Leonard Cohen - Waiting for the miracle
Baby, I've been waiting,
I've been waiting night and day.
I didn't see the time,
I waited half my life away.
There were lots of invitations
and I know you sent me some,
but I was waiting
for the miracle, for the miracle to come.
I know you really loved me.
but, you see, my hands were tied.
I know it must have hurt you,
it must have hurt your pride
to have to stand beneath my window
with your bugle and your drum,
and me I'm up there waiting
for the miracle, for the miracle to come.
Ah I don't believe you'd like it,
You wouldn't like it here.
There ain't no entertainment
and the judgements are severe.
The Maestro says it's Mozart
but it sounds like bubble gum
when you're waiting
for the miracle, for the miracle to come.
Waiting for the miracle
There's nothing left to do.
I haven't been this happy
since the end of World War II.
Nothing left to do
when you know that you've been taken.
Nothing left to do
when you're begging for a crumb
Nothing left to do
when you've got to go on waiting
waiting for the miracle to come.
I dreamed about you, baby.
It was just the other night.
Most of you was naked
Ah but some of you was light.
The sands of time were falling
from your fingers and your thumb,
and you were waiting
for the miracle, for the miracle to come
Ah baby, let's get married,
we've been alone too long.
Let's be alone together.
Let's see if we're that strong.
Yeah let's do something crazy,
something absolutely wrong
while we're waiting
for the miracle, for the miracle to come.
Nothing left to do ...
When you've fallen on the highway
and you're lying in the rain,
and they ask you how you're doing
of course you'll say you can't complain
If you're squeezed for information,
that's when you've got to play it dumb:
You just say you're out there waiting
for the miracle, for the miracle to come.
I've been waiting night and day.
I didn't see the time,
I waited half my life away.

Skeeter Davis – The end of the world
Why does the sun go on shining?
Why does the sea rush to shore?
Don't they know it's the end of the world,
'Cause you don't love me any more?
Why do the birds go on singing?
Why do the stars glow above?
Don't they know it's the end of the world.
It ended when I lost your love.
I wake up in the morning and I wonder,
Why everything's the same as it was.
I can't understand. No, I can't understand,
How life goes on the way it does.
Why does my heart go on beating?
Why do these eyes of mine cry?
Don't they know it's the end of the world.
It ended when you said goodbye.
Why does my heart go on beating?
Why do these eyes of mine cry?
Don't they know it's the end of the world.
It ended when you said goodbye.
Why does the sea rush to shore?
Don't they know it's the end of the world,
'Cause you don't love me any more?
Why do the birds go on singing?
Why do the stars glow above?
Don't they know it's the end of the world.
It ended when I lost your love.
I wake up in the morning and I wonder,
Why everything's the same as it was.
I can't understand. No, I can't understand,
How life goes on the way it does.
Why does my heart go on beating?
Why do these eyes of mine cry?
Don't they know it's the end of the world.
It ended when you said goodbye.
Why does my heart go on beating?
Why do these eyes of mine cry?
Don't they know it's the end of the world.
It ended when you said goodbye.

Junior Boys - When no one cares
When no one cares
and the phone never rings
the nights are endless things
you're like a child that cries
and no one heeds the crying
you're like a star that dies
and seems to keep on dying
when no one cares
you count souvenirs
and they glisten with your tears
you can't believe a love like hers
could come from someone new
when no one cares but you
when no one cares but you
when no one cares but you
and the phone never rings
the nights are endless things
you're like a child that cries
and no one heeds the crying
you're like a star that dies
and seems to keep on dying
when no one cares
you count souvenirs
and they glisten with your tears
you can't believe a love like hers
could come from someone new
when no one cares but you
when no one cares but you
when no one cares but you

Jay Jay Johanson - I Fantasize of You
Every night I go to sleep
And begin to dream
The story of my dream has got the same old theme
It’s you, baby, it’s you
Turn off the light
Sit down on the couch
Pour me a whiskey too
Take off your dress
I’ll help you with that
I fantasize of you
The scent of your skin
Gets to my head
As the smoke from your cigarette do
With monk in the speakers
And love in your eyes
I fantasize of you
I know I’m only dreaming
Of spending my life with you
But somehow I’m still believing
It all one day will come true
The ice in my glass
Makes my lips so cold
As I kiss you from top to toe
You beg me to stop
But I know you want more
I fantasize of you
And begin to dream
The story of my dream has got the same old theme
It’s you, baby, it’s you
Turn off the light
Sit down on the couch
Pour me a whiskey too
Take off your dress
I’ll help you with that
I fantasize of you
The scent of your skin
Gets to my head
As the smoke from your cigarette do
With monk in the speakers
And love in your eyes
I fantasize of you
I know I’m only dreaming
Of spending my life with you
But somehow I’m still believing
It all one day will come true
The ice in my glass
Makes my lips so cold
As I kiss you from top to toe
You beg me to stop
But I know you want more
I fantasize of you

Moon River
Moon River, wider than a mile,
I'm crossing you in style some day.
Oh, dream maker, you heart breaker,
wherever you're going I'm going your way.
Two drifters off to see the world.
There's such a lot of world to see.
We're after the same rainbow's end--
waiting 'round the bend,
my huckleberry friend,
Moon River and me.
I'm crossing you in style some day.
Oh, dream maker, you heart breaker,
wherever you're going I'm going your way.
Two drifters off to see the world.
There's such a lot of world to see.
We're after the same rainbow's end--
waiting 'round the bend,
my huckleberry friend,
Moon River and me.

NO EASY WAY DOWN
Your toy balloon has sailed in the sky
But now it must fall to the ground
Now your sad eyes reveal
Just how badly you feel
‘Cause there is no easy way down
The view from the cliffs must have been exciting
And up to the peaks you were bound
Now you're stranded alone
And the path is unknown
And there is no easy way down
No, it isn't very easy
When you're left on your own
No, it isn't very easy
When each road you take
Is one more mistake
And there's no one to break your fall
And lead you back home
We all like to climb to the heights, I know
Where our fantasy world can be found
But you must know in the end
When it's time to descend
There is no easy way down
You know you're gonna find
There is no easy way down

M83 - Too late (lyrics)
I look into your eyes
Diving into the ocean
I look into your eyes
Falling!
Like a wall of stars
We are ripe to fall
And if you are a ghost
I'll call your name again
And if you are a ghost
I'll call your name...
You, always.
Diving into the ocean
I look into your eyes
Falling!
Like a wall of stars
We are ripe to fall
And if you are a ghost
I'll call your name again
And if you are a ghost
I'll call your name...
You, always.

David Bowie - Dead Man Walking (great acoustic version)
He swivels his head
Tears his eyes from the screen
As his past puts him back
in Atlantic City
There's not even a demon
in Heaven or Hell
Is it all just human disguise
As I walk down the aisle
And I'm gone
Now I'm older than movies
And I know who's there
When silhouettes fall
And I'm gone
Like I'm dancing on angels
And I'm gone
through the crack in the past
Like a dead man walking
Like a dead man walking
Three old men dancing under the lamplight
Shaking their sex and their bones
And the boys that we were
An alien nation in therapy
Sliding naked and new
Like a bad tempered child
On a rain slicked street
And I'm gone
Now I'm older than movies
And I know who's there
When silhouettes fall
And I'm gone
Like I'm dancing on angels
And I'm gone
through the crack in the past
Like a dead man walking
Like a dead man walking

Prefab Sprout - Looking for Atlantis
If you're looking for Atlantis
You should cast your eye on me
Put your two and two together
Don't you know who built Atlantis
Then returned to the sea
Don't you know who owns the weather ?
Rain or shine
Sure is good to seek a challenge
Sure is fine to set your sights
Sure is foolish to be blinded
There are legions out there churching
Searching for the holy grail
Isn't one of them can find it
All this time
You should be loving someone
And you know who it must be
Cause you'll never find Atlantis
Til you make that someone me
You should be loving someone
And you know who it must be
Cause you'll never find Atlantis
Til you make that someone me
Say you do find your volcano and the darn thing is still hot
Lesson one Child don't waste it
Lesson two The world's your cherry
But tomorrow ? Maybe not
Lesson three Come on and taste it
All this time
You should be loving someone
And you know who it must be
Cause you'll never find Atlantis
Til you make that someone me
You should be loving someone
And you know who it must be
Cause you'll never find Atlantis
Til you make that someone me
You should cast your eye on me
Put your two and two together
Don't you know who built Atlantis
Then returned to the sea
Don't you know who owns the weather ?
Rain or shine
Sure is good to seek a challenge
Sure is fine to set your sights
Sure is foolish to be blinded
There are legions out there churching
Searching for the holy grail
Isn't one of them can find it
All this time
You should be loving someone
And you know who it must be
Cause you'll never find Atlantis
Til you make that someone me
You should be loving someone
And you know who it must be
Cause you'll never find Atlantis
Til you make that someone me
Say you do find your volcano and the darn thing is still hot
Lesson one Child don't waste it
Lesson two The world's your cherry
But tomorrow ? Maybe not
Lesson three Come on and taste it
All this time
You should be loving someone
And you know who it must be
Cause you'll never find Atlantis
Til you make that someone me
You should be loving someone
And you know who it must be
Cause you'll never find Atlantis
Til you make that someone me

Attica Blues - Tender (the final story)
From paper to pen, from pen to paper
Breathe these whispered words
from what was once, to what now has to be
Breathe these whispered words
And when the Blue ink dries, and when we both have cried
Only tender teardrops will remain...
When night-time falls and the air draws cold
Candles flicker, flames, I close my eyes dreaming you are here
Waiting for your shadow, to appear
And what seems strange once our words fade away, is that
Only tender teardrops will remain
Only tender teardrops will remain
I felt the wind behind me, I turned but you weren't there
I felt the wind behind me, I turned but you weren't there, now
Only tender teardrops will remain...
Breathe these whispered words
from what was once, to what now has to be
Breathe these whispered words
And when the Blue ink dries, and when we both have cried
Only tender teardrops will remain...
When night-time falls and the air draws cold
Candles flicker, flames, I close my eyes dreaming you are here
Waiting for your shadow, to appear
And what seems strange once our words fade away, is that
Only tender teardrops will remain
Only tender teardrops will remain
I felt the wind behind me, I turned but you weren't there
I felt the wind behind me, I turned but you weren't there, now
Only tender teardrops will remain...
