My all time favorite song  http://yme.ca.music.yahoo.com/ymeNav/ymu/song/26490469 (for yahoo music engine if you have it ) Enya Amarntine You know when you give your love away It opens your heart, everything is new. And you know time will always find a way to let your heart believe it's true. You know love is everything you say; a whisper, a word, promises you give. You feel it in the heartbeat of the day. You know this is the way love is. Chorus Amarantine... Amarantine... Amarantine... Love is love is love You know love may sometimes make you cry, so let the tears go, they will flow away, for you know love will always let you fly -how far a heart can fly away! Chorus You know when love's shining in your eyes it may be the stars falling from above. And you know love is with you when you rise, for night and day belong to love. | ||

hey janey thanks for the link ill look in to it. ya hoo and my computer don’t get along though, but ill try it. your song reminds me of an oldie but not moldy. And now the purple dusk of twilight time Steals across the meadows of my heart High up in the sky the little stars climb Always reminding me that were apart You wander down the lane and far away Leaving me a song that will not die Love is now the stardust of yesterday The music of the years gone by Sometimes I wonder why I spend The lonely night dreaming of a song The melody haunts my reverie And I am once again with you When our love was new And each kiss an inspiration But that was long ago Now my consolation Is in the stardust of a song Beside a garden wall When stars are bright You are in my arms The nightingale tells his fairy tale A paradise where roses bloom Though I dream in vain In my heart it will remain My stardust melody The memory of loves refrain Put down by Nat king Cole the only version that is valid. Don't even start with the Sinatra version. It don't compare. But there is an orchestral version with a vocal harmony group that is excellent, but I cant remember the who it was, they did a version of deep purple that is amazing too. Maybe some 30s 40s music fans could help me out here. | ||

I get up in the evening, and I aint got nothing to say I come home in the morning, I go to bed feeling the same way I aint nothing but tired, man Im just tired and bored with myself Hey there baby, I could use just a little help You cant start a fire, you cant start a fire without a spark This guns for hire even if were just dancing in the dark Message keeps getting clearer, radios on and Im moving round the place I check myself out in the mirror I wanna change my clothes my hair my face Man I aint getting nowhere just sitting in a dump like this Theres something happening somewhere baby I just know that there is You cant start a fire... You sit around getting older theres a joke here somewhere and its on me Ill shake this world off my shoulders come baby this laughs on me Stay on the streets of this town and theyll be carving you up alright They say you got to stay hungry hey baby Im just about starving tonight Im dying for some action Im sick of sitting round here trying to write This book I need a love reaction come on now baby give me just one look You cant start a fire.. 4 legs the freakiest part a bit confusing though, I was not afraid. you by now know what’s going on What is that they said when I got here welcome to the grid. We are in many places living different walks of life. Fear keeps us apart, except one she is a real good friend, and deserving of better Ps id rather sort out the metaphysical first but that cant happen without real time communication of some sort But I aint holding my breath. Peace it was lovely. When You asked how I've been here without you I'd like to say I've been fine and I do. But we both know the truth is hard to come by And if I told the truth that's not quite true Some days are diamonds some days are stones Sometimes the hard times won't leave me alone Sometimes a cold wind blows a chill in my bones Some days are diamonds some days are stones. Now the face that I see in my mirror More and more is a stranger to me More and more I can see there's a danger In becoming what I never thought I'd be Some days are diamonds some days are stones Sometimes the hard times won't leave me alone Sometimes a cold wind blows a chill in my bones Some days are diamonds some days are stones. Some days are diamonds some days are stones Sometimes the hard times won't leave me alone Sometimes a cold wind blows a chill in my bones Some days are diamonds some days are stones. But some days are diamonds and those are the ones I cherish. | ||

Crosby Stills Nash & Young - Anything At All Anything you want to know, just ask me. I'm the world's most opinionated man. I'll give you an answer if I can. Catch one passing through That feels right for you. Anything you want to know, just ask me. It's worth every cent it costs, And you know it's free for you. Special deal! Anything you want to know? It should be perfectly clear! You see, just beneath the surface of the mud, There's more mud here... Surprise! Is there anything you want to know, On any subject at all? I've got time for one more question here, Before I fall. Is there anything at all? "In the end, only kindness matters." | ||

buddie.....Van makes me feel so mellow and happy! One of my all-time faves! About the Metallica song(s)....I thought about it, but I guess I thought that this thread was supposed to be about "feel-good" songs!?? I admit I have not read this entire thread, but it mostly seems like only positive lyrics are asked for? But.....since it's YOU who asked me to post the Metallica lyrics, I will do so!!! I mean, after all.....songs that explore darker emotions/subjects, can be "good & juicy songs for the psyche", as well! (And by the way, I know it's not correct "form" or whatever, but I like to use punctuation marks.) I will post lyrics to TWO Metallica songs, since I am not sure which one you are asking for. They both resonate for me, relative to the issues of abuse/mind control. The first one, I relate it to two different (yet similar, IMO) things: Addiction, and the presence of violent alter personalities. UNTIL IT SLEEPS Where do I take this pain of mine? I run, but it stays right my side. So, tear me open, pour me out! There's things inside that scream and shout! And the pain still hates me, So hold me, until it sleeps. Just like a curse, just like a stray; You feed it once, and now it stays. So, tear me open, but beware! There's things inside without a care! And the dirt still stains me, So wash me, until I'm clean. It grips you, so hold me! It stains you, so hold me! It hates you, so hold me! It holds you, so hold me, Until it sleeps. So tell me why you've chosen me? Don't want your grip, don't want your greed! Don't want it! I'll tear me open, make you gone! No more can you hurt anyone! And the fear still shakes me, So hold me, until it sleeps. I don't want it, want it, want it! NO! So tear me open, but beware! This thing's inside without a care! And the dirt still stains me, So wash me, 'till I'm clean... I'll tear me open, make you gone! No longer will you hurt anyone! And the fear still shapes me, So hold me, until it sleeps... HERO OF THE DAY Mama, they try and break me. The window burns to light the way back home; A light that warms, no matter where they've gone! They're off to find the hero of the day! But what if they should fall by someone's wicked way? Still the window burns, Time so slowly turns, And someone there is sighing. Keepers of the flames, Do you feel your name? Did you hear your babies crying? Mama they try and break me. Still, they try and break me. Excuse me, while I tend to how to feel These things return to me that still seem real! And now, deservingly, this easy chair! But the rocking's stopped by wheels of despair! Don't want your aid, But the fist I've made for years can't hold off fear! No, I'm not all "me", so please excuse me while I tend to how I feel!! And now the dreams, and waking screams, that everlast the night..... So build a wall, behind it, crawl, and hide until it's light.... So can't you hear your babies crying now? Still, the window burns, time so slowly turns, and someone there is sighing! Keepers of the flames, Can't you hear your names? Can't you hear your babies crying?? But now, the dreams, and waking screams, That everlast the night..... So build a wall, Behind it, crawl, And hide until it's light.... So can't you hear your babies crying now? Mama THEY try and break me. Mama they TRY and break me. Mama they try and BREAK me Mama they try, Mama they try. Mama they try and break me! Mama they try and break me! Mama they try and break me! Mama they try Mama they try..... Mama!

She Broke her promise On a summer day in 1943 In a little church,with just close fam-i-ly Two Lovers vowed with young and tender Hearts to have - to hold - till death do they part As the years roll by They saw their children grown Oh he always said If one of us is left alone Lets promise that We'll marry someone new He promised her and she promised him too .......CHORUS.......... But she broke her promise She never wanted another 'cause there's just no other Who could ever come close.. There memories to-gether Will last her for Ever She broke her promise She made so long - a-go .............................. Now she keeps busy Living all alone In a little house That memories made a home And the Kids drop by To visit when they can But only God Knows how much She Miss'es her man She Broke her promise She never wanted another 'Cause there's just no other Who could follow her Man Their Memories Together Will Last her forever she broke her promise But she knows he understands!

My good friend, Pete, turned me onto this band in the past few weeks. If you get a chance buy/download their tunes, you won't regret it..... Aqualung "Can't get you out of my mind" "A kiss is not just a kiss A smile is more than a smile Maybe we get together Maybe forever Maybe just for a while I've seen the look in your eye I've seen you wondering why There's a centre of gravity Brings you near to me Nearer all the time And I'm petrified Hypnotised Every time you walk by And I can't get you Out of my Mind Thought you'd never be mine I thought I was wasting my time Darling every time I think of you I can't believe it's true That you're here by my side And I'm petrified Hypnotised Every time you walk by And I'm petrified Hypnotised Every time you walk by And I can't get you Out of my Mind" and then there's "Brighter Than Sunshine" "I never understood before I never knew what love was for My heart was broke, my head was sore What a feeling Tied up in ancient history I didnt believe in destiny I look up you're standing next to me What a feeling What a feeling in my soul Love burns brighter than sunshine Brighter than sunshine Let the rain fall, i don't care I'm yours and suddenly you're mine Suddenly you're mine and it's brighter than sunshine I never saw it happening I'd given up and given in I just couldn't take the hurt again What a feeling I didn't have the strength to fight suddenly you seemed so right Me and you What a feeling What a feeling in my soul Love burns brighter than sunshine It's brighter than sunshine Let the rain fall, I don't care I'm yours and suddenly you're mine Suddenly you're mine It's brighter than the sun It's brighter than the sun It's brighter than the sun, sun, shine. Love will remain a mystery But give me your hand and you will see Your heart is keeping time with me What a feeling in my soul Love burns brighter than sunshine It's brighter than sunshine Let the rain fall, I don't care I'm yours and suddenly you're mine Suddenly you're mine I got a feeling in my soul ..."

Thanks for the kind words, John. I hadn't left UC, just been reading from the sidelines as so much is going on in my life. I also got mightily put off by the atmosphere in certain threads and needed a little time out from it. Hope all is well.

as well as to be expected i gues, pretty good actually. any way glad your around. its been a battle though your right one day i hope that every one comes to an understanding. so much distrust here sometimes. but i asume that is all part of it like we have to walk through the fire. seems that to learn, for me my only reason for staying actually, we have to be cautious of what others are learing or believe and how to rectify the 2 or more thought forms. for me the whole experience has taken a turn in the learning and i think some get put off by it but i just want answers to mysteries without the atacks and mind games some feel the need to play. sad really if you think about it. but we get up and dust ourslves off and polish our armor and go again. for we wake to a new day and why waste it. anyway pop in more often when you can. it does sound as if you have been ocupied. and ill check that band out that you sujested. | ||

When I was a young buck I tried to be liked by Everyone Everyone I tried so hard to be funny and nice I tried so hard to be sugar and spice Didn't work for me Got old quickly But now I'm not losing sleep at night No one's calling me on the telephone To see if I'm at home Cause now I've got everything that I have ever wanted or so it seems Yeah so it seems yeah You don't Have to Like me Anymore I've got money now I don't care What you say About me Anymore I've got money now When I got a little older I realized It's all lies There is no prize There is no prize There is no heartache if you can afford Everything delivered right to your door No responsibilities This life is easy So now girl with everything How could she complain Cause she's got it made Yeah she's got it made I don't need to be tucked in at night Told that everything is gonna be alright Is gonna be alright Cause I don't have to fight You don't Have to Like me Anymore I've got money now I don't care What you say About me Anymore I've got money now I wouldn't trade a dollar for some sense I wouldn't trade a lifetime for some friends I've got everything And all is what it seems I worked so hard all of my life Just to have things I could call mine I don't need no love Cause I have got enough So now I don't mind being alone all the time It's alright I've got money now That's what it's all about And I'm so busy buying things and traveling I don't have time for friends Or family And that's fine with me Or so it seems You don't Have to Like me Anymore I've got money now I don't care What you say About me Anymore I've got money now You don't Have to Like me Anymore I've got money now I don't care What you say About me Anymore Cause I've got money now From "I'm Not Dead" by Pink, 2006 "In the end, only kindness matters." | ||

here's a real cheerful one...great song for expressing angst though: Black - Pearl Jam Sheets of empty canvas, untouched sheets of clay Were laid spread out before me, as her body once did All five horizons revolved around her soul As the earth to the sun Now the air I tasted and breathed has taken a turn Ooh, and all I taught her was everything Ooh, I know she gave me all that she wore And now my bitter hands chafe beneath the clouds Of what was everything? Oh, the pictures have all been washed in black, tattooed everything... I take a walk outside I'm surrounded by some kids at play I can feel their laughter, so why do I sear Oh, and twisted thoughts that spin round my head I'm spinning, oh, I'm spinning How quick the sun can, drop away And now my bitter hands cradle broken glass Of what was everything? All the pictures have all been washed in black, tattooed everything... All the love gone bad turned my world to black Tattooed all I see, all that I am, all I'll ever be...yeah... I know someday you'll have a beautiful life, I know you'll be a star In somebody else's sky, but why Why, why can't it be, why can't it be mine | ||

this is a beautiful song...some of the phrases kinda get me choked up (although I don't think the emotions that I'm feeling have anything to do with the original meaning of the song) Paul Simon - American Tune Many's the time i've been mistaken And many times confused Yes, and often felt forsaken And certainly misused Oh, but i'm alright, i'm alright I'm just weary to my bones Still, you don't expect to be Bright and bon vivant So far a-way from home, so far away from home I don't know a soul who's not been battered I don't have a friend who feels at ease I don't know a dream that's not been shattered Or driven to its knees Oh, but it's alright, it's alright For we lived so well so long Still, when i think of the Road we're traveling on I wonder what's gone wrong And i dreamed i was dying I dreamed that my soul rose unexpectedly And looking back down at me Smiled reassuringly And i dreamed i was flying And high up above my eyes could clearly see The statue of liberty Sailing away to sea And i dreamed i was flying We come on the ship they call the mayflower We come on the ship that sailed the moon We come in the a-ge's most uncertain hours And sing an american tune Oh, and it's alright, it's alright, it's alright You can't be forever blessed Still, tomorrow's going to be another working day And i'm trying to get some rest That's all i'm trying to get some rest "...I have squandered my resistance for a pocketful of mumbles, such are promises. All lies and jest - still, a man hears what he wants to hear, and disregards the rest." | ||

MAN!!! Greasy, that brought tears to my eyes, and goose bumps all up and down my arms; both the lyrics from "American Song", and the partial lyrics from "The Boxer". I recently inherited pristine vinyl copies of both "Bookends" and "Bridge Over Troubled Waters". I will cherish them always, as they replace my well-worn first AND second copies of both albums! Now, I will just HAVE to go in the other room, and pull them out and put them on the turntable! That might be just the ticket for the motivation I need to get back to packing and moving! Seems appropriate, to dredge up musical memories, as I dredge up memories in the process of packing! "In the end, only kindness matters." | ||

"Other side of the World" - KT Tunstall Over the sea and far away She's waiting like an iceberg Waiting to change But she's cold inside She wants to be like the water All the muscles tighten in her face Buries her soul in one embrace They're one and the same Just like water The fire fades away Most of everyday Is full of tired excuses But it's to hard to say I wish it were simple But we give up easily You're close enough to see that You're the other side of the world to me On comes the panic light Holding on with fingers and feelings alike But the time has come To move along The fire fades away Can you help me Can you let me go And can you still love me When you can't see me anymore The fire fades away "...I have squandered my resistance for a pocketful of mumbles, such are promises. All lies and jest - still, a man hears what he wants to hear, and disregards the rest." | ||

It won't be fun waiting for the bus today It's raining and Just plain Yuck this morning. Needed a song that would stick in my head for the bus ride This thing called love I just can't handle it this thing called love I must get around to it I ain't ready Crazy little thing called love This thing called love..called love It cries like a baby In a cradle all night It swings..Woo Woo It jives..Woo Woo It shakes all over like a jelly fish I kinda like it Crazy little thing called love There goes my baby he knows how to rock n' roll he drives me crazy He gives me hot and cold fever Then leaves he leaves me in a cool cool sweat I gotta be cool relax get hip Get on my tracks Take a back seat hitch hike And take a long ride on my motor bike Until I'm ready Crazy little thing called love This thing called love I just can't handle it this thing called love I must get around to it I ain't ready Crazy little thing called love Queen (Message edited by buddie on November 16, 2006) Qua da di | ||

here's one that I try to play on my guitar (while singing, even!) - slightly bitter lyrics, but overall it's good advice... Hide Your Love Away - The Beatles Here I stand, head in hand Turn my face to the wall If she's gone I can't go on feeling two foot tall Everywhere, people stare each and every day I can see them laugh at me, and I hear them say: Hey! You've got to hide your love away Hey! You've got to hide your love away How could she say to me: Love will find a way Gather 'round, all you clowns Let me hear you say: Hey! You've got to hide your love away Hey! You've got to hide your love away Yup, words to live by... "...I have squandered my resistance for a pocketful of mumbles, such are promises.

When a party is winding down and it's the dimming of the day!! Thats one of my favourite acoustic songs. Sounds like your "off" switch is "on" so is mine. I believe it's all in the timing..when we're ready crazy little thing called love will be FUN AGAIN One more for the broken hearted.... Sting..Never coming Home Well it's five in the morning and the light's already broken. And the rainy streets are empty for nobody else has woken Yet you turn towards the window as he sleeps beneath the covers And wonder what he's dreaming in his slumbers There's a clock upon the table and it's burning up the hour And you feel your life is shrinking like the petals of a flower As you creep towards the closet you're so careful not to wake him And you choose the cotton dress you bought last summer There's a time of indecision between the bedroom and the door But the part of you that knows that you can't take it anymore There's the promise of a future in the creaking of the floor And you're torn if you should leave him a number Now in her imagination she's a million miles away When too many of his promises got broken on the way So she wrote it in a letter all the things she couldn't say And she told him she was never coming home Qua da di | ||

Hello...you wanna cup of coffee? I'm sorry, would you like a cup of coffee? Ok you take cream and sugar? In truck stops and hamburger joints In Cadillac limousines In the company of has-beens And bent-backs and sleeping forms On pavement steps In libraries and railway stations In books and banks In the pages of history In suicidal cavalry attacks I recognise... Myself in every stranger's eyes And now from where I stand Upon this hill I plundered from the pool I look around, I search the skies I shade my eyes, so nearly blind And I see signs of half remembered days I hear bells that chime in strange familiar ways I recognise... The hope you kindle in your eyes It's oh so easy now As we lie here in the dark Nothing interferes it's obvious How to beat the tears That threaten to snuff out The spark of our love 5.06 AM (Every Strangers Eyes) Roger Waters So ladies, fish and gentlemen Here’s my angled dream See me in the blue sky bag And meet me by the sea | ||

gee buddie, is it that obvious? Yeah, I guess my 'off' switch is stuck in the 'on' position...I think with me, it's not so much the fun part of 'love' or the timing of finding it...the older I get, the more I realize that those chemical/social thrills that new 'love' brings are OK...but they pale in comparison to realizing the dream of your life. I'm just mourning the loss of my dreams...eventually I'll get over it; probably about the time I get re-absorbed back into the restless sleepwalking and soulless drudgery of a meaningless rat-race existence. But hey, enough of my gloominess - back to the tunes! "...I have squandered my resistance for a pocketful of mumbles, such are promises. All lies and jest - still, a man hears what he wants to hear, and disregards the rest." | ||

I wish I could find the rest of the lyrics so I could do a full spoof, but in lieu of that seemingly-never-to-be tune, a mere snippet: "Greasy...gotcha CRA-a-A-zy!" "To sit outside where gold leaves glide Swirled azure eyes, autumn bits applied Swift month's fled, but I am not bothered October shall dwell in my heart forever" | ||

"...'Tis better to have loved and lost, than...ah the hell with it, where's the asphole who came up with this crap? I wanna punch 'im..." "To sit outside where gold leaves glide Swirled azure eyes, autumn bits applied Swift month's fled, but I am not bothered October shall dwell in my heart forever" | ||

Well, to counter all this anti-love stuff I gotta add a tune from an album I picked up today. Anyone remember Depeche Mode? "I Feel You" I feel you Your sun it shines I feel you Within my mind You take me there You take me where The kingdom comes You take me to And lead me through Babylon This is the morning of our love Its just the dawning of our love I feel you Your heart it sings I feel you The joy it brings Where heaven waits Those golden gates And back again You take me to And lead me through Oblivion This is the morning of our love Its just the dawning of our love I feel you Your precious soul And I am whole I feel you Your rising sun My kingdom comes I feel you Each move you make I feel you Each breath you take Where angels sing And spread their wings My loves on high You take me home To glorys throne By and by This is the morning of our love Its just the dawning of our love Just got home from an amazing gig, am singing along to the tune right now. "Some day the wind will change and you will see me clearly,One day these dreams of mine will bring me to my time" Nitin Sawhney - Falling | ||

Hey, long time no see! Am I imagining things, or has your L gotten bigger?  "To sit outside where gold leaves glide Swirled azure eyes, autumn bits applied Swift month's fled, but I am not bothered October shall dwell in my heart forever" | ||

All I remember about Depeche Mode was the pre-Waxy mini-spoof I did of one of their songs: "You'll be a eunuch "So, which shall it be? "A hacksaw from him or "A big knife from me?" "To sit outside where gold leaves glide Swirled azure eyes, autumn bits applied Swift month's fled, but I am not bothered October shall dwell in my heart forever" | ||

You're welcome, John. One more Depeche Mode tune to get the day started........ Stripped Come with me Into the trees Well lay on the grass And let the hours pass Take my hand Come back to the land Lets get away Just for one day Let me see you Stripped down to the bone Let me see you Stripped down to the bone Metropolis Has nothing on this Youre breathing in fumes I taste when we kiss Take my hand Come back to the land Where everythings ours For a few hours Let me see you Stripped down to the bone Let me see you Stripped down to the bone Let me hear you Make decisions Without your television Let me hear you speaking Just for me Let me see you Stripped down to the bone Let me hear you speaking Just for me Let me see you Stripped down to the bone let me hear you crying Just for me Waxy, is that a spoof of People Are People? Sounds like it.......  "Some day the wind will change and you will see me clearly,One day these dreams of mine will bring me to my time" Nitin Sawhney - Falling | ||

Very observant of you, Miz "SharLr's Angels"! My other "fave" bunch of Brits from that era were the "Human" League - they always looked more like vampires to me!  "Keep Craving Exsanguination" - The Undead League If it seems our flesh is somewhat faded Our urges to get laid (Hey, hey, hey, heeey) 200 years can make one jaded Especially in the grave It's something like a soul infection That makes us all this way (Hey, hey, hey, heeey) Think of it as reverse injection With a bit of nookie-play And so the casket-hinges turned After the sun went down And many hearts were yanked and burned The next day Keep craving exsanguination Skin so pasty Fangs so long Keep craving exsanguination Necking, biting, Moving on Well we hope we never meet Van Helsing Like Bram Stoker told (Hey, hey, hey, heeey) 'Cause we really like eternal living Despite maggot-holes and mold And so the casket-hinges turned After the sun went down And many hearts were yanked and burned The next day Keep craving exsanguination Skin so pasty Fangs so long Keep craving exsanguination Necking, biting, Moving on And so the casket-hinges turned After the sun went down And many hearts were yanked and burned The next day Keep craving exsanguination Skin so pasty Fangs so long Keep craving exsanguination Necking, biting, Moving on Keep craving exsanguination Skin so pasty Fangs so long Keep craving exsanguination Necking, biting, Moving on. "To sit outside where gold leaves glide Swirled azure eyes, autumn bits applied Swift month's fled, but I am not bothered October shall dwell in my heart forever" | ||

Oh no waxy, lol. That’s my favorite song of theirs. is nothing sacred anymore I was going to post that one actually. Man! some ones abilities are stepping up. I can hear necromancy in it now that you mention it. Lol But here is my fave depeche mode song. No I don't own any drag regalia or perform week ends in the bad part of town or take prenatal vitamins. depeche mode - Blue Dress Lyrics Put it on And don't say a word Put it on The one that I prefer Put it on And stand before my eyes Put it on Please don't question why Can you believe Something so simple Something so trivial Makes me a happy man Can't you understand Say you believe Just how easy It is to please me Because when you learn You'll know what makes the world turn Put it on I can feel so much Put it on I don't need to touch Put it on Here before my eyes Put it on Because you realize And you believe Something so worthless Serves a purpose It makes me a happy man Can't you understand Say you believe Just how easy It is to please me Because when you learn You'll know what makes the world turn I don't know this one is so pretty the way he sings it I just have to share it. Just sensual and mind altering. Passionate. Makes me feel loved. Now I have people are people in my head. Cant you understand bada boomp boomp boomp. | ||

Don't get the wrong idea, SharLr, I've never been anti-love...just pretty much empty, raw and numb at the moment and trying to get it out - better out than in, as they say. There's a lesson somewhere in all of this...I keep hoping it's not "stop with the stupid dreams already" but something a bit easier to swallow like "just get a cat and forget about trying to interact with people" (yeah I know - I'm weird) Woohoo on the amazing gig - nothing like good music and good times... "...I have squandered my resistance for a pocketful of mumbles, such are promises. All lies and jest - still, a man hears what he wants to hear, and disregards the rest." | ||

here's one that always gives me chills - it was my wedding song, actually: Into The Mystic - Van Morrison We were born before the wind, also younger than the sun Ere the bonnie boat was won as we sailed into the mystic Hark, now hear the sailors cry, smell the sea and feel the sky Let your soul and spirit fly into the mystic And when that fog horn blows I will be coming home And when that fog horn blows I want to hear it I don't have to fear it I want to rock your gypsy soul Just like way back in the days of old Then magnificently we will float into the mystic And when that fog horn blows you know I will be coming home And when thst fog horn whistle blows I got to hear it I don't have to fear it I want to rock your gypsy soul Just like way back in the days of old And together we will float into the mystic Come on girl... "...I have squandered my resistance for a pocketful of mumbles, such are promises. All lies and jest - still, a man hears what he wants to hear, and disregards the rest." | ||
