    Favorite Song Lyrics.

    Title says it all..

    This section only has four threads in it currently the rest seems to have been removed because not used for 30 days so I'll contribute this thread as my fill- er- up effort, lol

    I have lots but will just post two today.. One I listened to earlier...

    Lady Antebellum - Need You Now

    Picture perfect memories scattered all around the floor.
    Reaching for the phone 'cause I can't fight it anymore.

    And I wonder if I ever cross your mind?
    For me it happens all the time.

    It's a quarter after one, I'm all alone and I need you now.
    Said I wouldn't call but I've lost all control and I need you now.
    And I don't know how I can do without.
    I just need you now.

    Another shot of whiskey, can't stop looking at the door.
    Wishing you'd come sweeping in the way you did before.

    And I wonder if I ever cross your mind?
    For me it happens all the time.

    [...]

    Oh, whoa
    Guess I'd rather hurt than feel nothing at all.

    Somebody That I Used To Know ( Gotye)

    Now and then I think of when we were together
    Like when you said you felt so happy you could die
    Told myself that you were right for me
    But felt so lonely in your company
    But that was love and it's an ache I still remember

    You can get addicted to a certain kind of sadness
    Like resignation to the end, always the end
    So when we found that we could not make sense
    Well you said that we would still be friends
    But I'll admit that I was glad that it was over

    But you didn't have to cut me off
    Make out like it never happened and that we were nothing
    And I don't even need your love
    But you treat me like a stranger and that feels so rough
    No you didn't have to stoop so low
    Have your friends collect your records and then change your number
    I guess that I don't need that though
    Now you're just somebody that I used to know

    ....

    Now and then I think of all the times you screwed me over
    But had me believing it was always something that I'd done
    But I don't wanna live that way
    Reading into every word you say
    You said that you could let it go
    And I wouldn't catch you hung up on somebody that you used to know
    “If you worry about what might be, and wonder what might have been, you will ignore what is.”

    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 you're worth

    Lights will guide you home
    And ignite your bones
    And I will try to fix you
    -Coldplay

    I'd like to think I'm a mess you'd wear with pride- Band of Horses

    I felt you leaving, before you'd even gone- The Black Keys

    I'll be your black bird, darlin'
    Hangin' on your telephone wire
    Flap my wings on it
    And set your heart afire
    - Also by the Black Keys

    I'm just going to post some snippets (not the whole song), but here are some of mine...

    "Now, the days have grown to years of feeling all alone. / She can't help but wonder what she's doing wrong. / Lately, she'd try anything to turn his head. / Would it make a difference if she said.. / Buy me a rose. Call me from work. / Open a door for me; would would it hurt? / Show me you love me by the look in your eyes. / These are the little things I need the most in my life." - "Buy Me a Rose" by Kenny Rogers

    "For, diamonds do appear to be just like broke glass to me. / [...] / I missed your skin when you were East. / You clicked your heals and wished for me." - "Northern Downpour" by Panic at the Disco

    "You're just too good to be true. / I can't take my eyes off of you. / You feel like heaven to touch. / I wanna hold you so much. / So, if you feel as I feel / Please let me know that it's real. / You're just too good to be true. / I can't take my eyes off of you." - Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons (Pretty much a perfect song)

    "It's late in the evening. / She's wondering what clothes to wear. / She puts on her makeup. / And brushes her long, blonde hair. / And then she asks me / Do I look alright? / And I say yes. You look wonderful tonight." - "Wonderful Tonight" by Eric Clapton (Another perfect song)

    "Well, Slo Jim Fizz works mighty fast / When you drink it by the pitcher and not by the glass, uh-huh." - "Portland Oregon" by Loretta Lynn

    "'Cause the world don't stop / And actions speak louder. / Listen to your heart, and your heart might say / 'Everything we got, we got the hard way.'" - "The Hard Way" by Mary Chapin Carpenter (a favorite between Dave and I, although I don't listen to it anymore)

    "It took so long to change my mind. / I thought that love was a game. / I played around enough to find / That no two are ever the same. / You made me realize the love I missed. / So hot, your love I couldn't quite resist. / When it's right, the light just comes shining through." - "Caught Up in You" by .38 Special

    "You gave away the things you loved, and one of them was me." - "You're so Vain" by Carly Simon

    "Like a king without a castle / Like a queen without a throne / I'm an early morning lover / And I must be moving on." - "Goodbye Stranger" by Supertramp

    "Well, it's been building up inside of me for, oh, I don't know how long. / I don't know why, but I keep thinking something's bound to go wrong. / But she looks in my eyes and makes me realize / When she says 'Don't worry, baby.'" - "Don't Worry Baby" by The Beach Boys

    "Turn it down, you say? / Well, all I gotta tell you is time and time again / I say no, no, no, no, no, no... / Tell me not to play? / Well, all I gotta tell you when you tell me not to play / I say no, no, no, no, no, no... / So, if you ask my why I like the way I play it / There's only one thing I can say to you / I wanna rock!" - "I Wanna Rock" by Twisted Sister

    There are many more, so I'll probably post again at some point. haha

    Look, if you had one shot, or one opportunity
    To seize everything you ever wanted. one moment
    Would you capture it or just let it slip?

    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

    John Lennon


    it's harder starting over,
    than never to have changed.


    i've become so numb, i can't feel you there
    become so tired, so much more aware
    in becoming this, all I want to do, is be more like me
    and be less like you.


    i've put my trust in you
    pushed as far as I can go
    for all this
    there’s only one thing you should know

    i tried so hard
    and got so far
    but in the end
    it doesn’t even matter
    i had to fall
    to lose it all
    but in the end
    it doesn’t even matter

    some linkin park lyrics
    When I tell the truth, it is not for the sake of convincing those who do not know it, but for the sake of defending those that do.
    William Blake

    Today my favorite song lyrics are...

    "I'm miles from where you are
    I lay down on the cold ground
    And I, I pray that something picks me up
    And lays me down in your warm arms"
    -Snow Patrol

    we've come too far to give up who we are
    so let's raise the bar and our cups to the stars

    "I Hope You Dance"


    I hope you never lose your sense of wonder,
    You get your fill to eat but always keep that hunger,
    May you never take one single breath for granted,
    GOD forbid love ever leave you empty handed,
    I hope you still feel small when you stand beside the ocean,
    Whenever one door closes I hope one more opens,
    Promise me that you'll give faith a fighting chance,
    And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance.

    I hope you dance...

    I hope you never fear those mountains in the distance,
    Never settle for the path of least resistance
    Livin' might mean takin' chances but they're worth takin',
    Lovin' might be a mistake but it's worth makin',
    Don't let some hell bent heart leave you bitter,
    When you come close to sellin' out reconsider,
    Give the heavens above more than just a passing glance,
    And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance.

    The Beatles

    I like Beatles lyrics a lot. They teach about life so much in few simple words. Like -
    "Life is too short for pussing and fighting my friend."

    "And in the end the love you take is equal to love you make"

    Leona Lewis songs are cool too

    I feel it on my skin, I wanna drink you in
    Doubt kills more dreams than failure ever will

    I've been crawling on my belly
    Clearing out what could've been
    I've been wallowing in my own chaotic
    Insecure delusion
    I want to feel the change consume me
    Feel the outside turning in
    I want to feel the metamorphosis and
    Cleansing I've endured in
    My shadow

    And so it is
    Just like you said it would be
    Life goes easy on me
    Most of the time
    And so it is
    The shorter story
    No love, no glory
    No hero in her sky

    - The Blower's Daughter -



    When your education X-Ray
    Cannot see under my skin
    I won't tell you a damn thing
    That I could not tell my friends
    Roaming through this darkness
    I'm alive but I'm alone
    Part of me is fighting this
    But part of me is gone

    - When I'm Gone -


    I wanted to find somewhere to hide
    And I opened up and left those fears inside
    And I wanted to be anyone else
    Only to find that there was noone there but me

    But I woke up to real life
    And I realised its not worth running from anymore
    When there was nowhere left to hide I found out
    That nothings real here but I wont stop now until I find a better part of me.

    I let those hard days get me down
    And all the things I hate got in my way
    I could of screamed without a sound
    I found myself silenced by those things they say.

    - The Real Life -


    A hundred days have made me older
    Since the last time that I saw your pretty face
    A thousand lies have made me colder
    And I don't think I can look at this the same

    But all the miles that separate
    Disappear now when I'm dreaming of your face

    I'm here without you, baby
    But you're still on my lonely mind
    I think about you, baby
    And I dream about you all the time
    I'm here without you, baby

    But you're still with me in my dreams
    And tonight it's only you and me, yeah.

    - Here Without You -



    I took a walk around the world
    To ease my troubled mind
    I left my body lying somewhere
    In the sands of time
    But I watched the world float
    To the dark side of the moon

    I feel there is nothing I can do

    And I stood arrow straight
    Unencumbered by the weight
    Of all these hustlers and their schemes
    I stood proud, I stood tall
    High above it all
    I still believed in my dreams

    Like a rock - Bob Seger

    "A ship on a voyage could sink in the deep.
    A ship in the shallow could crack on the reef.
    But only ashore is it safe where it is built
    And only ashore is it useless.

    Imagine the world without romance. Imagine the world without music.
    Imagine the world without someone imagining..."

    with the lights out, it's less dangerous
    here we are now, entertain us
    i feel stupid and contagious
    here we are now, entertain us
    a mulatto
    an albino
    a mosquito
    my libido
    yay!
    When I tell the truth, it is not for the sake of convincing those who do not know it, but for the sake of defending those that do.
