    I've brought this song up on the forum before. It's just that I fear it's not long before, "Jimmy Who? Webb? Wasn't he the guy who invented the Internet?" I know this song from my collection of Linda Ronstadt recordings, and this was on her early 1980s recording Get Closer. It's not exactly Sokka's situation, but, here goes (thanks to google.com and http://www.lyricskeeper.com/jimmy_webb-lyrics/174879-the_moons_a_harsh_mistress-lyrics.htm:

    Artist - Jimmy Webb
    Lyrics - The Moon's A Harsh Mistress

    See her how she flies
    Golden sails across the sky
    Close enough to touch
    But careful if you try
    Though she looks as warm as gold
    The moon's a harsh mistress
    The moon can be so cold

    Once the sun did shine
    Lord, it felt so fine
    The moon a phantom rose
    Through the mountains and the pines
    And then the darkness fell
    And the moon's a harsh mistress
    It's so hard to love her well

    I fell out of her eyes
    I fell out of her heart
    I fell down on my face
    Yes, I did, and I -- I tripped and I missed my star
    God, I fell and I fell alone, I fell alone
    And the moon's a harsh mistress
    And the sky is made of stone

    The moon's a harsh mistress
    She's hard to call your own.

    Those lyrics are really pretty

    How about "You've Got A Friend In Me" from Toy Story for Appa and Momo?

    imaginary-by evanscenace for zuko or aang.Here are the words.

    i linger in the doorway
    of alarm clock screaming monsters calling my name
    let me stay
    where the wind will whisper to me
    where the raindrops as they're falling tell a story

    in my field of paper flowers
    and candy clouds of lullaby
    i lie inside myself for hours
    and watch my purple sky fly over me

    don't say i'm out of touch
    with this rampant chaos - your reality
    i know well what lies beyond my sleeping refuge
    the nightmare i built my own world to escape

    in my field of paper flowers
    and candy clouds of lullaby
    i lie inside myself for hours
    and watch my purple sky fly over me

    swallowed up in the sound of my screaming
    cannot cease for the fear of silent nights
    oh how i long for the deep sleep dreaming
    the goddess of imaginary light

    in my field of paper flowers
    and candy clouds of lullaby
    i lie inside myself for hours
    and watch my purple sky fly over me

    I put something here about an hour ago, and it's gone!


    I wish to call your attention to a song I feel can speak about Aang and company, now including Toph, with feelers out for Zuko. I heard this song while I was playing patron of the folkies (folk music singers and songwriters) from the latter '90's to midwinter '03. The singer's name is Janet Burgan, and she was covering a song called "Through Your Hands", written by John Hiatt. I found these lyrics using Google, and they're on a site called Lyrics Time:


    You were dreaming on a park bench
    ???bout a broad highway somewhere
    When the music from the carillon
    Seemed to hurl your heart out there
    Past the scientific darkness
    Past the fireflies that float
    To an angel bending down
    To wrap you in her warmest coat


    And you ask, what am I not doing?
    She says your voice cannot command.
    In time, you will move mountains,
    And it will come through your hands.


    Still you argue for an option
    Still you angle for your case
    Like you wouldn???t know a burning bush
    If it blew up in your face
    Yeah, we scheme about the future
    And we dream about the past
    When just a simple reaching out
    Might build a bridge that lasts


    And you ask, what am I not doing?
    She says your voice cannot command.
    In time, you will move mountains,
    And it will come through your hands.


    So whatever your hands find to do
    You must do with all your heart
    There are thoughts enough
    To blow men???s minds and tear great worlds apart


    There???s a healing touch to find you
    On that broad highway somewhere
    To lift you high
    As music flying
    Through the angel???s hair.


    Don???t ask what you are not doing
    Because your voice cannot command
    In time we will move mountains
    And it will come through your hands

    i can't remember the name or who sung it but...some of the words were "I've fought so hard (something soemthing) in the end it doesn't even matter" fits perfectly with Zuko...i'm sure other ppl know the song...it starts with a piano solo...and there's a line "things are the way they were before, you wouldn't even recognize me anymore" and you can pretty much picture the old pic of zuko morphing into his current pic...

    Prince Zuko's superego (where he hears the voices and sees the faces of Ursa, Ozai, Iroh, and Azula in his mind motivating him):

    John Parr
    "Man in Motion"

    Growing up, you don't see the writing on the wall.
    Passing by, moving straight ahead, you knew it all.
    But maybe, some time, if you feel the pain,
    You'll find you're all alone, everything has changed.

    Play the game! You know you can't quit until it's won.
    Soldier on! Only you can do what must be done.
    You know, in some way, you're a lot like me:
    You're just a prisoner, and you're trying to break free.

    I can see a new horizon underneath the blazing sky.
    I'll be where the eagle's flying higher and higher.
    I'm gonna be your man in motion; all I need is a pair of wheels.
    Take me where the future's lying: Saint Elmo's Fire.

    Burning up, don't know just how far that I can go.
    Soon be home-- only just a few miles down the road.
    I can make it. I know I can.
    You broke the boy in me, but you won't break the man.

    I can see a new horizon underneath the blazing sky.
    I'll be where the eagle's flying higher and higher.
    I'm gonna be your man in motion; all I need is a pair of wheels.
    Take me where the future's lying: Saint Elmo's Fire.

    I can climb the highest mountain, cross the wildest sea.
    I can feel Saint Elmo's Fire burning in me.

    Just once in his life, a man has his time, and my time is now.
    I'm coming alive!

    I can hear the music playing, I can see the banners fly.
    Feel like I'm a man again, and hope's riding high.
    I'm gonna be your man in motion, all I need is a pair of wheels.
    Take me where my future's lying: Saint Elmo's Fire.

    I can see a new horizon underneath the blazing sky.
    I'll be where the eagle's flying higher and higher.
    I'm gonna be your man in motion; all I need is a pair of wheels.
    Take me where the future's lying: Saint Elmo's Fire.

    I can climb the highest mountain, cross the wildest sea.
    I can feel Saint Elmo's Fire burning in me.

    Aang Song - dedicated to Katara and all she does for him when he gets upset....

    When You Say Nothing At All - Keith Whitley

    It???s amazing how you can speak right to my heart
    Without saying a word you can light up the dark
    Try as I may I could never explain
    What I hear when you don???t say a thing

    The smile on your face lets me know that you need me
    There???s a truth in your eyes sayin??? you???ll never leave me
    The touch of your hand says you???ll catch me if ever I fall
    You say it best when you say nothing at all

    All day long I can hear people talking out loud
    But when you hold me near, you drown out the crowd
    Old mr. webster could never define
    What???s being said between your heart and mine

    The smile on your face lets me know that you need me
    There???s a truth in your eyes sayin??? you???ll never leave me
    The touch of your hand says you???ll catch me if ever I fall
    You say it best when you say nothing at all

    The smile on your face lets me know that you need me
    There???s a truth in your eyes sayin??? you???ll never leave me
    The touch of your hand says you???ll catch me if ever I fall
    You say it best when you say nothing at all

    Zuko's Song - dedicated to his mother, Princess Ursa

    Never Alone by Barlowgirl

    I waited for You today
    But You didn't show
    No.No.No
    I needed You today
    So where did you go?
    You told me to call
    Said You'd be there
    And though I haven't seen You
    Are You still here?

    Chorus
    I cry out with no reply and
    I can't feel You by my side
    So I'll hold tight to what I know
    You're here and I'm never alone.

    And though I cannot see You
    and I can't explain why
    Such a deep, deep reassurance
    You've placed in my life oh
    We cannot separate
    'Cause You're part of me
    and though You're invisible
    I'll trust the unseen

    Chorus
    I cry out with no reply
    And I can't feel You by my side
    So I'll hold tight to what I know
    You're here and I'm never alone

    We cannot separate
    You're part of me
    and though You're invisible
    I trust the unseen

    Chorus
    I cry out with no reply
    and I can't feel You by my side
    So I'll hold tight to what I know
    You're here and I'm never alone
