Nothing But A Miracle -- Diane Birch

2012-01-15T15:10:00.000-08:00

Gettin' tired of livin', livin' for a moment
Gettin' tired of hanging on the line
I wake up every morning and I pull back the curtain
And wonder if it's gonna rain or shine

Gettin' tired of thinking, gettin' so tired of begging
Gettin' tired of forgetting that there's two of us
I'm getting so tired of loving a man that just don't give a damn

Just tell me, tell me baby why I'm holding on
When your lovin's long gone?
I got a good mind so why don't you tell me why
I can't say goodbye

Just tell me baby why I've been holding on for so long?
And nothing but a miracle is gonna bring you back
Bring you back to me now

I gotta get myself together
Gotta stop telling myself that I can do no better
Gotta go out and maybe start meeting some new people
I gotta go out and buy myself one of those little black dresses

'Cause I'm so tired of this T-shirt
I'm so tired of cryin' off all my make up
Gettin just so tired of waking up with a lonely heart
I'm getting so tired of giving a damn about an absent hearted man

Just tell me, tell me baby why I'm holding on
When your lovin's long gone?
I got a good mind so why don't you tell me why
I can't say goodbye

Just tell me baby why I've been holding on for so long?
And nothing but a miracle is gonna bring you back
Bring you back to me now

Oh, I can see it
Coming down the shadows
I can see it, it's coming through
It's coming through the windows

Oh, I can see it
I can see it coming down the ceiling
I can't escape it, can't escape it
No I can't escape it

Tell me, yeah, why I'm holding on
When your love is long gone?
I got a good mind so why don't you tell me why
I can't say goodbye

Just tell me baby why I've been holding on for so long?
And nothing but a miracle is gonna to bring it back
Bring you back to me now

Oh, nothing but a miracle is gonna bring you back to me now
Oh, nothing but a miracle, oh no, no
Oh, nothing but a miracle is gonna bring you back to me now
Oh no

Someone Like You -- Adele

2012-01-07T19:43:00.000-08:00

I heard that you're settled down
That you found a girl and you're married now.
I heard that your dreams came true.
Guess she gave you things I didn't give to you.

Old friend, why are you so shy?
Ain't like you to hold back or hide from the light.

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

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

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

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

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

Nothing compares
No worries or cares
Regrets and mistakes
They are memories made.
Who would have known how bittersweet this would taste?

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

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

You Never Stop Loving Somebody -- Big and Rich

2012-01-05T21:23:00.000-08:00

It's complicated, when love has faded
And you can't hold on anymore
You gotta let go even though you know
Your heart's gonna hate it
And it just might break it

You never stop loving somebody
No matter what you tell yourself
You never stop loving somebody
You just, start loving somebody else

The only solution, is making the conclusion
That it's just another lesson in life
Even though it's over,
It's never really over at goodbye
No matter how hard you try

You never stop loving somebody
No matter what you tell yourself
You never stop loving somebody
You just, start loving somebody else

No matter what you say or what you do
Even when you find somebody new

You never stop loving somebody
No matter what you tell yourself
You never stop loving somebody
You just, start loving somebody else

Start loving somebody else
Oh, start loving somebody else
Start loving somebody else

I Forgive You -- Kelly Clarkson

I forgive you, I forgive me
Now when do I start to feel again?
I forgive you, I forgive me
Now when do I start to feel again?

'Cause the lights are on
But I'm never home
But I'll be back with a brand new attitude
'Cause I forgive you

I forgive you
We were just a couple of kids
Trying to figure out how to live
Doing it our way
No shame, no blame
'Cause the damage is done
And I forgive you

I forgive you
We were busy living the dream
Never noticed the glass ceiling falling on us
No shame, no blame
'Cause the damage is done
And I forgive you

I forgive you, I forgive me
Now do I start to feel again?
If I hate you, what does that do?
So I breathe in and I count to 10

'Cause the lights are on
And I'm coming home
Yes I am back
With a new heart in my hand
Cause I forgive you

I forgive you
We were just a couple of kids
Trying to figure out how to live
Doing it our way
No shame, no blame
'Cause the damage is done
And I forgive you

I forgive you
We were busy living the dream
Never noticed the glass ceiling falling on us
No shame, no blame
'Cause the damage is done
And I forgive you

I forgive you
For every time that I cried
Over some stupid thing you did to hurt me
That's alright, yeah I forgive you

I forgive you
We were just a couple of kids
Trying to figure out how to live
Doing it our way
No shame, no blame
'Cause the damage is done
And I forgive you

Never noticed the glass ceiling falling on us
No shame, no blame
'Cause the damage is done

Animal -- Neon Trees

Here we go again
I kinda wanna be more than friends
So take it easy on me
I'm afraid
You're never satisfied
Here we go again
We're sick like animals
We play pretend
You're just
A cannibal

Take a bite of
My heart tonight

Denied by you
The animal inside of you

I Don't Believe You -- Pink

2011-12-23T19:58:00.000-08:00

I don't mind it
I don't mind at all
It's like you're the swing set and I'm the kid that falls
It's like the way we fight, the times I've cried, we come to blows
And every night the passion's there so it's gotta be right, right?

No I don't believe you
When you say don't come around here no more
I won't remind you
You said we wouldn't be apart
No, I don't believe you
When you say you don't need me anymore
So don't pretend
To not love me at all

I don't mind it
I still don't mind at all
It's like one of those bad dreams when you can't wake up
Looks like you've given up, you've had enough
But I want more no I won't stop
'cause I just know you'll come around... right?

No I don't believe you
When you say don't come around here no more
I won't remind you
You said we wouldn't be apart
No, I don't believe you
When you say you don't need me anymore
So don't pretend
To not love me at all

Just don't stand there and watch me fall
'cause I, 'cause I still don't mind at all
It's like the way we fight, the times I cry, we come to blows
And every night the passion's there so it's gotta be right, right?

No I don't believe you
When you say don't come around here no more
I won't remind you
You said we wouldn't be apart
No, I don't believe you
When you say you don't need me anymore
So don't pretend
To not love me at all

I don't believe you

Only Love -- Grace Potter and the Nocturnals

2011-11-16T10:45:00.001-08:00

I wake up with my hair on fire
I need something to water me down
I can't keep walking on this wire
I gotta move, I gotta come around

It ain't gonna kill me
If I can stop this before it starts
What don't kill you makes you stronger,
It's only my soul, It's only my heart
And it's only love
It's only love
It's only love
And I can give you up, baby

I wake up with my mind unwinding
I got a strange tingle in my toes
I fall asleep and I dream of finding
Somebody who really knows
It ain't gonna kill me
If I can stop this before it starts
What don't kill you makes you stronger,
It's only my soul, It's only my heart
And it's only love
It's only love
It's only love
And I can give you up, yes I can

I need to loosen my grip just a little bit
I feel this love like a stranglehold
But there's something stopping me from losing it
There's nothing harder than letting go

But it's only love
It's only love
It's only love
And I can give you up, yes I can

Because it's only love
It's only love
It's only love
And I can give you up, yes I can

It's only love
It's only love
It's only love
And I can give you up, my baby

Men & Mascara -- Julie Roberts

2011-11-15T22:08:00.001-08:00

Sunday dress hanging on the bedroom door
Empty bottle of wine on the hardwood floor
Last night, he said she was the one
Oh, but men and mascara always run

Did I give my love too soon or wait too long
Did I take it a little too easy, or put it on too strong
She was looking for love, he was looking for fun
Yeah, men and mascara always run

She ain't getting any younger
It wasn't s'posed to be this way
Staring in the mirror
With little black rivers running down her face

Tomorrow's gonna be a brand new day
She'll wake up in the morning and wash it all away
Last night, he said she was the one
Oh, but men and mascara, they always run
Yeah, men and mascara always run

It's A Heartache -- Trick Pony (originally Bonnie Tyler)

2011-11-15T22:00:00.001-08:00

It's a heartache,
Nothin' but a heartache:
Hits you when it's too late,
Hits you when you're down.

It's a fool's game,
Nothin' but a fool's game:
Standing in the cold rain,
Feeling like a clown.

It's a heartache,
Nothin' but a heartache:
Love him till your arms break,
Then he lets you down.

It ain't right with love to share,
When you find he doesn't care for you.
It ain't wise to need someone,
As much as I depended on you.

Ah, it's a heartache,
Nothin' but a heartache:
Hits you when it's too late,
Hits you when you're down.
Ah, nah, nah!

Oh, it ain't right with love to share,
When you find he doesn't care for you.
It ain't wise to need someone,
As much as I depended on you.
Ooh.

Ah, it's a heartache,
Nothin' but a heartache:
Love him till your arms break,
Then he lets you down.

(Oh, it's a heartache,)
Oh, it's a fool's game,
(Nothin' but a heartache:)
Standing in the cold rain,
(Standing in the cold rain.)
Feelin' like a clown.

(It's a heartache,)
It's a heartache,
(Nothin' but a heartache:)
Love him till your arms break,
(Love him till your arms break.)
Ah, then he lets you down.
Oh, yeah, down.

Don't Speak -- No Doubt

2011-11-14T21:07:00.001-08:00

You and me
We used to be together
Everyday together always
I really feel
That I'm losing my best friend
I can't believe
This could be the end
It looks as though you're letting go
And if it's real

So please stop explaining
Don't tell me cause it hurts
Don't speak
I know what you're thinking
I don't need your reasons

Our memories
Well, they can be inviting
But some are altogether
Mighty frightening
As we die, both you and I
With my head in my hands
I sit and cry

Don't speak
I know just what you're saying
So please stop explaining
Don't tell me cause it hurts (no, no, no)
Don't speak
I know what you're thinking
I don't need your reasons

Don't speak
I know just what you're saying
So please stop explaining
Don't tell me cause it hurts (no, no)
Don't speak
I know what you're thinking
I don't need your reasons
Don't tell me cause it hurts
Don't tell me cause it hurts!
I know what you're saying
So please stop explaining

Don't speak,
don't speak,
don't speak, no

And I don't need your reasons
I know you're good,
I know you're good,
I know you're real good
Oh, la la la la la la La la la la la la
Don't, Don't, uh-huh Hush, hush darlin'
Hush, hush darlin' Hush, hush
don't tell me tell me cause it hurts
Hush, hush darlin' Hush, hush darlin'
Hush, hush don't tell me tell me cause it hurts

Here's To The Meantime -- Grace Potter and the Nocturnals

2011-11-14T11:08:00.001-08:00

You're running me ragged
I don't do the things I should
If the devil made a fire
You'd be the wood

I've just got one question
Answer me if you could
How can so much trouble
Look so god damn good?

Look at the way that you've been living
Look at the love you should be giving
Look at what tomorrow left behind
Look at at all the life that you've been missing
Look at the girl you could be kissing
Look at what happened in the meantime
Oh, you gotta get yourself back home
Before I find you and kindly remind you, yeah

So come sit down beside me
With a dollar and a dime
And we'll drink away our fortunes
Here's to the meantime

Look at the way that you've been living
Look at the love you could be giving
Look at what tomorrow left behind
Look at at all the life that you've been missing
Look at the girl you should be kissing
Look at what happened in the meantime
Oh, oh, you gotta get yourself back home
Before I find you and kindly remind you, baby yeah

Look at the way that you've been living
Look at the love you should be giving
Look at what tomorrow left behind
Look at at all the life that you've been missing
Look at the girl you could be kissing
Look at what happened in the meantime
Oh, you gotta get yourself back home
Before I find you and kindly remind you, baby

I Won't Say (I'm in love) -- Disney's Hercules

2011-11-13T19:55:00.001-08:00

[Meg:]
If there's a prize for rotten judgement
I guess I've already won that
No man is worth the aggravation
That's ancient history, been there, done that!

[Muses:]
Who'd'ya think you're kiddin'?
He's the Earth and heaven to you
Try to keep it hidden
Honey, we can see right through you
Girl, ya can't conceal it
We know how ya feel and
Who you're thinking of

[Meg:]
No chance, no way
I won't say it, no, no

[Muses:]
You swoon, you sigh
why deny it? Uh-oh

[Meg:]
It's too cliche
I won't say I'm in love

I thought my heart had learned its lesson
It feels so good when you start out
My head is screaming get a grip, girl
Unless you're dying to cry your heart out
Oh

[Muses:]
You keep on denying
Who you are and how you're feeling
Baby, we're not buying
Hon, we saw ya hit the ceiling
Face it like a grown-up
When ya gonna own up?
That ya got, got, got it bad

[Meg:]
No chance, no way
I won't say it, no, no

[Muses:]
Give up, give in
Check the grin you're in love

[Meg:]
This scene won't play,

[Muses:]
You're doin flips read our lips
You're in love

[Meg:]
You're way off base

[Muses:]
Girl, don't be proud
It's O.K. you're in love

[Meg:]
Oh
At least out loud,
I won't say I'm in love

Courage -- Orianthi

2011-11-12T20:17:00.001-08:00

Take all my vicious words
And turn them into something good

Take all my preconceptions
And let the truth be understood

Take all my prized possessions
Leave only what I need

Take all my pieces of doubt
And let me be what's underneath

Courage is when you're afraid,
But you keep on moving anyway
Courage is when you're in pain,
But you keep on living anyway

We all have excuses why
Living in fear something in us dies
Like a bird with broken wings
It's not how high he flies,
But the song he sings

Courage is when you're afraid,
But you keep on moving anyway
Courage is when you're in pain,
But you keep on living anyway

It's not how many times you've been knocked down
It's how many times you get back up

Courage is when you've lost your way,
But you find your strength anyway

Courage is when you're afraid
Courage is when it all seems grey
Courage is when you make a change,
And you keep on living anyway
You keep on moving anyway
You keep on giving anyway
You keep on loving anyway

1,000 Ships -- Rachel Platten

2011-11-12T15:59:00.001-08:00

I'd go beyond our fighting borders if you needed that from me
I'd march with decorated soldiers to get your pretty eyes to see
Well I would bring your morning coffee then I'd wrap you up in me
I'd kiss your belly and your shoulders, cover blankets on our feet

So slow down, there's some kind of blessing here
But you have missed your cue

So keep your eyes set on the horizon
On the line where blue meets blue
And I'd bet that silver lining,
Well I know it'd find you soon

Cause I have sailed a 1000 ships to you,
But my messages don't seem to make it through

Well I would bring your morning coffee then I'd wrap you up in me
I'd kiss your belly and your shoulders, cover blankets on our feet

But slow down, there's some sort of blessing here
But you've gone and missed your cue

So keep your eyes set on the horizon
On the line where blue meets blue
And I'd bet that silver lining,
Well I know it'd find you soon

Cause I have sailed a 1000 ships to you,
But my messages don't seem to make it through

Well money and fame they are a losing game
And I know those pretty actresses are calling your name,
But I'll be here waiting,
I'll always be the same
If you'd let me in again...

So keep your eyes set on the horizon
On the line where blue meets blue
And I'd bet that silver lining,
Well I know it'd find you soon

Keep your eyes set on the horizon
On the line where blue meets blue
And I'd bet that silver lining,
Well I know it'd find you soon

Cause I have sailed a 1000 ships to you,
But my messages don't seem to make it through

Fragile Heart -- Jewel

2011-11-07T22:05:00.000-08:00

If you want my heart
You have to promise not to tear it apart
'Cause my heart
Has been hurt a lot
And it always seems
Love is not sweet, like in dreams
Something falls through
But I don't want that to happen to me and you

So be
Careful, warning
Fragile heart
So be
Careful, warning
Fragile heart

Last Saturday
We ate dinner at your parents' place
Last Saturday, you said
How you feel will not go away
Well, all the fishes in the sea
They could not be happier than me

So be
Careful, warning
Fragile heart
So be
Careful, warning
Fragile heart

Only fools believe that
Nothing changes, nothing leaves
But I need to believe that we at least
Will have some dignity
'Cause everything changes
Nothing stays the same
But that's no excuse to be casual
Or to place the blame
You have to be careful with me

So be (So be)
Careful, warning
Fragile heart
So be (So be)
Careful (careful), warning
Fragile heart
So be (won't you be?)
Careful, warning
Fragile heart

All Will Be Well -- the Gabe Dixon Band

2011-11-06T21:50:00.001-08:00

The new day dawns,
And I am practicing my purpose once again.
It is fresh and it is fruitful if I win but if I lose,
Oooooo I don't know.
I will be tired but I will turn and I will go,
Only guessing til I get there then I'll know,
Oh oh oh I will know.

All the children walking home past the factories
Could see the light that's shining in my window as I write this song to you.
All the cars running fast along the interstate
Can feel the love that radiates
Illuminating what I know is true,
All will be well.
Even after all the promises you've broken to yourself,
All will be well.
You can ask me how but only time will tell.

The winter's cold,
But the snow still lightly settles on the trees.
And a mess is still a moment I can seize until I know,
That all will be well.
Even though sometimes this is hard to tell,
And the fight is just as frustrating as hell
All will be well.

All the children walking home past the factories,
Could see the light that's shining in my window as I write this song to you.
All the cars running fast along the interstate
Can feel the love that radiates
Illuminating what I know is true
All will be well.
Even after all the promises you've broken to yourself
All will be well.
You can ask me how but only time will tell.

Keep it up and don't give up
And chase your dreams and you will find
All in time.

All the children walking home past the factories
Could see the light that's shining in my window as I write this song to you.
All the cars running fast along the interstate
Can feel the love that radiates
Illuminating what I know is true,
All will be well.
Even after all the promises you've broken to yourself,
All will be well.
You can ask me how but only time will tell.

All will be well.
Even after all the promises you've broken to yourself,
All will be well.
You can ask me how but only time will tell.

You can ask me how but only time will tell.

Oxygen -- Colbie Caillat

2011-11-03T20:02:00.000-07:00

I came apart inside a world made of angry people
I found a boy who had a dream
Making everyone smile
He was sunshine
I fell over my feet
Like bricks underwater

And how am I supposed to tell you how I feel
I need oxygen
Oh baby if I was your lady
I would make you happy
I'm never gonna leave, never gonna leave
Oh baby I will be your lady
I am going crazy for you

And so I found a state of mind
Where I could be speechless
I had to try it for a while
To figure out this feeling
This felt so right
Pull me upside down to a place
Where you've been waiting

How am I supposed to tell you how I feel
I need oxygen
Oh baby if I was your lady
I would make you happy
I'm never gonna leave,
Never gonna leave
Oh baby I will be your lady
I am going crazy for you

And you don't wanna keep me waiting
Staring at my fingers feeling like a fool

Oh baby I will be your lady
I will make you happy
I'm never gonna leave,
Never gonna leave
Oh baby I will be your lady
I'm going crazy, yeah-oh oh oh

Tell me what you want,
Baby tell me what you need
Anything I ask baby give it to me
Baby give it to me, give it to me

I came apart inside a world made of angry people
I found a boy who had a dream
Making everyone smile

Catch Me -- Demi Lovato

2011-10-29T19:11:00.000-07:00

Before I fall
Too fast
Kiss me quick
But make it last
So I can see
How badly this will hurt me
When you say goodbye
Keep it sweet
Keep it slow
Let the future pass
And don't let go
But tonight
I could fall too soon
Under this beautiful moonlight

But you're so hypnotizing
You've got me laughing while I sing
You've got me smiling in my sleep
And I can see this unraveling
Your love is where I'm falling
But please don't catch me...

See this heart
Won't settle down
Like a child running
Scared from a clown
I'm terrified
Of what you do
My stomach screams
Just when I look at you
Run far away
So I can breathe
Even though you're
Far from suffocating me
I can't set my hopes too high
'Cause every hello ends with a
goodbye

But you're so hypnotizing
You've got me laughing while I sing
You've got me smiling in my sleep
And I can see this unraveling
Your love is where I'm falling
But please don't catch me...

So now you see
Why I'm scared
I can't open up my heart
without a care
But here I go
It's what I feel
And for the first time in my
life I know it's real

But you're so hypnotizing
You've got me laughing while I sing
You've got me smiling in my sleep
And I can see this unraveling
Your love is where I'm falling
So please don't catch me
If this is love please don't break me
I'm giving up so
Just catch me

Balloon -- Sara Haze

2011-10-27T19:32:00.000-07:00

When it gets hard and I cannot cope
Reeling myself out on a long, thin rope
Floating away in this lightest breeze
To a wild blue flight of fantasy

My feet leave this earth so easily
Just turn around; say goodbye to me
When the smallest things start going wrong
There I am, going, going, gone

Oh no,
Here I go

Hold me down; I'm a balloon
And I'll fly away
If you don't hold me down; I'm a balloon
And I wanna stay

The hand I need on my string is you
Quiet and steady and ready to
Pull me to earth when I'm losing touch
Reel myself in, what I love so much

Oh no, Here I go

Hold me down; I'm a balloon
And I'll fly away
If you don't hold me down; I'm a balloon
And I'll never stay
Here on the ground; I'm a balloon
And I'll fly away
Please hold me down; down here with you
Cause I wanna stay

Hmmm
Ooo, yeahhh, ooo

Oh no, Here I Come

(I'm a, a balloon) Hold me down; I'm a balloon
And I'll fly away
Hold me down; I'm a balloon
And I'll never stay
Here on the ground; I'm a balloon
Fly away
Please hold me down; with you
Cause I wanna stay

Say It Again -- Natasha Bedingfield

2011-10-22T21:47:00.000-07:00

No need to translate,
'cause my eyes give me away,
Even though my lips don't say..

This should be so easy,
But my head gets in the way,
All the things that I want to tell you.

You're the most perfect yet,
Most definitely that i've met,
And I wonder if you know that's how I feel, about you.
I hope you know..

'cause I have so much love, for you.
Do with it what you will..
And I have nothing more, to prove.
Say to me what you will..
Say, say it again.

Not enough lovers, in life to go around
But there's you and there's me,
If we don't shut it out.. mmmm..
It's not hard to let go,
Enough to let me in.
If it's meant to be,
It can only be good.

You're the most perfect fit,
Most definitely that i've met,
And I hope that you feel the same way too
About me.. just let me know..

'cause I have so much love for you,
Do with it what you will..
And I have nothing more to prove.
Say to me what you will..
Say, say it again..

Can you take it from me?
If I give, can you receive?
I'm reaching out,
Giving everything.
I give you my heart, I give you my soul,
I give you it all..

'cause I have so much love for you,
Do with it what you will..
And I have nothing more to prove.
Say to me what you will..
Say, say it again..

Magic -- Colbie Caillat

2011-10-19T19:36:00.000-07:00

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

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

Yeah, oh I need you

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

All I see is your face
All I need is your touch
Wake me up with your lips
Come at me from up above

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

And all I see is your face
All I need is your touch
Wake me up with your lips
Come at me from up above

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

Until You Got Love -- Jon McLaughlin

2011-10-19T19:14:00.000-07:00

Fourth floor,
lonely Juanita,
sits there staring at the screen,
types in
can anybody tell me what it all means,
tick-tock waitin' for an answer
it's no use and all at once to her suprise,
she gets one reply,

Until you got love,
you know you got nothin',
you're missing that something
that's gonna set you free,
until you got love,
you'll always be running,
love is that one thing
that everybody needs,

Sunday, no one's at the office,
just waiting at his fathers desk,
workin' trying to fill the shoes that his dad left
'dear son' he finds in a letter:
'please try your best to learn from my mistakes,
you know work can wait',

Until you got love,
you know you got nothin',
your missin that something
that's gonna set you free,
until you got love,
you'll always be running,
love is that one thing
that everybody needs,

There's nothing cool in this room,
nothing new in what I'm saying,
but sometimes the truth is what it is,
so why should I apologize for looking for
a better way to live, way to live

Until you got love,
you know you got nothin',
your missin that something
that's gonna set you free,
until you got love,
you'll always be running,
love is that one thing
that everybody needs

Until you got love,
you know you got nothin',
your missin that something
that's gonna set you free,
until you got love,
you'll always be running,
love is that one thing
that everybody needs

How To Touch A Girl -- JoJo

2011-10-18T22:02:00.000-07:00

Mmmmm

I think I could like you
I already do
Feelings can grow but
They can go away too
You're takin my hand
Lookin into my eyes
Don't be in a rush to
Get me tonight

Feel somethin happenin
Could this be a spark?
To satisfy me baby
Gotta satisfy my heart

Do you know how to touch a girl?
If you want me so much
First I have to know
Are you thoughtful and kind?
Do you care what's on my mind?
Or am I just for show?
You'll go far in this world
If you know how to touch a girl

Do you know how to touch, know how to touch a girl?
Do you know how to touch, know how to touch a girl?

I think I could like you
But I keep holding back
Cause I can't seem to tell
If you're fiction or fact
Show me you can laugh
Show me you can cry
Show me who you really are
Deep down inside

Do you feel somethin happenin?
Could this be for real?
I don't know right now but tonight we'll reveal

Do you know how to touch a girl?
If you want me so much
First I have to know
Are you thoughtful and kind?
Do you care what's on my mind?
Or am I just for show?
You'll go far in this world
If you know how to touch a girl

Bring me some flowers
Conversation for hours
To see if we really connect
And baby if we do
Ooh I'll be givin all my love to you
Ohh

Do you know how to touch a girl?
If you want me so much
First I have to know
Are you thoughtful and kind?
Do you care what's on my mind?
Or am I just for show?
You'll go far in this world
If you know how to touch a girl

Do you know how to touch, know how to touch a girl? (Yeah, yeah)
Do you know how to touch, know how to touch a girl?

You'll go far in this world
If you know how to touch a girl

Hold My Heart -- Sara Bareilles

2011-10-18T15:16:00.001-07:00

I never meant to be the one to let you down
If anything, I thought I saw myself going first
I didn't know how to stick around
How to see anybody but me be getting hurt

I keep remembering the summer night
And the conversation breaking up the mood
I didn't want to tell you you were right
Like the season changing, oh, I felt it too

Does anybody know how to hold my heart
How to hold my heart?
'Cause I don't want to let go, let go, let go too soon

I want to tell you so before the sun goes dark
How to hold my heart
'Cause I don't want to let go, let go, let go of you

I'm not the kind to try to tell you lies
But the truth is you've been hiding from it too
I see the end sneaking in behind your eyes
Saying everything no words could ever do

Does anybody know how to hold my heart
How to hold my heart?
'Cause I don't want to let go, let go, let go too soon

I want to tell you so before the sun goes dark
How to hold my heart
'Cause I don't want to let go, let go, let go of you

Is anybody listening?
'Cause I'm crying
Is anybody listening?

Does anybody know how to hold my heart
How to hold my heart?
'Cause I don't want to let go, let go, let go too soon

I want to tell you so before the sun goes dark
How to hold my heart
'Cause I don't want to let go, let go, let go of you

Fairytale -- Sara Bareilles

2011-09-18T22:20:00.000-07:00

Cinderella's on her bedroom floor
She's got a crush on the guy at the liquor store
'Cause Mr. Charming don't come home anymore
And she forgets why she came here

Sleeping Beauty's in a foul mood for shame
She says, "None for you, dear Prince, I'm tired today
I'd rather sleep my whole life away
Than have you keep me from dreaming"

'Cause I don't care for your fairytales
You're so worried 'bout the maiden
Though you know she's only waiting
On the next best thing, next best thing

Snow White is doing dishes again
'Cause what else could you do with seven itty-bitty men?
Sends them to bed and she calls up a friend
Says, "Would you meet me at midnight?"

The tall blond lets out a cry of despair
Says, "Would've cut it myself if I knew men could climb hair
I'll have to find another tower somewhere
Keep away from the windows"

'Cause I don't care for your fairytales
You're so worried 'bout the maiden
Though you know she's only waiting
On the next best thing, next best thing

Once upon a time in a faraway kingdom
Man made up a story, said that I should believe him
Go and tell your white knight that he's handsome in hindsight
But I don't want the next best thing

So I sing, I hold my head down
And I break these walls 'round me
Can't take no more of your fairytale love

I don't care for your fairytales
You're so worried 'bout the maiden
Though you know she's only waiting
On the next best thing

I don't care, I don't care
You worry 'bout the maiden
Though you know she's only waiting
Spent her whole life being graded
On the sanctity of patience

And a dumb appreciation
But the story needs some mending
And a better happy ending
'Cause I don't want the next best thing
No, no, I don't want the next best thing

Weightless -- All Time Low

2011-09-18T22:12:00.000-07:00

Manage me, I'm a mess
Turn a page, I'm a book half unread
I wanna be laughed at, laughed with, just because
I wanna feel weightless and that should be enough

But I'm stuck in this fucking rut
Waiting on a second-hand pick-me-up
And I'm over getting older

If I could just find the time
Then I would never let another day go by
I'm over getting old

Maybe it's not my weekend but it's gonna be my year
And I'm so sick of watching while the minutes pass as I go nowhere
And this is my reaction to everything I fear
'Cause I've been going crazy, I don't wanna waste another minute here

Make believe that I impress
That every word, by design, turns a head
I wanna feel reckless, wanna live it up just because
I wanna feel weightless 'cause that would be enough

If I could just find the time
Then I would never let another day go by
I'm over getting old

Maybe it's not my weekend but it's gonna be my year
And I'm so sick of watching while the minutes pass as I go nowhere
And this is my reaction to everything I fear
'Cause I've been going crazy, I don't wanna waste another minute here

This could be all I've waited for
(I've waited, I've waited for)
And this could be everything I don't wanna dream anymore

Maybe it's not my weekend but it's gonna be my year
And I've been going crazy, I'm stuck in here

Maybe it's not my weekend but it's gonna be my year
(It's gonna be my year)
And I'm so sick of watching while the minutes pass as I go nowhere
(Go nowhere)
And this is my reaction to everything I fear
(Everything I fear)
'Cause I've been going crazy, I don't wanna waste another minute here

Any Man Of Mine -- Shania Twain

2011-09-17T23:19:00.000-07:00

This is what a woman wants...
Any man of mine better be proud of me
Even when I'm ugly he still better love me
And I can be late for a date that's fine
But he better be on time

Any man of mine'll say it fits just right
When last year's dress is just a little too tight
And anything I do or say better be okay
When I have a bad hair day

And if I change my mind
A million times
I wanna hear him say
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah I like it that way

Any man of mine better walk the line
Better show me a teasin' squeezin' pleasin' kinda time
I need a man who knows, how the story goes
He's gotta be a heartbeatin' fine treatin'
Breathtakin' earthquakin' kind
Any man of mine

Well any man of mine better disagree
When I say another woman's lookin' better than me
And when I cook him dinner and I burn it black
He better say, mmmm, I like it like that yeah

And if I changed my mind
A million times
I wanna hear him say
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah I like it that way

Any man of mine better walk the line
Better show me a teasin' squeezin' pleasin' kinda time
I need a man who knows, how the story goes
He's gotta be a heartbeatin' fine treatin'
Breathtakin' earthquakin' kind
Any man of mine

Let me hear you say yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah I like it that way

Any man of mine better walk the line
Better show me a teasin' squeezin' pleasin' kinda time
I need a man who knows, how the story goes
He's gotta be a heartbeatin' fine treatin'
Breathtakin' earthquakin' kind
Any man of mine

You gotta shimmy shake
Make the earth quake
Kick, turn, stomp, stomp, then you jump
Heel to toe, Do Si Do
'Til your boots wanna break
"Til your feet and your back ache
Keep it movin' 'til you just can't take anymore
Come on everybody on the floor
A-one two, a-three four
Hup two, hum
If you wanna be a man of mine, that's right
This is what a woman wants...

More Than Anyone -- Gavin DeGraw

2011-09-09T17:54:00.000-07:00

You need a friend
I'll be around

Don't let this end
Before I see you again

What can I say to convince you
To change your mind, of me?

I'm going to love you more than anyone
I'm going to hold you closer than before
And when I kiss your soul, your body'll be free
I'll be free for you anytime
I'm going to love you more than anyone

Look in my eyes, what do you see?
Not just the color
Look inside of me

Tell me all you need and I will try
I will try

I'm going to love you more than anyone
I'm going to hold you closer than before
And when I kiss your soul, your body'll be free
I'll be free for you anytime
I'm going to love you more than anyone

Free for you, whenever you need
We'll be free together baby
Free together baby

I'm going to love you more than anyone
I'm going to hold you closer than before
And when I kiss your soul, your body'll be free
I'll be free for you anytime

I'm going to love you more than anyone
I'm going to love you more than anyone

One Sweet Love -- Sara Bareilles

2011-08-24T21:20:00.000-07:00

Just about the time the shadows call
I undress my mind and dare you to follow
Paint a portrait of my mystery
Only close my eyes and you are here with me
A nameless face to think I see
To sit and watch the waves with me till they're gone
A heart I'd swear I'd recognize is made out of
My own devices....
Could I be wrong?

The time that I've taken
I pray is not wasted
Have I already tasted my piece of one sweet love?

Sleepless nights you creep inside of me
Paint your shadows on the breath that we share
You take more than just my sanity
You take my reason not to care.
No ordinary wings I'll need
The sky itself will carry me back to you
The things I dream that I can do I'll open up
The moon for you
Just come down soon

The time that I've taken
I pray is not wasted
Have I already tasted my piece of one sweet love?
Ready and waiting for a heart worth the breaking
But I'd settle for an honest mistake in the name of
One sweet love.

Savor the sorrow to soften the pain sip on
The southern rain
As I do, I don't look don't touch don't do anything
But hope that there is a you.

The earth that is the space between,
I'd banish it from under me...to get to you.
Your unexpected love provides my solitary's
Suicide...oh I wish I knew

The time that I've taken
I pray is not wasted
Have I already tasted my piece of one sweet love?
Ready and waiting for a heart worth the breaking
But I'd settle for an honest mistake in the name of
One sweet love.
One sweet love.

Consider Me Gone -- Reba McEntire

2011-08-01T17:24:00.000-07:00

Every time I turn the conversation to something deeper than the weather I can feel you all but shuttin' down.
And when I need an explanation for the silence you just tell me you don't wanna talk about it now.

What you're not saying is coming in loud and clear we're at a crossroads here...

If I'm not the one thing you can't stand to lose
If I'm not that arrow to the heart of you
If you don't get drunk on my kiss
If you think you can do better than this then I guess we're done
Let's not drag this on
Consider me gone

With you I've always been wide open like a window or an ocean. There is nothing I've ever tried to hide.
So when you leave me not knowin' where you're goin', I start thinkin' that we're lookin', we're lookin' at goodbye.

How about a strong shot of honesty? Don't you owe that to me?...

If I'm not the one thing you can't stand to lose
If I'm not that arrow to the heart of you
If you don't get drunk on my kiss
If you think you can do better than this then I guess we're done
Let's not drag this on
Consider me gone.

Consider me a memory.
Consider me the past.
Consider me a smile in an old photograph, someone who used to make you laugh.

If I'm not the one thing you can't stand to lose
If I'm not that arrow to the heart of you
Then I guess we're done let's not drag this on.

Consider me gone.
Consider me gone.
Consider me gone.
Just consider me gone.

Not Coming Home -- Maroon 5

2011-07-21T17:14:00.000-07:00

When you refuse me
You confuse me
What makes you think I'll let you in again
Think again my friend
Go on misuse me and abuse me
I'll come out stronger in the end

And does it make you sad
To find yourself alone
And does it make you mad
To find that I have grown
I'll bet it hurts so bad
To see the strength that I have shown

When you answer the door pick up the phone
You wont find me cause I'm not coming home

You don't know how much this hurts me
To say these things that I don't want to say
But have to say them anyway
I would do anything to end your suffering
But you would rather walk away

And does it make you sad
To find yourself alone
And does it make you mad
To find that I have grown
I'll bet it hurts so bad
To see the strength that I have shown

When you answer the door pick up the phone
You wont find me cause I'm not coming home

When you answer the door pick up the phone
You wont find me cause I'm not coming home

When you answer the door pick up the phone
You wont find me cause I'm not coming home

What Might Have Been -- Little Texas

2011-07-16T10:41:00.000-07:00

Sure I think about you now and then
But it's been a long long time
I've got a good life now, I've moved on
So when you cross my mind

I try not to think about
What might have been
'Cause that was then
And we have taken different roads
We can't go back again
There's no use giving in
And there's no way to know
What might have been

We could sit and talk about this all night long
And wonder why we didn't last
Yes they might be the best days
We will ever know
But we'll have to leave them in the past

So try not to think about
What might have been
'Cause that was then
And we have taken different roads
We can't go back again
There's no use giving in
And there's no way to know
What might have been

That same old look in your eyes
It's a beautiful night
I'm so tempted to stay
But too much time has gone by
We should just say goodbye
And turn and walk away

And try not to think about
What might have been
'Cause that was then
And we have taken different roads
We can't go back again
There's no use giving in
And there's no way to know
What might have been

No we'll never know
What might have been

Ready When You Are -- Trapt

2011-05-23T22:16:00.000-07:00

Are you having trouble keeping up?
Seeing this thing through
I want to know who you're running from
Me or you?
You're too confused to open up
Feel the way I do
I want to know who you're thinking of
'Cause I really have no clue

Another game of charades
Don't you know everybody plays?
I don't want to lose to you that way
Maybe we'll be different this time around
Maybe we'll be different, I don't know
Don't want to strangle this
So I'm holding back for now

Calm down, don't take it too far
I know only time can heal scars
So I'm ready when you are (when you are)
I'm ready when you are
Don't want any false starts
I can do without the time apart
So I'm ready when you are (when you are)
I'm ready when you are

Are you having trouble keeping up?
You know that I will wait
I wonder if it's good enough to make you stay
You're too confused to open up
You don't know what to say
Well, you can tell me if you think it's love
I won't be far away

Another game of charades
Don't you know everybody plays?
I don't want to lose to you that way
Maybe we'll be different this time around
Maybe we'll be different, I don't know
Don't want to strangle this
So I'm holding back for now

Calm down, don't take it too far
I know only time can heal scars
So I'm ready when you are (when you are)
I'm ready when you are
Tied down, don't want any false starts
I can do without the time apart
So I'm ready when you are (when you are)
I'm ready when you are

I want to know if you're thinking of me
I'll be counting the hours even though I know I'm free
Too soon to take a chance
No more questions left to ask
I could be anything, but the one thing
I'm not sure you want to be

Calm down, don't take it too far
I know only time can heal scars
So I'm ready when you are (when you are)
I'm ready when you are
Don't want any false starts
I can do without the time apart
I'm ready when you are (when you are)
I'm ready when you are

Calm down, don't take it too far
I know only time can heal scars
So I'm ready when you are (when you are)
I'm ready when you are
Calm down, don't want any false starts
I can do without the time apart
So I'm ready when you are (when you are)
I'm ready when you are

Calm down, I'm ready when you are
Calm down, I'm ready when you are
Calm down, I'm ready when you are
Calm down, I'm ready when you are

Like We Used To -- A Rocket to the Moon

2011-05-23T21:57:00.000-07:00

I can feel her breath as she's sleeping next to me
Sharing pillows and cold feet
She can feel my heart, fell asleep to its beat
Under blankets and warm sheets

If only I could be in that bed again
If only it were me instead of him

Does he watch your favorite movies?
Does he hold you when you cry?
Does he let you tell him all your favorite parts?
When you've seen it a million times

Does he sing to all your music
While you dance to "Purple Rain"?
Does he do all these things
Like I used to?

14 months and 7 days ago
Oh, I know you know how we felt about that night
Just your skin against the window
But you took it slow and we both know

It should have been me inside that car
It should have have been me instead of him in the dark

Does he watch your favorite movies?
Does he hold you when you cry?
Does he let you tell him all your favorite parts
When you've seen it a million times?

Does he sing to all your music
While you dance to 'Purple Rain'?
Does he do all these things
Like I used to?

I know, love
(Well, I'm a sucker for that feeling)
Happens all the time, love
(I always end up feeling cheated)
You're on my mind, love
(Oh darling, I know I'm not needed)
That happens all the time, love, yeah

Will he love you like I loved you?
Will he tell you everyday?
Will he make you feel like you're invincible
With every word he'll say?

Can you promise me if this was right?
Don't throw it all away

Can you do all these things?
Will you do all these things
Like we used to?
Oh, like we used to

If No One Will Listen -- Kelly Clarkson

2011-02-08T23:54:00.000-08:00

Maybe no one told you, there is strength in your tears
And so you fight to keep from pouring out
But what if you unlock the gate that keeps your secret soul
Do you think that there's enough you might drown?

If no one will listen, if you decide to speak
If no one is left standing after the bombs explode
If no one wants to look at you for what you really are
I will be here, still

No one can tell you, where you alone must go
There's no telling what you'll find there
And God I know the fear that eats away at your bones
It's screaming every step just stay here

If no one will listen, if you decide to speak
If no one is left standing after the bombs explode
If no one wants to look at you for what you really are
I will be here, still

If you find your fists are raw and red from beating yourself down
If your legs have given out under the weight
If you find that you've been settling for a world of gray
So you wouldn't have to face down your own hate

If no one will listen, if you decide to speak
If no one is left standing after the bombs explode
If no one wants to look at you for what you really are
I will be here, still

If no one will listen, if you decide to speak
If no one is left standing after the bombs explode
If no one wants to look at you for what you really are
I will be here, still
I will be here, still

Better In Time -- Leona Lewis

2011-02-04T12:33:00.000-08:00

(there's also a beautiful cover by Boyce Avenue)

It's been the longest winter without you
I didn't know where to turn to
See, somehow I can't forget you
After all that we've been through

Going, coming, thought I heard a knock
Who's there? No one
Thinking that I deserve it
Now I realize that I really didn't know
If you didn't notice, you mean everything
Quickly I'm learning to love again
All I know is I'm gonna be okay

Thought I couldn't live without you
It's gonna hurt when it heals, too
It'll all get better in time
And even though I really love you
I'm gonna smile 'cause I deserve to
It'll all get better in time

I couldn't turn on the TV, no
Without something there to remind me
Was it all that easy
To just put aside your feelings?

If I'm dreaming, don't wanna laugh
Hurt my feelings, but that's the path
I believe in
And I know that time will heal it
If you didn't notice, boy, you meant everything
Quickly I'm learning to love again
All I know is I'm gonna be okay

Thought I couldn't live without you
It's gonna hurt when it heals, too
It'll all get better in time
And even though I really love you
I'm gonna smile 'cause I deserve to
It'll all get better in time

Since there's no more you and me
It's time I let you go
So I can be free
And live my life how it should be
No matter how hard it is, I'll be fine without you
Yes I will

Thought I couldn't live without you
It's gonna hurt when it heals, too
It'll all get better in time
And even though I really loved you
I'm gonna smile 'cause I deserve to
It'll all get better in time

Thought I couldn't live without you
It's gonna hurt when it heals, too
It'll all get better in time
And even though I really loved you
I'm gonna smile 'cause I deserve to
It'll all get better in time

On My Way -- Boyce Avenue

2011-01-31T20:22:00.000-08:00

I wasn't there the moment you first learned to breathe
But I'm on my way
On my way
I wasn't there the moment you got off your knees
But I'm on my way
On my way

Lay down
And come alive in all you've found
All you're meant to be
And for now
We'll wait until the morning light
And close our eyes to see
Just close your eyes to see

A tear must have formed in my eye
When you had your first kiss
But I'm on my way
On my way
So leave a space deep inside for everything I'll miss
'Cause I'm on my way
On my way

Lay down
And come alive in all you've found
All you're meant to be
And for now
We'll wait until the morning light
And close our eyes to see
Just close your eyes to see

And when you feel no saving grace
Well I'm on my way
On my way
And when you're bound to second place
Well I'm on my way
On my way

So don't believe it's all in vain
'Cause I'm on my way
On my way
The light at the end is worth the pain
'Cause I'm on my way
On my way

I'll be there the morning you come out in white
'Cause I'm on my way
On my way

One Day You Will -- Lady Antebellum

2011-01-31T20:12:00.000-08:00

You feel like you're falling backwards
Like you're slippin' through the cracks
Like no one would even notice
If you left this town and never came back
You walk outside and all you see is rain
You look inside and all you feel is pain
And you can't see it now

But down the road the sun is shining
In every cloud there's a silver lining
Just keep holding on (just keep holding on)
And every heartache makes you stronger
But it won't be much longer
You'll find love, you'll find peace
And the you you're meant to be
I know right now that's not the way you feel
But one day you will

You wake up every morning and ask yourself
What am I doing here, anyway
With the weight of all those disappointments
Whispering in your ear
You're just barely hanging by a thread
You wanna scream but you're down to your last breath
And you don't know it yet

But down the road the sun is shining
In every cloud there's a silver lining
Just keep holding on (just keep holding on)
And every heartache makes you stronger
But it won't be much longer
You'll find love, you'll find peace
And the you you're meant to be
I know right now that's not the way you feel
But one day you will

Find the strength to rise above
You will
Find just what you're made of, you're made of

Down the road the sun is shining
In every cloud there's a silver lining
Just keep holding on (just keep holding on)
And every heartache makes you stronger
But it won't be much longer
You'll find love, you'll find peace
And the you you're meant to be
I know right now that's not the way you feel
I know right now that's not the way you feel
But one day you will
One day you will
Oh, one day you will

A Little Bit Stronger -- Sara Evans

2011-01-30T21:06:00.000-08:00

Woke up late today and I still feel the sting of the pain
But I brushed my teeth anyway
I got dressed through the mess and put a smile on my face
I got a little bit stronger

Riding in the car to work and I'm trying to ignore the hurt
So I turned on the radio, stupid song made me think of you
I listened to it for a minute, but then I changed it
I'm getting a little bit stronger, just a little bit stronger

And I'm done hoping that we could work it out
I'm done with how it feels, spinning my wheels
Letting you drag my heart around
And, oh, I'm done thinking that you could ever change

I know my heart will never be the same
But I'm telling myself I'll be okay
Even on my weakest days
I get a little bit stronger

Doesn't happen overnight, but you turn around
And a month's gone by, and you realize you haven't cried
I'm not giving you an hour or a second or another minute longer
I'm busy getting stronger

And I'm done hoping that we can work it out
I'm done with how it feels, spinning my wheels
Letting you drag my heart around
And, oh, I'm done thinking, that you could ever change

I know my heart will never be the same
But I'm telling myself I'll be okay
Even on my weakest days
I get a little bit stronger
I get a little bit stronger

Getting along without you, baby
I'm better off without you, baby
How does it feel without me, baby?
I'm getting stronger without you, baby

And I'm done hoping we could work it out
I'm done with how it feels, spinning my wheels
Letting you drag my heart around
And, oh, I'm done thinking that you could ever change

I know my heart will never be the same
But I'm telling myself I'll be okay
Even on my weakest days
I get a little bit stronger

I get a little bit stronger
Just a little bit stronger
A little bit, a little bit, a little bit stronger
I get a little bit stronger

Things Don't Always Turn Out That Way -- The Calling

2011-01-30T20:26:00.000-08:00

Well he can't sleep at night and he can't do what's right
It was all because she came into his life, yeah
It's a deep obsession, taking up his time

Oh yeah, She's all that he wants, she's all that he needs
She's everything he just won't believe
Take away his doubt, turn him inside out
Then she can see what he's been dying to say
But things don't always turn out that way

And he must confess
All the impure thoughts of his beautiful temptress
Although he keeps it all bottled up inside
Although he keeps it all safe within his mind, oh yeah

She's all that he wants, she's all that he needs
She's everything he just won't believe
Take away his doubt, turn him inside out
Then she can see what he's been dying to say
But things don't always turn out that way

So wipe that smile off your face
Before it gets too late
There's only so much time, yeah
For you to make up your mind

Yeah, She's all that he wants, she's all that he needs
Well she's everything he just won't believe
Take away his doubt, turn him inside out
Then she can see what he's been dying to say

She's all that he needs
She's everything he just won't believe
Take away his doubt, turn him inside out
Then she can see what he's been dying to say
But things don't always turn out that way

Love, things don't always turn out that way
Things don't always turn out that way
Yeah, Things don't always turn out that way

Change Your Mind -- Boyce Avenue

2011-01-30T20:02:00.000-08:00

There you are
With your perfect way
You got that little shine
In your eyes

To hear one word
Would make my day
But there's no room for me
In your life

Oooooh
You got me down on my knees
Oooooh
And in my mind I can see
How perfect everything could be
But you won't give us a try

But if I could change your mind
How would you want me?
Would you say you need me?
'Cause I need you now

I try to move on
But your perfect way
Has got this little child
Asking why?

But this world keeps spinning
As my heart stops beating
Is there still no room inside?

Oooooh
You got me down on my knees
Oooooh
And in my mind I can see
How perfect everything could be
But you won't give us a try

But if I could change your mind
How would you want me?
Would you say you need me?
'Cause I need you now

If I could change your mind
(Please tell me I'm not the lonely one)
(Please help me believe that I'm the only one)
If I could change your mind

But if I could change your mind
How would you want me?
Would you say you need me?
'Cause I need you now

And if I could change your mind
How would you hold me?
Would you stay forever?
Or just leave me here to drown

Oh and if I could change your mind
(Change your mind)
If I could change your mind
(Change your mind)

Dust From The Stars -- Sara Haze

2011-01-30T01:15:00.000-08:00

What gives you the privilege?
Taking me to the universe edge
Returning carefree through the night
On shooting stars
And meteorites

Like a robbery on Jupiter or Mars
You fly away Stealin' my heart
Like taking dust from the stars
Like taking dust from the stars

What gave you the privilege?
Of taking me on an adventure through the mist
To some romantic galaxy
When all along
You could not commit

Like a robbery on Jupiter or Mars
You fly away
Stealin' my heart
Like taking dust from the stars
Like taking dust from the stars

Using all of me till there was nothing left
An emptiness I don't regret
So fly away if you must
And just scatter me
Just scatter me
Just scatter me
Like stardust

What gave you the privilege?
Of taking me to the universe edge...
Like a robbery on Jupiter or Mars
You fly away stealing my heart
Like taking dust from the stars
Like taking dust from the stars
Like taking dust from the stars...
Dust from the stars
