Mamas that was awesome love Al G I'm going to post the words to Fix You By Coldplay..but if someone would post the youtube video it would make my day thanks Fix You When you try your best and you don't succeed When you get what you want but not what you need When you feel so tired but you can't sleep Stuck in reverse And the tears come streaming down your face When you lose something you can't replace When you love someone but it goes to waste Could be worse? Lights will guide you home and ignite your bones And I will try to Fix You High up above or down below When you're too in love to let it go But if you never try you'll never know Just what your worth Lights will guide you home and ignite your bones And I will try to Fix You Tears streaming down your face When you lose something you cannot replace Tears streaming down your face And I will try to Fix You I promise you I will learn from my mistakes Tears streaming down my face And I will try to Fix You Lights will guide you home and ignite your bones And I will Fix You Cold play (Message edited by buddie on July 14, 2007) "I know I did not come here to be comfortable but to grow"..

(by Eric Clapton, Jack Bruce, Ginger Baker) It's getting near dawn, When lights close their tired eyes. I'll soon be with you my love, To give you my dawn surprise. I'll be with you darling soon, I'll be with you when the stars start falling. I've been waiting so long To be where I'm going In the sunshine of your love. I'm with you my love, The light's shining through on you. Yes, I'm with you my love, It's the morning and just we two. I'll stay with you darling now, I'll stay with you till my seas are dried up. Chorus Second Verse I've been waiting so long I've been waiting so long I've been waiting so long To be where I'm going In the sunshine of your love. Eric Clapton Sunshine Of Your Love lyrics "Who knows?" "We'll see."

firestarter.. I remember that album cover picture what were they 16 at the time? More like the movies lyrics I guess the dance is over now So you just curtsey and I'll bow And ask the band to play us Auld Lang Syne Then I'll just take whats left of me Right back to where it used to be And you'll go sail your magic carpet Far across the sky I wish I could have made it More like the movies for you Some pretty techni-color way it's never been I'm sorry when I kissed you You only heard me whisper You never got to hear those violins Did you Girl? No you never got to hear those violins The castles that you built so high Were just too steep for me to climb And I guess these dirty streets of mine Were just too rough for you I wish I could have helped you see Just one of your sweet childhood dreams But though I tried I could not make not one of them come true And I wish I could have made it More like the movies for you Some pretty techni-color way it's never been I'm sorry when I kissed you You only heard me whisper You never got to hear those violins Did you girl? No you never got to hear those violins Oh I'm sorry when I kissed you You only heard me whisper You never got to hear those violins No you never got to hear those violins Dr Hook & the medicine show "I know I did not come here to be comfortable but to grow"..

This is for the sad inner child inside each of us who has ever been made to feel that he/she doesn't measure up. Artist/Band: Chambers Kasey Lyrics for Song: Not Pretty Enough Lyrics for Album: Barricades & Brickwalls Am I not pretty enough Is my heart to broken Do I cry too much Am I too outspoken Don't I make you laugh Should I try it harder Why do you see right through me I live, I breathe, I let it rain on me I sleep, I wake, I try hard not to break I crave, I love, I've waited long enough I try as hard as I can Am I not pretty enough Is my heart to broken Do I cry too much Am I too outspoken Don't I make you laugh Should I try it harder Why do you see right through me I laugh, I feel, I make believe it's real I fall, I freeze, I pray down on my knees I hope, I stand, I take it like a man I try as hard as I can Am I not pretty enough Is my heart to broken Do I cry too much Am I too outspoken Don't I make you laugh Should I try it harder Why do you see right through me Why do you see Why do you see Why do you see right through me Why do you see Why do you see Why do you see right through me Why do you see Why do you see Why do you see right through me Why do you see Why do you see Why do you see right through me To listen to it, go here. |

Rainy Night, I'm All Alone Sittin' Here Waitin' For Your Voice on the Phone Fever Turns to Cold, Cold Sweat Thinkin' About the Things We Ain't Done yet Tell me now, I've got to know, do you feel the same Do you just light up at the mention of my name? Don't worry baby, it ain't nothin' new That's just love sneakin' up on you If your whole world's shakin' and you feel like I do That's just love sneakin' up on you Nowhere on Earth for your heart to hide Once love comes sneakin' upon your blindside And you might as well try to Stop the Rain Or stand in the tracks of a Runaway Train You just can't fight it when a thing's meant to be So come on let's finish what you started with me Don't worry baby, it ain't nothin' new That's just love sneakin' up on you If your whole world's shakin' and you feel like I do That's just love sneakin' up on you Bonnie Raitt Love Sneaking Up On You lyrics "Who knows?"

Great songs posted lately!!! Graciesmom, that David Sylvian song is wonderful!!! Beautiful lyrics, too! Another new discovery for me, thanks to you! "Unchained Melody" has very special meaning for me, as well. It has brought me to tears since I was a little kid!! Al Green.....man, there is something about his unusual voice that gets to me! Love him! Ahhh, Cream!!! What memories that brings up! And coldplay......they have become a new favorite. Really moving! "Fix You"....what a beautiful sentiment!!! And Dr. Hook, et.al......I had not thought about them for a hundred years!!! Great!!! Oh, Miaree.....you got to me with that one! What a sweet spirit you are!! And yet another discovery of an artist I was not familiar with, and really do like now, thanks to you! Oh, and Bonnie Raitt! God, I love her! What a woman! She could eat crackers......uh, um...well, anyway.....she's killer! And Cheap Trick! Just love them! I posted "Dream Police" lyrics not too terribly long ago! I can certainly identify with those lyrics.....way too often, it seems. ------- I heard this a couple of hours ago, and I thought about so many of the people here on the board. "New World Man" He's a rebel and a runner He's a signal turning green He's a restless young romantic Wants to run the big machine He's got a problem with his poisons But you know he'll find a cure He's cleaning up his system To keep his nature pure Learning to match the beat of the old world man Learning to catch the heat of the third world man He's got to make his own mistakes And learn to mend the mess he makes He's old enough to know what's right But young enough not to choose it He's noble enough to win the world But weak enough to lose it --- He's a new world man... He's a radio receiver Tuned to factories and farms He's a writer and arranger And a young boy bearing arms He's got a problem with his power With weapons on patrol He's got to walk a fine line And keep his self-control Trying to save the day for the old world man Trying to pave the way for the third world man He's not concerned with yesterday He knows constant change is here today He's noble enough to know what's right But weak enough not to choose it He's wise enough to win the world But fool enough to lose it --- He's a new world man... by Rush Rush performing "New World Man" Posting the Rush performance, well, because they are one of my faves, and the video gave me chills! Animation to "New World Man" Posting that one, cause it is just so well done, and works really well with the song. I have only recently become slightly familiar with this animator. I'm learning all kinds of new things through this thread! "In the end, only kindness matters."

Awesome Memories.. CHEAP TRICK.. Reminds me of my camping days Lets not call it Love Burn me like wood Burn me up Burn me hot and good But lets not call it love Call it passion or bliss Call it crush or wish Call it rapture or luck But lets not call it Lets not call it love Kiss me like your first Kiss me like the one Kiss me like your last thirst But lets not call it love Lets not call it love From the deepest dark where you dreamed of me Eclipsed for a year perhaps eternity Comes the perfect harmony Treacherous but Sweet Take me in your arms Take me tenderly Take me with your charms Take me,take me,take me I wonder if you'll get me I wonder if you would I wonder if you'll catch me I wonder if you could it's unearthly Some Artist Site  "I know I did not come here to be comfortable but to grow"..

Wipe your mind clean of how the music sounds along with the words in this song. Then read the words and tell me this is not one heavy duty song. ...You'd never know it for as silly as the music accompanyment is. Wish Billy had gone for a more serious sound...... Billy Joel The River of Dreams In the middle of the night I go walking in my sleep From the mountains of faith To a river so deep I must be looking for something Something sacred I lost But the river is wide And it's too hard to cross And even though I know the river is wide I walk down every evening and I stand on the shore And try to cross to the opposite side So I can finally find out what I've been looking for In the middle of the night I go walking in my sleep Through the valley of fear To a river so deep And I've been searching for something Taken out of my soul Something I would never lose Something somebody stole I don't know why I go walking at night But now I'm tired and I don't want to walk anymore I hope it doesn't take the rest of my life Until I find what it is that I've been looking for In the middle of the night I go walking in my sleep Through the jungle of doubt To a river so deep I know I'm searching for something Something so undefined That it can only be seen By the eyes of the blind In the middle of the night I'm not sure about a life after this God knows I've never been a spiritual man Baptized by the fire, I wade into the river That runs to the promised land In the middle of the night I go walking in my sleep Though the desert of truth To the river so deep We all end in the ocean We all start in the streams We're all carried along By the river of dreams In the middle of the night "No Guru, no method, no teacher, just you and I and nature." ---Van Morrison

John Lennon - Imagine Imagine there's no Heaven It's easy if you try No hell below us Above us only sky Imagine all the people Living for today Imagine there's no countries It isn't hard to do Nothing to kill or die for And no religion too Imagine all the people Living life in peace You may say that I'm a dreamer But I'm not the only one I hope someday you'll join us And the world will be as one Imagine no possessions I wonder if you can No need for greed or hunger A brotherhood of man Imagine all the people Sharing all the world You may say that I'm a dreamer But I'm not the only one I hope someday you'll join us And the world will live as one http://youtube.com/watch?v=jEOkxRLzBf0 Let us not look back in anger or forward in fear, but around in awareness.

Here's one that makes me "turn it up!" (Stephen Stills, Richard Curtis and Michael Curtis) [Intro. (Acoustic Guitars)] Oooh ... Got out of town on a boat goin' to Southern islands Sailing a reach before a followin' sea She was makin' for the trades on the outside And the downhill run to Papeete Off the wind on this heading lie the Marquesas We got eighty feet of the waterline nicely making way In a noisy bar in Avalon I tried to call you But on a midnight watch I realized why twice you ran away Think about Think about how many times I have fallen Spirits are using me larger voices callin' What Heaven brought you and me cannot be forgotten (Around the world) I have been around the world (Lookin') Lookin' for that woman girl (Who knows she knows) Who knows love can endure And you know it will When you see the Southern Cross for the first time You understand now why you came this way 'Cause the truth you might be runnin' from is so small But it's as big as the promise, the promise of a comin' day So I'm sailing for tomorrow my dreams are a dyin' And my love is an anchor tied to you tied with a silver chain I have my ship and all her flags are a' flyin' She is all that I have left and music is her name Think about Think about how many times I have fallen Spirits are using me larger voices callin' What Heaven brought you and me cannot be forgotten (I've been around the world) I have been around the world (Lookin') Lookin' for that woman girl Who knows love can endure And you know it will, and you know it will yes [Instrumental (Electric Guitars)] Oooh ... So we cheated and we lied and we tested And we never failed to fail it was the easiest thing to do You will survive being bested Somebody fine will come along make me forget about loving you At the southern cross [Ending (Acoustic Guitars)] "Who knows?" "We'll see."

Me, too, Firestarter! LOVE that album!!! I have gone through 2 copies on LP, one cassette tape, and finally got it on CD! And yeah, that's a "crank it up" song! And one of my other favorites from that album: 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, fall "In the end, only kindness matters."

We're having a heat wave, thought I'd "play" something steamy!
Baby, take off your coat...real slow Baby, take off your shoes...here, I'll take your shoes Baby, take off your dress Yes, yes, yes You can leave your hat on You can leave your hat on You can leave your hat on Go on over there and turn on the light...no, all the lights Now come back here and stand on this chair...that's right Raise your arms up in to the air...shake 'em You give me a reason to live You give me a reason to live You give me a reason to live Suspicious minds are talking Trying to tear us apart They say that my love is wrong They don't know what love is They don't know what love is They don't know what love is They don't know what love is I know what love is JOE COCKER - "You Can Leave Your Hat On" lyrics "Who knows?"

Etta James is ALL that! I don't know who did it first but it sure is steamy! Been SOOOOO hot here, 90+ for days now and with no end in sight.....when I get home from work I go out and play in the water with the horses, swatting horse flies as I cool them down. Today is the big horse race at Ellis Park horse racing track....I predict they may kill a horse today before its all done with. AH, just venting......

My dream from a few nights ago had this song running through it.. So what else can I do but Post it Changes by David Bowie I still don't know what I was waiting for And my time was running wild A million dead-end streets Every time I'd thought I'd got it made It seemed the taste was not so sweet So I turned myself to face me But I've never caught a glimpse Of how the others must see the faker I'm much too fast to take that test Ch-ch-cha-Changes (turn and face the strain) Ch-ch-cha-Changes don't wait to be a rich man Ch-ch-cha-Changes (turn and face the strain) Ch-ch-cha-Changes just gonna have to be a different man Time may change me But I can't trace time I watch the ripples change their size But never leave the stream of warm impermanence So the days float through my eyes But still the days seem the same And these children that you spit on as they try to change their worlds Are immune to your consultations They're quite aware of what they're going through Ch-ch-cha-Changes (turn and face the strain) Ch-ch-cha-Changes Don't tell them to grow up and out of it Ch-ch-cha-Changes (turn and face the strain) Ch-ch-cha-Changes Where's your shame You've left us up to our necks in it Time may change me But you can't trace time Strange fascination,fascinating me Changes are taking the pace I'm going through Ch-ch-cha-Changes Pretty soon your gonna get a little older Ch-ch-cha-Changes I said that time may change me But I can't trace time Ch-ch-cha-Changes But I can't trace time "I know I did not come here to be comfortable but to grow"..

No, no racing. Just a horse lover. Though, I learned to train my own horses. Ya, horses can be very dangerous. I've been lucky/safe.....but have taken others to the E.R.....It's awful. A lady I know had her grandchild hurt so bad by a horse that she was in a body cast.....she sold all her horses. Glad your friend is still in horses. I have two drafty horses. SOoo big....16.5 hands or more. But, I LOVE the large drafty horses. My farrier said he should charge me double....LOL! Draft horses are some slower in their responses.....I kinda like that, personally. Race horses......woo hoo......I suppose you have to be just real sure when on one of them! I heard the race I mentioned above went smooth with no horse being hurt in any way by the heat. SHEW! Take it easy!!!! "Who knows?" "We'll see."

Firestar YEAH Last Night I had the Strangest Dream Last night I had the strangest dream I'd ever dreamed before I dreamed the world had all agreed To put an end to war I dreamed I saw a mighty room Filled with women and men And the paper they were signing said They'd never fight again And when the paper was all signed A million copies made They all joined hands and bowed their heads And Grateful pray'rs were prayed And the people in the streets below Were dancing 'round and 'round While swords and guns and uniforms Were scattered on the ground Last night I had the strangest dream I'd never dreamed before I dreamed the world had all agreed To put an end to WAR Words and Music by Ed McCurdy "I know I did not come here to be comfortable but to grow"..

Story goes he converted during his Slave Trade Days.. Amazing Grace Amazing Grace how sweet the sound That saved a wretch like me I once was lost but now I'm found Was blind but now I see Twas grace that taught my heart to fear And grace my fears relieved How precious did that grace appear The hour I first believed Thro' many dangers toils and snares I have already come 'Tis grace has brought me safe thus far And Grace will lead me home The Lord has promised good to me His word my hope secures His will my shield and potion be As long as life endures Yes when this flesh and heart shall fail And mortal life shall cease I shall possess with in the veil A life of joy and piece The Earth shall soon dissolve like snow The Sun forbear to shine But God who called me here below Will be forever mine Lyrics by John Newton 1772 I think it MUST to be played on the PIPES  "I know I did not come here to be comfortable but to grow"..

Fire...I used to have dreams of riding a draft horse, and I was always wearing some kind of armor. Lo, I learn from a friend that THAT was the horse used for armor clad fighters. When I see them, I just love them. More than those smaller bretheren. Gentler, too (usually). Sorry for the derail. "No Guru, no method, no teacher, just you and I and nature." ---Van Morrison

The Bellamy Brothers Let Your Love Flow There's a reason for the sunshiny sky There's a reason why I'm feeling so high Must be the season when those love lights shine all around us So let that feeling grab you deep inside And send you reeling where your love can't hide And then go stealing through the moonlit night with your lover Just let your love flow like a mountain stream And let your love grow with the smallest of dreams And let your love show and you'll know what I mean it's the season Let your love fly like a bird on the wind And let your love find you to all living things And let your love shine and you'll know what I mean that's the reason There's a reason for the warm sweet nights And there's a reason for the candle lights Must be the season when those love lights shine all around us So let that wonder take you into space And lay you under its loving embrace Just feel the thunder as it warms your face you can't hold back Just let your love flow like a mountain stream And let your love grow with the smallest of dreams And let your love show and you'll know what I mean it's the season Let your love fly like a bird on the wind And let your love find you to all living things And let your love shine and you'll know what I mean that's the reason Just let your love flow like a mountain stream And let your love grow with the smallest of dreams And let your love show and you'll know what I mean it's the season Let your love fly like a bird on the wind And let your love find you to all living things And let your love shine and you'll know what I mean that's the reason. Let us not look back in anger or forward in fear, but around in awareness. James Thurber

Hard Headed Woman I'm looking for a hard headed woman One who will take me for myself And if I find my hard headed woman I won't need nobody else no,no,no I'm looking for a hard headed woman One who will make me do my best And if I find my hard headed woman I know the rest of my life will be blessed Yes yes yes I know a lot of fancy dancers People who can glide you on the floor They move so smooth but have no answers When you ask Why'd you come here for? I don't know Why? I know many fine feathered friends But their friendliness depends on how you do They know many sure fired ways to find out the one who pays and how you do I'm looking for a hard headed woman One who will make me feel so good And if I find my hard headed woman I know my life will be as it should Yes yes yes I'm looking for a hard headed woman One who will make me feel so good And if I find my hard headed woman I know my life will be as it should Cat Stevens "I know I did not come here to be comfortable but to grow"..

No leaf clover (metallica) And it feels right this time On his crash course with the big time Pay no mind to the distant thunder New day fills his head with wonder, boy Says it feels right this time Turned it 'round, and found the right line "Good day to be alive, Sir" Good day to be alive" he said. Then it comes to be that the soothing light at the end of your tunnel Was just a freight train coming your way Then it comes to be that the soothing light at the end of your tunnel Was just a freight train coming your way Don't it feel right like this? All the pieces fall to his wish "Sucker for that quick reward, boy Sucker for that quick reward" they say...! Then it comes to be that the soothing light at the end of your tunnel Was just a freight train coming your way Then it comes to be that the soothing light at the end of your tunnel Was just a freight train coming your way... It's coming your way It's coming your way, oh yeah Here it comes...! Yeah then it comes to be that the soothing light at the end of your tunnel Was just a freight train coming your way, yeah Then it comes to be, yeah (x8) |

lol, love this one, and the singer....... (Lyle Lovett) She hates my mama She hates my daddy too She loves to tell me She hates the things I do She loves to lie beside me Almost every night She's no lady she's my wife The preacher asked her And she said I do The preacher asked me And she said yes he does too And the preacher said I pronounce you 99 to life Son she's no lady she's your wife And I can't remember How I met her Seems like she's always just been hanging here off my right arm And I can't remember How I ever Thought that I just couldn't live without a woman's charm And even though She loves the smell of French perfume And even though She walks around in high-heel shoes All I know Is I'm the one who pays her price Man she's no lady she's my wife And I can't remember How I met her Seems like she's always just been hanging here off my right arm And I can't remember How I ever Thought that I just couldn't live without a woman's charm Yea she hates my mama She hates my daddy too She loves to tell me She hates the things I do She loves to lie beside me Almost every night She's no lady she's my wife "Who knows?"

Styx - Fooling Yourself (The Angry Young Man) (Tommy Shaw) You see the world through your cynical eyes You're a troubled young man I can tell You've got it all in the palm of your hand But your hand's wet with sweat and your head needs a rest And you're fooling yourself if you don't believe it You're kidding yourself if you don't believe it How can you be such an angry young man When your future looks quite bright to me How can there be such a sinister plan That could hide such a lamb, such a caring young man You're fooling yourself if you don't believe it You're kidding yourself if you don't believe it Get up, get back on your feet You're the one they can't beat and you know it Come on, let's see what you've got Just take your best shot and don't blow it You're fooling yourself if you don't believe it You're killing yourself if you don't believe it Get up, get back on your feet You're the one they can't beat and you know it Come on, let's see what you've got Just take your best shot and don't blow it |

Good, good song, Edward! Also just LOVE: Im sailing away, set an open course for the virgin sea Ive got to be free, free to face the life thats ahead of me On board, Im the captain, so climb aboard Well search for tomorrow on every shore And Ill try, oh lord, Ill try to carry on I look to the sea, reflections in the waves spark my memory Some happy, some sad I think of childhood friends and the dreams we had We live happily forever, so the story goes But somehow we missed out on that pot of gold But well try best that we can to carry on A gathering of angels appeared above my head They sang to me this song of hope, and this is what they said They said come sail away, come sail away Come sail away with me Come sail away, come sail away Come sail away with me I thought that they were angels, but to my surprise They climbed aboard their starship and headed for the skies Singing come sail away, come sail away Come sail away with me Come sail away, come sail away Come sail away with me (by Styx)

Now, if all my golden moments Could be rolled into one They would shine just like the sun For a summer day And after it was over We could have it back again With credit to the editor For striking out the rain (very clean) And all it really needed Was the proper point of view No ones gonna bring me down No ones gonna stop me now Now I gathered up my sorrows And I sold them all for gold And I gathered up the gold And I threw it all away It all went for a good time and a song (come on) The laughter was like music It did float my soul along for awhile And all it really needed was the proper point of view No ones gonna reach me here No ones gonna know I'm gone You may think I must be crazy And I guess you must be right But I know the way I feel today is out of sight I do not trust my senses to remember your name Without corrective lenses Things are never twice the same anyway And all it really needed Was the proper point of view No ones gonna bring me down No ones gonna stop me now No ones gonna reach me here No ones gonna know I'm gone (by James Taylor) ...and my "proper point of view" is provided by virtual tequila from Sal's!

Ballad of sally Rose Her mama picked him up In South Minnesota He promised her the word But they never got that far For he was last seen In a '59 DeSota When Sally was born In the black Hills of Dakota She was washed in the blood Of the dying Sioux nation Raised with a proud But a wandering heart And she knew that her roots Were in the old reservation But she had stars in her eyes And great expectations No rings on her fingers No bells on her toes With bugs on her headlights And runs in her hose Through the valley of the shadow Of Roosevelt's nose Adios South Dakota Adios Sally Rose Thet've got a national monument Carved out of stone On the side of the mountain Where her forefathers roamed Playing cowboys and Indians Right under the nose Of Theodore Roosevelt and Sweet Sally Rose So she left Rapid city In the blue moonlight hour With her eye on the highway And her foot on the floor And turnen' the dial She was pulled by the power Of the word coming out Of that broadcasting tower No rings on her fingers No bells on her toes With bugs on her headlights And runs in her hose Through the valley of the Shadow of Roosevelt's nose Adios South Dakota Adios Sally Rose by EmmyLou Harris "I know I did not come here to be comfortable but to grow"..

buddie, it was Jackson Browne who "discovered" Daryl Hannah!! And.....interestingly (tying in to the "angels" thing), Daryl had a "thing" about angels, and Jackson wrote about that on the "I'm Alive" album, particularly in the song, "Too Many Angels". In fact, the whole "I'm Alive" album was about his relationship, and breakup, with her. But, anyway, in the spirit of the segue'...... It's been a long time since I watched these lights alone I look around my life tonight and you are gone I might have done something to keep you if I'd known How unhappy you had become While I was dreaming of you With my heart in your hands And I was following though With my beautiful plans Yeah now I'm rolling down this canyon drive With your laughter in my head I'm gonna have to block it out somehow to survive 'cause those dreams are dead And I'm alive I want to go where I will never hear your name I want to lose my sorrow and be free again And I know I've been insane When I think of places I could have been But I was dreaming of you With my heart in your hands And I was following through With my beautiful plans Standing here by the highway side Watching these trucks blow by Inches from my face Yeah thinking 'bout the time I've wasted And the pleasure we once tasted Looking up and down this road I've been here before Can't be here no more Yeah now I'm rolling down California Five With your laughter in my head I'm gonna have to block it out somehow to survive 'cause those dreams are dead And I'm alive Hey look at the way I believed in you And loved you all these years Now you can fill a swimming pool with all my salty tears You should have told me what was in your heart But Baby you lied I thought that it would kill me But I'm alive Yeah, I'm alive I'm Alive

Oopps Edward.. OOoooo SW that is his heartbreak and the only cd I have by him.. He's never released another like it before or after as far as I'm concerned.. Daryll went on to play with John John and he really should have married her. Her love life has been tragic and now I really hope she's happy and at peace... Talk about Love Karma Whew!! That song I'm alive.. still tears my heart out but the title I'm Alive.. in hind sight ..

Boulder to Birmingham I don't want to hear a love song I got on this airplane just to fly And I know theres life below But all that it can show me Is the city and the sky And I don't want to hear a sad story Full of heartbreak and desire The last time I felt like this It was in the wilderness And the canyon was on fire And I stood on the mountain In the night And I watched it burn I watched it burn I watched it burn I would rock my soul in the bosom of Abraham I would hold my life in his saving grace I would walk all the way from Boulder to Birmingham If I thought I could see I could see your face Well you really got me this time And the hardest part is knowing I'll survive I have come to listen for the sound Of the trucks as they move down Out on ninety five And pretend that it's the ocean Coming down To wash me clean To wash me clean Baby don't you know what I mean I would rock my soul In the bosom of Abraham I would hold my life In his saving grace I would walk all the way From Boulder to Birmingham If I thought I could see I could see your face Sorry folks every time I bring her out I fall in love with her voice all over again Emmylou Harris "I know I did not come here to be comfortable but to grow"..

Yes, buddie, what sad stories, those! Seems I remember that there was speculation that "somebody" wasn't happy about JFKjr's relationship with her!? Oh, I forgot to say earlier.......I love Emmylou so much! I have 3 of her tapes (but not on CD yet). She is so talented, beautiful, and has the BEST hair!!! Mamas, I always loved Tanya, too! What guts she had! And what an entertainer!!! OK, here's a tasty little sump'm-sump'm fer ya. This'n oughta getcha right thru the heart! MOLLY BAN VIDEO Come all ye young fellas That handle a gun Beware of night rambling By the setting of the sun And beware of an accident That happened of late To young Molly Ban And sad was her fate She was going to her uncles When a shower came on She went under a green bush The shower to shun Her white apron wrapped around her He took her for a swan But a hush and sigh Was his own Molly Ban He quickly ran to her And found she was dead And there on her bosom Where he soaked, tears he shed He ran home to his father With his gun in his hand Saying "Father dear father I have shot Molly Ban" Her white apron wrapped around her He took her for a swan But a hush and a sigh 'Twas his own Molly Ban He roamed near the place Where his true love was slain He wept bitter tears But his cries were in vain As he look on the lake A swan glided by And the sun slowly sank In the gray up sky "In the end, only kindness matters."

"Say It's Alright Joe" Say it's alright Joe I need another drink To blow on the glass so I know I'm alive Play me a song Joe To fill the hours till morning Then never again will I bother you Ooh, Build myself a tower No way in no way out Then my friends can visit me Once in a while Say it's alright Joe I need some reassurance You never know what you might find in the night Ooh I'm just a busy bee Still alive in my hive I'm looking for some other world To dream out my dreams There were Kings who were laughing in the rain And they told me I'd come here to lead the parade All the colours were changing, the sky was in ruins The lights were all shining on me and on you Oh, Shine on... Say it's alright Joe The night will soon be over And nothing and no one will ever know Open my eyes Joe I'd like to see the daylight The clock on the wall says it's time to leave Never seen the same face twice Never walked the same way The little love that I have known I keep to myself If there's a fire, it's asleep in my bed I must leave it to burn till it burns itself out Catch as you can I'm not staying here long I'll be coming back early, or never at all Shine on... -GENESIS- "In the end, only kindness matters."

"Before The Deluge" Some of them were dreamers And some of them were fools Who were making plans and thinking of the future With the energy of the innocent They were gathering the tools They would need to make their journey back to nature While the sand slipped through the opening And their hands reached for the golden ring With their hearts they turned to each others heart for refuge In the troubled years that came before the deluge Some of them new pleasure And some of them knew pain And for some of them it was only the moment that mattered And on the brave and crazy wings of youth They went flying around in the rain And their feathers, once so fine, grew torn and tattered And in the end they traded their tired wings For the resignation that living brings And exchanged loves bright and fragile glow For the glitter and the rouge And in the moment they were swept before the deluge Now let the music keep our spirits high And let the buildings keep our children dry Let creation reveal its secrets by and by By and by-- When the light that's lost within us reaches the sky Some of them were angry At the way the earth was abused By the men who learned how to forge her beauty into power And they struggled to protect her from them Only to be confused By the magnitude of her fury in the final hour And when the sand was gone and the time arrived In the naked dawn only a few survived And in attempts to understand a thing so simple and so huge Believed that they were meant to live after the deluge Now let the music keep our spirits high And let the buildings keep our children dry Let creation reveal its secrets by and by By and by-- When the light that's lost within us reaches the sky (Jackson Browne) "In the end, only kindness matters."

I saw a thing on TV, I think, right after he died. It was interviews with him while he was making that last album, and while he was, of course, dying. I have not listened to any of that album either, except what was on that special.....and I don't remember the songs at all. Will have to check it out! "In the end, only kindness matters."

I dedicate this to QUas, because he talks about "going within" to deal with all the chaos in our lives and our world. It's just another day in paradise As you stumble to your bed You'd give anything to silence Those voices ringing in your head You thought you could find happiness Just over that green hill You thought you would be satisfied But you never will- Learn to be still We are like sheep without a shepherd, We don't know how to be alone So we wander round this desert And wind up following the wrong gods home But the flock cries out for another And they keep answering that bell And one more starry-eyed messiah Meets a violent farewell- Learn to be still Learn to be still Now the flowers in your garden They don't smell so sweet Maybe you've forgotten They've been lying at your feet There are so many contradictions In all these messages we send (we keep asking) How do I get out of here? Where do I fit in? Though the world is torn and shaken Even if your heart is breakin' It's waiting for you to awaken And someday you will- Learn to be still Learn to be still (Eagles) "In the end, only kindness matters."

Yes, Mr. Henley is yet another one with a way with words! On the OTHER HAND : Woke up with a heavy head And I thought about leavin' town I could have died if I wanted to- Slipped over the edge and drowned But, oh no baby, I won't give up so easy Too many tire tracks in the sands of time Too many love affairs that stop on a dime I think it's time to make some changes round here Yeah, I'm gonna tear it up Gonna trash it up I'm gonna round it up Gonna shake it up Oh, no, baby, I will not lie down I'm brave enough to be crazy I'm strong enough to be weak I see all these heroes with feet of clay Whose mighty ships have sprung a leak And I want you to tell me darlin Just what do you believe in now? Well, c'mon on over here baby You 'bout to gimme a heart attack I wanna wrap my lovin' arms Around the small of your back Yeah, and I'm gonna pull you, pull you, pull you Pull you right up close to me Yeah we're gonna tear it up We gonna trash it up Gonna round it up Gonna shake it up Oh, no no no, I will not lie down Turn this thing around I will not go quietly I will not lie down I will not go quietly I will not lie down I will not go quietly I will not lie down I will not lie down Well, don't you ever get lonely? Don't you ever get down? Don't you ever get tired of all the wicked tongues in this town? Oh, baby, I just wanna take you away from here I ain't no tiger I ain't no little lamb Suppose you tell me mama Who do YOU think I THINK I am? And ooh baby, don't you give a damn? Yeah I'm gonna tear it up Gonna trash it up Gonna round it up Gonna shake it up Oh baby I will not lie down Turn this thing around I will not go quietly I will not lie down I will no go quietly I will not lie down I will not lie down ----- Tryin' to find that "middle path"! "In the end, only kindness matters."

I reckon I could say the same of you! And of all of us!
 "In the end, only kindness matters."
