Today Has Songs!

Huzzah!

She Will Be Loved

Beauty queen of only eighteen She
had some trouble with herself
He was always there to help her
She always belonged to someone else

I drove for miles and miles
And wound up at your door
I've had you so many times but somehow
I want more

I don't mind spending every day
Out on your corner in the pouring rain
Look for the girl with the broken smile
Ask her if she wants to stay awhile
And she will be loved
She will be loved

Tap on my window
Knock on my door
I want to make you feel beautiful
I know I tend to get so insecure
It doesn't matter anymore

Its not always rainbows and butterflies
Its compromise that moves us along
My heart is full and my door's always open
You can come anytime you want

I don't mind spending every day
Out on your corner in the pouring rain
Look for the girl with the broken smile
Ask her if she wants to stay awhile
And she will be loved
She will be loved

I know where you hide
Alone in your car
Know all of the things that make you who you are
I know that goodbye
Means nothing at all
Comes back and begs me to catch her every time she falls

--Maroon 5

Spoon

Spoon in spoon,
Stiring my coffee and
I think of you
And turn to the gate
But on my way
Came up with the answers
Scratched my head
And the answers were gone

From hand to hand
Wrists to the elbow red
Blood, sand
Could dad be god?
Crosses cross
Hung out like a wet rag
Forgive you why
You hung me out to dry

Maybe I'm a little crazy
But laughing out loud
Makes it all pass by
Maybe you're a little crazy
But laughing out loud
Makes it all subside

Holding, I'm holding
Falling, I'm still falling

Spoon in spoon
Stirring my coffee
I think of this
And turn to the gate
But on my way crack
Lightening and thunder
Hid my head
And the storm slipped away

Maybe I'm a little crazy
But laughing out loud
Makes it all pass by
Maybe you're a little crazy
But laughing out loud
Makes it all all right
Laughing out loud

(alanis)

From time to time
Minutes and hours
Some move ahead
While some lag behind
Like the balloon
that rise and then vanish
This drop of hope
That falls from his eye

(dave)

Spoon in spoon
Stirring my coffee
I think of this
And turn to go away
But as I walk
The voices behind me say
Sinners sin
Come now and play

Laughing out loud
Come now and play.
-- Dave Matthews Band

Breathe You In

The sound of beating hearts so anxious
A sacred rhythm pulsing with desire
The time we spend alone, it saves us
The things we learn in solitude inspire
Its good to love for love is hard to find
But to love is realized

I can breathe you in
I can taste every moment
And the world in your patient eyes
It will wait 'til we have arrived
I'm so alive
And I breathe you in

I'm breathing in your touch so reckless
I'm breathing in the words
that slip softly from your
fingertips
The one you've blessed is all but helpless
The largest lesson given will impower
Its good to love for love is hard to touch
If this life is large enough

I can breathe you in
I can taste every moment
And the world in your patient eyes
It will wait til we have arrived
I'm so alive
And I breathe you in

Your scent on my pillow
Is enough to get me through
But there's so much more to
learn apart from you
Our time in a bottle
Would be wasted if it were used
When there's so much left for love to prove

So I breathe you in
I can taste every moment
And the world in your patient eyes
It will wait til we have arrived
I'm so alive
And I breathe you in

-- David Mead
