This song does it for me:

Butterfly by Crazy Town

Come my lady come come my lady
You're my butterfly sugar baby
Come my lady come come my lady
You're my butterfly sugar baby

Such a sexy,sexy pretty little thing
Fierce nipple pierce you got me sprung with your tongue ring
And I ain't gonna lie cause your lovin' gets me high
So to keep you by my side there's nothing that I won't try
Butterflies in her eyes and looks that kill
Time is passing I'm asking could this be real
'Cause I can't sleep I can't hold still
The only thing I really know is she got sex appeal
I can feel...... too much is never enough
You're always there to lift me up when these times get rough
I was lost now I'm found ever since you've been around
You're the women that I want so yo I'm putting it down

Come my lady come come my lady
You're my butterfly sugar baby
Come my lady you're my pretty baby
I'll make your legs shake you make me go crazy

Come my lady come come my lady
You're my butterfly sugar baby
Come my lady you're my pretty baby
I'll make your legs shake you make me go crazy

I don't deserve you.......
Unless it's some kind of hidden message
To show me life is precious
Then I guess it's true
But to tell truth, I really never knew 'till I met you
See I was lost and confused twisted and used up
Knew a better life existed but thought that I missed it
My lifestyle's wild I was living like a wild child
Trapped on a short leash paroled the police files
So yo what' s happening now?
I see the sun breaking down through dark clouds
And a vision of you standing out in the crowd

Come my lady come come my lady
You're my butterfly sugar baby
Come my lady you're my pretty baby
I'll make your legs shake you make me go crazy

Come my lady come come my lady
You're my butterfly sugar baby
Come my lady you're my pretty baby
I'll make your legs shake you make me go crazy

Hey sugar momma, come and dance with me
The smartest thing you ever did was take a chance with me
Whatever tickles your fancy
Girls who you knew like Sid and Nancy
So sexy almost evil talkin' about butterflies in my head
I used to think happy endings were only in the books I read
But you made me feel alive when I was almost dead
You filled that empty space with the love I used to chase
And as far as I can see it don't get better than this
So butterfly, here is a song and it's sealed with a kiss........
And a thank you miss

come and dance with me
come and dance with me
come and dance with me
so come and dance with me
uhhhhh ha uhhh ha

Come my lady come come my lady
You're my butterfly sugar baby
Come my lady you're my pretty baby
I'll make your legs shake you make me go crazy

Come my lady come come my lady
You're my butterfly sugar baby
Come my lady you're my pretty baby
I'll make your legs shake you make me go crazy

Come my lady come come my lady
You're my butterfly sugar baby
Come my lady you're my pretty baby
I'll make your legs shake you make me go crazy

Come my lady come come my lady
You're my butterfly sugar baby
Come my lady you're my pretty baby
I'll make your legs shake you make me go crazy

come and dance with me
come and dance with me
come and dance with me
come and dance with me
uhhhhhh ha uhhhhhh ha
come and dance with me
come and dance with me
come and dance with me
come and dance with me
come and dance with me
come and dance with me
come and dance with me
come and dance with me

Here's lyrics I can relate to:

Fly From the Inside by Shinedown

Here's the weight of the world on my shoulders
Here's the weight of the world on my shoulders

On my shoulders......

All alone I pierce the chain
And all in all the sting remains
And dieing eyes consume me now
The voice inside screams out loud

I am focused on what I am after
The key to the next open chapter.......

'Cause I found a way
To steal the sun from the sky
Long live that day
That I decided to fly....... from the inside

Every day a new deception
Pick your scene and take direction
And all in all I search to connect
But I don't wear a mask and I have no regrets

I am focused on what I am after
The key to the next open chapter

'Cause I found a way
To steal the sun from the sky
Long live that day
That I decided to fly....... from the inside

I can't escape the pain
I can't control the rage
Sometimes I think that I'm gonna go insane
I'm not against what's right
I'm not for what's wrong
I'm just making my way and I'm gone

Here's the weight of the world on my shoulders

'Cause I found a way
To steal the sun from the sky
Long live that day
That I decided to fly....... from the inside

'Cause I found a way
To steal the sun from the sky
Long live that day
That I decided to fly.......

From the inside

Chimes Of Freedom
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Far between sundown's finish an' midnight's broken toll
We ducked inside the doorway, thunder crashing
As majestic bells of bolts struck shadows in the sounds
Seeming to be the chimes of freedom flashing
Flashing for the warriors whose strength is not to fight
Flashing for the refugees on the unarmed road of flight
An' for each an' ev'ry underdog soldier in the night
An' we gazed upon the chimes of freedom flashing.

In the city's melted furnace, unexpectedly we watched
With faces hidden while the walls were tightening
As the echo of the wedding bells before the blowin' rain
Dissolved into the bells of the lightning
Tolling for the rebel, tolling for the rake
Tolling for the luckless, the abandoned an' forsaked
Tolling for the outcast, burnin' constantly at stake
An' we gazed upon the chimes of freedom flashing.

Through the mad mystic hammering of the wild ripping hail
The sky cracked its poems in naked wonder
That the clinging of the church bells blew far into the breeze
Leaving only bells of lightning and its thunder
Striking for the gentle, striking for the kind
Striking for the guardians and protectors of the mind
An' the unpawned painter behind beyond his rightful time
An' we gazed upon the chimes of freedom flashing.

Through the wild cathedral evening the rain unraveled tales
For the disrobed faceless forms of no position
Tolling for the tongues with no place to bring their thoughts
All down in taken-for-granted situations
Tolling for the deaf an' blind, tolling for the mute
Tolling for the mistreated, mateless mother, the mistitled prostitute
For the misdemeanor outlaw, chased an' cheated by pursuit
An' we gazed upon the chimes of freedom flashing.

Even though a cloud's white curtain in a far-off corner flashed
An' the hypnotic splattered mist was slowly lifting
Electric light still struck like arrows, fired but for the ones
Condemned to drift or else be kept from drifting
Tolling for the searching ones, on their speechless, seeking trail
For the lonesome-hearted lovers with too personal a tale
An' for each unharmful, gentle soul misplaced inside a jail
An' we gazed upon the chimes of freedom flashing.

Starry-eyed an' laughing as I recall when we were caught
Trapped by no track of hours for they hanged suspended
As we listened one last time an' we watched with one last look
Spellbound an' swallowed 'til the tolling ended
Tolling for the aching ones whose wounds cannot be nursed
For the countless confused, accused, misused, strung-out ones an' worse
An' for every hung-up person in the whole wide universe
An' we gazed upon the chimes of freedom flashing.

Angel Eyes (The Jeff Healey Band)...
Posted: 6/3/2009 12:21:12 AM
Girl, you're looking fine tonight
And every guy has got you in his sight
What you're doing with a clown like me
Is surely one of life's little mysteries

CHORUS
So tonight I'll ask
The stars above
"How did I ever win your love?"
What did I do,
What did I say
To turn your angel eyes my way

Well I'm the guy never learned to dance
Never even got one second glance
Across the crowded room was close enough
I could look but I could never touch

CHORUS
So tonight I'll ask
The stars above
"How did I ever win your love?"
What did I do,
What did I say
To turn your angel eyes my way

Don't anyone wake me
If it's just a dream
Cause she's the best thing
Ever happened to me
All you fellows
You can look all you like
But this girl, you see, she leaving here
With me tonight

SOLO

Um, there's just one more thing I need to know
If this is love, why does it scare me so?
It must be something only you can see
Cause girl I feel it when you look at me

CHORUS
So tonight I'll ask
The stars above
"How did I ever win your love?"
What did I do,
What did I say
To turn your angel eyes my way

So tonight I'll ask
The stars above
"How did I ever win your love?"
What did I do,
What did I say
To turn your angel eyes my way

Hungry Like The Wolf -by Duran Duran
Posted: 6/3/2009 5:19:32 AM
Darken the city night is awire steam in the subway earth is afire
Do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do
Woman you want me give me a sign and catch my breathing even closer behind
Do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do

In touch with the ground I'm on the hunt I'm after you
Smell like I sound I'm lost in a crowd and I'm hungry like the wolf
Straddle the line in discord and rhyme I'm on the hunt I'm after you
Mouth is alive with juices like whine and I'm hungry like the wolf

Stalked in the forest too close to hide I'll be upon you by the moonlight side
Do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do
High blood drumming on your skin it's so tight you feel my heat I'm just a moment behind
Do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do

In touch with the ground I'm on the hunt I'm after you
Scent and a sound I'm lost and I'm found and I'm hungry like the wolf
Strut on a line it's discord and rhyme I howl and I whine I'm after you
Mouth is alive all running inside and I'm hungry like the wolf

Hungry like the wolf, hungry like the wolf, hungry like the wolf

Burning the ground I break from the crowd I'm on the hunt I'm after you
I smell like I sound I'm lost and I'm found and I'm hungry like the wolf
Strut on a line it's discord and rhyme I'm on the hunt I'm after you
Mouth is alive with juices like wine and I'm hungry like the wolf
Burning the ground I break from the crowd I'm on the hunt I'm after you
Scent and a sound I'm lost and I'm found and I'm hungry like the wolf
Strut on a line it's discord and rhyme I howl and I whine I'm after you
Mouth is alive all running inside and I'm hungry like the wolf

L' autre bout du Monde - Emily Loizeau
Posted: 6/3/2009 6:36:26 AM
Courage , my Love , and thank you for your support !

On dit qu'il y fait toujours beau
C'est là que migrent les oiseaux
On dit ça
De l'autre bout du monde

J'avance seule dans le brouillard
C'est décidé ça y est, je pars
Je m'en vais
À l'autre bout du monde

L'autre bout du monde {x2}

J'arrive sur les berges d'une rivière
Une voix m'appelle puis se perd
C'est ta voix
À l'autre bout du monde

Ta voix qui me dit mon trésor
Tout ce temps, je n'étais pas mort
Je vivais
À l'autre bout du monde

L'autre bout du monde {x2}

Sur la rivière il pleut de l'or
Entre mes bras je serre ton corps
Tu es là
À l'autre bout du monde

Je te rejoins quand je m'endors
Mais je veux te revoir encore
Où est il
L'autre bout du monde ?

L'autre bout du monde {x3}

Translation

The other side of the World

It's said that the weather's always good
It's where the birds migrate to
They say that
About the other side of the world

I walk alone in the fog
It's decided, that's it, I leave
I'm off
To the other side of the world

The other side of the world (x2)

I arrive on the banks of a river
A voice calls me then is lost
It's your voice
On the other side of the world

Your voice, which tells me my precious
All this time, I was not dead
I lived
On the other side of the world

On the other side of the world (x2)

On the river it rains gold
In my arms I hold your body
You are there
On the other side of the world

I rejoin you when I fall asleep
But I want to see you again
Where is it
The other side of the world?

The other side of the world (x3)

Linda Ronstadt.......................................................

Long Long Time
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Love will abide, take things in stride
Sounds like good advice but there's no one at my side
And time washes clean love's wounds unseen
That's what someone told me but I don't know what it means.

Cause I've done everything I know to try and make you mine
And I think I'm gonna love you for a long long time

Caught in my fears
Blinking back the tears
I can't say you hurt me when you never let me near
And I never drew one response from you
All the while you fell all over girls you never knew
Cause I've done everything I know to try and make you mine
And I think it's gonna hurt me for a long long time

Wait for the day
You'll go away
Knowing that you warned me of the price I'd have to pay
And life's full of flaws
Who knows the cause?
Living in the memory of a love that never was
Cause I've done everything I know to try and change your mind
and I think I'm gonna miss you for a long long time
Cause I've done everything I know to try and make you mine
And I think I'm gonna love you for a long long time.

Blue October - Dirt Room
Posted: 6/4/2009 6:01:05 AM
I'm like a ghost
I'll be living in a dirt room
Waiting for the day to be closer
To the window when you're home
I'll be standing by your back door
Reaching for the knife in my coat
I'm going to put it to your throat
Sweaty piggy, you're a bad man
What a f**king sad way to go
Your mother raised you as a joke
I should have wiped away a burden
Use the curtain in the kitchen to choke
You

You think you own me
You should have known me
You took the future and the food off my family's plate
You think you'll use me
I'm stronger than you
You take my money, but it's useless
When see what I do to you
Look what I do to you

Oh god then you awoke
You started screaming through the duct tape
Don't ever think I'm letting you go
I'm busy digging you a hole
Now you'll be living in a dirt room
Breathing through the straw of your own
Come on
I really think that this is fun for the money
I'll make it comfy for the time wasted making you rich
I want to cover you in ants, bees and honey
Then take a picture for the cover of our album!

You think you own me
You should have known me
You took the future and the food off my family's plate
You think you'll use me
I'm stronger than you
You take my money, but it's useless
When see what I do to you

You think you own me
You should have known me
You took the future and the food off my family's plate
You think you'll use me
But I'm stronger than you
You take my money, but it's useless
When see what I do to you

And now I see you, oh
'Cause your back's against the wall
And finally you're mine
You're mine

You think you own me
You should have known me
You took the future and the food off my family's plate
You think you'll use me
I'm stronger than you
You take my money, but it's useless
When see what I do to you

I really think that this is fun for the money
We'll make you comfy for the time wasted making you rich
I want to cover you in ants, bees and honey
Then take a picture for the cover of our album!

"Walk On The Wild Side"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Holly came from Miami, F.L.A.
Hitch-hiked her way across the USA
Plucked her eyebrows on the way
Shaved her legs and then he was a she
She says, Hey babe
Take a walk on the wild side
Hey honey
Take a walk on the wild side

Candy came from out on the Island
In the backroom she was everybody's darlin'
But she never lost her head
Even when she was giving head
She says, Hey babe
Take a walk on the wild side
I Said, Hey baby
Take a walk on the wild side
And the coloured girls go
doo do doo do doo do do doo..

Little Joe never once gave it away
Everybody had to pay and pay
A hustle here and a hustle there
New York City's the place where they say,
Hey babe, take a walk on the wild side
I said, Hey Joe
Take a walk on the wild side

Sugar Plum Fairy came and hit the streets
Lookin' for soul food and a place to eat
Went to the Apollo
You should've seen em go go go
They said, Hey shuga Take a walk on the wild side
I Said, Hey babe
Take a walk on the wild side
All right, huh

Jackie is just speeding away
Thought she was James Dean for a day
Then I guess she had to crash
Valium would have helped that bash
Said, Hey babe,
Take a walk on the wild side
I said, Hey honey,
Take a walk on the wild side
and the coloured girls say,
doo do doo do doo do do doo

The smoke is rising in the shadows overhead
My glass is almost empty
I read again between the lines upon each page
The words of love you sent me

If I could know within my heart
That you were lonely too
I would happy just to hold the hands I love
Upon this winter's night with you

Epik High - Lesson One (Tablo's Word)
Posted: 6/4/2009 8:32:10 PM
definitely lyrics I love...and among my favorites.

Yeah, people, attention
Education, knowledge
Huh, yeah, I got something to say to my teachers
Genius is not the answer to all questions
It's the question to all answers

Do we learn math to add the dead's sum?
Subtract the weak ones, count cash for great ones?
Yo, we multiply but divide the nation...
Break down like fractions, send our sons away to die...
Do we learn science in defiance of faith?
To make alliance with fakes for an appliance's sake?
We ask for the real to make artificial intelligence to make smarter kills of others' presidents...

Why do we learn history? To fix stories for the guilty...
Make angels look filthy and the devils look milky...
If the victor writes the books then what have we won?
Are we battleships of authorship for rich men's guns?

Do we learn to read to receive the lies,
to deceive the eyes from seeing between the lines?
Yo, we use words to bring forth sticks and stones,
to sing songs of hate that fill the streets with bones.

Unseen or heard,
a king with words
Tablo, lyrical assassin

y-y-yeah yeah

Make me vision for better livin'

Unseen or heard,
a king with words
Tablo, lyrical assassin

y-y-yeah yeah
Make me vision
(I'm the truth)

Is a day job more than self-slavery?
When we're locked watching the clock impatiently?
We sweat for the dollar bills, the checks, and the credit cards...
but the dollar kills, breaks the necks of our inner hearts...

If the police are role models for the righteous,
why does justice depend on guns and nightsticks?
Mr. officer, don't punish me, with brutality...
The streets got me singing Marvin Gaye off-key...

Why do we need church to get to heaven's gates?
Can holy water quench the thirst of those whose fates
Started in the wrong place with the wrong face?
Can the poor and the hungry survive solely on grace?
Can this rap game ever bring changes?
When MCs would rather floss a cross than be saviors?
Will I last in this game, be blasted with shame
Will I stand for my name and never blaspheme for fame?

Unseen or heard,
a king with words
Tablo, lyrical assassin

y-y-yeah yeah

Make me vision for better livin'

Unseen or heard,
a king with words
Tablo, lyrical assassin

y-y-yeah yeah
Make me vision

a king with words
Tablo, lyrical assassin

y-y-yeah yeah

Make me vision for better livin'

Unseen or heard,
a king with words
Tablo, lyrical assassin

y-y-yeah yeah
Make me vision

definitely lyrics I love...and among my favorites.

Yeah, people, attention
Education, knowledge
Huh, yeah, I got something to say to my teachers
Genius is not the answer to all questions
It's the question to all answers

Do we learn math to add the dead's sum?
Subtract the weak ones, count cash for great ones?
Yo, we multiply but divide the nation...
Break down like fractions, send our sons away to die...
Do we learn science in defiance of faith?
To make alliance with fakes for an appliance's sake?
We ask for the real to make artificial intelligence to make smarter kills of others' presidents...

Why do we learn history? To fix stories for the guilty...
Make angels look filthy and the devils look milky...
If the victor writes the books then what have we won?
Are we battleships of authorship for rich men's guns?

Do we learn to read to receive the lies,
to deceive the eyes from seeing between the lines?
Yo, we use words to bring forth sticks and stones,
to sing songs of hate that fill the streets with bones.

Unseen or heard,
a king with words
Tablo, lyrical assassin

y-y-yeah yeah

Make me vision for better livin'

Unseen or heard,
a king with words
Tablo, lyrical assassin

y-y-yeah yeah
Make me vision
(I'm the truth)

Is a day job more than self-slavery?
When we're locked watching the clock impatiently?
We sweat for the dollar bills, the checks, and the credit cards...
but the dollar kills, breaks the necks of our inner hearts...

If the police are role models for the righteous,
why does justice depend on guns and nightsticks?
Mr. officer, don't punish me, with brutality...
The streets got me singing Marvin Gaye off-key...

Why do we need church to get to heaven's gates?
Can holy water quench the thirst of those whose fates
Started in the wrong place with the wrong face?
Can the poor and the hungry survive solely on grace?
Can this rap game ever bring changes?
When MCs would rather floss a cross than be saviors?
Will I last in this game, be blasted with shame
Will I stand for my name and never blaspheme for fame?

Unseen or heard,
a king with words
Tablo, lyrical assassin

y-y-yeah yeah

Make me vision for better livin'

Unseen or heard,
a king with words
Tablo, lyrical assassin

y-y-yeah yeah

Your Favorite Music Lyrics

My love she throws me like a rubber ball
Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing
She wont catch me or break my fall
Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing
Babys got blue skies up ahead
But in this Im a rain cloud
You know she likes a dry kind of love
Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing

Im losing you
Hey hey hey, Im losing you yeah
Aint love the sweetest thing

I wanted to run but she made me crawl
Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing
Eternal fire, she turned me to straw
Oh oh, the sweetest thing
You know I got black eyes
But they burn so brightly for her
Mine is a blind kind of love
Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing

Im losing you
Oh oh oh, Im losing you yeah
Aint love the sweetest thing
Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing
Oh oh, yeah

Blue-eyed boy and this brown-eyed girl
Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing
You can sew it up but you still see the tear
Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing
Babys got blue skies up ahead
And in this I'm a rain cloud
You know we got a stormy kind of love
Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing
Oh oh, the sweetest thing
Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing
Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing

There are places i'll remember
All my life though some have changed
Some forever not for better
Some have gone and some remain
All these places have their moments
With lovers and friends i still can recall
Some are dead and some are living
In my life i've loved them all

But of all these friends and lovers
There is no one compares with you
And these memories lose their meaning
When i think of love as something new
Though i know i'll never lose affection
For people and things that went before
I know i'll often stop and think about them
In my life i love you more

Though i know i'll never lose affection
For people and things that went before
I know i'll often stop and think about them
In my life i love you more
In my life i love you more

Jolene


Been so long since I seen your face
Or felt a part of this human race
I've been living out of this here suitcase for way too long
A man needs something he can hold onto
A nine pound hammer or a woman like you
Either one of them things will do
Jolene
I ain't about to go straight
It's too late
I found myself face down in a ditch
Booze in my hair
Blood on my lips
A picture of you holding a picture of me
In the pocket of my blue jeans
Still don't know what love means
Still don't know what love means
Jolene

"A Horse With No Name "
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

On the first part of the journey
I was looking at all the life
There were plants and birds and rocks and things
There was sand and hills and rings
The first thing I met was a fly with a buzz
And the sky with no clouds
The heat was hot and the ground was dry
But the air was full of sound

I’ve been through the desert on a horse with no name
It felt good to be out of the rain
In the desert you can remember your name
’cause there ain’t no one for to give you no pain
La, la ...

After two days in the desert sun
My skin began to turn red
After three days in the desert fun
I was looking at a river bed
And the story it told of a river that flowed
Made me sad to think it was dead

You see I’ve been through the desert on a horse with no name
It felt good to be out of the rain
In the desert you can remember your name
’cause there ain’t no one for to give you no pain
La, la ...

After nine days I let the horse run free
’cause the desert had turned to sea
There were plants and birds and rocks and things
There was sand and hills and rings
The ocean is a desert with it’s life underground
And a perfect disguise above
Under the cities lies a heart made of ground
But the humans will give no love

You see I’ve been through the desert on a horse with no name
It felt good to be out of the rain
In the desert you can remember your name
’cause there ain’t no one for to give you no pain
La, la ...

A Fine Frenzy
Posted: 6/5/2009 12:28:04 PM
Come on, come out
The weather is warm
Come on, come out
Said come on, come on

A spot in the shade
Where oranges fall
A spot in the shade
Away from it all

Watching the sky
Watching a painting coming to life
Shaping and shifting
Staying inside
It all goes it all goes by

A blanket unfolds
A blanket tonight
The pieces of gold
They light up your eyes
Now we're alone
Now we're alive

Watching the sky
Watching the painting come to life
Shifting and shaping
Staying inside
It all goes it all goes it all goes by

Stopping the time
Rushing, waiting
Leave it behind
Shifting and shaping
Keep it inside
It all goes it all goes it all goes by
It all goes passing by
It all goes passing by
