Song Lyrics you love


Lil Miss Bump

Recommended Posts

You don't need to write the whole song-but let us know who sang it etc!

This whole song I absolutely love.....makes me cry tho!

Smile though your heart is aching

Smile even though it's breaking

When there are clouds in the sky, you'll get by

If you smile through your fear and sorrow

Smile and maybe tomorrow

You'll see the sun come shining through for you

Light up your face with gladness

Hide every trace of sadness

Although a tear may be ever so near

That's the time you must keep on trying

Smile, what's the use of crying?

You'll find that life is still worthwhile

If you just smile

That's the time you must keep on trying

Smile, what's the use of crying?

You'll find that life is still worthwhile

If you just smile

If it makes you less sad, I will die by your hand. I hope you find out what you want. I already know what I am. And if it makes you less sad, we'll start talking again. And you can tell me how vile I already know that I am. I'll grow old and start acting my age. I'll be a brand new day in a life that you hate. A crown of gold. A heart that's harder than stone. And it hurts a whole lot, but it's missed when it's gone. Call me a safe bet. I'm betting I'm not. I'm glad that you can forgive. I'm only hoping as time goes, you can forget. If it makes you less sad, I'll move out of the state. You can keep to yourself. I'll keep out of your way. And if it makes you less sad, I'll take your pictures all down. Every picture you paint, I will paint myself out. It's cold as a tomb, and it's dark in your room, when I sneak to your bed to pour salt in your wounds. So call it quits or get a grip. Say you wanted a solution. You just wanted to be missed. Call me a safe bet. I'm betting I'm not. I'm glad that you can forgive. I'm only hoping as time goes, you can forget... You are calm and reposed. Let your beauty unfold. Pale white, like the skin stretched over your bones. Spring keeps you ever close. You are second hand smoke. You are so fragile and thin. Standing trial for your sins. Holding onto yourself the best you can. You are the smell before rain. You are the blood in my veins. Call me a safe bet. I'm betting I'm not. I'm glad that you can forgive. I'm only hoping as time goes, you can forget.

I don't want anything in between

Then came a baby boy with long eyelashes

And daddy said "you gotta show the world the thunder"

I wanna scream 'I love you' from the top of my lungs

But I'm afraid that someone else will hear me

Daddy's Hands by The Judds

I REMEMBER DADDY'S HANDS FOLDED SILENTLY IN PRAYER

AND REACHING OUT TO HOLD ME WHEN I HAD I NIGHTMARE

YOU COULD READ QUITE A STORY IN THE CALLOUSES AND LINES

YEARS OF WORK AND WORRY HAD LEFT THEIR MARK BEHIND

I REMEMBER DADDY'S HANDS HOW THEY HELD MY MAMA TIGHT

AND PATTED MY BACK FOR SOMETHING DONE RIGHT

THERE ARE THINGS THAT I'VE FORGOTTEN THAT

I LOVED ABOUT THE MAN

BUT I'LL ALWAYS REMEMBER THE LOVE IN DADDY'S HANDS

(CHORUS) DADDY'S HANDS WERE SOFT AND KIND

WHEN I WAS CRYING

DADDY'S HANDS WERE HARD AS STEEL

WHEN I'D DONE WRONG

DADDY'S HANDS WEREN'T ALWAYS GENTLE

BUT I'VE COME TO UNDERSTAND

THERE WAS ALWAYS LOVE IN DADDY'S HANDS

I REMEMBER DADDY'S HANDS WORKING TILL THEY BLED

SACRIFICED UNSELFISHLY JUST TO KEEP US ALL FED

IF I COULD DO THINGS OVER, I'D LIVE MY LIFE AGAIN

AND NEVER TAKE FOR GRANTED THE LOVE IN DADDY'S HANDS

Holes on the floor of heaven - Steve Wariner

One day SHY OF eight years old

Grandma passed away

I was a broken hearted little boy,

blowing out that birthday cake

How I cried when the sky let go

with a cold and lonesome rain

Momma smiled said don't be sad child

Grandma's watchin you today

'Cause there's holes in the floor of Heaven

and her tears are pourin' down

that's how you know she's watchin'

wishin' she could be here now

And sometimes if you're lonely

just remember she can see

there's holes in the floor of Heaven

and she's watchin' over you and me

Seasons come and seasons go

nothin' stays the same

I grew up fell in love

met a girl who took my name

Year by year we made a life

in this sleepy little town

I thought we'd grow old together

Lord I sure do miss her now

But there's holes in the floor of Heaven

and her tears are pourin' down

that's how you know she's watchin'

wishin' she could be here now

and sometimes when I'm lonely

I remember she can see

there's holes in the floor of Heaven

and she's watchin' over you and me

Well my little girl is 23

I walk her down the aisle

it's a shame her mom can't be here now

to see her lovely smile

They throw the rice

I catch her eye

as the rain starts comin' down

she takes my hand says daddy don't be sad 'cause

I know momma's watchin' now

And there's holes in the floor of Heaven

and her tears are pourin down

that's how you know she's watchin'

wishin' she could be here now

and sometimes when I'm lonely

I remember she can see

there's holes in the floor of Heaven

and she's watchin' over you and me

Watchin' over you and me

Watchin' over you and me

Watchin' over you and me

It used to be us and them

And you and me

And now we cant reach our potential without a common enemy

A real war to fight against

Instead of our petty disagreements

How can I rationalise My life suring wartime lie??

A call to action and a reaction

Taking our lives in our own hands

Instead of sitting around and talking 'bout the same old shi**y bands

But war is going on right now

and Im not doing anything about it

Without a crowd Im not so loud I cant do anything myself

And thats just another lie

Life during wartime - Pinhead Gunpowder (covered by Billie Joe - Green Day)

Words get trapped in my mind

Im sorry I dont take the time to feel the way I do

Cus the first day you came into my life

My time ticks around you

But then I need your voice

As a key to unlock all the love thats trapped in me

So tell me when its time

To say I love you

All I want is you to understand

That when I take your hand its cus I want to

We are all born in a world of doubt

But theres no doubt

I've figured out I love you

I feel lonely for

All the losers that will never take the time to say

What is really on their mind instead they just hide away

And yet they'll never have

Someone like you to guide them and help along the way

So tell me when its time to say I love you

So tell me when its time to say I love you

When its time - Green Day

Well I guess I should confess that I am starting to get old

All the latest music fads all passed my by and left me cold

All the kids are talking slag I wont pretend to understand

All my friends are getting married, morgages and pension plans

And its obvious my angry adolesent days are done

And im happy and im settled in the person I've become

But that doesnt mean Im settled up and sitting down the game

Time may change a lot but some things they stay the same

I wont sit down

I wont shut up

And most of all I will not grow up

I wont sit down

I wont shut up

And most of all I will not grow up

Oh maturity's a wrapped up package deal or so it seems

And ditching teenage fantasy means ditching all your dreams

All your friends and peers and family solemly tell you you will

Have to grow up be an adult, yea bebored and unforfilled

And noones yet explained to me exactly whats so great

About slaving 50 years away on something that you hate

Look Im meekly shuffling down the path of mediocrity

Well if thats your road then take it but its not the road for me

I wont sit down

I wont shut up

And most of all I will not grow up

I wont sit down

I wont shut up

And most of all I will not grow up

Well if all you wanna do with your life is just photosynthesize

Then you deserve every hour of the sleepless nights

That you waist wondering when your gunna die

I wont sit down

I wont shut up

And most of all I will not grow up

I wont sit down

I wont shut up

And most of all I will not grow up

Photosynthesis - Frank Turner

Love em :D

People try to put us d-down (Talkin' 'bout my generation)

Just because we get around (Talkin' 'bout my generation)

Things they do look awful c-c-cold (Talkin' 'bout my generation)

I hope I die before I get old (Talkin' 'bout my generation)

This is my generation

Why don't you all f-fade away (Talkin' 'bout my generation)

And don't try to dig what we all s-s-say (Talkin' 'bout my generation)

I'm just talkin' 'bout my g-g-g-generation (Talkin' 'bout my generation)

This is my generation

This is my generation, baby

Why don't you all f-fade away (Talkin' 'bout my generation)

This is my generation

This is my generation, baby

People try to put us d-down (Talkin' 'bout my generation)

Just because we g-g-get around (Talkin' 'bout my generation)

Things they do look awful c-c-cold (Talkin' 'bout my generation)

Yeah, I hope I die before I get old (Talkin' 'bout my generation)

This is my generation

great thread.

My ultimate all time favourite....makes me cry without fail!

Bette Midler - Wind beneath my wings

http://www.youtube.c...h?v=c9ZMDPf9hZw

Can't listen to this song as my grandad used to sing it at family parties, shame coz I love it.

Love the words in this:-

We Weren't Born To Follow lyrics

Songwriters: Bon Jovi, Jon; Sambora, Richie;

This one goes out to the man who mines for miracles

This one goes out to the ones in need

This one goes out to the sinner and the cynical

This ain't about no apology

This road was paved by the hopeless and the hungry

This road was paved by the winds of change

Walking beside the guilty and the innocent

How will you raise your hand when they call your name?

Yeah, yeah, yeah

We weren't born to follow

Come on and get up off your knees

When life is a bitter pill to swallow

You gotta hold on to what you believe

Believe that the sun will shine tomorrow

And that your saints and sinners bleed

We weren't born to follow

You gotta stand up for what you believe

Let me hear you say yeah, yeah, yeah, oh yeah

This one's about anyone who does it differently

This one's about the one who cusses and spits

This ain't about our livin' in a fantasy

This ain't about givin' up or givin' in

Yeah, yeah, yeah

We weren't born to follow

Come on and get up off your knees

When life is a bitter pill to swallow

You gotta hold on to what you believe

Believe that the sun will shine tomorrow

And that your saints and sinners bleed

We weren't born to follow

You gotta stand up for what you believe

Let me hear you say yeah, yeah, yeah, oh yeah

Let me hear you say yeah, yeah, yeah, oh yeah

We weren't born to follow

Come on and get up off your knees

When life is a bitter pill to swallow

You gotta hold on to what you believe

Believe that the sun will shine tomorrow

And that your saints and sinners bleed

We weren't born to follow

You gotta stand up for what you believe

Let me hear you say yeah, yeah, yeah, oh yeah

Let me hear you say yeah, yeah, yeah, oh yeah

We weren't born to follow, oh yeah

(Yeah, yeah, yeah, oh yeah)

We weren't born to follow, oh yeah

(Yeah, yeah, yeah, oh yeah)

This one was our wedding song for our first dance:-

I'll be there for you

Chorus

I'll be there for you

These five words I swear to you

When you breathe I want to be the air for you

I'll be there for you

I'd live and I'd die for you

Steal the sun from the sky for you

Words can't say what a love can do

I'll be there for you

And my all time fave:-

Livin' On A Prayer lyrics

Songwriters: Bongiovi, Jon; Sambora, Richard; Child, Desmond;

Tommy used to work on the docks

Union's been on strike, he's down on his luck

It's tough, so tough

Gina works the diner all day

Working for her man, she brings home her pay

For love, mmm, for love

She says we've got to hold on to what we've got

It doesn't make a difference if we make it or not

We got each other and that's a lot

For love we'll give it a shot!

Oh, we're half way there

Oh oh, livin' on a prayer

Take my hand, we'll make it I swear

Oh oh, livin' on a prayer

Tommy's got his six string in hock

Now he's holding in what he used to make it talk

So tough, mmm, it's tough

Gina dreams of running away

When she cries in the night, Tommy whispers

"Baby it's okay, someday"

We gotta hold on to what we've got

It doesn't make a difference if we make it or not

We got each other and that's a lot

For love we'll give it a shot!

Oh, we're half way there

Oh oh, livin' on a prayer

Take my hand, we'll make it I swear

Oh oh, livin' on a prayer

Livin' on a prayer!

We gotta hold on ready or not

You live for the fight when it's all that you've got

Whoa, we're half way there

Whoa oh, livin' on a prayer

Take my hand and we'll make it I swear

Whoa oh, livin' on a prayer

Whoa, we're half way there

Whoa oh, livin' on a prayer

Take my hand and we'll make it I swear

Whoa oh, livin' on a prayer

Whoa, we're half way there

Whoa oh, livin' on a prayer

Take my hand and we'll make it I swear

Whoa oh, livin' on a prayer

Basically I love all Bon Jovi songs! xx:D

These lyrics mean a lot to me for some reason - my husband leaves the room when I play this :blink: he is strictly a rock/metal fan with no exceptions :)

Morningside - Neil Diamond

The old man died

And no one cried

They simply turned away

And when he died

He left a table made of nails and pride

And with his hands he carved these words inside

"For my children"

Morning light

Morning bright

I spent the night

With dreams that make you weep

Morning time

Wash away the sadness from these eyes of mine

For I recall the words the old man signed

"For my children"

And the legs were shaped with his hands

And the top made of oaken wood

And the children sat around this table

Touched with their laughter

Ah, and that was good

Morningside

An old man died

And no one cried

He surely died alone

And truth is sad

For not a child would claim the gift he had

The words he carved became his epitaph

"For my children"

This Romeo is bleedin'

But you can't see his blood

It's nothing but some feelings

That this old dog kicked up

It's been rainin' since you left me

Now I'm drownin' in the flood

You see I've always been a fighter

But without you I'll give up

I can't sing a love song

Like the way it's meant to be

I guess I'm not that good anymore

But that's just me

I will love you baby

Always

And I'll be there forever and a day

Always

Now your pictures that you left behind

Are just memories of a different life

Some that made us laugh, some made us cry

One that made you have to say goodbye

What I'd give to run my fingers through your hair

Touch your lips and hold you near

When you say your prayers understand

I've made mistakes, I'm just a man

When he holds you close, he pulls you near

When he says the words you've been needin' to hear

I wish I was him with these words of mine

To say to you till the end of time

That I will love you baby

Always

And I'll be there forever and a day

Always

If you told me to cry for you, I could

If you told me to die for you, I would

Take a look at my face

There's no price I won't pay

To say these words to you

I will love you baby

Always

And I'll be there forever and a day

Always

I'll be there till the stars don't shine

Till the heavens burst and words don't rhyme

And I know when I die you'll be on my mind

And I'll love you always

I have 2

Simple man ... i like the shinedown version but i think the original is Skynyrd ??

My mama told me when I was young

Said sit beside me my only son

And listen closely to what I say

And if you do this it'll help you some sunny day

Oh, yeah it will

Oh, take your time, don't live too fast

Troubles will come and they will pass

You'll find a woman and you'll find love

And don't forget that there is a someone up above

And be a simple kind of man

And be something you'll love and understand

Baby be a simple kind of man

Oh, won't you do this for me son if you can?

Then you can

Don't get your lust from the rich man's gold

All that you need now is in your soul

And you can do this, oh baby if you try

All that I want from you my son is to be satisfied

And be a simple kind of man

And be something you'll love and understand

Baby be a simple kind of man

Oh, won't you do this for me son if you can?

If you can

Oh, don't you worry, you'll find yourself

Follow your heart and nothing else

And you can do this, oh baby if you try

All that I want from you my son is to be satisfied

And be a simple kind of man

Be something you'll love and understand

Baby be a simple kind of man

Oh, won't you do this for me son if you can?

So baby be a simple, be a simple man

Oh, won't you do this for me son if you can?

second one is

Sarah Mclachlin arms of an angel

Spend all your time waiting for that second chance

For the break that will make it ok

There's always some reason to feel “not good enough�

And it's hard at the end of the day

I need some distraction, oh beautiful release

Memories seep from my veins

They may be empty and weightless, and maybe

I'll find some peace tonight

In the arms of an Angel, fly away from here

From this dark, cold hotel room, and the endlessness that you fear

You are pulled from the wreckage of your silent reverie

You're in the arms of an Angel; may you find some comfort here

So tired of the straight line, and everywhere you turn

There's vultures and thieves at your back

The storm keeps on twisting, you keep on building the lies

That you make up for all that you lack

It don't make no difference, escaping one last time

It's easier to believe

In this sweet madness, oh this glorious sadness

That brings me to my knees

In the arms of an Angel, far away from here

From this dark, cold hotel room, and the endlessness that you fear

You are pulled from the wreckage of your silent reverie

In the arms of an Angel; may you find some comfort here

There is a star that lights the road

Will it take me to the end well I don't know

For one last time

I'll take this ride

And just drive

I wanna be the only one to make it to the light

Take it to the edge where I have died a thousand times

And maybe I could be the one to ride in to the setting sun tonight

And just drive

Breathing out I breath it in

Broken down but I will live to fight again

For one last time

I'll take this ride

And just drive

I wanna be the only one to make it to the light

Take it to the edge where I have died a thousand times

And maybe I could be the one to ride in to the setting sun tonight

Just drive

There is a star that lights the road

Will it take me to the end well I don't know

I wanna be the only one to make it to the light

Take it to the edge where I have died a thousand times

And maybe I could be the one to ride in to the setting sun tonight

Just drive

Consider this: 92% of the world's population feel that their lives could be better--- what about you?

If you could do anything, anything at all, what would you do? What are you doing now?

Imagine that you could live your life knowing that it could not be better and never feeling that you would rather be doing something else, be somewhere else, or be someone else.

Now consider this: some people actually live that way --- and so could you.

Contemplate this: What if 90% of the problems you encountered in your life were mere illusions and only existed in your mind?

In your everyday life whenever something annoys you, stresses you, makes you mad, or makes you sad, consider if that something really matters.

Will you even remember how you felt in one day, one week, one month, one year, or what about in ten years?

So when the people you work for pressure you, and fail to understand you, does it really matter?

And when they call you on the phone, screaming and yelling, does it matter and should you really allow that to influence your life?

It's all about choices.

This is from Barcode Brothers - Ambient. Awesome song: http://www.youtube.c...h?v=4No2J1V3wWc
