"The woods are lovely, dark and deep, but I have promises to keep, and miles to go before I sleep, and miles to go before I sleep."

"Miles from nowhere, guess I'll take my time
Oh yeah, to reach there"

Cat Stevens
 
I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.

move me on to any black square
use me any time you want,
just remember that the goal
for us all is to capture,
only once

the house by the side of the road

by Sam Walter Foss (1858-1911)

There are hermit souls that live withdrawn
In the peace of their self-content;
There are souls, like stars, that dwell apart,
In a fellowless firmament;
There are pioneer souls that blaze their paths
Where highways never ran;-
But let me live by the side of the road
And be a friend to man.

Let me live in a house by the side of the road,
Where the race of men go by-
The men who are good and the men who are bad,
As good and as bad as I.
I would not sit in the scorner's seat,
Or hurl the cynic's ban;-
Let me live in a house by the side of the road
And be a friend to man.

I see from my house by the side of the road,
By the side of the highway of life,
The men who press with the ardor of hope,
The men who are faint with the strife.
But I turn not away from their smiles nor their tears-
Both parts of an infinite plan;-
Let me live in my house by the side of the road
And be a friend to man.

I know there are brook-gladdened meadows ahead
And mountains of wearisome height;
That the road passes on through the long afternoon
And stretches away to the night.
But still I rejoice when the travelers rejoice,
And weep with the strangers that moan,
Nor live in my house by the side of the road
Like a man who dwells alone.

Let me live in my house by the side of the road
Where the race of men go by-
They are good, they are bad, they are weak, they are strong,
Wise, foolish- so am I.
Then why should I sit in the scorner's seat
Or hurl the cynic's ban?-
Let me live in my house by the side of the road
And be a friend to man.

Our house, is a very very very fine house,
with two cats in the yard, life used to be so hard
now everything is easy 'cause of you,
and now, I'll light the fire, while you plant the flowers
in the vase, that you bought, today

remember way back then when
Everything was true and when
We would have such a very good time
Such a fine time
Such a happy time
And I remember how we'd play
Simply waste the day away
Then we'd say
Nothing would come between us
Two dreamers

Madness - Our House.
 
Man on the Train: I haven't seen too many around lately. Things have been tough lately for dreamers. They say dreaming is dead, no one does it anymore. It's not dead it's just that it's been forgotten, removed from our language. Nobody teaches it so nobody knows it exists. The dreamer is banished to obscurity. Well, I'm trying to change all that, and I hope you are too. By dreaming, every day. Dreaming with our hands and dreaming with our minds. Our planet is facing the greatest problems it's ever faced, ever. So whatever you do, don't be bored, this is absolutely the most exciting time we could have possibly hoped to be alive. And things are just starting.

from Richard Linkletter's Waking Life

Oh my!! This could get CrAAAAyyyaaazZZeeee!!!! And who turned/tuned up the thermostat around the forums? Damn. You know?

Even though we ain't got money, I'm so in love with you honey
and everything will bring a chain of love...
In the morning when I rise, you bring a tear of joy to my eyes
and tell me everything is gonna be alright.

Happy is the man, who has broken the chains which hurt the mind, and has given up worrying once and for all...

Rise up this mornin',
Smiled with the risin' sun,
Three little birds
Pitch by my doorstep
Singin' sweet songs
Of melodies pure and true,
Sayin', ("This is my message to you-ou-ou:")

Singin': "Don't worry 'bout a thing,
'Cause every little thing gonna be all right."
Singin': "Don't worry (don't worry) 'bout a thing,
'Cause every little thing gonna be all right!"

(Bob Marley and the Wailers--Three Little Birds)

You got a fast car
But is it fast enough so we can fly away
We gotta make a decision
We leave tonight or live and die this way

I remember we were driving driving in your car
The speed so fast I felt like I was drunk
City lights lay out before us
And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder
And I had a feeling that I belonged
And I had a feeling I could be someone, be someone, be someone

-from Fast Car by Tracy Chapman

To avoid complications
She never kept the same address
In conversation
She spoke just like a baroness
Met a man from China
Went down to Geisha Minah
Then again incidentally
If you're that way inclined

Perfume came naturally from Paris
For cars she couldn't care less
Fastidious and precise

She's a Killer Queen
Gunpowder, gelatine
Dynamite with a laser beam
Guaranteed to blow your mind
Anytime

Recommended at the price
Insatiable bon appetite
Wanna try?

- from "Killer Queen", performed by Queen (Freddie Mercury on vocals, Brian May on lead guitar)
 
(speakin of killer queens)

I am what I am
I am my own special creation.
So come take a look,
Give me the hook or the ovation.
It's my world that I want to take a little pride in,
My world, and it's not a place I have to hide in.
Life's not worth a damn,
'Til you can say, "Hey world, I am what I am."
I am what I am,
I don't want praise, I don't want pity.
I bang my own drum,
Some think it's noise, I think it's pretty.
And so what, if I love each feather and each spangle,
Why not try to see things from a diff'rent angle?
Your life is a sham 'til you can shout out loud
I am what I am!
I am what I am
And what I am needs no excuses.
I deal my own deck
Sometimes the ace, sometimes the deuces.
There's one life, and there's no return and no deposit;
One life, so it's time to open up your closet.
Life's not worth a damn 'til you can say,
"Hey world, I am what I am!"

I am what I am ` la cage aux folles
 
I'm not aware of too many things
I know what I know if you know what I mean

Philosophy, is the talk on a cereal box
Religion, is a smile on a dog
I'm not aware of too many things
i know what I know if you know what I mean

Choke me in the shallow water
Before I get too deep

What I am is what I am are you what you are or what
What I am is what I am are you what you are or what

Oh I'm not aware of too many things
I know what I know if you know what I mean

Philosophy, is a walk on the slippery rocks
Religion, is a light in the fog
I'm not aware of too many things
I know what I know if you know what I mean
Do do ya

Choke me in the shallow water
Before I get too deep
Chuck me in the shallow water
Before I get too deep

(Edie Brickell and the New Bohemians, What I Am, from Shooting Rubber Bands at the Stars)
 
My religion is the voice of your heart
Always looking for a minimum sign
My religion is the voice of your heart
I really need ya, don’t let me down

Give me just a little chance
Give me just a little time
I’ve been waiting so long
All I need is your love
Give me just a little something
Give me just a little chance
Give me just a little time
I’ve been waiting so long
All I need is your love
Give me just a little something

You are my philosophy
My believes my everything
You are my philosophy
And I’m gonna get you
You know what I mean

Give me just a little chance...

...........
Philosophy ~ RBD
 
I'm in love for the first time
Don't you know it's going to last--
It's a love that'll last forever,
It's a love that has no past.

Don't let me down...

(Lennon-McCartney)
 
I can show you I can show you some of the people in my life
I can show you I can show you some of the people in my life
It's driving me mad just another way of passing the day
I, I get so lonely when she's not there
I...

Turn it on, turn it on, turn it on again
Turn it on, turn it on, turn it on again
I can see another face
Turn it on, turn it on, turn it on again
I can see another face
Turn it on, turn it on, turn it on again

-Turn It On Again, performed by Genesis (Phil Collins, Mike Rutherford and Tony Banks)
