Song Lyrics

[Sexy Elecktra]

Christina Aguilera - REFLECTION

Look at me

You may think you see

Who I really am

But you'll never know me

Everyday, it's as if I play a part

 

Now I see, if I wear a mask

I can fool the world

But I cannot fool my heart

 

Chorus:

Who is that girl I see,

Staring straight back at me?

When will my reflection show

Who I am inside?

 

I am now

In a world where I have to hide my heart,

And what I believe in

But somehow, I will show the world,

What's inside my heart,

And be loved for who I am

 

Chorus:

Who is that girl I see,

Staring straight back at me?

Why is my reflection someone I dont know?

Must I pretend that I'm

Someone else for all time?

When will my reflection show who I am inside?

 

There's a heart that must be free to fly,

That burns with the need to know the reason why

 

Why must we all conceal,

What we think, how we feel?

Must there be a secret me I'm forced to hide?

I won't pretend that I'm someone else for all time

When will my reflection show

Who I am inside?

 

When will my reflection show

Who I am inside?

Hanging By A Moment

LIFEHOUSE

 

Desperate for changing

Starving for truth

Closer where i Started

Chasing after you

 

i'm falling even more in love with you

letting go of all i've held onto

i'm standing here until you make me move

i'm hanging by a moment here with you

 

forgetting all i'm lacking

completely incomplete

i'll take your invitation

you take all of me

 

now.. i'm falling even more in love with you

letting go of all i've held onto

i'm standing here until you make me move

i'm hanging by a moment here with you

 

i'm living for the only thing i know

i'm running and not quite sure where to go

i don't know what i'm diving into

just hanging by a moment here with you

 

there's nothing else to lose

nothing left to find

there's nothing in the world

that could change my mind

there is nothing else

there is nothing else...

 

Desperate for changing

Starving for truth

Closer where i Started

Chasing after you

 

i'm falling even more in love with you

letting go of all i've held onto

i'm standing here until you make me move

i'm hanging by a moment here with you

 

i'm living for the only thing i know

i'm running and not quite sure where to go

i don't know what i'm diving into

just hanging by a moment here with you

 

just hanging by a moment

hanging by a moment..

hanging by a moment...

hanging by a moment here with you..

Love turned to obsession, cool ballad music, one brutal lyrics. Click title for music vid.

 

 

You're All I Need

Motley Crue

The blade of my knife

Faced away from your heart

Those last few nights

It turned and sliced you apart

This love that I tell

Now feels lonely as hell

From this padded prison cell

 

So many times I said

Youd only be mine

I gave my blood and my tears

And loved you cyanide

When you took my lips

I took your breath

Sometimes loves better off dead

 

Youre all I need, make you only mine

I love you so I set you free

I had to take your life

Youre all I need, youre all I need

And I loved you but you didnt love me

 

Laid out cold

Now were both alone

But killing you helped me keep you home

I guess it was bad

Cause love can be sad

But we finally make the news

 

Tied up smiling

I thought you were happy

Never opened your eyes

I thought you were napping

I got so much to learn

About love in this world

But we finally made the news

 

Youre all I need, make you only mine

I loved you so, so I put you to sleep.

[cruesome]

One moving ballad, the piano, guitars and vocals well blended to give you goosebumps.

 

Savatage

 

Someone

Got themselves a letter

In the mail the other day

It's already worn and tattered

And I guess

It gives away

 

All the things we keep inside

All the things that really matter

The face puts on it's best disguise

And all is well

Until the heart

Betrays

 

She knows

As she reads her letter

That things were bound to stray

Winds blow

She pulls her coat tighter

And the letter flies away

 

With all the things she keeps inside

All the things that really matter

The face puts on it's best disguise

And all is well

Until the heart betrays

 

Lord bring on the night

Wrap it all around me

Let it hold me tight

Soak up all that I bleed

 

Lord bring on the night

Wrap it all around me

Let it hold me tight

Soak up all that I bleed

 

And I'll fly away

Yeah I'll fly away

Yeah I'll fly away

Watch me

 

Lord bring on the night

Wrap it all around me

Let it hold me tight

Soak up all that I bleed, yeah yeah

 

I bleed

[iwalkalone]

Too much to ask

Avril Lavigne

 

Its the first time I ever felt this lonely

I wish someone could cure this pain

Its funny when you think its gonna work out

Til you chose weed over me, you're so lame

I thought you were cool until the point

But up until the point you didnt call me

When you said you would

I finally figured out youre all the same

Always coming up with some kind of story

 

Everytime I try to make you smile

You're always feeling sorry for yourself

Everytime I try to make you laugh

You can't

Youre too tough

You think you're loveless

Is that too much that I'm asking for?

 

I thought you'd come around when I ignored you

So I thought you'd have the decency to change

But babe, I guess you didn't take that warning

'Cause I'm not about to look

at your face again

 

Can't you see that you lie to yourself

You can't see the world through a mirror

It wont be too late when the smoke clears

'Cause I, I am still here

 

But everytime I try to make you smile

You'd always grow up feeling

sorry for yourself

Everytime I try to make you laugh

You stand like a stone

Alone in your zone

Is it too much that I'm asking for?

 

Yeah yeah yeah yeah

Can't find where i am

Lying here

Alone I fear

Afraid of the dark

No one to claim

Alone again

 

Can't you see that you lie to yourself

You can't see the world through a mirror

It wont be too late when the smoke clears

'Cause I, I am still here

 

Everytime I try to make you smile

You're always feeling sorry for yourself

Everytime I try to make you laugh

You can't

You're too tough

You think you're loveless

It was too much that I'm asking for

Brandy ft. Tamia, Gladys Knight, Chaka Khan-

 

MISSING YOU

 

 

Though I'm missing you

(Although I'm missing you)

I'll find a way to get through

(I'll find a way to get through)

Living without you

'Cause you were my sister, my strength, and my pride

Only God may know why, stll i will get by

Verse:

BRANDY:

Who would have known that you had to go

But so suddenly, so fast

And how could it be, all the sweet memories

Would be all,all that we'd have left

TAMIA:

Now that you're gone, everyday I go on(I go on)

But life's just not the same.(life's just not the same baby)

I'm so empty inside , and my tears I can't hide

But I'll try, I'll try to face the pain

(Chorus)

Verse:

GLADYS:

Oh, there were so many things

That we could have shared(uh-huh)

If time was on our side(Time was on our side)

Ooh,yea

Now that you're gone, I can still feel you near

So I'll smile with every tear I cry

Chorus

Bridge:

CHAKA:

How sweet, were the closest of friends.

But I'll wait for the day,

When I'll see you again,

I'll see you again.

Someone in the Dark

Michael Jackson

 

 

All alone wishing on stars

Waiting for you to find me

One sweet night I knew I would see

A stranger who'd be my friend

 

When someone in the dark reaches out to you

And touches off a spark that comes shining through

It tells you never be afraid

Then somewhere in your heart you can feel the glow

A light to keep you warm when the night winds blow

Like it was written in the stars I knew

My friend, my someone in the dark was you

 

Promise me we'll always be

Walking the world together

Hand in hand where dreams never end

My star secret friend and me

 

When someone in the dark reaches out to you

And touches off a spark that comes shining through

It tells you never be afraid

Then somewhere in your heart you can feel the glow

A light to keep you warm when the night winds blow

Look for the rainbow in the sky

I believe you and I

Could never really say goodbye

Wherever you may be

I'll look up and see

Someone in the dark for me

Wherever you may be

I'll look up and see

Someone in the dark for me

 

Though you're gone star far away

Each time I see a rainbow

I'll remember being with you

Smiles coming through my tears

 

When someone in the dark reaches out for you

And touches off a spark that comes shining through

It tells you never be afraid

Then somewhere in your heart you can feel the glow

A light to keep you warm when the night winds blow

Look for the rainbow in the sky

I believe you and I

Could never really say goodbye

Wherever you may be

I'll look up and see

Someone in the dark for me

Wherever you may be

I'll look up and see

Someone in the dark for me!

[revi]

Now It's Dark

ANTHRAX

 

In dreams I can rule your life

With me nothin's ever right

Sing for me up on a stage

Keep your mind trapped in a cage

I'm you man I'm what you need

Dance with me but never lead

One deep breath will set me free

Don't you f#&kin' look at me

You know that I am...

 

One f#&kin' well dressed man !

 

Now it's dark, but I can see

Don't you f#&kin' look at me

Now it's dark, your gonna be

Exactly what I want to see

Now it's dark, mommy

Don't you f#&kin' look at me

 

A sensation

Of eletion

Intoxication

Now it's dark

 

A candy coated existence

Underneath is decadence

What was hidden you have found

Made it your own battleground

Pretty, pretty, don't say please

Don't you f#&kin' look at me

You know that I am...

 

One f#&kin' well dressed man !

 

Now it's dark, but I can see

Don't you f#&kin' look at me

Now it's dark, your gonna be

Exactly what I want to see

Now it's dark, mommy

Don't you f#&kin' look at me

 

A sensation

Of eletion

Intoxication

Now it's dark

 

I'll send you a love letter

Straight from the bottom of my heart

You'll be f#&ked forever

The candy coated clowns's done his part

 

I'm your man I'm what you need

Dance with me but never lead

One deep breath will set me free

 

Don't you f#&kin' look at me

You know that I am...

 

One f#&kin' well dressed man !

"Better Together"

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

 

[Chorus:]

MMM it's always better when we're together

Yeah, we'll look at the stars when we're together

Well, it's always better when we're together

Yeah, it's always better when we're together

 

And all of these moments

Just might find 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

Mmmm, we're somewhere in between together

Well, it's always better when we're together

Yeah, it's always better when we're together

 

MMmmmm MMMmmmm Mmmmmm

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.

Bubble Toes

Jack Johnson

 

 

It's as simple as something that nobody knows that her eyes are as big

as her bubbly toes

on the feet of a queen of the hearts of the cards and her feet are all

covered with tar balls and scars

It's as common as something that nobody knows that her beauty will

follow wherever she goes

up the hill in the back of her house in the would she love me forever,

I know she could

 

I remember when you and me mmm how we used to be just good friends

Wouldn't give me none

But all I wanted was some

She's got a whole lot of reasons

She cant think of a single one

That can justify leaving

and he got none but he thinks he got so many problems

Man he got, too much time to waste

 

His dreams are like commercials

But her dreams are picture perfect and

Our dreams are so related though they're often underestimated

 

It's as simple as something that nobody knows that

Her eyes are as big as her bubbly toes

On the feet of the queen of the hearts of the cards

And her feet are infested with tar balls and

 

La da da da da da

 

Well I was eating lunch at the D. L. G.

When this little girl came and she sat next to me

I never seen nobody move the way she did

Well she did and she does and she'll do it again

 

When you move like a jellyfish

Rhythm don't mean nothing

You go with the flow

You don't stop

Move like a jellyfish

Rhythm is nothing

You go with the flow

You don't stop

 

It's as common as something that nobody knows it

Her beauty will follow wherever she goes

Up the hill in the back of her house in the wood

She'll love me forever, I know she

 

If you would only listen

You might just realize what you're missing

You're missing me

If you would only listen

You might just realize what you're missing

You're missing me

 

It's as simple as something that nobody knows that

Her eyes are as big as her bubbly toes

On the feet of the queen of the hearts of the cards

And her feet are infested with tar balls and...

Lady in Red by Chris de Burgh

 

 

I've never seen you looking so lovely as you did tonight

I've never seen you shine so bright

I've never seen so many men ask you if you wanted to dance

They're looking for a little romance

Given half a chance

And I've never seen that dress you're wearing

Or that highlights in your hair

That catch your eyes

I have been blind

 

The lady in red is dancing with me

Cheek to cheek

There's nobody here

It's just you and me

It's where I wanna be

But I hardly know this beauty by my side

I'll never forget the way you look tonight

 

I've never seen you looking so gorgeous as you did tonight

I've never seen you shine so bright you were amazing

I've never seen so many people want to be there by your side

And when you turned to me and smiled it took my breath away

And I have never had such a feeling such a feeling

Of complete and utter love, as I do tonight

 

The lady in red is dancing with me

Cheek to cheek

There's nobody here

It's just you and me

It's where I wanna be

But I hardly know this beauty by my side

I'll never forget the way you look tonight

 

I never will forget the way you look tonight

The lady in red

My lady in red

I love you

[cruesome]

MÖTLEY CRÜE

Without you, there's no change

My nights and days are grey

If I reached out and touched the rain

It just wouldn't feel the same

 

Without you, I'd be lost

I'd slip down from the top

I'd slide down so low

Girl you'd never, never know...

 

Without you, without you

A sailor lost at sea

Without you, woman

The world comes down on me

 

Without you in my life

I'd slowly wilt and die

But with you by my side

You're the reason I'm alive

But with you in my life

You're the reason I'm alive

But without you, without you...

 

Without you, my hope is small

Let me be me all along

You let the fires rage inside

Knowing someday I'd grow strong

Without you, without you

A sailor lost at sea

Without you, woman

The world comes down on me

 

Without you in my life

I'd slowly wilt and die

But with you by my side

You're the reason I'm alive

But with you in my life

You're the reason I'm alive

But without you, without you...

 

I could face a mountain

But I could never climb alone

I could start another day

But how many, just don't know

You're the reason the sun shines down

And the nights, they don't grow cold

Only you that I'll hold when I'm young

Only you...as we grow old

 

Without you in my life

I'd slowly wilt and die

But with you by my side

You're the reason I'm alive

But with you in my life

You're the reason I'm alive

But without you, without you...

BEAUTY AND MADNESS

-Fra Lippo Lippi

 

Over there, just beneath the moon,

There's a man with a burden to keep,

Now sleep will fall, washouts, rags and paperbags

Homes and lives passing by.

 

Chorus

Who will see the beauty in your life

And who will be there to hear you when you call

Who will see the madness in your life.

And who will be there to catch you if you fall.

 

Dreams run wild, as lovers find their way through the right,

Not a care in the world

And over there, oh the twinkling of the lights, harbour lights

Say goodnight one more time

[Guest Yavanna]

LIGHT AND SHADE

-Fra Lippo Lippi

 

He will pain the light and shades

The colours and the trees

He will climb the steepest hill

Believing what he sees

He will lay down on the ground

Beneath the old oak tree

He will sleep forever

If you try to set him free

 

Chorus

Sail on the wings of a cloud

Where to, well nobody knows

And cry, cry if you want them to see

Die every day to be free

Be proud to wear the colours

that you call your own

Be loud, speak out when the world to know

Be strong, hold the flame

for everyone to see

Be weak, if you want to love.

 

He will paint the endless sea.

A mystery to me

He will reach out for the sun,

Not dreaming what he sees

He will fall down on his knees

Angel touching ground

Takes him to the other side

Sweet love is coming down.

STITCHES AND BURNS

-Fra Lippo Lippi

 

People say that I'm a fool

Well I don't know

At least I found out

what it takes to be strong

I was dreaming all day long

A drifting cloud

With eyes wide open

I would choose not to see

 

Now I don't want

to see you anymore

Don't want to be the one

to play your game

Not even if you smile

your sweetest smile

Not even if you beg me

darling please

 

Say good morning to the world

I hope you like it

take good care of all those

things that we have

I've been looking for a way

for to long now

seems like everything

must come to an end

 

*repeat

 

Time after time

nothing that I can do

Knowing your ways

and loving your ways

But not getting through at all

Day after day

leaving the past behind

Coming to terms

with stitches and burns and

Learning to fly again

[backup]

kent - 747

 

Silence, like a whisper

Maybe tomorrow it won't be here

So tomorrow we could teach them

Some new styles

You're such a killer

So shoot me down again

It won't hurt when the killing is done by a friend

Silence, like a whisper

So this is all we need

The fully air conditioned sound of speed

A violent whisper

And this time it's for real

So this day I made plans for us to leave

Silence, why won't you listen

Maybe it's just me

but sometimes it's impossible to breathe

A violent whisper

Maybe this time it won't heal

Maybe this time it will bleed until I'm free

[Guest Yavanna]

LIKE A PRAYER

-Madonna

 

Life is a mystery, everyone must stand alone

I hear you call my name

And it feels like home

 

[Chorus:]

 

When you call my name it's like a little prayer

I'm down on my knees, I wanna take you there

In the midnight hour I can feel your power

Just like a prayer you know I'll take you there

 

I hear your voice, it's like an angel sighing

I have no choice, I hear your voice

Feels like flying

I close my eyes, Oh God I think I'm falling

Out of the sky, I close my eyes

Heaven help me

 

[chorus]

 

Like a child you whisper softly to me

You're in control just like a child

Now I'm dancing

It's like a dream, no end and no beginning

You're here with me, it's like a dream

Let the choir sing

 

[chorus]

 

Just like a prayer, your voice can take me there

Just like a muse to me, you are a mystery

Just like a dream, you are not what you seem

Just like a prayer, no choice your voice can take me there

 

Just like a prayer, I'll take you there

It's like a dream to me

LONGER

-Dan Fogelberg

 

Longer than there've been fishes

in the ocean

Higher than any bird ever flew

Longer than there've been stars

up in the heavens

I've been in love with you.

 

Stronger than any mountain cathedral

Truer than any tree ever grew

Deeper than any forest primeval

I am in love with you.

 

I'll bring fires in the winters

You'll send showers in the springs

We'll fly through the falls and summers

With love on our wings.

 

Through the years as the fire

starts to mellow

Burning lines in the book of our lives

Though the binding cracks and the

pages start to yellow

I'll be in love with you.

 

Longer than there've been fishes

in the ocean

Higher than any bird ever flew

Longer than there've been stars

up in the heavens

I've been in love with you

I am in love with you..

[iwalkalone]

Unashamed Love

Ten Shekel Shirt

 

You're calling me to lay aside the worries of my day

To quiet down my busy mind and find a hiding place

Worthy, Worthy

 

I open up my heart and let my spirit worship Yours

I open up my mouth and let a song of praise come forth

Worthy, You are worthy

 

chorus

Of a child-like faith

And of my honest praise

And of my unashamed love

Of a holy life

And of my sacrifice

And of my unashamed love

Breathe In, Breathe Out

Mat Kearney

 

Breathe in, breathe out

Tell me all of your doubts

Everybody bleeds this way, just the same

Breathe in, breathe out

Move on and break down

If everyone goes away, I will stay

We push and pull

And I fall down sometimes

And I’m not letting go

You hold the other line

Cause there is a light in your eyes, in your eyes

 

Hold on, hold tight

If I’m out of your sight

And everything keeps moving on, moving on

Hold on, hold tight

Make it through another night

In every day there comes a song with the dawn

We push and pull

 

And I fall down sometimes

And I’m not letting go

You hold the other line

Cause there is a light in your eyes, in your eyes

There is a light in your eyes, in your eyes

 

Breathe in and breathe out

Breathe in and breathe out

Breathe in and breathe out

Breathe in and breathe out

 

Look left, look right

To the moon and the night

Everything under the stars is in your arms

 

Cause there is a light in your eyes, in your eyes

There is a light in your eyes, in your eyes

There is a light in your eyes, in your eyes

[chiquezee]

You Are The One

Elliot Yamin

 

 

Hmmmmmm

Ooooooooh

 

Sometimes i sit and i wonder

And i just can't seem to believe

What a blessing it's been to be loved

You're an angel sent to me

 

You're the star who lights up my sky

You're the one who made me see

That you don't need wings to fly

Your love has set me free

 

Cause you are the one who makes me whole

In my heart and in my soul

And just like the sun you showed me the light

I'm amazed and you're the reason why

 

Before you i was so blind

I didn't know which path to choose

You poured all of this love in my heart

And now there's no way that I can lose

 

And when i have no faith in myself

You're the one who makes me strong

I wouldn't have a story to tell

Or an ending to my song

 

Cause you are the one who makes me whole

In my heart and in my soul

And just like the sun you showed me the light

I'm amazed and you're the reason why

 

Oooohh you're the reason why

Oh ooooooooh

 

You are the one who makes me whole

In my heart and in my soul

Just like the sun you showed me the light

I'm amazed and you're the reason why

 

Cause you are the one who makes me whole

In my heart and in my soul

Just like the sun you showed me the light

I'm amazed and you're the reason why

 

You are the one who makes me whole

In my heart and in my soul

And just like the sun you showed me the light

I'm amazed and you're the reason why

 

Hmmmmmmmm

Ooooooh

Moon And Sun

Gomez

 

When you look to the future

Don't forget to write to me

When your love starts to wonder

Don't fret, I broke the seam

Yes the night is so serene

Just add Kerosene

 

We always felt so good, together

The days just rolled on by

Moon & Sun

We all move on

 

The nights in the sand dunes

Carefree days and summer sounds

It's the way we built you

That house just won't come down

My faults

My feeble ways

My better days

 

We tried to hide from failure

The weather

We said we'd never fight

Moon & Sun

What's done is done

Moon & Sun

We all move on

 

Did you say someday?

Did you say try?

Did you say you love me?

Don't ask why?

 

'Cause we always felt so good, together

But the days just rolled on by

Moon & Sun

We all move on

We all move on

We all move on

We all move on

SMASHING PUMPKINS

 

"Mayonaise"

 

Fool enough to almost be it

Cool enough to not quite see it

Doomed

Pick your pockets full of sorrow

And run away with me tomorrow

June

 

We'll try and ease the pain

But somehow we'll feel the same

Well, no one knows

Where our secrets go

 

I send a heart to all my dearies

When your life is so, so dreary

Dream

I'm rumored to the straight and narrow

While the harlots of my perils

Scream

 

And I fail

But when I can, I will

Try to understand

That when I can, I will

 

Mother weep the years I'm missing

All our time can't be given

Back

Shut my mouth and strike the demons

That cursed you and your reasons

Out of hand and out of season

Out of love and out of feeling

So bad

 

When I can, I will

Words defy the plan

When I can, I will

 

Fool enough to almost be it

And cool enough to not quite see it

And old enough to always feel this

Always old, I'll always feel this

 

No more promise no more sorrow

No longer will I follow

Can anybody hear me

I just want to be me

When I can, I will

Try to understand

That when I can, I will

[bleuxrose]

You've Got It All

The Jets

 

 

I, i was the game he would play

He broke the clouds to my day

Then like a ray of light

You came my way with might

 

Just one look

And i knew

You would make everything clear

Make all the clouds disappear

Put all your fears to rest

Who do i love the best

 

Don't you know

Don't you know

 

Chorus

You got it all over him

You got me over him

Honey it's true

There's just you

You must have been heaven sent

Hearing me call you when

Out over here

And you're all that he's not

Just look what i've got

Coz you've got it all

Over him

 

No, don't let him worry you so

Once i met you i'll let go

Oh you control you see

You're so much more to me

Just one look and i knew

You would make evrything clear

Make all the clouds disappear

You're better among the rest

Who do i love the best

 

Don't you know

Don't you know

 

Repeat chorus
