Silly Love Songs

I may have posted this before if I have please bear with me, I tend to drag this one out on occasion as a reminder not to fall back into old patterns


Happy


Fiona Lewis


Someone once told me that you have to choose
What you win or lose
You can't have everything
Don't you take chances
Might feel the pain
Don't you love in vain
Cause love won't set you free
I can't stand by the side
And watch this life pass me by
So unhappy
But safe as could be


So what if it hurts me?
So what if I break down?
So what if this world just throws me off the edge
My feet run out of ground
I gotta find my place
I wanna hear my sound
Don't care about all the pain in front of me
Cause i'm just trying to be happy, yeah
Just wanna be happy, yeah


Holding on tightly
Just can't let it go
Just trying to play my role
Slowly disappear, ohh
But all these days, they feel like they're the same
Just different faces, different names
Get me out of here
I can't stand by your side, ohh no
And watch this life pass me by, pass me by


So what if it hurts me?
So what if I break down?
So what if this world just throws me off the edge
My feet run out of ground
I gotta find my place
I wanna hear my sound
Don't care about all the pain in front of me
Cause i'm just trying to be happy, ohh, happy, ohh


So any turns that I can't see,
like I'm a stranger on this road
But don't say victim
Don't say anything


So what if it hurts me?
So what if I break down?
So what if this world just throws me off the edge
My feet run out of ground
I gotta find my place
I wanna hear my sound
Don't care about all the pain in front of me


I just wanna be happy
Ohh, yeah, happy, ohh, happy
I just wanna be, ohh
I just wanna be happy
Ohh, happy

...and I am for the most part.

My dark angel and my trusted friends guide me through my darkest moments

I am truly blessed.

:rose:
 
For those time when you go to your special little place with that special someone.

Holiday by Scorpions

Let me take you far away
You'd like a holiday
Let me take you far away
You'd like a holiday

Exchange the cold days for the sun
A good time and fun
Let me take you far away
You'd like a holiday

Let me take you far away
You'd like a holiday
Let me take you far away
You'd like a holiday

Exchange your troubles for some love
Wherever you are
Let me take you far away
You'd like a holiday

Longing for the sun you will come
To the island without name
Longing for the sun be welcome
On the island many miles away from home
Be welcome on the island without name
Longing for the sun you will come
To the island many miles away from home​
 
Oh Spectre this is exquisite, thank you. * closes my eyes and drifts away into bliss* :rose:
 
He knows :rose:


Time In a Bottle


Jim Croce

If I could save time in a bottle
The first thing that I'd like to do
Is to save every day 'til eternity passes away
Just to spend them with you

If I could make days last forever
If words could make wishes come true
I'd save every day like a treasure and then
Again, I would spend them with you

But there never seems to be enough time
To do the things you want to do once you find them
I've looked around enough to know
That you're the one I want to go through time with

If I had a box just for wishes
And dreams that had never come true
The box would be empty except for the memory
Of how they were answered by you

But there never seems to be enough time
To do the things you want to do once you find them
I've looked around enough to know
That you're the one I want to go through time with

:rose:
 
Thanks for the welcome!

This is a very raw song, and that's why I love it. Probably one of my favorites. It tells a great story, too.

John Mayer - "Comfortable"

I just remembered that time at the market
snuck up behind me and jumped on my shopping cart
and rolled down aisle five
you looked behind you to smile back at me
crashed into a rack full of magazines
they asked us if we could leave

I can't remember what went wrong last September
though I'm sure you'd remind me if you had to

our love was comfortable and so broken in

I sleep with this new girl I'm still getting used to
my friends all approve,
say "she's gonna be good for you"
they throw me high fives
she says the Bible is all that she reads
and prefers that I not use profanity
your mouth was so dirty

life of the party and she swears that she's artsy
but you could distinguish Miles from Coltrane

our love was comfortable and so broken in
she's perfect
so flawless
or so they say

she thinks I can't see the smile that she's faking
and poses for pictures that aren't being taken
I loved you
grey sweatpants
no makeup
so perfect

our love was comfortable and so broken in
she's perfect
so flawless
I'm not impressed
I want you back

There was a time in my life, a couple years back now, when I had to delete this song from my playlist because I was listening to it constantly and it was keeping me stuck in the sadness of a very difficult, very wrenching time of loss.

It still takes me back a bit. It's a very honest song.
 
Always On My Mind - Tiki Taane

Yeah
You're always on my mind girl
Don't you know that you always

I remember when
When I first met you
I knew just what to do
I had to get to know
To get to know your right
Through the darkness you're my light

You're always on my mind
I've been waiting so long
For you I wrote this song
Girl you don't what you've got
Until your world has gone
This is why our love is strong

Girl you've got me singing with some melody
You're always on my mind
This is what you do to me
Girl you've got me singing with some harmony
Forever you're my queen and baby girl I'm your king

I am not afraid
Afraid to say the words
Even if my brothers heard
Because of what you mean
And what you mean to me
You have given everything

You have changed my life
More than you'll ever know
This is why I have to show girl
That you were everything
And everything to me
Baby girl I hope you see

Girl you've got me singing with some melody
You're always on my mind
This is what you do to me
Girl you've got me singing with some harmony
Forever you're my queen and baby girl I'm your king

You're always on my mind girl
Well don't you know that that you're always
You're always on my mind girl

Yeah
Yo

You're always on my mind girl
Don't you know that that you're always
You're always on my mind girl

Yeah
 
Not you're typical love song, but it was in a dream I just had. Ah - the days when I still performed...


Two Hearts: Kylie Minogue


You make me invisible
Like the sky, you make my day
I feel so wonderful
Oh, oh, oh, don’t let go
Now, see, there’s a darker few
It feels like I never saw the sun
Should I shout for a rescue
Oh, oh, oh, don’t let go
Oh, oh, oh, don’t let go

Two hearts are beating, together.
I’m in love (woohoo)
I’m in love (woohoo)
Is this forever, and ever
I’m in love (woohoo)
I’m in love (woohoo)
Two hearts are beating, together.
I’m in love (woohoo)
I’m in love (woohoo)
Is this forever, and ever
I’m in love (woohoo)
I’m in love (woohoo)

Looks good in the sunshine
Hold on, ‘cause I’m coming up for air
I cant even see up here
Oh, oh, oh, don’t let go
Oh, oh, oh, don’t let go

Two hearts are beating, together.
I’m in love (woohoo)
I’m in love (woohoo)
Is this forever, and ever
I’m in love (woohoo)
I’m in love (woohoo)
Two hearts are beating, together.
I’m in love (woohoo)
I’m in love (woohoo)
Is this forever, and ever
I’m in love (woohoo)
I’m in love (woohoo)

Two hearts (a-woo-woo-woo)
I’m in love (woohoo)
I’m in love (woohoo)
Is this forever, and ever
I’m in love (woohoo)
I’m in love (woohoo)
Two, hearts
A woowoowoo, oh.
 
:rose: Of course it has to be with someone special :rose:

Cheek to Cheek

Louis Armstrong & Ella Fitzgerald

:rose:

Heaven
I'm in heaven
And my heart beats
So that I can hardly speak
And I seem to find
The happiness I seek
When we're out together
Dancing cheek to cheek

Heaven
I'm in heaven
And the cares
That hung around me
Through the week
Seem to vanish
Like a gamblers
Lucky streak
When we're out together
Dancing cheek to cheek

Oh
I love to climb a mountain
And to reach the highest peak
But it doesn't thrill me
Half as much
As dancing cheek to cheek
Oh
I love to go out fishing
In a river, or a creek
But I don't enjoy it half
As much as dancing
Cheek to cheek

Dance with me
I want my arm about you
That charm about you
Will carry me through to

Heaven
I'm in heaven
And my heart beats
So that I can hardly speak
And I seem to find
That happiness I seek
When we're out together
Swinging cheek to cheek

Come on and dance with me
I want my arm about you
That charm about you
Will carry me through
Right up to

Heaven
I'm in heaven
And my heart beats
So that I can hardly speak
And I seem to find
That happiness I seek
When we're out
Together dancing
Out together dancing
Out together dancing
Cheek to cheek​
 
I love this thread, so many great songs shared.

Cry To Me- Otis Redding

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9zoK7oS3OdQ

When your baby leaves you all alone
And nobody calls you on the phone
Ah, don't you feel like crying?
Don't you feel like crying?
Well here I am my honey
Oh, come on you cry to me.

When you're all alone in your lonely room
And there's nothing but the smell of her perfume
Ah don't you feel like crying
Don't you feel like crying?
Ah don't you feel like crying?
Come on, come on cry to me.

Well nothing could be sadder
Than a glass of wine, all alone
Loneliness, loneliness, it's such a waste of time
Oh-oh yeah

You don't ever have to walk alone, oh you see
Oh come on, take my hand and baby won't you walk with me?
Oh ya

When you're waiting for a voice to come
In the night and there is no one
Ah don't you feel like crying? (cry to me)
Don't you feel like crying? (cry to me)
Ah don't you feel like a-ca-ca-cra-co-cra-co-cra-cra, (cry to me)
Cra-co-cra-co-cra-cra crying? (cry to me)
Ah don't you feel like a-cra-co-cra-co-cra-cra,
Cra-co-cra-co-cra-cra crying?...
 
More for telling that special girl how you really feel. Also pretty fun to dance to as well.

Girlfriend by Matthew Sweet

I want to love somebody
I hear you need somebody to love
I want to love somebody
I hear you're looking for someone to love

'Cause you need to
Be back in the arms of a good friend
And I need to
Be back in the arms of a girlfriend

I didn't know nobody
And then I saw you coming my way
I didn't know nobody
And then I saw you coming my way

Don't you need to
Be back in the arms of a good friend
Oh 'cause honey believe me
I'd sure love to call you my girlfriend

Alright

Don't you need to
Be back in the arms of a good friend
Oh 'cause honey believe me
I'd sure love to call you my girlfriend

'Cause you got a good thing going baby
You only need somebody to love
Oh you got a good thing going
You're only looking for someone to love

'Cause you need to
Get back in the arms of a good friend

And I'm never gonna set you free
No, I'm never gonna set you free​

Perfect thank you Spectre:rose:


My Dark Angel this is a thank you for your loving message which I woke up to this morning.:heart:



Loving you


Minnie Riperton

Loving you is easy 'cause you're beautiful,
making love with you is all I wanna do.
Loving you is more then just a dream come true,
and everything that I do is out of loving you.

la la la la la, la la la la la, la la la la la la la la la la...do do do doo ohhhhhhhh

No one else can make me feel the colors that you bring.
Stay with me while we grow old and we will live each day in the springtime.
'Cause loving you has made my life so beautiful,
and everyday of my life is filled with loving you.

Loving you, I see your soul come shining through,
and every time that we, oohh..
I'm more in love with you.

la la la la la, la la la la la, la la la la la la la la la la...do do do doo ohhhhhhhh

No one else can make me feel the colors that you bring,
Stay with me while we grow old and we will live each day in the springtime.
'Cause loving you is easy 'cause you're beautiful,
and every day of my life is filled with loving you.
Loving you, I see your soul come shining through,
and every time that we, oohh..
I'm more in love with you.

la la la la la, la la la la la, la la la la la la la la la la la, do do do doo...oohhhhh.

This will be a song filled day I am thinking.

This is my answer my love

Whatever It Takes


Leona Lewis

Da, da, da, da, da, da
Da, da, da, da, da, da, da [x2]

People say love
Comes and goes, but
They don't understand
What they don't know
Cause, what I feel starts
Deep inside
It's planted like a seed
That springs into life

They say it's not right
And we move too fast
But they don't know the meaning
Of what we have

Wherever it is, I'll fly
Whatever it takes, I'll try
So don't pay no mind
To what other people say
Whenever it is in my life
Know that I will be on time
'Cause you know why
There's no standing in our way

Da, da, da, da, da, da
Da, da, da, da, da, da, da [x2]

When you're far and
We're apart
I'm really missing you
I wanna be where you are

They say it's not right (it's not right)
And it won't last (it won't last)
No point believing
What we have

Wherever it is, I'll fly
Whatever it takes, I'll try
So don't pay no mind
To what other people say
Whenever it is in my life
I'll be on time
'Cause you know why
There's no standing in my way

And if you're lost
I'm gonna find you
'Cause without you
I'll break down and cry
And you know why
I wanna surround you
With all my love


Wherever it is, I'll fly
Whatever it takes, I'll try
So don't pay no mind
To what other people say
Whenever it is in my life
Know that I will be on time
'Cause you know why
There's no standing in my way


Da, da, da, da, da, da
Da, da, da, da, da, da, da

Angel


Leona Lewis

I feel it, you feel it
That this was meant to be.
I know it, you know it
That you were made for me.
We can't deny this any longer
Day by day it'sgetting stronger.
I want it, you want it
It's what the people want to see.

We're like Romeo and Juliet
Families can't divide us.
Like the tallest mountain on the widest sea
Nothing's big enough to hide us.
When we make love its overwhelming
I just touch the heavens
You're an angel, you're an angel

I said this world, this world.
Could leave us any day
But my love for you, it will never go away.
And I don't wanna go to sleep
Cuz' you are like a dream
For every night I say a prayer,
And I swear you are the answer
You're an angel, you're an angel, you're an angel.

So we take it and each moment that I'm close
I see it, you see it,
What we have is made of gold
We're so filled with meaning,
Nothing can make us shallow.
So I hold it, and you hold it
The promise of tomorrow.
When we make love its overwhelming
I just touch the heavens.
You're an angel, you're an angel

And I said this world, this world
Could leave us anyday
But my love for you, it will never go away.
And I don't wanna go to sleep
Cuz' you are like a dream
For every night I say a prayer,
And I swear you are the answer
You're an angel, you're an angel, you're an angel.

I don't need three wishes
Oh I just need one
For us to never be finished
For us to never be done
When they say it's over
We'll just say I love you
And when they say it's finished
We'll just keep on building.

And I said this world, this world
Could leave us anyday
But my love for you, it will never go away.
And I don't wanna go to sleep
Cuz' you are like a dream
For every night I say a prayer,
And I swear you are the answer

You're an angel, you're an angel, you're an angel.

Yes you are. You're My angel

:rose::kiss::heart:
 
Thank you my Angel, my love. A wonderful thing to see when I first came on lit.
 
*blushes smiling* wondering if she should let him know what else she may have for him waiting in the shadows.:devil:
 
For those countless day when your there in front of the piano singing this song as if it were a prayer, hoping it gets answered.

Somebody to Love by Queen

Can anybody find me somebody to love?
Each morning I get up I die a little
Can barely stand on my feet
Take a look in the mirror and cry
Lord what you're doing to me
I have spent all my years in believing you
But I just can't get no relief, Lord!
Somebody, somebody
Can anybody find me somebody to love?

I work hard every day of my life
I work till I ache my bones
At the end I take home my hard earned pay all on my own -
I get down on my knees
And I start to pray
Till the tears run down from my eyes
Lord - somebody - somebody
Can anybody find me - somebody to love?

(He works hard)

Everyday - I try and I try and I try -
But everybody wants to put me down
They say I'm goin' crazy
They say I got a lot of water in my brain
Got no common sense
I got nobody left to believe
Yeah - yeah yeah yeah

Oh Lord
Somebody - somebody
Can anybody find me somebody to love?

Got no feel, I got no rhythm
I just keep losing my beat
I'm ok, I'm alright
Ain't gonna face no defeat
I just gotta get out of this prison cell
Someday I'm gonna be free, Lord!

Find me somebody to love
Can anybody find me somebody to love?​
 
I Like It, I Love It

Spent forty-eight dollars
Last night at the county fair,
I throwed out my shoulder
But I won her that teddy bear.
She's got me saying
Sugar-pie, honey, darlin', and dear,
I ain't seen the braves
Play a game all year.
I'm gonna get fired,
If I don't get some sleep,
My long lost buddies
Say I'm gettin' in to deep.

But I like it, I love it,
I want some more of it,
I try so hard,
I can't rise about it.
Don't know what it is
'Bout that little gal's lovin',
But I like it, I love it,
I want some more of it.

My Mama and Daddy
Tried to teach me courtesy,
But it never sank in
'Til that girl got a hold of me.
Now I'm holding unbrellas
And openin' up doors,
I'm taking out the trash
And I'm sweepin' my floors.
Crossin' my fingers,
And countin' every kiss,
Prayin' that it keeps
Goin' on like this.

But I like it, I love it,
I want some more of it,
I try so hard,
I can't rise about it.
Don't know what it is
'Bout that little gal's lovin',
But I like it, I love it,
I want some more of it.

Got to wash my truck and dress up
To pick her up to watch tv.
And she sits down on the sofa,
She'll move a little closer...
She can't get enough of me.

And I like it, I love it,
I want some more of it,
I try so hard,
I can't rise about it.
Don't know what it is
'Bout that little gal's lovin',
But I like it, I love it,
I want some more of it.

Come on baby..

You knoooow what I like...

Yeah.. I like that...

MMmmmmm... MMmmmm... MMmmm

Hey... Don't forget to turn out the lights...​
 
Mumford & Sons - Feel The Tide Turning



She sits him down in a stiff chair
Rubs his back and strokes his hair
Telling him it's okay to cry
But he just sits and stares
The merciless moon outside
Has nothing now he's come to realise
Only the desolation he feels
The cold distance inside

But you and I now
We can be alright
Just hold on to what we know is true
You and I now
Though it's cold inside
Feel the tide turning

While the priest just sits and weeps
Lamenting the fact that he can see
Darkness and light in so much detail
He has given himself over
Refusing what he knows to be real
He turns away from every meal
Starving himself of goodness
He doesn't think he can heal

But you and I now
We can be alright
Just hold on to what we know is true
You and I now
Though it's cold inside
Feel the tide turning

"What if I lost all I had?"
Said the stranger to his dad
And the witness was confused
He can't tell what is bad
Instead he runs up to the nearest girl
And he comments on her glorious curls
Says, "Darling come with me
I'll show you a whole new world"

But you and I now
We can be alright
Just hold on to what we know is true
You and I now
Though it's cold inside
Feel the tide turning
 
Kinda of a theme with Spectre's recent choice but I really like this song. Its more bittersweet given when its paired up with a certain scene in Highlander where I first heard it its not so silly but I like it.

"Who wants to live forever" by Queen

There's no time for us
There's no place for us
What is this thing that builds our dreams yet slips away
from us

Who wants to live forever
Who wants to live forever....?

There's no chance for us
It's all decided for us
This world has only one sweet moment set aside for us

Who wants to live forever
Who wants to live forever?

Who dares to love forever?
When love must die

But touch my tears with your lips
Touch my world with your fingertips
And we can have forever
And we can love forever
Forever is our today
Who wants to live forever
Who wants to live forever?
Forever is our today

Who waits forever anyway?
 
Falling Into You


And in your eyes I see ribbons of color
I see us inside of each other
I feel my unconscious merge with yours
And I hear a voice say, "What's his is hers"

I'm falling into you (falling into you)
This dream could come true
And it feels so good falling into you

I was afraid to let you in here
Now I have learned love can't be made in to fear
The walls begin to tumble down
And I can't even see the ground

I'm falling into you (falling into you)
This dream could come true
And it feels so good falling into you

Falling like a leaf, falling like a star
Finding a belief, falling where you are

Catch me, don't let me drop!
Love me, don't ever stop!

So close your eyes and let me kiss you
And while you sleep I will miss you

Oh I'm falling into you
This dream could come true
And it feels so good falling into you

Falling like a leaf, falling like a star, oh
Finding a belief, falling where you are

Falling into you
Falling into you
Falling into you​
 
Two is better than one~Boys Like Girls

I remember what you wore on the first day
You came into my life and I thought
"Hey, you know, this could be something"

'Cause everything you do and words you say
You know that it all takes my breath away
And now I'm left with nothing

So maybe it's true
That I can't live without you
Maybe two is better than one
There's so much time
To figure out the rest of my life
And you've already got me coming undone
And I'm thinking two is better than one

I remember every look upon your face
The way you roll your eyes
The way you taste
You make it hard for breathing

'Cause when I close my eyes and drift away
I think of you and everything's okay
I'm finally now believing

That maybe it's true
That I can't live without you
Maybe two is better than one
There's so much time
To figure out the rest of my life
And you've already got me coming undone
And I'm thinking two is better than one
Yeah, yeah

I remember what you wore on the first day
You came into my life and I thought, "Hey,"

maybe it's true
That I can't live without you
Maybe two is better than one
There's so much time
To figure out the rest of my life
And you've already got me coming undone

And I'm thinking
I can't live without you
'Cause, baby, two is better than one
There's so much time
To figure out the rest of my life
But I'll figure it out
When all is said and done
Two is better than one
Two is better than one
