Pearl Jam-Black









Hey-hey-hey
Yeah-ah

Sheets of empty canvas, untouched sheets of clay
Were laid spread out before me, as her body once did
All five horizons revolved around her soul as the Earth to the Sun
Now, the air I tasted and breathe has taken a turn

Mmm, and all I taught her was everything
Mmm-hmm, I know she gave me all that she wore

And now my bitter hands chafe beneath the clouds
Of what was everything
All the pictures had all been washed in black
Tattooed everything

I take a walk outside
I'm surrounded by some kids at play
I can feel their laughter
So, why do I sear?

Mmm, and twisted thoughts that spin 'round my head
I'm spinning, oh-oh, I'm spinning
How quick the Sun can drop away?

And now my bitter hands cradle broken glass
Of what was everything
All the pictures have all been washed in black
Tattooed everything

All the love gone bad turned my world to black
Tattooed all I see, all that I am
All I'll be, yeah-yeah
Oh-oh, oh-oh, ooh

I know someday, you'll have a beautiful life
I know you'll be a star in somebody else's sky
But why, why, why can't it be
Oh, can't it be mine?

Ooh
Ah, yeah
Ah, ooh-ooh

Doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo (oh, oh-yeah)

Doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo
Doo doo doo, doo, doo-doo-doo (ah-ah)
Doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo (ah-ah)
Doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo (yeah)
Doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo (ah-ah, yeah)
Doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo (yeah, ah)
Doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo (yeah-yeah-yeah)
Doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo (oh-oh)

Oh-oh, oh-oh
Doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-hoo

Spin Doctors-How Could You Want Him (When You Know You Could Have Me?)
This came up in YouTube for me today.








"How Could You Want Him (When You Know You Could Have Me?)"

I'm quite contented to take my chances
Against the Guildensterns & Rosenkrantzes
It's a matter of Cain & Abel
And I can feel your knee underneath the table

He doesn't dangle by the seraphim
He only wants a pretty face by him so
How could you want him when you know you could have me?

See the pigeons peck & peck to pay the dues
They peck a little extra to resole their shoes
He's with the pigeons pecking crumbs
I'm on my deathbed bleeding with the cherubim

He doesn't dangle by the seraphim
He only wants a pretty face by him so
How could you want him when you know you could have me?

Ferocious angels send me falling stars
But I know just how dangerous wishes are
Ferocious angels watch me come and go
But I'm not too smart to go barging off of roof tops, though

Sit out September on the window sill
'Cause you can't drink wine from a two dollar bill
Saint Christopher lives on the end of a quill
Leave him a diamond in your last will

He doesn't dangle by the seraphim
He only wants a pretty face by him so
How could you want him when you know you could have me?

How could you want him when you know you could have me?
How could you want him when you know you could have me?
How could you want him when you know you could have me?
How could you want him when you know you could have me?

Brian Mcknight-One Last Cry
Unfortunately it won't be my last cry.....
I don't know how someone just moves on without you.....








My shattered dreams and broken heart
Are mending on the shelf
I saw you holding hands
Standing close to someone else
Now I sit all alone
Wishing all my feeling was gone

I gave my best to you
Nothing for me to do

But have one last cry
One last cry, before I leave it all behind
I've gotta put you outta my mind this time
Stop living a lie
I guess I'm down to my last cry
Cry

I was here, you were there
Guess we never could agree
While the sun shines on you
I need some love to rain on me
Still I sit all alone
Wishing all my feeling was gone

Gotta get over you
Nothing for me to do

But have one last cry
One last cry, before I leave it all behind
I've gotta put you outta my mind this time
Stop living a lie

I know I've gotta be strong
'Cause around me life goes on and on
And on
And on

I'm gonna dry my eyes
Right after I had my

One last cry
One last cry, before I leave it all behind
I've gotta put you outta my mind for the very last time
Been living a lie

I guess I'm down
I guess I'm down
I guess I'm down
To my last cry

Toadies - Possum Kingdom

Been stuck on this lately. As a very amateur musician I appreciate the time signature changes.

Folks, I'd be a liar if I said this wasn't my favorite 90s song:

 

[not-2-b-the-answer]

Sonia-You'll Never Stop Me From Loving You
I guess this is what stalking was before smart phones. .
This seems to be in a few of the S.A.W. mixes on youtube.








Even when you're home
You won't pick up your phone
And take my call
When I see you on the street
You stare down at your feet
You won't talk at all

If only you would see me
One more time and maybe
Some day you will find
That you could really love me
You could really need me
Maybe you could change your mind

But you'll never stop me from loving you
It doesn't really matter what you put me through
You'll never stop me from loving you

When I know that you're alone
I wander to your home
And catch a glimpse or two
It seems that all the time
The thought is on my mind
Of being with you

The times I've tried to see you
You know I would meet you
Any time, night or day
But still, you just refuse
And no matter what you do
I'll never let you get away

But you'll never stop me from loving you
It doesn't really matter what you put me through
You'll never stop me from loving you
Oh, whoa
You'll never stop me from loving you
Wherever you can go, I will follow you
You'll never stop me from loving you

Oh, whoa, oh, whoa
Never stop
Never stop me
Oh, whoa, oh, whoa
Never stop
Never stop me

If only you would see me
One more time and maybe
Some day you will find
That you could really love me
You could really need me
Maybe you could change your mind

But you'll never stop me from loving you
It doesn't really matter what you put me through
You'll never stop me from loving you
Oh, whoa
You'll never stop me from loving you
Wherever you can go, I will follow you
You'll never stop me from loving you

Oh, whoa
But you'll never stop me from loving you
It doesn't really matter what you put me through

Shanice- I'm Cryin








I'm Cryin'

Puttin' on my coat
Wanna break out from these walls
Catch a bus and take a walk downtown
Maybe run into a friend
I just know I got to get out

But everywhere I go
I see lovers hand in hand
Reminds me of the way it used to be (reminds me of the way it used to be boy)
Baby it felt so right
When you were walkin' with me
(don't you see)

[Chorus]
I'm cryin' how could you leave me all alone
I'm cryin' just can't make it on my own
I dream of you the whole day through
But when the night time falls
I'm all alone
Cryin' all alone

When I close my eyes
I can feel your lips on mine
Nobody ever touched me like you did (nobody ever touched me like you did boy)
There ain't a thing I wouldn't give
Baby for just one more kiss
(Don't you see)

[Chorus]

My friends say I'll love again
I wanna believe but why pretend
Tell me why, why pretend baby
I'm always gonna feel the same
No one will ever take your place
No nothing can compare
With the love that we shared, baby (don't you see)

[Chorus]

Thought I would post something a little less depressing.....

Jennifer Paige-Crush









Ah
Crush
Ah

See ya blowin' me a kiss, it doesn't take a scientist
To understand what's goin' on, babe
If you see somethin' in my eye, let's not overanalyze
Don't go too deep with it, babe (babe)

So let it be what it'll be
Don't make a fuss and get crazy over you and me
Here's what I'll do, I'll play it loose
Not like we have a date with destiny

It's just (ah) a little crush (crush)
Not like I faint every time we touch
It's just (ah) some little thing (crush)
Not like everything I do depends on you
Sha-la-la-la
Sha-la-la-la

It's raisin' my adrenaline, you're bangin' on a heart of tin
Please don't make too much of it, babe (babe)
Say the word forevermore, that's not what I'm lookin' for
All I can commit to is maybe (maybe)

So let it be what it'll be
Don't make a fuss and get crazy over you and me (crazy over you and me)
Here's what I'll do, I'll play it loose
Not like we have a date with destiny, oh, oh

It's just (ah) a little crush (crush)
Not like I faint every time we touch
It's just (ah) some little thing (crush)
Not like everything I do depends on you
Sha-la-la-la
Sha-la-la-la

Vanilla skies (vanilla skies)
White picket fences in your eyes
A vision of you and me

It's just (ah) a little crush (crush)
Not like I faint every time we touch
It's just (ah) some little thing (crush)
Not like everything I do (everything I do) depends on you
Sha-la-la-la (yeah, yeah-yeah)
Not like I faint every time we touch

It's just (yeah) some little thing
Not like everything I do (sha-la-la-la) depends on you
Sha-la-la-la (yeah, yeah-yeah)
Not like I faint every time we touch
It's just (yeah) some little thing
Not like everything I do (sha-la-la-la)

Stone Temple Pilots-Interstate Love Song








Waiting on a Sunday afternoon
For what I've read between the lines
Your lies
Feelin', like a hand in rusted shame
So do you laugh or does it cry
Reply?

Leavin' on a southern train
Only yesterday you lied
Promises of what I seemed to be
Only watched the time go by
All of these things you've said to me

Breathing is the hardest thing to do
With all I've said and all that's dead for you
You lied
Goodbye

Leavin' on a southern train
Only yesterday you lied
Promises of what I seemed to be
Only watched the time go by
All of these things I've said to you

I wanted to post something more fun but....
I just discovered this song. So it's new to me. (I think)
I thought this was a Westlife song.... I feel like I used to listen to this like 10 or 15 years ago on one of their CDs.
Maybe it was another Brit Pop band. I did look this band up and they are from down under.
Also looked up Westlife songs.... Couldn't find it. Maybe it just sounds similar to one of their songs.
If anyone knows... Let me know.


Indecent Obsession-Come Back To Me









Cry an everlasting weep
But never losing sleep
Of the dreams that have gone wrong
I'm sure it won't be long before you are here

Oh... before you are here...

Pain they say it all takes time
It hurts if the words don't rhyme
It can tear two worlds apart
And leave but a beating heart

Before you are here...
Oh... before you are here...

Won't you come back to me?
Don't leave me all alone.
My love will be the key that brings you home

Won't you come back to me?
Please don't go away...
My love will be as strong as yesterday...

Leave don't ever fade away
Just think of yesterday
When the love that brought us near
Had the warmth to shed a tear

Oh before you are here...

Won't you come back to me?
Don't leave me all alone.
My love will be the key that brings you home

Won't you come back to me?
Please don't go away...
My love will be as strong as yesterday...
