blind-fitter Posted July 24, 2007 Report Share Posted July 24, 2007 "The Bastard Son Of Dean Friedman" - Half Man Half Biscuit Well I heard a lovely rumour, That Bette Midler had a tumour, So gleefully I went to tell my friends. But they said it was a lie, That she wasn't going to die, "And by the way, have we got news for you!" And they told me that the man That I had always known as "Dad", Hadn't met my "Mum" when I was born. And they reckon that I am, But I hope to God I'm not, The bastard son of Dean Friedman, The bastard son of Dean Friedman. And my school-work fell behind With this bombshell on my mind. My art teacher said he understood. But he could only sympathise With the sadness in my eyes, Even though he showed me his Magritte... In the corridors of fear I would shed a lonely tear, As ridicule flew at me from both sides. And they mocked me in my mocks, And embroidered in my socks, The bastard son of Dean Friedman, The bastard son of Dean Friedman. Supercalifragilistic-Borussia Moenchengladbach And you can thank your lucky stars that you're not The bastard son of Dean Friedman, The bastard son of Dean Friedman.

skybluesky Posted July 25, 2007 Report Share Posted July 25, 2007 Bob Dylan - The Man In Me The man in me will do nearly any task, And as for compensation, there's little he would ask. Take a woman like you To get through to the man in me. Storm clouds are raging all around my door, I think to myself I might not take it any more. Take a woman like your kind To find the man in me. But, oh, what a wonderful feeling Just to know that you are near, Sets my a heart a-reeling From my toes up to my ears. The man in me will hide sometimes to keep from bein' seen, But that's just because he doesn't want to turn into some machine. Took a woman like you To get through to the man in me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Seeker Posted July 25, 2007 Report Share Posted July 25, 2007 Slide Away -- Oasis Slide away, and give it all you've got My today, fell in from the top I dream of you, and all the things you say I wonder where you are now?

Slide in baby, together we'll fly I've tried praying, but I don't know what you're saying to me Now that you're mine We'll find a way Of chasing the sun Let me be the one, that shines with you Cause in the morning, I don't know what to do We're two of a kind We'll find a way To do what we've done Let me be the one, that shines with you And we can slide away, slide away, slide away, away... Slide away, and give it all you've got My today, fell in from the top I dream of you, and all the things you say I wonder where you are now? Slide in baby, together we'll fly I've tried praying, and I know just what you're saying to me Now that you're mine We'll find a way Of chasing the sun Let me be the one that shines with you Cause in the morning when you don't know what to do We're two of a kind We'll find a way To do what we've done Oh, let me be the one That shines with you, and we can slide away... Slide away, slide away, slide away, slide away (and I wanna try now, i wanna make you mine now) I don't know, I don't care, all I know is you can take me there (Slide away...)

_Laurie_ Posted July 26, 2007 Report Share Posted July 26, 2007 I'm feelin very hippyish this week for some reason..heard this one on the radio tonight... "Ripple" ~ Grateful Dead If my words did glow with the gold of sunshine And my tunes were played on the harp unstrung, Would you hear my voice come thru the music, Would you hold it near as it were your own? It's a hand-me-down, the thoughts are broken, Perhaps they're better left unsung. I don't know, don't really care Let there be songs to fill the air. Ripple in still water, When there is no pebble tossed, Nor wind to blow. Reach out your hand if your cup be empty, If your cup is full may it be again, Let it be known there is a fountain, That was not made by the hands of men. There is a road, no simple highway, Between the dawn and the dark of night, And if you go no one may follow, That path is for your steps alone. Ripple in still water, When there is no pebble tossed, Nor wind to blow. You who choose to lead must follow But if you fall you fall alone, If you should stand then who's to guide you? If I knew the way I would take you home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skybluesky Posted July 27, 2007 Report Share Posted July 27, 2007 April Wine - Just Between You And Me Time and time again I see A love that seemed strong Was not meant to be, Broken hearts don't always mend, Left too unsure, to try love again. Just between you and me Baby I know our love will be, Just between you and me Always I know our love will be, Just between you and me Lovers often seem to say Hearts can be blind to love gone astray, Always it's the same old song, Someone's been hurt by love that's gone wrong. Just between you and me Baby I know our love will be, Just between you and me Always I know our love will be, Just between you, Just between you and me Words are sometimes hard to find, The silence can be so unkind, You always help me find my way, The love that we share, Grows stronger each day, Just between you and me Baby I know our love will be, Just between you and me Always I know our love will be, Seulement entre toi et moi Means that our love will always be Just between you and me Baby I know our love will be Just between you Just between you and me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skybluesky Posted July 27, 2007 Report Share Posted July 27, 2007 Poco - Crazy Love Tonight I'm gonna break away Just you wait and see I've never been imprisoned by A faded memory Just when I think I'm over her This broken heart will mend I hear her name and I have to cry The tears come down again CHORUS: It happens all the time This crazy love of mine Wrapped around my heart Refusing to unwind Ooh-ooh, crazy love, ah... Count the stars in the southern sky That fall without a sound And then pretend that you can't hear These teardrops coming down CHORUS Tonight I'm gonna break away Just you wait and see I've never been imprisoned by A faded memory CHORUS Tonight I'm gonna break away...

skybluesky Posted July 28, 2007 Report Share Posted July 28, 2007 This has been stuck in my head for days. Maybe posting the lyrics will remove it from my brain REO Speedwagon - Can't Fight This Feeling I can't fight this feeling any longer. And yet I'm still afraid to let it flow. What started out as friendship, Has grown stronger. I only wish I had the strength to let it show. I tell myself that I can't hold out forever. I said there is no reason for my fear. Cause I feel so secure when we're together. You give my life direction, You make everything so clear. And even as I wander, I'm keeping you in sight. You're a candle in the window, On a cold, dark winter's night. And I'm getting closer than I ever thought I might. And I can't fight this feeling anymore. I've forgotten what I started fighting for. It's time to bring this ship into the shore, And throw away the oars, forever. Cause I can't fight this feeling anymore. I've forgotten what I started fighting for. And if I have to crawl upon the floor, Come crushing through your door, Baby, I can't fight this feeling anymore. My life has been such a whirlwind since I saw you. I've been running round in circles in my mind. And it always seems that I'm following you, girl, Cause you take me to the places, That alone I'd never find. And even as I wander, I'm keeping you in sight. You're a candle in the window On a cold, dark winter's night. And I'm getting closer than I ever thought I might. And I can't fight this feeling anymore. I've forgotten what I started fighting for. It's time to bring this ship into the shore, And throw away the oars, forever. Cause I can't fight this feeling anymore. I've forgotten what I started fighting for. And if I have to crawl upon the floor, Come crashing through your door, Baby, I can't fight this feeling anymore.

Because my inside is outside My right side's on the left side Cause I'm writing to reach you now but, I might never reach you I only want to teach you, about you, but that's not you It's good to know that you are home for Christmas It's good to know that you are doing well It's good to know that you're no longer hurting It's good to know i'm feeling not so well Because my inside in outside My right side's on the left side Cause I'm writing to reach you now but I might never reach you I only want to teach you, About you, but that's not you To know it's true, but that won't do Maybe then tomorrow will be Monday And whatever's in my eye should go away Still the radio keeps playing all the usual And what's a wonderwall anyway? Because my inside in outside My right side's on the left side Cause I'm writing to reach you I might never reach you I only want to teach you, About you, but that's not you And you know it's true, but that won't do And you know it's you, I'm talking to Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tenacious_Peaches Posted July 30, 2007 Report Share Posted July 30, 2007 ^ I am so in love with this song...please read the lyrics and don't just skim over them. And So It Goes John Denver A mansion on a hill is a lovely sight to see But like any other house it’s only temporary Home is anywhere you choose to put your heart If there's no love inside, it will soon fall apart Ashes to ashes, dust into dust Buildings will crumble, bridges will rust Mountains will disappear, rivers will dry up And so it goes with everything but love You can drive around in a long limousine If you don't know where you're going, it don't mean a thing He who'd walk a mile just to hold an empty hand Knows what it means to be a wealthy man Ashes to ashes, dust into dust Palaces will crumble, bridges will rust Mountains will disappear, rivers will dry up And so it goes with everything but love Worldly treasures will all pass away There's just one thing that was put here to stay Ashes to ashes, dust into dust Kingdoms will crumble, bridges will rust Mountains will disappear, rivers will dry up And so it goes with everything but love Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

_Laurie_ Posted July 31, 2007 Report Share Posted July 31, 2007 Harvest Moon ~ Mr. Neil Young Come a little bit closer Hear what I have to say Just like children sleepin We could dream this night away. But theres a full moon risin Lets go dancin in the light We know where the musics playin Lets go out and feel the night. Because Im still in love with you I want to see you dance again Because Im still in love with you On this harvest moon. When we were strangers I watched you from afar When we were lovers I loved you with all my heart. But now its gettin late And the moon is climbin high I want to celebrate See it shinin in your eye. Because Im still in love with you I want to see you dance again Because Im still in love with you On this harvest moon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
