Superstar and more.
Edited on Tue Aug-02-05 02:18 AM by Crazy Guggenheim
Long ago and oh so far away
I fell in love with you before the second show
Your guitar, it sounds so sweet and clear
But you’re not really here
It’s just the radio

Don’t you remember you told me you loved me baby
You said you’d be coming back this way again baby
Baby, baby, baby, baby, oh, baby, I love you I really do


Loneliness is a such a sad affair
And I can hardly wait to be with you again
What to say to make you come again
Come back to me again
And play your sad guitar

Don’t you remember you told me you loved me baby
You said you’d be coming back this way again baby
Baby, baby, baby, baby, oh, baby, I love you I really do

1. "Just Another Day"
Morning alone
When you come home
I breath a little faster
Every time we’re together
It’d never be the same
If you’re not here
How can you stay away, away so long.

Why can’t we stay together
Give me a reason
Give me a reason.

Chorus
I, I don’t wanna say it
I don’t wanna find another way
Make it trough the day without you
I, I can’t resist
Try to find exactly what I missed
It’s just another day without you
It’s just another day oh

Making the time
Find the right lines
To make you stay forever
What do I have to tell you

I’m just trying to hold on to something
(trying to hold on to something good)
Oh give us a chance to make it.
To make it no no no

Don’t wanna hold on to never
I’m not that strong
I’m not that strong.

I, I don’t wanna say it
I don’t wanna find another way
Make it trough the day without you
I, I can’t resist
Trying to find exactly what I missed
It’s just another day without you.

Why can’t you stay forever
Just give me a reason
Give me a reason.

Chorus repeats

2. Dirty Vegas: Days Go By
http://www.dirtyvegas.com/webclip.html

You are still a whisper on my lips
A feeling at my fingertips
That’s pulling at my skin

You leave me when I’m at my worst
Like a feeling as if I’ve been cursed
From the bitter cold within

Days go by
And still I think of you
Days when I couldn’t live my life without you
Without you

You are still a whisper on my lips
A feeling at my fingertips
That’s pulling at my skin

Days go by
And still I think of you
Days when I couldn’t live my life without you
Without you

5. One of the best versions ever! When I saw, "Saw" they advertised
"High Tension" with that song. We thought, hey that might be cool, since they used the Sonic Youth version and all. But they didn't use it in the movie. I was kinda mad.

4. Con te partiro - Time to Say Goodbye
Quando sono solo
Sogno all’orizzonte
E mancan le parole
Si lo so che non c’? luce
In una stanza
Quando manca il sole
Se non ci sei tu con me, con me.
Su le finestre
Mostra a tutti il mio cuore
Che hai acceso
Chiudi dentro me
La luce che
Hai incontrato per strada

Time to say goodbye
Paesi che non ho mai
Veduto e vissuto con te
Adesso si li vivro.
Con te partiro
Su navi per mari
Che io lo so
No no non esistono piu
It’s time to say goodbye.

Quando sei lontana
Sogno all’orizzonte
E mancan le parole
E io si lo so
Che sei con me con me
Tu mia luna tu sei qui con me
Mio sole tu sei qui con me
Con me con me con me

Time to say goodbye
Paesi che non ho mai
Veduto e vissuto con te
Adesso si li vivro.
Con te partiro
Su navi per mari
Che io lo so
No no non esistono piu
Con te io li rivivro.
Con te partiro
Su navi per mari
Che io lo so
No no non esistono piu
Con te io li rivivro.
Con te partiro
Io con te.

Time to say goodbye
----------------------

When I’m alone
I dream on the horizon
And words fail;
Yes, I know there is no light
In a room
Where the sun is not there
If you are not with me.
At the windows
Show everyone my heart
Which you set alight;
Enclose within me
The light you
Encountered on the street.

Time to say goodbye,
To countries I never
Saw and shared with you,
Now, yes, I shall experience them,
I’ll go with you
On ships across seas
Which, I know,
No, no, exist no longer;
With you I shall experience them.

When you are far away
I dream on the horizon
And words fail,
And yes, I know
That you are with me;
You, my moon, are here with me,
My sun, you are here with me.
With me, with me, with me,

Time to say goodbye,
To countries I never
Saw and shared with you,
Now, yes, I shall experience them,
I’ll go with you
On ships across seas
Which, I know,
No, no, exist no longer;
With you I shall re-experience them.
I’ll go with you
On ships across seas
Which, I know,
No, no, exist no longer;
With you I shall re-experience them.
I’ll go with you,
I with you.

6. Cause I only have eyes for you
My love must be a kind of blind love
I can’t see anyone but you

Are the stars out tonight?
I don’t know if it’s cloudy or bright
Cause I only have eyes for you dear

The moon may be high
But I can’t see a thing in the sky
Cause I only have eyes for you

I don’t know if we’re in a garden
Or in a crowded avenue

You are here so am i
Maybe millions of people go by
But they all disappear from view

And I only have eyes for you

7. Piano in the Dark by Brenda Russell
Edited on Tue Aug-02-05 03:32 AM by Crazy Guggenheim
Piano In The Dark
Brenda Russell

When I find myself watchin' the time
I never think about all the funny things you said
I feel like it's dead
Where is it leading me now
I turn around in the still of the room
Knowin' this is when I'm gonna make my move
Can't wait any longer
And I'm feeling stronger but oh

Just as I walk (just a little more time) to the door
I can feel your emotion yeah it's pullin' me back
(Just a little more time) back to love you

(CHORUS)
Oh no caught up in the middle
I cry just a little when I think of lettin' go
Oh no gave up on the riddle
I cry just a little when he plays piano in the dark

He holds me close like a thief of the heart
He plays a melody born to tear me all apart
The silence is broken
And no words are spoken but oh

Just as I walk (just a little more time) to the door
I can feel your emotion yeah it's pullin' me back
(Just a little more time) back to love you

(REPEAT CHORUS)

Oh the silence is broken
No words are spoken but oh

Just as I walk (just a little more time) to the door
I can feel your emotion (oh baby) oh baby hold me back
(Just a little more time) back to love you

Oh no caught up in the middle
I cry just a little when I think of lettin' go
Oh no gave up on the riddle
I cry just a little ooh I cry I cry I know

8. My dear Crazy Guggenheim!
All these are love songs, and they are so very melancholy...but so beautiful...some of them I know the melodies to, and I found myself humming them to myself...I'm no singer, but I can hear the songs in my mind's ear..very faintly...

Thank you for posting all of these...they're lovely...

:loveya:
