A Hymn.. as such..
Take these shoes
Click-clacking down some dead-end street
Take these shoes
And make them fit
Take this shirt
Polyester white trash Made in Nowhere
Take this shirt
And make it clean
Clean..
Take this soul
Stranded in some skin and bones
Take this soul
And make it sing
Sing..Yahweh
Yahweh
Always Pain before The Child is born
Yahweh
Yahweh..
Still I’m waiting for the dawnTake these hands
Teach them what to carry
Take these hands
Don’t make a fist
No..
Take this mouth
So quick to criticise
Take this mouth
Give it a kissX
Yahweh
Yahweh
Always Pain before a child is born
Yahweh
Yahweh..
Still I’m waiting for the dawnStill waiting for the dawn
Sun is coming up
Sun is coming up on the ocean
This love is like a drop in the ocean
This love is like a drop in the ocean..Yahweh
Yahweh
Always Pain before a child is born
Yahweh
Tell me now
Why the dark before the dawn?Take this city
This city should be shining all night yeah
Take this city
If it be Your Will
What no man can own
No man can take
Take this heart
Take this heart
Take This Heart
And make it break.U2

You are your father’s child
Sometimes we act as if we hate each other
A diferent fate, a diferent state of mind
That don´t mean we all can´t be satisfite
We are all brothers and sisters
We are all brothers and sisters
Some are black and brown
Others white and light
That´s all the difference I can remember
Different face, different kind of smile
That’s what we see but this’s we must realize
We are all brothers and sisters
We are all brothers and sisters
Earth is my mother, that is no other
So for you, so for all of us
So don’t look for winter storms
In time mankind was born
So for you, so for all of I
Love must live
Hate must die
Don’t draw the line don´t you be so blind
We are all brothers and sisters
We are all brothers and sistersI am no stranger in your town
Rasta seed is all around
So when you’re looking at me
Don´t think I am your enemyI am my father’s sun
You are your mother’s child
Sometimes we act as if we hate each other
A diferent fate, a diferent state of mind
That don´t mean we all can´t be satisfite
We are all brothers and sisters
We are all brothers and sisters…Ziggy Marley ~ Brothers and Sisters

All I Want For Christmas Is You Lyrics
I don’t want a lot for Christmas
There’s just one thing I need
I don’t care about presents
Underneath the Christmas tree
I just want you for my own
More than you could ever know
Make my wish come true…
All I want for Christmas
Is you…I don’t want a lot for Christmas
There is just one thing I need
I don’t care about presents
Underneath the Christmas tree
I don’t need to hang my stocking
There upon the fireplace
Santa Claus won’t make me happy
With a toy on Christmas day
I just want you for my own
More than you could ever know
Make my wish come true
All I want for Christmas is you…You baby
I won’t ask for much this Christmas
I won’t even wish for snow
I’m just gonna keep on waiting
Underneath the mistletoe
I won’t make a list and send it
To the North Pole for Saint Nick
I won’t even stay awake to
Hear those magic reindeer click
‘Cause I just want you here tonight
Holding on to me so tight
What more can I do
Baby all I want for Christmas is you
You…All the lights are shining
So brightly everywhere
And the sound of children’s
Laughter fills the air
And everyone is singing
I hear those sleigh bells ringing
Santa won’t you bring me the one I really need
Won’t you please bring my baby tome…
Oh I don’t want a lot for Christmas
This is all I’m asking for
I just want to see baby
Standing right outside my door
Oh I just want him for my own
More than you could ever know
Make my wish come true
Baby all I want for Christmas is
You…All I want for Christmas is you baby…[Repeat]

And what have you done
Another year over
And a new one just begun
And so this is Christmas
I hope you have fun
The near and the dear ones
The old and the youngA very merry Christmas
And a happy New Year
Let’s hope it’s a good one
Without any fearAnd so this is Christmas
For weak and for strong
For rich and the poor ones
The world is so wrong
And so Happy Christmas
For black and for white
For yellow and red ones
Let’s stop all the fightA very merry Christmas
And a happy New Year
Let’s hope it’s a good one
Without any fearAnd so this is Christmas
And what have we done
Another year over
And a new one just begun
And so Happy Christmas
I hope you have fun
The near and the dear one
The old and the youngA very merry Christmas
And a happy New Year
Let’s hope it’s a good one
Without any fearWar is over if you want it
War is over now28 December, 2005 at 3:45 pm #139026How to be Invisible
I found a book on how to be invisible
Take a pinch of keyhole
And fold yourself up
You cut along the dotted lines
You think inside out
And you’re invisibleEye of Braille
Hem of anorak
Stem of wallflower
Hair of doormatI found a book on how to be invisible
On the edge of the labyrinth
Under a veil you must never lift
Pages you must never turn
In the labyrinth
You stand in front of a million doors
And each one holds a million more
Corridors that lead to the world
Of the invisible
Corridors that twist and turn
Corridors that blister and burnEye of Braille
Hem of anorak
Stem of wallflower
Hair of doormatIs that the wind from the desert song?
Is that an autumn leaf falling?
Or is that you, walking home?
Is that the wind from the desert song?
Is that an autumn leaf falling?
Or is that you, walking home?
Is that a storm in the swimming pool?You take a pinch of keyhole
And fold yourself up
You cut along the dotted lines
And think inside out
You jump ’round three times
You jump into the mirror
And you’re invisibleKate Bush

oh honey child…
it’s no secret that the stars are falling from the sky
it’s no secret that our world is in darkness tonight
they say the sun is sometimes eclipsed by a moon
y’know i don’t see you when she walks in the room
it’s no secret that a friend is someone who needs your help
it’s no secret that a liar won’t believe anyone else
they say a secret is something you tell one other person
so i’m telling you
childLove
we shine like a burning star
we’re falling…. a man will beg
from the sky…. a man will crawl
tonight…. from the sheer face of love like a fly on a wall
it’s no secret at allit’s no secret that a conscience can sometimes be a pest
it’s no secret ambition bites the nails of success
every artist is a cannibal
every poet is a thief
all kill their inspiration
and sing about their grief
on and on..Love
we shine like a burning star
we’re falling…. a man will rise
from the sky….a man will fall
tonight…. from the sheer face of love like a fly from a wall
it’s no secret at all:evil:
:twisted:
Love
we shine like a burning star
we’re falling from the sky….
tonight….Love
we shine like a burning star
we’re falling….a man will rise
from the sky….a man will fall
tonight….from the sheer face of love like a fly from a wall
it’s no secret at alloh yeah
it’s no secret that the stars are falling from the sky
the universe exploded ’cause of one man’s lie
look i gotta go
yeah i’m runnin’ outta change
there’s a lotta things
if i could i’d rearrange:evil:

29 December, 2005 at 10:20 am #139028Talkin’ gypsy market blues
I was too late but I never got to choose
Talkin’ gypsy market blues
I was too late but I never got to choose
Gotta have them gypsy boots
Follow them by familiar root
Rambled round from town to town
Sleepin’ in a doorway still as a mouseSaw the bullfighter’s last stand
I’ve been drinkin’ dust
I’ve been kickin’ cans
All my family, they went home
Let me in Portugal, all aloneThought I saw that caravan
But it was just a car park man
Said to me as I stood in line
There’s nothing in the world as sad as timeWell if nothing comes to nothing
Then what’s the point?
I sat right down and I built my joint
Flat caps they just pass me by
The dust pneumonia left me dryTalkin’ gypsy market blues
I was too late but I never got to choose
Talking gypsy market blues
I was too late but I never got to chooseThree days later when I awoke,
My dust filled lungs could hardly cope
Realised I was not alone
I was in the old car park man’s homeLooked out the window at the local scenes
On the ledge were some grilled sardines
Then through the door in came the maid
Said Maria was her nameLong dark hair and copper skin
Washed away my seven sins
Said senor what’s this bad news
Told her of my gypsy bluesMaria laughed and said you’re cute
You don’t need no gypsy boots
Picked myself up off the floor
I don’t need them boots no moreCoral ~ Gypsy Market Blues
29 December, 2005 at 1:44 pm #139029I’m sailing away
Set an open course for the virgin sea
‘Cause I’ve got to be free
Free to face the life that’s ahead of me
On board I’m the captain
So climb aboard
We’ll search for tomorrow
On every shore
And I’ll try, oh Lord, I’ll try
To carry onI look to the sea
Reflections in the waves spark my memory
Some happy, some sad
I think of childhood friends
And the dreams we hadWe lived happily forever
So the story goes
But somehow we missed out
On the pot of gold
But we’ll try best that we can to carry on(yeah)
A gathering of angels appeared above my head
They sang to me this song of hope and this is what they saidCome sail away
Come sail away
Come sail away with me
(you guys)Come sail away
Come sail away
Come sail away with meCome sail away
Come sail away
Come sail away with me
(you guys ha)Come sail away
Come sail away

But much to my surprise
We climbed aboard their starship
And headed for the star thay said’Come sail away
Come sail away
Come sail away with me
(you guys)Come sail away
Come sail away
Come sail away with me
(everybody now)Come sail away
Come sail away
Come sail away with me
