Love that song! but Carole King is the author. Gotta give her credit. James Taylor put his own spin on it and made it great. Thanks for putting that earworm in my head.

EYES LIKE TWINS

I recognize that smile
Our winter was oh so cold
You wore your mysterious cloak just like a child
No careless words were said
We spoke with eyes instead
We looked into each other like long lost friends

But then you went away
And I never heard
You had a summer haunt
You said the ice would kill
But you would not be caught

We have eyes like twins
Where your last thought ends my next begins always
Just one heartbeat away
From everything I mean to say oh
Catch me Im falling for you
Wish for me Ill come running to save you
Touch me Im calling for you
Remember me, I will never betray you
We have eyes like twins

I slept a thousand hours
My heart felt cold as a cowards
You sent a southern breeze like forest fire
I heard those voices too
I dreamed each dream with you
We breathe as one together and shed our tears

But then I woke with you
And my dream came true
Ill never hold you here
I know when winter comes that you will disappear

(chorus)

I see red, when youre in danger
And I see blue, when you are crying
All the pictures I believe
You are no stranger
You are no stranger

(chorus)

Catch me Im falling for you
Remember me, you are no stranger
We have eyes like twins
You are no stranger to me
Just one heartbeat away
Cuimhnich air na daoine o

Nemo me impune lacesset

Let It Snow : Lyrics
* * * *
Oh the weather outside is frightful,
But the fire is so delightful,
And since we've no place to go,
Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!

It doesn't show signs of Pauseping,
And I've bought some corn for popping,
The lights are turned way down low,
Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!

When we finally kiss goodnight,
How I'll hate going out in the storm!
But if you'll really hold me tight,
All the way home I'll be warm.

The fire is slowly dying,
And, my dear, we're still good-bying,
But as long as you love me so,
Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!

_________________________________

"Let It Snow!

The wonderful Christmas song Let It Snow was created by lyricist Sammy Cahn and the composer Jule Styne in 1945.
The words and lyrics of Let It Snow reflect the feeling of warmth and security associated with Christmas and also brings in the more modern customs of popping corn!
The song Let It Snow was reprised in recent years when used in the Bruce Willis film Die Hard which started with the film's hero travelling to meet his family at Christmas".

Happy Christmas (War Is Over) by John Lennon and Yoko Ono

And so this is Christmas
And what have you done
Another year over
And a new one just begun
Ans so this is Christmas
I hope you have fun
The near and the dear one
The old and the young

A very merry Christmas
And a happy New Year
Let's hope it's a good one
Without any fear

And so this is Christmas
For weak and for strong
For rich and the poor ones
The world is so wrong
And so happy Christmas
For black and for white
For yellow and red ones
Let's stop all the fight

A very merry Christmas
And a happy New Year
Let's hope it's a good one
Without any fear
And so this is Christmas
And what have we done
Another year over
And a new one just begun

And so this is Christmas
I hope you have fun
The near and the dear one
The old and the young
A very merry Christmas
And a happy New Year
Let's hope it's a good one
Without any fear

War is over over
If you want it
War is over
Now...

"I'll Be Home For Christmas"

I'll be home for Christmas;
You can play on me.
Please have snow and mistletoe
And presents on the tree.

Christmas Eve will find me
Where the love-light gleams.
I'll be home for Christmas
If only in my dreams.

And presents on the tree.
Christmas Eve will find me
Where the love-light gleams.
I'll be home for Christmas
If only in my dreams.

Hot Dog lyrics- EP'

"Hot dog, you say you're really coming back
Hot dog, I'm waiting at the railway track
Hot dog, you say you're coming home for good

Hot dog, I'm going to keep knocking on wood
And baby, I can hardly wait
I'm gonna meet you at the gate, hot dog

I fell in love with you and then you went away
But now you're coming home to stay
Hot dog, soon everything will be all right
Hot dog, we're gonna have a ball tonight
I've got a pocketful of dimes
It's gonna be just like old times, hot dog

You went away and every day was misery
But now you're coming back to me
Hot dog, my heart is gonna go insane
Hot dog, when you come walking off the train
Oh how lonely I have been
But when that Santa Fe pulls in
Hot dog, baby, baby, hot dog"

"You are viewing lyrics of Hot Dog by ELVIS PRESLEY from the album Loving You (1957) at LyricsAndSongs.COM "

* That ole' Freight Train is once again roaring down that track' like the midnight special'.

In The House of Stone & Light

Post by Samaya11 » 01-26-2007 01:32 AM

I'm feeling restless & curious...
perfect mood to listen to Coast to Coast!

You can listen to the song here: (If you like Cusco & Midnight in the Desert Song , you'll definitely like this)

mp3.com/tracks/1707499/dl_streams.html [mp3.com]
--------------

Song 1 :: In the House of Stone and the Light :: Martin Page

Oh mount Kailas uncover me
Come my restoration wash my body clean
I've been walking a long and crooked path
Where the walls have fallen
And broken me in half

1-I'm telling you
I will not rest 'til I lay down my head

I'm gonna go in the house of stone and light
I shall not cry for the blind mind I leave behind
When I go in the house of stone and light, yeah
In the house of stone and light

Holy lady show me my soul
Tell me of that place where I must surely go
Old man waiting at the gates for me
Give me the wisdom give me the key
(rpt 1)

I'll make my way
Oh it's gonna be such a beautiful day
In the house of stone and light
Oh, oh, oh, oh, yeah
Let me in, beneath my skin
Oh oh in the house of stone and light

It's been too long my spirit's been at war
Havasupai Shaman let me be reborn
And I will embrace the sun upon my face
Come the day I awake the child inside
In the house of stone and light

When I go I will o-o-open my eyes
In the house of stone and light
I will see you in the house of stone and light

I'm going inside
Stone and light
Looking for a child

In the house of stone and light...

I must go there to find my soul, yeah
"I feel this pang inside— Is it my soul trying to break out, Or the worlds soul trying to break in?" ~ Tagore <br>

Murder Of The Planet Earth
(Published by Virgin Music June 1989) It Bites

I walked right out of it, couldn't take no more
I'd rather go hungry
I watched a generation wash it's hands of war
Then sleep in it's laundry

Wonders of the world and there's eight in all
It's a wonder that the wonders have such wonder at all
Fat men in business with will to succeed
Mouth off their stories of children in need

Murder, When your life is on the line
Murder, Why don't you take this hand of mine
Murder, to all the ladies giving birth
Murder, it's the murder of the planet earth
Here we go again.....

I walked right out of it, couldn't give a damn
I'd rather sit right here
I've seen the lords and ladies pulling all the scams
They won't escape dying

Wonders of the world and there's eight in
It's a wonder that the wonders have such wonder at all

New generations will die at their birth
It still isn't trendy to be a friend of the earth

Murder, When your life is on the line
Murder, Why don't you take this hand of mine
Murder, to all the ladies giving birth
Murder, it's the murder of the planet earth

And all the hills will die
Flattened by the stench of mankind
Animals in the parks forced to smile
by the sickening syringes of genocide
Bluebirds wrything in agony die
struck down by missiles of the anti kind,
as the reaper announces his coming
as the new God
we all step aside
MURDER

Murder, When your life is on the line
Murder, Why don't you take this hand of mine
Murder, to all the ladies giving birth
Murder, it's the murder of the planet earth

You're just too good to be true.
Can't take my eyes off you.
You'd be like Heaven to touch.
I wanna hold you so much.
At long last love has arrived
And I thank God I'm alive.
You're just too good to be true.
Can't take my eyes off you.

I Need to Wake Up ~ Melissa Etheridge

Post by SETIsLady » 02-25-2007 09:42 PM

Have I been sleeping?
I’ve been so still
Afraid of crumbling
Have I been careless?
Dismissing all the distant rumblings
Take me where I am supposed to be
To comprehend the things that I can’t see

Cause I need to move
I need to wake up
I need to change
I need to shake up
I need to speak out
Something’s got to break up
I’ve been asleep
And I need to wake up
Now

And as a child
I danced like it was 1999
My dreams were wild
The promise of this new world
Would be mine
Now I am throwing off the carelessness of youth
To listen to an inconvenient truth

That I need to move
I need to wake up
I need to change

I need to shake up
I need to speak out
Something’s got to break up
I’ve been asleep
And I need to wake up
Now

I am not an island
I am not alone
I am my intentions
Trapped here in this flesh and bone

And I need to move
I need to wake up
I need to change
I need to shake up
I need to speak out
Something’s got to break up
I’ve been asleep
And I need to wake up
Now

I want to change
I need to shake up
I need to speak out
Oh, Something’s got to break up
I’ve been asleep
And I need to wake up
Now

Peace and love can be acheived, it is not hopeless. :)

Recently celebrated my 17th anniversary of moving to Alaska. On February 8, 1990, I made my final exit from New Jersey. Arrived in Alaska with one suitcase of clothing, a down sleeping bag and $500 in my pocket. Seventeen years later life could not be better. To say the long, dark winters are difficult to deal with is an understatement. On that note, here is the song that expresses how I feel today:

The Beatles

Here comes the sun, here comes the sun,
and I say it's all right

Little darling, it's been a long cold lonely winter
Little darling, it feels like years since it's been here
Here comes the sun, here comes the sun
and I say it's all right

Little darling, the smiles returning to the faces
Little darling, it seems like years since it's been here
Here comes the sun, here comes the sun
and I say it's all right

Sun, sun, sun, here it comes...
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes...
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes...
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes...
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes...

Little darling, I feel that ice is slowly melting
Little darling, it seems like years since it's been clear
Here comes the sun, here comes the sun,
and I say it's all right
It's all right

:cool:
