**Fav Lyrics**

[fluffyspoon]

I often find myself mooching through this forum for items of interest and am always coming across all these interesting tag lines like Krystian's, ('I knew her, like Adam knew Eve, every tear you cry is a tear that I will bleed.' - Angie Aparo). This has led me to realise that many of these beautiful lines you people sport are often fragments of songs and thus; i feel sufficiently prompted to ask you cold eskimo ppl as to your favourite song lyrics..

Ready, set... 'Go'!

Hiya, there are loads of threads like this one but at the moment I'll say:


"Please take it easy and stop raising your voice, its hardly what I'd be doing if you gave me the choice" Snow Patrol

[Krystian]

well a few of myfavorite non-Damien song lyrics include:


Angie Aparo:
~My you look beautiful, but your love is a funeral- "Beautiful"
~I am a song.I been here all along.I'll be here when the hatred's gone
Hey can you recognize me. I am the light of the Sun-"Memphis City Rain"
~She smiles for me.It don't mean a thing.It don't take away the way it was before.I'm foolish and grown.I should've known.Her's was a world made for just one throne.I'm a waste of a momma's boy.It's a shame they say.There's so much you know he'll never enjoy.All the love you come to destroy.How many days can you waste it boy.- "Hush"
~The Gravity.Of whether you were meant for me.Came crashing down with sovereignty.In someone else's tragedy,~The Gravity.Of whether you were meant for me.Came crashing like a symphony.In someone else's used to be..And we carried our cross like a clover. - "Gravity"


Pedro the Lion:
~Oh, look you earned your wings...Are you an angel, now ..Or a vulture- "Magazine"
~ so i told her i loved her and she told me she loved me,and i mostly believed her and she mostly believed me.- "Options"

Paul Christianson:


~don’t promise me a tidal wave when i can’t swim.i’m sitting in agony just knowing that i can’t win .you guarantee everything when all i can do is wait
what do you expect of me .i’m not a liar nor a saint . "How I wonder"

[Krystian]

Mic Christopher

Skylarking

'Cause my songs don't know that I exist
And though I give them life it is
A friendship that will never grow
My songs are friends I'll never know

Paddy Casey

In a self serving society
Where computers are a deity
And everything's about the me

[sandina]

Patty Griffin - Bucknaked Heart (unreleased):


You're actin' like it's nothing, baby
But I don't think I can play that part
When you have looked straight in the eyes
Of my buck naked heart


Patty Griffin - Every Little Bit (Living With Ghosts)


I can chew like a cannibal
I can yell like a cat
I even had you believing that I
really really like it like that
But there was never a moment
Not a moment
Now you know
You ever got within a hundred
million miles of my soul

[*Kat]

Went to a Gavin Moore gig last week and bought his album. Have had this stuck in my head since:


You are to me as sun is to rain, you're the paint in my frame, your colours filter through me.


You are to me like water, snow, let's go make rivers flow.


Touch me, I'll melt, Don't you know?

[Beevers_uk]

"And I hate when you say
That I never fight for you"

-Insane, Damien Rice

"You know that I love you
And what love endures
All my thoughts are of you
I am so completely yours"

-Don't Explain, Billie Holiday

"I've been walking you
Into those lamposts again
I'd rather do that than
Let go of your hand"

-Lamposts, Bell X1

"And what do you say
When her friend comes along
And you know shes been rescued"

-Slowset, Bell X1

"So what happens when the heart just stops
Stops caring for anyone
The hollow in your chest dries up
And you stop believing"

-What happens when the heart just stops, The Frames (The whole song is amazing, but especialy this first verse)

"How can I stay here
It wouldn't be what she wants
And I'm trying to break it easy
But she's pleading with me"

-Angel At My Table, The Frames

"It's not the same when I look in her eyes.
The magic's not there.
And when I look, I realize
what we could have shared.
I'm always gonna love you,
if loving means forever.
I'm always gonna want you.
I don't think I could ever
just forget the love we had.
It's not the same when she's here in my arms,
or the smile on her face.
And even though with all of her charms,
she can't take your place."

-Always Gonna Love You, Gary Moore

"The whole song "Forget Her"

-Forget Her, Jeff Buckley

[*Kat]

Dear lord, what an old thread!! I'd forgotten that Gavin Moore phase!!

Hmmm, lyrics..... Ali Whitton's "A little hope":
"What is love except a way to lose friend
What is life except a means to an end
What are you except a reason for me to show a little hope."

David Ford's "Song for the road":
"I don't lightly use words like forever,
But I will love you 'til the end of today.
And in the morning when I remember all the things that you are,
I know I'll fall for you over again."

Badly Drawn Boy's "Have you fed the fish?":
"Sometimes you've got to rewind to go forward
There's some good times around the corner"

And finally, Bright Eyes' "Lua":
"What is simple in the moonlight by the morning never is"
(That one being VERY true for me right now!!)

[joe_folds_5]

when youre young you get sad - ryan adams 'when youre young'

her mix-tape's a masterpiece - ben folds five 'kate'

the moons layin low in the sky,
forcin everythin metal to shine,
and the sidewalk holds diamonds,
like a jewellery store case - bright eyes 'landlocked blues'

'for a minute there i lost myself' - radiohead 'karma POlice'

the first idea i ever had, was gettin the wrong idea- james ellis, ysd

'you when youre sleeping,
you look so completed,
i end up defeated,
while remaining seated'

'summer 97,
i thought you were heaven,
you practiced your courtsey,
your t-shirt was dirty' - james ellis, torn out pages

I ve got a small book where i write my fav lyriks in:

Since u've been gone i've been lost without a trace. I dream at night, I can only see your face. I look around but it's you i cant replace. I feel so cold and I long for your embrace. I keep crying baby, baby please
(Sting & Police)

I dont want the world to see me cause i dont think that they'd understand
When everythings made to be broken, I just want you to know who i am
(Goo Goo Dolls)

It feels like home to me
It feels like I'm all the way back where i come from
(Chantal Kreviazuk)

I've been away too long and everyday i missed you more.
You look like you did before,
only prettier.
Everyday i love you more. Everyday i love you more and more.
(Racoon- love you more)

Oh no i cant let you go, my littel girl.
Because you're holding up my world.
So i need you,
Your imitation of my walk and the perfect way you talk
Its just a couple of the million things that I love about you
(3 Doors Down- so i need you)

Everything I am and everything in me,
wants to be the one you wanted me to be.
(3 doors down- when im gone)

......

[Irishman]

Don McLean

And when no hope was left in sight
on that starry starry night,
You took your life as lovers often do,
But I could've told you Vincent
This world was never ment for one as beautiful as you.

Elton John

My gift is my song and,
This one's for you.

[white zebra]

and the time is just memory mixed with desire
that's not the road
it's only the map i say
Tom Waits

[Gatsby]

pete murray - "dont be scared of what you cannot see, your only fear is possibility" - strikes a chord right now

and to continue on in the tom waits greatness

"Well the room is crowded, there's people everywhere
And I wonder, should I offer you a chair?
Well if you sit down with this old clown,
take that frown and break it,
Before the evening's gone away,
I think that we could make it,
And I hope that I don't fall in love with you."

[NaturalMystic]

Its tough to narrow it down... but...

Bright Eyes' Landloked Blues: "There's kids playing guns in the street
One's pointing his tree branch at meSo I put my hands up, said Enough is Enough If you walk away, I'll walk away Then he shot me dead"
From the same song: "A good woman will pick you apart A box full of suggestions for a possible heartAnd you may be offended, and you may be afraid But don't walk away, don't walk away

We made love on the living room floor With the noise in the background from a televised war And in that deafening pleasure I thought I heard someone say
If we walk away, they'll walk away

And my favorit song right now Rilo Kiley' With Arms Outstretched:
"Its 16 miles, to the promise land
and I promise you, I'm doing the best I can
now don't fool yourself
in thinking you're more than a man
cause you'll probably end up dead

i visit these
mountains with frequency
and i stand here with my arms out
now somedays they'll last longer than others
but this day by the lake went too fast

and if you want me
you better speak up i won't wait
so you better, move fast"
