B Side Songs
Here are some of the songs as promised, there will be more soon!
LIFE AND TIMES
(Instrumental, heavy on the bass)
MAY LIGHTNING STRIKE
A taste that seemed to linger
Just like honey on my lips
It's all that I remember
When I think of that first kiss
Entangled with desire
For her hedonistic ways
I struggle to remember
That caution always pays
May lightning strike me down
For no saint could stand his ground against her
May lightning strike me down
May lightning...... strike me down
Captured by charisma
That you really could not miss
I stumbled and I faltered
On the edge of that abyss (Marnie to the rescue again!)
How she seemed to soothe me
Like intoxicating wine
Submission to her wishes
She knew would come with time
May lightning strike me down
For no saint could stand his ground against her
May lightning strike me down
May lightning.... strike me down
"Sail on" is what she said
She believed that things should change
Sail on is what she did
I never understood her ways
"Sail on" is what she said
With every hope that love she'd find
Sail on is what she did
With every chance she'd left behind
May lightning strike me down
For no saint could stand his ground against her
May lightning strike me down
For no saint could stand his ground against her
(Chorus to fade)
This is what Josep and I came up with after listening to the records we have. Any other interpretations are welcome!
Thank you for all your help, Josep! :o)
The below 3 are from Josep, he says that the lyrics may not all be right,
but I am sure they are great! Thanks! :o)
STAY - Breathe
Here we are
A moment away from what has gone before
All I've seen will never fade in any way
Tell me (tell me)
Is this what I should do?
Tell me (tell me)
For this will guide me through
BRIDGE:
Can't you tell by now?
Can't you tell by now just what you mean to me?
CHORUS:
Stay for just a moment more, oh, oh o-o-oh
Stay (stay) for just a moment more, oh, oh o-o-oh
Now I know we're in too deep
Caught by our own design (Thanks, Marnie!)
I can't deny I should give this time
Tell me (tell me)
It's so unclear to me
Tell me (tell me)
For only you can see
BRIDGE
CHORUS
I've tried so hard to give this everything
So near, so far, I‚ll never be this way again
Why don't you stay?
Why don't you stay?
Why don't you stay?
Why don't you stay?
BRIDGE
CHORUS TO FADE
-----
IN ALL HONESTY - Breathe
Always here to move
Always near to heart
Shall we take no heed?
Shall we stay apart?
I feel I've given far too long to realise
You tell yourself there's nothing wrong
Don't close your eyes
BRIDGE:
I can't believe that you saw no danger
When face to face we were never more than strangers
CHORUS:
How in all honesty could you walk away?
Will there be a price to pay?
How in all honesty could you walk away?
Although I gave my word to you
No tie remains
Should I let go off these dreams?
What can I gain?
BRIDGE
CHORUS
Where it all began
Where it all fell through
All the reasons why
Only clear to you
CHORUS
-----
TAKE A LITTLE TIME - Breathe
What's this feeling I can't explain at all?
I need to know
I need to be so sure
All this time nothing's been clear for me
I need to know
I need to be so sure
CHORUS:
Take a little time
Seen it all before
Take a little time
Oh, oh, oh, oh (x 2)
Only something meaning this much to me
Could keep me down
Make me feel this way
There are no reasons
Reasons to carry on
Is this what I came here for?
Is this what I came here for?
CHORUS
Hmm, this time I feel
Hmm, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
CHORUS
I never understood just what you meant to me
Now I know so well it's there for us to see
Is this what I came here for?
Is this what I came here for?
Take a little time (Take a little time)
Seen it all before (Seen it all before)
Take a little time (Take a little time)
Oh, oh, oh, oh
I never understood
I need to be so sure
Take a little time
Take a little time
So take a little time
