Sarah McLachlan - Possession


Listen as the wind blows from across the great divide
voices trapped in yearning, memories trapped in time
the night is my companion, and solitude my guide
would I spend forever here and not be satisfied?
and I would be the one
to hold you down
kiss you so hard
I'll take your breath away
and after, I'd wipe away the tears
just close your eyes dear
Through this world I've stumbled
so many times betrayed
trying to find an honest word to find
the truth enslaved
oh you speak to me in riddles
and you speak to me in rhymes
my body aches to breathe your breath
your words keep me alive
And I would be the one
to hold you down
kiss you so hard
I'll take your breath away
and after, I'd wipe away the tears
just close your eyes dear
Into this night I wander
it's morning that I dread
another day of knowing of
the path I fear to tread
oh into the sea of waking dreams
I follow without pride
nothing stands between us here
and I won't be denied
and I would be the one
to hold you down
kiss you so hard
I'll take your breath away
and after, I'd wipe away the tears
just close your eyes...
 
Friendly Dragon and Simply Me...our song

We have a couple of songs we consider to be "ours". This one came about during my trip to meet her. We kept hearing it all the time, and danced to it in the dark several times :).

I love you, Simply Me. Baby I'm amazed by you http://my.genie.co.uk/jondragon1011/heart.gif



Amazed
by Lonestar


Every time our eyes meet
This feeling inside me
Is almost more than I can take
Baby when you touch me
I can feel how much you love me
And it just blows me away
I've never been this close to anyone or anything
I can hear your thoughts
I can see your dreams

I don't know how you do what you do
I'm so in love with you, it just keeps getting better
I wanna spend the rest of my life with you by my side
Forever and ever
Every little thing that you do
Baby I'm amazed by you

The smell of your skin
The taste of your kiss
The way you whisper in the dark
Your hair all around me, baby you surround me
You touch every place in my heart
Oh, it feels like the first time every time
I wanna spent the whole night in your eyes

I don't know how you do what you do
I'm so in love with you, it just keeps getting better
I wanna spend the rest of my life with you by my side
Forever and ever
Every little thing that you do
Baby I'm amazed by you

Every little thing that you do
I'm so in love with you
It just keeps getting better
I wanna spend the rest of my life with you by my side
Forever and ever
Every little thing that you do
Oh, every little thing that you do
Baby I'm amazed by you

Here With Me
I didn't hear you leave, I wonder how am I still here
I didn't want to move a thing, it might change my memory
Oh I am what I am, I'll do what I want, but I can't hide
I won't go, I won't sleep, I can't breathe, until you're resting here with me
I won't leave, I can't hide, I cannot be, until you're resting here with me
I don't want to call my friends, they might wake me from this dream
And I can't leave this bed, risk forgetting all that's been
Oh I am what I am, I'll do what I want, but I can't hide
I won't go, I won't sleep, I can't breathe, until you're resting here with me
I won't leave, I can't hide, I cannot be, until you're resting here with me


dido.....first song we listened to together
 
Dragon

I remember the first night we danced to that, it's one of my favorite moments with you, and there were many. I love you so much and look forward to dancing in the dark with you again real soon sweetie. I miss you so much.. I am amazed by you..





P.S. The hair part of that was really true huh? LOL..
 
john mayer......always think of her when i hear this song

YOUR BODY IS A WONDERLAND

We got the afternoon
You got this room for two
One thing I've left to do
Discover me
Discovering you


One mile to every inch of
Your skin like porcelain
One pair of candy lips and
Your bubblegum tongue


And if you want love
We'll make it
Swimming a deep sea
Of blankets
Take all your big plans
And break 'em
This is bound to be a while


Your body Is a wonderland
Your body is a wonder (I'll use my hands)
Your body Is a wonderland


Something 'bout the way your hair falls in your face
I love the shape you take when crawling towards the pillowcase
You tell me where to go and
Though I might leave to find it
I'll never let your head hit the bed
Without my hand behind it


you want love?
We'll make it
Swimming a deep sea
Of blankets
Take all your big plans
And break 'em
This is bound to be a while


Your body Is a wonderland
Your body is a wonder (I'll use my hands)
Your body Is a wonderland


Damn baby
You frustrate me
I know you're mine all mine all mine
But you look so good it hurts sometimes


Your body Is a wonderland
Your body is a wonder (I'll use my hands)
Your body Is a wonderland
Your body is a wonderland

Mine and Slow's song. :)

All Time High
Rita Coolidge


All I wanted was a sweet distraction for an hour or two,
Had no intention to do the things we've done.
Funny how it always goes with love, when you don't look, you find -
But then we're two of a kind, we move as one.

We're an all time high, we'll change all that's gone before.
Doing so much more than falling in love.
On an all time high, we'll take on the world and wait.
So hold on tight, let the flight begin.

I don't want to waste a waking moment, I don't want to sleep.
I'm in so strong and so deep, and so are you.
In my time I've said these words before, but now I realize
My heart was telling me lies, for you they're true.

We're an all time high, we'll change all that's gone before. ...
So hold on tight, let the flight begin. We're an all time high.
 
This a beautiful song that sums it all up!

ENYA: Only Time

Who can say
Where the road goes,
Where the day flows?
Only time
And who can say if your love grows
As your heart chose?
Only time
Who can say why your heart sighs
As your love flies?
Only time
And who can say
Why your heart cries when your love lies?
Only time
Who can say
When the roads meet
That love might be
In your heart?
And who can say
When the day sleeps
If the night keeps
All your heart?

Night keeps all your heart

Who can say if your love grows
As your heart chose?
Only time
And who can say where the road goes,
Where the day flows?
Only time

Who knows? Only time
Who knows? Only time
 
Possession

Did you know Sarah wrote this song about a man who stalked her? She was very frightened when she wrote it... the words written in his letter to her were:

"I would be the one
to hold you down
kiss you so hard
I'll take your breath away
and after, I'd wipe away the tears...
just close your eyes dear."

I love the song... it's beautiful, but still gives me chills each time I listen to it.
 
i know sweetlola it has a very different meaning to what it means to lisa and i


it is a sad beautiful song and thats exactly what our lives were like alot of the time when we were having our long distance realationship ... sad and beautiful


i think often a song can have a different meaning for the person who is listening to the person that wrote the song ... ive heard sarah say that before too

I just re-read my post as I came back to this thread. It sounded cold, which is not at all the way I intended it. I have always loved that song and am a huge fan of Sarah. I thought it was interesting when I heard her talking about writing Possession in an interview and spoke of her experiences. We all interpret songs in our own ways... to relate to our lives. This is one of the many things that makes us all so very unique. I think it's wonderful that you two share a song, so that when you're very far away... you have that connection to each other any time you feel the least bit lonesome. A song can make me sad, make me smile... make me remember great times I've had... and make me feel the warmth of loved ones that I miss...
 
no no you didnt sound cold at all :) ... i knew what you meant and i had heard the same thing after it had "become" our song


i think shes a great song writer and there is a lot of her other songs that remind me of things to do with my life and my relationship with lisa


sweet surrender is another one that is very special to us

advice for other people who have long distance relationships music really can help
