Lyrics - Paroles de chansons

Kiss me out of the bearded barley
Nightly, beside the green, green grass
Swing, swing, swing the spinning step
You wear those shoes and I will wear that dress

chorus :
Oh, kiss me beneath the milky twilight
Lead me out on the moonlit floor
Lift your open hand
Strike up the band and make the fireflies dance
Silver moon's sparkling
So kiss me

Kiss me down by the broken tree house
Swing me upon its hanging tire
Bring, bring, bring your flowered hat
We'll take the trail marked on your father's map

chorus (x 2)

So kiss me (x 3)

I have no confidence
And I can't see why I should
But I could do most anything for you
And you know I would
I try too hard
And then I give up way too easily
I'm the runner up inside of you
And you're the winner inside of me

chorus :
Lose your way
And I will follow
Here today
And here tomorrow
Like my freedom I know
I'll never let you go

I still wish on the evening star
And I s'pose I always will
Every child loses something
A whole life can't fulfill
And when you cry I feel the sky
Burst open in my veins
If loving you makes a slave of me
Then I'll spend my whole life in chains

chorus

Walk the line
I'll walk inside you
Change your mind
Let your love decide you
It's the reason I know
You'll never let me go
Never let me go
Oh no no baby
Never let me go
Oh no no ... baby

chorus

Walk the line
I'll walk inside you
Change your mind
Let your love decide you
It's the reason I know
You'll never let me go

Something in your eyes
Makes me wanna lose myself,
Makes me wanna lose myself in your heart,
There's something in your voice
Makes my heart beat fast
Hope this feeling lasts
For the rest of my life
If you knew how lonely
My life has been
And how long I've been so alone
And if you knew how I wanted someone to come along
And change my life the way you've done

chorus :
It feels like home to me (x 2)
It feels like I'm all the way back where I come from
It feels like home to me (x 2)
It feels like I'm all the way back where I belong

A window breaks down on lumdard street
And a siren rings in the night
But I'm all right 'cause I have you here with me,
And I can almost see through the dark there is light
Well if you knew how much this moment means to me
And how long I've waited for your touch
And if you knew how happy you are making me
I never thought that I'd love anyone so much

chorus :
It feels like home to me (x 2)
It feels like I'm all the way back where I come from
It feels like home to me (x 2)
It feels like I'm all the way back where I belong (x 2)

Everybody's tellin' all
Baring their souls
Just go on the Ricky Lake Show

Why?

Last night I turned the T.V. on
You were booed off stage
Singing your famous love song

Why?

chorus :
Should'a been born on the Milky Way
Don't wanna belong to the world today
Oh, life's a bitch and then you die
Should'a been born on the Milky Way
I can't believe what I heard today
Oh yeah, life's a bitch and then you die

Meanwhile, I got the magazines
Telling me, selling me lies
On how I could be the perfect 10

Why?

And my boyfriend left
Just the other day
He's all messed up
Is he straight or is he gay

Why?

Now tell me, who makes the rules?

chorus

And if I fall

chorus

You sit there in my shadows
And you call it your relief
Don't be the one with bad eyes for
The things that I could see
Don't give me that

The darkness has no armor
Need protection from the air
High hopes through time passing
When I see I want you there

chorus :
I can't believe
You're the one for me
If it was this easy to find you
I should be ready for a fall (x 2)

Now my wonders rally
Around the person I once was
Like a bird that I've been helping
Hope you're healed and strong
You never know when you might have to fly

bridge :
Where will you go after me
Where will you go after I set you free
And I don't know you from a page in my book
Though I should (x 2)

chorus :
I can't believe
You're the one for me
If it was this easy to find you
I should be ready for a fall (x 3)

bridge :
Where will you go after me
Where will you go after I set you free
And I don't know you from a page in my book
Though I should

bridge :
Where will you go after me
Where will you go after I set you free
And I don't know you from a page in my book
Though I should (x 3)

I love the way you speak
And I love the way you swear
I love the way you walk around with your head held in the air
I love the way your words move
And I love the way you drive
I love the way you're scared of people scared to be alive

Stay - stay you that's the toughest thing to do (x 2)

I love the way you dress upon a Saturday night
I love the way you never speak until it feels just right
I love the way you're spending all your money on yourself
I love the way you answer the phone and pretend you're somebody else

Stay - stay you that's the toughest thing to do

And now I don't want to talk about the things you overcame
By dragging up the past I'll put you through it all again
I've got the greatest admiration for the way that you got through it
Couldn't ask nobody else to do it better than you do it

Stay - stay you...

Baby, look around
See that I'm nowhere to be found
You wanna feel me near
Then close your eyes and I'll appear

And dream of all of me without tears
Anything it takes to wish me here
Oh, magic and sweet lullaby
Any lucky penny will do fine
Oh, wish me here

Your arms are open wide
Waiting for me to run inside
I'll meet you in the clouds
Please you, your power to bring heaven down

And dream of me without the tears
Anything it takes to wish me hear
Oh, magic and sweet lullaby
Any lucky penny will do fine
Oh, wish me here

And when we're face to face
The world just fades away
So take me to the place
It's just you and I
Every single night

And dream of me without tears
Anything it takes to wish me here
Oh, magic and sweet lullaby
Any lucky penny will do fine
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah

Sharing with us what he knows
Shining eyes are big and blue
And all around him water flows
This world to him is new (x 2)

He's born to shimmer, he's born to shine
He's born to radiate
He's born to live, he's born to love
But we will teach him not to hate

And this thing they call our time
I heard a brilliant woman say
She said you know it's crazy
How I want to try to capture mine
I think I love this woman's way
I think I love this woman's

Way she shimmers, the way she shines
The way she radiates
The way she lives, the way she loves
The way she never hates

Sometimes I think of all of this that surrounds me
I know it all as being mine
But she kisses me and wraps herself around me
She gives me love, she gives me time

And I feel fine
I feel fine

But time I cannot change
So here's to looking back
You know I drink a whole bottle of my pride
And I toast to change
To keep these demons off my back
Just get these demons off my back

'Cause I want to shimmer, I want to shine
I want to radiate
I want to live, I want to love
I want to try to learn not to hate
Try not to hate

We're born to shimmer, we're born to shine
We're born to radiate
We're born to live, we're born to love
We're born to never hate

He's born to shimmer, he's born to shine
He's born to radiate
He's born to live, he's born to love
But we will teach him not to hate

I'm coming home to you
I'm alive, I'm a mess
I can't wait to get home to you
To get warm and undressed
There've been changes beyond my dreams
Everybody wants me to sing
There've been changes beyond my grasp
Things I'm sinking in

So keep me in your bed all day
Nothing heals me like you do

And when somebody knows you well
Well, there's no comfort like that
And when somebody needs you
Well, there's no drug like that

And when I'm home, curled in your arms
And I'm safe again
I'll close my eyes and sleep
To the sound of London rain

Nothing falls like London rain
Nothing heals me like you do
Nothing falls like London rain
Nothing heals me like you do

Mind your manners
Watch your weight
Be a good boy
Just behave
What's wrong with you ?
Settle down
Keep your two feet on the ground
Stand up straight
Stand up tall
Never falter
Never fall
Stay in school
Make the grade
Never fail
And never fade
Be a hero
Be a star
Anything but what you are
Find a girl to possess
Always pay, pursue, protect
Be a master
Be a slave
Work your ass into an early grave

chorus :
But you deserve to be loved
You deserve something real
Time to heal
Time to feel

Daddy's favorite little girl
Dress up in your momma's pearls
Serve us breakfast in her bed
Heard a little kiss on the forehead
You are sugar
You are spice
You are growing up so nice
Paint your nails
Paint your face
Paint around the empty space
Find a man that can provide
Try and fill the hole inside
With a family and a home
Tell yourself you're not alone
Keep your memories of yourself
In a shoebox on a closet shelf

chorus

You deserve to be

chorus

You deserve to be loved (x 3)

chorus :
Don't call me
Don't write
Don't show up in the middle of the night
You know that
We needed
Some time and space to breathe

I still recall the words you said to me
It's what you did not say that sets me free
Now how can I find peace of mind when you keep coming back again ?
It's not okay for you to play this game of seesaw with my head
Now it hurts too much
And it hits too hard
And I won't play this part

chorus

So now I say the things I want to say
Sometimes it's better letting go this way
I'll always know
Down in my soul
We really had so far to go
I've given all I had to give
And now it's time for me to live
And I won't look back
And I won't regret
Though it hurts like hell
Someday I will forget

chorus

Don't call me
Don't write
Don't show up in the middle of the night
To say that you've been thinkin'
'Cause I know it's just the drinkin' you

It's funny how we seem to end up here
I never thought I'd see this soul disappear

chorus

And this is letting go
This is letting go (x 3)

chorus

Don't call me
Don't write
Don't show up in the middle of the night
To say that you've been thinkin'
'Cause I know it's just the drinkin' you

Something went wrong
You are not laughing
It's not so easy now to get your smile
You gotta be strong
To walk these streets
And keep from falling
But when you're not, just let yourself cry
You've been working hard
Just trying to pay the rent
Tryin' to draw the line between who you are and who you invent
But if you throw a stone
Something's gonna shatter somewhere
We're all so fragile
We're all so scared
You say you wanna learn how to live your life without tears
But we've been trying to do that for thousands of years

So go on and cry Ophelia
It's the only thing to do sometimes
You know I'm crying too
Right there with you
It's alright Ophelia
Everybody cries

Thank god for my bad memory
I've forgotten some of the stupid things that I've done
I've come to a little wisdom through a whole lot of failure
So I watch more carefully what rolls off my tongue

You pray for rain
But you don't want it from a storm
You find a rose
And cut your finger on a thorn

So go on and cry Ophelia
It's the only thing to do sometimes
You know I'm crying too
Right there with you
It's alright Ophelia
Everybody cries Ophelia

It's the perfect thing to do sometimes
You know I'm crying too
Right there with you
So cry Ophelia
Everybody cries Ophelia
Cry Ophelia
I'm crying too
Right there with you
So cry Ophelia
Everybody cries

Did you ever love somebody ?
So much that the earth moved
Did you ever love somebody ?
Even though it hurt to
Did you ever love somebody ?
Nothing else the heart could do
Did you ever love somebody ?
Who never knew ?

Did you ever lay your head down ?
On the shoulder of a good friend ?
And then have to look away somehow
Had to hide the way you felt for them ?
Have you ever prayed the day would come ?
You'd hear them say they feel it too
Did you ever love somebody ?
Who never knew ?

And if you did,
Well, you know I'd understand
I could, I would
More than anybody can

Did you ever love somebody ?
So much that the earth moves
Did you ever love somebody ?
Even though it hurt to
Did you ever love somebody ?
Nothing else your heart could do
Did you ever love somebody ?
Like I love you (x 3)

It's just one more day
No one said
There would be rain again
Won't blame it on myself
I'll blame it on the weatherman
Get away for a while
Here I am out on my own again
Won't blame it on myself
I'll blame it on the weatherman

Standing on the shore
Calling out your name
I was here before
I could see your face
Only clouds will see
Tears are in my eyes
Empty like my heart
Why do ya say goodbye

The rain goes on (on and on again) (x 2)

Alone I can hear
Hear our song
Playing for me again
Won't blame it on myself
Just blame it on the weatherman

Standing on the shore
Calling out your name
I was here before
I could see your face
Only clouds will see
Tears are in my eyes
Empty like my heart
Why do ya say goodbye

The rain goes on (on and on again) (x 2)

Maybe it's too late
Maybe it's too late to try again
Maybe I can't pray
Maybe I can't wait
Maybe I can't blame the weatherman

The rain goes on (on and on again) (x 2)

Oh blame it on the weatherman

chorus : (x 2)
I am not like other girls
I don't breathe for some days
I want you here and in my arms
I can't just smile and turn away

I have prayed from a distance
Since you've been out of my reach
I can't hold onto reason
And practice what I preach
In my dreams we're together
And there is no one else in my heart
Love is stronger than leather
You should have known right from the start

chorus (x 2)

I have made my decision
I will give into your kiss
I can't hide my emotions
Pretend you don't exist
In all my dreams we're together
And I can't get you out of my head
My love it floats like a feather
But it floats if you forget

chorus (x 2)

Ba ba ba ba ba (x 3)

Come with me tonight

Ba ba ba ba ba (x 3)

Come with me tonight

chorus (x 4)

So open up your morning light,
And say a little prayer for I.
You know that if we are to stay alive.
Then see the peace in every eye.

She had two babies
One was six months, one was three
In the war of '44.
Every telephone ring, every heartbeat stinging
When she thought it was God calling her
Oh would her son grow to know his father ?

chorus :
I don't want to to wait for our lives to be over,
I want to know right now what will it be.
I don't want to wait for our lives to be over,
Will it be yes or will it be sorry ?

He showed up all wet on the rainy front step.
Wearing shrapnel in his skin.
And the war he saw lives inside him still,
It's so hard to be gentle and warm.
The years pass by and now he has granddaughters

chorus

So you look at me from across the room
You're wearing your anguish again
Believe me I know the feeling
It sucks you into the jaws of anger.
So breathe a little more deeply my love
All we have is this very moment
And I don't want to do what his father,
And his father, and his father did,
I want to be here now

So open up your morning light,
And say a little prayer for I
You know that if we are to stay alive,
Then see the peace and love in every eye

chorus :
I don't want to to wait for our lives to be over,
I want to know right now what will it be.
I don't want to wait for our lives to be over,
Will it be yes or will it be

chorus :
I don't want to to wait for our lives to be over,
I want to know right now what will it be.
I don't want to wait for our lives to be over,
Will it be yes or will it be sorry ?

So open up your morning light,
And say a little prayer for I
You know that if we are to stay alive,
Then see the love in every eye
