Favourite Song Lyrics

lovebird4111996

I have died every day waiting for you
Darling, don't be afraid I have loved you
For a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more

Time stands still
Beauty in all she is
I will be brave
I will not let anything take away
What's standing in front of me
Every breath
Every hour has come to this

One step closer

I love that part from Black by Pearl Jam

"...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, can't it be mine?"

Great line. Devastating the way he delivers it. Whole song, really.

Leonard Cohen's Hallelujah:
Now I've heard there was a secret chord
That David played, and it pleased the Lord
But you don't really care for music, do you?

It goes like this
The fourth, the fifth
The minor fall, the major lift
The baffled king composing Hallelujah

Could do this whole thread with just Leonard Cohen lyrics, so far as I'm concerned...

So here are some of my favorites of his, from his first hit, Suzanne:

And just when you mean to tell her
That you have no love to give her
Then she gets you on her wavelength
And she lets the river answer
That you've always been her lover
And you want to travel with her
And you want to travel blind
And you know that she will trust you
For you've touched her perfect body with your mind.


Oh, and nothing like an MFP thread to randomly remind me just how much I HATE Rhianna (her music, that is. I'm sure she's a wonderful human being otherwise)...
Apologies to all Rhianna fans...

Oh, Suzanne.

But you left out the "tea and oranges" part. I love that because it sets an image for the song in my head.

I was tempted to post the whole thing, of course. Perhaps I snipped too soon in search of brevity...

I would've liked you to have been deep frozen too
and waiting still as fresh in your flesh for my return to Earth
But your father refused to sign the forms to freeze you
Let's see you'd be about 60 now,
and long dead by the time I return to Earth
My time held dreams were full of you,
as you were when I left; still underage
Your android replica is playing up again, it's no joke
When she comes she moans another's name

Being a clone, I am not alone
Every fibre of my flesh and bone is identical to the others
Everything I say is in the same tone
as my test tube brother's voice
There is no choice between us,
If you had ever seen us,
You'd rejoice in your uniqueness
and consider every weakness something special of your own
Being a clone, I have no flaws to identify
Even this doggerel that pours from my pen,
has just been written by another twenty telepathic men,
Oh, word for word, it says:
"Oh, for the wings of any bird, other than a battery hen".

Slight break from song lyrics themselves to poetry....does anyone know of Shane Koyczan? Brilliant (Canadian - of course) slam poet. You tube him if you LOVE lyrics.

Cheater, cheater, where'd you meet her? (Joey & Rory)

Good break-up song here are the last couple of refrains.......






Loser, loser, hope you love her
Cause you're stuck with her now
Take your sorry butt, and load up all your stuff
And get the hell out of my house

But I just wish you'd tell me
This one thing before you go
Cheater, cheater, where'd you meet that
No good white trash ho?

Now I'm not one to judge someone
That I ain't never met
But to lay your hands on a married man
Is 'bout as low as a gal can get

Hey I wish her well as she rots in hell
And you can tell her I said so
Cheater, cheater, where'd you meet
That no good white trashed ho?

Yeah I'd just wish you'd tell me
This one thing before you'd go
Cheater, cheater, where'd you meet that
Low down, uptown, slept with every guy around
Pressed on eyelashed, no good white trash ho!?

So raise it up, and let's propose a toast
to the thing that hurts you most.

It's your last cup of sorrow.
What can you say? Finish it today.
It's your last cup of sorrow.
So think of me, and get on your way.

It's My Life
Song by Bon Jovi

This ain't a song for the broken-hearted
No silent prayer for the faith-departed
I ain't gonna be just a face in the crowd
You're gonna hear my voice

When I shout it out loud

It's my life
It's now or never
I ain't gonna live forever
I just want to live while I'm alive
(It's my life)
My heart is like an open highway
Like Frankie said I did it my way
I just want to live while I'm alive
It's my life

This is for the ones who stood their ground
It's for Tommy and Gina who never backed down
Tomorrow's getting harder, make no mistake
Luck ain't enough
You've got to make your own breaks

It's my life
And it's now or never
I ain't gonna live forever
I just want to live while I'm alive
(It's my life)
My heart is like an open highway
Like Frankie said I did it my way
I just want to live while I'm alive
It's my life

You better stand tall when they're calling you out
Don't bend, don't break, baby, don't back down

It's my life
And it's now or never
I ain't gonna live forever
I just want to live while I'm alive
(It's my life)
My heart is like an open highway
Like Frankie said I did it my way
I just want to live while I'm alive
(It's my life)

And it's now or never
I ain't gonna live forever
I just want to live while I'm alive
(It's my life)
My heart is like an open highway
Like Frankie said I did it my way
I just want to live while I'm alive
(It's my life)
