“The Rose”
Some say love, it is a river
that drowns the tender reed.
Some say love, it is a razor
that leaves your soul to bleed.
Some say love, it is a hunger,
an endless aching need.
I say love, it is a flower,
and you its only seed.It’s the heart afraid of breaking
that never learns to dance.
It’s the dream afraid of waking
that never takes the chance.
It’s the one who won’t be taken,
who cannot seem to give,
and the soul afraid of dyin’
that never learns to live.When the night has been too lonely
and the road has been to long,
and you think that love is only
for the lucky and the strong,
just remember in the winter
far beneath the bitter snows
lies the seed that with the sun’s love
in the spring becomes the rose.ditto caff. just makes ye toes curl dunnit. :P

The Saints Are Coming (with Green Day)
U2There is a house in New Orleans
They call the Superdome
It’s been the ruin
Of many a poor boy
And God I know I’m oneI cried to my daddy on the telephone, “how long now?”
“Until the clouds unroll and you come home,” the line went
But the shadows still remain since your descent, your descentI cried to my daddy on the telephone “How long now?”
“Until the clouds unroll and you come home” the line went
But the shadows still remain since your descent, your descent yeah, yeahThe saints are coming
The saints are coming
I say no matter how I try
I realize there’s no replyThe saints are coming
The saints are coming
I say no matter how I try
I realize there’s no replyLiving like birds in magnolia trees
A child on a rooftop
A mother on her knees
Her sign reads
Please, I am an AmericanDrowning sorrow floods the deepest grief, how long now
Until a weather change condemns belief, how long now
When the night watchman lets in the thief, what’s wrong nowThe saints are coming
The saints are coming
I say no matter how I try
I realize there’s no replyThe saints are coming
The saints are coming
I say no matter how I try
I realize there’s no reply
I say no matter how I try
I realize there’s no reply
I say no matter how I try
I realize there’s no replyTheres a lady whos sure
All that glitters is gold
And shes buying a stairway to heaven.
When she gets there she knows
If the stores are all closed
With a word she can get what she came for.
Ooh, ooh, and shes buying a stairway to heaven.Theres a sign on the wall
But she wants to be sure
cause you know sometimes words have two meanings.
In a tree by the brook
Theres a songbird who sings,
Sometimes all of our thoughts are misgiven.
Ooh, it makes me wonder,
Ooh, it makes me wonder.Theres a feeling I get
When I look to the west,
And my spirit is crying for leaving.
In my thoughts I have seen
Rings of smoke through the trees,
And the voices of those who standing looking.
Ooh, it makes me wonder,
Ooh, it really makes me wonder.And its whispered that soon
If we all call the tune
Then the piper will lead us to reason.
And a new day will dawn
For those who stand long
And the forests will echo with laughter.If theres a bustle in your hedgerow
Dont be alarmed now,
Its just a spring clean for the may queen.
Yes, there are two paths you can go by
But in the long run
Theres still time to change the road youre on.
And it makes me wonder.Your head is humming and it wont go
In case you dont know,
The pipers calling you to join him,
Dear lady, can you hear the wind blow,
And did you know
Your stairway lies on the whispering wind.And as we wind on down the road
Our shadows taller than our soul.
There walks a lady we all know
Who shines white light and wants to show
How evrything still turns to gold.
And if you listen very hard
The tune will come to you at last.
When all are one and one is all
To be a rock and not to roll.And shes buying a stairway to heaven.

TAINTED LOVE
Sometimes I feel I’ve got to
Run away I’ve got to
Get away
From the pain that you drive into the heart of me
The love we share
Seems to go nowhere
And I’ve lost my light
For I toss and turn I can’t sleep at night(chorus)
Once I ran to you (I ran)
Now I’ll run from you
This tainted love you’ve given
I give you all a boy could give you
Take my tears and that’s not nearly all
Oh…tainted love
Tainted loveNow I know I’ve got to
Run away I’ve got to
Get away
You don’t really want IT any more from me
To make things right
You need someone to hold you tight
And you’LL think love is to pray
But I’m sorry I don’t pray that way(chorus…)
Don’t touch me please
I cannot stand the way you tease
I love you though you hurt me so
Now I’m going to pack my things and go
Tainted love, tainted love (x2)
Touch me baby, tainted love (x2)
Tainted love (x3)@pats wrote:

You Light Up My Life”
So many nights, I’d sit by my window,
Waiting for someone to sing me his song.
So many dreams, I kept deep inside me,
Alone in the dark, but now you’ve come along.
And you light up my life,
You give me hope, to carry on.
You light up my days
And fill my nights with song.
Rollin’ at sea, adrift on the waters
Could it be finally, I’m turning for home
Finally a chance to say, “Hey, I Love You”
Never again to be all alone.
And you light up my life,
You give me hope, to carry on.
You light up my days
And fill my nights with song.
You, You light up my life
You give me hope to carry on

Anniversary Song Lyrics8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8)
Today has been a special day
An anniversary, a request
That you play your piano
As the evening sun slowly setsChorus:- I never thought I’d get this old dear
Never had a reason to live so long
And the Lord’s been like my shadow
Even when I was wrong
No I never thought it would turn out this wayA birthday with apologies
For all the tears and regrets
And I’ve always saved your poetry
For these years when you forgetChorus:- I never thought I’d…
So sing with me softly
As the day turns to night
And later I’ll dream of paradise with you
I love you and good nighthappy 2nd smiff.
One Day You Will Lyrics of Deborah Cox
You don’t miss me now
You don’t miss me now
One day you will
Be walking down the street
And you’ll see someone and she will look a lot like me
And you’ll think about someone you left behind
And it will make you cry
One day you will
Be starting out your day
And you’ll look inside you coffee cup and see my face
And you’ll realize the sad mistake you made
And it will be too late
One day you’ll wonder why you ever said good-bye
And you will wish you were still right here by my side
But I won’t be around
You don’t miss me now
You don’t miss me now
One day you will
Never find a love like what we had
Never find someone like me again
Through the tears one day you’ll see
That the one you need is me
You’ll want me back again
You’ll want me back again
One day you will
Be driving in your car
And you’re gonna hear a song that’s gonna break your heart
And you’ll wish you’d said those words you didn’t say
It will be too late
One day you’ll wonder why you ever said good-bye
And you will wish you were still right here, right by my side
But baby I won’t be around
You don’t miss me now
You don’t miss me now
One day you will
Be walking down the street
And you’ll see someone and she will look a lot like me
And you’ll think about someone you left behind
And it will make you cry
You don’t miss me now
You don’t miss me now
[Repeat 2 x]
But one day you will
One day you will
Billy Joel – Piano Man
It’s nine o’clock on a Saturday
The Regular crowd shuffles in
There’s an old man sitting next to me
Makin’ love to his tonic and ginHe says, “Son, can you play me a memory
I’m not really sure how it goes
But it’s sad and it’s sweet and I knew it complete
When I wore a younger man’s clothes”La la la, de de da
La la, de de da da dumChorus:
Sing us a song, you’re the piano man
Sing us a song tonight
Well, we’re all in the mood for a melody
And you’ve got us feelin’ alrightNow John at the bar is a friend of mine
He gets me my drinks for free
And he’s quick with a joke or to light up your smoke
But there’s someplace that he’d rather be
He says, “Bill, I believe this is killing me.”
As the smile ran away from his face
“Well I’m sure that I could be a movie star
If I could get out of this place”Oh, la la la, de de da
La la, de de da da dumNow Paul is a real estate novelist
Who never had time for a wife
And he’s talkin’ with Davy, who’s still in the navy
And probably will be for lifeAnd the waitress is practicing politics
As the businessmen slowly get stoned
Yes, they’re sharing a drink they call loneliness
But it’s better than drinkin’ aloneChorus
sing us a song you’re the piano man
sing us a song tonight well we’re all in the mood
for a melody and you got us feeling alrightIt’s a pretty good crowd for a Saturday
And the manager gives me a smile
‘Cause he knows that it’s me they’ve been comin’ to see
To forget about life for a while
And the piano, it sounds like a carnival
And the microphone smells like a beer
And they sit at the bar and put bread in my jar
And say, “Man, what are you doin’ here.”Oh, la la la, de de da
La la, de de da da dumChorus:
sing us a song you’re the piano man
sing us a song tonight
well we’re all in the mood for a melody and you got us
feeling alrightPlease come now I think Im falling
Im holding on to all I think is safe
It seems I found the road to nowhere
And Im trying to escape
I yelled back when I heard thunder
But Im down to one last breath
And with it let me say
Let me sayHold me now
Im six feet from the edge and Im thinking
That maybe six feet
Aint so far downIm looking down now that its over
Reflecting on all of my mistakes
I thought I found the road to somewhere
Somewhere in his grace
I cried out heaven save me
But Im down to one last breath
And with it let me say
Let me sayHold me now
Im six feet from the edge and Im thinking
That maybe six feet
Aint so far downSad eyes follow me
But I still believe theres something left for me
So please come stay with me
cause I still believe theres something left for you and me
For you and me
For you and meHold me now
Im six feet from the edge and Im thinkingI lie awake on a long, dark night
I cant seem to tame my mind
Slings and arrows are killing me inside
Maybe I cant accept the life thats mine
No I cant accept the life thats mineSimple living is my desperate cry
Been trading love with indifference
Yeah it suits me just fine
I try to hold on but Im calloused to the bone
Maybe thats why I feel alone
Maybe thats why I feel so aloneMe Im rusted and weathered
Barely holding together
Im covered with skin that peels and
It just wont healThe sun shines and I cant avoid the light
I think Im holding on to life too tight
Ashes to ashes and dust to dust
Sometimes I feel like giving up
Sometimes I feel like giving upMe Im rusted and weathered
Barely holding together
Im covered with skin that peels
And it just wont healThe day reminds me of you
The night hides your truth
The earth is a voice
Speaking to you
Take all this pride
And leave it behind
Because one day it ends
One day we die
Believe what you will
That is your right
But I choose to win
So I choose to fight
To fight
