Can't Get You Off My Mind

Lenny Kravitz

 

Life is just a lonely highway

I'm out here on the open road

I'm old enough to see behind me

But young enough to feel my soul

I don't wanna lose you baby

And I don't wanna be alone

Don't wanna live my days without you

But for now I've got to be without you

 

I've got a pocket full of money

And pocket full of keys that have no bounds

But then I think of lovin'

And I just can't get you off of my mind

 

Babe can't you see

That this is killing me

I don't want to push you baby

And I don't want you to be told

It's just that I can't breathe without you

Feel like I'm gonna lose control

 

I've got a pocket full of money oh yes I do

And a pocket full of keys that have no bounds

But when it comes to lovin'

I just can't get you off of my mind, yeaaah

 

Am I a fool to think that there's a little hope

Yeah yeahhhhhheee yeah

Tell me baby, yeah

What are the rules the reasons and the do's and don'ts

Yeah yeahhhhhheee yeah

Tell me baby tell me baby, yeah

What do you feel inside?

 

I've got a pocket full of money

And a pocket full of keys that have no bounds

Oh yeah

But when it comes down to lovin'

I just can't get you off of my mind, yeah

I just can't get you off of my mind, yeah.

In the Colors

Ben Harper

 

When your whole world is shaken from all the risks we have taken

Dance with me, dance with me into the colors of the dusk

 

When you have awoken from all the dreams broken

Come and dance with me, dance with me into the colors of the dusk

Dance with me in the colors of the dusk

 

The paths we're walking on, they crumble behind us

But if we leave now, they will never find us

And if this crazy world spins itself down to dust, I want to be with you in the colors

 

When you again start hoping with your arms wide open

Come on, dance with me, dance with me into the colors of the dusk

And all will be right, dancing like water with the light

Dance with me, won't you dance with me into the colors of the dusk?

They call it stormy monday

But tuesdays just as bad.

And thursdays all so sad.

Groaning the Blues

Eric Clapton (Otis Rush)

 

I'm so tired of moaning, trying to groan away my blues.

I'm so tired of moaning, trying to groan away my blues.

I keep weeping and crying every time I think of you.

I would rather die of starvation, perish out in the desert sun,

I would rather die of starvation, perish out in the desert sun,

Than to think of some other man holding you in his arms.

My heart gets so heavy, Lord I shakes down in my bones.

My heart gets so heavy, Lord I shakes down in my bones.

I can't hurt a murderer, oh Lord, but I'm forced to weep and moan.

Tea For One

Joe Bonamassa (Led Zep)

 

How come twenty four hours, baby sometimes seem to slip into days?

Oh twenty-four hours, baby sometimes seem to slip into days

A minute seems like a lifetime, baby when I feel this way

Sittin, lookin at the clock, time moves so slow

I've been watchin for the hands to move

Until I just cant look no more

How come twenty four hours, baby sometimes seems to slip into days?

A minute seems like a lifetime, baby when I feel this way.

 

To sing a song for you, I recall you used to say

Oh baby this ones for we two, which in the end is you anyway

 

How come twenty four hours, baby sometimes slip into days?

A minute seems like a lifetime, baby when I feel this way.

 

There was a time that I stood tall, in the eyes of other men

But by my own choice I left you woman, and now I cant get back again

 

How come twenty-four hours, sometimes slip into days?

A minute seems like a lifetime, baby when I feel this way

A minute seems like a lifetime

When I feel this way... I feel this way

The Story

 

I don't know

How to begin

Cause the story

Has been told before

I will sing

Along I suppose

I guess

It's just how it goes

 

And now

Those sprangs in the air

I don't go down anywhere

I guess

It's just how it goes

The stories have

All been told before

 

But if you don't char

The light

Won't hit your eye

And the moon won't rise

Before it's time

 

But if you don't char

The light

Won't hit your eye

And the moon won't rise

Before it's time

 

But I don't know how

It will end

With all those

Records playin'

I guess

It's just how it goes

The stories

Have all been told before

I guess

It's just how it goes

The stories

Have all been told before

I guess

It's just how it goes

Green Eyed Lady

Sugarloaf

 

Green-eyed lady, lovely lady

Strolling slowly towards the sun

Green-eyed lady, ocean lady

Soothing every ragin' wave that comes

Green-eyed lady, passions' lady

Dressed in love

She lives for life to be

Green-eyed lady feels life

I never see

Setting suns and lonely lovers free.

 

Green-eyed lady, wind swept lady

Rules the night, the waves, the sand

Green-eyed lady, ocean lady

Child of nature, friend of man

Green-eyed lady, passions' lady

Dressed in love

She lives for life to be

Green-eyed lady feels life I never see

Setting suns and lonely lovers free

#9 Dream

 

So long ago

Was it in a dream, was it just a dream?

I know, yes I know

Seemed so very real, it seemed so real to me

 

Took a walk down the street

Thru the heat whispered trees

I thought I could hear (hear, hear, hear)

Somebody call out my name as it started to rain

 

Two spirits dancing so strange

 

Ah! b?wakawa pouss?, pouss?

Ah! b?wakawa pouss?, pouss?

Ah! b?wakawa pouss?, pouss?

 

Dream, dream away

Magic in the air, was magic in the air?

I believe, yes I believe

More I cannot say, what more can I say?

 

On a river of sound

Thru the mirror go round, round

I thought I could feel (feel, feel, feel)

Music touching my soul, something warm, sudden cold

The spirit dance was unfolding

 

Ah! b?wakawa pouss?, pouss?

Ah! b?wakawa pouss?, pouss?

Ah! b?wakawa pouss?, pouss?

 

Ah! b?wakawa pouss?, pouss?

Ah! b?wakawa pouss?, pouss?

Ah! b?wakawa pouss?, pouss?

Ah! b?wakawa pouss?, pouss?

Ah! b?wakawa pouss?, pouss?

Ah! b?wakawa pouss?, pouss?

Ah! b?wakawa pouss?, pouss?

Ah! b?wakawa pouss?, pouss?

Thank You

Chris Cornell (Led Zep)

 

If the sun refused to shine,

I would still be loving you.

When mountains crumble to the sea,

There will still be you and me.

Kind woman, I give you my all,

Kind woman, nothing more.

Little drops of rain whisper of the pain,

Tears of loves lost in the days gone by.

My love is strong, with you there is no wrong,

Together we shall go until we die.

My, my, my,

An inspiration is what you are to me,

Inspiration, look see.

And so today, my world it smiles,

Your hand in mine, we walk the miles,

Thanks to you it will be done,

For you to me are the only one.

Happiness, no more be sad,

Happiness....I'm glad.

If the sun refused to shine,

I would still be loving you.

When mountains crumble to the sea,

There will still be you and me.

Secret

Maroon 5

 

Watch the sunrise

Say your goodbyes

Off we go

Some conversation

No contemplation

Hit the road

 

Car overheats

Jump out of my seat

On the side of the highway baby

Our road is long

Your hold is strong

Please don't ever let go oh no

 

I know I don't know you

But I want you so bad

Everyone has a secret

But can they keep it

Oh no they can't

 

Driving fast now

Don't think I know how to go slow

Where you at now

I feel around

There you are

 

Cool these engines

Calm these jets

I ask you how hot can it get

And as you wipe of beads of sweat

Slowly you say "I'm not there yet!"

 

I know I don't know you

but I want you so bad

everyone has a secret

oh, can they keep it?

oh no, they can't

 

I know I don't know you

but I want you so bad

everyone has a secret

oh, but can they keep it?

oh no, they can't

Drive

Incubus

 

Sometimes, I feel the fear of uncertainty stinging clear

And I can't help but ask myself how much I let the fear

Take the wheel and steer

It's driven me before

And it seems to have a vague, haunting mass appeal

But lately I'm beginning to find that I

Should be the one behind the wheel

 

Whatever tomorrow brings, I'll be there

With open arms and open eyes yeah

 

Whatever tomorrow brings, I'll be there

I'll be there

 

So if I decide to waiver my chance to be one of the hive

Will I choose water over wine and hold my own and drive?

It's driven me before

And it seems to be the way that everyone else gets around

But lately I'm beginning to find that

When I drive myself my light is found

 

Whatever tomorrow brings, I'll be there

With open arms and open eyes yeah

 

Whatever tomorrow brings, I'll be there

I'll be there

 

Would you choose water over wine

Hold the wheel and drive

 

Whatever tomorrow brings, I'll be there

With open arms and open eyes yeah

 

Whatever tomorrow brings, I'll be there

I'll be there

Don't Take Me Alive

Steely Dan

 

Agents of the law

Luckless pedestrian

I know youre out there

With rage in your eyes and your megaphones

Saying all is forgiven

Mad dog surrender

How can I answer

A man of my mind can do anything

 

I'm a bookkeepers son

I dont want to shoot no one

Well I crossed my old man back in oregon

Dont take me alive

Got a case of dynamite

I could hold out here all night

Yes I crossed my old man back in oregon

Dont take me alive

 

Can you hear the evil crowd

The lies and the laughter

I hear my inside

The mechanized hum of another world

Where no sun is shining

No red light flashing

Here in this darkness

I know what I've done

I know all at once who I am

 

I'm a bookkeepers son

I dont want to shoot no one

Well I crossed my old man back in oregon

Dont take me alive

Got a case of dynamite

I could hold out here all night

Yes I crossed my old man back in oregon

Dont take me alive

While My Guitar Gently Weeps

The Beatles

 

I look at you all see the love there thats sleeping

While my guitar gently weeps

I look at the floor and I see it needs sweeping

Still my guitar gently weeps

I dont know why nobody told you how to unfold your love

I dont know how someone controlled you

They bought and sold you.

 

I look at the world and I notice its turning

While my guitar gently weeps

With every mistake we must surely be learning

Still my guitar gently weeps

I dont know how you were diverted

You were perverted too

I dont know how you were inverted

No one alerted you.

 

I look at you all see the love there thats sleeping

While my guitar gently weeps

Look at you all . . .

Still my guitar gently weeps.

 

 

I heart George Harrison SOOOO much!!!!

Suppose to be

Jack Johnson

 

Maybe it's up with the stars

Maybe it's under the sea

Maybe it's not very far

Maybe this is how it's supposed to be

This is how it's supposed to be

Maybe it's trapped in a jar

Something we've already seen

Maybe it's nowhere at all

Maybe this is how it's supposed to be

This is how it's supposed to be

Looking forward as we rewind

Looking back is a trap sometimes

Being here is so easy to do

If you want to

If you want to

If you want to

If you want to

If you want to

If you want to

If you want to

If you want to

If you want to

If you want to

If you want to

If you want to

If You Could Only See

Tonic

 

If you could only see the way she loves me

Then maybe you would understand

Why I feel this way about our love

And what I must do

If you could only see how blue her eyes can be when she says

When she says she loves me

 

Well you got your reasons

And you got your lies

And you got your manipulations

They cut me down to size

 

Sayin you love but you dont

You give your love but you wont

 

If you could only see the way she loves me

Then maybe you would understand

Why I feel this way about our love

And what I must do

If you could only see how blue her eyes can be when she says

When she says she loves me

 

Seems the road less traveled

Shows happiness unraveled

And you got to take a little dirt

To keep what you love

Thats what you gotta do

 

Sayin you love but you dont

You give your love but you wont

You're stretching out your arms to something that's just not there

Sayin you love where you stand

Give your heart when you can

 

If you could only see the way she loves me

Then maybe you would understand

Why I feel this way about our love

And what I must do

If you could only see how blue her eyes can be when she says

When she says she loves me

 

Sayin you love but you dont

You give your love but you wont

Sayin you love where you stand

Give your heart when you can

(Hey play the guitars)<

(I love to hear the guitars play)<<

(Oh I love to sing, I love to sing) <<< this is me!:D

 

She was dancing when I seen her, in a Mexican cantina

In a neighbourhood they call La Zona Roja (hahahaha)

She had a child's smile, but she told me, in a while

It would take a lot of gold to get to know her (Oh)

 

Acapulco Goldie, donde did you go

You said you'd always hold me

But you run away with me Acapulco gold

 

(Oh that's a terrible thing you did)

I knew there's no-one cuter, then she said she was a puta

I said "What does puta mean?" Hmm and so she told me... (Oh no)

Then we went to meet a dealer, we smoked and drank tequila

Then the lights went out and I guess that's where she rolled me (just like)

 

Acapulco Goldie, por que did you go?

You said you'd always hold me

But you vamos away with me Acapulco gold

Yes, you run away with me Acapulco gold

 

(Oh Goldie)

(How can you do these things to me?)

(Where's my gun?)

(Who took my gun?)

(On no, I don't feel good)

(I don't feel good babe)

(Start the guitars)

Dog and Butterfly

Heart

 

There I was with the old man

Stranded again so off I'd ran

A young world crashing around me

No possibilities of getting what I need

He looked at me and smiled

Said no, no, no, no, no child

 

See the dog and butterfly

up in the air he like to fly

dog and butterfly

Below she had to try

she roll back down to the warm soft ground laughing

She dont know why, she dont know why

Dog and butterfly

 

Well I stumbled upon your secret place

Safe in the trees you had tears on your face

Wrestling with your desires frozen strangers

Stealing your fires

the message hit my mind

Only words that I could find

See the dog and butterfly

Up in the air he like to fly

Dog and butterfly below she had to try

She roll back down to the warm soft ground

Laughing to the sky, up to the sky

Dog and butterfly

 

Were getting older the worlds getting colder

For the life of me I dont know the reason why

Maybe its livin making us give in

Hearts rolling in taken back on the tide

Were balanced together ocean upon the sky

 

Another night in this strange town

Moonlight holding me light as down

Voice of confusion inside of me

No begging to go back where I'm free

Feels like I'm through

Then the old mans words are true

See the dog and butterfly

Up in the air he like to fly

Dog and butterfly, below she had to try

She roll back down to the warm soft

Ground with a little tear in her eye

She had to try, she had to try

Dog and butterfly

Wish You Were here

Incubus

 

I dig my toes into the sand

The ocean looks like a thousand diamonds strewn

across a blue blanket

I lean against the wind, pretend that I am weightless

And in this moment I am happy

Happy

 

I wish you were here

I wish you were here

I wish you were here

I wish you were... here

 

I lay my head onto the sand

The sky resembles a back-lit canopy with holes punched in it

I'm counting UFO's, I signal them with my lighter

And in this moment I am happy

Happy

 

I wish you were here

I wish you were here

I wish you were... here

Wish you were here

 

The world's a rollercoaster

And I am not strapped in

Maybe I should hold with care

But my hands are busy in the air

Sayin

 

I wish you were here

I wish you were...

I wish you were here

I wish you were here

I wish you were... here

Wish you were here

Sunday Morning

Maroon 5

 

Sunday morning rain is falling

Steal some covers share some skin

Clouds are shrouding us in moments unforgettable

You twist to fit the mold that I am in

But things just get so crazy living life gets hard to do

And I would gladly hit the road get up and go if I knew

That someday it would lead me back to you

That someday it would lead me back to you

 

That may be all I need

In darkness she is all I see

Come and rest your bones with me

Driving slow on Sunday morning

And I never want to leave

 

Fingers trace your every outline

Paint a picture with my hands

Back and forth we sway like branches in a storm

Change the weather still together when it ends

 

That may be all I need

In darkness she is all I see

Come and rest your bones with me

Driving slow on Sunday morning

And I never want to leave

 

But things just get so crazy living life gets hard to do

Sunday morning rain is falling and I'm calling out to you

Singing someday it'll bring me back to you

Find a way to bring myself back home to you

 

And you may not know

That may be all I need

In darkness she is all I see

Come and rest your bones with me

Driving slow on Sunday morning

Copperhead Road

 

Steve Earle

 

Well my name's John Lee Pettimore

Same as my daddy and his daddy before

You hardly ever saw Grandaddy down here

He only came to town about twice a year

He'd buy a hundred pounds of yeast and some copper line

Everybody knew that he made moonshine

Now the revenue man wanted Grandaddy bad

He headed up the holler with everything he had

It's before my time but I've been told

He never came back from Copperhead Road

 

Now Daddy ran the whiskey in a big black Dodge

Bought it at an auction at the Mason's Lodge

Johnson County Sheriff painted on the side

Just shot a coat of primer then he looked inside

Well him and my uncle tore that engine down

I still remember that rumblin' sound

[ Earle Steve Lyrics are found on Lyrics at SongLyrics.com ]

Well the sheriff came around in the middle of the night

Heard mama cryin', knew something wasn't right

He was headed down to Knoxville with the weekly load

You could smell the whiskey burnin' down Copperhead Road

 

I volunteered for the Army on my birthday

They draft the white trash first,'round here anyway

I done two tours of duty in Vietnam

And I came home with a brand new plan

I take the seed from Columbia and Mexico

I plant it up the holler down Copperhead Road

Well the D.E.A.'s got a chopper in the air

I wake up screaming like I'm back over there

I learned a thing or two from ol' Charlie don't you know

You better stay away from Copperhead Road

 

Copperhead Road

Copperhead Road

Copperhead Road
