That's bizarre - I was just listening to some Depeche Mode and thinking how brilliant these lyrics are:)

You had something to hide
Should have hidden it, shouldnt you
Now youre not satisfied
With what youre being put through

Its just time to pay the price
For not listening to advice
And deciding in your youth
On the policy of truth

Things could be so different now
It used to be so civilised
You will always wonder how
It could have been if youd only lied

Its too late to change events
Its time to face the consequence
For delivering the proof
In the policy of truth

Never again
Is what you swore
The time before
Never again
Is what you swore
The time before

Now youre standing there tongue tied
Youd better learn your lesson well
Hide what you have to hide
And tell what you have to tell

Youll see your problems multiplied
If you continually decide
To faithfully pursue
The policy of truth

This one is my fave for today. It's from a song called "baby's calling" by Venice ... ...

It's hard to be heard when there's no one listening
It's hard to be strong on your own
Sometimes I cry with a heart half broken
But sometimes I fly away

Open mind for a different view

I know I said 'lines' but I have to put this one in full lol
Lyrics to Lemon Haired Ladies :


whatever you give me
i'll take as it comes
discarding self-pity
i'll manage with crumbs
i'll settle for moments
i won't ask for life
i'll not expect labels
like lover or wife

if showing affection
embarrasses you
i will not depend
and i will not pursue
for you are
younger than i
younger than i
younger than i
and i am
wiser than you



the one a.m. phone calls
you're here then you're gone
come when you need me
i won't carry on
i'll simply accept you
the way that you are
unsure and unstructured
my door is ajar

those lemon haired ladies
of twenty or so
of course you must see them
just don't let me know
don't let me know
whatever you do
for you are
younger than i
younger than i
younger than i
and i am
weaker than you



i'll give you a year
maybe two
maybe three
then what will happen?
where will i be?
you'll still be a boy
but what about me?
what about me?
what about me?

why must you treat me
with so little care
i've so much inside me
i'm aching to share
why am i constant
to someone like you?
children don't know
the meaning of "true"

those lemon haired ladies
why must you seem them?
all that i want in your eyes
is to be them
time is on their side
that's all i lack
i wish you would just
go away
no
come back
come back
go away
come back
go away

what in hell can i do?
i'm supposed to be wise
for i am
older than you
older than you

you so self-centered
the games that you play
do as you please
well you will anyway

of course you will see them
no use to pretend
for they are
younger than i
younger than i
those lemon haired ladies
and they will
win in the end.

This is another you need the whole verse for sorry lol

Unicorns and cannonballs,
Palaces and piers,
Trumpets, towers, and tenemets,
Wide oceans full of tears,
Flag, rags, ferry boats,
Scimitars and scarves,
Every precious dream and vision
Underneath the stars

Jax, yes I love that one too x

Rambling Report 11 May 2009 21:40

and this one sorry lol....

Loved I two men equally well
Though they were different as heaven and hell
One was an artist
One drove a truck
One would make love
The other would f***

Each treated me the way he knew best
One held me lightly
One bruised my breast
And I responded on two different levels
Like children reacting to angels
And devils

One was a poet who sang and read verse
One was a peasant who drank and who cursed
Before you decide who’s cruel and who’s kind
Let me explain what I felt in my heart and my mind

The artist was tender but suffered from guilt
Making him sorry the following day
And he made me feel guilty the very same way
In his bed on the following day

The other would take me and feel no remorse
He’d wake with a smile in the bed where we lay
And he made me smile in the very same way
In his bed the following day

The blow to my soul by fear and taboos
Cut deeper far than a bodily bruise
And the one who was gentle hurt me much more
Than the one who was rough and made love on the floor

What did you think of it, Rose? Is my era;)

The one who insists he was first in the line is the last to remember her name

And in the end.....the love you take is equal to the love you make.

You and I have memories longer than the road that stretches out ahead.

There are places I remember all my life though some have changed. Some for better, some forever, some are gone and some remain.
But those places had their moments, with lovers and friends I still can recall.
Some are dead and some are living. In my life I've loved them all.

I love Lennon/McCartney.

Wish I could Write a love-song

I've tried to write a love song, that shows the way I feel
But perhaps I just ain't got it, perhaps I never will
Wish that I could write down words, that I want you to see,
Wish I could write a love-song, just to you from me.

I write the words down, then change 'em all around ,'cos I ain't to sure,
they look all wrong wrong, it's just another song,
it's all bin done before and it's gotta mean much more.
Wish that I could write a love-song, to show the way I feel,
But perhaps I just ain't got it, perhaps I never will.

Rock and roll songs come easy, rock and roll songsare dead easy.
perhaps its simply that I love you more than words can say?

Is it that I feel silly when I let my feelings show
Or am I afraid to say too much, in case one day you go;
If I give in to my emotions, then I might get hurt,
If one day you run away, wiv my uncle Bert.
But I'm making fun again, trust me to make a joke, out of anything
Wish I could think of lines wish I could make up rhymes,
can't think of anything good to sing.
Wish I could write a love-song, to show the way I feel,
But I guess I just ain't got it, perhap I never will.

Rock and roll songs come easy, rock and roll songs are dead easy.

Is it simply that I love you, more than words can say?
perhaps I'll write a love-song, just for you one day
