God’s World
Well the old man shuffles off
And he’ll curse the world and cough
And the young man who is watching
rushes off
And he vows to the sky
To have faith in you and I
And the old man who is watching
Slowly criesWell it’s God’s world and it’s safe and it’s easy
To justify your personal responsibilty
But it’s God’s world and it’s safe and it’s easy
To nullify all personal responsibiltyWell the young man makes a plan
That he’ll save all foreign lands
And at his right hand
We’ll all be singing
And he’ll vow to the Sky
To have faith in you and I
And the whole world that is watching
Slowly diesDon’t justify your personal responsibility
Don’t justify your personal responsibility9 October, 2005 at 11:58 am #138953All of us are travelers lost,
our tickets arranged at a cost
unknown but beyond our means.
This odd itinerary of scenes
– enigmatic, strange, unreal –
leaves us unsure how to feel.
No postmortem journey is rife
with more mystery than life.—
Tremulous skeins of destiny
flutter so ethereally
around me – but then I feel
its embrace is that of steel.—
On the road that I taken,
one day, walking, I awaken,
amazed to see where I have come,
where I’m going, where I’m from.This is not the path I thought.
This is not the place I sought.
This is not the dream I bought,
just a fever of fate I’ve caught.I’ll change highways in a while,
at the crossroads, one more mile.
My path is lit by my own fire.
I’m going only where I desire.On the road that I have taken,
one day, walking, I awaken.
One day, walking, I awaken,
on the road that I have takenthe book of counted sorrows.

This love together today
We may not have tomorrow
It’s not for us to say
Fate isn’t kind to lovers
It breaks the hardest hearts
Promise me you’ll remember..
How good we areWhy do I find a sadness
Under your sweetest kiss?
Destiny seems to whisper
It won’t stay like this..Whenever we’re together
I feel time standing still
I only know I love you
And I always will
If we should lose each other
Somewhere inside the dark
Promise me you’ll remember..
How good we areWhenever we’re together
I feel time standing still
I only know I love you
And I Always will
If we should lose each other
Somewhere inside the dark
Promise me you’ll remember..
How good we areTime isn’t kind to lovers
It breaks the hardest hearts
Promise me you’ll remember..
How good..
We are..“PROMISE ME YOU’LL REMEMBER”

you never made much sense
we never stood a chance
(if we’re honest)you were not the first
and i won’t be the last
but if it makes it better
well you can call me what you willget home late
no ones here
pace around the house
and sit in my chairand if you think of me
it does’nt mean a thing
so why don’t you just tell me
what you really think again?i don’t care what you call me
because it won’t hurt any morei know i let you down
and christ, you let me know
every time
and time againjust another afternoon
get drunk and disappear
so call me what you willrain it on down
what else can you throw at me
i hav’nt heard before?and tear me down
i am unforgivable
so why don’nt you just tell me
what you really think again?i don’t care what you call me
because it won’t hurt anymorerain it on down
what else can you throw at me
i hav’nt heard beforeand tear me down
i am unforgivable
so why don’nt you just tell me
what you really fucking think of me?and scream me on down
i am so forgettable

this is’nt killing me
but its no more then i deservei don’t care what you call me
because it won’t hurt anymore14 October, 2005 at 9:40 am #138957True Colours – Cyndi Lauper
You with the sad eyes
don’t be discouraged
oh I realize
it’s hard to take courage
in a world full of people
you can lose sight of it all
and the darkness inside you
can make you fell so smallBut I see your true colors
shining through
I see your true colors
and that’s why I love you
so don’t be afraid to let them show
your true colors
true colors are beautiful
like a rainbowShow me a smile then
don’t be unhappy, can’t remember
when I last saw you laughing
if this world makes you crazy
and you’ve taken all you can bear
you call me up
because you know I’ll be thereAnd I’ll see your true colors
shining through
I see your true colors
and that’s why I love you
so don’t be afraid to let them show
your true colors
true colors are beautiful
like a rainbow16 October, 2005 at 6:52 pm #138958Gorecki Lyrics – Lamb
If I should die this very moment
I wouldn’t fear
for I’ve never known completeness
like being here
wrapped in the warmth of you
loving every breath of you
still my heart this moment
oh it might burstcould we stay right here
till the end of time until the earth stops turning
wanna love you until the seas run dry
I’ve found the one I’ve waited forall this time I’ve loved you
and never known your face
all this time I’ve missed you
and searched this human race
here is true peace
here my heart knows calm
safe in your soul
bathed in your sighs
wanna stay right here
till the end of time
till the earth stops turning
gonna love you until the seas run dry
I’ve found the one I’ve waited forthe one I’ve waited for
all I’ve known
all I’ve done
all I’ve felt was leading to this
all I’ve known
all I’ve done
all I’ve felt was leading to thiswanna stay right here
till the end of time till the earth stops turning
gonna love you till the seas run dry
I’ve found the one I’ve waited forthe one I’ve waited for
the one I’ve waited forwanna stay right here
till the end of time ’till the earth stops turning
gonna love you till the seas run dry
I’ve found the one I’ve waited forthe one I’ve waited for
the one I’ve waited for:D :D
16 October, 2005 at 7:28 pm #138959Eva Cassidy – You take my breath away
Sometimes it amazes me
How strong the power of love can be
Sometimes you just take my breath awayYou watch my love grow like a child
Sometimes gentle and sometimes wild
Sometimes you just take my breath awayAnd it’s too good to slip by
Too good to lose
Too good to be there
Just to use
I’m gonna stand on a mountain top
And tell the news
That you take my breath awaySometimes it amazes me
How strong the power of love can be
Sometimes you just take my breath awayYour beauty is there in all I see
And when I feel your eyes on me
Oh don’t you know you just take my breath awayAnd it’s too good to slip by
Too good to lose
Too good to be there
Just to use
I’m gonna stand on a mountain top
And tell the news
That you take my breath awayAnd it’s too good to slip by
Too good to lose
Too good to be there
Just to use
I’m gonna stand on a mountain top
And tell the news
That you take my breath away16 October, 2005 at 11:24 pm #138960Half A Dream Away
We’re just half a dream away
Sitting on our fences
Building up defences
Making up rules by which we playWe’re just half way down the road
Staking our positions
But stupid superstitions
Only give fools too heavy a loadThe magpie screeched and my window is shattered
Her body’s bruised but her soul’s not battered
The fireman tried but the hose was frozen
The cupboard’s bare but the door needs closingWe spend half our time away
From being where we want to
And seeing who it’s fun to
Not blaming ourselves for our mistakesWe spend half a dream away
Just looking out of windows
Waiting for a signal
Waiting for night to return to dayThe tree was bare but the birds were singing
The milk turned sour but my thirst needs quenching
The meat was dead and I need me feeding
The room was cold but the night was freezingThe rainbow frowned when the sun was shining
A baby’s snatched on a beautiful morning
A dog runs wild and the brakes are screaming
A church on fire is struck by lightning
The dead man’s hands had beautiful fingers
The princess frowned at her lovers mistress
She went insane and poisoned the children
A teacher’s drowned and a child is laughingWe’re just half a dream away…
17 October, 2005 at 7:44 am #138961Misty mornin’, don’t see no sun;
I know you’re out there somewhere having fun.
There is one mystery – yea-ea-eah – I just can’t express:
To give your more, to receive your less.
One of my good friend said, in a reggae riddim,
“Don’t jump in the water, if you can’t swim.”
The power of philosophy – yea-ea-eah – floats through my head
Light like a feather, heavy as lead;
Light like a feather, heavy as lead, yeah.See no sun! Oh.
Time has come, I want you –
I want you to straighten out my tomorrow! Uh.
I want – I want – I want you – (tomorrow).
Oh, wo-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah!
I want you to straighten out my (tomorrow)!Misty (morning) mornin’, don’t see no sun;
I know you’re out there somewhere having fun.
Mysteries I just can’t express:
How can you ever give your more to receive your less?
Like my good friend said, in a reggae riddim:
“You can’t jump – you can’t jump in the water, if you can’t swim.”I want you (I want you) – I want you to straighten out my today –
My tomorrow – my-my-my – my – my
(I want you to straighten out my tomorrow).
On a misty morning, uh! (I want you to straighten out my tomorrow).
Oh-oh oh-oh-oh-oh!
(I want you to straighten out my tomorrow)
Straighten out my tomorrow – my tomorrow! Need some straightenin’ out!
(I want you to straighten out my tomorrow)
Mist! Mm. (I want) Mist! (you to straighten out my tomorrow)
Misty! Oh! (I want you to straighten out my tomorrow)Bob Marley ~ Misty Morning
