The Fray - Over My Head


I never knew
I never knew that everything was falling through
That everyone I knew was waiting on a queue
To turn and run when all I needed was the truth
But that´s how it´s got to be
It´s coming down to nothing more than apathy
I´d rather run the other way than stay and see
The smoke and who´s still standing when it clears and

Everyone knows I´m in
Over my head
Over my head
With eight seconds left in overtime
She´s on your mind
She´s on your mind

Let´s rearrange
I wish you were a stranger I could disengage
Just say that we agree and then never change
Soften a bit until we all just get along
But that´s disregard
You find another friend and you discard
As you lose the argument in a cable car
Hanging above as the canyon comes between and

Everyone knows I´m in
Over my head
Over my head
With eight seconds left in overtime
She´s on your mind
She´s on your mind

Everyone knows I´m in
Over my head
Over my head
With eight seconds left in overtime
She´s on your mind
She´s on

And suddenly I become a part of your past
I´m becoming the part that don´t last
I´m losing you and its effortless
Without a sound we lose sight of the ground
In the throw around
Never thought that you wanted to bring it down
I won´t let it go down till we torch it ourselves

Everyone knows I´m in
Over my head
Over my head
With eight seconds left in overtime
She´s on your mind
She´s on your mind

Everyone knows
She´s on your mind

Everone knows I´m in
Over my head
I´m in over my head
I´m over my

Everyone knows I´m in
Over my head
Over my head
With eight seconds left in overtime
She´s on your mind
She´s on your mind

Mr Blue Sky


Sun is shinin' in the sky
there ain't a cloud in sight
it's stopped rainin' ev'rybody's in a play
and don't you know
it's a beautiful new day hey,hey
Runnin' down the avenue
see how the sun shines brightly in the city
on the streets where once was pity
mister blue sky is living here today hey, hey
Mister blue sky please tell us why
you had to hide away for so long
where did we go wrong?
Hey you with the pretty face
welcome to the human race
a celebration, mister blue sky's up there waitin'
and today is the day we've waited for
Hey there mister blue
we're so pleased to be with you
look around see what you do
ev'rybody smiles at you
Mister blue sky, mister blue sky
mister blue sky
Mister blue, you did it right
but soon comes mister night creepin' over
now his hand is on your shoulder
never mind i'll remember you this
i'll remember you this way
Mister blue sky please tell us why
you had to hide away for so long
where did we go wrong?
Hey there mister blue
we're so pleased to be with you
look around see what you do
ev'rybody smiles at you

James Morrison - Please Don't Stop The Rain


I don't know where I crossed the line
Was it something that I said
Or didn't say this time
And I don't know if it's me or you
But I can see the skies are changing
In all the shades of blue
And I don't know which way it's gonna go

If it's gonna be a rainy day
There's nothing we can do to make it change
We can pray for sunny weather
But that won't stop the rain
Feeling like you got no place to run
I can be your shelter 'til it's done
We can make this last forever
So please don't stop the rain

(Let it fall, let it fall, let it fall)
Please don't stop the rain
(Let it fall, let it fall, let it fall)
Please don't stop the rain

I thought that time was on our side
I've put in far too many years
To let this pass us by
You see live is a crazy thing
There'll be good time and there'll be bad times
And everything in between
And I don't know which way it's gonna go

If it's gonna be a rainy day
There's nothing we can do to make it change
We can pray for sunny weather
But that won't stop the rain
Feeling like you got no place to run
I can be your shelter 'til it's done
We can make this last forever
So please don't stop the rain

(Let it fall, let it fall, let it fall)
Please don't stop the rain
(Let it fall, let it fall, let it fall)
Please don't stop the rain

Oh we'rea little closer now
And finally what life's it's all about
Yeah I know you just can't stand it
If things don't go your way
But we've got no control over what happens anyway

If it's gonna be a rainy day
There's nothing we can do to make it change
We can pray for sunny weather
But that won't stop the rain
Feeling like you got no place to run
I can be your shelter 'til it's done
We can make this last forever
So please don't stop the rain

(Let it fall, let it fall, let it fall)
Please don't stop the rain
(Let it fall, let it fall, let it fall)
Please don't stop the rain

(Let it fall, let it fall, let it fall)
Can't stop it, can't stop it,
just can't stop the rain
(Let it fall, let it fall, let it fall)
Let it fall, please don't stop the rain

THE FRAY how to save a life


Step one you say we need to talk
He walks you say sit down it's just a talk
He smiles politely back at you
You stare politely right on through
Some sort of window to your right
As he goes left and you stay right
Between the lines of fear and blame
And you begin to wonder why you came

Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life

Let him know that you know best
Cause after all you do know best
Try to slip past his defense
Without granting innocence
Lay down a list of what is wrong
The things you've told him all along
And pray to God he hears you
And pray to God he hears you

Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life

As he begins to raise his voice
You lower yours and grant him one last choice
Drive until you lose the road
Or break with the ones you've followed
He will do one of two things
He will admit to everything
Or he'll say he's just not the same
And you'll begin to wonder why you came

Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life

Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life

How to save a life
How to save a life

Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life

Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life

Donovan - Hurdy Gurdy Man


Thrown like a star in my vast sleep
I open my eyes to take a peep
To find that I was by the sea
Gazing with tranquillity.
'Twas then when the Hurdy Gurdy Man
Came singing songs of love,
Then when the Hurdy Gurdy Man
Came singing songs of love.
Hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, gurdy he sang.
Hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, gurdy he sang.
Hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, gurdy he sang.
Histories of ages past
Unenlightened shadows cast
Down through all eternity
The crying of humanity.
'Tis then when the Hurdy Gurdy Man
Comes singing songs of love,
Then when the Hurdy Gurdy Man
Comes singing songs of love.
Hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, gurdy he sang.
Hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy.
Hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, gurdy he sang.
Hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, gurdy he sang.
Here comes the roly poly man and he's singing songs of love,
Roly poly, roly poly, roly poly, poly he sang.
Hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, gurdy he sang,
Hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, gurdy he sang


Sinead o Connor - nothing compares


It's been seven hours and fifteen days
since u took your love away
i go out every night and sleep all day
since u took your love away
since u been gone i can do whatever i want
i can see whomever i choose
i can eat my dinner in a fancy restaurant
but nothing
i said nothing can take away these blues
'cos nopthing compares
nothing compares 2 u
It's been so lonely without u here
like a bird without a song
nothing can stop these lonely tears from falling
tell me baby where did i go wrong
i could put my arms around every boy i see
but they'd only remind me of you
i went to the doctor guess what he told me
guess what he told me
he said girl u better try to have fun no matter what u do
but he's a fool
'cos nothing compares 2 u
All the flowers that u planted mama
in the back yard
all died when u went away
i know that living with u baby was sometimes hard
but i'm willing to give it another try
'cos nothing compares
nothing compares 2 u
Brandi Carlile - The Story


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
