Boats and Birds by Gregory and the Hawk

If you be my star,
i`ll be your sky.
You can hide underneath me
and come out at night.
When I turn jet black,
and you show of your light.
I live to let you shine.
I live to let you shine.

You can sky rocket away from me.
And never come back if you,
find another galaxy.
Far from here,
where there`s more room to fly.
Just leave me your stardust
to remember you by.

If you'll be my boat,
i'll be your sea.
A depth of pure blue just to probe curiosity.
Ebbing and flowing,
and pushed by a breeze.
I live to make you free.
I live to make you free.

But you can set sail to the west,
if you want to.
And past the horizon,
`till I can't even see you.
Far from here,
where the beaches are wide.
Just leave me your wake
to remember you by.

If you be my star,
i`ll be your sky.
You can hide underneath me
and come out at night.
When I turn jet black,
and you show off your light.
I live to let you shine.
I live to let you shine.

But you can sky rocket away from me,
and never come back if you,
find another galaxy.
Far from here,
where there`s more room to fly.
Just leave me your stardust
to remember you by.

Stardust to remember you by.

Dusk and Summer by Dashboard Confessional

She smiled in a big way, the way a girl like that smiles
When the world is hers and she held your eyes
Out in the breezeway down by the shore in the lazy summer
And she pulled you in, and she bit your lip, and she made you hers
She looked deep into you as you lay together quiet in the grasp of dusk and summer
But you've already lost
When you only had barely enough to hang on
And she combed your hair, and she kissed your teeth
And she made you better than you'd been before
She told you bad things you wished you could change in the lazy summer
And she told you, laughing down to her core, so she would not cry as she lay in your lap
She said "nobody here can live forever, quiet in the grasp of dusk and summer"
But you've already lost
When you only had barely enough to hang on
She said, "no one is alone the way you are alone"
And you held her looser than you would have if you ever could have known
Some things tie your life together, slender threads and things to treasure
Days like that should last and last and last
But you've already lost
When you only had barely enough of her to hang on

Say Hey by Michael Franti

This one goes out to you and yours worldwide
I say hey I'll be gone today
But I'll be back all around the way
It seems like everywhere I go
The more I see, the less I know
But I know one thing
That I love you
I love you, I love you, I love you
I’ve been a lot of places all around the way
I’ve seen a lot joy and I’ve seen a lot of pain
but I don’t want to write a love song for the world,
I just want to write a song about a boy and a girl
Junkies on the corner always calling my name
And the kids on the corner playing ghetto games
When I saw you getting down well I hoped it was you
And when I looked into your eyes I knew it was true
I say hey, I'll be gone today
But I'll be back all around the way
It seems like everywhere I go
The more I see, the less I know
But I know one thing
That I love you
I love you, I love you, I love you
Now I’m not a highly metaphysical man
But I know when the stars are aligned you can
bump into person in the middle of the road
look into their eyes and you suddenly know
Rocking in the dance hall moving with you
Dancing in the night in the middle of June
My momma told me don’t lose you
‘cause the best luck I had was you
I said hey I'll be gone today
But I'll be back all around the way
It seems like everywhere I go
The more I see the less I know
But I know one thing
That I love you
I love you, I love you, I love you
And I said rocking in the dance hall moving with you
I said Hey momma hey momma close to you
Rocking in the dance hall moving with you
I said hey papa, hey papa close to you
Rocking in the dance hall moving with you
I said Hey Momma close to you
Rocking in the dance hall moving with you I said
hey momma, hey momma, hey momma, hey momma
hey momma, hey momma, hey momma, hey momma
what you gonna do?
My momma told me don’t lose you
Cause the best luck I had was you
And I know one thing that I love you
I said I'll be gone today
but I’ll be back all around the way
It seems like everywhere I go
The more I see, the less I know
I said I'll be gone today
but I’ll be back all around the way
It seems like everywhere I go
The more I see the less I know
But I know one thing that I love you
I love you, I love you, I love you
I love you, I love you, I love you
I love you, I love you, I love you

Blankest Year by Nada Surf

Oh fuck it
I'm going to have a party
Oh fuck it
I'm going to have a party
I had the blankest year
I saw life turn into a tv show
It Was Totally Weird
The person I knew
I didn't really know
Time don't move
We're the only ones who do
Bending reason
Cause it's all we hold on to
I had the blankest year
I saw life turn into a tv show
It Was Totally Weird
The person I knew
I didn't really know
And now it's lonely
Thank god the band's doing well
But you don't own me
I'd like to return this spell
It's not my size
Your lies are so much bigger
Than my lies
And your ties are made of things
That shouldn't make ties
Oh fuck it (fuck it)
I'm going to have a party
Oh fuck it (fuck it)
I'm going to have a party
Oh fuck it
I'm going to have a party

Another Set of Quotes

Find the person that loves you for exactly who you are. Good mood, bad mood, ugly, pretty, handsome. The right person is still going to think the sun shines out of your ass. That’s the kind of person worth sticking with.
Juno
Love doesn't make the world go round. Love is what makes the ride worthwhile.
Franklin P. Jones
Nothing's as big as your first love.
Tagline for Little Manhattan
"Suddenly, I knew what I had to do. Love isn't about ridiculous little words. Love is about grand gestures. Love is about airplanes pulling banners over stadiums, proposals on jumbo-trons, giant words in sky writing. Love is about going that extra mile even if it hurts, letting it all hang out there. Love is about finding courage inside of you that you didn't even know was there."
Little Manhattan
When fishing for love, bait with your heart not your mind.
Mark Twain
You know you’re in love when you can’t fall asleep because reality is finally better than your dreams.
Dr. Seuss
I’m here, and I love you. I have always loved you, and I will always love you. I was thinking of you, seeing your face in my mind, every second that I was away. When I told you that I didn’t love you, it was the very blackest kind of blasphemy.
New Moon
Boys frustrate me. I hate all their indirect messages, I hate game playing. Do you like me or don't you? Just tell me so I can get over you.
Kirsten Dunst
Love must be as much a light, as it is a flame.
Henry David Thoreau

One Day by Matisyahu

Sometimes I lay
Under the moon
And thank God I'm breathing
Then I pray
Don't take me soon
Cause I'm here for a reason
Sometimes in my tears I drown
But I never let it get me down
So when negativity surrounds
I know some day it'll all turn around because
All my live I've been waiting for
I've been praying for
For the people to say
That we dont wanna fight no more
They'll be no more wars
And our children will play
It's not about
Win or lose
Because we all lose
When they feed on the souls of the innocent
Blood drenched pavement
Keep on moving though the waters stay raging
In this maze you can lose your way

It might drive you crazy but dont let it faze you no way
Sometimes in my tears I drown
But I never let it get me down
So when negativity surrounds
I know some day it'll all turn around because
All my live I've been waiting for
I've been praying for
For the people to say
That we dont wanna fight no more
They'll be no more wars
And our children will play

One day this all will change
Treat people the same
Stop with the violence
Down the hate
One day we'll all be free
And proud to be
Under the same sun
Singing songs of freedom like
All my live I've been waiting for
I've been praying for
For the people to say
That we don't wanna fight no more
They'll be no more wars
And our children will play

One Day - Matisyahu
