...hva er det? Eller bare en tekst du liker veldig godt?
Min er i alle fall ikke "Nei, så tjukk du har blitt..."
Nå er jeg slett ikke 100% sikker på at man kan gjengi sangtekster på nettet sånn uten videre, men hvis man oppgir forfatter, burde det vel være sånn noenlunde???
En av mine favoritter (fordi jeg er en uforbederlig romantiker) er "Annie's song" av John Denver. Nå gikk han og hans kone Annie fra hverandre til slutt, og selv omkom han i et småfly på havet... Uff! Men teksten her er virkelig en av mine favoritter. Jeg tilbrakte mesteparten av mitt første ekteskap med å drømme om at det kunne gå an å få det sånn, og de siste 25 årene har jeg faktisk hatt det sånn...
Annie's song (John Denver)
You fill up my senses
Like a night in the forest
Like the mountains in springtime
Like a walk in the rain
Like a storm in the desert
Like a sleepy, blue ocean
You fill up my senses
Come, fill me again.
Come, let me love you
Let me give my life to you
Let me drown in your laughter
Let me die in your arms
Let me lay down beside you
Let me always be with you
Come, let me love you
Come, love me again.
Min favoritt er Time in a bottle - av Jim Croce - underlig nok skrev han denne til sin kone, og så døde han også i en flyulykke..
[CENTER]Time in a Bottle
If I could save time in a bottle,
The first thing that I'd like to do
Is to save every day till eternity passes away,
Just to spend them with you
If I could make days last forever,
If words could make wishes come true
I'd save every day like a treasure and then,
Again, I would spend them with you
But there never seems to be enough time,
To do the things you want to do
Once you find them
I've looked around enough to know,
You're the one I want to go
Through time with.
If I had a box just for wishes,
And dreams that had never come true
The box would be empty,
Except for the memory
Of how they were answered by you.
But there never seems to be enough time,
To do the things you want to do
Once you find them
I've looked around enough to know,
You're the one I want to go
Through time with [/CENTER]
en av mine favoritter er Bon Jovi, og da særlig baladene hans. Denne er en av mine favoritter.
[size=2]"I Want You"
The last time I saw her
Was the night she said goodbye
She said that love's a stranger
And it's sure to pass you by
As she packed up her belongings
She wouldn't look me in the eye
But I could see a tear roll
Off her face
As we both tried so hard
Not to cry she said
I never wanted the stars
I never shot for the moon
I like them right where they are
All I wanted was you
So baby just turn away
Because I can't face the truth
All I'm trying to say
Is all I wanted was you
I tried so hard to remember
Where when how why love went away
I tried to drown myself in pity
But the whiskey kept calling your name
I bought you fancy cars and diamond rings
All the things that money brings
And the servants to paint the sky blue
And I worked so hard seven days a week
And built a fortress for your heart to keep
If I could I'd wrap these words up for you
I never wanted the stars
I never shot for the moon
I like them right where they are
All I wanted was you
So baby just turn away
Because I can't face the truth
All I'm trying to say
Is all I wanted was you
I may have built for you a dreamhouse
But never thought you were alone
I filled the party up with company
But never made our house a home
All I got is my guitar these chords and the truth
All I got is my guitar ... but all I want is you
Vi kan jo også ha flere yndlingstekster . . . sant?
Her er en annen av mine:
Isn't it a Pity
George Harrison
Isn't it a pity,
Now isn't it a shame
How we break each other's hearts
and cause each other pain?
How we take each other's love
without thinking any more?
forgetting to give back -
Now isn't it a pity?
Some things take too long,
but how do I explain
when not too many people
can see we're all the same?
And because of all their tears
their eyes can't hope to see
the beauty that surrounds us.
Now isn't it a pity?
Har så mange favoritter jeg da - men her er en av dem:
You've Got A Friend
(Carole King)
[CENTER]
[/CENTER] When you're down and troubled and you need some lovin' care and nothin', nothin' is going right. Close your eyes and think of me and soon I will be there to brighten up even your darkest night.
You just call out my name, and you know wherever I am I'll come running to see you again. Winter, spring, summer, or fall, all you have to do is call and I'll be there... You've got a friend.
If the sky above you grows dark and full of clouds, and that old north wind begins to blow. Keep your head together and call my name out loud Soon you'll hear me knocking at your door.
You just call out my name and you know wherever I am I'll come running, running, yeah, to see you again. Winter, spring, summer or fall all you have to do is call and I'll be there, yes I will.
Now, ain't it good to know that you've got a friend, when people can be so cold. They'll hurt you, yes, and desert you, and take your soul if you let them. Oh, but don't you let them.
You just call out my name and you know wherever I am I'll come running, running, yeah, to see you again. Winter spring summer or fall, all you've got to do is call, and I'll be there, yes I will... You've got a friend. You've got a friend. Ain't it good to know you've got a friend.
Ain't it good to know... Ain't it good to know... Ain't it good to know... You've got a friend. Oh, yeah, you've got a friend. Yeah, Baby, you've got a friend. Oh, yeah, you've got a friend.
[LEFT]Det er jo vanskelig å finne en favoritttsang, men denne sangen av Bjørn Eidsvåg synes jeg er veldig flott.:) [/LEFT]
Eg ser at du e trøtt
men eg kan ikkje gå
alle skrittå for deg
Du må gå de sjøl
men eg vil gå de med deg
Eg vil gå de med deg
Eg ser du har det voldt
Men eg kan ikkje grina
Alle tårene for deg
Du må grina de sjøl
Men eg vil grina med deg
Eg vil grina med deg
Eg ser du vil gi opp
Men eg kan ikkje leva
livet for deg
Du må leva det sjøl
Men eg vil leva med deg
Eg vil leva med deg
Ser at du er redd
Men eg kan ikkje gå
i døden for deg
Du må smaka han sjøl
Men eg gjer død til liv, for deg
Eg gjer død til liv for deg
Eg gjer død til liv for deg
Dette er helt klart min favoritt. Den ble spilt i brylluppet vårt og er liksom vår sang..
[CENTER]The Rose[/CENTER]
Some say love it is a river
that drowns the tender reed
Some say love it is a razer
that leaves your soul to blead
Some say love it is a hunger
an endless aching need
I say love it is a flower
and you it's only seed
It's the heart afraid of breaking
that never learns to dance
It's the dream afraid of wakingthat never takes the chance
It's the one who won't be taken
who cannot seem to give
and the soul afraid of dyingthat never learns to live
When the night has been too lonely
and the road has been too long
and you think that love is only
for the lucky and the strong
Just remember in the winterfar beneath the bitter snows
lies the seed
that with the sun's love
in the spring
becomes the rose
Uten sammenligning for øvrig, men denne teksten/sangen ble brukt i den siste serien av "Slankekrigen" på TV Norge... Melodien og teksten er kjempebra, og gir meg en liten piff i hverdagen når ting er litt for nedadgående ;)
Proud - Heather Small
[LEFT]I look into the window of my mind[/LEFT]
Reflections of the fears I know I've left behind
I step out of the ordinary
I can feel my soul ascending
I am on my way
Can't stop me now
And you can do the same
What have you done today to make you feel proud?
It's never too late to try
What have you done today to make you feel proud?
You could be so many people
If you make that break for freedom
What have you done today to make you feel proud?
Still so many answers I don't know
Realise that to question is how we grow
So I step out of the ordinary
I can feel my soul ascending
I am on my way
Can't stop me now
And you can do the same
What have you done today to make you feel proud?
It's never too late to try
What have you done today to make you feel proud?
You could be so many people
If you make that break for freedom
What have you done today to make you feel proud?
We need a change Do it today I can feel my spirit rising We need a change So do it today 'Cause I can see a clear horizon
What have you done today to make you feel proud?
So what have you done today to make you feel proud?
'Cause you could be so many people
If you make that break for freedom
So what have you done today to make you feel proud?
What have you done today to make you feel proud?
What have you done today
You could be so many people?
Just make that break for freedom
So what have you done today to make you feel proud?
