Orange Moon- Erykah Badu

Here you go Dreamfunk


Many nights he was alone
Many, many, many nights
His light was so bright that they turned away
And he stood alone
Every night and every day
Then he turned to me
He saw his reflection in me
And he smiled at me when he turned to me
Then he said to me

How good it is, how good it is
How good it is, how good it is

I'm an Orange Moon
I'm brighter than before
Brighter than ever before
I'm an Orange Moon and I shine so bright
Cause I reflect the light of my sun
I praise the day, he turned my way
And smiled at me
He gets to smile and I get to be orange, that I love to be

How good it is, how good it is
How good it is, how good it is
How good it is, how good it is
How good it is, how good it is

(Oh...)
Shine so bright
(Oh...)
He ruled the day, I ruled the night
(Oh...)
Shine, shine, shine
(Oh...)

How good it is, how good it is
How good it is, how good it is
How good it is, how good it is
How good he is, how god is
How good it is, how good it is
How good it is, how god is
How good it is, how good it is

I'm an orange moon
I'm brighter than before, brighter
Reflecting the light of the sun
Smile at me

:peace:

reasons for the word why we love on ya'll for instant how ya' take us and lift
us up and give us chance after chance and we still find a way to to F-things up
and sometimes ya'll go and blame yourselves for thing's we do cause you love us
so much our lies become the truth ya'll try so
so hard to make things work finding a way to smile just to keep from showing
your hurt within...

This song is by the beautiful Norah Jones:luvv:

Shoot the Moon- Norah Jones

The summer days are gone too soon
You shoot the moon
And miss completely
And now you're left to face the gloom
The empty room that once smelled sweetly
Of all the flowers you plucked if only
You knew the reason
Why you had to each be lonely
Was it just the season?

Now the fall is here again
You can't begin to give in
It's all over

When the snows come rolling through
You're rolling too with some new lover
Will you think of times you've told me
That you knew the reason
Why we had to each be lonely
It was just the season
 
This is mad old school!

"Perfect Match" by the EFX (Schooldaze Sdtk).



My skin is brown
hummingbirds sang from tree to tree
90 miles from the nearest town
and you loved me.

Exotic flowers all around
Sent something chilling through my head
Sight, sound, and furor played with our senses
The fire started slowly-how swiftly it spread.

We packed a picnic and drove to the beach
mesmerized by each other, oblivious to time
The good life was within our reach as we lay in the water baptizing body and mind.
