INDIA.ARIE

"Ready For Love"

I am ready for love
Why are you hiding from me
I'd quickly give my freedom
To be held in your captivity

I am ready for love
All of the joy and the pain
And all the time that it takes
Just to stay in your good grace
Lately I've been thinking
Maybe you're not ready for me
Maybe you think I need to learn maturity
They say watch what you ask for
Cause you might receive
But if you ask me tomorrow
I'll say the same thing

I am ready for love
Would you please lend me your ear?
I promise I won't complain
I just need you to acknowledge I am here

If you give me half a chance
I'll prove this to you
I will be patience, kind, faithful and true
To a man who loves music
A man who loves art
Respect's the spirit world
And thinks with his heart

I am ready for love
If you'll take me in your hands
I will learn what you teach
And do the best that I can

I am ready for love
Here with a offering of
My voice
My Eyes
My soul
My mind

Tell me what is enough
To prove I am ready for love

I am ready
 
^great choice.

BIG BUMP for a great thread that the newbies should add to. :)

Here's kind of how I'm feeling right now. Excuse the lack of capitalization, I can't be fucked to correct it.

Nada Surf- Inside of Love

watching terrible tv
it kills all thought
getting spacier than
an astronaut

making out with people
i hardly know or like
i can't believe what I do
late at night.

i wanna know what it's like
on the inside of love.
i'm standing at the gates
i see the beauty above
only when we get to see
the aerial view
will the patterns show
we'll know what to do

I know the last page so well
i can't read the first
so i just don't start
it's getting worse

i wanna know what it's like
on the inside of love
i'm standing at the gates
i see the beauty the above

i wanna know what it's like
on the inside of love
i can't find my way in
i try again and again

i'm on the outside of love
always under or above
i cant find my way in
i try again and again

i'm on the outside of love
always under or above
must be a different view
to be a me with a you

i wanna know what it's like
on the inside of love
standing at the gates i see
the beauty above

i wanna know what it's like
on the inside of love
of course i'll be alright
i just had a bad night.

i just had a bad night.
 
Eyes are feeling heavy
But they never seem to close
The fan blades on the ceiling spin
But the air is never cold
Even though you're next to me
I still feel so alone
I just can't give you anything
For you to call your own

And I can feel you breathing
And it's keeping me awake
Can you feel it beating?
My heart's sinking
Like a weight

Something I've be keeping
locked away behind my lips
I can feel it breaking free
With each and every kiss
I couldn't bear to hurt you
But it's all so different now
Things that I was of then
Have filled me up with doubt

And I can feel you breathing
And it's keeping me awake
Can you feel it beating?
My heart's sinking
Like a weight

And I can feel you breathing
And it's keeping me awake
Couldnt stop my heart
It's always beating
Sinking like a weight

How am I supposed to feel
About the things I've done
I don't know if I should stay
Or turn around and run
I know that I hurt you;
Things will never be the same
The only love I ever knew
I threw it all away

And I can feel you breathing
And it's keeping me awake
Can you feel it beating?
My heart's sinking
Like a weight

And I can feel you breathing
And its keeping me awake
Couldn't stop my heart
It's always beating
Sinking like a weight

Yellowcard - Breathing
 
What's your flava
Tell me what's your flava [x4]

Girl you look to delicious bootylicious my words vary
And Fruitylicious strawberry dressed in cranberry
And I'm a penant shows how my jeans was blueberry
My truck colour flip the kings of purple to cranberry
A college cherry I heard she in love with the don
The first time I met I could tell she taste like butter pecan
If you don't think your tasty than baby go head save it
Cause Twista be messing with the flavors like Craig David
Tell em dogg

I met this fly girl in the club
Went by the name of pecan deluxe
This ice cream was high maintenance
When i took her out,
Man it cost me 20 bucks
Met this chick named walnut whip
Nearly made me sick to the point of throwing up
So i called chocolate chip
Wit the sweet toffe crisp
And i still cant get enough
Your what i want
Your what i need
I wanna taste ya (taste ya) take ya home wit me
You look so good
Good enough to eat
I wonder if i can peel your wrapper
If i can be your fantasy

What's your flava
Tell me what's your flava [x4]

I take 'em in the middle of July
With tha drop top down in the park
When it's summerin'
These ice creams lookin so fly
That i just cant lie
It all seems too bewildering
They got these grown men,
running round..
screaming out..
acting worse than children..
but who flow..
better know..
better stack cheddar..
get more tongue..
better than this ice-cream..
better than...
Your what i want
Your what i need
I wanna taste ya (taste ya) take ya home wit me
You look so good
Good enough to eat
I wonder if i can peel your wrapper
Be your fantasy

What's your flava
Tell me what's your flava [x4]

Baby maybe we can all cut see who you can call up
Girl I eat you all up you's a black walnut
Now gimme the cookies n cream and some chocolate chip mint
screamin licky licky while I'm leanin on some pimp shit
Went to a baller spot ran into a butterscotch
Girl you make me wanna dance you gonna shake your butt or not
She think she kinda tough bet she taste lick rocky road
Tropical when she got in the truck ooh girl your body cold

Hey, im taking em, apple and cinnamon
Girls arent feeling em cant stop drippin' em
Thats why they got me dribbling
Hot fudge sauce on the soles of my timberlands.
I them caramel with a hint of vanilla
Wit a little chocolate sprinkling
That make me spend my dividends
These sweet things make me feel like a kid again
Your what i want
Your what i need
I wanna taste ya (taste ya) take ya home wit me
You look so good
Good enough to eat
I wonder if i can peel yopur wrapper
Be your fantasy

What's your flava
Tell me what's your flava [x4]
 
Everyday I write the book - Elvis Costello

Everyday I Write The Book Lyrics

Don't tell me you don't know what love is
When you're old enough to know better
When you find strange hands in your sweater
When your dreamboat turns out to be a footnote
I'm a man with a mission in two or three editions

And I'm giving you a longing look
Everyday, everyday, everyday I write the book

Chapter One we didn't really get along
Chapter Two I think I fell in love with you
You said you'd stand by me in the middle of Chapter
Three
But you were up to your old tricks in Chapters
Four, Five and Six

The way you walk
The way you talk, and try to kiss me, and laugh
In four or five paragraphs
All your compliments and your cutting remarks
Are captured here in my quotation marks

Don't tell me you don't know the difference
Between a lover and a fighter
With my pen and my electric typewriter
Even in a perfect world where everyone was equal
I'd still own the film rights and be working on the
sequel

And I'm giving you a longing look
Everyday, everyday, everyday I write the book
 
To make you feel my love
~Garth Brooks~

When the rain is blowing in your face
And the whole world is on your case
I could offer you a warm embrace
To make you feel my love

When evening shadows and the stars appear
And there is no one to dry your tears
I could hold you for a million years
To make you fell my love

I know you haven't made your mind up yet
And I would never do you wrong
I've known it from the moment that we met
There's not doubt in my mind where you belong

I'd go hungry, I'd go black and blue
I'd go crawling down the avenue
There ain't nothing that I wouldn't do
To make you feel my love

The storms are raging on a rolling sea
And on the highway of regret
The winds of change are blowing wild and free
You ain't seen nothin' like me yet

There and nothin' that I wouldn't do
Go to the ends of the earth for you
Make you happy make your dreams come true
To make you feel my love



*SIGH*:D
 
Neil Diamond - This Time.

I like a lot of love songs. This one always really hits home when I think about my own life, and my own experiences.

Neil Diamond - This Time

If there was time enough for me
To do it all again
I promise you that I would find
A way to make it right this time.


This time I'd love you even more.
I never thought I could.
But now I know that I would find
A way to make it right this time.


Over again,
I close my eyes and I keep reliving it
Over again.
It's over but then
I got my dream
Don't no one dare tell me no.
And you'll be mine this time for sure.
Only got to show I care the way I do.
And I'd be there this time for you.


If there was time enough to say
The things I feel inside
I promise you I'd find a way,
A way to make it right this time.


Over again,
I close my eyes and I keep reliving it
Over again.
It's over but then
I got my dream
Don't no one dare tell me no.


And I'll be there this time for sure
'Cause I'm not the same man that I was before,
And I'm nothing at all if I'm not yours.
I only got to show I care the way I do,
And I'll be there this time for you.
Yes, I'll be there this time for you.

shal :D
 
Im a pessismistic, so here:
Bright Eyes- I want a lover i dont have to love.


I picked you out of a crowd and talked to you.

I said: "I like your shoes."

You said, "Thanks, can I follow you?"

So it's up the stairs and out of view -
No prying eyes
I poured some wine
I asked your name, you asked the time...
Now its 2 o'clock -
the club is close and we're up the block
Your hands on me; pressing hard against your jeans
Your tounge in my mouth, trying to keep the words from coming out
You didn't care to know who else may have been before you

I want a lover I don't have to love.
I want a girl too sad to give a fuck.
Where is the kid with the chemicals?
I thought he said to meet him here, but I'm not sure
I got the money if you've got the time

You said, "It feels good."

I said: "I'll give it a try."

Then my mind went dark -
We both forgot where your car was parked
Let's just take the train
I'll meet up the band in the morning
Bad actors with bad habits
Some sad singers they just play tragic
and the phones ringing and the van's leaving
Let's just keep touching; let's just keep, keep singing...

I want a lover I don't have to love
I want a boy - so drunk he doesn't talk
There is the kid with the chemicals
I have a hunger and I can't seem to get full
I need some meaning I can memorize
The kind I have always seem to slip my mind

But you...
But you..
you write
such pretty words
But life is no storybook
Love's an excuse to get hurt
and to hurt

Do you like to hurt?
then hurt me...
then hurt me...
then hurt me....


Okay, for all you lovey dovey ones, i really do like Truly Madly Deeply by savage garden, even though its a BIT too cliched.
 
How could I forget?

PS, You Rock My World - Eels

I was at a funeral the day I realised
I wanted to spend my life with you
sitting down on the steps at the old post office
the flag was flying at half mast
and I was thinkin' 'bout how everyone was dying
and maybe it is time to live

I don't know where we're going
I don't know what we'll do

walked into the thrif-tee
saw the man with the hollow eyes
who didn't give me all my change
but it didn't bother me this time
'cause I know I only got this moment
and it's good

I went to the gas station
old woman honked her horn
waiting for me to fix her car
I don't know where we're going
I don't know what we'll do

laying in bed tonight I was thinking
and listening to all the dogs
and the sirens and the shots
and how the careful man tries to dodge the bullets
while a happy man takes a walk
and maybe it is time to live

(super poignant because it's the last song on an album that deals with his sister's suicide and his mother's death from cancer).
 
I nearly cried when I first heard this song... :(

Immortal Technique- You Never Know.

[Verse 1]
She was on her way to becoming a college graduate
Wouldn't even stop to talk to the average kid
The type of latina I'd sit and contemplate marriage with
Fuck the horse and carriage shit, her love was never for hire
Disciplined, intellectual beauty's what I desire
Flyer than Salma Hayek or Jennifer Lopez
Everyone told me, kickin' it to her was hopeless
At first I just thought, she didn't mess with broke kids
The thug niggaz always talking about, how they smoke kids
But the rich-sniff-coke kids got no play
"I'm not even interested" is what her body language would say
Everyone around the way, gave up trying to get in it
It didn't matter how good your game was, she wasn't with it
On the block, bitches was jealous, but wouldn't admit it
Talk shit, and deny to everyone that they did it
'Cause they regreted the long list of niggaz that they let hit it
And no one ever gave them shit except McDonald's and did-dick
Smoking weed with thoughts of envy, whenever they lit it
She smoked intelligently and they bit it, always trying to copy
But when they tried to use her vocab, they sounded sloppy
She had a style, all her own, respectful and pure
I was sick in the head for her, and there wasn't a cure

[Hook - Jean Grae]
Don't you know that, time waits for no man
Not fate, it's all planned
I'm blessed just to know you
I've loved and I've lost just to hold you all night
Can't find, a reason why
God came, to you and I
If I had the chance again, I'd never let you go
Hold tight to your love, 'cause you never know

[Verse 2]
Her eyes are brown and beautiful, yet empty and sad
I used to talk to her occasionally, and she was glad
That I wasn't just another nigga trying to get in it
So every now and then we'd stop and talk for a minute
I didn't have a gimmick so the minutes turned to hours
On her birthday, I gave her a poem with flowers
Then I took her out to dinner after her cousin's baby shower
We talked about, power to the people and such
We spent more time together but it was never enough
I never tried to sneak a touch, or even cop a feel
I was too interested, in keeping it real
Perfectly honest and complete, she would always call me "carino,"
And never Technique, bought me a new book to read every 2 or 3 weeks
Forever changing the expression of my thoughts when I speak
It was because of her, I even deaded all of my freaks
She convinced me, to stop hangin' out on the streets
To stop robbin' and stealin', from people like you
Instead I took her out to the Apollo and the Bronxu
We sailed in Barrio (?) and the Metropolitan too
Got to the point when I was either with her or my crew
So I decided one day, to tell her my feelings was true
I couldn't live without her so I told her, facing my fears
But honey's only response, was a face full of tears
She could only sob hysterically, holding me tight
I tried to speak, but she wouldn't stop until I left sight
I felt like a moth who got himself too close to the light
Except I didn't burn, I turned cold after that night

[Hook]

[Verse 3]
I went on with my life, college and my career
Ended up locked up like an animal for a year
Where the C.O.'s talk to you like they were the overseer
Then I got sent to the hole, when my exit was near
At night in my cell, I'd close my eyes and I'd see her
Hold her close in my dreams, but when I woke she disappeared
Just an empty cell until the state gave me parole in the summer
came back, in tact and on track
But the fact of the matter, is I still felt cold
Even after my mother, hugged me, cryin' at home
My real niggaz would catch me thinkin', out of my zone
Fuckin' lots of different women, but I still felt alone
Relatively well-known around the New York underground
But I kept thinking of her and how we used to be down
The sound of her voice, and the beautiful smell of her hair
Though gone physically, somehow it was still there
I had to do something, because the shit was too much to bear
So I went and visited the building where she used to live
The world looks a lot different after you do a bid
The way your life done changed
While primitive minds (are) still stuck in the same game
Like her cousin who was on the corner slangin' cocaine
Stepped in the lobby and tapped the button next to her last name
Her mom buzzed me up and hugged me up, like a mother oughta
But her facial expression changed, when I asked about her daughter

[Hook]

[Verse 4]
She told me that there was a note for me, that was left behind
She had left it there waiting, for such a long time
I was inclined to ask about it but she brought it up first
I saw a tear swelling up in her eye, and then she cursed
She told me where the letter was and I started thinking the worst
Reversed my position, stepped over and opened the door
And sure enough there was an envelope with my name on the floor
"Nobody loves you more than me carino" is what the letter said

"By the time you get to read this, I'll probably be dead
But when you left in '97 a part of me went to Heaven
I thank God at least I got to know what love really was
But it hurt me, to see what true love really does
'Cause even though we never made love, you were all that there was
It was because I loved you so much that I had to make you leave
You made me doubt the way I thought, you made me want to believe
And then I slipped up, and I let you get close to me
It was hard to not be openly when people spoke to me
This was not the way I thought my life was supposed to be
Baby don't you see, I had a blood transfusion that left me with HIV
Hoped the end exists for me since late in 1993
I died a virgin, I wish I could've given myself to you
I cried in the hospital because there was no one else but you
Promise that you'll meet me in paradise inevitably
No matter what, I'll keep your love forever with me"

What happened for the rest of the day is still a blur
But I remember wishing that I was dead, instead of her
She was buried on August 3rd
The story ends without a sequel
And now you know why Technique, don't fucking fall in love with people
Hold the person that you love closely if they're next to you
The one you love, not the person that'll simply have sex with you
Appreciate them to the fullest extent, and then beyond
'Cause you never really know what you got, until it's gone

The Cure- Pictures of You

I've been looking so long at these pictures of you
That I almost believe that they're real
I've been living so long with my pictures of you
That I almost believe that the pictures are
All I can feel

Remembering
You standing quiet in the rain
As I ran to your heart to be near
And we kissed as the sky fell in
Holding you close
How I always held close in your fear
Remembering
You running soft through the night
You were bigger and brighter and wider than snow
And screamed at the make-believe
Screamed at the sky
And you finally found all your courage
To let it all go

Remembering
You fallen into my arms
Crying for the death of your heart
You were stone white
So delicate
Lost in the cold
You were always so lost in the dark
Remembering
You how you used to be
Slow drowned
You were angels
So much more than everything
Hold for the last time then slip away quietly
Open my eyes
But I never see anything

If only I'd thought of the right words
I could have held on to your heart
If only I'd thought of the right words
I wouldn't be breaking apart
All my pictures of you

Looking so long at these pictures of you
But I never hold on to your heart
Looking so long for the words to be true
But always just breaking apart
My pictures of you

There was nothing in the world
That I ever wanted more
Than to feel you deep in my heart
There was nothing in the world
That I ever wanted more
Than to never feel the breaking apart
All my pictures of you
 
Artist: Atmosphere
Album: God Loves Ugly
Song: Modern Man's Hustle

[Slug]
The first time I met the devil was at a motel 6
She left hell to spend her weekends on earth just for kicks
Sexy little bitch, shorter then expected
About 5 foot 5, didn't fit in the breast and thighs
Beautiful dark eyes, a strong stare
Large lips, soft hands and long hair
I said I'd make you smile for the simple fact I'm good at it
I said I'd make you smile just so I can sit and look at it

[Chorus]
I will show you all you need to know
You must hold on to anyone that wants you
And I will love you through the simple and the struggle
But girl, you got to understand the modern man must hustle

[Slug]
Who cares what Janes says? She always spits the same spit
I'd rather kill the radio then listen to the rain hit
Little sister needs conclusions on how she'll discover it through the pop music
Got used to the feeling of falling, but she'll never see her following
Bouncing back and forth between the heeling and the hollering
Riding the outer ring of your own private saturn
Thoughts scatter all across the grey matter

Little baby doll she doesn't know what to say to ya'll
The patience is short and of course the pride is way to tall
Break it all smash the past like it was made of glass
Aint no other way to make it last
It hurts to watch Lucy lose a dream
I've had the pleasure of seeing I hear her kick and scream
And when she calms down I'll turn the sound down
And put my arms around the little lost and found and I'll tell her that..

[Chorus]
I will show you all you need to know
You must hold on to anyone that wants you
And I will love you through the simple and the struggle
But girl, you got to understand the modern man must hustle

[Slug]
Hush little lady don't say a word
All the rest of the village gonna know you're disturbed
And if you let them know that you're vulnerable
Then there aint no stopping how far they open you slow
I'm a chapter in yout text book read me like a checkbook
Mistook love at first site for a sex look
Enough of the blind man's bluff, I wan't the good stuff
Trying to hookup a full belly and a foot rub
The modern man's hustle I dig it, I shuffle
Feed me your troubles and need me to cuddle (come on)
Bundle up in my mitten and coat
As cold as it gets I keep your winter afloat
So let the snow fall, (it's cold in town)
She doesn't want to understand why I still come around
She look at the mirror she don't see what I see
She holds no history of how precious she be
Lay your head on my chest, speak of the stress
Kick your feet up and rest, before we clean up the nest
I hate to see you upset it cramps the position
And if you didn't know you better listen (you better listen)
Cause...

[Chorus]
I will show you all you need to know
You must hold on to anyone that wants you
And I will love you through the simple and the struggle
But girl, you got to understand the modern man must hustle
