Quotes And Lyrics
So Cruel
- U2 -
We crossed the line
Who pushed who over?
It doesn't matter to you
It matters to me
We're cut adrift
But still floating
I'm only hanging on
To watch you go down...my love
I dissappeared in you
You dissappeared from me
I gave you everything you ever wanted to have
It wasn't what you wanted
The men who love you, you hate the most
They pass right through you like a ghost
They look for you but your spirit is in the air
Baby...you're nowhere
You say in love there are no rules
Sweetheart
You're so cruel
Desperation is a tender trap
It gets you every time
You put your lips to her lips
To stop the lie
Her skin is pale like God's only dove
Screams like an angel for your love
Then she makes you watch her from above
And you need her like a drug
You say in love there are no rules
Sweetheart
You're so cruel
She wears my love
Like a see-through dress
Her lips say one thing
Her movements something else
Oh love
Like a screaming flower
Love
Dying every hour
And you don't know if it's fear or desire
Danger the drug that takes you higher?
Head of heaven
Fingers in the mire
Her heart is racing...you can't keep up
The night is bleeding like a cut
Between the horses of love and lust
We are trampled underfoot
You say in love there are no rules
Sweetheart
You're so cruel
To stay with you I'd be a fool
Sweetheart
You're so cruel
Two Princes
- The Spin Doctors -
Yeah - one, two, princes kneel before you
(That's what I said, now)
Princes, princes who adore you
(Just go ahead, now)
One has diamonds in his pockets
(And that's some bread, now)
This one, said he wants to buy you rockets
(Ain't in his head, now)
This one, he got a princely racket
(That's what I said, now)
Got some big seal upon his jacket
(Ain't in his head, now)
You marry him, you're father will condone you
(How 'bout that, now)
You marry me, your father will disown you
(He'll eat his hat, now)
Marry him or marry me,
I'm the one who loves you baby can't you see?
I ain't got no future or family tree -
But I know what a prince and lover ought to be,
I know what a prince and lover ought to be...
Said, if you want to call me baby
(Just go ahead, now)
An' if you would like to tell me maybe
(Just go ahead, now)
And if you want to buy me flowers
(Just go ahead, now)
And if you would like to talk for hours
(Just go ahead, now)

Like A Rolling Stone
- Bob Dylan -
Once upon a time
You dressed so fine
Threw the bums a dime
In your prime
Didn't you?
People call
Say beware doll
You're bound to fall
You thought they were all
Kiddin' you
You used to laugh about
Everybody that was hanging out
Now you don't talk so loud
Now you don't seem so proud
About having to be scrounging your next meal
How does it feel?
How does it feel?
To be without a home
Like a complete unknown
Like a rolling stone
Oh, you gone to the finest school
All right Miss Lonely
But you know you only used to get juiced in it
Nobody's ever taught you how to live out on the street
And now you're gonna have to get used to it
You say you never compromise
With the mystery tramp but now you realise
He's not selling any alibis
As you stare into the vacuum of his eyes
And say "Do you want to make a deal?"
How does it feel?
How does it feel?
To be on your own
With no direction home
A complete unknown
Like a rolling stone
Oh, you never turned around
To see the frowns
On the jugglers and the clowns
When they all did tricks for you
You never understood
That it ain't no good
You shouldn't let other people get your kicks for you
You used to ride on a chrome horse with your diplomat
Who carried on his shoulder a siamese cat
Ain't it hard when you discover that
He really wasn't where it's at
After he took from you everthing he could steal?
How does it feel?
How does it feel?
To ...eh... be on your own
With no direction home
Like a complete unknown
Like a rolling stone
Oh, princess on the steeple
And all the pretty people
They're all drinking
Thinking that they got it made
Exchanging all precious gifts
But you better take your diamond ring
You'd better pawn it babe
You used to be so amused
At Napolean in rags and the language that he used
Go to him now, he calls you, you can't refuse
When you ain't got nothing, you got nothing to lose
You're invisible now
You've got no secrets to conceal
How does it feel?
Oh, how does it feel?
To be on your own
With no direction home
Like a complete unknown
Like a rolling stone
I Wanna Go Back
- Eddie Money -
I was listening to the radio
I heard a song
Reminded me of long ago
Back then I thought that things were never gonna change
It used to be that I never had to feel the pain
I know now that things'll never be the same
I wanna go back
And do it all over
But I can't go back, I know
I wanna go back
Cause I'm feeling so much older
But I can't go back, I know
Oh, no
I recall hanging out on Friday night
The first slow dance
Hoping that I'd get it right
Back then I thought I'd never ever stand alone
It used to be that a lonely heart was never shown
I know now that things'll never be the same
No, no
I wanna go back
And do it all over
But I can't go back, I know
I wanna go back
Cause I'm feeling so much older
But I can't go back, I know
You can't go back
I can't go back
I know now that things'll never be the same
No, no
I said...
I wanna go back
And do it all over
But I can't go back, I know
I wanna go back
Cause I'm feeling so much older
But I can't go back, I know
I wanna go back
And do it all over
But I can't go back, I know
I wanna go back
Cause I'm feeling so much older
But I can't go back, I know
I wanna go back
And do it all over
But I can't go back, I know
I wanna go back
Cause I'm feeling so much older
But I can't go back, I know
Bore Me Home
