Favorite Lyrics


Not a whole song just certain powerful lyrics that you like or mean something to you.

Sometimes the song my just ok but certain lyrics say something to you.

This lyric for me shows what the love of a family can do.

"Always remember there was nothing worth sharing
Like the love that let us share our name "


What are some of your favorite lyrics?

There were moments of dreams
I was offered to save.
I lived less like a workhorse,
more like a slave.
I thought that one quick moment
that was noble or brave
would be worth the most of my life.

So I pointed my fingers
and shouted few quotes I knew,
as if something that's written
should be taken as true.
But every path I had taken
and conclusion I drew
would put truth back under the knife.

And now the only piece of advice that continues to help
is anyone that's making anything new only breaks something else

I wanna be better than oxygen
So you can breathe when you're drowning and weak in the knees
I wanna speak louder than Ritalin
For all the children who think that they've got a disease

I wanna be cooler than TV
For all the kids that are wondering what they're going to be
We can be stronger than bombs
If you're singing along and you know that you really believe
We can be richer than industry

As long as we know that there's things that we don't really need
We can speak louder than ignorance
Cause we speak in silence every time our eyes meet

THE NEARNESS OF YOU

It’s not the pale moon that excites me,
That thrills and delights me.
Oh no, it’s just the nearness of you.

It isn’t your sweet conversation
that brings this sensation to view.
It’s just the nearness of you.

When you’re in my arms,
And I feel you so close to me,
All my wildest dreams come true.

I need no soft lights to enchant me,
If you’ll only grant me the right
To hold you ever so tight,
And to feel in the night,
The nearness of you.

- Hoagy Charmichael

I Love You
A bushel and a peck
A bushel and a peck and a hug around the neck
A hug around the neck and a barrel in a peep
A barrel in a peep and I'm talking in my sleep about
You !

Old man look at my life,
I'm a lot like you were.
Old man look at my life,
I'm a lot like you were.

Old man look at my life,
Twenty four
and there's so much more
Live alone in a paradise
That makes me think of two.

Love lost, such a cost,
Give me things
that don't get lost.
Like a coin that won't get tossed
Rolling home to you.

Old man take a look at my life
I'm a lot like you
I need someone to love me
the whole day through
Ah, one look in my eyes
and you can tell that's true.

Lullabies, look in your eyes,
Run around the same old town.
Doesn't mean that much to me
To mean that much to you.

I've been first and last
Look at how the time goes past.
But I'm all alone at last.
Rolling home to you.

Old man take a look at my life
I'm a lot like you
I need someone to love me
the whole day through
Ah, one look in my eyes
and you can tell that's true.

Old man look at my life,
I'm a lot like you were.
Old man look at my life,
I'm a lot like you were.

"The Summer Knows" music by Michel Jean Legrand, lyrics by Marilyn & Alan Bergman from Summer Of 42' (1971)

The summer smiles, the summer knows
And unashamed, she sheds her clothes
The summer smooths the restless sky
And lovingly she warms the sand on which you lie
The summer knows, the summer's wise
She sees the doubts within your eyes
And so she takes her summer time
Tells the moon to wait and the sun to linger
Twists the world 'round her summer finger
Lets you see the wonder of her arm?
And if you've learned your lesson well
There's little more for her to tell
One last caress, it's time to dress for fall
The summer knows, the summer's wise
She sees the doubts within your eyes
And so she takes her summer time
Tells the moon to wait and the sun to linger
Twists the world 'round her summer finger
Lets you see the wonder of her arms?
And if you've learned your lesson well
There's little more for her to tell
One last caress, it's time to dress for fall

s ome Great lyics , indeed, mr. dewey.

i was reminded of the power of this love recently. Mybrother ther kept wa t c h over me for several days andke pt speakingto an unconscious Mod5 me as attempt after attempt*

to get me breathing without mechanical Ventilation failed ....

until it succeeded and my meeting with the GreatModerator ewaspushedback indefinitely.😇


all of that and i forgot the "lyrics part!"

One more day that I've survived
Another night alone
Pay no mind, I'm doing fine
I'm breathing on my own
I'm here
And I'm on the mend
I'm here
And I'm on the mend my friend
Wake me when the hour arrives
Wake me with my name
See you somewhere down the line
We're tethered once again
I'm here
And I'm on the mend
I'm here
And I'm on the mend my friend
I'm here
And I'm on the mend
I'm here
And I'm on the mend my friend
Was it you?
Sat alone
Here we go
Close your eyes and stay a while
To take me where you go
Single file we walk the mile
Who's wandering back home
I'm here
And I'm on the mend
I'm here
And I'm on the mend my friend
I'm here
And I'm on the mend
I'm here
And I'm on the mend my friend
Was it you?
Sat alone
Here we go
Here we go
Here we go
Here we go

* At some point, the attempts stop. Theykept atitbecause my EEG scans demonstratedsignificant brainactivity( You might say Iwasstillathomehome,evenifI wasn't answeringthebell andopeningthefront door at that moment)



All of that activity were dreams of my family. Thoughts of them literally kept me alive



m y recovery has seen good days and bad dayss
But the support of my family and friends have been amazing throoughout

Reminding myself that not everyone has that keeps me going, even on the worst days..
