Mabye the person who died had a favorite singer or band; pick a song from his\her favorite singer/band. Pengwin May 14th, 2006, 07:51 PM Wild Horses by Rolling Stones Childhood living is easy to do The things you wanted I bought them for you Graceless lady you know who I am You know I can’t let you slide through my hands Wild horses couldn’t drag me away Wild, wild horses, couldn’t drag me away I watched you suffer a dull aching pain Now you decided to show me the same No sweeping exits or offstage lines Could make me feel bitter or treat you unkind Wild horses couldn’t drag me away Wild, wild horses, couldn’t drag me away I know I dreamed you a sin and a lie I have my freedom but I don’t have much time Faith has been broken, tears must be cried Let’s do some living after we die Wild horses couldn’t drag me away Wild, wild horses, we’ll ride them some day Wild horses couldn’t drag me away Wild, wild horses, we’ll ride them some day The Circle Game by Joni Mitchell (I think this was originally written for a funeral) Yesterday a child came out to wonder Caught a dragonfly inside a jar Fearful when the sky was full of thunder And tearful at the falling of a star Then the child moved ten times round the seasons Skated over ten clear frozen streams Words like, when you’re older, must appease him And promises of someday make his dreams And the seasons they go round and round And the painted ponies go up and down We’re captive on the carousel of time We can’t return we can only look behind From where we came And go round and round and round In the circle game Sixteen springs and sixteen summers gone now Cartwheels turn to car wheels thru the town And they tell him, Take your time, it won’t be long now Till you drag your feet to slow the circles down And the seasons they go round and round And the painted ponies go up and down We’re captive on the carousel of time We can’t return we can only look behind From where we came And go round and round and round In the circle game So the years spin by and now the boy is twenty Though his dreams have lost some grandeur coming true There’ll be new dreams, maybe better dreams and plenty Before the last revolving year is through And the seasons they go round and round And the painted ponies go up and down We’re captive on the carousel of time We can’t return, we can only look behind From where we came And go round and round and round In the circle game Craigy May 14th, 2006, 07:57 PM I dunno, I hate songs at funerals :sad: They made me cry at my granda's funeral and I dont know why :sad: drake3781 May 14th, 2006, 08:15 PM i need to find some really touching lyrics for a funeral. and i'd really appreciate it if you guys could help me out. Hm... I think you should go about it a different way. We can't say what't "touching" for a specific person. Make a list of characteristics about the person that were special, and some brief memories. Then look for songs expressing those characteristics. You can do lyrics search by keyword or theme on some websites. But go there with a list that is specific to this person you want to honor. | |
