NEVER ENDING STORY
Limahl
(from the film, The Never Ending Story)


Turn around
Look at what you see....
In her face
The mirror of your dreams....

Make believe I'm everywhere
Given in the light
Written on the pages
Is the answer to a never ending story...
Ah....

Reach the stars
Fly a fantasy....
Dream a dream
And what you see will be....

Rhymes that keep their secrets
Will unfold behind the clouds
And there upon a rainbow
Is the answer to a never ending story...
Ah....
Story...
Ah....

(instrumental)

Show no fear
For she may fade away...
In your hand
The birth of a new day...

Rhymes that keep their secrets
Will unfold behind the clouds
And there upon a rainbow
Is the answer to a never ending story
Ah....
Never ending story...
Ah....
Never ending story...
Ah....
Never ending story...
Ah....
(fade)

So Low by Self

Hello
meet my problems
i only miss you when i m with you
i gotta fly car
to jet around town
gone sour to the bone
gone bad to the marrow
financial situation's depleted
guess a slap in the face
is what i really needed
from a strong hand to
make me a man
what more could i ask?
what more could i stand?

i'm so low
that i wish i was dead
with a knife in my chest
and a bullet through my head
i'm so low
that i wish i was dead
must i go on?

sold all my friends today
i'm so low that i wish i was dead
I gave everything away
now i'm bound only by twine and thread

just give me time
don't give me time to miss you
just give me time
don't give me time to miss you

on a short leash
yet she was earthbound
so i threw her in the lost and found
now she's scaring me
a fine charity
with a pink trombone
and a tuning key
so just ignore my footprints
and just ignore the sand
my epitaph stands before me
so wear your ego
to the funeral of a
frightened man

saw her standing in the doorway
fade away and i believe in it
if i were dead
if i were dead
if i were dead
she wouldn't love me anymore

[Cube]

Well I'm back again!

Oh no! I missed slow hands goodbye.

I had some serious Home work for Differential Equations on that day though.

Boy, I think my College work is getting to me, I just haven't felt like myself lately. Well I only got four weeks left until the ultimate F word, FINALS.

does anyone read the stuff I put between songs?

Well this is another one I got from MTV2. The lead singer from Coldplay(name?) just has such a beautiful voice. doesn't he?

Coldplay - Trouble
O no, I see,

I spun a web, it's tangled up with me,

And I lost my head,

The thought of all the stupid things I said,

O no what's this?

A spider web, and I'm caught in the middle,

I turned to run,

The thought of all the stupid things I've done,


I never meant to cause you trouble,

And I never meant to do you wrong,

And I, well if I ever caused you trouble,

O no, I never meant to do you harm.

O no I see,

A spider web and it's me in the middle,

So I twist and turn,

Here I am in love in a bubble,


Singing, I never meant to cause you trouble,

I never meant to do you wrong,

And I, well if I ever caused you trouble,

Although I never meant to do you harm.


They spun a web for me,

They spun a web for me,

They spun a web for me.

Well here's a classic

WIND OF CHANGE - The Scorpions

I follow the Moskva down to Gorky Park
Listening to the wind of change
An August summer night soldiers passing by
Listening to the wind of change

The world is closing in and did you ever think
That we could be so close like brothers
The future's in the air I can feel it everywhere
Blowing with the wind of change

Take me to the magic of the moment on a glory night
Where the children of tomorrow dream away
In the wind of change

Walking down the street distant memories
Are buried in the past forever
I follow the Moskva down to Gorky Park
Listening to the wind of change

Take me to the magic of the moment on a glory night
Where the children of tomorrow share their dreams (share their
dreams)
With you and me (with you and me)
Take me to the magic of the moment on a glory night
Where the children of tomorrow dream away
In the wind of change (wind of change)

The wind of change blows straight into the face of time
Like a storm wind that will ring the freedom bell
For peace of mind let your balalaika sing
What my guitar wants to say

Take me (take me) to the magic of the moment
On a glory night (glory night)
Where the children of tomorrow share their dreams (share their
dreams)
With you and me (with you and me)
Take me to the magic of the moment on a glory night (glory night)
Where the children of tomorrow dream away (dream away)
In the wind of change (wind of change

Does any one know a good lirycs search engine, Lyrics world is starting to suck.

As Heaven is Wide by Garbage

Nothing that you say will release you
Nothing that you pray will forgive you
Nothing is what your words mean to me
Something that you did will destroy me
Something that you said will stay with me
Long after you're dead and gone

If flesh could crawl
My skin would fall
From off my bones
And run away from here

As far from God
As heaven is wide
As far from God
As angels can fly

If holy is as holy does
This house will burn straight down to hell
Take it's conscience with it
As it falls

Nothing said could change the fact
My trust was blind
You broke the pact
If God's my witness, God must be blind

If flesh could crawl (I wish)
My skin would fall (I wish)
From off my bones (I wish)
And run away from here (I wish)

As far from God
As heaven is wide
As far from God
As angels can fly

I wish, I wish
I wish, I wish

Take it back I dare you, take it back
No, you can't, you should have thought of that
What's inside a man
That goes so wrong

Choke on guilt, that's far too good for you
Say one word, I'll laugh and bury you
And leave you in the place
Where you left me

If flesh could crawl (I wish)
My skin would fall (I wish)
From off my bones (I wish)
And run away from here (I wish)

As far from God
As heaven is wide
As far from God
As angels can fly

I wish I could fly
As angels can fly

I wish, I wish

Beautiful by Joydrop

if I was beautiful like you, oh the things I would do
those not so blessed would be crying out murder and i'd just laugh and get away
with it too. like you do.

if I was beautiful like you, I would never be at fault
i'd walk in the rain between the raindrops, bringing traffic to a hault.

but that will never be, that will never ever be. cuz i'm not beautiful like you.
i'm beautiful like me.

if I was beautiful like you, i'd be quick to assume. they'd do anything to
please me why not. I see their reaction when you walk into the room.

if I was beautiful like you, i'd have so many friends all fighting for my time
to be next in line. so if I hurt one, I wouldn't have to make amends.

[SlowwHand]

I'm going to slide in as I can, but keep it going.


THE UNKNOWN SOLDIER
The Doors

Wait until the war is over
And we're both a little older
The unknown soldier
Breakfast where the news is read
Television children fed
Unborn living, living dead
Bullet strikes the helmet's head
And it's all over
For the unknown soldier
It's all over
For the unknown soldier
Hut
Hut
Hut ho hee up
Hut
Hut
Hut ho hee up
Hut
Hut
Hut ho hee up
Comp'nee
Halt
Preeee-zent!
Arms!
Make a grave for the unknown soldier
Nestled in your hollow shoulder
The unknown soldier
Breakfast where the news is read
Television children fed
Bullet strikes the helmet's head
And, it's all over
The war is over
It's all over
The war is over
Well, all over, baby
All over, baby
Oh, over, yeah
All over, baby
Wooooo, hah-hah
All over
All over, baby
Oh, woa-yeah
All over
All over
Heeeeyyyy

Slowwhand, great to hear that at least you have access to a computer...

Len - Steal My Sunshine
I was lying on the grass on Sunday morning of last week
Indulging in myself defeat
My mind was thugged all laced and bugged all twisted wrong and beat
A comfortable three feet deep
Now the fuzzy stare from not being there on a confusing morning weak
Impaired my tribal lunar speak
And of course you can't become if you only say what you would have done
So I missed a million miles of fun

I know it's up for me
If you steal my sunshine
Making sure I'm not in too deep
If you steal my sunshine
Keeping versed and on my feet
If you steal my sunshine

Check, c'mere c'mere, c'mere
Wow, look at her
I know
I've never seen sharon look so bad before
I did once before, but this is pretty bad
Yeah, what do you think she got up to last night?
Ha ha ha
Well, I, Karen I love you

I was lying on the bench slide in the park across the street
L-A-T-E-R that week
My sticky paws were in to making straws out of big fat slurpy treats
An incredible eight foot heap
Now the funny glare to pay a gleaming tare in a staring under heat
Involved an under usual feet
And I'm not only among but I invite who I want to come
So I missed a million miles of fun

I know it's up for me
If you steal my sunshine
Making sure I'm not in too deep
If you steal my sunshine
Keeping versed and on my feet
If you steal my sunshine

I know it's done for me
If you steal my sunshine
Not as some and hard to see
If you steal my sunshine
Keeping dumb and built to beat
If you steal my sunshine

My Sunshine
If you steal my sunshine

Don't Give Up
Peter Gabriel

in this proud land we grew up strong
we were wanted all along
I was taught to fight, taught to win
I never thought I could fail

no fight left or so it seems
I am a man whose dreams have all deserted
I've changed my face, I've changed my name
but no one wants you when you lose

don't give up
'cos you have friends
don't give up
you're not beaten yet
don't give up
I know you can make it good

though I saw it all around
never thought I could be affected
thought that we'd be the last to go
it is so strange the way things turn

drove the night toward my home
the place that I was born, on the lakeside
as daylight broke, I saw the earth
the trees had burned down to the ground

don't give up
you still have us
don't give up
we don't need much of anything
don't give up
'cause somewhere there's a place
where we belong

rest your head
you worry too much
it's going to be alright
when times get rough
you can fall back on us
don't give up
please don't give up

'got to walk out of here
I can't take anymore
going to stand on that bridge
keep my eyes down below
whatever may come
and whatever may go
that river's flowing
that river's flowing

moved on to another town
tried hard to settle down
for every job, so many men
so many men no-one needs

don't give up
'cause you have friends
don't give up
you're not the only one
don't give up
no reason to be ashamed
don't give up
you still have us
don't give up now
we're proud of who you are
don't give up
you know it's never been easy
don't give up
'cause I believe there's the a place
there's a place where we belong

Get Up
Van Halen


Feel like throwing in the towel don't be a fool
They're out to knock you out, put you down
For the count
Watch the left, watch the right, below
The belt

They'll run you round and round it's plain to see
It's never gonna stop they'll run ya till you drop
There ain't no power around can keep a good man down
There's still some fight in me
That's how it'll always be
Hold your head up high, look 'em in the eye, never say die
Get up and make it work


You say that love has got you down well that's bull
If love has got you down then love can pick you right back up
There ain't no power around can keep a good man down
Walking down a dead end street
No mercy at your feet
They're holding all the cards, making things so hard, before it goes too far
Get up and make it work
Get up and make it work


SOLO


Feel like throwing in the towel don't be a fool
They're out to knock you out, put you down
For the count
Watch the left, watch the right, below
The belt


There's still some fight in me
That's how it'll always be
Hold your head up high, look 'em in the eye, never say die
Get up and make it work


Get up and make it work
Get up and make it work
Get up and make it work

[SlowwHand]

"But the fighter still remains", so again...

An appeal to the boxer, eh?
Never been down, though Paul Yandell rocked me back on my heels.
He outweighed me by 50 pounds though.


The Boxer
Music & Lyrics : Paul Simon

I am just a poor boy
Though my story's seldom told
I have squandered my resistance
For a pocket full of mumbles such are promises
All lies and jests
Still a man hears what he wants to hear
And disregards the rest
When I left my home and my family
I was no more than a boy
In the company of strangers
In the quiet of the railway station running scared
Laying low, seeking out the poorer quarters
Where the ragged people go
Looking for the places only they would know
Lie la lie ...

Asking only workman's wages
I come looking for a job
But I get no offers,
Just a come-on from the whores on Seventh Avenue
I do declare, there were times when I was so lonesome
I took some comfort there
Lie la lie ...

Then I'm laying out my winter clothes
And wishing I was gone
Going home
Where the New York City winters aren't bleeding me
Bleeding me, going home
In the clearing stands a boxer
And a fighter by his trade
And he carries the reminders
Of ev'ry glove that layed him down
Or cut him till he cried out
In his anger and his shame
"I am leaving, I am leaving"
But the fighter still remains
Lie la lie ...

[boann]

uh huh

insensitive by jan arden

How do you cool your lips
After a summer's kiss
How do you rid the sweat
After the body bliss
How do you turn your eyes
From the romantic glare
How do you block the sound
Of a voice you'd know anywhere

Oh I really should have known
By the time you drove me home
By the vagueness in your eyes
Your casual good-byes
By the chill in your embrace
The expression on your face
That told me
You might have some advice to give
On how to be
Insensitive

How do you numb your skin
After the warmest touch
How do you slow your blood
After the body rush
How do you free your soul
After you've found a friend
How do you teach your heart
It's a crime to fall in love again

Oh you probably won't remember me
It's probably ancient history
I'm one of the chosen few
Who went ahead and fell for you
I'm out of vogue I'm out of touch
I fell too fast - I feel too much
I thought that you might have
Some advice to give on how to be
Insensitive

Rain King by The COunting Crows

When I think of heaven
(Deliver me in a black-winged bird)
I think of flying down into a sea of pens and feathers
And all other instruments of faith and sex and god
In the belly of a black-winged bird
Don't try to feed me
I've been here before and I deserve a little more

I belong in the service of the Queen
I belong everywhere but in between
She's been crying
I've been thinking
And I am the Rain King

Mama, why am I so alone?
I can't go outside
I'm scared I might not make it home
I'm alive but I'm sinking in
If there's anyone at home at your place
Why don't you invite me in
Don't try to bleed me
I've been there before and I deserve a little more

I belong in the service of the Queen
I belong everywhere but in between
She's been lying
I've been sinking
And I am the Rain King

Hey, I only want the same as anyone
Henderson is only waiting for the sun
Oh, it seems night endlessly begins and ends
After all the dreaming I come home again...

When I think of heaven
(Deliver me in a black-winged bird)
I think of dying
Lay me down in a field of flame and heather
Render up my body into the burning heart of God
In the belly of a black-winged bird
Don't try to bleed me
I've been there before and I deserve a little more

I belong in the service of the Queen
I belong everywhere but in between
She's been dying
I've been drinking
And I am the Rain King

Letters to Elise by The CUre

oh elise it doesn't matter what you say
i just can't stay here every yesterday
like keep on acting out the same
the way we act out
every way to smile
forget
and make-believe we never needed
any more than this
any more than this


oh elise it doesn't matter what you do
i know i'll never really get inside of you
to make your eyes catch fire
the way they should
the way the blue could pull me in
if they only would
if they only would
at least i'd lose this sense of sensing something else
that hides away
from me and you
there're worlds to part
with aching looks and breaking hearts
and all the prayers your hands can make
oh i just take as much as you can throw
and then throw it all away
oh i throw it all away
like throwing faces at the sky
like throwing arms round
yesterday
i stood and stared
wide-eyed in front of you
and the face i saw looked back
the way i wanted to
but i just can't hold my tears away
the way you do


elise believe i never wanted this
i thought this time i'd keep all of my promises
i thought you were the girl always dreamed about
but i let the dream go
and the promises broke
and the make-believe ran out...


oh elise
it doesn't matter what you say
i just can't stay here every yesterday
like keep on acting out the same
the way we act out
every way to smile
forget
and make-believe we never needed
any more than this
any more than this


and every time i try to pick it up
like falling sand
as fast as i pick it up
it suns away through my clutching hands
but there's nothing else i can really do
there's nothing else
i can really do
at all…

[SlowwHand]

We Don't Need Another Hero
Tina Turner

Out of the ruins
Out from the wreckage
Can't make the same mistake this time
We are the children
The last generation
We are the ones they left behind
And I wonder when we are ever gonna change
Living under the fear, till nothing else remains

We don't need another hero
We don't need to know the way home
All we want is life beyond
Thunderdome

Looking for something
We can rely on
There's gotta be something better out there
Love and compassion
Their day is coming
All else are castles built in the air
And I wonder when we are ever gonna change
Living under the fear till nothing else remains

All the children say
We don't need another hero
We don't need to know the way home
All we want is life beyond
Thunderdome

So what do we do with our lifes
We leave only a mark
Will our story shine like a light
Or end in the dark
Give it all or nothing

We don't need another hero
We don't need to know the way home
All we want is life beyond
Thunderdome

Angel of the Morning


There'll be no strings to bind your hands
not if my love can't bind your heart.
And there's no need to take a stand
for it was I who chose to start.
I see no need to take me home,
I'm old enough to face the dawn.

Just call me angel of the morning, Angel
just touch my cheek before you leave me, baby.
Just call me angel of the morning, Angel
then slowly turn away from me.

Maybe the sun's light will be dim
and it won't matter anyhow.
If morning's echo says we ve sinned,
well, it was what I wanted now.
And if we're the victims of the night,
I won't be blinded by light.

Just call me angel of the morning, Angel
just touch my cheek before you leave me, baby.
Just call me angel of the morning, Angel
then slowly turn away,
I won't beg you to stay with me
through the tears of the day,
of the years, baby baby baby.

Just call me angel of the morning, Angel
just touch my cheek before you leave me, baby.

[boann]

oh man, i heard this song for the first time today.

Fallin'
Alicia Keys

I keep on fallin' in
And out love with you
Sometimes I love ya
Sometimes you make me
Feel blue
Sometimes I feel good
At times I feel used
I feel you darlin'
Makes me so confused

CHORUS:
I keep on fallin'
In and out
Of love with you
I never loved someone
The way that I loved you

Oh, oh
I never felt this way

How do you give me
So much pleasure
And cause me
So much pain?
Yeah yeah
'Cause when I think
I've takin' more
Than would a fool
I start fallin'
Back in love with you

Oh baby

I, I, I, I fallin' Fall, fall, fall

I keep on fallin'
In and out
Of love with you
I never loved someone
The way that I loved you

Oh, oh
I never felt this way

Your Woman by WHite Town
Just tell me what you've got to say to me,
I've been waiting for so long to hear the truth,
It comes as no surprise at all you see,
So cut the crap and tell me that we're through.

Now I know your heart, I know your mind,
You don't even know you're beening unkind,
So much for all your high brow Marxist ways,
Just use me up and then you walk away.
Boy, you can't play me that way.

Well I guess what you say is true,
I could never be the right kind of girl for you,
I could never be your woman.

When I saw my best friend yesterday,
She said she never liked you from the start,
Well me, I wish that I could claim the same,
But you always knew you held my heart.

You're such a charming, handsome man,
Now I think I finally understand,
Is it in your genes?, I don't know,
But I'll soon find out, that's for sure,
Why did you play me this way?

Well I guess what you say is true -
I could never be the right kind of girl for you!

Well I guess what they say is true,
I could never spend my life with a man like you.
