Monica | A Dozen Roses | Angel Of Mine

A Dozen Roses (You Remind Me) lyrics

[Sample:]
"...With A Dozen Roses, Such Would Astound You
The Joy Of Children Laughing Around You, These Are The Makings Of You
And It's True, The Makings Of You"

Boy You Remind Me, Remind Me Of By Gucci Shoes
Every time You Walk Past, All The Girls Be Looking At You
You Got Style Just Like A Bentley Coupe
And I Be Losing My Mind Every time I Get Next To You

I Think I'm Falling In Love With You Baby Caught Up In Something
That's Moving So Fast
Never Been With Nobody Else You And I Tighter
Than The Jeans On My Ass
You Remind Me Of This Thing Something Like
R. Kelly Singing Bout A Jeep
Boy You're Everything To Me And You're
My You're My Property

Boy You Remind Me Remind Me Of The Ice On My Ring Boys You Remind Me
Of This
These Are The Makings Of You And Its True These Are The
Makings Of You

You Remind Me Of The Very First Time You Remind Me Of The Time
We Made Love Just Like The 25th Day Of Christmas Waiting For
Sants Clause To Show Up You Got A Heart Of Gold Baby You Should
Know Baby You Remind Me Of So Much And Baby You Always Stay On My
Mind Your Just Like My Rims You Shine

Boy You Remind Me Of 26s On My Ride
Complete Spinning Around Looking Like A Superstar
Boy You Remind Me Of How Life's Suppose To Be
This Is What You Remind Me And Your My Your My Property

Looking At You Looking Another Baby I Don't Need Another Brother
Sex Time Around You I Feel The Same My Body There No Pressure Baby
You Know I Keep It So Real I Can't Help You Got The Whip Appeal
Whats The Deal Tell Me How You Feel Could It Be Me

Mac In My Lips Armor Oil On My Whip Butta On My Shirmp
I'm The Gladys You The Pip I Keep My Hair Flip The Way You Like To See
Me Strip Keep A Money Clip You Remind Me Of A Tip Like A Pair Of Jeans
From Ambercrombie When They Rip Like A Glass Of Wine Every time I Take
A Sip Its You

Boy You Remind Me, Remind Me Of By Gucci Shoes
Every time You Walk Pass All The Girls Be Looking At You
You Got Style Just Like A Bentley Coupe
And I Be Losing My Mind Every time I Get Next To You

[Sample:]
"...A Dozen Roses, Such Would Astound You
The Joy Of Children Laughing Around You, These Are The Makings Of You
And It's True, The Makings Of You"

Angel Of Mine lyrics

When I first saw you I already knew
There was something inside of you
Something I thought that I would never find
Angel of mine

I looked at you, lookin' at me
Now I know why they say the best things are free
I'm gonna love you boy you are so fine
Angel of mine

How you changed my world, you'll never know
I'm different now, you helped me grow
You came into my life sent from above
When I lost all hope you showed me love
I'm checkin' for you boy you're right on time
Angel of mine

Nothing means more to me than what we share
No one in this whole world can ever compare
Last night the way you moved is still on my mind
Angel of mine

What you mean to me, you'll never know
Deep inside I need to show
You came into my life sent from above
(Sent from above)

When I lost all hope, you showed me love
(Boy you showered me love)
I'm checkin' for you, boy you're right on time
(Right on time)
Angel of mine
(Angel of mine)

I'll never knew I could feel each moment
As if it were new
Every breath that I take, the love that we make
I only share it with you
(You, you, you, you)

When I first saw you I already knew
There was something inside of you
Something I thought that I would never find
Angel of mine

You came into my life sent from above
(Came into my life)
When I lost all hope you showed me love
(Boy you showed me love)
I'm shakin' for you, boy you're right on time
(But boy your right on time)
Angel of mine
(Angel of mine, oh mine)

How you changed my world, you'll never know
I'm different now, you helped me grow

I look at you, lookin' at me
Now I know why they say the best things are free
I'm checkin' for you, boy you're right on time
Angel of mine

Colbie Caillat | Magic | Begin Again

Magic lyrics

You've got magic inside your finger tips
Its leaking out all over my skin
Everytime that I get close to you
Your making me weak with the way you
Look through those eyes

[Chorus:]
But all I see is your face
All I need is your touch
Wake me up with your lips
Come at me from up above

Yeah, oh I need you

I remember the way that you move
Your dancing easily through my dreams
Its hittin me harder and harder with all your smiles
You are crazy gentle in the way you kiss

[Chorus]

Oh baby I need you
To see me, the way I see you
Lovely, wide awake in
The middle of my dreams

[Chorus]

All I see is your face
All I need is your touch
Wake me up with your lips
Come at me from up above
Yeah, oh oh da da da do do do do do
Ah, I ..... I need you

Begin Again lyrics

I can't get you out of the sunlight
I can't get you out of the rain
I can't get you back to that one time
Cause you and me are still recovering

So let's just, try to cool it down
The fighting, this feeling of flames
So let's just try to slow it down
We crash when we race

Oh this is not the way that it should end
It's the way it should begin
It's the way it should begin, again
No, I never wanna fall apart,
Never wanna break your heart
Never wanna let you break my own
Yes, I know we've said a lot of things
That we probably didn't mean
But it's not too late to take them back
So, before you say you're gonna go...
I should probably let you know
That I never knew what I had...
I never knew what I had...

See I look for you in the morning
Cause that's what my mind always calls
And I can't wait to get to the evening
Cause that's when I want you the most

So let's just try to cool it down
The fighting, this feeling of flames
So let's just try to slow it down
We crash when we race

Chorus

But I know it now...
I wish I would've known before
How good we were...
Or is it too late to come back
Or is it's really over,
If it's really over...

Chorus

Sheryl Crow | A Change | All Through The Night

A Change lyrics

Ten years living in a paper bag
Feedback baby, he's a flipped out cat
He's a platinum canary, drinking falstaff beer
Mercedes rule, and a rented lear
Bottom feeder insincere
Prophet lo-fi pioneer
Sell the house and go to school
Get a young girlfriend, daddy's jewel

A change would do you good
A change would do you good

God's little gift is on the rag
Poster girl posing in a fashion mag
Canine, feline, Jekyll and Hyde
Wear your fake fur on the inside
Queen of south beach, aging blues
Dinner's at six, wear your cement shoes
I thought you were singing your heart out to me
Your lips were syncing and now I see

A change would do you good
A change would do you good

Chasing dragons with plastic swords
Jack off Jimmy, everybody wants more
Scully and angel on the kitchen floor
And I'm calling Buddy on the ouija board
I've been thinking 'bout catching a train
Leave my phone machine by the radar range
Hello it's me, I'm not at home
If you'd like to reach me, leave me alone

A change would do you good
A change would do you good
Hello, it's me, I'm not at home
If you'd like to reach me, leave me alone

A change would do you good

All Through The Night lyrics

Sleep, my child
And peace attend thee
All through the night
Guardian angels
God will send thee
All through the night
Soft the drowsy hours
Are creeping
Hill and dale
In slumber sleeping
I my loving
Vigil keeping
All through the night

While the moon
Her watch is keeping
All through the night
While the weary world
Is sleeping
All through the night
O'er thy spirit
Gently stealing
Visions of delight
Revealing
Breathes a pure
And holy feeling
All through the night

Though I roam
A minstrel lonely
All through the night
My true harp shall
Praise sing only
All through the night
Love's young dream
Alas, is over
Yet my strains of love
Shall hover
Near the presence
Of my lover
All through the night

Hark
A solemn bell is ringing
Clear through the night
Thou, my love
Art heavenward winging
Home through the night
Earthly dust
From off thee shaken
Soul immortal
Shalt thou awaken
With thy last dim
Journey taken
Home through the night

Foo Fighters | Lonely As You | Burn Away

Lonely As You lyrics

What would I do
Lonely as you
Pleasure or pain
I can't choose

What would I do
Lonely as you
Pleasure or pain
I can't choose

Wake up
You're dreaming
I can't stand your screaming
Drowning out these prayers
Just some words without meaning

Spare all the breaching
My secrets worth keeping
No one understands like I do

Keep out of reach
I'm your leading deletion
Hide behind these masks
Though they still see right through them

Every now and then
You're down and out my friend
Down and out again [x3]
But I'm down with you

One more time for the last time
One more time for release
One more time for the last time
Everyone wants to believe

Blame it on you, thought these years I've been losing
Blame it on the past, it's the last place I know you
Blame all the children, they're raging and ruined
Blame it on the black and the blue

Every now and then
You're down and out my friend
Down and out again [x3]
But I'm down with you

One more time for the last time
One more time for release
One more time for the last time
Everyone wants to believe

Every now and then
You're down and out my friend
Down and out again [x3]
But I'm down with you

Chorus [x2]

One more time for the last time
One more time for release
One more time for the very last time
Everyone wants to believe, all right

Burn Away lyrics

I have spent a lifetime
Waiting for the chance
To save you my confession
Save the one last dance

The same old superstition
Haunt us now and then
I'm begging for ignition
To start it all again

We'll burn away
Burn away, burn away my pride

We'll burn away from all the other flames that burn tonight

We'll burn away
Burn away, burn away my pride

Breathe for me from now on
Breathe for me when I'm gone
Burn out beyond
Out beyond the sun

Will you still remember
There behind the skies
Walking on the embers
Standing in their light

The hardest part is knowing
Everything must die
The hardest part is waiting here
Waiting to collide

We'll burn away
Burn away, burn away my pride

We'll burn away
Burn away, burn away my pride

We'll burn away from all the other flames that burn tonight

We'll burn away
Burn away, burn away my pride

Breathe for me from now on
Breathe for me when I'm gone
Burn out beyond
Out beyond the sun

Burn on, burn on
Calling to you
Burn on, burn on
Calling to you
Burn on, burn on...

I'll never burn again
Never burn again [x3]
We'll never burn again
Never burn again [x3]

Miranda Lambert | Love Is Looking For You | Bring Me Down

Love Is Looking For You lyrics

Maybe you're just jaded from some nobody's unforgotten words
Maybe you're just faded, a little gray from every time that you've been hurt
So you're lookin for your skin that you never did fit in
You can't hide when you're turned inside out
Love is looking for you now

Maybe you been burnin' but you can't blow out a flame that you can't find
Maybe you've been thirsty but the rain just aint enough when you're this dry
So you're runnin' from the water and the fire's getting hotter
I think you better find some lever ground
Love is lookin' for you now (x2)

Maybe you been wearing the shoes that someone else is wearing now
Maybe you've been swearing forever might have already run out
You can't love yourself at the expense of someone else
You can't hide a liar from the truth
Love is lookin' for you
Love is lookin' for you

I've been looking for you
Baby I've been lookin.....
I've been looking for you

Bring Me Down lyrics

Sweet like a kiss, sharp like a razor blade
I find you when I'm close to the bottom
You can't appreciate the time it takes
To kick a love I always knew was kind of wrong

And as I'm putting out the flame
Somebody brings up your name

Oh oh oh oh
Baby baby baby, bring me down
I wanna be right where you are
Baby baby baby, bring me down
You can look me in the eye and break my heart
Break my heart

Six a.m. unruffled pillow
Laughs out loud at my trusting heart
If like I didn't see the penny
I missed the fountain by a couple yards

You would only stay gone
Maybe I could move on

Oh oh oh oh
Baby baby baby, bring me down
I wanna be right where you are
Baby baby baby, bring me down
You can look me in the eye and break my heart

Oh, baby baby baby, bring me down
I wanna be right where you are
Baby baby baby, bring me down
You can look me in the eye and break my heart

Oh, baby baby baby, bring me down
I wanna be right where you are
Baby baby baby, bring me down
You can look me in the eye and break my heart
Break my heart
Bring me down

Michael Buble | Lost | Love At First Sight

Lost lyrics

Maybe I didn't treat you
Quite as good as I should have
Maybe I didn't love you
Quite as often as I could have
Little things I should have said & done
I just never took the time

But you were always on my mind
You were always on my mind

Maybe I didn't hold you
All those lonely, lonely times
And I guess I never told you
I'm so happy that you're mine
If I made you feel second best
Girl, I'm sorry I was blind

You were always on my mind
You were always on my mind

Tell me, tell me that your
Sweet love hasn't died
Give me, give me one more chance
To keep you satisfied
Satisfied

Little things I should have said & done
I just never took the time

You were always on my mind

Love At First Sight lyrics

I'm making this one special evening
Taking a chance in my life
Hoping you feel the same way as I do tonight
Just try and look into my eyes
Don't be scared of what you might see there
The first time I saw you
I knew love at first sight must be true, so true, oh so true
And now I just have to explain why I feel this way
I feel joy, I feel pain
You're in my heart and it's tearing me apart
'Cause I love you, I love you, I love you!

Katy B | Broken Record | Katy On A Mission

Broken Record

I would toss and turn at night with your voice in my head
Like a broken record of the words you said
And when I finally fall asleep
You'd find your way into my dreams
But I would never mind, you see
'Cause I'd get to live my fantasy

[Chorus]

And I know that we make our mistakes
But you're holding every breath I take
Feeling this is more than fate
So please don't let me go, my baby

And I know that we make our mistakes
But you're holding every breath I take
Feeling this is more than fate
So please don't let me go, my baby


I tried my best to get away from you so badly
Knowing that I'd give my heart to you so gladly
But then it came reality
Everywhere I went you came with me
But now I give myself to you
I'm so scared of what you're gonna do

[Chorus]

And I know that we make our mistakes
But you're holding every breath I take
Feeling this is more than fate
So please don't let me go, my baby

And I know that we make our mistakes
But you're holding every breath I take
Feeling this is more than fate
So please don't let me go, my baby


Keep your arms exactly where they are
I wanna be here
I wanna feel you
And I'll keep my thoughts exactly where you are
I wanna be here
I wanna feel you


Like a broken record [x6]

Katy On A Mission

In this room of darkness I ain't undercover
That won't stop my prowess rubbing off on to another
Elevating higher as my body's moving lower
Now I've reached my element you better move over oh

But he doesn't he blocks my way
I try to push past but he wants to play
So I sip his drink as I hold his gaze
Ooh

When we erupt in to the room
And hear the sub go boom
A feeling easy to resume
This right here I swear will end too soon
So I sink in to the tune
As I inhale the fume
A feeling easy to resume
This right here I swear will end to soon

(This right here I swear will end to soon)

My limbs seem to move what the beat dictates to me
I push in to the middle the sound becomes a part of me
Taking me back to that sweet familiarity
Making my adrenalin rise I feel the eyes on me

Sip the bottle now don't be slow
Keep up with me as we lose control
Keep up with me as we lose control

When we erupt in to the room
And hear the sub go boom
A feeling easy to resume
This right here I swear will end too soon
So I sink in to the tune
As I inhale the fume
A feeling easy to resume
This right here I swear will end to soon

(This right here I swear will end to soon)

When we erupt in to the room
And hear the sub go boom
A feeling easy to resume
This right here I swear will end too soon

Colbie Caillat | Falling For You | I Never Told You

These are my favorite songs. Both of them are from her second album Breakthrough.

Falling For You

I don't know but
I think I maybe
Fallin' for you
Dropping so quickly
Maybe I should
Keep this to myself
Waiting 'til I
Know you better

I am trying
Not to tell you
But I want to
I'm scared of what you'll say
So I'm hiding what I'm feeling
But I'm tired of
Holding this inside my head

I've been spending all my time
Just thinking about ya
I don't know what to do
I think I'm fallin' for you
I've been waiting all my life
And now I found ya
I don't know what to do
I think I'm fallin' for you
I'm fallin' for you

As I'm standing here
And you hold my hand
Pull me towards you
And we start to dance
All around us
I see nobody
Here in silence
It's just you and me

I'm trying
Not to tell you
But I want to
I'm scared of what you'll say
So I'm hiding what I'm feeling
But I'm tired of
Holding this inside my head

I've been spending all my time
Just thinking about ya
I don't know what to do
I think I'm fallin' for you
I've been waiting all my life
And now I found ya
I don't know what to do
I think I'm fallin' for you
I'm fallin' for you

Oh I just can't take it
My heart is racing
The emotions keep spinning out

I've been spending all my time
Just thinking about ya
I don't know what to do
I think I'm fallin' for you
I've been waiting all my life
And now I found ya
I don't know what to do
I think I'm fallin' for you
I'm fallin' for you

I can't stop thinking about it
I want you all around me
And now I just can't hide it
I think I'm fallin' for you [x2]

I'm fallin' for you

I Never Told You

I miss those blue eyes
how you kissed me at night
i miss the way we see
like there's no sunrise
the taste of your smile
i miss the way we breathe

but i never told you
what i should have said
no i never told you
i just held it in
and now i miss everything
about you
i cant believe i still want you
after all the things we've
been through
i miss everything about you
without you

i see your blue eyes
every time i close mine
you make it hard to see
where i belong to when im not
around you
its like im gone with me

but i never told you
what i should have said
no i never told you
i just held it in
and now i miss everything
about you
i cant believe i still want
you
after all the things we've
been through
i miss everything about you
without you

but i never told you
what i should have said
no i never told you
i just held it in
and now i miss everything
about you
(still you're gone)
cant believe that i still want
you
after all the things we've
been through
i miss everything about you
without you

MICHAEL BUBLE | Guess I'm Falling For You | Call Me Irresponsible

"Guess I'm Falling For You"

When I look into your eyes
I see sunshine
The coulds are blown away
I hope you're here to stay
'Cause I've got me needing more of you
Guess I'm falling for you

You walk away
My eyes caress you
Then you turn and smile
You've caught me thinkin' of love with you
Guess I'm falling, I may be falling for you

Since I met you days are brighter
Life's uneven loads are lighter
When I hear you whisper the words I long to hear dear
Now I look into your eyes
I'm lost in knowing that you are all I want
My need for you is growing
Guess I'm falling, I think I'm falling for you
Think about falling for me too
--------------------------------------------------------
"Call Me Irresponsible"

Call me irresponsible
Call me unreliable
Throw in undependable, too

Do my foolish alibis bore you?
Well, I'm not too clever, I
I just adore you

So, call me unpredictable
Tell me I'm impractical
Rainbows, I'm inclined to pursue

Call me irresponsible
Yes, I'm unreliable
But it's undeniably true
That I'm irresponsibly mad for you

Do my foolish alibis bore you?
Girl, I'm not too clever, I
I just adore you

Call me unpredictable
Tell me that I'm so impractical
Rainbows, I'm inclined to pursue

Go ahead call me irresponsible
Yes, I'm unreliable
But it's undeniably true
I'm irresponsibly mad for you

You know it's true
Oh, baby it's true

BRANDY | Almost Doesn't Count | Tomorrow

"Almost Doesn't Count"

Almost made you love me
Almost made you cry
Almost made you happy, baby
Didn't I didn't I
You almost had me thinkin'
You were turned around
But everybody knows
Almost doesn't count

Almost heard you saying
You were finally free
What was always missing for you, baby
You'd found it in me
But you can't get to heaven
Half off the ground
Everybody knows
Almost doesn't count

I can't keep on lovin' you
One foot outside the door
I hear a funny hesitation
Of a heart that's never really sure
Can't keep on tryin'
If you're looking for more
Than all that I could give you
Than what you came here for

Gonna find me somebody
Not afraid to let go
Want a no doubt be there kind of man
You came real close
But everytime you built me up
You only let me down
And everybody knows
Almost doesn't count

Maybe you'll be sorry
Maybe you'll be cold
Maybe you'll come runnin' back, baby
From the cruel cruel world
Almost convince me
You're gonna stick around
But everybody knows
Almost doesn't count

So maybe I'll be here
Maybe I'll see ya around
That's the way it goes
Almost doesn't count
---------------------------------------

"Tomorrow"

If you would only treat me right
I'd stay here by your side
But I am down to my last cry
So I'm leaving you goodbye
You turned away from opportunities
To sit and talk things through
But now when I say I'm leaving you
You have so much to prove

So long to all my pain
Good night to my heartache
Goodbye sorrow
I won't cry no more
I'm leaving tomorrow

Stop writing me sweet letters and
Calling me on the phone
We argued constantely when I saw you
Always left me in the cold
I made the choice to finally go
Cause I can't stand this pain
It's time for my last tear to fall
And me to smile again

Sorrows and heartache goodbye
I'm leaving you
Don't wanna meet again
Has got to be the end
The end

The sun will finally shine on me
And clouds will drift away
There's something that's in store in me
That's my brighter day

Now I just can't wait
Tomorrow's too late
I'm leaving you today

Lady Gaga | Born This Way | You And I

"Born This Way"

[Intro:]
It doesn't matter if you love him, or capital H-I-M
Just put your paws up
'cause you were Born This Way, Baby

[Verse:]
My mama told me when I was young
We are all born superstars

She rolled my hair and put my lipstick on
In the glass of her boudoir

"There's nothing wrong with loving who you are"
She said, "'Cause he made you perfect, babe"

"So hold your head up girl and you'll go far,
Listen to me when I say"

[Chorus:]
I'm beautiful in my way
'Cause God makes no mistakes
I'm on the right track, baby
I was born this way

Don't hide yourself in regret
Just love yourself and you're set
I'm on the right track, baby
I was born this way

[Post-chorus:]
Oh there ain't no other way
Baby I was born this way
Baby I was born this way
Oh there ain't no other way
Baby I was born-
I'm on the right track, baby
I was born this way

Don't be a drag -Just be a queen [x3]
Don't be!

[Verse:]
Give yourself prudence
And love your friends
Subway kid, rejoice your truth

In the religion of the insecure
I must be my self, respect my youth

A different lover is not a sin
Believe capital H-I-M (Hey hey hey)
I love my life I love this record and
Mi amore vole fe yah (Love needs faith)

[Repeat chorus + post-chorus]

[Bridge:]
Don't be a drag, just be a queen
Whether you're broke or evergreen
You're black, white, beige, chola descent
You're Lebanese, you're orient
Whether life's disabilities
Left you outcast, bullied, or teased
Rejoice and love yourself today
'cause baby you were born this way

No matter gay, straight, or bi,
lesbian, transgendered life,
I'm on the right track baby,
I was born to survive.
No matter black, white or beige
Chola or orient made,
I'm on the right track baby,
I was born to be brave.

[Repeat chorus]

[Outro/refrain:]

I was born this way hey!
I was born this way hey!
I'm on the right track baby
I was born this way hey!

I was born this way hey!
I was born this way hey!
I'm on the right track baby
I was born this way hey!

"You And I"

It's been a long time since I came around
It's been a long time but I'm back in town
And this time I'm not leaving without you
You taste like whiskey when you kiss me all
I'd give anything again to be your baby doll
And this time I'm not leaving without you.

You say sit back down where you belong
In the corner of the bar with your high heels on
Sit back down on couch
Were we made love for the first time
And he said to me this

Something, something about this place
Something, 'bout lonely lights
And my lipstick on your face
Something something about
My cool Nebraska guy
There's something about
Baby you and I

It's been two years since I've let you go
And could've listened to what you told
About rock and roll
And the muscle cars and monster trucks
Ran through my heart

You taste like whiskey when you kiss me all
I'd give anything again to be your baby doll
And this time I'm not leaving with out you.

You say sit back down where you belong
In the corner of the bar with your high heels on
Sit back down on couch
Were we made love for the first time
And he said to me this

Something, something about this place
Something, 'bout lonely lights
And the lipstick on your face
Something something about
My cool Nebraska guy
There's something about
Baby you and I

You and I
You you and I
You you and I
You you and I
You and I
You you and I
You you and I
You you and I

You say sit back down where you belong
In the corner of the bar with your high heels on
Sit back down on couch
Were we made love for the first time
And he said to me this

Something, something about this place
Something, 'bout lonely lights
And the lipstick on your face
Something something about
My cool Nebraska guy
There's something about
Baby you and I

(You and I) x 2
(You you and I) x 2
You and I
(You you and I) x 3

It's been a long time since I've came around
It's been a long time but I'm back in town
And this time I'm not leaving without you

Vampire Weekend | Giving Up The Gun | White Sky

"Giving Up The Gun"

Your swords grown old and rusty
Burnt beneath the rising sun
Its locked up like a trophy
Forgetting all the things its done
All though its been a long time
You’re right back where you started from
I see it in your eyes
Now you’re giving up the gun

When I was 17
I had wrists like steel
And I felt complete
And now my body fades
Behind a brass charade
And I’m obsolete
But if the change remains
To see those better days
I’d cut the cannons down
My ears are blown to bits
From all the rifle hits
Still I crave that sound

Your swords grown old and rusty
Burnt beneath the rising sun
Its locked up like a trophy
Forgetting all the things its done
And though its been a long time
You’re right back where you started from
I see it in your eyes
Now you’re giving up the gun

I heard you play guitar
Down at a seedy bar
Where skinheads used to fight
Your Tokugawa smile
And your garbage style
Used to save the night
You felt the coming wave
Told me we'd all be brave
You said you wouldn’t flinch
But in the years that passed
Since I saw you last
You haven’t moved an inch

Your swords grown old and rusty
Burnt beneath the rising sun
Its locked up like a trophy
Forgetting all the things its done
And though its been a long time
You’re right back where you started from
I see it in your eyes
Now you’re giving up the gun
I see you shining your way
Go on go on go on
--------------------------------------------
"White Sky"

An ancient business
A modern piece of glasswork
Down on the corner that
You walk each day in passing
The elderly sales clerk
With eyes full of suspicion
The whole corporation's giving it permission

The little stairway
A little bit of carpet
A pair of mirrors that
Are facing one another
Out in both directions
A thousand little Julias
That come together
In the middle of Manhattan

You waited since lunch
It all comes at once

Around the corner
The house that modern art built
I ask for modern art
To keep it out the closet
The people who might own it
The sins of pride and envy
And on the second floor
The Richard Cera Skate Park

Waited since lunch
It all comes at once

Along the park walk
Ask all of our questions
While all the horses
Race taxis in the winter
Look up at the buildings
Imagine who might live there
Imagining you're walking
On a bowl upon the sing there

You waited since lunch
It all comes at once

ADELE | Rolling In The Deep | Someone Like You

"Rolling In The Deep"

There's a fire starting in my heart
Reaching a fever pitch, and it's bringing me out the dark
Finally I can see you crystal clear
Go ahead and sell me out and I'll lay your sheet bare
See how I'll leave with every piece of you
Don't underestimate the things that I will do

There's a fire starting in my heart
Reaching a fever pitch
And it's bringing me out the dark

The scars of your love remind me of us
They keep me thinking that we almost had it all
The scars of your love, they leave me breathless
I can't help feeling
We could have had it all
Rolling in the deep
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
You had my heart inside of your hand
(You're gonna wish you never had met me)
And you played it to the beat
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)

Baby, I have no story to be told
But I've heard one of you
And I'm gonna make your head burn
Think of me in the depths of your despair
Making a home down there
As mine sure won't be shared

The scars of your love remind me of us
They keep me thinking that we almost had it all
The scars of your love, they leave me breathless
I can't help feeling
We could have had it all
Rolling in the deep
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
You had my heart inside of your hand
(You're gonna wish you never had met me)
And you played it to the beat
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
We could have had it all
Rolling in the deep
You had my heart inside of your hand
And you played it to the beat

Throw your soul through every open door
Count your blessings to find what you look for
Turn my sorrow into treasured gold
You pay me back in kind and reap just what you sow

(You're gonna wish you never had met me)
We could have had it all
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
We could have had it all
(You're gonna wish you never had met me)
It all, it all, it all
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)

We could have had it all
(You're gonna wish you never had met me)
Rolling in the deep
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
You had my heart inside of your hand
(You're gonna wish you never had met me)
And you played it to the beat
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)

You could have had it all
(You're gonna wish you never had met me)
Rolling in the deep
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
You had my heart inside of your hand
(You're gonna wish you never had met me)

But you played it
You played it
You played it
You played it to the beat.

---------------------------------------------------

"Someone Like You"

I heard
That you're settled down
That you
Found a girl
And you're
Married now

I heard
That your dreams came true.
Guess she gave you things
I didn't give to you

Old friend
Why are you so shy?
Ain't like you to hold back
Or hide from the light

I hate to turn up out of the blue uninvited
But I couldn't stay away, I couldn't fight it.
I had hoped you'd see my face and that you'd be reminded
That for me it isn't over

Never mind
I'll find someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you too
Don't forget me I beg
I remember you said
"Sometimes it lasts in love
But sometimes it hurts instead."
Sometimes it lasts in love
But sometimes it hurts instead,
Yeah.

You know how
The time flies
Only yesterday
It was the time of our lives
We were born and raised
In a summer haze
Bound by the surprise
Of our glory days

I hate to turn up out of the blue uninvited
But I couldn't stay away, I couldn't fight it.
I had hoped you'd see my face and that you'd be reminded
That for me it isn't over, yeah.

Never mind
I'll find someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you too
Don't forget me I beg
I remember you said
"Sometimes it lasts in love
But sometimes it hurts instead"

Nothing compares
No worries or cares
Regrets and mistakes
And memories made.
Who would have known
How bittersweet
This would taste?

Chorus x 2

Sometimes it lasts in love
But sometimes it hurts instead

MIRANDA LAMBERT | The House That Built Me | Love Song

"The House That Built Me"

I know they say you cant go home again.
I just had to come back one last time.
Ma'am I know you don't know me from Adam.
But these handprints on the front steps are mine.
And up those stairs, in that little back bedroom
is where I did my homework and I learned to play guitar.
And I bet you didn't know under that live oak
my favorite dog is buried in the yard.

I thought if I could touch this place or feel it
this brokenness inside me might start healing.
Out here its like I'm someone else,
I thought that maybe I could find myself
if I could just come in I swear I'll leave.
Won't take nothing but a memory
from the house that built me.

Mama cut out pictures of houses for years.
From 'Better Homes and Garden' magazines.
Plans were drawn, concrete poured,
and nail by nail and board by board
Daddy gave life to mama's dream.

I thought if I could touch this place or feel it
this brokenness inside me might start healing.
Out here its like I'm someone else,
I thought that maybe I could find myself.
If I could just come in I swear I'll leave.
Won't take nothing but a memory
from the house that built me.

You leave home, you move on and you do the best you can.
I got lost in this whole world and forgot who I am.

I thought if I could touch this place or feel it
this brokenness inside me might start healing.
Out here its like I'm someone else,
I thought that maybe I could find myself.
If I could walk around I swear I'll leave.
Won't take nothing but a memory
from the house that built me.
----------------------------------------------------------
"Love Song"

I was standing there crying in the kitchen
It's been one of those mornings that's gonna last all day
And he comes in, wraps his arms around me
And I don't even have to say a thing

That's what makes it love
That's what makes it a love song

He comes in, slams the door behind him
And he can't hide the worry on his face
Even though I got a million things to tell him
I know right now he just needs some space

That's what makes it love
That's what makes it a love song
That's what makes it love
That's what makes it a love song

Everybody always sings about it
How they're never gonna live without it
We don't even have to talk about it
'Cuz We're living it out

Repeat Chorus

SHERYL CROW | Solidify | Redemption Day

"Solidify"

Pouring in and around the great wellspring
Of simple feeling
And I need bearings in the face of your
Cool cool fire
Walking backwards with the pounding of your voice
Makes my soul tired
And concrete is
As concrete doesn't
And voices can drown

Why should I [4 times]
Solidify
Make me real
So you can see me

I guess you thought
I'd hide the sun from my liquid thoughts and
Make ice for you
You thought I'd seed my clouds
With the rain of your personal dreams
I guess you thought I'd throw confetti
At your parade of lofty thoughts
I guess you thought I'd shine good morning
In some good morning Jack
Surprise

Why should I [4 times]
Solidify
Make me real
So you can see me

-----------------------------------------

"Redemption Day"

I've wept for those who suffer long
But how I weep for those who've gone
Into rooms of grief and questioned wrong
But keep on killing
It's in the soul to feel such things
But weak to watch without speaking
Oh what mercy sadness brings
If God be willing

There is a train that's heading straight
To heaven's gate, to heaven's gate
And on the way, child and man,
And woman wait, watch and wait
For redemption day

Fire rages in the streets
And swallows everything it meets
It's just an image often seen
On television
Come leaders, come you men of great
Let us hear you pontificate
Your many virtues laid to waste
And we aren't listening

What do you have for us today
Throw us a bone but save the plate
On why we waited til so late
Was there no oil to excavate
No riches in trade for the fate
Of every person who died in hate
Throw us a bone, you men of great

There is a train that's heading straight
To heaven's gate, to heaven's gate
And on the way, child and man,
And woman wait, watch and wait
For redemption day

It's buried in the countryside
It's exploding in the shells at night
It's everywhere a baby cries
Freedom

MICHAEL BUBLE | Kissing A Fool | How Sweet It Is

"Kissing A Fool"

You are far
When I could have been your star
You listened to people
Who scared you to death
And from my heart
Strange that you were strong enough
To even make a start
But you'll never find
Peace of mind
Till you listen to your heart

People
You can never change the way the feel
Better let them do just what they will
For they will
If you let them
Steal your heart from you
People
Will always make a lover feel a fool
But you knew I loved you
We could have shown them all
We should have seen love through

Fooled me with the tears in your eyes
Covered me with kisses and lies
So goodbye
But please don't take my heart

You are far
I'm never gonna be your star
I'll pick up the pieces
And mend my heart
Maybe I'll be strong enough
I don't know where to start
But I'll never find
Peace of mind
While I listen to my heart

People
You can never change the way the feel
Better let them do just what they will
For they will
If you let them
Steal your heart from you
People
Will always make a lover feel a fool
But you knew I loved you
We could have shown them all
We should have seen love through

But remember this
Every other kiss
That you'll ever give
Long as we both live
When you need the hand of another man
One you really can surrender with
I will wait for you
Like I always do
There's something there
That can't compare with any other

You are far
When I could have been your star
You listened to people
Who scared you to death
And from my heart
Strange that I was wrong enough
To think you'd love me too
I guess you were kissing a fool
You must have been kissing a fool
-----------------------------------

"How Sweet It Is"

Needed the shelter of someone's arms
And there you were
Needed someone to understand my ups and downs
And there you were
With sweet love and devotion
Touching my emotions

I wanna stop
And thank you baby
I just wanna stop
And thank you baby
Whoa Oh Yeah

How sweet it is to be loved by you
How sweet it is to be loved by you

I close my eyes at night
Wondering where would I be without you in my life?
Everything I did was such a bore
Everywhere I went you know
I'd been there before
But you brighten up for me all my days
With a love so sweet in so many ways
I wanna stop
And thank you baby
I just wanna stop and thank you baby
Whoa, oh

How sweet it is to be loved by you
How sweet it is to be loved by you

You were better to me than I was to myself
For me there is you and there ain't nobody else
I wanna stop
And thank you baby
I just wanna stop
And thank you baby
Oh, whoa, oh

How sweet it is to be loved by you

Foo Fighters | This Is A Call | Next Year

"This Is A Call"

visiting is pretty
visiting is good
seems that all they ever wanted was a brother
this can be a secret
we can keep it good
even all the ever wanting had a problem

this is a call to all my
past resignations
this is a call to all

fingernails are pretty
fingernails are good
seems that all they ever wanted was a marking

them balloons are pretty big
and say they should
ever fall to ground
call the magic marker

this is a call to all my
past resignations
this is a call to all
this is a call to all my
past resignatoins
it's been too long

minicyn is pretty
minicyn is good
seems that all the cysts and mollusks tend to barter

ritalin is easy
ritalin is good
even all the ones that watered down the daughter

----------------------------------------------------------

"Next Year"

I'm in the sky tonight,
There I can keep by your side
Watching the wide world riot and hiding out
I'll be coming home next year
Into the sun we climb
Climbing our wings will burn white
Everyone strapped in tight
We'll ride it out
I'll be coming home next year
Come on get on get on
Take it till life runs out
No one can find us now,
Living with our heads underground
Into the night we shine
Lighting the way we glide by
Catch me if I get too high
When I come down
I'll be coming home next year
I'm in the sky tonight
There i can keep by your side
Watching the whole world wind around and round
I'll be coming home next year
I'll be coming home next year
Everything's alright up here
When I come down
I'll be coming home next year
Say good-bye

NEON TREES | Animal | 1983

"Animal"

Here we go again
I kinda wanna be more than friends
So take it easy on me
I'm afraid you're never satisfied
Here we go again
We're sick like animals
We play pretend
You're just a cannibal
And I'm afraid
I won't get out alive
No, I won't sleep tonight

Oh oh
I want some more
Oh oh
What are you waiting for
Take a bite of my heart tonight
Oh oh
I want some more
Oh oh
What are you waiting for
What are you waiting for
Say goodbye to my heart tonight

Here we are again
I feel the chemicals kicking in
It's getting heavy
And I wanna run and hide
I wanna run and hide
I do it every time
You're killin' me now
And I won't be denied by you
The animal inside of you

Oh oh
I want some more
Oh oh
What are you waiting for
Take a bite of my heart tonight
Oh oh
I want some more
Oh oh
What are you waiting for
What are you waiting for
Say goodbye to my heart tonight

Hush, hush the world is quiet
Hush, hush we both can't fight it
It's us that made this mess
Why can't you understand?
Whoa, I won't sleep tonight
I won't sleep tonight
Here we go again [x2]

Oh oh
I want some more
Oh oh
What are you waiting for
Take a bite of my heart tonight

Oh oh
What are you waiting for
What are you waiting for
Say goodbye to my heart tonight

---------------------------------------

"1983"

I've been here lookin' dynamite
Alone against the wall
Girls like you give it all so cold
Talkin' cheap in a bathroom stall

And you look so smooth
You better tell me the truth
Would you trade me
Out for someone cool?
I know you better than you do
So put out your cigarette
And kiss me on
The lips tonight

[Chorus:]
Me and you
You and me
Let's go back
Let's go back
1983 is calling
I've been on my knees and crawlin'
Back to you
It's coming all back to me
1983

I've got something that I've kept inside
And the blood is on the blade
You're there suckin' on your lollipop
Like you haven't aged a day

And it ain't so pretty when you're playin' cute
When your body's up against some fool
Does he feel it?
Cuz I feel it

[Chorus]

The year I was born
I won't be ignored
So get your feet on the floor
I'm the only one
Are you afraid?
I still make you move

Me and you
You and me
Let's go back to 1983
Me and you
You and me
Let's go back to 1983

Whoa, whoa, whoa

[Chorus x2]

Whoa, whoa, whoa

MUSE | Escape | Plug In Baby

"Escape"

You would say anything
You would try anything
To escape your meaningless
And your insignificance
You're uncontrolable
And we are unloveable

And I don’t want you to think that I care
I never would
I never could
Again

Why can’t you just love her?
Why be such a monster?
You bully from a distance
Your brain needs some assistance

But I’ll still take all the blame
'Cause you and me are both one and the same
And it's driving me mad
And it's driving me mad
I’ll take back all the things that I said
I didn't realise I was always talking to the living dead

And I don’t want you to think that I care
I never would
I never could
Again

You would say anything
You would try anything
To escape your meaningless
And your insignificance
-----------------------------------------------------------------

"Plug In Baby"

I've exposed your lies, baby
The underneath is no big surprise
Now it's time for changing
And cleansing everything
To forget your love

My plug in baby
Crucifies my enemies
When I'm tired of giving
My plug in baby
In unbroken virgin realities
Is tired of living

Don't confuse
Baby you're gonna lose
Your own game
Change me
Replace the envying
To forget your love

My plug in baby
Crucifies my enemies
When I'm tired of giving
My plug in baby
In unbroken virgin realities
I'm tired of living

And I've seen your loving
But mine is gone
And I've been in trouble

SHERYL CROW | Can't Cry Anymore | I Shall Believe

"Can't Cry Anymore"

Took your car
Drove to Texas
Sorry, honey
But I suspected we were through
And I can't cry anymore
Since I left
Been feelin' better, cause that's
What you get when you
Stay together too long
And I can't cry anymore

[Chorus]
Wouldn't it be good if
we could hop a flight to anywhere
So long to this life
So much for pretending
Bad luck's never-ending
And now I know that

Money comes in
But the fact is
There's not enough to
Pay my taxes
And I can't cry anymore
Well, got a brother
He's got real problems
Heroin - no
There's just no stopping him tonight
And I won't cry anymore

[Chorus]

It's never ending

It could be worse
I could've missed my calling
Sometimes it hurts
But when you read the writing on the wall
Can't cry anymore

[Chorus]

And too much time I've been spending
With my heart in my hands
Waiting for time to come and mend it

I can't cry anymore

------------------------------------------------

"I Shall Believe"

Come to me now
And lay your hands over me
Even if it's a lie
Say it will be alright
And I shall believe

I'm broken in two
And I know you're on to me
That I only come home
When I'm so all alone
But I do believe

That not everything is gonna be the way
You think it ought to be
It seems like every time I try to make it right
It all comes down on me
Please say honestly you won't give up on me
And I shall believe
And I shall believe

Open the door
And show me your face tonight
I know it's true
No one heals me like you
And you hold the key

Never again
would I turn away from you
I'm so heavy tonight
But your love is alright
And I do believe

That not everything is gonna be the way
You think it ought to be
It seems like every time I try to make it right
It all comes down on me
Please say honestly
You won't give up on me
And I shall believe
I shall believe

"Put Your Hands Up (If You Feel Love)"

Look around I see a million different faces
But no one's looking in my eyes
It takes a minute when I mean these different places
Do you realise?

All we need is love in this life, it's true
All I need is the love I get from you
And I want to scream it out
If you hear what I'm saying

Put your hands up
If you feel the love tonight
If you feel the love
Now put your hands up
If you feel the love tonight
If you feel the love

No matter what, we're gonna take this moment
Now come on baby you can show me
So put your hands up
If you feel the love tonight
If you feel the love

Everybody knows how life can get so twisted
But I won't let it bring me down
There's no point in ever trying to resist it
Just work it out

All we need is love in this life, it's true
All I need is the love I get from you

So put your hands up
If you feel the love tonight
If you feel the love
Now put your hands up
If you feel the love tonight
If you feel the love

No matter what, we're gonna take this moment
Now come on baby you can show me
So put your hands up
If you feel the love tonight
If you feel the love

If you're callin' out tonight
Let me hear it now
Said If you're callin' out tonight
Let me hear it

Now put your hands up
If you feel the love
Now put your hands up
If you feel the love

[INTERLUDE]

So put your hands up
If you feel the love tonight
If you feel the love
Now put your hands up
If you feel the love tonight
If you feel the love

No matter what, we're gonna take this moment
Now come on baby you can show me
So put your hands up
If you feel the love tonight
If you feel the love

Falling Down

I’m falling down
And fifteen thousand people scream
They were all begging for your dream
I’m falling down
Five thousand houses burning down
No-one is gonna save this town

Too late
I already found what I was looking for
You know it wasn’t here
No it wasn’t here

I was calling your name
But you would never hear me sing
You wouldn’t let me begin
So I’m crawling away
'Cause you broke my heart in two
No, I will not forget you

Too late
I already found what I was looking for
You know it wasn’t you
No, it wasn’t you
Noo

Falling away
You would never see me through
No, I could not forget you
Falling down
Five thousand house burning down
No-one is gonna save this town

Too late
I already found what I was looking for
You know it wasn’t you
No, it wasn’t you
No

Falling down
Now the world is upside down
I’m heading straight for the clouds

Neutron Star Collision

I was searching
You were on a mission
And our hearts combined like
A neutron star collision

I have nothing left to lose
You took your time to choose
Then we told each other
With no trace of fear that

Our love would be forever
And if we die, we die together
And I, I said never
'Cause our love would be forever

The world is broken
And halos fail to glisten
You try to make a difference
But no one wants to listen

Hail the preachers, fake and proud
Their doctrines will be cloud
Then they'll dissipate
Like snowflakes in an ocean

Love, is forever
And we'll die, we'll die together
And I, I said never
'Cause our love could be forever

Now, I've got nothing left to lose
You take your time to choose
I can tell you now
Without a trace of fear

That my love will be forever
And we'll die, we'll die together
And I, I will never
'Cause our love will be forever
