Hold My Hand : Hootie and the Blowfish

Wondering, contemplating in solitude or is it loneliness. This song surfaced suddenly from the deepest depths of my memory. Popped up just like anything and I smiled for a change.

With a little love, and some tenderness
We'll walk upon the water
We'll rise above this mess
With a little peace, and some harmony
We'll take the world together
We'll take 'em by the hand

'Cause I've got a hand for you
'Cause I wanna run with you

Yesterday, I saw you standing there
Your head was down, your eyes were red
No comb had touched your hair
I said get up, and let me see you smile
We'll take a walk together
Walk the road awhile, 'cause

'Cause I've got a hand for you
I've got a hand for you
'Cause I wanna run with you
Won't you let me run with you? yeah

Hold my hand
Want you to hold my hand
Hold my hand
I'll take you to a place where you can be
Hold my hand
Anything you wanna be because
I wanna love you the best that, the best that I can

See I was wasted, and I was wasting time
'Till I thought about your problems, I thought about your crimes
Then I stood up, and then I screamed aloud
I don't wanna be part of your problems
Don't wanna be part of your crowd, no

'Cause I've got a hand for you
I've got a hand for you
'Cause I wanna run with you
Ah, won't you let me run with you?

Hold my hand
Want you to hold my hand
Hold my hand
I'll take you to the promised land
Hold my hand
Maybe we can't change the world but
I wanna love you the best that, the best that I can, yeah

Hold my hand
Want you to hold my hand
Hold my hand
I'll take you to a place where you can be
Hold my hand
Anything you wanna be because
I...Oh...No, No, No, No, No

Hold my hand
Want you to hold my hand
Hold my hand
I'll take you to the promised land
Hold my hand
Maybe we can't change the world but
I wanna love you the best that, best that I can
Oh, The best that I can

The World is Flat : Thomas Friedman

Finally after three years of lying in my book shelf, this book saw its day light. Now I know why people like this book. An great insight into the flat world, mostly global in approach in writing with a bit of American view point. Nevertheless a good read.

Pious in Togetherness

Pious in the togetherness..
The world of our own..
In which no one else intrudes..
Let it be my dear..
That we do not infringe..
The beauty created ..
But cherish and enjoy..
To the fullest and to contentment..

Knowing Your Thoughts

A beautiful chilly morning..
Slept after a long while to my hearts content..
Strangely today I feel liberated...
For all I ever wanted is for us to converse..
And when I now know your mind..
I don't mind at all..
I understand you better...
Since with us there is no one else but us..
No external force..
For I understand your needs and wants and desires..
I let me tell you my dear..
You haven't made me do anything...
Which I did not wanted to do...
All I desire is that the time we have with each other...
We know each other from inside out..
With no hesitation and guilt..
No second thoughts...
No inhibition...
Wow knowing your thoughts..
Is so much better that me trying to figure it out ..

Would you stand up and walk out on me.

No Second thoughts

For d fear of not getting you tomorrow..
I am hear as a hopeless but pure amateur poet..
I come to you O my love...
To praise you to my hearts content..
A moment of yours...
A glimpse of your heart..
A smile on your face..
Makes every day of mine so worth living..
All I am today..
Is a person who misses..
The warmth of your warm embrace...
The embrace which had no hesitation..
No second thoughts..

Stop Dragging My Heart Around

Several versions, original or cover available. Although I haven't seen all but my limited musical receptors tell me that the one by Rob Thomas and Joss Stone has to be up there among the best.

So youve had a little trouble in town
Now youre keeping some demons down
Stop draggin my...
Stop draggin my...
Stop draggin my heart around

Its hard to think about what youve wanted
Its hard to think about what youve lost
This doesnt have to be the big get even
This doesnt have to be anything at all

I know you really want to tell me good-bye
I know you really want to be your own girl

Baby you could never look me in the eye
Yeah you buckle with the weight of the words
Stop draggin my...
Stop draggin my...
Stop draggin my heart around

Theres people running round loose in the world
Aint got nothin better to do
Than make a meal of some bright eyed kid
You need someone looking after you

I know you really want to tell me goodbye
I know you really want to be your own girl

Baby you could never look me in the eye
Yeah you buckle with the weight of the words
Stop draggin my...
Stop draggin my...
Stop draggin my heart around

Stop draggin my heart around

Journey

From pious..
To repulsion..
A state of elation..
To a state of loathing..
A journey to me which makes no sense..
I will always be perturbed..
When this path was undertaken..
How can I eat..
How can I sleep..
How can I even smile..
Knowing that you are not comfortable anymore..
The only thing which you were with me was comfortable..
Now you are no more..
How did it happen..
When did it happen..
A question which troubles my soul..
Even every madness has a method..
Then what is the method which i cannot fathom..
What is the counselor which made me see u in light so bad..
All I can say is I loath my soul..
Like I have never before..
All I can do is nothing..
Cause I don't know what to rectify..
I don't know my dear...
But I like like you so much..
I cant help but get troubled by it..
N there is no peace till I get that trust back..

The Pixar Touch: David A Price, The Google Story : David A Wise

The Pixar Touch.. David A Price..The Google Story..David A Wise..Different work Ethics..Glimpses of corporate structure and battle..The journey to what they have become..Plenty to learn. Liked Pixar Touch better for it revealed more and google being google, the book also behaved liked one. Some day just some day within my limitations when I know, something will come up, something shall get created defined by neither of the work ethics but by the notion of love, romance and music. Confused with the characteristic of my vision but the time shall come when it will be done.

The Call: Regina Skeptor

Ain't it true. The thought provoked, the emotion stated confluence to create a hope. A battle of everyday life.Overcoming weariness, lost on translation. But we stand ground amidst the ruins of change to create and influence by the childlike radiance inside us. Is it not the time to fight back than to give up. Embracing the past and the future when the channels get created. This my friend is romance

YouTube Link

It started out as a feeling
Which then grew into a hope
Which then turned into a quiet thought
Which then turned into a quiet word

And then that word grew louder and louder
'Til it was a battle cry

I'll come back
When you call me
No need to say goodbye

Just because everything's changing
Doesn't mean it's never
Been this way before

All you can do is try to know
Who your friends are
As you head off to the war

Pick a star on the dark horizon
And follow the light

You'll come back
When it's over
No need to say good bye

You'll come back
When it's over
No need to say good bye

Now we're back to the beginning
It's just a feeling and no one knows yet
But just because they can't feel it too
Doesn't mean that you have to forget

Let your memories grow stronger and stronger
'Til they're before your eyes

You'll come back
When they call you
No need to say good bye

You'll come back
When they call you
No need to say good bye

To Love You

Why it happened I don't know..
But it happened..
I tried not to...
But Still I fell in love with you..
It seemed you liked me too..
All the time the only thing I tried..
All the time the only thing I thought about...
That you feel happy too..
All the time I made sure that you are most COMFORTABLE..
N Somehow now u feel otherwise..
Only if I knew...
Why ??..
Only If I knew where did I go wrong..
I don't even know what to do..
But hopefully some day you will feel about me too..
Cause I cherish you my lady...
And I like like you from the purest of my heart..
Which has no fault and no blame..
My feelings for you ..
Emancipate from the part of my heart with no other intent but to love you..

Fool

What a repulsion I am..
A character worth invisible..
Rather than acceptable..
All the time...
You had it your ways..
My feeling to you is not worth considering..
But here I am..
Like a fool, loving you like no one else would..

Touch of Your Cloak

It always puzzles me..
Why you resist me your hard..
Just a touch of your cloak..
Is what I was bestowed upon..
Although I am parched..
And thirst million times more..
But I am happy to have managed to obtain
Just a shadow of yours..
Coz I know for those who are angelic..
Can heal just by the touch of there goodwill..

Luck

Like a Headless Chicken..
I move around...
Panged by my desires unknown..
The call I make..
Has no response..
Makes the light inside me flicker..
Only to make it burn even brighter..
The plans in which, I have no part..
Hopefully the luck of chance will prove me wrong..

Blowin' In The Wind: Katie Melua

A legendary song by a legendary musician. Covered by Katie Melua. Liked the version for several reason but leave it to you to find your own reason :)

Blowin' In The Wind

How many roads must a man walk down
Before you call him a man?
Yes, 'n' how many seas must a white dove sail
Before she sleeps in the sand?
Yes, 'n' how many times must the cannon balls fly
Before they're forever banned?
The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind,
The answer is blowin' in the wind.

How many years can a mountain exist
Before it's washed to the sea?
Yes, 'n' how many years can some people exist
Before they're allowed to be free?
Yes, 'n' how many times can a man turn his head,
Pretending he just doesn't see?
The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind,
The answer is blowin' in the wind.

How many times must a man look up
Before he can see the sky?
Yes, 'n' how many ears must one man have
Before he can hear people cry?
Yes, 'n' how many deaths will it take till he knows
That too many people have died?
The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind,
The answer is blowin' in the wind.

Destiny

Something which we left way back...
For in our heart we could not keep track...
Its now time to create the pack...

For the hour is so near...
That I Fear...
The moment not seized now...
Will be lost forever ...

We went through so many talk..
But are unable to walk...
Why I ask my soul...
For who did we do all so...

Who do I fear shall I ask...
For are we not the dreamers..
In love with a notion...

Here I come to tell..
That the things lost will be regained..
One by One...
Piece by Piece...
Inch by Inch...
There will be a forward march...
But not a slow one...
For our rate will beat up the giant leaps..

For the time has come...
For us to get what we want...
No more driven by fate...
No more slowed by our own inadequacies..
But simply getting what we desire...
For their is nothing wrong in wanting...
Nothing wrong in doing everything to get it...
And we will surprise ourself with execution..

Why you may ask ??
The sudden urge such as these...
Simple ....
For me time is running out...
N I shall not sit back....
But create my own destiny...

Yes this is what it is going to be...
Our destiny...
Now is the time to move ahead...
Not to hope things happen...
But MAKE things happen...

You will see the results in coming weeks....
Nah not in coming week ...
But just a week....

Pieces Of You : Jewel

Not the typical of lyrics inspired post but more so because on a Monday morning her voice refreshed me and the ease of the style of singing was calming. Irony that the lyrics may actually not suggest so.

You Tube

She's an ugly girl, does it make you want to kill her?
She's an ugly girl, do you want to kick in her face?
She's an ugly girl, she doesn't pose a threat.
She's an ugly girl, does she make you feel safe?
Ugly girl, ugly girl, do you hate her
'Cause she's pieces of you?
She's a pretty girl, does she make you think nasty thoughts?
She's a pretty girl, do you want to tie her down?
She's a pretty girl, do you call her a bitch?
She's a pretty girl, did she sleep with your whole town?
Pretty girl, pretty girl, do you hate her
'Cause she's pieces of you?
You say he's a faggot, does it make you want to hurt him?
You say he's a faggot, do you want to bash in his brain?
You say he's a faggot, does he make you sick to our stomach?
You say he's a faggot, are you afraid you're just the same?
Faggot, Faggot, do you hate him
'Cause he's pieces of you?
You say he's a Jew, does it mean that he's tight?
You say he's a Jew, do you want to hurt his kids tonight?
You say he's a Jew, he'll never wear that funny hat again.
You say he's a Jew, as though being born were a sin.
Oh Jew, oh Jew, do you hate him
'Cause he's pieces of you?
