lyrics in music

lyrics are really interesting part of the song. ask Drew Barrymore of Music and Lyrics. hehehe! i have to admit melody ang unang nagcacatch ng attention ko sa isang song, but when i really really like the artist/melody, i take time to listen and digest (naks) the lyrics...my friend maila is a huge fan of Indigo Girls. 2 songs lang yata alam ko from them (power of two and Galileo). she made me listen to some of their songs and surprisingly, i liked them, kahit na nagno-nose bleed ako sa lalim ng words nila.
on our way to Baguio 2 weeks ago, habang binabaybay namin ang kahabaan ng Tarlac ay nakikinig kami sa 3 albums ng Imago at Indigo Girls. so malamang dahil wala kaming ibang gagawin,kaya nagnilay nilay na lang kami sa bawat words ng song.so here are some of their "interesting" lyrics

"Oh, you precious kid I have a motion just for you.A warrior, barefoot and dancing With tears of pain and beauty All of this is true for you" -Keeper of my Heart (Indigo Girls)

"I wanted everything to feed me. About as full as I got was of myself. And the upper echalons of mediocrityafter the battle and we're still around. Everything once up in the air has settled down. Sweep the ashes let the silence find us. A moment of peace is worth every war behind us.You and me of the 10,000 wars." -You and Me of the 10,000 Wars (Indigo Girls)

"Cause last night he got a visit from the Ghost of Corporate FutureThe ghost said, "Take off both your shoesWhatever chances you get Especially when they're wet." -Ghost of the Corporate Future (Regina Spektor)

"While you occupy me I command my dreams each dayTo bring you in me even thinly as the morning chases you
away. I half believe if I just picture us we will come true. Wishful thinking or my dreams sinking half depends on you " -You've Got to Show (Indigo Girls) -this song is really special for me kasi nakakakilig talaga yung buong song

"And I don't know How you show Such gentle disregard. For the ugly in me, That I see That for so long, I took so hard. And I truly believe That you see the best in me. I'm in love We all love, And that thought Sets me free" -Free In You (Indigo Girls)
"We all have minced our words Even exchanged euphemisms Then we say we must go for truth We have an ear for envy Never a tongue for praise Can't we have it otherwise " -Otherwise (Imago)

"After all that we've been through I could not see giving up Despite the picture of our coffee growing colder in the cups" -I Believe in Love (Indigo Girls)

"I'm gonna rack my mind one last time until I cannot thinkI'm gonna dip into your memory and take a good stiff drinkAnd when I'm drunk on the last drop of sadness about how
we went wrongI'm gonna play this songMake some coffee black and strongGive thanks for healing timeAnd finally make up my mind" - Last Tears (Indigo Girls)

"...But this poverty is our greatest gift The weightlessness of us as things around begin to shift
Remember everything I told you, keep it in your heart like a stone And when the winds have blown things round and back again What was once your pain will be your home Everything in its own time Everything in its own time " - Everything in Its Own Time (Indigo Girls)
