I recommend getting your heart trampled on to anyone I recommend walking around naked in your living room Swallow it down (what a jagged little pill) It feels so good (swimming in your stomach) Wait until the dust settles
You live you learn You love you learn You cry you learn You lose you learn You bleed you learn You scream you learn
I recommend biting off more then you can chew to anyone I certainly do I recommend sticking your foot in your mouth at any time Feel free Throw it down (the caution blocks you from the wind) Hold it up (to the rays) You wait and see when the smoke clears
You live you learn You love you learn You cry you learn You lose you learn You bleed you learn You scream you learn
Wear it out (the way a three-year-old would do) Melt it down (you're gonna have to eventually anyway) The fire trucks are coming up around the bend
You live you learn You love you learn You cry you learn You lose you learn You bleed you learn You scream you learn
You grieve you learn You choke you learn You laugh you learn You choose you learn You pray you learn You ask you learn You live you learn
Gloria Gaynor, "I will survive" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZBR2G-iI3-I
At first I was afraid I was petrified. Kept thinking I could never live without you by my side. But then I spent so many nights Thinking how you did me wrong. And I grew strong! And I learned how to get along! So now you're back from out of space. I just walked in to find you here with that sad look upon your face.
I should have changed that stupid lock! I should have made you leave your key! If I had known for just one second you'd be back to bother me.
Go on now, go, walk out that door! Just turn around now‚ cause you're not welcome any more. Weren't you the one who tried to hurt (crush) me with goodbye?
Did I crumble Did I lay down and die Oh no, not I! I will survive! Oh and as long as I know how to love I know I stay alive. I've got all my life to live, I've got all my love to give. And I'll survive! I will survive! Hey, hey.
It took all the strength I had not to fall apart. Kept tryin' hard to mend the pieces of my broken heart! And I spent oh so many nights just feeling sorry for myself. I used to cry! But now I hold my head up high. And you see me somebody new! I'm not that chained-up little person still in love with you.
And so you feel like droppin' in, and just expect me to be free, now I'm saving all my loving for someone who is loving me!
Diem, this song IS ONE OF MY FAVORITE SONGS EVER, and it also has lots of good lessons FOR US TO LEARN:
kept thinking spent so many nights (time) thinking feel like dropping in keep trying (hard) to mend (this is a gerund followed by an infinitive) not to fall apart (negative infinitive) learned how to get along (reduced from how I could get along) know how to love (reduced from how I can love) you'd be back (in order) to bother me the one who tried to hurt me
Come and hold my hand I WANT TO CONTACT THE LIVING Not sure I understand This role I've been given
I sit and talk to God And he just laughs at my plans My head speaks a language I don't understand
i JUST WANT TO FEEL REAL LOVE Feel the home that I live in Cause I got too much life Running through my veins Going to waste
I DON'T WANT TO DIE But I AIN'T KEEN ON LIVING either Before I fall in love I'm PREPARING TO LEAVE her I scare myself to death That's why I KEEP ON RUNNING Before I've arrived I CAN SEE MYSELF COMING
I just WANT TO FEEL REAL LOVE Feel the home that I live in Cause I got too much life Running through my veins Going to waste And I NEED TO FEEL REAL LOVE And a life ever after I cannot give it up
I just WANT TO FEEL REAL LOVE Feel the home that I live in I got too much love Running through my veins To go to waste
I just want to feel real love In a life ever after There's a hole in my soul You can see it in my face It's a real big place
Come and hold my hand I WANT TO CONTACT THE LIVING Not sure I understand This role I've been given Not sure I understand

I recommend getting your heart trampled on to anyone
I recommend walking around naked in your living room
Swallow it down (what a jagged little pill)
It feels so good (swimming in your stomach)
Wait until the dust settles
You live you learn
You love you learn
You cry you learn
You lose you learn
You bleed you learn
You scream you learn
I recommend biting off more then you can chew to anyone
I certainly do
I recommend sticking your foot in your mouth at any time
Feel free
Throw it down (the caution blocks you from the wind)
Hold it up (to the rays)
You wait and see when the smoke clears
You live you learn
You love you learn
You cry you learn
You lose you learn
You bleed you learn
You scream you learn
Wear it out (the way a three-year-old would do)
Melt it down (you're gonna have to eventually anyway)
The fire trucks are coming up around the bend
You live you learn
You love you learn
You cry you learn
You lose you learn
You bleed you learn
You scream you learn
You grieve you learn
You choke you learn
You laugh you learn
You choose you learn
You pray you learn
You ask you learn
You live you learn

Did I crumble
Did I lay down and die
Oh no, not I! I will survive!
Oh and as long as I know how to love I know I stay alive.
I've got all my life to live, I've got all my love to give.
And I'll survive!
I will survive! Hey, hey.

ReplyDeleteCome and hold my hand
I WANT TO CONTACT THE LIVING
Not sure I understand
This role I've been given
I sit and talk to God
And he just laughs at my plans
My head speaks a language
I don't understand
i JUST WANT TO FEEL REAL LOVE
Feel the home that I live in
Cause I got too much life
Running through my veins
Going to waste
I DON'T WANT TO DIE
But I AIN'T KEEN ON LIVING either
Before I fall in love
I'm PREPARING TO LEAVE her
I scare myself to death
That's why I KEEP ON RUNNING
Before I've arrived
I CAN SEE MYSELF COMING
I just WANT TO FEEL REAL LOVE
Feel the home that I live in
Cause I got too much life
Running through my veins
Going to waste
And I NEED TO FEEL REAL LOVE
And a life ever after
I cannot give it up
I just WANT TO FEEL REAL LOVE
Feel the home that I live in
I got too much love
Running through my veins
To go to waste
I just want to feel real love
In a life ever after
There's a hole in my soul
You can see it in my face
It's a real big place
Come and hold my hand
I WANT TO CONTACT THE LIVING
