---a question about the lyrics thread

[B]

You would do it anyway!?  8O

I didn't know anyone could hear me! 8O  :oops:

I am with you on those changes, though.

Me too.

I hear everything! MWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  :twisted:  :twisted:  :twisted:

and your changes are right on, I listened, etc. :wink:

[KULPDOGG]

The ones Katia posted are so clear!  Here are some things I can hear for sure now:

I only wanna do some good
To dumb to know if I could
And I just wanna feel the daze I'm in

And the tape I made you (not "made for you")
Hope you think of me when it plays through
I feel kind of sad now that it's done

It's sad that you can be
So lovely, yet so wrong

We climb Tibetan mountains (not "the")
Where we can barely breathe (I believe it's present-tense)

I am definite on all of these!  And if I'm not, I'll boil Vanessa's socks and drink the broth! :razz:
I know, it doesn't count if I would do it anyway.

i still say its "And only wanna do some good"
you're right on the too dumb to know & daze part.
 

theres no "feel" in that line, so it cant be "i feel kind of sad now that its done"

It's sad that you can be
i still think its seem, i just dont hear "be"

and you're totally right on the 'put your hands on me' stuff.

[kev222]

But darlin' oh, if I could (This line makes no sense.  Any suggestions?)

How about

I only wanna do some good
Just gotta know, if I could

but i don't know, if i could?

These mpgs are way clearer! I think we're both wrong on that line. Still open IMHO.

But how about this? Fits well contextually.

And if I tell you my truth, well, am I getting through?
And it just seems I should confess
and who am i to pretend?

That line is so owned.

[kev222]

I only wanna do some good
To dumb to know, if I could

Edit: Oops Kulp already caught that one. Ignore me

I'm certain that's right. These mpgs are awesome quality What were they recorded with?

[angelheart56]

ummm a Sony Mavica

B... as things get worked out are you doing the updates?

[kev222]

I'm taking another crack at the songs now that we have the better audio. For some reason I'm finding transcribing lyrics far more fun that the other things I should be doing.

Put Yor Hands On Me
===============

I lie awake at night and for you, I pray
we crossed the deepest ocean
to go across the sea
and if you dont believe me
just put your hands on me

The summer radiates with you
we've barely met
and still i cross the street to your door

Some day when our stories are told
They'll tell of a love like this
When our descendents are all growing old
A thousand years I'll be singing (Or maybe "years'll, but I'm sure it's not "we'll". Not that it matters)
na na na na na na na na na


Also. This isn't a definite suggestion. But let me throw this into the mix.

we crossed the deepest ocean
cargo across the sea
and if you dont believe me
just put your hands on me

Kind of stupid, but it does sound like it. Kulp might be right about the accent and "to go" though. But then again zurielshimon was right that "to go" is a bit nonsensical. Meh.

I've been updating throughout the afternoon, so I'm already on it  :wink:.

[kev222]

I feel kind of sad now that it's done

theres no "feel" in that line, so it cant be "i feel kind of sad now that its done"

There's definitely a "feel" in there. I think there's no "I"

Feel kind of sad now that it's done.

[kev222]

Nothing worth bothering with, but...

The One
======

And the tape I made you
Hope you think of me when it plays through
Feel kind of sad now that it's done

Summer goes and we have grown
We have our friends, live on our own
Still, I'm not the girl you want me to be

And now you look at me
And see what i've known for so long
It's sad that you could be
So lovely, yet so wrong

[kev222]

This Time
=======

Your words circle in my head
They weigh so heavy on my chest
And I'm crushed by your expectation

And did i say too much again
I'm just a girl in a panic
And if i tell you my truth, what am I getting through?
And it just seems I should confess
and who am i to pretend?

That's it. Apart from a lot of annoying 'I's, 'a's, 'and's, etc. I think we've got them basically done.

[ILoveHanson]

maybe im crazy, but i totally hear "i KNEW i'd push too hard"

[KULPDOGG]

ok, things in bold are what I changed from my last posting of the lyrics


The One
---------------
Holiday, and I've come home
Hope to see this boy I know
I can't wait for us to be alone

Flippin' through the radio
We sing along to the indie show
The songs they play mean more than I can say

And the tape I made you
Hope you think of me when it plays through
Feel kind of sad now that it's done

You think my time's for free
In all the ways you say to me
"Sweet virgin dove lets wait and see"

But you're always a golden boy
And I'm the girl that you enjoy
My parents say "isn't he a gifted son?"

Time is always passin' by
And still I have to wonder why
You can't come and tell me I'm the one

Summer goes and we have grown
We have our friends, live on our own
Still, I'm not the girl you wanted me to be

Your gravity can bend the time
Funny how you always blanked your mind
But this whole thing is crushing me

Well you're always a golden boy
In this girl's heart that you destroy
You smile at me and then you have your fun

Time is always passin' by
Still I give you another try
And hope that you will see
That i'm the one

You say you're scared
To get too close
Come let's see how it goes
I see him now, at the show
7th in the 7th row

And now you look at me
And see what I've known for so long
I'm sad that you could be
So lovely, yet so wrong

Came to say, that i've moved
I see your face, you don't approve
I guess you could say that I'm already gone

Well you'll always be a golden boy
I'm the summer girl that you enjoy
Some melodys are best left un--

I feel the time pass away
But in my songs you'll aways stay
Don't need for you to tell me I'm the one
Oh, no, no, don't need for you to tell me
I'm the one
You'll never know that I was
The one

---------------------------------------------------------

Put Your Hands On Me
------------------

I first saw you at the video exchange
I know my heart and it will never change
This temp work would be alright if you'd call me
You call me

I lie awake at night, and for you, I pray
We crossed the deepest oceans
To go across the sea
And if you dont believe me
Just put your hands on me

And all the constellations shine down on you and me
And if you dont believe me
Just put your hands on me, oh no

The summer radiates with you
We've barely met
And still I cross the street to your door

we crossed the deepest oceans
To go across the sea
And if you dont believe me
Just put your hands on me

And all the constellations shine down on you and me
And if you dont believe me
Just put your hands on me

Some day when our stories are told
They'll tell of a love like this
When our descendents are all growing old
A thousand years'll be singing
na na na na na na na na na

We climbed Tibetan mountains
Where we can barely breathe
I see the Dalai Lama
I feel him blessing me

And all the constellations shine down on you and me
And if you dont believe me
Just put your hands on me
na na na na na, no
Your hands on me
na na na na na na, no
I first saw you at the video exchange
-------------------------------------------------------

This Time
----------------------

It's 4 AM, and I'm wide awake
Waiting for my thoughts to fade
And I flick a ring of all of my mistakes

And as the light starts creeping in
I slowly feel the day i'm missin'
But I wouldn't even know where to begin

I knew I pushed too hard, I fall too fast
The moment never seems to last
And will I stop for long enough to know
That everybody burns
And when it starts to hurt
I cry
I feel it in my veins
I just can't walk away
This time

Your words circle in my head
Now weigh so heavy on my chest
And I'm crushed by your expectation

And only wanna do some good
Too dumb to know if I could
And I just wanna feel the daze I'm in

I knew I pushed too hard, then hard enough
Why can't I keep my big mouth shut
And do we lead the life that we should
Cause everybody burns
And when it starts to hurt
I cry
I feel it in my veins
I just can't walk away
This time

And did I say too much again
I'm just a girl in a panic
And if I tell you my truth, well, am I getting through?
And he just deemed I should confess
And who am I to pretend?
And this is more than I can carry

Cause everybody burns
And when it starts to hurt
I cry
I feel it in my veins
I just cant walk away
This time

I hold my head up high
I know I'll be alright this time
ah, ah, ah
ah, ah, ah

Its 4 AM and I'm wide awake
Waiting for my thoughts to fade
And its times like these I see your fate


everyone agree? something we still need to go over?
