Guest Leftie Posted October 13, 2004 Share Posted October 13, 2004 These words really makes me want to cry sometimes: Close your eyes and I’ll kiss you, Tomorrow I’ll miss you, Remember I’ll always be true, And then while I’m away, I’ll write home every day, And I’ll send all my loving to you. I’ll pretend I am kissing, The lips I am missing, And hope that my dreams will come true, And then while I’m away, I’ll write home every day, And I’ll send all my loving to you. All my loving, I will send to you, All my loving, darling, I’ll be true. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Is there anybody going to listen to my story, All about the girl who came to stay? She’s the kind of girl you want so much it makes you sorry, Still you don’t regret a single day. Ah girl, girl. When I think of all the times I tried so hard to leave her, She will turn to me and start to cry, And she promises the earth to me and I believe her, After all this time, I don’t know why. Ah girl, girl. She’s the kind of girl who puts you down, When friends are there, you feel a fool, When you say she’s looking good, She acts as if it’s understood, She’s cool - oh. Ah girl, girl. Was she told when she was young the pain would lead to pleasure? Did she understand it when they said That a man must break his back to earn his day of leisure, Will she still believe it when he’s dead? Ah girl, girl. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- He’s a real Nowhere Man, Sitting in his Nowhere Land, Making all his Nowhere plans for nobody. Doesn’t have a point of view, Knows not where he’s going to, Isn’t he a bit like you and me? Nowhere man please listen, You don't know what you're missing, Nowhere Man, the world is at your command. He’s as blind as he can be, Just sees what he wants to see, Nowhere Man can you see me at all? Nowhere Man don’t worry, Take your time, don’t hurry, Leave it all till somebody else, Lends you a hand. Doesn’t have a point of view, Knows not where he’s going to, Isn’t he a bit like you and me? Nowhere Man please listen, You don't know what you're missing, Nowhere Man, the world is at your command. He’s a real Nowhere Man, Sitting in his Nowhere Land, Making all his Nowhere plans for nobody. Making all his Nowhere plans for nobody. Making all his Nowhere plans for nobody...

Guest Leftie Posted October 15, 2004 Share Posted October 15, 2004 Tall and tan and young and lovely The girl from Ipanema goes walking And when she passes, each one she passes goes - ah When she walks, she's like a samba That swings so cool and sways so gentle That when she passes, each one she passes goes - ooh But I watch her so sadly How can I tell her I love her Yes I would give my heart gladly But each day, when she walks to the sea She looks straight ahead, not at me Tall, and tan, and young, and lovely The girl from Ipanema goes walking And when she passes, I smile - but she doesn't see.. She just doesn't see, she never sees me... (Stan Getz & Astrud Gilberto - "The Girl From Ipanema") -------------------------------------------------------------------------- All the stars may shine bright All the clouds may be white But when you smile Ohh how I feel so good That I can hardly wait To hold you Enfold you Never enough Render your heart to me All mine....... You have to be From that cloud, number nine Danger starts the sharp incline And such sad regrets Ohh as those starry skies As they swiftly fall Make no mistake You shan't escape Tethered and tied There's nowhere to hide from me All mine.... You have to be Don't resist We shall exist Until the day I die Until the day I die All mine....... You have to be (Portishead - "All Mine") -------------------------------------------------------------------------- This girl I know needs some shelter She don't believe anyone can help her She's doing so much harm, doing so much damage But you don't want to get involved You tell her she can manage And you can't change the way she feels But you could put your arms around her I know you want to live yourself But could you forgive yourself If you left her just the way You found her I stand in front of you I'll take the force of the blow Protection... You're a boy and i'm a girl But you know you can lean on me And I don't have no fear I'll take on any man here Who says that's not the way it should be I stand in front of you I'll take the force of the blow Protection... She's a girl and you're a boy Sometimes you look so small, look so small You've got a baby of your own When your baby's gone, she'll be the one To catch you when you fall I stand in front of you I'll take the force of the blow Protection... You're a girl and i'm a boy... Sometimes you look so small, need some shelter Just runnin' round and round, helter skelter And I've leaned on me for years Now you can lean on me And that's more than love, that's the way it should be Now I can't change the way you feel But I can put my arms around you That's just part of the deal That's the way I feel I'll put my arms around you I stand in front of you I'll take the force of the blow Protection... (Massive Attack & Tracy Thorn - "Protection") -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Don't drag me down Just because you're down And just cause you're blue Don't make me too And though you've found You need more than me Don't talk to me About being free That's freedom without love And magic without love Magic without love Hear me say Better things will surely come our way Hear me say Better things will surely come our way You say the magic's gone Well i'm not a magician You say the spark's gone Well get an electrician And save your line about needing to be free All that's bullshit babe You just want rid of me You want freedom without love And magic without love Magic without love Yeah Hear me say Better things will surely come my way Hear me say Better things will surely come my way (Massive Attack & Tracy Thorn - "Better Things") Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Nevada Posted October 28, 2004 Share Posted October 28, 2004 1 more: (original version performed by Don McLean can be downloaded here: http://www.rax.ru/click?www.files.li.ru/mp3/Gordeew/Originals/Don_Mclean-American_Pie.mp3) A long, long time ago... I can still remember How that music used to make me smile. And I knew if I had my chance That I could make those people dance And, maybe, they'd be happy for a while. But february made me shiver With every paper I'd deliver. Bad news on the doorstep; I couldn?t take one more step. I can?t remember if I cried When I read about his widowed bride, But something touched me deep inside The day the music died. So bye-bye, miss american pie. Drove my chevy to the levee, But the levee was dry. And them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye Singin', "this'll be the day that I die. "this'll be the day that I die." Did you write the book of love, And do you have faith in God above, If the Bible tells you so? Do you believe in rock ?n roll, Can music save your mortal soul, And can you teach me how to dance real slow? Well, I know that you?re in love with him `cause I saw you dancin' in the gym. You both kicked off your shoes. Man, I dig those rhythm and blues. I was a lonely teenage broncin' buck With a pink carnation and a pickup truck, But I knew I was out of luck The day the music died. I started singin', ***refrain Now for ten years we've been on our own And moss grows fat on a rollin' stone, But that?s not how it used to be. When the jester sang for the king and queen, In a coat he borrowed from james dean And a voice that came from you and me, Oh, and while the king was looking down, The jester stole his thorny crown. The courtroom was adjourned; No verdict was returned. And while lennon read a book of marx, The quartet practiced in the park, And we sang dirges in the dark The day the music died. We were singing, ***refrain Helter skelter in a summer swelter. The birds flew off with a fallout shelter, Eight miles high and falling fast. It landed foul on the grass. The players tried for a forward pass, With the jester on the sidelines in a cast. Now the half-time air was sweet perfume While the sergeants played a marching tune. We all got up to dance, Oh, but we never got the chance! `cause the players tried to take the field; The marching band refused to yield. Do you recall what was revealed The day the music died? We started singing, ***refrain Oh, and there we were all in one place, A generation lost in space With no time left to start again. So come on: jack be nimble, jack be quick! Jack flash sat on a candlestick Cause fire is the devil's only friend. Oh, and as I watched him on the stage My hands were clenched in fists of rage. No angel born in hell Could break that satan's spell. And as the flames climbed high into the night To light the sacrificial rite, I saw satan laughing with delight The day the music died He was singing, ***refrain I met a girl who sang the blues And I asked her for some happy news, But she just smiled and turned away. I went down to the sacred store Where I?d heard the music years before, But the man there said the music wouldn't play. And in the streets: the children screamed, The lovers cried, and the poets dreamed. But not a word was spoken; The church bells all were broken. And the three men I admire most: The father, son, and the holy ghost, They caught the last train for the coast The day the music died. And they were singing, ***refrain They were singing, "bye-bye, miss american pie." Drove my chevy to the levee, But the levee was dry. Them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye Singin', "this'll be the day that I die." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stessi Posted December 23, 2004 Share Posted December 23, 2004 (************) Angel of fire or Angel of cold.. Tell me where is your home? You lost your way in this endless land, You're searching for love, but there is only hate around.. How can you live in this world?.. All souls are welcome you in mystic chamber of night.. All stars are singing when you are flying in the sky.. Where is your home? Far.. Far from Earth... But you lost your way in this endless land.. And you can't return.. You're still searching...

Leonardo Posted December 23, 2004 Share Posted December 23, 2004 Quote .....(пииип).. всегда путалась Пассивный/Активный залог I can't understand why?.. ................................. My favourite song - Queen - Too Much Love Will Kill You I'm just the pieces of the man I used to be. Too many bitter tears raining down on me I'm far away from home And I've been facing this alone for much too long. I feel like no-one ever told the truth to me About growing up and what a struggle it would be. In my tangled state of mind. I've been looking back to find where I went wrong. Too much love will kill you If you can't make up your mind. Torn between a lover and the love you leave behind. You're headed for disaster 'cos you never read the signs: Too much love will kill you - every time I'm just the shadow of the man I used to be. And it seems there's no way out this for me. I used to bring you sunshine But all I ever do is bring you down. How would it be if you were standing in my shoes. Can't you see that it's impossible to choose? No there's making sense of it Cause every way I go I have to lose. Too much love will kill you Just as sure as none at all. It'll drain the power that's in you Make you plead and scream and crawl. And the pain will make you crazy You're the victim of your crime. Too much love will kill you Every time. Too much love will kill you It'll make your life a lie. Yes, too much love will kill you And you won't understand why. You'd give your life you'd sell your soul But here it comes again - Too much love will kill you In the end... In the end. ©May,Musker,Lamers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Oldman Posted December 24, 2004 Share Posted December 24, 2004 I tried hard to find nice answer:). But came to conclusion that much easier will be write something by myself... May be ... May be later I'll do it. But right now ... It's not my own, but very nice and, from my point of view, very much becomes to you http://www.poetry-archive.com/t_pic.gifHE moonlight fades from flower and tree, And the stars dim one by one; The tale is told, the song is sung, And the Fairy feast is done. The night-wind rocks the sleeping flowers, And sings to them, soft and low. The early birds erelong will wake: 'Tis time for the Elves to go. O'er the sleeping earth we silently pass, Unseen by mortal eye, And send sweet dreams, as we lightly float Through the quiet moonlit sky;-- For the stars' soft eyes alone may see, And the flowers alone may know, The feasts we hold, the tales we tell: So 'tis time for the Elves to go. From bird, and blossom, and bee, We learn the lessons they teach; And seek, by kindly deeds, to win A loving friend in each. And though unseen on earth we dwell, Sweet voices whisper low, And gentle hearts most joyously greet The Elves where'er they go. When next we meet in the Fairy dell, May the silver moon's soft light Shine then on faces gay as now, And Elfin hearts as light. Now spread each wing, for the eastern sky With sunlight soon will glow. The morning star shall light us home: Farewell! for the Elves must go. by Louisa May Alcott (1832-1888) I wasn't reading this, I was singing (by the voice of Candice Night) ... And tried to imagine how it could be in Blackmore's Night style I apologize for my mistakes... Of course they are... But it's very difficult with my "technical" English to tell something like that...
