Live like you were dyin’ – Tim McGraw
He said I was in my early forties
with a lot of life before me
when a moment came that stopped me on a dime
and I spent most of the next days
looking at the x-rays
Talking bout the options
and talking bout sweet time
I asked him when it sank in
that this might really be the real end
how’s it hit you when you get that kinda news
man what’d you doand he said
I went sky diving
I went Rocky Mountain climbing
I went 2.7 seconds on a bull named fumanchu
and I loved deeper and I spoke sweeter
and I gave forgiveness I’d been denying
and he said someday I hope you get the chance
to live like you were dying.He said I was finally the husband
that most the time I wasn’t
and I became a friend a friend would like to have
and all the sudden going fishin
wasn’t such an imposition
and I went three times that year I lost my dad
well I finally read the good book
and I took a good long hard look
at what I’d do if I could do it all againand then
I went sky diving
I went Rocky Mountain climbing
I went 2.7 seconds on a bull named fumanchu
and I loved deeper and I spoke sweeter
and I gave forgiveness I’d been denying
and he said someday I hope you get the chance
to live like you were dying.Like tomorrow was a gift and you got eternity to think about
what’d you do with it what did you do with it
what did I do with it
what would I do with it?Sky diving
I went Rocky Mountain climbing
I went 2.7 seconds on a bull named fumanchu
and then I loved deeper and I spoke sweeter
and I watched an eagle as it was flying
and he said someday I hope you get the chance
to live like you were dying.
To live like you were dying
To live like you were dying
To live like you were dying
To live like you were dying23 January, 2006 at 11:03 am #184677How Come The World Won’t Stop – Anastacia
hmmm
Somebody told me
you were not coming home
the words are spinnin’ in time
and the air suddenly went coldThe sun is still shining
but everything feels like rain, oh
and if I had one wish
it would be to see you againNothing’s fair
when we loose
without a moment to say goodbyeHow come the world won’t stop spinning
now that you’re gone (now that you’re gone)
I know every end has beginnings
but this one’s all wrong (this one’s all wrong)
so wrong, so wrongCaught in the middle
wrong place, wrong time
and I’m hopelessly missing you
and I can’t stop denyNothing’s fair anymore
and I know there’s a better place
and I’ll never stop dreaming of you
oooohHow come the world won’t stop spinning
(now that you’re gone) now that you’re gone
I know every end has beginnings
but this one’s all wrong (this one’s all wrong)
so wrong, so wrongHow can the seasons keep changing
since you disappeared
oh yeah
(tell me) how come the world won’t stop
how come the world won’t stopSweet tears are shed
this pain we lay to rest
it’s hard lettin’ go
but I keep movin’ on
in a place I don’t belongHow come the world (stop spinning)
said now that you’re gone
I know every end has beginning
said this one’s all wrong
said this one’s all wrong
(how can the seasons) keep changing
since you disappeared
oh, you’re gone
you’re gone
how come the world won’t stop
how come the world won’t stopHow come the world won’t stop spinning
now that you’re gone
yeah heya
I know every end has beginning
but this one’s all wrong
so wrong23 January, 2006 at 11:09 am #184678Sometimes You Can’t Make It On Your Own – U2
Tough, you think you’ve got the stuff
You’re telling me and anyone
You’re hard enoughYou don’t have to put up a fight
You don’t have to always be right
Let me take some of the punches
For you tonightListen to me now
I need to let you know
You don’t have to go it aloneAnd it’s you when I look in the mirror
And it’s you when I don’t pick up the phone
Sometimes you can’t make it on your ownWe fight all the time
You and I…that’s alright
We’re the same soul
I don’t need…I don’t need to hear you say
That if we weren’t so alike
You’d like me a whole lot moreListen to me now
I need to let you know
You don’t have to go it aloneAnd it’s you when I look in the mirror
And it’s you when I don’t pick up the phone
Sometimes you can’t make it on your ownI know that we don’t talk
I’m sick of it all
Can – you – hear – me – when – I –
Sing, you’re the reason I sing
You’re the reason why the opera is in me…Where are we now?
I’ve still got to let you know
A house still doesn’t make a home
Don’t leave me here alone…And it’s you when I look in the mirror
And it’s you that makes it hard to let go
Sometimes you can’t make it on your own
Sometimes you can’t make it
The best you can do is to fake it
Sometimes you can’t make it on your own23 January, 2006 at 11:13 am #184679D.O.A. – Foo Fighters
Yeah, you know I did it
It’s over and I feel fine
Nothing you can say is gonna change my mind
Waited, and i wait the longest night
Nothing like the taste of sweet declineI went down and i fell, i fell so fast
Dropping like the grains in an hour glass
Never say forever ’cause nothing lasts
Dancing with the bones of my buried pastNever mind there’s nothing I could do
Bet your life there’s something killing you.It’s a shame we have to die my dear
No-one’s getting out of here alive
This time
What a way to go but have no fear
No-one’s getting out of here alive
This timeI’m finished, i’m getting you off my chest
Made you come clean in a dirty dress
A promise is a promise you kept in check
Hard to cross a heart that beats its bestTake a good hard look for the very last time
The very last one in a very long line.
Only took a second to say goodbye
Been a pleasure, but the pleasure’s been mine all mineNever mind there’s nothing I could do
Bet your life there’s something killing you.It’s a shame we have to die my dear
No-one’s getting out of here alive
This time
What a way to go but have no fear
No-one’s getting out of here alive
This timeAin’t no way
D.O.A
Ain’t no way
D.O.ATake a good hard look for the very last time
The very last one in a very long line
Only took a second to say goodbye
Been a pleasure, but the pleasure’s been mine all mineNever mind there’s nothing I could do
Bet your life there’s something killing you.It’s a shame we have to die my dear
No-one’s getting out of here alive
This time
What a way to go but have no fear
No-one’s getting out of here alive
This timeIt’s a shame we have to disappear
No-one’s getting out of here alive
This time
This time
This time23 January, 2006 at 11:16 am #184680Somebody’s Watching Me – Warmen [Originally performed by Rockwell]
I’m just an average man with an average life
I work from nine to five, hey hell I pay the price
But I want is to be left alone in my average home
But why do I always feel like I’m in the Twilight ZoneI always feel like somebody’s watchin’ me
And I have no privacy
I always feel like somebody’s watchin’ me
Is it just a dream?When I come home at night
I lock the door real tight
People call me on the phone I’m trying to avoid
Well, can the people on TV see me or am I just paranoidWhen I’m in the shower, I’m afraid to wash my hair
I might open my eyes and find someone standing there
People say I’m crazy, just a little touched
But maybe showers remind me of Psycho too much
That’s why…I always feel like somebody’s watchin’ me
And I have no privacy
I always feel like somebody’s watchin’ me
Is it just a dream?I don’t know anymore
Are the neighbors watching me
Well is the mailman watching me
And I don’t feel safe anymore, oh what a mess
I wonder who’s watching me now?
Who?
The IRS?I always feel like somebody’s watchin’ me
And I have no privacy
I always feel like somebody’s watchin’ me
Is it just a dream?23 January, 2006 at 11:18 am #184681Spank me – Apulanta
Spank me…
Spank me…Your dirty finger seems to make me happy
Now the shining ones are pointing at meAnd they all say, you are not alone here
So they all say, so they say to meSpank me, hey turn me over baby
Spank me, hey turn me over baby
Spank me, hey would you do it to meThe visitors in my head keep telling me
I fought the world but it’s not for us to seeAnd they all say, say that I’m an angel
So they all say, so they say to meSpank me, hey turn me over baby
Spank me, hey turn me over baby
Spank me, hey would you do it to meThat kind of love is all that you’ve been living for
Inside your mind there is a room that has no doorThat kind of love is all that you’ve been waiting for
Your happy friend will make it all right hereSpank me, hey turn me over baby
Spank me, hey turn me over baby
Spank me, hey would you do it to meWhy don’t you do it to me
23 January, 2006 at 11:20 am #184682Somebody to Love – Jim Carrey [Originally performed by Jefferson Airplane]
When the truth is found to be lies
And all the joys within you diesDon’t you want somebody to love
Don’t you need somebody to love
Wouldn’t you love somebody to love
You better find somebody to loveWhen the garden flowers, they are dead, yes
And your mind is so full of dreadDon’t you want somebody to love
Don’t you need somebody to love
I’d really like somebody to love
But it’s hard to find somebody to loveYour eyes, I say your eyes, they look like his
But in your head baby
I’m afraid you don’t know where it isDon’t you want somebody to love
Don’t you need somebody to love
Wouldn’t you love somebody to love
You better find somebody to loveTears are running, running in your bed
And your friends baby, they treat you like a guestDon’t you want somebody to love
Don’t you need somebody to love
I’d really like somebody to love
But it’s hard to find somebody to love23 January, 2006 at 11:37 am #184683Pelimies – Martti Vainaa & Sallitut aineet
Na-na-na-naa-na-na-nan-nan-naa…
tänä iltana ei tuu pakkeja
(tonight I’ won’t get dumped)Teen mitä vaan, pumppaan rautaa, juosten kierrän maan
Jos niin mä saan sinut innostumaan
Teen sulle sen pienen tempun vanhanaikaisen
Oon pelimies kovakuntoinen
(I’ll do anything, push iron, run around the world
If that’s the way to get you excited
I’ll make a little old fashion trick to you
I am a player in a good fit)Tahdon koskettaa (koskettaa)
voin sen tunnustaa (tunnustaa)
Saanko ehdottaa (ehdottaa)
iltaa kanssani?
(I want to touch
that I can confess
May I suggest
a night with me?)Tule niin vien sinut kahville
ja nakkikioskille jatkoille
siitä taksiin ja saatille
tänä iltana ei tuu pakkeja
Na-na-na-naa-na-na-nan-nan-naa…
tänä iltana ei tuu pakkeja
(Come and I’ll take you the coffee shop
and grill to an after party
tonight I’ won’t get dumped…)On joku muu, joka kuvioihin kompastuu
Oon pelimies, lähden uuteen nousuun
Muut väsähtää, venyy aamuyölle tunnit nää
Vain yksi jää silloin iskemään
(Some one else would get mixed up with his moves
I’m player, going to another rice
Others get tired, these hours become am
Only one stays to hit on others)Tahdon koskettaa (koskettaa)
voin sen tunnustaa (tunnustaa)
Saanko ehdottaa (ehdottaa)
iltaa kanssani?

that I can confess

(Come and I’ll take you the coffee shop
and grill to an after party
tonight I’ won’t get dumped…)Tänä iltana olen voittaja,
liha on vahvaa kun liha on heikkoa
Rintani hakkaa kuin rummunsoittaja,
mut tänä iltana olen voittaja
Tänä iltana aion toimia,
näyttää sisäisen eläimeni voimia
Ihanaa hirvet ja ihanaa leijonat,
tänä iltana juhlii voittajat
(tonight I’m a winner
muscle is strong when muscle is weak
my chest beats like a drummer
but tonight I’m a winner
tonight I’m going to do it
show the powers of my inner animal
wonderfull elks and wonderfull lions
tonight winners celebrate)Tahdon koskettaa (koskettaa)
voin sen tunnustaa (tunnustaa)
Saanko ehdottaa (ehdottaa)
iltaa kanssani?

Reading these makes me think of my poor old mum who left us a couple of years ago. She never got the chance to go sky-diving of course cos the NHS thought she needed a hip-replacement instead of her cancerous ovaries hoiked out and by the time they found out it was too late. They don’t write songs about things like that of course. I do sympathise with you Beattie but you made me cry (in a manly way of course) reading that and I don’t want to cry anymore. I think you have posted a fitting tribute here, I really do but I think these will make an awful lot of people shed tears.

No more please???????
terrible to hear :(
this is just because it’s been exactly one year of a terrible car accident that took away 6 of my friends, I wanted to remember them in a way since I didn’t go to church with others (not going there in any occasion)but don’t worry, I’m not going to “sing” only sad songs. There are many good memories :wink:
and to make this thing clear, we finns don’t get depressed in winter …we are depressed all the time :twisted:
