Favorite Lyrics Part 5

Ok, I know it's soon after my Mat Kearney review, but, I have to share these. I stumbled across this song on my zen while looking for another Savage Garden song. Great, great song...even better lyrics.


Affirmation
by Savage Garden

I believe the sun should never set upon an argument
I believe we place our happiness in other people's hands
I believe that junk food tastes so good because it's bad for you
I believe your parents did the best job they knew how to do
I believe that beauty magazines promote low self esteem
I believe I'm loved when I'm completely by myself alone

I believe in Karma what you give is what you get returned
I believe you can't appreciate real love until you've been burned
I believe the grass is no more greener on the other side
I believe you don't know what you've got until you say goodbye

I believe you can't control or choose your sexuality
I believe that trust is more important than monogamy
I believe your most attractive features are your heart and soul
I believe that family is worth more than money or gold
I believe the struggle for financial freedom is unfair
I believe the only ones who disagree are millionaires

I believe in Karma what you give is what you get returned
I believe you can't appreciate real love until you've been burned
I believe the grass is no more greener on the other side
I believe you don't know what you've got until you say goodbye

I believe forgiveness is the key to your unhappiness
I believe that wedded bliss negates the need to be undressed
I believe that God does not endorse TV evangelists
I believe in love surviving death into eternity

I believe in Karma what you give is what you get returned
I believe you can't appreciate real love until you've been burned
I believe the grass is no more greener on the other side
I believe you don't know what you've got until you say goodbye

I think this is my new theme song. It's THAT good!

Peace out!

Whole Lotta Great Lyrics

So I've been posting my favorite lyrics here every so often. This one is a whole CD of them.

Some of the songs have a bit of a rap feel to them, but they are still awesome. You might know him from a song he did called "Nothing Left to Lose". He might have another on the radio now. Anyway, they are all excellent.

Mat Kearney. Fo shizzle.

Peace out!

Favorite Lyrics Part 4

Seen and Heard
By Scooter Scudieri

As my heart lay in broken pieces
I must fix this puzzle called my life
And as I wander through this land of misfits
I will trust myself to do what's right
Once I took the time to count the number
Of friends and family who left my side
I've no delusions of how I got here
Alone and angry with my thoughts tonight
If I look to you will you look to me?
Commit to endless possibility?
Two fisted clash is not a choice
I'll raise my head and let you hear my voice
I want to be seen
I want to be heard
I want you dangling on my every word
I want to be loud
I want to be clear
I want the world to know that I was here
As my mind tries to connect the pieces
Jagged edges cut me deep inside
I let my music wash away the misery
It gives me strength
It helps me to survive
Some of us would like to believe
That our lives stood for something
Resist temptation to destroy
Step from the shadows
Let me hear your voice
I want to be seen
I want to be heard
I want you dangling on my every word
I want to be loud
I want to be clear
I want the world to know that I was here
I want to be loved
I want to believe
That someone in my life is listening

Favorite Lyrics Part 3

See? I keep my word...this one is by When in Rome. My fave lines in italics again.

If you need a friend,
don't look to a stranger,
You know in the end,
I'll always be there.

And when you're in doubt,
and when you're in danger,
Take a look all around,
and I'll be there.

I'm sorry, but I'm just thinking of the right words to say. (I promise)
I know they don't sound the way I planned them to be. (I promise)
But if you'll wait around a while, I'll make you fall for me,
I promise, I promise you I will.

When your day is through,
and so is your temper,
You know what to do,
I'm gonna always be there.

Sometimes if I shout,
it's not what's intended.
These words just come out,
with no gripe to bear.

I'm sorry, but I'm just thinking of the right words to say. (I promise)
I know they don't sound the way I planned them to be. (I promise)
But if you'll wait around a while, I'll make you fall for me,
I promise, I promise you...

I'm sorry, but I'm just thinking of the right words to say. (I promise)
I know they don't sound the way I planned them to be. (I promise)
And if I had to walk the world, I'd make you fall for me,
I promise, I promise you I will.

I gotta tell ya, I need to tell ya, I gotta tell ya, I gotta tell yaaaa ...

I'm sorry, but I'm just thinking of the right words to say. (I promise)
I know they don't sound the way I planned them to be. (I promise)
But if you'll wait around a while, I'll make you fall for me,
I promise, I promise you...

I'm sorry, but I'm just thinking of the right words to say. (I promise)
I know they don't sound the way I planned them to be. (I promise)
And if I had to walk the world, I'd make you fall for me,
I promise, I promise you I will ...
I will...
I will...
I will

Peace out!

Favorite Lyrics...Part 1

I have decided to share my favorite lyrics with blogland. Whether you wanted to know, or not. :)

This one is from Cleveland by Jewel (there will probably be a few from her)

Went walking underneath the shadows
Where dark and suede secrets lay
When night's knife falls gently down
Hearts helplessly fall to the ground
Underneath a velvet sky
Only words can lie

I wanna tell you everything
I wanna make your toes curl
You'll be my only boy
And I'll be your only girl
There's not much I can say
You're in Cleveland today
You're in Cleveland today

Stewardesses like Cosmo magazine
Vogue makes me nervous, I feel so plain
I could face the world fearlessly
If you would face it here with me
With just our four hands and four eyes
Traffic cops will compromise

Daffodils and roulette wheels and rusty automobiles
Somewhere our things share the same windowsill
Somewhere our hearts exist independent of time
Somewhere we are whole
One body, one body and one mind

From the air things look so ridiculous
Our fears so small, our fights so vain
I want to pilot a plane with you
So all our problems look small too
It's just an inch from me to you
Depending on what map you use
