Let me hold you
For the last time
It’s the last chance to feel again
But you broke me
Now I can’t feel anythingWhen I love you
It’s so untrue
I can’t even convince myself
When I’m speaking
It’s the voice of someone elseOh it tears me up
I tried to hold but it hurts too much
I tried to forgive but it’s not enough
To make it all okayYou can’t play on broken strings
You can’t feel anything
That your heart don’t want to feel
I can’t tell you something that ain’t realOh the truth hurts
A lie is worse
I can’t like it anymore
And I love you a little less than beforeOh what are we doing
We are turning into dust
Playing house in the ruins of usRunning back through the fire
When there’s nothing left to save
It’s like chasing the very last train
When it’s too lateOh it tears me up
I tried to hold but it hurts too much
I tried to forgive but it’s not enough
To make it all okayYou can’t play our broken strings
You can’t feel anything
That your heart don’t want to feel
I can’t tell you something that ain’t realOh the truth hurts
And lies worse
I can’t like it anymore
And I love you a little less than beforeBut we’re running through the fire
When there’s nothing left to say
It’s like chasing the very last train
When we both know it’s too lateYou can’t play our broken strings
You can’t feel anything
That your heart don’t want to feel
I can’t tell you something that ain’t realOh the truth hurts
And lies worse
I can’t like it anymore
And I love you a little less than before
Oh and I love you a little less than beforeLet me hold you for the last time
It’s the last chance to feel again1 January, 2010 at 11:48 am #140113The power of love is a curious thing
make a one man weep, make another man sing
Change a hawk to a little white dove
more than a feeling
that’s the power of love
Tougher than diamonds, rich like cream
Stronger and harder than a bad girl’s dream
make a bad one good make a wrong one right
power of love that keeps you home at nightChorus 1 :You don’t need money, don’t take fame
Don’t need no credit card to ride this train
It’s strong and it’s sudden and it’s cruel sometimes
but it might just save your life That’s the power of love
That’s the power of loveFirst time you feel it, it might make you sad
Next time you feel it it might make you mad
But you’ll be glad baby when you’ve found
that’s the power makes the world go’roundChorus 2 :And it don’t take money, don’t take fame
don’t need no credit card to ride this train
It’s strong and it’s sudden it can be cruel sometimes
but it might just save your lifeThey say that all in love is fair yeah, but you don’t care
But you know what to do
when it gets hold of you
and with a little help from above
you feel the power of love
you feel the power of love
Can you feel it ? HmmmChorus 3 :It don’t take money and it don’t take fame
don’t need no credit card to ride this train
Tougher than diamonds and stronger than steel
you won’t feel nothin’ till you feel
you feel the power, just the power of loveThat’s the power, that’s the power of love
You feel the power of love
you feel the power of love
feel the power of loveHUEY LEWIS AND THE NEWS *THE POWER OF LOVE*
HAPPY NEW YEAR!

‘Cos you’re trying to hard, too hard to see them
And sometimes you don’t find the right lines
‘Cos you’re trying too hard, too hard to hear them
But you know what it feels like
‘Cos you’re like me
And you won’t give up
‘Till an all time love
‘Cos nothing else is good enough
I want an all time love to find meSome days you’re too set in your ways
And you forget to shut up, shut up and listen
And some days you just have to misplace all your mistakes
Somewhere that you won’t miss them
So stop lying that you’re fine
‘Cos you’re like me
And you can’t give up‘Till an all time love
‘Cos nothing else is good enough
I want an all time love to find meI don’t believe that it’s a failing
I don’t believe that it’s a fault
‘Cos if everything were plain sailing
Oh tell me what would there be left to exaltBut an all time love
‘Cos nothing else is good enough
I want an all time love to find me
I want an all time love
‘Cos nothing else is good enough
I want an all time love to find me2 January, 2010 at 11:12 am #140116Schoolbag in hand, she leaves home in the early morning
Waving goodbye with an absent-minded smile
I watch her go with a surge of that well-known sadness
And I have to sit down for a while
The feeling that I’m losing her forever
And without really entering her world
I’m glad whenever I can share her laughter
That funny little girlSlipping through my fingers all the time
I try to capture every minute
The feeling in it
Slipping through my fingers all the time
Do I really see what’s in her mind
Each time I think I’m close to knowing
She keeps on growing
Slipping through my fingers all the timeSleep in our eyes, her and me at the breakfast table
Barely awake, I let precious time go by
Then when she’s gone there’s that odd melancholy feeling
And a sense of guilt I can’t deny
What happened to the wonderful adventures
The places I had planned for us to go
(Slipping through my fingers all the time)
Well, some of that we did but most we didn’t
And why I just don’t knowSlipping through my fingers all the time
I try to capture every minute
The feeling in it
Slipping through my fingers all the time
Do I really see what’s in her mind
Each time I think I’m close to knowing
She keeps on growing
Slipping through my fingers all the timeSometimes I wish that I could freeze the picture
And save it from the funny tricks of time
Slipping through my fingersSlipping through my fingers all the time
Schoolbag in hand she leaves home in the early morning
Waving goodbye with an absent-minded smile8 January, 2010 at 2:22 pm #140117http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=otuwNwsqHmQ
The higher you build your barriers
The taller I become
The farther you take my rights away
The faster I will run
You can deny me
You can decide to turn your face away
No matter, cos there’s….Something inside so strong
I know that I can make it
Tho’ you’re doing me wrong, so wrong
You thought that my pride was gone
Oh no, something inside so strong
Oh oh oh oh oh something inside so strongThe more you refuse to hear my voice
The louder I will sing
You hide behind walls of Jericho
Your lies will come tumbling
Deny my place in time
You squander wealth that’s mine
My light will shine so brightly
It will blind you
Cos there’s……Something inside so strong
I know that I can make it
Tho’ you’re doing me wrong, so wrong
You thought that my pride was gone
Oh no, something inside so strong
Oh oh oh oh oh something inside so strongBrothers and sisters
When they insist we’re just not good enough
When we know better
Just look ’em in the eyes and say
I’m gonna do it anyway x 4Something inside so strong
And I know that I can make it
Tho’ you’re doing me wrong, so wrong
You thought that my pride was gone
Oh no, something inside so strong
Oh oh oh oh oh something inside so strongBrothers and sisters
When they insist we’re just not enough
When we know better
Just look ’em in the eyes and say
I’m gonna do it anyway x 4Because there’s something inside so strong
And I know that I can make it
Tho’ you’re doing me, so wrong
Oh no, something inside so strong
Oh oh oh oh oh something inside so strong9 January, 2010 at 6:55 pm #140118Must I Paint You a Picture – Billy Bragg
It’s bad timing and me
We find a lot of things out this way
And there’s you
A little black cloud in a dress
The temptation
To take the precious things we have apart
To see how they work
Must be resisted for they never fit together again
If this is rain let it fall on me and drown me
If these are tears let them fallChorus:
Must i paint you a picture
About the way that i feel
You know my love for you is strong, girl
You know my love for you is realIt took a short walk and a talk
To change the rules of engagement
While you searched frantically for reverse and them claiming
That virtue never tested is no virtue at all
And so i lost my ignorance
And now the bells across the river chime out your name
I look across to them againAll your friends said come down
It will never fly
And on that imperfect day
We threw it all away
Crisis after crisis, with such intensity
This would never happen if we lived by the seaMost important decisions in life
Are made between two people in bed
I found that out at my expense
And when i see you
You just turn around and walk away like we never met
Oh we used to be so brave
I dreamt the world stopped turning as we climbed the hill
I dreamt impossible dreams that we were lovers still10 January, 2010 at 8:51 pm #140119Meet Me Halfway.. (Black Eyed Peas)..

I think I’m falling off
Into a state of regression
The expiration date
Rapidly coming up
It’s leaving me behind to rankAlways move forward
Going “straight” will get you nowhere
There is no progress
Evolution killed it all
I found my place in nowhereI’m taking one step sideways
Leading with my crutch
Got a fucked up equilibrium
Count down from 9 to 5
Hooray! We’re gonna die!
Blessed into our extinctionAlways move forward
Going “straight” will get you nowhere
There is no progress
Evolution killed it all
I found my place in nowhereAlways move forward
Going “straight” will get you nowhere
There is no progress
Evolution killed it all
I found my place in nowhere13 January, 2010 at 6:48 am #140121There’s a time and place for everything
There’s a reason why certain people meet
There’s a destination for everyone
What’s the explanation when were done.All the summer nights spent wondering
So many questions asked
But no one’s answering
Would it be okay if I left today
Took my chances on what you said was wrong.I’m jaded, stupid and reckless not sorry
When I’ll never regret these years spent
So faded and reckless not sorry
And I’ll never regret these years
I’ll never regret these years.Now here I sit so far away
Remembering all our memories
Well it’s times like these when I miss you most
Remembering when we were so close.I’ll never forget the places we’ve been you and I
Our lives are slipping away, don’t want to let time pass us by
By. -
