    Trouble - Ray Lamontagne

    Trouble...
    Trouble, trouble, trouble, trouble
    Trouble been doggin' my soul since the day I was born
    Worry...
    Worry, worry, worry, worry
    Worry just will not seem to leave my mind alone
    We'll I've been...
    saved by a woman
    I've been...
    saved by a woman
    I've been...
    saved by a woman
    She won't let me go
    She won't let me go now
    She won't let me go
    She won't let me go now

    Trouble...
    Oh, trouble, trouble, trouble, trouble
    Feels like every time I get back on my feet
    she come around and knock me down again
    Worry...
    Oh, worry, worry, worry, worry
    Sometimes I swear it feels like this worry is my only friend
    We'll I've been saved...
    by a woman
    I've been saved...
    by a woman
    I've been saved...
    by a woman
    She won't let me go
    She won't let me go now
    She won't let me go
    She won't let me go now

    Oh..., Ahhhh....
    Ohhhh
    She good to me now
    She gave me love and affection
    She good tell me now
    She gave me love and affection
    I Said I love her
    Yes I love her
    I said I love her
    I said I love...
    She good to me now
    She's good to me
    She's good to me

    Diamondblue, I didn't know that about Walk On! It's been kinda my personal theme song ever since it came out. Ian that Snow Patrol song chasing cars has been on a loop on my iPod for weeks. It's so beautiful.

    Here's a song that I cannot even believe is sung by Clay Aiken, it is actually a Bon Jovi song he's covered on his new cd and the lyrics really spoke to me a lot...

    "These Open Arms"What if everything you ever took for granted, was gone?
    And everything you ever thought was right, was wrong?
    And what if everyone you ever loved was torn, from the pages of your life?
    Would you reach out for tomorrow, or try to turn back time?

    These open arms will wait for you
    These open arms can pull us through
    Between what's left and left to do
    These open arms
    These open arms
    These open arms will wait for you

    Did you really love the ones you said you loved, think twice.
    And did you make a bit of difference in somebody elses life?
    Tell me, is there someone you can count on when you need a friend?
    Can you see I need a friend?

    These open arms will wait for you
    These open arms can pull us through
    Between whats left and left to do
    These open arms
    These open arms
    These open arms will wait for you

    Surrender your heart, Give in, stop questioning why
    Open your heart up to love & you'll see you will find

    These open arms will wait for you
    These open arms can pull us through
    Between what's left and left to do
    These open arms
    These open arms
    These open arms
    These open arms
    These open arms will wait for you

    And another, from the second Keane CD:

    "The Frog Prince"An old fairytale told me
    The simple heart will be prized again
    A toad will be our king
    And ugly ogres are heroes

    Then you'll shake
    Your fist at the sky
    "Oh why did I rely
    On fashions and small fry?"

    All promises broken
    Feed your people or lose your throne
    And forfeit your whole kingdom
    I'd sooner lose it than still live in it alone

    You were our golden child
    But the gentle and the mild
    Inherit the earth, while

    Your prince's crown
    Cracks and falls down
    Your castle hollow and cold
    You've wandered so far
    From the person you are
    Let go brother, let go
    Cos now we all know

    Soon, someone will put a spell on you
    Perfume, treasure, sorcery, every trick they know
    You will lie in a deep sleep
    That's when

    Your prince's crown
    Cracks and falls down
    Your castle hollow and cold
    You've wandered so far
    From the person you are
    Let go brother, let go
    Cos now we all know...

    (though my alltime favorite Keane song, and perhaps one of my favorite songs of all time, is Somewhere Only We Know...)

    thanks for the tunes this morning everyone...will be listening to some of them that I have and thinking of you all.

    love

    essie

    I'm listening to Erasure singing A Little Respect. Look at the words in bold in the second verse! I'd never noticed them before! Poignant, eh!

    I tried to discover a little something to make me sweeter
    Oh baby refrain from breaking my heart
    Im so in love with you
    Ill be forever blue
    That you give me no reason you know youre making me work so hard
    That you give me no soul
    I hear you calling
    Oh baby please give a little respect to me

    And if I should falter would you open your arms out to me
    We can make love not war and live in peace with our hearts
    Im so in love with you Ill be forever blue
    What religion or reason could drive a man to forsake his lover
    Dont you tell me no soul
    I hear you calling
    Oh baby please give a little respect to me

    Im so in love with you
    Ill be forever blue
    That you give me no reason
    You know youre making me work so hard
    That you give me no soul
    I hear you calling
    Oh baby please give a little respect to me
    Oh baby please give a little respect to me

    Dansk! Ray LaMontagne! What a song writer......*sigh*

    Here's one:

    Empty - Ray LaMontagne

    She lifts her skirt up to her knees
    walks through the garden rows
    with her bare feet laughing.
    I never learned to count my blessings
    I choose instead to dwell in my disasters

    I walk on down the hill
    through grass grown tall and brown
    and still it’s hard somehow to let go of my pain

    On past the busted backs
    of old and rusted Cadillacs
    that sink into this field collecting rain.
    Will I always feel this way?
    so empty, and estranged

    And of these cutthroat busted sunsets
    these cold and damp white mornings I have grown weary.
    If through my cracked and dusty country lips
    I spoke these words out loud
    would no one hear me?

    Lay your blouse across the chair
    let fall the flowers from your hair
    and kiss me with that country mouth so plain

    Outside the rain is tapping on the leaves
    to me it sounds like they’re applauding us
    the quiet love we make
    Will it always feel this way?
    so empty and estranged

    Well I looked my demons in the eye
    Laid bare my chest said do your best destroy me, See I've been to hell and back so many timesI must admit you kinda bore me

    There's a lot of things that can kill a man there's a lot of ways to die; Yes and some already dead who walk beside you
    There's a lot of things I don't understand; why so many people lie
    Well it's the hurt you hide that fuels the fires inside you
    Will I always feel this way
    So empty, so estranged

    I rarely listen to music with lyrics when I am home (I save those for when I go out). Right now my CD player has Rod StewartStardust: The Great American Songbook Volume 3.
