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-it’s only seedIt’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 dying
That never learns to liveWhen the night has been too lonely
And the road has been too long
And you think that love is only
For the lucky and the strong
Just remember
In the winter
Far beneath the bitter snow
Lies the seed
That with the sun’s love
In the spring
Becomes the rose12 March, 2008 at 10:17 pm #139533Across The Universe” http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bbirjVeI_Pk
[Written by John Lennon & Paul McCartney]
[Originally performed by The Beatles in the album “Let It Be”]Words are flowing out like endless rain into a paper cup,
They slither while they pass they slip away across the universe
Pools of sorrow, waves of joy are drifting through my opened mind,
Possessing and caressing me
Jai guru de va om
Nothing’s gonna change my world
Nothing’s gonna change my world
Nothing’s gonna change my world
Nothing’s gonna change my world
Images of broken light which dance before me like a million eyes,
They call me on and on across the universe,
Thoughts meander like a restless wind inside a letter box they
Tumble blindly as they make their way
Across the universe
Jai guru deva om
Nothing’s gonna change my world
Nothing’s gonna change my world
Nothing’s gonna change my world
Nothing’s gonna change my worldSounds of laughter, shades of earth are ringing
Through my open ears inciting and inviting me
Limitless undying love which shines around me like a
million suns and calls me on and on
Across the universe
Jai guru deva om
Nothing’s gonna change my world
Nothing’s gonna change my world
Nothing’s gonna change my world
Nothing’s gonna change my worldJai guru deva [Repeat to fade]
14 March, 2008 at 8:34 pm #139534Lyrics: Gilbert O’Sullivan – NOTHING RHYMED lyrics
Album: UnknownIf I give up the seat I’ve been saving
To some elderly lady or man
Am I being a good boy
Am I your pride and joy
Mother please if your pleased say I am
And if while in the course of my duty
I perform an unfortunate take
Would you punish me so, unbelievably so
Never again will I make that mistake
This feeling inside me could never deny me
The right to be wrong if I choose
And this pleasure I get
From say winning a bet
Is to lose
When I’m drinking my Bonaparte Shandy
Eating more than enough apple pies
Will I glance at my screen and see real human beings
Starve to death –
Right in front of my eyes
Nothing old, nothing new, nothing ventured
Nothing gained, nothing still-born or lost
Nothing further than proof nothing wilder than youth
Nothing older than time nothing sweeter than wine
Nothing physically, recklessly, hopelessly blind
Nothing I couldn’t say
Nothing why ‘cos today
Nothing rhymed14 March, 2008 at 8:49 pm #139535i remember him before the perm, me mam + dad would play that album all the time

Authors and actors and artists and such
Never know nothing, and never know much.
Sculptors and singers and those of their kidney
Tell their affairs from Seattle to Sydney.
Playwrights and poets and such horses’ necks
Start off from anywhere, end up at sex.
Diarists, critics, and similar roe
Never say nothing, and never say no.
People Who Do Things exceed my endurance;
God, for a man that solicits insurance!the decadence and the love that knows Esmeralda !
22 March, 2008 at 1:32 am #139538You Paint your picture quickly
not guided by the hour
instinctively believe it
while i work at it for hoursyou hope that it comes quickly
and you hope that it will dazzle
your mind is not on reaching
the games the road you traveli’m silent like a shadow
my lovelight tenders embers
the blank pages lying fallow
are for love songs for tomorrowwe travel all so closley
revolution choice of wepon
all looking for the future
while we moan below our curfewso i’ll take you to the country
with a picnic full of treasures
disguised and blinded slightly
playing games for pleasures onlywhere we’ll paint our picture slowly
not guided by the hour
and leave the gates wide open
for all the other lovers22 March, 2008 at 10:18 am #139539Mr Brightside the Killers
Coming out of my cage
And I’ve been doing just fine
Gotta gotta be down
Because I want it all
It started out with a kiss
How did it end up like this?
It was only a kiss
It was only a kissNow I’m falling asleep
And she’s calling a cab
While he’s having a smoke
And she’s taking a drag
Now they’re going to bed
And my stomach is sick
And it’s all in my head
But she’s touching his chest now
He takes off her dress now
Let me go
I just can’t look
It’s killing me
And taking controlJealousy
Turning saints into the sea
Swimming through sick lullabies
Choking on your alibis
But it’s just the price I pay
Destiny is calling me
Open up my eager eyes
Cause I’m Mr. BrightsideComing out of my cage
And I’ve been doing just fine
Gotta gotta be down
Because I want it all
It started out with a kiss
How did it end up like this?
It was only a kiss
It was only a kissNow I’m falling asleep
And she’s calling a cab
While he’s having a smoke
And she’s taking a drag
Now they’re going to bed
And my stomach is sick
And it’s all in my head
But she’s touching his chest now
He takes off her dress now
Let me go
I just can’t look
It’s killing me
And taking controlJealousy
Turning saints into the sea
Swimming through sick lullabies
Choking on your alibis
But it’s just the price I pay
Destiny is calling me
Open up my eager eyes
Cause I’m Mr. BrightsideI never, I never
I never, I never22 March, 2008 at 10:28 am #139540I see a change is coming to our lives
Its not the same as it used to be
And its not too late to realise our mistake
Were just not right for each otherLove has slipped away left us only friends
We almost seem like strangers
All thats left between us are the memories we shared
Of times we thought we cared for each otherTheres nothing left to do but go our separate ways
And pick up all the pieces left behind us
And maybe someday, somewhere along the way
Another love will find usSome day when shes older, maybe she will understand
Why her mom and dad are not together
The tears that she will cry when I have to say goodbye
Will tear at my heart foreverTheres nothing left to do but go our separate ways
And pick up all the pieces left behind us
And maybe someday, somewhere along the way
Another love will find usElvis

I’m writing this to say
In a gentle way
Thank You – but no
I will live my life as I
Will undoubtedly die – aloneI’m writing this to say
In a gentle way
Thank You …
I will live my life as I … oh
For whether you stay
Or stray
An inbuilt guilt catches up with youAnd as it comes around to your place
At 5 A.M.; wakes you up
And it laughs in your face -
