EAGLES LYRICS

"Learn To Be Still"

It's just another day in paradise
As you stumble to your bed
You'd give anything to silence
Those voices ringing in your head
You thought you could find happiness
Just over that green hill
You thought you would be satisfied
But you never will-
Learn to be still

We are like sheep without a shepherd
We don't know how to be alone
So we wander 'round this desert
And wind up following the wrong gods home
But the flock cries out for another
And they keep answering that bell
And one more starry-eyed messiah
Meets a violent farewell-
Learn to be still
Learn to be still

Now the flowers in your garden
They don't smell so sweet
Maybe you've forgotten
The heaven lying at your feet

[Solo]

There are so many contridictions
In all these messages we send
(We keep asking)
How do I get out of here
Where do I fit in?
Though the world is torn and shaken
Even if your heart is breakin'
It's waiting for you to awaken
And someday you will-
Learn to be still
Learn to be still

You just keep on runnin'
Keep on runnin'

    Thank you for posting this.  This is (was) (always should be) my theme song.  I used to listen to it and cry, thinking about my life.  It suits me to a T.  I had forgotten that that is just what I am always after--just to be still.  Going back to listen to it again.

Dont Take the Girl...
A song I wrote, it was aimed for pop but now has more of a rock feel than I originally intended....
happy by leoana lewis...


the title might fool yah......
I was just listening to the song "INSTANT KARMA", and the song hit me like a brick. I felt what Lennon was getting at. We are all stars, and we need to treat eachother that way!...
