new single - Time Stands Still

 

      

Look andrea has my top :O :D  

New single possibly "Confidence For Quiet"

 

"We stood there for a while longer, neither of us knowing what to say.  Part of me wished i knew what he was thinking, but another part - the more astute part - was glad that i didn't.  Sometimes it's best to rely on your imagination.  Facts can let you down, but your mind will always look after you."
p. 150  Kevin Brooks - Lucas

Cause you are my satellite, So i'm trying to keep you in sight But with all this space Can we keep it alive Keep it alive So i'm asking you baby Are you coming down tonight?

 - Natalie Imbruglia - Satellite

There's something in the air tonight That feels right But you're keeping me guessing and i'm finding it hard to catch your eye So move a little closer It's alright I know what you're thinking You've been circling me for a while

 - Natalie Imbruglia - Satellite

Look inside and realize that
Real guys go for real down to Mars girls, yeah!

 - Outkast - Roses

"Everything is okay in the end, so if it's not okay, it's not the end"

In the heat of Summer sunshine
I kiss you And nobody needs to know

 - The Corrs - Summer Sunshine


Don't be angry, don't be sad
Don't sit crying over good times you had
There's a girl right next to you
And she's just waiting for something to do


And there's a rose in a fisted glove
And the eagle flies with the dove
And if you can't be with the one you love honey
Love the one you're with
 

Turn your heartache right into joy
She's a girl and you're a boy
So get it together make it nice
And you won't need anymore advice

- Will Young - Love The One You're Withsp

Hands down this is the best day I can ever remember
I'll always remember the sound of the stereo
The dim of the soft lights, the scent of your hair
That you twirled in your fingers
And the time on the clock when we realized it was so late
And this walk that we shared together
The streets were wet and the gate was locked
So I jumped it and let you in
And you stood at your door with your hands on my waist
And you kissed me like you meant it
And I knew, that you meant it
That you meant it, that you meant it
And I knew that you meant it, that you meant it
ace - Dashboard Confessional - Hands Down

 Heavens not a place that you go when you die, it's that moment in life when you actually feel alive, so live for the moment

- The Spill Canvas - The Tide space

You know when you've found it because you feel it when they take it away

space - Damien Rice - Amie

Opened my eyes today And I knew there's something different Saw you in a brand new way Like the clouds had somehow lifted And if yesterday I heard myself saying these words I would swear it was a lie.

- The Corrs - Hopelessly Addicted space

We might kiss when we are alone
When nobody's watching
I might take you home
We might make out when nobody's there
It's not that we're scared
It's just that it's delicate

space - Damien Rice - Delicate

It's these little things that stand the test of time.
I've saved the tickets from the shows that we've been to.
And a thousand other memories of you.

Will you be my best friend
if I offer you my heart?
'Cause it's already yours.
We could hang out every night
and watch the sun go down
as long as we could watch it rise again.

space - The Ataris - IOU One Galaxy

I want you here tonight I want you here / 'Cause I can't believe what I found / I want you here tonight want you here / Nothing is taking me down

space - Damien Rice - I Remember

Blue-eyed boy meets a brown-eyed girl / Woah-oh-oh the sweetest thing

 - U2 - The Sweetest Thing

I guess when it comes down to it, being grown up isn't half as fun as growing up.  These are the best days of our lives.  The only thing that matters is just following your heart.  And eventually you'll finally get it right.

- The Ataris - In This Diary space

And now I know that there's a link between the two - being close to craziness and being close to you

Katie Melua - Closest Thing To Crazys

Little lady, I think there's something
on your mind
I've known you long enough to know
The words are not that hard to find

And the harder you try and the
longer you go
Well there's nothing but love in those
eyes any more
You know what to say but you
never know how
You can keep your mouth shut because it
doesn't really matter right now

I will guide you all the way
Because I know exactly what you're
trying to say

 - Meatloaf - Couldn't Have Said It Better

(aaw it's like Cameron and Bella in Hollyoaks :-) (up until Bella left :-( ))

And its gonna be a long night And its gonna be cold without your arms And i'm gonna get stage fright caught in the headlights

 - The Corrs - Long Night

And we all sit round here in our home town
It's so good like this, these are times we'll miss
The memories, I hope they'll never fade
Glowing embers fly across the sky

 - Lostprophets - Last Summer

This is big time This is larger than life See the sparks fly when you're standing by my side Every step, every move, every thing i do, Life is beautiful because of you

 - Meatloaf - Because Of You

Sky blue, nothing to lose
(Girl) I want to get to know you
It's come from out of nowhere
All is changing; it's in the air

 - Ash - Out Of The Blue

After that the floodgates opened up
And I fell in love with everyone I saw

- Snow Patrol - Spitting Games space

My heart aches with a hunger
And the want that you were mine
No I cannot deny

So for one night
is it all right
That I give you

My heart  My love  My heart
Just for one night/../

When morning awakes me
Well I know I'll be alone
And I feel I'll be fine
So don't you worry about me
I'm not empty on my own
For inside I'm alive

 space- The Corrs - One Night

Just because I'm sorry doesn't mean I didn't enjoy it at the time

- Snow Patrol - Chocolate space

I can see inside you, the sickness is rising.  Don't try to deny what you feel.

space - The Disturbed - Down With The Sickness

Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday
Dancing on a Friday Night
Let the music smother me
Whole weekend recovery
Dancing on a Friday Night

- The Darkness - Friday Night space

Don't think that you're charming and the fact that your arm is now around my neck
Will get you in my pants, I'll have to kick your ass and make you never forget

- Avril Lavigne - Don't Tell Me spa

And if you turned around to see me,
And I was gone
You should have looked outside your window
'Cause the sun was coming up

space - Michelle Branch - Tuesday Morning

And I'd give up forever to touch you
'Cause I know that you feel me somehow
You're the closest to heaven that I'll
ever be
And I don't want to go home right now

And all I can taste is this moment
And all I can breathe is your life
'Cause sooner or later it's over
I just don't want to miss you tonight

- Goo Goo Dolls - Iris space

I find careful patterns in the snow
It seems you did come round but changed your mind
If you'd just take ten more steps to me
I won't ever ask you again

space - Snow Patrol - Wow

You've got me tempted by what's forbidden/.../You've got a hold on me (there's no escaping baby) Got to find the release

- Blue - Where You Want Mespace

ace

You see her You can't touch her You hear her You can't hold her You want her You can't have her You want to But she won't let you

SCREEN SHOT HERE :S

 

Please note this page gets weirder as it goes on.  i like to burble.

 

 

s t e p h

- my name is spelt with a small 's' at the start because i think it looks too top-heavy with a capital.

Yer so i did A level English but so what it's my name.

i don't put capital 'i's either because i think everything looks better in lowercase.

oh and i can't stand people who use apostrophes wrongly, e.g they put "cd's" - sooooo annoying.

right also i can't stand the font Times New Roman - its so boring and ugly and actually makes things less appealing to read.

 

 

 

Mickey Mouse's original drawings used circles for his head, body and ears. 1939's "The Pointer" saw a bold, new design for Mickey as his body became more pear-shaped and pupils were added to his eyes to increase his range of expression.

Later on, animators of the 1940s would add a perspective aspect to his ears, giving them a three-dimensional effect. This change, however, was short-lived.

The Mickey Mouse of today appears much as he did in the early days with the exception of a costume change here and there.

This could be the very minute
I'm aware I'm alive
All these places feel like home

With a name I'd never chosen
I can make my first steps
As a child of 25

This is the straw, final straw in the
Roof of my mouth as I lie to you
Just because I'm sorry doesn't mean
I didn't enjoy it at the time

You're the only thing that I love
It scares me more every day
On my knees I think clearer

Goodness knows I saw it coming
Or at least I'll claim I did
But in truth I'm lost for words

What have I done it's too late for that
What have become truth is nothing yet
A simple mistake starts the hardest time
I promise I'll do anything you ask...this time
