Jason Mraz - The Rainbow Connection

'Someday we'll find it...'
W x




Why are there so many songs about rainbows
and what's on the other side?
Rainbows are visions, but only illusions,
and rainbows have nothing to hide.
So we've been told and some choose to believe it.
I know they're wrong, wait and see.
Someday we'll find it, the rainbow connection.
The lovers, the dreamers and me.
Who said that every wish would be heard
and answered when wished on the morning star?
Somebody thought of that and someone believed it.
Look what it's done so far.
What's so amazing that keeps us star gazing
and what do we think we might see?
Someday we'll find it, the rainbow connection.
The lovers, the dreamers and me.
All of us under its spell. We know that it's probably magic.
Have you been half asleep and have you heard voices?
I've heard them calling my name.
Is this the sweet sound that called the young sailors.
The voice might be one and the same.
I've heard it too many times to ignore it.
It's something that I'm supposed to be.
Someday we'll find it, the rainbow connection.
The lovers, the dreamers and me.

Ricky Martin / Meja - Private Emotion

'Not so private now...We are not surprised.' W x




Every endless night has a dawning day
Every darkest sky has a shining ray
And it shines on you, baby can't you see
You're the only one, who can shine for me
It's a private emotion that fills you tonight
And a silence falls between us
As the shadows steal the light
And where ever you may find it
Where ever it may lead
Let your private emotion come to me
Come to me
Come to me
Come to me
When your soul is tired and your heart is weak
Do you think of love as a one way street
Well it runs both ways, open up your eyes
Can't you see me here, how can you deny
It's a private emotion that fills you tonight
And a silence falls between us
As the shadows steal the light
And where ever you may find it
Where ever it may lead
Let your private emotion come to me
Come to me
Come to me
Come to me
Every endless night has a dawning day
Every darkest sky has a shining ray
It takes a lot to laugh as your tears go by
But you can find me here till your tears run dry
It's a private emotion that fills you tonight
And a silence falls between us
As the shadows steal the light
And where ever you may find it
Where ever it may lead
Let your private emotion come to me
Let your private emotion come to me
Let your private emotion come to me
Come to me
Come to me

Sting - Fragile

'For the Earth....'
W x




If blood will flow when flesh and steel are one
Drying in the colour of the evening sun
Tomorrow's rain will wash the stains away
But something in our minds will always stay
Perhaps this final act was meant
To clinch a lifetime's argument
That nothing comes from violence and nothing ever could
For all those born beneath an angry star
Lest we forget how fragile we are


On and on the rain will fall
Like tears from a star like tears from a star
On and on the rain will say
How fragile we are how fragile we are


On and on the rain will fall
Like tears from a star like tears from a star
On and on the rain will say
How fragile we are how fragile we are
How fragile we are how fragile we are

New Order - Krafty

'You've got to look at life the way it oughta be'
W x




Some people get up at the break of day
Gotta go to work before it gets too late
Sitting in a car and driving down the road
It ain't the way it has to be


But that's what you do to earn your daily wage
That's the kind of world that we're living in today
Isn't where you wanna be
And isn't what you wanna do


Just give me one more day (one more day)
Give me another night (just another night)
I need a second chance (second chance)
This time I'll get it right (This time I'll get it right)


I'll say it one last time (one last time)
I've got to let you know (I've got to let you know)
I've got to change your mind (I've got to change your mind)
I'll never let you go


You've got to look at life the way it oughta be
Looking at the stars from underneath the tree
There's a world inside and a world out there
With that on tv you just don't care


They've got violence, wars and killing too
All shrunk down in a two-foot tube
But out there the world is a beautiful place
With mountains, lakes and the human race
And this is where I wanna be
And this is what I wanna do


Just give me one more day (one more day)
Give me another night (just another night)
I need a second chance (second chance)
This time I'll get it right (This time I'll get it right)


I'll say it one last time (one last time)
I've got to let you know (I've got to let you know)
I've got to change your mind (change your mind)
I'll never let you go


Just give me one more chance (one more chance)
Give me another night (just another night)
With just one more day (one more day)
Maybe we'll get it right (You know I'll get it right)


I'll say it one last time (one last time)
I've got to let you know (I've got to let you know)
If I could change your mind (change your mind)
I'll never let you go

Sade - By Your Side

'Bliss'
W x




You think I'd leave your side baby
You know me better than that
You think I'd leave you down when you're down on your knees
I wouldn't do that


I'll tell you you're right when you want
And if only you could see into me


Oh when you're cold, I'll be there
Hold you tight to me


When you're on the outside baby and you can't get in
I will show you, you're so much better than you know
When you're lost and you're alone and you cant get back again
I will find you darling and I will bring you home


And if you want to cry
I am here to dry your eyes
And in no time, you'll be fine


You think I'd leave your side baby
You know me better than that
You think id leave you down when you're down on your knees
I wouldn't do that


I'll tell you you're right when you want
And if only you could see into me


Oh when you're cold, I'll be there
Hold you tight to me
Oh when you're low
I'll be there by your side baby


Oh when you're cold, I'll be there
Hold you tight to me
Oh when you're low
I'll be there by your side baby

Bad Things - Jace Everett

When you came in the air went out.
And every shadow filled up with doubt.
I don't know who you think you are,
But before the night is through,
I wanna do bad things with you.


I'm the kind to sit up in his room.
Heart sick an' eyes filled up with blue.
I don't know what you've done to me,
But I know this much is true:
I wanna do bad things with you.


When you came in the air went out.
And all those shadows there filled up with doubt.
I don't know who you think you are,
But before the night is through,
I wanna do bad things with you.
I wanna do real bad things with you.
Ow, ooh.


I don't know what you've done to me,
But I know this much is true:
I wanna do bad things with you.
I wanna do real bad things with you.

Kina Grannis - Valentine

'Why didn't I hear this a month ago?'
W x




Love, it's a special day
We should celebrate and appreciate
That you and me found something pretty neat
And I know some say this day is arbitrary


But it's a good excuse to put our love to use
Baby, I know what to do
Baby, I will love you
I'll love you, I'll love you


Love, I don't need those things
I don't need no ring
I don't need anything
But you with me
'Cause in your company
I feel happy, oh so happy and complete


And it's a good excuse to put our love to use
Baby, I know what to do
Baby, I will love you
I'll love you, I'll love you


Yeah, it's a good excuse to put our love to use
Baby, I know what to do
Baby, I will love you
I'll love you, I'll love you


So won't you be my honey bee?
Giving me kisses all the time
Be mine, be my Valentine


So won't you be my honey bee?
Giving me sweet kisses all the time
Be mine, be my Valentine

Mary J Blige - I Am.

'I was...'
W x




Ain't nobody gonna treat you better
Ain't nobody gonna touch you better
Ain't nobody gonna love you better
Boy, than I am, than I am


When you're out at night and you're in the streets
And you have time to yourself
Think of all the love that you get from me
That you can't find nowhere else


When you're far away and I'm not around
And temptation fills your heart
Think of all the ways that I'm faithful, babe
And to replace me would be hard, 'cause there's nobody


Ain't nobody gonna treat you better
(No, nobody)
Ain't nobody gonna touch you better
(Nobody)
Ain't nobody gonna love you better
(No)
Boy, than I am, than I am


(Nobody, nobody)
Than I am
(Nobody, nobody)
Than I am
(Nobody, nobody)
Ohh, nobody's gonna treat you as good as I am


You can try to act single if you wanna
You can go ahead and mingle if you wanna
You can even behave like
You don't care


But you know
(But you know)
Like I know
(Like I know)
That you ain't that foolish, who you foolin'?
You won't ruin what's been here all along
You ain't movin' from what you got at home


Ain't nobody gonna treat you better
Ain't nobody gonna touch you better
(Ain't nobody gonna touch you)
Ain't nobody gonna love you better
Boy, than I am, than I am


(Nobody, nobody)
Than I am
(Nobody, nobody)
Than I am
(Nobody's gonna touch you)
(Nobody, nobody)
Ohh, nobody's gonna treat you as good as I am


I just want you to know, baby, I love you so
There is no need to go lookin' for nothing more
'Cause I've got everything you'll ever need right here
But if you feel that you need to leave, just know


Ain't nobody gonna treat you better
Ain't nobody gonna touch you better
(Ain't nobody)
Ain't nobody gonna love you better
Boy, than I am, than I am


Ain't nobody gonna treat you better
Ain't nobody gonna touch you better
Ain't nobody gonna love you better
Boy, than I am, than I am


(Nobody, nobody)
Than I am
(Nobody, nobody)
Than I am
(Nobody, nobody)
Ohh, nobody's gonna treat you as good as I am

Ohh, nobody's gonna treat you as good as I am

Michael Buble - Everything

'You light me up when you ring my bell.'
W x




You're a falling star, You're the get away car.
You're the line in the sand when I go too far.
You're the swimming pool, on an August day.
And you're the perfect thing to say.


And you play it coy, but it's kinda cute.
Ah, When you smile at me you know exactly what you do.
Baby don't pretend, that you don't know it's true.
Cause you can see it when I look at you.


[Chorus:]
And in this crazy life, and through these crazy times
It's you, it's you, You make me sing.
You're every line, you're every word, you're everything.


You're a carousel, you're a wishing well,
And you light me up, when you ring my bell.
You're a mystery, you're from outer space,
You're every minute of my everyday.


And I can't believe, uh that I'm your man,
And I get to kiss you baby just because I can.
Whatever comes our way, ah we'll see it through,
And you know that's what our love can do.


[Chorus:]
And in this crazy life, and through these crazy times
It's you, it's you, You make me sing
You're every line, you're every word, you're everything.


So, La, La, La, La, La, La, La
So, La, La, La, La, La, La, La


[Chorus:]
And in this crazy life, and through these crazy times
It's you, it's you, You make me sing.
You're every line, you're every word, you're everything.
You're every song, and I sing along.
'Cause you're my everything.
Yeah, yeah


So, La, La, La, La, La, La, La
So, La, La, La, La, La, La, La, La, La, La, La

Simon Webbe - After All This Time

'I'm loving it ...still'
W x




After all the broken stones, that were thrown for no good reason,
Inside, she is loving him still, After all this time,
And though her heart bears the scars, no sign of healing,
It’s alright, she is loving him still, After all this time


CHORUS
Trying to push the past away,
Still waiting for the lights to change,
But she’ll try, try,
For the sake of their pride, pride,
Learning to barely feel the pain,
The thicker the skin the less the strain,
And though it’s really hurting,
She ain’t breakin, breakin, breakin,
She is loving him still,
After all this time,


Now he knows, his weakness shows, selfish soul,
Never changing, but that’s fine,
Cos she’s loving him still, after all this time
And to the outside eye, you see a family getting by,
And it all seems perfect, and that’s how she wants it,
Cos she’s loving him still,
After all this time,


CHORUS


After all, after all, after all this time


Oh, bones, have to grow,
Age it shows, though we try and hide it,
Inside, she is loving him still, After all this time
And behind his tired eyes,
She sees the boy with his arms wide,
Who made her feel like an angel,


Oh that’s why…
She is loving him still,
For the rest of her life,
She is loving him still,
For the last so many miles,
She is loving him still,
After all this time

Karla Bonoff - The Water Is Wide

'A favourite song from years past.'
W x




The water is wide, I can't cross o'er
And neither have I wings to fly
Give me a boat that can carry two
And both shall row, my love and I
Oh love is gentle and love is kind
The sweetest flower when first it's new
but love grows old and waxes cold and fades away
like morning dew
There is a ship and she sails the sea
She's loaded deep as deep can be
But not as deep as the love I'm in
I know not how I sink or swim
The water is wide, I can't cross o'er
And neither have I wings to fly
Give me a boat that can carry two
And both shall row, my love and I
And both shall row, my love and I

Chumbawumba - Hanging on the Old Barbwire.

If you want to find the general
I know where he is
I know where he is
I know where he is
If you want to find the general
I know where he is
He's pinning another medal on his chest
I saw him, I saw him
Pinning another medal on his chest
Pinning another medal on his chest
If you want to find the colonel
I know where he is
I know where he is
I know where he is
If you want to find the colonel
I know where he is
He's sitting in comfort stuffing his bloody gut
I saw him, I saw him
Sitting in comfort stuffing his bloody gut
If you want to find the seargent
I know where he is
I know where he is
I know where he is
If you want to find the seargent
I know where he is
He's drinking all the company rum
I saw him, I saw him
Drinking all the company rum
Drinking all the company rum
If you want to find the private
I know where he is
I know where he is
I know where he is
If you want to find the private
I know where he is
He's hanging on the old barbed wire
I saw him, I saw him
Hanging on the old barbed wire
Hanging on the old barbed wire

Will Young - All The Things You Are

'I'll know that moment divine...when all the things you are, are mine.'
W x



Time and again I've longed for adventure,
Something to make my heart beat the faster.
What did I long for? I never really knew.
Finding your love I've found my adventure,
Touching your hand, my heart beats the faster,
All that I want in all of this world is you.
(Chorus)
You are the promised kiss of springtime
That makes the lonely winter seem long.
You are the breathless hush of evening
That trembles on the brink of a lovely song.
You are the angel glow that lights a star,
The dearest things I know are what you are.
Some day my happy arms will hold you,
And some day I'll know that moment divine,
When all the things you are, are mine!
