Mariah Carey duet with Luther Vandross -ENDLESS LOVE

love song

my love,
There's only you in my life
The only thing that's bright

My first love,
You're every breath that i take
You're every step i make

And i
(i-i-i-i-i)
I want to share
All my love with you
No one else will do...

And your eyes
Your eyes, your eyes
They tell me how much you care
Ooh yes, you will always be
My endless love

Two hearts,
Two hearts that beat as one
Our lives have just begun

Forever
(ohhhhhh)
I'll hold you close in my arms
I can't resist your charms

And love
Oh, love
I'll be a fool
For you,

I'm sure
You know i don't mind
Oh, you know i don't mind

'cause you,
You mean the world to me
Oh
I know
I know
I've found in you
My endless love

Oooh-woow
Boom, boom
Boom, boom, boom, boom, booom
Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom

Oooh, and love
Oh, love
I'll be that fool
For you,
I'm sure
You know i don't mind
Oh you know-
I don't mind

And, yes
You'll be the only one
'cause no one can deny
This love i have inside
And i'll give it all to you
My love
My love, my love
My endless love

BELIEVE - John Butler Trio


Theres no need to cry
Just hold your head up high
All you got to do is Believe...
In your self
Cos there will be no-one else
Who will ever leave...
You alone anymore
Cos in yourself you be sure
in who you'd be...
Exactly who you are
Cos you could go so far
All you got to do is believe...

Take sometime with yourself
Think about something else
If you cannot be thankful
for what you got
Cos take a look around
It is all so beautiful
So what the hell is there to worry about?
Worry about, worry about...

There's no need to worry
Run around in your scurry
All you got to do is believe...
In the universe
Cos this man it always works
All you got to do is release...
All your expectations
In any situation
All you got to do is see...
That it's all taking place
In it's own grace
All you got to do is believe

Take sometime with yourself
Think about something else
If you cannot be thankful
for what you got
Cos take a look around
It is all so beautiful
So what the hell is there to worry about?
Worry about, worry about...

Cool. :) I've only heard it from Past Masters Vol.2 (the 'rocking' single version), and the 'subtle message' isn't present on there.

To honour my finally obtaining Yoshimi Battles The Pink Robots, and because they're quite good lyrics;

The Flaming Lips-Fight Test
thought I was smart
I thought I was right
I thought it better not to fight
I thought there was a virtue, in always being cool
So it came time to fight
I thought "I'll just step aside"
And that the time would prove you wrong
And that you would be the fool
I don't know where the sunbeams end
And the starlight begins
It's all a mystery
Oh. To fight is to defend
If it's not now then tell me when
Would be the time
That you would stand up and be a man
For to lose I could accept
But to surrender I just wept
And regretted this moment
oh that
I was the fool
I don't know where the sunbeams end
And the starlight begins
It's all a mystery
And I don't know how a man decides
What's right for his own life
It's all a mystery
'Cause I'm a man, not a boy
And there are things you can't avoid
You have to face them
When you're not prepared to face them
If I could I would
But you're with him, now it'd do no good
I should've fought him
But instead I let him
I let him take it

death cab for cutie-title track

Left uninspired by the crust of railroad earth
That touched the lead to the pages of your manuscript.
I took my thumb off the concrete and saved up all my strength
To hammar pillars for a picket fence.
It wasn't quite what it seemed,
A lack of pleasantries.
My able body isn't what it used to be.
I must admit I was charmed by your advances,
Your advantage left me helplessly into you.

Talking how the group had begun to splinter,
And I could taste your lipstick on the filter.

I tried my best to keep my distance from your dress,
But call-response overturns convictions every time.
My memory cannot recall (a wave of alcohol)
We shared a cigarette and shaved the hours off.

Talking how the group had begun to splinter,
And I could taste your lipstick on the filter.

Lushing with the hallway congregation,
My best judgement signed it's resignation.

I rushed this.
We moved too fast,
Trips into the guest room.
I rushed this.
We moved too fast,
Trips into the guest room

The Disclaimer on Offspring's Ixnay On The Hombre album:

ladies and gentlemen
welcome to the disclaimer
that's right the disclaimer

this american apple pie institution
known as parental discretion
will cleanse any sense of innuendo or sarcasm
from the lyrics that might actually make you think
and will also insult your intelligence at the same time

so protect your family
this album contains explicit depictions
of things which are real
these real things are commonly known as life
so if it sounds sarcastic don't take it seriously
if it sounds dangerous
do not try this at home or at all
and if it offends you just don't listen to it

In most cases, I'm not a fan of cliche, sentimental love-song lyrics.. I prefer at least somewhat of a twist on the concept, or the expression;

Talking Heads-This Must Be The Place (Naive Melody)
Home is where I want to be
Pick me up and turn me round
I feel numb - burn with a weak heart
(So I) guess I must be having fun
The less we say about it the better
Make it up as we go along
Feet on the ground
Head in the sky
It's ok I know nothing's wrong . . nothing

Hi yo I got plenty of time
Hi yo you got light in your eyes
And you're standing here beside me
I love the passing of time
Never for money
Always for love
Cover up + say goodnight . . . say goodnight

Home - is where I want to be
But I guess I'm already there
I come home - -she lifted up her wings
Guess that this must be the place
I can't tell one from another
Did I find you, or you find me?
There was a time Before we were born
If someone asks, this where I'll be . . . where I'll be

Hi yo We drift in and out
Hi yo sing into my mouth
Out of all tose kinds of people
You got a face with a view
I'm just an animal looking for a home
Share the same space for a minute or two
And you love me till my heart stops
Love me till I'm dead
Eyes that light up, eyes look through you
Cover up the blank spots
Hit me on the head Ah ooh

More touching lyrics (And I'm not being sarcastic) from Yoshimi Battles The Pink Robots.

The Flaming Lips-All We Have Is Now
As logic stands you couldn't meet a man,
who's from the future,
"we're not gonna make it"
he explained how the end will come,
you and me were never meant to be
part of the future-all we have is now..

All we'll ever have is now...

I noticed that he had a watch
and how that looked familar,
He was me from a dimension
torn free of the future,
"we're not gonna make it"
he explained how the end will come,
you and me were never meant to be
part of the future- all we have is now..

All we have is now...
:(

This made me smile.

The Crash = Lauren Caught My Eye

Lauren caught my eye
Lauren caught my eye
Now nothing is the same
Lauren is her name

Mais je ne sais pas qui tu es derrire ton visage digital
Je suis amoreux de l'image
Et j'ai peur que tu sois seulement un mirage
Je ne sais pas qui tu es, qui tu es

Lauren made me zoom
Lauren had me good
Now nothing is the same
Lauren is to blame

Mais je ne sais pas qui tu es derrire ton visage digital
Je suis amoreux de l'image
Et j'ai peur que tu sois seulement un mirage
Je ne sais pas qui tu es, qui tu es

Mais je ne sais pas qui tu es derrire ton visage digital
Je suis amoreux de l'image
Et j'ai peur que tu sois seulement un mirage
Je ne sais pas qui tu es derrire ton visage

Can't let this thread fade away.

The Shins-Saint Simon
After all these implements and text designed by intellects
So vexed to find evidently there's just so much that hides
And though the saints of us divine in ancient feeding lines
Their sentiment is just as hard to pluck from the vine

I'm trying hard not to pretend
Allow myself no mock defense
Step into the night

Since I dont have the time nor mind to figure out
The nursery rhymes that helped us out and make a sense of our lives
The cruel uneventful state of apathy releases me
I value them but I won't cry if the time was wiped out

I'm trying hard not to give in
Battened down to fair the wind
Read my head, at least pretend
Allow myself no mock defense
Step into the night...

Mercy's eyes are blue
When she places them in front of you
Nothing holds a roman candle to
The solemn warmth you feel inside

There's no measuring of it
As nothing else is love

I'll try hard not to give in
Battened down to fair the wind
Read my head, at least pretend
Allow myslef no mock defense
Step into the night...

Mercy's eyes are blue
When she places them in front of you
Nothing really holds a candle to
The solemn warmth you feel inside of you

I may have posted this before, but it's a great song so who cares?

The Butterfly Effect - The Cell

Ive decided now on every thing for everyone
I have judged the terms who is touched and who is harmed
I remember well the nails that slide across my face
I am left alone and still remains the bitter taste of you

Know why I did everything for
You know why Id do anything at all

I have crucified the pretty one without a name
These injustice scales test my weight and lay the blame
I remember well the milk that sours within my mouth
You have shut me down locked me in and never let me

Out of here Id do anything to disappear
Id do anything at all for
you know why Id do everything

I have nothing here the darkness shrouds a world of pain
Only voices heard tormented sounds and whispered names
I remember well the misery the twist of fate
Still the pendulum will swing for me its a little late for you


Or Stone Temple Pilots - Creep
Forward yesterday
Makes me wanna stay
What they said was real
Makes me wanna steal
Livin' under house
Guess I'm livin', I'm a mouse
All's I gots is time
Got no meaning, just a rhyme

Take time with a wounded hand
'Cause it likes to heal
Take time with a wounded hand
'Cause I like to steal
Take time with a wounded hand
'Cause it likes to heal, I like to steal

I'm half the man I used to me
This I feel as the dawn
It fades to gray
Well, I'm half the man I used to be
This I feel as the dawn
It fades to gray
Well, I'm half the man I used to me
This I feel as the dawn
It fades to gray
Well, I'm half the man I used to be, half the man I used to be

Feelin' uninspired
Think I'll start a fire
Everybody run
Bobby's got a gun
Think you're kinda neat
Then she tells me I'm a creep
Friends don't mean a thing
Guess I'll leave it up to me

Take time with a wounded hand
'Cause it likes to heal
Take time with a wounded hand
Guess I like to steal
Take time with a wounded hand
'Cause it likes to heal, I like to steal

I'm half the man I used to me
This I feel as the dawn
It fades to gray
I'm half the man I used to be
This I feel as the dawn
It fades to gray
I'm half the man I used to be
This I feel as the dawn
It fades to gray
I'm half the man I used to be, half the man I used to be

Take time with a wounded hand
'Cause it likes to heal
Take time with a wounded hand
Guess I like to steal
Take time with a wounded hand
'Cause it likes to heal, I like to steal

Little Birdy - Now the rain is falling...
1, 2, 3, 4...

Wait my open eyes are sorry now
You and me are in this together
I cry I cry cos you're not here at all
I can not be the only one

Cos are you not lost
Are you not the only one sorry
I thought you would grow
Everybody else needs somebody
I tune into love
Then i see it all start to crumble
I needed your heart

Baby I want you painted on my skin
Understand what you've become
But with love
and life and trust
and happiness
You'd be a fool not to know that you've been blessed

I needed your heart
For me
Now the rain is falling
Now the rain is falling
Now the rain is falling
Now the rain is falling

Modest Mouse-Medication
this is the part of me that needs medication
this is the part of me that believes in heaven
....thinks outer space is all dead
....wishes it was with it
....'s trying to be funny
....loves my parents
...thinks that ants are cavemen
....thinks all humans are ants
....learns from sitcoms
.....means nothing
and I do-o-o-on't know
where I could go away and you could wish that I had stayed or just
stayed gone
and I don't know
and I don't know at all
so, out of the context and into what you meant
and you know your reasons
you don't know who you are but you know who you wanna be
I-I-I doooon't know
so you go to the library to get yourself a book and you look and you look
but you didn't find anything to read
and I do-on't know at all
left all my kinder parts rusting and peeling
that guy was complaining as he looked at the ceiling
my nose isn't that big it looks nothing like me
we're all doctors trading sadness for numbness
grass looks much greener but it's green-painted cement
the mayor's machines are there cleaning the pavement
you can't make dirt clean so we'll just lemon-scent it


Modest Mouse-Talkin' Shit About A Pretty Sunset
Oh noose tied myself in, tied myself too tight
Looking kind of anxious in your cross armed stance
Like a bad tempered prom queen at a homecoming dance
And I claim I'm not excited with my life any more
So I blame this town, this job, these friends
The truth is it's myself
And I'm trying to understand myself
and pinpoint where i am
By the time I get things figured out
I've change the whole damn plan
Oh noose tied myself in, tied myself too tight
Talking shit about a pretty sunset
Blanketing opinions that i'll probably reget soon
I've changed my mind so much I cant even trust it
My mind changed me so much I cant even trust myself

Slint-Good Morning, Captain
Let me in, the voice cried softly,
from outside the wooden door.
Scattered remnants of the ship could be seen in the distance,
Blood stained the icy wall of the shore.

I'm the only one left. The storm, took them all,
He managed as he tried to stand.
The tears ran down his face.
Please, it's cold.

When he woke, there was no trace of the ship.
Only the dawn was left behind by the storm.
He felt the creaking of the stairs beneath him.
That rose, from the sea, to the door.

There was a sound at the window then.
The captain started, his breath was still.
Slowly, he turned.

From behind the edge of the windowsill,
There appeared the delicate hand of a child.
His face was flush and timid.
He stared at the captain through frightened eyes.

The captain reached for something to hold on to,
Help me, he whispered, as he rose slowly to his feet.
The boy's face went pale,
He recognized the sound.

Silently, he pulled down the shade against the shadow.
Lost in the doorstep of the empty house.

I'm trying to find my way home.

I'm sorry...
...and I miss you.

I miss you.
I've grown taller now.
I want the police to be notified.
I'll make it up to you,
I swear, I'll make it up to you.

I miss you.

I roll the window down
and then begin to breathe in
The darkest country road
and strong scent of evergreen
from the passenger seat as
you are driving me home.

Then looking upwards
I strain my eyes and try
to tell the difference between
shooting stars and satellites
from the passenger seat as
you are driving me home.

Do they collide
I ask
and you smile

With my feet on the dash
the world
doesn't matter

When you feel embarassed
then I'll be your pride
When you need directions
then I'll be the guide.
For all times
For all times

I want to, I want to be someone else or I'll explode
Floating upon the surface for
The birds, the birds, the birds

You want me, well fucking well come and find me
I'll be waiting with a gun and a pack of sandwiches
And nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing

You want me, well, come on and break the door down
You want me, fucking come on and break the door down
I'm ready, I'm ready, I'm ready, I'm ready, I'm ready...
