This from Reba and Kenny to remind us all that sometimes we need to protect what we have from ourselves... Every Other Weekend Every Other Weekend Reba McEntire and Kenny Chesney
(Reba) Every Other Friday It's toys and clothes and backpacks Is everybody in? Ok lets go see dad Same time in the same spot Corner of the same old parking lot Half the hugs and kisses There are always sad We trade a couple words and looks and kids again Every Other Weekend
(Kenny) Every Other Weekend Very few exceptions I pick up the love we made in both my arms It's movies on the sofa Grilled cheese and cut the crust off "But that's not the way mom makes it daddy" breaks my heart I miss everything I use to have with her again Every Other Weekend
(Kenny) But I can't tell her I love her
(Reba) I can't tell him I love him
(Kenny) Cause there's too many questions and
(Both) Ears in the car
(Reba) So I don't tell him I miss him
(Kenny) I don't tell her I need her
(Both) She's(He's) over me, that's where we are
(Kenny) So we're as close as we might ever be again
(Both) Every Other Weekend
(Reba) Every Other Saturday First thing in the mornin' I turn the TV on to make the quiet go away I know why, but I don't know why We ever let this happen Fallin' for forever was a big mistake There's so much not to do, and all day not to do it in Every Other Weekend
(Kenny) Every Other Sunday I empty out my backseat While my children hug their mother in the parking lot We don't touch We don't talk much Maybe goodbye to each other Then she drives away with every piece of heart I've got I reconvince myself we did the right thing Every Other Weekend
(Kenny) So I can't tell her I love her
(Reba) I can't tell him I love him
(Kenny) Cause there's too many questions and
(Both) Ears in the car
(Reba) So I don't tell him I miss him
(Kenny) I don't tell her I need her
(Both) She's(He's) over me, that's where we are
(Kenny) So we're as close as we might ever be again
(Both) Every Other Weekend
(Kenny) Yeah for fifteen minutes we're a family again
(Reba) God I wish that he was still with me again
(Both) Every Other Weekend

This from Casting Crowns to remind us where our real strength comes from... Praise You In This Storm I was sure by now God you would have reached down And wiped our tears away Stepped in and saved the day But once again, I say “Amen”, and it’s still raining
As the thunder rolls I barely hear Your whisper through the rain “I’m with you” And as You mercy falls I raise my hands and praise the God who gives And takes away
I’ll praise You in this storm And I will lift my hands For You are who You are No matter where I am Every tear I’ve cried You hold in Your hand You never left my side And though my heart is torn I will praise You in this storm
I remember when I stumbled in the wind You heard my cry You raised me up again My strength is almost gone How can I carry on If I can’t find You
As the thunder rolls I barely hear You whisper through the rain “I’m with you” And as Your mercy falls I raise my hands and praise the God who gives And takes away
I’ll praise You in this storm And I will lift my hands For You are who You are No matter where I am Every tear I’ve cried You hold in Your hand You never left my side And though my heart is torn I will praise You in this storm
I lift my eyes unto the hills Where does my help come from? My help comes from the Lord The Maker of Heaven and Earth
I’ll praise You in this storm And I will lift my hands For You are who You are No matter where I am Every tear I’ve cried You hold in Your hand You never left my side And though my heart is torn I will praise You in this storm

In honor of those fighting for recovery. "Make You Feel My Love" by Adele When the rain Is blowing in your face And the whole world Is on your case I could offer you A warm embrace To make you feel my love When the evening shadows And the stars appear And there is no one there To dry your tears I could hold you For a million years To make you feel my love I know you Haven't made Your mind up yet But I would never Do you wrong I've known it From the moment That we met No doubt in my mind Where you belong I'd go hungry I'd go black and blue I'd go crawling Down the avenue No, there's nothing That I wouldn't do To make you feel my love The storms are raging On the rolling sea And on the highway of regret Though winds of change Are throwing wild and free You ain't seen nothing Like me yet I could make you happy Make your dreams come true Nothing that I wouldn't do Go to the ends Of the Earth for you To make you feel my love

This from Susan Ashton to remind us to keep moving forward rather than allow ourselves to get lost in our self-pity. Walk On Some find their solace in a bottle of gin Some find it still better when their horse comes in It's a way to deal when life ain't grand You just a-pack-it-up, hang your head and fold your hands.
Hmmm, hmmm.
She worked all day long on a street named Despair In a town with no pity, she was going nowhere Well, funny how her heart, well, it grew colder and colder With the weight of the world crashing down on her shoulder.
But when the going gets tough and the tough are long gone, just.
Chorus: Walk on, walk on, walk on, walk on Walk on, walk on, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah Walk on, walk on, walk on, walk on Walk on, walk on, yeah, yeah, yeah!
You can take your words made of psycho-babble I don't need no shrink to see my life's unraveled Pay you a mountain of gold to candy coat me lies I'm at the end of my rope, time I realize.
That when the going gets tough and the tough are long gone, just Walk on, walk on, walk on, walk on, Who-oh!
Chorus: Walk on, walk on, walk on, walk on Walk on, walk on, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah Walk on, walk on, walk on, walk on Walk on, walk on, yeah, yeah, yeah!
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah! yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah! yeah, yeah!
Well, I know we ain't seeing the best of times And I long stopped dreaming those crazy dreams of mine These days get so long, and my heart grows weak And honey, we ain't living on no easy street.
But when the going gets tough and the tough are long gone It's just a-you-and-me, baby, left to walk on!
Chorus: Walk on, walk on, walk on, walk on Walk on, walk on, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah Walk on, walk on, walk on, walk on Walk on, walk on, yeah, yeah, yeah!
Chorus: Walk on, walk on, walk on, walk on Walk on, walk on, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah Walk on, walk on, walk on, walk on Walk on, walk on, yeah, yeah, yeah!... Note: This one is on Rhapsody Music. Your pop-up blocker may stop it from playing. It should prompt for an over-ride.

I used to sing this one to Skald when he was still fogging.
Hot N' Cold - Katy Perry
You change your mind Like a girl changes clothes Yeah you, PMS Like a b**** I would know
And you always think Always speak Crypticly
I should know That you're no good for me
Cause you're hot then you're cold You're yes then you're no You're in and you're out You're up and you're down You're wrong when it's right It's black and it's white We fight, we break up We kiss, we make up
You, You don't really want to stay, no You, but you don't really want to go-o You're hot then you're cold You're yes then you're no You're in and you're out You're up and you're down
We used to be Just like twins So in sync The same energy Now's a dead battery Used to laugh bout nothing Now your plain boring
I should know that you're not gonna change
Cause you're hot then you're cold You're yes then you're no You're in and you're out You're up and you're down You're wrong when it's right It's black and it's white We fight, we break up We kiss, we make up
You, You don't really want to stay, no You, but you don't really want to go-o You're hot then you're cold You're yes then you're no You're in and you're out You're up and you're down
Someone call the doctor Got a case of a love bi-polar Stuck on a roller coaster Can't get off this ride
You change your mind Like a girl changes clothes
Cause you're hot then you're cold You're yes then you're no You're in and you're out You're up and you're down You're wrong when it's right It's black and it's white We fight, we break up We kiss, we make up
You're hot then you're cold You're yes then you're no You're in and you're out You're up and you're down You're wrong when it's right It's black and it's white We fight, we break up We kiss, we make up
You, you don't really want to stay, no You, but you don't really want to go-o You're hot then you're cold You're yes then you're no You're in and you're out You're up and you're down

This song rocks!
"Gives You Hell" - All American Rejects
I wake up every evening, with a big smile on my face And it never feels out of place
And your still probably working at a 9 to 5 pace I wonder how bad that tastes
When you see my face Hope it gives you hell Hope it gives you hell When you walk my way Hope it gives you hell Hope it gives you hell
Now where's your picket fence love And where's that shiny car, And did it ever get you far
You've never seem so tense love I've never seen you fall so hard, Do you even know where you are
And truth be told I miss you And truth be told I'm lying
When you see my face Hope it gives you hell Hope it gives you hell When you walk my way Hope it gives you hell Hope it gives you hell If you find a man that's worth a damn and treats you well Then he's a fool, you're just as well, hope it gives you hell
Hope it gives you hell
Tomorrow you'll be thinking to yourself Yeah, Where'd it all go wrong, the list goes on and on
And truth be told I miss you And truth be told I'm lying
When you see my face Hope it gives you hell Hope it gives you hell When you walk my way Hope it gives you hell Hope it gives you hell If you find a man that's worth a damn and treats you well Then he's a fool, you're just as well, hope it gives you hell
Now you'll never see, what you've done to me You can take back your memories they're no good to me And here's all your lies, You can look me in the eyes With that sad sad look that you wear so well
When you see my face Hope it gives you hell Hope it gives you hell When you walk my way Hope it gives you hell Hope it gives you hell If you find a man that's worth a damn and treats you well Then he's a fool, you're just as well, hope it gives you hell
When you see my face Hope it gives you hell Hope it gives you hell When you walk my way Hope it gives you hell Hope it gives you hell When you hear this song and sing along, oh you'll never tell Then you're the fool, I'm just as well Hope it gives you hell When you hear this song I hope that it will give you hell And when you sing along I hope that it puts you through hell

There's always room for Kate!
It doesn't hurt me. Do you want to feel how it feels? Do you want to know that it doesn't hurt me? Do you want to hear about the deal that I'm making? You, its you and me.
And if I only could, Id make a deal with god, And I'd get him to swap our places, Be running up that road, Be running up that hill, Be running up that building. If I only could, oh...
You don't want to hurt me, But see how deep the bullet lies. Unaware I'm tearing you asunder. Ooh, there is thunder in our hearts.
Is there so much hate for the ones we love? Tell me, we both matter, don't we? You, it's you and me. Its you and me wont be unhappy.
And if I only could, Id make a deal with god, And I'd get him to swap our places, Be running up that road, Be running up that hill, Be running up that building, Say, if I only could, oh...
You, It's you and me, It's you and me wont be unhappy.
C'mon, baby, c'mon darling, Let me steal this moment from you now. C'mon, angel, c'mon, c'mon, darling, Lets exchange the experience, oh...
And if I only could, I'd make a deal with god, And I'd get him to swap our places, Be running up that road, Be running up that hill, With no problems.
And if I only could, I''d make a deal with god, And I'd get him to swap our places, Be running up that road, Be running up that hill, With no problems.
And if I only could, I'd make a deal with god, And I'd get him to swap our places, Be running up that road, Be running up that hill, With no problems.
If I only could Be running up that hill With no problems...
I watch, and am as a sparrow alone upon the house top.

If you guys are gonna add songs here, at least link the songs so folks can hear what they sound like. Frankly, some of the lyrics are only memorable for a line or two.
This is not an indictment of a specific song nor of a genre of music, since until we can HEAR the music we have no idea what type it even is...
So, if the song is available somewhere, link it so we can HEAR the song. Don't bother to link to a subscription service like iTunes, Rhapsody, etc, since most folks won't be able to access what you pulled up under your account. Test your links before you hit <SUBMIT>. Also, don't link to down-loadable files on a peer to peer sharing site. That will get us all in trouble.
I also would ask that if you quote lyrics here that you indicate that they are a quote. Since lyrics are available in so many places on the web it is easy to copy and paste, but I have found that many of the sites have lyrics that are posted by users and are not always accurate. So before I post the lyrics, I read them while listening to the song and have found errors even in the few I have posted.
Songs without music are merely poems and while maybe beautifully written, thought provoking and expressive of our feelings are not really songs at all. Only when they are sung with music do they become songs.
So post anything you think is of value, but let us hear the song and be sure to check the lyrics for accuracy before posting.
WORDS+MUSIC=SONG
So SONG-MUSIC=WORDS
And we have plenty of words around here...
Just read any of MY posts... :crosseyedcrazy:
I can't tell any of you what or how to post but I did start this thread and ask that it be kept to songs and not just lyrics.

This song reminds me of our early recovery... Let's Be Us Again by Lonestar The great part is that we are "us" again now...Only better! Tell me what I have to do tonight 'Cause I'd do anything to make it right Let's be us again
I'm sorry for the way I lost my head I don't know why I said the things I said Let's be us again
Here I stand With everything to lose And all I know is I don't want to ever see the end Baby please, I'm reaching out for you Won't you open up your heart and let me come back in Let's be us again
Oh us again
Look at me, I'm way past pride Isn't there some way that we can try To be us again Even if it takes a while I'll wait right here until I see that smile That says we're us again
Here I stand With everything to lose And all I know is I don't want to ever see the end Baby please, I'm reaching out for you Won't you open up your heart and let me come back in Let's be us
Baby baby what would I do I can't imagine life without you
Here I stand With everything to lose And all I know is I don't want to ever see the end Baby please, I'm reaching out for you Won't you open up your heart and let me come back in
Oh, here I am I'm reaching out for you So won't you open up your heart and let me come back in Let's be us again
Oh let's be us again How'd I do, Mark? Do I get an "A" for song posting? Mrs. W

Just for fun and a reminder that we agreed to give some things up when we got married... Remember the line "forsaking all others" in your vows? From The Oak Ridge Boys Hard to Be Cool In A Minivan Sittin’ at a red light, down around Sunset A girl pulled up beside me in a candy-apple red Corvette She pulled down her shades, gave me a wink I gave her a little smile back Then she laughed as she hit the gas I remembered where I was at
Chorus (‘Cause) It’s hard to be cool when you’re behind the wheel Of an eight passenger automobile In a big bubble, cruisin’ down the street With Barney blarin’ and a baby seat Hey it can be done, but I’m tellin’ you man It’s hard to be cool in a minivan.
I used to have a souped-up hotrod, Man I spared no costs 284, four-on-the-floor, headers and dual-exhaust About the time the family came, well, that’s the first thing that went The preacher said, “for better or worse,” Now I know what he meant
Chorus (‘Cause) It’s hard to be cool when you’re behind the wheel Of an eight passenger automobile In a big bubble, cruisin’ down the street With Barney blarin’ and a baby seat Hey it can be done, but I’m tellin’ you man It’s hard to be cool in a minivan.
Now, I wouldn’t change my life a bit I’m a lucky man I know Just wish my wife and kids could fit In a ’67 GTO.
Chorus (‘Cause) It’s hard to be cool when you’re behind the wheel Of an eight passenger automobile In a big bubble, cruisin’ down the street With Barney blarin’ and a baby seat Hey it can be done, but I’m tellin’ you man It’s hard to be cool in a minivan.
Come on boys, Can I hear an amen It’s hard to be cool in a minivan.

The past three months, I've downloaded two possible ringtones for my phone. I'm currently using "Bargain" by The Who. The lyrics to that tune is the fourth post in this thread, in case anyone's interested. It's a positive song. The other song is if everything does a swirly. It's kinda nasty, but sums things up for many here, unfortunately. "One More Time" by Lynyrd Skynyrd "One More Time" Lyrics by Ronnie Van Zant How can you stand there smilin' After all you've done You know it seems to make you happy When you've hurt someone Twice before you fooled me With your deceivin' and lyin' Come in and close the door One more time, one more time Yeah you've been gone so long No one knows where And you say that you still love me Then show me you care 'Cause you got what it takes sweet mama To make a man feel fine So I'll take the word of a liar One more time, one more time Girl you've got me hungry Losin' my mind I know I'm playin' with fire Get burned everytime Yes I'm a fool for you baby I can't deny But I got to have your sweet love One more time, one more time Girl you've got me hungry Losin' my mind I know I'm playin' with fire I get burned everytime Yes I'm a fool for you mama I can't deny But I got to have your sweet love One more time, one more time Yes I'm her fool once more I can read her brown eyes But when the rooster crows tomorrow Well its her turn to cry I'm headed down that old road She lost her free ride So tonight I'll take what I paid for One more time, one more time One more time

"Broken" - Lifehouse The broken clock is a comfort, it helps me sleep tonight Maybe it can stop tomorrow from stealing all my time I am here still waiting though I still have my doubts I am damaged at best, like you've already figured out
I'm falling apart, I'm barely breathing With a broken heart that's still beating In the pain there is healing In your name I find meaning So I'm holdin' on, I'm holdin' on, I'm holdin' on I'm barely holdin' on to you
The broken locks were a warning you got inside my head I tried my best to be guarded, I'm an open book instead And I still see your reflection inside of my eyes That are looking for purpose, they're still looking for life
I'm falling apart, I'm barely breathing With a broken heart that's still beating In the pain is the healing In your name I find meaning So I'm holdin' on (I'm still holdin'), I'm holdin' on (I'm still holdin'), I'm holdin' on (I'm still holdin') I'm barely holdin' on to you
I'm hangin' on another day Just to see what you will throw my way And I'm hangin' on to the words you say You said that I will, will be ok
The broken lights on the freeway left me here alone I may have lost my way now, having forgot my way home
I'm falling apart, I'm barely breathing With a broken heart that's still beating In the pain, there is healing In your name, I find meaning So I'm holdin' on (I'm still holdin'), I'm holdin' on (I'm still holdin'), I'm holdin' on (I'm still holdin') I'm barely holdin' on to you I'm holdin' on (I'm still holdin'), I'm holdin' on (I'm still holdin'), I'm baely holdin' on to you

OK. So I've been slackin'... Here's a real moldy oldie to cry by... From The Animals: Bring It On Home If you ever change your mind About leavin', leavin' me behind Oh, oh, bring it to me Bring your sweet lovin' Bring it on home to me, oh yeah
You know I laughed when you left But now I know I've only hurt myself Oh, oh, bring it to me Bring your sweet lovin' Bring it on home to me, yeah ...
I'll give you jewellery, money too And that's not all, all I'll do for you Oh, oh, bring it to me Bring your sweet lovin' Bring it on home to me, yeah...
You know I'll always be your slave Till I'm dead and buried in my grave Oh, oh, bring it to me Bring your sweet lovin' Bring it on home to me, yeah ...
If you ever change your mind About leavin', leavin' me behind Oh, oh, bring it to me Bring your sweet lovin' Bring it on home to me, yeah ...

I know my mullet will be showing after this one... Warrant - HeavenI've got a picture of your house And you're standing by the door It's black and white and faded, It's looking pretty worn. See the factory that i worked Silhouetted in the back. Memories are grey, but man they're really coming back. I don't need to be the king of the world As long as i'm the hero of this little girl
Chorus: Heaven isn't too far away Closer to it everyday And no matter what your friends might say
How i love the way you move And the sparkle in your eyes There's a color deep inside the night like a blue suburban sky When i come home late at night And you're in bed asleep Now i wrap my arms around you so i can feel you breathe
I don't need to be a superman As long as you will always be my biggest fan
Chorus: Heaven isn't too far away Closer to it everyday And no matter what your friends might say We'll find our way Now the lights are going out, Along the boulevard Memories come rushing back and makes it pretty hard I've got nowhere left to go And no one really cares I don't know what to do But im never giving up on you Want2Stay

Here is one that really gets me...it is about betrayal, but not necessarily affairs, though it can certainly be applied to how the BS feel. At least to how I feel.... There are a few lines in this song that really hit home. I've highlighted them: "Kristy, are you doing ok?" by The Offspring There's a moment in time And it's stuck in my mind Way back, when we were just kids Cause your eyes told the tale Of an act of betrayal I knew that somebody did Oh, waves of time Seem to wash away The scenes of our crimes For you this never endsCan you stay strong? Can you go on? Kristy are you doing okay? A rose that won't bloom Winter's kept you Dont waste your whole life trying To get back what was taken awayThough the marks on your dress Had been neatly repressed I knew that something was wrong And I should have spoke out And I'm so sorry now I didn't know Cause we were so young Oh, clouds of time Seem to rain on Innocence left behind And it never goes awayCan you stay strong? Can you go on? Kristy are you doing okay? A rose that wont bloom Winter's kept you Dont waste your whole life trying To get back what was taken away Oh, clouds of time Seem to rain on Innocence left behind And it never goes away Can you stay strong? Can you go on? Kristy are you doing okay? A rose that won't bloom Winter's kept you Dont waste your whole life trying To get back what was taken away Don't waste your whole life trying To get back what was taken away

This song carried me through my darkest hours when I had absolutely no one. I begged Jesus to forgive me for my infidelity and this song I felt was written for me during that time. It still brings tears to my eyes. High Flight Society "Sweet Redeemer" I only wanna stand up, move on Stand up and know I’m redeemed One last time is one more lie that I tell myself As I’m giving in I can feel the shame from these broken claims God forgive me for pushing you aside Speak to me now Bring me home Speak to me now I only wanna stand up, move on Stand up and know I’m redeemed One last try is all I’ve got left inside of me Without you by my side I have tried in vein to hold fast my claims God forgive me for pushing you aside Sweet Redeemer Sweet Redeemer Speak to me speak to me Sweet Redeemer www.youtube.com/?v=O32pJX-tZqs - 62k - Cached
