A lighter breeze....

Although these changes have come
with your chrome heart shining, in the sun

Jeez, there's just too much cool shit on TBR to keep up! This is the first time I've ever visited the Music forum, & this thread is Too Cool! Lots of awesome responses.

Just a few of my faves:

Because the world is round, it turns me on...because the wind is high, it blows my mind... The Beatles

She dances while his father plays guitar/She's suddenly beautiful/We all want something beautiful/I wish I was beautiful... Counting Crows

When I think of heaven/Deliver me in a black-winged bird/I think of flying down into a sea of pins and feathers/and all other instruments of faith and sex and God/in the belly of a black-winged bird... Counting Crows

This is serious business---sex and violence and rock and roll... John Mellencamp

oh, you're a beautiful, a beautiful fucked-up man, you're setting up your razor wire shrine... Sarah McLachlan

What I wouldn't give to find a soulmate/Someone else to catch this drift... Alanis Morissette

'Cause the joke that you laid in the bed that was me/And I'm not gonna fade/As soon as you close your eyes and you know it/And every time I scratch my nails down someone else's back I hope you feel it... Alanis Morissette

She'll change so suddenly/She's just like mercury/Yeah, but she's all right with me... Counting Crows

 

Sorry for the long post but I couldn't pickout just one line.



Better Than Ezra - A lifetime

Allie woke up 8AM
Graduation day.
Got into a car,
And crashed along the way.

When we arrived late to the wake,
Stole the urn while they
Looked away,
And drove to the beach
'Cause I knew you'd want it
That way.

And you were standing
On the hood of the car
Singing out loud
When the sun came up.

And I know I wasn't right,
But it felt so good.
And your mother didn't mind,
Like I thought she would.
And that REM song was playing
In my mind.
And three and a half minutes
Felt like a lifetime

It felt like a lifetime

And you move like water
I could drown in you.
And I fell so deep once,
Till you pulled me through

You would tell me
"No one is allowed to be so proud
They never reach out
When they're giving up."

And I know I wasn't right,
But it felt so good.
And your mother didn't mind,
Like I thought she would.
And that REM song was playing
In my mind.
And three and a half minutes
Felt like a lifetime

Are you sitting in the lights?
Or combing your hair again,
And talking in rhymes?
Are you sitting in the lights?

When I got home, heard the phone,
Your parents had arrived.
And your dad set his jaw
Your mom just smiled and sighed.

But they left soon
And I went to my room.
Played that disc that you'd given me,
And I shut my eyes
Swear I could hear the sea.

When we were standing
On the hood of your car
Singing out loud when the sun came up.

And I know I wasn't right,
But it felt so good.
And your mother didn't mind,
Like I thought she would.
And that REM song was playing
In my mind.
And three and a half minutes,
Three and a half minutes,

Felt like a lifetime.




Better Than Ezra - Beatiful Mistake


PHOTO STILLS
IN YOUR WALLET WITH THE UNPAID BILLS
AND YOU SHOW IT LIKE IT MEANS SOMETHING
YOU COULD NEVER KNOW THE PAIN IT BRINGS

AND HERE YOU ARE
STANDING IN OUR DRIVE
(WHEN ABSENCE SUITS YOU BEST)
LETTERS AND YOUR CARDS
WITH NO RETURN ADDRESS

CHORUS:
NOW YOU COME AROUND
NOW YOU COME AROUND
YOUR FAMILIAR SOUNDS
WE ARE YOUR BEAUTIFUL,
WE ARE YOUR BEAUTIFUL MISTAKE.

WAITING FOR THIS DAY
WELL I MEMORIZED THE THINGS I'D SAY
HOW YOU BROKE HER WHEN YOU DISAPPEARED
HOW I HEAR HER SAY,

"YOU'D MAKE YOUR FATHER PROUD."
IT ECHOES THROUGH THE YEARS
AS IF I COULD FORGET ALL A MOTHER'S TEARS

CHORUS:

BRIDGE:
NO, DON'T SAY A WORD
LEAVE WHILE YOU STILL CAN
PUT OUT YOUR LIGHT

NOW I GUESS YOU'RE GOING
A FIGURE THROUGH THE DOOR
AND YOUR TAILLIGHTS FADED
LIKE TWENTY YEARS BEFORE
