I love that song.

One of the best CDs I own. I love every song on it.

Take my love, take my land
Take me where I cannot stand
I don't care, I'm still free
You can't take the sky from me
Take me out to the black
Tell them I ain't comin' back
Burn the land and boil the sea
You can't take the sky from me
There's no place I can be
Since I found Serenity
But you can't take the sky from me...

To Vana still my Goddess for now and always

"Always On Your Side"

My yesterdays are all boxed up and neatly put away
But every now and then you come to mind
Cause you were always waiting to be picked to play the game
But when your name was called, you found a place to hide
When you knew that I was always on your side

Well everything was easy then, so sweet and innocent
But your demons and your angels reappeared
Leavin' all the traces of the man you thought you'd be
Leavin' me with no place left to go from here
Leavin' me so many questions all these years

But is there someplace far away, someplace where all is clear
Easy to start over with the ones you hold so dear
Or are you left to wonder, all alone, eternally
This isn't how it's really meant to be
No it isn't how it's really meant to be

Well they say that love is in the air, but never is it clear,
How to pull it close and make it stay
Butterflies are free to fly, and so they fly away
And I'm left to carry on and wonder why
Even through it all, I'm always on your side

But is there someplace far away, someplace where all is clear
Easy to start over with the ones you hold so dear
Or are we left to wonder, all alone, eternally
But is this how it's really meant to be
No is it how it's really meant to be

Well if they say that love is in the air, never is it clear
How to pull it close and make it stay
If butterflies are free to fly, why do they fly away
Leavin' me to carry on and wonder why
Was it you that kept me wondering through this life
When you know that I was always on your side

In The Country - Chicago

Oh my reasons
And my ways
Keep on changing
From day to day
As I grow
It becomes so clear
Why I’m here

It’s all here
For you and me
The beauty of life
Someday you’ll see
Then you’ll join in
And sing along
And you’ll understand why I sing this song
Let me tell you now
I do love you
I do love you
I do love you

Well I’m talkin’ bout life
And livin’
And the beautiful earth
And givin’
Talkin ’bout the natural things we’ve had since birth
That’s lovin’
Well I’m talkin’ ’bout a walk in the country
Mother nature’s sweet charm
The smell of her perfume
As we walk arm in arm
Let me tell you now
I do love you
I do love you
I do love you

Well it’s a beautiful day
And I’m on my way
Oooh, thank you lord, for the country

Well my thoughts
Are like ripples in a stream
I see myself so free
My eyes and spirit say hello
My soul goes dancing by, oh hello

The clean fresh air
Goes jumping through my head
The sun is smilin’ down
If you have ever lived out here
Then you know why I say
I do love you
I do love you
I do love you

So come on let’s move
Out to the country
Yeah, let’s go live out there
Come on people
Come on people
Yeah, let’s be free
We got to be free
In the country
You and me
Come on people
Come on people
Better have a good time
We’ll have a good time
We got to be free

Alanis Morissette: Head over feet

I had no choice but to hear you
You stated your case time and again
I thought about it

You treat me like I’m a princess
I’m not used to liking that
You ask how my day was

You’ve already won me over in spite of me
Don’t be alarmed if I fall head over feet
Don’t be surprised if I love you for all that you are
I couldn’t help it
It’s all your fault

Your love is thick and it swallowed me whole
You’re so much braver than I gave you credit for
That’s not lip service

You are the bearer of unconditional things
You held your breath and the door for me
Thanks for your patience

You’re the best listener that I’ve ever met
You’re my best friend
Best friend with benefits
What took you so long

You’ve already won me over in spite of me
Don’t be alarmed if I fall head over feet
Don’t be surprised if I love you for all that you are
I couldn’t help it
It’s all your fault

I’ve never felt this healthy before
I’ve never wanted something rational
I am aware now
I am aware now

I Could Give You More - 54 40

All that I am wanting is a rest
Caught in a field of emptiness
Still I do not know
Why I'm on the road
I could give you more

Been livin life mostly in the past
Driftin through the moments that don't last
Still I'm on th road
Destiny unknown
I could give you more

Tonight I take the stage
I come alive and I find a way
I could give you more

Tonight I take the stage
I come alive and I find a way
I could give you more

"Up The Ladder To The Roof"
Bette Midler

Come with me, come with me
and we shall run across the sky.
We illuminate the night.
Ohhhh, I, I will try and guide you
to better times and brighter days.
Just don't be afraid.

Come on up the ladder to the roof
where we can see heaven much better.
Let's go up the ladder to the roof
where we can be closer to heaven.

Stay with me, stay with me
and we shall let expression sing.
Hear freedom ringin'.
Ohhh, memories of yesterday's broken dreams.
Hey, don't you know, don't you know
that they are gonna fade away?
Don't be afraid.

Come on up the ladder to the roof
where we can see heaven much better.
Let's go up the ladder to the roof
where we can be closer to heaven.

We'll laugh, I'll tell you the story of love.
How it is, the happiness in it, baby.
We combine these thoughts and together we will travel
to the fountain of lovingness.
I will never, never, never, never,
never leave you, baby.
As we grow older and older and older, babe.

Standing strong we'll say:
Say, don't you wanna go?
Say, don't you wanna go?
Say, don't you wanna go?
Say, don't you wanna go?
Say, don't you wanna go?
Say, don't you wanna go?
Say, don't you wanna go?
Say, don't you wanna go

up the ladder to the roof
where we can see heaven much better.
Let's go up the ladder to the roof
where we can be closer to heaven.

Let's go up the, up the, up the ladder to heaven.
Heaven, heaven, heaven, heaven.

Fly Like An Eagle - Steve Miller Band

Time keeps on slippin', slippin', slippin'
Into the future
Time keeps on slippin', slippin', slippin'
Into the future

I want to fly like an eagle
To the sea
Fly like an eagle
Let my spirit carry me
I want to fly like an eagle
Till I'm free
Oh, Lord, through the revolution

Feed the babies
Who don't have enough to eat
Shoe the children
With no shoes on their feet
House the people
Livin' in the street
Oh, oh, there's a solution

I want to fly like an eagle
To the sea
Fly like an eagle
Let my spirit carry me
I want to fly like an eagle
Till I'm free
Fly through the revolution

Time keeps on slippin', slippin', slippin'
Into the future
Time keeps on slippin', slippin', slippin'
Into the future
Time keeps on slippin', slippin', slippin'
Into the future
Time keeps on slippin', slippin', slippin'
Into the future

I want to fly like an eagle
To the sea
Fly like an eagle
Let my spirit carry me
I want to fly like an eagle
Till I'm free
Fly through the revolution

Time keeps on slippin', slippin', slippin'
Into the future
Time keeps on slippin', slippin', slippin'
Into the future

The Entertainer - Billy Joel

I am the entertainer
And I know just where I stand
Another serenader
And another long-haired band

Today I am your champion
I may have won your hearts
But I know the game, you'll forget my name
And I won't be here in another year
If I don't stay on the charts

I am the entertainer
And I've had to pay my price
The things I did not know at first
I learned by doin' twice
Ah, but still they come to haunt me
Still they want their say
So I've learned to dance with a hand in my pants
I let 'em rub my neck and I write 'em a check
And they go their merry way

I am the entertainer
Been all around the world
I've played all kinds of palaces
And laid all kinds of girls
I can't remember faces
I don't remember names
Ah, but what the hell
You know it's just as well
'Cause after a while and a thousand miles
It all becomes the same

I am the entertainer
I bring to you my songs
I'd like to spend a day or two
I can't stay that long
No, I've got to meet expenses
I got to stay in line
Gotta get those fees to the agencies
And I'd love to stay but there's bills to pay
So I just don't have the time

I am the entertainer
I come to do my show
You've heard my latest record
It's been on the radio

Ah, it took me years to write it
They were the best years of my life
It was a beautiful song
But it ran too long
If you're gonna have a hit
You gotta make it fit
So they cut it down to 3:05

I am the entertainer
The idol of my age
I make all kinds of money
When I go on the stage
Ah, you've seen me in the papers
I've been in the magazines
But if I go cold I won't get sold
I'll get put in the back in the discount rack
Like another can of beans

I am the entertainer
And I know just where I stand
Another serenader
And another long-haired band

Today I am your champion
I may have won your hearts
But I know the game, you'll forget my name
I won't be here in another year
If I don't stay on the charts

Excerpt-
Don't Phunk With My Heart ~ Black Eyed Peas

No, no, no, no, don’t phunk with my heart
No, no, no, no, don’t phunk with my heart

I wonder if I take you home
Would you still be in love, baby
In love, baby
I wonder if I take you home
Would you still be in love, baby
In love, baby

Ain't Gonna Let Nobody Turn Me Around - - - Joan Baez

Ain't gonna let nobody, turn me around
Turn me around, turn me around
Ain't gonna let nobody, turn me around
Keep on a walking, keep on a talking
Gonna build a brand new world

Ain't gonna let no rain now, turn me around
Turn me around, turn me around
Ain't gonna let no rain no, turn me around
Keep on a walking, keep on a talking
Gonna build a brand new world

Ain't gonna let nobody, turn me around
Turn me around, turn me around
Ain't gonna let nobody, turn me around
Keep on a walking, keep on a talking
Keep on a singing, keep on a swinging
Gonna build a brand new world

"Absence Of Fear" (Jewel)

Inside my skin there is this space
It twists and turns
It bleeds and aches
Inside my heart there's an empty room
It's waiting for lightning
It's waiting for you
And I am wanting
And I am needing you here
Inside the absence of fear
Muscle and sinew
Velvet and stone
This vessel is haunted
It creaks and moans
My bones call to you
In their separate skin
I make myself translucent
To let you in, for
I am wanting
And I am needing of you here
Inside the absence of fear
there is this hunger
This restlessness inside of me
and it knows that you're no stranger
you're my gravity
My hands will adore you through all darkness aim
They will lay you out in moonlight
And reinvent your name
For I am wanting you
And I am needing you here
I need you near
Inside the absence of fear

All of a Sudden


All of a sudden all the past was behind me.
All of a sudden nothing stood to remind me.
All of a piece i am awake and i can say.

All of a sudden i am finding religion.
All of a sudden all my sins are forgiven.
Now all at once it is down to you and me.

I see light over there at the end of the tunnel and
I don't mind if it takes a little more time.
Come over here, don't take your hand away.
Come over here, take my breath away.
Now is the time to say what you want to say.
(it's not a dream, this is really happening.)

All of a sudden, now baby, it's love.
All of a little just isn't enough.
All of a sudden, now baby, it's real.
All of the riddle comes perfectly clear.

All in a moment i was brought through the darkness.
All in one motion like the sun through the forest.
Oh, by the grace i am alive and i will live.

All of a sudden i am cleared of confusion.
All of my happiness is real, not illusion.
So many years i had to seek so i could find.

I see light over there at the end of the tunnel and
I don't mind if it takes a little more time.
Come over here, don't take your hand away.
Come over here, take my breath away.
Now is the time to say what you want to say.
(it's not a dream, this is really happening.)

All of a sudden, now baby, it's love.
All of a little just isn't enough.
All of a sudden, now baby, it's real.
All of the riddle comes perfectly clear.

Come over here, don't take your hand away.
Come over here, and take my breath away.
Now is the time to say what you want to say.
(it's not a dream, this is really happening.)

All of a sudden, now baby, it's love.
All of a little just isn't enough.
All of a sudden. now baby, it's real.
All of the riddle comes perfectly clear.

All of a sudden, now baby, it's true.
All of a sudden i believe in you.
All of a sudden i'm fooling around.
All of a sudden i know what i found.
I know what i found.
I know what i found.
I know what i found.

LARA FABIAN LYRICS: "Yeliel (My Angel)"

Just like the sea
No one possesses you
And no one can go down to
The deepest side of you
Just like a tree
Decades and memories
Articulate and seal
Every one of your dreams
When I need you I secretly sing you this part of my soul

Yeliel, my angel
Know that I can hear you
And every word you speak is holy
Wind caressing me
Yeliel, my angel
Know that I can see you
And when I fall I feel your arms around my destiny
Protecting me

I do believe
Some things are mysteries
The simple fact that we stand alive
that we breathe
Why do I love
Why do I hate and die
Where do these things all lie
I don't know why I cry
When I need you I secretly sing you this part of my soul

Why do I love
Why do I hate and die
Where do these things all lie
I don't know why I cry
When I need you I secretly sing you this part of my soul

Yeliel, my angel
Know that I can hear you
And every word you speak is holy
Wind caressing me
Yeliel, my angel
Know that I can see you
And when I fall I feel your arms around my destiny
Protecting me

Blues Man - Stephen Stills

Blues man
Play your hand
Do it right
Come on strong
Don't stay too long
Runnin' wild
Singin' child
Powered sound
Push you hard
Lookin' to get down
Such a waste
Y'left such a space
I shared your dreams
I felt your heart
Did I hear you scream
Runnin' scared
Y'run everywhere
Could not choose
Where to hide
Play the blues
Played it mad
Played it sad
Blues is pain
The way men cry
Like tired rain
Blues is mean
The real thing
Three good men
I knew well
Never see again

"Breakdown" (Melissa Etheridge)

How could I stay
How could I breathe
There had to be more for me
Promises gone
Plastic and stone
I'm doing fine all alone

So you're having a breakdown
So you're losing the fight
So you're having a breakdown
And I'm driving and crying
Unraveled and flying
I'm coming to your breakdown tonight

I cannot run
I cannot hide
It came with me locked inside
The bough will break
Cradle will fall
It only takes one call

So you're having a breakdown
So you're losing the fight
So you're having a breakdown
And you need me tonight

I found my place in this downtown
Salt air and yellow street lights
So you're having a breakdown
And I'm driving and crying
Unraveled and flying
I'm coming to your breakdown tonight

In a mildly cynical mood and need a song to match it.

So, The Angels Wanna Wear My Red Shoes by Elvis Costello.

Oh I used to be disgusted
And now I try to be amused.
But since their wings have got rusted,
You know, the angels wanna wear my red shoes.
But when they told me ’bout their side of the bargain,
That’s when I knew that I could not refuse.
And I won’t get any older, now the angels wanna wear my red shoes.

I was watching while you’re dancing away.
Our love got fractured in the echo and sway.
How come everybody wants to be your friend?
You know that it still hurts me just to say it.

Oh, I know that she’s disgusted (oh why’s that)
Cause she’s feeling so abused. (oh that’s too bad)
She gets tired of the lust, (oh I’m so sad)
But it’s so hard to refuse.
How can you say that I’m too old,
When the angels have stolen my red shoes.

Oh, I said I’m so happy, I could die.
She said drop dead, then left with another guy.
That’s what you get if you go chasing after vengeance.
Ever since you got me punctured this has been my sentence.
Oh I used to be disgusted
And now I try to be amused.
But since their wings have got rusted,
You know, the angels wanna wear my red shoes.
Red shoes, the angels wanna wear my red shoes.

The Motown Song - Rod Stewart

Bring over some of your old motown records
We’ll put the speakers in the window and we’ll go
On the roof and listen to the miracles
Echo to the alley down below

Let’s dance together just for the night
Let’s don’t worry about the future or nothin’ else
’cause just like the music’s sayin’ you gotta take chances
Go ahead just do it and trust yourself

There’s a soul in the city
Watching over us tonight
There’s a soul in the city
Saying everything’s gonna be all right

So bring over some of your old motown records
We’ll put the speakers in the window and we’ll go
On the roof and listen to the miracles
Echo to the alley down below

They wish us luck
But they think we’re just dreaming
Let’s prove them wrong baby
’cause you know what luck is
Luck is believing you’re lucky
That’s all and showing just a little bit of faith

There’s a soul in the city
Watching over us I swear
There’s a soul in the city
There’s a whole world waiting out there

Listen
I got plans for us
Playing like a skip on a record
Through my head all night long
But when we walk that darkened stairway
And step out on the roof
I know what we’re feeling can’t be wrong

Bring over some of your old motown records
We’ll put the speakers in the window and we’ll go
On the roof and listen to the miracles
Echo to the alley down below

Bring over some of your old motown records
We’ll put the speakers in the window and we’ll go
On the roof and listen to the miracles
Echo to the alley down below
’let the temptations sing it one time’
Bring over some of you old motown records
We’ll put the speakers in the window and we’ll go
On the roof and listen to the miracles
Echo to the alley down below

Maggie May - Rod Stewart

Wake up maggie I think I got something to say to you
It’s late september and I really should be back at school
I know I keep you amused but I feel I’m being used
Oh maggie I couldn’t have tried any more
You lured me away from home just to save you from being alone
You stole my heart and that’s what really hurt

The morning sun when it’s in your face really shows your age
But that don’t worry me none in my eyes you’re everything
I laughed at all of your jokes my love you didn’t need to coax
Oh, maggie I couldn’t have tried any more
You lured me away from home, just to save you from being alone
You stole my soul and that’s a pain I can do without

All I needed was a friend to lend a guiding hand
But you turned into a lover and
Mother what a lover, you wore me out
All you did was wreck my bed
And in the morning kick me in the head
Oh maggie I couldn’t have tried anymore
You lured me away from home ’cause you didn’t want to be alone
You stole my heart I couldn’t leave you if I tried

I suppose I could collect my books and get on back to school
Or steal my daddy’s cue and make a living out of playing pool
Or find myself a rock and roll band that needs a helpin’ hand
Oh maggie I wish I’d never seen your face
You made a first-class fool out of me
But I’m as blind as a fool can be
You stole my heart but I love you anyway

Maggie I wish I’d never seen your face
I’ll get on back home one of these days

Addicted To Love Lyrics - Robert Palmer

Your lights are on, but you're not home
Your mind is not your own
Your heart sweats, your body shakes
Another kiss is what it takes

You can't sleep, you can't eat
There's no doubt, you're in deep
Your throat is tight, you can't breathe
Another kiss is all you need

Whoa, you like to think that you're immune to the stuff, oh yeah
It's closer to the truth to say you can't get enough
You know you're gonna have to face it, you're addicted to love

You see the signs, but you can't read
You're runnin' at a different speed
Your heart beats in double time
Another kiss and you'll be mine, a one track mind

You can't be saved
Oblivion is all you crave
If there's some left for you
You don't mind if you do

Whoa, you like to think that you're immune to the stuff, oh yeah
It's closer to the truth to say you can't get enough
You know you're gonna have to face it, you're addicted to love

Might as well face it, you're addicted to love
Might as well face it, you're addicted to love
Might as well face it, you're addicted to love
Might as well face it, you're addicted to love
Might as well face it, you're addicted to love

------ lead guitar ------

Your lights are on, but you're not home
Your will is not your own
You're heart sweats and teeth grind
Another kiss and you'll be mine

Whoa, you like to think that you're immune to the stuff, oh yeah
It's closer to the truth to say you can't get enough
You know you're gonna have to face it, you're addicted to love

Might as well face it, you're addicted to love
Might as well face it, you're addicted to love
Might as well face it, you're addicted to love
Might as well face it, you're addicted to love
Might as well face it, you're addicted to love

LARA FABIAN: "You're Not From Here"

I don't know what is going on
You turn around and touch my heart
A silent moment speaks the truth
Something has happened all at once
It should have scared me in advance
But I was falling in those eyes of yours
And so
Fear was gone
I knew there was nothing else
I'd ever want

I know you
You're not from here
I've waited for you to appear
To take my breath away
And make me weep
You're not from here
Not from this here and now
Just a touch of yours
And I fly... and I fly... and I fly

I can't get used to missing you
If this is how it's gotta be
I need an angel to watch over me
No one can hold the hands of time
But I can hold you in my mind
Over and over like a melody
For now
I'll stand still
For now
I'll be filled by the memory of your skin
I know you
You're not from here
You don't belong to lies and tears
The greatness of your soul
Makes me weep
You're not from here
Not from this here and now
Just a touch of yours
And I fly... and I fly... and I fly

It's a song, therefore the radio thread.
