Song Lyrics

I was looking through some stuff on my laptop and I found this list. It is a list of song lyrics I found especially meaningful. I made most of the list when I was in Germany for a couple weeks for work. I was feeling a little down when I did it, as you might be able to tell from the lyrics. Eventhough some of the lyrics are sad, they are still beautiful to me. There are many more songs with many more lyrics that I find inspiritional, thoughtful, meaningful, maybe I will add more later. The last couple I added recently.

“How I wish you could see the potential, the potential of you and me. It’s like a book elegantly bound, but in language you can’t read…..just yet. You gotta spend some time love, you gotta spend some time with me, and I know that you’ll find love, I will possess your heart”

Someday my pain, someday my pain, will rock you.
