This song meant a great deal to me when I had to make a big decision. I made that decision and have never regretted it, but the song remains special.
If you were a king up there on your throne,
would you be wise enough to let me go
for this queen you think you own
wants to be a hunter again,
wants to see the world alone again
to take a chance on life again, so let me go, let me leave
Dido, 'Hunter'
(Ok, call me sad....but it's a classic)
Sweet Child 'o Mine by G 'n' R
Silky xxxxxxxxx
She's got a smile that it seems to me
Reminds me of childhood memories
Where everything
Was as fresh as the bright blue sky
Now and then when I see her face
She takes me away to that
special place
And if I stared too long
I'd probably break down and cry
Sweet child o' mine
Sweet love of mine
She's got eyes of the bluest skies
As if they thought of rain
I hate to look into those eyes
And see an ounce of pain
Her hair reminds me
of a warm safe place
Where as a child I'd hide
And pray for the thunder
And the rain
To quietly pass me by
Sweet child o' mine
Sweet love of mine
Where do we go
Where do we go now
Where do we go
Sweet child o' mine
awwwwwwww GnR rock thank god for kerrang channel Hi there Sappho
My two favourite lyrics come from Lloyd Cole (yes Sappho, he's still recording).
From Perfect Skin, the perfect description of a woman:
"Cheekbones like geometry and eyes like sin"
From Old Enough To Know Better, the best song about being wronged by your woman:
"And when it's too late she smiles, takes your hand and says 'Sorry I ruined your life'"
UPDATE: Can't believe I forgot the most beautiful expression of what it is to be in love from Witchita Lineman:
"And I need you more than want you"
Where do you start? Call me old-fashioned - OK just call me old - but Carly Simon has to be up there for wordcraft and musicality. It builds. Read it through. Or better still listen to it : -
THE CARTER FAMILY
The Carter family lived next door for almost 14 years
With Gwen and I inseperable from rag dolls through brassieres
Then Gwen began to bore me with her giggles and her fears
The day the Carters moved away, I had to fake my tears
I told new friends Gwen Carter had become a silly pest
And then I found I missed her more than I'd ever have guessed
Grandma used to nag at me to straighten up my spine
To act respectful and read good books
To take care of what was mine
I hated being criticized and asking her permission
So what if her advice was wise, It always hurt to listen
I didn't cry when Granny died, she made me so depressed
And then I found I missed her more than I'd ever have guessed
You used to make me moan in bed, but that can't be enough
My friends complained your jokes were crude,
Your manners were too rough
Don't know just what I wanted, but I know I wanted more
Someone smooth, presentable, to blend with my decor
And now at night I think of how you grinned when you undressed
And I find I miss you more than I'd ever have guessed.
Who hasn't been there...

Ok here's one of my favourites............
Depeche Mode - Somebody
I want somebody to share
Share the rest of my life
Share my innermost thoughts
Know my intimate details
Someone who’ll stand by my side
And give me support
And in return
She’ll get my support
She will listen to me
When I want to speak
About the world we live in
And life in general
Though my views may be wrong
They may even be perverted
She’ll hear me out
And won’t easily be converted
To my way of thinking
In fact she’ll often disagree
But at the end of it all
She will understand me
Aaaahhhhh....
I want somebody who cares
For me passionately
With every thought and
With every breath
Someone who’ll help me see things
In a different light
All the things I detest
I will almost like
I don’t want to be tied
To anyone’s strings
I’m carefully trying to steer clear of
Those things
But when I’m asleep
I want somebody
Who will put their arms around me
And kiss me tenderly
Though things like this
Make me sick
In a case like this
I’ll get away with it
Aaaahhhhh....

Being the sucker for punishment that I am, I'm going to nominate Eels' "Daisies of the Galaxy". It never fails to make me cry.

its called dreaming of you by Selena ....
Late at night when all the world is sleeping
I stay up and think of you
And I wish on a star that somewhere you are
Thinking of me too
Cause I'm dreaming of you tonight
Till tomorrow I'll be holding you tight
And there's nowhere in the world I'd rather be
Than here in my room dreaming about you and me
Wonder if you ever see me
And I wonder if you know I'm there
If you looked in my eyes
Would you see what's inside
Would you even care?
I just wanna hold you close
But so far all I have a dreams of you
So I wait for the day
And the courage to say how much I love you
Yes I do!
I'll be dreaming of you tonight
Till tomorrow I'll be holding you tight
And there's nowhere in the world I'd rather be
Than here in my room dreaming about you and me
Late at night when all the world is sleeping
I stay up and think of you
And I still can't believe
That you came up to me and said "I love you"
I love you too!
Now I'm dreaming with you tonight
Till tomorrow and for all of my life
And there's nowhere in the world I'd rather be
Than here in my room dreaming of you endlessly
Dreaming of you tonight
Till tomorrow I'll be holding you tight
And there's nowhere in the world I'd rather be
Than here in my room
I'll be dreaming of you tonight
Endlessly
And I'll be holding you tight
Dreaming...with you...tonight!
yeah i know im a soppy git .. but they are lovely words !!!! :smitten:
