"Bittersweet Symphony" THE VERVE

'Cause it's a bittersweet symphony, this life
Try to make ends meet
You're a slave to money then you die
I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down
You know the one that takes you to the places
where all the veins meet yeah,

No change, I can change
I can change, I can change
But I'm here in my mold
I am here in my mold
But I'm a million different people
from one day to the next
I can't change my mold
No, no, no, no, no

Well I never pray
But tonight I'm on my knees yeah
I need to hear some sounds that recognize the pain in me, yeah
I let the melody shine, let it cleanse my mind, I feel free now
But the airways are clean and there's nobody singing to me now

No change, I can change
I can change, I can change
But I'm here in my mold
I am here in my mold
And I'm a million different people
from one day to the next
I can't change my mold
No, no, no, no, no
I can't change
I can't change

'Cause it's a bittersweet symphony, this life
Try to make ends meet
Try to find some money then you die
I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down
You know the one that takes you to the places
where all the things meet yeah

You know I can change, I can change
I can change, I can change
But I'm here in my mold
I am here in my mold
And I'm a million different people
from one day to the next
I can't change my mold
No, no, no, no, no

I can't change my mold
no, no, no, no, no,
I can't change
Can't change my body,
no, no, no

I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down
I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down
Been down
Ever been down
Ever been down
Ever been down
Ever been down
Have you ever been down?
Have you've ever been down?

... Using it at midnight as she presses the accelerator on her way to New York - leaving her sub and past behind, and going off to meet her sub sister ... her dying Mother, her only dominant influence, and meeting the balance/ a gal - its complicated but the lyric - melody and beat are amazing and exciting. .... are good and influencial - I have a huge music influence when I write stories though ... no music when writing poetry.

Ok got all excited - did you want the song?

Is that the lyric?

History of Us

I went all the way to Paris to forget your face
captured in stained glass, young lives long since passed
statues of lovers every place
I went all across the continent to relieve this restless love
I walked through the ruins, icons of glory
smashed by the bombs from above

so we must love while these moments are still called today
take part in the pain of this passion play
stretching our youth as we must, until we are ashes to dust
until time makes history of us

jeu de paume's full of faces knowing peace, knowing strife
leisure and toil, still it's canvas and oil
there's just no medium for life
in the midst of the rubble I felt a sense of rebirth
in a dusty cathedral the living god called
and I prayed for my life here on earth

so we must love while these moments are still called today
take part in the pain of this passion play
stretching our youth as we must, until we are ashes to dust
until time makes history of us

there are mountains in Switzerland, brilliant cold as they stand
from my hotel room, watching the half-moon
bleeding its light like a lamb
and the town is illumined, its tiny figures are fast asleep
and it dawns on me the time is upon me
to return to the flock I must keep

so we must love while these moments are still called today
take part in the pain of this passion play
stretching our youth as we must, until we are ashes to dust
until time makes history of us

I Can' Help Myself ~ SugarPie HoneyBunch

Various Artist~


Sugarpie honeybunch
You know that i love you
I can't help myself
I love you and nobody else
In and out my life
You come and you go
Leaving just your picture behind
And i kissed it a thousand times

When you snap your fingers
Or wink your eye
I come a running to you
I'm tied to your, baby
And there's nothing i can do
Ooh, sugar

Sugarpie honeybunch
I'm weaker than a girl should be
I can't help myself
I'm a fool in love you see
Wanna tell you i don't love you
Tell you that we're through

And i've tried
But everytime i see your face
I get up all choked up inside

When i call your name, boy
It starts the flame burning in my heart
Tearin' it all apart
No matter how i try
My love i cannot hide

Sugarpie honeybunch
You now that i'm weak for you
I can't help myself
I love you and nobody else

Sugarpie honeybunch
Do you anything you ask me to
I can't help myself
I want you and nobody else

Sugarpie honeybunch
You know that i love you
I can't help myself

I thought this was one of the sexiest songs...


Leonard Cohen - Dance Me To The End Of Love

Dance me to your beauty with a burning violin
Dance me through the panic 'til I'm gathered safely in
Lift me like an olive branch and be my homeward dove
Dance me to the end of love
Dance me to the end of love

Oh let me see your beauty when the witnesses are gone
Let me feel you moving like they do in Babylon
Show me slowly what I only know the limits of
Dance me to the end of love
Dance me to the end of love

Dance me to the wedding now, dance me on and on
Dance me very tenderly and dance me very long
We're both of us beneath our love, we're both of us above
Dance me to the end of love
Dance me to the end of love

Dance me to the children who are asking to be born
Dance me through the curtains that our kisses have outworn
Raise a tent of shelter now, though every thread is torn
Dance me to the end of love

Dance me to your beauty with a burning violin
Dance me through the panic till I'm gathered safely in
Touch me with your naked hand or touch me with your glove
Dance me to the end of love
Dance me to the end of love
Dance me to the end of love

The Last Worthless Evening

I know you broke up with him
And your heart's still on the shelf
It's been over two years for me
And I'm still not quite myself
You can't be with someone new
And you can't go back to him
You're beginning to realize
That it's sink or swim

I see you around sometimes
And my heart just melts
You're lookin' like if you had your wish
You'd be somewhere else
And it just breaks my heart
To see you here this way
Someday I'll get the nerve
To walk up to you and say

This is the last worthless evening
That you'll have to spend
Just gimme a chance
To show you how to love again
This is the last worthless evening
That you'll have to spend
'Cause I'll be there
When your broken heart is on the mend

Every night it's the same old crowd
in smokey rooms
You catch a faint glimpse of love sometimes
But it never blooms
I've been around this block a time or two
And I've made some big mistakes
But girl I promise you, I promise you

This is the last worthless evening
That you'll have to spend
Just gimme a chance
To show you how to love again
This is the last worthless evening
that you'll have to spend
'Cause it won't be long
'Till your little heart is on the mend

People inside their houses
with the shades pulled down

God knows, we could use some romance
in this sleepy bedroom town
I know you're still afraid to rush into anything
But there're just so many summers
And just so many springs

And this is the last worthless evening
That you'll have to spend, baby
Just gimme a chance, gimme a chance
To show you love again
This is the last worthless evening
That you'll have to spend 'cause it won't be long
'Til your little heart is on the mend

That you'll have to spend
Just gimme a chance to show you how
to love again
This is the last worthless evening
That you'll have to spend 'cause it won't be long
'Til your little heart is on the mend

 

[CharleyH]

I've been calling her AngieDomme for a long time, haven't I kid?

Is love so fragile...
And the heart so hollow
Shatter with words...
Impossible to follow
You're saying i'm fragile... i try not to be
I search only... for something i can't see

I have my own life... and i am stronger
Than you know
But i carry this feeling
When you walked into my house
That you won't be walking out the door
Still i carry this feeling
When you walked into my house
That you won't be walking out the door

Lovers forever... face to face
My city or mountains
Stay with me stay
I need you to love me
I need you today
Give to me your leather...
Take from me... my lace

You in the moonlight
With your sleepy eyes
Could you ever love a man like me

And you were right
When i walked into your house
I knew i'd never want to leave
Sometimes i'm a strong man
Sometimes cold and scared
And sometimes i cry
But that time i saw you
I knew with you to light my nights
Somehow i'd get by
First time i saw you
I knew with you to light my nights
Somehow i would get by

Lovers forever... face to face
My city or mountains
Stay with me stay
I need you to love me
I need you today
Give to me your leather...
Take from me... my lace

Lovers forever... face to face
My city or mountains
Stay with me stay
I need you to love me
I need you to stay
Give to me your leather
Take from me... my lace
Take from me... my lace
Take from me... my lace

The music that goes with this song is just perfect.
I love this song ... music.
Touching and just dang goood~!!

Did Not

'Twas a new feeling - something more

Than we had dared to own before,

Which then we hid not;

We saw it in each other's eye,

And wished, in every half-breathed sigh,

To speak, but did not.



She felt my lips' impassioned touch -

'Twas the first time I dared so much,

And yet she chid not;

But whispered o'er my burning brow,

'Oh, do you doubt I love you now?'

Sweet soul! I did not.



Warmly I felt her bosom thrill,

I pressed it closer, closer still,

Though gently bid not;

Till - oh! the world hath seldom heard

Of lovers, who so nearly erred,

And yet, who did not.

Thomas Moore

 

[Angeline]

I've been calling her AngieDomme for a long time, haven't I kid?

Yes you have, but do you listen to me?

No one does!

Well one, but he argues a lot...

When We Two Parted

When we two parted
In slience and tears,
Half broken-hearted,
To sever for years,
Pale grew thy cheek and cold,
Colder thy kiss;
Truly that hour foretold
Sorrow to this!

The dew of the morning
Sunk chill on my brow;
It felt like the warning
Of what I feel now.
Thy vows are all broken,
And light is thy fame:
I hear thy name spoken
And share in it's shame.

They name thee before me,
A knell to mine ear;
A shudder comes o'er me-
Why wert thou so dear?
They know not I knew thee
Who knew thee too well;
How long shall I rue thee
Too deeply to tell.

In secret we met:
In silence I grieve
That thy heart could forget,
Thy spirit deceive.
If I should meet thee
After long years,
How should I greet thee?-
With silence and tears.

Lord Byron

Stanzas for Music

There be none of Beauty's daughters
With a magic like thee;
And like music on the waters
Is thy sweet voice to me:
When, as if its sound were causing
The charmed ocean's pausing,
The waves lie still and gleaming,
And the lull'd winds seem dreaming:
And the midnight moon is weaving
Her bright chain o'er the deep;
Whose breast is gently heaving,
As an infant's asleep:
So the spirit bows before thee,
To listen and adore thee;
With a full but soft emotion,
Like the swell of Summer's ocean.

Lord Byron

Just for fun! lol

Dominated Love Slave
I want to be your dominated love slave
I want to be the one that takes the pain
You can spank me when I do not behave
mack me in the forehead with a chain

'Cause I love feeling dirty
And I love feeling cheap
And I love it when you hurt me
So drive those staples deep

I want you to slap me and call me naughty
Put a belt slander against my skin
I want to feel pain all over my body
Can't wait to be punished for my sins

GREEN DAY lyrics - "Boulevard Of Broken Dreams"


I walk a lonely road
The only one that I have ever known
Don't know were it goes
But it's home to me and I walk alone
I walk this empty street
On the Boulevard of broken dreams
Were the city sleeps
And I'm the only one and I walk alone
I walk alone I walk alone
I walk alone and I walk a-

My shadows the only one that walks beside me
My shallow hearts the only thing that's beating
Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
'Till then I'll walk alone

Ah..ah..

I'm walking down the line
That divides me somewhere in my mind
On the border line of the edge
And where I walk alone
Read between the lines
What's fucked up and everything's alright
Check my vital signs to know I'm still alive
And I walk alone
I walk alone I walk alone
I walk alone and I walk a-

My shadows the only one that walks beside me
My shallow hearts the only thing that's beating
Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
'Till then I'll walk alone

Ah..ah..
I walk alone and I walk a-

I walk this empty street
On the Boulevard of broken dreams
Were the city sleeps
And I'm the only one and I walk a-

My shadows the only one that walks beside me
My shallow hearts the only thing that's beating
Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
'Till then I'll walk alone

Hearts and Bones

One and one-half wandering Jews
Free to wander wherever they choose
Are travelling together
In the Sangre de Cristo
The Blood of Christ Mountains
Of New Mexico
On the last leg of the journey
They started a long time ago
The arc of a love affair
Rainbows in the high desert air
Mountain passes slipping into stones
Hearts and bones
Hearts and bones
Hearts and bones

Thinking back to the season before
Looking back through the cracks in the door
Two people were married
The act was outrageous
The bride was contagious
She burned like a bride
These events may have had some effect
On the man with the girl by his side
The arc of a love affair
His hands rolling down her hair
Love like lightning shaking till it moans
Hearts and bones
Hearts and bones
Hearts and bones

And whoa whoa whoa
She said:
Why?
Why don't we drive through the night
We'll wake up down in Mexico
Oh I
I don't know nothin' about nothin' about
No Mexico
And tell me why
Why won't you love me
For who I am
Where I am
He said:
'Cause that's not the way the world is baby
This is how I love you, baby
This is how I love you, baby

One and one-half wandering Jews
Return to their natural courses
To resume old acquaintances
Step out occasionally
And speculate who had been damaged the most
Easy time will determine if these consolations
Will be their reward
The arc of a love affair
Waiting to be restored
You take two bodies and you twirl them into one
Their hearts and their bones
And they won't come undone
Hearts and bones
Hearts and bones
Hearts and bones
Hearts and bones

SUPPOSED TO LOVE WORDS


Isn't that what a Poet does?
But I've always seen words as adversaries,
savvy and reticent, resisting arrest,
searching for the far neurons where they can hide
unsummoned for eternity,
lazy and unmotivated.

It's only ideas that I remember, that hound me
like soldiers, giving a little butt with their heel
or arms, threatening
that they've only come this once
and if not put to paper, will leave
with some acre of brain and unused words.

I want to love words like music,
but I only see straining letters
wracking up on the page
as I pray something real might result.

If I write imagining an audience,
would ever read this,
all I can summon is _______________

Crazy
Crazy for feeling so lonely
I'm crazy
Crazy for feeling so blue

I knew
You'd love me as long as you wanted
And then someday
You'd leave me for somebody new

Worry
Why do i let myself worry
Wond'rin'
What in the world did i do

Crazy
For thinking that my love could hold you
I'm crazy for tryin'
Crazy for cryin'
And i'm crazy
For lovin' you

Crazy
For thinking that my love could hold you
I'm crazy for tryin'
Crazy for cryin'
And i'm crazy
For lovin' you

Title: How Deep Is Your Love



I know your eyes in the morning sun
I feel you touch me in the pouring rain
And the moment that you wander far from me
I wanna feel you in my arms again

And you come to me on a summer breeze
Keep me warm in your love and then softly leave
And it's me you need to show

How deep is your love
I really need to learn
'cause we're living in a world of fools

Breaking us down
When they all should let us be
We belong to you and me

I believe in you
You know the door to my very soul
You're the light in my deepest darkest hour
You're my saviour when i fall
And you may not think
I care for you
When you know down inside
That i really do
And it's me you need to show

How deep is your love
I really need to learn
'cause we're living in a world of fools
Breaking us down
When they all should let us be
We belong to you and me

How deep is your love
I really need to learn
'cause we're living in a world of fools
Breaking us down
When they all should let us be
We belong to you and me

Will someone else tell me they like Janis Ian?

IN THE WINTER
(Janis Ian)

The days are okay
I watch the TV in the afternoon
if I get lonely
the sound of other voices
other rooms are near to me
I'm not afraid

The operator
she tells the time
it's good for a laugh
There's always radio
And for a dime I can
talk to God, dial a prayer
are you there,
do you care
Are you there?

And in the winter
extra blankets for the cold
Fix the heater, getting old
I am wiser now, you know
and still as big a fool
concerning you

I met your friend
She's very nice, what can I say?
It was an accident
I never dreamed we'd meet again
This way - you're looking well
I'm not afraid

You have a lovely home
Just like a picture
No, I live alone
I found it easier
You must remember how
I never liked the party life
Up all night, lovely wife
You have a lovely wife

And in the winter
extra blankets for the cold
Fix the heater, getting old
You are with her now, I know
I'll live alone forever
Not together now

Untitled

I loved you; even now I may confess,

Some embers of my love their fire retain;

But do not let it cause you more distress,

I do not want to sadden you again.

Hopeless and tonguetied, yet I loved you dearly

With pangs the jealous and the timid know;

So tenderly I loved you, so sincerely,

I pray God grant another love you so.

Title: I Don't Want To Miss A Thing



I could stay awake just to hear you breathing
Watch you smile while you are sleeping
While you're far away and dreaming
I could spend my life in this sweet surrender
I could stay lost in this moment forever
Well, every moment spent with you
Is a moment I treasure

I don't wanna close my eyes
I don't wanna fall asleep
'Cause I'd miss you, baby
And I don't wanna miss a thing
'Cause even when I dream of you
The sweetest dream would never do
I'd still miss you, baby
And I don't wanna miss a thing

Lying close to you
Feeling your heart beating
And I'm wondering what you're dreaming
Wondering if it's me you're seeing
Then I kiss your eyes and thank God we're together
And I just wanna stay with you
In this moment forever, forever and ever

I don't wanna close my eyes
I don't wanna fall asleep
'Cause I'd miss you, baby
And I don't wanna miss a thing
'Cause even when I dream of you
The sweetest dream would never do


I'd still miss you, baby
And I don't wanna miss a thing
I don't wanna miss one smile
I don't wanna miss one kiss
Well, I just wanna be with you
Right here with you, just like this
I just wanna hold you close
Feel your heart so close to mine
And just stay here in this moment
For all the rest of time

Don't wanna close my eyes
Don't wanna fall asleep
'Cause I'd miss you, baby
And I don't wanna miss a thing
'Cause even when I dream of you
The sweetest dream would never do
'Cause I'd still miss you, baby
And I don't wanna miss a thing

I don't wanna close my eyes
I don't wanna fall asleep
'Cause I'd miss you, baby
And I don't wanna miss a thing
'Cause even when I dream of you
The sweetest dream would never do
I'd still miss you, baby

And I don't wanna miss a thing
Don't wanna close my eyes
Don't wanna fall asleep, yeah
I don't wanna miss a thing
I don't wanna miss a thing

Title: When I Close My Eyes

(mark alan springer/nettie musick)



There's so many things
I didn't say
And even though
It may be too late
I want you to know
I still love you so
Every car i meet
Looks like your car
Every movie i see
You play the leading part
You're on my mind
Can't leave you behind

When i close my eyes
You're all i see
In the dark of night
You're in my dreams
Throughout the day
You're easy to find
You're always there
When i close my eyes

In my mind i know
You're far away
But here in my heart
Nothing has changed
I'm still holdin' you
Like i used to
On a busy street
In a crowded room
Wherever i go
It's just me and you
Together again
Girl it never ends

When i close my eyes
You're all i see
In the dark of night
You're in my dreams
Throughout the day
You're easy to find
You're always there
When i close my eyes

You're always there
When i close my eyes
