Lyrics Worth a Date?

In a blatant cry for help to boost my spirits ... and since music is such an effective form of communication with my heart ... I'm posing an application to date me, of sorts ...

I'm asking readers - men and women alike - to leave a comment with the song lyrics they'd play for me in their version of a standing outside my window Say Anything moment. Or perhaps the lyrics they'd play mid-relationship as a reminder to me. Maybe just some sweet and touching words.

I'm constantly hearing lyrics that I wish were words said by someone that mattered ... so here's your chance to make a sad girl smile ...

1 Trouble me, disturb me with all your cares and you worries. Trouble me on the days when you feel spent. Why let your shoulders bend underneath this burden when my back is sturdy and strong? Trouble me. Speak to me, don't mislead me, the calm I feel means a storm is swelling; there's no telling where it starts or how it ends. Speak to me, why are you building this thick brick wall to defend me when your silence is my greatest fear? Why let your shoulders bend underneath this burden when my back is sturdy and strong? Speak to me. Let me have a look inside these eyes while I'm learning. Please don't hide them just because of tears. Let me send you off to sleep with a There, there, now stop your turning and tossing. Let me know where the hurt is and how to heal. Spare me? Don't spare me anything troubling. Trouble me, disturb me with all your cares and you worries. Speak to me and let our words build a shelter from the storm. Lastly, let me know what I can mend. There's more, honestly, than my sweet friend, you can see. Trust is what I'm offering if you trouble me.

2 A hard knock A cold clock Ticking off my time A long look But no luck Couldn't seem to find Or unwind Into peace of mind While I was trying A quick glance A big chance My heart beat like a drum I saw you And I knew Chances just don't come Round again Not like this First a laugh Then a kiss And I'm free in you I've got no worries on my mind I know what to do That's to treat you right And love you kind Thank you ever on my mind Love is just like breathing When it's true And I'm free in you The lost time And self pride Are my big mistakes A clear voice A bad choice Sounding like an ache In my day Not too bad But too real To go away But now I'm free in you I've got no worries on my mind I know what to do That's to treat you right And love you kind Thank you ever on my mind Love is just like breathing When it's true And I'm free in you And I don't know How you show Such gentle disregard For the ugly in me That I see That for so long I took so hard (I took so hard) And I truly believe (I truly believe) That you see the best in me (That you see the best in me) I'm in love We all love And that thought Sets me free Free in you Got no worries on my mind I know what to do That's to treat you right And love you kind Thank you ever on my mind Love is just like breathing When it's true And I'm free in you Yes I'm free in you

4 She's a broken lady, waiting to be mended Like a potter would mend a broken vase A broken lady, waiting to be mended And have what's left of the pieces put back in place Her love is like a fortress around a man she would have died for Taking care to take of all he needed But the lady's fortress slowly turned into a prison And the warning signs he gave she never heeded She vowed every morning that what god joined together No one else in the world could pull apart And then the walls came tumbling to the ground And her world came crashing down around her heart She's a broken lady, waiting to be mended Like a potter would mend a broken vase A broken lady, waiting to be mended And have what's left of the pieces put back in place She's a broken lady, waiting to be mended Like a potter would mend a broken vase A broken lady, waiting to be mended And have what's left of the pieces put back in place Pretty song ... li'l mournful, but with just the right mix of sadness and hope. Sounds better than it reads, and the Gatlin Brothers did it proper. http://www.lyricality.com/g/1c4d679/

6 oh, and what woman, would not want to hear this... We got the afternoon You got this room for two One thing I've left to do Discover me Discovering you One mile to every inch of Your skin like porcelain One pair of candy lips and Your bubblegum tongue And if you want love We'll make it Swim in a deep sea Of blankets Take all your big plans And break 'em This is bound to be awhile Your body is a wonderland Your body is a wonder (I'll use my hands) Your body is a wonderland Something 'bout the way the hair falls in your face I love the shape you take when crawling towards the pillowcase You tell me where to go and Though I might leave to find it I'll never let your head hit the bed Without my hand behind it You want love? We'll make it Swim in a deep sea Of blankets Take all your big plans And break 'em This is bound to be awhile Your body is a wonderland Your body is a wonder (I'll use my hands) Your body is a wonderland Damn baby You frustrate me I know you're mine all mine all mine But you look so good it hurts sometimes Your body is a wonderland Your body is a wonder (I'll use my hands) Your body is a wonderland Your body is a wonderland I'm never speaking up again Now there's no reason I've got the kind of love in my hands To last all season

7 To the teller down at the bank You're just another checking account To the plumber that came today You're just another house At the airport ticket counter You're just another fare At the beauty shop at the mall Well you're just another head of hair Well that's alright, that's ok If you don't feel important, honey All I've got to say is To the world You may be just another girl But to me Baby, you are the world To the waiter at the restaurant You're just another tip To the guy at the ice cream shop You're just another dip When you can't get reservations 'Cause you don't have the clout Or you didn't get an invitation 'Cause somebody left you out That's alright, that's ok When you don't feel important honey All I've got to say is To the world You may be just another girl But to me Baby, you are the world You think you're one of millions but you're one in a million to me When you wonder if you matter, baby look into my eyes And tell me, can't you see you're everything to me That's alright, that's ok When you don't feel important honey All I've gotta say is To the world You may be just another girl But to me Baby, you are the world

8 Havin' my baby! What a lovely way of sayin'... (Ha! That's a joke! If my gf see's this I'm dead!) I suck donkey dicks at stuff like this, so just let me say: Thank you for having the forethought, ability, desire, and guts to organize the blogmeets. I'd never have met some of those folks if it weren't for you.

9 Steal a dollar from my mama's purse, buy you that skull-and-crossbones ring, You can wear it around your neck on an old piece of string. Steal a hacksaw from my daddy, I'll cut those braces off you legs, and bury them tonight out in the cornfield. ....Tom Waits

10 If I win the date, I'll take a rain check until my next life. I am an old codger now. Too old to be dating sweet young ladies like you. Anyway, I thought you would like these lyrics. The band is not around anymore but I thought this song was great in its day. So In To You by Atlanta Rhythm Section When you walked into the room There was voodoo in the vibes. I was captured by your style; But I could not catch your eyes. Now I stand here helplessly Hoping you'll get into me. I am so into you I can't think of nothing else. I am so into you I can't think of nothing else. Thinking how it's going to be Whenever you get into me. It's gonna be good, don't you know. From your head to your toe, Gonna love you all over, Over and over, I am so into you, Me into you, you into me, me into you. I am so into you I can't get to nothing else. I am so into you I can't get to nothing else. Thinking how it's going to be Whenever you get into me. C'mon baby, drivin' me crazy, I'm so into you, Love all the things you do.

11 In this cold world no matter where I go the crowds, they're all the same. To them I'm just a pebble in the sand, a face without a name. Nobody gives a hang for what I say or do But you, and in the shelter of your arms I find peace and comfort and care For I am wanted there. In this cold world, you struggle to survive and sometimes, you can fall. You'd think someone would lend a helpin hand they'd sooner see you crawl. But just when life itself seems more than I can bare... You're there and in the shelter of your arms I find strength and comfort with care. For I am wanted there. Just give me one good reason to go on living. To keep on trying For what.?.I ask you for what? If not for you and all your love, to see me through. But just when life itself seems more than I can bare You're there and in the shelter of your arms I find strength and safety in them, I rise and start again.

12 What Victor said. I'm not good with songs, but I hope you find the one that sounds perfect.

13 When the rain is blowing in your face And the whole world is on your case I could offer you a warm embrace To make you feel my love When the evening shadows and the stars appear And there is no one there to dry your tears I could hold you for a million years To make you feel my love I know you haven't made your mind up yet But I would never do you wrong I've known it from the moment that we met No doubt in my mind where you belong I'd go hungry, I'd go black and blue I'd go crawling down the avenue There's nothing that I wouldn't do To make you feel my love The storms are raging on the rollin' sea And on the highway of regret The winds of change are blowing wild and free You ain't seen nothing like me yet I could make you happy, make your dreams come true Nothing that I wouldn't do Go to the ends of the earth for you To make you feel my love

14 Come baby, find me, come baby, remind me of where I once begun. Come baby, show me, show me you know me, tell me you're the one. I could be learning, you could be yearning to see behind closed doors. But I will always be emotionally yours. Come baby, rock me, come baby, lock me into the shadows of your heart. Come baby, teach me, come baby, reach me, let the music start. I could be dreaming but I keep believing you're the one I'm livin' for. And I will always be emotionally yours. It's like my whole life never happened, When I see you, it's as if I never had a thought. I know this dream, it might be crazy, But it's the only one I've got. Come baby, shake me, come baby, take me, I would be satisfied. Come baby, hold me, come baby, help me, my arms are open wide. I could be unraveling wherever I'm traveling, even to foreign shores. But I will always be emotionally yours.

15 Since I'm married and can't afford to have you saying "yes" to me... Why Don't We Get Drunk And Screw By Jimmy Buffet I really do appreciate The fact you're sittin' here Your voice sounds so wonderful But yer face don't look too clear So bar maid bring a pitcher Another round o' brew Honey, why don't we get drunk and screw Why don't we get drunk and screw I just bought a water bed It's filled up for me and you They say you are a snow queen Honey, I don't think that's true So, why don't we get drunk and screw 'Pick it Coral Reefers, here we go...' Why don't we get drunk and screw I just bought a water bed It's filled up for me and you They say you are a snow queen Honey, I don't think that's true So, why don't we get drunk and screw Yeah, now baby I say (Lord!) Why don't we get drunk and screw

16 It's late at night and we're all alone With just the music on the radio No one's coming, no one's gonna telephone Just me and you and the lights down low And we're Slow dancing, swaying to the music Slow dancing, just me and my girl Slow dancing, swaying to the music No one else in the whole wide world Just you, girl

17 Babe i'm not the type of girl who you'd find missing you. But I have gotten involved into something that's impossible to undo. And for 8 months straight you've had me in a daze. And it's one of those great feelings that just won't go away! Baby I think this just might be love. There is so much connection and so much trust. baby this has got to be love. and if it isn't what's possibly gotten into us? When I'm with you,you take away all of my fears when i get hurt you get rid of all my tears. and there's no one out there that can make me feel this way. you are my own little world where i can go to when i just need to escape. baby baby please don't ever go away!
