Two Feet - Call Me, I Still Love You

 



The Steel Woods - Rock That Says My Name

 
I talk to the people that lie beneath these stones
Imagining they listen makes me feel less alone
I pick up the broken flowers, sometimes I dig a hole
Welcome in the new ones, introduce 'em to the old

I can use a chisel and polisher the same
I'll put anything you'd like to say under a name
I'll put on my suit, make sure my tie is straight
Lend a hand to the mourning, send the loved ones on their way

Well I ain't afraid to die 'cause I know where I'll go
There I'll live forever on the streets made of gold
'Til then I'll keep on working, you won't hear me complain
And every day I'll tip my hat to the rock that says my name

Well I hired on out of high school in 1968
My wife and I picked out a spot right up by the gate
It ain't much but every morning the sun shines on that ground
One of these days when I clock out, that's where I'm a-layin' down

Well I ain't afraid to die 'cause I know where I'll go
There I'll live forever on the streets made of gold
'Til then I'll keep on working, you won't hear me complain
And every day I'll tip my hat to the rock that says my name

Born in Alabama
Year 1-9-5-0
Throw the dirt on top of me
Sow the seeds and let it grow

Well I ain't afraid to die 'cause I know where I'll go
There I'll live forever on the streets made of gold
'Til then I'll keep on working, you won't hear me complain
And every day I'll tip my hat to the rock that says my name

Some day when I'm under it I hope you'll do the same
Stop by sometime, tip your hat to the rock that says my name

Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth
Where moth and rust doth corrupt
And where thieves break through and steal
But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven
Where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt
And where thieves do not break through nor steal
For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also 

 

Richard Ashcroft - Little Red Corvette (Prince cover)

 
I guess I should've known by the way you parked your car sideways
That it wouldn't last
See, you're the kinda person that believes in makin' out once
Love 'em and leave 'em fast
I guess I must be dumb 'cause you had a pocket full of horses
Trojan and some of them used

But it was Saturday night, I guess that makes it all right
And you say - "What have I got to lose?"

And honey, I say Little Red Corvette
Baby, you're much too fast (Oh)
Little Red Corvette
You need a love that's gonna last

I guess I should've closed my eyes when you drove me to the place
Where your horses run free
'Cause I felt a little ill when I saw all the pictures
Of the jockeys that were there before me
Believe it or not, I started to worry
I wondered if I had enough class

But it was Saturday night, I guess that makes it all right
And you say, "Baby, have you got enough gas?"
Oh yeah!

Little Red Corvette
Baby, you're much too fast
(Yes you are)
Little Red Corvette
You need to find a love that's gonna last
(Oh, oh)

A body like yours oughta be in jail
'Cause it's on the verge of bein' obscene
Move over, baby, gimme the keys
I'm gonna try to tame your little red love machine

Little Red Corvette
Baby, you're much too fast
Little Red Corvette
Need to find a love that's gonna last, hey hey

Little Red Corvette
Honey, you got to slow down (Got to slow down)
Little Red Corvette
'Cause if you don't, you're gonna run your Little Red Corvette right in the ground
(Little Red Corvette)
Right down to the ground (Honey, you got to slow down)
You, you, you got to slow down
(Little Red Corvette)
You're movin' much too fast, too fast
Need to find a love that's gonna last

Girl, you got an ass like I never seen, ow!
And the ride
I say the ride is so smooth, you must be a limousine
Ow!

Baby, you're much too fast
Little Red Corvette
You need a love, you need a love that's, uh, that's gonna last
(Little Red Corvette)

Babe, you got to slow down (you got to slow down)
Little Red Corvette
'Cause if you don't, 'cause if you don't
You're gonna run your body right into the ground (Right into the ground)
Right into the ground (Right into the ground)
Right into the ground (Right into the ground)
Little Red Corvette

Chris Stapleton - Nothing Else Matters (Metallica cover)

 
So close, no matter how far
Couldn't be much more from the heart
Forever trusting who we are
And nothing else matters

Never opened myself this way
Life is ours, we live it our way
All these words I don't just say
And nothing else matters

Trust I seek and I find in you
Every day for us something new
Open mind for a different view
And nothing else matters

Never cared for what they do
Never cared for what they know
But I know

So close, no matter how far
Couldn't be much more from the heart
Forever trusting who we are
And nothing else matters

Never cared for what they do
Never cared for what they know
But I know, oh

Never opened myself this way
Life is ours, we live it our way
All these words I don't just say
And nothing else matters

Trust I seek and I find in you
Every day for us something new
Open mind for a different view
And nothing else matters

Never cared for what they say
Never cared for games they play
Never cared for what they do
Never cared for what they know
And I know, yeah

So close, no matter how far
Couldn't be much more from the heart
Forever trusting who we are
And nothing else matters 

 

Gary Moore - Empty Rooms (Up!)

 
Loneliness is your only friend.
A broken heart that just won't mend
Is the price you pay.

It's hard to take when love grows old.
The days are long and the nights turn cold
When it fades away.

You hope that she will change her mind
But the days drift on and on.
You'll never know the reason why she's gone.

You see her face in every crowd.
You hear her voice, but you're still proud
So you turn away.

You tell yourself that you'll be strong.
But your heart tells you
This time you're wrong.

You hope that she will change her mind
But the days drift on and on.
You'll never know the reason why she's gone.

Empty rooms
Where we learn to live without love.
Empty rooms
Where we learn to live without love.
Empty rooms
Where we learn to live without love.

Empty rooms
Where we learn to live without love.
Empty rooms
Where we learn to live without love.

 

Eric Serra - My Lady Blue

 
No regrets, no tears
Only a strange feeling
Sleeping without falling
I'll try another World
Where the water is not blue anymore
Another reallity
Oh, my baby I love you
My lady blue
I'm looking for something
That I'll never reach
I seek eternity
No more sun, no more wind
Only a strange feeling
Leaving without moving
I'll try another World
And the sky slowly fades in my mind
Just like a memory
No more reasons, no fears
Only this strange feeling
Giving without thinking
Oh, my baby I love you
My lady blue
I'm looking for something
I'll never reach
Baby, I love you
My lady blue
I'm searching for something
That I'll never reach
I seek eternity

 

John Donne - Death Be Not Proud


Death, be not proud, though some have called thee
 Mighty and dreadful, for thou art not so;
 For those whom thou think'st thou dost overthrow
 Die not, poor Death, nor yet canst thou kill me.
 From rest and sleep, which but thy pictures be,
 Much pleasure; then from thee much more must flow,
 And soonest our best men with thee do go,
 Rest of their bones, and soul's delivery.
 Thou art slave to fate, chance, kings, and desperate men,
 And dost with poison, war, and sickness dwell,
 And poppy or charms can make us sleep as well
 And better than thy stroke; why swell'st thou then?
 One short sleep past, we wake eternally
 And death shall be no more; Death, thou shalt die. 

In loving memory of Franck C.

Iñigo Quintero - El Equilibrio

 
Aceleras...
Y no te sigo el ritmo
Hace tiempo que ya nunca coincidimos
Y no te puedo mirar, no te puedo mirar

Es que no encuentro el camino
Estoy dando vueltas y he bajado al río
Buscando respuestas
¿Qué ha sido de todo lo que hablamos y no he conocido?
Si se va a la primera

Olvídame, de esto que hace daño
Yo ya he perdido el equilibrio
Que me hacía estar tranquilo
Indícame el mejor rebaño
Habla conmigo haz que acaricie
Todas las cicatrice de tu piel
De tu piel

Si pudiera volver a acercarme
Aunque sea tan solo un instante
Y brindar por el niño que abrazas porque ya está en casa
Ha vuelto a su hogar
Y no te puedo mirar, no te puedo mirar

Olvídame, de esto que hace daño
Yo ya he perdido el equilibrio
Que me hacía estar tranquilo
Indícame el mejor rebaño
Habla conmigo haz que acaricie
Todas las cicatrice de tu piel

Y acabo en el agua sin novedad
Pasan los años, pasan los años
Y vuelves a verme por la ciudad
Como un extraño
Como un extraño más
Como un extraño más
Como un extraño más

Olvídame, de esto que hace daño
Yo ya he perdido el equilibrio
Que me hacía estar tranquilo
Indícame el mejor rebaño
Habla conmigo haz que acaricie
Todas las cicatrice de tu piel
De tu piel 

 

Sohn - Song To The Siren (Tim Buckley cover)

 
Long afloat on shipless oceans
I did all like you to smile
'Til your singing eyes and fingers
Drew me loving into your isle

And you sang:
"Sail to me
Sail to me
Let me enfold you"
Here I am
Here I am
Waiting to hold you

Did I dream you dreamed about me?
Were you hare when I was fox?
Now my foolish boat is leaning
Broken lovelorn on your rocks
For you sing:
'Touch me not, touch me not, come back tomorrow
Here I am, here I am, o my heart, shies from the sorrow'
o my heart, shies from the sorrow'

I am puzzled as the oyster
I am riddle as the tide:
Should I stand amid your breakers?
Or should I lie with death my bride?

Hear me sing
"Swim to me
Swim to me
Let me enfold you:
Here I am
Here I am
Waiting to hold you
Here I am
Here I am
Waiting to hold you" 

 

Eivør Pálsdóttir - Hugsi Bert Um Teg

 
Svøvnleysa náttin
Er nú aftur her
Komin at vitja meg
Enn einaferð

Heimleysur longsul
Floymir inn um hurðagátt
Fyllir tøgnina
Nú í nátt

Tímarnir hanga
Og eg hugsi bert um teg
Heimurin endar
Men eg hugsi bert um teg

Larmandi býður
Og eg gangi inn í
Mannamúgvur
Vinir eg ei havi sæð í langa tíð

Dansi í náttini
Tíðin hongur
Men enn er tað bara tú
Í mínum tonkum

Tímarnir hanga
Og eg hugsi bert um teg
Heimurin endar
Men eg hugsi bert um teg
Eg eri fangað
Tú hevur kastað gand á meg
Dagarnir ganga
Og eg hugsi bert um teg
Hugsi bert um teg
Hugsi bert um teg
Hugsi bert um teg
 

HAEVN & néomí - We Are

 
A morning filled with dark night
Calling out your name
I'm waiting for an answer
How did we end up here?

Try to find a shoreline
With no ground beneath my feet
I miss your hand in mine now
I try to understand

Cold... We are, we are, we are
Cold... We are, we are, we are
Baby we're lost
Come home with me
Baby we're lost
Come home

Once we were like sunlight
With nothing in between
Now we share the distance
With shadows at our feet

I'm blinded by desire
A new horizon that I see
I feel the cold of rain drops
Salted by my tears

Cold... We are, we are, we are
And cold... We are, we are, we are
Baby we're lost
Come home with me
Baby we're lost
Come home

And we'll walk until
A new day will break
Til the hurt wears off
And the storm will fade
We will talk again
About the difference
And we both will see
That our love has grown

Baby we're lost
Come home with me
Baby we're lost
Come home
Baby we're lost
Come home, with me 

 

Iñigo Quintero - Sobredosis (Up!)

 

Oigo las sirenas, choco con la realidad
Los ojos abiertos, mucha fragilidad
Preso del azar y ya lo estoy echando de menos
Cómo te miraba, embobado, sin pensar

Viernes, a las dos, sobredosis de emoción
Me pierdo en las historias olvidadas en tu honor
Y ahora que te largas, no me pidas nada más
Más

Quiero ser tu voz, suelo perder la noción
No me salen las palabras
Mala reputación cuando salgo, sin valor
Otra vez en las portadas

No, no, no
Más de lo que puedo imaginar
Me hace daño esta ciudad
Oh, no, no, no, no

Oh, y me pierde la ciudad
Oh, no, no, no
Y me duele la ciudad

Dejo en visto tus llamadas, es un plan fatal
Hay indicios de peligro
Bajo el manto de esta oscuridad
Es difícil distinguir, entre sombras, la verdad

Busco, entre tus vicios, algo donde descansar
Una sensación extraña de que todo va a cambiar
Me acerco a tu templo sin saber qué pasará
Y no sé, si respirar lo que me das, porque es veneno

Oh, y no es nada bueno
Porque quema, porque quema, no, no, no

Quiero ser tu voz, suelo perder la noción
No me salen las palabras
Mala reputación cuando salgo, sin valor
Otra vez en las portadas

No, no, no
Más de lo que puedo imaginar
Me hace daño esta ciudad
Oh, no, no, no, no

Oh, y me pierde la ciudad
Oh, no, no, no
Me pierde la ciudad

While She Sleeps - To The Flowers

 
To the flowers

I'm staring out myself
Scared of all I can't feel
And I'm dancing on the edge
Punching at the doorbell
Try not to wake the neighbours now

We're all high as the gods
And as low as the demons but she's alone

I'm saving it for best
Taking all the sentiment
And starting at the end
Pain in single measures
Try not to wake the neighbours now

We're all high as the gods
And as low as the demons but she's alone

We're all going
Down, down, down
Down, down, down
We're all going
Down, down, down to the flowers
Down, down, down to the flowers

(Down, down, down
Down, down, down
Down, down, down
Down, down, down...)

I miss the optimist who told me I need nothing
Who said the consequence was equal to the moment
I wish for the start while I pray for the end
Let's take it all for granted, I know nothing's gonna change at all

I miss the optimist who told me I need nothing
Who said the consequence was equal to the moment
It's closing time when they turn up the lights
Let's take it all for granted, I know nothing's gonna change at all
It's too late, nothing's gonna change at all
Nothing's gonna change at all

To the flowers
To the flowers 

 

Thom Yorke – Knife Edge

 
You'd better not be fooling round
Or stringing me along
I'm on a knife edge anyway
Just trying not to do wrong

What if your heart's not in it then
And I am just a game?
I hope you mean the things you say
Your oh, so careful words

'Cause this to me is life or death
And all I think about
Yeah, this to me is life or death
And all I think about

If I were you, I'd run away
Get out while you still can

'Cause this to me is life or death
And all I think about
Yeah, this to me is life or death
And all I think about
Yeah, this to me is life or death
And all I think about 

 

Still Corners - The Dream

 
We are on a night train
Heading to the east end
Waiting for the time
Looking for a sign

The waves are green
The moon like a jewel
On the Nile
We are on the Nile

We're in a dream
We're in a dream
And you know all's not
What it seems
We're in a dream
We're in a dream
And maybe it's a
Dream within a dream

As quick as light
A shadow moves
In your eyes
It's all in your eyes

The endless sands
Stretch far away
I don't understand
I don't understand

We're in a dream
We're in a dream
And you know all's not
What it seems
We're in a dream
We're in a dream
And maybe it's a
Dream within a dream

We're in a dream
We're in a dream
And you know all's not
What it seems
We're in a dream
We're in a dream
And maybe it's a
Dream within a dream 

 

Massif du Sancy (Puy-de-Dôme)

 


Ronnie James Dio - Don't Talk To Strangers

 
Don't talk to strangers
Hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm hmm
Don't talk to strangers
'Cause they're only there to do you harm

Don't write in starlight
'Cause the words may come out real

Don't hide in doorways
You may find the key that opens up your soul
Don't go to heaven
'Cause it's really only hell

Don't smell the flowers
They're an evil drug to make you lose your mind
Don't dream of women
'Cause they'll only bring you down

Hey, you, you know me
You can touch me I'm real
I'm forever the one that lets you look and see

Can you feel me?
I'm danger, I'm the stranger

And I, I'm darkness
I'm anger, I'm pain
I, I'm the master
The evil song you sing inside your brain
Drive you insane

Don't talk

Don't let them inside your mind yeah

Run away, run away, go

No, no, don't let them in your mind

Protect your soul

Don't dance in darkness
You may stumble and you're sure to fall
Don't write in starlight
'Cause the words may come out real

Don't talk to strangers
'Cause they're only there to make you sad
Don't dream of women
'Cause they'll only bring you down yeah

Run, run, run, run away

Jeanette - Porque Te Vas

 

Hoy, en mi ventana, brilla el Sol
Y el corazón se pone triste
Contemplando la ciudad
Porque te vas

Como en cada noche desperté
Pensando en ti
Y en mi reloj todas las horas vi pasar
Porque te vas

Todas las promesas de mi amor se irán contigo
Me olvidarás, me olvidarás
Junto a la estación hoy lloraré igual que un niño
Porque te vas, porque te vas, porque te vas, porque te vas

Bajo la penumbra de un farol se dormirán
Todas las cosas que quedaron por decir, se dormirán
Junto a las manillas de un reloj esperarán
Todas las horas que quedaron por vivir, esperarán

Todas las promesas de mi amor se irán contigo
Me olvidarás, me olvidarás
Junto a la estación hoy lloraré igual que un niño
Porque te vas, porque te vas, porque te vas, porque te vas

Todas las promesas de mi amor se irán contigo
Me olvidarás, me olvidarás
Junto a la estación hoy lloraré igual que un niño
Porque te vas, porque te vas

Todas las promesas de mi amor se irán contigo
Me olvidarás, me olvidarás
Junto a la estación hoy lloraré igual que un niño
Porque te vas, porque te vas, porque te vas, porque te vas


 

Hey Kid - Los Lugares Donde Irás

 

Sabía que ibas a volver
Porque el mundo lo sabe
Que tú querías conocer
Quizás se me hizo tarde

Vuelve a hablar
De los lugares donde irán
Que si van a volverte a ver
Si sola vas, no te pierdas otra vez

Porque yo no quisiera tener que perderme también
Porque yo no quisiera tener que perderme también
Sabía que ibas a volver
Porque el mundo lo sabe

Que tú querías conocer
Quizás se me hizo tarde
No estás sola, no estás sola
Corre, no cruces la puerta y vuelve a por mí

Y van recorriendo los bares
No me mires, no me mates
Por querer esconderme en la nieve, en los valles
Por querer esconderme lejos de ciudades

Sabía que ibas a volver
Porque el mundo lo sabe
Que tú querías conocer
Quizás se me hizo tarde

No estás sola, no estás sola
Corre, no cruces la puerta y vuelve
Vuelve ya, que no quiero verte sola caminar
Vuelve ya, que sin ti no puedo

Sabía que ibas a volver
Porque el mundo lo sabe
Sabía que ibas a volver
Quizás se me hizo tarde

Sabía que ibas a volver
Aún no es tarde y lo sabes
Sabía que ibas a volver
Quizá se me ha hecho tarde


 

 

Iñigo Quintero - Desconocido

 

¿Qué me has hecho para pensar que ya no soy tu amigo?
¿De qué vale tu mirada si no soy testigo?
Buscas a alguien para amar, yo estaba tan vacío
Ya no vienes a por mí, soy un desconocido
Soy un desconocido

¿Qué más da? Si nunca he querido quedarme
Entraba siempre por detrás, para que no te viese nadie
¿Qué m
ás da? ¿Qué más da?
¿Qué más da? Si al final iba a destrozarme
Pues no era parte de tu plan, no me va a costar alejarme
¿Qué m
ás da? ¿Qué más da? ¿Qué más da?

¿Qué me has hecho para pensar que ya no soy tu amigo?
¿De qué vale tu mirada si no soy testigo?
Buscas a alguien para amar, yo estaba tan vacío
Ya no vienes a por mí, soy un desconocido
Soy un desconocido

No quería nada en la vida solo esa sintonía que nunca se da
Tú eras todo lo que pedía, ya no mires arriba que te quedará, que te quedará

¿Qué más da? Si nunca he querido quedarme
Entraba siempre por detrás, para que no te viese nadie
¿Qué m
ás da? ¿Qué más da?
¿Qué más da? Si al final iba a destrozarme
Pues no era parte de tu plan, no me va a costar alejarme
