How long have I
Been in this storm
So overwhelmed by the ocean's shapeless form
Water's getting harder to tread
With these waves crashing over my head
If I could just see you
Everything will be alright
If I'd see you
This darkness will turn to light
And I will walk on water
And you will catch me if I fall
And I will get lost into your eyes
I know everything will be alright
I know everything is alright
I know you didn't
Bring me out here to drown
So why am I 10 feet under and upside down
Barely surviving has become my purpose
Cause I'm so used to living underneath the surface
If I could just see you
Everything will be alright
If I'd see you
This darkness will turn to light
And I will walk on water
And you will catch me if I fall
And I will get lost into your eyes
I know everything will be alright
And I will walk on water
And you will catch me if I fall
And I will get lost into your eyes
I know everything will be alright
I know everything is alright

Coldplay
Come up to meet you, tell you I'm sorry
You don't know how lovely you are
I had to find you, tell you I need you
Tell you I set you apart
You don't know how lovely you are
I had to find you, tell you I need you
Tell you I set you apart
Tell me your secrets and ask me your questions
Oh, let's go back to the start
Running in circles, coming up tails
Heads on a science apart
Oh, let's go back to the start
Running in circles, coming up tails
Heads on a science apart
Nobody said it was easy
It's such a shame for us to part
Nobody said it was easy
No one ever said it would be this hard
Oh, take me back to the start
It's such a shame for us to part
Nobody said it was easy
No one ever said it would be this hard
Oh, take me back to the start
I was just guessing at numbers and figures
Pulling your puzzles apart
Questions of science, science and progress
Don't speak as loud as my heart
Pulling your puzzles apart
Questions of science, science and progress
Don't speak as loud as my heart
Tell me you love me, come back and haunt me
Oh and I rush to the start
Running in circles, chasing our tails
Coming back as we are
Oh and I rush to the start
Running in circles, chasing our tails
Coming back as we are
Nobody said it was easy
Oh, it's such a shame for us to part
Nobody said it was easy
No one ever said it would be this hard
I'm going back to the start
Oh, it's such a shame for us to part
Nobody said it was easy
No one ever said it would be this hard
I'm going back to the start

Home - Phillip Phillips
Hold on, to me as we go
As we roll down this unfamiliar road
And although this wave (wave) is stringing us along
Just know you're not alone
Cause I'm gonna make this place your home
Settle down, it'll all be clear
Don't pay no mind to the demons
They fill you with fear
The trouble it might drag you down
If you get lost, you can always be found
Just know you're not alone
Cause I'm gonna make this place your home
As we roll down this unfamiliar road
And although this wave (wave) is stringing us along
Just know you're not alone
Cause I'm gonna make this place your home
Settle down, it'll all be clear
Don't pay no mind to the demons
They fill you with fear
The trouble it might drag you down
If you get lost, you can always be found
Just know you're not alone
Cause I'm gonna make this place your home

Chris Isaak, one of the best!
The world was on fire and no one could save me but you.
It's strange what desire will make foolish people do.
I never dreamed that I'd meet somebody like you.
And I never dreamed that I knew somebody like you.
No, I don't want to fall in love. (This world is only gonna break your heart)
No, I don't want to fall in love. (This world is only gonna break your heart)
With you. With you. (This world is only gonna break your heart)
What a wicked game to play, to make me feel this way.
What a wicked thing to do, to let me dream of you.
What a wicked thing to say, you never felt this way.
What a wicked thing to do, to make me dream of you and,
I want to fall in love. (This world is only gonna break your heart)
No, I want to fall in love. (This world is only gonna break your heart)
With you.
The world was on fire and no one could save me but you.
It's strange what desire will make foolish people do.
I never dreamed that I'd love somebody like you.
And I never dreamed that I'd lose somebody like you no,
No, I want to fall in love. (This world is only gonna break your heart)
No, I want to fall in love. (This world is only gonna break your heart)
With you. (This world is only gonna break your heart)
With you. (This world is only gonna break your heart)
No, I... (This world is only gonna break your heart)
(This world is only gonna break your heart)
Nobody loves no one.
It's strange what desire will make foolish people do.
I never dreamed that I'd meet somebody like you.
And I never dreamed that I knew somebody like you.
No, I don't want to fall in love. (This world is only gonna break your heart)
No, I don't want to fall in love. (This world is only gonna break your heart)
With you. With you. (This world is only gonna break your heart)
What a wicked game to play, to make me feel this way.
What a wicked thing to do, to let me dream of you.
What a wicked thing to say, you never felt this way.
What a wicked thing to do, to make me dream of you and,
I want to fall in love. (This world is only gonna break your heart)
No, I want to fall in love. (This world is only gonna break your heart)
With you.

With you. (This world is only gonna break your heart)
With you. (This world is only gonna break your heart)
No, I... (This world is only gonna break your heart)
(This world is only gonna break your heart)
Nobody loves no one.

This one was on repeat half the afternoon while I was sewing. It's funny how you can listen to the same album over and over and suddenly hear the words to the song, even those you've heard many times before.
Wake up my sweet child
There's something I've got to say to you tonight
And it's time you took a look at me
'Cause there's so much more to me than meets the eye
There's something I've got to say to you tonight
And it's time you took a look at me
'Cause there's so much more to me than meets the eye
Well, there's more to love than makin' time
The harder you look the more you'll find
It's never easy no matter what they say
The harder you look the more you'll find
It's never easy no matter what they say
Love's a hard game to play
The heart's the price that you pay
Love's a hard game to play
No matter what they say
Win or lose, no matter what they say
Well love's a hard game to play
The heart's the price that you pay
Love's a hard game to play
No matter what they say
Win or lose, no matter what they say
Well love's a hard game to play
The problem here is not my fear
The trouble is you can't convince yourself
For tonight, let's lose the past, make love last
Put our worries on the shelf
The trouble is you can't convince yourself
For tonight, let's lose the past, make love last
Put our worries on the shelf
We've been through thick and thin and back again
And we can endure love's sweet pain
Well remember, starting the fire is easy
The hardest part is learning how to keep the flame
And we can endure love's sweet pain
Well remember, starting the fire is easy
The hardest part is learning how to keep the flame
Love's like walking a real fine line
You get too close you'll go blind
Let go too long it, will all drift away
You get too close you'll go blind
Let go too long it, will all drift away
Love's a hard game to play
The heart's the price that you pay
Love's a hard game to play
No matter what they say
So win or lose, no matter what you say
The heart's the price that you pay
Love's a hard game to play
No matter what they say
So win or lose, no matter what you say
Just when I feel like I'm losin' you
I hear those voices call
They say it's better to have lost at love
Than never to have loved at all
Lose or win, stand or fall, stand tall
I hear those voices call
They say it's better to have lost at love
Than never to have loved at all
Lose or win, stand or fall, stand tall
Well, there's more to love than makin' time
The harder you look, the more you'll find
It's never easy, no matter what they say
Love's a hard game to play, baby
The harder you look, the more you'll find
It's never easy, no matter what they say
Love's a hard game to play, baby
Love's a hard game to play
The heart's the price that you pay
Love's a hard game to play
No matter what you say
The heart's the price that you pay
Love's a hard game to play
No matter what you say
Love's a hard game to play
The heart's the price you pay
Love's a hard game to play
No matter what they say
'Cause win or lose, no matter what they say
Well love's a hard game to play
The heart's the price you pay
Love's a hard game to play
No matter what they say
'Cause win or lose, no matter what they say
Well love's a hard game to play
It's a hard game
It's a hard game to play
It's a hard game to play
She's got her ticket - Tracy Chapman
This song popped into my head sort of out of nowhere in the middle of a conversation this afternoon, and said there until finally I had to use Stevie Nicks to get something else going through my head. Very different from each other, which is what usually works for me when I have a song, or part of a song playing in a loop in my monkey mind.
That has happened more often than not the last few days. I'm glad to replace each loop with a new one. Tonight it's Pasty Cline, and still a bit of Stevie Nicks. I wonder which one will get me to sleep tonight, or keep me awake....
she's got her ticket I think she's gonna use it. think she's going to fly away. no one should try to stop her, persuade her with their power. she says that her mind is made up
she's got her ticket I think she's going to use it, think she's going to fly away. no one should try to stop her, persuade her with their power. she says that her mind it made up.
why not leave, why not go away. too much hatred, corruption and greed. give your life and invariably they leave you with nothing.
young girl ain't got no chances, no roots to keep her strong. she shed all pretenses that someday she'll belong. some folks call her a run away, a failure in the race, but she knows where her ticket takes her and she will find her place in the sun.
