Where I finally find your will
Lord, then thats where I long to be
In the desert without a drink
On some ole ship about to sink
Lord, I’ll go if you just speak to me.
Speak the word, Lord
My ears long to hear you
Speak the word, Lord
My heart aches to know
Speak the word, Lord
And I’ll be what
You’d have me to be
Speak the word, Lord
And your servant will go
There’s been times that I’ve complained
When life rubbed against the grain
And I recall those times
You took me to my knees
But there’s one thing I couldn’t do
So I still owe this thanks to you
Cause it was you, Lord
Who took my cross to Calvary.
Kenny Hinson
Everytime I feel a little down, I think of this song. Will lift my spirit everytime. Thanks for letting me share it *hugs*

oh, all time fav and always will be...Eric Clapton "TEARS In Heaven"
Here’s an intro...all should know this song...
"Would you know my name
If I saw you in Heaven.
Would it be the same,
If I saw you in Heaven."
You catch it, right...
Nice, now I’ll have that song in my head when I go sleepy---not that I’m complaining.

Tough, you think you’ve got the stuff
You’re telling me and anyone
You’re hard enough
You don’t have to put up a fight
You don’t have to always be right
Let me take some of the punches
For you tonight
Listen to me now
I need to let you know
You don’t have to go it alone
And it’s you when I look in the mirror
And it’s you when I don’t pick up the phone
Sometimes you can’t make it on your own
We fight all the time
You and I...that’s alright
We’re the same soul
I don’t need...I don’t need to hear you say
That if we weren’t so alike
You’d like me a whole lot more
Listen to me now
I need to let you know
You don’t have to go it alone
And it’s you when I look in the mirror
And it’s you when I don’t pick up the phone
Sometimes you can’t make it on your own
I know that we don’t talk
I’m sick of it all
Can - you - hear - me - when - I-
Sing, you’re the reason I sing
You’re the reason why the opera is in me...
Where are we now?
I’ve got to let you know
A house still doesn’t make a home
Don’t leave me here alone...
And it’s you when I look in the mirror
And it’s you that makes it hard to let go
Sometimes you can’t make it on your own
Sometimes you can’t make it
The best you can do is to fake it
Sometimes you can’t make it on your own |

Among the crumpled tissues white like daisies fell like soldiers dead determined
I surrender
Cd cases broken in a desperate chance to find the perfect ballad
To move you
Fight with little purpose
Only meaning to scratch the surface
It’s not pretty underneath
There among debris find casual in casualty
It’s not pretty underneath
A bottle meant for two a glass that’s full of legs but free of any fingerprints
From you
A neighbor one time pounding on the wall now lulled to sleep by lowered voices
Is waking
Fight with little purpose
Only meaning to scratch the surface
It’s not pretty underneath
There among debris find casual in casualty
It’s not pretty underneath |
| User | jaycee | 2005-04-25 | | | Subject | untitled | | Message | I have a miliion and one faves, but here’s just one
Train’s "When I Look to the Sky"
When it rains it pours and opens doors
And floods the floors we thought would always keep us safe and dry
And in the midst of sailing ships we sink our lips into the ones we love
That have to say goodbye
And as I float along this ocean I can feel you like a notion that won’t seem to let me go
Cause when I look to the sky something tells me you’re here with me
And you make everything alright
And when I feel like I’m lost something tells me you’re here with me
And I can always find my way when you are here
And every word I didn’t say that caught up in some busy day
And every dance on the kitchen floor we didn’t dance before
And every sunset that we’ll miss I’ll wrap them all up in a kiss ’
And pick you up in all of this when I sail away
Whether I am up or down or in or out or just plane overhead
Instead it just feels like it is impossible to fly
But with you I can spread my wings to see me over everything that life may send me
When I am hoping it won’t pass me by
And when I feel like there is no one that will ever know me there you are to show me

| User | I_Bleed_Ink | 2005-04-23 | | | Subject | untitled | | Message | Mmm...just some snippets of ones I’ve been listening to recently--
The sun ain’t nearly on the rise
And we still got the moon and stars above.
Underneath the velvet skies,
Love is all that matters. Won’t you stay with me?
And don’t you ever leave.
Lay down, Sally, and rest you in my arms.
Don’t you think you want someone to talk to?
Lay down, Sally, no need to leave so soon.
I’ve been trying all night long just to talk to you.
-Eric Clapton
The memories of our lovin’
still linger in the air
like the faded scent of your roses
they stay with me everywhere
-Tiffany
When I first saw you I already knew
There was something inside of you
Something I thought that I would never find
Angel of mine
I look at you, lookin’ at me
Now I know why they say the best things are free
I’m gonna love you boy you are so fine
Angel of Mine
-Monica
Late at night when all the world is sleeping
I stay up and think of you
And I still can’t believe
That you came up to me and said "I love you"
I love you too!

Butterflies all havin’ fun you know what I mean
Sleepin’ peace when the day is done that’s what I mean

I ain’t lookin’ to compete with you,
Beat or cheat or mistreat you,

Deny, defy or crucify you.
All I really want to do
Is, baby, be friends with you.
No, and I ain’t lookin’ to fight with you,
Frighten you or uptighten you,
Drag you down or drain you down,
Chain you down or bring you down.
All I really want to do
Is, baby, be friends with you.
I ain’t lookin’ to block you up
Shock or knock or lock you up,
Analyze you, categorize you,
Finalize you or advertise you.

I don’t want to straight-face you,
Race or chase you, track or trace you,
Or disgrace you or displace you,
Or define you or confine you.
All I really want to do

I don’t want to meet your kin,
Make you spin or do you in,
Or select you or dissect you,
Or inspect you or reject you.
All I really want to do

I don’t want to fake you out,
Take or shake or forsake you out,
I ain’t lookin’ for you to feel like me,
See like me or be like me.
All I really want to do

| User | marysunshine | 2005-04-05 | | | Subject | The Beast in Me | | Message | The beast in me
Is caged by frail and fragile bars
Restless by day
And by night rants and rages at the stars
God help the beast in me
The beast in me
Has had to learn to live with pain
And how to shelter from the rain
And in the twinkling of an eye
Might have to be restrained
God help the beast in me
Sometimes it tries to kid me
That it’s just a teddy bear
And even somehow manage to vanish in the air
And that is when I must beware
Of the beast in me that everybody knows
They’ve seen him out dressed in my clothes
Patently unclear It it’s New York or New Year
God help the beast in me

| User | Solomon Disease | 2005-03-16 | | | Subject | untitled | | Message | Read these lyrics. Let them blow your mind. Feel them. Tell me how you felt -- if you want to.
Working Class Hero -- John Lennon
As soon as you’re born they make you feel small
By giving you no time instead of it all
Till the pain is so big you feel nothing at all
They hurt you at home and they hit you at school
They hate you if you’re clever and despise a fool
Till you’re so fucking crazy you can’t follow their rules
Keep you doped with religion, sex and tv
You think you’re all so clever and classless and free
But you’re all fucking peasents as far as I can see
After they scare and torture you for twenty odd years
Then they expect you to pick a career
But you can’t really function cause you’re so full of fear
There’s room at the top they are telling you still
But first you must learn to smile as you kill
If you wanna be like the folks on the hill
A working class hero is something to be
A working class hero is something to be
If you wanna be a hero then just follow me. |
| User | Lightbringer | 2005-03-16 | | | Subject | Chris Ledoux | | Message | This is a little tribute to one of country music’s most recent losses. Chris Ledoux died last week at the age of 56. He has always been one of my favorite artists. I guess when Garth Brooks sites you as one of his inspirations you must be pretty good. The sad thing is that very few people noticed. I haven’t heard anything by him on the radio since he passed on. Oh well I’m sure he’s looking down from heaven wishing that they had a rodeo arena up there. So here’s a song by the man who inspired me to write down the songs that are constantly running through my head. It’s entitled
“This Cowboy’s Hat”
(spoken)
Well I was sittin’ in a coffee shop
Just having a cup to pass the time
Swappin’ rodeo stories
With this old cowboy friend of mine
When some motorcycle riders
Started snickering in the back
They started poking fun
At my friends hat.
One old boy said "Hey Tex,
Where’d you park your horse?"
My friend just pulled his hat down low
But they couldn’t be ignored
A husky feller said "I think we’ll
Rip that hat right off your head."
That’s when my friend turned around
And this is what he said
(sung)
"You’ll ride a black tornado
’cross the western sky,
Rope an old blue norther’
And milk it till it’s dry.
Bulldog the Mississippi
Pin its ears down flat
Long before you take
This cowboy’s hat"
(Spoken)
He said "now mister
This hat is better left alone,
You see it used to be my daddy’s
But last year he passed on
My nephew skinned the rattled
That makes up this old hat band
But back in ’69
He died in Vietnam.
Now the eagle feather was given to me
By an Indian friend of mine
But someone ran him down
Around that Arizona line
And a real special lady
Gave me this hat pin
But I don’t know
If I’ll ever see her again.
Now if your leather jacket means to you
What this hat means to me
Then I guess we understand each other
And we’ll just let it be
So if you still think it’s funny
You’ve got my back against the wall
But if you touch my hat
You’re gonna have to fight us all.
(Sung)
You’ll ride a black tornado
’cross the western sky,
Rope an old blue norther’
And milk it till it’s dry.
Bulldog the Mississippi
Pin its ears down flat
Long before you take
This cowboy’s hat
(Spoken)
Just then I thought I saw
A tear in that husky feller’s eye
And he turned back to the others
And they all just kinda shuffled on outside
But when my friend turned back to me
I noticed his old hat brim
Well it was turned up
In a big ol’ Texas grin
(Sung)
You’ll ride a black tornado
’cross the western sky,
Rope an old blue norther’
And milk it till it’s dry.
Bulldog the Mississippi
Pin its ears down flat
Long before you take
This cowboy’s hat

out of reach

no matter where we go
I’ll never stop believing
in me.
We’ve been waiting
for too long
we’ve been giving

We’ve been broken in peices
one by one...
We’re gonna know

| User | smalltown | 2005-02-18 | | | Subject | untitled | | Message | alright let me put my two cents in. I love this song...
Gotta get away
yea I can’t wait another day
ain’t nothing gonna change
if we stay round here
gotta do what it takes
it’s all in our hands
we all make mistakes
but it’s never to late to start again
take another breath
and say another prayer and
(Chorus)
fly away from here
anywhere, honey I don’t care
we’ll just fly away from here
my hopes and dreams are
out there somewhere.
Won’t let time pass us by
we’ll just fly.
That is just a few lines of this wonderfully free song. I just had to give a sample. It is by Aerosmith.

and said “say a prayer for me”
she threw her arms around him
and whispered “God will keep us free.”
they could hear the riders coming
he said “this is my last fight
if they take me back to Texas
they won’t take me back alive.”
and there were seven Spanish angels
at the alter of the sun
they were praying for the lovers
in the valley of the gun
when the battle stopped
and the smoke cleared
there was thunder from the throne
and seven Spanish angels took another angel home.

I know you won’t believe these things I tell you
I know you won’t believe
your heart has been forewarned all men will lie to you
and your mind cannot conceive
now all depends on what I say to you
and on your doubting me
so I’ve prepared these statements far from true
to fuel your disbelief
The sun is filled with ice and gives no warmth at all
the sky was never blue
the stars are raindrops searching for a place to fall
and I never cared for you
Willie Nelson
