I've been tagged by Annamanila to list 7 songs that simply moves me. Not just with the beat, but with the lyrics as well :0)
Well, thankfully, I had the Wow Magic Songlist to help me. But with more than 2000 songs to choose from, you can imagine the hard time I had. LOL!
So here's my list of songs with my favorite part of the lyrics:
CORNER OF THE SKY
Pippin (Musical)
Rivers belong where they can ramble
Eagles belong where they can fly
I've got to be where my spirit can run free
Got to find my corner of the sky
I JUST CAN'T HELP BELIEVING
E. Presley
I just can't help believin'
When she's whispering her magic
And her tears are shining honey sweet with love
This time the girl is gonna stay
This time the girl is gonna stay
For more than just a day
For more than just a day
YOUR SONG
version of Ewan McGregor (Moulin Rouge)
If I was a sculptor, but then again, no
nor a man who makes potions in a travelling show
I know it's not much but it's the best I can do
My gift is my song and this one's for you
SOMEWHERE
A time and place for us.
Hold my hand and we're halfway there.
Hold my hand and I'll take you there
Somehow,
Some day,
Somewhere!
EVERY LITTLE THING HE DOES IS MAGIC
sung by Kevyn Lettau
I resolve to call him up
A thousand times a day
And ask him if he'll marry me
In some old fashioned way
But my silent fears have gripped me
Long before I reached the phone
Long before my tongue has stripped me
Must I always be alone
I'M NEVER GONNA SAY GOODBYE
sung by Billy Preston
Somebody lied to me,
it just can't be,
you cant be gone forever.
Somebody got it wrong,
You were gonna love me all my life
LITTLE GREEN APPLES
sung by George Morgan
And I wake up in the mornin'
With my hair down in my eyes and she says hi
And I stumble to the breakfast table
While the kids are goin' off to school goodbye
And she reaches out and takes my hand
And squeezes it and says how you feeling hon
And I look across at smilin' lips
That warm my heart and see my morning sun
so, my turn to tug and tag Scarlett, Lisa, Menalen, Lee and whoever else wants to do this fun post. enjoy!
