The following are excerpts from songs that move me:
"This just might hurt a little
love hurts sometimes when you do it right
Don't be affraid of a little bit of pain
pleasure is just on the other side"
-Save Room by John Legend
"A waltz when she walks in the room
She pulls back the hair from her face
She turns to the window to sway in the moonlight
Even her shadow has grace
A waltz for the girl out of reach
She lifts her hands up to the sky
She moves with the music
The song is her lover
The melody's making her cry
So she dances
In and out of the crowd like a glance
This romance is
From afar calling me silently"
-So She Dances by Josh Groban
"Don't give up
It's just the weight of the world
When your heart's heavy I
I will lift it for you "
-You Are Loved (Don't Give Up) by Josh Groban
"You've got this look I can't describe
You make me feel I'm alive
When everything else is a fake
Without a doubt you're by my side
Heaven has been way too long
Can't find the words to write this song"
- Like A Star by Corrine Bailey Rae
"Cause you can't jump the track
We're like cars on a cable and life's like an hourglass glued to the table,
No one can find the rewind button girl
So just cradle your head in your hands.
And breathe, just breathe, whoa breathe just breathe"
- Breathe (2:00 am) by Anna Nalick
"My life's a twisting roller coaster on the run
I get no warning when the bad turns are gonna come
It's a journey with no certainty
so I'll make my peace with whatever will be
That's how life goes
That's how it goes
So you live and you learn to let go
That's how life goes
That's how it goes
So in good and in bad you let go
That's how it goes
I could wonder what my life might have been
had I chosen to float down the other stream
Though some days felt like a slap in the face
there is nothing in my past I'd erase
The good days are enough to keep me strong
So I'll make my peace with whatever may come
That's how life goes...
I will let go of the dark thoughts that were ruling me
I will let go of my worries
I will live by the dreams that have been driving me
I'll try to be the best I can be"
-That's How Life Goes by Janita
"What you do is crazy babe
Not like you belong in an asylum
Crazy babe,
Like the sun in the morning
And the moon at night
Like the rain falling from the sky
Like the trees growing from the ground
I'm astounded babe
By your love for me
And your touching me
And your trust in me"
- Not Like Crazy by Jill Scott
"I remember the very first day that I saw him
I found myself immediately intrigued by him
It's almost like I knew this man from another life
Like back then maybe I was his husband maybe he was my wife
And even,things I don't like about him are fine with me
Cause it's not hard for me to understand him cause he's so much like me
And it's truly my pleasure to share his company
And I know that it's God's gift to breathe
The air he breathes"
- The Truth by India Arie.

Strangely I feel a connection with you babe
Oddly enough I crave for it to remain purely
More authentic than I've been used to
Surely this can't be something that's taboo cause you
Got it like I like it and I feel the need to say
Baby it's forever and I really mean to
Make you feel as special as I see you baby
Never have I ever been around someone
Who makes life so free and life so fun
And as crazy as it may sound, I ain't joking baby
Cause when I'm in those arms of yours
I'm so gone
The things I like
Can't tell me it's not right
When I'm with you
I lose myself and no one
Can make me do
What I can't wait to do when I'm with you
WITH YOU - JANET JACKSON
So familiar
The situations linear
It's obvious I'm into ya,
I know you know I'm into ya
I know you know I'm what you were
Just never ever looking for
I'm what you call impossible
Or you could say a miracle
I'm in your system
You're in my wisdom
You are my partner
I am the mother
I'm the beginning
And you're the after
You hear the universe
Pulling us closer
Just a little bit
CLOSER - FLOETRY
The most fragile part of me,
Nurses our strongest connection.
You live in my memory.
With a philosophy,
That now offers me completion.
I’m so well.
And it’s strange to be.
I’m torn by misdirection.
You’re my ambassador.
You personify my admiration.
So beautiful.
I live for you.
As you live for me.
This is such a happy ever after.
You traveled miles,
Now we’re past the finishing line.
We’re starting on time.
My music wears your name,
If they knew where to look.
They’d find it.
You showed me.
I am I,
Because you be.
Forever.
So magnificent.
The most amazing story I ever told.
So much more to be written.
Thank you.
SOMETIMES U MAKE ME SMILE - FLOETRY
After a while you learn the subtle difference between holding a hand and chaining a soul.
And you learn that love doesn't mean leaning and company doesn't mean security.
And you begin to learn that kisses aren't contracts and presents aren't promises,
And you begin to accept your defeats with your head up and your eyes open, with the grace of an adult, and not the grief of a child,
And you learn to build all your roads on today because tomorrows grounds are too uncertain for plans.
After a while you learn that even sunshine burns if you get too much.
So plant your own garden and decorate your own soul, instead of waiting for someone to bring you flowers.
And you learn that you can really endure...
that you really are strong,
and you really do have worth.
And you learn and you learn...
with every good-bye you learn...
NOT SURE WHERE IT CAME FROM

Anon - i wish i know who you are, but thanks for the flattering compliments
SU - you HAVE to listen to the song in its entirety, it's absolutely beautiful
Blu!!! I'm back from hiatus! =)
You know I love song lyrics. Well, I love words, really. These are some awesome songs here. I love "Like a star" and "You are loved". Those are deeply beautiful songs that touch my heart.
What?! No "Come To Daddy" by Aphex Twin?! No "Happiness In Slavery" by Nine Inch Nails?! No "Heaven Knows I'm Miserable Now" by The Smiths?! No "Blasphemous Rumours" by Depeche Mode?! Jeez...people need educating! ;)
