What are some songs about losing a father??
There's the song from Phantom of the Opera called "Wishing you were Somehow Here Again" it's about the death of her father. Here's the lyrics: You were once my one companion You were all that mattered You were once a friend and father Then my world was shattered Wishing you were somehow here again Wishing you were somehow near Sometimes it seemed if I just dreamed Somehow you would be here Wishing I could hear your voice again Knowing that I never would Dreaming of you won't help me to do All that you dreamed I could Passing bells and sculpted angels Cold and monumental Seem for you the wrong companions You were warm and gentle Too many years fighting back tears Why can't the past just die? Wishing you were somehow here again Knowing we must say goodbye Try to forgive, teach me to live Give me the strength to try No more memories, no more silent tears No more gazing across the wasted years Help me say goodbye Help me say goodbye
Looking for gospel song lyrics?
It might be "I Told The Storm" by Greg O'Quin: Even though your winds blow I want you to know You cause me no alarm Cause I'm safe in his arms Even though your rain falls I can still make this call; Let there be peace Now I can say go away I command you to move today Because of faith, I have a brand new day The sun will shine - and I will be okay That's when I told the storm! I told the storm to pass (oh yes I did) Storm you can't last (oh oh, you've got to go away) Go away - I command you to move today Storm - when God speaks; (when God speaks, you don't have a choice in the matter) Storm - you've got to cease That's what I told storm! Wind stop blowing! Flood stop flowing! Lightning stop flashing! Breakers stop dashing! Darkness go away! Clouds move away! That's what I told the storm! Death can't shake me! Job can't make me! Bills can't break me! You can't drown me! Cause my Gods surrounds me! That's what I told the storm!
Songs that have strong, meaningful lyrics, and paint picture in you head?
This song has powerful imagery and beautiful/tragic lyrics that truly paint a picture in my head that I feel in my heart: Death Cab For Cutie - What Sarah Said "And it came to me then that every plan is a tiny prayer to father time As I stared at my shoes in the ICU that reeked of piss and 409 And I rationed my breaths as I said to myself that I'd already taken too much today As each descending peak on the LCD took you a little farther away from me Away from me Amongst the vending machines and year-old magazines in a place where we only say goodbye It stung like a violent wind that our memories depend on a faulty camera in our minds But I knew that you were a truth I would rather lose than to have never lain beside at all And I looked around at all the eyes on the ground as the TV entertained itself 'Cause there's no comfort in the waiting room Just nervous pacers bracing for bad news And then the nurse comes round and everyone will lift their heads But I'm thinking of what Sarah said that 'Love is watching someone die' So who's going to watch you die?.."
Anyone know the song with lyrics " the more the more you learn the less the less you know'?
nelly futardo - try All I know Is everything is not as it's sold but the more I learn the less I know And I have lived so many lives Though I'm not old And the more I see, the less I grow The fewer the seeds the more I sow Then I see you standing there Wanting more from me And all I can do is try Then I see you standing there Wanting more from me And all I can do is try I wish I hadn't seen all of the realness And all the real people are really not real at all The more I learn the more I cry As I say goodbye to the way of life I thought I had designed for me Then I see you standing there Wanting more from me And all I can do is try Then I see you standing there I'm all I'll ever be But all I can do is try Try All of the moments that already passed We'll try to go back and make them last All of the things we want each other to be We never will be And that's wonderful, and that's life And that's you, baby This is me, baby And we are, we are, we are, we are Free In our love We are free in our love
What is the meaning of the song "winter" by Tori Amos?
For me this song is basically a look at the passage of life through a happy event that she remembers from her childhood. The first verse is about when she was a little girl playing with her father and enjoying all the little things kids do. It's all about innocence, before things get complicated. The second verse is about when she came into adolescence and became a teenager, and started worrying about boys, the future, about how she was perceived etc. It's more about her developing anxieties about herself. The third verse is about how as soon as you stop worrying about life for just a brief second and take a step back you realize how fleeting it really is. The final two lines in the verse are her going back to the memory of her father and how his love for her was always constant no matter how she felt about herself. the chorus throughout the song is the reassuring voice of her father, telling her he loves her no matter what and that he wants her to be happy, but also to get ready for whatever her future holds. A really amazing song. my fave Tori song ever!
