Lyrics....Friday. O.o

Yep. But hey, I wanted to post. And these lyrics came to mind....

{Go hit play on the video before you read...}
~~~~

Well I sat down next to a photograph
Tried my best almost made her laugh
She was my toughest crowd
There in the way was a moutain up in the clouds

Well I can't sleep and I'm not in love
I can't speak without messing up
Eyes tell of what's behind
And hers showed the way to a long and lonely climb
But through failure I'll proceed
And she'll see how far I've come

And it's you and me in the sun and sea
I'll offer my arms to yours
It seems to me, no mystery
it isn't
So I'll try hard to speak

Well I sat down next to a living hell
Tried my best until I struck out
Movement is not mine
I stood in the way pretending that I was the vine
But no failure will proceed from a mouth that drinks it's wine 

And it's not me
Not my sanctity
These aren't my words to you
It's all clear when it's not from here
So clear
So I'll try not to speak

 

~~~~~

{Seriously. Listen.}

~~~~

It's been a long week. 

*sigh*

I'm looking forward to it being over. 

I need a new week. 

Anyways.

Lyrics Thursday

Tryin' on a brand new dress

but you haven't worn the old one yet

You've come too far

To turn around now

You've given up the good fight

You're as strong as anyone

You're back where you started from

I see your back where you started from

Starin' down the stars

Jealous of the moon

You wish you could fly

just bein' where you are

There nothin' you can do

If you're to scared to try

Drag your pretty head around 

Swearin' you are gonna drown

With a beautiful sigh 

And a river of lies

Starin' down the stars

Jealous of the moon

You wish you could fly

just bein' where you are 

There's nothin' you can do

If you're too scared to try

Why don't you call me, I could save you

Together we'll find a God we can pray to

That'll take you by the hand

I hate to see a friend of mine 

Laughin' out loud

When she's cryin' inside

But you've got your pride

You're starin' down the stars

Stay where you are

You're jealous of the moon

But there's nothing you can do

If you're too scared to try

~~~~~~

Lyrics Thursday...

"I've Got the World on a String"

Michael Buble

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I've got the world on a string

I'm sitting on a rainbow

Got that string around my finger

What a world, what a life - I'm in love

I've got a song that I sing

And I can make the rain go

anytime I move my finger

Lucky me, can't you see - I'm in love

Life's a wonderful thing

As long as I've got that string

I'd be a silly so-and-so

If I should ever let you go

I've got the world on a string

I'm sitting on the rainbow

I've got that string around my finger

oh, what a world, what a life - I'm in love.

Life's a wonderful thing

As long as I hold the string

I'd be a crazy so-and-so

If I should ever let her go

I've got the world on a string

I'm sitting on a rainbow

I got that string around my finger

What a world, what a life

Oh, what a world, what a life

What a world, what life, cause I'm in love

I'm in love

And what a wonderful thing

When you get the world on a string

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Not quite sure where he decided to go with the lisp-ish voice in this one, but I think it's sure cute. ^_^ <3
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

There ya go!
I looooove this song, and I love Michael. This post was mucho fun to put together.
I think these lyrics are just dolly. I hope you enjoyed them!

Lyrics Thursday

"Hoist The colors"

Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End

~~~

The King and his men

Stole the queen from her bed

And bound her in her bones.

The seas be ours and by the pow'rs

Where we will we'll roam

Yo, ho, haul together

Hoist the colors high. 

Heave ho, Thieves and beggars

Never shall we die. 

Some men have died 

And some are alive

And others sail on the sea

- with the keys to the cage

 and the devil to pay

we lay to Fiddler's Green! 

The Bell has been raised

 from it's watery grave...

do y' hear it's sepulchral tone?

We are a call to all, 

Pay heed to the squall

And turn your sail toward home! 

Yo, ho, haul together, 

hoist the colors high! 

Heave, ho, Thieves and beggars, 

Never shall we die! 

~~~~~~~

The scene from the movie when the pirates sing the song. <3

Pirates of the Caribbean. BEST MOVIES EVER. *sigh* 

I *finally* got all four soundtracks off cd's and onto my iPod this week and I've been lovin' it SO much. :D The music from those movies is brilliant beyond belief, plus, Those are my favorite movies in the whole world which just allows me to enjoy the soundtracks all the more. :D 

Anyways, Those are my lyrics for you this week. I hope you enjoyed! <3 <3 

Have a fantastical weekend, dears!!

Lyrics Thursday

"Talk of the Town"

(Jack Johnson)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I wanna be where the talk of the town 

was about last night when the sun went down

And the trees all dance

and the warm wind blows in that same old sound

And the water below gives a gift to the sky 

And the clouds give back every time they cry

And make the grass grow green beneath my toes

And if the sun comes out

I'll paint a picture all about

the colors I've been dreaming of

The hours just don't seem enough to put it all together

Maybe it's as strange as it seems.

And the trouble I find is that the trouble finds me

It's a part of my mind it begins with a dream

and a feeling I get when I look and I see

 That this world is a puzzle, I'll find all of the pieces

And put it all together, Then I'll rearrange it

I'll follow it forever

Always be as strange as it seems

Nobody ever told me not to try

And the water below gives a gift to the sky

And the clouds give back every time they cry

And make the grass grow green beneath my toes

And if the sun comes out

I'm gonna paint a picture all about

the colors I've been dreaming of

the hours just don't seem enough  to put it all together

Always be as strange as it seems.

{this is the best vid of this song I could find...It's boring to watch and the sound isn't great, but if you wanna hear the song, here it is for you! lol}

Feelin' Good...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Birds Flyin' High, you know how I feel. 

Sun in the sky, You know how I feel. 

Breeze driftin' on by, you know how I feel. 

It's a new dawn,

It's a new day,

It's a new life, 

For me...

And I'm Fellin' Good.

Fish in the sea, You know how I feel.

River runnin' free, you know how I feel.

Blossom on the tree, You know how I feel. 

It's a new dawn, 

It's a new day, 

It's a new life for me. 

And I'm feelin' good! 

Dragonfly out in the sun, you know what I mean, don't you know.

Butterflies all havin' fun, you know what I mean. 

Sleep in peace when day is done, that's what I mean.

And this olde world is a new world

and a bold world,

For me, 

oh, foooooor me!! 

Stars, when they shine, you know how I feel. 

Scent of the pine, you know how I feel. 

Oh freedom is mine! An' I know how I feel! 

It's a new dawn,

It's a new day, 

It's a new life, 

For me.

{p.s. yes, I do like Black and white pictures. lol}

{p.p.s. Happy Friday!!!}

In Love With Life...

How can I say thanks

For the things you have done for me-

Things so undeserved,

yet you give to prove your love for me?

The voices of a million angels

could not express my gratitude-

All that I am and ever hope to be,

I owe it all to thee.

To God be the glory,

To God be the glory,

To God be the glory

for thethings He has done.

With His blood He has saved me;

With his pow'r He has raised me;

To God be the glory

For the things he has done.

Just let me live my life;

Let it be pleasing, Lord, to thee.

And should I gain any praise,

Let it go to Calvary.

Who Am I?

Who am I, that the Lord of all the earth
Would care to know my name
Would care to feel my hurt
Who am I, that the Bright and Morning Star
Would choose to light the way
For my ever wandering heart

Not because of who I am
But because of what You've done
Not because of what I've done
But because of who You are

I am a flower quickly fading
Here today and gone tomorrow
A wave tossed in the ocean
Vapor in the wind
Still You hear me when I'm calling
Lord, You catch me when I'm falling
And You've told me who I am
I am Yours, I am Yours

Who am I, that the eyes that see my sin
Would look on me with love and watch me rise again
Who am I, that the voice that calmed the sea
Would call out through the rain
And calm the storm in me

Not because of who I am
But because of what You've done
Not because of what I've done
But because of who You are

I am a flower quickly fading
Here today and gone tomorrow
A wave tossed in the ocean
Vapor in the wind
Still You hear me when I'm calling

Lord, You catch me when I'm falling
And You've told me who I am
I am Yours

  I am Yours
