Most Commented Song/Lyric Poems (408)

Told me that you loved me
You led me through your door
You give me your affections
I never asked for more

But now you're getting restless
I can see it in your eyes
You told me that you loved me
Now you tell me that you lied

Girl don't tell me you don't want me
You know I'm not that strong
I gave up my defenses
When you convinced me I belonged

You tell me that I'll love again
But I can't believe it's true
What have I to love with
I gave my heart to you

Goodbye is never easy, I know
Even the one who goes
Gets hurt too

And it drives me crazy, just wondering
If you're somewhere thinking of me
While I'm lying here thinking of you

Told her that I loved her
I led her through my door
I give her my affections
She doesn't ask for more

But I know she holds the question
As the fire fades so fast
If love always lasts forever
How come forever never lasts

If love always lasts forever
How come forever never lasts

How come it never lasts

If love always last forever
How come forever never lasts

Here she comes again
Like a long lost friend
You know she'll only drag you around
You can't chain the wind to the ground
But here she comes again

And she drags you down
Makes you play the clown
You know she's only leading you on
You will never be the tune to her song
But here she comes again

Yeah you told me you'd break free someday
But I can see that you're still wearing chains
Too many lonely nights
Too many sad goodbyes
Too much pain

And she leaves you like before
Close your eyes, and close the door
All you know is that you've lost at the game
You try to find some way to deal with the pain
Until she comes again

Until she comes again

Verse I

I hitch to get to where I need.
I have no car you see.
Times are rough,
But I am tough,
Sometimes you gotta be.
I get good rides most of the time,
At others it's no go.
It's all good
Get what I should.
On the side of the road.


Chorus

On the side of the road,
On the side of the road,
You never know,
How it wiill go,
On the side of the road.


Verse II

There's money lost and money found,
A crapshoot at the best.
Take the things,
Good fortune brings,
And disregard the rest.
I've found the thing to do is just,
Sit back and watch the flow.
What goes by,
Upon the tide,
On the side of the road.


Verse III

Sometimes there are people too,
Out wanderin' around.
Just like me,
They're try'n' to see,
What's out there to be found.
Some are nice and some are mean,
You never really know.
Some are out,
Just roam'n' about,
On the side of the road.

Verse I

We circled round and round at first,
Unsure of where we'd go.
Two strangers reaching out to find,
Just what there was to know.
But as the days and weeks went by,
I came to be quite sure.
That something special we had found,
So true, so bright, so pure.


Chorus

My darling baby girl,
You have become my world
I'm all wrapped up in you.
Love everything you do.
You cause my pride to stand,
When you call me your man.
My darling baby girl,
You have become my world


Verse II

It took a while for you to see,
That you were meant for me.
But then you caught a glimmering,
Through an epiphany.
You weren't ready to commit,
Yourself to me in full.
But I was quite persistant and,
Now you could feel my pull.


Verse III

And then a spot of clarity,
Brought your eyes open wide.
We're half a world a way and yet,
We stood there side by side.
Now you're as sure as I am dear,
You finally can see,
That what we have's a gem so rare,
We were just meant to be.

My jeans are ripped, my boots are dry and muddy
You can tell that I drink beer and not champagne
I'm the kind of girl who likes to keep things simple
I've never longed for fortune of fame

My best friend is my dog, not a diamond
Diamonds don't snuggle up to you when you cry
And I don't like the thought, of being bought
A girl in love is something you can't buy

Yeah, I'm happy just the way things are, boy
There's not much more that I need
A dry land crop doesn't need alot of rain
A shower now and then will get it through
And in a way I am like that barren bit of land
All I need is a rain drop from you

So cancel those dinner reservations
Instead let's take the dogs down to the creek
We'll pack a picnic lunch, we'll lie there in the sun
What a perfect way to end a working week

Yeah, I'm happy just the way things are, boy
There's not much more that I need
A dry land crop doesn't need alot of rain
A shower now and then will get it through
And in a way I am like that barren bit of land
All I need is a rain drop from you

A dry land crop doesn't need alot of rain
A shower now and then will get it through
And in a way I am like that barren bit of land
All I need is a rain drop from you

All I need is a rain drop from you
All I need is a rain drop from you

Verse I

All we have for now,
Is not enough somehow.
We will get the chance,
And fin'ly have that dance.


Chorus

Lonliness hurts so bad.
My enpty arms are sad.
You have these feelings too.
My heart goes out to you.
Baby love you so much.
Just longing for your touch.
My enpty arms are sad.
Lonliness hurts so bad.


Verse II

Cottage by the sea,
Just for you an' me.
Be our honeymoon,
Holding on for June.


Verse III

Baby when we meet,
I'll kiss you my sweet.
Then you'll know it's true
Fallen into you.

Free up your mind and wonder
take your hurt away
when all your head is gone
when you know you don't belong
sentimental journeys all
take my hand and we'll fly away

Lay your head on mine
share the heavy heart
its over now
if i can i'll help you anyhow
turn a frown into a smile
take my hand and we will fly away

Some may even say
to hold a truth in lies
i'll be moving on
love should sing to me a pretty song
all i hear is minor keys
take my hand and we'll fly away

On angels wings we ride
heaven surely hides
keep us from safe from harm
shelter lessons learned that hate derides
i'll let you go so long, goodbye
my only love you can, fly away.

fly away, fly fly away,
fly away fly away……... fly away……….
fly away……….....
fly away

She wakes up every morning with a smile,oh how she wears her mask so well.
She'll tell me stories about her life,but their are some she never will tell.
She drinks a cup of coffee and stares out the window,tells me how she came here at sixteen.
She smiles and say's she was so young and so naive,how she fell for the Hollywood dream.
Oh Lilah,Sweet Lilah,she cries and say's she's an angel with dirty wings.
Oh Lilah,Sweet Lilah,say's she's cried enough tears to wash them clean.
She tells me 'bout the time when she was a dancer down on the strip, say's if i'd ever saw her i'd never forget her.
She say's she's only been in love,once in her life,and that was with the pills that made her feel better.
And she talks about nights,workin the streets down on the boulevard,she say's the money never lasts as long as the scars.
Workin by the hour in hotel rooms down on sunset,and in the mornin' she'd drink away her shame in the bars.
Oh Lilah,Sweet Lilah,she cries and say's she's an angel with dirty wings.
Oh Lilah,Sweet Lilah,say's she's cried enough tears to wash them clean.
She tells me about the time she woke up alone in the hospital,say's they had her tied down to the bed.
Seems her landlord found her in her bathroom with a needle in her arm,she say's she's lucky she's not dead.
She shows me a picture,say's it's her daughter,she lives in Portland,starts to cry and say's they took her away.
She lights a cigarette and say's that was no life for a child, she's grown now, she'll see her some day.
Oh Lilah,Sweet Lilah,she cries and say's she's an angel with dirty wings.
Oh Lilah,Sweet Lilah,say's she's cried enough tears to wash them clean.
She tells me about the day she walked away, how she left that life behind,say's she didn't know what she would do.
She got a job workin' as a waitress on Hollywood and Vine and at night she went back to school.
Now she works as a counselor out on those streets every night,she's trying to help so many young girls.
So many of them say their thankful for the day they met Sweet Lilah,they say how much she's changed their world.
Oh Lilah,Sweet Lilah,she cries and say's she's an angel with dirty wings.
Oh Lilah,Sweet Lilah,Say's she's cried enough tears to wash them clean.
I saw Lilah the other day,said she'd been to the doctor,she said he told her some bad news.
She just shook her head and said the life she'd lead had come back to haunt her,she smiled and said there's nothing they can do.
She started packing a bag,she started to cry,said i'm goin' to Portland,maybe I can make it there by tonight.
She holds up that picture of her ltiile girl and say's,i've done so much wrong at least I did one thing right.
Oh Lilah,Sweet Lilah,she cries and say's she's an angel with dirty wings.
Oh Lilah,Sweet Lilah,say's she's cried enough tears to wash them clean.


If youd like to hear this song as well a some of my others go to give em a listen and let me know what you think

Verse I

Pow'rs that be play politics,
To them we're only pawns.
Glories past won't help with this,
Those days have come and gone.


Chorus

Our dreams all turned to dust.
To feed their power lust,
They have betrayed our trust.
What's to become of us?


Verse II

Their posturing position,
Self-serving one and all,
Leading us to destruction,
We're headed for a fall.


Verse III

There must be some solution,
To stop this downhill slide.
Without some intervention,
The end is suicide.

Do you miss me through the shadow of darkness, I can see you but i'm blinded by our love, things that i do take for granted by one should always be appreciated.

Our love was strong but now that we're apart all the memories are always there, locked up inside of deep emotion i wonder what will happen to us. I've been hurt so who do i learn to no and trust, draws like a magnet to each of us deviding two worlds apart through the power and strength of love.

What direction shall i follow will it be the right or wrong there is only one past way to choose.
