I'M STUPID - PRIMESTH

I'm stupid, you're smarter
I'm stupid thinking there's a way,
That this could turn out right
I'm dreaming you woke up,
And I should have known from the start,
you were never mine
(chorus)Cause if I could make you love me,
You're out of reasons to stay make it
easy on yourself and don't worry 'bout me
Can't make you feel something you don't
I'm crying,but don't pity
I'm dying, but just walk away
I'm gonna be alright
Cause I was dreaming and you woke up
And I'm gonna miss you but I
I'm gonna be Alright
(repeat chorus)
Cause if I could make you love me,
You're not the one here to blame, I will make
it on my own
Don't worry bout me

To The Sky

One perfect morning I was all alone
Listening to the blaze of summer
Drifting
I was falling
I was floating in a golden haze
Breathing in the sky blue sounds
Of memories of other days

And in my dreams I was a child
Flowers in my mouth and in my eyes
And I was floating through the colours of a sky
Up to the stars and angels

Up up up to heaven
Up up up forever
Up up up to heaven
Up up up forever

Turning in my climb
I looked down on a lake
And traced upon the water there
I saw your face
And sang in recollection
Of the times we shared...
Then pushed on ever upward
To the sky

And in my dreams I was a child
Flowers in my mouth and in my eyes
And I was floating through the colours of a sky
Up to the stars and angels

Up up up to heaven
Up up up forever
Up up up to heaven
Up up up forever

A special Triple Shot, in memory of Maurice Gibbs of the Bee Gees.



Words

Smile an everlasting smile
A smile can bring you near to me
Don't ever let me find you gone
'Cause that could bring a tear to me

This world has lost it's glory,
Let's start a brand new story, now my love
Right now there'll be no other time
And I can show you all my love

Talk in everlasting words
And dedicate them all to me
And I will give you all my life
I'm here if you should call to me

You think that I don't even mean
A single word I say
It's only words and words are all I have
To take your heart away

-----------------------------------------------------------------
For Whom The Bell Tolls

I stumble in the night
never really knew what it would've been like
youre no longer there to break my fall
The heartache over you
I gave it every thing but i couldnt get through
I never saw the signs
you're the last to know when love is blind


Through the tears and the turbulant years
when i would not wait for no one
didnt stop take a look at myself
see me losing you

(Chorus)
when a lonely heart breaks
its the one that fortakes
its the dream that we stole
and im missing you you more
and the fire that will roar
theres a hole in my soul
for you its goodbye
for me its to cry
for whom the bell tolls

hold me

ive seen you in a magazine
a picture at a party where you shouldnt have been
hanging on the arm of someone else

im still in love with you
wont you come back to youre little boy blue
ive come to feel inside
this precious love was never mine

now i know but a little to late that i could not live without you
in the dark or the broad daylight
i promise i'll be there

(Chorus)
when a lonely heart breaks
its the one that forsakes
its the dream that we stole
and im missing you you more
and the fire that will roar
theres a hole in my soul
for you its goodbye
for me its to cry
for whom the bell tolls

never knew ther'd be times like this
when i couldnt reach out to know one
am i never gonna find someone that knows me like you do
are you leaving me a helpless child
when it took so long to save me
fight the devil and the deep blue sea
i'll follow you anywhere
i promise i'll be there

(Chorus)
when a lonely heart breaks
its the one that forsakes
its the dream that we stole
and im missing you you more
and the fire that will roar
theres a hole in my soul
for you its goodbye
for me its to cry
for whom the bell tolls

when a lonely heart breaks
its the one that forsakes
its the dream that we stole
and im missing you you more
and the fire that will roar
theres a hole in my soul
for you its goodbye
for me its to cry
for whom the bell tolls

when a lonely heart breaks
its the one that forsakes
its the dream that we stole
and im missing you you more
and the fire that will roar
theres a hole in my soul .........

Tragedy


Here I lie
In a lost and lonely part of town
Held in time
In a world of tears I slowly drown

Goin'home
I just can't make it all alone
I really should be holding you
Holding you, loving you, loving you

Tragedy
When the feeling's gone and you can't go on
It's tragedy
When the morning cries and you don't know why
It's hard to bear
With no one to love you you're goin' nowhere

Tragedy
When you lose control and you got no soul
It's tragedy
When the morning cries and you don't know why
It's hard to bear
With no one beside you you're goin' nowhere

Night and day
There's a burning down inside of me (uuh)
Burning love
With a yearning that won't let me be

Down I go
And I just can't take it all alone
I really should be holding you
Holding you, loving you, loving you

Tragedy
When the feeling's gone and you can't go on
It's tragedy
When the morning cries and you don't know why
It's hard to bear
With no one to love you you're goin' nowhere

Tragedy
When you lose control and you got no soul
It's tragedy
When the morning cries and you don't know why
It's hard to bear
With no one beside you you're goin' nowhere
Uuuuhh

Tragedy
When the feeling's gone and you can't go on
It's tragedy
When the morning cries and you don't know why
It's hard to bear
With no one to love you you're goin' nowhere

Tragedy
When you lose control and you got no soul
It's tragedy
When the morning cries and you don't know why
It's hard to bear
With no one beside you you're goin' nowhere
Uuuuuuhh

Tragedy
When the feeling's gone and you can't go on
It's tragedy
When the morning cries and you don't know why
It's hard to bear
With no one to love you you're goin' nowhere

Tragedy
When you lose control and you got no soul
It's tragedy
When the morning cries and you don't know why
It's hard to bear
With no one beside you you're goin' nowhere

TOTO

"Stop Loving You"

Reflections in my mind
Thought I can't define
My heart is racing and the night goes on
I can almost hear a laugh
Coming from your photograph
Funny how a look can share a thousand meanings
Well intented lies
Contemplainting alibies
Is it really you or is it me I'm blaming?
A distant memory flashes over me
Even though you're gone I feel you deep inside

Dance beneath the light with that look in your eyes

I can't stop loving you
Time passes quickly and chances are few
I won't stop till I'm through loving you girl

There a window in a heart
I've tried to look through from the start
You're never really sure what someone else is thinking
Someone's broken something new
Another altered point of view
Just a certain someone's conscience playing
I had it in my hand
I did not understand
What lives inside the wind that cries her name
Trying to catch a shooting star
What seems so close can't be far
I'm living in a dream that's never ending

I can't stop loving you
Time passes quickly and chances are few
I won't stop till I'm through loving you girl

Dancing with that look that's in your eyes

I can't stop loving you
Time passes quickly and chances are few
I won't stop till I'm through loving you girl

I can't stop loving you
Time passes quickly and chances are few
I won't stop till I'm through loving you
Loving you
Yeah yeah yeah
Loving you
I wonder when I'll stop loving you
Yeah

We Built This City
Starship


Chorus:
We built this city, we built this city on rock an' roll
Built this city, we built this city on rock an' roll

Say you don't know me, or recognize my face
Say you don't care who goes to that kind of place
Knee deep in the hoopla, sinking in your fight
Too many runaways eating up the night

Marconi plays the mamba, listen to the radio, don't you remember
We built this city, we built this city on rock an' roll

chorus

Someone's always playing corporation games
Who cares they're always changing corporation names
We just want to dance here, someone stole the stage
They call us irresponsible, write us off the page

Marconi plays the mamba, listen to the radio, don't you remember
We built this city, we built this city on rock an' roll

chorus

It's just another Sunday, in a tired old street
Police have got the choke hold, oh, and we just lost the beat

Who counts the money underneath the bar
Who rides the wrecking ball into our guitars
Don't tell us you need us, 'cos we're just simple fools
Looking for America, crawling through your schools

(I'm looking out over that Golden Gate bridge
Out on a gorgeous sunny Saturday, I've seen that low amount of traffic)

Don't you remember (remember)

(Here's your favorite radio station, in your favorite radio city
The city by the bay, the city that rocks, the city that never sleeps)

Marconi plays the mamba, listen to the radio, don't you remember
We built this city, we built this city on rock an' roll

chorus repeats 2x

(We built, we built this city) built this city (we built, we built this city)
(repeats out)

Babyface
Nobody Knows It But Me


wish i had told her how i felt
maybe she'd be here right now

but instead

i pretend that im glad you went away
peaceful walks closin more everyday
and im dyin inside
and nobody knows it but me


like a clown i put on a show
painting it real even nobody knows
and im crying inside
and nobody knows it but me


why didnt i say
the things i needed to say
how could i let my angel get away
now my world is just a tumblin down
i can say it so clearly
but your no where around

the lights are long and the days are so sad
and i just keep thinking about the love that we had
and im missing you
and nobody knows it but me

caring a smile when im broken in two
and im nobody without like someone like you
and im tremblin inside
and nobody knows it but me


lie awake its a quarter past 3
im screamin at night if i thought u'd leave me
ya my heart is callin you
and nobody knows it but me
baby

how good can i get
you could ask my heart
and like a jigsaw puzzle its been torn all apart
a million words couldnt say
just how i feel
a million years from now you know i'll be loving you still

the nights are long and the days are so sad
and i just keep thinking about the love that we had
and im missing you
and nobody knows it but me

tomorrow morning im hitting the dusty road
gonna find you where ever
where ever you might go
and im know hold my heart
and hope you come back to me

ya say when

the nights are long and the days are so sad
and i just keep thinking about the love that we had
and im missing you
and nobody knows it but me
and nobody knows it but me
and nobody knows it but me
and nobody knows it but me

Two For Tuesday; Marc Bolan

Beyond the Risin' Sun


You've heard about the fairy land
Where people walk hand in hand
I tell you, I know where it is

It's past the apples of the sun
Near the land of the Golden One
Far beyond the risin' sun

You pass the oceans of this land
Past the man with a golden hand
Who smiles as you watch the dragons fly

And play upon the golden shore
And bang upon the magic door
Behind, where some people never die

Hey

When finally you make the scene
You see things you never dream
You thought they were only in you mind

Where unicorns and young gods play
From the break of dawn till the end of day
Always happy and kind, in their minds
------------------------------------------------------------------


Born to Boogie


Well baby, baby I was born to boogie
Baby, Baby I was born to boogie
Spend some time with you
I wanna do all I wanna do

Baby, baby I was born to motivation
Baby, baby I was born to motivation
Spend some time with you
I wanna do all I wanna do

Boogie children, Ah, Ah
Boogie children, Ah, Ah

[repeat twice again]

Baby, baby I was born to boogie
Baby, Baby I was born to boogie
Spend some time with you
I wanna do all I wanna do

Boogie children, Ah, Ah
Boogie children, Ah, Ah

LITTLE GIRL BLUE
carly simon

When I was very young
The world was younger than I
As merry as a carousel
The circus tent was strong with every star in the sky
Above the ring I loved so well

Now the young world has grown old
Gone are the tinsel and the gold
Sit there and count your fingers
What can you do old girl, you’re through
Sit there and count your little fingers
Unlucky little girl blue

Sit there and count the raindrops
Falling on you
It’s time that you knew
All you can count on is the raindrops
That fall on little girl blue
No use old girl you may as well surrender
You hope is getting slender
Why won’t somebody send a tender blue boy
To cheer a little girl blue

No use old girl you may aswell surrender
Your hope is getting slender
Why won’t somebody lend a tender
Blue boy to cheer a little girl blue

--------------------------------------------
WHAT HAS SHE GOT

I’ve got eyes they call beguiling
A string of cultured pearls
And my lips are always smiling
I’m not one of those moody girls
I’ve studied cooking in a French cafe
As bal and cheins last prodigy
A one time runner up Miss USA

What has she got that I haven’t got
Why am I not the girl that makes you heart go dancing
Puts stars in all your dreams
She’s everything you want and I’m just me

What has she got that I haven’t got
I’ve got a bed that’s warm
I’ve got a room that’s sunny
Kisses so honey sweet
I try everything to sweep you off your feet

Do you like her kind of trouble
Does she bring you to your knees
Have I been playing you all wrong
Always trying to please you

What has she got that I haven’t got
What has she got
She’s got you.....

-------------------------------
IN THE WEE SMALL HOURS OF THE MORNING

When the sun is high in the afternoon sky
You can always find something to do
But from dusk till dawn as the clock ticks on
Something happens to you

In the wee small hours of the morning
While the whole wide world is fast asleep
You lie awake and think about the boy
And never ever think of counting sheep

When your lonely heart has learned its lesson
You'd be his if only he'd call
In the wee small hours of the morning
That's the time you miss him most of all

When your lonely heart has learned its lesson
You'd be his if only he'd call
In the wee small hours of the morning
That's the time you miss him most of all

[boann]

I Will Still Love You

I promise that you'll be
My one, my only everything
I'll never be untrue
And I promise you back
That for your love
I will do anything
I would give you the stars
I would buy you the moon
Even through the longest of our nights
And even through the darkest days
Our love will find a way

And when the stars are falling, I'll keep calling
I will still love you
And when your dreams are fading, I'll be waiting
I will still love you

You are my summer breeze
My winter sun, my springtime song
My autumn touch of gold
You are my sky, my rain
The earth in which my love grows strong
The smile in my heart
And the breath in my soul
Even if we find ourselves apart
We will hold our hopes and dreams
Forever in our hearts

And when the stars are falling, I'll keep calling
I will still love you
And when your dreams are fading, I'll be waiting
I will still love you


Tell me how you feel
I finally know how love feels
Tell me if it's real
My heart tells me it's real
So real

And when the stars are falling, I'll keep calling
I will still love you
And when your dreams are fading, I'll be waiting
I will still love you

Time may take us apart, that's true
But I will always be there for you
You're in my heart, you'll be in my dreams
No matter how many miles between
I promise you that I won't forget
The day we kissed or the day we met
The sky may fall and the stars may too
But I will still
I will still love you

And when the stars are falling, I'll keep calling
I will still love you
And when your dreams are fading, I'll be waiting
I will still love you

MARIAH CAREY

"All My Life"

I've been waiting for someone to come into my life
Who would bring me joy and give me pleasure
I have taken chances on romances once or twice
And I found that in my heart it's you I treasure

You and only you can make me feel the way I do
You and only you can make it better
You and only you can do the freaky things you do
And I'm so into you and that's forever and ever

All my life
My love's been waiting for you
All my life
My heart's been waiting too

All my life:

I've been wishing on a star
I've been praying on my knees
I've got some sly and sexy tricks to show you
Most of all I'll give you anything boy that you need
To keep you right here by my side
I know you
I'll show you

You and only you can make me feel the way I do
You and only you can make it better
You and only you can do the freaky things you do
And I'm so into you and that's forever and ever

All my life
My love's been waiting for you
All my life
My heart's been waiting too
Don't you know I need you
And adore you
All my life I'll give to only you

Tiny Dancer by Elton John

Blue jean baby, L.A lady
She was a seamstress for the band
Pretty eyes, pirate smile
She'll marry a music man
Ballerina, you must've seen her
dancing in the sand
And now she's in me, always with me
Tiny dancer in my hand

Jesus freaks, out in the street
Handing tickets out for God
Turning back she just laughs
The boulevard is not that bad

Piano man, he makes his stand
In the auditorium
Looking on she sings the song
The words she knows
The tune she hums

But oh how it feels so real
Lying here, with no one near
Only you, and you can hear me
When I sing softly, slowly

Hold me closer tiny dancer
Count the headlights on the highway
Lay me down in sheets of linen
You had a busy day today
(repeat)

Blue jean baby, L.A lady
She was a seamstress for the band
Pretty eyed, pirate smile
She'll marry a music man
Ballerina, you must've seen her, she was dancing in the sand
And now she's in me, always with me
Tiny dancer in my hand

But oh how real it feels
Lying here with no one near
Only you and you can hear me
When I say softly, slowly

beautiful by Christina Aguilera (a very good song)

Everyday is so wonderful, then suddenly, it's hard to breathe
Now and then I get insecure, from all the pain
I'm so ashamed

I am beautiful no matter what they say
Words can bring me down
I am beautiful in every single way
Yes words can bring me down
So don't you bring me down today

To all your friends you're delirious
So consumed, your all alone
Trying hard to fill the emptiness, the pieces gone,
Left the puzzle undone, is that the way it is?

You are beautiful no matter what they say
Words can bring you down, No, no
Cause you are beautiful in every single way
Yes words can bring you down. Oh, no
So don't you bring me down today

No matter what we do,
No matter what we say,
We're the song inside the tune, full of beautiful mistakes
And everywhere we go, ( And everywhere we go)
the sun will always shine
( The sun will Always, Always, Shine)
And tomorrow we might awake on the other side

'Cause we are beautiful no matter what they say
Yes words won't bring us down, no
We are beautiful in every single way
Yes words can bring us down, oh , no
So don't you bring me down today

[Clear Skies]

I can't seem to get away from this song...it was played in no less than THREE shops I was in yesterday...

Real McCoy - RunAway

Run away, Run away, run away and save your life.
Run away, run away, run away if you want to survive.
Run away, Run away, run away and save your life.
Run away, run away, run away if you want to survive.

Money, sex, in full control, a generation without soul,
perfect people in a perfect world, behind closed doors all in control,
life, in a world of luxury, cold cash money mentality,
you gotta keep the faith, you gotta keep the faith,
you better keep the faith and run away.

Chorus

It's time to break free, oh oh oh oh, run away, oh oh oh oh,
you better break free, oh oh oh oh, run away, oh oh oh oh.
Money, sex, in full control, look, big brother is watching you,
unlock your brain and save your soul, no more limits, no more curfew,
life in the perfect system, take a stand and fight for freedom,
keep the faith, you gotta keep the faith,
you better keep the faith and run away.

Chorus

It's time to break free, oh oh oh oh, run away,
oh oh oh oh, you better break free, oh oh oh oh,
run away, oh oh oh oh
Keep the faith, you gotta keep the faith,
you better keep the faith and run away.
Keep the faith, you gotta keep the faith,
you better keep the faith and run away.

We Ain't Got Nothin' Yet
BLUES MAGOOS
(Gilbert - Scala - Esposito)


One day you're up and the next day you're down
You can't face the world with your head to the ground
The grass is always greener on the other side, they say
So don't worry, boys, life will be sweet some day
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
We made enough mistakes
But you know we got what it takes

Oh, we ain't got nothin' yet
No, we ain't got nothin' yet

Nothin' can hold us and nothin' can keep us down
And someday our names will be spread all over town
We can get in while the getting is good
So make it on your own, yeah, you know that you could
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
We got to make the break
'Cause we got too much at stake

We made enough mistakes
But you know we got what it takes

Heart of Glass


Once I had a love and it was a gas
Soon turned out had a heart of glass
Seemed like the real thing, only to find
Mucho mistrust, love's gone behind

Once I had a love and it was divine
Soon found out I was losing my mind
It seemed like the real thing but I was so blind
Mucho mistrust, love's gone behind

In between "what I find is pleasing" and "I'm feeling fine", love is so
confusing
There's no peace of mind if I fear I'm losing you
It's just no good, you teasing like you do
Lost inside
Adorable illusion and I cannot hide
I'm the one you're using, please don't push me aside
We coulda made it cruising, yeah
Yeah, riding high on love's true bluish light

Once I had a love and it was a gas
Soon turned out to be a pain in the ass
Seemed like the real thing only to find
Mucho mistrust, love's gone behind

-------------------------------------------------------------------
