Am I Wrong
By Love Spit Love
There's too much
That i keep to myself
And i turn my back on my faith
It's like glass
When we break
I wish no one in my place
And i've seen
You don't need their seeds
When their dirt goes in deep
And i'm lost in sleep
I can't stay
In this place
I can't stand
When the room turns round
On my fate
You give no guarantees
There's no promise
I can keep
I can't stand
I can't see my way
I feel blind
On my feet
I can't stay too long
Am i wrong?
Goodbye, lay the blame on luck
Goodbye, lay the blame on luck
Goodbye, lay the blame on luck
Goodbye, lay the blame on luck
Goodbye, lay the blame on luck
Goodbye, lay the blame on luck
I'm so tired
Of my mood
And sleep comes
With a knife, fork and a spoon
You're so pale
In your face
You let life
Get in your way
And i've seen
You don't need their seeds
When their dirt goes in deep
And i'm lost in sleep
Am i wrong?
Goodbye, lay the blame on luck
Goodbye, lay the blame on luck
Goodbye, lay the blame on luck
Goodbye, lay the blame on luck This one goes out to Lou! Wherever You Will Go
By The Calling
So lately, you're wondering when we'll be there to take my place
When I'm gone, you'll need love
To light the shadows on your face
If the rain will wish I'd fall
I'd fall upon a star
And between the sand and stone
Could you make it on your own
Chorus:
If I could, then I would
I'll go wherever you will go
Way up high or down low
I'll go wherever you will go
And maybe, I'll find out
The way to make it back someday
To watch you, to guide you
Through the darkest of your days
If the rain will wish I'd fall
I'd fall upon a star
Well I hope there's someone out there
Who can bring me back to you
Runaway with my heart
Runaway with my hope
Runaway with my love
I know now, just quite how
My life and love might still go on
In your heart and your mind
I'll stay with you for all of time
If I could turn back time
I'll go wherever you will go
If I could make you mine
I'll go wherever you will go
Crush
By Dave Matthews Band
Crazy, how it feels tonight.
Crazy, how you make it all alright, loves.
Crush Me,
With those things you do
And I'll do for you
Anything, too, oh...
Sitting, smoking, feeling high...
And in this moment
Oh, it feels so right...
Lovely lady, I'm at your feet,
Oh, God I want you so badly.
And I wonder this
Could tomorrow be so wonderous
As you lay sleeping.
Let's go drive 'til morning comes,
Watch the sunrise and fill our souls up,
And drink some wine till we get drunk.
Yes...
Crazy, I'm thinking,
Just knowing that the world is round
And here I'm dancing on the ground
Am I right side up or upside down?
And is this real, or am I dreaming?
Lovely lady, let me drink you, please.
Won't spill a drop, no, I promise you
Lying under a spell you cast on me
Each moment the more I love you.
Crush me, come on
Oh, yes...
Crazy, I'm thinking
Just knowing that the world is round
And here I'm dancing on the ground
Am I right side up or upside down?
Is this real at all, or am I dreaming?
Lovely lady, I will treat you sweetly
Adore you, I mean...
You Crush me,
And it's times like these
When I think I really know
How I love you.
Come on, come on, baby...
Crazy, I'm thinking
Just as long as you're around
And here I'll be dancing on the ground
Am I right side up or upside down?
To each other we'll be facing
My love, my love,
We'll beat back the pain we've found
You know I mean to tell you
All the things I've been thinking
Deep inside, my friend.
Each moment the more I love you.
Crush me, come on, baby...
So much you have given, oh
That I would give you back, again and again.
Oh, the love, many now hold you,
But please, please, just let me, always Finding Me
By Vertical Horizon
I don't think you notice
When you see my face
I guess you're waiting
To spin me around again
Wheels I guess are turning
Somewhere inside my head
I know that this is
Deeper than you get
But you're coming back again
You don't mean to waste my time
But you're coming back so
Chorus:
Don't tell me
How to be
'Cause I like some suffering
Don't ask me
What I need
I'm just fine
Here finding me...
Me...
I've already given
Up on getting through
I never question
Who I'm talking to
Oh, so much for nothing
But nothing means so much
I know it's touching
But I've been out of touch
And it's all that I can do
I'm a sight for my sore eyes
But it's all I am so
Chorus
I don't think you notice
When I can't reach out
I guess you're waiting
On somebody else again
Oh, so much for talking
It's all been said before
I'm hearing something
but I wish you'd just say more
But you're going off again
When I try to just hold on
But you're going off, so
Chorus
Finding me...
Me... WITH OR WITHOUT YOU by U2
See the stone set in your eyes
See the thorn twist in your side
I wait for you
Sleight of hand and twist of fate
On a bed of nails she makes me wait
And I wait....without you
With or without you
With or without you
Through the storm we reach the shore
You give it all but I want more
And I'm waiting for you
With or without you
With or without you
I can't live
With or without you
And you give yourself away
And you give yourself away
And you give
And you give
And you give yourself away
My hands are tied
My body bruised, she's got me with
Nothing left to win
And nothing else to lose
With or without you
With or without you
I can't live
With or without you

by Dave Matthews Band
Come and see
I swear by now I'm playing time
I against my troubles
I'm coming slow but speeding
Do you wish a dance and while I'm
in the front
the play on time is won
but the difficulty is coming here
I will go in this way
And find my own way out
I wont tell you to stay
But I'm coming to much more
Me
All at once the ghosts come back
Reeling in you now
What if they came down crushing
Remember when I used to play for
all of the loneliness that nobody
notice now
I'm begging slow I'm coming here
Only waiting I wanted to stay
I wanted to play
I wanted to love you
I'm only this far
And only tomorrow leads my way
I'm coming waltzing back and moving into your head
Please, I wouldnt pass this by
I would take any more than
What sort of man goes by
I will bring water
Why wont you ever be glad
It melts into wonder
I came in praying for you
why wont you run
in the rain and play
let the tears splash all over you BRICK by Ben Folds Five
6am, day after Christmas
I throw some clothes on in the dark
The smell of cold
Car seat is freezing
The world is sleeping
And I am numb
Up the stairs to her apartment
She is balled up on the couch
Her mom and dad went down to Charlotte
They're not home to find us out
And we drive
Now that I have found someone
I'm feeling more alone
Than I ever have before
She's a brick and I'm drowning slowly
Off the coast and I'm headed nowhere
She's a brick and I'm drowning slowly
They call her name at 7:30
I pace around the parking lot
Then I walk down to buy her flowers
And sell some gifts that I got
Can't you see
It's not me you're dying for
Now she's feeling more alone
Than she ever has before
She's a brick and I'm drowning slowly
Off the coast and I'm heading nowhere
She's a brick and I'm drowning slowly
As weeks went by
It showed that she was not fine
They told me "Son, it's time
To tell the truth"
And she broke down
And I broke down
'Cause I was tired of lying
Driving back to her apartment
For the moment we're alone
She's alone
I'm alone
Now I know it
She's a brick and I'm drowning slowly
Off the coast and I'm heading nowhere
She's a brick and I'm drowning slowly In Your Eyes - Peter Gabriel
Love I get so lost, sometimes
days pass and this emptiness fills my heart
when I want to run away
I drive off in my car
but whichever way I go
I come back to the place you are
All my instincts, they return
and the grand facade, so soon will burn
without a noise, without my pride
I reach out from the inside
In your eyes
the light the heat
in your eyes
I am complete
in your eyes
I see the doorway to a thousand churches
in your eyes
the resolution of all the fruitless searches
in your eyes
I see the light and the heat
in your eyes
oh, I want to be that complete
I want to touch the light
the heat I see in your eyes
Love, I don't like to see so much pain
so much wasted and this moment keeps slipping away
I get so tired of working so hard for out survival
I look to the time with you to keep me awake and alive
And all my instincts, they return
and the grand facade, so soon will burn
without a noise, without my pride
I reach out from the inside
In your eyes
the light the heat
in your eyes
I am complete
in your eyes
I see the doorway to a thousand churches
in your eyes
the resolution of all the fruitless searches
in your eyes
I see the light and the heat
in your eyes
oh, I want to be that complete
I want to touch the light,
the heat I see in your eyes
in your eyes in your eyes
in your eyes in your eyes
in your eyes in your eyes
Sunday Bloody Sunday by U2
I can't believe the news Today,
I can't close my eyes and make it go away
How long, how long must we sing this song?
How long? Tonight we can be as one.
Broken bottles under children's feet,
Bodies strewn accross a dead end street
But I won't heed the battle call It puts my back up, puts my back up
against the wall.
Sunday, bloody Sunday
Sunday, bloody Sunday
And the battle's just begun,
There's many lost,but tell me who has won?
The trenches dug within our hearts
And mother's children, brothers sisters torn apart
Sunday, bloody Sunday
Sunday, bloody Sunday
How long,how long must we sing this song?
How long? Tonight we can be as one.
Tonight,tonight.
Sunday, bloody Sunday
Sunday, bloody Sunday
Wipe the tears from your eyes
Wipe your tears away
Wipe your bloodshot eyes
Sunday, bloody Sunday
Sunday, bloody Sunday
And it's true we are immune
When fact is fiction and T.V. is reality,
And today the millions cry
We eat and drink, while tomorrow they die
The real battle just begun,
To claim the victory Jesus won, On a Sunday, Bloody Sunday
Sunday Bloody Sunday..
Time of your Life by Green Day
Another turning point a fork stuck in the road
Time grabs you by the wrist directs you where to go
So make the best of these days and don't ask why
It's not a question but a lesson learned in time
It's something unpredictable in the end it's right
I hope you have the time of your life.
So take the photographs and stillframes in your mind
Hang it on a shelf; it could've been good times
Tatoos and memories and asking on trial
For what it's worth it was worth all the while
It's something unpredictable in the end it's right
I hope you have the time of your life.
It's something unpredictable in the end it's right
I hope you have the time of your life. I'll Be There
by The Escape Club
If you're depressed about something, do not listen to this song!!! I heard it on the radio about 10 or so years ago, and it's definitely one of my favorites, even though it's so sad. My friend Jennifer can agree...it's very sad! From what I remember, it's a person whose died telling someone that they will always be there for them. Totally depressing.
over Mountains
over Trees
over Oceans
over Seas
across the desert
I'll be there
in a whisper on the wind
on the smile of a new friend
just think of me
And I'll be there
Don't be afraid, oh my love
I'll be watching you from above
And I'd give all the world tonight,
to be with you
Because I'm on your side,
And I still care
I may have died,
but I've gone nowhere
Just think of me,
And I'll be there
On the edge of a waking dream
over Rivers
over Streams
through Wind and Rain
I'll be there
Across the wide and open sky
thousands of miles I'd fly
to be with you
I'll be there
Don't be afraid, oh my love
I'll be watching you from above
And I'd give all the world tonight,
to be with you
Because I'm on your side,
And I still care
I may have died,
but I've gone nowhere
Just think of me,
And I'll be there
In the breath of a wind that sighs
oh, there's no need to cry
Just think of me,
And I'll be there This is just a classic 80's song.
(I Just) Died In Your Arms
By Cutting Crew
Oh I, I just died in your arms tonight
It must have been something you said
I just died in your arms tonight
I keep looking for something I can't get
Broken hearts lie all around me
And I don't see an easy way to get out of this
Her diary it sits on the bedside table
The curtains are closed, the cats in the cradle
Who would've thought that a boy like me could come to this
Oh I, I just died in your arms tonight
It must've been something you said
I just died in your arms tonight
Oh I, I just died in your arms tonight
It must've been some kind of kiss
I should've walked away
Is there any just cause for feeling like this?
On the surface I'm a name on a list
I try to be discreet, but then blow it again
I've lost and found, it's my final mistake
She's loving by proxy, no give and all take
'cos I've been thrilled to fantasy one too many times
Oh I, I just died in your arms...
It was a long hot night
She made it easy, she made it feel right
But now it's over the moment has gone
I followed my hands not my head, I know I was wrong
Oh I, I just died in your arms...
These are two great cover songs. Come on Eileen by Save Ferris and Leaving on a Jet Place by Chantel Kreviauk. The Save Ferris version is faster and has a ska feel to it, and definitely is a great driving song. Leaving on a Jet Plane, while having been covered by a lot of artists, is a great version.
LEAVING ON A JET PLACE
All my bags are packed,
I'm ready to go
I'm standing here outside your door
I hate to wake you up to say goodbye
But the dawn is breakin',
It's early morn
The taxi's waitin',
He's blowin' his horn
Already I'm so lonesome
I could die
(Chorus)
So kiss me and smile for me
Tell me that you'll wait for me
Hold me like you'll never let me go.
I'm leavin' on a jet plane
I Don't know when I'll be back again
Oh, babe, I hate to go.
There's so many times I've let you down
So many times I've played around
I tell you now, they don't mean a thing
Ev'ry place I go, I'll think of you
Ev'ry song I sing, I'll sing for you
When I come back, I'll wear your wedding ring.
(Chorus)
Now the time has come to leave you
One more time
Let me kiss you
Then close your eyes,
I'll be on my way.
Dream about the days to come
When I won't have to leave alone
About the times, I won't have to say,
(Chorus)
COME ON EILEEN
Poor old Johnny Ray
Sounded sad upon the radio
He moved a million hearts in mono
Our mothers cried and sang along and who'd blame them
Now you're grown, so grown, now I must say more than ever
Go toora loora toora loo rye aye
And we can sing jsut like our fathers
Come on Eileen, well I swear (what he means)
At this moment, you mean everything
With you in that dress my thoughts I confess
Verge on dirty
Ah come on Eileen
These people round here wear beaten down eyes
Sunk in smoke dried faces
They're so resigned to what their fate is
But not us, no not us
We are far too young and clever
Eileen I'll sing this tune forever
Come on Eileen well I swear (what he means)
Ah come on, let's take off everything
That pretty red dress Eileen (tell him yes)
Ah come on Eileen
