Gin Blossoms "Hey Jealousy"

But baby I would let
your darkness
invade me
you could maybe turn this white light
into navy
before you leave

[meretricious]

tori amos "barons of suburbia"

nobody's buying what i'm selling anymore
they shuffle past me
when i'm passed out on the floor
and now i see that all the things
you said before are right now

[FineyMcFine]

This one is hard. I don't know it, and I can't google it. Hint?

[dorksrcool]

Yes please, we need a hint!

[FineyMcFine]

A little birdie sent me a hint.

"Right Now" by Grey DeLisle

But the song in my head is as loud as a plane
And as long as a train pulling grain
And it follows me around like a three-legged hound
Getting by on two legs
And a sprain

"Ain't I Lonely Tonight" by Susan Werner?

I'm really unsure so let me know if I'm right.

[FineyMcFine]

You are 100% correct! "It's Ain't I Lonely Tonight" by Susan Werner.

Your turn!

[dorksrcool]

Woo hoo! Here's mine....

I always thought the way you talked was neat.
And I dreamed that when you speak, you speak to me.
But you're always out of reach
And I can't control my speech
And I'm scared that when we meet, I'll want to touch you.

And can I just say that with this post I am now "Extra Flamey!" That rules.

[Foomatic]

Catherine Wheel, I Want To Touch You

Close your eyes
Let me touch you now
Let me give you something that is real
Close the door
Leave your fears behind
Let me give you what you're giving me

[onlykaren]

Vast, Flames. Right?

who are you now
and who were you then
that you thought somehow
you could just pretend
that you could figure it all out
the mathematics of regret
so it takes two beers to remember now
and five to forget

[meretricious]

Ani Difranco "So What"

Come on the guy's a fake
what do you love him for?
and it was my mistake
just kicking in his door
and if it's all a game
then what are we crying for?

[hermitfish]

The Frames - "Fake"


Got a charger, no cell phone, I can't call out
Unless it's to cry your name out the open window
To a sky that looks right back
And says it's never seen rain
Sometimes you gotta start clean
You gotta begin not begin again

[FineyMcFine]

the weepies, "Happiness"

She claimed in a loud voice to be a dancer
But I don't think she's cut a rug in years
Listens to the jukebox for her answers
Slowly guzzles twenty-five cent beers

[dorksrcool]

Jimmy Buffett "Woman Goin' Crazy on Caroline Street"

Give me all your paper ma,
so i can buy a train.
They just wanna suck you into being one of them.
Tell her that i'm not in here,
tell her i'm a freak.
Tell her that i fall about every time i speak.

Psychadelic Furs - Dumb Waiter

Look what they've done to my brain, Ma
Well they've cook it like a chicken bone
I think I'm half insane, Ma
Look what they've done to my brain
Ils ont chang ma chanson Ma
Ils ont chang ma chanson
C'est le seul chose je peux fais
Est-ce-que n'est pas bonne, Ma?
Ils ont chang ma chanson

[onlykaren]

The New Seekers - Look What They've Done To My Song, Ma.

So break me
Take me
Just let me
Feel your arms again
Break me
I'll let you make me
Just let me
Feel your love again

Jewel - Break Me

Because I have learned that love is
Beyond what human can imagine,
The more it clears,
The more i have to let you go

[ambersagoddess]

Same Ground, Kitchie Nadal

There you go for the last time
I finally know now what I should have known then
I can still be ruthless if you let me

It's been in my CD player all day.

Something Corporate - Ruthless

You look so beautiful tonight
Remind me how you laid us down
And gently smiled
Before you destroyed my life

[dorksrcool]

Saliva "Rest in Pieces"

Chance reflects on them a while
Love screams so quietly
Slipping back on golden times
Breathing with sweet memories.

[meretricious]

Simple Minds "Promised You a Miracle"

we had a good long life on this planet
when we died we went to heaven
saw that god was really elvis
anway our souls were in the right place
our souls were in the right place

[hermitfish]

Luce - 'Buy a Dog'


You give it away, don’t make ‘em pay and you’re free
And if you’re alone, just pick up the phone, it’s me
I’ll bring nothing to eat but I’ll tickle your feet till you smile
I know they’re closing the store but let’s lay on the floor awhile

[dorksrcool]

"Action" by Clem Snide

Kiss me and tell me it's not broken.
Kiss me and kiss me till I'm dead.
See, I'll give you the stars from the bruised ev 'nin' sky
And a crown of jewels for your head, now.

[Tarafied4Life]

"To You I Bestow" by Mundy. One of the best songs on the Romeo and Juliet soundtrack, IMO.

But tonight he is tired of the lonely
And tommorrow will not be the cure
So he'll just slip away
Find yesterday
And spend one more night with her

[onlykaren]

"The Time Machine" by Collin Raye

Why be alone when we can be together baby
You can make my life worthwhile
And I can make you start to smile

"To Be With You" by Mr Big

Leprechauns floating by
This is your lullaby
Sugarplum finger tips kissing your honey lips
Close your eyes sleepy head
Is it time for your bed
Never forget what I said

[FineyMcFine]

Madonna, "Dear Jessie"

She has many guises
She'll do what you want her to
Playing dead and sweet submission
Cracks the whip deadpan on cue

[dorksrcool]

I can't believe I'm just now getting this one. I love this song! Anyway, it's "Peek-a-Boo" by Siouxsie and the Banshees.

One step forward.
Five steps back.
One cool record in the year of rock-rap.
Yeah we got all the power
getting stabbed in the shower
and we got equal rights on ladies nite.

[Warduke]

FYR by Le Tigre.

Take your records, take your freedom
Take your memories I don't need'em
Take your space and take your reasons

And take your cat and leave my sweater
'Cause we have nothing left to weather
In fact I'll feel a whole lot better

[Foomatic]

You'll Think Of Me, Keith Urban

There's no combination of words
I could put on the back of a postcard
And no song that I could sing, but I can try for your heart
Our dreams, and they are made out of real things
Like a shoebox of photographs with sepia tone loving
