The saddest song lyrics

[slushy]

Nothing Compares 2 U


It's been seven hours and fifteen days
Since you took your love away
I go out every night and sleep all day
Since you took your love away
Since you been gone I can do whatever I want
I can see whomever I choose
I can eat my dinner in a fancy restaurant
But nothing
I said nothing can take away these blues
`Cause nothing compares
Nothing compares to you
It's been so lonely without you here
Like a bird without a song
Nothing can stop these lonely tears from falling
Tell me baby where did I go wrong
I could put my arms around every boy I see
But they'd only remind me of you
I went to the doctor n'guess what he told me
Guess what he told me
He said girl u better try to have fun
No matter what you'll do
But he's a fool
`Cause nothing compares
Nothing compares to you
all the flowers that you planted, mama
In the back yard
All died when you went away
I know that living with you baby was sometimes hard
But I'm willing to give it another try
Nothing compares
Nothing compares to you
Nothing compares
Nothing compares to you
Nothing compares
Nothing compares to you



Not sure if its the lyrics that make me cry or that i remember the video where she sang with tears rolling down her face

Ella Fitzgerald :- Evrytime we say goodbye

Pure class, gives me chills


Everytime we say goodbye, I die a little,
Everytime we say goodbye, I wonder why a little,
Why the Gods above me, who must be in the know.
Think so little of me, they allow you to go.
When you're near, there's such an air of spring about it,
I can hear a lark somewhere, begin to sing about it,
There's no love song finer, but how strange the change from major to
minor,
Everytime we say goodbye.

When you're near, there's such an air of spring about it,
I can hear a lark somewhere, begin to sing about it,
There's no love song finer, but how strange the change from major to
minor,
Everytime we say goodbye.

This is my sad song for personal reasons....its Angie by the Rollign Stones, but its the Aslan version that I like.....

Angie, Angie, when will those clouds all disappear?

Angie, Angie, where will it lead us from here?

With no loving in our souls and no money in our coats

You can't say we're satisfied

But Angie, Angie, you can't say we never tried

Angie, you're beautiful, but ain't it time we said good-bye?

Angie, I still love you, remember all those nights we cried?

All the dreams we held so close seemed to all go up in smoke

Let me whisper in your ear:

Angie, Angie, where will it lead us from here?

Oh, Angie, don't you weep, all your kisses still taste sweet

I hate that sadness in your eyes

But Angie, Angie, ain't it time we said good-bye?

With no loving in our souls and no money in our coats

You can't say we're satisfied

But Angie, I still love you, baby

Ev'rywhere I look I see your eyes

There ain't a woman that comes close to you

Come on Baby, dry your eyes

But Angie, Angie, ain't it good to be alive?

Angie, Angie, they can't say we never tried

Diana Ross :- touch me in the morning
Touch me in the morning
Then just walk away
We dont have tomorrow
But we had yesterday

(hey!)
Wasnt it me who said that
Nothing goods gonna last forever?
And wasnt it me who said
Lets just be glad for the time together?
It mustve been hard to tell me
That youve given all you had to give
I can understand youre feeling that way
Everybodys got their life to live

Well, I can say goodbye in the cold morning light
But I cant watch love die in the warmth of the night
If Ive got to be strong
Dont you know I need to have tonight when youre gone?
till you go I need to lie here and think about
The last time that youll touch me in the morning
Then just close the door
Leave me as you found me, empty like before

(hey!)
Wasnt it yesterday
We used to laugh at the wind behind us?
Didnt we run away and hope
That time wouldnt try to find us (didnt we run)
Didnt we take each other
To a place where no ones ever been?
Yeah, I really need you near me tonight
cause youll never take me there again
Let me watch you go
With the sun in my eyes
Weve seen how love can grow
Now well see how it dies

If Ive got to be strong
Dont you know I need to have tonight when youre gone?
till you go I need to hold you until the time
Your hands reach out and touch me in the morning
(mornings where blue and gold and we could feel one another living)
Then just walk away
(we walked with a dream to hold and we could take what the world was giving)
We dont have tomorrow,
(theres no tomorrow here, theres only love and the time to chase it)
But we had yesterday
(but yesterdays gone my love, theres only now and its time to face it)
Touch me in the morning...

 

[slushy]

and we cant forget :


"I Will Always Love You"

If I
Should stay
I would only be in your way
So I'll go
But I know
I'll think of you every step of
the way

And I...
Will always
Love you, oohh
Will always
Love you
You
My darling you
Mmm-mm

Bittersweet
Memories
That is all I'm taking with me
So good-bye
Please don't cry
We both know I'm not what you
You need

And I...
Will always love you
I...
Will always love you
You, ooh

[Instrumental / Sax solo]

I hope
life treats you kind
And I hope
you have all you've dreamed of
And I wish you joy
and happiness
But above all this
I wish you love

And I...
Will always love you
I...
Will always love you
[Repeat]

I, I will always love
You....
You
Darling I love you
I'll always
I'll always
Love
You..

Ugly Kid Joe - Cats In The Cradle And The Silver Spoon Lyrics

Verse 1
My child arrived just the other day
Came to theworld in the usual way
But there were planes to catch andbills to pay
He learned to walk while I was away
Hewas talkin' 'fore I knew it
And as he grew hesaid,
"I'm gonna be like you, Dad,
You knowI'm gonna be like you."


Chorus
Andthe cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon,
Littleboy blue and the man 'n the moon.
"When youcomin' home?"
"Son, I don't know when. We'llget together then.
You know we'll have a good timethen."


Verse 2
Well, my son turned tenjust the other day.
He said, "Thanks for the ball, Dad.Come on, let's play.
Could you teach me to throw?"
I said, "Not today. I got a lot to do."
He said,"That's okay." And he walked away and he smiledandhesaid,
"You know, I'm gonna be like him, yeah.
You know I'm gonna be like him."

Chorus

Verse 3
Well, he came from college just the otherday,
So much like a man I just had to say,
"I'mproud of you. Could you sit for a while?"
He shook his headand he said with a smile,
"What I'd really like, Dad,is to borrow the car keys.
See you later. Can I have themplease ?"

Chorus

Verse 4
I'velong since retired, my son's moved away.
I called himup just the other day.
"I'd like to see you, if youdon't mind."
He said, "I'd love to, Dad, if Icould find the time.
You see my new job's a hassle andthe kids have the flu,
But it's sure nice talkin'to you, Dad.
It's been sure nice talkin' toyou."
And as I hung up the phone it occurred to me,
He'd grown up just like me.
My boy was just likeme.

this song always made me cry, probably mainly cos thats how I've felt myself a lot.

Am I not pretty enough by Kasey Chambers

Am I not pretty enough
Is my heart too broken?
Do I cry too much?
Am I too outspoken?
Don’t I make you laugh?
Should I try it harder?
Why do you see right through me?

I live, I breathe, I let it rain on me,
I sleep, I wake, I try hard not to break,
I crave, I love, I’ve waited long enough,
I try as hard as I can.

Am I not pretty enough?
Is my heart too broken?
Do I cry too much?
Am I too outspoken?
Don’t I make you laugh?
Should I try it harder?
Why do you see right through me?

I laugh, I feel, I make believe it’s real,
I fall, I freeze, I pray down on my knees,
I hope, I stand, I take it like a man,
I try as hard as I can.

Am I not pretty enough?
Is my heart too broken?
Do I cry too much?
Am I too outspoken?
Don’t I make you laugh?
Should I try it harder?
Why do you see right through me?

Why do you see, why do you see, why do you see right through me?x4

This is my last sad song...always makes me cry cos it was sang at my cousins funeral by the kids in his class


Aerosmith - I Don't Want To Miss A Thing Lyrics

I could stay awake just to hear you breathing,
Watch you smile while you are sleeping,
While you're far away and dreaming,
I could spend my life in this sweet surrender,
I could stay lost in this moment forever,
Well, every moment spent with you,
Is a moment I treasure

I don't wanna close my eyes,
I don't wanna fall asleep,
'Cause I'd miss you, baby,
And I don't wanna miss a thing,
'Cause even when I dream of you,
The sweetest dream would never do,
I'd still miss you, baby,
And I don't wanna miss a thing

Lying close to you,
Feeling your heart beating,
And I'm wondering what you're dreaming,
Wondering if it's me you're seeing,
Then I kiss your eyes and thank God we're together,
And I just wanna stay with you,
In this moment forever, forever and ever,

I don't wanna close my eyes,
I don't wanna fall asleep,
'Cause I'd miss you, baby,
And I don't wanna miss a thing,
'Cause even when I dream of you,
The sweetest dream would never do,
I'd still miss you, baby,
And I don't wanna miss a thing

I don't wanna miss one smile,
I don't wanna miss one kiss,
Well, I just wanna be with you,
Right here with you, just like this,
I just wanna hold you close,
Feel your heart so close to mine,
And just stay here in this moment,
For all the rest of time

Don't wanna close my eyes,
Don't wanna fall asleep,
'Cause I'd miss you, baby,
And I don't wanna miss a thing,
'Cause even when I dream of you,
The sweetest dream would never do,
'Cause I'd still miss you, baby,
And I don't wanna miss a thing

I don't wanna close my eyes,
I don't wanna fall asleep,
'Cause I'd miss you, baby,
And I don't wanna miss a thing,
'Cause even when I dream of you,
The sweetest dream would never do,
I'd still miss you, baby,
And I don't wanna miss a thing

Don't wanna close my eyes
Don't wanna fall asleep, yeah

I don't wanna miss a thing
I don't wanna miss a thing

Cried my heart out to this

Anything for you
Though you're not here
Since you said we're through
It seems like years
Time keeps draggin' on and on
And forever's been and gone
Still I can't figure what went wrong
I'd still do anything for you
I'll play your game
You hurt me through and through
But you can have your way
I can pretend each time I see you
That I don't care and I don't need you
And, though you'll never see me cryin'
You know, inside, I feel like dying
And I'd do anything for you
In spite of it all
I've learned so much from you
You made me strong
But don't you ever think that I don't love you
That, for one minute, I forgot you
But, sometimes, things don't work out right
And you just have to say goodbye
I hope you find someone to please you
Someone who'll care and never leave you
But, if that someone ever hurts you
You just might need a friend to turn to
And I'd do anything for you
I'll give you up
If that's what I should do
To make you happy
Don't you ever think that I don't love you
That, for one minute, I forgot you
But, sometimes, things don't work out right
And you just have to say goodbye Don't wanna say goodbye one many times !

Gloria Estefan :- Anything for you !

James Blunt - Goodbye My Lover Lyrics

Did I disappoint you or let you down?
Should I be feeling guilty or let the judges frown?
'Cause I saw the end before we'd begun,
Yes I saw you were blinded and I knew I had won.
So I took what's mine by eternal right.
Took your soul out into the night.
It may be over but it won't stop there,
I am here for you if you'd only care.
You touched my heart you touched my soul.
You changed my life and all my goals.
And love is blind and that I knew when,
My heart was blinded by you.
I've kissed your lips and held your head.
Shared your dreams and shared your bed.
I know you well, I know your smell.
I've been addicted to you.

Goodbye my lover.
Goodbye my friend.
You have been the one.
You have been the one for me.

I am a dreamer but when I wake,
You can't break my spirit - it's my dreams you take.
And as you move on, remember me,
Remember us and all we used to be
I've seen you cry, I've seen you smile.
I've watched you sleeping for a while.
I'd be the father of your child.
I'd spend a lifetime with you.
I know your fears and you know mine.
We've had our doubts but now we're fine,
And I love you, I swear that's true.
I cannot live without you.

Goodbye my lover.
Goodbye my friend.
You have been the one.
You have been the one for me.

And I still hold your hand in mine.
In mine when I'm asleep.
And I will bear my soul in time,
When I'm kneeling at your feet.
Goodbye my lover.
Goodbye my friend.
You have been the one.
You have been the one for me.
I'm so hollow, baby, I'm so hollow.
I'm so, I'm so, I'm so hollow.

Smokie - When A Child Is Born Lyrics

A ray of hope flickers in the sky
A tiny star lights up way up high
All across the land dawns a brand new morn
This comes to pass when a child is born
A silent wish sails the seven seas
The winds of change whisper in the trees
And the wall of doubt crumbles dust and torn
This comes to pass when the child is born
The rosy view settles all around
You got the feel you're on solid ground
For a spell or two no one seems forlorn
This comes to pass when a child is born
And all this happens because the world is waiting
Waiting for one child
Black, white, yellow
No one knows
This child who will grow up and turn tears to laughter
Hate to love
War to peace
And everyone to everyone's neighbour
And misery and suffering will be words to be forgottenforever
For a spell or two no-one seems forlorn
This comes to pass when a child is born
It's all a dream an illusion now
It must come true sometime soon somehow
And all across the land dawns a brand new morn
This comes to pass when a child is born
This comes to pass when a child is born
This comes to pass when a child is born
This comes to pass when a child is born

Radiohead:-Fake plastic trees sounds better than it reads lol !

Her green plastic watering can
For her fake chinese rubber plant
In fake plastic earth.
That she bought from a rubber man
In a town full of rubber plants
Just to get rid of itself.
And it wears her out, it wears her out
It wears her out, it wears her out.

She lives with a broken man
A cracked polystyrene man
Who just crumbles and burns.
He used to do surgery
For girls in the eighties
But gravity always wins.
And it wears him out, it wears him out
It wears him out, it wears him out.

She looks like the real thing
She tastes like the real thing
My fake plastic love.
But I cant help the feeling
I could blow through the ceiling
If I just turn and run
And it wears me out, it wears me out
It wears me out, it wears me out.

And if I could be who you wanted
If I could be who you wanted,
All the time, all the time, ohhh... ohh...

Suede - by the sea

(My song )

She can walk out anytime anytime she wants to walk out that's fine
She can walk out anytime anytime she feels that life has passed her
by
And when I start my new life I won't touch the ground
I'm gonna try hard this time not to touch the ground.
He can walk out anytime anytime he wants to walk out that's fine
He can walk out anytime across the sand into the sea into the
brine
And when I start my new life I won't touch the ground,
I'm gonna try hard this time not to touch the ground.
So we sold the car and quit the job
and shook some hands and wiped the make-up right off,
And we said our good-byes to the bank
left Seven Sisters for a room in a seaside shack,
And when I start my new life I won't touch the ground,
I'm gonna try hard this time not to touch the grounds
...it's by the sea we'll breed
...into the sea we'll bleed...

Billy Paul - me & mrs Jones

Me and Mrs.Jones
We got a thing goin'on
We both know that it's wrong
But it's much too strong
To let it go now

We meet every day at the same cafe
Six-thirty and no one knows she'll be there
Holding hands, making all kinds of plans
While the juke box plays our favorite songs

Me and Mrs.Jones
We got a thing goin'on
We both know that it's wrong
But it's much too strong
To let it go now

We gotta be extra careful
That do we don't build our hopes up too high
Because she's got her own obligations
And so, and so, do I

Me and Mrs.Jones
We got a thing goin'on
We both know that it's wrong
But it's much too strong
To let it go now

Well, it's time for us to be leaving
It hurts so much, it hurts so much inside
Now she'll go her way snd I'll go mine
Tomorrow we'll meet
The same place, the same time

Me and Mrs.Jones
We got a thing goin'on
We both know that it's wrong
But it's much too strong
To let it go now

 

[devonbabe]

Thank you for the days
Those endless days, those sacred days you gave me
Im thinking of the days
I wont forget a single day believe me

I bless the light
I bless the light that lights on you believe me
And though youre gone
Youre with me every single day believe me

Days Ill remember all my life
Days when you cant see wrong from right
You took my life
But then I knew that very soon youd leave me
But its alright
Now Im not frightened of this world believe me

I wish today could be tomorrow
The night is long
It just brings sorrow let it wait

 

[Lesly Cambridge]

My favourite singer-songwriter, Paul Brady - I wish you could hear the music too....


Don't Keep Pretending (Paul Brady)

Here comes the let down
Hearing your voice on the telephone
Wanting you here with me
Knowing I'm going to be on my own
When you say that it won't be tonight
Should I show you I'm hurting?
Would it help me to stand up and fight
Or would that be just the chance you've been waiting for?

Chorus:
Don't keep pretending
That we aren't drifting apart
You're fooling yourself
You know that you're never going to leave him
And if this thing is ending
Please don't keep breaking my heart
If I'm not the one
Then baby please tell me that it's over

You come and cry on my shoulder
You promise me this time you're really through
And I end up believing
That this time I'm goin' to have all of you
Then you say that you think we should wait
Just a little bit longer
Should I tell you it's getting too late
To keep on believing I mean that much to you?

Repeat Chorus

Don't keep pretending
That you really want to let go baby
Is this the ending?
'Cause I can start to feel you slip away
Don't keep pretending
That he doesn't have a hold on you
Is this the ending?
Oh I really got to know the answer baby
Don't keep pretending
That you really want to be with me
Do you really want to be with me?
Whenever I wake up in the night
Your promises echo in my mind
But my heart keeps telling me this could never be
And then I would say it over again
That I would never be your fool
No I can't believe this is happening to me

Minutes Away, Miles Apart (Paul Brady/Dean Grakal/Debbie Peterson)
Hornall Brothers Music/Irving Music/Birdie of My Life/Rawrump Music

Before I met you
My life had not begun
Then your world and my world
Exploded into one
Every thought that you had
And every word you said
Sounded so familiar
Like a poem I'd just read

They say it's written in the sky
That love like ours should never die
You were always right there in my heart
Minutes away or miles apart

But now our world is changing
And we can't find our way
To see love clearly
Gets harder day by day
I come home and I find you
Asleep in bed
Don't think I can't feel
The doubts inside your head

How come it's written in the sky
That love like ours should never die
When all we do is break each others' hearts
Minutes away or miles apart?

Back to our own worlds
It's hard to watch you drifting away

How come it's written in the sky
That love like ours should never die
When all we do is break each others' hearts
Minutes away or miles apart?
Minutes away or miles apart



Nobody Knows (Paul Brady)

Johnny's got high expectations
He's gonna rise
Everyone knows that Johnny is ready
He's ready to fly
Up on the rooftop he turns to the crowd
No one is waiting
No one is there

Chorus

Nobody knows why Elvis threw it all away
Nobody knows what Ruby had to hide
Nobody knows why some of us get broken hearts
And some of us find a world that's clear and bright
You could be packed up and ready
Knowing exactly where to go
How come you miss the connection?
No use in asking...the answer is nobody knows
No use in asking...the answer is nobody knows

Johnny will keep his illusions
What else can he do?
And you can pretend that it would be different
If it happened to you
But up on the rooftop, it's a whole other world
And who could see heaven
And not want to stay?

Repeat Chorus

Dionne Warwick :

In your eyes I see only one - find me the place for us
That's where I belong. There we rise - your glory and mine.
Your pain is over now
I make you shine - still believing:
All the love in the world won't take me away from you

My love is stronger I am what you make me.
All the love in the world won't take you away from me

In all my wonder I forever lay down here with you.
I find when love slips away
reach out for all you can
Before it's too late
there you fly returnin' to me
Out of your darkest nights I stand alone - still believing:
All the love in the world won't take me away from you

My love is stronger I forever lay down here with you.
My love is true
all your darkest nights - I stand alone - still believing:
All the love in the world won't take me away from you

My love is stronger I forever lay down here with you.
All the love in the world won't take me away from you

Oh and the waterboys "whole of the moon" always brings a tear to my eye as it was played at the funeral of a fellow pupil at school

I pictured a rainbow
you held it in your hands
I had flashes
but you saw the plan
I wandered out in the world for years
while you just stayed in your room
I saw the crescent
you saw the whole of the moon

you were there in the turnstiles
with the wind at your heels
you stretched for the starts
and you know how it feels
to reach too high
too far
too soon
you saw the whole of the moon


I was grounded
while you filled the skies
I was dumbfounded by truth
you cut through lies
I saw the rain dirty valley
you saw Brigadoon
I saw the crescent
you saw the whole of the moon


I spoke about wings
you just flew
I wondered I guessed and I tried
you just knew
I sighed
...but you swooned!
I saw the crescent
you saw the whole of the moon


with a torch in your pocket
and the wind at your heels
you climbed on the ladder
and you know how it feels
to get too high
too far too soon
you saw the whole of the moon
the whole of the moon!


Unicorns and cannonballs
palaces and piers
trumpets towers and tenements
wide oceans full of tears
flags rags ferryboats
scimitars and scarves
every precious dream and vision
underneath the stars
you climbed on the ladder
with the wind in your sails
you came like comet
blazing your trail
too high too far too soon
you saw the whole of the moon

We'll Sweep Out The Ashes by Emmylou Harris

We know its wrong to let this fire burn between us
We've got to stop this wild desire in you and in me
So we'll let the flame burn once again until the thrill is gone
Then we'll sweep out the ashes in the morning

We're two people caught up in the flame that has to die out soon
I didnt mean to start this fire and neither did you
So tonight when you hold me tight we'll let the fire burn on
And we'll sweep out the ashes in the morning

Each time when we meet we both agree that its for the last time
But out of your arms I'm out of my mind
So we'll taste the thrill of stolen love tonight until the dawning
And we'll sweep out the ashes in the morning

We're two people caught up in the flame that has to die out soon
I didn't mean to start this fire and neither did you
So tonight when you hold me tight we'll let the fire burn on
And we'll sweep out the ashes in the morning

Yes we'll taste the thrill of stolen love tonight until the dawning
And we'll sweep out the ashes
We'll sweep out the ashes
We'll sweep out the ashes in the morning

All at Once - Whitney Houston

All at once,
I finally took a moment and Im realizing that
Your not coming back
And it finally hit me all at once
All at once,
I started counting teardrops and at least a million fell
My eyes began to swell,
And all my dreams were shattered all at once

Ever since I met you
Youre the only love Ive known
And I cant forget you
Though I must face it all alone
All at once, Im drifting on a lonely sea
Wishing you'd come back to me
And thats all that matters now
All at once, Im drifting on a lonely sea
Holding on to memories
And it hurts me more than you know
So much more than it shows
All at once

All at once,
I looked around and found that you were with another love
In someone elses arms,
And all my dreams were shattered, all at once
All at once
The smile that used to greet me brightened someone elses day
She took your smile away
And left me with just memories, all at once
