V-day is commin, and well lets post good love snogs and there lyrics so maybe we can get some new ideas of what to do or play for our sweet hearts.

Only Alive
Jars of Clay

I'm a fair weather friend
I'm a colorless view but I'm willin' to make a deal
If you think you can make some faith here inside
I'll drive off and marry you
CHORUS
I'm only alive with youI can't get by and I won't get through
So put me in the river and let me say I do
I'm only alive with you

You're a sight for sore eyes and a newborn cry
In a year where there are so few
If you throw me a line, I'll show you in time
I'm fallin' in love with you
Though my heart has been torn by loves I have worn
And I'm tempted by them ever still I tremble inside when you walk in the room
You hold my affections and will

One of my favorite love songs, the do-wop hit:

"One More Minute"

Well I heard that you're leavin' (leavin')
Gonna leave me far behind (so far behind)
'Cause you found a brand new lover
You decided that I'm not your kind (aahh..)

So I pulled (I pulled) your name out (name out) of my Rolodex (oohh..)
And I tore all your pictures in two
And I burned down the malt shop where we used to go
Just because it reminds me of you (dippity dippity doo)

That's right (that's right) you ain't gonna see me cryin'
I'm glad (I'm glad) that you found somebody new
'Cause I'd rather spend eternity eating shards of broken glass
Than spend one more minute with you

I guess I might seem kinda bitter
You got me feeling down in the dumps
'Cause I'm stranded all alone in the gas station of love
And I have to use the self-service pumps

Oh, so honey, let me help you with that suitcase
You ain't (you ain't) gonna break my heart in two
'Cause I'd rather get a hundred thousand paper cuts on my face
Than spend one more minute with you

I'd rather rip out my intestines with a fork
Than watch you going out with other men
I'd rather slam my fingers in a door (yah)
Again and again and again and again and again

Oh, can't you see what I'm tryin' to say, Darlin...

I'd rather have my blood sucked out by leeches (leeches)
Shove an icepick under a toenail or two
I'd rather clean all the bathroom in Grand Central Station with my tongue
Than spend one more minute with you

Yes, I'd rather jump naked on a huge pile of thumbtacks
Or stick my nostrils together with crazy glue
I'd rather dive into a swimming pool filled with double-edged razor blades
Than spend one more minute with you

I'd rather rip my heart out of my ribcage with my bare hands
and then throw it on the floor and stomp on it 'till I die
Than spend one more minute with you


Did I forget to mention it's a Weird Al Yankovich song?

Just to clarify:

It's "Weird Al" Yankovic, not "Yankovich". (A common mistake with his name)

Anyway, here's another love song, a classic tune by our ol' buddy Bert:

I Want to Hold Your Ear

(Spoken)
"I know I'm an exciting, OK kinda guy. I once had a girlfriend. She went to pieces every time she saw me. This is the song I sang to her as she was falling apart:

(Ahem)

I held your hand and told you that I loved you.
You turned around and walked right out the door.
Seems like holding your hand was not enough
So I want to do something more.

Oh I want to hold your ear, baby.
Wanna hold it near, baby.
Wanna hold your ear
Until you hear that (sigh)
I love you.

And I want to hold your eyes, baby.
Lovely shape and size baby.
Want to hold your eyes
So you'll see and realize that...
I love you.

Oh, I wanna hold your nose!
I wanna hold your tooth!
I won't let you breathe or eat
Until you know the truth!
I love you!

Oh, I wanna hold your hair, baby.
Show you that I care, baby.
And it's only fair to tell you what I intend to dooooo
I'm going to keep what I hold dear:
Your nose,
Your eyes,
Your tooth,
Your ear,
And I'm gonna hold them 'till
You say you love me tooo!":frown:

I've Got You Under My Skin-by Frank Sinatra

I've got you under my skin.
I've got you deep in the heart of me.
So deep in my heart that you're really a part of me.
I've got you under my skin.
I'd tried so not to give in.
I said to myself: this affair never will go so well.
But why should I try to resist when, baby, I know so well
I've got you under my skin?

I'd sacrifice anything come what might
For the sake of havin' you near
In spite of a warnin' voice that comes in the night
And repeats, repeats in my ear:
Don't you know, little fool, you never can win?
Use your mentality, wake up to reality.
But each time that I do just the thought of you
Makes me stop before I begin
'Cause I've got you under my skin.

I would sacrifice anything come what might
For the sake of havin' you near
In spite of the warning voice that comes in the night
And repeats - how it yells in my ear:
Don't you know, little fool, you never can win?
Why not use your mentality - step up, wake up to reality?
But each time I do just the thought of you
Makes me stop just before I begin
'Cause I've got you under my skin.
Yes, I've got you under my skin.

Hey, thanks for clarifying that, John. That was really dumb of me.

I know I wouldn't want anyone confusing "Weird Al" Yankovic the parodist with Weird Al Yankovich the Nobel Prize winning physicist.

"As Long As You're Mine" from Wicked

Kiss me too fiercely
Hold me too tight
I need help believing
You're with me tonight
My wildest dreamings
Could not forsee
Lying beside you
With you wanting me

Just for this moment
As long as you're mine
I've lost all resistance
And crossed some borderline
And if it turns out
It's over too fast
I'll make every last moment last
As long as you're mine

Maybe I'm brainless
Maybe I'm wise
But you've got me seeing
Through different eyes
Somehow I've fallen
Under your spell
And somehow I'm feeling
It's up that I fell

Every moment
As long as you're mine
I'll wake up my body
And make up for lost time
Say there's no future
For us as a pair
And though I may know
I don't care

Just for this moment
As long as you're mine
Come be how you want to
And see how bright we shine
Borrow the moonlight
Until it is through
And know I'll be here
Holding you
As long as you're mine

Hey, just trying to be polite in correcting a common error with his name. No need for the sarcasm. "The Nobel Prize winning physicist?" :rolleyes:

At this link: http://www.weirdal.com/aaarchive.htm someone asks Weird Al about it:

Derek "Inquiring" Miner of Largo, Florida asks: I keep hearing people mispronounce your name as "Yanko-VICH." Why do you think they do this, and doesn't it bother you?

Weird Al's response: My paternal grandparents actually pronounced their name YONK-o-vich, so I guess there’s some history behind it. But it’s still one of my little pet peeves.


So there you go.

Phantom Of The Opera - All I Ask of You Lyrics
RAOUL
No more talk
of darkness,
Forget these
wide-eyed fears.
I'm here,
nothing can harm you -
my words will
warm and calm you.
Let me be
your freedom,
let daylight
dry -your tears.
I'm here,
with you, beside you,
to guard you
and to guide you . . .
CHRISTINE
Say you love me
every
waking moment,
turn my head
with talk of summertime . . .
Say you need me
with you,
now and always . . .
promise me that all
you say is true -
that's all I ask
of you . . .
RAOUL
Let me be
your shelter,
let me
be your light.
You're safe:
No-one will find you
your fears are
far behind you . . .
CHRISTINE
All I want
is freedom,
a world with
no more night . . .
and you
always beside me
to hold me
and to hide me . . .
RAOUL
Then say you'll share with
me one
love, one lifetime . . .
Iet me lead you
from your solitude . . .
Say you need me
with you
here, beside you . . .
anywhere you go,
let me go too -
Christine,
that's all I ask
of you . . .
CHRISTINE
Say you'll share with
me one
love, one lifetime . . .
say the word
and I will follow you . . .
BOTH
Share each day with
me, each
night, each morning . . .
CHRISTINE
Say you love me . . .
RAOUL
You know I do . . .
BOTH
Love me -
that's all I ask
of you . . .
(They kiss)
Anywhere you go
let me go too . . .
Love me -
that's all I ask
of you . .
(CHRISTINE starts from her reverie)
CHRISTINE
I must go -
they'll wonder where I am . . .
wait for me, Raoul!
RAOUL
Christine, I love you!
CHRISTINE;
Order your fine horses!
Be with them at the door!
RAOUL
And soon you'll be beside me!
CHRISTINE
You'll guard me, and you'll guide me . . .
