Lyrical Response

[WhoTom]

And it seems to me you lived your life
Like a candle in the wind
Never knowing who to cling to
When the rain set in
And I would've liked to know you
But I was just a kid
Your candle burned out long before
Your legend ever did

[Joe Ferguson forever]

I never meant to cause you any sorrow
I never meant to cause you any pain
I only wanted one time to see you laughing

I only want to see you laughing
In the purple rain

Purple rain, purple rain
Purple rain, purple rain
Purple rain, purple rain
I only want to see you bathing
In the purple rain

[PastaJoe]

I should laugh, but I cry
Because your love has passed me by
You took me by surprise
You didn't realize but I was waiting

 

Time goes slowly, but carries on
And now the best years have come and gone
You took me by surprise
I didn't realize that you were laughing

[muppy]

And then you took the words right out of my mouth
Oh it must have been while you were kissing me
You took the words right out of my mouth
Oh I swear it's true
I was just about to say I love you (love you)

[WhoTom]

You called me strong, you called me weak
But still your secrets I will keep
You took for granted all the times I never let you down
You stumbled in and bumped your head
If not for me then you'd be dead
I picked you up and put you back on solid ground

[cwater10]

And from the first time that she really done me
Oh she done me,
She done me good
I guess nobody ever really done me
Oh she done me,
She done me good

 

Don't let me down
Don't let me down
Don't let me down
Don't let me down

[muppy]

You got me runnin', goin' out of my mind
You got me thinkin' that I'm wastin' my time

Don't bring me down
No, no, no, no, no
Ooh-ooh-hoo
I'll tell you once more before I get off the floor
Don't bring me down

[SinceThe70s]

I try hard now
To do the right thing
Yet i wonder
Why i still do what's wrong
That's the way that it goes
When you're down here with the rest of us

[WhoTom]

That's the way, oh,
That's the way it ought to be,
Yeah, yeah, Mama say
That's the way it ought to stay.

[Bill from NYC]

Some say that you're sure to find
True love and peace of mind
At the end of a rainbow
There's no sign in the sky to follow
'Cause that's the way love goes
Baby, that's the way love goes

[muppy]

When you take me by the hand
Tell me I'm your lovin' man
When you give me all your love
And do it babe, the very best you can

 

That's the way, aha, aha
I like it, aha, aha
That's the way, aha, aha
I like it, aha, aha
That's the way, aha, aha
I like it, aha, aha
That's the way, aha, aha
I like it, aha, aha

[cwater10]

Put your hand in the hand of the man that stilled the water
Put your hand in the hand of the man who calmed the sea, oh yeah
You gotta take a good look at yourself, and you can look at others differently
Put your hand in the hand of the man from Galilee
Hey, put your hand in the hand of the man that stilled the water

[muppy]

Want you to hold my hand
(Hold my hand)
I'll take you to a place
Where you can be
(Hold my hand)
Anything you wanna be because
I wanna love you the best that
The best that I can

[cwater10]

Why's it so great just to wake every day
Alive and by your side
It's a mystery I guess
There's lots of things I can't find 
It's not the way that you look
But your move that catches my eye

 

Why's it so soft when the cannons 
Unload on the others? 
Why're we so loud when we say 
It won't happen to us? 
Why does my mind blow to bits 
Every time they play that song?
It's just the way that he sings
Not the words that he says, or the band 
I'm in love with this soul 
It's a meaning that I understand

[Bill from NYC]

Every morning there's a halo hangin' from the corner
Of my girlfriend's four-post bed
I know it's not mine but I'll see if I can use it
For the weekend or a one-night stand

 

Couldn't understand
How to work it out
Once again as predicted, left my broken heart open
And you ripped it out

[cwater10]

She knows that it's real
But the situation doesn't fit
I know what I feel

 

And I know that this is really
Everything it's all about
And I don't have a single doubt

 

My timing is off
But sometimes that's how it all works
Believe it or not
We don't have a choice
In matters of the heart

[PastaJoe]

Believe it or not, I'm walkin' on air
I never thought I could feel so free
Flyin' away on a wing and a prayer
Who could it be?
Believe it or not it's just me

[SinceThe70s]

Can't you hear me say, can't you hear me say
Can't you hear me say...
Free me!

[WhoTom]

Can't you hear me knockin', ahh, are you safe asleep?
Can't you hear me knockin', yeah, down the gas light street, now
Can't you hear me knockin', yeah, throw me down the keys
Alright now

[SinceThe70s]

I've been losing lots of keys lately
I don't know what that means
But maybe I'd be better off with things that can't be locked at all
