Here’s some of another Savatage song from teh same ablum “Streets”

Somewhere in Time:

"So what can I tell you
If life’s the length of this play
Perhaps God gave the answers
To those with nothing to say

The years are forgiven
If God’s forgiving and kind
Perhaps we’ll all find the answers
Somewhere in time
Somewhere in time

I’ve been changing
Redefining
All the things I thought I knew
So long ago
When I was flying
Through the years that seem so far away

In the back of a reason
In the back of my mind
Where I’ve piled up the seasons
That I’ve traded for time

I’ve been grasping at rainbows
Hanging on till the end
But the rain is so real lord
And the rainbows pretend
The rainbows pretend"
 
Set Me As A Seal by Matt Maher…

‘I looked for you, the one my heart loves,
I looked for you, and did not find you.
I searched through the night, until I rested in your sight,
Now I will never let you go.’

Jesus is coming for us, and we are looking for him… 😃
 
**Everybody Knows Lyrics **

Everybody knows that the dice are loaded
Everybody rolls with their fingers crossed
Everybody knows that the war is over
Everybody knows the good guys lost
Everybody knows the fight was fixed
The poor stay poor, the rich get rich
That’s how it goes
Everybody knows

Everybody knows that the boat is leaking
Everybody knows that the captain lied
Everybody got this broken feeling
Like their father or their dog just died

Everybody talking to their pockets
Everybody wants a box of chocolates
And a long stem rose
Everybody knows

Everybody knows that you love me baby
Everybody knows that you really do
Everybody knows that you’ve been faithful
Ah give or take a night or two

Everybody knows you’ve been discreet
But there were so many people you just had to meet
Without your clothes
And everybody knows

Everybody knows, everybody knows
That’s how it goes
Everybody knows…

And everybody knows that it’s now or never
Everybody knows that it’s me or you
And everybody knows that you live forever
Ah when you’ve done a line or two
Everybody knows the deal is rotten
Old Black Joe’s still pickin’ cotton
For your ribbons and bows
And everybody knows

And everybody knows that the Plague is coming
Everybody knows that it’s moving fast
Everybody knows that the naked man and woman
Are just a shining artifact of the past
Everybody knows the scene is dead
But there’s gonna be a meter on your bed
That will disclose
What everybody knows

And everybody knows that you’re in trouble
Everybody knows what you’ve been through
From the bloody cross on top of Calvary
To the beach of Malibu
Everybody knows it’s coming apart
Take one last look at this Sacred Heart
Before it blows
And everybody knows

Everybody knows, everybody knows
That’s how it goes
Everybody knows

Oh everybody knows, everybody knows
That’s how it goes
Everybody knows…

Leonard Cohen
 
Life in Mono by Mono

The stranger sang a theme
From someone else’s dream
The leaves began to fall
And no one spoke at all
But I can’t seem to recall
When you came along
Ingénue

Ingénue
I just don’t know what to do

The tree-lined avenue
Begins to fade from view
Drowning past regretsIn tea and cigarettes
But I can’t seem to forget
When you came along
Ingénue

Ingénue
I just don’t know what to do

Ingénue
I just don’t know what to do
 
I see the New Coldplay album - X&Y has a track with the lyric “My Song is Love Unkown”!!
 
“To Know You” - Nichole Nordeman

It’s well past midnight
And I’m awake with questions that won’t
Wait for daylight
Separating fact from my imaginary fiction
On this shelf of my conviction
I need to find a place
Where You and I come face to face

Thomas needed
Proof that You had really risen
Undefeated
When he placed his fingers
Where the nails once broke Your skin
Did his faith finally begin?
I’ve lied if I’ve denied
The common ground I’ve shared with him

And I, I really want to know You
I want to make each day
A different way that I can show You how
I really want to love You
Be patient with my doubt
I’m just tryin’ to figure out Your will
And I really want to know You still

Nicodemus
Could not understand how You could
Truly free us
He struggled with the image
Of a grown man born again
We might have been good friends
Cuz sometimes I still question, too
How easily we come to You

No more campin’ on the porch of indecision
No more sleepin’ under stars of apathy
And it might be easier to dream
But dreamin’s not for me
 
How about…

“When I find myself in times of trouble / Mother Mary comes to me / Speaking words of wisdom / Let it be / And in my hour of darkness she is standing right infront of me / Speaking words of wisdom / Let it be…”

It was probably my first introduction to anything Catholic. Well, at least how I took it.
 
Heard this yesterday for the first time in a loooong time:

*Holding Back The Years *by Simply Red

Holding back the years,
Thinking of the fear I’ve had so long.
When somebody hears,
Listen to the fear that’s gone.
Strangled by the wishes of pater,
Hoping for the arms of mater,
Get to meet her sooner or later,

Holding back the years,
Chance for me to escape from all I know.
Holding back the tears,
Cause nothing here has grown.
I’ve wasted all my tears,
Wasted all those years.
Nothing had the chance to be good,
Nothing ever could, yeah.

I’ll keep holding on,
I’ll keep holding on,
I’ll keep holding on,
I’ll keep holding on.
So tight.

I’ve wasted all my tears,
Wasted all those years.
And nothing had the chance to be good,
Cause nothing ever could, yeah.

I’ll keep holding on,
I’ll keep holding on,
I’ll keep holding on,
I’ll keep holding on
So tight.

That’s all I have today
It’s all I have to say.
