Stanfour feat Jill Let me sleep in your Arms

Posted by Rachel on 14th January 2011 in Love, Lyrics


I’ll keep going on
As just another one
With another song who wants to be the only one for you
Just another guy
Blinded by your smile
Just a lonely heart can’t stand this aching feeling
We’re apart…apart

Let me sleep in your arms
Let me breath this clean bright light surrounding you

I know I’m not smart
But still I’m trying hard
Let me be your guard
Protecting you, my angel, from the dark

I will not pretend
That I’m just a friend
My deliverance
Will you think about me every now and then…
When I call again

Let me sleep in your arms
Let me breath this clean bright light surrounding you
Let me dream in your arms
Let me breath this clean bright light surrounding you

Let me sleep in your arms
Let me breath in your arms
Let me sleep this clean bright light surroundïng you

Johnny Cash One

Posted by Rachel on 6th December 2010 in Lyrics, Music Legend

Johnny Cash was born on February 26, 1932 and died on September 12, 2003 – an American singer-songwriter, actor and author, one of the most influential musicians of the 20th century.

Is it getting better
Or do you feel the same
Will it make it easier on you now
If you’ve got someone to blame

You said one love
One life
When it’s one need
In the night
One love we get to share it
It leaves you baby if you don’t care for it

Did I disappoint you
Or leave a bad taste in your mouth
You act like you never had love
And you want me to go without

Well it’s too late
Tonight
To drag the past out
Into the light
We’re one but we’re not the same
We get to carry each other
Carry each other
One

Have you come here for forgivness
Have you come to raise the dead
Have you come here to play jesus
To the lepors in your head

Did I ask too much
More than a lot
You gave me nothing now
It’s all I got
We’re one but we’re not the same
Well we hurt each other and we’re doin it again

You said love is a temple
Love the higher law
Love is a temple
Love the higher law

You ask me to enter
But then you make me crawl
I can’t be holdin on
To what you’ve got
When all you’ve got is hurt

One love
One blood
One life
You’ve got to do what you should
One life with each other
Sister
Brothers
One life but we’re not the same
We get to carry each other
Carry each other
One

Butterfly, butterfly (The Last Hurrah) by a-ha

Posted by Rachel on 3rd December 2010 in Lyrics

Butterfly, butterfly
Flying into the wind
You can be sure of it
That’s no place to begin

Over thinking every little thing
Acknowledge the bell you can’t unring

Tomorrow, you don’t have to say what you’re thinking
You don’t have to mean what you say

Butterfly, butterfly
Flutter in to the skies
Butterfly, butterfly
Their molecular cries

Chrysalis dreams waiting on the fifth in-star
These stained glass wings could only take you so far
You don’t have to say that it matters

You don’t have to turn something in
Stay with it through thick and thin
Butterfly, begin

Butterfly, butterfly

From Wikipedia:

I’m Calling You – Bagdad Café – Jeff Buckley

Posted by Rachel on 22nd November 2010 in Lyrics

A desert road from vegas to nowhere
some place better tham where you’re been
A coffee machine that needs some fixing
In a little cafe just around the bend
I am calling you
Can’t you hear me
I am calling you
A hot dry wind blows right through me
The baby’s crying and I can’t sleep
But we both know a change is coming
coming closer, sweet release
I am calling you
Can’t you hear me
I am calling you
I am calling you
Can’t you hear me
I am calling you
A desert road from vegas to nowhere
Some place better than where you’ve been
A coffee machine that needs some fixing
In a little cafe just around the bend
A hot dry winblows right through me
The baby’s crying and I can’t sleep
But we both know a change is coming
coming closer, sweet release
I am calling you
can’t you hear me
I am calling you

James Blunt – Goodbye My Lover

Posted by Rachel on 13th October 2010 in Lyrics


Did I disappoint you or let you down?
Should I be feeling guilty or let the judges frown?
‘Cause I saw the end before we’d begun,
Yes I saw you were blinded and I knew I had won.
So I took what’s mine by eternal right.
Took your soul out into the night.
It may be over but it won’t stop there,
I am here for you if you’d only care.
You touched my heart you touched my soul.
You changed my life and all my goals.
And love is blind and that I knew when,
My heart was blinded by you.
I’ve kissed your lips and held your hand.
Shared your dreams and shared your bed.
I know you well, I know your smell.
I’ve been addicted to you.

Chorus (2x)
Goodbye my lover.
Goodbye my friend.
You have been the one.
You have been the one for me.

I am a dreamer and when I wake,
You can’t break my spirit – it’s my dreams you take.
And as you move on, remember me,
Remember us and all we used to be
I’ve seen you cry, I’ve seen you smile.
I’ve watched you sleeping for a while.
I’d be the father of your child.
I’d spend a lifetime with you.
I know your fears and you know mine.
We’ve had our doubts but now we’re fine,
And I love you, I swear that’s true.
I cannot live without you.

Chorus (2x)
Goodbye my lover.
Goodbye my friend.
You have been the one.
You have been the one for me.

And I still hold your hand in mine.
In mine when I’m asleep.
And I will bear my soul in time,
When I’m kneeling at your feet.

Chorus (2x)
Goodbye my lover.
Goodbye my friend.
You have been the one.
You have been the one for me.

I’m so hollow, baby, I’m so hollow.
I’m so, I’m so, I’m so hollow.

Sting – Shape of my Heart

Posted by Rachel on 16th September 2010 in Lyrics, Music Legend


He deals the cards as a meditation
And those he plays never suspect
He doesn’t play for the money he wins
He doesn’t play for respect
He deals the crads to find the answer
The sacred geometry of chance
The hidden loaw of a probable outcome
The numbers lead a dance

I know that the spades are swords of a soldier
I know that the clubs are weapons of war
I know that diamonds mean money for this art
But that’s not the shape of my heart

He may play the jack of diamonds
He may lay the queen of spades
He may conceal a king in his hand
While the memory of it fades

I know that the spades are swords of a soldier
I know that the clubs are weapons of war
I know that diamonds mean money for this art
But that’s not the shape of my heart

And if I told you that I loved you
You’d maybe think there’s something wrong
I’m not a man of too many faces
The mask I wear is one
Those who speak know nothing
And find out to their cost
Like those who curse their luck in too many places
And those who fear are lost

I know that the spades are swords of a soldier
I know that the clubs are weapons of war
I know that diamonds mean money for this art
But that’s not the shape of my heart

Diana Ross – When You Tell Me That You Love Me

Posted by Rachel on 29th July 2010 in Love, Lyrics


Songwriters: John Bettis, Albert Louis Hammond
I wanna call the stars
Down from the sky
I wanna live a day
That never dies
I wanna change the world
Only for you
All the impossible
I wanna do

I wanna hold you close
Under the rain
I wanna kiss your smile
And feel the pain
I know what’s beautiful
Looking at you
In a world of lies
You are the truth

And baby
Everytime you touch me
I become a hero
I’ll make you safe
No matter where you are
And bring you
Everything you ask for
Nothing is above me
I’m shining like a candle in the dark
When you tell me that you love me

I wanna make you see
Just what I was
Show you the loneliness
And what it does
You walked into my life
To stop my tears
Everything’s easy now
I have you here

And baby
Everytime you touch me
I become a hero
I’ll make you safe
No matter where you are
And bring you
Everything you ask for
Nothing is above me
I’m shining like a candle in the dark
When you tell me that you love me

In a world without you
I would always hunger
All I need is your love to make me stronger

And baby
Everytime you touch me
I become a hero
I’ll make you safe
No matter where you are
And bring you
Everything you ask for
Nothing is above me
I’m shining like a candle in the dark
When you tell me that you love me

You love me
When you tell me that you love me

Sea Sunset

Posted by Rachel on 28th June 2010 in Love, Lyrics


Music by Tarja Turunen – Damned and Divine

It on’t help if you wait for me.
I’m a slave to the dark.
I know I’m not a saint, you see.
The dawn is when it starts.

Feel the shadow of my oblivion
Hoping mercy would show her face.
On the road to your own perdition
In the coal-blackened rain.

Frozen in time, yearning forbidden wishes.
Damned and divine.
Scars of my broken kisses.
What will follow if tomorrow’s blind?
My eternal night.

As the wind takes me away from you
Before the morning light.
My sins are fading into view
I’m so weary deep inside

Feel the shadow of my oblivion
Hoping mercy would show her face
On the road to your own perdition
I may see you again.

Frozen in time, yearning forbidden wishes.
Damned and divine.
Scars of my broken kisses.
What will follow if tomorrow’s blind?
My eternal night.

Every single dawn I die again.

Dalida and Alain Delon Paroles, paroles

Posted by Rachel on 21st June 2010 in Lyrics


French

C’est étrange,
Je ne sais pas ce qui m’arrive ce soir,
Je te regarde comme pour la première fois.
Encore des mots toujours des mots
Les mêmes mots
Je ne sais plus comme te dire,
Rien que des mots
Mais tu es cette belle histoire d’amour…
Que je ne cesserai jamais de lire.
Des mots faciles des mots fragiles
C’était trop beau
Tu es d’hier et de demain
Bien trop beau
De toujours ma seule vérité.
Mais c’est fini le temps des rêves
Les souvenirs se fanent aussi
Quand on les oublie
Tu es comme le vent qui fait chanter les violons
Et emporte au loin le parfum des roses.
Caramels, bonbons et chocolats
Par moments, je ne te comprends pas.
Merci, pas pour moi
Mais tu peux bien les offrir à une autre
Qui aime le vent et le parfum des roses
Moi, les mots tendres enrobés de douceur
Se posent sur ma bouche mais jamais sur mon coeur
Une parole encore.
Paroles, paroles, paroles
Écoute-moi.
Paroles, paroles, paroles
Je t’en prie.
Paroles, paroles, paroles
Je te jure.
Paroles, paroles, paroles, paroles, paroles
Encore des paroles que tu sèmes au vent
Voilà mon destin te parler….
Te parler comme la première fois.
Encore des mots toujours des mots
Les mêmes mots
Comme j’aimerais que tu me comprennes.
Rien que des mots
Que tu m’écoutes au moins une fois.
Des mots magiques des mots tactiques
Qui sonnent faux
Tu es mon rêve défendu.
Oui, tellement faux
Mon seul tourment et mon unique espérance.
Rien ne t’arrête quand tu commences
Si tu savais comme j’ai envie
D’un peu de silence
Tu es pour moi la seule musique…
Qui fit danser les étoiles sur les dunes
Caramels, bonbons et chocolats
Si tu n’existais pas déjà je t’inventerais.
Merci, pas pour moi
Mais tu peux bien les ouvrir à une autre
Qui aime les étoiles sur les dunes
Moi, les mots tendres enrobés de douceur
Se posent sur ma bouche mais jamais sur mon coeur
Encore un mot juste une parole
Paroles, paroles, paroles
Écoute-moi.
Paroles, paroles, paroles
Je t’en prie.
Paroles, paroles, paroles
Je te jure.
Paroles, paroles, paroles, paroles, paroles
Encore des paroles que tu sèmes au vent
Que tu es belle!
Paroles, paroles, paroles
Que tu est belle!
Paroles, paroles, paroles
Que tu es belle!
Paroles, paroles, paroles
Que tu es belle!
Paroles, paroles, paroles, paroles, paroles
Encore des paroles que tu sèmes au vent

English
Alain:
It’s strange, I do not know what happens tonight
It’s like watching you for the first time

Dalida:
Still words words always the same words
I do not know how to tell you
Nothing but words
But you are this beautiful love story that I have never stopped reading
Words are easy words fragile it was too good
you are yesterday and tomorrow
it’s too good
As always my only truth
But it’s over time dreams
Memories fade as when we forget
You are like the wind that makes violins sing
And takes the scent of roses
Caramels, candies and chocolates
Sometimes I do not understand you
Thank you, but not for me
You may well offer another
Who loves the wind and the scent of roses
words wrapped in a soft sweetness
arise on my mouth, but never on my heart
A word again

Words and words and words
Listen
Words and words and words
I beg you
Words and words and words
I swear to you
Words and words and words and words
Words and more words that you sow the wind

This is my destiny you speak, you speak like the first time
Still words words always the same words
Because I want you to understand me
Nothing but words
Whether you m’écoutes at least once
Words magic words that sound wrong tactics
You are my dream defended
Yes so wrong
My only torment and my only hope
Nothing stops when you start
If you knew as I want a bit of silence
You are for me the only music
That makes the stars dancing on the dunes
Caramels, candies and chocolates
If you did not exist already …
Thanks not for me, but
You may well offer another
Who loves the stars on the dunes
words wrapped in a soft sweetness
land on my mouth but never on my heart
Another word just a word

Words and words and words
Listen
Words and words and words
I beg you
Words and words and words
I swear to you
Words and words and words and words
Words and more words that you sow the wind
Whether you are beautiful!
Words and words and words
Whether you are beautiful!
Words and words and words
Whether you are beautiful!
Words and words and words
Whether you are beautiful!
Words and words and words and words
Words and more words that you sow the wind.

Make Someone Happy – Barbra Streisand

Posted by Rachel on 22nd May 2010 in Love, Lyrics


Jimmy Durante
Make someone happy,
Make just one someone happy;
Make just one heart the heart you sing to.
One smile that cheers you,
One face that lights when it nears you,
One girl you’re ev’rything to.

Fame if you win it,
Comes and goes in a minute.
Where’s the real stuff in life to cling to?
Love is the answer,
Someone to love is the answer.
Once you’ve found her, build your world around her.

Make someone happy,
Make just one someone happy,
And you will be happy, too.
