When the Levee Breaks
Led Zeppelin
If it keeps on raining, levee's going to break
If it keeps on raining, levee's going to break
When the levee breaks, I'll have no place to stay
Mean old levee taught me to weep and moan
Mean old levee taught me to weep and moan
It's got what it takes to make a mountain man leave his home
Don't it make you feel bad when you're trying to find your way home
You don't know which way to go?
If you're going down south, they got no work to do
If you don't know about Chicago
Crying won't help you, praying won't do you no good
Crying won't help you, praying won't do you no good
When the levee breaks, mama, you got to move
All last night, sat on the levee and moaned
All last night, sat on the levee and moaned
Thinking 'bout my baby and my happy home
Going, going to Chicago, going to Chicago
Sorry, but I can't take you...
Going down... going down now... going down....

Bridge Over Troubled Water
When you're weary, feeling small
When tears are in your eyes,
I will dry them all
I'm on your side
When times get rough
And friends just can't be found
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
When you're down and out
When you're on the street
When evening falls so hard
I will comfort you
I'll take your part
When darkness comes
And pain is all around
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
Sail on silver girl
Sail on by
Your time has come to shine
All your dreams are on their way
See how they shine
When you need a friend
I'm sailing right behind
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind

The great Son House:
Death Letter
I got a letter this mornin, how do you reckon it read?
It said, "Hurry, hurry, yeah, your love is dead"
I got a letter this mornin, I say how do you reckon it read?
You know, it said, "Hurry, hurry, how come the gal you love is dead?"
So, I grabbed up my suitcase, and took off down the road
When I got there she was layin on a coolin' board
I grabbed up my suitcase, and I said and I took off down the road
I said, but when I got there she was already layin on a coolin' board
Well, I walked up right close, looked down in her face
Said, the good ol' gal got to lay here 'til the Judgment Day
I walked up right close, and I said I looked down in her face
I said the good ol' gal, she got to lay here 'til the Judgment Day
Looked like there was 10,000 people standin' round the buryin' ground
I didn't know I loved her 'til they laid her down
Looked like 10,000 were standin' round the buryin' ground
You know I didn't know I loved her 'til they damn laid her down
Lord, have mercy on my wicked soul
I wouldn't mistreat you baby, for my weight in gold
I said, Lord, have mercy on my wicked soul
You know I wouldn't mistreat nobody, baby, not for my weight in gold
Well, I folded up my arms and I slowly walked away
I said, "Farewell honey, I'll see you on Judgment Day"
Ah, yeah, oh, yes, I slowly walked away
I said, "Farewell, farewell, I'll see you on the Judgment Day"
You know I went in my room, I bowed down to pray
The blues came along and drove my spirit away
I went in my room, I said I bowed down to pray
I said the blues came along and drove my spirit away
You know I didn't feel so bad, 'til the good ol' sun went down
I didn't have a soul to throw my arms around
I didn't feel so bad, 'til the good ol' sun went down
You know, I didn't have nobody to throw my arms around
I loved you baby, like I love myself
You don't have me, you won't have nobody else
I loved you baby, better than I did myself
I said now if you don't have me, I didn't want you to have nobody else
You know, it's hard to love someone that don't love you
Ain't no satisfaction, don't care what in the world you do
Yeah, it's hard to love someone that don't love you
You know it don't look like satisfaction, don't care what in the world you do
Got up this mornin', just about the break of day
A-huggin' the pillow where she used to lay
Got up this mornin', just about the break of day
A-huggin' the pillow where my good gal used to lay
Got up this mornin', feelin' round for my shoes
You know, I must-a had them old walkin' blues
Got up this mornin', feelin' round for my shoes
Yeah, you know bout that, I must-a had them old walkin' blues
You know, I cried last night and all the night before
Gotta change my way a livin', so I don't have to cry no more
You know, I cried last night and all the night before
Gotta change my way a livin', you see, so I don't have to cry no more
Ah, hush, thought I heard her call my name
If it wasn't so loud and so nice and plain
Ah, yeah
Mmmmmm
Well, listen, whatever you do
This is one thing, honey, I tried to get along with you
Yes, no tellin' what you do
I done everything I could, just to try and get along with you
Well, the minutes seemed like hours, hours they seemed like days
It seemed like my good, old gal outta done stopped her low-down ways
Minutes seemed like hours, hours they seemed like days
Seems like my good, old gal outta done stopped her low-down ways
You know, love's a hard ol' fall, make you do things you don't wanna do
Love sometimes leaves you feeling sad and blue
You know, love's a hard ol' fall, make you do things you don't wanna do
Love sometimes make you feel sad and blue

JAMES BLUNT
"No Bravery"
There are children standing here,
Arms outstretched into the sky,
Tears drying on their face.
He has been here.
Brothers lie in shallow graves.
Fathers lost without a trace.
A nation blind to their disgrace,
Since he's been here.
And I see no bravery,
No bravery in your eyes anymore.
Only sadness.
Houses burnt beyond repair.
The smell of death is in the air.
A woman weeping in despair says,
He has been here.
Tracer lighting up the sky.
It's another families' turn to die.
A child afraid to even cry out says,
He has been here.
And I see no bravery,
No bravery in your eyes anymore.
Only sadness.
There are children standing here,
Arms outstretched into the sky,
But no one asks the question why,
He has been here.
Old men kneel to accept their fate.
Wives and daughters cut and raped.
A generation drenched in hate.
Yes, he has been here.
And I see no bravery,
No bravery in your eyes anymore.
Only sadness.
EDIT: He wrote this song when he was serving his tour of duty in Serbia I believe.

Sandy Denny:
She Moves Through The Fair
words: Padraic Colum
My young love said to me, “My mother won't mind,
And my father won't slight you for your lack of kind.”
And she laid her hand on me and this she did say,
“Oh, it will not be long, love, till our wedding-day.”
And she went away from me and moved through the fair,
And fondly I watched her move here and move there.
And then she went onward, just one star awake
Like the swan in the evening moves over the lake.
Last night she came to me, my dead love came in,
So softly she came that her feet made no din.
And she laid her hand on me and this she did say,
“Oh, it will not be long, love, till our wedding-day.”

The New Pornographers: Sing Me Spanish Techno
quote:
Don't you know
after picking the glass off the ground
Don't you know
after shaking the thing for a sound
Do we see what the clock makes you do
But I won't let this happen to you
In a town
where I lost every shirt on the fence
Don't you know
I am bleeding a trail through the lens
When I see what I now know is you
I was caught in the eye as you came
Pulled by my name
I'm fallin' through
Traveling at godspeed
over the hills and trails
I have refused my call
pushin' my lazy sails
Into the blue flame
I want to crash here right now
The hourglass spills its sand
if only to punish you
for listenin' too long
to one song
listenin' too long
to one song
Sing me Spanish techno
listenin' too long
to one song
listenin' too long
to one song
Sing me Spanish techno
Don't you know
after wiring the thing to explode
Wired for sound
wide awake here for days in a row
Now we see what the engine can do
And I won't let this happen to you
I won't let this happen to you |

A special song to Playful and me. For our wedding.
Love Happens Like That
Neal McCoy
We went from zero to love in nothing flat
And you smiled at me and before I knew
I was head over heels for you
(Love happens like that)
It steals your heart like a thief in the night
(Love happens like that)
You can run but you can't hide
(Love happens like that)
Before you know it there ain't no turning back
Love happens like that
Call it destiny, call it love at first sight
Call it meant to be I'd say you're right
I never dreamed that just one kiss
Could make me feel like this
(Love happens like that)
It steals your heart like a thief in the night
(Love happens like that)
And you can run but you can't hide
(Love happens like that)
Before you know it there ain't no turning back
Love happens like that
In a heartbeat it can turn your world around, just like that
(Love happens like that)
It steals your heart like a thief in the night
(Love happens like that)
You can run but you can't hide
(Love happens like that)
Before you know it there ain't no turning back
Just like that, love happens like that
(love happens, love happens, love happens just like that)
It steals your heart like a thief in the night
(love happens, love happens, love happens just like that)
You can run but you can't hide
(love happens, love happens, love happens just like that)
Love happens just like that
(love happens, love happens, love happens just like that)
(love happens, love happens, love happens just like that)

All I'll Ever Ask
Love means so many different things,
but you're all that matters,
and this is all I'll ever ask of you.
Tell me your dreams, so they could be mine too,
let me be there, to help them come true.
Tell me your fears, when you fell afraid,
come to my arms, let me rock them away.
That's all I'll ever ask.
That's all I'll ever ask.
That's all I'll ever ask.
Of you...
Come to my shoulder, when you need to weep,
wake me up, when you cannot sleep.
Talk to me, when you want to be heard,
be silent with me, when you can't say a word.
That's all I'll ever ask.
That's all I'll ever ask.
That's all I'll ever ask.
Of you...
I can't swear that you never, have to cry another tear.
But whenever you want, someone to hold you, Iim always right here.
So just, come to me, for anything at all,
call my name, itis yours to call.
Fell my faith in you, when you can't find your own,
and always remember, you're never alone.
That's all I'll ever ask.
That's all I'll ever ask.
That's all I'll ever ask.
Of you...
I can't swear that you never, have to cry another tear.
But whenever you want, someone to hold you, remember, I'm always right here.
That's all I'll ever ask.
That's all I'll ever ask.
That's all I'll ever ask.
Of you...

Death Cab for Cutie: The Sound of Settling
quote:
I've got a hunger
Twisting my stomach into knots
That my tongue was tied off
My brain's repeating
"if you've got an impulse let it out"
But they never make it past my mouth.
Baa bah, this is the sound of settling
Baa bah, baa bah
Our youth is fleeting
Old age is just around the bend
And i can't wait to go grey
And i'll sit and wonder
Of every love that could've been
If i'd only thought of something charming to say.
Baa bah, this is the sound of settling
Baa bah, baa bah
I've got a hunger twisting my stomach into knots. |

Forgive me, I'm on a massive X&Y kick at the moment...
Low
Coldplay
You see the world in black and white
No color or light
You think you'll never get it right
But you're wrong, you might
The sky could fall, could fall on me
The parting of the sea
But you mean more, mean more to me
Than any color I can see
All you ever wanted was love
But you never looked hard enough
It's never gonna give itself up
All you ever wanted to be
Living in perfect symmetry
Nothing is as down or as up as us
You see the world in black and white
Not painted right
You see no meaning to your life
You should try...
You should try...
All you ever wanted was love
But you never looked hard enough
It's never gonna give itself up
All you ever wanted to be
Living in perfect symmetry
Nothing is as down or as up
Don't you want to see it come soon
Floating in a big white balloon
Come give her your own silver spoon
Don't you want to see it come down
There for throwing your arms around
And say "You're not a moment too soon..."
'Cause I feel loved
'Cause I feel loved
Oh, yeah, I feel loved
Oh, no... oh...
'Cause I feel loved
'Cause I feel loved
Oh, yeah, I feel loved
Oh, no... oh...

Old Forgotten Soldier
Reaching for a butterfly
Old soldiers never die
and the gun against their shoulder
Well, it gets a little older
And just like that old shoulder
it just gets put away
Well, I'm an old, forgotten soldier,
since they put an end to war.
And i like to tell my story,
But you don't wanna hear about the war.
I'm an old, forgotten campain hero,
left without a cause,
because, they took away my wars.
I'm an old, forgotten railroad,
a broken, lonely ammo-train.
And my rusty ammunition
has been left out in the rain
I'm an old, forgotten part-time doughboy
I tried to save the world
The world was round,
we fired around,
heard all around the world
I'm an old, forgotten campaign hero
Left without a cause,
because, they took away my wars.
I'm an old, forgotten railroad
A deserted ammo-train
And my rusty ammunition
has been left out in the rain.
...

The Moonbeam Song
Have you ever watched a moonbeam
As it slid across your windowpane
Or struggled with a bit of rain
Or dance about the weathervane
Or settle on a moving train
And wonder where the train has been
Or on a fence with bits of crap
Around its bottom
Blown there by a windbeam
Who searches for a moonbeam
Who was last seen
Looking at the tracks
Of the careless windbeam
Or moving to the tracks
Of the tireless freight train
And lighting up the sides
Of the weathervane
And the bits of rain
And the windowpane
And the eyes of those
Who think they saw what happened
Have you ever watched a moonbeam
As it slid across your windowpane
Or struggled with a bit of rain
Or dance about the weathervane
Or settle on a moving train
And wonder where the train has been
Ah-ah-aah-ah
Ah-ah-aah-ah
Ah-ah-aah-ah
Looking at the tracks
Of the careless windbeam
And moving to the tracks
Of the tireless freight train
And lighting up the sides
Of the weathervane
And the bits of rain
And the windowpane
And the eyes of those
Who think they saw what happened
**************************************
Without You
No, I can't forget this evening
Or your face as you were leaving
But I guess that's just the way the story goes
You always smile but in your eyes your sorrow shows
Yes, it shows
No, I can't forget tomorrorow
When I think of all my sorrows
When I had you there but then I let you go
And now it's only fair that I should let you know
What you should know
I can't live if living is without you
I can't live, I can't give any more
Can't live if living is without you
I can't give, I can't give any more
No, I can't forget this evening
Or your face as you were leaving
But I guess that's just the way the story goes
You always smile but in your eyes your sorrow shows
Yes, it shows
Can't live if living is without you
I can't live, I can't give anymore
I can't live if living is without you
Can't live, I can't give anymore
(Living is without you)
