I haven't got all the words for this song - it was a very long time ago - but 'If I got on my knees and I pleaded with you ......' It was Please Stay and the group's name has escaped me for now.
Any help would be much appreciated!
It has just come to my mind ....... the Cryin' Shames. Way back in time but great days!!
I'll go with this but tomorrow I'll have changed my mind and then the next day and the next etc etc...
Edward McCain - I'll be:
The strands in your eyes that color them wonderful
Stop me and steal my breath.
And emeralds from mountains thrust towards the sky
Never revealing their depth.
Tell me that we belong together,
Dress it up with the trappings of love.
I'll be captivated,
I'll hang from your lips,
Instead of the gallows of heartache that hang from above.
I'll be your crying shoulder,
I'll be love's suicide
I'll be better when I'm older,
I'll be the greatest fan of your life.
I wish I could eat your cancer when you turn black.
:eek: Please tell me that is not a real song lyric.

My favourite romantic lyrics ever are 'Beeswing' by Richard Thompson. Probably too long for anyone to read, but if anyone does bother, they tell a whole poignant, bitter-sweet, thoughtful life story.
I was nineteen when I came to town
They called it the Summer of Love
They were burning babies, burning flags
The hawks against the doves
I took a job in the steamie
Down on Cauldrum Street
And I fell in love with a laundry girl
Who was working next to me
Oh she was a rare thing, fine as a bee's wing
So fine a breath of wind might blow her away
She was a lost child, oh she was running wild
She said, "As long as there's no price on love, I'll stay
And you wouldn't want me any other way"
Brown hair zig-zag around her face
And a look of half-surprise
Like a fox caught in the headlights
There was animal in her eyes
She said, "Young man, oh can't you see
I'm not the factory kind
If you don't take me out of here
I'll surely lose my mind"
Oh she was a rare thing, fine as a bee's wing
So fine that I might crush her where she lay
She was a lost child, she was running wild
She said, "As long as there's no price on love, I'll stay
And you wouldn't want me any other way"
We busked around the market towns
And picked fruit down in Kent
And we could tinker lamps and pots
And knives wherever we went
And I said that we might settle down
Get a few acres dug
Fire burning in the hearth
and babies on the rug
She said "Oh man, you foolish man
It surely sounds like hell
You might be Lord of half the world
You'll not own me as well"
Oh she was a rare thing, fine as a bee's wing
So fine a breath of wind might blow her away
She was a lost child, oh she was running wild
She said, "As long as there's no price on love, I'll stay
And you wouldn't want me any other way"
We was camping down the Gower one time
The work was pretty good
She thought we shouldn't wait for the frost
And I thought maybe we should
We was drinking more in those days
And tempers reached a pitch
And like a fool I let her run
With the rambling itch
Oh the last I heard she's sleeping rough
Back on the Derby beat
White Horse in her hip pocket
And a wolfhound at her feet
And they say she even married once
A man named Romany Brown
But even a gypsy caravan
Was too much settling down
And they say her flower is faded now
Hard weather and hard booze
But maybe that's just the priceYou pay
for the chains you refuse
Oh she was a rare thing, fine as a bee's wing
And I miss her more than ever words could say
If I could just taste all of her wildness now
If I could hold her in my arms today
Well I wouldn't want her any other way
Don't know if they're the most romantic ever, but there's ac ouple if Missy Higgins songs I adore -
Don't Ever -
Let's take the train to anywhere
I wanna feel the wind in my hair with you.
Let's tell them all, that soon they'll know
How very wrong they were to think we'd never go,
And if you tell me yours I'll tell you mine
And we will clean the cobwebs out of one anothers minds.
Don't ever say you've tried to leave me in this life
Don't ever say you've tried for the last time.
We'll get a house where the trees hang low and pretty little flowers
On our window sill will grow
We'll make friends with the milk man and the butcher Mr. Timms
Will give us discounts when he can,
And if you tell me yours I'll tell you mine,
And we will clean the cobwebs out of one anothers minds.
Don't ever say you've tried to leave me in this life
Don't ever say you've tried for the last time
LA DI DA DI DA...
Don't ever say you've tried to leave me in this life
Don't ever say you've tried to leave me in this life
Don't ever say you've tried for the last time...
Nightminds -
Just lay it all down. Put your face into my neck and let it fall out.
I know
I know
I know.
I knew before you got home.
This world you're in now,
It doesn't have to be alone,
I'll get there somehow, 'cos
I know I know I know
When, even springtime feels cold.
But I will learn to breathe this ugliness you see,
So we can both be there and we can both share the dark.
And in our honesty, together we will rise,
Out of our nightminds, and into the light
At the end of the fight...
You were blessed by a different kind of inner view: it's all magnified.
The highs would make you fly, and the lows make you want to die.
And I was once there, hanging from that very ledge where you are standing.
So I know
I know
I know,
It's easier to let go.
But I will learn to breathe this ugliness you see,
So we can both be there and we can both share the dark.
And in our honesty, together we will rise out of our nightminds
And into the light at the end of the fight.
...and in our honesty, together we will rise out of our nightminds
And into the light... at the end of the fight...
I'll protect you from the hooded claw Keep the vampires from your door
I feels like fire I'm so in love with you Dreams are like Angels They keep bad at bay, bad at bay Love is the light Scaring darkness away, yeah
I'm so in love with you Purge the soul Make love your goal
The power of love A force from above Cleaning my soul Flame on burn desire Love with tongues of fire Purge the soul Make love your goal
I'll protect you from the hooded claw Keep the vampires from your door When the chips are down, I'll be around With my undying
Death-defying love from you envy will hurt itself Let yourself be beautiful Sparkling love, flowers and pearls and pretty girls Love is like an energy, rushin', rushin' inside of me, hey
The power of love A force from above Cleaning my soul Flame on burn desire Love with tongues of fire Purge the soul Make love your goal
This time we go sublime Lovers entwine-divine divine Love is danger, love is pleasure Love is pure, the only treasure
I'm so in love with you Purge the soul Make love your goal
The power of love A force from above Cleaning my soul
The power of love A force from above A sky-scraping dove Flame on burn desire Love with tongues of fire Purge the soul Make love your goal
I'll protect you from the hooded claw Keep the vampires from your door
"What Are You Doing the Rest of Your Life?"
lyrics written by Alan Bergman and Marilyn Bergman,music written by Michel Legrand
What are you doing the rest of your life?
North and south and east and west of your life?
I have only one request of your life
That you spend it all with me.
All the seasons and the times of your days.
All the nickels and the dimes of your days.
Let the reasons and the rhymes of your days.
All begin and end with me.
I want to see your face,
In every kind of light,
In fields of gold and
Forests of the night;
And when you stand before
The candles on a cake.
Oh let me be the one to hear
The silent wish you make.
Those tomorrows waiting deep in your eyes
In the world of love you keep in your eyes,
Ill awaken what's asleep in your eyes,
It may take a kiss or two..
Through all of my life..
Summer, winter, spring and fall of my life,
All I ever will recall of my life
Is all of my life with you.
So you can keep your belief in whatever
I'll wear my cynicism like a tattoo
While poets try to engineer definitions of love
You know all I can think of is you
And I can't wait to see you on Sunday
Far from the traffic and the smoke and the noise
For this evening I will play back every message that you sent
And I will sleep to the sound of your voice
Now I don't like using words like forever
But I will love you til the end of today
And in the morning when I remember everything that you are
I know I'll fall for you over again
Fortunately you have
Someone who relies on you
We started out as friends
But the thought of you just caves me in
The symptoms are so deep
It is much too late to turn away
We started out as friends
Sign your name
Across my heart
I want you to be my baby
Sign your name
Across my heart
I want you to be my lady
Time I'm sure will bring
Disappointments in so many things
It seems to be the way
When you�re gambling cards on love you play
I'd rather be in Hell with you baby
Than in cool Heaven
It seems to be the way
Sign your name
Across my heart
I want you to be my baby
Sign your name
Across my heart
I want you to be my lady
Birds never look into the sun
Before the day is gone
But oh the light shines brighter
On a peaceful day
Stranger blue leave us alone
We don't want to deal with you
We'll shed our stains showering
In the room that makes the rain
All alone with you
Makes the butterflies in me arise
Slowly we make love
And the Earth rotates
To our dictates
Slowly we make love
Sign your name
Across my heart
I want you to be my baby
Sign your name
Across my heart
I want you to be my lady
I got a barmaid from St Helens in the back of my Vauxhall Viva,
She had massive melons and I wanted to bang her beaver,
She had real bad breath and a touch of the pox,
But I ripped off my bags and ma sweaty socks,
And I rattled my 'tatoes against her dirt box.
She said I was good looking
And I looked a bit like George Michael,
But she didn't want a f****g, she were on the menstrual cycle....
...and so on.
Thank god, they don't write them like that anymore

If that's not romance... Lol
I ain't no vision, I am the man
Who loves you inside and out
Backwards and forwards with
My heart hanging out
I love no other way
:eek::eek::eek::eek: Theyre lyrics????
Totally agree!!

"put your a** upon my face, i like the way your p***y tastes"
how romantic is THAT?....
nowt wrong with the beegees (early)
'to love somebody'... "you dont know what its like (rpt) to love somebody, to love somebody, the way i love you"
together with the music is to me extremely emotional... or sad... lol..
Nirvana, Heart Shaped Box. I think there's something tremendously romantic about it. Kurt saying to Courtney, I would die to let you live.
At least I think that was what it was about...
God bless you always!!!
Holly
I think he's saying he would take the cancer from her to save her ultimately dying himself. in other words dying to let her live that old cliche
God bless you always!!!
Holly
