lost at love before
got mad and closed the door
but you said "try, just once more"
i chose you for the one
now we're having so much fun
you treated me so kind
i'm about to lose my mind
you made me so very happy
the others were untrue
but when it came to loving you
i'd spend my whole life with you
cuz you came and you took control
you touched my very soul
you always showed me that
loving you was where it's at
you made me so very happy
i'm so glad you came into my life yeah

i love you so much you see
you're even in my dreams
i can hear you, i can hear you callin me
i'm so in love with you
all i ever want to do is
thank you baby, thank you baby

you made me so very happy
i'm so glad you came into my life
you made me so very happy
you made me so so very happy baby
i'm so glad you came
into my life
i want to thank you girl
every day of my life
i want to thank you
you made me so very happy
 
The Monkees

I've had all the time I need
To rearrange my mind and lead
The life I thought I wanted yesterday
The road is long, the road is rough
I do believe I've had enough
I'm gonna turn around, head for home
And girl I find
You're still on my mind
And if you want me, too
I'll spend my life with you
 
I went looking for "I want To be free" by the Monkees. I love that song.

my sisters bought the Monkees singles as they came out..."My wife went on a holiday...jamaica? no, she went of her own accord" Hey hey I loved the Monkees.
but this is the first song that came up at a lyrics site...sweet too...like the blue bird flying by me, like the waves out on the blue sea....


The Good Earth
(unknown)

When I was a child and the road was dark
And the way was long and alone
My heart would lift as I turned the bend
And saw the lights of home
Now high above in a silent sky
In a still and starry space
A man looks down on the Earth below
And that blue and green and shining glow
To him is the lights of home.

It's the good earth, yes the good earth
It's the land of sun and rain and snow
And mulberry trees and mistletoe
And burning plains and raging seas
And Sunday morning taking your ease,
Watching your children grow.

It's the good earth, yes the good earth
Where we fought and loved and killed and died
And ruined and ravished the countryside
But now, from a million miles away
From another world that's cold and gray
Someone is able to look and say
"That's the good earth."

So isn't it time we stopped the tears?
We've lived together for thousands of years.
And whether I'm wrong and whether you're right
Whether you're black or whether I'm white
One day we'll stand on the edge of the world
And someone will ask us the land of our birth
And we'll look into his eyes and quietly say
"It's the good earth, yes the good earth."
Why can't we be good, on the good earth?
 
I can't feel
Feel a thing
I can't shout
I can't scream
Breathe it out
Breathe it in
All this love
From within

I won't cry when you say goodbye
I'm out of tears
I won't die when you wave goodbye
I'm out of tears
Out of tears

I won't drink
I won't eat
I can't hear
I won't speak
Let it out
Let it in
All this pain
From within
And I just can't pour my heart out
To another living thing
I'm a whisper
I'm a shadow
But I'm standing up to sing

I won't cry when you say goodbye
I'm out of tears
I won't die when you wave goodbye
I'm out of tears, yes I am
I won't cry, I swear my eyes are dry
I'm out of tears
I won't cry, I'm going to tell you why
I'm out of tears
Out of tears
Out of tears

Let it out
From within
Some you lose
Some you win
I can drift
I can dream
Til I float
Off your screen
And I just can't pour my heart out
To another living thing
I'm a whisper
I'm a shadow
But I'm standing up to sing

I won't cry when you say goodbye
I'm out of tears
I won't die when you wave goodbye
I'm out of tears
Out of tears
I won't cry, I swear my eyes are dry
I'm out of tears
Out of tears
I won't cry, I'm going to tell you why
I'm out of tears
Out of tears
Out of tears
 
some Tears For Fears for y'all...

LOL...oh how I loved this band....don't even get me started....but that Roland dude is one high and mighty fucknut if I've ever seen one...too bad his career basically went down the shitter....it doesn't pay to be a cocky motherfucker...he found that one out! LOL!

Shout
Shout
Let it all out
These are things I can do without
Come On
I'm talking to you
Come on
In violent times
You shouldn't have to sell your soul
In black and white
They really really ought to know
Those one track minds
That took you for a working boy
Kiss them goodbye
You shouldn't have to jump for joy
Shout
They gave you life
And in return you gave them them hell
As cold as ice
I hope we live to tell the tale
Shout
And when you've taken down your guard
If I could change your mind
I'd really love to break your heart
Shout

:wave: :love: :heart: :hug: glad to see this thread is still going strong....let's keep it coming luvs!
 
Tales from the big chair.....mmmBono I wish you were

assessing and writing reports for this years' music students...I bet the teachers wish they could use words like "you are one high and mighty fucknut...you'll go down the shitter if you don't get a new attitude...' It's so timely and funny. I asked hub if all the students have passed the course this year...just between you &me he said....yes, 'cause the teachers don't want any of them back next year!! It's been a tough tough year...almost over...phew!!!

ANYWAY!!!

BLACK AND WHITE
Three Dog Night in 1972


The ink is black, the page is white
Together we learn to read and write
A child is black, a child is white
The whole world looks upon the sight, a beautiful sight

And now a child can understand
That this is the law of all the land, all the land

The world is black, the world is white
It turns by day and then by night
A child is black, a child is white
Together they grow to see the light, to see the light

And now at last we plainly see
We'll have a dance of Liberty, Liberty!

The world is black, the world is white
It turns by day and then by night
A child is black, a child is white
The whole world looks upon the sight, a beautiful sight





Can anyone remember what t"hree dog night's" hit was? i think i'm mixing them up with Steppenwolf.It's gonna bug me all day.....3 dog night? :huh:

They did "Joy to the World" and "One is the Lonelinest Number." Steppenwolf was "Born to be Wild" and "Magic Carpet Ride."

You, who are on the road must have a code that you can live by.
And so become yourself because the past is just a good bye.
Teach your children well, their father's hell did slowly go by,
and feed them on your dreams, the one they fix, the one you'll know by.
Don't you ever ask them why, if they told you, you would cry,
so just look at them and sigh and know they love you.

And you, of the tender years can't know the fears that your elders grew by,
and so please help them with your youth, they seek the truth before they can die.
Teach your parents well, their children's hell will slowly go by,
and feed them on your dreams, the one they fix,the one you'll know by.
Don't you ever ask them why, if they told you, you would cry,
so just look at them and sigh and know they love you.
 
we had a meeting

the members:larry: :adam: :edge: :bono:


and I
:wave:
had a meeting.
We declare that 34 year old women named Mariana aka Nicamom are very very cool.



the lyric...

If there's one thing in my life that's missing
It's the time that I spend alone
Sailing on the cool and bright clear water
Lots of those friendly people
And they're showing me ways to go
And I never want to lose their inspiration
It's time for a cool change
I know that it's time for a cool change
Now that my life is so prearranged
I know that it's time for a cool change

Well I was born in the sign of water
And it's there that I feel my best
The albatross and the whales they are my brothers
It's kind of a special feeling
When you're out on the sea alone
Staring at the full moon, like a lover
Time for a cool change
I know that it's time for a cool change
Now that my life is so prearranged
I know that it's time for a cool change

I've never been romantic
And sometimes I don't care
I know it may sound selfish
But let me breathe the air
Let me breathe the air...

If there's one thing in my life that's missing
It's the time that I spend alone
Sailing on the cool and bright clear water
It's kind of a special feeling
When you're out on the sea alone
Staring at the full moon, like a lover

Time for a cool change
I know that it's time for a cool change
Now that my life is so prearranged
I know that it's time for a cool change

Yes it is, yes it is yes it is
Time for a cool change...

Come gather 'round people
Wherever you roam
And admit that the waters
Around you have grown
And accept it that soon
You'll be drenched to the bone
If your time to you
Is worth savin'
Then you better start swimmin'
Or you'll sink like a stone
For the times they are a-changin'.

Come writers and critics
Who prophesize with your pen
And keep your eyes wide
The chance won't come again
And don't speak too soon
For the wheel's still in spin
And there's no tellin' who
That it's namin'
For the loser now
Will be later to win
For the times they are a-changin'.

Come senators, congressmen
Please heed the call
Don't stand in the doorway
Don't block up the hall
For he that gets hurt
Will be he who has stalled
There's a battle outside
And it is ragin'
It'll soon shake your windows
And rattle your walls
For the times they are a-changin'.

Come mothers and fathers
Throughout the land
And don't criticize
What you can't understand
Your sons and your daughters
Are beyond your command
Your old road is
Rapidly agin'
Please get out of the new one
If you can't lend your hand
For the times they are a-changin'.

The line it is drawn
The curse it is cast
The slow one now
Will later be fast
As the present now
Will later be past
The order is
Rapidly fadin'
And the first one now
Will later be last
For the times they are a-changin'.
 
David Bowie

Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes
(turn and face the strain)
Ch-ch-changes
Don't want to be a richer man
Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes
(turn and face the strain)
Ch-ch-changes
Just gonna have to be a different man
Time may change me
But I can't trace time

It's time to go again
To your blue room
Got some questions to ask of you
In your blue room

The air is clean
Your skin is clear
I've had enough fun hanging 'round here
It's a different kind of conversation
Your blue room

Saw me coming
In outside
Saw me coming
Somewhere I can hide

And time is a string of pearls...your blue room
(I'm a swinger)
See the future just hanging there...your blue room
A new frame, a new perspective
Looking down on my objectives
Your instructions whatever their directions
Your blue room

Saw me coming
East by the moon
Saw me coming
Can you feel

(It's allright)

Your Blue Room

One day I'll be back...your blue room
Yeah, I hope I remember where it's at...your blue room

We see me slide
Won't you give me a home
So much for change

Zooming in
Zooming out
Nothing I can't do without
A lens to see it all up close
Magnifying what no one knows
Never in company
Never alone
No car alarm
No cellular phone
 
There's a world where I can go
and tell my secrets to
In my room
In my room

In this world I lock out
all my worries and my fears
In my room
In my room

Do my dreaming and my scheming lie awake and pray
Do my crying and my sighing laugh at yesterday

Now it's dark and I'm alone
but I won't be afraid
In my room
In my room
 
in the white room with black curtains near the station.
black-roof country, no gold pavements, tired starlings.
silver horses run down moonbeams in your dark eyes.
she's just dressing, goodbye windows, tired starlings.
and i'll wait in this place where the sun never shines;
wait in this place where the shadows run from themselves.
you said no strings could secure you at the station.
platform ticket, restless diesels, goodbye windows.
as i walked in such a bad time at the station.
as i walked out, felt my own needs just beginning.
and i'll wait in the queue when the trains come back;
lie with you where the shadows run from themselves.

at the party she was kindness in the hard crowd.
consolation for the old wound now forgovern.
yellow tigers crouched in jungles in her dark eyes.
she's just dressing, goodbye windows, tired starlings.

and i'll wait in this place where the sun never shines;
lie in the dark where the shadows run from themselves.
 
My Fair Lady!!

All I want is a room somewhere
Far away from the cold night air
With one great big enormous chair

Oh wouldn't it be loverly!

Lots of chocolate for me to eat
Someone's 'ead resting on my knee
Who'll take good care of me

Oh wouldn't it be loverly!
 
"Come on "can'trecall", move your bloomin' arse!!" - audrey hepburn (rest her so

U said chair....THE CHAIR!!! i think i might have to see then in concert if I can)

silverchair

chain a waterfall to BURNED and withered skin...
I'm watching you
watch over me
And I have
THE GREATEST VIEW
from here........
:sad:
 
why are these women here dancing on their own?
why is there this sadness in their eyes?
why are the soldiers here
their faces fixed like stone?
i can't see what it is that they despise
they're dancing with the missing
they're dancing with the dead
they dance with the invisible ones
their anguish is unsaid
they're dancing with their fathers
they're dancing with their sons
they're dancing with their husbands
they dance alone, they dance alone

it's the only form of protest they're allowed
i've seen their silent faces they scream so loud
if they were to speak these words they'd go missing too
another woman on the torture table what else can they do
they're dancing with the missing
they're dancing with the dead
they dance with the invisible ones
their anguish is unsaid
they're dancing with their fathers
they're dancing with their sons
they're dancing with their husbands
they dance alone, they dance alone

one day we'll dance on their graves
one day we'll sing our freedom
one day we'll laugh in our joy
and we'll dance
one day we'll dance on their graves
one day we'll sing our freedom
one day we'll laugh in our joy
and we'll dance

ellas danzan con los desaparecidos
ellas danzan con los muertos
ellas danzan con amores invisibles
ellas danzan con silenciosa angustia
danzan con sus padres
danzan con sus hijos
danzan con sus esposos
ellas danzan solas
danzan solas

hey mister pinochet
you've sown a bitter crop
it's foreign money that supports you
one day the money's going to stop
no wages for your torturers
no budget for your guns
can you think of your own mother
dancing with her invisible son
they're dancing with the missing
they're dancing with the dead
they dance with the invisible ones
their anguish is unsaid
they're dancing with their fathers
they're dancing with their sons
they're dancing with their husbands
they dance alone, they dance alone
 
U got it in one there girl. In the rain we FEEL their tears..

I'll resist the urge to tell you my theory about line-dancing. when I struck upon it...it made me cry :sad:

someone else's turn...i'll just start singing in a minor key again
:wave: the singers.

oh can i do the hidden track from the kasey Chambers album> I love that girl more and more. Have you heard of Mamma Tina, Christine Noble, who helps orphans in Cambodia and surrounds ?( how can we have another war, we are still trying to heal the people from the last few...too many dance alone, too many don't have limbs to dance) Kasey gave the song royalties to her Foundation.

nope, can't find the lyrics in a search and I'd want to do the whole song to do it justice. I'll type it out later off-lne....


some one else....please
 
Oh she knows
She takes his hand
And prays the child will understand
At the door they watch the men go by
In the clothes that daddy wore
Mothers pride
Baby Boy
His father's eyes
He's a soldier waiting for war
Time will come
He'll hold a gun
His father's son

And as he grows
He hears the band
Takes the step from boy to man
And at the shore she waves her son goodbye
Like the man she did before

Mothers pride
Just a boy
His country's eyes
He's a soldier waving at the shore
And in her heart the time has come
To lose a son

And all the husbands, all the sons, all the lovers gone
They make no difference
No difference in the end
Still hear the woman say your daddy died a hero
In the name of God and man

Mothers pride
Crazy boy
His lifeless eyes
He's a soldier now forevermore
He'll hold a gun till kingdom come
 
Happiness is a warm gun



She's not a girl who misses much
Do do do do do do do do ooh yeah
She's well acquainted with the touch of the velvet hand
Like a lizard on a window pane

The man in the crowd with the multicoloured mirrors on his hobnail boots
Lying with his eyes while his hands are busy working overtime
A soap impression of his wife which he ate and donated to the National Trust

I need a fix 'cause I'm going down
Down to the bits that I left uptown
I need a fix 'cause I'm going down

Mother Superior jump the gun, Mother Superior jump the gun
Mother Superior jump the gun, Mother Superior jump the gun
Mother Superior jump the gun, Mother Superior jump the gun

Happiness is a warm gun
Happiness is a warm gun mama

When I hold you in my arms
And I feel my finger on your trigger
I know nobody can do me no harm
Because happiness is a warm gun mama
Happiness is a warm gun yes it is
Happiness is a warm yes it is gun
But don't you know that happiness is a warm gun mama
 
Welcome to the second reel glad that you can make it
We thought your fate was sealed it's not what we expected
But you punch above your weight and you're stronger than you look
And the ending's not the same they changed it from the book

I'm the boy with the bubblegun
I'm taking aim
I cannot hit to hurt or cause you pain
If words could kill I'd spell out your name

It's time to kill the king it's written in the scripture
See what tomorrow brings got to get a bigger picture
So forgive me forgive me for I am born to be what I must be and I must be

The boy with the bubblegun I'm taking aim
I cannot hit to hurt or cause you pain
If words could kill I'd spell out your name
I'm the boy with the bubblegun
The boy with the bubblegun
I'm the boy with the bubblegun with work to do
If songs could kill this one's for you
 
back again

just wanted to explain when I said earlier'could someone please?" I meant continue the thread with a happy song, not transcribe the lyrics to
Kasey Chamber's greatsong "Ignorance"
I'm glad you got my drift. funny thing, just yesterday I was thinking"hair trigger " might be an OK band name...might be...not.. Anyway...as freddie would say.........

THESHOW MUST GO ON!
PS: A whole bunch of Clarence Valley musicians just won a whole bunch of the North Coast Entertainment Industry Dolphin Awards

The Clarence Hotel, Grafton
:lol:
I think that is funny:yes:
:wave: the singers
 
I was going to use REM's "The One I Love" to respond to meegannie's post but thought this song was much sweeter (and may swing us in a more upbeat direction)...

While I'm far away from you my baby
I know it's hard for you my baby
Because it's hard for me my baby
And the darkest hour is just before dawn

Each night before you go to bed my baby
Whisper a little prayer for me my baby
And tell all the stars above
This is dedicated to the one I love
(love can never be exactly like we want it to be)

I could be satisfied knowing you love me
(and there's one thing I want you to do
especially for me)
And it's something that everybody needs

While I'm far away from you my baby
Whisper a little prayer for me my baby
Because it's hard for me my baby
And the darkest hour is just before dawn

If there's one thing I want you to do especially for me
Then it's something that everybody needs

Each night before you go to bed my baby
Whisper a little prayer for me my baby
And tell all the stars above
This is dedicated to the one I love
 
Speaking of REM...

When the day is long and the night, the night is yours alone,
when you're sure you've had enough of this life, well hang on.
Don't let yourself go, everybody cries and everybody hurts sometimes

:wave: Just thought I'd give this thread a lil' sweet bump in the arse...I found it sunk to page 7...I missed it BIG time!!!
 
there's no need to wake.
We all get tired from the
chances that we
I wish that I could take away
the tears from your eyes it's just that
sometimes everybody cries.

Outside the walls around us
you must be strong
and when you you're walking
all alone
just remember I'll be there
to greet you when you rise it's okay
sometimes everybody cries.

I've seen you watching people
walking through this world
seen what they do to try and make it through each day.
Don't be alarmed there's something
out there waiting just for you someday.
(repeat)

Let the stars fall down
over your head
and don't you worry bout
the things you said
just you drift away into
the world behind your eyes it's okay
sometimes everybody cries
sometimes everybody cries
 
Yay, it's back!! I totally thought I'd killed it :( Thank you mmmBono for bringing it back!!!

On with the lyrics...

Never forget who you are
Little star
Never forget how to dream
Butterfly

God gave a present to me
Made of flesh and bones
My life, my soul
You make my spirit whole

Never forget who you are
Little star
Shining brighter than all the stars in the sky
Never forget how to dream
Butterfly
Never forget where you come from
From love

You are a treasure to me
You are my star
You breathe new life
Into my broken heart

Never forget who you are
Little star
Never forget how to dream
Butterfly

May the angels protect you
And sadness forget you
Little star

There's no reason to weep
Lay your head down to sleep
Little star

May goodness surround you
My love I have found you
Little star

Shining bright

You breathe new life
Into my broken heart

Never forget who you are
(Whispered:) Little star
Shining brighter than all the stars in the sky
Never forget how to dream
Butterfly
Flying higher than all the birds in the sky

Never forget who you are
Little star
Never forget where you come from
From love

Little star
Little star
Little star
From love
 
No problem, babe...NO problem!!

:wave: :tongue: why did you think you killed it? LOL...you certainly didn't do that....but I tell ya what...I think it was pretty fookin lonely on page 7!!! And as for the next song...I was only gonna post a couple of verses...and then dammit...why the fook not post the whole damn thing? One of my all time favourite songs EVER...rocks my world and then some!

It's no secret that the stars are falling from the sky
It's no secret that our world is in darkness tonight
They say the sun is sometimes eclipsed by a moon
You know I don't see you when she walks in the room


It's no secret that a friend is someone who lets you help
It's no secret that a liar won't believe anyone else
They say a secret is something you tell one other person
So I'm telling you...child


A man will beg
A man will crawl
On the sheer face of love
Like a fly on a wall
It's no secret at all

Love...we shine like a
burning star
We're falling from
the sky...tonight


It's no secret that a conscience can sometimes be a pest
It's no secret ambition bites the nails of success
Every artist is a cannibal, every poet is a thief
All kill their inspiration and sing about their grief
Oh love...


A man will rise
A man will fall
From the sheer face of love
Like a fly from a wall
It's no secret at all

Love...we shine like a
burning star
We're falling from
the sky...tonight


(Achtung Baby)

(Love...we shine like a burning star)
(We're falling from the sky...tonight)


A man will rise
A man will fall
From the sheer face of love
Like a fly from a wall
It's no secret at all

Love...we shine like a
burning star
We're falling from
the sky...tonight


It's no secret that the stars are falling from the sky
The universe exploded 'cause of one man's lie
Look, I gotta go, yeah I'm running outta change
There's a lot of things, if I could I'd rearrange


:drool: this song...it's just....just....too damn good....damn...gah...I need air...LOL..
 
A little bit of AC DC

You can dance through the night
Rock n roll music itching to fight
Makin love drunk or stoned
Lookin for dollars
Get broken-boned
It's a game too tough to tame
Ends up the same
Sweatin out the rain

I was trapped like a fly on the wall
I was caged lke a zoo animal
No escape from the fate that you make
You're a snake, I've had all I can take
Watch out, there's a fly on the wall

Take a chance, take a bite
Rock n roll devil, take me tonight
Like a bitch makin heat
Beatin on my chest
Lickin at my feet
It's a game too tough to tame
Ending up the same
Sweatin in the rain
So watch out, there's a fly on the wall

I was trapped like a fly on the wall
I was caged like a zoo animal
No escape from the fate that you make
You're a snake, I've had all I can take

There's a fly on the wall
