Say It All In A Song

[whspr]

There are so many songs I hear each day that either say how I'm feeling about something or jive with my mood...so I thought when we all hear one or think of one we can just come here and post...give an explanation of why...or just let us guess the mood...
Have fun with it!

This song makes me want to just stay in bed and make
love all day...<big sigh>(not to mention, the singer is a hottie)

"Raining On Sunday" (Golden Road)----Keith Urban


It ticks just like a Timex
It never lets up on you
Who said life was easy
The job is never through
It'll run us 'til we're ragged
It'll harden our hearts
And love could use a day of rest
Before we both start falling apart

Pray that it's raining on Sunday
Stormin' like crazy
We'll hide under the covers all afternoon
Baby whatever comes Monday
Can take care of itself
'Cause we got better things that we could do
When it's raining on Sunday

Your love is like religion
A cross in Mexico
And your kiss is like the innocence
Of a prayer nailed to a door
Oh surrender in much sweeter
When we both let it go
Let the water wash our bodies clean
And love wash our souls

Pray that it's raining on Sunday
Stormin' like crazy
We'll hide under the covers all afternoon
Baby whatever comes Monday
Can take care of itself
'Cause we got better things that we could do
When it's raining on Sunday

Pray that it's raining on Sunday
Stormin' like crazy
We'll hide under the covers all afternoon
Baby whatever comes Monday
Can take care of itself
'Cause we got better things that we could do
When it's raining on Sunday
When it's raining on Sunday
When it's raining on Sunday
Let it rain

For some reason, this song keeps haunting me .....I think I've been there.....

"Youll Think Of Me" (Golden Road)---Keith Urban


I woke up early this morning around 4am
With the moon shining bright as headlights on the interstate
I pulled the covers over my head and tried to catch some sleep
But thoughts of us kept keeping me awake
Ever since you found yourself in someone else's arms
I've been tryin' my best to get along
But that's OK
There's nothing left to say, but

Take your records, take your freedom
Take your memories I don't need'em
Take your space and take your reasons
But you'll think of me
And take your cat and leave my sweater
'Cause we have nothing left to weather
In fact I'll feel a whole lot better
But you'll think of me, you'll think of me

I went out driving trying to clear my head
I tried to sweep out all the ruins that my emotions left
I guess I'm feeling just a little tired of this
And all the baggage that seems to still exist
It seems the only blessing I have left to my name
Is not knowing what we could have been
What we should have been
So

Take your records, take your freedom
Take your memories I don't need'em
Take your space and take your reasons
But you'll think of me
And take your cat and leave my sweater
'Cause we have nothing left to weather
In fact I'll feel a whole lot better
But you'll think of me

Someday I'm gonna run across your mind
Don't worry, I'll be fine
I'm gonna be alright
While you're sleeping with your pride
Wishing I could hold you tight
I'll be over you
And on with my life

So take your records, take your freedom
Take your memories I don't need'em
And take your cat and leave my sweater
'Cause we have nothing left to weather
In fact I'll feel a whole lot better
But you'll think of me

So take your records, take your freedom
Take your memories I don't need'em
Take your space and all your reasons
But you'll think of me
And take your cat and leave my sweater
'Cause we got nothing left to weather
In fact I'll feel a whole lot better
But you'll think of me, you'll think of me, yeah

And you're gonna think of me
Oh someday baby, someday

(this is for someone I can't forget...)

THIS ONE'S FOR YOU

This one'll never sell
They'll never understand
I don't even sing it well
I try - but I just can't get it right
But I sing it every night
And I fight to keep it in
'Cause , this one's for you
This one's for you

I've done a hundred songs
from fantasies to lies
But this one's so real for me
That I'm the one who cries
But I sing it every night
And fight to hide the tears
'Cause, this one's for you
This one's for you.

This one's for you --wherever you are
To say that nothing's been the same
Since we've been apart
This one's for all the love we once knew
Like everything else I have
This one's for you.

I've got it all, it seems
For all it means to me
But I sing of things I miss
And things that used to be
And wonder every night
If you might just miss me too
And, I sing for you
I sing for you...

This one's for you--wherever I go
To say the things I should have said
Things that you should know
This one's to say, that all I can do
Is hope that you will hear me sing
Cause , this one's for you
This one's for you
Wherever you are.

This is one of the shortest songs and yet it says a great deal.

Color My World - Chicago

As time goes on, I realize
Just what you mean to me.
And now, now that you're near,
Promise your love that I've waited to share
And dreams of our moments together.
Color my world with hopes of loving you.

 

[Icey*Fire]

(this song just moves me...)

SOMEHWERE IN THE NIGHT

Time
You found time enough to love
and I found love enough to hold you
So tonight
I'll stir the fire you feel inside
Until the flames of love enfold you
Laying beside you lost in the feeling
so glad you opened my door
come with me
Somewhere in the night we will know
Everything lovers can know

You're my song
Music too magic to end
I'll play you over and over again
Loving so warm
Moving so right
Closing our eyes and feeling alive
We'll just go on burning bright
Somewhere in the night.

You'll sleep
When the moning comes
And i'll lie and watch you sleeping
And you'll smile
When you dream about the night
Like it's a secret you've been keeping
Laying beside you lost in the feeling
So glad you opened my door.

You're my song
Music too magic to end
I'll play you over and over again
Loving so warm
Moving so right
Closing our eyes and feeling alive
We'll just go on burning bright
Somewhere in the night
we'll just go on buring bright
Somewhere in the night.

That song is .....I can't describe. I often find myself singing it.
Many people flash through my mind while doing so. Funny
how things change.

Slow Dancing - Johnny Rivers

It's late at night,
and we're all alone.
Just the music
on the radio.

No ones coming,
No ones on the telephone.
Just me and you
and the lights down low.

Slow dancing,
Swaying to the music.
Slow dancing
Just me and my girl.
Slow dancing
Swayin gto the music.
No one else in the whole wid world -
Just you girl.

We just flow together,
when the lights are low.
Shadows dancing,
all across the wall.

Music playing,
so soft and low.
The rest of the world,
so far away.

And smile when we're -

Slow dancing,
Swaying to the music.
Slow dancing
Just me and my girl.
Slow dancing
Swayin gto the music.
No one else in the whole wide world -
Just you girl.

Hold me,
Oh, oh, hold me.
Then never let me go.

As we dance
together in the dark.
So much love
in this heart of mine.

Whisper to me,
hold me tight.
You're the one
that I thought I would never find....


Slow dancing,
Swaying to the music.
Slow dancing
Just me and my girl.
Slow dancing
Swayin gto the music.
No one else in the whole wide world -
Just you girl.

Have I told you lately that I love you. - Van Morrison (love the verison with the Chieftans)

Have I told you lately that I love you
Have I told you there’s no one above you
Fill my heart with gladness
Take away my sadness
Ease my troubles, that’s what you do

Oh the morning sun in all it’s glory
Greets the day with hope and comfort too
And you fill my life with laughter
You can make it better
Ease my troubles that’s what you do

There’s a love that’s divine
And it’s yours and it’s mine
Like the sun at the end of the day
We should give thanks and pray to the one

Have I told you lately that I love you
Have I told you there’s no one above you
Fill my heart with gladness
Take away my sadness
Ease my troubles, that’s what you do

There’s a love that’s divine
And it’s yours and it’s mine
And it shines like the sun
At the end of the day we will give thanks
And pray to the one

Have I told you lately that I love you
Have I told you there’s no one above you
Fill my heart with gladness
Take away my sadness
Ease my troubles, that’s what you do

Take away my sadness
Fill my life with gladness
Ease my troubles that’s what you do
Fill my life with gladness
Take away my sadness
Ease my troubles that’s what you do.

Last Night Of The World



In a place that won't let us feel
In a life where nothing seems real
I have found you
I have found you
In a world that's moving too fast
In a world where nothing can last
I will hold you
I will hold you


Our lives will change when tomorrow comes
Tonight our hearts drown the distant drums
and we have music all right
tearing the night


A song
played on a solo saxophone
A crazy sound, a lonely sound
A cry that tells us love goes on and on
played on a solo saxophone
It's telling me
to hold you tight
and dance like it's the last night of the world


On the other side of the earth
There's a place where life still has worth
I will take you
I'll go with you
You won't believe all the things you'll see
I know 'cause you'll see them all with me


If we're together that's when
we'll hear it again


A song
played on a solo saxophone
A crazy sound, a lonely sound
A cry that tells us love goes on and on
Played on a solo saxophone
It's telling me
to hold you tight
and dance like it's the last night of the world


Dreams
they were all I ever knew
Dreams
you won't need when I'm through
Anywhere
we may be
I will sing with you
a song...


A song played on a solo saxophone
So stay with me
and hold me tight
and dance
like it's the last night of the world

You've Got a Friend Lyrics

When you're down and troubled
and you need a helping hand
and nothing, whoa nothing is going right.
Close your eyes and think of me
and soon I will be there
to brighten up even your darkest nights.


You just call out my name,
and you know wherever I am
I'll come running, oh yeah baby
to see you again.
Winter, spring, summer, or fall,
all you have to do is call
and I'll be there, yeah, yeah, yeah.
You've got a friend.


If the sky above you
should turn dark and full of clouds
and that old north wind should begin to blow
Keep your head together and call my name out loud
and soon I will be knocking upon your door.


You just call out my name and you know wherever I am
I'll come running to see you again.
Winter, spring, summer or fall
all you got to do is call
and I'll be there, yeah, yeah, yeah.


Hey, ain't it good to know that you've got a friend?
People can be so cold.
They'll hurt you and desert you.
Well they'll take your soul if you let them.
Oh yeah, but don't you let them.


You just call out my name and you know wherever I am
I'll come running to see you again.
Oh babe, don't you know that,
Winter spring summer or fall,
Hey now, all you've got to do is call.
Lord, I'll be there, yes I will.
You've got a friend.
You've got a friend.
Ain't it good to know you've got a friend.
Ain't it good to know you've got a friend.
You've got a friend.

Another song that says how I feel,
just wish I could do it!!!

Chorus: TAKE THIS JOB AND SHOVE IT/ I AINT WORKIN HERE NO MORE
MY WOMAN DONE LEFT AND TOOK ALL OF THE REASONS I WAS WORKING FOR
YOU BETTER NOT TRY TO STAND IN MY WAY/ WHEN I WALK OUT THE DOOR
TAKE THIS JOB AND SHOVE IT/ I AINT WORKIN HERE NO MORE

I BEEN WORKING IN THIS FACTORY/ PRETTY CLOSE TO 15 YEARS
IVE SOME OF MY BEST FRIENDS WOMEN/ STANDING IN A POOL OF TEARS
IVE SEEN A LOT OF KINFOLKS DYING/ I HAD A LOT OF BILLS TO PAY
LORD, ID GIVE THE SHIRT RIGHT OFFIN MY BACK/ IF I HAD THE NERVE TO SAY:

Repeat Chorus

THE FOREMAN IS A REGULAR S.O.B. AND THE NIGHT BOSS, HES A FOOL
HE GOT HIMSELF A BRAND NEW FLATTOP HAIRCUT
LORD, HE REALLY THINKS THATS COOL
ONE OF THESE DAYS IM GONNA BLOW MY TOP
AND THERES GONNA BE HELL TO PAY
I CANT WAIT TO SEE THEIR FACES WHEN I GET THE NERVE TO SAY

Repeat Chorus

TAKE THIS JOB AND SHOVE IT . .

EVERYONE KNOWS WHAT B.C. IS,
THIS SONG REMINDS ME OF 10/09/2002

(BEFORE JENNY)


All The Best (1987)


LYRICS I can wait another day until I call you
You’ve only got my heart on a string and everything a flutter
But another lonley night (and another, and another)
Might take forever(and another, and another)
We’ve only got each other to blame
It’s all the same to me love
’cause I know what I feel to be right
No more lonely nights
No more lonely nights
You’re my guiding light
Day or night I’m always there

May I never miss the thrill of being near you
And if it takes a couple of years
To turn your tears to laughter
I will do what I feel to be right

No more lonely nights
Never be another
No more lonely nights
You’re my guiding light
Day or night I’m always there
And I won’t go away until you tell me so
No I’ll never go away

Yes I know what I feel to be right
No more lonely nights
Never be another
No more lonely nights
You’re my guiding light
Day or night I’m always there
And I won’t go away until you tell me so
No I’ll never go away
I won’t go away until you tell me so
No I’ll never go away
No more lonely nights, no no ...

Permission To Shine - Bachelor Girl

Hey, what would you say
If I can't play the hero tonight
Cos lately I've been feelin' like
I can't get anything right

I've been fading into the woodwork again
And I'm feelin' like I just wanna hide
But guess what
I'm gonna try something just a little bit different this time

I'm gonna give myself permission to shine
I'm gonna shine so bright
Gonna make every head wanna turn
You're finally gonna see me
Give myself permission to shine
Gonna light up the night
Shine a little of my light on the world

I've been crazy
I've been holdin' myself back for so long
But I've got so much I can give
Don't wanna be afraid to be wrong

You know I'm not too good at too many things
But I've been gettin' real good at gettin' down on myself
But guess what
I'm gonna try to break free from this prison I"ve built

I'm gonna give myself permission to shine
I'm gonna shine so bright
Gonna make every head wanna turn
You're finally gonna see me
Give myself permission to shine
Gonna light up the night
Shine a little of my light on the world

Oh, that's right
I'm gonna try something just a little bit different this time

I'm gonna give myself permission to shine
I'm gonna shine so bright
Gonna make every head wanna turn
You're finally gonna see me
Give myself permission to shine
Gonna light up the night
Shine a little of my light on the world

I wanna light up the night
Shine a little of my light on the world

The Looking Glass.

There's a port on the Western bay and it serves 100 ships a day, lonely sailors from far away are serving whiskey and rye.

The sailor said Brandy your a fine girl, what a good wife you would be but the love of my lady is the sea.
