"Until You Come Back To Me (That's What I'm Gonna Do)"---
(written by Stevie Wonder,recorded by Aretha Franklin) Though you don't call anymore I sit and wait in vain I guess I'll rap on your door Tap on your window pane I want to tell you baby The changes I've been going through Missing you,listen you... Until you come back to me That's what I'm gonna do Why did you have to decide You had to set me free I'm gonna swallow my pride I'm gonna beg to (please baby please) see me I'm gonna walk by myself Just to prove that my love is true Oh,for you baby Until you come back to me That's what I'm gonna do Living for you my dear Is like living in a world of constant fear In my plea,I've got to make you see That our love is dying Although your phone you ignore Somehow I must explain I'm gonna rap on your door Tap on your window pane I'm gonna camp on your step Until I get through to you I've got to change your view baby Until you come back to me That's what I'm gonna do | |

Raining In My Heart
Buddy Holly The sun is out, the sky is blue There's not a cloud to spoil the view But it's raining, raining in my heart The weather man says "clear today" He doesn't know you've gone away And it's raining, raining in my heart Oh misery, misery What's gonna become of me? I tell my blues they mustn't show But soon these tears are bound to flow 'Cause it's raining, raining in my heart But it's raining, raining in my heart And it's raining, raining in my heart Oh misery, misery What's gonna become of me? I tell my blues they mustn't show But soon these tears are bound to flow 'Cause it's raining, raining in my heart Raining in my heart, raining in my heart .

Don't Let Me Be Lonely Tonight (James Taylor)
Do me wrong, do me right, Tell me lies but hold me tight, Save your goodbyes for the morning light, But don't let me be lonely tonight. Say goodbye and say hello, Sure enough good to see you, but it's time to go, Don't say yes but please don't say no, I don't want to be lonely tonight. Go away then, damn you, Go on and do as you please, You ain't gonna see me gettin' down on my knees. I'm undecided, and your heart's been divided, You've been turning my world upside down. Do me wrong, do me right (right now baby), Go on and tell me lies but hold me tight. Save your goodbyes for the morning light (morning light), But don't let me be lonely tonight. I don't want to be lonely tonight. No, no, I don't want to be lonely tonight. I don't want to be lonely tonight. | |

Another Grey Morning (James Taylor)
When I feel as though my love is sinking down The sun doesn't want to shine When it feels like she won't face another day Life is unkind She's frozen in time And here comes another grey morning A not so good morning after all She says "well, what am I to do today With too much time and so much sorrow" She hears the baby waking up downstairs She hears the foghorn calling out across the sound Repetition in the morning air Is just too much to bear And no one seems to care If another day goes creeping by Empty and ashamed Like an old unwanted memory That no one will claim The clouds with their heads on the ground She's gonna have to come down She said "move me, move me I'm locked up inside" Well, I didn't understand her Though God knows I tried She said "make me angry But just make me cry But no more grey morning I think I'd rather die" | |

The Last Day Of Our Acquaintance (Sinead O'Connor)
This is the last day of our acquaintance I will meet you later in somebody's office I'll talk but you won't listen to me I know what your answer will be I know you don't love me anymore You used to hold my hand when the plane took off Two years ago there just seemed so much more And I don't know what happened to our love Today's the day Our friendship has been stale And we will meet later to finalise the details Two years ago the seed was planted And since then you have taken me for granted But this is the last day of our acquaintance I will meet you later in somebody's office I'll talk but you won't listen to me I know your answer already But this is the last day of our acquaintance I will meet you later in somebody's office I'll talk but you won't listen to me I know your answer already I know your answer already I know your answer already | |

Company (Rickie Lee Jones)
I'll remember you too clearly But I'll survive another day Conversations to share When there's no one there I'll imagine what you'd say I'll see you in another life now, baby I'll free you in my dreams But when I reach across the galaxy I will miss your company Company I'll be looking for company Look and listen Through the years Someday you may hear me Still crying for company So now you're going off to live your life You say we'll meet each other now and then But we'll never be the same And I know I'll never have this chance again No, not like you So, I'll see you in another life now baby, I'll free you in my dreams But when I reach across the galaxy I will miss your company Company I'll be looking for company Look and listen Through the years Someday you may hear me Still crying for company | |

Something To Believe In
Poison Will I see him on the TV Preachin' 'bout the promised land He tells me to believe in Jesus And steals the money from my hand Some say he was a good man But Lord I think he sinned, yeah Twenty-two years of mental tears Cries a suicidal Vietnam vet Who fought a losing war on a foreign shore To find his country didn't want him back Their bullets took his best friend in Saigon Our lawyers took his wife and kids, no regrets In a time I don't remember In a war he can't forget He cried "Forgive me for what I've done there Cause I never meant the things I did" Chorus: And give me something to believe in If there's a Lord above And give me something to believe in Oh, Lord arise My best friend died a lonely man In some Palm Springs hotel room I got the call last Christmas Eve And they told me the news I tried all night not to break down and cry As the tears rolled down my face I felt so cold and empty Like a lost soul out of place And the mirror, mirror on the wall Sees my smile it fades again Chorus Sometimes I wish to God I didn't know now The things I didn't know then Road you gotta take me home Solo I drive by the homeless sleeping on a cold dark street Like bodies in an open grave Underneath the broken old neon sign That used to read Jesus Saves A mile away live the rich folks And I see how they're living it up While the poor they eat from hand to mouth The rich is drinkin' from a golden cup And it just makes me wonder Why so many lose, so few win Chorus You take the high road And I'll take the low road Sometimes I wish to God I didn't know now The things I didn't know then And give me something to believe in (Sad for me because a friend of mine from high school was shot and killed, along with his sister, by their father... this song was played at their funeral because it was his favorite). | |

River (Joni Mitchell)
It's coming on Christmas They're cutting down trees They're putting up reindeer And singing songs of joy and peace Oh I wish I had a river I could skate away on But it don't snow here It stays pretty green I'm going to make a lot of money Then I'm going to quit this crazy scene I wish I had a river I could skate away on I wish I had a river so long I would teach my feet to fly Oh I wish I had a river I could skate away on I made my baby cry He tried hard to help me You know, he put me at ease And he loved me so naughty Made me weak in the knees Oh I wish I had a river I could skate away on I'm so hard to handle I'm selfish and I'm sad Now I've gone and lost the best baby That I ever had Oh I wish I had a river I could skate away on I wish I had a river so long I would teach my feet to fly Oh I wish I had a river I made my baby say goodbye It's coming on Christmas They're cutting down trees They're putting up reindeer And singing songs of joy and peace I wish I had a river I could skate away on | |

Love Song For No One
John Mayer Staying home alone on a Friday Flat on the floor looking back On old love Or lack thereof After all the crushes are faded And all my wishful thinking was wrong I'm jaded I hate it I'm tired of being alone So hurry up and get here So tired of being alone So hurry up and get here Searching all my days just to find you I'm not sure who I'm looking for I'll know it When I see you Until then, I'll hide in my bedroom Staying up all night just to write A love song for no one I'm tired of being alone So hurry up and get here So tired of being alone So hurry up and get here I could have met you in a sandbox I could have passed you on the sidewalk Could I have missed my chance And watched you walk away? I'm tired of being alone So hurry up and get here So tired of being alone So hurry up and get here You'll be so good You'll be so good for me | |

This song is sad because he justs want to be better at basketball and he wants to be able to score with high-class women but neither are happening.
Also, he is forced to drive a hatchback with an 8track player and a flat-tire in the backseat and everywhere he goes he gets laughed at. Skeelo: I Wish Hello I wish I was little bit taller, I wish I was a baller I wish I had a girl who looked good I would call her I wish I had a rabbit in a hat with a bat and a '64 Impala I wish I was like six-foot-nine So I could get with Leoshi Cause she don't know me but yo she's really fine You know I see her all the time Everywhere I go, and even in my dreams I can scheme of ways to make her mine Cause I know she's livin phat Her boyfriend's tall and he plays ball So how am I gonna compete with that 'Cause when it comes to playing basketball I'm always last to be picked And in some cases never picked at all So I just lean upon the wall Or sit up in the bleachers with the rest of the girls Who came to watch their men ball Dag y'all! I never understood Why the jocks get the fly girls And me I get the hood rats I tell 'em scat, skittle, skibobble Got hit with a bottle And put in the hospital, for talkin' that mess I confess it's a shame when you livin' in a city That's the size of a box and nobody knows yo' name Glad I came to my senses Like quick-quick got sick-sick to my stomach Overcome with my thoughts of me and her together Right? So when I asked her out she said I wasn't her type I wish I was little bit taller, I wish I was a baller I wish I had a girl who looked good I would call her I wish I had a rabbit in a hat with a bat and a '64 Impala I wish I was little bit taller, I wish I was a baller I wish I had a girl who looked good I would call her I wish I had a rabbit in a hat with a bat and a '64 Impala I wish I had a brand-new car So far, I got this hatchback And everywhere I go, yo I gets laughed at And when I'm in my car I'm laid back I got an 8-track and a spare tire in the backseat But that's flat And do you really wanna know what's really wack, What See I can't even get a date So, what do you think of that? I heard that prom night is the bomb night With a hood rat you can hold tight But really tho' on figuero When I'm in my car I can't even get a hello Well so many people wanna cruise Crenshaw on Sunday Well then I'm gonna have to get in my car and go You know I take the 110 to the 105 Get off on Crenshaw tell my homies look alive Cause it's hard to survive Livin' in a concrete jungle and These girls just keep passin' me by She looks fly, she looks fly Makes me say my, my, my I wish I was little bit taller, I wish I was a baller I wish I had a girl who looked good I would call her I wish I had a rabbit in a hat with a bat and a '64 Impala I wish I was little bit taller, I wish I was a baller I wish I had a girl who looked good I would call her I wish I had a rabbit in a hat with a bat and a '64 Impala I wish I was a little bit taller... I wish I was a baller... I wish I was a little bit taller y'all I wish I was a baller (3) Hey, I wish I had my way 'Cause everyday would be a Friday You could even speed on the highway I would play ghetto games Name my kids ghetto names Little Mookie, big Al, Lorraine Yo you know that's on the real So if you're down on your luck Then you should know just how I feel Cause if you don't want me around See I go simple, I go easy, I go greyhound Hey, you, what's that sound? Everybody look what's going down Ahhh, yes, ain't that fresh? Everybody wants to get down like that I wish I was little bit taller, I wish I was a baller I wish I had a girl who looked good I would call her I wish I had a rabbit in a hat with a bat and a '64 Impala I wish I was little bit taller, I wish I was a baller I wish I had a girl who looked good I would call her I wish I had a rabbit in a hat with a bat and a '64 Impala I wish, I wish, I wish... But actually for a stupid song I quote it quite often. Anytime anyone starts a sentence with the words "I wish" I jump in and say "I was a little bit taller". .

Here's a switch!!! Usually I'm talking about Prince on the Corrs MB!
One of my fave Corrs songs. Very haunting lyrics and melody. Andrea Corr has one of the most beautiful voices in music, And...she doesn't know it yet, but she's my future wife! Forgiven Not Forgotten/The Corrs All alone, staring on, watching her life go by, When her days are grey and her nights are black, Different shades of mundane and the one eyed furry toy That lies upon the bed has often heard her cry And heard her whisper out a name long forgiven, but not forgotten, You're forgiven not forgotten You're forgiven not forgotten You're forgiven not forgotten You're not forgotten A bleeding heart torn apart, left on an icy grave, In the room where they once lay, face to face, Nothing could get in their way, but now the memories of the man Are haunting her days and the craving never fades, She's still dreaming of a man long forgiven, but not forgotten, You're forgiven not forgotten You're forgiven not forgotten You're forgiven not forgotten You're not forgotten Still alone, staring on, wishing her life goodbye As she goes searching for the man long forgiven, but not forgotten, You're forgiven not forgotten You're forgiven not forgotten You're forgiven not forgotten You're forgiven not forgotten You're forgiven not forgotten You're forgiven not forgotten You're forgiven not forgotten You're forgiven not forgotten You're not forgotten You're not forgotten --If a man is considered guilty for what goes on in his mind, then give me the electric chair for all my future crimes.-- Electric Chair/Batman/Prince | |

Ex-Moderator | This song always makes me sad...
Fred Jones Part 2- Ben Folds Fred sits alone at his desk in the dark There's an awkward young shadow that waits in the hall He's cleared all his things and he's put them in boxes Things that remind him that life has been good Twenty-five years He's worked at the paper A man's here to take him downstairs And I'm sorry, Mr. Jones It's time There was no party, there were no songs Cause today's just a day like the day that he started Noone is left here that knows his first name And life barrels on like a runaway train Where the passengers change They don't change anything You get off, someone else can get on And I'm sorry Mr. Jones It's time Streetlight shines through the shades Casting lines on the floor and lines on his face He reflects on the day Fred gets his paints out and goes to the basement Projecting some slides onto a plain white Canvas and traces it Fills in the spaces He turns off the slides, and it doesn't look right Yeah, and all of these bastards Have taken his place He's forgotten but not yet gone And I'm sorry Mr. Jones And I'm sorry Mr. Jones And I'm sorry Mr. Jones It's time |

Desperado, by The Eagles
Desperado, why don't you come to your senses, You've been out ridin' fences, for so long now Oh,and you're a hard one, but i know you've got your reasons The things that are pleasin' you, can hurt you sometimes Don't you draw the Queen of Diamonds boy, she'll beat you if she's able You know the Queen of Hearts is always your best bet. Now it seems to me some fine things have been laid upon your table, But you only want the ones you can't get. Desperado, you ain't gettin' no younger, Your pain and your hunger, they're drivin' you home. And freedom, oh freedom, well that's just some people talkin Your prison is walkin' thru this world all alone. Don't your feet get cold in the wintertime? The sky won't snow, and the sun won't shine, It's hard to tell the nighttime from the day, And your losin' all your highs and lows, Ain't it funny how the feelin' goes...away? Desperado, why don't you come to your senses, Come down from your fences, open the gates, It may be rainin', but there's no rainbow above you, You'de better let somebody love you, LET SOMEBODY LOVE YOU, You'de better let somebody love you, before it's too late. Thanks for the laughs, arguments and overall enjoyment for the last umpteen years. It's time for me to retire from Prince.org and engage in the real world...lol. Above all, I appreciated the talent Prince. You were one of a kind. | |

"תפילה"
מאת: דגים בגינה תפילה ככה סתם מן הרוח לאדם גם אלוהים מבקש רחמים לפעמים רחמים מן האם מן האב ששכחתם מבנים שגדלו מצלילים שאבדו לעולם ובליל חוף קר בנווה המדבר קינת זכרונות של תקוות ישנות אבודות אז תשמע אלוהים הרי כולם מבקשים שם, בים האם אתה קיים? תשאר תפילה ככה סתם מן הרוח לאדם תשאר Sorry, it's in Hebrew. A song that was written by my friends in a group I was playing with. Basically it's a prayer to God. [This message was edited Thu Jan 9 4:27:04 PST 2003 by Heavenly] | |
