Man, woman, desire, love
Love one another
Can true love last forever?
Man, woman, desire, love
They both agree?
Yes, it can
Be my woman?
I'll be your man
Man, woman, desire, love
'Baby, is there something wrong with you?
You don't do the things you used to do'
'I'm sorry baby, it's just I've been drinking, I need some rest'
That's when she starts really thinking
Man, woman, tired, love
He still loves her and that's a fact
But he can't help the way he acts
She feels it now and she turns to ice
He sees an old friend for some advice
Man, friend, 'Work things out'
'Okay baby, shoot, lets get things off your chest
I know what you need, you need a damn good rest
Now I know a chick, she's cool and she's a good friend'
...This is the beginning of the end...
He hesitates, he thinks, ahh, I'll take a chance
Well, what's wrong with taking a chick to a dance?
Nothing...
What's wrong with taking a lady home?
Nothing...
'Stay awhile baby, it's all right, we're quite alone'
Well, what's wrong with that?
Plenty...
Man in heaven...temporarily
Woman? Worried
He arrives home very very late and she is staring at the wall
She says, 'How was the meetin' tonight honey? Did you have a ball?'
He says to her, 'No, it was a drag. Me and the fellas just got a little stoned
I got a little drowsy and I couldn't find my way home'
She says, 'Yeah, I know'
She knows...
And he knows that she knows
Now she's got to work really fast
If their love is going to last
Talkin' it over would only be a drag
She's got to pull some tricks out of her feminine bag
Ha, all right
Comes morning she's home and dry
And her man sleeps on, satisfied,
And this is the story of man, woman, desire, love
Man, woman, desire, love
Man, man
Woman, woman, woman,
Desire
Love
Set your soul on fire...

Holiday
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 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."
