BlueRose Posted July 17, 2003 Share Posted July 17, 2003 I can't just pick one! I do this all the time. I'll share just one for now. This song is great and works SO well, except for the part about being 25. Hurt Before Music & Lyrics: Andrea Corr Transcript: www.corrsonline.com She's a girl in a world, she's moving as fast as she goes Loves her mum and her dad, the only secure that she knows But at night, she's alone, she's dreaming of somebody new Her someone for to hold, she's praying the dream will come true Show me the way - show me, show me how Help me be brave - for love Show me the way - show me, tell me how What do you say There's a pain in her heart, she's trying so hard to unwind Makes her cry in the night, when visions so real make her blind Wants to break through the the fear Erasing the scars from within Start a new kind of being - she's down and she's praying again Show me the way - show me, show me how Help me be brave - for love Show me the way - show me, tell me how What do you say You see she's - Turning the key, unlocking the door Embracing the rollercoaster world Stepping outside, with body and soul Taking whatever future holds Turning the key, unlocking the door Embracing the rollercoaster world Take it in stride, you're just twenty-five And you know we've all been hurt before [Violin solo] You see she's - Turning the key, unlocking the door Embracing the rollercoaster world Stepping outside, with body and soul Taking whatever future holds Turning the key, unlocking the door Embracing the rollercoaster world Take it in stride, you're just twenty-five And you know we've all been hurt before Yeah we've all been hurt before So you're not alone..., no... You're not alone... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TempleofVesarius Posted July 17, 2003 Share Posted July 17, 2003 Send the Pain Below Chevelle I like having hurt, So send the pain below where I need it, You used to beg me to take care of things, And smile at the thought of me failing. But long before, having hurt, I'd send the pain below, I'd send the pain below. Much like suffocating, Much like suffocating, Much like suffocating, I'd send the pain below... Much like suffocating, I'd send the pain below... You used to run me away, All while laughing. Then cry about the fact, 'til I returned. But long before, having hurt, I'd send the pain below, I'd send the pain below. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joyful Posted July 17, 2003 Author Share Posted July 17, 2003 These are my two life defining songs right now which can probably tell you about where I am in my life. Both songs are by Switchfoot. The first one is just saying life is scaring: everyone's looking at you and you screw up a lot, but I dare you to try, to move like those things aren't even there. The second song, which is also sung by many moore but I like switchfoot much better, is saying that from the beginning of when God created you, He put a song inside of you. You have to find that song it live it to the fullest. I'm always asking myself what's my drummer's beat? What's my melody? What are my verses? Dare you to move Welcome to the planet Welcome to existence Everyone's here Everyone's here Everybody's watching you now Everybody waits for you now What happens next What happens next I dare you to move I dare you to move I dare you to lift yourself up off the floor I dare you to move I dare you to move Like today never happened Today never happened before Welcome to the fallout Welcome to resistance The tension is here Tension is here Between who you are and who you could be Between how it is and how it should be I dare you to move I dare you to move I dare you to lift yourself up off the floor I dare you to move I dare you to move Like today never happened Today never happened Maybe redemption has stories to tell Maybe forgiveness is right where you fell Where can you run to escape from yourself? Where you gonna go? Where you gonna go? Salvation is here I dare you to move I dare you to move I dare you to lift yourself up off the floor I dare you to move I dare you to move Like today never happened Today never happened Today never happened Today never happened before Only Hope There's a song that's inside of my soul It's the one that I've tried to write over and over again I'm awake in the infinite cold But you sing to me over and over and over again So I lay my head back down And I lift my hands and pray to be only yours I pray to be only Yours I know now you're my only hope Sing to me of the song of the stars Of your galaxy dancing and laughing and laughing again When you feel like my dreams are so far Sing to me of the plans that you have for me over again And I lay my head back down And I lift my hands and pray to be only yours I pray to be only yours I know now you're my only hope I give you my apathy I'm giving you all of me I want your symphony Singing in all that I am At the top of my lungs I'm giving it back And I lay my head back down And I lift my hands and pray to be only yours I pray to be only yours I pray to be only yours I know now you're my only hope So there you go!

MORight2Life Posted July 18, 2003 Share Posted July 18, 2003 (edited) Hey there, Joyful! I love the "Walk to Remember" Soundtrack, too! *chuckles* Our World Youth Day-bound van last year listened to it the entire way from St. Louis to Toronto and back! B) OK, well BESIDES the best song ever written, "Michelle," by the Beatles in 1965 off their "Rubber Soul" Album.... I just returned from a Steubenville Conference (St. Louis/ Midwest in Springfield, Missouri), and the one song that really stuck out to me was "Enough." While I was singing, I stopped in the middle of the chorus and looked around at the other 2,000-and-something people, and it was almost like God was hitting me upside the head, and asking: "Michelle, My daughter- are you listening to what you are saying to Me? Am I really 'enough' for you right now in your life? What have you been putting before Me?" Enough Words and Music by Chris Tomlin and Louie Giglio VERSE 1: You are my supply My breath of life Still more amesome than I know You are my reward Worth living for Still more amesome than I know CHORUS: All of You is more than enough for All of me for every thirst and every need You satisfy me with Your love And all I have in You is more than enough VERSE 2: You’re my sacrifice Of greatest price Still more amesome than I know You’re my coming King You are everything Still more amesome than I know BRIDGE: More than all I want More than all I need You are more than enough for me More than all I know More than all I can see You are more than enough ©2002 worshiptogether.com Songs / sixsteps Music (Admin. by EMI Christian Music Publishing) All rights reserved. International copyright secured. Used by permission. CCLI #3599479 If you would like to hear the song, CLICK HERE!. Once the page opens, look to the right side, and there will be a purple box that says "Top Ten" on it. This week, it is number 2. Click on the little sign that looks like this---> (Personally, I right click on the sign, then select "Open in new window."...It's easier, I think. ...It worked for me, and I use Microsoft Media Player...not sure about Real Player... ) Sidenote: You may have to turn up your volume. On my computer, I couldn't hear it until I turned up my volume, so be careful! Also, "Void" by Matt Maher, has made an impact in my life. I can't find the lyrics, but just watch the video, and it's POWERFUL, man! If you have Microsoft Media Player, CLICK HERE! It's all about your "God-shaped hole" in your heart, and how some people try to fill it with attention, cars, pricey dates, "worldly happiness," etc... And in the end, you realize that God is the only one that can fill your "Void." (Can you tell I'm in love with this song?! It goes along the same theme as "Enough," so it's all good!) Matt Maher is an Amazing Grammy-Nominated Catholic Singer/Songwriter/Musician, and an amazing man of God!!! ... Just a second...let me find one of our pictures. (This is one of my home-made Senior Pictures) I'll "attach" it to this post...*praying that it shows up* (This one was taken at a Notre Dame Conference this past month... ... I know some of y'all were there! ) I just wanted to say that this is an amesome thread, and I'm excited to learn the other songs that y'all are in love with! Be God's! -Michelle EDITED: Sorry, had to convert my picture of Matt and me and then attach it. Please excuse the shine on my face-- *laughing* I wasn't wearing any makeup whatsoever. (Hey, it was a retreat! You're not supposted to focus on yourself! ) Edited July 18, 2003 by MORight2Life Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GodsGrace Posted July 18, 2003 Share Posted July 18, 2003 hmm, there's sooo many things or parts of songs that are my life. "ENough" is a good one!!, umm... I think "Worlds Apart" from Jars of Clay is something definatly descibes my life... WORLDS APART i am the only one to blame for this somehow it all adds up the same soaring on the wings of selfish pride i flew too high and like icarus i collide with a world i try so hard to leave behind to rid myself of all but love to give and die to turn away and not become another nail to pierce the skin of one who loves more deeply than the oceans more abundant than the tears of a world embracing every heartache can i be the one to sacrifice or grip the spear and watch the blood and water flow to love you - take my world apart to need you - i am on my knees to love you - take my world apart to need you - broken on my knees all said and done i stand alone amongst remains of a life i should not own it takes all i am to believe in the mercy that covers me did you really have to die for me all i am for all you are because what i need and what i believe are worlds apart i look beyond the empty cross forgetting what my life has cost and wipe away the crimson stains and dull the nails that still remain more and more i need you now i owe you more each passing hour the battle between grace and pride i gave up not so long ago so steal my heart and take the pain and wash the feet and cleanse my pride take the selfish, take the weak and all the things i cannot hide take the beauty, take my tears the sin-soaked heart and make it yours take my world all apart take it now, take it now and serve the ones that I despise speak the words i can't deny watch the world i used to love fall to dust and thrown away i look beyond the empty cross forgetting what my life has cost so wipe away the crimson stains and dull the nails that still remain so steal my heart and take the pain take the selfish, take the weak and all the things i cannot hide take the beauty, take my tears take my world apart, take my world apart i pray, i pray, i pray take my world apart Written by Jars of Clay Copyright 1995 BridgeBuilding Music (BMI)/ Pogostick Music (BMI). All rights reserved. also..."How Beautiful" from Twila Paris, where she says "How Beautiful, is the radiant bride, who waits for her groom, with his light i her eyes. How Beautiful, when humble hearts give, the fruit of pure lives, so that others may live." I only say that is me b/c I can't wait until I get married, it's the most important thing to me. & I have everything planned out, all I need is the groom & his part of the wedding party!!... Also...."I Can Only Imagine" from Mercy Me I Can Only Imagine by Bart Millard from "Almost There" I can only imagine What it will be like When I walk by Your side I can only imagine What my eyes will see When Your face is before me I can only imagine Surrounded by Your glory, what will my heart feel Will I dance for you Jesus, or in awe of You be still Will I stand in Your presence, or to my knees will I fall Will I sing hallelujah, will I be able to speak at all I can only imagine I can only imagine When that day comes And I find myself standing in the Son I can only imagine When all I will do Is forever, forever worship You I can only imagine repeat chorus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlondewithaBrain Posted July 19, 2003 Share Posted July 19, 2003 One of my fav. songs as a kid..and still... Save the Best for Last Vanessa Williams Sometimes the snow comes down in June Sometimes the sun goes 'round the moon I see the passion in your eyes Sometimes it's all a big surprise Cause there was a time when all I did was wish, You'd tell me this was love It's not the way I hoped or how I planned But somehow it's enough And now we're standing face to face Isn't this world a crazy place? Just when I thought a chance had passed You go and save the best for last All of the nights you came to me When some silly girl had set you free You wondered how you'd make it through I wondered what was wrong with you Cause how could you give your love to someone else And share your dreams with me Sometimes of everything you're looking for It's the one thing you can't see But now we're standing face to face Isn't this world a crazy place? Just when I thought a chance had passed You go and save the best for last Sometimes of everything you're looking for It's the one thing you can't see (instrumental) Sometimes the snow comes down in June Sometimes the sun goes 'round the moon Just when I thought a chance had passed You go and save the best for last You went and saved the best for last I also LOVE Piano Man by Billy Joel..but I'll spare ya the lyrics... Here's another by my FAV. singer/ artist: Because You Loved Me Celine Dion For all those times you stood by me For all the truth that you made me see For all the joy you brought to my life For all the wrong that you made right For every dream you made come true For all the love i found in you I'll be forever thankful baby You're the one who held me up Never let me fall You're the one who saw me through through it all You were my strength when i was weak You were my voice when i couldn't speak You were my eyes when i couldn't see You saw the best there was in me Lifted me up when i couldn't reach You gave me faith 'coz you believed I'm everything i am Because you loved me You gave me wings and made me fly You touched my hand i could touch the sky I lost my faith, you gave it back to me You said no star was out of reach You stood by me and i stood tall I had your love i had it all I'm grateful for each day you gave me Maybe i don't know that much But i know this much is true I was blessed because i was loved by you You were my strength when i was weak You were my voice when i couldn't speak You were my eyes when i couldn't see You saw the best there was in me Lifted me up when i couldn't reach You gave me faith 'coz you believed I'm everything i am Because you loved me You were always there for me The tender wind that carried me A light in the dark shining your love into my life You've been my inspiration Through the lies you were the truth My world is a better place because of you You were my strength when i was weak You were my voice when i couldn't speak You were my eyes when i couldn't see You saw the best there was in me Lifted me up when i couldn't reach You gave me faith 'coz you believed I'm everything i am Because you loved me You were my strength when i was weak You were my voice when i couldn't speak You were my eyes when i couldn't see You saw the best there was in me Lifted me up when i couldn't reach You gave me faith 'coz you believed I'm everything i am Because you loved me I'm everything i am Because you loved me Sry for the long post....Enjoy!
