    My Dedication to someone I had to say Goodbye to :'(

    "My Wish"

    I hope the days come easy and the moments pass slow
    And each road leads you where you want to go
    And if you’re faced with the choice and you have to choose
    I hope you choose the one that means the most to you
    And if one door opens to another door closed
    I hope you keep on walkin’ ‘til you find the window
    If it’s cold outside, show the world the warmth of your smile
    But more than anything, more than anything

    My wish for you
    Is that this life becomes all that you want it to
    Your dreams stay big, your worries stay small
    You never need to carry more than you can hold
    And while you’re out there gettin’ where you’re gettin’ to
    I hope you know somebody loves you
    And wants the same things too
    Yeah, this is my wish

    I hope you never look back but you never forget
    All the ones who love you
    And the place you left
    I hope you always forgive and you never regret
    And you help somebody every chance you get
    Oh, you find God’s grace in every mistake
    And always give more than you take
    But more than anything, yeah more than anything

    This is my wish
    I hope you know somebody loves you
    May all your dreams stay big

    This song has always transfixed me, I can still never completely figure it out.

    There must be some kind of way outta here
    Said the joker to the thief
    There's too much confusion
    I can't get no relief
    Business men, they drink my wine
    Plowman dig my earth
    None were level on the mind
    Nobody up at his word
    Hey, hey
    No reason to get excited
    The thief he kindly spoke
    There are many here among us
    Who feel that life is but a joke
    But, uh, but you and I, we've been through that
    And this is not our fate
    So let us stop talkin' falsely now
    The hour's getting late
    All along the watchtower
    Princes kept the view
    While all the women came and went
    Barefoot servants, too
    Outside in the cold distance
    A wildcat did growl
    Two riders were approaching
    And the wind began to howl

    I love the BSG rendition.

    "Change is a powerful thing, people are powerful bein's
    Tryin' to find the power in me to be faithful
    Change is a powerful thing, I feel it comin' in me
    Maybe by the time Summer's done
    I'll be able to be honest, capable
    Of holdin' you in my arms without lettin' you fall
    When I don't feel beautiful or stable
    Maybe it's enough to just be where we are because"

    All the world's indeed a stage
    And we are merely players
    Performers and portrayers
    Each another's audience
    Outside the gilded cage

    (Rush - Limelight)

    We Shall Be Free - Garth Brooks


    This ain't comin' from no prophet
    Just an ordinary man
    When I close my eyes I see
    The way this world shall be
    When we all walk hand in hand

    When the last child cries for a crust of bread
    When the last man dies for just words that he said
    When there's shelter over the poorest head
    We shall be free

    When the last thing we notice is the color of skin
    And the first thing we look for is the beauty within
    When the skies and the oceans are clean again
    Then we shall be free

    We shall be free
    We shall be free
    Stand straight, walk proud
    'Cause we shall be free
    When we're free to love anyone we choose
    When this world's big enough for all different views
    When we all can worship from our own kind of pew
    Then we shall be free
    We shall be free

    We shall be free
    Have a little faith
    Hold out
    'Cause we shall be free

    And when money talks for the very last time
    And nobody walks a step behind
    When there's only one race and that's mankind
    Then we shall be free

    We shall be free
    We shall be free
    Stand straight, walk proud, have a little faith, hold out
    We shall be free

    We shall be free
    We shall be free
    Stand straight, have a little faith

    We shall be free

    Bravado - Rush

    If we burn our wings
    Flying too close to the sun
    If the moment of glory
    Is over before it's begun
    If the dream is won
    Though everything is lost
    We will pay the price
    But we will not count the cost

    When the dust has cleared
    And victory denied
    A summit too lofty
    River a little too wide
    If we keep our pride
    Though paradise is lost
    We will pay the price
    But we will not count the cost

    And if the music stops
    There's only the sound of the rain
    All the hope and glory
    All the sacrifice in vain
    (And) If love remains
    Though everything is lost
    We will pay the price
    But we will not count the cost

    Quick to judge, quick to anger.
    Slow to understand.
    Ignorance and prejudice
    And fear walk hand in hand.

    Now in the queues at immigration, in the border zone
    We are your *kitten* children, all coming home
    And every day you try to build a higher wall
    Every day you try to build a higher wall
    But your money cannot stop us
    And you violence cannot stop us
    No you will never stop us with your higher wall

    (New Model Army - Higher Wall)

    DMB- Stay or Leave

    Maybe different but remember
    Winters warm where you and i
    Kissing whiskey by the fire 
    With the snow outside
    And when the summer comes
    In the river
    Swims at midnight
    Shiver cold
    Touch the bottom
    You and I
    With muddy toes

    Stay or leave
    I want you not to go
    But you should
    It was good as good goes
    Stay or leave
    I want you not to go
    But you did

    Wake up naked drinking coffee
    Making plans to change the world
    While the world is changing us
    It was good good love
    You used to laugh under the covers
    Maybe not so often now
    But the way I used to laugh with you
    Was loud and hard

    Stay or leave
    I want you not to go
    But you should
    It was good as good goes
    Stay or leave
    I want you not to go
    But you did

    So what to do
    With the rest of the day's afternoon hey
    Isn't it strange how we change
    Everything we did
    Did I do all that i should

    That I coulda done

    Remember we used to dance
    And everyone wanted to be
    You and me
    I want to be too
    What day is this
    Besides the day you left me
    What day is this
    Besides the day you went

    So what to do
    With the rest of the day's afternoon hey
    Well isn't it strange how we change
    Everything we did
    Did I do all that I could

    Remember we used to dance
    And everyone wanted to be you and me
    I want to be too
    What day is this
    Besides the day you went babe
    What day is this

    In the thunderin' rain
    You stare into my eyes
    I can feel your hands
    Moving up my thighs
    Skirt around my waist
    Wall against my face
    I can feel your lips
    I don't want to stop just because
    People walkin' by are watchin' us
    I don't give a damn what they think
    I want you now
    I don't want to stop just because
    You feel so good inside of my love
    I'm not gonna stop no no no
    I want you all i want to say is
    Any time, and any place
    I don't care who's around
    Any time, and any place
    I don't care who's around
    ....

    Janet Jackson - Anytime Anyplace

    Hot song.
