My new favorite song...

I'm so tired of being here
suppressed by all my childish fears
and if you have to leave
I wish that you would just leave
your presence still lingers here
and it won't leave me alone

these wounds won't seem to heal
this pain is just too real
there's just too much that time cannot erase

when you'd cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
when you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
and i've held your hand through all of these years
but you still have all of me

you used to captivate me
by your resonating light
but now I'm bound by the life you left behind
your face it haunts my once pleasant dreams
your voice it chased away all the sanity in me

these wounds won't seem to heal
this pain is just too real
there's just too much that time cannot erase

when you'd cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
when you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
and I've held your hand through all of these years
but you still have all of me

I've tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone
but though you're still with me
I've been alone all along

when you'd cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
when you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
and I've held your hand through all of these years
but you still have all of me
me, me....

or how about:

Yes indeed I'm alone again
And here comes emptiness crashing in
It's either love or hate
I can't find in between
Cause I've been with witches
And I have been with a queen

It wouldn't have worked out any way
So now it's just another lonely day
Further along we just may
But for now it's just another lonely day

Wish there was something
I could say or do
I can resist anything
But temptation from you
But I'd rather walk alone
Than chase you around
I'd rather fall myself
Than let you drag me down

It wouldn't have worked out any way
And now it's just another lonely day
Further along we just may
But for now it's just another lonely day

Yesterday seems like a life ago
Cause the one I love
Today I hardly know
You I held so close in my heart oh dear
Grow further from me
With every fallen tear

It wouldn't have worked out any way
So now it's just another lonely day
Further along we just may
But for now it's just another lonely day

Ben Harper fans unite! And I'll repeat what I said in a thread a few days ago - you have to see him live.

I have... at The Gorge (in Washington) with Jack Johnson. One of the best concerts I've ever gone to. He ended the concert with "Another Lonely Day" right after it got dark. Everyone took out their lighters (those who had them anyway).

when you find the right one, this could be your new favorite song

Sugar magnolia, blossoms blooming, heads all empty and I don?t care,
Saw my baby down by the river, knew she?d have to come up soon for air.

Sweet blossom come on, under the willow, we can have high times if you?ll abide
We can discover the wonders of nature, rolling in the rushes down by the riverside.

She?s got everything delightful, she?s got everything I need,
Takes the wheel when I?m seeing double, pays my ticket when I speed

She comes skimmin? through rays of violet, she can wade in a drop of dew,
She don?t come and I don?t follow, waits backstage while I sing to you.

Well, she can dance a cajun rhythm, jump like a willys in four wheel drive.
She?s a summer love for spring, fall and winter. she can make happy any man alive.

Sugar magnolia, ringing that bluebell, caught up in sunlight, come on out singing
I?ll walk you in the sunshine, come on honey, come along with me.

She?s got everything delightful, she?s got everything I need,
A breeze in the pines and the sun and bright moonlight, lazing in the sunshine yes
Indeed.

Sometimes when the cuckoo?s crying, when the moon is half way down,
Sometimes when the night is dying, I take me out and I wander around, I wander
?round.

Sunshine, daydream, walking in the tall trees, going where the wind goes
Blooming like a red rose, breathing more freely,
Ride our singin?, I?ll walk you in the morning sunshine
Sunshine, daydream. sunshine, daydream. walking in the sunshine.

the version without them playing the guitars (like in the video) is good. just her and piano.
