Let My Love Open The Door by Pete Townshend...

Compare to previous post. Fast version is my choice!

Let My Love Open The Door by Pete Townshend and Joe Purdy

Can't beat Pete Townshends' voice! Even Joe Purdy has an awesome reaction:) Love the harmonica. "When everything feels all over, Everybody seems unkind, I'll give you a four leaf clover, Take all worry out of your mind..."

When people keep repeating
That you'll never fall in love
When everybody keeps retreating
But you can't seem to get enough

Let my love open the door
Let my love open the door
Let my love open the door
To your heart

Let my love open the door
Let my love open the door
Let my love open the door
Let my love open the door

When everything feels all over
Everybody seems unkind
I'll give you a four leaf clover
Take all worry out of your mind

Let my love open the door
Let my love open the door
Let my love open the door
To your heart

I have the only key to your heart
I can stop you falling apart
Try today, you'll find this way
Come on and give me a chance to say

Let my love open the door, it's all I'm living for
Release yourself from misery
There's only one thing gonna set you free
That's my love, that's my love

Let my love open the door
Let my love open the door
Let my love open the door
Let my love open the door

When tragedy befalls you
Don't let it drag you down
Love can cure your problems
You're so lucky I'm around

Let my love open the door
Let my love open the door
Let my love open the door
To your heart

"I can see blue in the sky when it's raining..."

The Fool on the Hill by the Beatles

Feeling like a fool is never fun, but maybe the fool has got it right..."But the fool on the hill, Sees the sun going down, And the eyes in his head, See the world spinning around..."

Day after day, alone on the hill
The man with the foolish grin is keeping perfectly still
But nobody wants to know him
They can see that he's just a fool
As he never gives an answer

But the fool on the hill
Sees the sun going down
And the eyes in his head
See the world spinning around

Well on the way, head in a cloud
The man of a thousand voices talking perfectly loud
But nobody ever hears him
Or the sound he appears to make
And he never seems to notice

But the fool on the hill
Sees the sun going down
And the eyes in his head
See the world spinning around

And nobody seems to like him
They can tell what he wants to do
And he never shows his feelings

But the fool on the hill
Sees the sun going down
And the eyes in his head
See the world spinning around

He never listen to them
He knows that they're the fools!!!
They don't like him

The fool on the hill
Sees the sun going down
And the eyes in his head
See the world spinning around

Dear Mr. Fantasy by Steve Winwood and Eric Clapton

I remember listening to this when I was a kid with my dad:) "Please don't be sad if it was a straight mind you had..."

Dear Mr. Fantasy play us a tune
Something to make us all happy!!!!
Do anything, take us out of this gloom
Sing a song, play guitar, make it snappy

You are the one who can make us all laugh
But doing that you break out in tears
Please don't be sad if it was a straight mind you had
We wouldn't have known you all these years

Dear Mr. Fantasy play us a tune
Something to make us all happy
Do anything, take us out of this gloom
Sing a song, play guitar, make it snappy, yeah yeah

Dear Mr. Fantasy play us a tune
Something to make us all happy
Do anything, take us out of this gloom
Sing a song, play guitar, make it snappy

You are the one who can make us all laugh
But doing that you break out in tears
Please don't be sad if it was a straight mind you had
We wouldn't have known you all these years

I Could Have Lied by Red Hot Chili Peppers

"I could never change just what I feel, My face will never show what is not real..."

There must be something
In the way I feel
That she don't want me to feel
The stare she bares cut me
I don't care
You see so what if I bleed

I could never change 
Just what I feel
My face will never show 
What is not real

A mountain never seems to have
The need to speak
A look that shares so many seek
The sweetest feeling
I got from you
The things I said to you were true!!!

I could never change
Just what I feel
My face will never show
What is not real

I could have lied I'm such a fool
My eyes could never never never
Keep their cool
Showed her and I told her how
She struck me but I'm fucked up now

But now she's gone yes she's gone away
A soulful song that would not stay
You see she hides 'cause she is scared
But I don't care I won't be spared

I could have lied I'm such a fool
My eyes could never never never
Keep their cool
Showed her and I told her how
She struck me but I'm fucked up now

I could have lied I'm such a fool
My eyes could never never never
Keep their cool
Showed her and I told her how
She struck me but I'm fucked up now

Bittersweet by Big Head Todd

Highschool music! Love you forever and ever and ever Lauren:) But WOW this song means something a lot different now, as opposed to what it meant to us when we were 15..."It's bittersweet, More sweet than bitter, Bitter than sweet. It's a bittersweet surrender..."

A little light looks through her bedroom window.
She dances and I dream, she's not so far as she seems,
Of brighter meadows, melting sunsets,
Her hair blowing in the breeze.
And she can't see me watching.
And I'm thinking love...
Love...
Love...
Love...

It's bittersweet
More sweet than bitter, 
Bitter than sweet.
It's a bittersweet surrender.

It's bittersweet
More sweet than bitter,
Bitter than sweet.
It's a bittersweet surrender.

I'm older now.
I work in the city.
We live together.
But it's different than my dream.
Morning light fills the room. I rise.
She pretends she's sleeping.
Are we everything we wanted?
And I'm thinking love...
Love...
Love...
Love...

It's bittersweet
More sweet than bitter,
Bitter than sweet.
It's a bittersweet surrender.

It's bittersweet
More sweet than bitter,
Bitter than sweet.
It's a bittersweet surrender.

I know we don't talk about it.
We don't tell each other.
All the little things that we need.
We work our way around each other.
As we tremble and we
As we tremble and we bleed.
As we tremble and we
As we tremble and we bleed.

It's bittersweet
More sweet than bitter,
Bitter than sweet.
It's a bittersweet surrender.

It's bittersweet
More sweet than bitter,
Bitter than sweet.
It's a bittersweet surrender.

Natural Mystic Live by Bob Marley

Bob kind of day:) "There's a natural mystic blowing through the air, if you listen carefully now you will here!!!"

There's a natural mystic blowing through the air;
If you listen carefully now you will hear.
This could be the first trumpet, might as well be the last:
Many more will have to suffer,
Many more will have to die - don't ask me why.

Things are not the way they used to be,
I won't tell no lie;
One and all have to face reality now.
'Though I've tried to find the answer to all the questions they ask.
'Though I know it's impossible to go livin' through the past -
Can't keep us down

There's a natural mystic blowing through the air -
I won't tell no lie
Cause if you listen carefully now you will hear.

There's a natural mystic blowing through the air!!!

'Though I've tried to find the answer to all the questions they ask.
'Though I know it's impossible to go livin' through the past -
Can't keep us down

There's a natural mystic blowing through the air -
I won't tell no lie;
Cause if you listen carefully now you will hear:
There's a natural mystic blowing through the air.
Such a natural mystic blowing through the air;
There's a natural mystic blowing through the air;
Such a natural mystic blowing through the air;
Such a natural mystic blowing through the air;
Such a natural mystic blowing through the air.

You Can Tell Georgia by Joe Purdy

THIS IS BEAUTIFUL! and sad:( "You can tell Georgia that you were wrapped up in my arms last night, I was holding you like you were mine...You can tell Georgia that my thinking is clear, And I've been thinking that I need you near!"


You can tell Georgia that you were wrapped up in my arms last night
And I was holding you like you were mine!!!
You can tell Georgia anytime

And you can tell Georgia that my thinking is clear
And I've been thinking that I need you near
You can tell Georgia I was here
Oh you can tell Georgia I was here

Am I waking you up you said to me
Am I waking you up you said to me
Am I waking you up you said to me
Am I waking you up SWEET dear
I said no

You can tell Georgia if I see him around
Honey I'm gonna knock him down
Oh everyone be down
And if you see him again
Oh you can tell Georgia where I am
Oh you can tell Georgia where I am

Am I waking you up you said to me
am I waking you up you said to me
am I waking you up you said to me
am I waking you up you said to me
am I waking you up you said to me
am I waking you up dear
I said no

And I'll be waiting!


Country Road by Jack Johnson and Paula Fugea

Need a positive pick me up:) One day! So many different versions of this song but the message is always the same. "Sometimes it's hard to ease my mind to realize, You're always with me waiting, willing, To hear my prayers, my hopes, my dreams, my every need, I pray for peace in times of war!!!"

Head on collision on a two lane country road,
Lord I pray let them be safe.
No turning back I'm just a mile away from home,
I sit here waiting let me be patient.

Sometimes it's hard to ease my mind to realize,
You're always with me waiting, willing
To hear my prayers, my hopes, my dreams, my every need
I pray for light in times of darkness

What's meant to be will always be though I control my destiny,
Free will you gave me even though you made me.
Be careful of the things you do it eventually comes back to you,
Universal law, Babylon shall fall.

Sometimes it's hard to ease my mind to realize,
You're always with me waiting, willing
To hear my prayers, my hopes, my dreams, my every need
I pray for wisdom and overstanding

Destruction of civilization pass consequence of...
The air we breath we get from the trees
What goes up must come back down, what goes around comes back around
The things you do shall be done onto you. 

Sometimes it's hard to ease my mind to realize,
You're always with me waiting, willing
To hear my prayers, my hopes, my dreams, my every need
I pray for peace in times of war

Universal law, Babylon shall fall.
The things you do shall be done onto you!

Society by Eddie Vedder

One of my favorite of his solo songs. This song makes me want to learn and master the guitar, or even the ukelele. "Society, you're a crazy breed, I hope you're not lonely without me..." 

Throwback: 
http://www.musiclyricsmartiloves.com/2013/12/society-youre-crazy-breed-hope-youre.html

It's a mystery to me
We have a greed with which we have agreed
You think you have to want more than you need
Until you have it all you won't be free

Society, you're a crazy breed
I hope you're not lonely without me

When you want more than you have
You think you need
And when you think more than you want
Your thoughts begin to bleed

I think I need to find a bigger place
'Cause when you have more than you think
You need more space

Society, you're a crazy breed
I hope you're not lonely without me
Society, crazy and deep
I hope you're not lonely without me

There's those thinking more or less, less is more
But if less is more how you're keeping score?
Means for every point you make your level drops
Kinda like it's starting from the top, you can't do that

Society, you're a crazy breed
I hope you're not lonely without me
Society, crazy and deep
I hope you're not lonely without me

Society, have mercy on me
I hope you're not angry if I disagree
Society, crazy and deep
I hope you're not lonely without me

You Don't Know How it Feels by Tom Petty

Fun version of this song! "Think of me what you will, I've got a little space to fill, So let's get to the point, let's roll another joint:)"

Let me run with you tonight
I'll take you on a moonlight ride
There's someone I used to see
But she don't give a damn for me :(

But let me get to the point, let's roll another joint
And turn the radio loud, I'm too alone to be proud
You don't know how it feels
You don't know how it feels to be me

People come, people go
Some grow young, some grow cold
I woke up in between
A memory and a dream

So let's get to the point, let's roll another joint
Let's head on down the road
There's somewhere I gotta go
And you don't know how it feels
You don't know how it feels to be me

My old man was born to rock
He's still tryin' to beat the clock
Think of me what you will
I've got a little space to fill

So let's get to the point, let's roll another joint
And let's head on down the road
There's somewhere I got to go
And you don't know how it feels
No, you don't know how it feels to be me
