"Wonderful" by The Beach Boys



"If you didn't care what happened to me,

And I didn't care for you,

We would zig zag our way through the boredom and pain,

Occasionally glancing up through the rain,

Wondering which of the buggers to blame"

More than any other time in history, mankind faces a crossroads. One path leads to despair and utter hopelessness. The other, to total extinction. Let us pray we have the wisdom to choose correctly. Woody Allen (1935 - )

"Wind in time

rapes the flower trembling on the vine

nothing yields to shelter it

from above

they say temptation will destroy our love"

[Arat Sevol Wolliw]

That's Sarah Mclachlan's song Fear!



I say I hear a doubt, with the voice of true believing

And the promises to stay, and the footsteps that are leaving

And she says "Oh," I say, "What?" she says, "Exactly,"

I say, "What, you think I'm angry

Does that mean you think I'm angry?"

"I should get a purse to dump on the ground in order to pick up women"

[mollyig]

That's Ms Dar Williams' song "What do you hear in these sounds"



we had words on our flight, we must walk but I've got the light

you take me home, my friend, oh I don't like this, I don't like this fight.

I say love will come to you. Hoping just because I spoke the words that they're true.

As if I offered up a crystal ball to look through. Where there's now one there will be two.
Indigo Girls

Seeing as how it's been practically a whole month, mollyig, maybe you ought to try a different song and let us off the hook for this one.

ok, here's one of my favorite's...



I know the pieces fit cuz I watched them tumble down

No fault, none to blame it doesn't mean I don't desire to

Point the finger, blame the other, watch the temple topple over.

To bring the pieces back together, rediscover communication.

Nine-thirty on a Tuesday night

Just to check out the late-night record shop

Call it impulsive, call it compulsive, call it insane

When I'm surrounded I just can't stop"

"Brian Wilson" by Barenaked Ladies.



If I had a pair of eyes in the back of my head for each time

You forgot to take out all the things you forgot to talk about

When you took a bite out of my spine

I would have a lot of eyes on the other side, wouldn’t I?

Wouldn’t that just be fine?

Worn out places – worn out faces

Bright and early for their daily races

Going nowhere – going nowhere

Mad World by Gary Jules



No one understood what I felt for Mary

No one cared until the night she went out walking alone

And never came home ...

Man with a badge came knocking next morning

Here was I surrounded by a thousand fingers suddenly

Pointed right at me ...

"Hazard" by Richard Marx



lol, Brian, is he Canadian or something? Heh, he should be, anyway.





Well, he couldn't ride or wrangle, and he never cared to make a dime.

But give him his guitar, and he'd be happy all the time.

And all the girls from nine to ninety,

Were snapping fingers, tapping toes, and begging him: "Don't stop."

Tennessee Flat-top Box by Rosanne Cash



You know our love was meant to be

The kind of love that lasts forever

And I need you here with me

From tonight until the end of time

You should know, everywhere I go

You're always on my mind, in my heart, in my soul

This should be easy for former mulletheads:

The way you move, you know it's easy to see

The neon light's on me tonight

I've got a way, we're gonna prove it tonight

Am I admitting something here....



Rat, Round and Round.



Ok, this is an older one and it has been going through my head all damn night. I'll even make it an easy one.



I been run down, I been lied to,

I don't know why I let that mean woman make me a fool.

She took all my money, wrecked my new car.

Now she's with one of my goodtime buddies,

They're drinkin' in some crosstown bar.

All I can do is wish you well"

Holley,

What started this whole thing at work was because someone walked in singing Barry Manilow's "Coppacabanna". So don't think that you are the lamest human. By the end of that fateful day, we were all singing it.



Now we are also doing lines from movies and I'm thinking of starting a thread for that.



Have a great day everyone!!!

Love to All

I'll just put it in a bubble and blow it away!!!.

Ah...



B.B. King, the Thrill is Gone.



Here is another one that has been going throug my head all day.



Who will go down to those shady groves

And summon the shadows there

And tie a ribbon on those sheltering arms

In the springtime of the year

Such a haunting voice!

oneyedchicklet: Sadly, I can beat that - I went to a Barry Manilow concert. And he played the accordion! Yeah, Copacabana is a very addictive song...



"She's a poor man's rich girl

and she'll do it for a song.

She's a rich man stealer

but her favour's good and strong:

She's the Robin Hood of Highgate --

"Deireadh an Tuath" by Enya. (trans: "End of the Tribe")



I have that CD sitting next to me right now.

Here's another tidbit. Enya and I have the same last name. She uses the Gaelic spelling (imagine that) and we use the Americanized.



I'll let someone else take your first one since I really don't know off of the top of my head.

"I love kittens!" - My son

[sprhrgrl]

Since WebWarlock left the thread open-ended, I'll tie them up. . . (aha, puns are great)

Tie me to the track with my ear to the rail

But wait for the very last moment to save me

Or we could fight on top like a Western

Jump from car to car, not noticing the tunnel is approaching

And when we're in the tunnel you become another person

And we lay down and let the darkness enfold us. . .

Pictures of you

They're still on my mind

You had the smile

I don't have an answer, but can someone possibly tell me an easy way to find song lyrics on the web, but typing in certain lines?



I only ask this here, cause I know some of you probably know how.



Thanks in advance,
