TIGblogs - Antonio Reyes

And you ask me what I want this year
And I try to make this kind and clear
Just a chance that maybe we'll find better days
Cuz I don't need boxes wrapped in strings
And desire and love and empty things
Just a chance that maybe we'll find better days

So take these words
And sing out loud
Cuz everyone is forgiven now
Cuz tonight's the night the world begins again

And it's someplace simple where we could live
And something only you can give
And thats faith and trust and peace while we're alive
And the one poor child that saved this world
And there's 10 million more who probably could
If we all just stopped and said a prayer for them

So take these words
And sing out loud
Cuz everyone is forgiven now
Cuz tonight's the night the world begins again

I wish everyone was loved tonight
And somehow stop this endless fight
Just a chance that maybe we'll find better days

So take these words
And sing out loud
Cuz everyone is forgiven now
Cuz tonight's the night the world begins again

The GOO GOO DOLLS - Better days

Life is bigger
Its bigger than you
And you are not me
The lengths that I will go to
The distance in your eyes
Oh no Ive said too much
I set it up

Thats me in the corner
Thats me in the spotlight
Losing my religion
Trying to keep up with you
And I dont know if I can do it
Oh no Ive said too much
I havent said enough
I thought that I heard you laughing
I thought that I heard you sing
I think I thought I saw you try

Every whisper
Of every waking hour im
Choosing my confessions
Trying to keep an eye on you
Like a hurt lost and blinded fool
Oh no Ive said too much
I set it up

Consider this
The hint of the century
Consider this
The slip that brought me
To my knees failed
What if all these fantasies
Come flailing around
Now Ive said too much
I thought that I heard you laughing
I thought that I heard you sing
I think I thought I saw you try

But that was just a dream
That was just a dream

Losing My Religion is a song recorded by the rock band R.E.M. from their 1991 album Out of Time.

Remembering, everything about my world and when you came.
Wondering if the change you’d bring means nothing else would be the same.

Did you know what you were doing? Did you know?
Did you know how you would move me? Well, I don’t really think so.
But the night came down and swept us away. And the
stars, they seemed, to paint the most elaborate scene to date.

How could we know? That song, this show. We'd learn so much about ourselves from Toledo to Tokyo. The words were scribed on every page and now there’s books up on our shelves.

Did you know how you would move us? Did you know?
When the lights first came upon us and we saw the Everglow. And the moment's magic swept us away. And a young man's dream was almost seen so plain.

When was the night that showed us the sign? Revealed in the sky to leave all behind.
But where to begin? Throwing caution to the wind, we reached for the stars. Everything
was now ours.

Did you know how you would move me? Did you know? Did you know how you would move me? Well, I don’t even think so. But the moment's magic swept us away. And it’s so close but we’re so far away. It’s so close but we’re so far away.

If you were coming in the fall
I'd brush the summer by
With half a smile and half a spurn
As housewives do a fly.

If I could see you in a year
I'd wind the months in balls
And put them into separate drawers
Until their time befalls.

If only centuries delayed
I'd count them on my hand
Subtracting 'till my fingers dropped
Into Van Diemen's land

If certain when this life was out
That yours and mine should be
I'd toss life yonder like a rind
And taste eternity.

But now all ignorant of length,
Of times uncertain wing,
It goads me like the goblin bee
That will not state its sting!

If You Were Coming In The Fall
