Ghosts In The Radio - Lyrics - Pretty Girls Make Graves

Title: Ghosts In The Radio
Artist: Pretty Girls Make Graves
Composer(s): Nicholas Dewitt, Jason Crowe Clark, Nathan Johnson, Andrea Zollo, Derek Fudesco

Lyric:
It's on, and the ghosts in the radio
Are signing along and they go no stars out
Just the city light well nothing feels as good as the night
Can you heard them go?

Ghosts are in the radio
They sing along, they sing along

This city is quiet, it feels like we own it
But nothing really lasts forever and we know it
It had started to rain but we didn't care
Every word that was spoken held onto the air

Like a ghosts and floated towards the sky
I pulled my jacket tight
And the city lit up the night
With the green glow of the Camlin Hotel

Ghosts are in the radio
They sing along, they sing along

Ghosts are in the radio
They sing along, they sing along

It's on and the ghosts in the radio
Are singing along and they go no stars out
Just the city light well nothing feels as good as the night
Can you hear them go?

Ghosts are in the radio
They sing along, they sing along

Ghosts are in the radio
They sing along, they sing along

The Village In The Morning - Lyrics - The Magnetic Fields

Title: The Village In The Morning
Artist: The Magnetic Fields
Composer(s): Stephin Raymond Merritt, Robert Marshall Scott

Lyric:
Outside the rain is coming down
Inside it's warm and dry
You'll never find a cab uptown
So why not stay the night?

Why don't you call in sick tomorrow?
Let's sleep the day away
I've got pajamas you can borrow
Let's take a holiday

You can't leave the village in the the morning
When the radio writes poetry for Avenue [unverified]
You get tangled in the wheels of old Queen river
And you can't find the breath to whisper
Goodbye, whisper, goodbye

Why don't you stay until the weekend?
It should clear up by then
As your resolve begins to weaken
We'll become such good friends

And you could stay until the summer
And we can sleep through spring
And I can telephone my drummer
And have her get your things

You can't leave the village in the the morning
When the radio writes poetry for Avenue [unverified]
You get tangled in the wheels of old Queen river
And you can't find the breath to whisper
Goodbye, whisper, goodbye

Why don't you stay until we're old
And fall in love with life?
Why don't you stay until we're ghosts
We'll only seem to die

You can't leave the village in the the morning
When the radio writes poetry for Avenue [unverified]
You get tangled in the wheels of old Queen river
And you can't find the breath to whisper
Goodbye, whisper, goodbye

The Country Life - Lyrics - The Ghosts That Haunt Me - Crash Test Dummies

Title: The Country Life
Album: The Ghosts That Haunt Me
Artist: Crash Test Dummies
Composer(s): Brad Roberts

Lyric:
Darling I've been thinking this one through
We've been fighting like cat and dog, now here's what we've go to do
This life in the city is killing the love that we one knew
We could be happy in the country

We would spend so many lovely days
We'd have chickens and cows and corn and whatever it is farmers raise
At breakfast each morning we'd fry up our own hand-picked eggs
We could be happy in the country

So let's pack our bags up together
And we'll be in the clear forever

We'll just sit right back and watch while our crops grow
While we listen to gals like Kitty Wells on country radio
Weekends we'd two-step at some cowboy bar just down the road
We could be happy in the country

I know that the local folks will make us feel right at home
We'll have homemade whiskey and ramble down country roads

And I would learn to ride on the rodeo
I'd have shiny boots and a cowboy hat so that nobody'd ever know
That we'd once been city folks that owned sporty cars and fancy homes
If we could just be in the country

Dr. Bernice - Lyrics - Cracker

Title: Dr. Bernice
Artist: Cracker
Composer(s): John Hickman, David Lowery, David Faragher

Lyric:
Okay one, two, three, two, two

Baby don't you drive around with Dr. Bernice
She's not a lady doctor at all
She's got hands like a man with hair on the back
She'll crush you in her embrace

Though the wind may whisper and moan sometimes
We all need a kind place to live
Though the wind may whisper and howl at your a door
We all need the comfort of friends

Baby don't you drive around with Dr. Bernice
That ain't a real Cadillac
It's a Delta eighty-eight spray painted black
With fake leather seats from Warren's

Though the wind may whisper and moan sometimes
On a hot desert night it is still
Though the world may whisper and howl at your door
You're not obliged to let them all in, okay Johnny

Baby don't you ride in that faux Cadillac
If you must please ride in the back
If you sing while you ride you'll be a siren tonight
Spare this poor sailor's life from the rocks

Though the wind may whisper a melody now
We can't find a tune of our own
Though the world may whisper and blow in your face
And tangle the hair on your head

On a hot desert night we can drive down the road
And the stars will spell out your name
On a hot desert night with the windows down wide
The sirens will sing me their song

And the ghosts of the sailors who died on the rocks
Feel not a twinch of regret
Though the wind may tangle the hair on your head
You sing like a siren to me

On a hot desert night, the caravan stops
At the oasis next to your heart
The soundtrack is played by some aged British queen
On B.B.C Radio One

Though the wind may whisper and epic sometimes
The cast must include Karen Black
Though the symphony strings shift with the sands
You sing like a siren to me

You sing like a siren to me
You sing like a siren to me

They Can'T Buy The Sunshine - Lyrics - Turin Brakes

Title: They Can'T Buy The Sunshine
Artist: Turin Brakes
Composer(s): Olly Knights, Gale Paridjanian

Lyric:
All and all it's been a blast
Fame and fortune never lasts
We'll take refuge in the sound
They burned our churches to the ground

But they can't buy the sunshine
They can't buy the sunshine
They can't buy the sun
But they can't stop the sunshine
On the sun, the sun, the sun

We may have sold our very souls
The ghosts inside the radio
They warned us once and they told us twice
This life's never very nice

They can't buy the sunshine
They can't buy the sunshine
They can't buy the sun
But they can't stop the sunshine
On the sun, the sun, the sun

The credit card skyline rises high
Crushing the sky and multiplies
They bind up souls to fill their holes
We know the one thing they don't know

They can't buy the sunshine
They can't buy the sunshine
They can't buy the sun
But they can't stop the sunshine
They can't stop the sunshine
They can't stop the sunshine
On the sun, the sun, the sun

Shine, shine on the sun, the sun, the sun
Shine, shine on the sun, the sun, the sun
Shine, shine on the sun, the sun, the sun
Shine, shine on the sun, the sun, the sun

Holiday In Spain - Lyrics - Films About Ghosts - Counting Crows

Title: Holiday In Spain
Album: Films About Ghosts
Artist: Counting Crows
Composer(s): David Immergluck, Matthew Malley, Daniel John Vickrey, Adam Duritz, Charles Gillingham, Ben Mize, Daivd Bryson

Lyric:
Got no place to go
But there's a girl waiting for me down in Mexico
She's got a bottle of tequila, a bottle of gin
And if I bring a little music, I can fit right in

We've got airplane rides
We got California drowning out the window side
We've got big black cars
And we've got stories how we slept with all the movie stars

I may take a holiday in Spain
Leave my wings behind me
Drink my worries down the drain
And fly away to somewhere new

Hop on my choo choo
I'll be your engine driver in a bunny suit
If you dress me up in pink and white
We may be just a little fuzzy 'bout it later tonight

But she's my angel
She's a little better than the one that used to be with me
'Cause she liked to scream at me
Man, it's a miracle that she's not living up in a tree

I may take a holiday in Spain
Leave my wings behind me
Drive this little girl insane
And fly away to someone new

Everybody's gone
They left the television screaming that the radio's on
Someone stole my shoes
But there's a couple of bananas and a bottle of booze

Oh, well happy New Year's, baby
We could probably fix it if we clean it up all day
Or we could simply pack our bags
And catch a plane to Barcelona 'cause this city's a drag

I may take a holiday in Spain
Leave my wings behind me
Flush my worries down the drain
And fly away to somewhere new

Take a holiday in Spain
Leave my wings behind me
Drive this little girl insane
Fly away to someone new

Fly away to someone new
Fly away to someone new

Through The Glass Darkly - Lyrics - Songs of Mass Destruction - Annie Lennox

Title: Through The Glass Darkly
Album: Songs of Mass Destruction
Artist: Annie Lennox
Composer(s): Annie Lennox

Lyric:
I'm caught up in the middle but I?m taken to the end
It?s coming back together and it?s breaking down again
If I can find a reason, I?d say you were my friend
If I can find a reason, I?d say it once again

When I?m with you the days are bittersweet
I still can?t remember what it feels to be complete, yeah
I?ve tried pretending but it drives me off my feet
I don?t know what it?s coming to
But I?m looking through the glass darkly
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, ooh, ooh, ooh

Bright lights come and go, playing blue songs on my radio
Shadows still appear in the house tonight, ooh yeah
Ghosts have come in from the past
All those ghosts that keep on coming back
Sliding through the walls and my windows, ooh yeah

When I?m with you the nights are cold and long
I still can?t remember what it feels like to be strong
I?ve tried to blend in but it seems I don?t belong
I don?t know what it?s coming to
But I?m looking through the glass darkly
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Can I find you?
Can I find you?
I can?t find you, yeah, yeah
I can?t find you

Can I find you?
Can I find you?
I can?t find you, yeah
I can?t find you
Can?t find you, ohh

Ashgrove - Lyrics - Dave Alvin

Title: Ashgrove
Artist: Dave Alvin
Composer(s): Dave Alvin

Lyric:
Well when I was a young boy, I used to slip away
Down to the ashgrove to hear the old blues men play
There was big Joe and lightnin' and reverend Gary too
Well I'd sit and stare and dream of doin' what they could do

Well it's been thirty years since the ashgrove burned down
And I'm out on this highway travelin' town to town
Tryin' to make a livin', tryin' to pay the rent
Tryin' to figure out where my life went

I wanna go back to the ashgrove
That's where I come from
I wanna go back to the ashgrove
That's where I belong

Well you don't have to go searchin', pretend to put on airs
'Cause the blues are gonna find you someday, somewhere
Now my mother's gone, now my fathers gone
And all the old blues men have all passed on

And I'm out on this highway travelin' town to town
Settin' up my gear and then I'm tearin' it down
Turnin' up my guitar, standin' up on the stage
I'm just tryin' to raise the ghosts up out of their graves

I wanna go back to the ashgrove
That's where I come from
Yeah I wanna go back to the ashgrove
That's where I belong

Well I can't say I been all sinner, can't say I been all saint
I've done some good deeds and I've made big mistakes
I've been in and out of love, said words I regret
I've been drunk, been sober smoked too many cigarettes

And I'm out on this highway travelin' town to town
And the news on the radio just brings me down
Intolerance and fear, ignorance and lies
It's the same old same old I heard a million times

And I'm thinkin' of friends and lovers and how they come and go
Like look-alike houses on the side of the road
Full of everyday people tryin' to get ahead
Tryin' to find a reason just to get out of bed

'Cause we all need somethin' just to get us through
Well I'm gonna play the blues tonight man
'Cause that's what I do

I'm goin' back to the ashgrove
That's where I come from
I'm goin' back to the ashgrove
That's where I belong
