Over songteksten gesproken.
Ik heb een periode gehad (en soms nog steeds) dat ik altijd op zoek was naar prachtige songteksten. Ik heb er een paar die tot mijn favorieten behoren. En waarvan de liedjes ook schitterend zijn. Ze zijn van heeeeeel grote steun voor me.
Eels- Flower
Turn the ugly light off God
Wanna feel the night
Everyday it shines down on me
Don't you think that I see
Don't you think that I see
What it's all about
Hard to look the other way
While the world passes me by
And everyone is trying to bum me out
It's a pretty big world God
And I am awful small
Everyday they rain down on me
Flower in a hail storm
Flower in a hail storm
Living for the drought
I can throw it back again
But then I play their game
Everyone is trying to bum me out
When I came into this world they slapped me
And everyday since then I'm slapped again
Tomorrow's kid, and unsightly coward,
You see I know I'm gonna win
Turn the ugly light off God
Don't wanna see my face
Every day it will betray me
Don't you think that I know
Don't you think that I know
What they're talking about
If they step on me tonight
They're gonna pay someday
Everyone is trying to bum me out
Roxette- Little Girl
Once upon a time there was a little girl
Once she was mine
In my heart the only one
I wonder where you are
I know you're somewhere in me
I can see your smile when I close my eyes
Oh, little girl
Where did you go, little girl
I miss you so
I remember when she was mine
Once upon a time there was a little voice
Singing loud and clear
In my heart the only one
Once upon a times there was so many dreams
Once they were mine
Where did you go, little girl
I miss you so
I remember when she was mine
K sK's Choice- Shadowman
Any time tomorrow I will lie and say I'm fine
I'll say yes when I mean no
And any time tomorrow
The sun will cease to shine
There's a shadowman who told me so
Any time tomorrow the rain will play a part
Of a play I used to know
Like no other
Used to know it all by heart
But a shadowman inside has let it go
Oh no, let go of my hand
Oh no, not now I'm down, my friend
You came to me anew
Or was it me who came to you
Shadowman
Any time tomorrow a part of me will die
And a new one will be born
Any time tomorrow
I'll get sick of asking why
Sick of all the darkness I have worn
Any time tomorrow
I will try to do what's right
Making sense of all I can
Any time tomorrow
I'll pretend to see the light
I just might
Shadowman
Oh here's the sun again
Isn't it appealing to recline
Get blinded and to go into the light again
Doesn't it make you sad
To see so much love denied
See nothing but a shadowman inside
Chorus
Oh, if you're coming down to rescue me
Now would be perfect
Please, if you're coming down to rescue me
Now would be perfect
Snowy
