I remember that time you told me, you said "Love is touching souls." Surely you touched mine 'Cause part of you pours out of me In these lines from time to time. You're in my blood like holy wine, You taste so bitter and so sweet.
I remember that time you told me, you said""Love is touching souls."" Surely you touched mine 'Cause part of you pours out of me In these lines from time to time. You're in my blood like holy wine, You taste so bitter and so sweet.
During times like these, the wise are influential.
In terms of fiction, I'd rather go out and have a good time than read a book about someone having a good or bad time.
And the seasons they go 'round and 'round And the painted ponies go up and down We're captive on the carousel of time We can't return we can only look behind From where we came And go round and round and round In the circle game.
Everyone I know has attention deficit, and they say it with great pride. It's a bad time to be right.
I want to have fun. I want to shine like the sun. I want to be the one that you want to see. I want to knit you a sweater. I want to write you a love letter. I want to make you feel better. I want to make you feel free.
And the seasons, they go round and round,/ And the painted ponies go up and down./ We're captive on the carousel of time.
I've looked at life from both sides now/ From win and lose and still somehow/ It's life's illusions I recall/ I really don't know life at all.
Sorrow is easy to express and so hard to tell.
Tears and fears and feeling proud to say 'I love you' right out loud.
You're in my blood like holy wine, You taste so bitter and so sweet. I could drink a case of you darling Still I'd be on my feet. I would still be on my feet.
Say, won't you stay; we'll put on the day and we'll talk in present tenses
People think it's being remodeled, ... I tell them, and they say, 'What? What do you mean they're tearing down the old high-school building?'
