1. tangled up in blue - k. t. tunstall
Early one mornin' the sun was shinin' I was layin' in bed Wondrin' if she'd changed at all If her hair was still red Her folks they said our lives together Sure was gonna be rough (..)
So now I'm goin' back again I got to get to her somehow All the people we used to know They're an illusion to me now
2. boats & birds - gregory and the hawk
If you'll be my boat, I'll be your sea A depth of pure blue just to probe curiosity Ebbing and flowing and pushed by a breeze I live to make you free, I live to make you free But you can set sail to the west if you want to And past the horizon, 'til I can’t even see you Far from here where the beaches are wide Just leave me your wake to remember you by
3. bed of roses - bon jovi
When you close your eyes Know I'll be thinking about you While my mistress she calls me To stand in her spotlight again Tonight I won't be alone But you know that don't Mean I'm not lonely I've got nothing to prove For it's you that I'd die to defend I want to lay you down on a bed of roses For tonight I sleep on a bed on nails I want to be just as close as the Holy Ghost is And lay you down on bed of roses
4. soul driver - lowlands
Now no one knows which way love's wheel turns Will we hit it rich Or crash and burn Does fortune wait or just the black hand of fate This love potion's all we've got One toast before it's too late If the angels are unkind or the season is dark Or if in the end Love just falls apart Then here's to our destruction Baby let me be your soul driver
5. stranger than kindness - nick cave & the bad seeds
You caress yourself And grind my soft cold bones below Your map of desire Burned in your flesh Even a fool can come A strange lit stair And find a rope hanging there Stranger than kindness
6. don’t cry (alt. lyrics) - guns n’ roses
I thought I could live in your world As years all went by, with all the voices I've heard Something has died And when you're in need of someone, my heart won't deny you So many seem so lonely with no one left to cry to, babyDon't you cry tonight I still love you, baby Don't you cry tonight Don't you cry tonight There's a heaven above you baby And don't you cry tonight
7. is your love in vain? - bob dylan
Are you so fast that you cannot see that I must have solitude? When I am in the darkness, why do you intrude? Do you know my world, do you know my kind? Or must I explain? Will you let me be myself? Or is your love in vain?
8. always gold - radical face
We were opposites at birth I was steady as a hammer No one worried 'cause they knew just where I'd be And they said you were the crooked kind And that you'd never have no worth But you were always gold to me
9. leap of faith - michelle branch
And it's a leap of faith, When you believe there's someone out there, It's a leap of faith When you believe that someone cares, oh, And when I call out to you, Will you be right there, Right there? And I'll be waiting by the window for your smile to come through, And I'll be waiting in the darkness when I call out to you, And I'll remember when you told me, I could trust in you
10. come wander with me - brian fallon
Oh but you, you always said, "you're just too good a ship to wreck" You said, "never mind nothin', there's a summertime humming once the bandages come off" Yes, and you always believed there was some kind of diamond in me Oh but if you still burn every night in the hurt I know a place where the pain doesn't reach Come wander with me Come wander with me
11. shining in the light - jimmy page & robert plant
From this shore my memory wandered And I danced upon the sea Can I dance with you upon the sea? Oh! how I love your brown-eyed madness And your beauty was exposed Now your memory's grained into my bones
12. christmas tv - slow club
It's okay to have scars; they will make you who you are It's okay to have fears, as long as you're not scared of coming here And in the middle of the night, just call if you want to talk 'Cus you know that I want to talk too It's not bad of you to think of what might go wrong But you can't blame me for secretly hoping that I'll prove you wrong It's okay that I pray that you will miss your flight and have to stay with me another night
13. drive all night - bruce springsteen
There's machines and there's fire waiting on the edge of town They're out there for hire but baby they can't hurt us now Cause you've got, you've got, you've got, you've got my love, you've got my love Through the wind, through the rain, the snow, the wind, the rain You've got, you've got my, my love heart and soul
