Song Lyrics
back
Yesterday's Gone
Michael Smith
We can't look back in fear of death
Lennon's sniper , Jimi's dead
Cobains blood on the path
We can't go back it looks so bad
It's smiling when you feel depressed
It may hurt but no one cares
Get you mind to figure out
Yesterday's gone tomorrow's not
A secret told's a secret shared
No more cops n' no more feds
Eastwood split from Alcatraz
New age riots coming fast
It's trying tp build the perfect race
Government warnings they'r all fake
Legislations always passing through
Sandy Palmer's misconstrued
Love is useless without hate
Friends and foes they'r all the same
Mates kick you when you'r down
You phone 'em up to ask them round
You know what the answer is
Sorry mate , the girlfriend's in
We argue while we have to shout
More or less I try to get out
Spare A thought for the cause
People dying on the floor
Stood where once Che's reveared
In my opinion Cuba feared
Died for peace or did peace die
Makes you angry makes you cry
Sold out for A pay rise
Revolutiom sure to die
Music here and music there
Pop n' rock it's just not fair
Nitvana's lyrics about hate
Radio blares out songs of pain
It's smiling when you feel depressed
It may hurt but no one cares
Get you mind to figure out
Yesterday's gone , tomorrows not
Time Has Won
Anton Rijke
Time has won, this ships not sailing anymore
Laughter and sun are both upon the horizon
We cannot feel them like we did before
The sudden end was a friend of the fading sun
And we agree to put strangers on our ship
We thought of the children and pets
The books and all the words we said
And then lay upon a dip and smile to this farewell we had
Once we were those wonders in spring
And being so fortunate, to be able to sing
In love and all the laughter we all did bring
We did not linger, dived in deep and started to swim
We had no doubt, no reason to hesitate
We grabbed that love and life we saw on the blade
Our seed was in sky-high adventure taken
Love was the reason, and life was shaken
Then the cold was not a dream and the breath of death no lie
We did not run we did not hide
We lift our hearts up to the sky
And invited the light to take our pride
And so it happen, like we never could foreseen
This dreadful killing of a fantasy dream
Timeless in less then a heartbeat it seems
This mistake of nature flames and steam
This farewell has taken its price
Loosing in sight of wonderful paradise
The thoughts linger on for life
Should I have followed you into that strange light?
How come this wind is not blowin'
there's no breeze at all
this light comes
from behind closed doors
ADIEU TO BON COUNTY
lt's a great separation my friends they have caused me,
By bearing their spite that my favor was won;
lt's a great separation, likewise a vexation,
And they shall be sorry for what they have done.
chorus:
Eat, drink, and be jolly, and care not for folly,
And drownd away sorrow in a bottle of wine;
Pass it to the boys in full-flowing bumpers,
And play on the fiddle to pass away time!
Adieu to Bon County, I'm bound for to leave you,
And seek my heart's fortune in some foreign land,
Where bottles and glasses is my greatest comfort
And when we do meet we'll jine heart and hand.
Farewell to my friends and my good old neighbors,
Likewise to the girl I'll never see more.
This world it is wide, and I'll spend it in pleasures-
I don't care for no one that don't care for me.
My fortune is small, so freely I own it,
What little I have it is all of my own.
I might have lived longer to enjoy it with pleasure,
lf my poor friends had a' let me alone.
I have money a plenty to bear my expenses,
And when it's all gone I'll chop wood and get more.
When death it comes on me I'll freely go with it,
Pay up my last dues and go with it home.
The Dance
Garth Brooks
Looking back on the memory of
The dance we shared 'neath the stars above
For a moment all the world was right
How could I have known that you'd ever say goodbye
Chorus:
And now I'm glad I didn't know
The way it all would end the way it all would go
Our lives are better left to chance I could have missed the pain
But I'd of had to miss the dance
Holding you I held everything
For a moment wasn't I a king
But if I'd only known how the king would fall
Hey who's to say you know I might have changed it all
Chorus
My life is better left to chance
I could have missed the pain
But I'd of had to miss the dance
Eleanor Rigby
Lennon/McCartney
Ah, look at all the lonely people
Ah, look at all the lonely people
Eleanor Rigby picks up the rice in the church where a wedding has been
Lives in a dream
Waits at the window, wearing the face that she keeps in a jar by the door
Who is it for?
All the lonely people
Where do they all come from ?
All the lonely people
Where do they all belong ?
Father McKenzie writing the words of a sermon that no one will hear
No one comes near.
Look at him working. Darning his socks in the night when there's nobody there
What does he care?
All the lonely people
Where do they all come from?
All the lonely people
Where do they all belong?
Eleanor Rigby died in the church and was buried along with her name
Nobody came
Father McKenzie wiping the dirt from his hands as he walks from the grave
No one was saved
All the lonely people
Where do they all come from?
All the lonely people
Where do they all belong?
