QUOTE (Lost In Xanadu @ Aug 6 2010, 02:39 PM)
The secretaries pout and preen like
cheap tarts in a red light street
But all he ever thinks to do is watch
And every single meeting with his so-called superior
Is a humiliating kick in the crotch

Superb song new_thumbsupsmileyanim.gif

When private rainclouds form

And tears seem the likely solution

Try to shelter from the storm

Who knows what tomorrow might bring

 

Now the sun breaks through the dark

And life isn't quite as confusing

Release your cloud of woe

And follow it's course with your eyes

 

Higher higher into the blue sky

Higher higher than the tallest of mountains

Higher higher into the sunlight

Higher higher till it vanishes from view

 

And I will watch as it goes

And I will follow the cloud till it is gone

 

Though the past has let you down

Don't be too hard on the future

You can make it through the day

Who knows what tomorrow might bring

 

Higher higher into the blue sky

Higher higher than the tallest of mountains

Deeper deeper into the distance

It's not too late for you - oh yeah

Higher higher into the sunlight

Higher higher till it vanishes from view

 

And I will watch as it goes

And I will watch as the cold wind blows

And I will watch as it goes

And I will follow the cloud till it is gone

 

When private rainclouds form

And tears seem the likely solution

Try to shelter from the storm

Who knows what tomorrow might bring to you

Dream what tomorrow might give to you

Believe what tomorrow might bring

Are you in

Or are you out

Words are stones

In my mouth

Hush little baby

Don't you cry

Truth comes down

Strikes me in the eye

Turning seasons within

Brand new nails across my skin

Who am I to imply?

That I was found and I found you in the white

To overcome this I become one with

Quiet colder late november

If you dont see I remain unseen

Till it's time to be rememebered

So I had a green light

I was lost in city lights

Not so far from a try

This is not our last good bye

Don't you cry...

So i found you

found the way all through

the quiet cold of inner darkness

now that you're here

it becomes so clear

i have waited for you always

Spiderman, Spiderman,

Does whatever a spider can

Spins a web, any size,

Catches thieves just like flies

Look Out!

Here comes the Spiderman.

 

Is he strong?

Listen bud,

He's got radioactive blood.

Can he swing from a thread

Take a look overhead

Hey, there

There goes the Spiderman.

 

In the chill of night

At the scene of a crime

Like a streak of light

He arrives just in time.

 

Spiderman, Spiderman

Friendly neighborhood Spiderman

Wealth and fame

He's ingnored

Action is his reward.

 

To him, life is a great big bang up

Whenever there's a hang up

You'll find the Spider Maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan.

 

 

 

 

Yeah? What? You wanna make something of it? huh.gif

Nice song, Your_Lion.

 

Here's my contribution to this thread that's catching on...

 

WITHIN TEMPTATION: MEMORIES

In this world you tried,

Not leaving me alone behind.

There's no other way,

I pray to the gods let him stay.

The memories ease the pain inside,

And now I know why.

 

All of my memories keep you near.

In silent moments,

Imagining you here.

All of my memories keep you near,

In silent whispers, silent tears

 

Made me promise I'd try,

To find my way back in this life.

Hope there is a way,

To give me a sign you're okay.

Reminds me again it's worth it all,

So I can go home.

 

All of my memories keep you near.

In silent moments,

Imagining you here.

All of my memories keep you near.

In silent whispers, silent tears.

 

Together in all these memories,

I see your smile.

All of the memories I hold dear.

Darling you know I'll love you,

Til the end of time.

 

All of my memories keep you near

In silent moments,

Imagining you here.

All of my memories keep you near,

In silent whispers, silent tears.

 

All of my memories...

 

 

I think I'll sing this on a day I will never talk about before it happens...sad.gif

But, until then, I will be positive. biggrin.gif

Looking out at the road rushing under my wheels

Looking back at the years gone by like so many summer fields

In '65 I was seventeen and running up 101

I don't know where I'm running now, I'm just running on

 

Running on - running on empty

Running on - running blind

Running on - running into the sun

But I'm running behind

 

Gotta do what you can just to keep your love alive

Trying not to confuse it with what you do to survive

In '69 I was twenty-one and I called the road my own

I don't know when that road turned onto the road I'm on

 

Running on - running on empty

Running on - running blind

Running on - running into the sun

But I'm running behind

 

Everyone I know, everywhere I go

People need some reason to believe

I don't know about anyone but me

If it takes all night, that'll be all right

If I can get you to smile before I leave

 

Looking out at the road rushing under my wheels

I don't know how to tell you all just how crazy this life feels

I look around for the friends that I used to turn to to pull me through

Looking into their eyes I see them running too

 

Running on - running on empty

Running on - running blind

Running on - running into the sun

But I'm running behind

 

Honey you really tempt me

You know the way you look so kind

I'd love to stick around but I'm running behind

You know I don't even know what I'm hoping to find

Running into the sun but I'm running behind

Is it really true what they're saying

Are you really sure there's nobody come for me

When I'm walking home there is no-one

Once there was a house, full of laughter - so warm

Trying to pretend there is someone

Someone who will care when I need it

 

I will now receive my comfort, conjured by the magic power of wine

Just a drink, I'll get that drink, and I'm feeling good

Just a drink, I'll get that drink, and I'm feeling fine

Just a drink to take my sorrow

Just a drink and you can blast tomorrow

Just a drink to make me feel like a man again

Now I'm down

 

When I walk outside, there is nowhere

Children follow me, with their laughter - so cold...

Casting just a glance at the churchyard

Casting just a glance, at my painted female friend.

 

Now I'm on my way, I am falling

Got to find some 'elp, ooh I will need that now

 

So I will receive my comfort, conjured by the magic power of wine

Just a drink, I'll get that drink, and I'm feeling good

Just a drink, I'll get that drink, and I'm feeling fine

Just a drink to take my sorrow

Just a drink and you can blast tomorrow

Just a drink to make me feel like a man again

Now I'm down...

 

I will now receive my comfort, conjured by the magic power of wine

Just a drink, I'll get that drink, and I'm feeling good

Just a drink, I'll get that drink, and I'm feeling fine

Just a drink to take my sorrow

Just a drink and you can blast tomorrow, now...

Childhood living is easy to do

The things you wanted I bought them for you

Graceless lady, you know who I am,

You know I can't let you slide through my hands

 

Wild Horses,

Couldn't drag me away,

Wild, wild horses,

Couldn't drag me away...

 

I watched you suffer a dull, aching pain

Now you decided to show me the same

No sweeping exits or offstage lines,

Can make me feel bitter or treat you unkind

 

Wild Horses,

Couldn't drag me away,Wild, wild horses,

Couldn't drag me away...

 

I know I dreamed you a sin and a lie,

I have my freedom but I don't have much time

Faith has been broken tears must be cried,

Let's do some living after we die

 

Wild Horses,

Couldn't drag me away,

Wild, wild horses,

We'll ride them someday

 

Wild Horses,

Couldn't drag me away,

Wild, wild horses,

We'll ride them someday

It was the heat of the moment,

Telling me what your heart meant.

The heat of the moment,

Shown in your eyes.

Light switch, yellow fever, crawling up your bathroom wall

Singing psychedelic praises to the depths of a china bowl

You've got venom in your stomach, you've got poison in your head

You should have listened to the priest at the confession

When he offered you the sacred bread

 

He knows, you know, he knows, you know

H e knows, you know, but he's got problems

 

Fast feed, crystal fever, swarming through a fractured mind

Chilling needles freeze emotion, the blind shall lead the blind

You've got venom in you stomach, you've got poison in your head

When your conscience whispered, the vein lines stiffened

You were walking with the dead

 

He knows, you know, he knows, you know, he knows, you know

He's got experience, he's got experience, he knows, you know

But he's got problems, problems, problems

 

He knows... slash wrist, scarlet fever, crawled under your bathroom door

Pumping arteries ooze their problems through the gap that the razor tore

You've got venom in your stomach, you've got poison in your head

You should have listened to your analyst's questions

When you lay on his leather bed

 

He knows, you know, he knows, you know

H he knows, you know, but he's got problems

 

Blank eyes, purple fever, streaming through the frosted pane

You learned your lesson far to late from the links in a chemist chain

You've got venom in your stomach, you've got poison in your head

You should have stayed at home and talked with father

Listen to the lies he fed

 

He knows, you know, he knows, you know,

He knows, you know, but he's got problems

He knows, you know, he knows, you know, he knows, you know

He's got experience, he's got experience, he knows, you know

You know, you know, you know

I turn my back to the wind

To catch my breath,

Before I start off again.

Driven on,

Without a moment to spend

To pass an evening

With a drink and a friend

 

I let my skin get too thin

I'd like to pause,

No matter what I pretend

Like some pilgrim-

Who learns to transcend-

Learns to live

As if each step was the end

 

Time stand still-

I'm not looking back

But I want to look around me now

See more of the people

And the places that surround me now

 

Freeze this moment a little bit longer

Make each sensation a little bit stronger

Experience slips away...

 

I turn my face to the sun

Close my eyes.

Let my defences down-

All those wounds

That I can't get unwound

 

I let my past go too fast

No time to pause-

If I could slow it all down

Like some captain,

Whose ship runs aground-

I can wait until the tide comes around

 

Make each impression a little bit stronger

Freeze this motion a little bit longer

The innocence slips away...

 

Summer's going fast,

Nights growing colder

Children growing up-

Old friends growing older

Experience slips away...

"Coil"

 

She told me why

She told me lies

Always take care of this

 

I told her how

I've always stayed

Always waiting

For nothing

 

When I get out of here

When I leave you behind

I'll find that the years passed us by

 

And I can, see you

Running through the fields of sorrow

Yes I can, see you

Running through the fields of sorrow

 

When you get out of here

When you leave me behind

You'll find that the years passed us by

 

When you get out of here

When you leave me behind

You'll find that those years passed us by

 

And I can, see you

Running through the fields of sorrow

Yes I can, see you

Running through the fields of sorrow

"Soul Thing"

TAYLOR HICKS

 

I've been traveling all these years,

Just barely getting by.

The road can be your friend

Or the devil in disguise.

 

When the tough get going,

The muses visit me.

Yet in soft, low tones,

They always say to me,

Say to me,

 

"It ain't no groove thing,

It ain't no country twang,

It's a simple refrain;

It's a soul thang." [2x]

 

Where the city street meets the county road,

Where the sun is nice and warm,

No matter how long I may roam,

This song still takes us home,

Takes us home.

 

Now we'll tell you about these times,

When the blues come out to play,

And jazz leaves her number...

It's funny, she always says:

 

"It ain't no groove thing,

It ain't no country twang,

It's a simple refrain;

It's a soul thang." [2x]

 

Now I'll tell you about these times,

When the blues come out to play,

And jazz leaves her number...

It's funny, she always says:

 

"Well, the city lights fly by me,

As their eyes are getting heavy.

We're sending our love over telephone wire.

These days getting lonelier by the mile...by the mile."

 

It ain't no groove thing,

It ain't no country twang,

It's a simple refrain;

It's a soul thang.

 

It ain't no groove thing,

Yeah, ain't no country twang,

It's a simple refrain;

Its a soul thang!

You walked into the party like you were walking onto a yacht

Your hat strategically dipped below one eye

Your scarf it was apricot

You had one eye in the mirror as you watched yourself gavotte

And all the girls dreamed that they'd be your partner

They'd be your partner, and...

 

You're so vain, you probably thought that song was about you

You're so vain, I'll bet you thought that song was about you

Didn't you? Didn't You?

 

You had me several years ago when I was still quite naive

Well you said that we made such a pretty pair

And that you would never leave

But you gave away the things you loved and one of them was me

I had some dreams, they were clouds in my coffee

Clouds in my coffee, and...

 

You're so vain, you probably thought that song was about you

You're so vain, I'll bet you thought that song was about you

Didn't you? Didn't You?

 

I had some dreams they were clouds in my coffee

Clouds in my coffee, and...

 

You're so vain, you probably thought that song was about you

You're so vain, I'll bet you thought that song was about you

Didn't you? Didn't You?

 

Well I hear you went up to Saratoga and your horse naturally won

Then you flew your lear jet up to Nova Scotia

To see the total eclipse of the sun

Well you're where you should be all the time

And when you're not you're with

Some underworld spy or the wife of a close friend

Wife of a close friend, and...

 

You're so vain, you probably thought that song was about you

You're so vain, I'll bet you thought that song was about you

Didn't you? Didn't You?

 

You're so vain, you probably think this song is about you

You're so vain, you probably think this song is about you

Well the sun is up and rising

The wagon's headed west

Now I can't shake that old suspicion

That I settled for second best

I've been frugal at my table

I've been conscious, I've been blind

Who ever said that 40 acres and a mule

Would ever keep me satisfied?

 

They say the whale that swallowed Jonah

Out in the deep blue

Sometimes I get that feeling

That same ol' whale swallowed me

 

They say the whale that swallowed Jonah

To put me through the test

Sometimes I get that feeling

That I'm different from the rest

 

Now the sons of tomorrow

Will come to me in time

Life is going by so fast now, baby

I haven't had a chance to change my mind

I feel it in my fingers,

I can feel it in my bones,

Maybe it's the whale's way of telling me

It's time to get yourself back home

 

They say the whale that swallowed Jonah

Out in the deep blue

Sometimes I get that feeling

That ol' whale swallowed me

 

They say the whale that swallowed Jonah

To put me through the test

Sometimes I get that feeling

That I'm different from the rest
