This song makes me think of them sooo much.

Dave Matthews Band - Sleep to Dream her




I know I'll miss her later
Wish I could bend my love to hate her
Wish I could be her creator
To twist her arms now

She stares up at the stars when
The stars fell from her hair then
I bent down to collect them
And then she was gone


Oh I sleep just to dream her
I beg the night just to see her
That my only love should be her
Just to lie in her arms

Oh I came there to find out
Find out she made up her mind
My arms are all tied up
To me she was blind
This space between us
Where wingless dreams fall earless
Will you not bear me witness
With your back to me now
It seems so unnerving
Yet still somehow deserving
That she could hold my heart so tightly
And still not see me here

I know I'll miss her later
I wish I could bend my love to hate her
Wish I could be her creator
To be the light in her eyes



Also another song by Dave Matthews Band - The Space Between

You cannot quit me so quickly
Is no hope in you for me
No corner you could squeeze me
But I've got all the time for you love

The space between
The tears we cry is the laughter that keeps us coming back for more
The space between
The wicked lies we tell to keep us safe from the pain

Will I hold you again
These fickle fuddled words confuse me
Like will it rain today
We waste the hours with talking talking
These twisted games we're playing
We're strange allies with warring hearts
What a wild eyed beast you be

Look at us spinning out in the madness of a rollercoaster
You know you went off like the devil in the church
In the middle of a crowded room
All we can do my love
Is hope we don't take this ship down
The space between
Where you smile and hide
That's where you'll find me if I get to go
The space between
The bullets in our fire fight
Is where I'll be hiding waiting for you
The rain that falls splashed in your heart
Ran like sadness down the window into your room
The space between our wicked lies is
The hope to keep safe from pain
Take my hand cause we're walking out of here
Right out of here is all we need dear
The space between
What's wrong and right
Is where you'll find me hiding
Waiting for you
The space between
Your heart and mind
Is the space we'll fill with time

This is an Indonesian song. My translation is just a rough one.

Kunanti by Arwana

Katakan sayang adakah cinta untukku
Lama kunanti tak juga engkau kembali
Oh... tak tahu mengapa
Bimbang hati ini menunggu

Katakan sayang masihkah engkau yang dulu
Sekian lama kunanti kabar darimu
Oh... tak tahu mengapa
Bimbang hati ini menunggu

Setulus hati ini kuserahkan kepadamu
Sebagai tanda cinta, suciku untuk dirimu
Begitu tega engkau mempermainkan diriku
Tak tahu kini engkau dimana


Translation:

I'm Waiting by Arwana

Tell me, darling, if love is for me
I've waited so long
Yet you have not returned
Oh . . . I don't know why
My heart is so anxiously in wait

Tell me, darling, if you are still the same
I have waited so long
For news from you
Oh . . . I don't know why
My heart is so anxiously in wait

I gave my heart to you
As a sign of my love, purely for you
And you have played a terrible trick on me
I don't know where you are now

Glow Stars (By: Heather Nova)
Whatcha think?
Kiss me, Kiss me, under a glow-star sky;
If they're stuck on the ceiling I don't mind.
It's a brittle world but it's soft inside
I'll make the milky way for you, only you
For you, only you.

And I will always ride far into the night with you,
And I will take my chances, far into the night with you.
Only you, with you, only you

Love me, love me, under a glow-star sky,
It's a galaxy when we get high
And sleep to the junkies' lullabies,
I close my eyes for you, only you
You, only you.

And I will always ride far into the night with you,
And I will take my chances, far into the night with you.

I touch your face, I'm flying over fields,
I touch this moment - it's mine.
I'm an angel, I'm a parasite,
I'm a vessel - I shine.

Kiss me, kiss me, under a glow-star sky,
We'll be pushing up soil someday, sometime,
So hold me now, hold me tight,
I'll make the milky way for you, only you,
For you, only you.

And I will always ride far into the night with you,
And I will take my chances, far into the night with you.

And I will always ride, kiss me kiss me, far into the night with you,
And I will take my chances, kiss me kiss me, far into the night with you.
With you.

Two other songs by The Corrs:



Somebody for Someone

Somebody for someone
Somebody for someone
There’s a deep girl in the corner shop
Selling sugar for money in the dead of the night
And her soul’s in the sugar and her heart’s in the mud
And she’s crying with a stranger for someone to love
And she sings

Look at me – see me look at me – save me
Free me – find me, ‘cos if there’s
Somebody for someone – yeah look at me
Somebody for someone

There’s a deep boy at the corner shop
Watching sugar sell for money to the dead at night
And he sees in her an angel in the cruellest of the worlds
Hiding in the darkness
Screaming out for love – screaming out for love
And she sings

Somebody’s gonna make it right
look at me
Somebody’s gonna make it right
see me
Somebody’s gonna make it right
Look for me
Somebody’s gonna make it right
Save me
Somebody’s gonna make it right
Free me
Somebody’s gonna make it right
‘cos if there’s
Somebody for someone – yeah look at me

Somebody for someone
Somebody for someone




One Night

Long day and I’m ready – I’m waiting for your call
‘Cos I’ve made up my mind
My heart aches with a hunger and the want that you were mine
No I cannot deny

So for one night – is it alright
That I give you
My heart – my love – my heart
Just for one night
My body – my soul
Just for one night
My love – my love
For one night – one night – one night

When morning awakens me
Well I know I’ll be alone
And I feel I’ll be fine
So don’t you worry about me
I’m not empty on my own
For inside I’m alive

That for one night – it was so right
That I gave you
My heart – my love – my heart
Just for one night
My body – my soul
Just for one night
My love – I loved
For one night – one night – one night

For one night – it was so right
That I gave you
Just for one night
My body – my soul
Just for one night
My love – my love
For one night – one night – one night
One night

Thriving Ivory ~ A Better Day

I swallowed all your pain
Couldn't carry on much longer
I let you run away from me
But I still hope that you recognize

My face through all this madness
Life's suicide machine
I know everything's got an ending
But what's that mean for me?

I don't want to know anything 'bout your life
Well I guess that's all a lie
'Cause I love to hear you're peaceful
Though it tears me up inside

Night falls I cannot warn my feet
The yellow stars are crying
For this pile of energy
The reminder of just what it is

I need to feel alive
Do you remember how it feels
Remember anything at all
When sorry's not allowed

She say's I'm lonely
And she falls beneath me
But one thing's always there
That one thing's always me

And I need a better day
Something for the jealousy
With the blue sky and the taste of life
And the silence counts the days
'Til I am gone

And the ghost I leave behind me
Will remind you of a different time
When everything seemed real

As I picked up all these pieces
I'm crossing all my fingers love 'cause
Nothing's ever the same
And it's so hard just to fit it all

I'd give
Anything for another chance
On another day and another time

But for now I pray for rain
Said for now I pray for rain

And I hope these walls between us
Come tumbling down
Gonna tear these walls between us
Gonna tear them down

I can't imagine what it's like
To imagine you with anyone
Do you go to sleep
Do you dream out loud
Do you cry at nights and say
That I need a better day
Something for the jealousy
With the blue sky and the taste of life
When the silence counts the days
'Til I am gone
And the ghost I leave behind me
Will remind you of a different time
When everything seemed grey

And I need a better day
Something for the jealousy
With the blue sky and the taste of life
When the silence counts the days
'Til I am gone

And the ghost I leave behind me
Will remind you of a different time
When everything seemed grey
And I need a better day



This is an Indie band based here in Santa Barbara, and they're amazing. I totally encourage looking them up (they're at thrivingivory.com). They also have a song called Isabelle which I'm totally using for a story someday.... :wink:

Long, Long way to go by Def Leppard

You held my hand and then you slipped away
And I may never see your face again
So tell me how do to fill the emptiness inside
Without love, what is life?

And anyone who knew us both can see
We always were the better part of me
I never wanted to be this free
All this pain, does it go away?

Then every time I turn around
And you're nowhere to be found
I know I got a long, long way to go
Before I can say goodbye to you
Oh, I got a long, long way to go
Before I can say goodbye to all I ever knew
To you, to you

From memory, there is no hiding place
Turn on the TV and I see you there
In every crowd there's always someone with your face
Everywhere, trying not to care

Then every time I turn around
And you're nowhere to be found
I know I got a long, long way to go
Before I can say goodbye to you
Oh, I got a long, long way to go
Before I can say goodbye to all I ever knew

To you, I wish you everythin'
And all the best that life can bring
I only hope you think of me sometimes, oh
And even though I feel the pain
I know that I will love again
The time will come, oh, and I'll move on

I got a long, long way to go
Before I can say goodbye to you
Oh, I got a long, long way to go, got a long way to go
Before I can say goodbye, before I say goodbye
To all I ever knew, to all I ever knew
I got a long, I got a long, long way to go, long way to go
Before I can say, before I say, goodbye to you
Say goodbye, say goodbye
Oh, I got a long, long way to go
Before I can say goodbye to all I ever knew
Girl, I wish you the best I know, oh and all of the rest, to you
I got a long, long way to go
Before I can say goodbye to you
