The Rose...

[Ravenloft]

*Okay, I am sure you all have heard this many a time but I felt compeled to post it anyway... (Wiping a tear away.)*




The Rose

Some say love, it is a river
that drowns the tender reed.
Some say love, it is a razor
that leaves your soul to bleed.
Some say love, it is a hunger,
an endless aching need.
I say love, it is a flower,
and you it's only seed.

It's the heart afraid of breaking
that never learns to dance.
It's the dream afraid of waking
that never takes the chance.
It's the one who won't be taken,
who cannot seem to give,
and the sould afraid of dyin'
that never learns to live.

When the night has been too lonely
and the road has been to long,
and you think that love is only
for the lucky and the strong,
just remember in the winter
far beneath the winter snows
lies the seed that with the sun's love
in the spring becomes the rose.

 

[Ksss]

*sniffling* That's one of my fav songs...

 

[willfulbrat]

Ravenloft, that is a great song. Right now I think I'm with those who think love's a razor. Is spring here yet?

 

[Beebeeblue]

Every time I hear that song, it gives me chills.

Ok, so Im not normal!

 

[Ravenloft]

Ksss - Maybe not my fave song but I love it none the less.

Willfulbrat - I have always found it to be a hunger... *Peeking out the window.* I think spring is toying with us... Like a mischevious first date... Heheh!

Beebeeblue - I have been known to get shivers as well, but this song chokes me up more than anything.

 

[Wizard]

I like back in black myself....................

 

[Ravenloft]

Thats nice Wizard.

 

[Ravenloft]

Okay, so I suppose I will make this a Lyrics thread.

I am sure I have some of this song interperated wrong but I had to catch it all by ear, I think I got it close enough that its correct for the most part... Here goes...




We Three, by Soul Asylum.




"I was tapping my foot on a friday night to my favorite band.
I was pushed aside. I said: *Hey, don't push me, oh no, no one pushes me.*
when I was face to face with the woman I would have married.
And she gave me this look I could not believe, and the cold stare remained.
I wanted to leave.

Yeah I do believe anger is offset by sorrow.
what you destroy today you might regret tomorow.
When your young and defensive it comes off offensive.
And its hard to repay all the tollerance that you borrowed.

The lasting relationship slips right off the pier.
Who wears the pants, its faded, but clear.

She's your girlfriend and she ain't too fond of me.
I guess that thats the way it was ment to be.
There we were, just we three, you, your girl friend, and me.

I've known you forever, you two just met, so easilly amused how fast we forget.
In my jealousy, my self rightous greed she's a bit like a book I'm too far sighted to read.

I may wish you the best, I'll some times feel the need to say "Remember me."
Yeah, she's your girl friend as far as we can see, does she look at you like she looks
at me.

And here we are, just we three, you, your girlfriend, and me.
She's your girlfriend, its getting harder to see, weather just take her home or better just
leave her be.
When she walks out that door you'll come looking for me."

Find the lyrics to *Satisfy You* by R.Kelly and Puff Daddy.
When I find the man who means every word in that song, I will marry him.

 

[Ravenloft]

Here you go Angel...




Puff Daddy featuring R. Kelly - Satisfy You

All I want is somebody who's gonna love me for me
Somebody I can love for them
All this money don't mean shit
If you ain't got nobody to share it with
Love rules the world, you feel me

1 - [R. Kelly]
He don't understand you like I do
No he'll never make love to you like I do
So give it to me
Cause I can show you 'bout a real love
And I can promise anything that I do
Is just to satisfy you

[Puffy]
When it hurt I ease the pain girl, caress your frame
Get them worries off your brain girl, I'm in your corner
Do what you want, it's your thing girl, I persist and try but
We one in the same girl, it ain't a game
So I can't play with you, I wanna lay with you
Stay with you, pray with you, grow old and gray with you
In good and bad times, we'll always make it through
Cause what we got is true, no matter what they say to you
I could straight lace you, not just appearance
Stimulate your mind, strengthen your spirits
Be that voice of reason when you ain't tryna hear it
You want it but you fear it, but you love it when you near it
Sit her on the sofa, get a little closer
Touch you right, do it like a man's suppose to
Knew you was the one, that's why I chose you
Cause you get down for yours and ride like a soldier

Repeat 1

Your soul ain't a toy, you ain't dealin' with a boy
Feel emptiness inside? I can fill that void
When you spend time with your woman and listen
It shines more than any bagguette diamond can glisten
I can't impress you with the cars and the wealth
Cause any woman with will and drive can get it herself
I'd rather show you it's heartfelt, make your heart melt
And prove to you you're more important than anything else
Worthwhile, special like my first child
When I see your face it's always like the first time
Our eyes met, I knew we'd be together in a tri-jet
I wanna give you things that I didn't buy yet
Hold you, mold you, don't know, let me show you
Ain't no tellin' what we could grow to
Let it be known, I told you
And I'mma be there for whatever you go through, my love's true

Repeat 1

[R. Kelly]
Don't let him sing you a sad song (No baby)
Waiting for love like this too long
(You don't have to wait, you don't have to wait on him, baby)
All that you need I can give you
(You don't have to wait, you don't have to wait on)
I do, satisfy you
(You don't have to wait on him)

[Puffy]
I'm the light when you can't see
I'm that air when you can't breathe
I'm that feeling when you can't leave
Some doubt, some believe, some lie, cheat, and deceive
So it's only you and me
When you weak, I'll make you strong, here's where you belong
I ain't perfect, but I promise I won't do you wrong
Keep you away from harm, my love is protected
I'll wrap you in my arms so you'll never feel neglected
I'll just make you aware of what we have is rare
In the moment of despair, I'm the courage when you're scared
Loyal, down for you, soon as I saw you
Wanted to be there cause I could hold it down for you
Be around for you, plant seeds in the soil
Make love all night, bending bed coils
You're a queen, therefore I treat you royal
This is all for you, cause I simply adore you

Repeat 1 until fade

[Puff]
This one right here goes out to all my sisters

 

[Angel]

THANK YOU!

I'm the light when you can't see
I'm that air when you can't breathe
I'm that feeling when you can't leave
Some doubt, some believe, some lie, cheat, and deceive
So it's only you and me
When you weak, I'll make you strong, here's where you belong
I ain't perfect, but I promise I won't do you wrong
Keep you away from harm, my love is protected
I'll wrap you in my arms so you'll never feel neglected
I'll just make you aware of what we have is rare
In the moment of despair, I'm the courage when you're scared
Loyal, down for you, soon as I saw you
Wanted to be there cause I could hold it down for you
Be around for you, plant seeds in the soil
Make love all night, bending bed coils
You're a queen, therefore I treat you royal
This is all for you, cause I simply adore you




That entire verse makes me melt.

Your welcome Angel.




The Cure - Burn
Album: The Crow Soundtrack
Album type: OST


"Don't look don't look" the shadows breathe
Whispering me away from you
"Don't wake at night to watch her sleep
You know that you will always lose
This trembling
Adored
Tousled bird mad girl... "
But every night I burn
But every night I call your name
Every night I burn
Every night I fall again

"Oh don't talk of love" the shadows purr
Murmuring me away from you
"Don't talk of worlds that never were
The end is all that's ever true
There's nothing you can ever say
Nothing you can ever do... "
Still every night I burn
Every night I scream your name
Every night I burn
Every night the dream's the same
Every night I burn
Waiting for my only friend
Every night I burn
Waiting for the world to end

"Just paint your face" the shadows smile
Slipping me away from you
"Oh it doesn't matter how you hide
Find you if we're wanting to
So slide back down and close your eyes
Sleep a while
You must be tired... "
But every night I burn
Every night I call your name
Every night I burn
Every night I fall again
Every night I burn
Scream the animal scream
Every night I burn
Dream the crow black dream

Dream the crow black dream...

 

[cheekyminx]

Ok this is one of my favourites. Its a love song.

Flamingos walk, and sway in peace
Seeing this, it makes my troubles cease
The sun is hiding, leaving a pink scar
That stretches right across the sky
That's all we've seen so far
And all I do is look into your eyes,

For that special touch of paradise
Just a touch, a touch of paradise
Just a special touch of paradise,

You hold my hand, thats when we kiss
And it doesnt take long no,until I get the gist
Of this love that stretches out across the land
Where rainbows flash, as we're walking in the sand.
And all I do is look into your eyes,

For that special touch of paradise
Just a touch, a touch of paradise
Just a special touch of paradise,

A touch of spring, of autumn sweet
Well the trees vibrate when our eyes meet
And I think of all the love that we have been making
You touch my hand and I woke up shaking
And all I do is look into your eyes,


For that special touch of paradise
Just a touch, a touch of paradise
Just a special touch of paradise,

Chef... Thank you for getting me hooked on this song fella!

Loneliness

When you've had enough
when you've got it bad enough
and you can't let go
when it comes to blows
and you start to overflow
but you can't get home
it's a subtle kind of cruel
it taps my spine
here I'm drawing a line
I'm asking you please
don't you wanna be
happy with me?
don't you wanna be
happy with me?
I'm afraid if you don't come around soon
I'll turn sadder than you ever were
I know the loneliness is worse
you've gotta try...
December's all alone
and he's calling me on the phone
but he sounds so cold...
he says he loves me so
but how would I ever know?
certain words grow old
it's a vicious kind of catch
it sides me blind
now I'm out of my mind
I wanna scream
don't you wanna be
happy with me?
don't you wanna be
happy with me?
I'm afraid if you don't come around soon
I'll turn sadder than you ever were
the loneliness is worse
you've gotta try...
love liked me long ago
it had a way of making everyone the same
but how the angels
(how the angels)
must laugh inside
(singing with me now)
with me screaming with you
and needing you this way
(needing you this way)
oh, why don't you wanna be
happy with me?
don't you wanna be
happy with me?
I'm afraid if you don't come around soon
I'll turn sadder than you ever were
I know the loneliness is worse
you've gotta try...
to stay mine
all the way
don't you wanna be
happy with me?
don't you wanna be
happy with me?
I'm afraid if you don't come around soon
I'll turn sadder than you ever were
it's got a way of making everyone the same
it's got a way of making everyone the same
it's got a way of making everyone the same
it's got a way of making everyone the same

Loneliness is worse

Its bad when I am almost in tears reading the lyrics again... I tell you buddy there is more where that came from

 

[Beebeeblue]

Beebeeblue - I have been known to get shivers as well, but this song chokes me up more than anything.

Ravenloft, you keep talking like that and the ladies will be fighting over you again. http://cwm.ragesofsanity.com/s/net8/ladys-man.gif

 

[Ravenloft]

*Looking around*

I don't see anyone fighting over me...

 

[Beebeeblue]

*Looking around*

I don't see anyone fighting over me...

Your time will come honey.

 

[Ravenloft]

Is that a threat or a promise?

 

[Svedish_Chef]

the time is now

you're my last breath you're a breath of fresh air to me
hi i'm empty tell me you care for me
you are the first thing and the last thing on my mind
in your arms i feel sunshine
on a promise a day dream yet to come
time is upon us oh but the night is young
flowers blossom in the wintertime
in your arms i feel sunshine
give up yourself unto the moment the time is now
give up yourself unto the moment let's make this moment last
you may find yourself out on a limb for me
could you except it as a part of your destiny?
i give all i have but it's not enough
and my patience is shot so i'm calling your bluff
and we gave it time all eyes are on the clock
but time takes too much time please make the waiting stop
and the atmosphere is charged in you i trust
and i feel no fear as i do as i must
tempted by fate but i won't hesitate
the time is now...and i can't wait
i've been empty too long took a chance and now it's gone
and the time has come and the night is young
the time is now... let's make this moment last
