where is the love by black eyed peas or gone going by black eyed peas ft. jack Johnson .
here is the lyrics :
Johnny wanna be a big star
Get on stage and play the guitar
Make a little money, buy a fancy car
Big old house and an alligator
Just to match with them alligator shoes
He’s a rich man so he’s no longer singing the blues
He’s singing songs about material things
And platinum rings and watches that go bling
But, diamonds don’t bling in the dark
He a star now, but he ain’t singing from the heart
Sooner or later he’s just gonna fall apart
Coz his fans can’t relate to his new found art
He ain’t doing what he did from the start
And that’s putting in some feeling and thought
He decided to live his life shallow
Passion is love for material
[Chorus]
And its gone… gone… going…
Gone… everything gone… give a damn…
Gone be the birds when they don’t want to sing…
Gone people… up awkward with their things… gone.
You see yourself in the mirror
And you feel safe coz it looks familiar
But you afraid to open up your soul
Coz you don’t really know, don’t really know
Who is, the person that’s deep within
Coz you are content with just being the naôve brown man
And you fail to see that its trivial
Insignificant, you addicted to material
I’ve seen your kind before
Your the type that thinks souls is sold in a store
Packaged up with inscent sticks
With them vegetarian meals
To you that’s righteous
You’re fiction like books
You need to go out to life and look
Coz… what happens when they take your material
You already sold your soul and its…
[Chorus]
You say that time is money and money is time
So you got mind in your money and your money on your mind
But what about… that crime that you did to get paid
And what about… that bid, you can’t take it to your brain
Why you on about those shoes you’ll wear today
They’ll do no good on the bridges you’ve walked along the way
All that money that you got gonna be gone
That gear that you rock gonna be gone
The house up on the hill gonna be gone
The gold — on your grill gonna be gone
The ice on your wrist gonna be gone
That nice little Miss gonna be gone
That whip that you roll gonna be gone
And what’s worst is your soul will be gone
Well, I love the lyrics to Jack Johnson’s “Upside Down”
Also;
“I’ll Follow You Into The Dark” Death Cab for Cutie
“How To Save A Life” The Fray
“Soul Meets Body” Death Cab For Cutie
“Don’t Worry Be Happy” Bobby McFerrin (listen to it!! they are meaningful!!)
i would say Playground Love by Air- the way he sings it is haunting,
Playground Love
I’m a high school lover, and you’re my favorite flavor.
Love is all, all my soul.
You’re my Playground Love.
Yet my hands are shaking.
I feel my body [remain tense], no matter, I’m on fire.
On the playground, love.
You’re the piece of gold the flushes all my soul.
Extra time, on the ground.
You’re my Playground Love.
Anytime, anyway,
You’re my Playground Love.
ino, they dont look that good…but u have to listen to it.
okay there’s this song that relient k has on thier MMHMM album (2004)
they lyric goes
“if the burden seems too much to bear
remember the end will justify the pain it took to get us there”
that’s the song “let it all out”
Julie was a long way from home
She could make alone look pretty
Her attitude made a part of the landscape
Riding her bike through Alphabet City
She likes to party in the backseat
Under the bridge on the Brooklyn side
Smoking cigarettes in the afterglow
Taking bets that the sun won’t rise
She said, “what good is tomorrow without a guarantee?”
She can lick her lips and smile
And make you wannabelieve
That the consequences of your actions really are just a game
That your life is just a chain reaction taking you day by day
She says nothing’s forever in this crazy world
Still I’m falling in love with the right now poster girl
Right now right now
Oooh
Oh ohh
Julie liked to shoplift in stores
Ride alongside the rich and famous
Get in elevators, press emergency stop
And make love on the floor ’til the camera made us
And no woman in the world ever made me feel like my heart’s on fire
Where she’d walk I followed (followed)
When she left I cried
What good is tomorrow without a guarantee?
I was wrapped around her finger
And I began to believe
That the consequences of your actions really are just a game
That your life is just a chain reaction taking you day by day
She says nothing’s forever in this crazy world
Still I’m falling in love with the right now poster girl
That the consequences of your actions really are just a game
That your life is just a chain reaction taking you day by day
She says nothing’s forever in this crazy world (crazy world)
Still I’m falling in love with the right now poster girl
La la la la
La la la la
La la la la la (la la la la la)
La la la la
La la la la (la la la la)
La la la la la
Oh
Tell me what you want from me
I’ve got everything you need
It’s getting hard for me to breathe
Let me be your guarantee
That the consequences of your actions really are just a game
That your life is just a chain reaction taking you day by day
She says nothing’s forever in this crazy world
Still I’m falling in love with the right now poster girl
That the consequences (poster girl) of your actions really are just a game
That your life is just a chain reaction taking you day by day
She says nothing’s forever in this crazy world (crazy world)
Still I’m falling in love with the right now poster girl
Right now right now
Right now ohhh ohh
Poster girl
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Poster girl yeah
Come on come on yeah
I think it’s best.
“Keane – Somewhere Only We Know”
I walked across an empty land
I knew the pathway like the back of my hand
I felt the earth beneath my feet
Sat by the river and it made me complete
Oh simple thing where have you gone?
I’m getting old and I need something to rely on
So tell me when you’re gonna let me in
I’m getting tired and I need somewhere to begin
I came across a fallen tree
I felt the branches of it looking at me?
Is this the place we used to love?
Is this the place that I’ve been dreaming of?
Oh simple thing where have you gone?
I’m getting old and I need something to rely on
So tell me when you’re gonna let me in
I’m getting tired and I need somewhere to begin
So if you have a minute why don’t we go
Talk about it somewhere only we know?
This could be the end of everything
So why don’t we go
Somewhere only we know?
Oh simple thing where have you gone?
I’m getting old and I need something to rely on
So tell me when you’re gonna let me in
I’m getting tired and I need somewhere to begin
So if you have a minute why don’t we go
Talk about it somewhere only we know?
This could be the end of everything
So why don’t we go
So why don’t we go
This could be the end of everything
So why don’t we go
Somewhere only we know?
So you sailed away
Into a grey sky morning
Now I’m here to stay
Love can be so boring
Nothing’s quite the same now
I just say your name now
Chorus
But it’s not so bad
You’re only the best I ever had
You don’t want me back
You’re just the best I ever had
So you stole my world
Now I’m just a phony
Remembering the girl
Leaves me down and lonely
Send it in a letter
Make yourself feel better
Chorus
But it’s not so bad
You’re only the best I ever had
You don’t need me back
You’re just the best I ever had
And it may take some time to
Patch me up inside
But I can’t take it so I
Run away and hide
And I may find in time that
You were always right
You’re always right
So you sailed away
Into a grey sky morning
Now I’m here to stay
Love can be so boring
What was it you wanted
Could it be I’m haunted
Chorus
But it’s not so bad
You’re only the best I ever had
I don’t want you back
You’re just the best I ever had
The best I ever had
The best I ever
Does it have to be in that time period? I’m not sure when these songs were made. :/

Comments on best song lyrics?\meaning-full lyrics? »
depends on the mood you want to set
Romantic, thoughtful, nostalgic?
Different songs for different moods.
I love this from the song “the tide” by the spill canvas:
“Heaven’s not a place that you go when you die
It’s that moment in life when you actually feel alive”

2005 Best I Ever Had by Gary Allan
So you sailed away
Into a grey sky morning
Now I’m here to stay
Love can be so boring
Nothing’s quite the same now
