Lyrics: waiting in vain

Because there’s just too much longing in the song, the distance, i need to post this annie lennox song to offset the “heavy” emotional content. 

I find annie lennox a cool artist so it’s always a given fact that the same goes for her songs.

Waiting in vain
By annie lennox

From the very first time I rest my eyes on you,boy
My heart said follow through but I know now
That I'm way down on your line
But the waiting feeling's fine

So don't treat me like a puppet on a string
Because I know how to do my thing
Don't talk to me as if you think I'm dumb
I wanna know when you're gotta come,you see

*i don't wanna wait in a vain for your love
I don't wanna wait in a vain for your love
I don't wanna wait in a vain for your love
'cause sommer is here
And I'm still waiting there
Winter is here
I'm still waiting there

Like I said
It's been three years since I'm knocking on your door
And still I can knock some more
Ooh boy,ooh boy,is it crazy look,i wanna know now
For I to knock some more,you see

In life I know
That there is lots of grief
But your love is my relief

Tears in my eyes burn
Tears in my eyes burn
While I'm waitin'
While I'm waitin' for my turn,you see

(*repeat)

Like I said-
I don't wanna,i don't wanna
I don't wanna,i don't wanna
I don't wanna wait in vain
I don't wanna,i don't wanna
I don't wanna,i don't wanna
I don't wanna wait in vain

It's been three years since I'm knocking on your door
And still I can knock some more
Ooh boy,ooh boy,is it crazy look,i wanna know now
Like I said,the tears in my eyes burn
Tears in my eyes burn
While I'm waiting
While I'm waiting for my turn,you see
Ooh boy,ooh boy,is it crazy look,i wanna know now
For I to knock some more
In life I know there is lots of grief
But your love is my relief

Lyrics: the distance

I had been a fan of evan and jaron even before I saw the movie serendipity. I know, I know! Serendipity is one of my all-time favorites! Whenever I fancied a movie, I always make sure that its soundtrack is in my itunes.

The distance
By evan and jaron

The sky has lost it's color
The sun has turned to grey
At least that's how it feels to me
Whenever you're away
I crawl up in the corner
As I watch the minutes pass
Each one brings me closer to
The time you're comin' back

I can't take the distance
I can't take the miles
I can't take the time until I next see you smile
I can't take the distance
And I'm not ashamed
That with every breath I take I'm callin your name

But I can't take the distance

I still believe my feelings
But sometimes I feel too much
I make believe you're close to me
But it ain't close enough
Not nearly close enough

I can't take the distance
I can't take the miles
I can't take the time until I next see you smile
I can't take the distance
And I'm not ashamed
That with every breath I take I'm callin your name

I brave fire and I brave rain
To be by your side I'd do anything
I can't take the distance

I will go the distance
I will go the miles
That's how much you mean to me

'Cause I can't take the distance
I can't take these miles
I can't take the time until I next see you smile
I can't take the distance
And I'm not ashamed
That with every breath I take I'm calling your name
I can't take the distance

It's hard to remember
As long as you're away
When I find solace
There's only one way

Lyrics: moon river

Moon river
Music by henry mancini, lyrics by Johnny mercer

Moon river wider than a mile
I’m crossing you in style someday
You dream maker, you heartbreaker
Wherever you’re going I’m going your way

Two drifters off to see the world
There’s such a lot of world to see
We’re after the same rainbow’s end
Waiting ‘round the bend
My huckleberry friend, moon river and me

(Moon river, wider than a mile)
(I’m crossin’ you in style some day)
oh dream maker, you heart breaker
wherever you’re going, I’m going your way

(moon river, moon river)

I came to know this song because of my father. It was much later when I saw the movie, “breakfast at tiffany’s.”  unfortunately, the movie didn’t have much impact as the song had, except for the classic
beauty of Audrey hepburn.

Lyrics: moonlight kiss

I first heard this song when I saw the movie, serendipity.  I find this song so poignant.  The melody is simple yet so pleasing to the ears.  It feels like it’s so wonderful to fall in love during winter time, like that in the movie.

Moonlight kiss
By bap kennedy

I can feel my heart
And it's fit to burst
I try to clean it up
But I just get worse

Wish I could fall
On a night like this
Into your lovin' arms
For a moonlight kiss

I thought I saw your face
In the evenin' sky
On a lonesome cloud
That was driftin' by

I wish I could fall
On a night like this
Into your lovin' arms
For a moonlight kiss

You got someone else
Maybe it's for the best
Since I took the cure
For happiness

And I'd trade it all
On a night like this
For your lovin' arms
And a moonlight kiss

For your lovin' arms
And a moonlight kiss

Lovin' arms
And a moonlight kiss
Ooh, yeah
