Karaoke 2.0

The karaoke thread was getting too hard to sort through, so I started another one. I thought I'd start the new one with something old....a good old.

"The Weight" by The Band

I pulled into Nazareth, I was feelin' about half past dead;
I just need some place where I can lay my head.
"Hey, mister, can you tell me where a man might find a bed?"
He just grinned and shook my hand, and "No!", was all he said.

(Chorus:)
Take a load off Fannie, take a load for free;
Take a load off Fannie, And (and) (and) you can put the load right on me.

I picked up my bag, I went lookin' for a place to hide;
When I saw Carmen and the Devil walkin' side by side.
I said, "Hey, Carmen, come on, let's go downtown."
She said, "I gotta go, but m'friend can stick around."

(Chorus)

Go down, Miss Moses, there's nothin' you can say
It's just ol' Luke, and Luke's waitin' on the Judgement Day.
"Well, Luke, my friend, what about young Anna Lee?"
He said, "Do me a favor, son, woncha stay an' keep Anna Lee company?"

(Chorus)

Crazy Chester followed me, and he caught me in the fog.
He said, "I will fix your rags, if you'll take Jack, my dog."
I said, "Wait a minute, Chester, you know I'm a peaceful man."
He said, "That's okay, boy, won't you feed him when you can."

(Chorus)

Catch a Cannonball, now, t'take me down the line
My bag is sinkin' low and I do believe it's time.
To get back to Miss Annie, you know she's the only one.
Who sent me here with her regards for everyone.

(Chorus)

Dan Wilson Breathless

I'm hunting shadows in the dark
In steaming jungles of the world
Either to kill or to be killed
By creatures never named or heard

I'm lifting wishes to the stars
Their gleaming satellites of time
Orbiting circles overhead
To futures when your love is mine

But you were always pretty reckless with your love
Come with the sun and getting restless when it's gone
And when you go you leave me breathless and alone
You leave me breathless when you close the door
It feels just like you took the air out of the room with you

Your voice is echoing again
Through catacombs inside my mind
And I've been dreaming of revenge
To make you love me more than even you can try

All words converge to where you are
And if I follow I will surely find
The horses gone the fire still warm
And you've moved on an hour before
You like to keep me just one step behind

You were always pretty reckless with your love
Come with the sun and getting restless when it's gone
And when you go you leave me breathless and alone
You leave me breathless when you close the door
It feels just like you took the air out of the room with you
Breathless
Breathless
Breathless
Breathless

Yeah you were always pretty reckless with your love
Come with the sun and getting restless when it's gone
And when you go you leave me breathless and alone
You leave me breathless when you close the door
It feels just like you took the air out of the room with you

Restless when it's gone
Breathless and alone
You leave me breathless when you close the door
It feels just like you took the air out of the room with you
Breathless
Breathless
Breathless
Breathless

Coldplay - Trouble

  O no, I see,

I spun a web, it's tangled up with me,

And I lost my head,

The thought of all the stupid things I said,

O no what's this?

A spider web, and I'm caught in the middle,

I turned to run,

The thought of all the stupid things I've done,



I never meant to cause you trouble,

And I never meant to do you wrong,

And I, well if I ever caused you trouble,

O no, I never meant to do you harm.



O no I see,

A spider web and it's me in the middle,

So I twist and turn,

Here I am in love in a bubble,



Singing, I never meant to cause you trouble,

I never meant to do you wrong,

And I, well if I ever caused you trouble,

Although I never meant to do you harm.



They spun a web for me,

They spun a web for me,

They spun a web for me.

Mat Kearney - All i need

  Here it comes it's all blowing in tonight
I woke up this morning to a blood red sky
They're burning on the bridge turning off the lights
We're on the run I can see it in your eyes
If nothing is safe then I don't understand
You call me your boy but I'm trying to be the man
One more day and it's all slipping with the sand
You touch my lips and grab the back of my hand
The back of my hand

[chorus]
Guess we both know we're in over our heads
We got nowhere to go and no home that's left
The water is rising on a river turning red
It all might be OK or we might be dead
If everything we've got is slipping away
I meant what I said when I said until my dying day
I'm holding on to you, holding on to me
Maybe it's all gone black but you're all I see
You're all I see

The walls are shaking, I hear them sound the alarm
Glass is breaking so don't let go of my arm
Grab your bags and a picture of where we met
All that we'll leave behind and all that's left
If everything we've got is blowing away
We've got a rock and a rock till our dying day
I'm holding on to you, holding on to me
Maybe it's all we got but it's all I need
You're all I need

And if all we've got, is what no one can break,
I know I love you, if that's all we can take,
the tears are coming down, they're mixing with the rain,
I know I love you, if that's all we can take.

A pool is running for miles on the concrete ground
We're eight feet deep and the rain is still coming down
The TV's playing it all out of town
We're grabbing at the fray for something that won't drown

I went to a Lifehouse

I went to a Lifehouse concert tonight and this guy was their opening band. He signed cd's afterwards and I was lucky enough to meet him. He's a nice, nice guy. Anyways, this song "spoke" to me. Lyrically it's not anything really special but the melody and lyrics make it whole.

"Come On Get Higher"-Matt Nathanson

i miss the sound of your voice

and i miss the rush of your skin

and i still miss the still of silence

as you breathe out, and I breathe in

 

if i could walk on water, if i could tell you what's next

i'd make you believe, I'd make you forget

 

so, come on get higher

loosen my lips

faith and desire

in the swing of your hips

just pull me down hard

and drown me in love

 

I miss the sound of your voice

the loudest thing in my head

and i ache to remember

all the violent, sweet, perfect words that you said

 

if i could walk on water, if i could tell you what's next

i'd make you believe, i'd make you forget

 

so, come on get higher

loosen my lips

faith and desire

in the swing of your hips

just pull me down hard

and drown me in love

 

i miss the pull of your heart

i taste the sparks on your tongue

and i see angels and devils and god when you come on

hold on, hold on, love

sing sha la la love, sing, sing sh la la love

 

it's all wrong, it's all wrong, it's all right

cause everything works in your arms

Jordin Sparks - See my side

  This is my favourite song right now.

I've been trying for days to think of a way
To find the words to make sense of how we behave
This might take a while, so please just hear me out

You know how things can get crazy when we go ablaze
We just get carried away
Believe me, I know
Don't even say a word, now please just hear me out

[Chorus]
See my side
And I'll see yours better
Love me back
And I'll love you better

Sometimes the stunts that we pull don't even make sense
But I was never the one to feel the resent
This ain't 'bout who's to blame, so please just hear me out

When the scene gets intense, it's hard to prevent
From going all crazy again
Believe me, I know
Don't even say a word, now please just hear me out

[Chorus]
See my side
And I'll see yours better
Love me back
And I'll love you better

[Chorus]
See my side
And I'll see yours better
Love me back
And I'll love you better

We'll get right back
On the right track
We'll get right back on
We'll get right back on
On the right track

[Chorus]
See my side
And I'll see yours better
Love me back
And I'll love you better

[Chorus]
See my side
And I'll see yours better
Love me back
And I'll love you better

Nickelback - Rockstar

  I'm through with standing in line
To clubs we'll never get in
It's like the bottom of the ninth
And I'm never gonna win
This life hasn't turned out
Quite the way I want it to be

(Tell me what you want)

I want a brand new house
On an episode of Cribs
And a bathroom I can play baseball in
And a king size tub big enough
For ten plus me

(So what you need?)

I'll need a credit card that's got no limit
And a big black jet with a bedroom in it
Gonna join the mile high club
At thirty-seven thousand feet

(Been there, done that)

I want a new tour bus full of old guitars
My own star on Hollywood Boulevard
Somewhere between Cher and
James Dean is fine for me

(So how you gonna do it?)

I'm gonna trade this life for fortune and fame
I'd even cut my hair and change my name

[Chorus:]
'Cause we all just wanna be big rockstars
And live in hilltop houses driving fifteen cars
The girls come easy and the drugs come cheap
We'll all stay skinny 'cause we just won't eat
And we'll hang out in the coolest bars
In the VIP with the movie stars
Every good gold digger's
Gonna wind up there
Every Playboy bunny
With her bleach blond hair

Hey hey I wanna be a rockstar
Hey hey I wanna be a rockstar

I wanna be great like Elvis without the tassels
Hire eight body guards that love to beat up assholes
Sign a couple autographs
So I can eat my meals for free
(I'll have the quesadilla on the house)
I'm gonna dress my ass
With the latest fashion
Get a front door key to the Playboy mansion
Gonna date a centerfold that loves to
Blow my money for me
(So how you gonna do it?)
I'm gonna trade this life for fortune and fame
I'd even cut my hair and change my name

[Chorus]

And we'll hide out in the private rooms
With the latest dictionary and today's who's who
They'll get you anything with that evil smile
Everybody's got a drug dealer on speed dial, well

Hey hey I wanna be a rockstar

I'm gonna sing those songs
That offend the censors
Gonna pop my pills from a pez dispenser

I'll get washed-up singers writing all my songs
lip sync 'em every night so I don't get 'em wrong

[Chorus]

And we'll hide out in the private rooms
With the latest dictionary and today's who's who
They'll get you anything with that evil smile
Everybody's got a drug dealer on speed dial

Hey hey I wanna be a rockstar
Hey hey I wanna be a rockstar

Duran Duran - Ordinary World

  Came in from a rainy Thursday
On the avenue
Thought I heard you talking softly

I turned on the lights, the TV
And the radio
Still I can't escape the ghost of you

What has happened to it all?
Crazy, some are saying
Where is the life that I recognize?
Gone away

But I won't cry for yesterday
There's an ordinary world
Somehow I have to find
And as I try to make my way
To the ordinary world
I will learn to survive

Passion or coincidence
Once prompted you to say
"Pride will tear us both apart"
Well now pride's gone out the window
Cross the rooftops
Run away
Left me in the vacuum of my heart

What is happening to me?
Crazy, some'd say
Where is my friend when I need you most?
Gone away

But I won't cry for yesterday
There's an ordinary world
Somehow I have to find
And as I try to make my way
To the ordinary world
I will learn to survive

Papers in the roadside
Tell of suffering and greed
Here today, forgot tomorrow
Ooh, here besides the news
Of holy war and holy need
Ours is just a little sorrowed talk

And I don't cry for yesterday
There's an ordinary world
Somehow I have to find
And as I try to make my way
To the ordinary world
I will learn to survive

Every one
Is my world, I will learn to survive
Any one
Is my world, I will learn to survive
Any one
Is my world
Every one
Is my world

PINK FLOYD - WISH YOU WERE HERE

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?
And did they get you to trade your heroes for ghosts?
Hot ashes for trees?
Hot air for a cool breeze?
Cold comfort for change?
And 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 you found? The same old fears.
Wish you were here.

"For most of history, Anonymous was a woman" - Virginia Woolf

The Script - We cry

     

Together we cry…
Together we cry…

Jenny was a poor girl
Living in a rich world
Named her baby Hope when she was just fourteen
She was hoping for a better world
For this little girl
But the apple doesn’t fall too far from the tree

Well she gets that call
Hope’s too far gone
Her baby’s on the way
But nothing left inside
Together we cry!

What about the junk head
Could have gone the whole way
Lighting up the stage trying to get a deal
Now he’s lighting up the wrong way
“Something for the pain!”
Man you wanna see this kid he was so f@#kin’ unreal
When he gets that call
He’s too far gone
To get it together to sing one song
They won’t hear tonight
The words of a lullaby

Together we cry…
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Together we cry…
Whoah oh whoah oh whoah
Together we cry…
Oh we cry we cry we cry
Together we cry…
Oh we cry we cry
Whoah oh whoah oh whoah

Oh…Mary’s ambitious
She wanna to be a politician
She been dreaming about it since she was a girl
She thought that she’d be the one to change the world
Always trying to pave the way for women in a…man’s world
But life happened, house, kids, 2 cars, husband hits the jar, cheques that don’t go very far now
Now she in it can’t change it, she keeps her mind on her wages
The only rattling cages!

Together we cry
Together we cry

There comes a time when every bird has to fly
At some point every rose has to die
It’s hard to let your children go
Leave home
Where they go?
Who knows!
Getting drunk
Getting stoned
All alone
Teach a man to fish
You’ll feed him never lie
You show your kids the truth
Hope they never lie
Instead of reading in a letter that they’ve gone to something better
“Bet your sorry now! I won’t be coming home tonight”

I’m sick of looking for those heroes in the sky
To teach us how to fly
Together we cry!

Together we cry
Together we cry

Linkin Park - In the end

  "In The End"

(It starts with)
One thing / I don’t know why
It doesn’t even matter how hard you try
Keep that in mind / I designed this rhyme
To explain in due time
All I know
time is a valuable thing
Watch it fly by as the pendulum swings
Watch it count down to the end of the day
The clock ticks life away
It’s so unreal
Didn’t look out below
Watch the time go right out the window
Trying to hold on / but didn’t even know
Wasted it all just to
Watch you go
I kept everything inside and even though I tried / it all fell apart
What it meant to me / will eventually / be a memory / of a time when I tried so hard
And got so far
But in the end
It doesn't even matter
I had to fall
To lose it all
But in the end
It doesn't even matter
One thing / I don’t know why
It doesn’t even matter how hard you try
Keep that in mind / I designed this rhyme
To remind myself how
I tried so hard
In spite of the way you were mocking me
Acting like I was part of your property
Remembering all the times you fought with me
I’m surprised it got so (far)
Things aren’t the way they were before
You wouldn’t even recognize me anymore
Not that you knew me back then
But it all comes back to me
In the end
You kept everything inside and even though I tried / it all fell apart
What it meant to me / will eventually / be a memory / of a time when I tried so hard
And got so far
But in the end
It doesn’t even matter
I had to fall
To lose it all
But in the end
It doesn’t even matter
I've put my trust in you
Pushed as far as I can go
For all this
There’s only one thing you should know
I've put my trust in you
Pushed as far as I can go
For all this
There’s only one thing you should know
I tried so hard
And got so far
But in the end
It doesn’t even matter
I had to fall
To lose it all
But in the end
It doesn’t even matter

James Blunt - I really want you

  Many prophets preach on bended knee
Many clerics wasted wine
Do the bloodied sheets
On those cobbled streets
Mean I have wasted time

Are there silver shores on paradise?
Can I come in from the cold?
I killed a man in a far away land
My enemy I'm told

I really want you to really want me
But I really don't know if you can do that
I know you want to know I tried
But I know it's so hard for you to do that
And time's running out as often it does
And often dictates if you can't do that
Fate can't break this feeling inside
That's burning up through my veins

I really want you
I really want you
I really want you now

No matter what I say or do
The message isn't getting through
And you're listening to the sound
Of my breaking heart

I really want you
I really want you

Is a poor man rich in solitude?
Or will mother earth complain
Did the beggar pray for a sunny day but
Lady luck for rain

They say a million people bow and scrape
To an effigy of gold
As so life begin
And the ship we're in
And history unfold


I really want you to really want me
But I really don't know if you can do that (I really want you)
I know you want to know what's right
But I know it's so hard for you to do that (I really want you)
And time's running out as often it does
And often dictates that you can't do that
Fate can't break this feeling inside (now)
That's burning up through my veins

I really want you
I really want you
I really want you now

No matter what I say or do
The message isn't getting through
And you're listening to the sound
Of my breaking heart
No matter what I say or do
The message isn't getting through
And you're listening to the sound
Of my breaking heart

Gary Jules - Mad World

  All around me are familiar faces
Worn out places, worn out faces
Bright and early for their daily races
Going nowhere, going nowhere
And their tears are filling up their glasses
No expression, no expression
Hide my head I want to drown my sorrow
No tommorow, no tommorow

And I find it kind of funny
I find it kind of sad
The dreams in which I'm dying
Are the best I've ever had
I find it hard to tell you
I find it hard to take
When people run in circles
It's a very, very
Mad World
Mad World

Children waiting for the day they feel good
Happy Birthday, Happy Birthday
Made to feel the way that every child should
Sit and listen, sit and listen
Went to school and I was very nervous
No one knew me, no one knew me
Hello teacher tell me what's my lesson
Look right through me, look right through me

And I find it kind of funny
I find it kind of sad
The dreams in which I'm dying
Are the best I've ever had
I find it hard to tell you
I find it hard to take
When people run in circles
It's a very, very

Lil Mo / Cyndi Lauper - Time after time

  Time After Time

Lying in my bed I hear the clock tick,
And think of you
Caught up in circles
Confusion is nothing new
Flashback--warm nights--
Almost left behind
Suitcase of memories,
Time after--

Sometimes you picture me--
I'm walking too far ahead
You're calling to me, I can't hear
What you've said--
Then you say--go slow--
I fall behind--
The second hand unwinds

CHORUS:
If you're lost you can look--and you will find me
Time after time
If you fall I will catch you--I'll be waiting
Time after time

After my picture fades and darkness has
Turned to gray
Watching through windows--you're wondering
If I'm OK
Secrets stolen from deep inside
The drum beats out of time--

CHORUS

You said go slow--
I fall behind
The second hand unwinds--

CHORUS
Time after time
Time after time
Time after time
Time after time

Hope - Who Am I To Say

Love of my life, my soulmate
You're my best friend
Part of me like breathing
Now half of me is left

I don't know anything at all
Who am I to say you love me
I don't know anything at all
And who am I to say you need me

Color me blue I'm lost in you
Don't know why I'm still waiting
Many moons have come and gone
Don't know why I'm still searching

Don't know anything at all
And who am I to say you love me
I don't know anything at all
And who am I to say you need me

Hmmm hmmm mmm
Uhhh oohhh aahhh
Hooo aahhh ohh ohhh

Now you're a song I love to sing
Never thought it'd feel so free
Now I know what's meant to be
And that's okay with me

But who am I to say you love me
And who am I to say you need me
And who am I to say you love me

Mmmm Hmmm

I don't know anything at all
And who am I to say you love me
I don't know anything at all
And who am I to say you need me
I don't know anything at all

Taio Cruz - I can be

  Now I feel that this heart, of mine has taken many falls,
Still sometimes the rain, can turn into a waterfall,
The prettiest things, can come out of the coldest night, yeah,
And even with broken wings, sometimes you find your way to fly,

It's time to be, bigger bigger, stronger stronger, harder harder,
It's time to be, bigger bigger, stronger stronger, harder harder,
It's time to be,

Now I feel that this soul, of mine has had its many tolls, yeah,
Still sometimes the pain, is what we need for us to grow, yeah,
So when it's time for me, to look into my deeper side,
I will, I will find a way, to hold onto the love inside,

It's time to be, bigger bigger, stronger stronger, harder harder
Yes, I can be, bigger bigger, stronger stronger, harder harder
Yes, I can be, bigger bigger, stronger stronger, harder harder
Yes, I can be, bigger bigger, stronger stronger, harder harder
Yes, I can be, bigger bigger, stronger stronger, harder harder
Yes, I can be,

See I can be anything I want to be,
All I have to do is put my mind to it, and I can do it,
So what I want you to do, is put your fist to the sky, and say it with me,

I can be, bigger bigger, stronger stronger, harder harder
Yes, I can be, bigger bigger, stronger stronger, harder harder
Yes, I can be, bigger bigger, stronger stronger, harder harder
Yes, I can be, bigger bigger, stronger stronger, harder harder
Yes, I can be,
I can be... Actually the remix version with Estelle is better.

UB40 "Girl I wanna make you sweat" "Bring me your cup"

Girl I wanna make you sweat 

 

I've been watching you

C'mon!

Hey!

Standing across the room
I saw you smile
Said I want to talk to you-oo-oo
For a little while
But before I make my move
My emotions start running wild
My tongue gets tied
And that's no lie

Looking in your eyes
Looking in your big brown eyes
Ooh yeah
And I've got this to say to you
Hey!

Girl I want to make you sweat
Sweat till you can't sweat no more
And if you cry out
I'm gonna push it some, mo-o-ore
Girl I want to make you sweat
Sweat till you can't sweat no more
And if you cry out
I'm gonna push it
Push it, push it some more

C'mon!

Ooh

So I said to myself
"Does she love me or not?"

But the dreads done know
That love is his to get
With a little bit of this
And a little bit of that
the lyrics goes on the attack
My tongue gets tied
And that's no lie

Looking in your eyes
Looking in your big brown eyes
Ooh girl
And I've got this to say to you
Hey!

Girl I want to make you sweat
Sweat till you can't sweat no more
And if you cry out
I'm gonna push it some mo-o-ore
Girl I want to make you sweat
Sweat till you can't sweat no more
And if you cry out
I'm gonna push it
Push it, push it some more

Ooh yeah!

One more time!

Sing it!

Hey!

Woo woo woo woo wee yeah

I'm looking in your big brown eyes
Ooh Yeah
And I've got this to say to you
Hey!

Girl I want to make you sweat
Sweat till you can't sweat no more
And if you cry out
I'm gonna push it some mo-o-ore
Girl I want to make you sweat
Sweat till you can't sweat no more
And if you cry out
I'm gonna push it
Push it, push it some more

Yeah!

Push it, push it some more

Alright!

Push it, push it some more

 

Bring Me Your Cup

Did I ever say, how I feel about you
And did I ever find, that easy to do
Things that you do, don't need to be heard
You know your actions, baby
speak louder than words

(CHORUS)
I've got the bottle, bring me your cup
pop the cork and try a sup
when you're empty I'll fill you up
We'll drink it down 'till the sun comes up

I'm heading home
like a steaming train
Foot to the floor in the driving rain
My head is aching and my mouth is dry
I've got thirst that only you can satisfy

(CHORUS) x 2
I've got the bottle
Bring me your cup
Pop the cork and try a sup
When you're empty I'll fill you up
We'll drink it down 'till the sun comes up

I'm heading home
like a steaming train
Foot to the floor in the driving rain
My head is aching and my mouth is dry
I've got thirst that only you can satisfy

(CHORUS) x 4
I've got the bottle
Bring me your cup
Pop the cork and try a sup
When you're empty I'll fill you up
We'll drink it down 'till the sun comes up

Become my love my baby, I don’t mean no nor maybe
you know you drive me crazy, Sexy lady!
Because I want you honey
Making your love not money
You make my days so sunny
My sweet honey
I want to kiss you baby
Me want to squeeze you honey
Me want caress you darling
You're my lady, Me want to please you honey
Don't try to tease me baby
Me want your loving honey
Want my loving
Climb up on top my lady
Please don't stop my baby
I'm like a rock my darling, One and only
I brought the meat now baby
I know you got the gravy
I know your love will save me
My sweet lady

Become my love my baby, I don’t mean no nor maybe
Because I want you honey
Making your love not money
I want to kiss you darling
Me want to squeeze you darling
Me want to please you baby
Ride up on top my darling, please don’t stop my darling
I brought the meat now lady
I know you got the gravy
I want your lovin’ honey
You want my lovin’ honey
You know you drive me crazy
I know your love will save me
Sexy lady, sexy lady, sex, sex, sex, sexy lady (x 3 Until fade)

Richie Griffin - The Rain

 If i could turn back time then i would, 

If i could change just your mind then im good

If i could alter your path to a different direction then the next thing i would do was show you love,

Because im not here for you to like me but i hope you do

Because life is so much easier with me and you

You dont have to humour me because i respect your thoughts

Just look inside me because you make me blush

Because im embarrassed sure your uncomfortable

But that is something i would never want to do

I want you to want me   is that so bad

I want to know are you going to grab my hand or let me go

Thriving Ivory - Angels on

Thriving Ivory - Angels on the Moon

Do you dream, that the world will know your name
So tell me your name
Do you care, about all the little things or anything at all?
I wanna feel, all the chemicals inside I wanna feel
I wanna sunburn, just to know that I'm alive
To know I'm alive

Don't tell me if I'm dying, cause I don't wanna know
If I can't see the sun, maybe I should go
Don't wake me cause I'm dreaming, of angels on the moon
Where everyone you know, never leaves too soon

Do you believe, in the day that you were born
Tell me do you believe?
And do you know, that everyday's the first of the rest of your life

Don't tell me if I'm dying, cause I don't wanna know
If I can't see the sun, maybe I should go
Don't wake me 'cause I'm dreaming, of angels on the moon
Where everyone you know, never leaves too soon

This is to one last day in the shadows
And to know a brother's love
This is to New York City angels
And the rivers of our blood
This is to all of us, to all of us

Don't tell me if I'm dying, cause I don't wanna know
If I can't see the sun, maybe I should go
Don't wake me cause I'm dreaming, of angels on the moon
Where everyone you know, never leaves too soon

You can tell me all your thoughts, about the stars that fill polluted skies
And show me where you run to, when no-one's left to take your side
But don't tell me where the road ends, cause I just don't wanna know
No I don't wanna know

Don't tell me if I'm dying
Don't tell me if I'm dying
Don't tell me if I'm dying

The Source ft Candi Staton - You got the love

I listen to this when im down, its one of those  feel good tunes.

 

  

Sometimes I feel like
Throwing my hands up in the air
I know I can count on you
Sometimes I feel like saying
Lord I just don't care
But you've got the love I need
To see me through

Sometimes it seems that
The going is just too rough
And things go wrong
No matter what I do
Now and then I feel
That life is just too much
But you've got the love
I need to see me through

When food is gone
You are my daily meal
When friends are gone I know
My saviour's love is real
Your love is real

Every once in a while
I say Lord I can't go on
Every once in a while
I get to feeling blue
Every once in a while
it seems like I am all alone
But you got the love
I need to see me through

Occasionally
my thoughts are brave and friends are few
Occasionally
I cry out Lord what must I do
Occasionally
I call up Master make me new
You've got the love
I need to see me through

Sometimes I feel like
Throwing my hands up in the air
I know I can count on you
Sometimes I feel like saying
Lord I just don't care
But you've got the love I need
To see me through

Sinead O'Connor - The Last Day Of Our Acquaintance

  This is the last day of our acquaintance
I will meet you later in somebody's office
I'll talk but you won't listen to me
I know what your answer will be

I know you don't love me anymore
You used to hold my hand when the plane took off
Two years ago there just seemed so much more
And I don't know what happened to our love

Today's the day
Our friendship has been stale
And we will meet later to finalise the details
Two years ago the seed was planted
And since then you have taken me for granted

But this is the last day of our acquaintance
I will meet you later in somebody's office
I'll talk but you won't listen to me
I know your answer already

But this is the last day of our acquaintance
I will meet you later in somebody's office
I'll talk but you won't listen to me
I know your answer already
I know your answer already
I know your answer already .

Fort Minor - Believe Me

 "Believe Me"

[chorus]
I guess
That this is where we've come to
If you don't want to
Then you don't have to believe me
But I won't be there when you go down
Just so you know now
You're on your own now believe me

I don't want to be the one to blame
You like fun and games
Keep playing em
I'm just saying
Think back then
We was like one and the same
On the right track
But I was on the wrong train
Just like that
Now you've got a face to pain
And the devil's got a fresh new place to play
In your brain like a maze you can never escape the rain
Every damn day is the same shade of grey

Hey
I used have a little bit of a plan
Used to
Have a concept of where I stand
But that concept slipped right out of my hands
Now I don't really even know who I am
Yo, what do I have to say
Maybe I should do what I have to do to break free
What ever happens to you, we'll see
But it's not gonna happen with me

[chorus]
I guess
That this is where we've come to
If you don't want to
Then you don't have to believe me
But I won't be there when you go down
Just so you know now
You're on your own now believe me

Back then, I thought you were just like me
Somebody who could see all the pain I see
But you proved to me unintentionally
That you would self-destruct eventually
Now I'm thinking like the mistake I made doesn't hurt
But it's not gonna work
Cause it's really much worse than I thought
I wished you were something that you were not
And now this guilt is really all that I got

You turned your back
And walked away in shame
All you got is a memory of pain
Nothing makes sense so you stare at the ground
I hear your voice in my head when no one else is around
What do I have to say
Maybe I should do what I have to do to break free
What ever happens to you, we'll see
But it's not gonna happen with me

[chorus]
I guess
That this is where we've come to
If you don't want to
Then you don't have to believe me
But I won't be there when you go down
Just so you know now
You're on your own now believe me

[bridge]

[chorus]
I guess
That this is where we've come to
If you don't want to
Then you don't have to believe me
But I won't be there when you go down
Just so you know now
You're on your own now believe me

Do what i have to do
You're on your own now believe me

What ever happens to you
You're on your own now believe me

What do I have to say
You're on your own now believe me

It's not gonna happen with me
You're on your own now believe me

Suspicious Minds Were

Suspicious Minds

Were caught in a trap
I cant walk out
Because I love you too much baby

Why cant you see
What youre doing to me
When you dont believe a word I say?

We cant go on together
With suspicious minds
And we cant build our dreams
On suspicious minds

So, if an old friend I know
Drops by to say hello
Would I still see suspicion in your eyes?

Here we go again
Asking where Ive been
You cant see these tears are real
Im crying

We cant go on together
With suspicious minds
And be cant build our dreams
On suspicious minds

Oh let our love survive
Or dry the tears from your eyes
Lets dont let a good thing die

When honey, you know
Ive never lied to you
Mmm yeah, yeah

Snow Patrol - Lifeboats

 
Hold on hold on, let me get the words out before I burst
There's no truth at all poking at the giant eyes of ancient gods
Cool heads have failed now it's time for me to have my turn
Kiss me kiss me, life is way too short to scream and shout.

Flashed up in my wildest dreams the dark red blood streams
Stretching out like vast cracked ice
The veins of you the veins of me like great forest trees
Pushing through and on and in
Gliding like a satellite in the broken night
And when I wake you're there I'm saved
Your love is life piled tight and high set against the sky
That seems to balance on it's own

Sing out sing out, the silence only eats us from the inside up
I meant no harm but I only get to say these words too late
Wake up wake up, dreaming only leads to more and more nightmares
Snap out of it you said it in a way that showed you really cared.

Flashed up in my wildest dreams the dark red blood streams
Stretching out like vast cracked ice
The veins of you the veins of me like great forest trees
Pushing through and on and in
Gliding like a satellite in the broken night
And when I wake you're there I'm saved
Your love is life piled tight and high set against the sky
That seems to balance on its own

Send your lifeboats out for me
Send your lifeboat out

I beg of you Stay Gone-

I beg of you

Stay Gone- Jimmy Wayne

I've found peace of mind, i'm feeling good again
I'm on the other side, back among the living
Ain't a cloud in the sky
All my tears have been cried
And i can finally say

[Chorus:]
Baby baby stay
Stay right where you are
I like it this way
It's good for my heart
I haven't felt like this
In God knows how long
I know everything's gonna be okay
If you just stay gone

I still love you and i will forever
We can't hide the truth
We know each other better
When we try to make it work
We both end up hurt
It ain't supposed to be that way

[Chorus:]
Baby baby stay
Stay right where you are
I like it this way
It's good for my heart
I haven't felt like this
In God knows how long
I know everything's gonna be okay
If you just stay gone

When we try to make it work
We both end up hurt
Love ain't supposed to be that way

[Chorus:]
So baby baby stay
Stay right where you are
I like it this way
It's good for my heart
I haven't felt like this
In ooh in God knows how long
I know everything's gonna be okay
If you just stay gone

I know everything's gonna be okay
If you just stay gone

UB40 - Seasons

  Like the seasons you change your mind
It seems like loving you is a crime.

I remember those days
Oh, so long ago
Like the first time I took you
To a picture show
Or the first time I kissed you
Beneath the moonlit sky
I put my hand on my heart
I thought I`d die
Like the seasons, etc ...


Yes, you were for me
It was plain to see
I knew in my heart


You were the one for me
Though people used to try
To get us down
As time goes on
We`re still around
Like the seasons, etc...


We had our share
Of ups and downs
We had our share
Of nights on the town
The days were short
But the nights were long
My love for you
It grew so strong
Like the seasons, etc ...


But as we grew old
Your love turned cold
Gone are the days
Of glitter and gold
I work so hard
To keep you mine
Now all I have is
Nothing but time


Like the seasons, etc ...

And Id give up forever to touch you
cause I know that you feel me somehow
Youre the closest to heaven that ill
Ever be
And I dont want to go home right now

And all I can taste is this moment
And all I can breathe is your life
cause sooner or later its over
I just dont want to miss you tonight

And I dont want the world to see me
cause I dont think that theyd
Understand
When everythings made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

And you cant fight the tears that aint
Coming
Or the moment of truth in your lies
When everything feels like the movies
Yeah you bleed just to know youre alive

And I dont want the world to see me
cause I dont think that theyd
Understand
When everythings made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

And I dont want the world to see me
cause I dont think that theyd
Understand
When everythings made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

And I dont want the world to see me
cause I dont think that theyd
Understand

Will Young - You Dont Know

From the fantastic album Let It Go . 

  You Took me in
When id fallen apart, Took me back to the start
Where to begin
I was broken alone, There were pieces of me
You saved me
The search was sweet
The piece of the puzzle, The end of my troubles
When you found me

You don't know what you did for me
I was all alone, I was nearly gone
You don't know when you carried me
Took my broken bones and put them back together.

You took me back
I had fallen off track, A castaway out in the sea
You set my path
Your a safe place to fall , Gave me comfort and sweetness
You saved me
Gracefully
The end of my troubles, Coz' you burst a bubble
When you found me


You don't know what you did for me
I was all alone, I was nearly gone
You don't know when you carried me
Took my broken bones and put them back together.


You don't (you don't know) know what you did for me (did for me)
I was all alone, I was nearly gone
You don't know (you don't know) when you carried me (carried me)
Took my broken bones and put them back together.


You don't know (you don't know) what you did for me
I was all alone, I was nearly gone
You don't know ( you don't know) when you carried me
Took my broken bones and put them back together.

You took me in

Will Young - Tell Me The Worst

  Show me your hands, your nails, your scars.
Show me where it hurts.
Show me the wounds, the cuts, the trails,
That lead back to where it happened first.

I only wanna see you.
I only wanna know,
Who you really are

So tell me the worst.
I'll tell you mine.
I got close before,
But I turn back every time.

It hurts I know
It's the hardest thing you'll ever have to do

So tell me the worst,
It's your only hope.
Don't go back again.
Don't save yourself from falling.

Imagine we drove across this country,
But didn't quite make it to the sea.
Imagine we're halfway through a movie,
And then you just ran out on me.

If that's all you're gonna give me...
Is that all you wanna take?
'Cos that's just not enough.

So tell me the worst.
I'll tell you mine.
I got close before,
But I turn back every time.

It hurts, I know.
It's the bravest thing you'll ever have to do.

So fake your words.
Have you just put off,
What you should have done years ago?

I wrote this song about you
But you know it's also where I fall down
Why don't I cool out

I show my worst
I got close before,
But I turn back every time

It hurts I know
It's the bravest thing you'll ever have to do

So tell me the worst,
I'll tell you mine
I got close before,
But I turn back every time

It hurts, I know.
It's the hardest place you'll ever have to go.

So tell me the worst.
It's your only hope.
Don't go back again.
Don't save yourself from falling...

Tell me the worst.
Tell me the worst.

Will Young - This is who i am

  I don't wanna be here forever
You can hide on your own in your own special way
with nothing to say
Well enough is enough and i dont need it
When your livin it up no you cannot get down
You cannot get down

I have things to say
Don't you stand in my way
This is who i am
SO BAD!!!

I'm turning it around
I have Been away
I have been Re-born
I'm feeling it in my soul
This is were i stand
this is how i feel
I had to decide
This is who i am

I can open my eyes and believe it
The smile in my heart there's a feeling inside
A feeling inside
its my love its my life and i live it
The way that i choose i don't care if its right
If its right

I have things to say
Don't you stand in my way
This is who i am
SO BAD!!!

I'm turning it around
I have Been away
I have been Re- born
I'm feeling it in my soul
This is were i stand
this is how i feel
I had to decide
This is who i am

Now i feel i found a way to go
Don't stand in my way
Oh i never feel a fool
Coz' its easy not to say
I don't wanna tell you to give it up
Coz' its easily mistaken
Your out of your mind
Ive seen you before
I don't wanna tell you to give it up
there's no way I'm self destructing
I will see you fall...... away

I'm turning it around
I have Been away
I have been Re- born
I'm feeling it in my soul
This is were i stand
this is how i feel
I had to decide
This is who i am

Don't give it up
Don't give it up

Hey don't give it up

Fleetwood Mac - Dreams

Now, here you go again you say you want your freedom

Well, who am I to keep you down, down?

It's only right that you should play the way you feel it

But listen carefully to the sound

Of your loneliness, like a heartbeat, drives you mad

In the stillness of remembering what you had

And what you lost

Oh, thunder only happens when it's raining

Players only love you when they're playing

Women, they will come and they will go

When the rain washes you clean, you'll know... You'll know

Now, here I go again I see your crystal visions

I keep my visions to myself

It's only me who wants to wrap around you dreams and

Have you any dreams you'd like to sell

Dreams of loneliness like a heartbeat drives you mad

In the stillness of remembering what you had

And what you lost

You know this lady's not in waiting for words untrue
I have to die

'Cause I'd rather crawl home bleeding than be
Chained to you I love your freedom
Hate me, need me, love me, tease me, beg me
Please me, take me, breathe me
Baby you know I'm trouble still you
Wanna be the one to smash my bubble
How strong, how tough, how sweet, how
Must you feel to rough me up for real

In love I trust, I put my faith
To make me happy to keep me safe
In you I find a way to lose myself
Thrill me baby, I need nothing else

I ain't gonna be your dog
You know this lady's contemplating your worth at all
I'll make you cry
'Cause I'd rather lose you than lose my way
Oh you know I don't mean it I only suffer when I go astray
Your words they sting you make me sing
I want to bring you everything
Jesus I feel what you mean to me
I want to meet you on a dirt road and walk with you endlessly
Oh Lord, my God, when you get hard
How can I stop, how can I not

In love I trust, I put my faith
To make me happy, to keep me safe
In you I see the brightest star
That burns inside me and breaks my heart
And when I cry the deepest hurting
Cleans my soul, relieves my burden
In you I find a way to lose myself
Thrill me baby, I need nothing else

In love I must feel all my pain
And all my joy and all my shame
And every time you call on me
Through my struggles you set me free
To feel your power, your gracious strength
And on my knees it's your restraint
That makes me find one greater than myself
Love me baby, love me baby
I need, I need, I need
I need, I need nothing else

Will Young - Grace

  Feeling so strange I'm seeing you clearly now
Your beauty's deadlier everyday
All these people am I the only one
Who found you out
Is no one willing to say, willing to say, willing to say

Why don't you slow down
Turn your head round
Been treading on hearts
That are giving in with a little
Grace - you're getting away with it
Words - but nothing to say with it
You smile and take what you need in any way that you please
Isn't it a shame
You've
Nothing to show from these
Lies - I told you you'd pay for it
Lonely are the days of your life

You spoke in rhymes and rhythms
The sweetest sounds
They drew me in like a moth to a flame
Oh, all these people you hurt along the way
Will haunt you now
'Cos things are going to change, going to change, going to change

Why don't you slow down
Turn your head round
Been treading on hearts
That are giving in with a little
Grace - you're getting away with it
Words - but nothing to say with it
You smile and take what you need in any way that you please
Isn't it a shame
You've
Nothing to show from these
Lies - I told you you'd pay for it
Lonely are the days of your life

You're beginning to lose
Things are fading in front of your eyes

You've a long way to fall
Before you even realize
That this loneliness hurts
Lonely will be the days of your life
Oh

Grace - you're getting away with it
Words and nothing to say with it
You blame but you're not ashamed of it
Hurt - you don't feel the pain of it
Lie - straight in the face of it
Your mind - you should be afraid of it
Your grace - you're getting away with it
Nothing to get in my way
With a little grace - you're getting away with it
Words and nothing to say with it
Lonely are the days of your life

Lonely are the days
You lie - straight in the face of it
Your mind, your mind - you should be afraid
You're heading for trouble

I love this song. He has such a good voice .

Sophie B Hawkins - Right beside you

  I'm dancing in the shadows of life
And death is all around me tonight
I miss you making love to me right
Beside myself I'm holding you tight
Someone is waiting for me to rise
And dive into the ocean I cried
And I cried and I cried my baby to sleep
Beside myself my soul to keep

Right beside you I see
Right beside you I stay
Right beside you I'll be
Right beside you always

We're dancing in the shade of the summer sun
The drums are playing
The change to come was yesterday
In the heat beside myself I need to keep

Right beside you I feel
Right beside you I am
Right beside you I kneel
Right beside you I stand
Right beside you I see
Right beside you I stay
Right beside you I'll be
Right beside you always

Driving into town with the top down
Sun sinking low into the water I can feel your speed
One hand on the wheel one hand on my knee
I can tell you what I want you can do what you need
Darling nights are getting cooler in the city so close
There's a place we can do it somewhere right along the coast
We'll arrive on time just a little bit late
It's not a matter of style just a lesson in taste

I remember when I was your child
You made me up to be your lover
Now I'm standing right beside you
Other people still exsist
I don't pretend to love them less but darling
When you drive this way I lose my breath

Right beside you I feel
Right beside you I am
Right beside you I kneel
Right beside you I stand
Right beside you I see
Right beside you I stay
Right beside you I'll be
Always

Right beside you I feel
Right beside you I am
Right beside you I kneel
Right beside you I stand
Right beside you I see
Right beside you I stay
Right beside you I'll be
Right beside you always .

I am thinking of you x

Will Young - You and I

  Cut to the chase
Your pretty face
Searched outer space
Leaving no trace
Making love in the heavens above
Flying so high
You and I
You and I
You and I

Can't get my head around you
Can't bear to be without you
I Can't stop from thinking about you
You turned my life around

Can't get my head around you
Can't bear to be without you
I Can't stop from thinking about you
You turned my life around

Time standing still
Inch time to kill
Cheating the wheel
There are moments to steal
So another day,
Gets brushed away
Preoccupied
You and I
You and I
You and I

Can't get my head around you
Can't bear to be without you
I Can't stop from thinking about you
You turned my life around

Can't get my head around you
Can't bear to be without you
I Can't stop from thinking about you
You turned my life around

Yeah
Yeah yeah yeah
Oh oh yeah

Making love in the heavens above,
Flying so high
You... and.... I

Can't get my head around you
Can't bear to be without you
I can't stop from thinking about you
You turned my life around

Can't get my head around you
Can't bear to be without you
I can't stop from thinking about you
You turned my life around

Can't get my head around you
Can't bear to be without you
I can't stop from thinking about you
You turned my life around

I Can't get my head around you
I Can't bear to be without you
I can't stop from thinking about you
You turned my life around

I Can't get my head around you
I Can't bear to be without you
I can't stop from thinking about you
You turned my life around

till fade........

Kosheen - Wish you were here

This century
Is caused by reckless handling
And causes insecurity
Distance isn't good for me
Memories far past and done

And I wish you were here [2x]

Into me
Driving the reality
Rolling right up over me
I'm not where I want to be
By your side

And I wish you were here [2x]

I wish you were here
I wish I could change
Turn around the time
Rearrange the play
Even though you're near
You seem so far away
You seem to disappear
From sight and sound
Ain't gone again

And I wish you were here
(Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah)
(Here)

Will Young - Who am i

  Sometimes you know you push me so hard
I don't know how I feel
You almost make me doubt I feel at all

It's not as though I always listen
But there's just so much I don't hear
Maybe I'll never be what you want
I know that all you're asking for
Is a little place in my heart
But I don't find it easy to give

Maybe I get a little selfish sometimes
Why shouldn't I?
I used to say I love you
But would it make a difference this time?

[Chorus]
And who am I to tell you that I would never let you down
That no-one else could love you half as much as I do now
And who am I to tell you I'll always catch you when you fall
Well I, I wouldn't be myself at all
I wouldn't be myself at all, at all.

I always find a reason why I didn't put you first
It's not that complicated I know
I really hate it when you shake your head like this ain't gonna work
Maybe you'll never reap what you sow

[Chorus]

I didn't want to do what everybody does
And hide the truth to find we never knew a thing about love
Cos this is real life, real love
And knowing what it comes down too
It just might be enough

[Chorus x2]

James Morrison - Nothing ever hurt like you

  Loving you was easy, playing by the rules
But you said love tastes so much better when it's cruel
To you everything was just a game
And oh yeah, you played me good
But I want you, I want you, I want you
So much more than I should, yes I do

I've got my hands up, so take your aim, yeah, I'm ready
There's nothing that we can't go through
Oh, it hit me like a steel freight train when you left me
And nothing ever hurt like you, nothing ever hurt like you

I was naive and wide-eyed, but you made me see
That you don't get to taste the honey
Without the sting of a bee, no, you don't
Oh yes, you stung me good, oh yeah, you dug in deep
But I'll take it, I'll take it, I'll take it
Till I'm down on my knees, on my knees

Oh, I've got my hands up, so take your aim, yeah, I'm ready
There ain't nothing that I won't do
Walk a thousand miles on broken glass
It won't stop me from making my way back to you
It's not real until you feel pain
And nothing ever hurt like you, nothing ever hurt like you
Oh, nothing hurt like you, you got to believe me, alright

Oh, everything was just a game, yes, you played me good
But I want you, I want you, I want you, I want you, I want you

Oh, I've got my hands up, so take your aim, yes, I'm ready
There ain't nothing that we can't go through
Oh, it hit me like a hurricane when you left me
But I'd do it all again for you

I'll walk a thousand miles on broken glass
It won't stop me from making my way back to you
It's not real until you feel the pain
And nothing ever hurt like you, nothing ever hurt like you

Nothing in the whole wide world
Nothing ever, nothing ever, nothing ever
Nothing ever hurt like you, like you
Like you, like you, hurt like you
Will ever, will never hurt like you, you, you, you
Nothing ever hurt like you

Coldplay - Lost

  Just because I'm losing
Doesn't mean I'm lost
Doesn't mean I'll stop
Doesn't mean I'm in a cross

Just because I'm hurting
Doesn't mean I'm hurt
Doesn't mean I didn't get what I deserve
No better and no worse

I just got lost
Every river that I've tried to cross
And every door I ever tried was locked
Ooh-Oh, And I'm just waiting till the shine wears off...

You might be a big fish
In a little pond
Doesn't mean you've won
'Cause along may come
A bigger one

And you'll be lost
Every river that you try to cross
Every gun you ever held went off
Ooh-Oh, And I'm just waiting till the firing stops
Ooh-Oh, And I'm just waiting till the shine wears off
Ooh-Oh, And I'm just waiting till the shine wears off
Ooh-Oh, And I'm just waiting till the shine wears off...

Lamb - Small

 

Sometimes I climb High above the city
To see all the lights shining there so pretty
And think of the millions of lives going on
At this present moment and those come and gone

And it make me float free
To feel how small my life must be
And it make me float free
To feel how small my life must be

When ever I can I go down to the sea
And wonder at how many miles there must be
And all of the people on all of its shores
At this present moment and those gone before

And it makes me float free
To feel how small my life must be
And it make me float free…

Sometimes I’m out in the bustling street
Dazz-led by all of the faces I see
It strikes me we get lost so soon after birth
But one smile can turn-over heaven and Earth

And it makes me float free
To feel how small my life must be
And it makes me float free
To feel how small my life must be
And it makes me float free
To feel how small my life must be
And it makes me float free
To feel how small my life must be

Elbow - One day like this

Love all their songs.

 

 

Drinking
In the morning sun
Blinking
In the morning sun
Shaking off
The heavy one
Heavy
Like a loaded gun

What made me
Behave that way?
Using words
I never say
I can only think
It must be love
Oh, anyway
It's looking
Like a beautiful day

Someone tell me
How I feel
It's silly wrong
But vivid right
Oh, kiss me
Like the final meal
Yeah, kiss me
Like we die tonight

Cause holy cow
I love your eyes
And only now
I see the light
Yeah
Lying with me
Half-awake
Oh, anyway
It's looking
Like a beautiful day

When my face
Is chamois-creased
If you think
I'll wink, I did
Laugh politely
At repeats
Yeah, kiss me
When my lips are thin

Cause holy cow
I love your eyes
And only now
I see you like
Yeah, lying with me
Half-awake
Stumbling over
What to say
Well, anyway
It's looking
Like a beautiful day

So throw
Those curtains wide
One day like this
A year'd see me right

You Can't Make A Heart Love Somebody - George Strait

At a table for two, with candle light and wine.
That diamond burnin' holes in his pockets, thinkin' now's the perfect time.
When he popped the question, he could see the teardrops fill her eyes.
She said I knew this was comin' and I'm sorry, but I hope you realize.

[Chorus:]
You can't make a heart love somebody.
You can tell it what to do, but it won't listen at all.
You can't make a heart love somebody.
You can lead a heart to love, but you can't make it fall.

Then she reached for his hand and said, I want you to know,
I've done everything that I know of to make the feeling grow.
I've begged and I've pleaded with my heart, but there's no gettin' through.
My heart's the only part of me that's not in love with you.

[Chorus]

You can lead a heart to love, but you can't make it fall.
