Songs for the wind and stars

If I Could - Phish

Take me to another place, she said
Take me to another time
Run with me across the oceans
Float me on a silver cloud

If I could I would, but I don't know how
If I could I would, but I don't know how
If I could I would and I'd take you now

Do What You Have To Do - Sarah MacLachlan

...

And I have the sense to recognize that I don't know how to let you go
every moment marked with apparitions of your soul
I'm ever swiftly moving trying to escape this desire
the yearning to be near you I do what I have to do
the yearning to be near you I do what I have to do
but I have the sense to recognize that I don't know how to let you go
I don't know how to let you go

...

I know I can't be with you I do what I have to do
I know I can't be with you I do what I have to do
and I have sense to recognize
but I don't know how to let you go
I don't know how to let you go
I don't know how to let you go

I Am In Love With You - Imogen Heap

I am in love with you
I am in love with you baby
I am in love with you yeah
Live for the moment

Right now another please
Right now another please
Just like that aaah
Like that, another one babe
And kiss me for longer

Oh hey baby don't you run away
Come here and finish what you started

I am in love with you
I am in love with you baby
I am in love with you yeah
At least for the moment

Split second and it's all in smoke yeah
So wet this fire dry

No don't get yourself in situations
No don't get yourself in situations
Darling that you can't handle

No I don't mind if you forget yourself
No I don't mind did you forget yourself darling?

Come on into my bed with me
You know you want to

I'm not in love with you
I'm not in love with you baby
I'm not in love with you yeah
Not anymore


Fly Away - Poe

It makes sense that it should happen this way.
That the sky should break,and the earth should shake.
As if to say, “Sure it all matters, but in such an unimportant way.”
As if to say, “Fly away, sweet bird of prey, fly, fly away.”
Nothing can stand in your way, sweet bird
If you knew the words I know you'd say, “Fly, fly away.”

It makes sense that it should hurt in this way.
That my heart should break, and my hands should shake.
As if to say, “Sure, it don't matter, except in the most important way.”
As if to say, “Fly away, sweet bird of prey, fly, fly away.”
I won't stand in your way, sweet bird
If you knew the words, I know that you'd say, “fly away.”

It makes sense that it should feel this way.
That you slowly fade, yet still remain.
As if to say, “Everything matters in such an invisible way.”
As if to say, “It's okay, fly away.”

Think of Me - Sarah Brightman

Think of me, think of me fondly
When we say goodbye
Remember me once in a while
Promise me you’ll try

When you find that once again you long
To take your heart back and be free
If you ever find a moment
Spare a thought for me

...

We never said our love was ever green
Or as unchanging as the sea
but please promise me
that sometimes you will think of me.
