| Christina Perri – A Thousand Years Lyrics | 12 years ago |
|
Wedding Song. The first part ... "Watching you stand alone" ... your fiance is waiting at the alter. You look into their eyes and see their love radiating from their face. Suddenly nothing else matters but standing by their side. "One Step Closer" That feeling of joy and fear all rolled into one as you walk down that aisle toward your future. Tradition demands you walk slowly, but every step feels like an eternity and at this point it's taking everything you are not to run to them and fall into their arms. "I will not let anything take away what's standing in front of me" This is from the one who was waiting's perspective now. You are standing together now, holding hands. Time stands still. You're afraid, but you feel you've lived your whole life for this moment and you won't let that fear get in your way. You won't let anything keep you apart again. When two people fall so deeply in love that they want to spend their lives together, it really feels like they've always known each other, always been in love, and always will be. Such a beautiful song. This should definitely be added to the top 10 wedding songs of all time. Also, I have to say, even though I fully believe it is a wedding song, it really does work as a lullaby. My Mom always told me that after you have children, many love songs will suddenly feel like they were written especially for them, and she was so right. |

| Adele – Tired Lyrics | 13 years ago |

hold my hand while you cut me down it had only just begun but now it's over now and your in the heat of moments with your heart playing up cold I'm between the middle watching hastiness unfold on my eyes you were smiling in the spotlight dancing with the night when I fell off your mind I'm tired of trying your teasing ain't enough fed up of biding your time when I don't get nothing back and for what and for what and for what when I don't get nothing back Oi, I'm tired where'd you go when you stayed behind I looked up and inside down and outside only to find a double taking punching heartache laughing at my smile I get closer you obviously prefer her I'm tired of trying your teasing ain't enough fed up of biding your time when I don't get nothing back and for what and for what and for what when I don't get nothing back Oi, I'm tired of trying your teasing ain't enough fed up of biding your time when I don't get nothing back and for what and for what and for what when I don't get nothing back oi, I'm tired never mind said your open arms I couldn't help the leap that tripped me back into them even though I'm tired of trying your teasing ain't enough fed up of biding your time when I don't get nothing back and for what and for what and for what when I don't get nothing back oi, I'm tired of trying your teasing ain't enough fed up of biding your time when I don't get nothing back and for what and for what and for what when I don't get nothing back oi, I'm tired |

| Queen – Bohemian Rhapsody Lyrics | 13 years ago |

I don't care how many lyrics sites out there say the lyrics are "bismillah" I will never believe those are the lyrics unless I heard them from a Queen band member with my own ears. It just doesn't make any sense. If you watch the video it's set in a coutroom. There are men in white wigs. They are saying "It's THE LAW!" It's the Law! We will not let you go! Let him go! |

| I'm sorry but unless I heard Queen themselves tell me the lyrics are "bismillah" I will NEVER believe it. Watch the video, look at their lips, they are saying "IT'S THE LAW!" | |
| Neil Young – Southern Man Lyrics | 13 years ago |

First of all HyperBully nailed it. Perfect interpretation. But I also have to add all the thoughts I had as I read through the comments on this song. Ok this question goes to all of you ignorant people complaining about Southern people being stereotyped in this song. Did any of you happen to notice he says "Southern MAN" not "Southern MEN" ? I think those complaining should probably learn a bit about the English language and how it works. I would say that Neil Young probably used the singular form deliberately in order to point out the fact he IS NOT talking about ALL southern men or trying to stereotype. He is talking about one type of man that is often a product of the South. I'm sure if you look back through the comments on this song you will find one or two people who were more than willing to jump up and show themselves here as proof that the "southern man" is alive and well. My 90 year old grandfather grew up in Arkansas during segregation. He always treated me with kindness and I love him, but that doesn't change the fact that he is an IGNORANT RACIST. I grew up being nauseated by his inappropriate and hateful comments. I can tell you from experience that the "southern man" does exist. He spends his life trying to pass on his hate to his children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren with his nasty little lies. I was one of the lucky ones. My father was intelligent enough to break the cycle. At a very young age he taught me that my grandfather was a product of brainwashing and the things he said were like a mental illness and I should do my best to educate myself in how wrong they were. This song is about the crimes men like my grandfather committed against their fellow man. What makes me sick is that people act like this is ancient history. Watch some civil rights footage please. A policeman ripping an American flag from a five or six year old little boy's hand VIOLENTLY always comes to mind and brings tears to my eyes. That little boy would probably be my father's age today and I'm sure he would appreciate the sentiment in this song. As to the line "when will you pay them back?" Well, how many white families still have money today that has it's roots in slavery? How many black people are still struggling in poverty trying to overcome the deep rooted self hate that was ingrained into their minds during the days of slavery and segregation and then passed down just as the racism is? Some of the comments on this song make me lose my hope in humanity. I grew up around ignorant racist people and I managed to learn that our body is just a shell that has no influence on the content of our character. Every single person in this world has the potential to create and destroy. How is it that there are so few others out there who haven't managed to learn this truth? |
