Goin' Home Lyrics - Dan Auerbach
I've spent too long away from home
Did all the things I could have done
Gone are the days of endless thrills
I know I'm not the only one
So long, I'm goin', goin' home
I saw the streets all ripe with jewels
Balconies and the laundry lines
They tried to make me welcome there
But their streets did not feel like mine
I want the sun to hit my face
Through oak trees in the open lot
Forget about the things you want
Be thankful for what all you got
Whatever You Like Lyrics - Anya Marina
Stacks on deck, patron on ice
We can pop bottles all night
Baby, you can have whatever you like
You can have whatever you like, yeah
Late night sex, so wet, so tight
Gas up the jet for you tonight
Baby, you can go wherever you like
You can go wherever you like
Anytime you want to pick up the telephone
You know it ain’t nothin' to drop a couple stacks on you
Wanted you could get it, my dear
Five million dollar home, drop Bentley’s, I swear
Yeah, I want your body, I need your body
Long as you got me, you won’t need nobody
You want it I got it, go get it I buy it
Tell them other broke brothers be quiet
Stacks on deck, patron on ice
We can pop bottles all night
Baby you can have whatever you like
You can have whatever you like, yeah
Shawty you're the hottest, love the way you drop it
Brain so good could'a swore you went to college
Hundred K deposits, vacations in the tropics
Cause everybody know it ain’t trickin if ya got it
Ya need to never ever gotta go to yo wallet
Long as I got rubberband banks in my pocket
Five six, rides with rims and a body kit
You ain’t gotta downgrade you can get what I get
My chick can have whatever she wants
And go in every store and buy anything she wants
And know she ain’t never had a man like that
To buy you anything your heart desire like that
I want you body, I need your body
Long as you got me, you won’t need nobody
You want it I got it, go get it I buy it
Tell them other broke brothers be quiet
I’m talkin’ big boy rides and big boy ice
Let me put this big boy in your life
Whatever you like, whatever you like
Whatever you like, whatever you like
Ready Lyrics - Kelly Clarkson
Frozen, forgetful again
The part where I lose my head
The scene where I'm supposed to speak but instead
I sit and listen again, I'm stuck with these cards I guess
Leaping from this cliff in my thoughts
I fly like the stones in my heart
Drowning in doubt for what reason?
I sit so patiently
Drenched in what you want me to be
I can't escape
I'm ready now, oh I'm ready now
Oh I'm ready now come get me
Fearless with cape in hand
Conquer what I need to mend
Little girls get so broken
But I sit so patiently drenched in what you want me to be
I can't see no escape
Through with golden roads and perfect love
Too much of your mouth is like too much sun
How I burn, how I burn
I was so patient, waiting for my turn
Fly like stone
As I break every bone
Come get me
Use Somebody Lyrics - Kings of Leon
I've been roaming around I was looking down and all I see
Painted faces fill the places I can't reach
You know that I could use somebody
You know that I could use somebody
Someone like you and all you know and how you speak
Countless lovers under cover of the street
You know that I could use somebody
You know that I could use somebody
Someone like you
Off in the night while you live it up I'm off to sleep
Waging wars to shake the poet and the beat
I hope it's gonna make you notice
I hope it's gonna make you notice
Someone like me, someone like me
Someone like me, somebody
I'm ready now, I'm ready now
Someone like you, somebody
The Way I Am Lyrics - Ingrid Michaelson
If you were falling, then I would catch you.
You need a light, I'd find a match.
Cause I love the way you say good morning.
And you take me the way I am.
If you are chilly, here take my sweater.
Your head is aching, I'll make it better.
I'd buy you Rogaine when you start losing all your hair.
Sew on patches to all you tear.
Cause I love you more than I could ever promise.
And you take me the way I am.
Crash This Train Lyrics - Joshua James
I hope you find what you're lookin' for when it all comes runnin' down
I hope you find it painted black on your window or the lips of your lover's frown
Cause if it dies in the cold, when the clouds start to roll
Is it then that your soul starts to bleed?
Have you ever seen the President who killed your wounded child?
Or the man that crashed your sister's plane claimin' he was sent of God?
And when she died in your arms late that night in the dark
Did you pray to your God to come home?
Cause it ain't fair to say that these tracks are the same
So God, if you can hear me crash this train
Said God, if you can hear me crash this train
Now a note to the President, and the Government, and the judges of this place
We're still waitin' for you to bring our troops home, clean up that mess you made
Cause it smells of blood and money across the Iraqi land
But it's so easy here to blind us with your "United We Stand"
And it ain't hard to see that this country ain't free
To the mothers and the fathers who done the best they could
Raisin young'ns in a messed up world, it ain't so understood
So I'll cover my ears and my eyes, pretend that love's the same
Cause with one courts signature, it all becomes erased
And it ain't hard to tell
When it's love we sell
Flume Lyrics - Bon Iver
I am my mother's only one
It's enough
I wear my garment so it shows
Now you know
Only love is all maroon
Gluey feathers on a flume
Sky is womb and she's the moon
I am my mother on the wall, with us all
I move in water, shore to shore
Nothing's more
Only love is all maroon
Lapping lakes like leary loons
Leaving rope burns --
Reddish ruse
Only love is all maroon
Gluey feathers on a flume
Sky is womb and she's the moon
Love Story Lyrics - Taylor Swift
We were both young when I first saw you
I close my eyes and the flashback starts
I’m standing there on a balcony of summer air
I see the lights, see the party, the ball gowns
I see you make your way through the crowd
You say hello, little did I know…
That you were Romeo, you were throwing pebbles
And my daddy said, “Stay away from Juliet”
And I was crying on the staircase
Begging you please don’t go…and I said…
Romeo take me somewhere, we can be alone
I’ll be waiting, all there’s left to do is run
You’ll be the prince and I’ll be the princess
It’s a love story, baby, just say yes
So I sneak out to the garden to see you
We keep quiet, because we’re dead if they knew
So close your eyes, escape this town for a little while
Cause you were Romeo, I was a scarlet letter
And my daddy said, “Stay away from Juliet”
But you were everything to me
I was begging you, please don’t go…and I said
Romeo save me, they’re trying to tell me how to feel
This love is difficult but it’s real
Don’t be afraid, we’ll make it out of this mess
It’s a love story, baby, just say yes
I got tired of waiting, wondering if you were ever coming around
My faith in you was fading when I met you on the outskirts of town
And I said...
Romeo save me, I’ve been feeling so alone
I keep waiting for you but you never come
Is this in my head I don’t know what to think
He kneels to the ground and pulled out a ring and said
Marry me Juliet, you’ll never have to be alone
I love you, and that’s all I really know
I talked to your dad, you’ll pick out the white dress
It’s a love story, baby just say, yes…
We were both young when I first saw you.
Better Together Lyrics - Jack Johnson
There's no combination of words I could put on the back of a postcard
No song that I could sing but I can try for your heart
Our dreams, and they are made out of real things
Like a shoebox of photographs with sepiatone loving
Love is the answer at least for most of the questions in my heart
Like why are we here and where do we go and how come it's so hard?
It's not always easy and sometimes life can be deceiving
I'll tell you one thing it's always better when we're together
It's always better when we're together
Yeah, we'll look at the stars when we're together
Well, it's always better when we're together
Yeah, it's always better when we're together
And all of these moments just might find their way into my dreams tonight
But I know that they'll be gone when the morning light sings
And brings new things for tomorrow night you see
That they'll be gone too, too many things I have to do
But if all of these dreams might find their way into my day to day scene
I'd be under the impression I was somewhere in between
With only two, just me and you, not so many things we got to do
Or places we got to be we'll sit beneath the mango tree now
It's always better when we're together
We're somewhere in between together
Well, it's always better when we're together
Yeah, it's always better when we're together
I believe in memories they look so, so pretty when I sleep
Hey now, and when I wake up, you look so pretty sleeping next to me
But there is not enough time, and there is no, no song I could sing
And there is no, combination of words I could say
But I will still tell you one thing we're better together
I Don't Know Lyrics - Lisa Hannigan
I don't know what you smoke or what countries you've been to
If you speak any other languages other than your own, I'd like to meet you
I don't know if you drive, if you love the ground beneath you
I don't know if you write letters or panic on the phone, I'd like to call you
All the same, if you want to, I am game
I don't know if you can swim or if the sea has any draw for you
If you're better in the morning or when the sun goes down, I'd like to call you
I don't know if you can dance, if the thought ever occurred to you
If you eat what you've been given or push it round your plate, I'd like to cook
for you all the same, I would want to, I am game
If you walk my way and I could keep my head we will feel our way
Through the dark or maybe not, we could shoot it down anyway
I don't know if you read novels or the magazines
If you love the hand that feeds you
I assume that your heart's been bruised I know I'd like to know you
You don't know if I can draw at all or what records I am into
If I sleep like a spoon or rarely at all or maybe you would do?
Or maybe you would do
If you walk our way I will keep my head we will feel our way through the dark
Though I don't know you I think that I would do I don't fall easy at all
One More Day Lyrics - Vast
Have you heard
Have you tried to understand
It's all right
It gets easier with time
How are you
Are you ever coming back
I have changed
And I've realized I was wrong
I was wrong
Now I'll never see your face anymore
Oh my Love
I'd give anything for one more day with you
I'm getting through
I wish you felt the way I do
I have changed
And I've realized I was wrong
I was wrong
Now I'll never see your face anymore
Oh my Love
I'd give anything for one more day with you
The Cure for Pain Lyrics - Jon Foreman
I'm not sure why it always goes downhill
Why broken cisterns never could stay filled
I've spent ten years singing gravity away
But the water keeps on falling from the sky
And here tonight while the stars are blacking out
With every hope and dream I've ever had in doubt
I've spent ten years trying to sing these doubts away
But the water keeps on falling from my eyes
And heaven knows, heaven knows
I've tried to find a cure for the pain
Oh my Lord, to suffer like you do
It would be a lie to run away
So blood is fire pulsing through our veins
We're either riders or fools behind the reins
I've spent ten years trying to sing it all way
But the water keeps on falling from my tries
And heaven knows, heaven knows
I've tried to find a cure for the pain
Oh my Lord, to suffer like you do
It would be a lie to run away
A lie to run
It would be a lie
It would be a lie to run away
It keeps on falling
It keeps on falling
It keeps on falling
It keeps on falling
Water keeps on falling from my eyes
And heaven knows, heaven knows
I tried to find a cure for the pain
Oh my Lord, to suffer like you do
It would be a lie to run away
It would be a lie to run away
It would be a lie to run away
Ain't No Reason Lyrics - Brett Drennen
There ain't no reason things are this way
It's how they've always been and they intend to stay
I can't explain why we live this way, we do it everyday
Preachers on the podium speaking of saints
Prophets on the sidewalk begging for change
Old ladies laughing from the fire escape cursing my name
I got a basket full of lemons and they all taste the same
A window and a pigeon with a broken wing
You can spend you whole life working for something,
Just to have it taken away
People walk around pushing back their debts
Wearing paychecks like necklaces and bracelets
Talking about nothing, not thinking 'bout death
Every little hearbeat, every little breath
People walk a tight rope on a razor's edge
Carrying their hurt and hatred and weapons
It could be a bomb or a bullet or a pen
Or a thought or a word or a sentence
There ain't no reason things are this way
It's how they've always been and they intend to stay
I don't know why I say the things I say
But I say them anyway
But love will come set me free
Love will come set me free, I do believe
Love will come set me free, I know it will
Love will come set my free, yes.
Prison walls still standing tall
Some things never change at all
Keep on building prisons, gonna fill them all
Keep on building bombs, gonna drop them all
Working your fingers bare to the bone
Breaking your back make you sell your soul
Like a lung, it's filled with cold, suffocating slow
The wind blows wild and I may move
The politicians lie and I am not fooled
You don't need no reason or a three-piece suit
To argue the truth
The air on my skin and the world under my toes
Labor is stiched into the fabric of my clothes
Chaos and commotion wherever I go
Love I try to follow
There ain't no reason things are this way
It's how they've always been and they intend to stay
I can't explain why we live this way,
We do it everyday.
Alexandra Leaving Lyrics - A Leonard Cohen Song as Interpreted by Jenny Gear
Suddenly the night has grown colder.
The god of love preparing to depart.
Alexandra hoisted on his shoulder,
They slip between the sentries of the heart.
Upheld by the simplicities of pleasure,
They gain the light, they formlessly entwine;
And radiant beyond your widest measure
They fall among the voices and the wine.
It’s not a trick, your senses all deceiving,
A fitful dream, the morning will exhaust –
Say goodbye to Alexandra leaving.
Then say goodbye to Alexandra lost.
Even though she sleeps upon your satin;
Even though she wakes you with a kiss.
Do not say that moment was imagined;
Do not stoop to strategies like this.
As someone long prepared for this to happen,
Go firmly to the window. Drink it in.
Exquisite music. Alexandra laughing.
Your first commitment is tangible again.
And you who had the honor of her evening,
And by that honor had your own restored –
Say goodbye to Alexandra leaving;
Alexandra's leaving with her lord.
As someone long prepared for the occasion;
In full command of every plan you wrecked –
Do not choose a coward’s explanation
That hides behind the cause and the effect.
And you who were bewildered by her meaning;
Whose code was broken, crucifix uncrossed –
Say goodbye to Alexandra leaving.
Then say goodbye to Alexandra lost.
Fall At Your Feet Lyrics - Neil Finn
I'm really close tonight
And I feel like I'm moving inside her
Lying in the dark
And I think that I'm beginning to know her
Let it go I'll be there when you call
And whenever I fall at your feet
You let your tears rain down on me
Whenever I touch your slow turning pain
You're hiding from me now
There's something in the way that you're talking
Words don't sound right
But I hear them all moving inside you, go
I'll be waiting when you call
The finger of blame has turned upon itself
And I'm more than willing to offer myself
Do you want my presence or need my help?
Who knows where that might lead, I fall, I fall
Whenever I fall at your feet
You let your tears, let it rain, let it rain down on me
Whenever I fall, whenever I fall
32 Flavors Lyrics - Ani Difranco
Squint your eyes and look closer
I'm not between you and your ambition
I am a poster girl with no poster
I am thirty-two flavors and then some
And I'm beyond your peripheral vision
So you might want to turn your head
Cause someday you're going to get hungry
And eat most of the words you just said
Both my parents taught me about good will
And I have done well by their names
Just the kindness I've lavished on strangers
Is more than I can explain
Still there's many who've turned out their porch lights
Just so I would think they were not home
And hid in the dark of their windows
'Til I'd passed and left them alone
And god help you if you are an ugly girl
'Course too pretty is also your doom
Cause everyone harbors a secret hatred
For the prettiest girl in the room
And god help you if you are a phoenix
And you dare to rise up from the ash
A thousand eyes will smolder with jealousy
While you are just flying back
I'm not trying to give my life meaning
By demeaning you
And I would like to state for the record
I did everything that I could do
I'm not saying that I'm a saint
I just don't want to live that way
Io, I will never be a saint
But I will always say
Close Your Eyes Lyrics - Kelly Clarkson
I don't mind waiting here, I know you're coming
Even though the others left right here
But I'm not one to give up
We said forever so I'm standing here, I'm standing here
And I don't mind, you would never leave me behind
If you break, I break too
When you're lonely, I'll hold on to you
I see you closing down, but I won't give up now
I'm gonna fight for you tonight, close Your Eyes
You might fall and I might cry, covered in bruises
I refuse to let this tear apart our lives
Others talk, let them talk
Love isn't easy but it's worth for you
You're worth it yeah
And I'm kissing you
Kiss away those fears and hold on too
And I feel it too
And if you start to fall, I promise I'll fall with you
No I don't mind waiting here
I know you're coming even though the others left right here
But I'm not one to give up
We said forever so I'm standing here, I'm standing here
The Biggest Lie Lyrics - Elliott Smith
I'm waiting for the train
The subway that only goes one way
The stupid thing that will come to pull us apart
And make everybody late
You spent everything you had
Wanted everything to stop that bad
And now I'm a crushed credit card registered to Smith
Not the name that you call me with
You turned white like a saint
I'm tired of dancing on a pot of gold flake paint
Oh, we're so very precious, you and I
And everything that you do makes me want to die
Oh, I just told the biggest lie
I just told the biggest lie
The biggest lie
The Story Lyrics - Brandi Carlile
All of these lines across my face
Tell you the story of who I am
So many stories of where I've been
And how I got to where I am
But these stories don't mean anything
When you've got no one to tell them to
It's true...I was made for you
I climbed across the mountain tops
Swam all across the ocean blue
I crossed all the lines and I broke all the rules
But baby I broke them all for you
Because even when I was flat broke
You made me feel like a million bucks, you do
I was made for you
You see the smile that's on my mouth
It's hiding the words that don't come out
And all of my friends who think that I'm blessed
They don't know my head is a mess
No, they don't know who I really am
And they don't know what
I've been through like you do
And I was made for you...
All of these lines across my face
Tell you the story of who I am
So many stories of where I've been
And how I got to where I am
But these stories don't mean anything
When you've got no one to tell them to
It's true...I was made for you
I'm Yours Lyrics - Jason Mraz
Well you done done me and you bet I felt it
I tried to be chill but you're so hot that I melted
I fell right through the cracks and now I'm trying to get back
Before the cool done run out I'll be giving it my bestest
And nothing's going to stop me but divine intervention
I reckon it's again my turn to win some or learn some
I won't hesitate no more, no more
It cannot wait, I'm yours
Well open up your mind and see like me
Open up your plans and damn you're free
Look into your heart and you'll find love love love
Listen to the music of the moment baby sing with me
I love peace for melody
And It's our God-forsaken right to be loved love loved love loved
So I won't hesitate no more, no more it cannot wait I'm sure
There's no need to complicate our time is short
This is our fate, I'm yours
I've been spending way too long checking my tongue in the mirror
And bending over backwards just to try to see it clearer
But my breath fogged up the glass
And so I drew a new face and laughed
I guess what I'm be saying is there ain't no better reason
To rid yourself of vanity and just go with the seasons
It's what we aim to do, our name is our virtue
I won't hesitate no more, no more it cannot wait I'm sure
Well open up your mind and see like me
Open up your plans and damn you're free
Look into your heart and you'll find that the sky is yours
Please don't, please don't, please don't
There's no need to complicate 'cause our time is short
This oh this this is out fate, I'm yours
