[IFUSEEKAMY]

Settle down, it'll all be clear
Don't pay no mind to the demons, they fill you with fear
The trouble, it might drag you down
If you get lost, you can always be found
Just know you're not alone
Cuz I'm gunna make this place your home

(Phillip Phillips — Home)

 

[kherg007]

I ain't never been with a woman long enough
For my boots to get old
We've been together so long now
They both need resoled

If I ever settle down
You'd be my kind
And it's a good time for me
To head on down the line

Heard it in a love song
Heard it in a love song
Heard it in a love song
Can't be wrong

Marshall Tucker Band - "Heard it in a love song"

 

[IFUSEEKAMY]

Just an old-fashioned love song
One I'm sure they wrote for you and me
Just an old-fashioned love song
Coming down in three part harmony

(Three Dog Night — An Old-Fashioned Love Song)

 

[fromtheshwa]

Head under water
and they tell me to breathe easy for a while
the breathing gets harder, even i know that

You made room for me but it’s too soon to see
if I’m happy in your hands
I’m unusually hard to hold on to

Blank stares at blank pages
no easy way to say this
you mean well, but you make this hard on me

I'm not gonna write you a love song
'cause you asked for it
'cause you need one, you see
I'm not gonna write you a love song
'cause you tell me it's
make or breaking this
if you’re on your way
I'm not gonna write you to stay
If all you have is leaving I’m gonna need a better reason to write you a love song today

(Sara Bareilles - Love Song)

 

[downbound123]

I'm the blade, you're the knife

I'm the weight, you're the kite

They were right when they said

We were breathing underwater

Out of place all the time

In a world that wasn't mine

To take... I'll wait


Is this my life?

Am I breathing underwater?


Is this my life?

Am I breathing underwater?


I'm the blade, you're the knife

I'm the weight, you're the kite

They were right when they said

We should never meet our heroes

When they bowed at their feet

In the end it wasn't me


Is this my life?

Am I breathing underwater?

Breathing Underwater .... Metric 2019

 

[IFUSEEKAMY]

I don't need you to worry for me I'm alright
I don't want you to tell me it's time to come home
I don't care what you say anymore this is my life
Go ahead with your own life leave me alone

(Billy Joel — My Life)

 

[bluebro69]

Life, life
Tell it like it is
You don't have to die before you live, ooh

You might get angry sometimes
But don't let it turn you around
All you gotta do is get your livin' now

Life, life
Clouds and clowns
You don't have to come down

(Life -- Sly & the Family Stone)

 

[IFUSEEKAMY]

Isn’t it rich? Are we a pair?
Me here at last on the ground, you in mid air
Where are the clowns?
Isn't it bliss? Don't you approve?
One who keeps tearing around, one who can't move
Where are the clowns?
There ought to be clowns

(Sondheim — Send in the Clowns)

 

[hoilem]

Tears and fears and feeling proud
To say, "I love you, " right out loud
Dreams and schemes and circus crowds
I've looked at life that way

Oh, but now old friends, they're acting strange
And they shake their heads and they tell me that I've changed
Well, something's lost, but something's gained
In living every day

Joni Mitchell - Both Sides Now

 

[fromtheshwa]

I want your loving more and more
I want your kisses that's for sure
I die each time
I hear the sound
They're saying here he comes
He's Cathy's clown

(Everly Brothers - Cathy's Clown)

 

[bluebro69]

Some people call me the space cowboy, yeah
Some call me the gangster of love
Some people call me Maurice
'Cause I speak of the pompatus of love

(Steve Miller -- The Joker)

 

[IFUSEEKAMY]

Where is my John Wayne?
Where is my prairie song?
Where is my happy ending?
Where have all the cowboys gone?

(Paula Cole — Where Have All the Cowboys Gone)

 

[bluebro69]

I've been walkin' these streets so long
Singin' the same old song
I know every crack in these dirty sidewalks of Broadway
Where hustle's the name of the game
And nice guys get washed away like the snow in the rain

(Glen Campbell -- Rhinestone Cowboy)

 

[ogibowt]

Every town i go in
Theres a street now
The name of the street
Funky funky Broadway
Down on Broadway
Theres a night club
Broadway nightclub

Dyke and the Blazers 1966....its been said this was the 1st song to use Funky in the lyrics
Dyke & the who you ask...google them

 

[K Douglas]

OK, that's enough, get out of here
Here we go People listen to this
Gettin' really funky
Get out of here
Goin' back in his hole
Just the same way he came out

Funky Worm - Ohio Players

 

[kherg007]

Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum
Hoist the mainsail, here I come
Ain't no room on board for the insincere
You're my witness
I'm your mutineer

I was born to rock the boat
Some may sink but we will float
Grab your coat, let's get out of here
You're my witness
I'm your mutineer

Warren Zevon "Mutineer"

 

[IFUSEEKAMY]

She’s made up her mind that he must get caught
His dinghy has gotta sail into her port
She won’t let it rust cuz she knows the score
You can tell she’s had a dinghy before
Ship ahoy, sailor boy! Don’t you get too springy
The admiral’s daughter waits down by the water
She wants to ride your dinghy

(Ruth Wallis — The Admiral’s Daughter)

 

[bluebro69]

I sailed an ocean, unsettled ocean
Through restful waters and deep commotion
Often frightened, unenlightened
Sail on, sail on sailor

I wrest the waters, fight Neptune's borders
Sail through the sorrows of life's marauders
Un-repenting, often empty
Sail on, sail on sailor

(The Beach Boys -- Sail On Sailor)

 

[IFUSEEKAMY]

Fantasy
It gets the best of me
When I'm sailing
All caught up in the reverie
Every word is a symphony
Won't you believe me?
Sailing
Takes me away to where I've always heard it could be
Just a dream and the wind to carry me
Soon I will be free

(Christopher Cross — Sailing)

 

[kherg007]

Seventy-three men sailed up
From the San Francisco Bay
Rolled off of their ship, and here's what they had to say
"We're callin' everyone to ride along to another shore
We can laugh our lives away and be free once more"

But no one heard them callin'
No one came at all
'Cause they were too busy watchin' those old raindrops fall
As a storm was blowin' out on the peaceful sea
Seventy-three men sailing off to history

Ride, captain ride upon your mystery ship
Be amazed at the friends you have here on your trip
Ride captain ride upon your mystery ship
On your way to a world that others might have missed
