Your Name In Lyrics

Megan -The Smoking Pipes (just pretend the H is in there Your Name In Lyrics )

Butter on a summer day
When she's around
I was on the tracks
When the gates came down
When suddenly I recognized
Those bloodshot rearview mirror eyes as mine

And I heard that whistle call my name
And I almost drove away
But Megan I had a feeling that you would be on that train
So I just waited there for you


Caught a ride to another town
Where the air was clean
And the sun never goes down
Everyone was standing in a line
Between the landing and the stairs

I heard somebody call my name
I almost climbed the stairs
But Megan I had a feeling that someday you'd meet me there
So I just waited there for you

Butter on a summer day
When I hear your name
It's a dream that never came true
So I sat down on the tracks
And waited for a train to take me back to you

And somebody came and took my hand
And I finally had to go
But Megan I just want you to know
That I waited as long as I could

I'm butter on a summer day when she's around

MWAH! -Meghan

re: Your Name In Lyrics

Emily by Bowling for Soup

It wasn't supposed to be like this
Another dose of unhappiness
I gave it all and managed to get shot down yet again
So I got drunk
Had sex with all your friends
You told me to never call your house again

Emily, you saved the day
Emily, when you threw me away

She was always such a pretty girl
Nobody like her in the world
A little piece of heavenly
That no one else could stand
I see her in my dreams at night
I see you when I close my eyes
I just can't seem to shake you, Emily


You got your money and I got cast
Outside thrown out on my ass
In the city with no one else, no where else to go
So I hooked up with this model from Singapore
Emily, I sure am glad you didn't want me anymore


She was always such a pretty girl
Nobody like her in the world
A little piece of heavenly
That no one else could stand
I see her in my dreams at night
I see you when I close my eyes
I just can't seem to shake you, Emily
Yeah

Emily, you saved the day
Emily, you saved the day
Emily, you saved my ass


Am I cut out to spend my time this way?

re: Your Name In Lyrics

So...I did a google search...and I found this band...with a song with my exact name. First and last. O_O

So...google results (I never have heard any of these songs...):

Dear Heather ~ Leonard Cohen
Heather ~ Vinyl Candy
Heather ~ Paul McCartney

Or, if I search Real Rhapsody, I get about 300 songs. I'm not going through them...

Now, in musicals...I'm not sure.

Allie, you forgot RENT OBCR La Vie Boheme A. re: Your Name In Lyrics It's mentioned...once...not really in song. Haha

re: Your Name In Lyrics

well, 'Andrea' is mentioned like twice in the Ball song from Once On This Island.

there is a song called "Andrea" by MXPX.

actually, just went on itunes and there are a lot of songs with Andrea in them. but never heard of any.
<--- the set of A Midsummer Night's Dream that I was assistant stage manager for during the 2007 season at the STNJ outdoor stage.

You must remember all the same that at the crux of every game is knowing when it's time to leave the table... And it's important to be artful in your exit. No turning back, you must accept the con is done... It was a ball, it was a blast. And it's a shame it couldn't last. But every chapter has to end, you must agree.
~Dirty Rotten Scoundrels~

There's a special kind of people known as show people. We live in a world full of dreams. Sometimes we're not too certain what's false and what's real. But we're seldom in doubt about what we feel.

It is a far, far better thing I do, than I have ever done; it is a far, far better rest I go to, than I have ever known.

o_0...the joys of google.

Marlene On The Wall
Suzanne Vega

Even if I am in love with you
All this to say, what's it to you?
Observe the blood, the rose tattoo
Of the fingerprints on me from you

Other evidence has shown
That you and I are still alone
We skirt around the danger zone
And don't talk about it later

Marlene watches from the wall
Her mocking smile says it all
As the records the rise and fall
Of every soldier passing

But the only soldier now is me
I'm fighting things I cannot see
I think it's called my destiny
That I am changing

Marlene on the wall

I walk to your house in the afternoon
By the butcher shot with the sawdust strewn
"Don't give away the goods too soon"
Is waht she might have told me

Marlene watches from the wall
Her mocking smile says it all
As the records the rise and fall
Of every man who's been here

But the only one here now is me
I'm fighting things I cannot see
I think it's called my destiny
That I am changing

Marlene on the wall

Or there's always Lili Marlene...where my name is actually pronounced correctly.

re: Your Name In Lyrics

this is all i could find.... i've never even heard of this song before.

Mr. and Mrs. McGill,
they had a daughter, and when they got her,
all their relations and friends
wanted to name her after each other.

Aunts and uncles, moms and dads, even the neighbor's dog
all had names to give the child that they insisted on!

So Mr. and Mrs. McGill
took their suggestions into the study,
and after a week they came out
with an announcement for everybody.

They named her...
Lisa Lee Elizabeth Amanda Francis Jill
Georgette Suzette Luette Edwina Gina Terry Tina Wilamina
Mindy Cindy Lauren Wendy Sandra Donna Lil
Michelle Druzella Ariella Stella Shishkebab
McGill

Once Lisa's teacher at school gave her some
paper to write her name on,
and by the
time she was through
her brand new pencil was half an inch long!

All her life when she filled forms for anything official
those tiny squares drove Lisa nuts... last name, first name, middle initial!

At Lisa's college graduation
her name took pages inside the program,
but there was one other person
whose name was longer than Lisa Lee's,

and his was...
Tom Paul John Bartholomew Alfonzo Ricky Shane
Moe Mickey Larry Barry Barney Jerry Terry Eric Duane
Beau Derrick Melvin Milton Maximillian Zachariah Kane
Joe William Eddie Teddie Fred Spaghetti Sheldon Eldon
Payne.

Well, it was love at first sight,
and when she met him she knew for sure then
that she had found "Mr. Right."
They started planning a simple wedding.

The invitations had to be as large as window shades
just to give them room enough to publish both their names.

Now Lisa Lee's lucky groom
had scores of relatives, but she had more of them,
and so the only place with room
to hold the wedding in was a gymnasium,

and the preacher said...

"Lisa Lee Elizabeth Amanda Francis Jill
Georgette Suzette Luette Edwina Gina Terry Tina Wilamina
Mindy Cindy Lauren Wendy Sandra Donna Lil
Michelle Druzella Ariella Stella Shishkebab McGill

do you take

Tom Paul John Bartholomew Alfonzo Ricky Shane
Moe Mickey Larry Barry Barney Jerry Terry Eric Duane
Beau Derrick Melvin Milton Maximillian Zachariah Kane
Joe William Eddie Teddie Fred Spaghetti Sheldon Eldon Payne

to be your lawfully wedded husband as long as you both shall live?"

Lisa Lee said, "I do."

And the preacher said....

"Tom Paul John Bartholomew Alfonzo Ricky Shane
Moe Mickey Larry Barry Barney Jerry Terry Eric Duane
Beau Derrick Melvin Milton Maximillian Zachariah Kane
Joe William Eddie Teddie Fred Spaghetti Sheldon Eldon Payne

do you take

Lisa Lee Elizabeth Amanda Francis Jill
Georgette Suzette Luette Edwina Gina Terry Tina Wilamina
Mindy Cindy Lauren Wendy Sandra Donna Lil
Michelle Druzella Ariella Stella Shishkebab McGill

to be your lawfully wedded wife as long as you both shall live?"

Tom Paul said, "I do."

And the preacher said, "You may kiss the bride."

Now Lisa Lee and Tom Paul wanted a family to share their joy with,
and Lisa Lee's first born child turned out to be twins - a girl and boy kid.

Letters started pouring in from relatives all over.
Requested names were piling up in every nook and corner.

So Lisa Lee and Tom Paul took their suggestions into the study,
and after a week they came out with an announcement for everybody.
They named the twins

Mike and Sarah
Payne.
