    Song and Lyrics

    Post up the lyrics you love.

     

    Run
    Snow patrol
     
     I'll sing it one last time for you
     Then we really have to go
     You've been the only thing that's right
     In all I've done
     
     And I can barely look at you
     But every single time I do
     I know we'll make it anywhere
     Away from here
     
     Light up, light up
     As if you have a choice
     Even if you cannot hear my voice
     I'll be right beside you dear
     
     Louder louder
     And we'll run for our lives
     I can hardly speak I understand
     Why you can't raise your voice to say
     
     To think I might not see those eyes
     Makes it so hard not to cry
     And as we say our long goodbyes
     I nearly do
     
     Light up... (chorus)
     
     Slower slower
     We don't have time for that
     I just want to find an easier way
     To get out of our little heads
     
     Have heart my dear
     We're bound to be afraid
     Even if it's just for a few days
     Making up for all this mess

    Re: Song and Lyrics

    Thanks guys. Feel free to post you own!

    To keep up with the FF theme, and since that one was kind of depressing, here is another good one:

     

    Strange and Beautiful
    Aqualung

    I've been watching your world from afar,
    I've been trying to be where you are,
    And I've been secretly falling apart,
    I'll see.
    To me, you're strange and you're beautiful,
    You'd be so perfect with me but you just can't see,
    You turn every head but you don't see me.

    I'll put a spell on you,
    You'll fall asleep and I'll put a spell on you.
    And when I wake you,
    I'll be the first thing you see, lyricstop
    And you'll realise that you love me.

    Yeah...
    Yeah...

    Sometimes, the last thing you want comes in first,
    Sometimes, the frist thing you want never comes,
    And I know, the waiting is all you can do,
    Sometimes...

    I'll put a spell on you,
    You'll fall asleep,
    I'll put a spell on you,
    And when I wake you,
    I'll be the first thing you see,
    And you'll realise that you love me.

    I'll put a spell on you,
    You'll fall asleep 'cos I'll put a spell on you,
    And when I wake you,
    I'll be the first thing you see,
    And you'll realise that you love me, yeah...

    yeah...
    yeah...
    yeah...
    yeah...

    Re: Song and Lyrics

    Argh, I wish that one VMV had the proper audio, the song is off a tad. Here is another one where the audio isn't weird on the high notes... although not as good as the other one IMHO.

    Re: Song and Lyrics

    My favorite song is way back into love, and here is the video, hope u guys love it. Big Smile

     

     

    I've been living with a shadow overhead
    I've been sleeping with a cloud above my bed
    I've been lonely for so long
    Trapped in the past, I just can't seem to move on

    I've been hiding all my hopes and dreams away
    Just in case I ever need em again someday
    I've been setting aside time
    To clear a little space in the corners of my mind

    All I want to do is find a way back into love
    I can't make it through without a way back into love
    Oh oh oh

    I've been watching but the stars refuse to shine
    I've been searching but I just don't see the signs
    I know that it's out there
    There's got to be something for my soul somewhere

    I've been looking for someone to shed some light
    Not somebody just to get me through the night

    I could use some direction
    And I'm open to your suggestions

    All I want to do is find a way back into love
    I can't make it through without a way back into love
    And if I open my heart again
    I guess I'm hoping you'll be there for me in the end
    oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

    There are moments when I don't know if it's real
    Or if anybody feels the way I feel
    I need inspiration
    Not just another negotiation

    All I want to do is find a way back into love
    I can't make it through without a way back into love
    And if I open my heart to you
    I'm hoping you'll show me what to do
    And if you help me to start again
    You know that I'll be there for you in the end
    oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

    Re: Song and Lyrics

    Heh, thanks. Those are all from the cut scenes of the Final Fantasy games (X and X2 I'm told)... although that last one I posted was from the Final Fantasy movie.

    You guys can correct me if I'm wrong. I've only played VIII and while I really liked it, I never did finished it.

    Re: Song and Lyrics

    While I was browsing my ipod, I ran into another song I like by Aqualung. I think you will like this one maple.

    Brighter than Sunshine
    Aqualung

    I never understood before
    I never knew what love was for
    My heart was broke, my head was sore
    What a feeling

    Tied up in ancient history
    I didnt believe in destiny
    I look up you're standing next to me
    What a feeling

    What a feeling in my soul
    Love burns brighter than sunshine
    Brighter than sunshine
    Let the rain fall, i don't care
    I'm yours and suddenly you're mine
    Suddenly you're mine
    And it's brighter than sunshine

    I never saw it happening
    I'd given up and given in
    I just couldn't take the hurt again
    What a feeling

    I didn't have the strength to fight
    Suddenly you seemed so right
    Me and you
    What a feeling

    What a feeling in my soul
    Love burns brighter than sunshine
    It's brighter than sunshine
    Let the rain fall, I don't care
    I'm yours and suddenly you're mine
    Suddenly you're mine

    It's brighter than the sun
    It's brighter than the sun
    It's brighter than the sun, sun, shine.

    Love will remain a mystery
    But give me your hand and you will see
    Your heart is keeping time with me

    What a feeling in my soul
    Love burns brighter than sunshine
    It's brighter than sunshine
    Let the rain fall, I don't care
    I'm yours and suddenly you're mine
    Suddenly you're mine

    I got a feeling in my soul ... [repeat chorus to end]

     

    I'll start looking for non-love themed songs now before the community at large revokes my man card.

    Re: Song and Lyrics

    Hopefully this redeems me some. If it wasn't for the fact that this amv kicks some serious A, I probably wouldn't be posting up this one.

     

     

    Blow me Away
    Breaking Benjamin

    They fall in line
    One at a time
    Ready to play
    I can’t see them anyway
    No time to lose
    We’ve got to move
    Steady your hand
    I am losing sight again
    Fire your guns
    Its time to run
    Blow me away
    I will stay unless I may
    After the fall
    We’ll shake it off
    Show me the way

    Only the strongest will survive
    Lead me to heaven when we die
    I have a shadow on the wall
    I’ll be the one to save us all

    There’s nothing left
    So save your breath
    Lying and wait
    Caught inside this tidal wave
    You’re covers blown
    No where to go
    Holding your fate
    Knowing that I will walk alone
    Fire your guns
    Its time to run
    Blow me away
    I will stay unless I may
    After the fall
    We’ll shake it off
    Show me the way

    Only the strongest will survive
    Lead me to heaven when we die
    I have a shadow on the wall
    I’ll be the one to save us all
    You wanted it back

    Only the strongest will survive
    Lead me to heaven when we die
    I have a shadow on the wall
    I’ll be the one to save us all
    Save us all

    Re: Song and Lyrics

    Credit to Auden for finding this one. A real good one IMO.

     

    The Cheyenne Line
    The Ataris

    In silence, I like to think out loud
    You say this is the end
    I know it's not the end
    I took a picture
    Of heaven when we broke down
    Across the shining light
    I never will forget
    The color of last night
    Over us

    We missed the point in living
    So caught up in this moment
    We threw out all convictions
    And traded them for substance
    This life you hold so near
    Will fade in time...

    And so it goes
    No we won't let go
    If you are alive
    Then be truly alive
    Just open up your eyes
    Pay attention to the signs
    The color of the sky in this night

    We missed the point in living
    So caught up in this moment
    We threw out all convictions
    And traded them for substance
    This life we hold so dear
    Will fade in...
    Time spend wasted on a lie
    It's time you found some frame of mind
    This life you hold so near
    Will fade in time

    We missed the point in living
    So caught up in this moment
    We threw out all convictions
    And traded them for substance
    This life we hold so dear
    Will fade in time

    And so it goes
    No we won't let go
    And so it goes
    No no you won't let go
    This life you hold so dear
    Will fade in time...

    Re: Song and Lyrics

    A great pick-me-up song. And who can turn down a good Bleach AMV? Last song I'll post up today, before anyone starts throwing around the 'no life' curse at me.

     

    Believe
    Yellowcard


    Think about the love inside the strength of heart
    Think about the heroes saving life in the dark
    Climbing higher through the fire, time was running out
    Never knowing you weren't going to be coming down alive
    But you still came back for me
    You were strong and you believed

    Everything is gonna be alright
    Everything is gonna be alright
    Everything is gonna be alright
    Be strong. Believe.
    Be strong. Believe.

    Think about the chance I never had to say
    Thank you for giving up your life that day
    Never fearing, only hearing voices calling out
    Let it all go, the life that you know, just to bring it down alive
    And you still came back for me
    You were strong and you believed

    Everything is gonna be alright
    Everything is gonna be alright
    Everything is gonna be alright
    Be strong. Believe.

    (Again today, we take into our hearts and minds those who perished on this site one year ago, and also those who came to toil in the rubble to bring order out of chaos, to help us make sense of our despair)

    Wanna hold my wife when I get home
    Wanna tell the kids they'll never know how much I love to see them smile
    Wanna make a change or two right now
    Wanna live a life like you somehow
    Wanna make your sacrifice worthwhile

    Everything is gonna be alright
    Everything is gonna be alright
    Everything is gonna be alright
    Be strong. Believe.

    Everything is gonna be alright
    Everything is gonna be alright
    Everything is gonna be alright
    Be strong. Believe.

    Think about the love inside the strength of heart
    Think about the heroes saving life in the dark
    Think about the chance I never had to say
    Thank you for giving up your life that day

    (The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here)

    Re: Song and Lyrics

    After being forced into watching 27 Dresses, I was compelled to look up the lyrics.

     

    Bennie and the Jets
    Elton John 

    Hey kids, shake it loose together
    The spotlight's hitting something
    That's been known to change the weather
    We'll kill the fatted calf tonight
    So stick around
    You're gonna hear electric music
    Solid walls of sound

    Say, Candy and Ronnie, have you seen them yet
    But they're so spaced out, Bennie and the Jets
    Oh but they're weird and they're wonderful
    Oh Bennie she's really keen
    She's got electric boots a mohair suit
    You know I read it in a magazine
    Bennie and the Jets

    Hey kids, plug into the faithless
    Maybe they're blinded
    But Bennie makes them ageless
    We shall survive, let us take ourselves along
    Where we fight our parents out in the streets
    To find who's right and who's wrong

    No Christmas For Me
    KokoKaina

    No, there won't be Christmas for me this year
    For the simple reason being you're not here

    There won't be eggnogs by the cozy fire
    There won't be glasses of mulled wine either
    There won't even be a Christmas tree
    'cause you're not here to light it up with me

    Oh, Santa honey, won't you bring my baby back to me?
    'cause i miss him, yes, i miss him oh so dearly

    I haven't sent him his Christmas card
    'cause that would mean we really are apart
    The Christmas stockings are as empty as my heart

    I know you're away doing something good
    But just this once, baby, if you could
    You know you can, and you know should
    'cause Christmas won't be Christmas...

    without you

    Two days to Christmas and i'm still waiting outside
    Wishing upon a star that you'll be coming home tonight
    But it was cold, it was getting late
    Sadly, i crept back into bed
    But then i felt a soft kiss on my cheek
    I opened my eyes, and there my baby was...

    with me!

    My baby came back for me
    Merry Christmas, baby
