Coldplay - Warning Sign

A warning sign
I missed the good part, then I realised
I started looking and the bubble burst
I started looking for excuses
Come on in
I've gotta tell you what a state I'm in
I've gotta tell you in my loudest tones
That I started looking for a warning sign

When the truth is, I miss you
Yeah the truth is, that I miss you so

A warning sign
It came back to haunt me, and I realised
That you were an island and I passed you by
And you were an island to discover

Come on in
I've gotta tell you what a state I'm in
I've gotta tell you in my loudest tones
That I started looking for a warning sign

When the truth is, I miss you
Yeah the truth is, that I miss you so

And I'm tired, I should not have let you go
Oooooooo

So I crawl back into your open arms
Yes I crawl back into your open arms
And I crawl back into your open arms
Yes I crawl back into your open arms.

[v120176]

Well, let the depresion starts!! I heard that from Evanescence, it's strange, but goes well for the comatose Cordy

Hello

playground school bell rings again
rain clouds come to play again
has no one told you she's not breathing?
hello i'm your mind giving you someone to talk to
hello

if i smile and don't believe
soon i know i'll wake from this dream
don't try to fix me i'm not broken
hello i'm the lie living for you so you can hide
don't cry

suddenly i know i'm not sleeping
hello i'm still here
all that's left of yesterday




MISSING

Please, please forgive me,
But I won't be home again.
Maybe someday you'll have woke up,
And, barely conscious, you'll say to no one:
"Isn't something missing?"

You won't cry for my absence, I know -
You forgot me long ago.
Am I that unimportant...?
Am I so insignificant...?
Isn't something missing?
Isn't someone missing me?

[CHORUS]
Even though I'd be sacrificed,
You won't try for me, not now.
Though I'd die to know you love me,
I'm all alone.
Isn't someone missing me?

Please, please forgive me,
But I won't be home again.
I know what you do to yourself,
Shudder deep and cry out:
"Isn't something missing?
Isn't someone missing me?"

[CHORUS]

And if I bleed, I'll bleed,
Knowing you don't care.
And if I sleep just to dream of you
And wake without you there,
Isn't something missing?
Isn't something...

[CHORUS]

[LaLa247]

"Hello" is a great C/A song. Depressing as all hell, but great. Two more Evanescence songs...

Evanescence - Taking Over Me

You don't remember me
But I remember you
I lie awake and try so hard
Not to think of you
But who can decide what they dream?
And dream I do...

I believe in you
I'll give up everything just to find you
I have to be with you to live to breathe
You're taking over me

Have you forgotten all I know
and all we had?
You saw me mourning my love for you
and touched my hand
I knew you loved me then

I believe in you
I'll give up everything just to find you
I have to be with you to live to breathe
You're taking over me

I look in the mirror and see your face
If I look deep enough
So many things inside that are
just like you taking over me

Evanescence - My Last Breath

Hold on to me, love
You know I can't stay long
All I wanted to say was I love you and I'm not afraid
Can you hear me?
Can you feel me in your arms?

Holding my last breath
Safe inside myself
Are all my thoughts of you
Sweet raptured light
It ends here tonight

I'll miss the winter
A world of fragile things
Look for me in the white forest
Hiding in a hollow tree (Come find me)

I know you hear me
I can taste it in your tears

Holding my last breath
Safe inside myself
Are all my thoughts of you
Sweet raptured light
It ends here tonight

Closing your eyes to disappear
You pray your dreams will leave you here
But still you wake and know the truth
No one's there

Say goodnight
Don't be afraid
Calling me Calling me as you fade to black

And now I'm despressed.

U2 - I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For

I have climbed highest mountain
I have run through the fields
Only to be with you
Only to be with you


I have run
I have crawled
I have scaled these city walls
These city walls
Only to be with you


But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for


I have kissed honey lips
Felt the healing in her fingertips
It burned like fire
This burning desire


I have spoke with the tongue of angels
I have held the hand of a devil
It was warm in the night
I was cold as a stone


But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for


I believe in the kingdom come
Then all the colors will bleed into one
Bleed into one
Well yes I'm still running


You broke the bonds and you
Loosed the chains
Carried the cross
Of my shame
Of my shame
You know I believed it


But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for...


This is my favorite U2 song.

[Little Heaven]

Does anyone remember 80's pop band Go West? (We Close Our Eyes, Call Me, King of Wishful Thinking - from Pretty Woman). Well the lead singer, Peter Cox has a wonderful solo album, self titled, and the song "Change" on that album always makes me think instantly of our favourite couple. I always imagine Cordy telling Angel these words - it's her accepting him as he is:

What's hanging you up, what's getting you down?
Open your soul to me
There is no part of you
I don't want to see...
You can't be all you hope for
All of the time - no-one can
So just be yourself tonight
Let the devil out, let it out on me

I don't want to change who you are
I just want to be with you
I've got nothing to give you but my heart
And the shine on my shoes (Cordy HAS to have a shoe reference LOL)
I can't make your dreams reality
I ain't gonna lie to you
But I won't try to change who you are
That's my promise to you

So no holding back, no keeping it in
Just tell me everything
There ain't a thing you can say
That I don't want to hear
Don't try to hide some dark side
Cause I'm not afraid - I'm not afraid
Just be yourself tonight
Let the devil out on me...

I don't want to change who you are
I just want to be with you
I've got nothing to give you but my heart
And the shine on my shoes
I can't make your dreams reality
I ain't gonna lie to you
But there'll never be a bridge too far
If it takes me, takes me to you

Our eyes reveal us
In a silent way
Yours are confessing now
And I hear what they say
I hear what they say...
Don't you want to confess to me?
Don't you want to take the devil out on me?
Let it out on me
Don't you want to confess to me?
Don't you want to take the devil out on me?
Let the devil out on me

I don't want to change who you are
I just want to be with you
I've got nothing to give you but my heart
And the shine on my shoes
I can't make your dreams reality
I ain't gonna lie to you
But I won't try to change who you are
That's my promise to you

- written by Peter Cox/Peter-John Vettese

[Keisha]

"Missing" totally makes me want to cry. It's all Amy's fault with that darn great voice of hers. Anyways i won't continue with Evanescence but i will with Coldplay. I didn't even really like this song at first, i was just obsessed with warning sign. It wasn't until i was reading the lyrics that C/A came into my head.

Green eyes

Honey you are a rock
Upon which I stand
And I come here to talk
I hope you understand

The green eyes
Yeah the spotlight
Shines upon you

And how could
Anybody
Deny you

I came here with a load
And it feels so much lighter
Now I met you

Honey you should know
That I could never go on
Without you

Green eyes

Honey you are the sea
Upon which I float
And I came here to talk
I think you should know

That green eyes
You're the one that I wanted to find
And anyone who tried to deny you,
Must be out of their mind

Because I came here with a load
And it feels so much lighter since I met you

And honey you should know,
That I could never go on
Without you

Green eyes, green eyes, ohohoh...

Honey you are a rock
Upon which I stand.

Just replace green with hazel and it fits.

Billie myers - Kiss the rain

Hello
Can you hear me?
Am I gettin' through to you

Hello
Is it late there?
There's a laughter on the line
Are you sure you're there alone?

Cause I'm
Tryin' to explain
Something's wrong
Ya just don't sound the same

Why don't you
Why don't you
Go outside

Chorus:
Kiss the rain
Whenever you need me
Kiss the rain
Whenever I'm gone, too long
If you lips
Feel lonely and thirsty
Kiss the rain
And wait for the dawn.
Keep in mind
We're under the same sky
And the nights
As empty for me as for you
If ya feel
You can't wait till morining
Kiss the rain (3x)

Hello
Do you miss me?
I hear you say you do
But not the way I'm missing you

What's new?
How's the weather?
Is it stormy where you are?
Cause I'm so close
But feels like you're so far
Oh would it mean anything
If you knew
What I'm left imagining
In my mind
In my mind

Would you go
Would you go
Kiss the rain

And you'd fall over me
Think of me (3x)
Only me

[brahmsviolin]

Two songs by Josh Groban - the first I always thought of when Cordy was "gone" and then the other applies to now and the Angel I want to see:

To Where You Are

Who can say for certain?
Maybe you're still here.
I feel you all around me -
Your memory so clear.
Deep in the stillness, I can hear you speak.
You're still an inspiration.
Can it be...

That you are here, forever, love,
And you are watching over me from up above?
Fly me up to where you are beyond the distant star-
I wish upon tonight to see you smile,
If only for awhile, to know you're there.
A breath away's not far to where you are

Are you gently sleeping, here inside my dream?
And isn't faith believing, all power can't be seen?
As my heart holds you, just one beat away,
I cherish all you gave me everyday.
'Cause you are mine, forever,love,
Watching me from up above.
And I believe that angels (breathe?)
And that love will live on and never leave.

Fly me up to where you are, beyond the distant star
I wish upon tonight to see you smile,
If only for awhile to know you're there-
A breath away's not far to where you are.
I know you're there...
A breath away's not far to where you are.

You're Still You

Through the darkness, I can see your light;
And you will always shine,
And I can feel your heart in mine.
Your face I've memorized, I idolize just you.

I look up to everything you are;
In my eyes you do no wrong.
I've loved you for so long, and after all is said and done,
You're still you.
After all, you're still you.

You walk past me -
I can feel your pain.
Time changes everything;
One truth always stays the same -
You're still you
After all, you're still you.

I look up to everything you are;
In my eyes you do no wrong.
And I believe in you, although you never asked me to.
I will remember you, and what I've put you through.
And in this cruel and lonely world,
I found one love...
You're still you,
After all, you're still you

[brahmsviolin]

Clearly, I need to get myself some Evanesce!! The words that are posted here are making me very nostalgic for my C/A hopes.

Lost Without You- Delta Goodrem

I know I can be a little stubborn sometimes (I say)
A little righteous and too proud
I just wanna find a way to compromise
Cause I believe we can work things out

I thought that I had all the answers
never givin in
but baby since you've gone
I admit that I was wrong

All I know is I'm lost without you
I'm not gonna lie
how am I gonna be strong without you
I need you by my side
if we ever say we'd never be together
and we ended with goodbye
don't know what I'd do
im lost without you

I keep trying to find my way
and all I know is im lost without you
I keep trying to face the day
I'm lost without you

How am I ever gonna get rid of these blues
baby I'm so lonely all the time
everywhere I go I get so confused
your the only thing thats on my mind

On my bed so cold at night
I miss you more each day
only you can make it right
no I'm not too proud to say

All I know is I'm lost without you
I'm not gonna lie
how am I gonna be strong without you
I need you by my side
if we ever say we'd never be together
and we ended with goodbye
don't what I'd do
I'm lost without you

I keep trying to find my way
and all I know is I'm lost without you
I keep trying to face the day
I'm lost without you

If I could only hold you now
make the pain just go away
can't stop the tears from running down my face (ho)

All I know is I'm lost without you
I'm not gonna lie
how am I gonna be strong without you
I need you by my side
if we ever say we'd never be together
and we ended with goodbye
don't know what I'd do
I'm lost without you

I keep trying to find my way
and all I know is im lost without you
I keep trying to face the day
an all I know is
I'm lost without your love
I keep trying to find my way
and all I know is
I'm lost without you (ho)
I'm lost without you

[LaLa247]

Possession - Sarah McLachlan

Listen as the wind blows
from across the great divide
Voices trapped in yearning
memories trapped in time
The night is my companion
and solitude my guide
Would I spend forever here
and not be satisfied

And I would be the one to hold you down
Kiss you so hard
I'll take your breath away
And after I wipe away the tears
Just close your eyes
dear

Through this world I've stumbled
so many times betrayed
trying to find an honest word
to find the truth enslaved
You speak to me in riddles
And you speak to me in rhymes
My body aches to breathe your breath
Your words keep me alive

And I would be the one to hold you down
Kiss you so hard
I'll take your breath away
And after I wipe away the tears
Just close your eyes
dear

Into this night I wander
It's morning that I dread
Another day of knowing the
path I fear to tread
Into the sea of waking dreams
I follow without pride
'Cause nothing stands between us here
And I won't be denied

And I would be the one to hold you down
Kiss you so hard
I'll take your breath away
And after I wipe away the tears
Just close your eyes
dear

I'll hold you down
Kiss you so hard
I'll take your breath away
And after I wipe away the tears
Just close your eyes...


Why - Annie Lennox

How many times do I have to try to tell you
That I'm sorry for the things I've done
But when I start to try to tell you
That's when you have to tell me
Hey
this kind of trouble's only just begun

I tell myself too many times
Why don't you ever learn to keep your big mouth shut
That's why it hurts so bad to hear the words
That keep on falling from your mouth

Falling from your mouth
Falling from your mouth
Tell me
Why
Why

I may be mad
I may be blind
I may be viciously unkind
But I can still read what you're thinking

And I've heard it said too many times
That you'd be better off
Besides
Why can't you see this boat is sinking

Let's go down to the water's edge
And we can cast away those doubts
Some things are better left unsaid
But they still turn me inside out

Turning inside out
turning inside out
Tell me

Why
Tell me
Why

This is the book I never read
These are the words I never said
This is the path I'll never tread
These are the dreams I'll dream instead
This is the joy that's seldom spread
These are the tears
The tears we shed
This is the fear
This is the dread
These are the contents of my head

And these are the years that we have spent
And this is what they represent
And this is how I feel
Do you know how I feel?
'Cause I don't think you know how I feel
I don't think you know what I feel
I don't think you know what I feel

You don't know what I feel

[loveangel]

Yay! Possession - I can sing it...

Bright lights - Matchbox 20

She got out of town on the railway, new york bound
Took all except my name
Another alien on broadway
Well, some things in this world you just can't change
Some things you can't see until it gets too late

[Chorus]

Baby, baby, baby when all your love is gone
Who will save me from all I'm up against out in this world
And maybe, maybe, maybe
You'll find something that's enough to keep you
But if the bright lights don't receive you
You should turn yourself around and come on home

I got a hole in me now
I got a scar I can talk about
She keeps a picture of me in her apartment in the city
But some things in this world
Man, they don't make sense
Some things you don't leave until they leave you
And then the things that you miss, you say

[Chorus]

Baby, baby, baby when all your love is gone
Who will save me from all I'm up against out in this world
And maybe, maybe, maybe
You'll find something that's enough to keep you
But if the bright lights don't receive you
You should turn yourself around and come on home

Let that city take you in (come on home)
Let that city spit you out (come on home)
Let that city take you down, yeah
For god sakes turn around

[Chorus]

Baby, baby, baby when all your love is gone
Who will save me from all I'm up against out in this world
Yeah well, maybe, maybe, maybe
You'll find something that's enough to keep you
But if the bright lights dont receive you
Well, turn yourself around and come on home

Yeah, come on home
Baby, baby, baby, baby
Come on home
Yeah, come on home
Yeah, come on home
Yeah, come on home
Baby, baby, baby, baby
Come on home

[LaLa247]

One mo'...

I'm Not Giving You Up - Gloria Estefan

To be completely honest
It scares me to imagine
What life would be without you

And for this very reason
I ask you to forgive me
For what I'm putting us through

Although
there are so many things against us
I've decided
That I'm not giving you up
No...

Thinking back I see what we have
is something different
I think we've known all along
So how fair would it be
To divide this love's existence
Between what's right and what's wrong

And you
always wondering if we'll make it
Time will tell you
That I'm not giving you up
no...

No...

We'll find a way to be together
However long it takes
wherever
If it means having you for only a moment
A moment just might be enough
I'm not giving you up
No...

No
I'm not giving you up
No...

Screaming in the silence
the promises we've spoken
Come back to haunt me
false and broken
Quiet desperation
to see we're lost forever
Searching for water in the desert

No
I refuse to have to do
Without your kisses
I'm not giving you up
No...

No...

We'll find a way to be together
However long it takes wherever
If it means having you for only a moment
A moment just might be enough
I'm not giving you up
No...

No
I'm not giving you up
No...

Not giving you up

[Clln]

My last Coldplay song and one from Heather Nova.

A Rush Of Blood To The Head - Coldplay

You said I'm gonna buy this place and burn it down,
I'm gonna put it six feet underground,
You said I'm gonna buy this place and watch it fall,
Stand here beside me baby in the crumbling walls,
Oh I'm gonna buy this place and start a fire,
Stand here until I fill all your hearts desires,
Because I'm gonna buy this place and see it burn,
And do back the things it did to you in return

You said I'm gonna buy a gun and start a war,
If you can tell me something worth fighting for,
Oh and I'm gonna buy this place is what I said,
Blame it upon a rush of blood to the head

Honey, all the movements you're starting to make,
See me crumble and fall on my face,
And I know the mistakes that I've made,
See it all disappear without a trace,
And they call as they beckon you on,
They say start as you need to go on,
Start as you need to go on,
Start as you need to go on

Said I'm gonna buy this place and see it go,
Stand here beside me baby, watch the orange glow,
Some'll laugh and some just sit and cry,
You just sit down there and you wonder why,

So I'm gonna buy a gun and start a war,
If you can tell me something worth fighting for,
I'm gonna buy this place is what I said,
Blame it upon a rush of blood to the head,
Oh to the head

Coz' honey, all the movements you're starting to make,
See me crumble and fall on my face,
And I know the mistakes that I've made,
See it all disappear without a trace,
And they call as they beckon you on,
They say start as you need to go on,
As you need to go on
As you need to go on

So meet me by the bridge,
Meet me by the lane,
When am I gonna see that pretty face again,
Oh meet me on the road,
Meet me where I said,
Blame it all upon a rush of blood to the head

London Rain - Heather Nova

I'm coming, i'm coming home to you
I'm alive I'm a mess
I can't wait to get home to you
To get warm, warm and undressed

There've been changes beyond my dreams
Everybody wants me to sing
There've been changes beyond my grasp
Things I'm sinking in

So keep me, keep me
In your bed all day, all day
Nothing heals me like you do
Nothing heals me like you do

And when somebody knows you well
Well there's no comfort like that
And when somebody needs you
Well there's no drug Iike that

So keep me, keep me
In your bed all day, all day
Nothing heals me like you do
Keep me keep me
In your bed all day, all day
Nothing heals me like you do

And where l'm home, curled in your arms
And I'm safe again
I'll close my eyes and sleep, sleep
To the sound of London Rain

So keep me, keep me
In your bed all day, all day
Nothing heals me like you do
Keep me keep me
In your bed all day, all day
Nothing heals me like you do
Nothing heals me like you do

Nothing falls like London Rain
Nothing heals me like you do

Nothing falls like London Rain
Nothing heals me like you do

Nothing falls like London Rain
Nothing heals me like you do

Born To Try-Delta Goodrem

Born to Try Lyricsoing everything that I believe in
Going by the rules that I’ve been taught
More understanding of what’s around me
And protected from the walls of love

All that you see is me
And all I truly believe

That I was born to try
I’ve learned to love
Be understanding
And believe in life
But you’ve got to make choices
Be wrong or right
Sometimes you’ve got to sacrifice the things you like

But I was born to try

No point in talking what you should have been
And regretting the things that went on
Life’s full of mistakes, destinies and fate
Remove the clouds look at the bigger picture

And all that you see is me
And all I truly believe

That I was born to try
I’ve learned to love
Be understanding
And believe in life
But you’ve got to make choices
Be wrong or right
Sometimes you’ve got to sacrifice the things you like

But I was born to try

All that you see is me
All I truly believe
All that you see is me
And all I truly believe

That I was born to try

I’ve learned to love
Be understanding
And believe in life
But you’ve got to make choices
Be wrong or right
Sometimes you’ve got to sacrifice the things you like

But I was born to try

But you’ve got to make choices
Be wrong or right
Sometimes you’ve got to sacrifice the things you like

But I was born to try

Evanescence-My Immortal

I’m so tired of being here
Suppressed by all my childish fears
And if you have to leave
I wish that you would just leave
’cause your presence still lingers here
And it won’t leave me alone

These wounds won’t seem to heal
This pain is just too real
There’s just too much that time cannot erase

[chorus:]
When you cried I’d wipe away all of your tears
When you’d scream I’d fight away all of your fears
I held your hand through all of these years
But you still have
All of me

You used to captivate me
By your resonating life
Now I’m bound by the life you left behind
Your face it haunts
My once pleasant dreams
Your voice it chased away
All the sanity in me

These wounds won’t seem to heal
This pain is just too real
There’s just too much that time cannot erase

[chorus]

I’ve tried so hard to tell myself that you’re gone
But though you’re still with me
I’ve been alone all along

[chorus]
