Song Lyrics

Cool topic!

One of the current dilemmas in my life can be summed up in the contrast between lyrics from two songs with the same title: "Higher Love" by 80s British pop star Steve Winwood, and "Higher Love" by 90s British Neo/Alternative-Soul band Raw Stylus:

Steve W: "I could light the night up with my soul on fire. I could make the sun shine from pure desire. Let me feel that love come over me. Let me feel how strong it could be."

Raw Stylus: "I don't need a higher Love, 'cause what we got is gettin' higher. I don't need a higher love, 'cause what we got is good enough."

I love these lyrics!

Thinking of a master plan
cause ain´t nothing but sweat inside my hand
so I dig into my pocket ,all my money is spent
so I dig deeper but still coming up with lint
so I start my mission, leave my residence
thinking how could I get some dead presidents . . .


There is no passion to be found playing small, in settling for a life
that is less than the one you are capable of living. - Mandela

dontchange...

Lately you've been questioning if I still see you the same way
Cause through these trying years we gonna both physically change
Now don't you know you'll always be the most beautiful women I know
So let me reassure you darling that my feelings are truly unconditional, see

(Chorus)
I'll love you when your hair turns grey girl
I still want you if you gained a little weight, yeah
The way I feel for you will always be the same
Just as long as your love don't change (no)
I was meant for you and you we're meant for me, yeah
And I make sure that I'll be everything you need, Yeah
Girl the way we are is how it's gonna be
Just as long as your love don't change

Cause I'm not impressed more or less by them girls on the TV or magazines
Cause honestly I believe that your beauty is way more then skin deep
It's everything about you makes me feel I have the greatest gift in the world
And even when you get on my last nerve
I couldn't see myself being with another girl

another favorite (and i couldn't pick a favorite part--it's the whole song that gets me)

Song:"The Truth"
Artist:India.Arie
C.D.:"Voyage To India"


Spoken : Let me tell you why I love him

Chorus:
Cause he is the truth
Said he is so real
And I love the way that he makes me feel
And if I am a reflection of him then I must be fly because
His light it shines so bright I wouldn't lie


Verse 1:
I remember the very first day that I saw him
I found myself immediately intrigued by him
It's almost like I knew this man from another life
Like back then maybe I was his husband maybe he was my wife
And even,things I don't like about him are fine with me
Cause it's not hard for me to understand him cause he's so much like me
And it's truly my pleasure to share his company
And I know that it's God's gift to breathe
The air he breathes

Chorus:
Cause he is the truth
Said he is so real
And I love the way that he makes me feel
And if I am a reflection if him then I must be fly because
His light it shines so bright I wouldn't lie (no)


Verse 2:
How can the same man that makes me so mad
Do you know what he did-(Spoken)
Turn right around and kiss me so soft
Girl do you know what he did-(Spoken)
If he ever left me I wouldn't even be sad no
Cause there's a blessin' in every lesson
And I'm glad that I knew him at all

Chrous:
Cause he is the truth
Said he is so real
And I love the way that he makes me feel
And if I am a reflection of him then I must be fly because
His light it shines so bright


Bridge, Break-down, & Ending :
I love the way he speaks
I love the way he thinks
I love the way that he treats his mama
I love that gap in between his teeth
I love him in every way that a woman can love a man
From personal to universal but most of all
It's unconditional

You know what I'm talking about-(Spoken)
That's the way I feel
And I always will-(Spoken)

There ain't no substitute for the truth
Either it is or isn't
(Cause he is the truth)
You see the truth it needs no proof
Either it is or it isn't
(Cause he is the truth)
Now you know the truth by the way it feels
And if I am a reflection of him then I must be fly
Because he is, yes he is
I wonder does he know -Echoes

interesting that the 2 artists i chose lyrics from are dating each other...i wonder what their pillow talk is like??
