Lambchop Flansburgh Posted April 14, 2005 Report Share Posted April 14, 2005 Oh, and along the same lines there's "Missing You" by John Waite. Great song, and it also has that whole ironic denial of one's feelings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnyguitar Posted April 14, 2005 Report Share Posted April 14, 2005 This is more about being with someone you shouldn't....Del Amitri are masters of the poignant longing stuff. Check out Driving With Your Brakes on or Running Shoes...meanwhile Be My Downfall. The bus is pulling out and I guess I?d better go Before I make a grave mistake and let my feelings show And twenty miles away she waits alone for me But when I try to picture her you?re the one I see And in another situation I could put up a fight But you will be my downfall tonight So the night is coming down, drowning us in blue And it all points towards the things we know we shouldn?t do And as I look at you and I fall under your spell Well I know I should be thinking of her lying there herself And when faced with temptation you know a man should stand and fight But you will be my downfall tonight Be my downfall be my great regret be the one girl That I?ll never forget Be my undoing be my slow road to ruin tonight So the bus is pulling out and I?m grounded here with you And I want to say the sweet things babe I?ve always wanted to So tell me now the tail-lights have gone out of sight Baby won?t you be my downfall once again tonight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnnyguitar Posted April 14, 2005 Report Share Posted April 14, 2005 So far away, doesn't anybody stay in one place anymore? It would be so fine to see your face at my door Doesn't help to know you're just time away Long ago I reached for you and there you stood Holding you again could only do me good How I wish I could, but you're so far away One more song about movin' along the highway Can't say much of anything that's new If I could only work this life out my way I'd rather spend it bein' close to you. But you're so far away, doesn't anybody stay in one place anymore? It would be so fine to see your face at my door Doesn't help to know you're so far away Yay-uh-ay-eee Oh, so far away Travelin' around sure gets me down and lonely Nothin' else to do but close my mind I sure hope the road don't come to own me There's so many dreams I've yet to fin-ind But you're so far away, doesn't anybody stay in one place anymore? It would be so fine to see your face at my door And it doesn't help to know you're so far away Yay-uh-ay-eee Oh, so far away Yay, you're so faaaaaar away Carole King....probably the best.....ever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ess42304 Posted April 16, 2005 Report Share Posted April 16, 2005 This is sort of a song like that... I Can't Make You Love Me written by Mike Reid and Allen Shamblin as performed by Bonnie Raitt Turn down the lights Turn down the bed Turn down these voices inside my head Lay down with me Tell me no lies Just hold me close, don't patronize Don't patronize me Cause I can't make you love me if you don't You can't make your heart feel something it won't Here in the dark in these final hours I will lay down my heart And I'll feel the power but you won't No, you won't Cause I can't make you love me if you don't I'll close my eyes then I won't see the love you don't feel when you're holding me Morning will come and I'll do what's right just give me till then to give up this fight and I will give up this fight Cause I can't make you love me if you don't You can't make your heart feel something it won't Here in the dark in these final hours I will lay down my heart And I'll feel the power but you won't No, you won't Cause I can't make you love me if you dont I love this one...so sad He Stopped Loving Her Today Sung by: George Jones Written by: Bob Braddock and Claude Putman, Jr. He said "I'll love you till I die", she told him "You'll forget in time" As the years went slowly by, she still preyed upon his mind He kept her picture on his wall, went half-crazy now and then He still loved her through it all, hoping she'd come back again Kept some letters by his bed dated nineteen sixty-two He had underlined in red every single "I love you" I went to see him just today, oh but I didn't see no tears All dressed up to go away, first time I'd seen him smile in years He stopped loving her today They placed a wreath upon his door And soon they'll carry him away He stopped loving her today (Spoken) You know, she came to see him one last time. Aww, 'n' we all wondered if she would. And it kept runnin' through my mind "this time he's over her for good." He stopped loving her today They placed a wreath upon his door And soon they'll carry him away He stopped loving her today Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meeeee Posted February 18, 2016 Report Share Posted February 18, 2016 About a guy, everytime you try to go with him it just doesn't work out..everyday he goes through you're mind. Just every little thing doesn't want you two together and so therefore you can never be together but you wanna be with them so bad.I've been through the same with a woman that I genuinely love unconditionally and would lay down my life for.... we had the hardest time trying to even had a friendship for the longest time because every time we had something figured out life threw a curve ball... the thing about love is that if your relationship can't handle what life throws at you it bot who you are meant to be with... if you tackle life curves together and come out stronger there is nothing that can hold you apart it's not* I wish yu the best with your realand my only advice is if you want it to work you have to want your relationship as much as your next breath Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
