This land is your land, This land is my land, From California to the New York islands, From the redwood forests to the Gulf Stream waters, This land was made for you and me.

If I, I get to know your name Well if I, could trace your private number, baby
All I know is that to me You look like you're lots of fun Open up your lovin' arms I want some, want some
I set my sights on you (And no one else will do) And I, I've got to have my way now, baby
All I know is that to me You look like you're having fun Open up your lovin' arms Watch out here I come
Chorus:
You spin me right round, baby Right round like a record, baby Right round round round You spin me right round, baby Right round like a record, baby Right round round round
--You spin me, Dead or Alive

If I could save time in a bottle The first thing that I’d like to do Is to save every day Till eternity passes away Just to spend them with you
If I could make days last forever If words could make wishes come true I’d save every day like a treasure and then, Again, I would spend them with you
But there never seems to be enough time To do the things you want to do Once you find them I’ve looked around enough to know That you’re the one I want to go Through time with
If I had a box just for wishes And dreams that had never come true The box would be empty Except for the memory Of how they were answered by you
But there never seems to be enough time To do the things you want to do Once you find them I’ve looked around enough to know That you’re the one I want to go Through time with
--Time in a Bottle, Jim Croce

LOL Megan and I posted the same song at almost exactly the same time.... love it!!
And:
Daylight See the dew on the sunflower And a rose that is fading Roses whither away Like the sunflower I yearn to turn my face to the dawn I am waiting for the day . . .
Midnight Not a sound from the pavement Has the moon lost her memory? She is smiling alone In the lamplight The withered leaves collect at my feet And the wind begins to moan
Memory All alone in the moonlight I can smile at the old days I was beautiful then I remember the time I knew what happiness was Let the memory live again
Every streetlamp Seems to beat a fatalistic warning Someone mutters And the streetlamp gutters And soon it will be morning
Daylight I must wait for the sunrise I must think of a new life And I musn't give in When the dawn comes Tonight will be a memory too And a new day will begin
Burnt out ends of smoky days The stale cold smell of morning The streetlamp dies, another night is over Another day is dawning
Touch me It's so easy to leave me All alone with the memory Of my days in the sun If you touch me You'll understand what happiness is

And even if her plane crashes tonight she'll find someway to dissappoint me By not burning in the wreckage Or drowning at the bottom of the sea Jess I still taste you thus reserve my right to hate you And all this empty space that you create does Nothing for my flawless sense of style

Americans, let's face it: We've been a spoiled country for a long time. Do you know what the number one health risk in America is? Obesity. They say we're in the middle of an obesity epidemic. An epidemic, like it's polio. Like we'll be telling our grand kids about it one day. The Great Obesity Epidemic of 2004. "How'd you get through it grandpa?" "Oh, it was horrible Johnny, there was cheesecake and pork chops everywhere."

Oh, beautiful for spacious skies, For amber waves of grain, For purple mountain majesties Above the fruited plain! America! America! God shed his grace on thee, And crown thy good with brotherhood From sea to shining sea.
Oh, beautiful for pilgrim feet, Whose stern, impassioned stress A thoroughfare of freedom beat Across the wilderness! America! America! God mend thine ev'ry flaw, Confirm thy soul in self-control, Thy liberty in law.
Oh, beautiful for heroes proved In liberating strife, Who more than self their country loved, And mercy more than life! America! America! May God thy gold refine, Till all success be nobleness, And ev'ry gain divine.
Oh, beautiful for patriot dream That sees beyond the years Thine alabaster cities gleam, Undimmed by human tears! America! America! God shed his grace on thee, And crown thy good with brotherhood From sea to shining sea.

I'm sorry Why should I say I'm sorry? I hurt you You know you hurt me too, But you get lost inside your tears And there is nothing I can do 'Cause I get lost inside my fears That I am nothing without you.

Come a little bit closer, You're my kind of man, so big and so strong. Come a little bit closer, I'm all alone, and the night is so long.

And I have lied, and I have begged and I have cheated And I know my ship, it won't be coming in And as I lay me down to take my rest I can see that it's just dust in the wind
Take hold my hand, and hold it tighter, ever tighter You must believe that I love you still But my strength, it grows weaker, and weaker And my body has lost its will

The Captain wired in he had water coming in And the good ship and crew was in peril And later that night when his lights went out of sight Came the wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald.
Does anyone know where the love of God goes When the words turn the minutes to hours The searchers all say they'd have made Whitefish Bay If they'd fifteen more miles behind her.

Outside of this window In ten degrees just before dawn A plastic Mary blinks Illuminated from the inside My heart glows with the spirit of Christmas Feelin' love , for lack of a better word Spirit of love , for lack of a better phrase

My hopes are so high that your kiss might kill me. So won't you kill me? So I die happy. My heart is yours to fill or burst, to break or bury, or wear as jewelry, whichever you prefer.

The clouds are full now 'bout to burst open wide This house still feels safe inside Oh darling sleeping there beneath the rain From the old tin roof ghosts still call your Name, call your name, Call your name...

But as you sleep, and no one is listening I will lift you off your feet, I'll keep you from sinking Don't you wake up yet, cause soon I'll be leaving you Soon I'll be leaving you, but you won't be leaving me

But if I can't swim after forty days And my mind is crushed by the crashing waves Lift me up so high that I cannot fall Lift me up Lift me up - When I'm falling Lift me up - I'm weak and I'm dying Lift me up - I need you to hold me Lift me up - Keep me from drowning again

Drowning out the sound of the rain as it knocks on the windowsill I'm not answering the phone, let it ring Lately i've been feeling like a falling bomb The ground is getting closer and the sky is falling ...down

Oh, where have you been, my darling young one? I've stumbled on the side of twelve misty mountains, I've walked and I've crawled on six crooked highways, I've stepped in the middle of seven sad forests, I've been out in front of a dozen dead oceans, I've been ten thousand miles in the mouth of a graveyard, And it's a hard, and it's a hard, it's a hard, and it's a hard, And it's a hard rain 's a-gonna fall.
