So, I suppose it says something when, in searching my brain and other people's lists of songs (because I'm terrible at listing things) for love songs at the request of a friend, Billy Joel's "You May Be Right" sounded like it fit. ;) (I did not, however, suggest it. It doesn't quite fit the intended theme, amusing though it may be)

(what? I bet my entire friends list is crazy to some degree or another, this is hardly news! ;)

Current song in my head: "Accidentally in Love", by Counting Crows. From the Shrek 2 soundtrack. :)

How about this one ;)

Beyond You (Marillion) (http://www.marillion.com/discog/aos/beyond.html)

Lyrics: Hogarth
Music: Hogarth/Kelly/Mosley/Rothery/Trewavas

If you were a baby I would take you and run
I could hide you in the folds of my heart
There's a truth in the madness that I can't get beyond
And a fever that won't leave me alone
I don't want my heart
Don't want my head
Don't want my friends
Don't want my bed
I can't live with myself
I can't live with myself
Can't take no help
I try to want to
But I can't get beyond you

I will stare from the window
At the shapes in the rain
As the space between us drives me insane

I can't live with myself
I can't live with myself
Can't take no help
Don't want no one else

If I was a child
I would refuse to leave
I would sit down on the street
Kick my legs and scream

I'm not much of a man
But I know how I am
I know this won't fade away
I will pretend and be strong
But I wonder where I belong

And the feeling comes in waves
A hole in my body, aching
Like a heart dying
A soul crying
Exhausted and insecure
Took all you have and I still want more
So I reach out to hold you
But all I do is hurt you
Hurt you

I can't live with myself
I can't live with myself
Can't take no help
I try to want to
But I can't get beyond you

If I was a child I would take you and run
And I say I don't know... But I know
And I say I'll go

You just spent the whole day
Driving away

Just To Remedy that "Problem"

Counting Crows -- Accidentally In Love
(Popularized by its inclusion in the Shrek 2 Soundtrack. Incidentally, Shrek 2 is a really cute and good movie. You should go see it. Just because I said so, if nothing else. :D )

So she said what's the problem baby
What's the problem I don't know
Well maybe I'm in love (love)
Think about it every time
I think about it
Can't stop thinking 'bout it

How much longer will it take to cure this
Just to cure it cause I can't ignore it if it's love (love)
Makes me wanna turn around and face me but I don't know nothing 'bout love

Come on, come on
Turn a little faster
Come on, come on
The world will follow after
Come on, come on
Cause everybody's after love

So I said I'm a snowball running
Running down into the spring that's coming all this love
Melting under blue skies
Belting out sunlight
Shimmering love

Well baby I surrender
To the strawberry ice cream
Never ever end of all this love
Well I didn't mean to do it
But there's no escaping your love

These lines of lightning
Mean we're never alone,
Never alone, no, no

Come on, Come on
Move a little closer
Come on, Come on
I want to hear you whisper
Come on, Come on
Settle down inside my love

Come on, come on
Jump a little higher
Come on, come on
If you feel a little lighter
Come on, come on
We were once
Upon a time in love

We're accidentally in love
Accidentally in love (x7)

Accidentally

I'm In Love, I'm in Love,
I'm in Love, I'm in Love,
I'm in Love, I'm in Love,
Accidentally (X 2)

Come on, come on
Spin a little tighter
Come on, come on
And the world's a little brighter
Come on, come on
Just get yourself inside her

Love ...I'm in love

"You May Be Right" Corollary

Matchbox20--Unwell

Making friends with shadows on my wall
All night hearing voices telling me
That I should get some sleep
Because tomorrow might be good for something

Hold on
Feeling like I'm heading for a breakdown
And I don't know why

[Chorus]

But I'm not crazy, I'm just a little unwell
I know right now you can't tell
But stay awhile and maybe then you'll see
A different side of me
I'm not crazy, I'm just a little impaired
I know right now you don't care
But soon enough you're gonna think of me
And how I used to be...me

I'm talking to myself in public
Dodging glances on the train
And I know, I know they've all been talking bout me
I can hear them whisper
And it makes me think there must be something wrong with me
Out of all the hours thinking
Somehow I've lost my mind

[Chorus]

But I'm not crazy, I'm just a little unwell
I know right now you can't tell
But stay awhile and maybe then you'll see
A different side of me
I'm not crazy, I'm just a little impaired
I know right now you don't care
But soon enough you're gonna think of me
And how I used to be

I've been talking in my sleep
Pretty soon they'll come to get me
Yeah, they're taking me away

[Chorus]

I'm not crazy, I'm just a little unwell
I know right now you can't tell
But stay awhile and maybe then you'll see
A different side of me
I'm not crazy, I'm just a little impaired
I know right now you don't care
But soon enough you're gonna think of me
And how I used to be

Yeah, how I used to be
How I used to be
Well, I'm just a little unwell
How I used to be
How I used to be
I'm just a little unwell

Excellent!

Riding in the _raaaaaain_!

(do you realize that, as I learned while trying to describe you in the 'describe the people on your friends list' thing, I have no real sense of you? Fascinating. I think you might even be local to me!)

Buy the soundtrack.

I don't think we've ever met in person, although we've been at Diesel at the same time. Nor have we talked on IM or otherwise interacted toher than via LJ. You've met my lover [livejournal.com profile] yulecat at the reiki/energy work gatherings that occur in a location I can't even remember right now, but I think that's as close as you've gotten to me in real life.

Just confused by why posting lyrics when I had a link to them already. :) No worries!

Aaah... that could easily explain why, yes. Thanks for the informational bits!
