U2 - All I Want Is You
You say you want
Diamonds on a ring of gold
You say you want
Your story to remain untold
But all the promises we make
From the cradle to the grave
When all I want is you
You say you'll give me
A highway with no one on it
Treasure just to look upon it
All the riches in the night
You say you'll give me
Eyes in a moon of blindness
A river in a time of dryness
A harbour in the tempest
But all the promises we make
From the cradle to the grave
When all I want is you
You say you want
Your love to work out right
To last with me through the night
You say you want
Diamonds on a ring of gold
Your story to remain untold
Your love not to grow cold
All the promises we break
From the cradle to the grave
When all I want is you
You...all I want is...
You...all I want is...
You...all I want is...
You...

The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face
Roberta Flack
The first time ever I saw your face
I thought the sun rose in your eyes
And the moon and stars were the gifts you gave
To the dark and the empty skies, my love,
To the dark and the empty skies.
The first time ever I kissed your mouth
And felt your heart beat close to mine
Like the trembling heart of a captive bird
That was there at my command, my love
That was there at my command.
The first time ever I lay with you
I felt the earth move in my hand
I thought our joy would fill the earth
And last 'till the end of time, my love,
And last 'till the end of time.

I'm already there - Lonestar
He called her on the road
From a lonely cold hotel room
Just to hear her say I love you one more time
But when he heard the sound
Of the kids laughing in the background
He had to wipe away a tear from his eye
A little voice came on the phone
Said "Daddy when you coming home"
He said the first thing that came to his mind
I'm already there
Take a look around
I'm the sunshine in your hair
I'm the shadow on the ground
I'm the whisper in the wind
I'm your imaginary friend
And I know I'm in your prayers
Oh I'm already there
She got back on the phone
Said I really miss you darling
Don't worry about the kids they'll be alright
Wish I was in your arms
Lying right there beside you
But I know that I'll be in your dreams tonight
And I'll gently kiss your lips
Touch you with my fingertips
So turn out the light and close your eyes
I'm already there
Don't make a sound
I'm the beat in your heart
I'm the moonlight shining down
I'm the whisper in the wind
And I'll be there until the end
Can you feel the love that we share
Oh I'm already there
We may be a thousand miles apart
But I'll be with you wherever you are
I'm already there
Take a look around
I'm the sunshine in your hair
I'm the shadow on the ground
I'm the whisper in the wind
And I'll be there until the end
Can you feel the love that we share
Oh I'm already there
Oh I'm already
There

'did you ever look so nice' by the Samples
we were children in our places
with the world beneath our feet
and growing up was on our faces
I remember yours so sweet
did you ever look so nice
every turn became our future
there for us to make our bet
that the longer I remember
you're the hardest to forget
did you ever look so nice
and if we make it through these changes
to find that nothing was in stone
but the glance of our exchanges
did they ever look so nice

Piece by piece I release
Once was mine
Now undone
Turn blue like new orleans
And then down like a southern sun
I still feel you beneath my skin
I am tempted to throw my senses in
Cause its easier to fly
Than to face another night of southern sun
And your love is all around
Piece by piece I release
Once was mine
Now undone
Turn blue like new orleans
And then down like a southern sun
I still feel you
Beneath my skin
I am tempted to throw my senses in
Cause its easier to fly
Than to face another night of southern sun
And your love is all around
In the end to set me free
You laugh like a soul undeflated
I am pieces of the wind unrelated
I still feel you beneath my skin
I am tempted to throw my senses in
Cause its easier to fly
Than to face another night of southern sun
And your love is all around
In the end to set me free
Cause its easier to fly
In the end to set me free

The Foo Fighters
**EVERLONG**
Hello
I've waited here for you
Everlong
Tonight
I throw myself into
and out of the red out of her head she sang
Come down and waste away with me
down with me
Slow out you wanted it to be
over my head, out of my head she sang
and I wonder
when I sing along with you
If everything could ever feel this real forever
If anything could ever be this good again
the only thing I'll ever ask of you
you've got to promise not to stop when I say when
Breathe out
so I can breathe you in
Hold you in
and now
I know you've always been
out of your head out of my head i sang

^
nice one.

Edge of Seventeen - Stevie Nicks
And the days go by....
like a strand in the wind
In the web that is my own...
I begin again
Said to my friend, baby...
Nothin' else mattered
He was no more...than a baby then
Well he... seemed broken hearted...
something within him
But the moment...that I first laid...
Eyes...on...him...all alone...
On the edge of...seventeen
I went today...maybe I will go again...
tomorrow
And the music there it was hauntingly...
familiar
And I see you doing...
what I try to do for me
With the words from a poet...
and the voice from a choir
And a melody...nothing else mattered
The clouds...never expect it...
when it rains
But the sea changes colours...
but the sea...
Does not change
And so...with the slow...graceful flow..
of age
I went forth...with an age old...
desire...to please
On the edge of...seventeen
Well then suddenly...
there was no one...left standing
In the hall...yeah, yeah...
In a flood of tears
That no one really ever heard fall at all
Oh I went searchin' for an answer...
Up the stairs...and down the hall
Not to find an answer...
just to hear the call
Of a nightbird...singing...
come away...come away...
Well I hear you in the morning...
and I hear you...
At nightfall...
sometime to be near you...
Is to be unable...to hear you...
my love...
I'm a few years older than you...
are (I'm a few years older than you) my love
Just like the white winged dove...
sings a song ...
Sounds like she's singing...
whoo...whoo...whoo
Just like the white winged dove...
sings a song...
Sounds like she's singing...
ooo...baby...ooo...said ooo

"He's the Greatest Dancer" - Sister Sledge
One night in a disco
On the outskirts of Frisco
I was cruisin' with my favourite gang
The place was so boring
Filled with out-of-towners touring
I knew that it wasn't my thing
I really wasn't caring
But I felt my eyes staring
At a guy who stood out in the crowd
He had the kind of body
That would shame Adonis
And a face that would make any man cry
Oh... what... wow ! He's the greatest dancer
Oh... what... wow ! That I've ever seen...
The champion of dance
His moves would put you in a trance
And he never leaves the disco alone
Arrongance but not conceit
As a man who is complete(ly)
La crème de la crème
Please take me (don't go) home
He wears the finest clothes
The best designers, heaven knows
Ooh, from his head down to his toes
Halston, Gucci, Fiorucci
He looks like a still
That man is dressed to kill
Oh... what... wow ! He's the greatest dancer
Oh... what... wow ! That I've ever seen...
I love your moves...

Styx - Lorelei
When I think of Lorelei my head turns all around
As gentle as a butterfly she moves without a sound
I call her on the telephone, she says be there by eight
Tonight's the night she's moving in and I can hardly wait
The way she moves, ooh-ooh
I gotta say
Lorelei let's live together
Brighter than the stars forever
Lorelei let's live together
Brighter than the stars forever
Her eyes become of Paradise, she softly speaks my name
She brightens every lonely night, no one's quite the same
She calls me on the telephone, she says be there by eight
Tonight's the night she's moving in, it's time to celebrate
The way she moves, ooh-ooh
I gotta say
Lorelei let's live together
Brighter than the stars forever
Lorelei let's live together
Brighter than the stars forever

"First Kiss" - Signal 6 (a friend's band)
Just to kiss you
Just to kiss you would be enough
Do I risk you
Do I risk you and call your bluff
The spotlight follows
Follows the hero through the night
The midnight swallows
Swallows them all but you tonight
Do I close my eyes
Should I run for my life
What do i do with my hands
Am I doing this thing right
Just to kiss you
Your heart beats faster
Faster you through an unguided tour
Good boys ask first
Ask first to steal one at the door
Will she closed her eyes
She'll probably run for her life
What will she do with her hands
And is she doing this thing right
Just to kiss you
Just to kiss you would be enough
Do I risk you
When just to kiss you would fill me up
Do I close my eyes
Should I run for my life
What do I do with these two hands
Lord help me through tonight
Damn I love that song ... *Sigh*

ILL CATCH YOU ~ THE GET UP KIDS

I Got 5 On It - Luniz, Dru Down, Knumskull, Richie Rich, E-40, Yukmouth, Shock G, Spice 1,
Like Nyquil, I drop fever,
So either put your five up,
Or ya gots to leave it like Deva
Cause see ya,
Nigga perkin broke and smoke ya spliff all day
Go home and buy big tricky with his pretty Impal-a
I got five on the Hennessey, Seagram's, and 40's
Cause +This is How We Do It+ like Montell Jordan
I'm from the Oakland city, framed nigga is a gonna,
Now I'm blowin it up like Oklahoma
Put ya fi-ve with my fin,
Best believe we'll bend
Mo corners than you thought,
To somethin writers bought
More zig-zags believe that
Tokin, where you from?
Oakland
Smokin
In attempts to crack the chest plate,
The zips be so fluffy, the whole town loves me
An every event I'm sacked up,
So if ya need me, scream double R when ya see me
I got five on it,
Grab ya four, let's get keyed,
I got five on it,
Messin wit dat indo weed
I got five on it,
It's got me stuck and toed back,
I got five on it,
Potna, let's go half on a sack
E-40
Why ya treat me so bad?
40 makes it happen
Fives gets slapped and rubbin them girls
just a little bit of light weight
Flamboyant, potent fumes lingerin
mighty clouds and Northern Lights
You expect to bit the baron an you'll be violatin my civil rights
I'm startin to feel my scrilla
but perhaps today my scrilla ain't feelin me
For the simple fact that I'm off to the track with hella fools three
Pockets empty, pitchin five, man I'm dusted
Took off my hat, passed it around, sprinkle me
Me an E-40 to the head, comin fifth, plus
You let the lead bust,
Ready to do a murda, man?
Perved off the Hurricane, hurled again
Witness we'll bein off two-fifths equal,
Killing people like Jason, facin death every sequel
(Insane in the membrane!)
Bring the pain like Method
Neglected,
Smokin crips to the night to the brains for breakfast
Cause for the in-do fins do the evil that men do,
Give me fi-ve and I shall proceed and continue
Chorus
Yeah, it's been a while since I've hollered from the town,
Mess around heard young ginome said "I've gotta be down"
Cause new styles is goin down, look around you
Tunes from the Luniz spread round an round you
Back to get my O on, they let me flow on
The thirty-five on it,
Yeah, I'm on it,
Still brinin satin for them draws
Velvet for the mic and got a pound for the cause
Rollin up the cannabis, hittin the Mary Jane,
Smokin the five before it's tweleve o'clock
Sippin on Hurricane, ready to smoke on the indo
Rollin up my window, fittin to go to the land,
With a hand fulla brocoli,
When it comes to the sticky, I'm the man
Crutch nasty I be hittin the J so hard I hurl
Fall on the floor fittin to have a stroke THC ain't no joke
I got five on everything, let's get loaded and smoke
S-P-I-C-E about to hit it an croaaaakkkkk
Chorus
Ha ha, wassup baby
It's me, your boy to keep the song always tight
You little short on some ends?
Don't worry, I'll take care of that,
I got you

True Love Waits - Radiohead
I'll drown my beliefs
To have you be in peace
I'll dress like your niece
To wash your swollen feet
Just don't leave, don't leave
And true love waits
In haunted attics
And true love wins
On lollipops and crisps
Just don't leave, don't leave
I'm not living
I'm just killing time
Your tiny hands
Your crazy kiss and smile
Just lonely, lonely..
Just lonely, lonely..

Feel You Like A River
ATB feat. Heather Nova
I can feel you across the miles in my body
Almost physical, spiritual
Like there was no seperation
Like you were right beside me
Like a river
I can feel forever in my mind
I can always reach for you inside
We can stay together in our minds
Feel you like a river
Never die
Remember the bridge we crossed
Leaning out over the water
with the sun streaming in
Through the leaves
We can keep it alive
It's just energy
I can feel forever in my mind
I can always reach for you inside
We can stay together in our minds
Feel you like a river
Never die
Ooh ooh ooh...
And I feel, I feel, I feel you
Like a river
And I feel, I feel, I feel you
Like a river
I can feel forever in my mind
I can always reach for you inside
We can stay together in our minds
Feel you like a river
Never die
Ooh ooh ooh...
And I feel, I feel, I feel you like a river (x3)

Discoball World
by david garza
everyday i miss the you i used to know
before i let you down, before you let me go
we'd listen to the left side of the radio
and you were so fine with your train-track spine
i fell for
your coffee eyes
your half and half
white lies
back around '92
i lost god
i found you
i found you
i found you dancing with the blissed-out brothers
and the dreadlocked white girls
spinning like a discoball world
with the extra virgins and the gold-tooth stoners
spinning like a discoball world
the flowers that we stole from san jacinto
they're in the vodka vases by the window
i can't forget the day that you forgot me
when your kisses got so vicious
and i fell for
your coffee eyes
your half and half
white lies
back around '92
i lost god
i found you
i found you
i found you dancing with the blissed-out brothers
and the dreadlocked white girls
spinning like a discoball world
with the extra virgins and the laptop loners
spinning like a discoball world
can i dance with you, baby?
can i dance with you?
can i dance with you, baby?
can i, can i dance with you?
dance with you baby...
can i dance with you?
with you? with you?

"IF" by Bread

If a picture paints a thousand words,
Then why can't I paint you?
The words will never show the you I've come to know.
If a face could launch a thousand ships,
Then where am I to go?
There's no one home but you,
You're all that's left me too.
And when my love for life is running dry,
You come and pour yourself on me.
If a man could be two places at one time,
I'd be with you.
Tomorrow and today, beside you all the way.
If the world should stop revolving spinning slowly down to die,
I'd spend the end with you.
And when the world was through,
Then one by one the stars would all go out,
Then you and I would simply fly away

"Happy Together"
by The Turtles

Imagine me and you, I do
I think about you day and night, it's only right
To think about the girl you love and hold her tight
So happy together
If I should call you up, invest a dime
And you say you belong to me and ease my mind
Imagine how the world could be, so very fine
So happy together
I can't see me lovin' nobody but you
For all my life
When you're with me, baby the skies'll be blue
For all my life
Me and you and you and me
No matter how they toss the dice, it has to be
The only one for me is you, and you for me
So happy together
I can't see me lovin' nobody but you
For all my life
When you're with me, baby the skies'll be blue
For all my life
Me and you and you and me
No matter how they toss the dice, it has to be
The only one for me is you, and you for me
So happy together

i agree with everlong.
elliott smith "say yes"
im in love, with the world
