Handwritten lyrics
 

Hi all,

I found these clippings in an auction catalog from a couple of years ago. There are some great alt lyrics to these songs, I especially LOVE Thousand Days :thumbsup:



Chiffon
They met an on afternoon dreary
She - all in white chiffon
he in blue jeans and a white shirt
She know she was falling in love

Someone tapped her on the shoulder
as she leaned against the bar
She turned around to face him
as he pulled her down
everyone was watching
but they talked on and on
Believe this when I say it
It happens once and a while

chorus
and that was just beginning
and there has never really been an end
They've been separated most of the time
But when they see each other once in a while
nothing seems to have changed
no change

I'll see him soon, I feel it coming
he walks in my life and out again
but it never stops
no matter how much time goes between
and the feeling remains
each between

Thousand Days

He knocks on the door next to the courtyard
he frightens me ~ till I realize ~
"Who it is ~ !"
I let him him in
I'm already screaming
(and I poised to fight)

He laughs
he has an attitude
so I have an attitude too
and as I'm proud
I return to the desert
to this great shadow ~ of my mountain ~
But you will never come there
nor will you hear the call
when will you realize
sun shine I was in your heart

When there is no sunshine
without it there is on survival
I live by the light of the moon
you by the light of desire
you don't understand ~ or inquire
Someday you will
now its just a thorn in your side
one day, it will be your rival

so, "Stay away ~ !"
for reasons of
It's hard to believe
that after all this time - ?
We have remained so distant
no long distance winner
ever came into your
life
Because you will never let it

"The sun warms
the rain ~ "
"The rain
cools
the sun ~ "
"~ And the wind makes -
me wild..."
and the moon ~
just floats ~ (she's in
high tide) ~


Those lyrics ROCK!!!!

Has Anyone Ever Written Anything for You

Something like your name
so she turned her head - out she walked
And the story says - you won't get away - something lying there
poet, priest of nothing, legend

she speaks no evil
hears no evil ~

2
I thought that there was a connection
he didn't know me ~ well almost nice
I didn't know why ~ I think its right
There you go again ~ There you go again
Why are you crying ~ give me a little time
I need somewhere to go - I at least have the right to say

In trouble again for \ wrong things
1
I didn't
He didn't
there she
she says do you think

just remember wherever
There you go again ~ it could be there
I think its right

Cool, huh?

luv,

You just made my day, thank you. Off to analyze...

thanks for posting.

Very cool! Thank you for sharing! I am loving the Thousand Days lyrics.

Here are a couple more:

All The Beautiful Worlds

I'm not going to transcribe them since we all know the words, but it does have a note in the upper corner reading:
just gets easier
for you!
I can see
what
you see

This one was described as a "note to Lindsey"

Note to Lindsey

I do not want to bother
or get in your way
it is just that I feel since
we spent so much time
together ~

that I need to know you are
safe ~ it matters to me ~
and I worry ~

Just touch base with
get in touch with me ~

let me know where you
are ~
that is all I want from
you

If that just meant to be a note its interesting to see how she writes it out like its lyrics to a song.


"There was also a notebook from Lindsey that had lyrics to a bunch of songs. They don't show this one, but give an excerpt:
If you came back now would I let you in, I'm afraid I would though I know it would end again.."

luv,
Shel

Shel, thanks a billion for sharing. Where is all this coming from?

edit: never mind, I found it already. :)

Oh my gosh, this is so cool!! Thanks for posting.:nod:

Shel, thank you for sharing these with us.:thumbsup: I would have to guess that 'Chiffon" is about Joe Walsh.

That note to Lindsey is very interesting, though I would been a little annoyed to receive a message like that from someone who I had broken up with. When someone is MIA, the reason is usually they don't want to see you!
