Maybe I've been here before
I know this room, I've walked this floor
I used to live alone before I knew you.

And you can use my skin
To bury secrets in
And I will settle you down
And at my own suggestion,
I will ask no questions
While I do my thing in the background
But all the time, all the time
I’ll know, I’ll know
" God Put A Smile " - Coldplay - reminds me of the piratequeen 'cos she makes me the happiest and I think I put it on her first mix cd and she's has a great smile.
" Let Down " - Radiohead - reminds me of rochelle rochelle because I met her around the time OK COMPUTER came out and I used to know who she was always hanging out with so " you know where you are with " reminded me of that.
" Butterfly " - Tori Amos - reminds me of FroggyJen becase I called her so she would watch Tori perform this on Leno.
"Just Like Heaven " - the Cure - reminde me of Eon because he got me into the cure.
"Live Bed Show" - Pulp - reminds me of the girl with the curious hair because I still have the bed.
For every woman you will leave an open door
You find yourself thinking why can’t I have more?
You say there’s nothing you can do
You tried your best but you were only being you
Oh no
She’s gone
Back wherever she came from
You watched
Her go
Your reaction’s far too slow
You don’t know what you’ve got until you’ve lost it all
Might I suggest you find a softer place to fall
You're a tether ball
Fastened to the end of my head
Who you are and who you want to be
Are competing at opposite ends
And when they hit you back and forth
You squeeze tight around my neck
Darling i can barely breath
But i know that you mean
Absolutely no disrespect
I`ll forget you, I will
While yet you are still burning inside my brain.
Romance is mush,
Stifling those who strive.
I`ll live a lush life in some small dive...
And there I`ll be, while I rot
With the rest of those whose lives are lonely, too..
chimney falls and lover's blaze
thought that I was young
now I've freezin' hands and bloodless veins
as numb as I've become
I'm so tired, I wish I was the moon tonight
last night I dreamt I'd forgotten my name
'cause I sold my soul but I woke just the same
I'm so lonely, I wish I was the moon tonight
god bless me I'm a free man
with no place free to go
paralyzed and collared tight
no pills for what I fear
this is crazy, I wish I was the moon tonight
how will you know if you've found me at last
'cause I'll be the one, be the one, be the one
with my heart in my lap,
I'm so tired, I'm so tired
and I wish I was the moon...
tonight
Hold on, hold out,
I've been thrown against that wall
Never wanted to be picked up
And left alone to fall
Then it touched me just like love,
Still feel it when I trust enough,
Could almost be a lust for life
I can feel it though I'd not know it by sight
I can feel it 'cause I know it's all right
It's all right
Here please forgive me
Could we escape all the bitterness piled upon bitterness
Held in the face of the things that I don't understand
Intellectualize over and over
This helplessness suits us
Funny how quiet has slipped to our corners
Worn all our edges away
>>lyrics
And she runs through her days with a smile on her face
And she runs, and she waits, and I wait
It’s crazy what you could’ve had
I long for your kiss,
for the turn of your mouth
Your body is a long thing
Heading South
If my heart's soaking wet
boy your boots can leave a mess
Come on in now, wipe your feet on my dreams
I did go from wanting to be someone now
I'm drunk and wearing flip - flops on Fifth Avenue
And you said watch my head about it
Baby you said watch my head about it
Lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely eyes,
lonely face, lonely lonely in your place.
Ah you loved me as a loser, but now you're worried that I just might win
You know the way to stop me, but you don't have the discipline
How many nights I prayed for this, to let my work begin
beautiful loser warm hearts have let you down
beautiful loser warm hearts have left you
"I'm a burning hearth," he said
"People see the smoke
But no one comes to warm themselves
I've got no home in this world
Just gravity
Luck and time
