Re: Lyrical Moments...
The best time I ever had
When you were mine said to myself to keep you near
Never let you go, but trains and boats and airplanes
Took me away from you
Away from all the love we had
From all the things we shared
And tell me, what can I do?
You're always on my mind
If I could sing my song to you
I'd tell you how my heart is broken too
From any corner of the world, I'd let you know
I'll always be your girl
I'm still in love with you
Lonely days and lonely nights
Since you've been gone I miss your touch
I miss your smile always by my side
I think about the times we had
And I wonder why, oh why
Boy, you had to steal my heart
When we were a world apart
So tell me baby what should I do?
Your'e always on my mind
If I could sing my song to you
I'd tell you how my heart is broken too
From any corner of the world I'd let you know
I'll always be your girl
I'm still in love with you
Still in Love with You ~ No Angels

Re: Lyrical Moments...
Life, it's ever so strange
It's so full of change
Think that you've worked it out
then BANG
Right out of the blue
Something happens to you
To throw you off course
and then you
Breakdown
Yeah you breakdown
Well don't you breakdown
Listen to me
Because
It's just a ride, it's just a ride
no need to run, no need to hide
It'll take you round and round
Sometimes you're up
sometimes you're down
It's just a ride, it's just a ride
don't be scared
don't hide your eyes
It may feel so real inside
but don't forget it's just a ride
Truth, we don't wanna hear
It's too much to take
Don't like to feel out of control
So we make our plans
Ten times a day
And when they don't go
our way we
Breakdown
Yeah we breakdown
Well don't you breakdown
Listen to me
Because
It's just a ride, it's just a ride
no need to run, no need to hide
It'll take you round and round
Sometimes you're up
sometimes you're down
It's just a ride, it's just a ride
don't be scared
don't hide your eyes
It may feel so real inside
but don't forget it's just a ride
Slowly, oh so very slowly
except that
there's no getting off
So live it, just gotta go with it
coz this ride's, never gonna stop
Breakdown
Don't you breakdown
No need to breakdown
No need at all
Because
It's just a ride, it's just a ride
no need to run, no need to hide
It'll take you all around
Sometimes you're up
sometimes you're down
It's just a ride, it's just a ride
don't be scared now
dry your eyes
It may feel so real inside
but don't forget enjoy the ride

Re: Lyrical Moments...
We walk the narrow path
beneath the smoking skies
Sometimes you can barely tell the difference
between darkness and light
Do you have faith in what we believe?
The truest test is when we cannot
when we cannot see
I hear pounding feet in the
in the streets below and the
and the women crying and the
and the children know that there
that there's something wrong
and it's hard to believe that
love will prevail
It won't rain all the time
The sky won't fall forever
And though the night seems long
your tears won't fall forever
When I'm lonely
I lie awake at night
and I wish you were here
I miss you
Can you tell me is there something more to believe in?
Or is this all there is?
And the pounding feet in the
In the streets below and the
And the window breaks and
And a woman falls, there's
There's something wrong, it's
It's so hard to believe that
love will prevail
It won't rain all the time
The sky won't fall forever
And though the night seems long
your tears won't fall
your tears won't fall
your tears won't fall
forever
Last night I had a dream
You came into my room
you took me into your arms
Whispering and kissing me
and telling me to still believe
But then the emptiness
of a burning sea against which we see
our darkest of sadness
Until I felt safe and warm
I fell asleep in your arms
When I awoke I cried again
for you were gone
can you hear me?
It won't rain all the time
The sky won't fall forever
And though the night seems long
your tears won't fall forever
It won't rain all the time
The sky won't fall forever
And though the night seems long
your tears won't fall
your tears won't fall
your tears won't fall
forever

Re: Lyrical Moments...
Flying on a free flight
Driving all night
With my machinery
'Cause I, I got the power
Any hour
To show the man in me
I got reputations
Blown to pieces
With my artillery
Whoa ho
I'll be guided in
We'll be ridin'
given what you got to me
Don't you struggle
Don't you fight
Don't you worry
'Cause it's your turn tonight
CHORUS:
Let me put my love into you, babe
Let me put my love on the line
Let me put my love into you, babe
Let me cut your cake with my knife
Oh, Like a fever
Burning faster
You spark the fire in me
Crazy feelings
Got me reeling
They got me raising steam
Don't you struggle
Don't you fight
Don't you worry
'Cause it's your turn tonight
Yeah
CHORUS
Cut it
Let me, let me
Oooh

Oh
Let me put my love into you, babe
Let me put my love on the line

Let me give it all
Let me give it all

Re: Lyrical Moments...
Honestly ok - Dido
I just want to feel safe in my own skin
I just want to be happy again
I just want to feel deep in my own world
But I'm so lonely
I don't even want to be with myself anymore
On a different day
If I was safe in my own skin
Then I wouldn't feel lost and so frightened
But this is today
And I'm lost in my own skin
And I'm so lonely
I don't even want to be with myself anymore
And I just say oh, oh
I feel, oh, oh
And I'm so lonely
I don't even want to be with myself anymore.
I just say oh, oh
And i'm so lonely
I feel oh, oh
I dont even want to be with myself anymore.
I just want to feel safe in my own skin
I just want to be happy again.

Re: Lyrical Moments...
I will not make the same mistakes as you did
I will not let myself cause my heart so much misery
I will not break the way you did
You fell so hard
Ive learned the hard way, to never let it get that far
Because of you, I never stray to far from the sidewalk
Because of you, I learned to play on the safe side
So I don't get hurt
Because of you, I find it hard to trust
Not only me, but everyone around me,
Because of you, I am afraid
I lose my way, And it's not too long before you point it out
I cannot cry, because I know that's weakness in your eyes
I'm forced to fake, a smile, a laugh, every day of my life
My heart can't possibly break, When it wasn't even whole to start with
I watched you die, I heard you cry every night in your sleep
I was so young You should have known better than to lean on me
You never thought of anyone else, you just saw your pain
and now I cry in the middle of the night for the same damn thing
Because of you..... etc.,
Because of You.. Kelly Clarkson

Re: Lyrical Moments...
sono di notte fonda
di labbra accese
di righe accennate appena
sono piccola donna
donna piccola
donna che non cresce
donna di verde acerba
non ancora cresciuta
donna di vaghe attese
sono di notte fonda
cerco ciò che non trovo
mi muovo a stento
tra fili di rosespine
piccola donna che aspetta
scintilla accesa
di luce e fuoco
donna di verde acerba
non ancora cresciuta
donna di vaghe attese
sono di notte fonda
mi perdo tra le rime
che vorrei dire
con belle parole
amore cuore padre madre
amore cuore padre madre

Re: Lyrical Moments...
Oh! Mama, Mama look there!
Your children are playing in that street again
Don't you know what happened down there?
A youth of fourteen got shot down there
The Kokane guns of Jamdown Town
The killing clowns, the blood money men
Are shooting those Washington bullets again
As every cell in Chile will tell
The cries of the tortured men
Remember Allende, and the days before,
Before the army came
Please remember Victor Jara,
In the Santiago Stadium,
Es verdad - those Washington Bullets again
And in the Bay of Pigs in 1961,
Havana fought the playboy in the Cuban sun,
For Castro is a colour,
Is a redder than red,
Those Washington bullets want Castro dead
For Castro is the colour...
...That will earn you a spray of lead
Sandinista!
For the very first time ever,
When they had a revolution in Nicaragua,
There was no interference from America
Human rights in America
Well the people fought the leader,
And up he flew...
With no Washington bullets what else could he do?
Sandinista!
'N' if you can find a Afghan rebel
That the Moscow bullets missed
Ask him what he thinks of voting Communist...
...Ask the Dalai Lama in the hills of Tibet,
How many monks did the Chinese get?
In a war-torn swamp stop any mercenary,
'N' check the British bullets in his armoury
Que?
Sandinista!

Re: Lyrical Moments...
Just posting one verse of this..
"Well I'm heavenly blessed and worldly wise

The future's so bright I gotta wear shades"

Re: Lyrical Moments...
Story of my life, searching for the right
But it keeps avoiding me
Sorrow in my soul, cause it seems that wrong
Really loves my company
He's more than a man, and this is more than love
The reason that the sky is blue
The clouds are rolling in, because I'm gone again
To him I just cant be true
And I know, he knows that I'm unfaithful and it kills him inside
To know that I am happy with some other guy, I can see him dyin'
Chorus:
I don't want to do this anymore, I dont wanna be the reason why
Everytime I walk out the door, I see him die a little more inside
I don't want to hurt him anymore, I don't want to take away his life
I don't wanna be...... a murderer
I feel it in the air, as I'm doing my hair, preparing for another date
A kiss upon his cheek, as he reluctantly asks, If I'm gonna be out late
I say I won't be long, just hangin' with the girls, I lie I didn't have to tell
Because we both know, where I'm about to go, and he knows it very well
'Cause I know that he knows that I'm unfaithful, and it kills him inside
To know that I'm happy with some other guy, I can see him dyin'
Chorus:
Our love... his trust, I might as well take a gun and put it to his head
Get it over with, I don't wanna do this... anymore
Chorus:

Roughneck and rudeness,
We should be using, on the ones who practice wicked charms
For the sword and the stone
Bad to the bone
Battle is not over
Even when it's won
And when a child is born into this world
It has no concept
Of the tone the skin is living in
It's not a second

Just as long as I stay
I'll be waiting
It's not a second
7 seconds away
Just as long as I stay
I'll be waiting
I'll be waiting
I'll be waiting
J'assume les raisons qui nous poussent de changer tout,
J'aimerais qu'on oublie leur couleur pour qu'ils esperent
Beaucoup de sentiments de race qui font qu'ils desesperent
Je veux les portes grandements ouvertes,
Des amis pour parler de leur peine, de leur joie
Pour qu'ils leur filent des infos qui ne divisent pas
Changer
7 seconds away
Just as long as I stay
I'll be waiting
It's not a second
7 seconds away
Just as long as I stay
I'll be waiting
I'll be waiting
I'll be waiting
And when a child is born into this world
It has no concept
Of the tone the skin is living in
And there's a million voices
And there's a million voices
To tell you what she should be thinking
So you better sober up for just a second
7 seconds away
Just as long as I stay
I'll be waiting
It's not a second
7 seconds away
Just as long as I stay
I'll be waiting
It's not a second
7 seconds away
Just as long as I stay

Re: Lyrical Moments...
We'll do it all
Everything
On our own
We don't need
Anything
Or anyone
If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?
I don't quite know
How to say
How I feel
Those three words
Are said too much
They're not enough
If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?
Forget what we're told
Before we get too old
Show me a garden that's bursting into life
Let's waste time
Chasing cars
Around our heads
I need your grace
To remind me
To find my own
If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?
Forget what we're told
Before we get too old
Show me a garden that's bursting into life
All that I am
All that I ever was
Is here in your perfect eyes, they're all I can see
I don't know where
Confused about how as well
Just know that these things will never change for us at all
If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?

Re: Lyrical Moments...
You took my hand, you showed me how
You promised me, you'd be around
Uh huh, that's right
I took your words, and I believed in everything
You said to me, Yeah, that's right
Chorus:
If someone said three years from now you'd be long gone
I'd stand up and punch them out, cause they're all wrong
and I know better cause you said forever
and ever.. who knew
Remember when we were such fools
and so convinced and just too cool
oh no, no, no
I wish I could touch you again
I wish I could still call you a friend
I'd give anything
When someone said count your blessings now
For they're long gone
I guess they just did'nt know how
I was all wrong, they knew better
Still you said forever
and ever.. who knew
Yeah, Yeah, I'll keep you locked inside my head
Until we meet again, until we, until we meet again
And I won't forget you my friend
What happened
Chorus:
Who Knew ~ Pink

Re: Lyrical Moments...
just a snippet of what's on just now
"If you think that a kiss is all in the lips
C'mon, you got it all wrong, man
And if you think that our dance was all in the hips
Oh well, then do the twist
If you think holding hands is all in the fingers
Grab hold of the soul where the memory lingers and
Make sure to never do it with a singer
Cause he'll tell everyone in the world"

Re: Lyrical Moments...
Strumming my pain with his fingers,
Singing my life with his words,
Killing me softly with his song,
killing me softly,
With his song telling my whole life
With his words,
Killing me softly,
With his song
One time, One time, (one time) hey yo L you know you got the lyrics
I heard he sang a good song, I heard he had a style,
And so I came to see him and listen for a while.
And there he was this young boy, stranger to my eyes,
Strumming my pain with his fingers,
(one time,one time)
Singing my life with his words,
(two times. two times)
Killing me softly with this song,
killing me softly,
With his song, telling my whole life,
With his words,
Killing me softly with his song.
I felt all flushed with fever,
Embarrassed by the crowd,
I felt he found my letters then read each one out loud.
I prayed that he would finish,
But he just kept right on-
Strumming my pain with his fingers, (One Time, one time!)
Singing my life with his words, (Two Times, two times!)
Killing me softly with his song,
Killing me softly
With his song,
Tellin' my whole life
With his words,
Killing me softly, with his song
Yo L-Boogie, boy L boy L, take it to the bridge
(busted)
wooahhh......woooooahh.....la la la la la la ....wooooah.. laaaaahhh... woooah..laaaaahhh Ah ah Ah ah Ah ah Ah
Strumming my pain with his fingers,
yes he was Singing my life with his words,
killing me softly with his song,
Killing me softly with his song,
Telling my whole life with his words,
Killing me softly with his song.
Strummin' my pain
YEAAA yea yeaaaaa
Yo,put cha hands together for l L boogie yah yaey yaey

Re: Lyrical Moments...
For another (slightly more geeky) version:
---
I tried to run my programs with Windows 95,
8 megs is recommended but I got only 5.
So there it was my system - completely obsoleted
Typing bad names with my fingers,
cursing out loud at my mouse,
killing my software with Windows,
killing my software with Windows,
needing more disk space for Windows,
needing new programs with Windows.

Re: Lyrical Moments...
Do you still keep paper flowers in the bottom drawer with your Belgian lace
Taking them out every year to watch the colors fade away?
Do you still believe in fairy tales, in battlements of shining castles
Safe from the dragons that lie beneath the hill?
Are you still a Russian princess rescued by a gypsy dancer
To anyone who'll listen is that a story you still tell?
You live a life of fantasy, your diary romantic fiction
Can't you see it's hard for me, can you see what I am trying to say?
It's a gentleman's excuse me so I'll take one step to the side
Can you get it inside your head I'm tired of dancing?
For every one step forward we're taking two steps back
Can you get it inside your head I'm tired of dancing?
I know you still like old fashioned waltzes
Your reflection in the mirror that you flirt with as you glide across the floor
But if I told you the music's over would you want to hear
That your dance card is empty that there's no-one really there?
Do you still believe in Santa Claus, that there's a millionaire
Looking for your front door with a key to a life that you'd never understand?
All I have to offer is the love that I have, it's freely given
You'll see its value when you see what I've tried to say
It's a gentleman's excuse me so I'll take one step to the side
Can you get it inside your head I'm tired of dancing?
For every one step forward I'm taking two steps back
Can you get it inside your head that from this one step forward
There's no turning back?
Can you get it inside your head I'm tired of dancing?
We're finished dancing

Re: Lyrical Moments...
You and I in a little toy shop
buy a bag of balloons with the money we've got
Set them free at the break of dawn
'Til one by one, they were gone
Back at base, bugs in the software
Flash the message, "Something's out there"
Floating in the summer sky
99 red balloons go by.
99 red balloons floating in the summer sky
Panic bells, it's red alert
There's something here from somewhere else
The war machine, it springs to life
Opens up one eager eye
Focusing it on the sky
As 99 red balloons go by.
99 Decision Street, 99 ministers meet
To worry, worry, super-scurry
Call out the troops now in a hurry
This is what we've waited for
This is it boys, this is war
The president is on the line
As 99 red balloons go by.
99 Kriegsminister
Streichholz und Benzinkanister
Hielten sich für schlaue Leute
Witterten schon fette Beute
Riefen: Krieg und wollten Macht
Mann, wer haette das gedacht
Dass es einmal soweit kommt
Wegen 99 Luftballons
99 dreams I have had
In every one a red balloon
It's all over and I'm standin' pretty
In the dust that was a city
If I could find a souvenir
Just to prove the world was here...
And here it is, a red balloon
I think of you and let it go.
