[Boadecia]

Linked words: Bring me water

vTonight I feel so weak
But all in love is fair
I turn the other cheek
And I feel the slap and the sting of the foul night air
And I know you’re only human
And I haven’t got talking room
But tonight while I’m making excuses
Some other woman is making love to you

Somebody bring me some water
Can’t you see I’m burning alive
Can’t you see my baby’s got another lover
I don’t know how I’m gonna survive
Somebody bring me some water

Bring me some water- Melissa Etheridge

[watty]

linked word = burning

Home in the valley
Home in the city
Home isn't pretty
Ain't no home for me

Home in the darkness
Home on the highway
Home isn't my way
Home I'll never be

Burn out the day
Burn out the night
I can't see no reason to put up a fight
I'm living for giving the devil his due
And I'm burning, I'm burning, I'm burning for you
I'm burning, I'm burning, I'm burning for you


"Burning for you" - Blue Oyster Cult
[br]

[dorksrcool]

Linked word=pretty

You're so pretty the way you are.
And you had no reason,
To be so insolent to me.
You're so pretty the way you are.
La, la, you got to say it if you want to,
But you won't change me.
La, la, you got to say it if you want to,
But you won't change me.

The Cranberries- Pretty

[beanie]

linked word = reason

Cool blue reason comes into your life
There's one more dead in Kansas and it's probably your wife
Cool blue reason I'm just talking to myself
Cool blue reason I'm just rearranging hell
I'm just talking to myself

Cake - Cool Blue Reason

[JustSkipIt]

linked word = blue

Blue Moon
You saw me standing alone
Without a dream in my heart
Without a love of my own
Blue Moon
You know just what I was there for
You heard me saying a prayer for
Someone I really could care for

Blue Moon - I think by Frank Sinatra

[Tues]

linked words = could, just, someone, love, alone, there

I wrote a letter on a nothing day
I asked somebody “Could you send my letter away?”
“You are too young to put all of your hopes in just one envelope”

I said goodbye to someone that I love
It’s not just me, I tell you it’s the both of us
And it was hard
Like coming off the pills that you take to stay happy

Someone above has seen me do alright
Someone above is looking with a tender eye
Upon your face, you may think you’re alone but you may think again

If I could do just one near perfect thing I’d be happy
They’d write it on my grave, or when they scattered my ashes
On second thoughts I’d rather hang around and be there with my best friend
If she wants me

“If She Wants Me” – Belle & Sebastian

[Tues]

linked = feel, more, never, there

Hopelessness
is the darkness in your heart
It's the sound of one hand clapping
While it's pulling you apart
Woa and I know
Yes and I know
What you feel...

And
I got a hunger that's
Hard to fill
Driving me on overkill
Tellin' me that everything's gone wrong
Got me a need
That I can't break
More than I can hardly take
Somehow I still keep on going strong

When I call your name
I'm gonna scream out loud
I'll say...
"here I am standing in the crowd"
You'll say "come to me"
With your open mind
you never know
What you still might find"
But you keep me here
Like a cancelled flight
An empty train
Running through the night
An orphan child
A broken shoe
and I'm still down here
Lookin’ out for you
Are you there for me?
'Cause I'm here for you

"Loneliness" - Annie Lennox

[Tues]

Mi Corazon - lyrical chess? We should stop being so hoggy though huh?

link words - break & night

I'll press your hand against my face,
weaken my resistance.
I'll pull the sheets over our heads,
let the broken sky break above our heads.

And I want to be addicted,
I want to be secure,
I want to wake up after the night before,
but do you get me?

Do you ever get me?

Shower me with affection and I'll return in kind.
I have no hidden motive, I am blind.
I'm a stone inside a box,
I'm a spring inside a clock,
you can wear me on your wrist
and I'll tell you things ten thousand times...

“Get Me” - Everything But the Girl

[Tues]

Mi Dulce - lyrical chess it is then.

linked words – through, come, day, line, girl

I walk and I wade
Through full lands and lonely
I stumble, I stumble
With you I wait
To be born again
With love comes the day
Just hold on to me

(Come on my love)
And I'm right on time
And the birds keep singing
And you're right on line
And the bells keep ringing

One day they'll be a place for us

And the battle is won
And the planes keep winging
And I'm right on time
And the girl keeps singing

One day they'll be a place for us

Now is the time
To follow through
To read the signs
Now the message sent
Let's bring it to it's final end

And I'm right on time
And the birds keep singing
And you're right on line
And the bells keep ringing
One day they'll be a place for us
And the battle is won
And the planes keep winging
And I'm right on time
And the girl keeps singing
One day they'll be a place for us

One day
I Know
They'll be
A place
Called
Home

"A Place Called Home Lyrics" – PJ Harvey

[Foomatic]

Alright Irene and TuesBlu, can't be having all the fun on this thread!

linked words = bells, ringing, birds, singing, winging


There were bells on a hill
But I never heard them ringing
No I never heard them at all
'Til there was you

There were birds in the sky
But I never saw them winging
No I never saw them at all
'Til there was you

Then there was music and wonderful roses
They tell me in sweet fragrant meadows of dawn and you
There was love all around
But I never heard it singing
No I never heard it at all
'Til there was you

'Til There Was You, The Beatles

[Tues]

Yes checked, but not out of the game. Un beso para acabar la noche.

linked words - heart & love

Open hearts
Empty spaces
Dusty roads
To distant places
But all the time
When I'm alone
I think of you
And how you've grown...


But if Jesus comes to take your hand
I won't let go, I won't let go...


You're the kind of person
That I've always wanted to be with
We'll you're really cool
And you always say the right things to me
But now I'll tell you something
From my heart beats for you deep inside
But never be a burden
And my love for you will never die,
never die, never die, never die, never die

"Run Wild" - New Order

[kisstheviolets]

Linked word: you

But she loves him
And he loves somebody else
You just can't win
And so it goes
Till the day you die
This thing they call love
It's gonna make you cry
I've had the blues
The reds and the pinks
One thing for sure

(Love stinks)
Love stinks yeah yeah
(Love stinks)

(Love stinks)
Love stinks yeah yeah
(Love stinks)

Two by two and side by side
Love's gonna find you yes it is
You just can't hide
You'll hear it call
Your heart will fall
Then love will fly
It's gonna soar
I don't care for any casanova thing
All I can say is
Love stinks

(Love stinks)
Love stinks yeah yeah
(Love stinks)

[Tues]

palate cleasner for kisstheviolets!

linked words – gonna & yeah

We were friends but now you're the enemy
Don't need this when there's a remedy
It's the end
Play your trick on someone new

I'm gonna run away
I'm never comin' back to you
Yeah yeah, I'm gonna run away
I'm never comin' back to you

Ain't life strange, how people change
You were all I wanted once
Now you're just a pain, pain

“(I'm Gonna) Run Away” - Joan Jett and The Blackhearts

[Tues]

Add this to the list!

linked words – heart, take, pain

Love hurts, love scars, love wounds and mars
Any heart not tough or strong enough
To take a lot of pain, take a lot of pain
Love is like a cloud holds a lot of rain
Love hurts, mmm, mmm, love hurts

I'm young I know but even so
I know a thing or two I learned from you
I really learned a lot, really learned a lot
Love is like a stove burns you when it's hot
Love hurts, mmm, mmm, love hurts

Some fools think of happiness
Blissfulness, togetherness
Some fools fool themselves I guess
But they're not fooling me
I know it isn't true, know it isn't true
Love is just a lie made to make you blue
Love hurts, mmm, mmm, love hurts

“Love Hurts” – Gram Parsons & Emmylou Harris

Tengo un corazón fuerte.

[Foomatic]

Sorry to interrupt the TuesBlu and Irene show, but . . .

linked word = aggravation

Tell me what you think about our situation
Complication, aggravation
Is getting to you

If chicken little tells you that the sky is fallin’
Even if it wasn’t would you still come crawling
Back again - I bet you would my friend
Again & again & again & again

Livin' On The Edge, Aerosmith

And now back to your regularly scheduled programming . . .

[watty]

lol I didn't want to step into the mutual admiration society gathering either

linked words = back again

China gets broken
And it will never be the same
Boats on the ocean
Find their way back again
I am weaving
Like a drunkard
Like a balloon up in the air
I am needing a puncture and someone
To point me somewhere
I'm gonna keep my head on straight
I just hope it's not too late
Open up the gate I go straight on, steady on


"Steady on" -- Shawn Colvin
[br]

[beanie]

Linked word = ocean

The ocean breathes salty, won't you carry it in?
In your head, in your mouth, in your soul.
And maybe we'll get lucky and we'll both grow old.
Well I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I hope so.

Well that is that and this is this.
You tell me what you want and I'll tell you what you get.
You get away from me. You get away from me.
Collected my belongings and I left the jail.
Well thanks for the time, I needed to think a spell.
I had to think awhile. I had to think awhile.

Modest Mouse - Ocean Breathes Salty

[Tues]

I couldn’t resist, so I’ll take all the blame…

linked words – touch & head

And if the people stare
Then the people stare
Oh, I really don’t know and I really don’t care

Kiss my shades ... oh ...

So, hand in glove I stake my claim
I’ll fight to the last breath

If they dare touch a hair on your head
I’ll fight to the last breath

For the good life is out there somewhere
So stay on my arm, you little charmer

But I know my luck too well
Yes, I know my luck too well
And I’ll probably never see you again
I’ll probably never see you again

“Hand in Glove” – The Smiths

[angel of salvation]

Linked Words: My & Kiss

Someone full of fun
Do me 'till I'm well done
Little Bo Peep
Cumin' from my stun gun
Beware take care
Most motherfuckers
Have a cold ass stare
Aw baby please be there
Suck my kiss cut me my share

Hit me you can't hurt me suck my kiss
Kiss me please pervert me stick with this
Is she talking dirty
Give to me sweet sacred bliss
Your mouth was made to suck my kiss

Red Hot Chilli Peppers- Suck My Kiss

Jess xxx

[FineyMcFine]

linked word = heaven

And no one seems to know that this is heaven
They say we only know it by and by
That someday all will be revealed
Well, here it is:

There's a two-lane county road in northern Jersey
Winding up a hill beside a lake
Just before the road winds to an end
Hazel's house
Go on in

Richard Shindell, "Hazel's House"

[Candleshoe]

Linked words: Heaven, country

Almost heaven, West Virginia
Blue Ridge Mountains, Shenandoah Rver
Life is old there, older than the trees
Younger than the mountains, blowing like a breeze

Country roads, take me home
To the place, I belong
West Virginia, mountain momma
Take me home, country roads

Take Me Home, Country Roads - John Denver

[kisstheviolets]

linked words: virginia, blue ridge, others i don't feel like pinpointing cause you get the picture

you think you'll find some mountains
in western colorado
fifty weeks of snowy peaks
is where you're gonna be
but babe the rocky mountains are gradually eroding
the hills of coors are nothing more
than blue ridge wannabes

a turkey on it's belly
a chicken on it's back
anyway you look at it
you'll find her on the map
she revels in the seasons
shakes hands with the north
hugs the land of dixie while dancing on the porch

you think that autumns in new england
are the greatest of them all
but give me sweet virginia for the fireworks of fall
the prettiest october in all the fifty states
just drive up to the skyline
park the car and wait

so grow up colorado
excuse me tennessee
if you don't mind, north caroline
here's where i want to be

when you're talking home
you mean the old dominion
just southeast of heaven to the surf and the hills
she's the best of thirteen sisters
and thirty seven more
sweet sweet virginia always keeps an open door

"old dominion" - eddie from ohio

[Candleshoe]

Linked words : New England at the very least

You spend an awful lot of time in Massachusetts
Seems Like every other week you've got a meeting waiting there
Business must be booming or could something else
Be moving in the air up there

You say that it's important for our future
An executive on his way up has got to play the part
Each time duty calls you got to give it all
You've got to with all your heart

When whoever's in New England is through with you
And Boston finds better things to do
You know it's not too late 'cause you'll always have a place to go
When whoever's in New England's through with you

Whoever's in New England - Reba McEntire

[kisstheviolets]

Linked word: Massachusetts

Feel I'm goin' back to Massachusetts,
Something's telling me I must go home.
And the lights all went out in Massachusetts
The day I left her standing on her own.

Tried to hitch a ride to San Francisco,
Gotta do the things I wanna do.
And the lights all went out in Massachusetts
They brought me back to see my way with you.

Talk about the life in Massachusetts,
Speak about the people I have seen,
And the lights all went out in Massachusetts
And Massachusetts is one place I have seen.

I will remember Massachusetts...

"Massachusetts" - the Bee Gees

[Foomatic]

linked words = San Francisco

All across the nation such a strange vibration
People in motion
There's a whole generation with a new explanation
People in motion people in motion

For those who come to San Francisco
Be sure to wear some flowers in your hair
If you come to San Francisco
Summertime will be a love-in there

San Francisco, Scott Mckenzie

[Tues]

(Querida, un serenata en la lluvia...)

linked = people, love, summertime

Do some people wind up with the one that they adore
In a heart-shaped hotel room, it’s what a heart is for
The bubble floats so madly will it stay sky-high
Hello partner, kiss your name bye-bye

Ooh sometimes...

Romantic Piscean seeks angel in disguise
Chinese-speaking girlfriend big brown eyes
Liverpudlian lady, sophisticated male
Hello partner, tell me love can’t fail

And it’s you and me in the summertime
We’ll be hand in hand down in the park
With a squeeze and a sigh and that twinkle in your eye
And all the sunshine banishes the dark

“Summertime” – The Sundays

[Foomatic]

linked words = "And it's you and me"

All of the things that I want to say
Just aren't coming out right
I'm tripping on words, you got my head spinning
I don't know where to go from here

Cause it's you and me and all of the people
With nothing to do, nothing to prove
And it's you and me and all of the people and
I don't know why I can't keep my eyes off you

You and Me, Lifehouse

[meretricious]

linked word = "words"

all your life you've waited
for love to come and stay
and now that i have found you
you must not slip away

i know it's hard believing
the words you've heard before
but darlin' you must trust them
just once more

cause baby goodbye doesn't mean forever
let me tell you goodbye doesn't mean
we'll never be together again
if you wake up and i'm not there, i won't be long away
cause the things you do, my goodbye girl
will bring me back to you

David Gates, "goodbye girl"

[hermitfish]

linked word = together

But if all of these dreams might find their way
Into my day to day scene
I'd be under the impression
I was somewhere in between
With only two,
Just me and you,
Not so many things we got to do
Or places we got to be
We'll sit beneath the mango tree

Yeah its always better when we're together
Mmm we're somewhere in between together
Well its always better when we're together
Yeah, its always better when we're together

I believe in memories
They look so pretty when I sleep
And when I wake up,
You look so pretty sleeping next to me
But there is not enough time,
And there is no song I could sing
And there is no combination of words I could say
But I will still tell you one thing
We're better together

Jack Johnson -"Better Together"

[FineyMcFine]

Linked word = mango

Now she’s thinking of the red soil and the mango trees
In her mind she’s still splashing round down on Cable Beach
And her eyes, they are as rich and faraway as the sunset there
She’s not taking in a word I say
Well I might as well be talking to myself

The Waifs, "Take It In"
