"Saving my money, dreaming of glory. Twitching like the finger on the trigger of a gun!"

My Little Town by Simon & Garfunkle

"Omigod!!!I am so much older than everyone here!" Erm...

A lonely road, crossed another cold state line
Miles away from those I love
Purpose hard to find
While I recall, all the world you spoke to me
Can help but wished that I was there
Back where I loved to be

Dear God
The only thing I ask of you is to hold her when I'm not around, when I'm much too far away
we all need, the person who can be true to you
but I left her when I found her, and now I wish I'd stayed
'Cos I'm lonely, and I'm tired, I'm missing you again, oh no
Once again

There's nothing here, for me on this barren road
There's no one here while the city sleeps, and all the shops are closed
Can't help but think, all the time I've had with you
Pictures and some memories, will have to help me through

Some search, never finding a way
Before love, it wastes away
I've found you, something told me to stay
But I gave in, so selfish way
And how I miss someone to hold, when hope begins to fade..

Avenged Sevenfold - Dear God

And like a flood
His mercy rains
Unending love
Amazing grace"

Cole Porter has probably got the highest %age of great lines. Here's a great intro, for example, to one of his songs, You're The Top, from the show Anything Goes, 1934.

At words poetic I'm so pathetic
That I always have found it best
Instead of getting 'em off my chest,
To let 'em rest - unexpressed.
I hate parading my serenading,
As I'll probably miss a bar,
But if this ditty is not so pretty,
At least it'll tell you how great you are.


Get Curious!
