"Love, love, love comes in waves
I want you to love me as much as I love you/
And you do, then you don't, then you do, then you don't, then you do
Love is a battlefield, love is a car with a cracked windowshield/
Love is the rain in Glasgow, love is a lie/
Love is for TV and movie stars, love is for songs played on slow guitars/
Love is for boy racers and their cars, love is a lie, I'm a liar/
Love is a lie, you're a liar/
Love is a 'Why did you lie to me?'
I don't know how I'll get over you/
I got my bad tricks but I don't think think they'll work/
It seems that I've changed and I can't hide/
There's nowhere to hide/
I'm never going to give you up/
I'm just going to keep lifting you up/
Higher than the sky, going up and up/
Faster than why 'Would you give up on me?/'
Faster than how would you give up on me?/
Faster than why did you give up on me?/
Love, love, love comes in waves/
I want you to love me as much as I love you/
But you don't
(Love Comes In Waves, Malcolm Middleton)
It's from his Sleight of Heart album which in itself is a gorgeous album, but this song is particularly brilliant.

I'd like to watch I'd like to read I'd like a part I'd like the lead But, I've got nothing to say I've got nothing to say I've got nothing to say I've got nothing to say I've got nothing to give Got no reason to live But I'll kill to survive I've got nothing to hide Wish I wasn't so shy -The Strokes, Ask Me Anything these aren't my favorite lines. yes, it's all true, but the fact that 'i got nothign to say' doesn't make me happy ;D if i ever sang it, it would be in a depressing tone. well, they sing it in a funny way  |

I´m broke but I´m happy
I´m poor but I´m kind
I´m short but I´m healthy, yeah
I´m high but I´m grounded
I´m sane but I´m overwhelmed
I´m lost but I´m hopeful baby
What it all comes down to
Is that everything´s gonna be fine fine fine
I´ve got one hand in my pocket
And the other one is giving a high five
I feel drunk but I´m sober
I´m young and I´m underpaid
I´m tired but I´m working, yeah
I care but I´m restless
I´m here but I´m really gone
I´m wrong and I´m sorry baby
what it all comes down to
Is that everything´s gonna be quite alright
I´ve got one hand in my pocket
And the other one is flicking a cigarette
What it all comes down to
Is that I haven´t got it all figured out just yet
I´ve got one hand in my pocket
And the other is giving the peace sign
I´m free but I´m focused
I´m green but I´m wise
I´m hard but I´m friendly baby
I´m sad but I´m laughin
I´m brave but I´m chicken shit
I´m sick but I´m pretty baby
What it all boils down to
Is that no one´s really got it figured out just yet
I´ve got one hand in my pocket
And the other is playing the piano
What it all comes down to my friends
Is that everything is just fine fine fine
I´ve got one hand in my pocket
And the other one is hailing a taxi cab . . .
i feel i relate to this song in alot of parts

The Allies - Grand Facade
Where do we go from here
When we've said hello, I'm fine and you?
Shouldn't we make it clear
It's alright to shed a tear or two
If I showed my weakness would you laugh at me
If I ran away would you come after me
CHORUS
We hide our hearts, we play charades
Here behind the grand facade
No fear eludes, no pain can escape
From the loving eyes of God
If you could read my mind
Would you comfort me with an old cliche
This is my best disguise
It serves me well, it keeps me sage
But I feel the loneliness my comfort brings
When one word of love could give my spirit wings
CHORUS
From out of the dark, come into the light
CHORUS
From out of the dark, come into the light

"We're just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl, year after year,
Running over the same old ground.
What have you found? The same old fears.
Wish you were here."
"Wish You Were Here" - Pink Floyd

"Passenger Seat" - Death Cab for Cutie
I roll the window down
And then begin to breathe in
The darkest country road
And the strong scent of evergreen
From the passenger seat as you are driving me home.
Then looking upwards
I strain my eyes and try
To tell the difference between shooting stars and satellites
From the passenger seat as you are driving me home.
"Do they collide?"
I ask and you smile.
With my feet on the dash
The world doesn't matter.
When you feel embarrassed then I'll be your pride
When you need directions then I'll be the guide
For all time.
For all time.
This is an amazingly beautiful song, imo...love it, love it, love it. I think one needs to listen to it to get the whole effect, though.

"Tender Sugar" - Akira Yamaoka, sung by Mary Elizabeth McGlynn
I run I fall what ripped away
check my body now
was it body or soul
the darkness fades fades to the light
disappearing now
disappears from the night
And all these nightmares I once had
as a child
the morning always came
it came too late
what did my mind forget
forget to hide
could be the nightmare be still awake
I don't know
In or out up or down
never know its an illusion
round and round on and on
every day spins my confusion
Not again, not again, not again
from this dream I can't awake
what is real, what is real, what is real
it's getting hard for me to take

"Talk" - Coldplay
Oh brother I can't, I can't get through
I've been trying hard to reach you
Cos I don't know what to do
Oh brother I can't believe it's true
I'm so scared about the future and
I want to talk to you
Oh I want to talk to you
You can take a picture of something you see
In the future where will I be?
You can climb a ladder up to the sun
Or write a song nobody has sung, or do
Something that's never been done
Are you lost or incomplete?
Do you feel like a puzzle?
You can't find your missing piece
Tell me how do you feel?
Well I feel like they're talking in a language I don't speak
And they're talking it to me
So you take a picture of something you see
In the future where will I be?
You can climb a ladder up to the sun
Or write a song nobody has sung, or do
Something that's never been done, or do
Something that's never been done
So you don't know where you're going
But you want to talk
And you feel like you're going where you've been before
You'll tell anyone who will listen but you feel ignored
Nothing's really making any sense at all
Let's talk
Let's talk
Let's talk
Let's talk

yeah I like the Wish You Were Here song lyrics also, Strawberry.
Once in a life
We lived in a sanctuary
A song could get us free
Slept behind the altar
Only the singer saw
Now is it gone, years on
Times we took alone
Stealing an hour, buying a night
It's hard on the telephone
Love outside the law
Je Tant Reveille De Toi
oh oh
Je Tant Reveille De Toi
Is it gone this year
Is the song still in your ear
Or were we only high
Just the wine
Just the wine
Or was it only the time
Now we're old
How will the story be told
Windswept small used by time
waiting for the bus
will that be us
Do you recall my friend
We never thought we'd ever fall
When the salesmen came to call
Selling our soul to buy
Sometimes it ain't no deal at all
Je Tant Reveille De Toi
Je Tant Reveille De Toi
Je Tant Reveille De Toi....
"Just the Wine" - Heart (Magazine - 1978 album)

So, I'm not much into Sheryl Crow, and I've probably heard this song hundreds of times on the radio before, but today I heard this song and realized that I don't think I've ever really paid close attention to the lyrics. Pretty good song. "Everyday is a Winding Road" - Sheryl CrowI hitched a ride with a vending machine repair man
He says hes been down this road more than twice
He was high on intellectualism
Ive never been there but the brochure looks nice
Jump in, lets go
Lay back, enjoy the show
Everybody gets high, everybody gets low,
These are the days when anything goes
[chorus]
Everyday is a winding road
I get a little bit closer
Everyday is a faded sign
I get a little bit closer to feeling fine
Hes got a daughter he calls easter
She was born on a tuesday night
Im just wondering why I feel so all alone
Why Im a stranger in my own life
Jump in, lets go
Lay back, enjoy the show
Everybody gets high, everybody gets low
These are the days when anything goes
Chorus
Ive been living in a sea of anarchy
Ive been living on coffee and nicotine
Ive been wondering if all the thing Ive seen
Were ever real, were ever really happening
Chorus |
