Poetry In Song (All Genres) (band, Doors, money, wedding)

[DOUBLE H]

Take another sip my love and see what you will see
A fleet of golden galleons on a crystal sea.
Are you sitting comfortably?
As Merlin casts his spell?

Ride along the winds of time and see where we have been
The glorious age of Camelot when Guinevere was Queen.
It all unfolds before your eyes
As Merlin casts a spell.

The seven wonders of the world he'll lay before your feet
In far off lands, on distant shores, so many friends to meet.
Are you sitting comfortably?
Let Merlin cast his spell.

[ExPit]

Tonight I'll sing my songs again
I'll play the game and pretend.
But all my words come back to me in shades of mediocrity
like emptiness in harmony, I need someone to comfort me
homeward bound, I wish I was, homeward bound.
Home, where my thoughts escape me
home, where my music's playing
home, where my love lies waiting...
silently for me

2nd to none
unbelievably jaded at an early age, cloaked in excellence. by now should be the stone statue she sang about in the garden.

[RareWonder]

It reads like a fairytale
And that’s what it was
Young man in his prime
Young girl from the cross

The most perfect of strangers
And then the night closed in
And the holy ground took care of everything

Now she was a fine one
And he was a handsome man
One look was enough
And away they ran

They spend many happy hours
And then the night closed in
And the holy ground took care of everything

And I recall the promise they made
With a faith I can but admire
That she’d be the one he adored
And he’d be her hearts desire

And the holy ground took care of everything
I remember the loving time
And nothing else really counts

...

Look into my eyes my love and see ... all the lovely things you are to me
How a wistful little star was far too high ... a teardrop kissed your lips and so did I
Now when I remember Spring ... and all the joy that it can bring
I will be remembering ... the shadow of your smile


YouTube - Tony Bennet & Juanes - Shadow of Your Smile


Light up your face with gladness ... hide every trace of sadness
Although a tear may be ever so near ... that's the time you must keep on trying
Smile ... what's the use of cryin?
You'll find that life is still worthwhile ... if you'll just smile

All are so breath-taking beautiful above...
Thank you! ... I'll add...

We skipped a light fandango,
Turned cartwheels 'cross the floor.
I was feeling kind of seasick,
But the crowd called out for more.
The room was humming harder,
As the ceiling flew away.
When we called out for another drink,
The waiter brought a tray.

YouTube - Procol Harum- "A Whiter Shade of Pale" with Lyrics

....She said there is no reason,
And the truth is plain to see
That I wandered through my playing cards,
And would not let her be
One of sixteen vestal virgins
Who were leaving for the coast.
And although my eyes were open,
They might just as well have been closed.

And so it was later,
As the miller told his tale,
That her face at first just ghostly,
Turned a whiter shade of pale...

I may not always love you
But long as there are stars above you
You never need to doubt it
Ill make you so sure about it

God only knows what Id be without you

If you should ever leave me
Though life would still go on believe me
The world could show nothing to me
So what good would living do me

[DOUBLE H]

We're living in a land of make believe
And trying not to let it show
Maybe in that land of make believe
Heartaches can turn into joy

We're breathing in the smoke of high and low
We're taking up a lot of room
Somewhere in the dark and silent night
Our prayer will be heard, make it soon

So fly little bird, up into the clear blue sky
And carry the word
Love's the only reason why, why

[DontH8Me]

They dedicate their lives
To running all of his
He tries to please them all
This bitter man he is

Throughout his life the same
He's battled constantly
This fight he cannot win
A tired man they see no longer cares
The old man then prepares
To die regretfully
That old man here is me

What I've felt
What I've known
Never shined through in what I've shown
Never be
Never see
Won't see what might have been

What I've felt
What I've known
Never shined through in what I've shown
Never free
Never me
So I dub thee unforgiven

There's nothing you can do that can't be done.
Nothing you can sing that can't be sung.
Nothing you can say but you can learn how to play the game.
It's easy.
There's nothing you can make that can't be made.
No one you can save that can't be saved.
Nothing you can do but you can learn how to be in time.
It's easy.
All you need is love.
