If Ever You're In My Arms Again
by Peabo Bryson

It all came so easy
All the loving you gave me
The feelings we shared
And I still can remember
How your touch was so tender
It told me you cared
We had a once in a lifetime
But I just couldn't see
Until it was gone
A second once in a lifetime
May be too much to ask
But I swear from now on

If ever you're in my arms again
This time I'll love you much better
If ever you're in my arms again
This time I'll hold you forever
This time we'll never end

Now I'm seen clearly
How I still need you near me
I still love you so
There's something between us
That won't ever leave us
There's no letting go
(No letting go)
We had a once in a lifetime
But I just didn't know it
'Til my life fell apart
A second once in a lifetime
Isn't too much to ask
'Cause I swear from the heart

If ever you're in my arms again
This time I'll love you much better
If ever you're in my arms again
This time I'll hold you forever
This time we'll never end

Never end

The best of romances
Deserve second chances
I'll get to you somehow
'Cause I promise now

If ever you're in my arms again
This time I'll love you much better
If ever you're in my arms again
This time I'll hold you forever
This time we'll never end...

the solitude

[PatrickFromNYC]

a killer:

A Waits fan.....Is it only us Manhattan folks who can see his brilliance?

[systematic_chaos42]

Well, I feel like I don't have much to offer besides something cliche and obvious, but I guess I'll say it anyways.

Johnny Cash- Hurt

Yeah yeah yeah, I know. That one sure was pulled out of the depths of obscurity. And yes, I know it was originally by Nine Inch Nails. But hearing that song, especially when he was as close to death as he was really floored me.

Also Escape Club's I'll Be There really touched me.

Probably too obscure but - "That's Entertainment" by The JAM

Yes!! one of the greatest rock bands ever -- thank you for bringing them up:





Paul Weller continues to rock:

[boogeyman2]

Im not sure if this is rip you heart out music but I got Kings Of Leon - Only by the night for Christmas and it is incredible!

PatrickfromNYC,

Ah, man, Waits is it:



--this is my favorite Waits song, it's almost unbearable. That melody!

[Jericho]

Well, I feel like I don't have much to offer besides something cliche and obvious, but I guess I'll say it anyways.

Johnny Cash- Hurt

Excellent song

[Caramel]

Ryuichi Sakamoto's Forbidden Colors from the film 'Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence' with Sakamoto and David Bowie. David Sylvian sings well. The song is heartbreaking even if you don't know the story.
