Tuesday Tunes

great dance song, so goooood

"Look up at the rooftops

When you're walking round

Don't think for a moment

Of looking down

A room at the top

Where we're not allowed

Cheer to the echo

Can you hear the sound

Wo-oh, wo-oh (yeah, yeah, yeah)

For the wings of a dove"

-Wings of a Dove by Madness

"Why do you come here, when you know

 I've got troubles enough?

Why do you call me, when you know 

I can't answer the phone? 

And make me lie when I don't want to, 

And make someone else some kind of an unknowing fool?

 Make me stay when I should not? 

If you're so strong then resolve the weakness in me. 

Why do you come here, and pretend to be just passing by?"

-The Weakness by Joan Armatrading

"So you lie there holding your breath
And it's strange how soon you forget
That you're like stars
They only show up when it's dark
Cause they don't know their worth
And I think you need
To stop following misery's lead
Shine away, shine away, shine away
Isn't it time you got over
How fragile you are
We're all wait-
Waiting on your supernova
Cause that's who you are
And you've only begun to shine
There are times when
The poets and porn stars align and
You won't know who to believe in
Well that's a good time to be leavin'
And the past, it knocks on your door
And throws stones at your window at 4 in the morning
Well maybe he thinks it's romantic
He's crazy but you knew that before"

-Shine by Anna Nalick

"This lullaby is only simple chords

A few soft spoken words
From my heart to yours
So sleep, don't think about the world tonight
It's you and me, and everything's alright
This lullaby is meant to help you dream
Of only happy things
And maybe once of me
So sleep, don't think about the world tonight
It's you and me, and everything's alright
This lullaby makes me want to cry
Until my tears run dry
And you hold me through the night"

-This Lullaby by Sarah Dessen, never recorded.
