here are the lyrics to some really great love songs. Belongs to the oldies type, but not really very old. Less focus on beats and more focus on lovely melody and lyrics. You might want to dedicate these songs to your Loved ones on Valentine's Day. Gold 90 FM (at least that's the station which plays these songs). or Class 95.
Hope you like it too.
Sometimes when We Touch
Barry Mannilow, Dan Hill
You ask me if I love you
And I choke on my reply
I’d rather hurt you honestly
Than mislead you with a lie
And who am I to judge you
In what you say or do
I’m only just beginning
To see the real you
And sometimes when we touch
The honesty’s too much
And I have to close my eyes and hide
I want to hold you till I die
Till we both break down and cry
I want to hold you till the fear in me subsides
Romance and all it’s strategy
Leaves me battling with my pride
But through all the insecurity
Some tenderness survives
I’m just another writer
Still trapped within my truth
A hesitant prize fighter
Still trapped within my youth
And sometimes when we touch
The honesty’s too much
And I have to close my eyes and hide
I want to hold you till I die
Till we both break down and cry
I want to hold you till the fear in me subsides
At times I’d like to break you
And drive you to your knees
At times I’d like to break through
And hold you endlessly
At times I understand you
And I know how hard you try
I watched while love commands you
And I’ve watched love pass you by
At times I think we’re drifters
Still searching for a friend
A brother or a sister
But then the passion flares again
And sometimes when we touch
The honesty’s too much
And I have to close my eyes and hide
I want to hold ya till I die
Till we both break down and cry
I want to hold you till the fear in me subsides
Subsides
The Lady In Red
Chris de Burgh
I've never seen you looking so lovely as you did tonight,
I've never seen you shine so bright,
I've never seen so many men ask you if you wanted to dance,
They're looking for a little romance, given half a chance,
And I have never seen that dress you're wearing,
Or the highlights in your hair that catch your eyes,
I have been blind;
The lady in red is dancing with me, cheek to cheek,
There's nobody here, it's just you and me,
It's where I want to be,
But I hardly know this beauty by my side,
I'll never forget the way you look tonight;
I've never seen you looking so gorgeous as you did tonight,
I've never seen you shine so bright, you were amazing,
I've never seen so many people want to be there by your side,
And when you turned to me and smiled, it took my breath away,
And I have never had such a feeling,
Such a feeling of complete and utter love, as I do tonight;
The lady in red is dancing with me, cheek to cheek,
There's nobody here, it's just you and me,
It's where I want to be,
But I hardly know this beauty by my side,
I'll never forget the way you look tonight;
I never will forget the way you look tonight...
The lady in red, the lady in red,
The lady in red, my lady in red,
I love you...
Purest Of Pain (A Puro Dolor)
Son By Four
I’m sorry didn’t meant to call you but I couldn’t fight it
I guess I was weak...I couldn’t even hide it
And so I surrender, just to hear your voice (just to hear your voice)
I know there may be times I said I’m gonna live without you
Maybe someone else is standing there beside you
But there’s something baby that you need to know
That deep inside me, I feel like I’m dying (I feel like...)
I have to see you, it’s all that I’m asking...
Chorus:
(Baby)...give me back my fantasy
The courage that I need to learn
The air that I breathe
(Living without you)My world’s become so ending
The days are so cold and lonely
Each night I taste...the purest of pain
Uuuhhh...
I wish I could tell you I’m feeling better everyday
That I didn’t hurt when you walked away
But to tell you the truth I can’t find my way
That deep inside me, I feel like I’m dying (I feel like)
I have to see you, it’s all that I’m asking...
Baby....
Chorus:
(Baby)...give me back my fantasy
The courage that I need to learn
The air that I breathe
(Living without you)My world’s become so ending
The days are so cold and lonely
Each night I taste...the purest of pain
Nanana....
Chorus:
(Baby)...give me back my fantasy
The courage that I need to learn
The air that I breathe
(Living without you)My world’s become so ending
The days are so cold and lonely
Each night I taste...the purest of pain
I’m sorry didn’t meant to call you but I couldn’t fight it
I guess I was weak...I couldn’t even hide it
And so I surrender...just to hear your voice

"And though he never, ever cried,
a tear slid down his freckled nose,
dropped onto his upturned tongue,
satisfied his thirst to know what
growing up can be.
"It is salty," said he; "I need Wendy."
For Wendy would mend his shadow again
and never again would he or she
confuse kisses with thimbles."
-- quoted from the poem "Said Peter Pan to His Mirror". In commemoration of Valentine's Day. Even the Boy who Never Grew Up needed love. the full poem can be found in the Mon, Dec 15 2003 post.

Valentine's Day is coming soon -- this Saturday, 14th Feb. To commemorate the event, I've posted this really interesting article on "how to say I Love You in 100 languages" below -- people who want to communicate your appreciation to your whoever in a special way, feel free to cope from the list.
Hope all of you will enjoy Valentine's Day, whether you have a Whoever or not. If you don't have that special whoever, you can still spend it with all your friends, or your family, or just with yourself (like, listening to the radio teeming with love songs, and close your eyes and i m a g i n e. It helps.)
p.s. michy, veron, wuf, etc etc, are you free to go Iceskating with me after the Moot parliament thingy? We can catch The Last Samurai too. Or bowl instead. if not... then never mind
