Forgotten Tales

I close my eyes, only for a moment, and the moment's gone
All my dreams pass before my eyes, a curiosity
Dust in the wind
All they are is dust in the wind
Same old song, just a drop of water in an endless sea
All we do crumbles to the ground though we refuse to see
Dust in the wind
All we are is dust in the wind
Oh, ho, ho
Now, don't hang on, nothing lasts forever but the earth and sky
It slips away
And all your money won't another minute buy
Dust in the wind
All we are is dust in the wind
All we are is dust in the wind
Dust in the wind
Everything is dust in the wind
Everything is dust in the wind
The wind

As I climb through dirt and mud
(I'm sinking under)
In a grave of life that was
(I saw a light)
I turned my back on everything
I search for half-remembered dreams
(Pulling me down with you)
Above my head, they're circling
The vultures want what's left of me
I sacrificed it all and I will fight
Until the world goes cold
This battle's burned all that I've known
Until the world goes cold
Nothing will keep me from this throne I'll fight
Until the world goes cold
Until the world goes cold
As I build my house of bones
(You're sinking under)
For all your sins, you will atone
(I burned it down)
I turned my back on everything
I search for half-remembered dreams
(Pulling me down with you)
Above my head, they're circling
The vultures want what's left of me
I sacrificed it all and I will fight
Until the world goes cold
This battle's burned all that I've known
Until the world goes cold
Nothing will keep me from this throne I'll fight
Until the world goes cold
This battle has burned all
I'll fight forevermore
Until the world goes cold
This battle's burned all that I've known
Until the world goes cold
This battle's burned all men I've known
Until the world goes cold
Nothing will keep me from this throne I'll fight
Until the world goes cold
Until the world goes cold
Until the world goes cold

I heard this again earlier today on 6music ( look it up folks). It brought a tear to my eye:

Libraries gave us power
Then work came and made us free
What price now for a shallow piece of dignity

I wish I had a bottle
Right here in my dirty face to wear the scars
To show from where I came

We don't talk about love we only want to get drunk
And we are not allowed to spend
As we are told that this is the end

A design for life
A design for life
A design for life
A design for life

I wish I had a bottle
Right here in my pretty face to wear the scars
To show from where I came

We don't talk about love we only want to get drunk
And we are not allowed to spend
As we are told that this is the end

A design for life
A design for life
A design for life
A design for life

We don't talk about love we only want to get drunk
And we are not allowed to spend
As we are told that this is the end

A design for life
A design for life
A design for life
A design for

"The End"

This is the end
Beautiful friend
This is the end
My only friend

The end
Of our elaborate plans
The end
Of everything that stands
The end
No safety or surprise
The end
I'll never look into your eyes
Again

Can you picture what will be
So limitless and free
Desperately in need of some stranger's hand
In a desperate land

Lost in a Roman wilderness of pain
And all the children are insane
All the children are insane
Waiting for the summer rain, yeah

Ride the snake, ride the snake
To the lake
The ancient lake
Baby

This is the end
Beautiful friend
This is the end
My only friend, the end

It hurts to set you free
But you'll never follow me
The end of laughter and soft lies
The end of nights we tried to die

This is the end

Love "The Doors" i do..

Me too. My favourite.

Anyone here remember Chuck Berry?

Johnny B. Goode

[Verse 1]
Deep down in Louisiana close to New Orleans
Way back up in the woods among the evergreens
There stood a log cabin made of earth and wood
Where lived a country boy named Johnny B. Goode
Who never ever learned to read or write so well
But he could play a guitar just like a ringing a bell

[Chorus]
Go, go
Go Johnny go, go
Go Johnny go, go
Go Johnny go, go
Go Johnny go, go
Johnny B. Goode

[Verse 2]
He used to carry his guitar in a gunny sack
Go sit beneath the tree by the railroad track
Oh, the engineers would see him sitting in the shade
Strumming with the rhythm that the drivers made
People passing by they would stop and say
Oh my, but that little country boy could play

[Chorus]
Go, go
Go Johnny go, go
Go Johnny go, go
Go Johnny go, go
Go Johnny go, go
Johnny B. Goode

[Verse 3]
His mother told him "Someday you will be a man
And you will be the leader of a big old band
Many people coming from miles around
To hear you play your music when the sun go down
Maybe someday your name will be in lights
Saying 'Johnny B. Goode Tonight'"

[Chorus]
Go, go
Go Johnny go
Go go go, Johnny go
Oh go go, Johnny go
Oh go go, Johnny go
Go, Johnny B. Goode
