evan & jaron'ın da var boyle bir şarkisi... çok fena çook...

the sky has lost it's color
the sun has turned to gray
at least that's how it feels to me
whenever you're away

i crawl up in the corner
as i watch the minutes pass
each one brings me closer to
the time when you'll be back
you're coming back

i can't take the distance
i can't take the miles
i can't take the time
until the next time i see you smile
i can't take the distance
and i'm not ashamed
that i can't take a breath without saying your name
i can brave a hurricane
and still be standing tall when all the dust has settled down
but i can't take the distance

i still believe in feelings
but sometimes i feel too much
i make believe you're close to me
but it ain't close enough
not nearly close enough !

synkronized albumundeki enfes bir jamiroquai sarkisinin, cake coveri gibi duran, tekerleme gibi soylendikce daha da sevilen sarki.

bon jovinin bounce albumunden mukemmel bi sarki.. guzel, cok guzel.. ozellikle de nakarati.

there's a train out in the distance, destination still unknown
far away where no one's waiting, so far from home, so far from home
there's a rose outside your window, the first snow is falling down
like that lonesome whistle blowing
i keep on going, keep on going...

close your eyes and see my blue skies breaking through these dark clouds
you are the light
in my mind i see your red dress and your arms are reaching through the night
i'll never give up the fight
i'll go the distance

there's a thread that runs between us pulling 'cross this great divide
it's only there for the believers
don't stop believing, don't stop believing

close your eyes and see my blue skies breaking through these dark clouds
you are the light
in my mind i see your red dress and your arms are reaching through the night
i'll never give up the fight
i'll go the distance, i'll go the distance

there's a neverending story that begins with you and i
like the rose outside your window
don't let it die, don't let it die

çok güzel travis b-sidelarından biridir. dougie payne şarkısıdır; öyle özgür ruhlu olacağımız, istediğimiz işi yapacağımızı sandığımız zamanlar hakkında bir şarkıdır. kaçmak isteyen tek siz değilsiniz de der tabii. çıkış tarihi 2004'tür.

do you remember?
do you remember?
do you remember
how you were gonna stay free?
but they had plans for you
and things to do
the same thing goes for me
well well i never
saw it coming to me
but when i turned around
to look at you
it was all that i could do

to see the distance
everybody wants to run
and i'm no different
feeling like the only one

in the beginning
everything was so close
and it seemed that everywhere you go
everybody knows

you don't remember
what you wanted to be
well they went round the class
and you were last
the clock was fast
so no one asked

to see the distance
everybody wants to run
and i'm no different
feeling like the only one

well how long can you run?
how far and what for?
how far will you run
to get whatever you're after
year after year after year

well i've been looking
but i still can't see
how we get from a to b to c
and feel like we should be

well i've been running
but i've been running around
now there's nothing left for me to do
but sit around and see the view

and see the distance
everybody wants to run
and i'm no different
feeling like the only one

do you remember?
do you remember?
do you remember?

poets of the fall'un temple of thought albümünün 7 numaralı şarkısı

is this really how quickly it goes away
i can't feel my emotions arrive today

cos i still love how you say my name
i still taste you kissing my pain away
still see your tears through the rain
these burning sensations sustain

feel the distance bring us closer
water would cool and soothe my pain
if we could touch now, just hold on now
bridges would never burn again

i've seen this yearning take on a frightening form
the memory of you will make sure my past lingers on

and i still love how you say my name
i still taste you kissing my pain away
still see your tears through the rain
these burning sensations sustain

feel the distance...

don't you worry
there'll be a time when our hearts beat the same
let life carry
across the distance i still see your flame
don't you worry
there'll be a time when out hearts beat the same
let life carry

still love how you say my name
i still taste you kissing my pain away
still see your tears through the rain
these burning sensations sustain

feel the distance...

kesinlikle yol sarkisidir. hatta daha da ozele indirgersek, gece bol isikli ve tenha bir yolda, misal sahil yolu, dinlenmesi keyifli olan bu cake sarkisi, en sevdigimiz olmasa da en yuksek sesle eslik ettigimizdir.

(eleqtra - 23 Temmuz 2003 18:25)

son dönemde bağıra bağıra söylediğim ^*şarkısı, insana mutluluk veriyor, yalnız değilsin hissi var biraz da, aslında biraz fazla pop şarkısı da gibi, hadi sevelim sevelim modunda; arkadaşlarıma dinletip, nasıl siz de mutlu oldunuz değil mi diye sormasam daha iyi olabilir tabi..
(özellikle "in the beginning, everything was so close" kısmı ile muhteşem)

sözlerini de yazayım tam olsun

reluctantly crouched at the starting line,
engines pumping and thumping in time.
the green light flashes, the flags go up.
churning and burning, they yearn for the cup.
they deftly maneuver and muscle for rank,
fuel burning fast on an empty tank.
reckless and wild, they pour through the turns.
their prowess is potent and secretly stearn.
as they speed through the finish, the flags go down.
the fans get up and they get out of town.
the arena is empty except for one man,
still driving and striving as fast as he can.
the sun has gone down and the moon has come up,
and long ago somebody left with the cup.
but he's driving and striving and hugging the turns.
and thinking of someone for whom he still burns.

he's going the distance.
he's going for speed.
she's all alone
in her time of need.
because he's racing and pacing and plotting the course,
he's fighting and biting and riding on his horse,
he's going the distance.

no trophy, no flowers, no flashbulbs, no wine,
he's haunted by something he cannot define.
bowel-shaking earthquakes of doubt and remorse,
assail him, impale him with monster-truck force.
in his mind, he's still driving, still making the grade.
she's hoping in time that her memories will fade.
cause he's racing and pacing and plotting the course,
he's fighting and biting and riding on his horse.
the sun has gone down and the moon has come up,
and long ago somebody left with the cup.
but he's striving and driving and hugging the turns.
and thinking of someone for whom he still burns.

cause he's going the distance.
he's going for speed.
she's all alone
in her time of need.
because he's racing and pacing and plotting the course,
he's fighting and biting and riding on his horse.
he's racing and pacing and plotting the course,
he's fighting and biting and riding on his horse.
he's going the distance.
he's going for speed.
he's going the distance.

cake'in en güzel şarkılarının bulunduğu ilk üç albümünden olan, insanı coşturan bağıra çağıra eşlik ettiren bir şarkı. zaten motorcade of generosity ,fashion nugget ve prolonging the magic albümlerinde güzel olmayan tek tük parça olduğu için, bu şarkının bu kadar güzel olması da cakeiçin gayet normal bir durum.
