Sing For Dawn

via YourSong


Mwa mwa. (the sound made by kissing your hand twice.) From Tarkan that turkish pop singer that we listened to ALL week long. Love you dawn. -Ruth


 "now that she's back in the atmosphere
 with drops of jupiter in her hair
 she acts like summer & walks like rain
 reminds me that there's time to change
 since the return of her stay on the moon
 she listens like spring & she talks like june
 tell me did you sail across the sun
 did you make it to the milky way 
 to see the lights all faded 
 & that heaven is overrated
 tell me did you fall from a shooting star
 one without a permanent scar
 & did you miss me while you were looking for yourself out there..."
 train, "drops of jupiter," as sung by kat

(and Eire, although Kat beat me to it)

 

 "woke up, it was a chelsea morning
 and the first thing that I heard
 was a song outside my window
 and the traffic wrote the words
 it came ringing down like Christmas bells
 and rapping up like pipes and drums
 oh, won't you stay
 we'll put on the day
 and we'll wear it 'til the night comes
 woke up, it was a chelsea morning
 and the first thing that I saw
 was the sun through yellow curtains
 and a rainbow on the wall
 the reb bleeded gold to welcome you
 crimson crystal beats (I think)  to beckon
 oh, won't you stay
 we'll put on the day
 there's a sunshow every second
 now the curtain opens
 on a portrait of today
 and the streets are paved with passersby
 and pigeons fly
 and papers lie, waiting to blow away
 woke up, it was a chelsea morning
 and the first thing that I knew
 there was milk and toast and honey
 and a bowl of oranges too 
 and the sun poured in like butterscotch
 and stuck to all my senses
 
 oh, won't you stay
 we'll put on the day
 and we'll talk in present tenses
 now the curtain closes
 and the rainbow runs away
 I will bring you incense (owls, I think) by night
 by candle light by jewel light
 if only you will stay
 pretty baby, won't you
 wake up, it's a chelsea morning....

--Joni Mitchell, Chelsea Morning, sung by Robyn

 

 "don't you write it down
 remember this in your head
 don't take a picture
 remember this in your heart
 don't leave a message
 talk to me face to face"

--Indigo Girls "Dead Man's Hill" as sung by Eire

 "So i ask you for some relief
 and it's one true root you bring to me
 3AM it's good company
 hey kind friend
 help me forget where i been
 help me remember who i am
 hey kind friend
 i don't know when i'll see you again
 it's ok friend
 i'll meet you in new orleans or i'll see you round
 cause i don't know if it's worth coming down
 now i'm calling you from a goldrush town
 i'm ok friend
 i'm ok"

--Indigo Girls "Hey Kind Friend" as sung by Eire


 Someone's gotta hear this...
 Beautiful girl,
 You must've been a beautiful baby too
 Beautiful woman, 
 You must've had your moments inside the sun
 Beautiful girl
 Beautiful stranger
 Why do you have to walk with your head hung low
 Beautiful girl
 Your eyes are mockingbirds inside a guilded cage
 Your life's a silent movie that I haven't heard for ages
 Tell me everything, someone's gotta hear this
 beautiful thing
 Beautiful mother, frozen in ice
 I've waiting for you to grow for my whole life
 Beautiful girl
 Your eyes are mockingbirds inside a guilded cage
 Your life's a silent movie that I haven't heard for ages
 Tell me everything, someone's gotta hear this
 Beautiful thing (so beautiful)

 Never has my body felt this electric charge
 Never have I felt such joy in my arms
 It's all the spirit knows to be taken by belief
 It's all my body knows to be aching with relief
 
 I want to thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you
 I want to thank you, thank you, thank you, oooh-aah
  
 When I breathe in, the world comes to me
 When I breathe out, trees bow
 It's all the same, you know, the spaces in between
 The universe and my mouth
 
 I want to thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you
 I want to thank you, thank you, thank you, ooh-ahh
 I'm swimming under the surface of a stream like a salmon with my eyes wide
up
 I'm being swung in circles on a swing by my feet till my eyes light up
 Can't you feel the particles of change howling around your ears
 They wash away the surface of your pain like a multitude of tears
 
 I want to thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you
 I want to thank you, thank you, thank you, ooh-ahh
 Never has my mind been blown by a crazy fool like you
 Driven forth to call my own in a world that's too new
 It's all the same, you know, the surface and the stream
 It's all the same, you know, in this rearranging dream
 It's all the same, you know, the demon and the dove
 It's all the same in the eyes of love
 I want to thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you,
 I want to thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you...

--Joanne Rand, sung by Mitchell
