Do Not Go Gentle – Lyrics
Johnny Cash – Hurt
I hurt myself today
to see if I still feel
I focus on the pain
the only thing that's real
the needle tears a hole
the old familiar sting
try to kill it all away
but I remember everything
what have I become?
my sweetest friend
everyone I know
goes away in the end
and you could have it all
my empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you hurt
I wear this crown of thorns
upon my liar's chair
full of broken thoughts
I cannot repair
beneath the stains of time
the feelings disappear
you are someone else
I am still right here
what have I become?
my sweetest friend
everyone I know
goes away in the end
and you could have it all
my empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you hurt
if I could start again
a million miles away
I would keep myself
I would find a way
Tom McRae – Still Lost
So my love I
Left this world for a while
For a while
I float through strange days
Search the one way to
Bring me back to you
So don't let me go
Don't let me go
Don't let me go
From here
'Cos I'll be still lost
I'll be still lost
I'll be still lost
I'll be still lost
When you come
When will you come
To look for me
If I was to
Call you
Would you come
And if I was to
Call you
Would you come
Oh my love
When will you come to look for me
'Cos I'll be still lost
I'll be still lost
I'll be still lost
I'll be still lost
When you come
Why don't you come
To look for me?
Alexi Murdoch – Song For You
So today I wrote a song for you
Cause a day can get so long
And I know its hard to make it through
When you say there’s something wrong
So Im trying to put it right
Cause I want to love you with my heart
All this trying has made me tight
And I don’t know even where to start
Maybe that’s a start
For you know its a simple game
That you play filling up your head with rain
And you know you’ve been hiding from your pain
In the way, in the way you say your name
And I see you
Hiding your face in your hands
Flying so you wont land
You think no one understands
No one understands
So you hunch your shoulders and you shake your head
And your throat is aching but you swear
No one hurts you, nothing could be sad
Anyway you’re not here enough to care
And you’re so tired you don’t sleep at night
As your heart is trying to mend
You keep it quiet but you think you might
Disappear before the end
And its strange that you cannot find
Any strength to even try
To find a voice to speak your mind
When you do, all you wanna do is cry
Well maybe you should cry
And I see you hiding your face in your hands
Talking bout far-away lands
You think no one understands
Listen to my hands
And all of this life
Moves around you
For all that you claim
You’re standing still
You are moving too
You are moving too
You are moving too
I will move you
Bright Eyes – Theme to Piñata
Well I wish I had a parachute
Cause I'm falling bad for you
I can see the ground approaching now
But I'm not sure what to do
I feel like the piñata
Won't you take a swing at me
If you could just crack the shell open
I think inside you would find something sweet
Well I hear you like a hunter now
Your footsteps in the leaves
And I would gladly leave my hiding place
Yes I'm hoping to be seen
So let your arrow fly and sing
I'm well within your aim
Lay your traps for a thousand miles
And please don't let me escape
Winter came to Omaha
It left us looking like a bride
A million perfect snowflakes now
And no two are alike
So it's hard for me imagining
The flaws in this design
I know debris, it covers everything
And still I am in love with this life
Jem – Flying High
You can't know, oh no
you can't know
how much I think about you, no
It's making my head spin
Looking at you
and you are looking at me
and we both know what we want
hmmm, so close to giving in
Feel so nice
oh yeah you feel so nice
wish I could spend the night
but I can't pay the price
oh no, no
But I'm flying so high
high off the ground
when you're around
And I can feel your high
rocking me inside
it's too much to hide
I know, oh yes
I know that we can't
be together
but, I just like to dream
It's so strange
the way our paths have crossed
how we were brought together
hmmm, it's written in the stars it seems
Feel so nice
oh yeah you feel so nice
I'd love to spend the night
but I can't pay the price
oh no, no
And I'm flying so high
high off the ground
when you're around
And I can feel your high
touching me inside
and it's too much to hide
Back to earth
where did you take me to
I know there's no such thing
As painless love
well it'll catch us up
and we can never win
But ohhh
I feel so alive
ohhh
Just wanna hold you
hold you so tight
And I'm flying so high
high off the ground
when you're around
And I can feel your high
touching me inside
and it's too much to hide
And I'm flying so high
high off the ground
when you're around
Howie Day – Brace Yourself
So you think
You can hold the world up by a string
With all that you have
And I would hold every part of you I could, hold
And I'm on...
And I'm on again
Brace yourself
With all that you have
And oh, I'm in love again
Brace yourself
Now...
So you feel anything and everything could be
All that you wanted
Stay with me
I'm in no condition to be
Alone
And I'm on...
And I'm on again
Brace yourself
With all that you have
And oh, I'm in love again
Brace yourself
Now...
On and on
So to your false alarm
Maybe I'll hold my breathe
And you'll be gone
With all that you have...
And all that you wanted...
With all that you have….
And all that you wanted…
So you think
You can hold the world up by a string
With all that you have
And I would hold every part of you that I could, hold
And I'm on...
And I'm on again
Brace yourself
With all that you have
And oh, I'm in love again
Brace yourself
Now...
Brace…. On and on
Brace… now…
Brace, with all that you have
Brace… now…
Katie Melua – Just Like Heaven
Show me how you do that trick
The one that makes me scream he said
The one that makes me laugh he said
And threw his arms around my neck
Show me how you do it
And I promise you I promise that
I'll run away with you
I'll run away with you
Spinning on that dizzy edge
I kissed his face and kissed his head
And dreamed of all the different ways I had
To make him glow
Why are you so far away? he said
Why won't you ever know that I'm in love with you
That I'm in love with you
You, soft and only
You, lost and lonely
You, strange as angels
Dancing in the deepest oceans
Twisting in the water
You're just like a dream
You're just like a dream
Daylight licked me into shape
I must have been asleep for days
And moving lips to breathe his name
I opened up my eyes
And found myself alone alone
Alone above a raging sea
That stole the only boy I loved
And drowned him deep inside of me
You, soft and only
You, lost and lonely
You, just like heaven
You, soft and only
You, lost and lonely
You, just like heaven
Ryan Adams – Magnolia Mountain
I want to go to Magnolia Mountain
And lay my weary head down
Down on the rocks
On the mountain my saviour made
Steady my soul and ease my worry
Hold me when I rattle like a hummingbird hummin'
Tie me to the rocks on the mountain my saviour made
Lie to me
Sing me a song
Sing me a song until the morning comes
If the morning comes, will you lie to me
Will you take me to your bed
Will you lay me down
Till I'm heavy like the rocks on the riverbed
That my saviour made
I want to be the bluebird singing
Singing to the roses in her yard
The roses in her yard her father grew for her
It's been raining that Tennessee honey
So long I got too heavy to fly
Ain't no bluebird ever gets too heavy to sing
Lie to me
Sing me a song
Sing me a song until the morning comes
And if the morning don't come, will you lie to me
Will you take me to your bed
Will you lay me down
Till I'm heavy like the rocks in the riverbed
That my saviour made
We burned the cotton fields down in the valley
And ended up with nothing but scars
The scars became the lessons that we gave to our children after the war
But there ain't nothing but the truth up on the Magnolia Mountain
Where nobody ever dies
Steady your soul and ease your worry
They got a room for you
Lie to me like I lie to you
Calm me down until the morning comes
And if the morning don't come
Lie to me
Will you take me to your bed
Will you lay me down
All heavy like the rocks in the riverbed
That my saviour made
For us
Death Cab for Cutie – I will follow you into the dark
Love of mine some day you will die
But I'll be close behind
I'll follow you into the dark
No blinding light or tunnels to gates of white
Just our hands clasped so tight
Waiting for the hint of a spark
If heaven and hell decide
That they both are satisfied
Illuminate the no's on their vacancy signs
If there's no one beside you
When your soul embarks
Then I'll follow you into the dark
In Catholic school as vicious as Roman rule
I got my knuckles bruised by a lady in black
And I held my tongue as she told me
"Son fear is the heart of love"
So I never went back
If heaven and hell decide
That they both are satisfied
Illuminate the no's on their vacancy signs
If there's no one beside you
When your soul embarks
Then I'll follow you into the dark
You and me have seen everything to see
From Bangkok to Calgary
And the soles of your shoes are all worn down
The time for sleep is now
It's nothing to cry about
Cause we'll hold each other soon
The blackest of rooms
If heaven and hell decide
That they both are satisfied
Illuminate the no's on their vacancy signs
If there's no one beside you
When your soul embarks
Then I'll follow you into the dark
Then I'll follow you into the dark
Ivy - Edge Of The Ocean Lyrics
There's a place I dream about
Where the sun never goes out.
And the sky is deep and blue.
Won't you take me there with you.
Ohhh, we can begin again.
Shed our skin, let the sun shine in.
At the edge of the ocean
We can start over again.
There's a world I've always known
Somewhere far away from home.
When I close my eyes I see
All the space and mystery.
Ohhh, we can begin again.
Shed our skin, let the sun shine in.
At the edge of the ocean
We can start over again
Adam Green – We’re Not Supposed to Be Lovers
Picture a place that's far from danger;
A nicer place to cash your chips.
I'm not the one holding you hostage
Squeezed in between my lips.
We're not supposed to be lovers,
Or friends like they’d have us believe.
We're not supposed to know each other;
Accept my apology.
I was a babe stuck in a tree branch,
Banging on my rusty cradle bars.
Until I stole your middle finger.
Now who's the one in charge?
We're not supposed to be lovers,
Or friends like they’d have us believe.
We're not supposed to know each other;
Accept my apology.
Vein underground,
Fist,
Face
Down
Ooze as they heal my pain.
Food on the flight,
Breakfast bite
Drop from the orange juice crane.
Picture a person you've forgotten
Kissing your brother or your friend.
Picture a wounded entertainer
Cutting his hair again.
Tori Amos – Sleeps with Butterflies
airplanes
take you away again
are you flying above where we live
then i look up, a glare in my eyes
are you having regrets about last night
i'm not, but i like rivers that
rush in
so then i dove in
is there trouble ahead for you, the acrobat
i won't push you, unless you have a net
you say the word you know i will find you
or if you need some time i don't mind
i don't hold on to the tail of your kite
i'm not like the girls that you've known
but i believe i'm worth coming home to
kiss away night
this girl only sleeps with butterflies
with butterflies
so go on and fly then, boy
balloons look good from on the ground
i fear with pins and needles around
we may fall then stumble upon a carousel
it could take us anywhere
you say the word you know i will find you
or if you need some time i don't mind
i don't hold on to the tail of your kite
i'm not like the girls that you've known
but i believe i'm worth coming home to
kiss her, waiting by this girl
this girl
you say the word you know i will find you
or if you need some time i don't mind
i don't hold onto the tail of your kite
i'm not like the girls that you've known
but i believe i'm worth coming home to
kiss away night
this girl only sleeps with butterflies
with butterflies
with butterflies
so go on and fly boy
Babybird – If You’ll Be Mine
If you’ll be mine, I’ll be yours,
If you’ll be mine, I’ll be yours.
If you’ll be mine, I’ll be yours,
If you’ll be mine, I’ll be yours.
I tick like a bomb,
a little bomb with feelings
in every single country,
under every ceiling.
There’s no feeling, there’s no feeling at all
There’s no feeling, there’s no feeling at all
If you’ll be mine, I’ll be yours,
If you’ll be mine, I’ll be yours.
If you’ll be mine, I’ll be yours,
If you’ll be mine, I’ll be yours.
Sha la la la
Sha la la la
Sha la la la la la la
Sha la la la
Sha la la la
Sha la la la la la la
I’m built like a house
A little house that’s peeling
As it peels away then you’ll see
There’s no feeling, there’s no feeling at all
There’s no feeling, there’s no feeling at all
If you’ll be mine, I’ll be yours,
If you’ll be mine, I’ll be yours.
If you’ll be mine, I’ll be yours,
If you’ll be mine, I’ll be yours.
Sha la la la
Sha la la la
Sha la la la la la la
Sha la la la
Sha la la la
Sha la la la la la la
I burn like a tree at the end of the garden.
We’ve put up a swing for the children.
There’s no feeling there’s no feeling at all.
With the world on TV she’s she’s given up believing
There’s nothing left to see,
I was teasing.
I was teasing, I was teasing her on
I was teasing, I was teasing her on
If you’ll be mine, I’ll be yours,
If you’ll be mine, I’ll be yours.
If you’ll be mine, I’ll be yours,
If you’ll be mine, I’ll be yours.
Sha la la la
Sha la la la
Sha la la la la la la
Rascal Flatts – Bless the Broken Road
I set out on a narrow way, many years ago
Hoping I would find true love, along the broken road
But I got lost a time or two
Wiped my brow and kept pushing through
I couldn't see how every sign, pointed straight to you
Every long lost dream lead me to where you are
Others who broke my heart, they were like northern stars
Pointing me on my way, into your loving arms
This much I know is true
That God blessed the broken road
That lead me straight to you
I think about the years I spent, just passing through
I'd like to have the time I lost, and give it back to you
But you just smile and take my hand
You've been there you understand
It's all part of a grander plan, that is coming true
Every long lost dream, lead me to where you are
Others who broke my heart, they were like northern stars
Pointing me on my way, into your loving arms
This much I know is true
That God blessed the broken road
That lead me straight to you
Now I'm just rolling home
Into my lovers arms
This much I know, is true
That God blessed the broken road
That lead me straight to you
That God blessed the broken road
That lead me straight
to you
Sarah Blasko – Perfect Now
Everything is perfect now
I dont want to make a movement
I'm too scared to breathe; I might do something wrong
As you're sleeping silently
Perfect beauty laid before me
I feel every second is a life time long
Here's a place I've been before
A place some say I should go more
But every journey just leads me so far away
When I just wanted to stay
So that's why I wont wake you where you lie
If I could now I'd freeze time
I cant find forever in your eyes
I should leave you while they're dry
Living underneath this guilt
I cant leave a house that I have built
Though I feel it sinking further everytime
And the weight of my mistakes
Means that everything I touch breaks
I dont want to see you as the next in line
So that's why I wont wake you where you lie
If I could now I'd freeze time
I cant find forever in your eyes
I should leave you while they're dry
Snow Patrol – Make Love to Me Forever
It took half the time
I am still afraid
So stay by my side
And hold on to my hand
Try to teach me that
I'm alright I guess
But there's so much wrong
But there's so much right
I guess we'll agree
To differ on one thing
Jack Johnson – Better Together
There is no combination of words
I could put on the back of a postcard
And no song that I could sing, but I can try for your heart
Our dreams, and they are made out of real things
Like a shoebox of photographs with sepia tone loving
Love is the answer
At least for most of the questions in my heart
Why are we here and where do we go
And how come it's so hard
It's not always easy and sometimes life can be deceiving
I'll tell you one thing
It's always better when we're together
Mmm, it's always better when we're together
Yeah, we'll look at the stars when we're together
Well, it's always better when we're together
Yeah, it's always better when we're together
And all of these moments just might find a way into my dreams tonight
But I know that they'll be gone when the morning light sings
Or brings new things for tomorrow night you see
That they'll be gone too, too many things I have to do
But if all of these dreams might find their way into my day to day scene
I'd be under the impression I was somewhere in between
With only two, just me and you, not so many things we got to do
Or places we got to be, we'll sit beneath the mango tree now
Yeah, it's always better when we're together
Mmm, we're somewhere in between together
Well, it's always better when we're together
Yeah, it's always better when we're together (mmm)
I believe in memories, they look so, so pretty when I sleep
And when I wake up, you look so pretty sleeping next to me
But there is not enough time
And there is no, no song I could sing
And there is no combination of words I could say
But I will still tell you one thing
We're better together
Drugstore – I don’t wanna be here without you
There was a time when we were young and true
We used to have so many points of view
We used to lie on the ground, kiss in the rain
The world outside kept looking in
You’ve got a job you said it was for me
But somehow things turned out so differently
We never lie on the ground or kiss in the rain
I don’t wanna stay another day
I don’t wanna be here without you another day
The kitchen clock is hitting half past three
Outside the world is looking happy
Funny how it can change, sunshine to rain
I don’t wanna spend another day
I don’t wanna be here without you another day
There was a time when we were young and true
We never do the things we used to do
Funny how it can change, love into pain
I don’t wanna spend another day
I don’t wanna be here without you another day
Morrissey – Everyday is Like Sunday
Trudging slowly over wet sand
Back to the bench where your clothes were stolen
This is the coastal town
That they forgot to close down
Armageddon - come Armageddon!
Come, Armageddon! Come!
Everyday is like Sunday
Everyday is silent and grey
Hide on the promenade
Etch a postcard :
"How I Dearly Wish I Was Not Here"
In the seaside town
...that they forgot to bomb
Come, Come, Come - nuclear bomb
Everyday is like Sunday
Everyday is silent and grey
Trudging back over pebbles and sand
And a strange dust lands on your hands
(And on your face...)
(On your face ...)
(On your face ...)
(On your face ...)
Everyday is like Sunday
"Win Yourself A Cheap Tray"
Share some greased tea with me
Everyday is silent and grey
Elliot Smith – Pretty (Ugly Before)
sunshine
been keeping me up for days
there is no nighttime
it's only a passing phase
and i feel pretty
pretty enough for you
i felt so ugly before
i didn't know what to do
sometimes is all i feel up to now
but it's not worth it to you
cos you gotta get high somehow
is it destruction
that you're required to feel?
like somebody wants you
someone that's more for real
sunshine
been keeping me up for days
there is no nighttime
only a passing phase
and i'll feel pretty
another hour or two
i felt so ugly before
i didn't know what to do
ugly before
Johnny Cash – Hurt
I hurt myself today
to see if I still feel
I focus on the pain
the only thing that's real
the needle tears a hole
the old familiar sting
try to kill it all away
but I remember everything
what have I become?
my sweetest friend
everyone I know
goes away in the end
and you could have it all

full of broken thoughts
I cannot repair

I am still right here
what have I become?
my sweetest friend
everyone I know
goes away in the end
and you could have it all
my empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you hurt
if I could start again
a million miles away
I would keep myself
I would find a way
Tom McRae – Still Lost
So my love I
Left this world for a while
For a while
I float through strange days
Search the one way to
Bring me back to you
So don't let me go
Don't let me go
Don't let me go
From here
'Cos I'll be still lost
I'll be still lost
I'll be still lost
I'll be still lost
When you come
When will you come
To look for me
If I was to
Call you
Would you come
And if I was to
Call you
Would you come
Oh my love
When will you come to look for me
'Cos I'll be still lost
I'll be still lost
I'll be still lost
I'll be still lost
When you come
Why don't you come
To look for me?

You, strange as angels
Dancing in the deepest oceans
Twisting in the water
You're just like a dream
You're just like a dream
Daylight licked me into shape
I must have been asleep for days
And moving lips to breathe his name
I opened up my eyes
And found myself alone alone
Alone above a raging sea
That stole the only boy I loved
And drowned him deep inside of me
You, soft and only
You, lost and lonely
You, just like heaven
You, soft and only
You, lost and lonely
You, just like heaven
Ryan Adams – Magnolia Mountain
I want to go to Magnolia Mountain
And lay my weary head down
Down on the rocks
On the mountain my saviour made
Steady my soul and ease my worry
Hold me when I rattle like a hummingbird hummin'
Tie me to the rocks on the mountain my saviour made
Lie to me
Sing me a song
Sing me a song until the morning comes
If the morning comes, will you lie to me
Will you take me to your bed
Will you lay me down
Till I'm heavy like the rocks on the riverbed
That my saviour made
I want to be the bluebird singing
Singing to the roses in her yard
The roses in her yard her father grew for her
It's been raining that Tennessee honey
So long I got too heavy to fly
Ain't no bluebird ever gets too heavy to sing
Lie to me
Sing me a song
Sing me a song until the morning comes
And if the morning don't come, will you lie to me
Will you take me to your bed
Will you lay me down
Till I'm heavy like the rocks in the riverbed
That my saviour made
We burned the cotton fields down in the valley
And ended up with nothing but scars
The scars became the lessons that we gave to our children after the war
But there ain't nothing but the truth up on the Magnolia Mountain
Where nobody ever dies
Steady your soul and ease your worry
They got a room for you
Lie to me like I lie to you
Calm me down until the morning comes
And if the morning don't come
Lie to me
Will you take me to your bed
Will you lay me down
All heavy like the rocks in the riverbed
That my saviour made
For us
Death Cab for Cutie – I will follow you into the dark
Love of mine some day you will die
But I'll be close behind
I'll follow you into the dark
No blinding light or tunnels to gates of white
Just our hands clasped so tight
Waiting for the hint of a spark
If heaven and hell decide
That they both are satisfied
Illuminate the no's on their vacancy signs
If there's no one beside you
When your soul embarks
Then I'll follow you into the dark
In Catholic school as vicious as Roman rule
I got my knuckles bruised by a lady in black
And I held my tongue as she told me
"Son fear is the heart of love"
So I never went back
If heaven and hell decide
That they both are satisfied
Illuminate the no's on their vacancy signs
If there's no one beside you
When your soul embarks
Then I'll follow you into the dark
You and me have seen everything to see
From Bangkok to Calgary
And the soles of your shoes are all worn down
The time for sleep is now
It's nothing to cry about
Cause we'll hold each other soon
The blackest of rooms
If heaven and hell decide
That they both are satisfied
Illuminate the no's on their vacancy signs
If there's no one beside you
When your soul embarks
Then I'll follow you into the dark
Then I'll follow you into the dark
Ivy - Edge Of The Ocean Lyrics
There's a place I dream about
Where the sun never goes out.
And the sky is deep and blue.
Won't you take me there with you.
Ohhh, we can begin again.
Shed our skin, let the sun shine in.
At the edge of the ocean
We can start over again.
There's a world I've always known
Somewhere far away from home.
When I close my eyes I see
All the space and mystery.
Ohhh, we can begin again.
Shed our skin, let the sun shine in.
At the edge of the ocean
We can start over again
Adam Green – We’re Not Supposed to Be Lovers
Picture a place that's far from danger;
A nicer place to cash your chips.
I'm not the one holding you hostage
Squeezed in between my lips.
We're not supposed to be lovers,
Or friends like they’d have us believe.
We're not supposed to know each other;
Accept my apology.
I was a babe stuck in a tree branch,
Banging on my rusty cradle bars.
Until I stole your middle finger.
Now who's the one in charge?
We're not supposed to be lovers,
Or friends like they’d have us believe.
We're not supposed to know each other;
Accept my apology.
Vein underground,
Fist,
Face
Down
Ooze as they heal my pain.
Food on the flight,
Breakfast bite
Drop from the orange juice crane.
Picture a person you've forgotten
Kissing your brother or your friend.
Picture a wounded entertainer
Cutting his hair again.
Tori Amos – Sleeps with Butterflies
airplanes
take you away again
are you flying above where we live
then i look up, a glare in my eyes
are you having regrets about last night
i'm not, but i like rivers that
rush in
so then i dove in
is there trouble ahead for you, the acrobat
i won't push you, unless you have a net
you say the word you know i will find you
or if you need some time i don't mind
i don't hold on to the tail of your kite
i'm not like the girls that you've known
but i believe i'm worth coming home to
kiss away night
this girl only sleeps with butterflies
with butterflies
so go on and fly then, boy
balloons look good from on the ground
i fear with pins and needles around
we may fall then stumble upon a carousel
it could take us anywhere
you say the word you know i will find you
or if you need some time i don't mind
i don't hold on to the tail of your kite
i'm not like the girls that you've known
but i believe i'm worth coming home to
kiss her, waiting by this girl
this girl
you say the word you know i will find you
or if you need some time i don't mind
i don't hold onto the tail of your kite
i'm not like the girls that you've known
but i believe i'm worth coming home to
kiss away night
this girl only sleeps with butterflies
with butterflies
with butterflies
so go on and fly boy
Babybird – If You’ll Be Mine
If you’ll be mine, I’ll be yours,
If you’ll be mine, I’ll be yours.
If you’ll be mine, I’ll be yours,
If you’ll be mine, I’ll be yours.
I tick like a bomb,
a little bomb with feelings
in every single country,
under every ceiling.
There’s no feeling, there’s no feeling at all
There’s no feeling, there’s no feeling at all
If you’ll be mine, I’ll be yours,
If you’ll be mine, I’ll be yours.
If you’ll be mine, I’ll be yours,
If you’ll be mine, I’ll be yours.
Sha la la la
Sha la la la
Sha la la la la la la
Sha la la la
Sha la la la
Sha la la la la la la
I’m built like a house
A little house that’s peeling
As it peels away then you’ll see
There’s no feeling, there’s no feeling at all
There’s no feeling, there’s no feeling at all
If you’ll be mine, I’ll be yours,
If you’ll be mine, I’ll be yours.
If you’ll be mine, I’ll be yours,
If you’ll be mine, I’ll be yours.
Sha la la la
Sha la la la
Sha la la la la la la
Sha la la la
Sha la la la
Sha la la la la la la
I burn like a tree at the end of the garden.
We’ve put up a swing for the children.
There’s no feeling there’s no feeling at all.
With the world on TV she’s she’s given up believing
There’s nothing left to see,
I was teasing.
I was teasing, I was teasing her on
I was teasing, I was teasing her on
If you’ll be mine, I’ll be yours,
If you’ll be mine, I’ll be yours.
If you’ll be mine, I’ll be yours,
If you’ll be mine, I’ll be yours.
Sha la la la

Rascal Flatts – Bless the Broken Road
I set out on a narrow way, many years ago
Hoping I would find true love, along the broken road
But I got lost a time or two
Wiped my brow and kept pushing through
I couldn't see how every sign, pointed straight to you
Every long lost dream lead me to where you are
Others who broke my heart, they were like northern stars
Pointing me on my way, into your loving arms
This much I know is true
That God blessed the broken road
That lead me straight to you
I think about the years I spent, just passing through
I'd like to have the time I lost, and give it back to you
But you just smile and take my hand
You've been there you understand
It's all part of a grander plan, that is coming true
Every long lost dream, lead me to where you are
Others who broke my heart, they were like northern stars
Pointing me on my way, into your loving arms
This much I know is true
That God blessed the broken road
That lead me straight to you
Now I'm just rolling home
Into my lovers arms
This much I know, is true
That God blessed the broken road
That lead me straight to you
That God blessed the broken road
That lead me straight
to you
Sarah Blasko – Perfect Now
Everything is perfect now
I dont want to make a movement
I'm too scared to breathe; I might do something wrong
As you're sleeping silently
Perfect beauty laid before me
I feel every second is a life time long
Here's a place I've been before
A place some say I should go more
But every journey just leads me so far away
When I just wanted to stay
So that's why I wont wake you where you lie
If I could now I'd freeze time
I cant find forever in your eyes
I should leave you while they're dry
Living underneath this guilt
I cant leave a house that I have built
Though I feel it sinking further everytime
And the weight of my mistakes
Means that everything I touch breaks
I dont want to see you as the next in line
So that's why I wont wake you where you lie
If I could now I'd freeze time
I cant find forever in your eyes
I should leave you while they're dry
Snow Patrol – Make Love to Me Forever
It took half the time
I am still afraid
So stay by my side
And hold on to my hand
Try to teach me that
I'm alright I guess
But there's so much wrong
But there's so much right
I guess we'll agree
To differ on one thing
Jack Johnson – Better Together
There is no combination of words
I could put on the back of a postcard
And no song that I could sing, but I can try for your heart
Our dreams, and they are made out of real things
Like a shoebox of photographs with sepia tone loving
Love is the answer
At least for most of the questions in my heart
Why are we here and where do we go
And how come it's so hard
It's not always easy and sometimes life can be deceiving
I'll tell you one thing
It's always better when we're together
Mmm, it's always better when we're together
Yeah, we'll look at the stars when we're together
Well, it's always better when we're together
Yeah, it's always better when we're together
And all of these moments just might find a way into my dreams tonight
But I know that they'll be gone when the morning light sings
Or brings new things for tomorrow night you see
That they'll be gone too, too many things I have to do
But if all of these dreams might find their way into my day to day scene
I'd be under the impression I was somewhere in between
With only two, just me and you, not so many things we got to do
Or places we got to be, we'll sit beneath the mango tree now
Yeah, it's always better when we're together
Mmm, we're somewhere in between together
Well, it's always better when we're together
Yeah, it's always better when we're together (mmm)
I believe in memories, they look so, so pretty when I sleep
And when I wake up, you look so pretty sleeping next to me
But there is not enough time
And there is no, no song I could sing
And there is no combination of words I could say
But I will still tell you one thing
We're better together
Drugstore – I don’t wanna be here without you
There was a time when we were young and true
We used to have so many points of view
We used to lie on the ground, kiss in the rain
The world outside kept looking in
You’ve got a job you said it was for me
But somehow things turned out so differently
We never lie on the ground or kiss in the rain
I don’t wanna stay another day
I don’t wanna be here without you another day
The kitchen clock is hitting half past three
Outside the world is looking happy
Funny how it can change, sunshine to rain
I don’t wanna spend another day
I don’t wanna be here without you another day
There was a time when we were young and true
We never do the things we used to do
Funny how it can change, love into pain
I don’t wanna spend another day
I don’t wanna be here without you another day
Morrissey – Everyday is Like Sunday
Trudging slowly over wet sand
Back to the bench where your clothes were stolen
This is the coastal town
That they forgot to close down
Armageddon - come Armageddon!
Come, Armageddon! Come!
Everyday is like Sunday
Everyday is silent and grey
Hide on the promenade
Etch a postcard :
"How I Dearly Wish I Was Not Here"
In the seaside town
...that they forgot to bomb
Come, Come, Come - nuclear bomb
Everyday is like Sunday
Everyday is silent and grey
Trudging back over pebbles and sand
And a strange dust lands on your hands
(And on your face...)
(On your face ...)
(On your face ...)
(On your face ...)
Everyday is like Sunday
"Win Yourself A Cheap Tray"
Share some greased tea with me
Everyday is silent and grey
Elliot Smith – Pretty (Ugly Before)
sunshine
been keeping me up for days
there is no nighttime
it's only a passing phase
and i feel pretty
pretty enough for you
i felt so ugly before
i didn't know what to do
sometimes is all i feel up to now
but it's not worth it to you
cos you gotta get high somehow
is it destruction
that you're required to feel?
like somebody wants you
someone that's more for real
sunshine
been keeping me up for days
there is no nighttime
only a passing phase
and i'll feel pretty
another hour or two
i felt so ugly before
i didn't know what to do
ugly before
