This Mountain

sierpień 5, 2008

This Mountain

Well a wise man once said to me
If your heart don’t break you won’t be
free
I’m as free as a bird
Flying out over flying out over the sea

I call out to the wind
No one comes to let me in
I hear the thunder
The weight on my shoulders
The weight up on my shoulders crushing
me

Shine down on this mountain
Rain down on my face
Call out to the river
To wash me out
To was me out of this place

Well I wish that I was a sailorman
With the wheel of the ship held in my
hand
But I don’t like the water
I’m more like the anchor
I wish I was the anchor in me

Sometimes I wish I was a sin
So the ones I love wouldn’t let me in
I wouldn’t have to try to find the
answers
To give ‘em all the answers they need


Nullabour song

sierpień 5, 2008

Nullabour song

When the fire burns out here
It’s brighter than the city lights
Warmer than a heart of gold
And dingo’s howl just to break the
silence

The sun comes up just to break the cold
Last night I woke
With the stars looking back at me
Swallowing the sky
I felt no anger, I felt no shame
I felt no reason to cry

If I’m not here in the morning
I’ll cry a river of tears
But I’ll learn to live in a new town
But my heart is staying here

When it’s quiet out here
A hundred miles away
You can hear the train on the line
The whistle blows just to break the silence
I wave just to break the time
I close my eyes
I think of runnin’ water
I think of runnin’ away
But the fires burnt to ashes
And it’s darker than before
But I can see as clear as day


Barricades and brickwalls

sierpień 5, 2008

Barricades and brickwalls

Barricades and brickwalls won’t keep me
from you
You can tie me down on the railroad
track
You can let that freight train lose
Iron bars and big ole cars
Won’t run me out of town
I’ll be damned if you’re not my man
Before the sun goes down

You can chain me down
On the edge of town
You can leave me there to die
But the railroad track

Will bring me back
When the lonesome whistle cries
You can lock me out
You can scream and shout
You can try to change your name
But by the end of the day
I’ll take you away
Like a force 10 hurricane


Beautiful Contradiction

Beautiful Contradiction

[Beverley Knight]
Guess my Mama knew exactly what she meant the day she said
“Be careful what you wish for it will come to you.”
Little did I know the day I met you, you would demonstrate
How everything in Mama’s words would ring so true
Independent people with a different take on living
Now how did we become more than just good friends?

[Chorus (Both)]
Baby we make such a beautiful contradiction
Together we are in no two ways the same.
Baby we make such a beautiful contradiction
And it’s the very thing that sparks the flame.

[Musiq Soulchild]
You and I should be like oil and water
but somehow we mix together and we make a very special blend
Every day we clash on politics, religion,
but we learned the art of how to kiss and make up in the end yeah.
Sometimes I believe that we were born on different planets
Alien invasion of my heart and soul

[Chorus]

[Beverley Knight]
I realise it, you learn, you gotta cry, you gotta respect and
Feel somebody you gotta fall, you gotta rise
To really understand the things that make this little world go round.
That’s what really makes us, that’s how we learn.

Sometimes I believe that we were born on different planets
Alien invasion of my heart and soul.

[Chorus]


Gold

sierpień 5, 2008

Gold

Some people never recognise it
Though it’s right before their eyes
And shines in all its glory
They never ever see
They choose something that looks just like it
And it may glitter all the time
But gold it will never be
I guess you never held on to quality
Or you woulda recognised by now
Something so special so true
When it’s standing right in front of you

I’m gold babe
Catch me in the slipstream
Passing by the fools who just don’t know
Pure gold babe
You’re looking at the real thing
If you knew my worth you wouldn’t let go [x2]

Oh no!

Gold lies in rivers undiscovered
Hidden from the sight of those
Who don’t know what to look for
(They ain’t never gonna find it)
Sometimes the value is uncovered
Other times it’s cast aside
By those who are just unsure

I guess you never held on to quality
Or you would of recognised by now
Something so special so true
When she’s standing right in front of you

[Chorus]

All the things you failed to see
Separated you from me
I decide who wins my time
And who comes inside yeah
Cause what is true and what is real
Finds a way of being revealed
I don’t have to even try
Cause I’m certifiedĄ-pureĄ-

[Chorus (x2)]


Same (As I Ever Was)

sierpień 5, 2008

Same (As I Ever Was)

Still got my fire, I’m never cold
It burns within me, It’s taken hold
Still finding mountains , I’ve yet to climb
I still get lonely, But never mind

I’m the same
Same
As I
As I ever was
The same
As I
As I ever was
True to the last word baby
Still making myself heard baby
I’m the same
Yeah
I’m the same
Yeah

Still got my family, Old friends of mine
I know they still will stand, The test of time
Still feel my history, My future too
Black gold and green, Red white and blue

[Chorus (x2)]

Still got my temple. Each curve and line
Those who can’t get with that , Ain’t worth my time
Can’t compromise no, That would be strange
I’m still that Aries lady, ain’t nothin’ changed


Shape Of You

sierpień 5, 2008

Shape Of You

This woman’s eyes ain’t got no colour
When I think about life without you
Even if it’s for the best, regardless
It’s the hardest thing to do
Looking at the path that we’ve taken
We didn’t leave a stone unturned
But don’t you believe that this won’t slay me
Even if I act unconcerned

With a smile, I’ll face the world
Though my eyes reflect the truth
I’m moving on
But you know I do.
With a hole in my heart in the shape of you.
With a hole in my heart in the shape of you.

I step into unchartered water
And I’m afraid of what I’ve done
See I can’t head toward my future
Reminicing on how just far we had come
Maybe we could find redemption
Maybe then it all could make sense
Until then I must believe these words
Even though I think you know
That I’m unconvinced

[Chorus]


Shoulda Woulda Coulda

sierpień 5, 2008

Shoulda Woulda Coulda

People say that together we were both sides of the same coin
That we would shine like Venus in a clear night sky
We thought our love could overcome the circumstances
But my ambition wouldn’t allow for compromise

I could see in the distance all the dreams that were clear to me
Every choice that I had to make left you on your own
Somehow the road we started down had split asunder
Too late to realise how far apart we’d grown.
How I wish I, wish I’d done a little bit more

Now ” Shoulda woulda coulda,” means I’m out of time
Coz “Shoulda woulda coulda”, can’t change your mind
And I wonder, wonder, wonder what I’m gonna do
“Shoulda woulda coulda” are the last words of a fool

People ask how it feels to live the kind of life others dream about
I tell them everybody gotta face their highs and their lows
And in my life there’s a love I put aside, cause I was busy loving something else
So for every little thing you hold on to, you’ve got to let something else go

[Chorus]

Fool if I would now forsake the opportunities are fate
I know I’m right where I belong
But sometimes when I’m not so strong I..

[Chorus (x2)]


Who I Am :: Fallen Soldier

sierpień 5, 2008

Who I Am :: Fallen Soldier

Stranger on the face of it.
Brother in the heart of a nation that prays for you, loves you, calls you by name

Struck out, like some criminal
Cut down like an animal, suddenly everything I know, just ain’t the same

We ask for solution
Did anyone hear us?
For your retribution
Did anyone care?
So while this world marches on with the memory gone
My heart will remember

You are my fallen soldier
One of our many martyrs
I would have loved to know you
Still you’re my fallen soldier

[Rpt x 2]
