Rushmore soundtrack lyrics -- Making Time .. Creation


Submitted by DZestmen on January 25, 2006

Making Time, Shooting lines
For people to believe in
Things you say, gone in a day
Everybody leavin', everybody leavin'

Why do we have to carry on
Always singing the same old song
Same old song, the same old song

Tellin' lies
Closing your eyes
Making more excuses
Poolin' the wool
Actin' the fool
people have their uses
People have their uses

Why do we have to carry on
Always singing the same old song
Same old song, the same old song

Lookin' for, an open door
Never taking chances
Take your pick, makes you sick
Seekin' new advances, Seekin' new advances

Why do we have to carry on
Always singing the same old song
Same old song, the same old song


Rushmore soundtrack lyrics -- Concrete & Clay .. Unit 4 + 2


You to me
Are sweet as roses in the morning
And you to me
Are soft as summer rain at dawn, in love we share
That something rare

The sidewalks in the street
The concrete and the clay beneath my feet
Begins to crumble
But love will never die
Because we'll see the mountains tumble
Before we say goodbye

My love and I will be
In love eternally
That's the way
Mmm, that's the way it's meant to be

All around
I see the purple shades of evening
And on the ground
The shadows fall and once again you're in my arms
So tenderly

The sidewalks in the street
The concrete and the clay beneath my feet
Begins to crumble
But love will never die
Because we'll see the mountains tumble
Before we say goodbye

My love and I will be
In love eternally
That's the way
Mmm, that's the way it's meant to be

The sidewalks in the street
The concrete and the clay beneath my feet
Begins to crumble
But love will never die
Because we'll see the mountains tumble
Before we say goodbye

My love and I will be
In love eternally
That's the way
Mmm, that's the way it's meant to be

And that's the way
That's the way it's meant to be

That's the way
(that's the way it's meant to be)
Whoa, that's the way
That's the way it's meant to be [fade]


Rushmore soundtrack lyrics -- Nothing In This World Can Stop Me Worrin' Bout That Girl .. The Kinks


Met a girl, fell in love, glad as I can be
Met a girl, fell in love, mad as I can be
But I think all the time is she true to me?
Cos' there's nothing in this world to stop me worryin' 'bout that girl

I found I was wrong she was just two timin'
I found I was wrong she just kept on lying
Now she tries to tell the truth and I just can't believe
Cos' there's nothing in this world to stop me worryin' 'bout that girl

Tell me who can I turn to, just who can I believe?
I try to put her out of my mind, she'd only cause me grief
But I love that girl whatever she's done, tho' it hurts me deeply
Cos' there's nothing in this world to stop me worryin' 'bout that girl

I know she's been with other feller's, why'd she keep on lying?
Hurts me so when she says nothin', I really feel like dyin'
I ache inside each time I think, I know it's just my pride
Cos' there's nothing in this world to stop me worryin' 'bout that girl
Cos' there's nothing in this world
to stop me worryin'
'bout that girl

Rushmore soundtrack lyrics -- A Summer Song .. Chad & Jeremy


(Metcalfe / Noble / Stuart)

Trees swayin' in the summer breeze
Showin' off their silver leaves
As we walked by

Soft kisses on a summer's day
Laughing all our cares away
Just you and I

Sweet sleepy warmth of summer nights
Gazing at the distant lights
In the starry sky

They say that all good things must end some day
Autumn leaves must fall
But don't you know that it hurts me so
To say goodbye to you
Wish you didn't have to go
No no no no

And when the rain
Beats against my window pane
I'll think of summer days again
And dream of you

They say that all good things must end some day
Autumn leaves must fall
But don't you know that it hurts me so
To say goodbye to you
Wish you didn't have to go
No no no no

And when the rain
Beats against my window pane
I'll think of summer days again
And dream of you
And dream of you

Rushmore soundtrack lyrics -- Here Comes My Baby .. Cat Stevens


In the midnight moonlight I'll be walking a long and lonely mile.
And every time I do, I keep seeing this picture of you.

Here's comes my baby, here she comes now,
And it comes as no surprise to me, with another guy.
Here's comes my baby, here she comes now,
Walking with a love, with a love that's all so fine,
Never could be mine, no matter how I try.

You never walk alone, and you're forever talking on the phone.
I've tried to call you names, but every time it comes out the same.

Here's comes my baby, here she comes now,
And it comes as no surprise to me, with another guy.
Here's comes my baby, here she comes now,
Walking with a love, with a love that's all so fine,
Never could be mine, no matter how I try.

I'm still waiting for your heart, cuz I'm sure that some day it's gonna start.
You'll be mine to hold each day, but 'til then this is all that I can say.

Here's comes my baby, here she comes now,
And it comes as no surprise to me, with another guy.
Here's comes my baby, here she comes now,
Walking with a love, with a love that's all so fine,
Never could be mine, no matter how I try.


Rushmore soundtrack lyrics -- A Quick One While He's Away .. The Who


I. Her Man's Been Gone

Her man's been gone
For nearly a year
He was due home yesterday
But he ain't here

Her man's been gone
For nigh on a year
He was due home yesterday
But he ain't here

II. Crying Town

Down your street your crying is a well-known sound
Your street is very well known, right here in town
Your town is very famous for the little girl
Whose cries can be heard all around the world

III. We Have A Remedy

Fa la la la la la
Fa la la la la
Fa la la la la la
Fa la la la la

We have a remedy
You'll appreciate
No need to be so sad
He's only late

We'll bring you flowers and things
Help pass your time
We'll give him eagle's wings
Then he can fly to you

Fa la la la la la
Fa la la la la
Fa la la la la la
Fa la la la la
Fa la la la la la
Fa la la la la la

We have a remedy
Fa la la la la la la
We have a remedy
Fa la la la la la la
We have a remedy
Fa la la la la la la
We have a remedy
Fa la la la la la la

(spoken)
We have a remedy.
We have!

Little girl, why don't you stop your crying?
I'm gonna make you feel all right

IV. Ivor The Engine Driver

My name is Ivor
I'm an engine driver

I know him well
I know why you feel blue
Just 'cause he's late
Don't mean he'll never get through

He told me he loves you
He ain't no liar, I ain't either
So let's have a smile for an old engine driver
So let's have a smile for an old engine driver

Please take a sweet
Come take a walk with me
We'll sort it out
Back at my place, maybe

It'll come right
You ain't no fool, I ain't either
So why not be nice to an old engine driver?
Better be nice to an old engine driver
Better be nice to an old engine driver

V. Soon Be Home

We'll soon be home
We'll soon be home
We'll soon
We'll soon, soon, soon be home

We'll soon be home
We'll soon be home
We'll soon
We'll soon, soon, soon be home

Come on, old horse

Soon be home
Soon be home
Soon
We'll soon, soon, soon be home

We'll soon
We'll soon, soon, soon be home

We'll soon be home
Soon be home ...

VI. You Are Forgiven

Dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang, dang

Cello, cello, cello, cello, cello, cello
Cello, cello, cello, cello, cello, cello
Cello, cello, cello, cello, cello, cello
Cello, cello, cello, cello, cello, cello

I can't believe it
Do my eyes deceive me?
Am I back in your arms?
Away from all harm?

It's like a dream to be with you again
Can't believe that I'm with you again

I missed you and I must admit
I kissed a few and once did sit
On Ivor the Engine Driver's lap
And later with him, had a nap

You are forgiven, you are forgiven, you are forgiven ... (ad lib)

You are forgiven

Rushmore soundtrack lyrics -- Rue St. Vincent .. Yves Montand


Elle avait, sous sa toque de martre
Sur la butte Montmartre
Un petit air innocent
On l'appelait Rose, elle était belle
A sentait bon la fleur nouvelle
Rue Saint-Vincent

On n'avait pas connu son père
A n'avait pus de mère
Et depuis mil neuf cent
A de meurait chez sa vieille aïeule
Oè qu'a s'éle vais comme ça, toute seule
Rue Saint-Vincent

A travaillait, déjà, pour vivre
Et les soirs de givre
Sous le froid noir et glaçant
Son petit fichu sur les épaules
A rentrait, par la rue des Saules
Rue Saint-Vincent

A voyait, dans les nuits de gelée
La nappe étoilée
Et la lune en croissant
Qui brillait, blanche et fatidique
Sur la petite croix de la basilique
Rue Saint-Vincent

L'été par les chauds crépuscules
A rencontrait Jules
Qu'était si caressant
Qu'a restait la soirée entière
Avec lui, près du vieux cimetière
Rue Saint-Vincent

Mais le petit Jules était de la tierce
Qui soutient la gerce
Aussi, l'adolescent
Voyant qu'a ne marchait pas au pantre
D'un coup de surin lui troua le ventre
Rue Saint-Vincent

Quand ils l'ont couchés sous la planche
Elle était toute blanche
Même qu'en l'ensevelissant
Les croque morts disaient que la pauvre gosse
Était claquée le jour de sa noce
Rue Saint-Vincent

Elle avait, sous sa toque de martre
Sur la butte Montmartre
Un petit air innocent
On l'appelait Rose, elle était belle
A sentait bon la fleur nouvelle
Rue Saint-Vincent

Rushmore soundtrack lyrics -- The Wind .. Cat Stevens


I listen to the wind
to the wind of my soul
Where I'll end up well I think,
only God really knows
I've sat upon the setting sun
But never, never never never
I never wanted water once
No, never, never, never

I listen to my words but
they fall far below
I let my music take me where
my heart wants to go
I swam upon the devil's lake
But never, never never never
I'll never make the same mistake
No, never, never, never


Rushmore soundtrack lyrics -- Oh Yoko .. John Lennon


In the middle of the night
In the middle of the night I call your name
Oh Yoko, oh Yoko, my love will turn you on

In the middle of the bath
In the middle of the bath I call your name
Oh Yoko, oh Yoko, my love will turn you on
My love will turn you on

In the middle of a shave
In the middle of a shave I call your name
Oh Yoko, oh Yoko, my love will turn you on

In the middle of a dream
In the middle of a dream I call your name
Oh Yoko, oh Yoko, my love will turn you on
My love will turn you on

In the middle of a cloud In the middle of a cloud I call your name
Oh Yoko, oh Yoko, my love will turn you on
Oh Yoko, oh Yoko, oh Yoko, oh Yoko


Rushmore soundtrack lyrics -- Ooh La La .. The Faces


Poor old Granddad
I laughed at all his words
I thought he was a bitter man
He spoke of women's ways
They trap you, then they use you
Before you even know
For love is blind and you're far too kind
Don't ever let it show
I wish that I knew what I know now
When I was younger.
I wish that I knew what I know now
When I was stronger.
The Can Can's such a pretty show
They'll steal your heart away
But backstage, back on earth again
The dressing rooms are grey
They come on strong and it ain't too long
Before they make you feel a man
But love is blind and you soon will find
You're just a boy again
When you want her lips, you get a cheek
Makes you wonder where you are
If you want some more and she's fast asleep
Then she's twinkling with the stars.
Poor young grandson, there's nothing I can say
You'll have to learn, just like me
And that's the hardest way
Ooh la la
I wish that I knew what I know now
When I was younger.
I wish that I knew what I know now
When I was stronger.
