Small Town Love
I held old letters to my face Remembered all in one fire The words lit tears and lost desires Lost desires They pumped fresh blood to a memory They sent light to a tired soul As i read " Forgive me but don't forget The grace of love" It's not the same old story We weren't bound for glory Just a small town love Our lives were meant for something else I read on just to feel the pain It's been a while since i felt this way The last time was the last fall Was the last fall She's worth more tears than i had to give As the words faded on the page The last she wrote "Forgive me but don't forget The grace of love" It's not the same old story We weren't bound for glory Just a small town love Our lives were meant for something else Sweet truths of love Embraced in our sleep The rivers of time Erased all our dreams It's not the same old story We weren't bound for glory Just a small town love Our lives were meant for something else |

Something I Don't Know
I used to think that I could take on The whole world I didn't need my friends For what I could do on my own And then you came along And showed me I was wrong My world turned upside down Ever since we were alone You're always there To tell me that I'm crazy First to admit that I'm f*cking crazy Tell me something I don't know I get the feeling that you don't think so Tell me something I don't know you know I start believing all the stupid words You say I turn to liquor to make all my problems go away You try to tell me that I'm making a mistake I never listen to you, I just hope you stay away I love it when you say I'm good for nothing you always think That I'm up to something Tell me something I don't know I get the feeling that you don't think so Tell me something I don't know you know |

Don Henley
I Will Not Go Quietly Woke up with a heavy head And I thought about leavin town I could have died if I wanted to- Slipped over the edge and drowned But, oh no baby, I wont give up so easy Too many tire tracks in the sands of time Too many love affairs that stop on a dime I think its time to make some changes round here Yeah, Im gonna tear it up Gonna trash it up Im gonna round it up Gonna shake it up Oh, no, baby, I will not lie down Im brave enough to be crazy Im strong enough to be weak I see all these heroes with feet of clay Whose mighty ships have sprung a leak And I want you to tell me darlin Just what do you believe in now? Well, cmon over here baby You bout to gimme a heart attack I wanna wrap my lovin arms Around the small of your back Yeah, and Im gonna pull you, pull you, pull you Pull you right up close to me Yeah were gonna tear it up We gonna trash it up Gonna round it up Gonna shake it up Oh, no no no, I will not lie down Turn this thing around I will not go quietly I will not lie down I will not go quietly I will not lie down I will not go quietly I will not lie down I will not lie down Well, dont you ever get lonely? Dont you ever get down? Dont you ever get tired Of all the wicked tongues in this town? Of, baby, I just wanna take you away from here I aint no tiger I aint no little lamb Suppose you tell me mama Who do you think I think I am? And ooh baby, dont you give a damn? Yeah, Im gonna tear it up Gonna trash it up Gonna round it up Gonna rip it up I will not lie down Yeah Im gonna tear it up Gonna trash it up Gonna round it up Gonna shake it up Oh baby I will not lie down Turn this thing around I will not go quietly I will not lie down I will no go quietly I will not lie down I will not lie down |

i posted this on my profile as it is one of my favorite songs, so i'll throw it here too
Dropkick Murphys- “The Green Fields of France” Oh how do you do, young Willy McBride Do you mind if I sit here down by your graveside And rest for a while in the warm summer sun I've been walking all day, and I'm nearly done And I see by your gravestone you were only nineteen When you joined the great fallen in 1916 Well I hope you died quick And I hope you died clean Or Willy McBride, was is it slow and obscene Did they beat the drums slowly Did they play the fife lowly Did they sound the death march as they lowered you down Did the band play the last post and chorus Did the pipes play the flowers of the forest And did you leave a wife or a sweetheart behind In some loyal heart is your memory enshrined And though you died back in 1916 To that loyal heart you're forever nineteen Or are you a stranger without even a name Forever enshrined behind some old glass pane In an old photograph torn, tattered, and stained And faded to yellow in a brown leather frame Did they beat the drums slowly Did they play the fife lowly Did they sound the death march as they lowered you down Did the band play the last post and chorus Did the pipes play the flowers of the forest The sun shining down on these green fields of France The warm wind blows gently and the red poppies dance The trenches have vanished long under the plow No gas, no barbed wire, no guns firing now But here in this graveyard that's still no mans land The countless white crosses in mute witness stand To man's blind indifference to his fellow man And a whole generation were butchered and damned Did they beat the drums slowly Did they play the fife lowly Did they sound the death march as they lowered you down Did the band play the last post and chorus Did the pipes play the flowers of the forest And I can't help but wonder oh Willy McBride Do all those who lie here know why they died Did you really believe them when they told you the cause Did you really believe that this war would end wars Well the suffering, the sorrow, the glory, the shame The killing and dying it was all done in vain Oh Willy McBride it all happened again And again, and again, and again, and again Did they beat the drums slowly Did they play the fife lowly Did they sound the death march as they lowered you down Did the band play the last post and chorus Did the pipes play the flowers of the forest |

No Doubt
Peek In, Sneak About Theres times where I want something more Someone more like me Theres times when this dress rehearsal Seems incomplete But, you see the colors in me like no one else And behind your dark glasses youre... Youre something else Chorus: Youre really lovely Underneath it all You want to love me Underneath it all Im really lucky Underneath it all Youre really lovely You know some real bad tricks And you need some discipline But, lately youve been trying real hard And giving me your best And, you give me the most gorgeous sleep That Ive ever had And when its really bad I guess its not that bad (repeat chorus) So many moons that we have seen Stumbling back next to me Ive seen right through and underneath And you make me better Ive seen right through and underneath And you make me better Better... better... Lady saw: You are my real prince charmin Like the heat from the fire You were always burnin And each time youre around My body keeps stalin For your touch Your kisses and your sweet romancin Theres an underside to you That so many adore Aside from your temper Everything else secure Youre good for me, baby Oh that, Im sure Over and over again I want more Gwen: Youve used up all your coupons And all youve got left is me And somehow Im full of forgiveness I guess its meant to be (repeat chorus) Youre really lovely Underneath it all You want to love me Underneath it all Im really lovely Underneath it all And youre really lovely |

Better Than Me
I think you can do much better than me After all the lies I made you believe Guilt kicks in and I start to see The edge of the bed Where your nightgown used to be I told myself I wouldn?t miss you But I remembered What it feels like beside you I really miss your hair in my face And the way your innocence tastes And I think you should know this You deserve much better than me While looking through your old box of notes I found those pictures That you were looking for If there's one memory I don't want to lose That time at the mall You and me in the dressing room I told myself I won't miss you But I remembered What it feels like beside you I really miss your hair in my face And the way your innocence tastes And I think you should know this You deserve much better than me The bed I?m lying in is getting colder Wish I never would?ve said it's over And I can't pretend that I won't think about you when I'm older Cause we never really had our closure This can't be the end I really miss your hair in my face And the way your innocence tastes And I think you should know this You deserve much better than me I really miss your hair in my face And the way your innocence tastes And I think you should know this You deserve much better than me (And I think you should know this) (You deserve much better than me) |

99 Red Balloons
You and I in a little toy shop, buy a bag of balloons with the money we've got. Set them free at the break of dawn 'Til one by one, they were gone. Back at base, bugs in the software Flash the message, Something's out there. Floating in the summer sky 99 red balloons go by. 99 red balloons floating in the summer sky. Panic bells, it's red alert. There's something here from somewhere else. The war machine it springs to life Opens up one eager eye. Focusing it on the sky As 99 red balloons go by. 99 Decision Street, 99 ministers meet to worry, worry, super-scurry. Call out the troops now in a hurry., This is what we've waited for This is it boys, this is war! The president is on the line As 99 red balloons go by. 99 Kriegsminister Streichholz und Benzinkanister Hielten sich fuer schlaue Leute Witterten schon fette Beute Riefen: Krieg und wollten Macht Mann, wer haette das gedacht Dass es einmal soweit kommt Wegen 99 Luftballoons (99 knights of the air ride super high-tech jet fighters everyones a silver hero everyone's a Captain Kirk with orders to identify to clarify and classify scramble in the summer sky 99 red balloons) english version 99 dreams I have had, In every one, a red balloon. It's all over and I'm standin' pretty In the dust that was a city. If I could find a souvenir Just to prove the world was here... And here it is, a red balloon I think of you and let it go.... |

I think the lyrics are right...I typed them as I heard the song...its by THE SUNSTREAK...but i dont know the name of the song!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hopelessly waiting for change Are you hearing a word that I say I've been collecting dust in my mind Save me All you want to do is make believe what I can see I dont really want to care for you, I dont really want to be here after all. Doesnt matter what you say or do I'm through.I'm through..yeah Did I ever really care for you? Do you think you'll miss me after all? Doesnt matter what you say or do I'm through with you... Convicing me you were right, Less and less each time I guess you dont have any respect for your self at all All you wanna do is make believe what I can see I dont really want to care for you I dont really want to be here after all. Doesnt matter what you say or do I'm through.I'm through..yeah.. Did I ever really care for you. Do you think you'll miss me after all Doesnt matter what you say or do I'm through with you All that I wanted and needed was you. But now I'm finally finding my own point of view I dont ever wanna feel the weight of your world crashing down I'll just leave it alone and the rest will be up to you I dont really want to care for you, I dont really want to be here after all. Doesnt matter what you say or do I'm through.I'm through..yeah.. Did I ever really care for you. Do you think you'll miss me after all Doesnt matter what you say or do I'm through with you... I wont come back to you.. I'm through, no matter what you do i wont come back to you. |

Great white coma- THE SUNSTREAK
We live in a lonely life All alone in a lonely fight Wondering if I'll be alright without you All you needed was a second chance A different song for a different dance Now I'm ready for a glance at life without you If we're so young and free, why do you pressure me? Why are you pushing me away? For all I've done for you, for all you put me through, There's nothing left for me to say, but I- Promise you Promise you that Promise I'll never change Promise you Promise you that your heart will break Promise you Promise you that I promise I'll never change We live in a lonely life Die hard searching out the light Wondering if I'll live my life without you These days keep on passing by Fun girl wasting all my time But its cool knowing I'll be fine without you If you're so young and free, why do you follow me? I keep on pushing you away For all the time we shared, I know you never cared There;s nothing left for me to say and I... Promise you Promise you that Promise I'll never change Promise you Promise you that your heart will break Promise you Promise you that I promise I'll never change |

Joey
Joey, baby - don't get crazy Detours. Fences... I get defensive I know you've heard it all before - So I don't say it anymore I just stand by and let you Fight your secret war. And though I used to wonder why - I used to cry till I was dry. Still sometimes I get a strange pain Inside Oh, Joey, if you're hurting so am I. Joey, honey - I've got the money All is forgiven. Listen, listen And if I seem to be confused I didn't mean to be with you. And when you said I scared you, well I guess you scared me too. But we got lucky once before And I don't wanna close the door And if you're somewhere out there Passed out on the floor. Oh Joey, I'm not angry anymore. And if I seem to be confused I didn't mean to be with you. But when you said I scared you, well I guess you scared me too. But if its love you're looking for Then i can give a little more And if you're somewhere drunk and Passed out on the floor. Oh Joey, I'm not angry anymore. Angry anymore.. Angry anymore.. |

Wish You Were Here
Pink Floyd So, so you think you can tell Heaven from Hell Blue skies from Pain Can you tell a green field From a cold steel rail ? A smile from a veil ? Do you think you can tell And did they get you to trade Your heroes for ghosts ? Hot ashes for trees ? Hot air for a cool breeze ? Cold comfort for chains ? And did you exchange A walk on part in the war For a lead role in a cage How I wish, how I wish you were here We're just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl Year after year Running over the same old ground What have we found ? The same old fears Wish you were here |

When I Come Around
I heard you crying loud, all the way across town You've been searching for that someone, and it's me out on the prowl As you sit around feeling sorry for yourself Well Don't get lonely now And Dry your whining eyes I'm just roaming for the moment Sleazin' my back yard so don't get so uptight you been thinking about ditching me No time to search the world around Cause you know where I'll be found When I come around I heard it all before So don't knock down my door I'm a loser and a user so I don't need no accuser to try and slag me down because I know you're right So go do what you like Make sure you do it wise You may find out that your selfdoubt means nothing was ever there You can't go forcing something if it's just not right No time to search the world around Cause you know where I'll be found When I come around No time to search the world around Cause you know where I'll be found When I come around When I come around When I come around When I come around |

Stay Together for the Kids
It's hard to wake up When the shades have been pulled shut This house is haunted It's so pathetic It makes no sense at all I'm ripe with things to say The words rot and fall away If a stupid poem could fix this home I'd read it everyday So here's your holiday hope you enjoy it this time You gave it all away It was mine So when you're dead and gone Will you remember this night, twenty years now lost It's not right Their anger hurts my ears Been running strong for seven years Rather than fix the problems, they never solve them It makes no sense at all I see them everyday We get along, so why can't they? If this is what he wants and it's what she wants Then why's there so much pain? So here's your holiday hope you enjoy it this time You gave it all away It was mine So when you're dead and gone Will you remember this night, twenty years now lost It's not right So here's your holiday hope you enjoy it this time You gave it all away It was mine So when you're dead and gone Will you remember this night, twenty years now lost It's not right It's not right It's not right! It's not right |

Separate Ways - Journey
Here we stand World's apart, hearts broken in two Sleepless nights Losing ground I'm reaching for you Feelin' that it's gone Can change your mind If we can't go on To survive the tide love divides *Someday love will find you Break those chains that bind you One night will remind you How we touched and went our separate ways If he ever hurts you True love won't desert you You know I still love you Though we touched and went our separate ways Troubled times Caught between confusion and pain Distant eyes Promises we made were in vain If you must go, I wish you love You'll never walk alone Take care my love Miss you love (*chorus*) I still love you girl I really love you girl And if he ever hurts you True love won't desert you No....no... |

at least someone else is in an 80's mood besides me... :)
Spending My Time Roxette What's the time? Seems its already morning I see the sky, its so beautiful and blue The TV's on But the only thing showing is a picture of you Oh, I get up and make myself some coffee I try to read a bit but the story's too thin Then I thank the Lord above That you're not there to see me In this shape I'm in Spending my time Watching the days go by Feeling so small I stare at the wall Hoping that you think of me too I'm spending my time I try to call but I don't know what to tell you I leave a kiss on your answering machine Oh, help me please Is there someone who can make me Wake up from this dream? Spending my time Watching the days go by Feeling so small I stare at the wall Hoping that you are missing me too I'm spending my time Watching the sun go down I fall asleep to the sound Of "tears of a clown" A prayer gone blind I'm spending my time My friends keep telling me: Hey, life will go on Time will make sure will get over you This silly game of love you play you win only to lose Spending my time Watching the days go by Feeling so small I stare at the wall Hoping that you are missing me too I'm spending my time Watching the sun go down I fall asleep to the sound Of "tears of a clown" A prayer gone blind |
