Music for Lonely Evenings

Mar 15, 2010 22:42


Following this morning's post, here are a couple more songs that bring tears to my eyes. Could it be a lament for days gone by? (you can include Dirty Vegas here) Beauty. Hope. Longing. Who knows? Enjoy. Here, have a tissue.

David Byrne & Brian Eno - "Strange Overtones"

I wake up every morning
I hear your feet on the stairs
You're in the next apartment
I hear you singing over there

This groove is out of fashion
These beats are 20 years old
I saw you lend a hand to
The ones out standing in the cold

Strange Overtones in the music you are playing
I'll harmonize
It is strong and you are tough
But a heart is not enough

Put on your socks and mittens
It's getting colder tonight
A snowball in my kitchen
I watched it melt before my eyes

Your song still needs a chorus
I know you'll figure it out
The rising of the verses
A change of key will let you out

Strange overtones though they�re slightly out of fashion
I'll harmonize
I see the music in your face
That your words cannot explain

Strange Overtones in the music you are playing
We're not alone
It is strong and you are tough
But a heart is not enough

Teddybears Sthlm feat. Iggy Pop - "Punkrocker"

You see me drivin' down the street, I'm just not looking good
I got both hands of the wheel, I got you runnin'
I'm listening to music you can't hear
I got pretty music in my ear

Cos I'm a punkrocker, yes I am
Well I'm a punkrocker, yes I am

I see you standing in the street, and you can't stay on your feet
And your walking in your sleep, right across the street
You can hear me laughing to myself
You can hear the music in my head

Cos I'm a punkrocker, yes I am
Well I'm a punkrocker, yes I am

You see me drivin' down the street, I'm just not looking good
You see me drivin' in my car, I'm drivin' in my sleep
I'm listening to music you can't hear
I got pretty music in my ear

Cos I'm a punkrocker, yes I am
Well I'm a punkrocker, yes I am
