Xalimopatra Posted January 22, 2006 Girls... Post the lyrics for a song that best describes your current mood or a song you just happen to be listening to. Fantasia-Truth is. Ran into an old friend yesterday Caught me by surprise when he called my name He was a familiar face, from a chapter in my past Talked for a while, I smiled and then Said that he was seeing somebody and Told me this was gonna last Showing me her photograph And all the feelings I thought were gone Came rushing back to me at once Tried to smile and hide the way I felt But I was thinking to myself (Truth is) I never got over you (Truth is) Wish I was standing in her shoes (Truth is) And when it's all said and done Guess I’m still in love with you (Truth is) I never should have let you go (Truth is) And it's killing me cuz now I know (Truth is) And when it's all said and done Guess I’m still in love with you We reminisce on the way things used to be Shed a couple laughs, shed some memories Talked about the things that changed Some for good and some for bad Then he said good-bye and he paid for lunch Promised that we'd always keep in touch Grabbed my bags and grabbed my thoughts, walked away and that was that And all the feelings I thought were gone Came rushing back to me at once Tried to smile and hide the way I felt But I was thinking to myself (Truth is) I never got over you (Truth is) Wish I was standing in her shoes (Truth is) And when it's all said and done Guess I’m still in love with you (Truth is) I never should have let you go (Truth is) And it's killing me cuz now I know (Truth is) And when it's all said and done Guess I’m still in love with you Listen Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sheherazade Posted January 22, 2006 Heard this today and stopped to listen. Been a while since I've heard it. All that you have is your soul, Tracy Chapman My mama told me 'Cause she say she learned the hard way Say she want to spare the children She say don't give or sell your soul away 'Cause all that you have is your soul Don't be tempted by the shiny apple Don't you eat of a bitter fruit Hunger only for a taste of justice Hunger only for a world of truth 'Cause all that you have is your soul I was a pretty young girl once I had dreams I had hight hopes I married a man he stole my heart away He gave his love but what a high price I paid And all that you have is your soul Why was I such a young fool Thought I'd make history Making babies was the best I could do Thought I'd made something that could be mine forever Found out the hard way one can't possess another And all that you have is your soul I thought thought that I could find a way To beat the system To make a deal and have no depts to pay I'd take it all take it all I'd run away Me for myself first class and first rate But all that you have is your soul Here I am waiting for a better day A second chance A little luck come my way A hope to dream a hope that I can sleep again And wake in the world with a clear conscience and clean hands 'Cause all that you have is your soul All that you have All that you have All that you have Is your soul Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nailah Posted January 23, 2006 For some reason i've been very stressed out lately with work, school, and family etc. Anyways, this song always perks me right up and keeps me focused. It's called Breakaway by Kelly Clarkson. - Grew up in a small town And when the rain would fall down I'd just stare out my window Dreamin' of what could be And if I'd end up happy I would pray Trying hard to reach out But when I tried to speak out Felt like no one could hear me Wanting to belong here But something felt so wrong here So I prayed I could break away [chorus] I'll spread my wings and I'll learn how to fly I'll do what it takes till I touch the sky And I'll make a wish, take a chance, make a change And break away Out of the darkness and into the sun But I won't forget all the ones that I love I'll take a risk, take a chance, make a change And break away Wanna feel the warm breeze Sleep under a palm tree Feel the rush of the ocean Get on board a fast train Travel on a jetplane, far away And break away [chorus] I'll spread my wings and I'll learn how to fly I'll do what it takes till I touch the sky And I'll make a wish, take a chance, make a change And break away Out of the darkness and into the sun I won't forget all the ones that I love I gotta take a risk, take a chance, make a change And break away Buildings with a hundred floors Swinging round revolving doors Maybe I don't know where they'll take me But, gotta keep moving on, moving on Fly away, break away [chorus 2] I'll spread my wings and I'll learn how to fly Though it's not easy to tell you goodbye, gotta Take a risk, take a chance, make a change And break away Out of the darkness and into the sun But I won't forget the place I come from I gotta take a risk, take a chance, make a change And break away Break away Break away Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Socod_badne Posted January 23, 2006 I worked at the Ottawa airport couple summers ago and there was this moody, perennially carrying this doleful-look face co-worker. He would incessantly play almost to benumbing levels this song: I drink alone by George Thorogood. I drink alone, yeah, with nobody else I drink alone, yeah, with nobody else You know when I drink alone, I prefer to be by myself Every morning just before breakfast, I don't want no coffee or tea Just me and good buddy Wiser, that's all I ever need 'Cause I drink alone, yeah, with nobody else Yeah, you know when I drink alone, I prefer to be by myself The other night I laid sleeping, and I woke from a terrible dream So I caught up my pal Jack Daniel's, and his partner Jimmy Beam And we drank alone, yeah, with nobody else Yeah, you know when I drink alone, I prefer to be by myself The other day I got invited to a party, but I stayed home instead Just me and my pal Johnny Walker, and his brothers Black and Red And we drank alone, yeah, with nobody else Yeah, you know when I drink alone, I prefer to be by myself My whole family done give up on me, and it makes me feel oh so bad The only one who will hang out with me, is my dear old granddad And we drink alone, yeah, with nobody else Yeah, you know when I drink alone, I prefer to be by myself Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cara. Posted January 23, 2006 This song is super-melodic, and I love the imaginative way McLachlan expresses yearning: "you speak to me in riddles/and you speak to me in rhymes". Possession, Sarah McLachlan Listen as the wind blows From across the great divide Voices trapped in yearning Memories trapped in time The night is my companion And solitude my guide Would I spend forever here And not be satisfied And I would be the one To hold you down Kiss you so hard I’ll take your breath away And after I’d wipe away the tears Just close your eyes dear Through this world I’ve stumbled So many times betrayed Trying to find an honest word To find the truth enslaved Oh you speak to me in riddles and You speak to me in rhymes My body aches to breathe your breath You words keep me alive And I would be the one To hold you down Kiss you so hard I’ll take your breath away And after I’d wipe away the tears Just close your eyes dear Into this night I wander It’s morning that I dread Another day of knowing of The path I fear to tread Oh into the sea of waking dreams I follow without pride Nothing stands between us here And I won’t be denied And I would be the one To hold you down Kiss you so hard I’ll take your breath away And after I’d wipe away the tears Just close your eyes dear Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pucca Posted January 23, 2006 this song just gets me laughing (looks quite odd when i listen to it on the bus and start laughing... ) but if yall saw the video you'd understand... "No Surprise" by: THEORY OF A DEADMAN Friday is when you left me So I'll drink myself to sleep And Sunday is when I'll wake up Not to remember a thing My friends all say the same thing I don't know my new girl too well (I know) That all this lying gets to me And no one seems to give a shit (The way) She talks to every guy in the bar (I guess) It should've raised some kind of alarm Who'd ever think I'd go and end up? Like all the other guys that you're gunning for! Well it ain't no surprise That you turn me on and leave It ain't no surprise That you turn it around on me I don't know why You won't give me what I need It ain't no surprise That that ***** is leavin' me My friends are mean to me They say I don't break up too well (They know) All this crying gets to me And no one seems to give a shit Well I know you want to So go on and say it Just go on and say it Just go on and say it Well it ain't no surprise That you turn me on and leave It ain't no surprise That you turn it around on me I don't know why You won't give me what I need It ain't no surprise That that ***** is leavin' me (Leavin' me) Friday is when you left me So I drank myself to sleep And Sunday I never woke up Well it ain't no surprise That you turn me on and leave It ain't no surprise That you turn it around on me I don't know why You won't give me what I need It ain't no surprise That that ***** is leavin' me That that ***** is leavin' me Watch video *watch till the end..* Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Faheema. Posted January 23, 2006 Dido Life For Rent I haven't ever really found a place that I call home I never stick around quite long enough to make it I apologize that once again I'm not in love But it's not as if I mind that your heart ain't exactly breaking It's just a thought, only a thought But if my life is for rent and I don't learn to buy Well I deserve nothing more than I get Cos nothing I have is truly mine I've always thought that I would love to live by the sea To travel the world alone and live more simply I have no idea what's happened to that dream Cos there's really nothing left here to stop me It's just a thought, only a thought But if my life is for rent and I don't learn to buy Well I deserve nothing more than I get Cos nothing I have is truly mine If my life is for rent and I don't learn to buy Well I deserve nothing more than I get Cos nothing I have is truly mine While my heart is a shield and I won't let it down While I am so afraid to fail so I won't even try Well how can I say I'm alive If my life is for rent and I don't learn to buy Well I deserve nothing more than I get Cos nothing I have is truly mine If my life is for rent and I don't learn to buy Well I deserve nothing more than I get Cos nothing I have is truly mine Cos nothing I have is truly mine Cos nothing I have is truly mine Cos nothing I have is truly mine Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Born Friday Posted January 23, 2006 Listening to this lady always moves me...You can't help but be inspired by this song. Feeling Good by Nina Simone. Birds flying high you know how I feel Sun in the sky you know how I feel Reeds driftin' on by you know how I feel It's a new dawn It's a new day It's a new life For me And I'm feeling good Fish in the sea you know how I feel River running free you know how I feel Blossom in the tree you know how I feel Dragonfly out in the sun you know what I mean, don't you know Butterflies all havin' fun you know what I mean Sleep in peace when day is done That's what I mean And this old world is a new world And a bold world For me Stars when you shine you know how I feel Scent of the pine you know how I feel Oh freedom is mine And I know how I feel Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
