List song lyrics that I like

Now, the party’s over
It’s you and I, just you and I
Now, the guests have gone
It’s one on one, one on one

Which way now, will the eagle fly?
Tell me how, will the
starts shine in the sky

Love now till eternity
Shooting for the moon
To put your hand in mine and say
I vow to stay with you

Love now till eternity
Shooting for the moon
To put your hand in mine and say
I vow to stay with you

You, you are my life
And so I give, all that I can
All, all that is left
That you are woman, I am man

Which way now, will the eagle fly?
Tell me how, will the
starts shine in the sky

Love now till eternity
Shooting for the moon
To put your hand in mine and say
I vow to stay with you

(Oh, the music video was cool…)

Must be getting early
Clocks are running late
Paint by number morning sky
Looks so phony

Dawn is breaking everywhere
Light a candle, curse the glare
Draw the curtains
I don’t care ‘cause
It’s all right

I will get by / I will get by
I will get by / I will survive

I see you’ve got your list out
Say your piece and get out
Yes I get the gist of it
but it’s all right

Sorry that you feel that way
The only thing there is to say
Every silver lining’s got a
Touch of grey

I will get by / I will get by
I will get by / I will survive

It’s a lesson to me
The Ables and the Bakers and the C’s
The ABC’s we all must face
And try to keep a little grace

It’s a lesson to me
The deltas and the east and the freeze
The ABC’s we all think of
Try to give a little love.

I know the rent is in arrears
The dog has not been fed in years
It’s even worse than it appears
but it’s all right.

Cows giving kerosene
Kid can’t read at seventeen
The words he knows are all obscene
but it’s all right

I will get by / I will get by
I will get by / I will survive

The shoe is on the hand it fits
There’s really nothing much to it
Whistle through your teeth and spit
causeit’s all right.

Oh well a Touch Of Grey
Kind of suits you anyway.
That was all I had to say
It’s all right.

I will get by / I will get by
I will get by / I will survive
We will get by / We will get by
We will get by / We will survive

A perfect day, or so I say
From where I’m standing
This rollercoaster ride, fate will decide
The ending

Love everlasting, or lost on the way
The smiles and the frowns, the ups and downs
Of fortune turning
The twists and turns, the lessons learned
The bridges burning

Nights to remember and never forget

Go, seize the day
Wake up and say
This is an
EXTRAORDINARY LIFE
Enjoy today
Come what may
This is an
EXTRAORDINARY LIFE

I gave it all, my cards have fallen
But I’m still alive
And in the end, believe my friend
I will survive

Glory and heartache, and some of the joy

Go, seize the day
Wake up and say
This is an
EXTRAORDINARY LIFE
Enjoy today
Come what may
This is an
EXTRAORDINARY LIFE

All of the good times, and all of the bad
Responsibility is totally
Mine I know
I rightly stand accused
But I believe that I can change
Yes I can change my world
Go, seize the day
Wake up and say
This is an
EXTRAORDINARY LIFE
Enjoy today
Come what may
This is an
EXTRAORDINARY LIFE

The sun was shining
The sky was crying
It just tore apart
And down came the rain

And I was soaking
Yeah I was freezing
But I was feeling
No kind of pain

Come a fireball
I held it in my hand
You see before you
A man who’s known greatness

I had a vision
A revelation
I took a look inside of me
And I am a sensation

Days like these I feel like I can change the world [repeat]

It’s either easy
Or it’s impossible
And if you ain’t got it
You ain’t never gonna get it

But once you find it
You gotta grab it
Reach down your own throat
And yank it to the surface

That may be brutal
May be gory
But whatever else it is
It’s my story

And I believe it
Yeah, I can see it
I sing it out, shout it out
Gimme death or glory

[Chorus]

Days like these, days like these
I think I’ll move a mountain or two
Days like these, days like these
Anything you want you know I’ll get it for you

The sun was shining
I was crying
I saw a thousand people
Singing in the rain

And I was thinking
About the Indians
And how they say true wisdom
Only comes from pain

Come a rumbling
Humbling feeling
Like things will never
Ever be the same

But what doesn’t kill you
Only makes you stronger
Today I’m strong enough
And anyway, I love the rain

[Chorus]

Lyrics by Phil Collins – This song was actually meant to be on his first album Face Value, but he donated it to Duke along with “Misunderstanding”

Ooh please don’t ask me how I feel, I feel fine
Oh I cry a bit, I don’t sleep too good, but I’m fine
When can I see you?
When can I touch you?

Again and again I ask myself was I wrong?
Oh but time’s a healer, and heaven knows I’ve been strong
Maybe we could try
Maybe we would work this time

Oh I can remember when it was easy to say I love you
But things have changed since then, now I really can’t say if I still do
But I can try
Cos I know the kids are well, yes you’re a mother to the world
Oh but I miss my boy
I hope he’s good as gold

But enough of me, tell me how are you? You look good
Oh you’ve lost some weight I can see, your hair looks nice, you look good
Maybe we should try, don’t say it! I know why

But y’know, I can remember when it was easy to say I love you
But things have changed since then, now I really can’t say if I still do
But I can try
Cos I know the kids are well, yes you’re a mother to the world
But I miss my boy
Oh I hope he’s good as gold

You better you better you bet.

I call you on the telephone my voice too rough with cigarettes.
I sometimes think I should just go home but I’m dealing with a memory that never forgets
I love to hear you say my name especially when you say yes
I got your body right now on my mind and I drunk myself blind to the sound of old T-Rex
To the sound of old T-Rex – who’s next?

When I say I love you you say you better
(You better you better you bet)
When I say I need you you say you better
(You better you better you bet)
You better bet your life
Or love will cut you like a knife

I want those feeble minded axes overthrown
I’m not into your passport picture I just like your nose
You welcome me with open arms and open legs
I know only fools have needs but this one never begs

I don’t really mind how much you love me
A little is really alright
When you say come over and spend the night
Tonight

When I say I love you you say you better
(You better you better you bet)
When I say I need you you say you better
(You better you better you bet)
You better bet your life
Or love will cut you like a knife

I lay on the bed with you
We could make some book of records
Your dog keeps licking my nose
And chewing up all those letters
Saying “you better”
You better bet your life

You better love me, all the time now
You better shove me back into line now
You better love me, all the time now
You better shove me back into line now.

I showed up late one night with a neon light for a visa
But knowing I’m so eager to fight can’t make letting me in any easier
I know tha~t I been wearing crazy clothes and I look pretty crappy sometime
But my body feels so good and I still sing a razor line everytime.

And when it comes to all night living
I know what I’m giving
I’ve got it all down to a tee
And it’s free.

When I say I love you you say you better
(You better you better you bet)
When I say I need you you say you better
(You better you better you bet)

When I say I love you you say you better
(You better you better you bet)
When I say I need you you scream you better
(You better you better you bet)

When I say I love you you say you better
(You better you better you bet)
When I say I need you you say you better
(You better you better you bet)

When I say I love you you say you better
(You better you better you bet)
When I say I need you you scream you better
(You better you better you bet)

You better bet your life
Or love will cut you like a knife

Heh, I heard this song in the movie The Departed and on the radio a few times and fell in love with it. It’s so dark and brooding and mobster-ish. Sends chills down my spine everytime I hear it.

Oh, a storm is threat’ning
My very life today.
If I don’t get some shelter
Oh yeah, I’m gonna fade away.

War, children, it’s just a shot away
It’s just a shot away.
War, children, it’s just a shot away
It’s just a shot away.

Ooh, see the fire sweepin’
Our very street today.
Burns like a red coal carpet
Mad bull lost its way.

War, children, it’s just a shot away
It’s just a shot away.
War, children, it’s just a shot away
It’s just a shot away.

The floods is threat’ning
My very life today.
Gimme, gimme shelter
Or I’m gonna fade away.

War, children, it’s just a shot away
It’s just a shot away
It’s just a shot away
It’s just a shot away
It’s just a shot away
I tell you love, sister, it’s just a kiss away
It’s just a kiss away
It’s just a kiss away
It’s just a kiss away
It’s just a kiss away
Kiss away, kiss away

Dig for victory, go for gold
I don’t wanna die before I get old
And I wonder where I’m going to
There’s some way out, there’s some way through
But I’m lost, I’m lost, I’m down again
My direction is changing, which way,
Which way can I go…

Get up and go

You start me up, you slow me down
No one can deny you get around
When you’re hot, you’re cold, you’re in between
Asking myself what does it mean?
And I walk that tightrope, you should know
I’m losing my balance, maybe,
Maybe I should go…

Get up and go

Face to face in sympathy
But now you turn your back on me
Turn a card and win, but you may lose
Fate only has that right to choose
If you’re right, leave me here, I’ll die alone
You’ve got the time, you’ve just got time
You got the time just go…

Get up and go
Go

Just go…

The Video for this song has a hot woman who dresses up as the person on the album cover and delievers a glowstick to the singer, John Wetton. WTF? The shower part is also nice too ;)

You walk tall, got your heads in the clouds
You talk soft, but you’re thinking aloud
And you know, exactly what you want

You box shy, you’re hard to get
You got the face that I can’t forget
And I know, I know the heat goes on

I know that THE HEAT GOES ON
I know that THE HEAT GOES ON

You play tight, you’re nobody’s fool
Not cold, but I know that you’re cool
Look at you, I know the heat goes on

Now tell me, with your hand on your heart
That you knew, you were right from the start
And you know, you knew it all along

You know that THE HEAT GOES ON
You know that THE HEAT GOES ON

T minus fifteen seconds, guidance is okay)

When I look back upon my life
It’s always with a sense of shame
I’ve always been the one to blame
For everything I long to do
No matter when or where or who
Has one thing in common, too

It’s a, it’s a, it’s a, it’s a sin
It’s a sin
Everything I’ve ever done
Everything I ever do
Every place I’ve ever been
Everywhere I’m going to
It’s a sin

At school they taught me how to be
So pure in thought and word and deed
They didn’t quite succeed
For everything I long to do
No matter when or where or who
Has one thing in common, too

It’s a, it’s a, it’s a, it’s a sin
It’s a sin
Everything I’ve ever done
Everything I ever do
Every place I’ve ever been
Everywhere I’m going to
It’s a sin

Father, forgive me, I tried not to do it
Turned over a new leaf, then tore right through it
Whatever you taught me, I didn’t believe it
Father, you fought me, ‘cause I didn’t care
And I still don’t understand

So I look back upon my life
Forever with a sense of shame
I’ve always been the one to blame
For everything I long to do
No matter when or where or who
Has one thing in common, too

It’s a, it’s a, it’s a, it’s a sin
It’s a sin
Everything I’ve ever done
Everything I ever do
Every place I’ve ever been
Everywhere I’m going to – it’s a sin
It’s a, it’s a, it’s a, it’s a sin
It’s a, it’s a, it’s a, it’s a sin

(Confiteor Deo omnipotenti vobis fratres, quia peccavi nimis cogitatione,
verbo, opere et omissione, mea culpa, mea culpa, mea maxima culpa)
[trans. “I confess to almighty god,
and to you my brothers,
that I have sinned exceedingly
in thought, word, act and omission,
through my fault, through my fault,
through my most grievous fault”]
