Should I lose some weight? “American Life”

I keep on waiting / anticipating / but we’re never together “Bye Bye Baby”

I wanna have your baby “Justify My Love”

Oh My God.... so many...

If I ran away, I'd never have the strength

To go very far

How would they hear the beating of my heart

Will it grow cold

The secret that I hide, will I grow old

How will they hear

When will they learn

How will they know

(LTT)86

My conscience is clear I know right from wrong

That's a lie I know nothing except that you're gone

But there's more to learn from the look in your eyes

That trip round this world, the stars in the sky

Now all the books I've read, and the things I know

Never taught me to live, never taught me to let go

(TLOL)87

The bruises they will fade away

You hit so hard with the things you say

I will not stay to watch your hate as it grows

You're not in love with someone else

You don't even love yourself

Still I wish you'd ask me not to go

(TDDUS)89

I fought to be so strong, I guess you knew

I was afraid you'd go away, too

Little girl you've got to forget the past

And learn to forgive me

I promise to try -- but it feels like a lie

Don't let memory play games with your mind

She's a faded smile frozen in time

I'm still hanging on -- but I'm doing it wrong

Can't kiss her goodbye -- but I promise to try

(PTT)89

It's funny that way, you can get used

To the tears and the pain

(OF)89

Say that happiness cannot be measured,

And a little pain can bring you all life's little pleasures.

What a joke.

(STR)90

Live and learn

Well the years they flew

And we never knew

We were foolish then

We would never tire

And that little fire

Is still alive in me

It will never go away

Can't say goodbye to yesterday [can't say goodbye]

(TUTBMP)92

When you looked into my eyes

And you said goodbye could you see my tears

When I turned the other way

Did you hear me say

I'd wait for all the dark clouds bursting in a perfect sky

You promised me when you said goodbye

That you'd return when the storm was done

And now I'll wait for the light, I'll wait for the sun

(Rain)92

Words are useless, especically sentences

They don't stand for anything

How could they explain how I feel

(BS)94

When my world seems to crumble all around

And foolish people try to bring me down

I just think of your smiling face

And I'm flying

(IOM)94

I turned around too late to see the fallen star

I fell asleep and never saw the sun go down

I took your love for granted

Thought luck was always on my side

I turned around too late and you were gone

(OMC)96

I got exactly what I asked for

Wanted it so badly

Running, rushing back for more

I suffered fools so gladly

And now I find

I've changed my mind

(DW/SFL)98

Nothing takes the past away

Like the future

Nothing makes the darkness go

Like the light

(NRM)98

Many miles, many roads I have traveled

Fallen down on the way

Many hearts, many years have unraveled

Leading up to today

(IDI)00

I'm not religious

But I feel so moved

Makes me want to pray

Pray you'll always be here

I'm not religious

But I feel such love

Makes me want to pray

When I get lost in space

I can return to this place

'Cause, you're the one

(NF)03

In the blink of an eye everything could change

Say hello to your life, now you're living

This is it from now on

It's a brand new day

It was time to wake up from this dream

(Intervention)03

Just one smile on your face

Was all it took to change my fortune

Just one word from your mouth

Was all I needed to be certain

(FL)05

How high are the stakes

How much fortune can you make

Should I carry on

Will it matter when I'm gone

(HH)05

Too much of no sound

Uncomfortable silence can be so loud

Those three words are never enough

When it's long distance love

(MA)08

Oops I guess I shot ya

My finger's on the trigger

I had a bullet with your name on it

Click click

(Revolver)09

"I'm gonna delay my pleasure

I'm gonna close my body now."

"Romeo and Juliet, they never felt this way I bet."

"You put this in me. So now what?"

"You're not in love with me anymore

I wish that it would change, but it won't."

"Music can be such a revelation."

"When you open up your mouth to speak, could you be a little weak?"

"I'm not very smart."

Learn to say goodbye...i yearn to say goodbye - The power of Goodbye

And like a castle in the sand, it had to fall apart. You made me laugh you gave me hope its over now, our happiness went up in smoke, its over now. - Time stood still

This is probably the most fun line to sing of all her catalog:

"The sun would set so high, ring through my ears and sting my eyes, your Spanish lullaby."

Who needs the sun, when the rain's so full of life

Who needs the sky, when the ground's open wide

- Sanctuary

Nothing takes the past away

Like the future

Nothing makes the darkness go

Like the light

You're shelter from the storm

Give me comfort in your arms

It's so cool to be uncool,

it's so right to be unright.

It's so good to look so bad,

isn't this the best thing you ever had.

Don't let memory play games with your mind

You breathe new life into my broken heart

Don't hold onto the past, well that's too much to ask

This masquerade is getting older

Happiness lies in your own hands

Only when I'm dancing can I feel this free

And the lyrics to LAP, Drowned World, ROL, Borderline, OYH and many others. Not most post 2000 ones, the decline in songwriting, melodically but ESPECIALLY lyrically started there.

The best rap in the history of mankind:

Greta Garbo and Monroe, Dietrich & DiMaggio

Marlon Brando, Jimmy Dean on the cover of a magazine

Grace Kelly, Harlow Jean, picture of a beauty queen

Gene Kelly, Fred Astaire, Ginger Rogers, dance on air

They had style, they had grace, Rita Hayworth gave good face

Lauren, Katherine, Lana too, Betty Davis we love you

Ladies with an attitude, fellas that were in the mood

Don't just stand there, let's get to it

Strike a pose, there's nothing to it

Vogue!
