Will you send me a song?

Question

I'm leaving Y!A and 360 for a while. School's out, it's summer, and I have work to do. I don't have time to be coming on here very often. I'm a writer, and it's time I got back to writing. (If you do happen to see me on here a lot, please yell at me. I give you permission.)


I will miss you while I'm gone, and I hope that you will miss me too. So I ask that you send me a song when you think of me or miss me. I will sing the songs for you. (And I promise I have a decent voice.)


I shall see you in the fall, my friends.


"Send Me A Song"

Take the wave now and know that you're free
Turn your back the land, face the sea
Face the wind now, so wild and so strong
When you think of me, wave to me and send me song

Don't look back when you reach the new shore
Don't forget what you're leaving me for
Don't forget when you're missing me so
Love must never hold, never hold tight, but let go

Oh, the nights will be long when I'm not in your arms
But I'll be in this song that you sing to me
Across the sea, somehow, someday
You will be far away, so far from me
And maybe someday I will follow you in all you do
'Til then, send me a song

When the sun sets the water on fire
When the wind swells the sails of your hire
Let the call of the bird on the wind
Calm your sadness and lonliness
And then start to sing to me
I will sing to you
If you promise to send me a song

I walk by the shore and I hear
Hear your song come so faint and so clear
And I catch it, a breath on the wind
And I smile and I sing you a song
I will send you a song
I will sing you a song
I will sing to you
If you promise to send me a song~Celtic Woman

I like pretty much any kind of music.

I love you guys... All of you ;-)

God's Kitty and Barbara - My husband and I love both of those songs.

All of our favorite songs are taken... "Those Nights" and "wish you Were Here"...

How about,
"Kind of Perfect"
By Kacy Crowley

Why don’t you talk about it,
I know there’s something on your mind.
Well you go on and get a cigarette,
I’ll be waiting outside.
The last few years have been much harder,
Than we ever thought they’d be.
I know you hate it when I say I’m sorry,
But I’m sorry.

There was never a point in our love,
That I didn’t love you...
Not a point in our love.
I always did, I always will, I always do, love you still,
I always would, how could I not?
Just look at us baby,
We’re kind of perfect.

Well sometimes I get all wrapped up,
Cause I don’t know who to be.
But you know when to be my security blanket, and when to uncover me.
So let’s just sit out on the back porch,
And unravel everything.
Someday these will be our old days, let’s make them worth remembering.

There was never a point in our love,
That I didn’t love you...
Not a point in our love.
I always did, I always will, I always do, love you still,
I always would, how could I not?
Just look at us baby,
We’re kind of perfect.

Never planned on loving somebody so much...
But I’ve always had pretty good luck, baby.

I always did, I always will, I always do, love you still,
I always would, how could I not?
Just look at us baby,
We’re kind of perfect.

We’re kind of perfect.
We’re kind of perfect, baby.
We’re kind of perfect, baby.
We’re kind of perfect, baby.

"A Little More"

Love is all around you now
So take a hold
Hidden in our words
It sometimes ain't enough
Don't suffocate day after day
It's building up
Cause when you're feeling weak
You know I'm strong enough

Just one more day
One more day

Oh, let the world crash
Love can take it
Oh, let the world come crashing down
Oh, let the world crash
Love can take it
Love can take a little
Love can give a little more

Love is indestructible
So take a hold
Sometimes hard to find
A reason good enough
I'll stand beside you
Never leave through it all
And faith will bring a way
To the impossible

Just one more day
One more day

Oh, let the world crash
Love can take it
Oh, let the world come crashing down
Oh, let the world crash
Love can take it
Love can take a little
Love can give a little more

You can find me
You can find me
You can find me anywhere
Take a look over your shoulder
I'll be standing there
Standing there

Love is all around you now
So take a hold
And faith will bring a way
To the impossible

Just one more day
(You can find me, You can find me)
One more day
(You can find me anywhere) [2x]

Let the world crash
Love can take it
Oh, let the world come crashing down
Oh, let the world crash
Love can take it
Love can take a little
Love can take a little
Love can take a little
Love can give a little more
A little more

Take a little more
Take a little more


sorry just there is so many for you and us...

The Shins - Pink Bullets
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3XBabozrPGA

I was just bony hands as cold as a winter pole
You held a warm stone out new flowing blood to hold
Oh what a contrast you were
To the brutes in the halls
My timid young fingers held a decent animal.

Over the ramparts you tossed
The scent of your skin and some foreign flowers
Tied to a brick
Sweet as a song
The years have been short but the days were long.

Cool of a temperate breeze from dark skies to wet grass
We fell in a field it seems now a thousand summers passed
When our kite lines first crossed
We tied them into knots
And to finally fly apart
We had to cut them off.

Since then it's been a book you read in reverse
So you understand less as the pages turn
Or a movie so crass
And awkardly cast
That even I could be the star.

I don't look back as much as a rule
And all this way before murder was cool
But your memory is here and I'd like it to stay
Warm light on a winter day.

Over the ramparts you tossed
The scent of your skin and some foreign flowers
Tied to a brick
Sweet as a song
The years have been short but the days go slowly by
Two loose kites falling from the sky
Drawn to the ground and an end to flight.

*hugz* I'll miss you and look forward to your return!

Sweet Surrender by John Denver

Lost and alone on some forgotten highway
Travelled by many, remember by few
Looking for something that I can believe in
Looking for something that I'd like to do
With my life

There's nothing behind me and
Nothing that ties me to
Something that might have been true yesterday
Tomorrow is open
Right now it seems to be more than enough
To just be here today

I don't know what the future is holding in store
I don't know where I"m going
I'm not sure where I've been
There's a spirit that guides me
A light that shines for me
My life's worth the living
I don't need to see the end

Sweet, sweet surrender
Live, live without care
Like a fish in the water,
Like a bird in the air.
(repeat)

And, for the animist in you: The Eagle and the Hawk

Oh
I am the Eagle, I live in high country
In rocky cathedrals that reach to the sky
I am the Hawk, and there's blood on my feathers
But time is still turning, they soon will be dry

And all those who see me
And all who believe in me
Share in the freedom I feel when I fly

Come dance with the West Wind
And touch on the mountaintops
Sail over the canyon
And up to the stars
And reach for the heavens
And hope for the future
And all that we can be
and not what we are.

Answer 4

Gazing through the window at the world outside
Wondering will mother earth survive
Hoping that mankind will stop abusing her sometime

After all there's only just the two of us
And here we are still fighting for our lives
Watching all of history repeat itself
Time after time

I'm just a dreamer
I dream my life away
I'm just a dreamer
Who dreams of better days

I watch the sun go down like everyone of us
I'm hoping that the dawn will bring a sign
A better place for those Who will come after us ...
This time

I'm just a dreamer
I dream my life away oh yeah
I'm just a dreamer
Who dreams of better days

Your higher power may be God or Jesus Christ
It doesn't really matter much to me
Without each others help there ain't no hope for us
I'm living in a dream of fantasy
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah

If only we could all just find serenity
It would be nice if we could live as one
When will all this anger, hate and bigotry ...
Be gone?

I'm just a dreamer
I dream my life away
Today
I'm just a dreamer
Who dreams of better days
Okay
I'm just a dreamer
Who's searching for the way
Today
I'm just a dreamer
Dreaming my life away
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah

Answer 5

It is not a particularly festive song, but My Dark Life by Elvis Costello, just a beautiful song.

She says nobody wants to believe
You're the same as everyone.
What makes me unique? My Dark Life.
There was a kink in the world
Sent that statue tumbling
An invitation east
So we can watch it all crumbling

She came off like light and so softly she spoke:
"You don't know, no you don't know about my dark life"
And you think you're a guest, you're a tourist at best
Peering into the corners of your dark life
Now that you tear your dreams from consumptive ballerinas
She'd stand on tiptoes for you in a grey and tattered tutu
She stays where she is because of voyeurs like these
With an accusative look that says My Dark Life.

Robber men await you then in each beguiling alley
To shake you and to pierce you and remind you of
My Dark Life.

Enter the pious elite, in their preening finery
And bang the tambourine
They're dining on rice paper scenery
See how the villain attracts envious glances from everyone
She's waitressing by day
It doesn't bring in much money now

And his strong concealed arms set off bells and alarms
In the strangest locations of My Dark Life
But the fantasy slipped as he tipped her in cigarettes
She tries to smile very graciously when she wants to kill him
Now the victory is sweet, you'll get down on your knees
It's the perfect position for kissing western leather

So they came from Ugly Texas and from Nameless Tennessee
From Peculiar Missouri and from places closer to me.
All the cream of heartless England, cheered the carnival is over
There are remnants of red army bandsmen
Played "America The Beautiful"

Seeing how I'm a Parrotthead... ;-)

Jimmy Buffett - Changes In Latitudes, Changes In Attitudes


I took off for a weekend last month
Just to try and recall the whole year.
All of the faces and all of the places,
wonderin' where they all disappeared.
I didn't ponder the question too long;
I was hungry and went out for a bite.
Ran into a chum with a bottle of rum,
and we wound up drinkin' all night.

It's those changes in latitudes,
Changes in attitudes nothing remains quite the same.
With all of our running and all of our cunning,
If we couldn't laugh, we would all go insane.

[Chorus:]
These changes in latitudes, changes in attitudes,
Nothing remains quite the same.
Through all of the islands and all of the highlands,
If we couldn't laugh we would all go insane

Reading departure signs in some big airport
Reminds me of the places I've been.
Visions of good times that brought so much pleasure
Makes me want to go back again.
If it suddenly ended tomorrow,
I could somehow adjust to the fall.
Good times and riches and son of a b!tches,
I've seen more than I can recall

[Chorus]

I think about Paris when I'm high on red wine,
I wish I could jump on a plane.
And so many nights I just dream of the ocean.
God, I wish I was sailin' again.
Oh, yesterdays are over my shoulder,
So I can't look back for too long.
There's just too much to see waiting in front of me,
And I know that I just can't go wrong
with these...

[Chorus]

Answer 7

A sweet one for you...


Artist: Grateful Dead
Album: Reckoning
Title: Ripple


If my words did glow with the gold of sunshine
And my tunes were played on the harp unstrung,
Would you hear my voice come thru the music,
Would you hold it near as it were your own?

It's a hand-me-down, the thoughts are broken,
Perhaps they're better left unsung.
I don't know, don't really care
Let there be songs to fill the air.

Ripple in still water,
When there is no pebble tossed,
Nor wind to blow.

Reach out your hand if your cup be empty,
If your cup is full may it be again,
Let it be known there is a fountain,
That was not made by the hands of men.

There is a road, no simple highway,
Between the dawn and the dark of night,
And if you go no one may follow,
That path is for your steps alone.

Ripple in still water,
When there is no pebble tossed,
Nor wind to blow.

But if you fall you fall alone,
If you should stand then who's to guide you?
If i knew the way i would take you home.

La dee da da da, la da da da da, da da da, da da, da da da da da
La da da da, la da da, da da, la da da da, la da, da da

Answer 8

THE OLD WAYS

Words and music by Loreena McKennitt

The thundering waves are calling me home to you
The pounding sea is calling me home to you

On a dark new year's night
On the west coast of Clare
I heard your voice singing
Your eyes danced the song
Your hands played the tune
T'was a vision before me.

We left the music behind and the dance carried on
As we stole away to the seashore
We smelt the brine, felt the wind in our hair
And with sadness you paused.

Suddenly I knew that you'd have to go
My world was not yours, your eyes told me so
Yet it was there I felt the crossroads of time
And I wondered why.

As we cast our gaze on the tumbling sea
A vision came o'er me
Of thundering hooves and beating wings
In clouds above.

As you turned to go I heard you call my name,
You were like a bird in a cage spreading its wings to fly
"The old ways are lost," you sang as you flew
And I wondered why.

Answer 9

Why are there so many,
songs about rainbows?
And what's on the other side?

Rainbows are visions,
but only illusions.
And rainbows have nothing to hide.

So we've been told and some choose to believe it.
I know they're wrong, wait and see.
Someday we'll find it;
the Rainbow Connection.
The lovers, the dreamers, and me...

For you, because you're all of the above.

Answer 10

When you’re down and troubled
And you need a helping hand
And nothing, whoa nothing is going right.
Close your eyes and think of me
And soon I will be there
To brighten up even your darkest nights.

You just call out my name and you know wherever I am
I’ll come running to see you again.
