"How can love hurt so much" by the Knack - soooo true and I guess we have all been there. The best love song ever written in my opinion from the group that did "My Sharrona" in the 80s.
So your love struck Romeo's got a serenade Laying everybody low with a love song that he made Finds a streetlight, steps out of the shade Says something like, “You and me babe how about it?”
Juliet says, “Hey it's Romeo! You nearly gave me a heart attack.” He's underneath the window, she's singing, “Hey la my boyfriend's back. You shouldn't come around here singing up at people like that. Anyway whatcha gonna do about it?”
Juliet the dice was loaded from the start And I bet you exploded in my heart And I forget, I forget the movie song When you gonna realize it was just that the time was wrong? Juliet
We come up on different streets they both were streets of shame Both dirty, both mean, and the dream was just the same And I dreamed your dream for you so now your dream is real How can you look at me as if I was just another one of your deals?
You can fall for chains of silver, you can fall for chains of gold You can fall for pretty strangers and the promises they hold You promised me everything, yeah promised me thick and thin Now you just say oh Romeo yeah, you know I used to have a scene with him
Juliet when we made love you used to cry You said I love you like the stars above oh I'll love you until I die There's a place for us you know the movie song When you gonna realize it was just that the time was wrong.? Juliet
I can't do the talk like they talk on TV And I can't do a love song like the way it's meant to be I can't do everything, but I'd do anything for you I can't do anything, except be in love with you
And all I do is miss you and the way we used to be All I do is keep the beat and bad company When all I do is kiss you through the bars of a rhyme Juliet I'd do the stars with you any time
Juliet when we made love you used to cry You said I love you like the stars above I'll love you till I die There's a place for us you know the movie song When you gonna realise it was just that the time was wrong? Juliet
And a lovestruck Romeo's got a serenade Laying everybody low with a lovesong that he made Finds that streetlight steps out of the shade Says something like, ”You and me babe how about it?”
I'm a mostly a hip-hop/funk gal, so I like a lot of Al Green / Marvin Gaye / Barry White when I hit the sheets or we're gettin' into the lovey mood. "Feel Like Makin' Love" by D'Angelo is getting a lot of play at our bedside right now.
My fiancé jokes that he likes getting blowjobs to "It's a Man's Man's Man's World" by James Brown...
You and me Sittin' in the back my memory Like a honey bee Buzzin' 'round a glass of sweet Chablis Radio's on Windows rolled up And my mind's rolled down Headlights shining Like silver moons Rollin' on the ground
We made love In everyway love can be made And we made time Look like time could never fade Friday Night We both made the guitar hum Saturday made Sunday feel Like it would never come
Gonna be a long Monday Sittin' all alone on a mountain By a river that has no end Gonna be a long Monday Stuck like the tick of a clock That's come unwound - again
Soul to soul Heart to heart And cheek to cheek Come on baby Give me a kiss That'll last all week
The thought of you leavin' again Brings me down The promise of Your sweet love Brings me around
It's gonna be a long Monday Sittin' all alone on a mountain By a river that has no end It's gonna be a long Monday Stuck like the tick of a clock That's come unwound - again And again
Something in your eyes Makes me wanna lose myself Makes me wanna lose myself In your arms
There's something in your voice Makes my heart beat fast Hope this feeling lasts The rest of my life
If you knew how lonely my life has been And how low I've felt for so long If you knew how I wanted someone to come along And change my world the way you've done
Feels like home to me Feels like home to me Feels like I'm all the way back Where I come from
Feels like home to me Feels like home to me Feels like I'm all the way back Where I belong
A window breaks Down a long dark street And a siren wails in the night But that's all right 'Cause I have you here with me And I can almost see Through the dark there's light
If you knew how much this moment means to me And how long I've waited for your touch If you knew how happy you are making me Oh I never thought I'd love anyone so much
Feels like home to me Feels like home to me Feels like I'm all the way back Where I come from
Feels like home to me Feels like home to me Feels like I'm all the way back Where I belong Feels like I'm all the way back Where I belong
Walking on walking on broken glass Walking on walking on broken glass
You were the sweetest thing that I ever knew But I don't care for sugar honey if I can't have you Since you've abandoned me My whole life has crashed Won't you pick the pieces up Cause it feels just like I'm walking on broken glass
Walking on walking on broken glass Walking on walking on broken glass
The sun's still shining in big blue sky But it don't mean nothing to me Oh let the rain come down Let the wind blow through me I'm living in an empty room With all the windows smashed And I've got so little left to loose That it feels just like I'm walking on broken glass
Walking on walking on broken glass Walking on walking on broken glass
And if you're trying to cut me down You know that I might bleed Cause if you're trying to cut me down I know that you'll succeed And if you want to hurt me There's nothing left to fear Cause if you want to hurt me You're doing really well my dear
Now everyone of us was made to suffer Everyone of us was made to weep But we've been hurting one another And now the pain has cut too deep So take me from the wreckage Save me from the blast Lift me up and take me back Don't let me keep on walking I can't keep on walking on broken glass
Walking on walking on broken glass Walking on walking on broken glass
Is it all in that pretty little head of yours? What goes on in that place in the dark? Well I used to know a girl and I could have sworn that her name was Veronica
Well she used to have a carefree mind of her own and a delicate look in her eye These days I'm afraid she's not even sure if her name is Veronica
Do you suppose, that waiting hands on eyes, Veronica has gone to hide? And all the time she laughs at those who shout her name and steal her clothes Veronica Veronica
Did the days drag by? Did the favours wane? Did he roam down the town all the time? Will you wake from your dream, with a wolf at the door, reaching out for Veronica
Well it was all of sixty-five years ago When the world was the street where she lived And a young man sailed on a ship in the sea With a picture of Veronica
On the "Empress of India" And as she closed her eyes upon the world and picked upon the bones of last week's news She spoke his name out loud again
Do you suppose, that waiting hands on eyes, Veronica has gone to hide? And all the time she laughs at those who shout her name and steal her clothes Veronica Veronica
Veronica sits in her favorite chair and she sits very quiet and still And they call her a name that they never get right and if they don't then nobody else will
But she used to have a carefree mind of her own, with devilish look in her eye Saying "You can call me anything you like, but my name is Veronica"
Do you suppose, that waiting hands on eyes, Veronica has gone to hide? And all the time she laughs at those who shout her name and steal her clothes Veronica Veronica Oh ... Veronica
I got hit by a bow and arrow Got me down to the very marrow And I'm real, real gone
Real real gone I can't stand up by myself Don't you know I need your help And I'm real, real gone
Some people say You can make it on your own Oh you can make it if you try I know better now You can't stand up alone Oh baby that is why
I'm real, real gone I can't stand up by myself Don't you know I need your help You're a friend of mine And I'm real, real gone
And Sam Cooke is on the radio And the night is filled with space And your fingertips touch my face You're a friend of mine And I'm real, real gone
I'm real gone Oh Lord I got hit by a bow and arrow Got me down to the very marrow You're a friend of mine And I'm real, real gone And I'm real, real gone
I'm real gone Wilson Pickett said: "In the midnight hour, That's when my love comes tumbling down" Solomon Burke said: "If you need me, why don't you call me" James Brown said: "When you're tired of what you got, try me" Gene Chandler said: "There's a rainbow in my soul"
Unforgettable, that's what you are Unforgettable, though near or far Like a song of love that clings to me How the thought of you does things to me Never before has someone been more
Unforgettable, in every way And forevermore That's how you'll stay That's why darling it's incredible That someone so unforgettable Thinks that I am unforgettable too
No, never before has someone been more Ooh unforgettable, In every way And forevermore That's how you'll stay That's why darling it's incredible That someone so unforgettable Thinks that I am unforgettable too
Listen as the wind blows From across the great divide Voices trapped in yearning Memories trapped in time The night is my companion And solitude my guide Would I spend forever here And not be satisfied
And I would be the one To hold you down Kiss you so hard I'll take your breath away And after I'd wipe away the tears Just close your eyes dear
Through this world I've stumbled So many times betrayed Trying to find an honest word To find the truth enslaved Oh you speak to me in riddles and You speak to me in rhymes My body aches to breathe your breath Your words keep me alive
And I would be the one To hold you down Kiss you so hard I'll take your breath away And after I'd, wipe away the tears Just close your eyes dear
Into this night I wander It's morning that I dread Another day of knowing of The path I fear to tread Oh, into the sea of waking dreams I follow without pride Nothing stands between us here And I won't be denied
And I would be the one To hold you down Kiss you so hard I'll take your breath away And after I'd, wipe away the tears Just close your eyes dear
I'll hold you down Kiss you so hard I'll take your breath away And after I'd wipe away the tears Just close your eyes
You're my peace of mind in this crazy world You're everything I've tried to find Your love is a pearl You're my Mona Lisa, you're my rainbow skies And my only prayer is that you realize You'll always be beautiful in my eyes
The world will turn, and the seasons will change And all the lessons we will learn Will be beautiful and strange We'll have our fill of tears, our share of sighs My only prayer is that you realize You'll always be beautiful in my eyes
You will always be beautiful in my eyes And the passing years will show That you will always grow ever more beautiful in my eyes When there are lines upon my face from a lifetime of smiles When the time comes to embrace for one long last while We can laugh about how time really flies
We won't say goodbye cause true love never dies You'll always be beautiful in my eyes You will always be (you will always be) Beautiful in my eyes (beautiful in my eyes)
And the passing years will show that you will always grow Ever more beautiful in my eyes The passing years will show that you will always grow Ever more beautiful in my eyes
Wait a minute baby Stay with me a while Said you'd give me light But you never told me about the fire
Drowning in the sea of love Where everyone would love to drown But now it's gone It doesn't matter what for When you build your house Then call me home
And he was just like A great dark wing Within the wings of a storm I think I had met my match He was singing And undoing And undoing Oh the laces Undoing the laces
Said Sara, you're the poet in my heart Never change, never stop But now it's gone It doesn't matter what for But when you build your house Well, then call me home
Hold on, the night is coming And the starling flew for days I'd stay at home at night all the time I'd go anywhere, anywhere, anywhere Ask me and I'm there Yeah, ask me and I'm there I care
In the sea of love Where everyone would love to drown But now it's gone They say it doesn't matter anymore If you build your house Then please call me, call
Oh, Sara, you're the poet in my heart Never change, and don't you ever stop Now it's gone, no It doesn't matter anymore When you build your house I'll come by (Ah, Sara, ah) (Ah, Sara, ah) (Ah, Sara, ah)
All I ever wanted Was to know that you were dreaming There's a heartbeat And it never really died Never really died Won't you swallow your pride? All I ever wanted
She used to work in a diner Never saw a woman look finer I used to order just to watch her float across the floor She grew up in a small town Never put her roots down Daddy always kept movin so she did too
Somewhere on a desert highway She rides a Harley Davidson Her long blond hair flyin in the wind She's been runnin half her life The chrome and steel she rides Collidin with the very air she breathes The air she breathes
You know it ain't easy You got to hold on She was an unknown legend in her time Now she's dressin two kids Lookin for a magic kiss She gets the far away look in her eyes
Somewhere on a desert highway She rides a Harley Davidson Her long blond hair flyin in the wind She's been runnin half her life The chrome and steel she rides Collidin with the very air she breathes The air she breathes

Some love is just a lie of the heart The cold remains of what began with a passionate start And they may not want it to end But it will it's just a question of when I've lived long enough to have learned The closer you get to the fire the more you get burned But that won't happen to us Cause it's always been a matter of trust
I know you're an emotional girl It took a lot for you to not lose your faith in this world But I can't offer you proof But you're going to face a moment of truth It's hard when you're always afraid You just recover when another belief is betrayed So break my heart of you must It's a matter of trust
You can't go the distance With too much resistance I know you have doubts But for God's sake don't shut me out
This time you've got nothing to lose You can take it, you can leave it Whatever you choose I won't hold back anything And I'll walk a way a fool or a king Some love is just a lie of the mind It's make believe until it's only a matter of time And some might have learned to adjust But then it never was a matter of trust
I'm sure you're aware love We've both had our share of Believing too long When the whole situation was wrong
Some love is just a lie of the soul A constant battle for the ultimate state of control After you've heard lie upon lie There can hardly be a question of why Some love is just a lie of the heart The cold remains of what began with a passionate start But that can't happen to us Because it's always been a matter of trust
It was nearly summer, we sat on your roof Yeah, we smoked cigarettes and we stared at the moon And I showed you stars you never could see Babe, It couldn't been that easy to forget about me
Baby, time meant nothing, anything seemed real Yeah, you kissed like fire and you made me feel Like every word you said was meant to be No, it couldn't been that easy to forget about me
Baby even the losers get lucky sometimes Even the losers keep a little bit of pride They get lucky sometimes
Two cars park on the overpass Rocks hit the water like broken glass I shoulda known right then it was too good to last God it's such a drag when you're livin in the past
Baby even the losers get lucky sometimes Baby even the losers keep a little bit of pride They get lucky sometimes
Buckets of rain Buckets of tears Got all them buckets coming out of my ears Buckets of moonbeams in my hand You got all the love honey baby I can stand
I been meek And hard like and oak I seen pretty people disappear like smoke Friends will arrive friends will disappear If you want me honey baby I'll be here
I like your smile And your fingertips I like the way that you move your hips I like the cool way you look at me Everything about you is bringing me Misery
Little red wagon Little red bike I ain't no monkey but I know what I like I like the way you love me strong and slow I'm taking you with me honey baby When I go
Life is sad Life is a bust All ya can do is do what you must You do what you must do and ya do it well I'll do it for you honey baby can't you tell?

She don't like her eggs all runny She thinks crossin her legs is funny She looks down her nose at money She gets it on like the easter bunny She's my baby I'm her honey I'm never gonna let her go
He ain't got laid in a month of Sundays I caught him once and he was sniffin my undies He ain't too sharp but he gets things done Drinks his beer like it's oxygen He's my baby And I'm his honey Never gonna let him go
In spite of ourselves We'll end up a sittin on a rainbow Against all odds Honey, we're the big door prize We're gonna spite our noses Right off of our faces There won't be nothin but big old hearts Dancin in our eyes
She thinks all my jokes are corny Convict movies make her horny She likes ketchup on her scrambled eggs Swears like a sailor when shaves her legs She takes a lickin And keeps on tickin I'm never gonna let her go
He's got more balls than a big brass monkey He's a wacked out werido and a lovebug junkie Sly as a fox and crazy as a loon Payday comes and he's howlin at the moon He's my baby I don't mean maybe Never gonna let him go
In spite of ourselves We'll end up a sittin on a rainbow Against all odds Honey, we're the big door prize We're gonna spite our noses Right off of our faces There won't be nothin but big old hearts Dancin in our eyes There won't be nothin' but big old hearts Dancin in our eyes
The Heart of the Matter - by Don Henley, Dave John and Mike Campbell
I got the call today That I didn't wanna hear But I knew that it would come An old, true friend of ours Was talkin' on the phone She said you'd found someone And I thought of all the bad luck And the struggles we went through And how I lost me and you lost you What are these voices outside love's open door Make us throw off our contentment And beg for something more?
I'm learning to live without you now But I miss you sometimes The more I know, the less I understand All the things I thought I knew, I'm learning again I've been tryin to get down To the heart of the matter But my will gets weak And my thoughts seem to scatter But I think it's about forgiveness Forgiveness Even if, even if you don't love me anymore
Ah these times are so uncertain There's a yearning undefined And people filled with rage We all need a little tenderness How can love survive in such a graceless age? Ah the trust and self-assurance That lead to happiness They're the very things We kill I guess Oh pride and competition Cannot fill these empty arms And the work I put between us You know it doesn't keep me warm
I'm learning to live without you now But I miss you baby And the more I know, the less I understand All the things I thought I'd figured out I have to learn again I've been trying to get down To the heart of the matter But everything changes And my friends seem to scatter But I think it's about forgiveness Forgiveness Even if, even if you don't love me anymore
There are people in your life who've come and gone They let you down, you know they hurt your pride You better put it all behind you baby Cause life goes on If you keep carryin that anger It'll eat you up inside baby I've been trying to get down To the heart of the matter But my will gets weak And my thoughts seem to scatter But I think it's about forgiveness Forgiveness Even if, even if you don't love me
I've been tryin to get down To the heart of the matter Because the flesh will get weak And the ashes will scatter So I'm thinkin about forgiveness Forgiveness Even if, even if you don't love me Forgiveness Forgiveness Forgiveness Forgiveness Forgiveness Forgiveness Even if you don't love me anymore
Fat man sitting on a little stool Takes the money from my hand While his eyes take a walk all over you Hands me the ticket, smiles And whispers good luck Cuddle up angel Cuddle up my little dove We'll ride down baby Into this tunnel of love
I can feel the soft silk Of your blouse And them soft thrills In our little fun house Then the lights go out And it's just the three of us You me and all that stuff We're so scared of Gotta ride down baby Into this tunnel of love
There's a crazy mirror Showing us both in 5D I'm laughing at you You're laughing at me There's a room of shadows That gets so dark brother Its easy for two people To lose each other In this tunnel of love
It ought to be easy Ought to be simple enough Man meets woman And they fall in love But the house is haunted And the ride gets rough And youve got to learn To live with what You can't rise above If you want to ride on down In through this tunnel of love
