Need You Now - Lady Antebellum

Image
Picture perfect memories, scattered all around the floor. Reaching for the phone cause, I can't fight it any more. And I wonder if I ever cross your mind. For me it happens all the time. It's a quarter after one, I'm all alone and I need you now. I said I wouldn't call but I lost all control and I need you now. And I don't know how I can do without, I just need you now. Another shot of whiskey, can't stop looking at the door. Wishing you'd come sweeping in the way you did before. And I wonder if I ever cross your mind. For me it happens all the time. It's a quarter after one, I'm a little drunk and I need you now. I said I wouldn't call but I lost all control and I need you now. And I don't know how I can do without, I just need you now. I guess I'd rather hurt than feel nothing at all. It's a quarter after one, I'm all alone and I need you now. And I said I wouldn't call, but I'm a little drunk and...

You'll Be Mine - The Pierces

Image
We could bring a blanket for the grass, Cover up your eyes so you don't see.   If you let me go I'm running fast,   1,2,3 count 1,2,3   We could watch the blackbirds cross the skies,   We could count the leaves left on the trees,   We could count the tear drops in our eyes,   1,2,3 yeah 1,2,3   1,2,3 yeah 1,2,3   Now you know,  now you know how I feel   and I won't back down   Prick your finger on the spinning wheel,   But don't make a sound.   A drop of blood and now you're taken,   For all time.   With a kiss you will awaken,   And you'll be mine, you'll be mine, you'll be mine.   I could always stay and work it out,   Wondering if you still wanted me?   But there are so many things to doubt,   1,2,3 count 1,2,3   Think that for a moment you were mine,   I know that you saw what we could be,   But then you went and changed your min...

Your own personal Jesus Someone to hear your prayers Someone who cares Your own personal jesus Someone to hear your prayers Someone who's there Feeling unknown And you're all alone Flesh and bone By the telephone Lift up the receiver I'll make you a believer Take second best Put me to the test Things on your chest You need to confess I will deliver You know I'm a forgiver Reach out and touch faith Reach out and touch faith Your own personal Jesus...

Scarborough Fair - Queensryche

Image
Are you goin' to Scarborough Fair?  Parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme, Remember me to the one who lives there,  she once was a true love of mine. Tell her to make me a cambric shirt, Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme, Without no seam or needlework, She once was a true love of mine. Tell her to weave it in a sycamore wood lane, Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme, And gather it all with a basket of flowers, Then she'll be a true love of mine. Ask her to buy me an acre of land, Parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme, Between salt water and the strands, Then she'll be a true love of mine. Tell her to reap it in a sickle of leather. Parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme. And gather it all in a bunch of heather. Then she'll be a true love of mine. Are you going to Scarborough Fair?  Parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme. Remember me to the one who lives there,  Then she'll be a true love of mine.

Tears of the Dragon - Bruce Dickinson

Image
For too long now There were secrets in my mind For too long now There were things I should have said In the darkness I was stumbling for the door To find a reason To find the time,the place,the hour Waiting for the winter sun And the cold light of day The misty ghosts of childhood fears The pressure is building And I can't stay away I throw myself into the sea Release the wave Let it wash over me To face the fear I once believed The tears of the dragon For you and for me Where I was I had wings that couldn't fly Where I was I had tears I couldn't cry My emotions Frozen in an icy lake I couldn't feel them Until the ice began to break I have no power over this You know I'm afraid The walls I built are crumbling The water is moving I'm slipping away I throw myself into the sea Release the wave Let it wash over me To face the fear I once believed The tears of the dragon For you and for me Slowly I awake Slowly I rise...

When Then Is Now - Lisa Chappell

Image
When the world stops running and looks me in the eye and starts to answer all my questions why when God is patient and so am I I’ll be happy When life goes simply from a to b and the pearly white flags are flowing free hope not blood is the story that leads I’ll be happy When my teeth stop hurting and my bird stops hissing and my doubts go missing I’ll be free ooh, ooh I’ll be happy When my teeth stop hurting and my bird stops hissing and my doubts go missing I’ll be free ooh, ooh I’ll be happy When then is now when then is now when then is now when then is now When our children's tears are not black stains and our brothers and sisters don’t die in vain when our mothers are free to breathe again I’ll be happy When we breathe in love and not bad air when we call you friend anywhere when our politicians really start to care I’ll be happy When my teeth stop hurting and my bird stops hissing and my doubts go missing I’ll be free ooh, ooh, I’ll ...

My Happy Ending - Avril Lavigne

Image
So much for my happy ending Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh... Let's talk this over It's not like we're dead Was it something I did? Was it something You said? Don't leave me hanging In a city so dead Held up so high On such a breakable thread You were all the things I thought I knew And I thought we could be You were everything, everything that I wanted We were meant to be, supposed to be, but we lost it And all of the memories, so close to me, just fade away All this time you were pretending So much for my happy ending Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh... You've got your dumb friends I know what they say They tell you I'm difficult But so are they But they don't know me Do they even know you? All the things you hide from me All the shit that you do You were all the things I thought I knew And I thought we could be It's nice to know that you were there Thanks for acting like you cared And making me feel like I was the only one It's nic...
