don't you sit upon the shoreline

And say you're satisfied

Choose to chance the rapids

And dare to dance that tide.....Garth brooks the river

Bruno Mars new song is just brill

We should be dancing, romancing, in the east wing

And the west wing of this mansion, what's happenin'?

I ain't playin' no games

Every word that I say

Is coming straight from the heart

So if you tryna lay in these arms

I'ma leave the door open

(I'ma leave the door open)

I'ma leave the door open, girl

(I'ma leave the door open, hopin')

That you feel the way I feel

And you want me like I want you tonight, baby

Tell me…

Yeah, I got a fistful of your hair

But you don't look like you're scared

You just smile and tell me, "Daddy, it's yours."

'Cause you know how I like it,

You's a dirty little lover

If the neighbors call the cops,

Call the sheriff, call the SWAT ? we don't stop,

We keep rocking while they're knocking on our door

And you're screaming, "Give it to me baby,Give it to me motherfucker!"

Oh, look what you're doing, look what you've done

But in this jungle you can't run

'Cause what I got for you

I promise it's a killer,

You'll be banging on my chest

Bang bang, gorilla

Bruno Mars - Gorilla

Such a strange affair.

Walking around, be part of the sound,

Forget all your downs.

Feel the air.

Beautiful affair.

We're just two lost souls

Swimming in a fish bowl

Year after year

Running over the same old ground

What have we found?

The same old fears

Wish you were here..

Enjoy the power and beauty of your youth

oh nevermind;

you will not understand the power and beauty of your youth until they have faded

But trust me, in 20 years you'll look back at photos of yourself

and recall in a way you can't grasp now how much possibility lay before

you and how fabulous you really looked...

You are not as fat as you imagine

Love that song

When I find out all the reasons

Maybe I'll find another way

Find another day

With all the changing seasons of my life

Maybe I'll get it right next time

An now that you've been broken down

Got your head out of the clouds

You're back down on the ground

And you don't talk so loud

An you don't walk so proud

Any more, and what for

Well I jumped into the river

Too many times to make it home

I'm out here on my own, an drifting all alone

If it doesn't show give it time

To read between the lines

'Cause I see the storm getting closer

And the waves they get so high

Seems everything we've ever known's here

Why must it drift away and die

I'll never find anyone to replace you

Guess I'll have to make it through, this time - oh this time

Without you

I knew the storm was getting closer

And all my friends said I was high

But everything we've ever known's here

I never wanted it to die

I don't wanna love the way I loved before

I don't wanna love that way no more

What've I been writing love songs for?

I don't want to write them anymore

I don't wanna sing from where I sang before

I don't wanna sing that way no more

What've I've been singing love songs for?

I don't wanna sing them anymore,

I don't wanna be that girl no more

I don't wanna cry no more

I don't wanna die no more

So cut me down from this here tree

Cut the rope from off of me

Set me on the floor,

I'm the only one I should adore

This song gave me power

Lying In The Arms of Mary...Sutherland Bros & Quiver...

The lights shine down the valley

The wind blows up the alley, oh

Well I wish I was lying in the arms of Mary

She took the pains of boyhood

And turned them in to feel good, oh

How I wish I was lying in the arms of Mary

Mary was the girl who taught me all I had to know

She put me right on my first mistake

Summer wasn't good when I learned all she had to show

She really gave all a boy could take, oh

So now when I get lonely

Still looking for the one and only

That's when I wish was lying in the arms of Mary

To the town of Agua Fria rode a stranger one fine day

Hardly spoke to folks around him, didn't have too much to say

No one dared to ask his business, no one dared to make a slip

For the stranger there among them had a big iron on his hip

Big iron on his hip

It was early in the morning when he rode into the town

He came riding from the south side slowly lookin' all around

He's an outlaw loose and running, came the whisper from each lip

And he's here to do some business with the big iron on his hip

Big iron on his hip

In this town there lived an outlaw by the name of Texas Red

Many men had tried to take him and that many men were dead

He was vicious and a killer though a youth of 24

And the notches on his pistol numbered one and 19 more

One and 19 more

Now the stranger started talking, made it plain to folks around

Was an Arizona ranger, wouldn't be too long in town

He came here to take an outlaw back alive or maybe dead

And he said it didn't matter he was after Texas Red

After Texas Red

Wasn't long before the story was relayed to Texas Red

But the outlaw didn't worry men that tried before were dead

20 men had tried to take him, 20 men had made a slip

21 would be the ranger with the big iron on his hip

Big iron on his hip

The morning passed so quickly, it was time for them to meet

It was 20 past 11 when they walked out in the street

Folks were watching from the windows, everybody held their breath

They knew this handsome ranger was about to meet his death

About to meet his death

There was 40 feet between them when they stopped to make their play

And the swiftness of the ranger is still talked about today

Texas Red had not cleared leather 'fore a bullet fairly ripped

And the ranger's aim was deadly with the big iron on his hip

Big iron on his hip

It was over in a moment and the folks had gathered round

There before them lay the body of the outlaw on the ground

Oh, he might have went on living but he made one fatal slip

When he tried to match the ranger with the big iron on his hip

Big iron on his hip

Big iron, big iron

When he tried to match the ranger with the big iron on his hip

Big iron on his hip

Savage Daughter

I am my mother's savage daughter

The one who runs barefoot

Cursing sharp stones

I am my mother's savage daughter

I will not cut my hair

I will not lower my voice (chorus)

My mother's child is a savage

She looks for her omens in the colors of stones

In the faces of cats, in the falling of feathers

In the dancing of fire

In the curve of old bones

(Chorus)

My mother's child dances in darkness

She sings heathen songs

By the light of the moon

And watches the stars and renames the planets

And dreams she can reach them

With a song and a broom

(Chorus)

We are all brought forth out of darkness

Into this world, through blood and through pain

And deep in our bones, the old songs are waking

So sing them with voices of thunder and rain

(Chorus)

We are our mother's savage daughters

We will not cut our hair

We will not lower our voice

I'll be your dream, I'll be your wish, I'll be your fantasy

I'll be your hope, I'll be your love, be everything that you need

I love you more with every breath truly, madly, deeply do

I will be strong, I will be faithful 'cause I'm counting on

A new beginnin'

A reason for livin'

A deeper meaning, yeah

I wanna stand with you on a mountain

I wanna bathe with you in the sea

I wanna lay like this forever

Until the sky falls down on me

And when the stars are shining brightly in the velvet sky

I'll make a wish, send it to heaven and make you want to cry

The tears of joy for all the pleasure and the certainty

That we're surrounded by the comfort and protection

Of the highest powers

In lonely hours

The tears devour you

An' I wanna stand with you on a mountain

I wanna bathe with you in the sea

I wanna lay like this forever

Until the sky falls down on me

Oh, can you see it, baby?

You don't have to close your eyes

It's standin' right before you

All that you need will surely come

Ooh, yeah

I'll be your dream, I'll be your wish, I'll be your fantasy

I'll be your hope, I'll be your love, be everything that you need

I'll love you more with every breath truly, madly, deeply do

I wanna stand with you on a mountain

I wanna bathe with you in the sea

I wanna lay like this forever

Until the sky falls down on me

I wanna stand with you on a mountain

I wanna bathe with you in the sea

I want to live like this forever

Until the sky falls down on me

Way down yonder on the Chattahoochee

It gets hotter than a hoochie coochie

We laid rubber on the Georgia asphalt

We got a little crazy but we never got caught

.

Down by the river on a Friday night

A pyramid of cans in the pale moonlight

Talking 'bout cars and dreaming 'bout women

Never had a plan just a livin' for the minute.

Yeah way down yonder on the Chattahoochee

Never knew how much that muddy water meant to me

But I learned how to swim and I learned who I was

A lot about livin' and a little 'bout love

Tune, though I've always preferred the alternate lyrics though that may be because it was the first version I heard

I thought I could live in your world

As years all went by

With all the voices I've heard

Something has died

And when you're in need of someone

My heart won't deny you

So many seem so lonely

With no one left to cry to baby

Love him or hate him it's hard to deny Axl Rose is an awesome lyricist
