Fareham

When I find myself in times of trouble, Mother Mary comes to me

Speaking words of wisdom, let it be

And in my hour of darkness she is standing right in front of me

Speaking words of wisdom, let it be.

And when the night is cloudy there is still a light that shines on me

Shine until tomorrow, let it be

I wake up to the sound of music, Mother Mary comes to me

Speaking words of wisdom, let it be

The lyrics of this song spoke to me after my son died. So poignant.

little house on the praire

Lots of songs but this is the song for my mum

You were my strength when I was weak

You were my voice when I couldn't speak

You were my eyes when I couldn't see

You saw the best there was in me

Lifted me up when I couldn't reach

You gave me faith 'coz you believed

I'm everything I am

Because you loved me

You gave me wings and made me fly

You touched my hand I could touch the sky

I lost my faith, you gave it back to me

You said no star was out of reach

You stood by me and I stood tall

I had your love I had it all

I'm grateful for each day you gave me

Maybe I don't know that much

But I know this much is true

I was blessed because I was loved by you

Traffic's wild tonight"

Diamond smiles her cocktail smile.

Tonight she's in heavy disquise.

She looks at her wrist to clock the passing time.

Two from the Boss

"I put my heart and soul I put 'em high upon a shelf

Right next to the faith the faith that I'd lost in myself

I went down into the desert city

Just tryin' so hard to shed my skin

I crawled deep into some kind of darkness

Lookin' to burn out every trace of who I'd been

You do some sad sad things baby

When it's you you're tryin' to lose

You do some sad and hurtful things

I've seen living proof"

"A hurricane blows

Brings a hard rain

When the blue sky breaks

Feels like the world’s gonna change

We’ll start caring for each other like Jesus said that we might

I’m a Jack of all trades

We’ll be alright

The banker man grows fatter

The working man grows thin

It’s all happened before and it’ll happen again

It’ll happen again

They’ll bet your life

I’m a Jack of all trades

We’ll be alright

Now sometimes tomorrow comes soaked in treasure and blood

Here we stood the drought

Now we’ll stand the flood

There’s a new world coming

I can see the light

I’m a Jack of all trades

We’ll be alright

So you use what you’ve got

And you learn to make do

You take the old, you make it new

If I had me a gun

I’d find the bastards and shoot ‘em on sight"

And one that belongs in the grim and distant past...

"Cause no, no, nobody knows you

When you're down and out.

In your pocket, not one penny,

And as for friends, you don't have any.

When you finally get back up on your feet again,

Everybody wants to be your old long-lost friend.

Said it's mighty strange, without a doubt,

Nobody knows you when you're down and out."

Now I think I know what you tried to say to me,

How you suffered for your sanity,

How you tried to set them free.

They would not listen, they're not listening still.

Perhaps they never will...

For the relationship I have with Mrs Bus, Ronan Keatings 'You say it best ...' is very much applicable

It's amazing how

you can speak right to my heart

Without saying a word

you can light up the dark

Try as I may

I could never explain

What I hear when you don't say a thing

And for all those who feel cheated by a lover, Dolly Partons lyrics to 'Heartbreaker' are just bang on :

Here I sit all alone, thinkin' 'bout what I should have known

You made me think that I could need you

You weaved your magic spell and I believed you

Lookin back on you and me, promises that will never be

I truly thought we were lovers

But now I find that I'm just like all the others

Heartbreaker, wish that I had seen that love was blind

Sweet little love maker, takin my heart and leave me behind

Heartbreaker couldn't you be

Just a little more kind to me

Played with fire, felt its burn

I would have thought that I would have learned

I melted every time you kissed me

Every time you'd leave I thought that you would miss me

Heartbreaker, wish that I had seen that love was blind

Sweet little love maker, takin' my heart and leave me behind

Heartbreaker couldn't you be

Just a little more kind to me

This is what i sing to jay. Its by tammy wynette

It's nothing new

For a woman to love her man

Yes, I know familiar story

I know you'll understand.

And I've been loving you

A long, long time

So I'll make you a promise

I won't change my mind.

And you'll never be alone

Never broken hearted

If you think I love you now

I've just started.

Too many times

People break each other's heart

By making vows

That so quickly fall apart.

So as long as you want me

By your side

I'll be your woman, your lover

And I'll keep you satisfied.

And you'll never be alone

Never broken hearted

If you think I love you now

I've just started.

If you think I love you now

I've just started...

Just like a woman...

Nobody feels any pain

Tonight as I stand inside the rain

Ev'rybody knows

That Baby's got new clothes

But lately I see her ribbons and her bows

Have fallen from her curls

She takes just like a woman, yes she does

She makes love just like a woman, yes she does

And she aches just like a woman

But she breaks just like a little girl.

Queen Mary, she's my friend

Yes, I believe I'll go see her again

Nobody has to guess

That Baby can't be blessed

Till she finally sees that she's like all the rest

With her fog, her amphetamine and her pearls

She takes just like a woman, yes she does

She makes love just like a woman, yes she does

And she aches just like a woman

But she breaks just like a little girl.

It's was raining from the first

And I was dying there of thirst

So I came in here

And your long-time curse hurts

But what's worse

Is this pain in here

I can't stay in here

Ain't it clear that.

I just can't fit

Yes, I believe it's time for us to quit

When we meet again

Introduced as friends

Please don't let on that you knew me when

I was hungry and it was your world

Ah, you fake just like a woman, yes you do

You make love just like a woman, yes you do

Then you ache just like a woman

But you break just like a little girl.

The Town by The Cross

I know you leave, it's too long overdue

For far too long I've had nothin' new to show to you

Goodbye dry eyes, I watched your plane fade off west of the moon

And it felt so strange to walk away alone

There's no regrets, no tears goodbye

I don't want you back, we'd only cry again

Say goodbye again

The hours that were yours echo like empty rooms

The thoughts we used to share I now keep alone

I woke last night and spoke to you not thinking you were gone

And it felt so strange to lie awake alone

There's no regrets, no tears, goodbye

I don't want you back, we'd only cry again

Say goodbye again

Our friends are trying to turn my nights to day

Strange faces on your place can't keep the ghost away

Now just beyond the darkest hour and just behind the dawn

It still feels so strange to lead my life alone

There's no regrets, no tears, goodbye

I don't want you back, we'd only cry again

Say goodbye again

There's no regrets, no tears, goodbye

I don't want you back, we'd only cry again

Say goodbye again

Man's got his woman to take his seed

He's got the power - oh

She's got the need

She spends her life through pleasing up her man

She feeds him dinner or anything she can

She cries alone at night too often

He smokes and drinks and don't come home at all

Only women bleed

Man makes your hair gray

He's your life's mistake

All you're really lookin' for is an even break

He lies right at you

You know you hate this game

He slaps you once in a while and you live and love in pain

She cries alone at night too often

He smokes and drinks and don't come home at all

Only women bleed

Black eyes all of the time

Don't spend a dime

Clean up this grime

And you there down on your knees begging me please come

Watch me bleed.

Only women bleed

I think this has to be one of the saddest songs .. With all the post about lost love and stuff this week .

It's been seven hours and fifteen days

Since you took your love away

I go out every night and sleep all day

Since you took your love away

Since you been gone I can do whatever I want

I can see whomever I choose

I can eat my dinner in a fancy restaurant

But nothing

I said nothing can take away these blues

`Cause nothing compares

Nothing compares to you

It's been so lonely without you here

Like a bird without a song

Nothing can stop these lonely tears from falling

Tell me baby where did I go wrong

I could put my arms around every boy I see

But they'd only remind me of you

I went to the doctor n'guess what he told me

Guess what he told me

He said girl you better try to have fun

No matter what you do

But he's a fool

`Cause nothing compares

Nothing compares to you

All the flowers that you planted, mama

In the back yard

All died when you went away

I know that living with you baby was sometimes hard

But I'm willing to give it another try

Nothing compares

Nothing compares to you.

Coinciding with a few other things happening at the same time,hearing this at 14 changed my outlook and attitude..perhaps for ever

What kind of a fool do you think I am?

You think I know nothing of the modern world

All my life has been the same

I've learned to live by hate and pain

It's my inspiration drive -

I've learned more than you'll ever know

Even at school I felt quite sure

That one day I would be on top

And I'd look down upon the map

The teachers who said I'd be nothing -

This is the modern world that I've learnt about

This is the modern world, we don't need no one

To tell us what's right or wrong -

Say what you like 'cause I don't care

I know where I am and going too

It's somewhere I won't preview

Don't have to explain myself to you

I don't give two fucks about your review

For every last bruise you gave me

For every time I sat in tears

For the million ways you hurt me

I just wanna tell you this

You broke my world, made me strong

Thank you

Messed up my dreams, made me strong

Thank you

My head, near dead

Just the way you wanted it

My soul, stone cold

Cos I was under you're control

So young, so dumb

Knew just how to make me succumb

But I understand

To make yourself feel like a man

This song makes me cry , its so lovely .

one day like this .. Elbow .

Drinking in the morning sun

Blinking in the morning sun

Shaking off the heavy one

Heavy like a loaded gun

What made me behave that way?

Using words I never say

I can only think it must be love

Oh, anyway, it's looking like a beautiful day

Someone tell me how I feel

It's silly wrong but vivid right

Oh, kiss me like the final meal

Yeah, kiss me like we die tonight

Cause holy cow, I love your eyes

And only now I see the light

Yeah, lying with me half awake

Oh, anyway, it's looking like a beautiful day

When my face is chamois-creased

If you think I'll wink, I did

Laugh politely at repeats

Yeah, kiss me when my lips are thin

Cause holy cow, I love your eyes

And only now I see you like

Yeah, lying with me half awake

Stumbling over what to say

Well, anyway, it's looking like a beautiful day

Throw those curtains wide!

One day like this a year'd you see me right

Throw those curtains wide!

One day like this a year'd we'll sing it right

The song Home by Micky Bubble

back in 2006 when my sister was dying it was this verse that applied to the way I was feeling at the time. It was the first time I had something traumatic effect my life and it all felt so unreal.

"And I feel just like I'm living someone else's life

It's like I just stepped outside

When everything was going right"
