post some lyrics you think are beautiful from eisley songs.

it wasn't until last week that i realised just how beautiful these words are, not to mention how amazingly they are sung


All the time, darling now, oh
All the time, now we'll have to make it up
We'll make it up, oh
All the days, darling now, oh
All the days, now we'll have to make them up
We'll make them up somehow

could someone please walk through with me
i've got nothing to hide, no where to be.
why do we have to come through here
nothing leads me to you.

cause you are nothing what you seem
you're always looking out for me.
you are nothing what you seem
you're always looking out for me.

Golly, Poster


Men would die at sea for you
But all I want is you
Men would live and die for you
But all I want is you, you

These beautiful moments we shared together
All end now
They'll make me drink this potion; I'll sleep forever
Until I wake under the glacier ground



Come back, come back to me, my darling.


Then hold on, hold on to the ones you love.
Hold on, hold on to the ones you love



I gave the other half of the moon to you
So you wouldn't forget me while I'm gone



And this I know dear, My heart smiles when you're near.


Down and down--
you love me, not the actor's view of me.
Down and down--
will you love me, not the actor's view of me?

On the mossy turf we'll dance 'til (ooh ahh, ooh ahh)
Our feet shatter, our toes will splinter (ooh ahh, ooh ahh)

The mystery of salt and sea
Has never been intriguing to me
But the sea green is set so beautifully
Against your pallid face that I must close my eyes
And turn my face

oh,
when the day is blue,
i'll sit here, wondering about you
and how
the pollen fell
all around your face in strange yellow patterns

when
the morning came,
the bees flew down and wrapped themselves around me
and that's
when i spoke a word
to have them trace your face for me in pollen.

I really dig that line, a very original way of rephrasing the 'knocked off my high horse' cliche. At least I think that's what she's saying. I really like how there are no repeated lyrics at all in 10 Cent Blues, great how they keep finding interesting & different ways to tell their tales.

I cut the moon in half
and stuck a piece to my hair
it made the back of my head glow
golden yellow and then i took ten stars on sticks
and placed them in my small metal bucket
i gave the other half of the moon to you
so you wouldn't forget me while i'm gone

We were walking there
And I had tangles in my hair
But you make me feel so pretty
You have shining eyes
Yes like those forest lights
And it makes me want to cry

I swear, every time one of my friends hears that part of the song, they go, "Aw!" And I have to admit, I sometimes do as well... Lol.

But my all-time favorites have to be...

With lightbulbs in our pockets,
we light this darkened forest.

and...

I shall never grow up
Make believe is much too fun.

Dark night, hold tight
and sleep tight my baby,
morning light will burst bright, and keep us here safely

Vintage People:

I have laughed up galaxies,
Hats and glasses
But i've never met anyone quite like you
I've met vintage people who boast of shipwrecks and bravery,
But I've never met someone quite like you

You can take me away from here

Do you remember how it was when
we were fascinators;
Sneaking glances.
Do you remember how it was all night while I sang
my song. 'Til our songs were done.

All the people gathered to watch you smile
And take photographs for rememberence
Could they testify with experience they would find that
They've never met someone quite like you

And you can take me away from here

Do you remember how it was when
we were fascinators;
Sneaking glances.
Do you remember how it was all night while I sang
my song. 'Til our songs were done.

And it's just nice to be near you
Until the sun breaks our city street through.
