Torch - Alanis Morissette

(For anyone having a breakup)

I miss your smell and your style and your pure abiding way
Miss your approach to life and your body in my bed
Miss your take on anything and the music you would play
Miss cracking up and wrestling and our debriefs at end of day

These are things that I miss
These are not times for the weak of heart
These are the days of raw despondence
I never dreamed I would have to lay down my torch for you like this

I miss your neck and your gait and your sharing what you write
Miss you walking through the front door documentaries in your hand
Miss traveling our traveling and your fun and charming friends
Miss our big sur getaways
And to watch you love my dogs

These are things that I miss
These are not times for the weak of heart
These are the days of raw despondence
I never dreamed I would have to lay down my torch for you like this

One step one prayer I soldier on, simulating moving on

I miss your warmth and the thought of us bringing up our kids
And the part of you that walks with your stick-tied handkerchief

These are things that I miss
These are not times for the weak of heart
These are the days of raw despondence
I never dreamed I would have to lay down my torch for you like this

These are things that I miss
These are not times for the weak of heart
These are the days of raw despondence
I never dreamed I would have to lay down my torch for you like this

"Breathe"

I can feel the magic floating in the air
Being with you gets me that way
I watch the sunlight dance across your face and I've
Never been this swept away

All my thoughts just seem to settle on the breeze
When I'm lying wrapped up in your arms
The whole world just fades away
The only thing I hear
Is the beating of your heart

'Cause I can feel you breathe
It's washing over me
Suddenly I'm melting into you
There's nothing left to prove
Baby all we need is just to be
Caught up in the touch
The slow and steady rush
Baby, isn't that the way that love's supposed to be
I can feel you breathe
Just breathe

In a way I know my heart is waking up
As all the walls come tumbling down
I'm closer than I've ever felt before
And I know
And you know
There's no need for words right now

'Cause I can feel you breathe
It's washing over me
Suddenly I'm melting into you
There's nothing left to prove
Baby all we need is just to be
Caught up in the touch
The slow and steady rush
Baby, isn't that the way that love's supposed to be
I can feel you breathe
Just breathe

Caught up in the touch
The slow and steady rush
Baby, isn't that the way that love's supposed to be
I can feel you breathe
Just breathe

I can feel the magic floating in the air
Being with you gets me that way

Eels - Your Lucky Day In Hell

Mama gripped onto the milkman's hand
and then she finally gave birth
years go by still i don't know
who shall inherit this earth
and no one will know my name until it's on a stone

this could be your lucky day in hell
never know who it might be at your doorbell
this could be your lucky day in hell

waking up with an ugly face
winston churchhill in drag
looking for a new maternal embrace
another tired old gag
am i just a walking bag of chewed up dust and bones

this could be your lucky day in hell
never know who it might be at your doorbell
this could be your lucky day in hell

father theresa you can't make me into you
i never wanna be like you
why can't you see it's me
you know it's time to let me go

this could be your lucky day in hell
never know who it might be at your doorbell
this could be your lucky day in hell

ahhhh it's Monday..

I Want to Hold your Hand

Oh yeah, I'll tell you something,
I think you'll understand.
When I'll say that something
I want to hold your hand,
I want to hold your hand,
I want to hold your hand.

Oh please, say to me
You'll let me be your man
And please, say to me
You'll let me hold your hand.
Now let me hold your hand,
I want to hold your hand.

And when I touch you I feel happy inside.
It's such a feeling that my love
I can't hide, I can't hide, I can't hide.

Yeah, you've got that something,
I think you'll understand.
When I'll say that something
I want to hold your hand,
I want to hold your hand,
I want to hold your hand.

And when I touch you I feel happy inside.
It's such a feeling that my love
I can't hide, I can't hide, I can't hide.

Yeh, you've got that something,
I think you'll understand.
When I'll feel that something
I want to hold your hand,
I want to hold your hand,
I want to hold your hand.

On the Beatles theme..

There are places I remember
All my life, though some have changed
Some forever not for better
Some have gone and some remain
All these places had their moments
With lovers and friends
I still can recall
Some are dead and some are living
In my life I've loved them all

But of all these friends and lovers
there is no one compares with you
And these memories lose their meaning
When I think of love as something new
Though I know I'll never lose affection
For people and things that went before
I know I'll often stop and think about them
In my life I love you more

Though I know I'll never lose affection
For people and things that went before
I know I'll often stop and think about them
In my life I love you more
In my life I love you more

welcome back Kat...

tired

You've been talking for an hour, and I swear to God that I can't hear a word you say
So would you come to me, come to me
I get caught up and the waves of conversation they wash over me
And they cover me, they cover me

Should I just pack my things and leave
Would I be a bigger man if I built a wall around your heart and dared you to come in
I could lie to you and say I didn't mean it
But hurts a funny thing and it makes you stronger

All is nothing in moderation
It's a dirty feeling and it makes you stronger
Well I believe I'm just plain tired

There's a funny way your lip shakes when I know that you've been lying, and it touches me
It comforts me, it comforts me
I guess I should be satisfied, did you say you love me half the time
Well let's settle there, we can build from there, build from there

Would you be happier if I was only half the man I am
You could shadow me and dare me to come in
I could lie to you and say I didn't mean it
But it really doesn't matter when you stop to think about it

All is nothing in moderation
It's a dirty feeling and it makes you stronger
Well I believe I'm just plain tired
The end is coming she don't even feel it
It's a strange sensation, I'm almost happy
Well I believe I'm just plain tired, I'm tired

Should I just pack my things and leave
Would I be a bigger man if I
Built a wall around your heart
And dared you to come in
I can lie to you
Say I didn't mean it
But hurts a funny thing, hurts a funny thing

All is nothing in moderation
It's a dirty feeling and it makes you stronger
Well I believe I'm just plain tired
The end is coming she don't even feel it
It's a strange sensation, I'm almost happy
Well I believe I'm just plain tired

All is nothing in moderation
It's a dirty feeling and it makes you stronger
Well I believe I'm just plain tired
The end is coming she don't even feel it
It's a strange sensation, I'm almost happy
Well I believe I'm just plain tired

Future Vs. History - Garfield Mayor

Open up the curtains
The dawn light flooding in
The longest ever night fades
At last my life begins
But as my face projects
I fear conceit collects
And baby there’s a blackness to this magic
That’s circling me

And it won’t stop, this is changing me
Set my future ’gainst our history
I’ve given all I’ve got, and all I’ve lost
Now success may prove our dearest cost
My love don’t let this be

Open up the window
And there’s a fresh breeze blowing in
So I step to the doorway where I
Consider all that is this world I now live
But see as my eyesight corrects
I fear my heart defects
And baby there’s a darkness to this day
I daren’t believe

And it won’t stop, this is changing me
Set my future ’gainst our history
I’ve given all I’ve got, and all I’ve lost
Now success may prove our dearest cost
I hear a cold voice speak inside of me
On the subject of what I’m to be

And if it’s all we’ve got then surely all is lost
And my grail will prove our dearest cost
My love don’t let that be

Where is the home you promised me?
Where is the peace and clarity?
Won’t you swear it’s yet to come?

My love I fear it won’t stop how this is changing me
Set my future ’gainst our history
And if it’s all we’ve got then surely all is lost
And my grail becomes our dearest cost
My love don’t let that be

´Mr Curiosity - Jason Mraz



Hey Mr. Curiosity
Is it true what they've been saying about you
Are you killing me?
You took care of the cat already
And for those who think it's heavy
Is it the truth
Or is it only gossip
Call it mystery or anything
Just as long as you'd call me
I sent the message on did you get it when I left it
See this catastrophic event
It wasn't meant to mean no harm
But to think there's nothing wrong is a problem

I'm looking for love this time
Sounding hopeful but it's making me cry
Love is a mystery
Mr. Curious...

Come back to me
Mr. waiting ever patient can't you see
That I'm the same the way you left me
In a hurry to spell check me
And I'm underlined already in envy green
And pencil red
And I've forgotten what you've said
Will you stop working for the dead and return
Mr. curious well I need some inspiration
It's my birthday and I cannot find no cause for celebration
The scenario is grave but I'll be braver when you save me
From this situation laden with hearsay

I'm looking for love this time
Sounding hopeful but it's making me cry
And love is a mystery
Mr. Curiosity
Be Mr. please
Do come and find me, oh
Find, find me, find me

I'm looking for love this time
Sounding hopeful but it's making me cry
Trying not to ask why
Cause love is a mystery
Mr. curiosity
Be Mr. please
Do come and find me

Love is blinding when the timing's never right
Oh who am I to beg for difference
Finding love in just an instant
Well I dont mind, at least I've tried
And I tried, I tried...

The All-American Rejects


You speak to me
I know this will be temporary
You ask to leave,
but I can tell you that I've had enough

I can't take it
This welcome is gone and
I've waited long enough to make it
and if you're so strong
you might as well just do it alone
And I'll watch you go

Step up to me
I know that you've got something buried
I'll set you free
You set conditions, but I've had enough

I can't take it
This welcome is gone and
I've waited long enough to make it
and if you're so strong
you might as well just do it alone
And I'll watch you go

Come back home, won't you come back home?
You step in line, you got a lot to prove
It comes and goes
Yeah, it comes and goes
A step in time, yeah it's a lot to move
I know this will be temporary
I know this will be temporary
I know this will be, but I've had enough

I can't take it
This welcome is gone and
I've waited long enough to make it
and if you're so strong
you might as well just do it alone
And I'll watch you go

I can't take it
This welcome is gone and
I've waited long enough to make it
and if you're so strong
you might as well just do it alone
And I'll watch you go

argue

...i'm sorry baby, but we shouldn't argue...

She don't, but she will
He says anything to keep her by him
She takes, what she gets, and she never did flinch

So over, and over, anyone
With any mind would think that's all she gets

If you want you can get to know me well
We get along so we shouldn't argue
And I don't know, said I don't know
All these feelings, cloud up my reasoning
Cloud up my reasoning

I know, but I still
Believe in ignorance as my best defense
So go on, wreck me
Funny how I carry on, and not be taken over
Will not roll over on anyone,
'Cuz anyone would stand up on my side

You know it's funny how sometimes
It don't work out like you want to
No you never get nothing at all
Then she tells you that it's over, boy don't you hate it when it's over
I guess something just got lost, and it deeply saddens me
So over, and over anyone, who's anyone

powerful line .....

"...something just got lost, and it deeply saddens me"

Strawberry Swing - Coldplay

They were sitting, they were sitting in the strawberry swing
And every moment was so precious

They were sitting, they were talking in the strawberry swing
And everybody was for fighting
Wouldn't wanna waste a thing

Cold, cold water bring me 'round
Now my feet won't touch the ground
Cold, cold water what you say?
It's such, it's such a perfect day
It's such a perfect day

I remember we were walking up to strawberry swing
I can't wait 'til the morning
Wouldn't wanna change a thing
People moving all the time
Inside a perfect straight line
Don't you wanna curve away
It's such it's such a perfect day
It's such a perfect day

Ahhhh....

Now the sky could be blue I don't mind
Without you its a waste of time
...could be blue I don't mind, without you it's a waste of time
The sky could be blue, could be gray without you I just slide away
The sky could be blue, I don't mind, without you it's a waste of time

looks like I'm in the Summer mood today...

Spinning Away - Sugar Ray

Up on a hill, as the day dissolves
With my pencil turning moments into line
One by one, all the stars appear
As the great winds of the planet spiral in

Spinning away, like the night sky
In the million insect storm, the constellations form
On a hill, under a raven sky
I have no idea exactly where I've been

Some kind of change, some kind of spinning away
With every single line moving further out in time

Spinning away, like the night sky
...some kind of spinning away
I have no idea exactly where I've been
And here, or there
And here, or there
...some kind of spinning away

And here, or there
...some kind of spinning away
And here, or there
And here, or there
...some kind of spinning away
And here, or there

And here, or there
And here, or there

Raining like crazy..I want summer.

Who'll Stop The Rain-CCR

Long as I remember
The rain been comin' down.
Clouds of myst'ry pourin'
Confusion on the ground.
Good men through the ages,
Tried to find the sun;
And I wonder, still I wonder,
Who'll stop the rain.

I went down Virginia,
Seekin' shelter from the storm.
Caught up in the fable,
I watched the tower grow.
Five year plans and new deals,
Wrapped in golden chains.
And I wonder, still I wonder
Who'll stop the rain.

Heard the singers playin',
How we cheered for more.
The crowd had rushed together,
Tryin' to keep warm.
Still the rain kept pourin',
Fallin' on my ears.
And I wonder, still I wonder
Who'll stop the rain.
