Describe it with a song lyric

Hi Marti....

These lyrics are taken from " Elsewhere" by the brilliant Sarah McLachlan.....and dedicated to every girl who is desperate to let their secret out or tell someone.....

Oh, the quiet child awaits the day

When she can break free

The mold that clings like desperation

Mother, can't you see I've got to live my life

The way I feel is right for me?

Might not be right for you

But it's right for me, oh

I believe this is heaven to no one else but me

And I'll defend it long as I can be

Left here to linger in silence if I choose to

Would you try to understand it?

I would like to linger here in silence if I choose to

Would you understand it? Would you try?

- well, there's a first time for everything. I've just found it on youtube. It's beautiful. Thanks, Grace

Marti, you're welcome....she is such a lyricist

....and had always been so special to me through thick and thin

Why am I not surprised that Grace would instantly have a reply? 😘

Beautiful lyrics, though. Love Sarah McLachlan.

Much love,
Raquel

We got the afternoon
You got this room for two
One thing I've left to do
Discover me
Discovering you
One mile to every inch of
Your skin like porcelain
One pair of candy lips and
Your bubblegum tongue
And if you want love
We'll make it
Swim in a deep sea
Of blankets
Take all your big plans
And break 'em
This is bound to be a while
Your body is a wonderland
Your body is a wonder, I'll use my hands
Your body is a wonderland
Something 'bout the way the hair falls in your face
I love the shape you take when crawling towards the pillowcase
You tell me where to go and
Though I might leave to find it
I'll never let your head hit the bed
Without my hand behind it
You want love?
We'll make it
Swim in a deep sea
Of blankets
Take all your big plans
And break 'em
This is bound to be a while
Your body is a wonderland
Your body is a wonder, I'll use my hands
Your body is a wonderland
(I'll never speak again, again
I'll use my hands)
Damn, baby
You frustrate me
I know you're mine, all mine, all mine
But you look so good it hurts sometimes
Your body is a wonderland (I'll never speak again, again)
Your body is a wonder, I'll use my hands
Your body is a wonderland (I'll never speak again, again)
Your body is a wonderland (I'll use my hands)

Thanks Raquel,

Another nice choice.

P.S.He was a bit late to the party, but he has every right to be called a member of the dead via Dead and Company. So how can I not like him?

Just one line describes the conflict inside I think a lot of us go through;

There's someone in my head and it's not me.

Elvis Costello - Watching The Detectives

"She's filing her nails while they're dragging the lake."

Be safe. Love and Peace.

Marti, you dont make it easy.  This is outside your 1 lyric 1 song.  Dear Prudence??  But that is too obvious. Dp wont you come out and play, DP greet the brand new day.

Slade perhaps, How does it feel.

Cause many years from now there

will be new tomorrow's

And still some sorrows

How does it feel?   Do you know know know whats its like to be searching in your own time

All your attempting , experimenting, all on the climb.

Do you know know know what it's  like

to be searching and suddenly find

All your illusion, all your confusion, all left behind.

With honorable mention to Manfred Mann, Martha's Madman.  In the pool of time she thought she knew it. But someone thru a stone into it. Which breaks up the surface and it's making her nervous,   Hugs Marti. Dead and company is Tuesday night!

Thanks Pru,

That Slade track is a great one -hard to think it's from the band that also sang "Cum on feel the noize".

And it goes without saying "Dear Prudence" deserves to be in the mix. 😉

(Enjoy the show! I've been hammering D and C on youtube just lately. Still hard to fault jerry mark II. )
