crystalised by the xx. i first heard it on gossip girl and it has been on my playlist ever since. there's always a couple of lines in a song that catches my attention.. for example, like the one below that i've doodled.
do you have any lines from a song that catches your attention? i'd like to hear about them. or anything that's on your mind. i feel like interacting with anyone who reads this. that may sound kind of weird.. but true.

"I loved you. Gray sweatpants. No make-up. So perfect." John Mayer's "Comfortable"
Actually, John Mayer's got a lot of great one-liners.... :-D
this is my favourite lyric of the moment:
"i can tell just what you want
you don't want to be alone"
- what you want by two door cinema club
and this is probably my all time favourite line in a song...
"i believe that my life's gonna see
the love i give returned to me"
- wheel by john mayer
Oooh, this is fun! I have some lines too that I've had on my playlist recently...
"I'm not surprised, not everything lasts
I've broken my heart so many times, I stopped keeping track
Talk myself in, talk myself out
I get all worked up, then I let myself down
...And I know someday it'll all turn out"
-Haven't met you yet (Michael Buble)
Mine is from a children's movie...the song is Never knew I needed:
"for the way you're something that i never choose
but at the same time something i don't wanna lose
and I never wanna be without ever again"
"i must admit you were not a part of my book
but now if you open it up and take a look
you're the beginning and the end of every chapter"
i LOVE the xx!
I love these lyrics, from a song called 'Hairdo' by Little Birdy (my all time favourite band!!)
"you don't need no hairdo
you don't need no cigarette;
oh baby, i'm addicted"
"Peter Pan and Wendy turned out fine, so won't you fly with me?"
=)
My favourite lyrics at the moment:
"This is the part when we say were in love
And the part where we say it's forever
But this ain't a fantasy
I know you can't come with me"
It's called "When We Say" by a Youtube artist, AJ Rafael! :)
I have been seeing a lot of Broadway musicals recently so I have their songs in my head. Especially...
Day after day,
Wishing all our cares away.
Trying to fight the things we feel,
But some hurts never heal.
Some ghost are never gone,
But we go on,
We still go on.
- Light (from Next to Normal)
So hold this moment fast,
And live and love
As hard as you know how.
And make this moment last
Because the best of times is now.
- The Best of Times (from La Cage Aux Folles)
how about mine?
"come let me love you,
let me give my life to you,
you fill up my sense,
come fill me again.."
:)
I have been meaning to listen to xx. My favorite song at the moment is Heavenly Day by Patti Griffin.
"A perfect summer song.
Tomorrow may rain with sorrow
Here's a little time we can borrow
Forget all our troubles in these moments so few"
The XX are fantastic. Another great one from the same album is "Islands."
"See what I've done/That bridge is on fire/Back to where I've been/I'm froze by desire/No need to leave./
Where would I go/If this were to go under?/That's a risk I'd take/
I'm froze by desire/As if a choice I'd make."
.."you make me so much better-I hope I don't make you worse"..
-This is happiness Gavin Rossdale-
Rolin
mine would be...
"I'm supposed to be happy and deceived." -Getaways turned Holidays.
Really love that line. :)
This band called Wakey!Wakey! has a song called Light Outside & has been on repeat for awhile..
"I know you want to rest your head, and just forget the night, forget the night"
"I think you always knew would be the greatest"
"Because you saved my life once"
He repeats alot of words in the song but I just love it xo
"The stars lean down to kiss you and I lie awake and miss you
Pour me a heavy dose of atmosphere
Cause I'll dose off safe and soundly, but I'll miss your arms around me
I'd send a postcard to you, dear
Cause I wish you were here..."
Vanilla Twilight by Owl City
and...
"Every day's so caffeinated
I wish they were Golden Gated
Fillmore couldn't feel more miles away
So, wrap me up return to sender
Let's forget this 5 year bender
Take me to my city by the Bay
I never knew all that I had
Now Alcatraz don't sound so bad
At least they'd have a hella fine merlot
If I could wish upon a star
I would hitch a cable car
To the one place that I'll always call my home"
Save Me, San Francisco by Train
Kind of long, I know, but SO awesome. =)
If anyone can make me fall in love, you can..
-David Archuleta, You can
And there you are on your knees, Begging for forgiveness, begging for me
Now it's too late for you and your white horse to come around
-White Horse, Taylor Swift
"Droplets of yes and no in an ocean of maybe"
Faith no More - Falling to Pieces

and for the annoying habit people have - not answering
of montreal's requim for O.M.M. "so i gave my heart completely, vaseline over the lenses, memories don't go away, i remember every day, i never ever stopped wondering, wondering if you still think of us, i don't need a photograph cause you've never left my mind, no you've never left my mind" and so on, a beautiful love song.
'the skys way bigger than i ever thought it could be'

i love dust on the ground "the accoustic version is aamazing" by bombay bicycle club:
"It's that ancient love, that you won't outgrow
It's the fee you pay, it's the debt you owe
It's that subtle way that you throw me down
And I'm inches above the dust on the ground"
and death cab for cutie follow you into the dark:)
"And I held my toungue as she told me
"Son fear is the heart of love"
also i love the lyrics of "custom concern" by modest mouse:)
"She Is Love" by Parachute - one of my favorite songs that talks about how love is all you need.
"And I've lost my faith, in my darkest days
but she makes me want to believe.
They call her love, love, love, love, love."
I think it'd be an amazing doodle :)
There have been many songs but I really can't remember anymore.
