Conqueror - nice, I'll let you join the band.<p>BH - some I cheat and look up, but sometimes it will hit me and I'll remember.
Here is the one you requested.<p>Jewel
Standing Still <p>Do you want me
Like I want you?
Or am I standing still
Beneath the darkened sky
Or am I standing still
With the scenery flying by
Or am I standing still
Out of the corner of my eye
Was that you
Passing my by<p>Mother's on the stoop
Boys in souped up coupes
On this hot summer night
Between fight and flight
Is the blind man's sight
And a choice that's right
I roll the window down
Feel like I'm
I'm gonna drown
In this strange town
Feel broken down
I feel broken down
Do you need me
Like I need you<p>Or am I standing still
Beneath the darkened sky
Or am I standing still
With the scenery flying by
Or am I standing still
Out of the corner of my eye
Was that you
Passing my by<p>A sweet sorrow is
The call tomorrow
A sweet sorrow is
The call tomorrow<p>Do you love me
Like I love you?<p>Or am I standing still
Beneath the darkened sky
Or am I standing still
With the scenery flying by
Or am I standing still
Out of the corner
Of my eye
Was that you
Passing me by?<p>Are you passing me by?
Passing me by
Do you want me?
Passing me by<p>Do you need me
Like I need you too
And do you want me
Like I want you?
Passing me by<p>Are you passing me by
Or am I standing still?<p>
Dancer,
It doesn't 'hit' me, and I did a search and couldn't find anything. Do you remember any more words?<p>I think tomorow I might feel Disco-y.<p>Elizabeth

And for todays selection..
(Elizabeth tosses her Liberache inspired cape to the audience.)<p>Gloria Gaynor - I Will Survive<p>At first i was afraid, i was petrified.
Kept thinking I could never live without you by my side. But then I spend so many nights thinking how you did me wrong and i grew strong and i learned how to get along. And so your back from outer space. I just walked in to find you here with that sad look upon your face. I should've changed that stupid lock i should've made you leave your key. If I'da known for just one second that you'd be back to bother me. <p>Go on now! GO! walk out that door. Just turn around cause your not welcome here anymore! Weren't you the one who tried to hurt me with goodbye? DId you think i'd crumble? DId you think I'd lay down and die? OH NO NOT I!! I will survive!! As long as i know how to love i know i will stay alive! I've got all my life to live, I've got all my love to give.<p>It took all the strength i had not to fall apart. Just tryin to mend the pieces of my broken heart. ANd i spend oh so many nights just feelin sorry for myself. I USED TO CRY! But now i hold my head up high! And you see me! SOmbody new! I'm not that chained up little girl whose still in love with you and so you felt like droppin in and just expect me to be free. Now i'm savin all my love for someone who's lovin me! <p>Go on now, GO! walk out the door. Just turn around now cause your not welcome anymore! Weren't you the one who tried to hurt me with goodbye? DId you think i'd crumble, did you think i'd lay down and die?!? oh no not I! I WILL SURVIVE! As long as i know how to love i know i'll stay alive! I've got all my life to live and all my love to give..

I love that song!<p>Unfortunately it became the anthem of my WH and out friends from Utah. So I'm experiencing mixed feelings..<p>Oh well, at least the memories are good. (WH was singing it on a stage drunk and making a total fool out of himself - not unlike what he's doing today, minus the drunk and song part......)<p>I Will Survive!

Supertramp, The Logical Song<p>When I was young, it seemed that life was so wonderful,
a miracle, oh it was beautiful, magical.
And all the birds in the trees, well they'd be singing so happily,
joyfully, playfully watching me.
But then they send me away to teach me how to be sensible,
logical, responsible, practical.
And they showed me a world where I could be so dependable,
clinical, intellectual, cynical.<p>There are times when all the world's asleep,
the questions run too deep
for such a simple man.
Won't you please, please tell me what we've learned
I know it sounds absurd
but please tell me who I am.<p>Now watch what you say or they'll be calling you a radical,
liberal, fanatical, criminal.
Won't you sign up your name, we'd like to feel you're
acceptable, respecable, presentable, a vegtable!<p>At night, when all the world's asleep,
the questions run so deep
for such a simple man.
Won't you please, please tell me what we've learned
I know it sounds absurd
but please tell me who I am.

Isn't funny how your taste in music changes and the songs you used to identify with you can't stand to hear anymore and a whole new crop comes to your awareness?<p>Get Gone by Ideal<p>Hey, come in here for a minute
Sit down
Come here, cuz we gotta talk, ok
Well, you just stay here for a little bit tonight
Man, I need to go to sleep
Yo, I want you to try to understand somethin', ok?
Now just listen<p>In the beginning you know I tried
To make it work for you and I
Seems like I was always by myself
Like you didn't never ever wanted help
The strain you put on me, you let me down
Can you tell me why after all I've done
For you and I, now I really hate to say it
But I gotta tell you something<p>Chorus:
I think I better leave (leave) you alone (alone)
So get yo' bags (yeah) and get the hell on
See becuz I don't want you no more (I don't want you no more)
I think you better leave (leave) me alone (alone)
So get yo' bags (yeah) get the hell on (get gone)
Because love ain't here no more.<p>I don't know if it hurts to hear me say all of these words
But then again, I guess by now I really don't care (See I've waited much too long)
Oh, always thought that it could work, thought it could be forever, you and me
Tell me what happened to us, Wait a minute, don't speak,
Right now all I want to do is see you leaving<p>Leave me alone (alone)
Get yo' bags (yeah) Get the hell on (oh oh)
Cuz I don't want you no more
Said I think I got to leave (leave) you alone (alone)
Get yo' bags (yeah) Get the hell on (get gone)
Cuz love ain't here no more<p>Bridge:
See I tried to do it right
Tried to make you see the light
All that I wanted, all that I needed was you in my life (was you in my life oooh)
Had me broke down and for what
Tricked so many times, forgot who the real me was
But it's all right, I said it's good, cuz I'm gettin' rid of you<p>Chorus:
I think you got to leave me alone (alone)
Get yo' bags (yeah) get the f**k on (get gone)
Becuz love don't want you no more (get gone)
Said I think you got to leave (leave) me alone (alone)
Get to steppin' (yeah) get the hell on (get gone)
WHOOOOO Love (love) ain't (ain't) here no more<p>Oh leave me alone (alone)
Get yo' bags, leave the keys
Cuz I don't want you no more
See I think you got to leave (leave) me alone (alone)
Get to steppin' (yeah) get gone (get gone)
Cuz love ain't here no more
I think you better get on (get on) get on (get on) get on (get on)
You ain't taking the Benz (get on) just get on (get on)<p> [img]images/icons/tongue.gif" border="0[/img] [img]images/icons/grin.gif" border="0[/img]

Sweet Surrender--Sarah McLachlan<p>It doesn't mean much
It doesn't mean anything at all
The life I've left behind me
Is a cold room
I've crossed the last line
From where I can't return
Where every step I took in faith
Betrayed me
And led me from my home<p>And sweet
Sweet surrender
Is all that I have to give<p>You take me in
No questions asked
You strip away the ugliness
That surrounds me
Are you an angel
Am I already that gone
I only hope
That I won't disappoint you
When I'm down here
On my knees<p>And sweet
Sweet
Sweet surrender
Is all that I have to give<p>Sweet
Sweet
Sweet surrender
Is all that I have to give<p>And I don't understand
By the touch of your hand
I would be the one to fall<p>I miss the little things
Oh I miss everything<p>It doesn't mean much
It doesn't mean anything at all
The life I left behind me
Is a cold room

Thank you, Conqueror.<p>I love that song, it moves me and tears me up inside.<p>I listen to and love all sorts of music. It's been a big part of my life for a very long time (H is a musician).<p>I think one of the main reasons I married him is I admired his artistic abilities. Sad there is another toxic side to that coin.

Angel - Sarah McLachlin<p>Spend all your time waiting
for that second chance
for a break that would make it okay
there's always one reason
to feel not good enough
and it's hard at the end of the day<p>I need some distraction
oh beautiful release
memory seeps from my veins
let me be empty
and weightless and maybe
I'll find some peace tonight<p>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 the angel
may you find some comfort there<p>So tired of the straight line
and everywhere you turn
there's vultures and thieves at your back
and the storm keeps on twisting
you keep on building the lie
that you make up for all that you lack
it don't make no difference
escaping one last time<p>it's easier to believe in this sweet madness oh
this glorious sadness that brings me to my knees<p>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 the angel
may you find some comfort there
you're in the arms of the angel
may you find some comfort here<p>Black & White - Sarah McLachlin<p>Unravel me
a distant cord
on the outside is forgotten
a constant need<p>To get along
and the animal awakens
and all I feel is black and white<p>The road is long
the memory slides
to the whole of my undoing
put aside
I put away
I push it back to get through each day
and all I feel is black and white
and I'm wound up small and tight
and I don't know who I am<p>Everybody loves you when you're easy
everybody hates when you're a bore
everyone is waiting for your entrance so
don't disappoint them<p>Unravel me
untie this chord
the very center of our union
is caving in
I can't endure
I am the archive of our failure<p>And all I feel is black and white
and I'm wound up small and tight
and I don't know who I am<p>Everybody loves you when you're easy
everybody hates when you're a bore
everyone is waiting for your entrance so
don't disappoint them<p>Everybody loves you when you're easy so
don't disappoint them<p>Don't disappoint them...<p>[ March 31, 2002: Message edited by: Resilient ]</p>

I'm Movin' On
By: Rascal Flatts<p>I've dealt with my ghosts and I've faced all my demons
Finally content with a past I regret
I've found you find strength in your moments of weakness
For once I'm at peace with myself
I've been burdened with blame, trapped in the past for too long
I'm Movin' On<p>I've lived in this place and I know all the faces
Each one is different, but they're always the same
They mean me no harm, but it's time that I face it
They'll never allow me to change
But I never dreamed home would end up where I don't belong
I'm Movin' On<p>Chorus:
I'm Movin on
At last I can see life has been patiently waiting for me
And I know there's no guarantees, but I'm not alone
There comes a time in everyones life
When all you can see are the years passin by
And I have made up my mind that those days are gone<p>I sold what I could and packed what I couldn't
Stopped to fill up on my way out of town
I've loved like I should, but lived like I shouldn't
I had to lose everything to find out
Maybe forgiveness will find me somewhere down this road
I'm Movin' On<p>I'm Movin' On<p>I'm Movin' On<p>And, if you can take it - how about another Sarah McLachlan song!! Her CD, "Mirrorball" has sustained me over these past months. Every song on there is so powerful!<p>One of my favs is "Hold On"<p>Hold on
Hold on to yourself
For this is gonna hurt like hell
Hold on
Hold on to yourself
You know that only time can tell <p>What is it in me that refuses to believe?
This isn't easier than the real thing
My love, you know that you're my best friend
You know I'd do anything for you
And my love, let nothing come between us
You know my love is strong and true
Am I in heaven here or am I in hell...at the crossroads I am standing<p>So now your sleeping peaceful
I lie awake and pray that you'll be strong tomorrow and we'll see another day
And we will praise it
I love the light that brings a smile across your face<p>Oh God, if you're out there won't you hear me?
I know that we've never talked before
Oh God, the man I love is leaving
Won't you take him when he comes to your door<p>Am I in heaven here, or am I in hell? At the crossroads I am standing.<p>So now your sleeping peaceful
I lie awake and pray that you'll be strong tomorrow and we'll see another day
And we will praise it
I love the light that brings a smile across your face<p>Hold on, hold on to yourself
For this is gonna hurt like hell.

I love it guys! Here I was so worried that with my full house for Easter I was going to leave you tuneless for a few days, and look at you!<p>Since this is a band for the hearing impaired all can join - except Dancer. Someone has to boogie for us. <p>The only tune I have running thru my head today is...<p>I wanna be the very best,
Like no one ever was,
To catch them is my real test,
To train them is my cause,
I will travel across the land,
Searching far and wide,
Each pokemon to understand,
The power that's inside,
Pokemon, gotta catch'em all,
It's you and me,
I know it's my destiny,
Pokemon, oh, you're my best friend,
In a world we must defend,
Pokemon, oh, a heart so true,
Our courage will pull us through,
You teach me and I'll teach you,
Pokemon,
Gotta catch'em all,
Gotta catch'em all,
Pokemon.<p>Hopefully I'll be feeling more artistic tomorow.<p>Elizabeth

Here is the one I really like. I burned this to a CD and gave it to my WW a few days after D-Day.<p>Kid Rock
Lonely Road Of Faith <p>Up and down that lonely road of faith
I have been there
Unprepared for the storms and the tides that rise
I've realized one thing, how much I love you
And it hurts to see, see you cryin'
I believe we can make it through the winds of change <p>God is great indeed
If you believe, in the everlife
Yeah we gotta
Make some sense of the piece that's not defined
And if you just hold on, I wont let ya fall
We can make it through the storms and the winds of change <p>Though I walk through the valley of darkness
I am not afraid
Cause I know I'm not alone <p>And if the wind blows east, would you follow me
And if the wind blows north, would ya stay your course
And if the wind blows west, would ya second guess
And if it blows to the south, would you count me out
And if the sun don't shine, would you still be mine
And if the sky turns grey, would you walk away
Would you say I do, if I say I'll be
And walk this road through life with me
You know I love youuuuuu <p>On this lonely road of faith
On this lonely road of faith
