song of the moment - so easily

song of the moment
so easily
kathryn calder





windows of black kick in
i've got my light within on
to keep out those haunters
those midnight awandering songs

i can remember your face
when you said to me
how can you,
how can you so easily fold
how can you so easily fold

you swing me around
i can never say no to you,
no no no
i'm not the only one
i know that's just what you do

i can remember your face
when you said to me
how are you,
how are you so easily fooled
how are you so easily fooled

storm has subsided
i'm only half back inside
side, side
i can't erase it
the light rays are fitting your eyes
eyes, eyes

i can remember the place
where you said to me
how can you,
how can you so easily go
how can you so easily go

song of the moment - secret

song of the moment
secret
the pierces




got a secret
can you keep it?
swear this one you'll save
better lock it in your pocket
taking this one to the grave
if i show you then i know you won't tell what i said
cuz two can keep a secret if one of them is dead

why do you smile like you've been told a secret?
now you're telling lies cuz you have sworn to keep it
but no one keeps a secret
no one keeps a secret

why when do our darkest deeds do we tell?
they burn in our brains, become a living hell
cuz everybody tells
everybody tells

got a secret
can you keep it?
swear this one you'll save
better lock it in your pocket
taking this one to the grave
if i show you then i know you won't tell what i said
cuz two can keep a secret if one of them is dead

look into my eyes, now you're getting sleepy
are you hypnotized by secrets that you're keeping?
i know what you're keeping
i know what you're keeping

got a secret
can you keep it?
swear this one you'll save
better lock it in your pocket
taking this one to the grave
if i show you then i know you won't tell what i said
cuz two can keep a secret if one of them is dead

allison?
yes, catherine?
i have something i want to tell you but you have to promise never to tell anyone.
i promise.
do you swear on your life?
i swear on my life.

you swore you'd never tell
you swore you'd never tell
you swore you'd never tell
you swore you'd never tell

got a secret
can you keep it?
swear this one you'll save
better lock it in your pocket
taking this one to the grave
if i show you then i know you won't tell what i said
cuz two can keep a secret if one of them is dead

got a secret
can you keep it?
swear this one you'll save
better lock it in your pocket
taking this one to the grave
if i show you then i know you won't tell what i said
cuz two can keep a secret if one of them is dead

got a secret
can you keep it?
swear this one you'll save
better lock it in your pocket
taking this one to the grave
if i show you then i know you won't tell what i said
cuz two can keep a secret if one of them is dead

yes, two can keep a secret if one of them is dead
yes, two can keep a secret if one of us is dead

song of the moment - so long

song of the moment
so long
keri latimer





this ship has sailed
this flight has felt its last caress against the sky
its last lap against the shoreline

left to myself
what levels of disgrace have i embraced
did i just take whatever was given to me

so long
so long

this could have run
whatever way we chased it
corners have a way
of knowing what lies deep within you

every time a chapel bell
rings out a chime
i feel it well
but not the way it means

so long
so long

this ship has sailed
this flight has felt its last caress against the sky
its last lap against the shoreline

It was surprisingly difficult to find this song.  I heard a couple lines at the end of an episode of Warehouse 13 and had to track it down.
I love the internet.
(I love coffee more)

song of the moment - waiting for my real life to begin

song of the moment
waiting for my real life to begin
colin hay




any minute now
my ship is coming in
i'll keep checking the horizon
and i'll stand on the bow
and feel the waves come crashing
come crashing down, down, down on me

and you say, be still my love
open up your heart
let the light shine in
don't you understand
i already have a plan
i'm waiting for my real life to begin

when i woke today
suddenly nothing happened
but in my dreams
i slew the dragon
and down this beaten path
up this cobbled lane
i'm walking in my old footsteps
once again

and you say, just be here now
forget about the past
your mask is wearing thin
just let me throw one more dice
i know that i can win
i'm waiting for my real life to begin

any minute now
my ship is coming in
i'll keep checking the horizon
and i'll check my machine
there's sure to be that call
it's gonna happen soon, soon, oh so very soon
it's just that times are lean

and you say, be still my love
open up your heart
let the light shine in
don't you understand
i already have a plan
i'm waiting for my real life to begin

on a clear day
i can see
see a very long way
on a clear day
i can see…
see a very long way

My robe smells like turpentine.  What the fuck is that about?



let me know if the links don't work

so i can give a stern talking to, or maybe even fix them
(depends on how much coffee i've had)
