'"Let me be the one u call
if u jump i'll break ur fall
lift u up and fly away with u
in to the night
if u need to fall apart
i can mend a broken heart
if u need to crush then
crush & burn ur not alone
There's always been
heart ache & pain &
when it's over u'll
breathe again ''
-savage garden- crush & burn
Over time i've been buliding my castle of love
Just for two, though you never knew you were my reason.
I've come much too far for you now to say
That i've got to throw my castle away.
Over dreams, i have picked out a perfect come true.
Though you never knew it was of you i'd been dreaming.
The sandman as come from too far away,
For you to say come back some other day.
And though you don't believe that they do,
They do come true, For did my dreams
Come true when I looked at you.
And maybe to if you would believe, you to might be overjoyed
Over love over me.
Over hearts, I have painfully turned every stone.
Just to find, I have found what I searched to discover.
i've come much too far, for me now to find
The love that I sought can never be mine
And though you don't believe that they do,
They do come true, For did my dreams
Come true when I looked at you.
And maybe to if you would believe, you to might be overjoyed
Over love, over me.
And, though the odds say improbable, what do they know.
A foreign romance, all true love needs is a chance.
And maybe with a chance you would find, you too like I
Overjoyed, over love, over you
Stevie Wonder is the man
Noted! He really is one of the bench marks. I like his Tangled up in Blue too. His wordplay is phenomenal.Quote:

Yes yes yes,

Once there came a storm in the form of a girl
It blew to pieces my snug little world
Sometimes I swear I can still hear it howl
Down through the wreckage and the ruins
And it ain't gonna rain anymore
Now my baby's gone
And it ain't gonna rain anymore
Now my baby's gone
Now the storm has passed over me
I'm left to drift on a dead calm sea
And watch her forever through the cracks in the beams
Nailed across the doorways of the bedrooms of my dreams
- Nick Cave, Ain't Gonna Rain Anymore
Man! Somebody beat me to the punch, I was going to post something by Cave! Oh well, maybe it's been done eariler anyway. I'll give you my favourite Cave song from his earlier The Birthday Party-era:
Baby is a cool machine
She moves to the pulse of her generator
Says damn that sex supreme.
She says, she says damn that horror bat
Sex horror sex bat sex sex horror sex vampire
Sex bat horror vampire sex
Cool machine
Horror bat. bite!
Cool machine. bite!
Sex vampire. bite!
So twisted. So sinister. Man.
So many to choose from!Quote:

Watching him dash away, swinging an old bouquet - dead roses
Sake and strange divine Uh-hu-hu-uh-hu-hu you'll make it
Passionate bright young things, takes him away to war - don't fake it

Uh-hu-hu-uh-hu-hu - you'll make it
Who'll love Aladdin Sane
Battle cries and champagne just in time for sunrise
Who'll love Aladdin Sane
Motor sensational, Paris or maybe hell - (I'm waiting)
Clutches of sad remains
Waits for Aladdin Sane - you'll make it
Oooh Who'll love Aladdin Sane
Millions weep a fountain, just in case of sunrise
Oooh Who'll love Aladdin Sane
We'll love Aladdin Sane
Love Aladdin Sane

"It's not always rainbows and butterflies, it's compromise that moves us along..."
-Maroon 5, She Will Be Loved
the words you say never seem to live up to the ones inside your head..
the lives we make never seem to ever get us anywhere but dead
I see you there with the rose in your teeth
One more thin gypsy thief
Well, I see Jane's awake
She sends her regards
And what can I tell you my brother, my killer
What can I possibly say?
I guess that I miss you, I guess I forgive you
I'm glad you stood in my way
-Leonard Cohen, Famous Blue Raincoat (the whole song really)
If it doesn't kill you it will make you stronger, but if it kills you you'll be dead.
-Jonathan Coulton, Madeliene
I'm quite contented to take my chances
Against the Guildensterns and Rosencrantzes
-Spin Doctors, How Could You Want Him When You Know You Could Have Me
Should the Mortals dare design
To keep you ever theirs and never mine
Should they in the name of liberty enslave you to their needs
Your ransom has been paid with seven pomegranate seeds
-Roger Clyne and the Peacemakers, Persephone
we'll share our bodies in disdain for the system, I see you take another drag, one nation bends to kiss the hag.
Jeff Buckley, the sky is a landfill
why can't I be loved as what I am, a wolf among wolves and not as a man among men.
Bonnie prince Billie, wolf among wolves
that is all I have for now but I know there are many more...

Hold on to my heart, to my heart, to me

And I'll make it through the night
And I'll be alright, hold on, hold on to my heart
