ON HIS SIDE OF THE BED HES SLEEPING LIKE A BABY
DREAMS ARE DANCING IN HIS HEAD
LYING WITH HIS LADY,
IT’S A PEACEFUL NIGHT AND EVERYTHINGS JUST FINE
ON HIS SIDE OF THE BED
BUT ON HER SIDE OF THE BED THOSE BIG BROWN EYES ARE CRYING
FROM THE THINGS HE NEVER SAYS
AND DEEP INSIDE SHES DYING
AS SHE TURNS TO FACE THE WALL, THERES NO LOVE AT ALL
ON HER SIDE OF THE BEDIF HE’D JUST REACH OUT SHE’D FORGET ABOUT
ALL THE TIMES THAT HE LET HER DOWN
OH BUT IN HIS MIND EVERYTHINGS ALL RIGHT
WHEN THE LIGHTS GO OUTNOW ON HIS SIDE OF THE BED
HE NEVER EVEN NOTICED HER NEGLEGE OF RED
THE VERY SAME ONE THAT SHE WORE THE NIGHT THAT THEY WERE WED
BUT HE NEVER TURNED HIS HEAD
TO HER SIDE OF THE BEDIF HE’D JUST REACH OUT SHE’D FORGET ABOUT
ALL THE TIMES HE LET HER DOWN
OH BUT IN HIS MIND EVERYTHINGS ALL RIGHT
WHEN THE LIGHTS GO OUTNOW ON HIS SIDE OF THE BED
HE WAKES UP AND TURNS TO SAY I LOVE YOU, BUT INSTEAD
ALL HE FINDS ARE PAGES FULL OF WORDS SHE NEVER SAID
AND THAT’S ALL SHE LEFT
ON HER SIDE OF THE BEDGretchen Wilson- The bed
Very touching lyrics Slayer……
Man Out Of Time
So this is where he came to hide
When he ran from you
In a private detective overcoat
And dirty dead man’s shoes
The pretty things of Knightsbridge
Lying for a minister of state
Is a far cry from the nod and wink
Here at traitor’s gate‘Cause the high heel he used to be has been ground down
And he listens for the footsteps that would follow him aroundTo murder my love is a crime
But will you still love
A man out of timeThere’s a tuppenny ha’penny millionaire
Looking for a fourpenny one
With a tight grip on the short hairs
Of the public imagination
But for his private wife and kids somehow
Real life becomes a rumour
Days of dutch courage
Just three French letters and a German sense of humourHe’s got a mind like a sewer and a heart like a fridge
He stands to be insulted and he pays for the privilegeTo murder my love is a crime
But will you still love
A man out of timeThe biggest wheels of industry
Retire sharp and short
And the after dinner overtures
Are nothing but an afterthought
Somebody’s creeping in the kitchen
There’s a reputation to be made
Whose nerves are always on a knife’s edge
Who’s up late polishing the bladeLove is always scarpering or cowering or fawning
You drink yourself insensitive and hate yourself in the morningTo murder my love is a crime
But will you still love
A man out of timeWill you still love
A man out of time
Will you still love
A man out of timeElvis Costello
In the moonlight
When the shadows play
When the thought of what could happen
Takes your breath away
Sighs and whispers
Quiet laughter in the air
Unspoken invitations everywhereIn the moonlight
All the words you say
Make it relatively easy
To be swept away
In the half-light
Can we trust the way we feel
Can we be sure that anything is real?Stars keep secrets as they wander indiscretely
While the echoes of a song go drifting by
We must be careful not to lose our way completely
Or the magic that we seek here
We can’t be sure will be hereIn the morning
With the moon away
And if in each other’s arms
Is where we’re meant to stayIn the love light
When our eyes have grown accustomed to the daylight
We’ll see what waits for us to share
For all the things we’ve dreamed of in the moonlight
Will be thereWHAT’S UP LONELY (Kelly Clarkson)
Ooh, ooh, mmm, mmm, mmm
Blue, I’m gettin’ kinda close with you
Like a shadow I can’t lose
Pain, you’ve been hangin’ with me every day
Now you’re gettin’ in my way
I know you understand me
But don’t you think that maybe it’s time to move on?(Chorus:)
What’s up, lonely?
Seems you’re my only
Friend who wants to share my pain
Tell me, heartache
What’s it gonna take
For you to leave me alone today?
Just when I think that you’re gone, yeah
You’re in the mirror, looking back at me
So what’s up, lonely?(Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, yeah)
(Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)Sometimes, I wish you weren’t by my side
Can’t you find another shoulder?
‘Cause I, I wanna leave this broken heart behind
We’re both wasting too much time
Find someone else to rain on
I’m really gettin’ tired of singing this song
So long(Repeat chorus)
(Bridge:)
Don’t wanna give you a reason
To hang around anymore
You won’t be hurting my feelings
If you find another broken heart you can lean onGotta go, gotta move on
Gotta go, gotta move on
Just leave me alone(Repeat chorus)
Gotta go, gotta move on
Gotta go, gotta move on
Yeah, yeahInside the doors are sealed to love
Inside my heart is sleeping
Inside the fingers of my glove
Inside the bones of my right hand
Inside it’s colder than the stars
Inside the dogs are weeping
Inside the circus of the wind
Inside the clocks are filled with sand
Inside she’ll never hurt me
Inside the winter’s creeping
Inside the compass of the night
Inside the folding of the landOutside the stars are turning
Outside the world’s still burningInside my head’s a box of stars I never dared to open
Inside the wounded hide their scars, inside this lonesome sparrow’s fall
Inside the songs of our defeat, they sing of treaties broken
Inside this army’s in retreat, we hide beneath the thunder’s callOutside the rain keeps falling
Outside the drums are calling
Outside the flood won’t wait
Outside they’re hammering down the gateLove is the child of an endless war
Love is an open wound still raw
Love is a shameless banner unfurled
Love’s an explosion,
Love is the fire of the world
Love is a violent star
A tide of destruction
Love is an angry scar
A violation, a mutilation, capitulation, love is annihilation.Inside the failures of the light, the night is wrapped around me
Inside my eyes deny their sight, you’d never find me in this place
Inside we’re hidden from the moonlight, we shift between the shadows
Inside the compass of the night, inside the memory of your faceOutside the walls are shaking
Inside the dogs are waking
Outside the hurricane won’t wait
Inside they’re howling down the gateLove is the child of an endless war
Love is an open wound still raw
Love is a shameless banner unfurled
Love’s an explosion,
Love is the fire at the end of the world
Love is a violent star
A tide of destruction
Love is an angry scar
The pain of instruction
Love is a violation, a mutilation, capitulation,
Love is annihilation.I climb this tower inside my head
A spiral stair above my bed
I dream the stairs don’t ask me why,
I throw myself into the skyLove me like a baby, love me like an only child
Love me like an ocean; love me like a mother mild
Love me like a father, love me like a prodigal son
Love me like a sister, love me like the world has just begun
Love me like a prodigy, love me like an idiot boy,
Love me like an innocent, love me like your favorite toy
Love me like a virgin, love me like a courtesan,
Love me like a sinner, love me like a dying man.Annihilate me, infiltrate me, incinerate me, accelerate me, mutilate me, inundate me, violate me, implicate me, vindicate me, devastate me
Love me like a parasite, love me like a dying sun
Love me like a criminal, love me like a man on the runRadiate me, subjugate me, incubate me, recreate me, demarcate me, educate me, punctuate me, evaluate me, conjugate me, impregnate me, designate me, humiliate me, segregate me, opiate me, calibrate me, replicate me
Etta James – Someone to watch over me
There’s a saying old
Says that love is blind –
Still we’re often told,
“Seek and ye shalI find.”
So I’m going to seek
A certain lad I’ve had in mind.
Looking everywhere,
Haven’t found him yet;
He’s the big affair
I cannot forget.
Only man I ever
Think of with regret.
I’d like to add his initials to my monogram.
Tell me, where is the shepherd for this lost
lamb.
There’s a somebody I’m longing to see
I hope that he
Turns out to be
Someone who’ll watch over me.
I’m a little lamb who’s lost in the wood.
I know I could
Always be good
To one who’ll watch over me.
Although he may not be the man some
Girls think of as handsome
To my heart he carries the key.
Won’t you telI him please to put on some
speed –
Follow my lead –
Oh! How I need
Someone to watch over me.
Someone to watch over me.
