Imogen Heap - First Train Home

'Don't miss.....'
W x




Got to get on it
Got to get on it.
Got to get on it.


Bodies disengaged,
our mouths are fleshing over.
(over, over, over)
Is this an echo game?
Irises retreating to ovals of white.


The urge to feel your face,
and blood rushing to paint
my hand print.
A Frisbee one by one;
you're vinyl on laminate,
just prefer some kind of contact.


First train home, I've got to get on it.
First train home, I've got to get on it.
First train home, I've got to get on it.
To Catch, to catch, catch-catch, catch.
First train home, I've got to get on it.
First train home, I've got to get on it.
First train home, I've got to get on it.
First Train home


Da-n-da deyo deyo da deyo
Da-n-da deyo deyo da deyy


Temporal dead-zone, where clocks are barely breathing
(breathing, breathing, breathing)
yet no one cares to notice for all the yelling,
all night clamor to hold it together.


I want to play--don't wait--
forms in the hideaway
I want to get on with getting on with things
I want to run in fields,
paint the kitchen, and love someone
And I can't do any of that here, can I?


First train home, I've got to get on it.
First train home, I've got to get on it.
First train home, I've got to get on it.
First Train home.


So what? You've had one too many.
So what? I'm not that much fun to be with.
So what? You've come silly Hatter.
So what? I didn't want to come here, anyway.


What matters you,
doesn't matter, matter to me.
What matters to me,
doesn't matter, matter to you.
What matters to you,
doesn't matter, matter to them.
What matters to them,
doesn't change anything.


Got to get on it.
First train home.
Got to get on it.
First train home.


First train home
I've got to get on it
(I've got to get on it)
To catch, to catch, catch-catch, catch.
(First train home)
First train home
I've got to get on it
First train home.
(First train home)
Got to, Got to, Got to, Got to, Get, Get, Get, Get, Out, Out, Out, Out, Now, Now, Now, Now.

Natasha Bedingfield - Soulmate

'...and here is the sister. I hope you find yours...soulmate not sister...though if you've accidentally misplaced your sister I hope you find them too.'
W x





Incompatible, it don't matter though
'cos someone's bound to hear my cry
Speak out if you do
You're not easy to find


Is it possible Mr. Loveable
Is already in my life?
Right in front of me
Or maybe you're in disguise


Who doesn't long for someone to hold
Who knows how to love you without being told
Somebody tell me why I'm on my own
If there's a soulmate for everyone


Here we are again, circles never end
How do I find the perfect fit
There's enough for everyone
But I'm still waiting in line


Who doesn't long for someone to hold
Who knows how to love you without being told
Somebody tell me why I'm on my own
If there's a soulmate for everyone


If there's a soulmate for everyone


Most relationships seem so transitory
They're all good but not the permanent one


Who doesn't long for someone to hold
Who knows how to love you without being told
Somebody tell me why I'm on my own
If there's a soulmate for everyone


Who doesn't long for someone to hold
Who knows how to love you without being told
Somebody tell me why I'm on my own
If there's a soulmate for everyone
If there's a soulmate for everyone

Daniel Bedingfield - If Your Not The One




If your not the one then why does my soulf feel glad today
If your not the one then why does my hand fit yours this way
If you are not mine then why does your heart my calls
If you you are not mine would i have the strength to stand at all
I dont know what the future brings,but i know your here with me now
We'll make it through and i hope you are the one i share my life with


(chorus) I dont wanna run away but i cant take it i dont understand
If i'm not made for you then why does my heart tell me that i am
Is there anyway that i can stay in your arms


If i dont need you then why am i crying on my bed
If i dont need you then why does your name resound in my head
If your not for me then why does this distance name my life
If your not for me then why do i dream of you as my wife
I dont know why your so far away but i know this much is true
We'll make it through and i hope you are the one i share my life with
And i wish that you could be the one i die with
And i pray that your the one i build my home with I hope i love you all my life
[chorus]
Couse i miss you body and soul so stroung that it takes my breath away
And i breath you into my heart and i pray for the strenghth to stand today
Couse i love you weither its wrong or right and though i cant be with you tonight
And though my heart is by your side
[chorus]

Kirsten Dunst - Dream Of Me

'And maybe when he dreams, he dreams of me...'
W x




Let me sleep
For when I sleep I dream that you are here
You're mine
And all my fear is left behind
I float
On air
The nightengale sings gentle lullabies
So let me close my eyes...
And sleep, perchance to dream
So I can see the face I long to touch
To kiss
But only dreams can bring me this
So let the moon shine
Softly on the boy I long to see
And maybe when he dreams
He'll dream of me.


I hide beneath the clouds
And whisper to the evening stars
They tell me love is just a dream away...dream away...
A dream away.


So let the moon shine
Softly on the boy I long to see
And maybe when he dreams...
He'll dream of me.


Ohhhhhhhhhhh dream of me.

Saturday

David Gray and Annie Lennox - Full Steam




All our lives we’ve dreamed about it
Just to find that it was never real
This sure ain’t no great Valhalla
Coming closer each turn of the wheel
Forlorn, adrift on seas of beige
In this our Golden Age


Even in our darkest hour
Never thought that it could get so bad
Bullied, suckered, pimped and patronised
Every day your tawdry little lives
So loose your head
And step within
The silence deafening


Now you saw it coming
And I saw it coming
We all saw it coming
But we still bought it
Now you saw it coming
And I saw it coming but still
Running full steam ahead


In and out of consciousness
It breaks my heart to see you like this
Crying, wringing hands and cursing fate
Always so little far too late
It’s 3am I’m wide awake
There’s still one call to make


Now you saw it coming
And I saw it coming
We all saw it coming
But we still bought it
Now you saw it coming
And I saw it coming
We all saw it coming
But we still bought it


Now you saw it coming
And I saw it coming
But still running full steam
Now you saw it coming
And I saw it coming but still
Running full steam
Now you
And I
We all saw it coming
But we still bought it
Now you
And I
We all saw it coming
But we still bought it

Hue and Cry - Stumble Through The Dance

'Indeed...a great song.'
W x





In a hall somewhere, breathing perfumed air
Is a girl I've known from before she's born
She steps bold and free, easy on her feet
And the future's closer with every beat


Keep myself upright, face up to the light
And I'll stumble through the dance with you
Let me be inspired, let me not be tired
And I'll stumble through the dance with you


In a yard in town, with her face at frown
Is a girl who tries to live a perfect life
Some she wins, some lose, leaving cut and bruise
But I know she'll be anything she choose


Every hip that shakes, every give and take
Helps me stumble through the dance with you
Forward pause and back, till my heart goes craic
And I'll stumble through the dance with you


Somewhere on a hill, walking slow and still
Is a girl who knows nothing's ever closed
And we walk in time, and we speak in rhyme
When our dance begins no-one's left behind

Thursday

Take That - I'd Wait For Life

'So glad these boys came back...'
W x




There's a place we used to be
There's a face that I used to see
There's a picture with you by my side
There's a moment that I want to find


I don't know where to start or how to begin
But I know I love you still


If you ever turn away
If you ever change your mind
If the road ahead becomes too hard to climb
If there's something in your heart that tells you to stop
Oh to hold you close tonight
I'd wait for life


There's a voice shouting inside my head
There's a space on your side of the bed
There's a hope everytime there's a sound
There's a silence that's playing too loud


I don't know where to start or how you may be
But I know I Love you still


If you ever turn away
If you ever change your mind
If the road ahead becomes too hard to climb
If there's something in your heart that tells you to stop
Oh to hold you close tonight
I'd wait for life


If I close my eyes I'll dream a little deeper baby
Cause you are always on my mind
Yeah you are always on my mind
For Life


If there's something in your heart that tells you to stop
Oh to hold you close
Oh to hold you close tonight
I'd wait for life

Jane Taylor - Fall On Me

'I trust you will enjoy this....'
W x





Fall on me this time

I will keep you dry
Through the rain
And back again
Fall on me this time
Lay your hand in mine
I can too
Be strong like you
Rest your heart
You can always start
Again
Follow me this time
I will be your eyes
I can see
If you let me
chorus
And all the things you taught me
And all the things you braved
I kept them all inside me
They’re with me everyday
With the things I didn’t say
Fall on me this time
I will keep you dry
Through the rain
And back again
Rest your heart
You can fall apart
chorus
And all the nights you held me
And all the times you stayed
I kept them all inside me
They’re with me everyday
With the things I didn’t say

Will Young - Tell Me The Worst

'Lovely.'
W x





Show me your hands, your nails, your scars.

Show me where it hurts.
Show me the wounds, the cuts, the trails,
That lead back to where it happened first.
I only wanna see you.
I only wanna know,
Who you really are
So tell me the worst.
I'll tell you mine.
I got close before,
But I turn back every time.
It hurts I know
It's the hardest thing you'll ever have to do
So tell me the worst,
It's your only hope.
Don't go back again.
Don't save yourself from falling.
Imagine we drove across this country,
But didn't quite make it to the sea.
Imagine we were halfway through a movie,
And then you just ran out on me.
If that's all you're gonna give me...
Is that all you wanna take?
'Cos that's just not enough.
So tell me the worst.
I'll tell you mine.
I got close before,
But I turn back every time.
It hurts, I know.
It's the bravest thing you'll ever have to do.
So fake your words.
Have you just put off,
What you should have done years ago?
I wrote this song about you
Actually it's also where I fall down
Why don't I pull out
I show my worst
I got close before,
But I turn back every time
It hurts I know
It's the bravest thing you'll ever have to do
So tell me the worst,
I'll tell you mine
I got close before,
But I turn back every time
It hurts, I know.
It's the hardest place you'll ever have to go.
So tell me the worst.
It's your only hope.
Don't go back again.
Don't save yourself from falling...
Tell me the worst.
Tell me the worst.

Sheena Easton - When He Shines

'From the mists of time...'
W x





This man's a child, this man is old

Sometimes he's mild, sometimes he's bold
This man I love, sometimes in spite
I wish he would stick to his guns, or abandon the fight
But when he shines, oh when he shines
Yes when he shines, he shines so bright
Sometimes a tramp, sometimes a dude
He changes colour just like a cameleon, can't find the mood
He is a song that's not easy to write
He is a moon in the morning, and the sun out at night
But when he shines, when he shines, oh when he shines, he shines so bright
This man's a gentleman, this man is strong
This temperamental man plays me along
But when he shines, when he shines, oh when he shines, he shines so bright
Yes when he shines, when he shines, oh when he shines, he shines so bright
(Instrumental break)
But when he shines, oh when he shines
Yes when he shines, he shines so bright

Wednesday

Tom Baxter - Better




Our love has changed,

It's not the same,
And the only way to say it
Is say it .. it's better.
I can't concede,
This way I feel,
For all the time we spent, together,
Forever .. just gets better.
See what I'm trying to say is:
You make things .. better
And no matter what the day is,
With you here .. it's better.
I'll stand by you,
If you stand by me.
I think time that I, reveal it,
'Coz I believe it
It's better
See what I'm trying to say is:
You make things .. better
And no matter what the day is,
With you here .. it's better
Ooh the more I .. talk .. to .. you
The more in love with
E .. vry .. thing .. you .. do
Doo doo doo doo doo doo
See what I'm trying to say is:
You make things .. better
And no matter what the day is,
With you here .. it's better
Our love has changed
It's not the same
And the only way to say it
Is say it .. it's better

Olivia Broadfield - Don't Cry

'It is quite aacceptable to cry...but I fervently hope you are not!'
W x





Clap hands daddy comes

With a pocketful of plums
Don't Cry
Most days I'm OK
Come steal my heart
How I wish everything was simple
How I wish everything didn't end in lies
How I wish I could just keep turning back time
How I wish I could be more like me
When I didn't have to worry about myself
How I wish I could just keep turning back time
Forgive me if I cannot try any harder
You make it seem like everything I do means nothing at all
As complications go this can't get any sweeter
Don't Cry
Clap hands, daddy comes
With a pocketful of plums
Don't Cry
Flashback, twisted up
I'm so close to giving up
Don't Cry
Right now I am complicated
Right now I am giving this heart away
How I wish I could just keep turning back time
Right now I'm the walking wounded
Mind set on getting out alive
How I wish I could just keep turning back time
Forgive me if I cannot try any harder
You make it seem like everything I do means nothing at all
As complications go this can't get any sweeter
Don't Cry
Clap hands, daddy comes
With a pocketful of plums
Don't Cry
Flashback, twisted up
I'm so close to giving up
Don't Cry
I should just let go
I should just let go
Forgive me if I cannot try any harder
You make it seem like everything I do means nothing at all
As complications go this can't get any sweeter
Don't Cry
Clap hands, daddy comes
With a pocketful of plums
Don't Cry
Flashback, twisted up
I'm so close to giving up
Don't Cry

K T Tunstall - Black Horse and the Cherry Tree

'Be amazed!'
W x




(woo-hoo,woo-hoo)

(woo-hoo,woo-hoo)


well my heart knows me better than I know myself
so I'm gonna let it do all the talking.


(woo-hoo,woo-hoo)


I came across a place in the middle of nowhere
with a big black horse and a cherry tree.


(woo-hoo,woo-hoo)


I fell in fear upon my back
I said don't look back, just keep on walking.


(woo-hoo,woo-hoo)


when the big black horse that looked this way,
said hey lady, will you marry me?


(woo-hoo,woo-hoo)


but I said no, no, no,no-no-no
I said no, no, you're not the one for me
no, no, no,no-no-no
I said no, no, you're not the one for me


(ooooo,woo-hoo)


and my heart had a problem, in the early hours,
so I stopped it dead for a beat or two.


(woo-hoo,woo-hoo)


but I cut some cord, and I shouldn't have done it,
and it won't forgive me after all these years


(woo-hoo,woo-hoo)


so I sent it to a place in the middle of nowhere
with a big black horse and a cherry tree.


(woo-hoo,woo-hoo)


now it won't come back , cause it's oh so happy
and now I've got a hole for the world to see

(woo-hoo,woo-hoo)


and it said no, no, no,no-no-no
I said no, no, you're not the one for me
no, no, no,no-no-no
said no, no, you're not the one for me


(ooooo,woo-hoo) (not the one for me, yeah)
(ooooo,woo-hoo)

said no,no, no,no, no, no, no
you're not the one for me
said no,no, no,no, no, no, no
you're not the one for me
big black horse and a cherry tree
I can't quite get there cause my heart's forsaken me
big black horse and a cherry tree
I can't quite get there cause my heart's forsaken me

Alison Krauss and Union Station - Restless

'Another ditty that means a lot to me...and I share it with you,'
W x




Honey, I know you've been alone some,

Why don't you 'phone some, 'cause I love you.
An' honey, I know I've been away some,
I've had to pay some and you have too.
But the one thing I know: that when I, I turn out the light,
Visions of you, dear, dance in the night.
I've been put down, pushed around, apprehended and led downtown.
An' I can't help it if I'm out of sight,
'Cause I'm restless tonight.
I just can't stand bein' alone.
Gonna have to change that some day.
There's a restless feelin' in my bones an' I know,
That at times, it just won't go away.
So if it's all the same, honey, I can't take the blame, baby,
I can't play your game, honey, what's true is true.
And if, in the end, the temptation wears you thin, honey,
I'll, I'll just pretend that I'll leave it up to you.
But the one thing I know: that when I, I turn out the light,
Visions of you, dear, dance in the night.
I've been put down, pushed around, apprehended and led downtown.
Can't help it if I'm full of fire.
But the one thing I know: that when I, I turn out the light,
Visions of you, dear, dance in the night.
I've been put down, pushed around, apprehended and led downtown.
An' I can't help it if I'm out of sight,
'Cause I'm restless tonight.

Kiss My Name - Anthony And The Johnsons

'S'wonderful!......'
W x



 


Kiss my name

Mama in the afterglow
When the grass is green with grow
And my tears have turned to snow
I’m only a child
Born upon a grave
Dancing through the stations
Calling out my name
Oh mama kiss my name
I am trying to be sane
I’m trying to kiss my friends
And when broken, make amends
Kiss my name, the curtains white
The turtle doves embroider light
As I lie, murdered in ground
The rain compacting sodden sound
Of songs I sang the years before
When it was time to rain
Upon the coal that I became

Down In The Depths - Lisa Stansfield

'I much prefer it up here.......'
W x






With a million neon rainbows burning below me,

And a million blazing taxis raising a roar,
Here i sit, above the town,
In my pet-palliated gown,
Down in the depths
On the ninetieth floor
While the crowds in all the nightclubs punish the parquet,
And the bars are packed with couples calling for more,
I'm deserted and depressed
In my regal-eagle mess,
 Down in the depths
On the ninetieth floor
When the only one you wanted wants another,
What's the use of swank and cash in a bank galore?
Why, even the janitor's wife
Has a perfectly good love life,
And here am I, facing tomorrow,
Alone in my sorrow,
Down in the depths
On the ninetieth floor
(repeat)
Down in the depth
On the ninetieth floor
With a million neon rainbows burning below me

There's no one in town I know

You gave us some place to go
I never said thank you for that
'thought I might get one more chance


What would you think of me now?
So lucky, so strong, so proud
I never said thank you for that
Now I'll never have a chance


May angels lead you in
Hear you me my friends
On sleepless roads, the sleepless go
May angels lead you in


So what would you think of me now?
So lucky, so strong, so proud

I never said thank you for that
Now I'll never have a chance


May angels lead you in
Hear you me my friends
On sleepless roads the sleepless go
May angels lead you in


(May angels lead you in)
May angels lead you in
(May angels lead you in)
May angels lead you in


And if you were with me tonight
I'd sing to you just one more time
A song for a heart so big
God couldn't let it live


May angels lead you in
Hear you me my friends
On sleepless roads the sleepless go
May angels lead you in


May angels lead you in
Hear you me my friends
On sleepless roads the sleepless go
