Only words...

Here's some of the lyrics to songs that I really liked... I like these songs for what they say, so I haven't bothered with the artist or band...

Come into these arms again, and lay your body down.
The rhythm of this trembling heart is beating like a drum.
It beats for you, it bleeds for you.
It knows not how it sounds.
For it is the drum of drums, it is the song of songs.

Once I had the rarest rose that ever dared to bloom,
Cruel winter chilled the bud and stole my flower too soon.
The loneliness, of hopelessness; To search the ends of time.
For there is in all the world, no greater love than mine.

Still falls the rain (still falls the night)

Goodbye forever....

Let me be the only one to keep you from the cold.
Now the floor of Hell is lain with stars of brightest gold.
They shine for you. They shine for you. They burn for all to see.

Come into these arms again, and set this spirit free...

Sometimes I feel like I don't know,
Sometimes I feel like checking out.
I want to get it wrong - can't always be strong.
And love - it won't be long
Oh sugar, don't you cry,
Oh child, wipe the tears from your eyes.
You know I need you to be strong,
And the day is as dark and the night is long.
Feel like trash, you make me feel clean.
I'm in the black - can't see or be seen.
Baby, baby, baby - Light my way.
(Alright) Baby, baby, baby - Light my way
You bury your treasure where it can't be found.
But your love is like a secret - that's been passed around.
There is a silence that comes to a house,
Where no one can sleep.
I guess its the price of love,
I know it's not cheap.
Oh come on, Baby, baby, baby - Light my way.
(Oh, come on) Baby, baby, baby - Light my way (Ultraviolet)
I remember when we could sleep on stones,
But now we lie together in whispers and moans,
When I was all messed up,
and I heard opera in my head.
Your moon was a lightbulb,
hanging over my bed.
Baby, baby, baby - Light my way.

(Oh come on...) Baby, baby, baby - Light my way (Ultraviolet)
