If your live had a soundtrack, what song would be playing now?
For me, I would say it woulc be the song Somebody by Bonnie Mckee. :)


I sit alone, a dark theater,
Watching the people arrive hand in hand, everybody but me.
Oh...
I stay behind, watching the credits roll by.
Roll, roll, roll right by me.

Well I know, I won't cry cause there is somebody, somebody,
Somebody waiting for me out in the rain.
I won't cry, not tonight,
Cause there is somebody waiting for me.
Ohhhhh yeahhh.

I take a walk,
The streets are busy tonight,
And I'm searching for you,
Waiting to brush your shoulder.
When I'm alone,
I watch the faces roll by. Roll, roll, roll right by me.

Well I know, I won't cry cause there is somebody, somebody,
Somebody waiting for me, out in the rain.
I won't cry, not tonight,
Cause there is somebody waiting for me.

How many words will go unspoken?
Ohh.
'Til I hear knocking on my door?
I need some talking the nights I spent heartbroken.
But tonight I know,
I won't cry no more.
Ohhhh.

I lie awake.
I left the porch light on.
I hope it helps you to find your way.

Outside
I hear the thunder roll by. Roll, roll, roll right by me.

I know, I won't cry cause there is somebody, somebody,
Somebody waiting for me, out in the rain.
Not gonna cry tonight
No
Cause there is somebody waiting for me.
Not gonna cry tonight
No no no no no no no
Oh yeah
Oh ohhhh, not gonna cry,
Not tonight
Cause there is somebody waiting for me.
I stay behind watching the credits roll by.
Roll, roll, roll right by me.

2. Eve Of Destruction


Eve Of Destruction
by Barry McGuire
The eastern world, it is explodin’.
Violence flarin’, bullets loadin’
You’re old enough to kill, but not for votin’
You don’t believe in war, but what’s that gun you’re totin’
And even the Jordan River has bodies floatin’

But you tell me
Over and over and over again, my friend
Ah, you don’t believe
We’re on the eve
of destruction.

The rest at:

9. Violent Femmes "Promise"
Y'know that I want your lovin'
But my logic tells me that it ain't never gonna happen
And then my defenses say I didn't want it anyway
But you know sometimes I'm a liar
Could you ever want me to love you
Could you ever want me to care
Disregard my nervousness please ignore my vacant stares
'Cause just what I've been through
Is nothing like where I'm going to
Give me some sign to pursue a promise
And your unhappi-ness is only a guess
