jack johnson, "better together"

kneel down on their towels at night
their nightgowns glow with a holy light
and we pray for the sinners,
and their drunken car wrecks,
and i vow that i'll never get high and have sex

[FineyMcFine]

Dar Williams, "Teen for God"

Oh, the rain falls hard on a humdrum town
This town has dragged you down
Oh, no, and everybody's got to live their life
And God knows I've got to live mine

[Modjadji]

The Smiths, "William, It Was Really Nothing" (LOVE it)

Oh let the sun beat down upon my face, stars to fill my dream
I am a traveler of both time and space, to be where I have been
To sit with elders of the gentle race, this world has seldom seen
They talk of days for which they sit and wait and all will be revealed

[tarawillowfan562]

Kashmir by Led Zeppelin

I will not make the same mistakes that you did
I will not let myself
Cause my heart so much misery
I will not break the way you did,
You fell so hard
I've learned the hard way
To never let it get that far

[Foomatic]

Because of You, Kelly Clarkson

The stranger sang a theme,
From someone else’s dream
The leaves began to fall
And no one spoke at all
But I can’t seem to recall
When you came along

[dorksrcool]

"Life in Mono" by Mono

All my lovers were there with me,
all my past and futures.
And we all went to heaven in a little row boat.
There was nothing to fear and nothing to doubt.

So many secrets I couldn't keep

One more promise I couldn't keep"

You're the cutest thing
That I ever did see
I really love your peaches
I wanna shake your tree

[GayNow]

Steve Miller Band....The Joker

If we move in together
Will I still be a slob
Will things get ordinary
Will I piss you off 'cause I don't cook
Throw my clothes on the floor
And I mix the darks and whites
Oh baby, your kisses are pure
And the sex lasts for hours

[FineyMcFine]

Idina Menzel - "Minuet"

She smiled at me on the subway
She was with another man
But I won't lose no sleep on that
'Cause I've got a plan

For you to stick around

Gavin DeGraw's Follow Through

Went to take care of her own body,
And she got shot down in the road
She looked up before she went,
Said, "This isn't really what I meant"

[Jennpurr]

The gentle, sweet singin' of leaves in the wind
The whisper that calls after you in the night
And kisses your ear in the early light...

There's a light at the end of this tunnel you shout cause you're just as far in as you'll ever be out
And these mistakes you've made
You'll just make them again if you'll only try turnin' around

Say 'I do' and kiss me quick
Cause the baby's on its way

Dixie Chicks, "White Trash Wedding" - yee-haw!

Oh, I am the brainchild, I am the mortar
With a plastic trophy and an eating disorder
And a vision as big as a great big wall
And you tell me that I'll move forward, for the good of us all
And for the good of nuclear families, all

[meretricious]

Dar Williams, "The Great Unknown"

I was hanging with some friends
in the parking lot one night near summer's end
and i leaned back against the glass
of a car, to watch all those speeding comets crash
it made me think about us
it made me think about us

my life away

But it’s enough to make a grown man cry
Cos I can feel you slipping through my fingers
I don’t even know the reason why

Pay your surgeon very well
To break the signs of aging
Celebrity skin is this your chin
Or is it war your waging

But will you draw the line?
Turn a blind eye to all the faces that you know?
And she said, "go".


K.

Missy Higgins - Katie.... love that song!

Maybe a hard one;

What if time could unwind and not apply to us
What if I hadn’t fallen first, would this have worked out
So many signs not to be involved with you
So many signs to fall in love

[onlykaren]

"Can't Breathe" by Keith Varon... right?

It’s on the floor
still it feels so warm today

So take the photographs, and still frames in your mind
Hang it on a shelf in good health and good time
Tattoos of memories and dead skin on trial

Green Day- Time of your life

So tired of the straight line, and everywhere you turn
There's vultures and thieves at your back
The storm keeps on twisting, you keep on building the lies
That you make up for all that you lack

How could I break such a heart
Yet still you get my attention

Just like a lost soul
caught up in the Hollywood scene
All the parties and the limousines
Such a good actress hiding all her pain
Trading her memories for fortune and fame
