This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
If I built you a temple
from the bricks of my heart
Would you stay there forever
never to tear us apart
If I gave you a mountain of gold
would you beg me to let you in, ooh would you?
To share our dreams of the days to come
and to find a place where we both will run ooh yeah!
If I built you a temple
yeah would you beg me to let you in
If I built you a temple
Would you try to stay within oh no!
If I built you a temple
The soul I give is all I've got
If I gave you my soul to keep
and to treasure it with pride
Would you stay in these arms girl
And never to let it slide
If I built you a staircase
to the heavens within
would you share the light
under garden trees
to walk a million miles
in the land of the free ooh yeah!
If I built you a temple
would you beg me to let you in
If I built you a temple
Would you try to stay within
If I built you a temple
Ooh no, the soul I give is all I've got yeah!
You know it's all I've got
Through you're a million miles
away from me
our love's so close as any love can be
and when I'm feeling down
I know you'll be there yeah!
Like a flower born in the early spring
Just I need of love and the gifts you bring
So sister above - I think I'm in love
yeah If I built you a temple
would you beg me to let you in
If I built you a temple
Would you try to stay within oh no!
If I built you a temple
The soul I give is all I've got yeah!
If I built you a temple
would you beg me to let you in
If I built you a temple
Would you try to stay within oh no!
If I built you a temple
The soul I give is all I've got
from the bricks of my heart
Would you stay there forever
never to tear us apart
If I gave you a mountain of gold
would you beg me to let you in, ooh would you?
To share our dreams of the days to come
and to find a place where we both will run ooh yeah!
If I built you a temple
yeah would you beg me to let you in
If I built you a temple
Would you try to stay within oh no!
If I built you a temple
The soul I give is all I've got
If I gave you my soul to keep
and to treasure it with pride
Would you stay in these arms girl
And never to let it slide
If I built you a staircase
to the heavens within
would you share the light
under garden trees
to walk a million miles
in the land of the free ooh yeah!
If I built you a temple
would you beg me to let you in
If I built you a temple
Would you try to stay within
If I built you a temple
Ooh no, the soul I give is all I've got yeah!

Through you're a million miles
away from me
our love's so close as any love can be
and when I'm feeling down
I know you'll be there yeah!
Like a flower born in the early spring
Just I need of love and the gifts you bring

If I built you a temple
would you beg me to let you in
If I built you a temple
Would you try to stay within oh no!
If I built you a temple
The soul I give is all I've got

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
Holiday
Bee Gees
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.
Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988.
"'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it."
"There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."
