You never looked so good
As you did last night
Underneath the city lights
There walking with your friend
Laughing at the moon
I swear you looked right through me
But I'm still living with your goodbye
And you're just going on with your life
[Chorus:]
How can you just walk on by
Without one tear in your eye?
Don't you have the slightest feelings left for me?
Maybe that's just your way
Of dealing with the pain
Forgetting everything between our rise and fall
Like we never loved at all
You, I hear you're doing fine
Seems like you're doing well
As far as I can tell
Time is leaving us behind
Another week has passed
And still I haven't laughed yet
So tell me what your secret is?
To letting go, letting go like you did, like you did
[Chorus]
Did you forget the magic?
Did you forget the passion?
Did you ever miss me
Ever long to kiss me?
Maybe that's just your way
Of dealing with the pain
Forgetting everything between our rise and fall
Like we never loved at all

Baby tell me where'd you ever learn
To fight without sayin' a word
Then waltz back into my life
Like it's all gonna be alright
Don't you know how much it hurts
When we don't talk
When we don't touch
When it doesn't feel like we're even in love
It matters to me
When I don't know what to say
Don't know what to do
Don't know if it really even matters to you
How can I make you see
It matters to me
Maybe I still don't understand
The distance between a woman and a man
So tell me how far it is
And how you can love like this
'Cause I'm not sure I can
When we don't talk
When we don't touch
When it doesn't feel like we're even in love
It matters to me
When I don't know what to say
Don't know what to do
Don't know if it really even matters to you
How can I make you see
It matters to me
Been alot that I've been through
I cried a tear a time or two
Baby, you know I cried some over you, yeah
Had my heart kicked to the ground
Love ripped me up and tore me down, baby
But that ain't enough to break me
Cuz I'll rise above it
And I'll pick myself up
And I'll dust the pain off my heart
[CHORUS]
And I'll be alright
And I'll love again
And the wounds will mend
I'm bruised but not broken
And the pain will fade
I'll get back on my feet
It's not the end of me
My heart is still open
I'm bruised but not broken
Been alot of tears stained nights
I thought the tears were here for life, baby
The hurt came on and held on tight, yeah
Took a chance, I took a fall
Love broke my heart and shattered all my dreams
But I won't be down on my knees
Cuz I'll rise above it
And I'll pick myself up
And I'll shake the rain out of my heart
[CHORUS]
And I'll be alright
And I'll love again
And the wounds will mend
I'm bruised but not broken
And the pain will fade
I'll get back on my feet
It's not the end of me
My heart is still open
I'm bruised but not broken
Gonna pick my heart up
Take my life back
Shake the hurt away
Pull myself together, put the pieces back in place
I learned love's so hard
Love left my soul scarred
I was shattered inside
[CHORUS]
And I'll be alright
And I'll love again
And the wounds will mend
I'm bruised but not broken
And the pain will fade
I'll get back on my feet
It's not the end of me
My heart is still open
I'm bruised but not broken
Been alot that I've been through
I cried a tear a time or two ...
Cool. I love Joss Stone. She could have come out in the 70s and her music would have fit in that era! Like Carly Simon, Janis Joplin, ...

Loving you
Isn`t the right thing to do
How can I ever change things
That I feel
If I could
Maybe I`d give you my world
How can I
When you won`t take it from me
You can go your own way
Go your own way
You can call it
Another lonely day
You can go your own way
Go your own way
Tell me why
Everything turned around Packing up Shacking up is all you wanna do
If I could
Baby I`d give you my world
Open up
Everything`s waiting for you
Uou can go your own way
Go your own way
You can call it
Another lonely day
You can go your own way
Go your own way

Here's one for the healing. Some of you might not be there yet but it's good stuff.
Don Henley - Heart of the Matter
I got the call today, I didn't wanna hear
But I knew that it would come
An old true friend of ours was talkin' on the phone
She said you found someone
And I thought of all the bad luck,
And the struggles we went through
And how I lost me and you lost you
What are these voices outside love's open door
Make us throw off our contentment
And beg for something more?
I'm learning to live without you now
But I miss you sometimes
The more I know, the less I understand
All the things I thought I knew, I'm learning again
I've been tryin' to get down to the Heart of the Matter
But my will gets weak
And my thoughts seem to scatter
But I think it's about forgiveness
Forgiveness
Even if, even if you don't love me anymore
These times are so uncertain
There's a yearning undefined
...People filled with rage
We all need a little tenderness
How can love survive in such a graceless age
The trust and self-assurance that can lead to happiness
They're the very things we kill, I guess
Pride and competition cannot fill these empty arms
And the work I put between us,
Doesn't keep me warm
I'm learning to live without you now
But I miss you, Baby
The more I know, the less I understand
All the things I thought I figured out, I have to learn again
I've been tryin' to get down to the Heart of the Matter
But everything changes
And my friends seem to scatter
But I think it's about forgiveness
Forgiveness
Even if, even if you don't love me anymore
There are people in your life who've come and gone
They let you down and hurt your pride
Better put it all behind you; life goes on
You keep carryin' that anger, it'll eat you inside
I've been tryin' to get down to the Heart of the Matter
But my will gets weak
And my thoughts seem to scatter
But I think it's about forgiveness
Forgiveness
Even if, even if you don't love me anymore
I've been tryin' to get down to the Heart of the Matter
Because the flesh will get weak
And the ashes will scatter
So I'm thinkin' about forgiveness
Forgiveness
Even if, even if you don't love me anymore

Take a Bow - Madonna
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Take a bow, the night is over
This masquerade is getting older
Lights are low, the curtains down
There's no one here
[There's no one here, there's no one in the crowd]
Say your lines but do you feel them
Do you mean what you say when there's no one around [no one around]
Watching you, watching me, one lonely star
[One lonely star you don't know who you are]
Chorus:
I've always been in love with you [always with you]
I guess you've always known it's true [you know it's true]
You took my love for granted, why oh why
The show is over, say good-bye
Say good-bye [bye bye], say good-bye
Make them laugh, it comes so easy
When you get to the part
Where you're breaking my heart [breaking my heart]
Hide behind your smile, all the world loves a clown
[Just make 'em smile the whole world loves a clown]
Wish you well, I cannot stay
You deserve an award for the role that you played [role that you played]
No more masquerade, you're one lonely star
[One lonely star and you don't know who you are]
(chorus, repeat)
Say good-bye [bye bye], say good-bye
All the world is a stage [world is a stage]
And everyone has their part [has their part]
But how was I to know which way the story'd go
How was I to know you'd break
[You'd break, you'd break, you'd break]
You'd break my heart
I've always been in love with you
[I've always been in love with you]
Guess you've always known
You took my love for granted, why oh why
The show is over, say good-bye
Sometimes in the morning I am petrified and can't move
Awake but cannot open my eyes
And the weight is crushing down on my lungs
I know I can't breathe
And hope someone will save me this time
And your mother's still callin you insane and high
Swearin it's different this time
And you tell her to give in to the demons that possess her
That god never blessed her insides
Then you hang up the phone and feel badly for upsetting things
Crawl back into bed to dream of a time
When your heart was open wide and you love things just because
Like the sick and dying
And sometimes when you're on
You're really ****in on
And your friends they sing along
And they love you
But the lows are so extreme
That the good seems ****in cheap
And it teases you for weeks in its absence
But you'll fight and you'll make it through
You'll fake it if you have to
And you'll show up for work with a smile
You'll be better
And You'll be smarter
And More grown up and a better daughter or son
And a real good friend
And you'll be awake
You'll be alert
You'll be positive though it hurts
And you'll laugh and embrace all your friends
And you'll be a real good listener
You'll be honest
You'll be brave
You'll be handsome and you'll be beautiful
You'll be happy
Your ship may be comin in
You're weak but not givin in
To the cries and the wails of the valley below
And your ship may be comin in
You're weak but not givin in
And you'll fight it you'll go out fightin all of em
I love this band, had been wanting to see them in concert forever. Thank God they started touring again, got to see them last year.
Appropriate song for leavers:
Nobody Home
Don’t run too fast
Like a shot from a gun
Don’t jump too high
And knock out the sun
Don’t stray too far
Out on your own
When you finally come knocking
When you finally come knocking
There’ll be nobody home
Nobody home
Don’t pull too hard
Like a kite in the wind
You’ll break the string
When I reel you in
Don’t take off flying
All on your own
When you finally come knocking
When you finally come knocking
There’ll be nobody home
Nobody home
You say you’re feeling locked inside
Stuck inside to stay
You wanna fly away
There’s nothing I can do
To help you make your play
Make your getaway
Don’t dream too wild
And shoot for the moon
Don’t ride your heart
Like a balloon
Don’t blow away
To places unknown
Cause when you finally coming knocking
When you finally come knocking
There’ll be nobody home
Nobody home
Don’t run too fast
Like a shot from a gun
Don’t jump too high
And knock out the sun
Don’t stray too far
Out on your own
Cause when you finally come knocking
When you finally come knocking
There’ll be nobody home
Nobody home
When you finally come knocking
When you finally come knocking
There’ll be nobody home
Nobody home
When you finally come knocking
When you finally come knocking
There’ll be nobody home
Nobody home
Quits
What do we call it now
It isn't marriage anymore
Call it new and different
It's not the way it was before
Out of all the words to choose from
There's only one that fits
Call it what you want to
I just call it quits
We've come down to the place
Where love barely fits
Call it what you want to
I call it quits
Turn and walk away
Across the desert of our hearts
Loves kinda said that we've run out of time
And though we once had something
No words could tear apart
Now you be your's and I'll be mine
We've come down to the place
Where love barely fits
Call it what you want to
I call it quits
Call our friends
And tell them...
Oh tell them that we just don't care
Tell them dreams of flowers
But our garden's bare
Call it separation, independence
Divorce, if that word fits
Call it what you want to
I just call it quits
We've come down to the place
Where love barely fits
Call it what you want to
I call it quits

She's Actin' Single, I'm Drinkin' Double
I've seen men look at before
And they think, I don't see them
I'd like to think it makes me proud
But, I'm only.. fooling me
I know she'll be lookin' back
The minute I'm not there
While she pours herself on some stranger
I pour myself a drink somewhere
She's acting single
I'm drinking double
I hide my pain
I drown my troubles
My heart is breaking
Like the tiny bubbles
She's acting single
I'm drinking doubles
I know all she plans to do
But I don't know where or when
If I ask who that stranger was
She'll just say, "an old friend"
I'm not weak, I tell myself
I stay because I'm strong
The truth is, I'm not man enough
To stop her from doing me wrong
She's acting single
I'm drinking doubles
I hide my pain
I drown my troubles
My heart is breaking
Like the tiny bubbles
She's acting single
I'm drinking doubles
She's acting single
I'm drinking doubles
I hide my pain
I drown my troubles
I have always loved this song.....very sad but still love it. I just substitute the 'she' for 'he' when I sing it out loud!!!
I've been contemplating suicide ...
but it really doesn't suit my style.
So I think I'll just act bored instead,
and contain the blood I could have shed.
She makes me feel so weary
My heart is really on its knees.
But I keep the poker face so well
that even mother couldn't tell
I keep her photograph against my heart,
'cause in my life she plays a starring part.
Our love can hold on cigarettes.
There is no room for cheap regrets.
She makes me feel so weary.
My heart is really on its knees.
But I keep the poker face so well
that even mother couldn't tell.
