blind-fitter Posted February 25, 2008 Report Share Posted February 25, 2008 I'm not certain, but I've always interpreted The Cure's "In Between Days" as being about this sort of thing. Can't provide the whole lyric right now, but it's the impression I get. "And I know I was wrong when I said it was true, but there couldn't be me and be her in between, without you."

Uncle Joe Posted April 5, 2008 Report Share Posted April 5, 2008 Did You Ever Have to Make Up Your Mind Lovin' Spoonful-John Sebastian Did you ever have to make up your mind Pick up on one and leave the other behind It's not often easy and not often kind Did you ever have to make up your mind Did you ever have to finally decide Say yes to one and let the other one ride There's so many changes and tears you must hide Did you ever have to finally decide Sometimes there's one with big blue eyes, cute as a bunny With hair down to here, and plenty of money And just when you think she's that one in the world Your heart gets stolen by some mousey little girl And then you know you'd better make up your mind... Sometimes you really dig a girl the moment you kiss her And then you get distracted by her older sister When in walks her father and takes you a line And says, "You better go home, son, and make up your mind" And then you bet you'd better finally decide...

Ashley Rae Posted April 25, 2008 Report Share Posted April 25, 2008 "Greyhound bound for Nowhere" by Miranda Lambert Rain on the window makes me lonely And time keeps on passing so slowly The old man sitting next to me is falling asleep On a Greyhound bound for nowhere The sun's going down on my misery Another day gone by with broken dreams That cell-phone I hear ringing, I keep wishing it was you On a Greyhound bound for nowhere That ring that you were wearing, don't mean everything And the way that you stood staring, as you watched me roll away She loves you and you need me, but there's some things we can't share I’m on a Greyhound bound for nowhere And I'm gonna find some place I can ease my mind And try to heal my wounded pride Rain on the window and I'm still lonely And time keeps on passing so slowly You're with her and I'm alone, and you're wishing I was there I'm on a Greyhound bound for nowhere We're all on a Greyhound bound for nowhere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dappled Posted April 25, 2008 Report Share Posted April 25, 2008 The classic song with this theme must be Walk On By by Leroy Van Dyke: If I see you tomorrow on some street in town Pardon me if I don't say hello (hello) I belong to another, it wouldn't look so good To know someone I'm not supposed to know. CHORUS Just walk on by, wait on the corner I love you, but we're strangers when we meet Just walk on by, wait on the corner I love you, but we're strangers when we meet. In a dimly lit corner in a place outside of town Tonight we'll try to say goodbye again (goodbye) But I know it's not over, I'll call tomorrow night I can't let you go, so why pretend.

Justice9906 Posted October 3, 2008 Report Share Posted October 3, 2008 How about "On the Other Hand" by Randy Travis? On one hand I count the reasons, I could stay with you, And hold you close to me all night long, So many lovers games, I'd love to play with you, On that hand there's no reason why it's wrong, But on the other hand, There's a golden band, To remind me of someone, Who would not understand, On one hand I can stay, And be your lovin' man, Be the reason I must go, Is on the other hand. In your arms I feel the passion, I thought it died, When I looked into your eyes, I found myself, And when I first kissed your lips, I felt so alive, I've got to hand it to you girls, You're something else. But on the other hand, There's a golden band, To remind me of someone, Who would not understand, On one hand I can stay, And be your lovin' man, Be the reason I must go, Is on the other hand. Yeah the reason I must go, Is on the other hand. Might I also add that there are a lot of awesome songs in this forum. Really powerful songs in here. I applaud everyone's choices.

J Hill Posted October 21, 2008 Report Share Posted October 21, 2008 This pretty much seems to be the theme for about every forth country song ever written, one good recent one is: "Everytime I Hear Your Name" KEITH ANDERSON In pop/rock one of my all-time favorites is: "Almost Blue" ELVIS COSTELLO from Imperial Bedroom "...there's a girl here and she's almost you ... almost."

J Hill Posted October 22, 2008 Report Share Posted October 22, 2008 The Cars *laughing loudly* That song does bring back some ..ehh.. memories. Massivly popular, new-waveish and all... But wasn't the guy in this song not with somebody else, but, ultimately, alone? Empty-handed, his best friend had the girl he wanted, and wasnt he ..err.. left to his own devices?

Ombre Vivante Posted November 25, 2008 Report Share Posted November 25, 2008 I never really paid attention to music by Howard Jones, but "No One Is To Blame" sounds a little bit like it fits the theme (although not explicitly stating it). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gm5siz_28o0 I just like the piano bit from the song... the instrumentation sounds like Phil Collins mixed with John Cougar Mellencamp hahah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Empty-handed, his best friend had the girl he wanted, and wasnt he ..err.. left to his own devices? Not necessarily "empty-handed", then, in the strictest sense of the word?
