Meaningful Lyrics

[Amethyst]

hmmm depressing




ah well I like this and I do...



Sometimes I don't say the right things to make you love me even more than you do.
Though I try, I just can't apologize for all the things I'm putting you through

I talk too much.
And that's why I'm doing in your head (tonight).

We talk too much.
Some things are better left unsaid (that's right)

My evil tongue,
does seem to run,
with a mind of it's own.
I must be cursed,
I always make it worse,
you may aswell just take me home

Sometimes I don't say the right things to make you love me even more than you do.
Though I try, I just can't apologize for all the things I'm putting you through

Well I know that you've been through it and you have your scars.
All the women are from Venus and the men are from Mars.
I could tell you everytime I admit the charge (so wrong).

Last thing I want to do is to cause you grief.
When I hide your clean soul from the dark beneath.
When it comes to the feeling I can make this brief (so strong)

Below the horizon suns dip.
We're playing our hand with one chip.
How could we think we had so little to lose.

And in the flights of fireflies.
There is a pattern recognised.
How could we think we had so little to lose

Sometimes I don't say the right things to make you love me even more than you do.
Though I try, I just can't apologize for all the things I'm putting you through.

Sometimes I don't say the right things to make you love me even more than you do.
Though I try, I just can't apologize for all the things I'm putting you through

And the breath I waste,
just to fill the space,
it has built a taste,
in your mouth everytime,
and yes I'm blessed,
and self-obsessed,
she gives you more,
but I give you less, and less

Well I know that you've been through it and you have your scars.
All the women are from Venus and the men are from Mars.
I could tell you everytime I admit the charge (so wrong).

Last thing I want to do is to cause you grief.
When I hide your clean soul from the dark beneath.
When it comes to the feeling I can make this brief (so strong)

She says I know you know what you do but you still keep doing it

[Solowka]

The tequila sun is rising
and the Harvey's Bristol moon is sinking
Put the Binatone on snooze
open up some Special Brews
and start drinking
to the biggest mess in town
then put on your dressing gown
screw your head on upside down
drink yourself into the ground
The bottles by the sink
they're the softest ****ing drinks on the market
Yes sir, the Thunderbirds have gone
the wagon's rolling on
and I'm on it
And there's no such thing as Dr. Seuss
vodka and tomato juice
Disneyland or dipsomania
pick a flavour
Anytime, anyplace, anywhere
there's a wonderful world you can share
Try agrophobic, schizophrenic,
paranoid attacks of panic
Epileptic fits of laughter
twenty five million mornings after
ANd there's no such thing as Dr. Seuss
vodka and tomato juice
Disneyland or dipsomania
name your poison
pick a flavour
Moonshine, firewater, Captain Morgan, Johnnie Walker,
Southern Comfort, mother's ruin, happy hours of homeless brewing
Galloways sore throat expectorant,
after-shave and disinfectant,
Parazone and Fairy Liquid,
if it's in a glass you'll drink it
Anytime, anyplace, anywhere
there's a wonderful world you can share

[Solowka]

Sorry for the double post but this is a classic

Wish I was too dead to cry
My self-affliction fades
Stones to throw at my creator
Masochists to which I cater
You don't need to bother;
I don't need to be
I'll keep slipping farther
But once I hold on,
I won't let go 'til it bleeds

Wish I was too dead to care
If indeed I cared at all
Never had a voice to protest
So you fed me **** to digest
I wish I had a reason;
my flaws are open season
For this, I gave up trying
One good turn deserves my dying

You don't need to bother;
I don't need to be
I'll keep slipping farther
But once I hold on,
I won't let go 'til it bleeds

Wish I'd died instead of lived
A zombie hides my face
Shell forgotten
with its memories
Diaries left
with cryptic entries

And you don't need to bother;
I don't need to be
I'll keep slipping farther
But once I hold on,
I won't let go 'til it bleeds

You don't need to bother;
I don't need to be
I'll keep slipping farther
But once I hold on:
I'll never live down my deceit

ahhh carter USM .... and escort mark II's ... they were the days

[RLJ]

Well the key to my survival

Was never in much doubt

The question was how I could keep sane

Trying to find a way out

Things were never easy for me

Peace of mind was hard to find

And I needed a place where I could hide

Somewhere I could call mine

I didn't think much about it

Til it started happening all the time

Soon I was living with the fear everyday

Of what might happen that night

I couldn't stand to hear the

Crying of my mother

And I remember when

I swore that, that would be the

Last they'd see of me

And I never went home again

They say that time is a healer

And now my wounds are not the same

I rang the bell with my heart in my mouth

I had to hear what he'd say

He sat me down to talk to me

He looked me straight in the eyes

He said:

You're no son, you're no son of mine

You're no son, you're no son of mine

You walked out, you left us behind

And you're no son, no son of mine

Oh, his words how they hurt me, I'll never forget it

And as the time, it went by, I lived to regret it

You're no son, you're no son of mine

But where should I go

And what should I do

You're no son, you're no son of mine

But I came here for help, oh I came here for you

Well the years they passed so slowly

I thought about him everyday

What would I do, if we passed on the street

Would I keep running away

In and out of hiding places

Soon I'd have to face the facts

We'd have to sit down and talk it over

And that would mean going back

They say that time is a healer

And now my wounds are not the same

I rang that bell with my heart in my mouth

I had to hear what he'd say

He sat me down to talk to me

He looked me straight in the eyes

He said:

You're no son, you're no son of mine

You're no son, you're no son of mine

When you walked out, you left us behind

And you're no son, you're no son of mine

Oh, his words how they hurt me, I'll never forget it

And as the time, it went by, I lived to regret it

You're no son, you're no son of mine

But where should I go and what should I do

You're no son, you're no son of mine

But I came here for help, oh I was looking for you

You're no son, you're no son of mine - oh

You're no son - ha yeah, ha yeah, ha yeah, ha yeah

You're no son, you're no son of mine - oh, oh..

[Solowka]

I'm not sure and I'm not asking
But I thought I heard you say
"I just walked past him"
But why can I never do anything before you go
I don't know

And outside the streets are empty
There was no time then
And now there's
Oh why do I never get the chance to say a word
When you're on your own

If there's nothing that I want more
Why do my steps get this small
When I reach your front door
And I wait outside for you to come back out
And your light goes out

You don't know me but I'm still here
And God the last time I saw you
You were, oh, this near
And there's a thousand things I wished I'd said and done
But the moment's gone

[Nattie]

THERE'S A VOICE,
THAT KEEPS ON CALLING ME.
DOWN THE ROAD,
IS WHERE I'LL ALWAYS BE.
EVERY STOP I MAKE,
I'LL MAKE A NEW FRIEND.
CAN'T STAY FOR LONG, JUST TURN AROUND AND I'M GONE AGAIN.

MAYBE TOMORROW, I'LL WANNA SETTLE DOWN,
UNTIL TOMORROW, I'LL JUST KEEP MOVING ON

DOWN THIS ROAD, THAT NEVER SEEMS TO END,
WHERE NEW ADVENTURE, LIES JUST AROUND THE BEND

SO IF YOU WANNA JOIN ME FOR A WHILE,
JUST GRAB YOUR HAT, COME TRAVEL LIGHT,
THAT'S HOBO STYLE.

MAYBE TOMORROW, I'LL WANT TO SETTLE DOWN,
UNTIL TOMORROW, THE WHOLE WORLD IS MY HOME

SO IF YOU WANNA JOIN ME FOR A WHILE,
JUST GRAB YOUR HAT, COME TRAVEL LIGHT,
THAT'S HOBO STYLE.

MAYBE TOMORROW, I'LL WANT TO SETTLE DOWN,
UNTIL TOMORROW, I'LL JUST KEEP MOVING ON.

Instrumental Bridge

MAYBE TOMORROW, I'LL WANT TO SETTLE DOWN,
UNTIL TOMORROW, I'LL JUST KEEP MOVING ON.

THERE'S A WORLD, THAT'S WAITING TO UNFOLD,
A BRAND NEW TALE, NO ONE HAS EVER TOLD,
WE'VE JOURNEY'D FAR BUT, YOU KNOW IT WON'T BE LONG,
WE'RE ALMOST THERE AND WE'VE PAID OUR FARE, WITH THE HOBO SONG.

MAYBE TOMORROW, I'LL WANT TO SETTLE DOWN,
UNTIL TOMORROW, I'LL JUST KEEP MOVING ON.

SO IF YOU WANNA JOIN ME FOR A WHILE,
JUST GRAB YOUR HAT, COME TRAVEL LIGHT,
THAT'S HOBO STYLE.

MAYBE TOMORROW I'LL FIND WHAT I CALL HOME,
UNTIL TOMORROW, YOU KNOW I'M FREE TO ROAM.

"Praise You In This Storm" (Casting Crowns)

I was sure by now
That You would have reached down
And wiped our tears away
Stepped in and saved the day
But once again, I say "Amen", and it's still raining

As the thunder rolls
I barely hear Your whisper through the rain
"I'm with you"
And as Your mercy falls
I raise my hands and praise the God who gives
And takes away

I'll praise You in this storm
And I will lift my hands
For You are who You are
No matter where I am
Every tear I've cried
You hold in Your hand
You never left my side
And though my heart is torn
I will praise You in this storm

I remember when
I stumbled in the wind
You heard my cry
You raised me up again
My strength is almost gone
How can I carry on
If I can't find You

As the thunder rolls
I barely hear You whisper through the rain
"I'm with you"
And as Your mercy falls
I raise my hands and praise the God who gives
And takes away

I lift my eyes unto the hills
Where does my help come from?
My help comes from the Lord
The Maker of Heaven and Earth

[Solowka]

Hello there the angel from my nightmare
The shadow in backround of the morgue
The unsespecting victim of darkness in the valley
We can live like Jack and Sally if we want
Where you can always find me
And we'll have Halloween on Christmas
And in the night we'll wish this never ends
We'll wish this never end

Where are you and I'm so sorry
I cannot sleep I cannot dream tonight
I need somebody and always
This sick strange darkness comes creeping on so haunting everytime
And as I stared I counted the webs from all the spiders
catching things and eating their insides
Like indecision to call you
And hear your voice of treason
Will you come home and stop this pain tonight
stop this pain tonight

Don't waste your time on me your already the voice inside my head(6x)

I miss you miss you(6x)

But that don't worry me,
Lord, in my eyes you're evrything"

Re: Meaningful Lyrics

Sara - the brilliant Dylon. Must be the best love song ever!

I laid on a dune, I looked at the sky,
When the children were babies and played on the beach.
You came up behind me, I saw you go by,
You were always so close and still within reach.

Sara, Sara,
Whatever made you want to change your mind?
Sara, Sara,
So easy to look at, so hard to define.

I can still see them playin' with their pails in the sand,
They run to the water their buckets to fill.
I can still see the shells fallin' out of their hands
As they follow each other back up the hill.

Sara, Sara,
Sweet virgin angel, sweet love of my life,
Sara, Sara,
Radiant jewel, mystical wife.

Sleepin' in the woods by a fire in the night,
Drinkin' white rum in a Portugal bar,
Them playin' leapfrog and hearin' about Snow White,
You in the marketplace in Savanna-la-Mar.

Sara, Sara,
It's all so clear, I could never forget,
Sara, Sara,
Lovin' you is the one thing I'll never regret.

I can still hear the sounds of those Methodist bells,
I'd taken the cure and had just gotten through,
Stayin' up for days in the Chelsea Hotel,
Writin' "Sad-Eyed Lady of the Lowlands" for you.

Sara, Sara,
Wherever we travel we're never apart.
Sara, oh Sara,
Beautiful lady, so dear to my heart.

How did I meet you? I don't know.
A messenger sent me in a tropical storm.
You were there in the winter, moonlight on the snow
And on Lily Pond Lane when the weather was warm.

Sara, oh Sara,
Scorpio Sphinx in a calico dress,
Sara, Sara,
You must forgive me my unworthiness.

Now the beach is deserted except for some kelp
And a piece of an old ship that lies on the shore.
You always responded when I needed your help,
You gimme a map and a key to your door.

Sara, oh Sara,
Glamorous nymph with an arrow and bow,
Sara, oh Sara,
Don't ever leave me, don't ever go.
