Let Love In - Goo Goo Dolls
Album - Let Love In (2006)

You wait, wanting this world
To let you in
And you stand there
A frozen light
In dark and empty streets
You smile hiding behind
A God-given face
But I know you're so much more
Everything they ignore
Is all that I need to see

You're the only one I ever believed in
The answer that could never be found
The moment you decided to let love in
Now I'm banging on the door of an angel
The end of fear is where we begin
The moment we decided to let love in

I wish
Wishing for you to find your way
And I'll hold on for all you need
That's all we need to say
I'll take my chances while
You take your time with
This game you play
But I can't control your soul
You need to let me know
You leaving or you gonna stay

You're the only one I ever believed in
The answer that could never be found
The moment you decided to let love in
Now I'm banging on the door of an angel
The end of fear is where we begin
The moment we decided to let love in

There's nothing we can do about
The things we have to do without
The only way to feel again
Is let love in

There's nothing we can do about
The things we'd have to live without
The only way to see again
Is let love in

You're the only one I ever believed in
The answer that could never be found
The moment you decided to let love in
Now I'm banging on the door of an angel
The end of fear is where we begin
The moment we decided to let love in

The White Hare - Seth Lakeman
Album - Freedom Fields

I heard her in the valley,
I heard her in the dead of night.
The warning of a white hare,
Her eyes burning bright.

Careful you don`t catch her,
Or give her right of way,
For she will look upon you,
Steal your soul away.

For the white hare is calling,
She's dancing in the night.
She'll be out `til the morning,
With her eyes burning bright.
The white hare is calling you.

Out upon the heather,
A shadow came onto me.
Her hair was hanging over,
Her face I could not see.

She ran behind the rocks,
I heard the hounds cry,
The image of a woman,
Her head she held up high.

For the white hare is calling,
She's dancing in the night.
She'll be out `til the morning,
With her eyes burning bright.
The white hare is calling you.

If you go hunting,
Calling out your prey,
If you see a fair maid,
Her hair an ashen grey,

Careful you don`t catch her,
Or give her right of way,
For she will look upon you,
Steal your soul away.

For the white hare is calling,
She's dancing in the night.
She'll be out `til the morning,
With her eyes burning bright.
The white hare is calling you.

Calling out your name.
I hear her coming out,
She's calling out your name.

Right Here - Edwin
Album - Better Days


There's cigarette sunset
Going down on her town
She looks out the window
Sky is red, snow has turned to brown
No one seems to know
About the girl on the 15th floor
This close to letting go

She thinks she's all alone
Her heart has turned to stone
She don't know that I'm right here
No one understands
No one takes her hand
She don't know that I'm right here

Public transportation
It gets her where she needs to be
I'm running for the bus stop
But the doors close and pull away
Her sad eyes don't see me
No one seems to know
About the girl in the 15th row
This close to letting go

She thinks she's all alone
Her heart has turned to stone
She don't know that I'm right here
And no one understands
No one gives a damn
She don't know that I'm right here

She don't seem to know,
In this ugly world someone thinks she's beautiful, (beautiful)

She thinks she's all alone
Her heart has turned to stone
She don't know that I'm right, I'm right here
And no one understands
No one takes her hand
She don't know that I'm right here

She thinks she's all alone
Her heart has turned to stone
She don't know that I'm right here
She don't know that I'm right here
She don't know that I'm right here

12:59 Lullaby - Bedouin Soundclash
Album - Street Gospels (up coming release)


It’s silent in early morning,
The only sound is my breathing
As I lay awake not knowing,
Where it will be I’m going

But I know,
Time will slow,
At 12:59,
I sing lullaby

And if you want me to sing, you a song,
I know,
That there’s a 12:59 Lullaby,
Tonight



I'll see the next hour through,
It falls to the next so soon,
While my guitar waits for a tune,
Where are the songs played gone to?

And I know,
Time will slow,
At 12:59,
I sing lullaby

And if you want me to sing, you a song,
I know,
That there’s a 12:59 Lullaby,
Tonight



And if you want me to sing, you a song,
I know,
That there’s a 12:59 Lullaby,
Tonight


Aoooooooooooaye, Aoooooooaye, AooooooooooooOOOOOOOOO

So just say



You can listen to it here...

In View - The Tragically Hip
Album - World Container

I love you
You know I do
Yea, it's perfect
Well, it isn't and it is

I've been meaning to call you
I've been meaning to call you
Then I do
I've been meaning to call you
I've been meaning to call you
Then I do

Phone rings once
Phone rings twice
Phone rings three times

I, I am of you
And you are in everything I do
I do

I trust you, that makes you true
I don't care if it isn't the way it is

I've been meaning to call you
I've been meaning to call you
Then I do

Phone rings once
Phone rings twice
Phone rings three times

I, I am of you
You are always in view
Yea, I am my will
You are in everything I do
I do
I do
I do

In the Day Eraser's dark of night
In the Excited States, gone in plain sight
Under the wave or by cavelight
I lose, things change, but never in your eyes

I am of you
You are always in view
I, I am my will
You are in everything I do

The Saints are Coming - U2 & Greenday
(Promo Studio Version)

[BJ]
There is a house in New Orleans
They call the Rising Sun
It's been the ruin
Of many a poor boy
And God I know I'm one

[Bono]
I cried to my daddy on the telephone
How long now
Until the clouds unroll and you come down
The line went
But the shadows still remain since your descent
Your descent

[BJ]
I cried to my daddy on the telephone
How long now
Until the clouds unroll and you come home
The line went
But the shadows still remain since your descent
Your descent

[?Bono]
Boom Cha Hey!

[Both]
The saints are coming
The saints are coming
I say no matter how I try
I realise there's no reply
The saints are coming
The saints are coming
I say no matter how I try
I realise there's no reply

[Backing (?Edge)]
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh

[Bono]
A drowning sorrow floods the deepest grief
How long now
Until a weather change condemns belief
How long now
When the night watchman lets in the thief
What's wrong now

[?Bono]
Boom Cha Hey!

[Both]
The saints are coming
The saints are coming
I say no matter how I try
I realise there's no reply
The saints are coming
The saints are coming
I say no matter how I try
I realise there's no reply
I say no matter how I try
I realise there's no reply
I say no matter how I try
I realise there's no reply

Happy Baby - Shaye
Album - The Bridge


Standing in line at the grocery store
Reading magazines that say i should want more
There's an old boyfriend, he looks my way
I can't help but smile, I feel great today
Last night's clothes, no make-up, drinking my coffee from a paper cup

If this is it for me baby, that's just fine, I'm not looking anymore
For what will make me happy baby, that's just fine, I'm not looking anymore
Anymore

So many places I'll never see
But here and now is where I'd rather be
Too many people searching so hard
But they never look right in their backyard
I've made mistakes, that's for sure, ain't that what your life is for?

If this is it for me baby, that's just fine, I'm not looking anymore
For what will make me happy baby, that's just fine, I'm not looking anymore

(More clothes, more cash, more things, more rings)
These lines upon my face, I'd be a fool to erase cause they show my place in this world

If this is it for me baby, that's just fine, I'm not looking anymore
For what will make me happy baby, that's just fine, I'm not looking anymore
If this is it for me baby, that's just fine, I'm not looking anymore
For what will make me happy baby, that's just fine, I'm not looking anymore

Face Down - The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus
Album - Don't You Fake It


Hey girl, you know you drive me crazy.
One look puts the rhythm in my head.
Still I'll never understand why you hang around.
I see what's going down.

Cover up with makeup in the mirror,
Tell yourself it's never gonna happen again.
You cry alone and then he swears he loves you

Do you feel like a man when you push her around?
Do you feel better now--she falls to the ground.
Well, I'll tell you my friend, one day this world's going to end
As your lies crumble down, a new life she has found.

A pebble in the water makes a ripple effect;
Every action in this world will bear a consequence.
If you wait around forever you will surely drown.
I see what's going down.

I see the way you go and say you're right again,
Say your right again
Heed my lecture

Do you feel like a man when you push her around?
Do you feel better now? She falls to the ground.
Well, I'll tell you my friend, one day this world's going to end
As your lies crumble down, a new life she has found.

Face down in the dirt she said "this doesn't hurt"
She said "I've finally had enough"

Face down in the dirt she said "this doesn't hurt"
She said "I've finally had enough"

One day she will tell you that she has had enough.
It's coming round again.

Do you feel like a man when you push her around?
Do you feel better now? She falls to the ground.
Well, I'll tell you my friend, one day this world's going to end
As your lies crumble down, a new life she has found.

Do you feel like a man when you push her around?
Do you feel better now? She falls to the ground.
Well, I'll tell you my friend, one day this world's going to end
As your lies crumble down, a new life she has found.

Face down in the dirt she said "this doesn't hurt"
She said "I've finally had enough"

How To Save A Life - The Fray
Album - How To Save A Life


Step one you say we need to talk
He walks you say sit down it's just a talk
He smiles politely back at you
You stare politely right on through
Some sort of window to your right
As he goes left and you stay right
Between the lines of fear and blame
And you begin to wonder why you came

Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life

Let him know that you know best
Cause after all you do know best
Try to slip past his defense
Without granting innocence
Lay down a list of what is wrong
The things you've told him all along
And pray to God he hears you
And pray to God he hears you

Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life

As he begins to raise his voice
You lower yours and grant him one last choice
Drive until you lose the road
Or break with the ones you've followed
He will do one of two things
He will admit to everything
Or he'll say he's just not the same
And you'll begin to wonder why you came

Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life

Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life

How to save a life
How to save a life

Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life

Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life

How to save a life

My dingaling-Chuck Berry....

Sing this one with me, Everybody sing this one, I wanna hear everybody join in)

When I was a little bitty boy
My Grandmother bought me a cute little toy
Silver bells hanging on a string
She said it was my Ding a ling a ling

Oh my ding a ling, Everybody sing
I wanna play with my ding a ling a ling
Oh my ding a ling, my ding a ling
I wanna play with my ding a ling a ling

(I forgot to tell you it’s a little jerk, Right there, A little jerk in it, Right there, Can’t do without that jerk, Yeah)

When I started Grammar School
I used to stop off in the vestibule
Every time that bell would ring
I’d take out my ding a ling a ling

Oh my ding a ling, Everybody sing
I wanna play with my ding a ling a ling
My ding a ling, my ding a ling
I wanna play with my ding a ling a ling

(Here come that jerk again, Mmh, Does something good to ya)

Humpty dumpty on the wall
Humpty had an awful fall
When they went to tell the king
Caught him playing with his ding a ling

Oh my ding a ling, my ding a ling
Come on now everybody sing
My ding a ling, my ding a ling
I wanna play with my ding a ling

(Oh yeah, Got something to it)

I remember the girl next door
We used to play house on the kitchen floor
I’d be king, she’d be queen
Together we’d play with our ding a ling a ling

My ding a ling, Oh my
I wanna play with my ding a ling a ling

(Mmh)

When they took me to Sunday School
Tried to teach me the golden rule
But every time the quire would sing
Catch me playing with my ding a ling

Oh my ding a ling, my ding a ling
I wanna play with my ding a ling
My ding (That’s right), my ding a ling
I wanna play with my ding a ling a ling

(You know, I didn’t hear everybody singing, Everybody joins in on that course)

This here song, it ain’t to sad
Cutest little song you ever had
Those of you, who will not sing
You must be playing with your own ding a ling

Oh my ding a ling, my ding a lin (Come on now, Come on now, Everybody sing)
Now my ding a, oh my ding a
I wanna play with my ding a ling

(Oh yeah, Oh yeah, Oh yeah)

Here (In Your Arms) - Hellogoodbye
Album - Zombies! Aliens! Vampires! Dinosaurs!



I like,
Where we are,
When we drive,
In your car.
I like,
Where we are,
Here.

Cause our lips,
Can touch.
And our cheeks,
Can brush.
Our lips can touch,
Here.

Where you are the one, the one,
That lies close to me.
Whispers, "Hello,
I miss you quite terribly."
I fell in love, in love,
With you suddenly.
Now there's no place else,
I could be, but,
Here in your arms.

I like,
Where you sleep,
When you sleep,
Next to me.
I like,
Where you sleep,
Here.

Our lips,
Can touch.
And our cheeks,
Can brush.
Cause our lips can touch,
Here.

Where you are the one, the one,
That lies close to me.
Whispers, "Hello,
I miss you quite terribly."
I fell in love, in love,
With you suddenly.
Now there's no place else,
I could be, but,
Here in your arms.

Our lips can touch.
Our lips can touch,
Here.

You are the one, the one,
That lies close to me.
Whispers, "Hello,
I miss you quite terribly."
I fell in love, in love,
With you suddenly.
Now there's no place else,
I could be, but,
Here in your arms

You are the one, the one,
That lies close to me.
Whispers, "Hello,
I miss you quite, miss you quite..."
I fell in love, in love,
With you suddenly.
Now there's no place else,
I could be, but,
Here in your arms.

Here, here, here, here in your arms.
Oh, here in your... arms.

Rena - Blue Rodeo
Album - Are You Ready


I got my plans
From trembling hands
I knew just what to do
Follow each step carefully
And hope they pulled me through
My father ran
To different lands
And not a word we spoke
But I was here
To conquer fear
And bring some glory home

There’s a world of hate and sorrow
Out there standing in your way
There’s a load of compromise
Before you die
And each time you step forward you get burned a little bit
No longer know the way
To say goodbye
Now I’m down here underneath
Your bedroom light
Rena please come out
With me tonight

I look in through
The window
And I though I’d take
My chance
I taught myself to play
So I could be where people danced
No higher call
Than stars that fall
I waited patiently
A thousand miles of pavement
That became my destiny

You can wait a lonely lifetime
Wondering when it’s gonna come
You can while away the hours
Getting stoned
But one day you get lucky
And you look in someone’s eyes
That tell you you don’t
Have to be alone
Now I’m falling back
Just out of your sight
Rena please come out
With me tonight

Oh now I know the way things go
And what I put you through
Cause when they try to get to me
They get to me through you

I know it’s not the kind of hurt
That’s easily set right
And I know you got your reasons
To stay inside
But nothing ever happens
When it’s left out on it’s own
You locked in there with
Just your wounded pride
I’m down here and I’m
Way too tired to fight
Rena please come out
With me tonight
Rena please come out
With me tonight

Twenty Years - Placebo
Album - Once More With Feeling


There are twenty years to go
Twenty ways to know
Who will wear, who will wear the hat

There are twenty years to go
Best of all I hope
Enjoy the ride, the medicine show

Them's the breaks for we designer fakes
We need to concentrate on more than meets the eye

There are twenty years to go
We're faithful and alone
Best of sorts, the broken heart bestowed

There are twenty years to go
Punch drunk and we blow
The worse the start, the mercy parts the phone

Them's the breaks for we designer fakes
We need to concentrate on more than meets the eye
Them's the breaks for we designer fakes
But it's you I'll take 'cause you're the truth not I

There are twenty years to go
Golden age I know
But all will pass, and end too fast you know

There are twenty years to go
Many friends I hope
Though some may hold the rose, some hold the rope

That's the end and that's the start of it
That's the whole and that's the part of it
That's the high and that's the heart of it
That's the long and that's the short of it
That's the best and that's the test in it
That's the doubt to doubt the trust in it
That's the sight and that's the sound of it
That's the gift and that's the trick in it

You're the truth, not I
You're the truth, not I
You're the truth, not I
You're the truth, not I

Underneath Your Clothes - Shakira
Album - Laundry Service


You're a song
Written by the hands of God
Don't get me wrong 'cause
This might sound to you a bit odd
But you own the place
Where all my thoughts go hiding
Right under your clothes
Is where I'll find them

Underneath your clothes
There's an endless story
There's the man I chose
There's my territory
And all the things, I deserve
For being such a good girl honey.

'Cause of you
I forgot the smart ways to lie
Because of you
I'm running out of reasons to cry
When the friends are gone
When the party's over
We will still belong to each other

Underneath your clothes
There's an endless story
There's the man I chose
There's my territory
And all the things I deserve
For being such a good girl honey

Underneath your clothes
There's an endless story
There's the man I chose
That's my territory
And all the things I deserve
For being such a good girl
For being such a hey,hey,hey,hey

I love you more than all that's on the planet
Movin' talkin' walkin' breathing,
You know it's true
Oh baby it's so funny
You almost don't believe it
As every voice is hanging from the silence
lamps are hanging from the ceiling,
Like a lady tied to her manners
I'm tied up to this feeling.

Underneath your clothes
There's an endless story
There's the man I chose
That's my territory
And all the things I deserve
For being such a good girl honey.

Underneath your clothes, Ah wha ho oh woah!
There's the man I chose
That's my territory
And all the things I deserve
For being such a good girl
For being such a good girl.

Lips Of An Angel - Hinder
Album - Extreme Behavior (Parental Advisory)


Honey why you callin me so late
It's kinda hard to talk right now
Honey why you cryin
Is everything ok
I gotta whisper cause I can't be too loud

Well my girls in the next room
Sometimes I wish she was you
I guess we never really moved on

It's really good to hear your voice
Sayin my name
It sounds so sweet
Comin from the lips of an angel
Hearin those words
It makes me weak

And I
Never want to say goodbye
But girl you make it hard to be faithful
With the lips of an angel

It's funny that you're callin me tonight
And yes I dreamt of you too
Does he know your talkin' to me?
Will it start a fight?
No, I don't think she has a clue

Well, my girls in the next room
Sometimes I wish she was you
I guess we never really moved on

It's really good to hear your voice
Sayin my name
It sounds so sweet
Comin from the lips of an angel
Hearin those words
It makes me weak

And I
Never want to say goodbye
But girl you make it hard to be faithful
With the lips of an angel

It's really good to hear your voice
Sayin my name it sounds so sweet
Comin from the lips of an angel
Hearin those words
It makes me weak

And I
Never want to say goodbye
But girl you make it hard to be faithful
With the lips of an angel

Never want to say goodbye
But girl you make it hard to be faithful
With the lips of an angel

Honey why you callin me so late?

You're All I Have - Snow Patrol
Album - Eyes Open

Train this chaos turn it into light
I've got to see you one last night
Before the lions take their share
Leave us in pieces, scattered everywhere

Just Give me a chance to hold on
Give me a chance to hold on
Give me a chance to hold on
Just give me something to hold onto

It's so clear now that you are all that I have
I have no fear cos you are all that I have
It's so clear now that you are all that I have
I have no fear cos you are all that I have

You're cinematic razor sharp
A welcome arrow through the heart
Under your skin feels like home
Electric shocks on aching bones

Give me a chance to hold on
Give me a chance to hold on
Give me a chance to hold on
Just give me something to hold onto

It's so clear now that you are all that I have
I have no fear cos you are all that I have
It's so clear now that you are all that I have
I have no fear cos you are all that I have

There is a darkness deep in you
A frightening magic I cling to

Give me a chance to hold on
Give me a chance to hold on
Give me a chance to hold on
Just give me something to hold onto

It's so clear now that you are all that I have
I have no fear now you are all that I have
It's so clear now that you are all that I have
I have no fear now you are all that I have

Twenty Years and Two Husbands Ago - Lee Ann Womack
Album - There's More Where That Came From

Lookin' in the bathroom mirror puttin' my makeup on
Maybelline can't hide the lines of time that's gone
I weighed 105 soakin' wet, I'd knock 'em dead in that sun dress
Had it all just too young to know,
That was twenty years and, two husbands ago

I remember when he took my hand and said "I do"
And the kitchen I was standing in, when he said "I'm through"
And I swore I'd never fall back in, put my heart through that again
Never let somebody get that close
But that was twenty years and, two husbands ago

Water under the bridge
I guess that's all life really is, that's just the way it is

Driving the kids to school today, it occurred to me
With all the wrong turns I've made,
I'm where I should be
But I go back there from time to time
Lookin' for that peace of mind,
And find it's always just a dead-end road
Yeah that was twenty years and, two husbands ago

Water under the bridge
I guess that's all life really is, that's just the way it is

Lookin' in the bathroom mirror puttin' my makeup on

Total Eclipse Of The Heart - Bonnie Tyler
Album - Faster Than The Speed Of Night



Turn around...
Every now and then I get a little bit lonely,
and you're never coming round...
Turn around...
Every now and then I get a little bit tired,
of listening to the sound of my tears...
Turn around...
Every now and then I get a little bit nervous,
that the best of all the years have gone by...
Turn around...
Every now and then I get a little bit terrified,
and then I see the look in your eyes...
Turn around, bright eyes
Every now and then I fall apart
Turn around, bright eyes
Every now and then I fall apart

Turn around...
Every now and then I get a little bit breathless,
and I dream of something wild...
Turn around...
Every now and then I get a little bit helpless,
and I'm lying like a child in your arms...
Turn around...
Every now and then I get a little bit angry,
and I know i've got to get out and cry
Turn around...
Every now and then I get a little bit terrified,
but then I see the look in your eyes...
Turn around, bright eyes
Every now and then I fall apart
Turn around, bright eyes
Every now and then I fall apart

And I need you now tonight,
And I need you more than ever,
And if you only hold me tight
We'll be holding on forever,
And we'll only be making it right,
'Cause we'll never be wrong...
Together we can take it to the end of the line
Your love is like a shadow on me all of the time...
I don't know what to do and
I'm always in the dark
We're living in a powder keg
And giving off sparks!!!
I really need you tonight!!
Forever's gonna to start tonight
Forever's gonna to start tonight

Once upon a time I was falling in love
But now I'm only falling apart
There's nothing I can do
A total eclipse of the heart

Once upon a time there was light in my life
But now there's only love in the dark
Nothing I can say
A total eclipse of the heart

Turn around, bright eyes
Every now and then I fall apart
Turn around, bright eyes
Every now and then I fall apart

Turn around...
Every now and then I know you'll never be,
the boy you always wanted to be...
Turn around...
Every now and then I know you'll always be,
the only boy who wanted me the way that I am...
Turn around...
Every now and then I know there's no-one on the universe,
who's magical and warm as he is...
Turn around...
Every now and then I know there's nothing any better,
there's nothing that I just wouldn't do...
Turn around, bright eyes
Every now and then I fall apart
Turn around, bright eyes
Every now and then I fall apart

And I need you now tonight
And I need you more than ever
And if you only hold me tight
We'll be holding on forever
And we'll only be making it right
'Cause we'll never be wrong
Together we can take it to the end of the line
Your love is like a shadow on me all of the time
I don't know what to do
I'm always in the dark
We're living in a powder keg
And giving off sparks
I really need you tonight!
Forever's gonna to start tonight
Forever's gonna to start tonight

Once upon a time I was falling in love
But now I'm only falling apart
Nothing I can do
A total eclipse of the heart

Once upon a time there was light in my life
But now there's only love in the dark
Nothing I can say
A total eclipse of the heart
A total eclipse of the heart
A total eclipse of the heart

..Turn around bright eyes
..Turn around bright eyes, turn around..

Hands Down - Dashboard Confessional
Album - A Mark, A Mission, A Brand, A Scar

Breathe in for luck, breathe in so deep
This air is blessed, you share with me
This night is wild, so calm and dull
These hearts, they race from self-control
Your legs are smooth as they graze mine
We're doing fine, we're doing nothing at all

My hopes are so high that your kiss might kill me
So won't you kill me, so I die happy
My heart is yours, to fill or burst
To break or bury, or wear as jewelry
Whichever you prefer

The words are hushed, let's not get busted
Just lay entwined here, undiscovered
Safe in here from all the stupid questions
"Hey, did you get some?"
Man, that is so dumb
Stay quiet, stay near, stay close
They can't hear, so we can get some

My hopes are so high that your kiss might kill me
So won't you kill me, so I die happy
My heart is yours, to fill or burst
To break or bury, or wear as jewelry
Whichever you prefer

Hands down, this is the best day I can ever remember
I'll always remember the sound of the stereo
The dim of the soft lights, the scent of your hair
That you twirled in your fingers
And the time on the clock when we realized it's so late
And this walk that we shared together
The streets were wet and the gate was locked
So I jumped it and I let you in
And you stood at your door with your hands on my waist
And you kissed me like you meant it
And I knew that you meant it
That you meant it, that you meant it
And I knew that you meant it, that you meant it

For You - Barenaked Ladies
Album - Everything to Everyone


I have set aside everything I love
I have saved everything else for you
I cannot decide what this doubt's made of
Though I thought over it through and through

In a book in a box high upon a shelf
In a locked and guarded vault
Are the things I keep only for myself
It's your fate but it's not your fault

[CHORUS:]
And for every useless reason I know
There's a reason not to care
If I hide myself wherever I go
Am I ever really there?

There is nowhere else I would rather be,
but I can't just be right here
An enigma wrapped in a mystery,
or a fool consumed by fear

[CHORUS]

I will give you all I could ever give
Though it's less than you will need
Could you just forget, if you can't forgive
All the things I cannot concede

[CHORUS]

Purple Heather - Rod Stewart
Album - A Spanner In The Works


[Intro not in English]

Oh the summertime is gone,
And the leaves are sweetly turning.
And the wild mountain thyme,
Blooms across the purple heather.
Will you go, lassie. go?

If you will not go with me,
I will never find another,
To pick wild mountain thyme,
All along the purple heather.
Will you go, lassie, go?

And we'll go together,
To pick wild mountain thyme.
All among the purple heather,
Will you go, lassie, go?

Lassie go.

I will build my love a tower,
By the cool, crystal, waters.
And I'll cling to her forever,
Like the ivy to the heather,
Will you go, lassie, go.

And we'll go together,
To pick wild mountain thyme.
All along the purple heather,
Will you go, lassie, go?

Lassie, go.

[Not in English]

Will you go, lassie, go?

And we'll all go together,
To pick wild mountain thyme.
All among the purple heather,
Will you go, lassie, go.

And we'll all go together,
To pull wild mountain thyme.
All across the purple heather,
Will you go, lassie, go?
Lassie, go,
Lassie, go.

Kidding Ourselves - Stabilo
Album - Happiness And Disaster

And I, I wanted to tear down the curtains
To let, let in some natural light
I wake up and open one eye
And wait for the window to crack at me, alone

And I, I wanted to curl up beside you
And die, at least for an hour or more
Depending on how you react
Depending on how you respond to me
I'll stick around

We're kidding ourselves kidding ourselves
So what do you want from me
'Cause as long as there's a payphone and a taxi cab I'm alright 'cause I can leave home
We're kidding ourselves kidding ourselves
So what are you waiting for
'Cause even with a fast car and a cellphone I won't leave 'cause I'd be alone

So tonight, let's be as bold as we want to
And drink, drink 'til we fall down the steps
Remember how that made us laugh
Remember how all that we did was laugh, and cry

Well, we're kidding ourselves kidding ourselves
So what do you want from me
'Cause as long as there's a payphone and a taxi cab I'm alright 'cause I can leave home
We're kidding ourselves kidding ourselves
So what are you waiting for
'Cause even on a boat a train or a jet plane I won't leave 'cause I'd be alone
And I'm lucky to find cardboard in an alleyway that I can call home

So tonight, let's be as bold as we want to run, four eyes ohhh
We're kidding ourselves kidding ourselves
So what do you want from me
'Cause as long as there's a payphone and a taxi cab I'm alright 'cause I can leave home
We're kidding ourselves kidding ourselves
So what are you waiting for
'Cause even on a boat a train or a jet plane I won't leave 'cause I'd be alone
I'm lucky to find cardboard in an alleyway that I can call home
So don't take your eyes off me, don't look away
I won't be alone
At home

[~ Susan ~]

Tonight - Reamonn
Album - Wish

She never took the train alone
she hated being on her own
She always took me by the hands
and say she needs me
She never wanted love to fail
she always hoped that it was real
She'd look me in the eyes and say believe me
But then night becomes the day
and there’s nothing left to say
If there's nothing left to say
then something’s wrong

Oh tonight you killed me with your smile
so beautiful and wild so beautiful
Oh tonight you killed me with your smile
so beautiful and wild so beautiful and wild

And as the hands would turn with time
she'd always say that she was mine
She'd turn and lend a smile
to say that she's gone
But in a whisper she'd arrive
and dance into my life
Like a music melody
like a lovers song

Oh tonight you killed me with your smile
so beautiful and wild so beautiful
Oh tonight you killed me with your smile
so beautiful and wild so beautiful and wild

Through the darkest night
comes the brightest light
And the light that shines
is deep inside
It's who you are

Oh tonight you killed me with your smile
so beautiful and wild so beautiful
Oh tonight you killed me with your smile
so beautiful and wild so beautiful …beautiful
Oh tonight you killed me with your smile
so beautiful and wild so beautiful and wild
So beautiful and wild
So beautiful and wild

Get together - Madonna
Album - Confessions On A Dancefloor


It's an illusion
There's too much confusion
It's an illusion
There's too much confusion

Down, down, down in your heart
Find, find, find the secret
Turn, turn, turn, turn your head around
Baby we can do it
We can do it alright

Do you believe in love at first sight?
It´s an illusion, I don´t care
Do you believe I can make you feel better
Too much confusion, come on over here

can we get together?
I really, I really wanna be with you
come on, check it out with me
I hope you, I hope you feel the same way too

I´ve searched
I´ve searched
I´ve searched my whole life
to find, to find, to find the secret
and all I did was open up my eyes
baby we can do it
we can do it alright

do you believe that we can change the future?
do you believe I can make you feel better?

can we get together?
I really, I really wanna be with you
come on, check it out with me
I hope you, I hope you feel the same way too
(repeat)

It's an illusion
There´s too much confusion
I´ll make you feel better
If it´s better at the start
then it´s sweeter in the end

Do you believe in love at first sight?
It´s an illusion, I don´t care
Do you believe I can make you feel better
Too much confusion, come on over here

can we get together?
I really, I really wanna be with you
come on check it out with me
I hope you, I hope you feel the same way too
(repeat)

It´s an illusion
There's too much confusion
I´ll make you feel better
If it´s better at the start
Then it´s sweeter in end

Friend Of Mine - Treble Charger
Album - Maybe It's Me


Funny tortured mind
It happens all the time
It's not too encouraging
You never prayed for anything

What makes you so great
Something I would indicate
The lamest stand
The strongest can't help the similarities

Doesn't seem at all severe
Is it fair now? Does it matter?
Backwards through another year
I'll come down soon
Don't tell me what to do

I'll make no claim on your design
I will not call you a friend of mine
I cannot follow your disguise
I will not
I will not

I'm not sure what you say
Makes any difference anyway
Tell me what you mean
With any hope of coming clean

It's brought to you too late now
But I appreciate
the never-ending sameness
We've had days like this before

I'll make no claim on your design
I will not call you a friend of mine
I cannot follow your disguise
I will not
I will not

I will not call you a friend of mine
I will not
I will not

[~ Susan ~]

The Key - Lovebugs
Album - In Every Waking Moment

Seems I've been waiting half a life
For things to arrive
That won't come
Seems I've been waiting all this time
For the perfect rhyme
Now it's done

But I forgot what it was I'm looking for
I found the key but not the door
Nothing more

Heyeyey
Is there anybody home tonight?
I can hear you on the other side
But I can't get through
I say heyeyey
Theres no beginning, theres no end
A vicious circle cause I cannot mend
The love I feel for you

Seems I've been seeing things in you
That could not come true
Come alive
Seems I've been trying all these years
To fight back the tears
And survive

Yes I forgot, what it was Im looking for
I found the key but not the door
Nothing more

Heyeyey
Is there anybody home tonight?
I can hear you on the other side
But I can't get through
I say heyeyey
Theres no begining, theres no end
A vicious circle cause I cannot mend
The love I feel for you

The love that I feel
Lies here for you
The love that I feel
Just cant get through

I wanna get to you
I wanna get to you

BOB SEGER lyrics - "Turn The Page"



On a long and lonesome highway, east of Omaha
You can listen to the engine moanin' out it's one note song
You can think about the woman, or the girl you knew the night before
But your thoughts will soon be wandering, the way they always do
When you're riding sixteen hours and there's nothing there to do
And you don't feel much like riding, you just wish the trip was through

Here I am, on the road again
There I am, on the stage
Here I go, playing star again
There I go, turn the page

Well you walk into a restaurant all strung out from the road
And you feel the eyes upon you as you're shaking off the cold
You pretend it doesn't bother you, but you just want to explode

Most times you can't hear 'em talk, other times you can
All the same old cliche's, is it woman is it man?
You always seem outnumbered, so you don't dare make a stand

Here I am, on the road again
There I am, on the stage
Here I go, playing star again
There I go, turn the page

Out there in the spotlight you're a million miles away
Every ounce of energy, you try to give away
As the sweat pours out your body like the music that you play

Later in the evening as you lie awake in bed
With the echoes from the amplifiers ringin' in your head
You smoke the days last cigarette, remembering what she said

Here I am, on the road again
There I am, up on the stage
Here I go, playing star again
There I go, turn the page

Here I am, on the road again
There I am, on the stage yeah
Here I go, playing star again
There I go, there I go

"Sunday Morning Coming Down"

Well, I woke up Sunday morning
With no way to hold my head that didn't hurt.
And the beer I had for breakfast wasn't bad,
So I had one more for dessert.
Then I fumbled in my closet through my clothes
And found my cleanest dirty shirt.
Then I washed my face and combed my hair
And stumbled down the stairs to meet the day.

I'd smoked my mind the night before
With cigarettes and songs I'd been picking.
But I lit my first and watched a small kid
Playing with a can that he was kicking.
Then I walked across the street
And caught the Sunday smell of someone frying chicken.
And Lord, it took me back to something that I'd lost
Somewhere, somehow along the way.

On a Sunday morning sidewalk,
I'm wishing, Lord, that I was stoned.
'Cause there's something in a Sunday
That makes a body feel alone.
And there's nothing short a' dying
That's half as lonesome as the sound
Of the sleeping city sidewalk
And Sunday morning coming down.

In the park I saw a daddy
With a laughing little girl that he was swinging.
And I stopped beside a Sunday school
And listened to the songs they were singing.
Then I headed down the street,
And somewhere far away a lonely bell was ringing,
And it echoed through the canyon
Like the disappearing dreams of yesterday.

On a Sunday morning sidewalk,
I'm wishing, Lord, that I was stoned.
'Cause there's something in a Sunday
That makes a body feel alone.
And there's nothing short a' dying
That's half as lonesome as the sound
Of the sleeping city sidewalk
And Sunday morning coming down.

Time Flies - Vaya Con Dios
Album - Time Flies


It's been such a funny day
I don't know why
Walking on an endless lane
Life passing me by
Tommorow is calling
But I'm dragging my feet
The skies are indecently clear
But I can't stand the heat
Sleepwalking in a haze
Stumbling like a child
Dragons that I used to chase
Tease me from inside
The future's uncertain
Just like yesterday
Memories of heaven
Can't be taken away

You know, time flies
And the rebels, one day
They all go quiet
Ain't no money, ain't nobody
That can buy you peace of mind

They say you can learn from your mistakes
It's a lie
My redemption has been staged
Numerous times
But the angel of passion
Still taunt me, in my sleep
They keep throwing petals and thorns
Underneath my feet

You know, time flies
And the rebels, one day
They all go quiet
Ain't no money, ain't nobody
That can buy you peace of mind

[~ Susan ~]

Tell Me Baby - Red Hot Chili Peppers
Album - Stadium Arcadium

They come from every state to find
Some dreams were meant to be declined
Tell the man what did you have in mind
What have you come to do

No turning water into wine
No learning while you're in the line
I'll take you to the broken sign
You see these lights are blue

Come and get it
Lost it at the city limit
Say goodbye
'Cause they will find a way to trim it
Everybody lookin' for a silly gimmick
Gotta get away
Can’t take it for another minute

This town is made of many things
Just look at what the current brings
So high it’s only promising
This place was made on you

Tell me baby, what’s your story
Where you come from
And where you wanna go this time
Tell me lover, are you lonely
The thing we need is
Never all that hard to find,
Tell me baby what’s your story
Where do you come from
And where you wanna go this time
You’re so lovely, are you lonely
Giving up on the innocence you left behind

Some claim to have the fortitude
Too shrewd to blow the interlude
Sustaining pain to set a mood
Step out to be renewed

I’ll move you like a baritone
Jungle Brothers on the microphone
Getting over with an undertone
It’s time to turn to stone

Chitty chitty baby
When your nose is in the nitty gritty
Life can be a little sweet
But life can be a little shitty
What a pity
Boston and a Kansas City
Looking for a hundred
But you only ever found a fitty

Three fingers in the honeycomb
You ring just like a xylophone
Devoted to the chromosome
The day that you left home

(2x’s)
Tell me baby what’s your story
Where you come from
And where you wanna go this time
Tell me lover, are you lonely
The thing we need is
Never all that hard to find,
Tell me baby, what’s your story
Where you come from
And where you wanna go this time
You’re so lovely, are you lonely
Giving up on the innocence you left behind

When You Were Young - The Killers
Album - When You Were Young

You sit there in your heartache
Waiting on some beautiful boy
To to save your from your old ways
You play forgiveness
Watch it now- here he comes

He doesn't look a thing like Jesus
But he talks like a gentlemen
Like you imagined when you were young

Can we climb this mountain
I don't know
Higher now than ever before
I know we can make it if we take it slow
Let's take it easy
Easy now, watch it go

We're burning down the highway skyline
On the back of a hurricane that started turning
When you were young
When you were young

And sometimes you close your eyes and see the place where you Used to live
When you were young

They say the devil's water, it ain't so sweet
You don't have to drink right now
But you can dip your feet
Every once in a little while

You sit there in your heartache
Waiting on some beautiful boy
To save you from your old ways
You play forgiveness
Watch it now here he comes

He doesn't look a thing like Jesus
But he talks like a gentlemen
Like you imagined when you were young
When you were young

I said he doesn't look a thing like Jesus
He doesn't look a thing like Jesus
But more than you'll ever know

Chasing Cars - Snow Patrol
Album - Eyes Open

We'll do it all, everything, on our own
We don't need anything or anyone

If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lay with me
And just forget the world

I don't quite know how to say how I feel
Those three words are said too much
They're not enough

If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lay with me
And just forget the world
Forget what we're told
Before we get too old
Show me a garden that's bursting into life

Let's waste time
Chasing cars
Around our heads
I need your grace to remind me
To find my own

If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lay with me
And just forget the world
Forget what we're told
Before we get too old
Show me a garden that's bursting into life

All that I am
All that I ever was
Is here in your perfect eyes
They're all I can see
I don't know where
Confused about how as well
I just know that these things
Will never change for us at all

If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lay with me
And just forget the world

I Wish I Was A Punk Rocker (With Flowers In My Hair) - Sandi Thom
Album - It Confuses People


Oh I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair
In 77 and 69 revolution was in the air
I was born too late and to a world that doesn't care
Oh I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair

When the head of state didn't play guitar
Not everybody drove a car
When music really mattered and when radio was king
When accountants didn't have control
And the media couldn't buy your soul
When computers were still scary and we didn't know everything

Oh I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair
77 and 69 revolution was in the air
I was born too late to a world that doesn't care
Oh I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair

When popstars still remained a myth
And ignorance could still be bliss
And when God Saved the Queen she turned a whiter shade of pale
My mum and dad were in their teens
And anarchy was still a dream
And the only way to stay in touch was a letter in the mail

Oh I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair
77 and 69 revolution was in the air
I was born too late to a world that doesn't care
Oh I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair

When record shops were on top
And vinyl was all that they stocked
And the super info highway was still drifting out in space
Kids were wearing hand me downs
And playing games meant kick arounds
And footballers still had long hair and dirt across their face

Oh I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair
77 and 69 revolution was in the air
I was born too late to a world that doesn't care
Oh I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair

I was born too late to a world that doesn't care
Oh I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair

Ruby Tuesday - The Rolling Stones
Album - Between The Buttons



She would never say where she came from
Yesterday don't matter if it's gone
While the sun is bright
Or in the darkest night
No one knows
She comes and goes

Goodbye, Ruby Tuesday
Who could hang a name on you?
When you change with every new day
Still I'm gonna miss you...

Don't question why she needs to be so free
She'll tell you it's the only way to be
She just can't be chained
To a life where nothing's gained
And nothing's lost
At such a cost

Goodbye, Ruby Tuesday
Who could hang a name on you?
When you change with every new day
Still I'm gonna miss you...

There's no time to lose, I heard her say
Catch your dreams before they slip away
Dying all the time
Lose your dreams
And you will lose your mind.
Ain't life unkind?

Goodbye, Ruby Tuesday
Who could hang a name on you?
When you change with every new day
Still I'm gonna miss you...

Manic Monday - The Bangles
Album - Greatest Hits



Six o' clock already
I was just in the middle of a dream
I was kissin' Valentino
By a crystal blue Italian stream
But I can't be late
Cause then I guess I just won't get paid
These are the days
When you wish your bed was already made

It's just another manic Monday
I wish it was Sunday
Cause that's my fun day
My I don't have to run day
It's just another manic Monday

Have to catch an early train
Got to be to work by nine
And if I had an aeroplane
I still couldn't make it on time
Cause it takes me so long just to figure out what I'm gonna wear
Blame it on the train
But the boss is already there

It's just another manic Monday
Wish it was Sunday
Cause that's my fun day
My I don't have to run day
It's just another manic Monday

Out of my nights
Why did my lover have to pick last night
To get down
Doesn't it matter
That I have to feed the both of us
Employment's down
He tells me in his bedroom voice
C'mon honey, let's go make some noise
Time it goes so fast
When you're having fun

It's just another manic Monday
I wish it was Sunday
Cause that's my fun day
I don't have to run day
It's just another manic Monday
I wish it was Sunday
Cause that's my fun day
It's just a manic Monday

Tequila Makes Her Clothes Fall Off - Joe Nichols
Album - III


She said I’m going out with my girlfriends
Marguerita’s at the holiday inn
Oh have mercy my only thought
Was tequila makes her clothes fall off
I told her put an extra layer on
I know what happens when she drinks patron?
Her closets missing half the things she bought
Yea tequila makes her clothes fall off

She’ll start by kicking out of her shoes
Lose an earring in her drink
Leave her jacket in the bathroom stall
Drop a contact down the sink

Them panty hose aint gonna last too long
If the DJ puts Bon Jovi on
She might come home in a table cloth
Yea tequila makes her clothes fall off

She can handle any champagne brunch
A bridal shower with Bacardi punch
Jello shooters full of Smirnoff
But tequila makes her clothes fall off

She’ll start by kicking out of her shoes
Lose an earring in her drink
Leave her jacket in the bathroom stall
Drop a contact down the sink

She don’t mean nothing
She just havin fun
Tomorrow she say oh what have I done
Her friends will joke about the stuff she lost
Yea tequila makes her clothes fall off
Oh tequila makes her clothes fall off
Oh tequila makes her clothes fall off

Dance Inside - The All American Rejects
Album - Move Along


You don't have to move, you don't have to speak
lips for biting
you're staring me down, a glance makes me weak
eyes for striking
now I'm twisted up when I'm twisted with you
brush so lightly
and time trickles down, and I'm breathing for two
squeeze so tightly
I'll be fine, you'll be fine
this moment seems so long
don't waste now, precious time
we'll dance inside the song

[Chorus]
What makes the one to shake you down?
each touch belongs to each new sound
say now you want to shake me too
move down to me, slip into you

She sinks in my mind as she sheds through her skin
touch like taste like fire
hands to know what eyes no longer defend
hands to fuel desire
I'll be fine, you'll be fine
this moment seems so long
don't waste now, precious time
we'll dance inside the song

[Chorus]

Ooo, ah
Ooo, ah
Ooo, ah
Ooo, ah [x2]

And I'll be fine, you'll be fine
is this fine? I'm not fine
give me pieces, give me things to stay awake (stay awake)

[Chorus x2]

Love Is All Around - Wet Wet Wet
Album - Picture This


I feel it in my fingers
I feel it in my toes
Love is all around me
And so the feeling grows

It's written on the wind
It's everywhere I go, oh yes it is
So if you really love me
Come on and let it show

You know I love you, I always will
My mind's made up by the
Way that I feel
There's no beginning,
There'll be no end
'cause on my love you can depend

I see your face before me
As I lay on my bed
I kinda get to thinking
Of all the things you said, oh yes I did

You gave your promise to me and i
Gave mine to you
I need someone beside me
In everything I do, oh yes I do

You know I love you, I always will,
My mind's made up by the
Way that I feel
There's no beginning,
There'll be no end
'cause on my love you can depend

Got to keep it moving
Oh it's written in the wind
Oh everywhere I go, yeah, oh well
So if you really love me, love me, love me
Come on and let it show
Come on and let it show
Come on and let it
Come on and let it (come and let it show, baby)
Come on, come on, come on let it show baby
Come on and let it show
Come on and let it show, baby
Come on and let it show

By bit (bit by bit, bit by bit)....

Wish You Were Here - Pink Floyd
Album - 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
Did they get you to trade
Your heroes for ghosts
Hot ashes for trees
Hot air for a cool breeze
Cold comfort for change
Did you exchange
A walk on part in the war
For a lead role in a cage

How I wish
How I wish you were here
We're just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl
Year after year
Running over the same old ground
What have we found
The same old fears
Wish you were here

Don't Stop Dancing - Creed
Album - Weathered




At times life is wicked and I just can’t
see the light
A silver lining sometimes isn’t enough
To make some wrongs seem right
Whatever life brings
I’ve been through everything
And now I’m on my knees again

But I know I must go on
Although I hurt I must be strong
Because inside I know that many
feel this way

Children don’t stop dancing
Believe you can fly
Away…away

At times life’s unfair and you know
it’s plain to see
Hey God I know I’m just a dot in
this world
Have you forgot about me?
whatever life brings
Ive been through everything
And now I’m on my knees again

And now I’m on my knees again

But I know I must go on
Although I hurt I must be strong
Because inside I know that many
feel this way

Children don’t stop dancing
Believe you can fly
Away…awaaaaaaayyy

Am I hiding in the shadows?
Forget the pain and forget the sorrows [2X]

But I know I must go on
Although I hurt I must be strong
Because inside I know that many
feel this way

Children don’t stop dancing
Believe you can fly
Away…away [3X]

Am I hiding in the shadows?
Are we hiding in the shadows?

Elsewhere - Sarah McLachlan
Album - Fumbling Towards Ecstasy


I love the time and in between
the calm inside me
in the space where I can breathe
I believe there is a
distance I have wandered
to touch upon the years of
reaching out and reaching in
holding out holding in

I believe
this is heaven to no one else but me
and I'll defend it as long as I can be
left here to linger in silence
if I choose to
would you try to understand

I know this love is passing time
passing through like liquid
I am drunk in my desire...
but I love the way you smile at me
I love the way your hands reach out and hold me near...
I believe...

I believe
this is heaven to no one else but me
and I'll defend it as long as
I can be left here to linger in silence
if I choose to
would you try to understand

Oh the quiet child awaits the day when she can break free
the mold that clings like desperation
Mother can't you see I've got
to live my life the way I feel is right for me
might not be right for you but it's right for me...
I believe...

I believe
this is heaven to no one else but me
and I'll defend it as long as
I can be left here to linger in silence
if I choose to
would you try to understand it

I would like to linger here in silence
if I choose to
would you understand it
would you try to understand...

St. Lawrence River - David Usher
Album - Little Songs



Smells on the air
See there it's crushing
The final impression
The stains on the paper
Where words fell like water
Unearth all the changes that never did matter
I think its beginning to freeze here

Caught in the rage and the fire of things
All the brightness that burns me
I'm fumbling through like a child in the dark
When the nakedness comes
I am shocked by the colour
The glorious weight of your skin
Comes alive
And I never thought we'd make it back so soon
Might be nice but I knew you'd be your own destroyer
Comes a time
And I always thought I'd make it up to you

Here please forgive me
How could we escape all the bitterness
Piled upon bitterness
Held in the face of the things
That I don't understand intellectualize
Over and over
This helplessness suits us
It's funny how quiet it has slipped to our corners
And worn all our edges away you are watching
Breathing and baiting
Wanting and warming
And cautiously waiting for some simple signal
To creep cross your conscience
Uncover redemption and oh did I mention I carried you down
To the St. Lawrence river
The banks running dirty
The waters beginning to freeze here
Solid by morning and I'll freeze here

Winter by morning
Comes alive
And I never thought you'd get me back so soon
Might be nice but its only if my own destroyer
Comes alive
And I always knew I'd make it up to you

I saw on your face such a curious grin
As I let go your hand I was
Desperate to hold you again
But you're sinking
To deep in the water outsmarted myself and so easily
Gave up what I wanted
Solid by morning
What I wanted
Winter by morning
Comes alive
And I never thought you'd make it up so soon
Might be nice but I always knew you're my destroyer
Comes a time
And I always thought I'd make it up to you

Solid by morning
And I'll freeze here
Winter by morning

Underneath It All - No Doubt
Album - Rock Steady




There's times when I want something more
Someone more like me
There's times when this dress rehearsal
Seems incomplete

But you see the colours in me
Like no one else
And behind your dark glasses
Your something else

You're really lovely underneath it all
Do you want to love me underneath it all
I'm really lucky underneath it all
You're really lovely

You know some real bad tricks
And you need some discipline
But lately you've been trying real hard,
And giving me your best

And you give me the most gorgeous sleep
That I've ever had
And when its really bad
I guess its not that bad

You're really lovely underneath it all
Do you want to love me underneath it all
I'm really lucky underneath it all
You're really lovely

So many moons that we have seen
Stumbling back next to me
I've seen right through and underneath
And you make me better
I've seen right through and underneath
And you make me better, better, better

For real, I saw my darling
You are my real Prince Charming
Like the heat from the fire
You were always burning
And each time you're around
My body keeps staling for your touch
Your kisses and your sweet romancin'
There's an underside a you that so many adore
Aside from your temper everything else secure
You're good for me, baby
Oh that, I'm a sure
Over and over again
I want more

You've used up all your coupons
And all you got left is me
And somehow I'm full of forgiveness
I guess it's meant to be

You're really lovely underneath it all
Do you want to love me underneath it all
I'm really lucky underneath it all
You're really lovely

You're really lovely underneath it all
Do you want to love me underneath it all
I'm really lucky underneath it all
You're really lovely

You're really lovely underneath it all
Do you want to love me underneath it all
I'm really lucky underneath it all
You're really lovely

Underneath it all
Underneath it all
Underneath it all

Piano Man - Billy Joel
Album - Piano Man

It's nine o'clock on a Saturday
The regular crowd shuffles in
There's an old man sitting next to me
Making love to his tonic and gin

He says, "Son, can you play me a memory?
I'm not really sure how it goes
But it's sad and it's sweet and I knew it complete
When I wore a younger man's clothes"

La la la, de de da
La la, de de da da da

CHORUS:
Sing us a song, you're the piano man
Sing us a song tonight
Well, we're all in the mood for a melody
And you've got us feelin' alright

Now John at the bar is a friend of mine
He gets me my drinks for free
And he's quick with a joke or to light up your smoke
But there's someplace that he'd rather be
He says, "Bill, I believe this is killing me."
As a smile ran away from his face
"Well I'm sure that I could be a movie star
If I could get out of this place"

Oh, la la la, de de da
La la, de de da da da

Now Paul is a real estate novelist
Who never had time for a wife
And he's talkin' with Davy who's still in the Navy
And probably will be for life

And the waitress is practicing politics
As the businessmen slowly get stoned
Yes, they're sharing a drink they call loneliness
But it's better than drinkin' alone

CHORUS

It's a pretty good crowd for a Saturday
And the manager gives me a smile
'Cause he knows that it's me they've been comin' to see
To forget about life for awhile
And the piano, it sounds like a carnival
And the microphone smells like a beer
And they sit at the bar and put bread in my jar
And say, "Man, what are you doin' here?"

Oh, la la la, de de da
La la, de de da da da

CHORUS

No Regrets - Gob
Album- The World According To Gob


all the things that i've regretted
and all the place i was headed with you
i wanna pursue
even though you're not a go-getter
you could show me,
we could do better you'll see,
take a chance on me

but i know, i know
this feeling that i have inside of me
in me,
my belly's burning and it's turning
don't you see
i'm upset and yet no regrets

if there ever was a time when i could go back and make it all fine with you,
i wanna pursue
all the blood and tears i've sweated all the work, we can't forget it you'll see,
take a chance on me

but i know, i know
this feeling that i have inside of me
in me,
my belly's burning and it's turning
don't you see
i'm upset and yet no regrets

all the things that i've regretted and all the places i was headed with you
i wanna pursue
no more standing around i've said it
get off your ass and we'll go get it you'll see
take a chance on me

but i know, i know
this feeling that i have inside of me
in me,
my belly's burning and it's turning
don't you see
i'm upset and yet no regrets

What Was Going Through My Head - Grapes Of Wrath
Album - Now and Again

Let me see through all the lights
I know I'll feel better in time
You shoulda told me a lie
I tell you why, I don't know
What was going through my head

Now things have cleared, I'm not dead
Now that I've settled in bed
You shoulda told me a lie
I tell you why, I don't know
What was going through my head

What if I walked off the line
What if I never revived
You shoulda told me a lie
I tell you why, I don't know
What was going through my head
You know it should have been red
You know I should have been led

Down in deep inside
I am safe and now and then I want to fly
Away from everything
On my own on my way through the night

I wake up I don't know where I've been
And then I'll start over again
You shoulda told me a lie
I tell you why, I don't know
What was going through my head
I tell you why, I don't know
What was going through my head
You know it should have been red
You know I should have been led
You know I could have been dead
