Lyrics?
Maybe I'm just blind, after all, it's 310am here... but where can I find lyrics for Taylor's songs?

Anyone know if the lyrics are available?

I'm sure I'll go hunting tomorrow and find them in a very obvious place! But maybe he doesn't have them posted.

If anyone knows... let me know :)

lyrics
ok so i dont have a lyrics section on my website, because i just havent gotten around to it. sorry, i know that sucks but i will try to get something going for you. since you caught me on one of my days off, i will give you a little lyric action right now. it seems that you like "black & white" so we will start with that.

BLACK AND WHITE
--------------------------
BLACK AND WHITE A SILVER FRAME YOUR SMILE IS BEAUTIFUL - BUT I PUT IT AWAY WITH A BOX OF YOUR THINGS, TODAY IS GREY
----
WHERE DO I GO , WHERE DO I GO WHEN I MISS YOU
WHERE DO I GO
----
SO I KISS YOU GOODBYE AND YOU DRIVE AWAY, IM LOSING YOU - THEN I FALL TO MY KNEES CAUSE IM WONDERING HOW I'LL LIVE WITHOUT YOU
----
WHERE DO I GO, WHERE DO I GO WHEN I MISS YOU
WHERE DO I GO
----
ALL I WANTED WAS YOU
I GUESS I WASNT ENOUGH FOR YOU
NOW YOUR GONE
NOW YOUR GONE
----
WHERE DO I GO, WHERE DO I GO WHEN I MISS YOU
WHERE DO I GO

-----------------------------------------------------
IT IS A PRETTY SIMPLE SONG, NOTHING COMPLICATED.
IT IS ABOUT THE DREADED DAY WHEN YOU MEET UP WITH YOUR X TO GIVE EACH OTHER BACK THE STUFF YOU LEFT AT ONE ANOTHERS PLACE. THAT DAY ALWAYS SUCKS, BECAUSE YOU DONT WANT IT TO END BUT THAT KIND OF SEALS THE DEAL. IT IS THE LAST TIME YOU WILL SEE THEM FOR A LONG LONG TIME, AND IT IS JUST A SAD DAY. IT IS ALSO ABOUT WHAT I LIKE TO CALL "THE BOX". I THINK EVERYONE HAS A "BOX" LEFT OVER FROM A BOYFRIEND OR GIRLFRIEND. "THE BOX" USUALLY CONTAINS PICTURES, LOVE LETTERS, GIFTS, AND ANYTHING THAT YOU GOT TOGETHER THAT REMINDS YOU OF THAT PERSON. ALL THE STUFF THAT KILLS YOU EVERYTIME YOU SEE IT. IN THIS CASE IT WAS A BLACK AND WHITE PHOTO OF MY X THAT WAS IN A SILVER FRAME. IT FREAKING HAUNTED ME UNTIL I PUT "THE BOX" UP ON THE TOP SHELF OF MY CLOSET. BUT THEN "THE BOX" HAUNTS YOU, BECAUSE YOU SEE IT EVERYDAY.
SO THAT IS PRETTY MUCH WHAT THE SONG IS ABOUT. STARTING OVER, WHEN YOU DONT WANT TO.
I HOPE THAT QUENCHES YOUR LYRIC THIRST FOR A BIT.
I WILL TRY TO DIG UP A COUPLE MORE SONGS AND POST THEM.
THANKS FOR SPREADING THE WORD, YOU ARE A BAD-ASS.
ROCK AND ROLL,
TAYLOR

Re: lyrics
Awesome!

Thanks for posting those lyrics.

I think I like it because it's so relatable- aka- i've been there, done that.

I love it :)

I'll keep spreading the Taylor love around Canada :p

run away
god i love the way that you look tonight
silhouetted in the stars
and i want you, well i want you so bad
i can hardly breath
--------------------
but i'll just run away
--------------------
so im walking home from your place
how i wish that i could stay
so many things i want to tell you
i want to wake up next to you
but i never will
----------------------
so i'll just run away
----------------------
i think that you know that im after you tonight
i and i want you, i want you so bad
----------------------
so i'll just run away

------------------------------
so i moved to austin in november of 2001. my brother and i got an apartment and started recording at a studio in town. the girl that lived next to us in the apartment complex was a friend of ours, and i developed a small crush on her. one night we were outside in my car ( we had just gotten back from somewhere, but i cant remember where) and i told her that she had to listen to this song (martin sexton "where did i go wrong") we listened to it. then i went inside and wrote this song in 5 minutes. the song is basically about how i really wanted to make out with her. that might make me sound like a really big dirt bag, but i promise i'm not. by the way we never made out.
this is definitely one of my less serious songs. i guess they cant all be sad...

in my head
today im going to lock myself in my room
im going to listen to the records that remind me of you
remind me of you - well they all do
im shipbuilding when i should be picking up the pieces
so i can live my life when it all leads back to you
------------------------
and sometimes i feel like you are the only one
who can make me feel this way
-------------------------
tonight im going to drive around this grey town
im going to look for all the places and try to forget
try to forget all about you
and i cant sleep cause im dreaming of a better life
that im not living in and it hurts
it hurts to be this way
--------------------------
and sometimes i feel like you are the only one
who can make me feel this way
--------------------------
but it's in my head
there are things that you'll never know about me
its in my head
there are things that you'll never know
--------------------------
i should have realized that your not the only one for me
i should have opened my eyes
i should have let myself see
--------------------------
and sometimes i feel like you are the only one
who can make me feel this way
--------------------------
but it's in my head
there are things that you'll never know about me
its in my head
there are things that you'll never know
--------------------------

in 2003 i lived in a small old house in east austin. the place really made me feel arty, which is a cool thing. i spent a lot of time listening to elvis costello records and the Beatles sgt.pepper's lonely hearts club band. the song says "im shipbuilding" which refers directly to one of my favorite elvis costello songs" shipbuilding". the song is basically about a war torn country that is trying to put itself back together. the song is also kind of about the industrial revolution... life is so bad now because of the war, because of the ships that the town builds
ok so that makes sense right----- how can that relate to a kid from texas that cant build anything ....
"with all the will in the world, diving for dear life when we should be diving for parts..."
to me that means that they should be moving on....
i hate typing so that is the short version.
i relate the the song to my life, because i was really sad about this one girl for a long time, when i deserved a lot better.
instead of moving on and getting on with my life i sulked around quite a bit. the girl didnt really deserve all te attention i was giving her, and she didnt actually like me back as much as i liked her. so every once and i while i would start thinking about her and get all sad, until i was like dude this is crap and got over it.
the "in my head part", is really just me telling myself to not let myself let out all my personal info to a girl that has just broken my heart... they dont need the satisfaction , if that makes sense. you can share all your sad times with your friends, and then when she calls and asks how you are you can be like" dude i am so great, thing are amazing" while secretly pissing your friends off because you talk about it so much.......

i hope that makes sense
it is 4 am
my arm hurts from typing, and im tired
i will probably read this in a few days and not know what im talking about

so let me sum it up
elvis costello rocks-dont be sad for to long- dont let someone make you sad- if they do make you sad, dont tell them they do because then they get the upper hand (deception is good when dealing with pride)- and finally move on

yup i should have just said that from the start
taylor
