    Caught Up

    The cause of all our personal problems and nearly all the problems of the world can be summed up in a single sentence:
    Human life is very deep, and our modern dominant lifestyle is not.”

  • Room at the Top Lyrics

    Song Lyrics on Allspirit

    Tom Petty

    From the Album Echo

    I got a room at the top of the world tonight
    I can see everything tonight
    I got a room where everyone
    Can have a drink and forget those things
    That went wrong in their life

    I got a room at the top of the world tonight
    I got a room at the top of the world tonight
    I got a room at the top of the world tonight
    And I ain’t comin’ down, I ain’t comin’ down

    I got someone who loves me tonight
    I got over a thousand dollars in the bank
    And I’m all right
    Look deep in the eyes of love
    Look deep in the eyes of love
    And find out what you were looking for

    I got a room at the top of the world tonight
    I got a room at the top of the world tonight
    I got a room at the top of the world tonight
    And I ain’t comin’ down, no I ain’t comin’ down

    I wish I could feel you tonight, little one
    You’re so far away
    I wanna reach out and touch your heart
    Yeah like they do in those things on TV, I love you
    Please love me, I’m not so bad
    And I love you so

    I got a room at the top of the world tonight
    I got a room at the top of the world tonight
    I got a room at the top of the world tonight
    And I ain’t comin’ down, no I ain’t comin’ down
    I ain’t comin’ down

    By Sara Teasdale

    YOU bound strong sandals on my feet,
    You gave me bread and wine,
    And sent me under sun and stars,
    For all the world was mine.

    Oh, take the sandals off my feet,
    You know not what you do;
    For all my world is in your arms,
    My sun and stars are you.
