A lonely mother gazing out of her window
Staring at a son that she just can't touch
If at any time he's in a jam
She'll be by his side
But he doesn't realize he hurts her so much
But all the praying just ain't helping
At all 'cause he can't seem to keep
His self out of trouble
So he goes out and he makes his money
The best way he knows how
Another body laying cold in the gutter
Listen to me
Chorus:
Don't go chasing waterfalls
Please stick to the rivers and the lakes that
You're used to
I know that you're gonna have it your way
Or nothing at all
But I think you're moving too fast
Little precious has a natural obsession
For temptation but he just can't see
She gives him loving that his body can't handle
But all he can say is baby it's good to me
One day he goes and takes a glimpse
In the mirror
But he doesn't recognize his own face
His health is fading and he doesn't know why
3 letters took him to his final resting place
Y'all don't hear me
Chorus
I seen a rainbow yesterday
But too many storms have come and gone
Leavin' a trace of not one God-given ray
Is it because my life is ten shades of grey
I pray all ten fade away
Seldom praise Him for the sunny days
And like His promise is true
Only my faith can undo
The many chances I blew
To bring my life to anew
Clear blue and unconditional skies
Have dried the tears from my eyes
No more lonely cries
My only bleedin' hope
Is for the folk who can't cope
Wit such an endurin' pain
That it keeps 'em in the pourin' rain
Who's to blame
For tootin' caine in your own vein
What a shame
You shoot and aim for someone else's brain
You claim the insane
And name this day and time
For fallin' prey to crime
I say the system got you victim to your own mind
Dreams are hopeless aspirations
In hopes of comin' true
Believe in yourself
The rest is up to me and you

Finally I figured out
But it took a long, long time
But now there’s a turnabout
Maybe ’cause I’m trying
There’s been times, I’m so confused
All my roads, they lead to you
I just can’t turn and walk away
It’s hard to say what it is I see in you
Wonder if I’ll always be with you
But words can’t say, and I can’t do
Enough to prove,
It’s all for you
I thought I’d seen it all
’cause it’s been a long, long time
But then we’ll trip and fall
Wondering if I’m blind
(pre-chorus)
(chorus)
Rain comes pouring down
Falling from blue skies
Words without a sound
Coming from your eyes
Finally I figured out
But it took a long, long time
But now there’s a turnabout
Maybe cause I’m trying
(pre-chorus)
(chorus-chorus)

The Reason - Celine Dion (amazing song )
"I figured it out
I was high and low and everything in between
I was wicked and wild, baby, you know what I mean
Till there was you, yeah, you
Something went wrong
I made a deal with the devil for an empty I.O.U.
Been to hell and back, but an angel was looking through
It was you, yeah, you
It's all because of you
You are the reason
You are the reason I wake up every day
And sleep through the night
You are the reason, the reason
In the middle of the night
I'm going down 'cause I adore you
I want to floor you
I'm giving it up
No more running around spinning my wheel
You came out of my dream and made it real
I know what I feel
It's you
It's all because of you
You are the reason
You are the reason I wake up every day
And sleep through the night
You are the reason, the reason
In the middle of the night
I'm going down 'cause I want you
I want to touch you
I want to floor you
You are the reason, baby
You are the reason
You are the reason I wake up every day
And sleep through the night
You are the reason, the reason"

:lol: Everytime I hear this song, I think "Are we talking about the same Miami?" I guess I need to get out more
---------------------------------
Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah
Miami, uh, uh
Southbeach, bringin the heat, uh
Haha, can y'all feel that
Can y'all feel that
Jig it out, uh
Here I am in the place where I come let go
Miami the base and the sunset low
Everyday like a mardi gras everybody party all day
No work all play okay
So we sip a little something lay the rest the spill
Me an Charlie at the bar running up a high bill
Nothin less than ill when we dress to kill
Everytime the ladies pass, they be like (Hi Will)
Can y'all feel me, all ages and races
Real sweet faces
Every different nation, Spanish, Haitian, Indian, Jamaican
Black, White, Cuban, and Asian
I only came for two days of playing
But every time I come I always wind up staying
This the type of town I could spend a few days in
Miami the city that keeps the roof blazing
Party in the city where the heat is on
All night on the beach till the break of dawn
Welcome to Miami (bienvenido a Miami)
Bouncing in the club where the heat is on
All night on the beach till the break of dawn
I'm going to Miami
Welcome to Miami
Yo I heard the rainstorms ain't nothin to mess with
But I can't feel a drip on the strip, it's a trip
Ladies half-dressed, fully equipped
And they be screaming out, (Will we loved your last hit)
So I'm thinking I'm a scoot me something hot
In this south-sea meringue melting pot
Hottest club in the city and it's right on the beach
Temperature get to ya it's about to reach
Five-hundred degrees
In the carribean seas, with the hot mommies
Screamin (ay, papi)
Every time I come to town, they be spotting me
In the drop Bentley, ain't no stopping me
So, cash in your dough
And flow to this fashion show
Pound for pound anywhere you go
Yo ain't no city in the world like this
An if you ask how I know I gots to plead the fifth
Party in the city where the heat is on
All night on the beach till the break of dawn
Welcome to Miami (bienvenido a miami)
Bouncing in the club where the heat is on
All night on the beach till the break of dawn
I'm going to Miami
Welcome to Miami
Don't get me wrong, Chi-town got it going on
And New York is the city that we know don't sleep
And we all know that L.A. and Philly stay jiggy
But on the sneak, Miami bringing heat for real
Y'all don't understand
I never seen so many Dominican women with cinnamon tans
Ya know this is the plan
Take a walk on the beach draw a heart in the sand
Gimmie your hand
Damn you look sexy
Let's go to my yacht in the West Keys
Ride my jet skis loungin in the palm trees
Cause you gotta have cheese for the summerhouse piece on South Beach
Water so clear you can see to the bottom
Hundred thousand dollar cars, every body got em
Ain't no surprise to see in the club to see Sly Stallone
Miami my second home
Party in the city where the heat is on
All night on the beach till the break of dawn
Welcome to Miami (bienvenido a miami)
Bouncing in the club where the heat is on
All night on the beach till the break of dawn
I'm going to Miami
Welcome to Miami
-repeat-

We slip through the fingers
and dancing on the wind
We find each other
One you - one me
One chance for us to live
One heart - one soul
One life for us to give
One dream - one mind
One sky up above
One you - one me
One love
yeah yeah yeah
One love
A star made a wish on us tonight
Hangin' out in heaven
inspired by our light
And she knows how it feels
to shine on all the world
And last forever
One you - one me
One chance for us to live
One heart - one soul
One life for us to give
One dream - one mind
One sky up above

Surrender all your battles
It's only love that makes us matter

Sweet Afton
- Nickel Creek-
Flow gently, sweet Afton, among thy green braes
Flow gently, I'll sing thee a song in thy praise
My Mary's asleep by thy murmuring stream
Flow gently, sweet Afton, disturb not her dream
Thou stock-dove whose echo resounds thro' the glen
Ye wild whistling blackbirds in yon thorny den
Thou green-crested lapwing, thy screaming forbear
I charge you disturb not my slumbering fair
How lofty, sweet Afton, thy neighboring hills
Far mark'd with the courses of clear winding rills
There daily I wander as noon rises high
My flocks and my Mary's sweet c ot in my eye
How pleasant thy banks and green valleys below
Where, wild in the woodlands, the primroses blow
There oft, as mild Ev'ning sweeps over the lea
The sweet scented birk shades my Mary and me
Thy crystal stream, Afton, how lovely it glides
And winds by the c ot where my Mary resides
How wanton thy waters her snowy feet lave
As, gathering sweet flow'rets, she stems thy clear wave
Flow gently, sweet Afton, among thy green braes
Flow gently, sweet river, the theme of my lays
My Mary's asleep by thy murmuring stream
So flow gently, sweet Afton, disturb not her dream

And in honour of the beloved Bobby Short who passed away yesterday. A man of class, style, and sophistication who sang the classic songbooks like nobody's business. Heaven is a swankier place now that you've arrived there Bobby.
Picture Me Without You
When somebody loves somebody
Ev'rything and ev'rybody
Makes life a happy song
When somebody has nobody
Birds won't sing and that somebody
Finds life without a song
If you wanna see a picture
Of the whole world upside-down
Just picture me without you
And you without me
Just close your eyes and you'll see
How lonesome we'd be
Stars would fall
Dreams would all crumble
Down for good
Castles would tumble
There'd be no me without you
No you without me
And yet nobody could be
As happy as we
Smiling through
Clinging to-gether
What would I do without you
And you without me
Picture Me Without You
When somebody loves somebody
Ev'rything and ev'rybody
Makes life a happy song
When somebody has nobody
Birds won't sing and that somebody
Finds life without a song
If you wanna see a picture
Of the whole world upside-down
Just picture me without you
And you without me
Just close your eyes and you'll see
How lonesome we'd be
Stars would fall
Dreams would all crumble
Down for good
Castles would tumble
There'd be no me without you
No you without me
And yet nobody could be
As happy as we
Smiling through
Clinging to-gether
What would I do without you
And you without me
We get some rules to follow
That and this
These and those
No one knows
We get these pills to swallow
How they stick
In your throat
Tastes like gold
Oh, what you do to me
No one knows
And I realize you’re mine
Indeed a fool of mine
And I realize you’re mine
Indeed a fool of mine
Ahh
I journey through the desert
Of the mind
With no hope
I found low
I drift along the ocean
Dead lifeboats in the sun
And come undone
Pleasently caving in
I come undone
And I realize you’re mine
Indeed a fool of mine
And I realize you’re mine
Indeed a fool and mine
Ahhh
Heaven smiles above me
What a gift there below
But no one knows
A gift that you give to me
No one knows
That and this
These and those
No one knows
We get these pills to swallow
How they stick
In your throat
Tastes like gold
Oh, what you do to me
No one knows
And I realize you’re mine
Indeed a fool of mine
And I realize you’re mine

Ahh
I journey through the desert
Of the mind
With no hope
I found low
I drift along the ocean
Dead lifeboats in the sun
And come undone
Pleasently caving in
I come undone
And I realize you’re mine
Indeed a fool of mine

Indeed a fool and mine
Ahhh

What a gift there below
But no one knows
A gift that you give to me

Look around everywhere you turn is heartache
It's everywhere that you go (look around)
You try everything you can to escape
The pain of life that you know (life that you know)
When all else fails and you long to be
Something better than you are today
I know a place where you can get away
It's called a dance floor, and here's what it's for, so
[Chorus:]Come on, vogue
Let your body move to the music (move to the music)
Hey, hey, hey

Let your body go with the flow (go with the flow)
You know you can do it
All you need is your own imagination
So use it that's what it's for (that's what it's for)
Go inside, for your finest inspiration
Your dreams will open the door (open up the door)
It makes no difference if you're black or white
If you're a boy or a gir
lIf the music's pumping it will give you new life
You're a superstar, yes, that's what you are, you know it

Beauty's where you find it
Not just where you bump and grind it
Soul is in the musical
That's where I feel so beautiful
Magical, life's a ball

in the sunlight of your smile
in the summer of our life
in the magic of love
storms above scattered away
lovers dreaming in the night
reaching for paradise
but as the dark shadows fade
love slips away
on an empty stretch of beach
in the pattern of the waves
drawing pictures with my hand
in the sand, I see your face
skipping pebbles on the sea
wishing for Paradise
sand castles crumble below
the restless tides ebb and flow
listening to a shell
hoping for your voice
beautiful Maria of my soul
though we'll always be apart
locked forever in a dream
if I ever love again
even then, nothing will change
and the taste of you remains
clinging to Paradise
but as the distance from you grows
all that my heart ever knows
hunger for your kiss
longing for your touch
beautiful Maria of my soul
filling all my nights
haunting all my days
beautiful Maria of my soul
in the summer of our life
in the magic of love
storms above scattered away
lovers dreaming in the night
reaching for paradise
but as the dark shadows fade
love slips away
on an empty stretch of beach

Send me the pillow that you dream on
Don't you know that I still care for you
Send me the pillow that you dream on
So darling, I can dream on it too.
Each night while I'm sleeping oh, so lonely
I share your love in dreams that once were true
Send me the pillow that you dream on
So darling, I can dream on it too.
I've waited so long for you to write me
But just a mem'ry's all that's left of you
Send me the pillow that you dream on
So darling, I can dream on it too...
Don't you know that I still care for you
Send me the pillow that you dream on
So darling, I can dream on it too.
Each night while I'm sleeping oh, so lonely
I share your love in dreams that once were true
Send me the pillow that you dream on

Trophy Husband
One of the greatest love songs ever with a couple fantastic lines by Joe Jackson:
Please mister can't you help me try to find my baby's house
It's three in the morning in the pouring rain
I can't find the house and i forgot the number
But I gotta give her these roses to relieve her pain
Don't laugh . . . just tell me you've been there before
So we fight but we fight every evening
And I tell you every morning I just love her more
And life goes on . . . filled with disasters and friction
And life can be strange
But love can be stranger than fiction
Only love can be stranger than fiction
Excuse me operator . . . tell me what time it is
Me and my lover been in bed all day
I think I strained a muscle
I didn't know I had
And tell me what day it is anyway
Don't laugh . . . just tell me you hear what I say
I love her so much I don't even know what planet I'm on
Love her so much I wish she'd just go away
And life goes on . . . filled with bizarre contradictions
And life can be strange
But love can be stranger than fiction
Only love can be stranger than fiction
I know that sometimes love goes
But sometimes it comes back to getcha
And when love grows
It grows like a flower or grows like a tumor
Love shows that God has a sense of humor
Life goes on . . . ever immune to prediction
And life can be strange
But love can be stranger than fiction
Only love can be stranger than fiction
Please mister can't you help me try to find my baby's house
It's three in the morning in the pouring rain
I can't find the house and i forgot the number
But I gotta give her these roses to relieve her pain
Don't laugh . . . just tell me you've been there before
So we fight but we fight every evening
And I tell you every morning I just love her more
And life goes on . . . filled with disasters and friction
And life can be strange
But love can be stranger than fiction
Only love can be stranger than fiction
Excuse me operator . . . tell me what time it is
Me and my lover been in bed all day
I think I strained a muscle
I didn't know I had
And tell me what day it is anyway
Don't laugh . . . just tell me you hear what I say
I love her so much I don't even know what planet I'm on
Love her so much I wish she'd just go away
And life goes on . . . filled with bizarre contradictions
And life can be strange
But love can be stranger than fiction
Only love can be stranger than fiction
I know that sometimes love goes
But sometimes it comes back to getcha
And when love grows
It grows like a flower or grows like a tumor
Love shows that God has a sense of humor
Life goes on . . . ever immune to prediction
And life can be strange
But love can be stranger than fiction
Only love can be stranger than fiction

Mr. and Mrs. Jones
Mr. Jones has got his butt glued to a big brown easy chair
Mr. Jones ain't had a good laugh since drop seat underwear
Mr. Jones he quit his drinkin', puts the money in a box
When he gets a thousand dollars, he's going to walk that one way walk!
Mrs. Jones she wears her hairnet like it was stapled to her head
Mrs. Jones she shut her heart down after all was done and said
Mrs. Jones she takes in sewin', puts the money in a box
When she gets a thousand dollars she's going to walk that one way walk!
Mr. Jones, he left for work one day and he never did look back
Mrs. Jones, she left the same day just as soon as she could pack
It had been a half a lifetime since they just sat down and talked
So neither one could know the other was going to walk that one way walk!
There's a black cat on the back porch, there are papers on the lawn
There's a nosey neighbor wanderin', where has everybody gone?
There's two postcards in the mailbox just above the welcome mat
They both say about the same thing...Don't forget to feed the cat!

one of my fave Disney songs
Clopin:
Morning in Paris, the city awakes
To the bells of Notre Dame
The fisherman fishes, the bakerman bakes
To the bells of Notre Dame
To the big bells as loud as the thunder
To the little bells soft as a psalm
And some say the soul of the city's
The toll of the bells
The bells of Notre Dame
Listen, they're beautiful, no?
So many colors of sound, so many changing moods
Because you know, they don't ring all by themselves
- They don't? -
No, silly boy.
Up there, high, high in the dark bell tower
lives the mysterious bell ringer.
Who is this creature - Who? -
What is he? - What? -
How did he come to be there - How? -
Hush, and Clopin will tell you
It is a tale, a tale of a man and a monster.
Dark was the night when our tale was begun
On the docks near Notre Dame
Man #1:
Shup it up, will you!
Man #2:
We'll be spotted!
Gypsy:
Hush, little one.
Clopin:
Four frightened gypsies slid silently under
The docks near Notre Dame
Man #3:
Four guilders for safe passage into Paris
Clopin:
But a trap had been laid for the gypsies
And they gazed up in fear and alarm
At a figure whose clutches
Were iron as much as the bells
Man #4:
Judge Claude Frollo
Clopin:
The bells of Notre Dame
Chorus:
Kyrie Eleison (Lord have mercy)
Clopin:
Judge Claude Frollo longed
To purge the world
Of vice and sin
Chorus:
Kyrie Eleison (Lord have mercy)
Clopin:
And he saw corruption
Ev'rywhere
Except within
Frollo:
Bring these gypsy vermin to the palace of justice
Guard:
You there, what are you hiding?
Frollo:
Stolen goods, no doubt. Take them from her!
Clopin:
She ran....
Chorus:
Dies irae, dies illa (Day of wrath, that day)
Solvet saeclum in favilla (Shall consume the world in ashes)
Teste David ______ sibylla (As prophesied by David and the sibyl)
Quantus tremor est futurus (What trembling is to be)
Quando Judex est venturus (When the Judge is come)
Gypsy:
Sanctuary, please give us sanctuary!!
Frollo:
A baby?...A monster!
Archdeacon:
Stop!
Clopin:
Cried the Archdeacon
Frollo:
This is an unholy deamon.
I'm sending it back to hell, where it belongs.
Archdeacon:
See there the innocent blood you have spilt
On the steps of Notre Dame
Frollo:
I am guiltless. She ran, I pursued.
Archdeacon:
Now you would add this child's blood to your guilt
On the steps of Notre Dame
Frollo:
My conscience is clear
Archdeacon:
You can lie to yourself and your minions
You can claim that you haven't a qualm
But you never can run from
Nor hide what you've done from the eyes
The very eyes of Notre Dame
Chorus:
Kyrie Eleison (Lord have mercy)
Clopin:
And for one time in his live
Of power and control
Chorus:
Kyrie Eleison (Lord have mercy)
Clopin:
Frollo felt a twinge of fear
For his immortal soul
Frollo:
What must I do?
Archdeacon:
Care for the child, and raise it as your own
Frollo:
What? I'd be settled with this misshapen ..?
Very well. Let him live with you, in your church.
Archdeacon:
Live here? Where?
Frollo:
Anywhere.
Just so he's kept locked away
Where no one else can see
(The bell tower, perhaps.)
And who knows, our Lord works in mysterious ways
Even this foul creature may
Yet prove one day to be
Of use to me
Clopin:
And Frollo gave the child a cruel name
A name that means half-formed, Quasimodo...
Now here is a riddle to guess if you can
Sing the bells of Notre Dame
Who is the monster and who is the man?
Clopin and Chorus:
Sing the bells, bells, bells, bells
Bells, bells, bells, bells
Bells of Notre Dame
*phew*

I drink good coffee every morning
Comes from a place that's far away
And when I'm done I feel like talking
Without you here there is less to say
I don't want you thinking I'm unhappy
What is closer to the truth
That if I lived til I was 102
I just don't think I'll ever get over you
I'm no longer moved to drink strong whisky
Cause I shook the hand of time and I knew
That if I lived, til I could no longer climb my stairs
I just don't think I'll ever get over you
Your face it dances, and it haunts me
Your laughter's still ringing in my ears
I still find pieces of your presence here
Even after all these years
But I don't want you thinking I don't get asked to dinner
Cause I'm here to say that I sometimes do
Even though I may soon feel the touch of love
I just don't think I'll ever get over you
If I lived til I was 102
I just don't think I'll ever get over you
Comes from a place that's far away
And when I'm done I feel like talking
Without you here there is less to say
I don't want you thinking I'm unhappy
What is closer to the truth
That if I lived til I was 102
I just don't think I'll ever get over you
I'm no longer moved to drink strong whisky
Cause I shook the hand of time and I knew
That if I lived, til I could no longer climb my stairs
I just don't think I'll ever get over you
Your face it dances, and it haunts me
Your laughter's still ringing in my ears
I still find pieces of your presence here
Even after all these years
But I don't want you thinking I don't get asked to dinner
Cause I'm here to say that I sometimes do
Even though I may soon feel the touch of love
I just don't think I'll ever get over you
If I lived til I was 102
I just don't think I'll ever get over you
