My favorite rock ballads
Music plays a really important role in my life. I was thirteen years old when I begun showing interest in rock music. At that time I was mainly listening to a few hard rock bands. My music taste has changed a lot since then, but there are some songs that simple can't get old for me.
I have been listening to these songs for more than twelve years (with the exception of "The Islander" by Nightwish), and surely each one of them has withstand the test of time.
The two reasons I made this lens are, firstly to have access to these songs when I am away from home and secondly to be able to share them with my family and friends, simply by sending them the link of this page. I hope you will enjoy this selection as much as I do. Let's begin!

Soldier of Fortune lyrics
I have often told you stories
About the way
I lived the life of a drifter
Waiting for the day
When I'd take your hand
And sing you songs
Then maybe you would say
Come lay with me love me
And I would surely stay
But I feel I'm growing older
And the songs that I have sung
Echo in the distance
Like the sound
Of a windmill goin' 'round
I guess I'll always be
A soldier of fortune
Many times I've been a traveler
I looked for something new
In days of old
When nights were cold
I wandered without you
But those days I thought my eyes
Had seen you standing near
Though blindness is confusing
It shows that you're not here
Now I feel I'm growing older
And the songs that I have sung
Echo in the distance
Like the sound
Of a windmill goin' 'round
I guess I'll always be
A soldier of fortune
I can hear the sound
Of a windmill goin' 'round
I guess I'll always be
A soldier of fortune
I guess I'll always be
A soldier of fortune
About the way
I lived the life of a drifter
Waiting for the day
When I'd take your hand
And sing you songs
Then maybe you would say
Come lay with me love me
And I would surely stay
But I feel I'm growing older
And the songs that I have sung
Echo in the distance
Like the sound
Of a windmill goin' 'round
I guess I'll always be
A soldier of fortune
Many times I've been a traveler
I looked for something new
In days of old
When nights were cold
I wandered without you
But those days I thought my eyes
Had seen you standing near
Though blindness is confusing
It shows that you're not here
Now I feel I'm growing older
And the songs that I have sung
Echo in the distance
Like the sound
Of a windmill goin' 'round
I guess I'll always be
A soldier of fortune
I can hear the sound
Of a windmill goin' 'round
I guess I'll always be
A soldier of fortune
I guess I'll always be
A soldier of fortune

November Rain lyrics
When I look into your eyes I can see a love restrained
But darlin' when I hold you, don't you know I feel the same
Nothin' lasts forever and we both know hearts can change
And it's hard to hold a candle in the cold November rain
We've been through this such a long long time
Just tryin' to kill the pain
But lovers always come and lovers always go
An' no one's really sure who's lettin' go today, walking away
And If we take the time to lay it on the line
I could rest my head just knowin' that you were mine, all mine
So if you want to love me then darlin' don't refrain
Or I'll just end up walkin' in the cold November rain
Do you need some time on your own
Do you need some time all alone
Everybody needs some time on their own
Don't you know you need some time all alone
I know it's hard to keep an open heart
When even friends seem out to harm you
But if you could heal a broken heart
Wouldn't time be out to charm you
Sometimes I need some time on my
own Sometimes I need some time all alone
Everybody needs some time on their own
Don't you know you need some time all alone
And when your fears subside and shadows still remain
I know that you can love me when there's no one left to blame
So never mind the darkness we still can find a way
Nothin' lasts forever even cold November rain
Don't ya think that you need somebody
Don't ya think that you need someone
Everybody needs somebody
You're not the only one, you're not the only one
Don't ya think that you need somebody
Don't ya think that you need someone
Everybody needs somebody
You're not the only one, you're not the only one
Don't ya think that you need somebody
Don't ya think that you need someone
Everybody needs somebody

When The Smoke Is Going Down lyrics
Just when you make your way back home
I find some time to be alone
I go to see the place once more
Just like a thousand nights before
I climb the stage again this night
´Cause the place seems still alive
When the smoke is going down
This is the place where I belong
I really love to turn you on
I´ve got your sound still in my ear
While your traces disappear
I climb the stage again this night
´Cause the place seems still alive
When the smoke is going down
I climb the stage again this night
´Cause the place seems still alive
When the smoke is going down
When the smoke is going down
When the smoke is going down
I find some time to be alone
I go to see the place once more
Just like a thousand nights before
I climb the stage again this night
´Cause the place seems still alive
When the smoke is going down
This is the place where I belong
I really love to turn you on
I´ve got your sound still in my ear
While your traces disappear
I climb the stage again this night
´Cause the place seems still alive
When the smoke is going down
I climb the stage again this night
´Cause the place seems still alive
When the smoke is going down
When the smoke is going down
When the smoke is going down

Believe lyrics
So after all these one night stands
You've ended up with heart in hand
A child alone, On your own, Retreating
Regretful for the things you're not
And all the dreams you haven't got
Without a home, a heart of stone, lies bleeding
And for all the roads you followed
And for all you did not find
And for all the things you had to leave behind
I am the way, I am the light
I am the dark inside the night
I hear your hopes, I feel your dreams
And in the dark, I hear your screams
Don't turn away, just take my hand
And when you make your final stand
I'll be right there, I'll never leave
All I ask of you, Believe
Your childhood eyes were so intense
While bartering your innocence
For bits of string, grown-up wings
You needed
But when you had to add them up
You found that they were not enough
To get you in and pay for sins repeated
And for all the years you borrowed
And for all the tears you cried
And for all the fears you had to keep inside
I am the way, I am the light
I am the dark inside the night
I hear your hopes, I feel your dreams
And in the dark, I hear your screams
Don't turn away, just take my hand
And when you make your final stand
I'll be right there, I'll never leave
All I ask of you, Believe
I never wanted to know
Never wanted to see
I wasted my time
Till time wasted me
Never wanted to go
Always wanted to stay
'Cause the persons I am
Are the parts that I play
So I plot and I plan
Hope and I scheme
To the lure of a night
Filled with unfinished dreams
And I'm holding on tight
To a world gone astray
As they charge me for years
I can't pay
I am the way, I am the light
I am the dark inside the night
I hear your hopes, I feel your dreams
And in the dark, I hear your screams
Don't turn away, just take my hand
And when you make your final stand
I'll be right there, I'll never leave
All I ask of you, Believe
Believe
You've ended up with heart in hand
A child alone, On your own, Retreating
Regretful for the things you're not
And all the dreams you haven't got
Without a home, a heart of stone, lies bleeding
And for all the roads you followed
And for all you did not find
And for all the things you had to leave behind
I am the way, I am the light
I am the dark inside the night
I hear your hopes, I feel your dreams
And in the dark, I hear your screams
Don't turn away, just take my hand
And when you make your final stand
I'll be right there, I'll never leave
All I ask of you, Believe
Your childhood eyes were so intense
While bartering your innocence
For bits of string, grown-up wings
You needed
But when you had to add them up
You found that they were not enough
To get you in and pay for sins repeated
And for all the years you borrowed
And for all the tears you cried
And for all the fears you had to keep inside
I am the way, I am the light
I am the dark inside the night
I hear your hopes, I feel your dreams
And in the dark, I hear your screams
Don't turn away, just take my hand
And when you make your final stand
I'll be right there, I'll never leave
All I ask of you, Believe
I never wanted to know
Never wanted to see
I wasted my time
Till time wasted me
Never wanted to go
Always wanted to stay
'Cause the persons I am
Are the parts that I play
So I plot and I plan

To the lure of a night
Filled with unfinished dreams
And I'm holding on tight
To a world gone astray
As they charge me for years
I can't pay

I am the dark inside the night
I hear your hopes, I feel your dreams
And in the dark, I hear your screams
Don't turn away, just take my hand
And when you make your final stand
I'll be right there, I'll never leave

Dream On lyrics
Every time I look in the mirror
All these lines on my face getting clearer
The past is gone
It went by, like dusk to dawn
Isn't that the way
Everybody's got their dues in life to pay
I know nobody knows
where it comes and where it goes
I know it's everybody's sin
You got to lose to know how to win
Half my life's
in books' written pages
Lived and learned from fools and
from sages
You know it's true
All the things come back to you
Sing with me, sing for the year
Sing for the laughter, sing for the tear
Sing with me just for today
Maybe tomorrow, the good lord will take you away
Sing with me, sing for the year
Sing for the laughter, sing for the tear
Sing with me, just for today
Maybe tomorrow, the good Lord will take you away
Dream On, Dream On, Dream On
Dream until your dream comes true
Dream On, Dream On, Dream On
Dream until your dream comes through
Dream On, Dream On, Dream On
Dream On, Dream On
Dream On, Dream On
Sing with me, sing for the year
Sing for the laughter, sing for the tear
Sing with me just for today
Maybe tomorrow, the good Lord will take you away
Sing with me, sing for the year
Sing for the laughter, sing for the tear
Sing with me just for today
Maybe tomorrow, the good Lord will take you away
All these lines on my face getting clearer
The past is gone
It went by, like dusk to dawn
Isn't that the way
Everybody's got their dues in life to pay
I know nobody knows
where it comes and where it goes
I know it's everybody's sin
You got to lose to know how to win
Half my life's
in books' written pages
Lived and learned from fools and
from sages
You know it's true
All the things come back to you
Sing with me, sing for the year
Sing for the laughter, sing for the tear
Sing with me just for today
Maybe tomorrow, the good lord will take you away
Sing with me, sing for the year
Sing for the laughter, sing for the tear
Sing with me, just for today
Maybe tomorrow, the good Lord will take you away
Dream On, Dream On, Dream On
Dream until your dream comes true
Dream On, Dream On, Dream On
Dream until your dream comes through
Dream On, Dream On, Dream On
Dream On, Dream On
Dream On, Dream On
Sing with me, sing for the year
Sing for the laughter, sing for the tear
Sing with me just for today
Maybe tomorrow, the good Lord will take you away
Sing with me, sing for the year
Sing for the laughter, sing for the tear
Sing with me just for today
Maybe tomorrow, the good Lord will take you away

Catch The Rainbow lyrics
When evening falls
She'll run to me
Like whispered dreams
Your eyes can't see
Soft and warm
She'll touch my face
A bed of straw
Against the lace
We believed we'd catch the rainbow
Ride the wind to the sun
Sail away on ships of wonder
But life's not a wheel
With chains made of steel
So bless me come the dawn
Come the dawn
She'll run to me
Like whispered dreams
Your eyes can't see
Soft and warm
She'll touch my face
A bed of straw
Against the lace
We believed we'd catch the rainbow
Ride the wind to the sun
Sail away on ships of wonder
But life's not a wheel
With chains made of steel
So bless me come the dawn
Come the dawn

Man Of Sorrows lyrics
Here, in a church, a small boy is kneeling
He prays to a god he does not know, he cannot feel
All of his sins of childhood he will remember
He will not cry, tears he will not cry
Man of sorrows, I won't see your face
Man of sorrows, you left without a trace
His small boy wonders, what was it all about
Is your journey over, has it just begun
Vision of a new world from the ashes of the old
Do what thou wilt, he screams from his cursed soul
A tortured seer, a prophet of our emptiness
Wondering why, wondering why
Man of sorrows, I won't see your face
(I won't see your face)
Man of sorrows, you left without a trace
His small boy wonders, what was it all about
Is your journey over, has it just begun
A man of sorrows, wrecked
With thoughts that dare not speak their name
Trapped inside a body, made to feel only guilt and shame
His anger all his life, I hate myself, he cried
Do what thou wilt
Do what thou wilt, he cried
Man of sorrows, I won't see your face
(I won't see your face)
Man of sorrows, you left without a trace
(Left without a trace)
His small boy wonders, what was it all about
Is your journey over, has it just begun
Has it just begun
He prays to a god he does not know, he cannot feel
All of his sins of childhood he will remember
He will not cry, tears he will not cry
Man of sorrows, I won't see your face
Man of sorrows, you left without a trace
His small boy wonders, what was it all about
Is your journey over, has it just begun
Vision of a new world from the ashes of the old
Do what thou wilt, he screams from his cursed soul
A tortured seer, a prophet of our emptiness
Wondering why, wondering why
Man of sorrows, I won't see your face
(I won't see your face)
Man of sorrows, you left without a trace
His small boy wonders, what was it all about
Is your journey over, has it just begun
A man of sorrows, wrecked
With thoughts that dare not speak their name
Trapped inside a body, made to feel only guilt and shame
His anger all his life, I hate myself, he cried
Do what thou wilt
Do what thou wilt, he cried
Man of sorrows, I won't see your face
(I won't see your face)
Man of sorrows, you left without a trace
(Left without a trace)
His small boy wonders, what was it all about
Is your journey over, has it just begun
Has it just begun

Tears lyrics
Doko ni yukebaii anata to hanarete
Ima wa sugisatta toki ni toikakete
Nagasugita yoru ni tabidachi wo yume mita
Ikoku no sora mitsumete kodoku wo dakishimeta
Nagareru namida wo toki no kaze ni kasanete
Owaranai anata no toiki wo kanjite
Dry your tears with love
Dry your tears with love
Loneliness your silent whisper
Fills a river of tears
Through the night
Memory you never let me cry
And you, you never said goodbye
Sometimes our tears blinded the love
We lost our dreams along the way
But I never thought you'd trade your soul to the fates
Never thought you'd leave me alone
Time through the rain has set me free
Sands of time will keep your memory
Love everlasting fades away
Alive within your beatless heart
Dry your tears with love
Dry your tears with love
Nagareru namida wo toki no kaze ni kasanete
Owaranai kanashimi wo aoi bara ni kaete
Dry your tears with love
Dry your tears with love
Nagareru namida wo toki no kaze ni kasanete
Owaranai anata wo toiki wo kanjite
Dry your tears with love
Dry your tears with love
Dry your tears with love
Dry your tears with love
Ima wa sugisatta toki ni toikakete
Nagasugita yoru ni tabidachi wo yume mita
Ikoku no sora mitsumete kodoku wo dakishimeta
Nagareru namida wo toki no kaze ni kasanete
Owaranai anata no toiki wo kanjite
Dry your tears with love
Dry your tears with love
Loneliness your silent whisper
Fills a river of tears
Through the night
Memory you never let me cry
And you, you never said goodbye
Sometimes our tears blinded the love
We lost our dreams along the way
But I never thought you'd trade your soul to the fates
Never thought you'd leave me alone
Time through the rain has set me free

Love everlasting fades away
Alive within your beatless heart

Stairway To Heaven lyrics
There's a lady who's sure all that glitters is gold
And she's buying a stairway to heaven
When she gets there she knows, if the stores are all closed
With a word she can get what she came for
And she's buying a stairway to heaven.
There's a sign on the wall but she wants to be sure
'Cause you know sometimes words have two meanings
In a tree by the brook, there's a songbird who sings
Sometimes all of our thoughts are misgiven
It makes me wonder
It makes me wonder
There's a feeling I get when I look to the west
And my spirit is crying for leaving
In my thoughts I have seen rings of smoke through the trees
And the voices of those who stand looking
It makes me wonder
Really makes me wonder
And it's whispered that soon if we all call the tune
Then the piper will lead us to reason
And a new day will dawn for those who stand long
And the forests will echo with laughter
If there's a bustle in your hedgerow, don't be alarmed now
It's just a spring clean for the May queen
Yes there are two paths you can go by, but in the long run
There's still time to change the road you're on
And it makes me wonder
Your head is humming and it won't go, in case you don't know
The piper's calling you to join him
Dear lady can you hear the wind blow, and did you know
Your stairway lies on the whispering wind
And as we wind on down the road
Our shadows taller than our soul
There walks a lady we all know
Who shines white light and wants to show
How everything still turns to gold
And if you listen very hard
The tune will come to you at last
When all are one and one is all
To be a rock and not to roll
And she's buying a stairway to heaven.
And she's buying a stairway to heaven
When she gets there she knows, if the stores are all closed
With a word she can get what she came for
And she's buying a stairway to heaven.
There's a sign on the wall but she wants to be sure
'Cause you know sometimes words have two meanings
In a tree by the brook, there's a songbird who sings
Sometimes all of our thoughts are misgiven
It makes me wonder
It makes me wonder
There's a feeling I get when I look to the west
And my spirit is crying for leaving
In my thoughts I have seen rings of smoke through the trees
And the voices of those who stand looking
It makes me wonder
Really makes me wonder
And it's whispered that soon if we all call the tune
Then the piper will lead us to reason
And a new day will dawn for those who stand long
And the forests will echo with laughter
If there's a bustle in your hedgerow, don't be alarmed now

Yes there are two paths you can go by, but in the long run

To be a rock and not to roll

Dust In The Wind lyrics
I close my eyes
Only for a moment and the moment's gone
All my dreams
Flash before my eyes a curiosity
Dust in the wind
All they are is dust in the wind
Same old song
Just a drop of water in an endless sea
All we do
Crumbles to the ground though we refuse to see
Dust in the wind
All we are is dust in the wind
Now
Don't hang on
Nothing lasts forever but the Earth and Sky
It slips away
And all your money won't another minute buy
Dust in the wind
All we are is dust in the wind, (all we are is dust in the wind)
Dust in the wind, (everything is dust in the wind)
Everything is dust in the wind, the wind
Only for a moment and the moment's gone
All my dreams
Flash before my eyes a curiosity
Dust in the wind
All they are is dust in the wind
Same old song
Just a drop of water in an endless sea
All we do
Crumbles to the ground though we refuse to see
Dust in the wind
All we are is dust in the wind
Now
Don't hang on
Nothing lasts forever but the Earth and Sky
It slips away
And all your money won't another minute buy
Dust in the wind
All we are is dust in the wind, (all we are is dust in the wind)
Dust in the wind, (everything is dust in the wind)
Everything is dust in the wind, the wind

Nothing Else Matters lyrics
So close no matter how far
Couldn't be much more from the heart
Forever trusting who we are
And nothing else matters
Never opened myself this way
Life is ours we live it our way
All these words I don't just say
And nothing else matters
Trust I seek and I find in you
Every day for us something new
Open mind for a different view
And nothing else matters
Never cared for what they do
Never cared for what they know
But I know
So close no matter how far
Couldn't be much more from the heart
Forever trusting who we are
And nothing else matters
Never cared for what they do
Never cared for what they know
But I know
I never opened myself this way
Life is ours we live it our way
All these words I don't just say
And nothing else matters
Trust I seek and I find in you
Every day for us something new
Open mind for a different view
And nothing else matters
Never cared for what they say
Never cared for games they play
Never cared for what they do
Never cared for what they know
And I know
So close no matter how far
Couldn't be much more from the heart
Forever trusting who we are
No nothing else matters
Couldn't be much more from the heart
Forever trusting who we are
And nothing else matters
Never opened myself this way
Life is ours we live it our way
All these words I don't just say
And nothing else matters
Trust I seek and I find in you
Every day for us something new
Open mind for a different view
And nothing else matters
Never cared for what they do
Never cared for what they know
But I know
So close no matter how far
Couldn't be much more from the heart
Forever trusting who we are
And nothing else matters
Never cared for what they do
Never cared for what they know
But I know
I never opened myself this way
Life is ours we live it our way
All these words I don't just say
And nothing else matters
Trust I seek and I find in you
Every day for us something new
Open mind for a different view
And nothing else matters
Never cared for what they say
Never cared for games they play
Never cared for what they do
Never cared for what they know
And I know
So close no matter how far
Couldn't be much more from the heart
Forever trusting who we are
No nothing else matters

Angie lyrics
Angie, Angie
When will those clouds all disappear
Angie, Angie
Where will it lead us from here
With no loving in our souls
And no money in our coats
You can't say we're satisfied
But Angie, Angie
You can't say we never tried
Angie, You're beautiful
But ain't it time we said goodbye
Angie, I still love you
Remember all those nights we cried
All the dreams we held so close
Seemed to all go up in smoke
Let me whisper in your ear
Angie, Angie
Where will it lead us from here
Angie, don't you weep
All your kisses still taste sweet
I hate that sadness in your eyes
But Angie, Angie
Ain't it time we said goodbye
With no loving in our souls
And no money in our coats
You can't say we're satisfied
But Angie, I still love you, baby
Everywhere I look I see your eyes
There ain't a woman that comes close to you
Come on baby dry your eyes
But Angie, Angie
Ain't it good to be alive
Angie, Angie
You can't say we never tried
When will those clouds all disappear
Angie, Angie
Where will it lead us from here
With no loving in our souls
And no money in our coats
You can't say we're satisfied
But Angie, Angie
You can't say we never tried
Angie, You're beautiful
But ain't it time we said goodbye
Angie, I still love you
Remember all those nights we cried
All the dreams we held so close
Seemed to all go up in smoke
Let me whisper in your ear
Angie, Angie
Where will it lead us from here
Angie, don't you weep
All your kisses still taste sweet
I hate that sadness in your eyes
But Angie, Angie
Ain't it time we said goodbye
With no loving in our souls
And no money in our coats
You can't say we're satisfied
But Angie, I still love you, baby
Everywhere I look I see your eyes
There ain't a woman that comes close to you
Come on baby dry your eyes
But Angie, Angie
Ain't it good to be alive
Angie, Angie
You can't say we never tried

The Islander lyrics
An old man by a seashore
At the end of day
Gazes the horizon
With seawinds in his face
Tempest-tossed island
Seasons all the same
Anchorage unpainted
And a ship without a name
Sea without a shore for the banished one unheard
He lightens the beacon, light at the end of world
Showing the way lighting hope in their hearts
The ones on their travels homeward from afar
This is for long-forgotten
Light at the end of the world
Horizon crying
The tears he left behind long ago
The albatross is flying
Making him daydream
The time before he became
One of the world`s unseen
Princess in the tower
Children in the fields
Life gave him it all
An island of the universe
Now his love`s a memory
A ghost in the fog
He sets the sails one last time
Saying farewell to the world
Anchor to the water
Seabed far below
Grass still in his feet
And a smile beneath his brow
This is for long-forgotten
Light at the end of the world
Horizon crying
The tears he left behind long ago
So long ago
This is for long-forgotten
Light at the end of the world
Horizon crying
The tears he left behind so long ago
So long ago
At the end of day
Gazes the horizon
With seawinds in his face
Tempest-tossed island
Seasons all the same
Anchorage unpainted
And a ship without a name
Sea without a shore for the banished one unheard
He lightens the beacon, light at the end of world
Showing the way lighting hope in their hearts
The ones on their travels homeward from afar
This is for long-forgotten
Light at the end of the world
Horizon crying
The tears he left behind long ago
The albatross is flying
Making him daydream
The time before he became
One of the world`s unseen
Princess in the tower
Children in the fields
Life gave him it all
An island of the universe
Now his love`s a memory
A ghost in the fog
He sets the sails one last time
Saying farewell to the world
Anchor to the water
Seabed far below
Grass still in his feet
And a smile beneath his brow
This is for long-forgotten
Light at the end of the world
Horizon crying
The tears he left behind long ago
So long ago
This is for long-forgotten
Light at the end of the world
Horizon crying
The tears he left behind so long ago
So long ago

Wish You Were Here lyrics
So, so you think you can tell
Heaven from Hell
Blue skies from pain
Can you tell a green field
From a cold steel rail
A smile from a veil
Do you think you can tell
Did they get you to trade
Your heroes for ghosts
Hot ashes for trees
Hot air for a cool breeze
And cold comfort for change
Did you exchange
A walk on part in the war
For a lead role in a cage
How I wish, how I wish you were here
We're just two lost souls
Swimming in a fish bowl
Year after year
Running over the same old ground
What have we found
The same old fears
Wish you were here
Heaven from Hell
Blue skies from pain
Can you tell a green field
From a cold steel rail
A smile from a veil
Do you think you can tell
Did they get you to trade
Your heroes for ghosts
Hot ashes for trees
Hot air for a cool breeze
And cold comfort for change
Did you exchange
A walk on part in the war
For a lead role in a cage
How I wish, how I wish you were here
We're just two lost souls
Swimming in a fish bowl
Year after year
Running over the same old ground
What have we found
The same old fears
Wish you were here
