List 100 songs and their lyrics that mean something to me

This song touches me on a deep level. The music is soulful and it speaks of such a love that everyone dreams of. A lover that makes you like home again. Some married people don’t even feel that kind of love.

Whenever I’m alone with you
You make me feel like I am home again
Whenever I’m alone with you
You make me feel like I am whole again

Whenever I’m alone with you
You make me feel like I am young again
Whenever I’m alone with you
You make me feel like I am fun again

However far away, I will always love you
However long I stay, I will always love you
Whatever words I say, I will always love you
I will always love you

Whenever I’m alone with you
You make me feel like I am free again
Whenever I’m alone with you
You make me feel like I am clean again

However far away, I will always love you
However long I stay, I will always love you
Whatever words I say, I will always love you
I will always love you

This song is so beautiful. It’s about taking another chance at love even though each of them have been hurt before.

A drink for one is never fun
A sip deadens the pain
She’s sick of games and learning names
She puts her black book away
She scans the place for a friendly face
Suddenly everything has changed
He took a chance on romance without knowing her name

So he moved in on a whim
And now her house is their home
She forgets the days of the drunken haze
And waiting by the phone
They lie in bed with nothing said
As she gently falls asleep
He thinks about how life would be if they didn’t meet

The doctor and the DJ took it all in stride
I hope she knows that she’ll make a beautiful bride

It’s funny how life can change at the drop of a dime
All it takes is a little faith that everything is fine
So I raise my glass to better times
I’m glad that I didn’t miss my chance to see and end to misery

The doctor and the DJ took it all in stride
I hope she knows that she’ll make a beautiful bride

I’ve gone for too long living like I’m not alive
So I’m going to start over tonight
Beginning with you and I
When this memory fades
I’m gonna make sure it’s replaced
With chances taken
Hope embraced
and have I told you?

I’m not going
cause I’ve been waiting for a miracle
And I’m not leaving
I won’t let you
Let you give up on a miracle
When it might save you

We’ve learned to run from
Anything uncomfortable
We’ve tied our pain below and no one ever has to know
That inside we’re broken
I try to patch things up again
To calm my tears and kill these fears
But have I told you, have I?

I’m not going
Cause I’ve been waiting for a miracle
And I’m not leaving
I won’t let you
Let you give up on a miracle
When it might save you

It’s not faith if, if you use your eyes
Oh why
We’ll get it right this time (this time)
Let’s leave this all behind
Oh why
We’ll get it right this time
It’s not faith if you’re using your eyes
Oh why

I’ve gone for too long living like I’m not alive
So I’m going to start over tonight
Beginning with you and

I don’t want to run from anything uncomfortable
I just want, no
I just need this pain to end right here

I’m not going
Cause I’ve been waiting for a miracle
And I’m not leaving
I won’t let you
Let you give up on a miracle
Cause it might save you

Yeah, it might save you
Oh, it might save you

It’s not faith if, if you use your eyes
If you use your eyes
If you use your eyes

I’d better rest my eyes
‘Cause I’m growing weary of
This point you’ve been trying to make
So rather than imply
Why don’t you just verbalize
All the things that you’re trying to say

Thought this would turn out so well
But I’m beginning to see
That instead it’s trouble
Into a pattern we fell
Of prolonging the inevitable

[Chorus:]
Why don’t you
Come right out and say it?
Even if the words are probably gonna hurt
I’d rather have the truth
Than something insincere
Why don’t you
Come right out and say it (come right out and say it)?
What it is you’re thinking
Though I’m thinking it’s not what I wanna hear

I better check my pride
Because I was starting to think
I was on to something good
But things started to slide
And I sit here in retrospect
And understanding that I misunderstood
Thought I could make up your mind
And then this decision locks up
So tight it couldn’t be touched
Thought you were being so kind
But keeping your mouth sealed shut
Rather than just opening it up

[Chorus]

And I tried
To guess what goes on in your head
‘Cause in your mind
I just might find
All those things you left unsaid
And I’ll try to maybe not regret anything
Later on after I’m gone
You’ll wish that you
Had listened to me (listened to me)

Why don’t you
Come right out and say it
Even if the words are gonna hurt
We’re better off this way
Why don’t you
Come right out and say come right out and say
What I know you’re thinking anyway
Why don’t you
Come right out and say it
Even if the words are probably gonna hurt
I’d rather have the truth than something insincere
Why don’t you
Come right out and say it (come right out and say it)
What it is you’re thinking
And just what it is you’re thinking

ADMIT IT! Despite your pseudo-bohemian appearance and vaguely leftist doctrine of beliefs, you know nothing ABOUT art or sex that you couldn’t read in any trendy new york underground fashion magazine…Proto-typical non-conformist. You are a vacuous soldier of the thrift store gastapo. You adhere to a set of standards and tastes that appear to be determined by an unseen panel of hipster judges-BULLSHIT-giving your thumbs up and thumbs down to incoming and outgoing trends and styles of music and art. Go analog baby, you’re so post-modern. You’re diving face forward into an antiquated past, it’s disgusting! It’s offensive! Don’t stick your nose up at me!

Yeah, what do you have to say for yourself?
Woah,Woah,Woah!
Yeah, what do you have to say for yourself?
Woah,Woah,Woah!

You spend your time sitting in circles with your friends, pontificating to each other, forever competing for that one moment of self aggrandizing glory in which you hog the intellectual spotlight, holding dominion over the entire SHALLOW….POINTLESS…conversation. Oh we’re not worthy.

When you walk by a group of quote-unquote normal people you chuckle to yourself, patting yourself on the back as you scoff. It’s the same superority complex shared by the high school jocks who made your life a living hell, makes you a slave to the competitive capitalist dogma you spend every moment of your waking life BITCHING about!

Yeah, what do you have to say for yourself?
Woah,Woah,Woah!
Yeah, what do you have to say for yourself?
Woah,Woah,Woah!

Cause I’m proud of my life and the things that I have done, proud of myself and the loner I’ve become. You’re free to whine. It will not get you far. I do just fine, my car and my guitar, proud of my life and the things that I have done, proud of myself and the loner I’ve become. You’re free to whine. It will not get you far. I do just fine, my car and my guitar.

Well let me tell you this, I am shamelessly self-involved. I spend hours in front of the mirror making my hair elegantly disheveled. I worry about how this album will sell because I believe it will determine the amount of SEX I will have in the future. I self-medicate with drugs and alcohol to help treat my extreme social anxiety problem. You are a FAKER! ADMIT IT!You are a FRAUD!ADMIT IT! You’re living a LIE! your life is living a lie! You don’t impress me! ADMIT IT! You don’t intimidate me! ADMIT IT! Why don’t you bow down, get on the ground, walk this fucking plank!

Yeah, what do you have to say for yourself?
Woah,Woah,Woah!
Yeah, what do you have to say for yourself?
Woah,Woah,Woah!

I’m proud of my life and the things that I have done, proud of myself and the loner i’ve become. You’re free to whine. It will not get you far. I do just fine, my car and my guitar,guitar go!

I drift, drift, drift, drift, drift, yeah
I drift, drift, drift, drift, drift, yeah oh

And I am done with this,
I wanna taste the breeze of every great city ,
My car and my guitar,
My car and my guitar,
So you’ll come to be, made of these urges unfulfilled,
Oh no, no, no, no, no,
When I’m dead I’ll rest,
When I’m dead I’ll rest, lay still,
When I’m dead I’ll rest, I’ll rest,
When I’m dead I’ll rest, I’ll rest,
When I’m dead I’ll rest, I’ll rest,
When I’m dead I’ll rest, I’ll rest,

This song describes my life so well. I can’t hear it without tearing up b/c it makes me think about growing up and the thing sI have to leave behind after a chapter is over.

Of all the things I’ve believed in
I just want to get it over with
Tears form behind my eyes
But I do not cry
Counting the days that pass me by

I’ve been searching deep down in my soul
Words that I’m hearing are starting to get old
It feels like I’m starting all over again
The last three years were just pretend
And I said,

[Chorus:]
Goodbye to you
Goodbye to everything I thought I knew
You were the one I loved
The one thing that I tried to hold on to
The one thing that I tried to hold on to

I still get lost in your eyes
And it seems that I can’t live a day without you
Closing my eyes and you chase my thoughts away
To a place where I am blinded by the light
But it’s not right

[Chorus]

And it hurts to want everything and nothing at the same time
I want what’s yours and I want what’s mine
I want you
But I’m not giving in this time

[Chorus x2]

And when the stars fall
I will lie awake
You’re my shooting star

I chose this song b/c in the end that relationship didn’t work. If he really loved her he would have moved with her. My boyfriend left everything behind for me and he really loves me. This song is NOT a cliche love song to me; no, it reminds me of what my real love life is like.

Hey there Delilah
What’s it like in New York City?
I’m a thousand miles away
But girl tonight you look so pretty
Yes you do
Times Square can’t shine as bright as you
I swear it’s true

Hey there Delilah
Don’t you worry about the distance
I’m right there if you get lonely
Give this song another listen
Close your eyes
Listen to my voice it’s my disguise
I’m by your side

Oh it’s what you do to me
Oh it’s what you do to me
Oh it’s what you do to me
Oh it’s what you do to me
What you do to me

Hey there Delilah
I know times are getting hard
But just believe me girl
Someday I’ll pay the bills with this guitar
We’ll have it good
We’ll have the life we knew we would
My word is good

Hey there Delilah
I’ve got so much left to say
If every simple song I wrote to you
Would take your breath away
I’d write it all
Even more in love with me you’d fall
We’d have it all

Oh it’s what you do to me
Oh it’s what you do to me
Oh it’s what you do to me
Oh it’s what you do to me

A thousand miles seems pretty far
But they’ve got planes and trains and cars
I’d walk to you if I had no other way
Our friends would all make fun of us
and we’ll just laugh along because we know
That none of them have felt this way
Delilah I can promise you
That by the time we get through
The world will never ever be the same
And you’re to blame

Hey there Delilah
You be good and don’t you miss me
Two more years and you’ll be done with school
And I’ll be making history like I do
You’ll know it’s all because of you
We can do whatever we want to
Hey there Delilah here’s to you
This ones for you

Oh it’s what you do to me
Oh it’s what you do to me
Oh it’s what you do to me
Oh it’s what you do to me
What you do to me.

This song is pretty to the point. It describes my past years of self abuse.

They’ve clipped my wings again
Tore them apart and then
Left me
No use to fly away to
My yesterday
Of freedom
My eyes died back that day
Seeing the hurt I may have done
Beat me instead of them
Pain is my only zen
Of fun

I’ll go where secrets are sold
Where roses unfold
I’ll sleep as time goes by

So hurting here is where I belong dreaming a song
Blood on my hands to stay strong
The flowers in the graveyard are all gone I don’t belong
There is no right to heal the wrong
Soup’s on hot feelin’ like a do or die
I can’t throw up don’t think i even want to try

You still can’t make me cry
You’ve pinned this butterfly
Down
My fire’s burning out
Kill my flame without
A frown
And starving hurts the soul
When you’re hungry for
Some love
So if I close my eyes
I can really fly
Above

I’ll go where secrets are sold
Where roses unfold
I’ll sleep as time goes by

So hurting here is where I belong dreaming a song
Blood on my hands to stay strong
The flowers in the graveyard are all gone I don’t belong
There is no right to heal the wrong
Soup’s on hot feelin’ like a do or die
I can’t throw up don’t think I even want to
Tryyy- tryyyy- tryyyyyy

This is ‘our song’. You know the weird thing that young couples do when they’re in a new relationship and it helps make them feel closer. Well, this is the song we chose for a number of reasons, and it really suits us.

If I don’t say this now I will surely break
As I’m leaving the one I want to take
Forgive the urgency but hurry up and wait
My heart has started to separate

Oh, oh, oh
Be my baby
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
I’ll look after you

There now, steady love, so few come and don’t go
Will you won’t you, be the one I always know
When I’m losing my control, the city spins around
You’re the only one who knows, you slow it down

Oh, oh, oh
Be my baby
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
I’ll look after you

If ever there was a doubt
My love she leans into me
This most assuredly counts
She says most assuredly

Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Be my baby
I’ll look after you

It’s always have and never hold
You’ve begun to feel like home
What’s mine is yours to leave or take
What’s mine is yours to make your own

Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Be my baby
Oh, oh, oh

This is a bit of a trigger song for me. It describes my lowest moments so well.

Help, I have done it again
I have been here many times before
Hurt myself again today
And, the worst part is there’s no-one else to blame

Be my friend
Hold me, wrap me up
Unfold me
I am small
I’m needy
Warm me up
And breathe me

Ouch I have lost myself again
Lost myself and I am nowhere to be found,
Yeah I think that I might break
I’ve lost myself again and I feel unsafe

Be my friend
Hold me, wrap me up
Unfold me
I am small
I’m needy
Warm me up
And breathe me

Be my friend
Hold me, wrap me up
Unfold me
I am small
I’m needy
Warm me up
And breathe me
