Favorite Song Lyrics

Nov 7 2009, 23h41 por ramblingenemy

Lua-Bright Eyes, I'm Wide Awake It's Morning'Cause what is simple in the moonlight by the morning never is.
The Boy With The Arab Strap-Belle & Sebastian, The Boy With the Arab StrapColor my life with the chaos of trouble.
The Engine Driver-The Decemberists, PicaresqueAnd if you don't love me let me go.
The Apocalypse Song-St. Vincent, Marry MeI guess you are afraid of what everyone is made of.
Your Ex-Lover Is Dead-Stars, Set Yourself on FireWhen there is nothing left to burn, you have to set yourself on fire.
World Spins Madly On-The Weepies, Say I Am YouThe whole world is moving, but I'm standing still.
Goodnight Bad Morning-The Kills, Midnight BoomI love you so much, never forget.
Volcano-Damien Rice, OYou give me miles and miles of mountains and I'll ask for the sea.
