Not open for further replies.
...Moon appears to shine
And light the sky
With the help of some firefly
Wonder how they have the power to shine
shine
shine
I can see them ...un-der the pine.....

I dont know about stirring but ... its Peter Frampton so.... This song is good in Winter snuggled up indoors cozy....or ...in summer in the sunshine...kicking back relaxed. (I think its stirring, I just love this song so...)
Album: "Frampton comes Alive" (for both of them)
-----------------------------------------------------

Show me the way

I wonder how you're feeling
There's ringing in my ears
And no one to relate to 'cept the sea
Who can I believe in
I'm kneeling on the floor
There has to be a force who do I phone
The stars are out and shining, but all I really want to know...
Oh won't you show me the way
I want you ...show me the way

Well, I can see no reason
You living on your nerves
When someone drops a cup and I submerge
I'm swimming in a circle
I feel I'm going down
There has to be a fool to play my part
Well someone thought of healing, but all I really want to know...
Oh won't you show me the way (everyday)



Not so keen on this one as a song but the lyrics I think are just brilliant
And this is a love song too-but hey the lyrics are cool, and you cant have everything!!
I think it was '76 not sure
 
yes...my apologies the above first lyrics are from:
"Baby I love Your Way"...
Peter Frampton
"Frampton Comes Alive"

This is a song by The Tossers. They're fairly amazing.

Not Alone

I remember the rosary, the Catechism, the stations of the cross,
The plenary indulgence, and I know it isn’t this.
Depression and nightmares and panic through and through.
Although I’ve been successful there’s always more to do.
There are many things I know I’ve done to help me to survive,
But I will never tell anyone as long as I’m alive.
There’s times it seems there’s no way out, not any to escape,
Because of abuse and turmoil, and trauma, and of rape.
I feel eyes upon me every minute of the day,
Hiding all aroud me, I turn my head away.
I’ve seen them in my bedroom when I’m exhausted and I’m done,
I’ve been seein' 'em for years now, but I’ve never told anyone.
I’m walkin into doors and walls cuz I’m not at all there,
I’ve split from a reality, of what I didn’t want to share.
I can tune out of conversations and with what the outside world is.
And sex just didn’t matter in my relationships.
You can’t rely on feelings when love and trust is first betrayed.
I entered sexual situations I didn’t even really want to make.
Cause I was anxious I was bored, any non-sexual need.
When abuse is matched with affection or protection it misleads.
I say drop what you do and listen, cause now it’s me that calls the shots.
This is the sign of a life, of out of control adults.
I sometimes drink to oblivion, in spite of what I know.
I sometimes create chaos, anywhere I go.
Always anxious, always have to move to help me to forget,
feelings of little value, or of humiliation yet.
Because there was no one there for me, I expect people to leave.
So I repeatedly test them, this is what you’ve done to me.
I know the way I’ve overworked myself has turned out positively
And many other people don’t have my opportunities,
but goodness yeah, you can make it,
You are well on your way to heal,
Because you already know it,
and you already know the deal.
You are not alone this is sadism,
and this is not your fault.
And who would choose to live through this,
no it is not yours at all,
and you know that this was given to you,
so let’s put it out of your home.
And you know that this is not yours,
And you are not alone.
 
That there, that's not me
I go where I please
I walk through walls
I float down the Liffey
I'm not here
This isn't happening
I'm not here, I'm not here
In a little while
I'll be gone
The moment's already passed
Yeah, it's gone
I'm not here
This isn't happening
I'm not here, I'm not here
Strobe lights and blown speakers
Fireworks and hurricanes
I'm not here
This isn't happening
I'm not here, I'm not here....

-Radiohead, How To Disappear Completely
 
Annie Lennox--I saved the world today

Monday finds you like a bomb
Thats been left ticking there too long
Youre bleeding
Some days theres nothing left to learn
From the point of no return
Youre leaving

Hey hey I saved the world today
Everybodys happy now
The bad things gone away
And everybodys happy now
The good things here to stay
Please let it stay

Theres a million mouths to feed
And Ive got everything I need
Im breathing
And theres a hurting thing inside
But Ive got everything to hide
Im grieving

Hey hey I saved the world today
Everybodys happy now
The bad things gone away
And everybodys happy now
The good things here to stay
Please let it stay

Doo doo doo doo doo the good thing

Hey hey I saved the world today
Everybodys happy now
The bad things gone away
And everybodys happy now
The good things here to stay
Please let it stay

Everybodys happy now

and

1,000 beautiful things Annie Lennox

Every day I write the list
Of reasons why I still believe they do exist
(a thousand beautiful things)
And even though it's hard to see
The glass is full and not half empty
(a thousand beautiful things)
So... light me up like the sun
To cool down with your rain
I never want to close my eyes again
Never close my eyes
Never close my eyes

I thank you for the air to breathe
The heart to beat
The eyes to see again
(a thousand beautiful things)
And all the things that's been and done
The battle's won
The good and bad in everyone
(this is mine to remember)
So ...
Here I go again
Singin' by your window
Pickin' up the pieces of what's left to find

The world was meant for you and me
To figure out our destiny
(a thousand beautiful things)
To live
To die
To breathe
To sleep
To try to make your life complete
(yes yes)
So ...
Light me up like the sun
To cool down with your rain
I never want to close my eyes again
Never close my eyes
never close my eyes ...
That is everything I have to say
(that's all I have to say)

And Tori Amos! (I have all her Cds though and will think on which ones to post here).
 
I like this song full stop. As lyrics and music with.
I had to listern to rumours that went up like wildfire regarding my speaking out against one of my abusers, and still ripple every now and again.
Unlike the young woman in this song; who was eventually believed when it all came out. I couldn't address what happened properly, and had absolutely no support when it started coming out that he had done something. And it went on to worsen considerably.

I liked this song from the moment I heard it.
Maybe it is because something was done about the guy that abused her, maybe because she was heard -eventually, believed and someone acted on it- despite who he was.
Its about not believing the lies an abuser tries to cover their tracks with. And about rumours, well, it's about what it is, so...


"A Thousand Trees" - Stereophonics


Standing at the bus stop with my shopping in my hands
And I'm overhearing elderly ladies
As the rumours start to fly
Hear them in the school yard
In the scrap yard
In the chip shop
In the phone box
In the pool hall
At the shoe store
Every corner turn around

It started with a school girl
Who was running
Running home to her Mam and Dad
Told them she was playing, in the change room of the local football side
They said tell us again,
she told them again,
tell us the truth,
they find it hard to believe
'Cause he taught our steve, even trained me, taught our John who's a father of three

Only takes one tree, to make a thousand matches
Only takes one match, to burn a thousand trees
A thousand trees

You see it in the classroom
or the swimming pool
Where the match stick men are made
At the scout hall
At the football
Where the wise we trust are paid
They all honour his name
He did a lot for the game
Got his name knocked up above the sports ground gates
But they're ripping them down,
Stamping the ground
Picture gathers dust in the bar

And it only takes one tree, to make a thousand matches
Only takes one match, to burn a thousand trees
A thousand trees

Wake up, smell the rain
Shake up, he's back to stay
Hasn't been on a holiday
Growing seeds, don't believe
Why he's been away

In the school yard
Changing room
Playing field
Bathroom
Phone box
Office blocks
Corners turned around
They keep doubting the flame, tossing the blame
Got his name knocked up above the sports ground gates
Now they're ripping them down, stamping the ground
Picture gathers dust in the bar

And it only takes one tree, to make a thousand matches
Only takes one match, to burn A thousand trees
A thousand trees
A thousand trees
A thousand trees

"Release Me" - Oh Laura

I am the wilderness locked in a cage
I am a growing force you kept in place
I am a tree reaching for the sun
Please don't hold me down
Please don't hold me down

I am a rolling wave without the motion
A glass of water longing for the ocean
I am an asphalt flower breaking free but you keep stopping me
Release me
Release me

I am the rain that's coming down on you
That you shielded yourself from with a roof
I am the fire burning desperately but you're controlling me
Release me
Release me


~fin


I just love this song
 
Somewhere there's a stolen halo,
I used to watch her wear it well,
Everything would shine,
Wherever she would go,
But looking at her now you'd never tell.

Someone ran away with her innocence,
A memory she can't get out of her head,
And I can only imagine,
What she's feelin' when she's prayin',
Kneelin' at the edge of her bed.

And she says 'Take me away,
Then take me farther,
Surround me now,
And hold, hold, hold me like holy water,
Holy water".

She wants someone to call her angel,
Someone to put the light back in her eyes,
She's looking through the faces,
And unfamiliar places,
She needs someone to hear her when she cries.

And she says "Take me away,
Then take me farther,
Surround me now,
And hold, hold, hold me like holy water".

She just needs a little help,
To wash away the pain she's felt,
She wants to feel the healin' hands,
Of someone who understands.

And she says "Take me away,
Then take me farther,
Surround me now,
And hold, hold, hold me..."

She says "Take me away,
Then take me farther,
Surround me now,
And hold, hold, hold me like holy water
Like holy water
Like holy water
Like holy water

For friendship and good friends:


Lean On Me

Sometimes in our lives we all have pain
We all have sorrow
But if we are wise
We know that there's always tomorrow

Lean on me, when you're not strong
And I'll be your friend
I'll help you carry on
For it won't be long
'Til I'm gonna need
Somebody to lean on

Please swallow your pride
If I have things you need to borrow
For no one can fill those of your needs
That you won't let show

Just call on me baby
when you need a hand
we all need somebody to lean on
I just might have a problem that you'll understand
we all need somebody to lean on

Lean on me, when you're not strong
And I'll be your friend
I'll help you carry on
For it won't be long
'Til I'm gonna need
Somebody to lean on

If there is a load you have to bear
That you can't carry
I'm right up the road
I'll share your load
If you just call me

So just call on me brother, when you need a hand
We all need somebody to lean on
I just might have a problem that you'd understand
We all need somebody to lean on
Lean on me when you're not strong
And I'll be your friend
I'll help you carry on
For it won't be long
Till I'm gonna need
Somebody to lean on
Lean on me...
 
Good one fin! I always loved that song. I've sang it with good friends over the years and we would be singing it to each other. Wonderful feelings it inspires.
