Song Lyrics

Recommended Posts

Songs about former loves always strike a wistful note with me. Here's one from Elvis Costello:

 

 

ALISON

 

oh its so funny to be seeing you

after all these years.

but the way you look i understand

that you are not impressed.

but i heard you let that little friend of mine

take off your party dress.

 

i'm not gonna get too sentimental

like those other sticky valentines

cause i don't know if you've

been loving somebody,

i only know it isn't mine.

 

Alison, i know this world is killing you

oh, Alison

my aim is true.

 

well i see you got a husband now.

did he leave your pretty fingers

lying in the wedding cake?

you used to hold him right in your hands

i bet he took all he can take.

sometimes i wish that i can stop you

from talking

when i hear those silly things that you say

i think somebody better put out those

big lights

cause i can't stand to see you this way.

 

Alison

i know this world is killing you

oh Alison

my aim is true.

my aim is true.

Joel, Here's one of my favorites. ;)

 

WINDOWS OF OUR SOULS

Side A

 

Looking through your eyes, I can see the sadness you're trying to hide.

Open up your heart and wipe away those tears.

There's no need to worry, I'll take care of all your fears.

Those eyes don't lie, so please tell me why.

 

Baby, put your heart at ease. Baby, whenever our eyes meet.

Honey, when you're wrapped around my arms. Honey, I feel I'm above the ground.

The search is over, tomorrow will be ours.

 

Though I caused you pain in the past, Now I realize our love will last.

We saw the joys and the sorrows thru the windows of our souls.

There's no need to doubt, you're an angel from above.

 

 

Baby, put your heart at ease. Baby, whenever our eyes meet.

Honey, when you're wrapped around my arms. Honey, I feel I'm above the ground.

The search is over, tomorrow will be ours

 

 

And how can I explain, when I'm in a state of confusion...

You should tell me what to do. To undo all the hurt that we do....

 

'Cause deep inside I know that I'm still in love with you (still it's you).

 

 

Baby, put your heart at ease. Baby, whenever our eyes meet.

Honey, when you're wrapped around my arms. Honey, I feel I'm above the ground.

The search is over, tomorrow will be ours...

 

 

Obscure, but sweet. ;)

@joel: you wanna feel the hurt? ;)

 

 

AKALA KO

 

Akala ko ako lamang

Ang iibigin mo

Magpakailan man

Ngunit sa isang saglit

ika'y nawala sa akin

 

Kay sakit isipin

Kay bigat sa damdamin

Sana'y maulit pa ang mga sandali

Mga sandali nung tayo'y

Magkapiling pa

 

Akala ko

Na tayo na

Akala ko

Ikaw na

Balang Araw

Ay mahahanap din

Ang pag-ibig na tunay

Para sa akin

 

Akala ko ako lamang

Ang iibigin mo

Magpakailan man

Ngunit sa isang saglit

ika'y nawala sa akin

 

Kay sakit isipin

Kay bigat sa damdamin

Sana'y maulit pa ang mga sandali

Mga sandali nung tayo'y

Magkapiling pa

 

Akala ko

Na tayo na

Akala ko

Ikaw na

Balang Araw

Ay mahahanap din

Ang pag-ibig na tunay

Para sa akin

 

Ano ba nangyari

Sa ating dalawa?

Pag-ibig ay naglaho

At ikaw ay nag iba

Pangako natin

Ay binale-wala

Heto Ako ngayon nag-iisa... :cry:

 

Akala Ko...

Akala Ko...

Akala Ko...

HOLD ME IN YOUR ARMS

Rick Astley

 

We've been trying for a long time

To say what we want to say

But feelings don't come easy

To express in a simple way

 

But we all have feelings

We all need loving

And who would be the fool to say,

that if you

 

Hold me in your arms

I won't feel better

If you hold me in your arms

We can brave this storm together

 

We both know there's a problem

A problem that we've got to face

So put your trust in me, lover

No - one's ever gonna take your place

 

'Cos we all have a problem

We all have fears

But there's always got to be a way

 

Yes we all have feelings

We all need loving

And you would be a fool to say,

that if you

 

Hold me in your arms

I won't feel better

If you hold me in your arms

We can brave this storm together

 

(solo)You only have to hold me

Touch me to make me feel so good

You only have to hold me

Feel me

To make me feel the way you know I should

 

Hold me in your arms

Hold me in your arms

Hold me in your arms

Hold me in your arms

IT WOULD TAKE A STRONG, STRONG MAN

Rick Astley

 

My heart starts breaking

When I think of making

A plan to let you go

I keep thinking maybe tomorrow

I'm gonna let you know

 

But when I think about leaving

I think about losing

The only love I ever knew

Everytime I think of you

 

My heart starts aching

My hands keep shaking

And you know, you know, you know

It would take a strong, strong man

To ever let you go (to ever let you go)

To ever let you go

 

My heart's been hurting

When I see you flirting

Every night out on the floor

I keep thinking maybe tomorrow

You'll grow to love me more

 

But whenever we're together

I could leave you never

Even though you treat me cruel

Every time I look at you

 

My heart starts aching

My hands keep shaking

And you know, you know, you know

It would take a strong, strong man

To ever let you go (to ever let you go)

To ever let you go

 

I tried to resist you

When you're gone all I ever do is miss you

Anyone in love would know

Anyone with half a heart

Could never let you go

 

But when I think about leaving

I think about losing

The only girl I ever loved

Can't you tell me why do you hurt me

I guess some people never see

Especially a fool like me

 

My heart starts aching

My hands keep shaking

And you know, you know, you know

It would take a strong, strong man

 

To ever let you go

To ever let you go (to ever let you go)

To ever let you go

I’ll never let you go

To ever let you go

To ever let you go

....just sing those blues away. change is constant. life.....

 

Shattered Dreams - Johnny Hates Jazz

 

So much for your promises,

They died the day you let me go,

Caught up in a web of lies,

But it was just too late to know,

I thought it was you,

Who would stand by my side…

 

Chorus

And now you've given me, given me,

Nothing but shattered dreams, shattered dreams,

Feel like I could run away, run away,

From this empty heart,

You said you'd die for me...

 

Woke up to reality,

And found the future not so bright,

I dreamt the impossible,

That maybe things could work out right,

I thought it was you,

Who would do me no wrong...

 

Repeat Chorus twice

 

From this empty heart...

 

I thought it was you,

Who said you'd die for love...

From Dirty Dancing

 

 

She's Like The Wind - Patrick Swayze

 

She's like the wind through my tree

She rides the night next to me

She leads me through moonlight

Only to burn me with the sun

She's taken my heart

But she doesn't know what she's done

 

*Feel her breath on my face

Her body close to me

Can't look in her eyes

She's out of my league

Just a fool to believe

(I have anything she needs)

She's like the wind

 

I look in the mirror and all see

Is a young old man with only a dream

Am I just fooling myself

That she'll stop the pain

Living with out her

I'd go insane

(Repeat * twice)

 

Just a fool to believe…

She's like the wind....

lyssahot...here you go.

 

 

Angel of the Morning - Juice Newton

 

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.
