~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I Want it that Way…Backstreet Boys
You are my fire the one desire, believe when I say, I want it that way
But we are two worlds apart, can't reach to your heart
When you say that I want it that way.
Tell me why ain't nothin' but a heartache, tell me why ain't nothin' but a mistake
Tell me why I never wanna hear you say "I want it that way".
Am I your fire, your one desire? Yes I know it's too late but I want it that way
Tell me why ain't nothin' but a heartache, tell me why ain't nothin' but a mistake
Tell me why I never wanna hear you say "I want it that way".
Now I can see that we've fallen apart from the way that it used to be, yeah
No matter the distance I want you to know that deep down inside of me
You are my fire, the one desire, you are, you are, you are, you are
Don't wanna hear you say...
Ain't nothin' but a heartache, ain't nothin' but a mistake
I wanna hear you say I never wanna hear you say I want it that way
Tell me why ain't nothin' but a heartache, tell me why ain't nothin' but a mistake
Tell me why I never wanna hear you say I want it that way...
Sacrifise…Elton John
It's a human sign when things go wrong, when the scent of her lingers, and temptation's
strong.
Into the boundary, of each married man, sweet deceipt comes a callin' and negativity
lands.
Cold, cold heart, hard done by you, some things look better, baby, just passin' through.
And it's no sacrifice, just a simple word, it's two hearts living in two separate worlds.
But it's no sacrifice...it's...at all...
...Mutual misunderstanding after the fact, sensitivity builds a prison in the final act.
We lose direction, no stone unterned, no tears to damn you when jealousy burns...
Show me the Meaning…Backstreet Boys
Show me the meaning of being lonely so many words for the broken heart
It's hard to see in a crimson love so hard to breathe
Walk with me, and maybe nights of light so soon become
Wild and free I could feel the sun your every wish will be done
They tell me...
Show me the meaning of being lonely, is this the feeling I need to walk with?
Tell me why I can't be there where you are, there's something missing in my heart.
Life goes on as it never ends, eyes of stone observe the trends
They never say forever gaze guilty roads to an endless love
There's no control, are you with me now?
Your every wish will be done, they tell me
Show me the meaning of being lonely, is this the feeling I need to walk with?
Tell me why I can't be there where you are, there's something missing in my heart.
There's nowhere to run, I have no place to go
Surrender my heart' body and soul
How can it be you're asking me to feel the things you never show?
You are missing in my heart, tell me why I can't be there where you are
Show me the meaning of being lonely, is this the feeling I need to walk with?
Tell me why I can't be there where you are, there's something missing in my heart...
Quit Playing Games…Backstreet Boys
Baby...
Even in my heart I see
You're not being true to me
Deep within my soul I feel
Nothing's like it used to be
Sometimes I wish I could
Turn back time
Impossible as it may seem
But I wish I could so bad baby
Chorus
Quit playing games with my heart
Before you tear us apart
I should have known from the start
You know you've gotta stop
Quit playing games with my heart
I live my life the way
To keep you coming back to me
Everything I do is for you
So what is it that you can't see
Sometimes I wish I could
Turn back time
Impossible as it may seem
But I wish I could so bad, baby
You better quit playing games with my heart
Chorus
Quit playing games with my heart
Baby, baby the love that we had was so strong
Don't leave me hangin' here forever
Oh baby, baby this is not a lie
Let's stop this tonight
Baby, ooh
Quit playin' games
Na na na na na na na
Na na na na na baby
Na na na na na na na
Sometimes I wish I could turn back time
Impossible as it may seem
But I wish I could so bad, baby
Quit playin' games with my heart
Na na na na na na na
Na na na na na baby
Na na na na na na na
Quit playin'games with my heart
Na na na na na na na (with my heart)
Na na na na na baby
With my heart, with my heart
Bailamos…Enrique Iglesius
Esta noche bailamos
Te doy toda mi vida
Quedate conmigo
Tonight we dance
I leave my life, in your hands
We take the floor
Nothing is forbidden anymore
Don't let the world dim my sight
Don't let a moment go by
Nothing can stop us tonight
1-Bailamos, let the rhythm take you over
Bailamos
Te quiero amor mio, bailamos
Gonna live this night forever
Bailamos
Te quiero amor mio, te quiero
Tonight I'm yours
We can make it happen I'm so sure
Now I'm letting go
There is something I think you should know
I won't be leaving your side
We're gonna dance through the night
I'm gonna reach for the stars
(repeat 1)
(whoa, oh oh oh) Tonight we dance
(whoa, oh oh oh) Like no tomorrow
(whoa oh oh oh) If you will stay with me
Te quiero, mi amor
Quedate conmigo, esta noche
Quedate mi cielo
(repeat 1, 1...COMO TE QUIERO (6))
Another Day in Paradise…Phil Collins
She calls out to the man on the street
"Sir, can you help me?
It's cold and I've nowhere to sleep,
Is there somewhere you can tell me?"
He walks on, doesn't look back
He pretends he can't hear her
Starts to whistle as he crosses the street
Seems embarrassed to be there
Oh think twice, it's another day for
You and me in paradise
Oh think twice, it's just another day for you,
You and me in paradise
She calls out to the man on the street
He can see she's been crying
She's got blisters on the soles of her feet
Can't walk but she's trying
Oh think twice...
Oh lord, is there nothing more anybody can do
Oh lord, there must be something you can say
You can tell from the lines on her face
You can see that she's been there
Probably been moved on from every place
'Cos she didn't fit in there
Oh think twice...
Its True…Backstreet Boys
Even a lover makes a mistake sometimes
Like any other
Fall out and lose his mind
And I'm sorry for the things I did
For your teardrops over words I said
Can you forgive me and open
your heart once again?
It's true
I mean it
From the bottom of my heart
Yeah, it's true
Without you I would fall apart
Whatever happened
I know that I was wrong, oh yeah
Can you believe me
Maybe your faith is gone
But I love you, and I always will
So I wonder if you want me still
Can you forgive me and open
you heart once again? Oh yeah
It's true
I mean it
From the bottom of my heart
Yeah, it's true
Without you I would fall apart
I'd do anything to make it up to you
So please understand
And open your heart once again
It's true
I mean it
From the bottom of my heart, (the bottom of my heart)
Yeah it's true
Without you I would fall apart
Answer to my Life…Backstreet Boys
You see me sitting here, a smile upon my face
The time has come but you know that it's not too late
There's been too many things, together we have seen
It's not too hard if we start to believe
And we're not gonna take anymore
Can we try to erase all the pain
So please
Show me a reason, give me a sign
Tell me the way we, fall out of line
Is it today or is it tonight?
We'll find, the answer to our life
This world is not at ease, we seem to hide the truth
Thinking there's only so much we really can do
It's up to you and me, to face our destiny
The joury sits so let's take the stand
And we're not gonna take anymore
Can we try to erase all the pain
So Please
Show me a reason, give me a sign
Tell me the way we, fall out of line
Is it today or is it tonight?
We'll find, the answer to our life
So tell me why we have to cry
And I try
When there's so many things we can do
To help this troubled world start a new
I need a reason, I need a sign
There's no turning back I'm here by your side
Is it today or maybe tonight?
We'll find
The answer to our life
Show me the way, give me a sign
Tell me the way we fall out of line
Is it today, is it tonight
The answer to our life
Show me a reason, give me a sign
Tell me the way we, fall out of line
Is it today or is it tonight?
We will find, the answer to our life
Show me a reason, give me a sign
Tell me the way we, fall out of line
Is it today or is it tonight?
We'll find, the answer to our life
Hotel California…Eagles
On a dark desert highway, cool wind in my hair
Warm smell of colitas, rising up through the air
Up ahead in the distance, I saw a shimmering light
My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim
I had to stop for the night
There she stood in the doorway;
I heard the mission bell
And I was thinking to myself,
'This could be Heaven or this could be Hell'
Then she lit up a candle and she showed me the way
There were voices down the corridor,
I thought I heard them say...
Welcome to the Hotel California
Such a lovely place
Such a lovely face
Plenty of room at the Hotel California
Any time of year, you can find it here
Her mind is Tiffany-twisted, she got the Mercedes bends
She got a lot of pretty, pretty boys, that she calls friends
How they dance in the courtyard, sweet summer sweat.
Some dance to remember, some dance to forget
So I called up the Captain,
'Please bring me my wine'
He said,'We haven't had that spirit here since nineteen sixty nine'
And still those voices are calling from far away,
Wake you up in the middle of the night
Just to hear them say...
Welcome to the Hotel California
Such a lovely place
Such a lovely face
They livin' it up at the Hotel California
What a nice surprise, bring your alibis
Mirrors on the ceiling,
The pink champagne on ice
And she said 'We are all just prisoners here, of our own device'
And in the master's chambers,
They gathered for the feast
The stab it with their steely knives,
But they just can't kill the beast
Last thing I remember, I was
Running for the door
I had to find the passage back
To the place I was before
'Relax,'said the night man,
We are programmed to receive.
You can checkout any time you like,
but you can never leave!
Everything I do…Bryan Adams
Look into my eyes - you will see
What you mean to me
Search your heart - search your soul
And when you find me there you'll search no more
Don't tell me it's not worth tryin' for
You can't tell me it's not worth dyin' for
You know it's true
Everything I do - I do it for you
Look into my heart - you will find
There's nothin' there to hide
Take me as I am - take my life
I would give it all - I would sacrifice
Don't tell me it's not worth fightin' for
I can't help it - there's nothin' I want more
Ya know it's true
Everything I do - I do it for you
There's no love - like your love
And no other - could give more love
There's nowhere - unless you're there
All the time - all the way
Oh - you can't tell me it's not worth tryin' for
I can't help it - there's nothin' I want more
I would fight for you - I'd lie for you
Walk the wire for you - ya I'd die for you
Ya know it's true
Everything I do - I do it for you
I’m ready…Bryan Adams
I'd like to see you, thought I'd let you know
I wanna be with you everyday
Cause I've got a feeling that beginning to grow
And there's only one thing I wanna say
I'm ready - to love you
I'm ready - to hold you
I'm ready - I'm ready
Ready as I'm gonna be
She left me a long note when she left me here
Told me that love was hard to find
But baby it's easy and I'll make it clear
That there's only one thing on my mind
I'm ready - to love you
I'm reday - to hold you
I'm ready - I'm ready
Ready as I'm gonna be
If Tomorrow Never Comes…Ronan Keating
Sometimes late at night
I lie awake and watch her sleeping
She's lost in peaceful dreams
So I turn out the lights and lay there in the dark
And the thought crosses my mind
If I never wake up in the morning
Would she ever doubt the way I feel
About her in my heart
If tomorrow never comes
Will she know how much I loved her
Did I try in every way to show her every day
That she's my only one
And if my time on earth were through
And she must face the world without me
Is the love I gave her in the past
Gonna be enough to last
If tomorrow never comes
'Cause I've lost loved ones in my life
Who never knew how much I loved them
Now I live with the regret
That my true feelings for them never were revealed
So I made a promise to myself
To say each day how much she means to me
And avoid that circumstance
Where there's no second chance to tell her how I feel
If tomorrow never comes
Will she know how much I loved her
Did I try in every way to show her every day
That she's my only one
And if my time on earth were through
And she must face the world without me
Is the love I gave her in the past
Gonna be enough to last
If tomorrow never comes
So tell that someone that you love
Just what you're thinking of
If tomorrow never comes
Colour Blind…Darius
Feelin' blue, while I'm trying to forget the feeling that I miss you
Feelin' green, when the jealousy swells and it won't go away in dreams
Feelin' yellow, I'm confused inside
A little hazy but mellow when I feel your eyes on me
Feelin' fine! Sublime!
When that smile of yours creeps into my mind
Oh oh
Nobody told me you'd feel so good
Nobody said you'd be so beautiful
Nobody warned me about your smile
You're the light, you're the light
When I close my eyes
I'm colour blind
You make me colour blind
Feelin' red, when you spend all your time with your friends and not me instead
Feelin' black, when I think about all the things that I feel I lack
Feelin' jaded, when it's not gone right
All the colours have faded, then I feel your eyes on me
Feelin' fine! Sublime!
When that smile of yours creeps into my mind
Mm mm
Nobody told me you'd feel so good
Nobody said you'd be so beautiful
Nobody warned me about your smile
You're the light, you're the light
When I close my eyes
I'm colour blind
You make me colour blind
Blinded by the light you shine, the colours fade completely
Blinded by you every time, I feel your smile defeat me
I'm colour blind
I just can't deny this feeling
Nobody told me you'd feel so good
Nobody said you'd be so beautiful
Nobody warned me about your smile
You're the light, you're the light
When I close my eyes
I'm colour blind
Nobody told me you'd feel so good
Nobody said you'd be so beautiful
Nobody warned me about your smile
You're the light, you're the light
When I close my eyes
I'm colour blind
You make me colour blind
I'm colour blind
Thank you very much for making me colour blind
In the End…Linkin Park
(It starts with)
One thing / I don’t know why
It doesn’t even matter how hard you try
Keep that in mind / I designed this rhyme
To explain in due time
All I know
time is a valuable thing
Watch it fly by as the pendulum swings
Watch it count down to the end of the day
The clock ticks life away
It’s so unreal
Didn’t look out below
Watch the time go right out the window
Trying to hold on / but didn’t even know
Wasted it all just to
Watch you go
I kept everything inside and even though I tried / it all fell apart
What it meant to me / will eventually / be a memory / of a time when I tried
so hard
And got so far
But in the end
It doesn't even matter
I had to fall
To lose it all
But in the end
It doesn't even matter
One thing / I don’t know why
It doesn’t even matter how hard you try
Keep that in mind / I designed this rhyme
To remind myself how
I tried so hard
In spite of the way you were mocking me
Acting like I was part of your property
Remembering all the times you fought with me
I’m surprised it got so (far)
Things aren’t the way they were before
You wouldn’t even recognize me anymore
Not that you knew me back then
But it all comes back to me
In the end
You kept everything inside and even though I tried / it all fell apart
What it meant to me / will eventually / be a memory / of a time when I
I tried so hard
And got so far
But in the end
It doesn’t even matter
I had to fall
To lose it all
But in the end
It doesn’t even matter
I've put my trust in you
Pushed as far as I can go
And for all this
There’s only one thing you should know
I've put my trust in you
Pushed as far as I can go
And for all this
There’s only one thing you should know
I tried so hard
And got so far
But in the end
It doesn’t even matter
I had to fall
To lose it all
But in the end
It doesn’t even matter
Another Brick in the Wall…Pink Floyd
"You! Yes, you! Stand still laddy!"
The Happiest Days of our Lives
When we grew up and went to school
There were certain teachers who would
Hurt the children in any way they could
"OOF!"
By pouring their derision
Upon anything we did
And exposing every weakness
However carefully hidden by the kids
But in the town, it was well known
When they got home at night, their fat and
Psychopathic wives would thrash them
Within inches of their lives.
We don't need no education
We dont need no thought control
No dark sarcasm in the classroom
Teachers leave them kids alone
Hey! Teachers! Leave them kids alone!
All in all it's just another brick in the wall.
All in all you're just another brick in the wall.
We don't need no education
We dont need no thought control
No dark sarcasm in the classroom
Teachers leave them kids alone
Hey! Teachers! Leave them kids alone!
All in all it's just another brick in the wall.
All in all you're just another brick in the wall.
"Wrong, Do it again!"
"If you don't eat yer meat, you can't have any pudding. How can you
have any pudding if you don't eat yer meat?"
"You! Yes, you behind the bikesheds, stand still laddy!"
Smell like a Teen Spirit…Nirvana
Load up on guns and bring your friends
It's fun to lose and to pretend
She's over bored and self assured
Oh no, I know a dirty word
Hello, hello, hello, how low? (x3)
Hello, hello, hello!
With the lights out, it's less dangerous
Here we are now, entertain us
I feel stupid and contagious
Here we are now, entertain us
A mulatto
An albino
A mosquito
My libido
Yay! (x3)
I'm worse at what I do best
And for this gift I feel blessed
Our little group has always been
And always will until the end
Hello, hello, hello, how low? (x3)
Hello, hello, hello!
With the lights out, it's less dangerous
Here we are now, entertain us
I feel stupid and contagious
Here we are now, entertain us
A mulatto
An albino
A mosquito
My Libido
Yay! (x3)
And I forget just why I taste
Oh yeah, I guess it makes me smile
I found it hard, it was hard to find
Oh well, whatever, nevermind
Hello, hello, hello, how low? (x3)
Hello, hello, hello!
With the lights out, it's less dangerous
Here we are now, entertain us
I feel stupid and contagious
Here we are now, entertain us
A mulatto
An albino
A mosquito
My libido
A denial !! (x9)
Heart Shaped Box…Nirvana
She eyes me like a pisces when I am weak
I've been locked inside your Heart-Shaped box for weeks
I've been drawn into your magnet tar pit trap
I wish I could eat your cancer when you turn back (Alt: ... when you turn black)
Hey! Wait!
I've got a new complaint
Forever in debt to your priceless advice
Hey! Wait! (Alt: Hate! Haight!)
I've got a new complaint
Forever in debt to your priceless advice
Hey! Wait!
I've got a new complaint
Forever in debt to your priceless advice
Your advice
Meat-eating orchids forgive no one just yet
Cut myself on angel's hair and baby's breath
Broken hymen of your highness I'm left black
Throw down your umbilical noose so I can climb right back
Hey! Wait!
I've got a new complaint
Forever in debt to your priceless advice
Hey! Wait!
I've got a new complaint
Forever in debt to your priceless advice
Hey! Wait!
I've got a new complaint
Forever in debt to your priceless advice
Your advice
She eyes me like a pisces when I am weak
I've been locked inside your Heart-Shaped box for weeks
I've been drawn into your magnet tar pit trap
I wish I could eat your cancer when you turn back (Alt: ... when you turn black)
Hey! Wait!
I've got a new complaint
Forever in debt to your priceless advice
Hey! Wait!
I've got a new complaint
Forever in debt to your priceless advice
Hey! Wait!
I've got a new complaint
Forever in debt to your priceless advice
Your advice (x3)
Summer of 69…Bryan Adams
I got my first real six string, bought it at the five and dime,
played it till my fingers bled, was the summer of sixty-nine.
Me and some guys from school had a band and we tried real hard.
Jimmy quit and Jody got married, I shoulda known we'd never get far.
But when I look back now, that summer seemed to last forever
and if I had the choice, ya, I'd always wanna be there, those were the best days of my life.
Ain't no use in complainin' when you got a job to do,
spent my evenin's down at the drive-in and that's when I met you, ya.
Standin' on your mama's porch, you told me that you'd wait forever,
oh! and when you held my hand I knew that it was now or never...
...Back in the summer...
...Man, we were killin' time, we were young and restless,
we needed to unwind, I guess nothin' can last forever...no.
And now the times are changin', look at everything that's come
and gone. Sometimes when I play that old six string I think about ya 'n wonder what went
wrong...
Drowning…Backstreet Boys
Don't pretend you're sorry, I know you're not, you know you got the power to make me
weak inside
Girl you leave me breathless but it's okay cuz you are my survival now hear me say.
I can't imagine life without your love and even forever don't seem like long enough
Every time I breathe I take you in and my heart beats again,
baby I can't help it, keep drowning in your love.
Every time I try to rise above I'm swept away by love.
Baby I can't help it, keep drowning in your love.
Maybe I'm a drifter , maybe Not cuz I am only safe here floating freely in your arms
I don't need another lifeline, not for me cuz only you can save me, oh can't you see?
I can't imagine life without your love and even forever don't seem like long enough
(don't seem like long enough yeah).
Every time I breathe I take you in and my heart beats again.
Baby I can't help it, keep drowning in your love
Every time I try to rise above I'm swept away by love.
Baby I can't help it, keep drowning in your love.
Go on and pull me under, cover me with dreams, yeah.
Love me mouth to mouth now, you know I can't resist coz you're the air that breathe
Every time I breathe I take you in, my heart beats again.
Baby I can't help it, keep drowning in your love.
Every time I try to rise above, I'm swept away by love,
baby I can't help it, keep drowning in your love...
The Perfect Fan…Backstreet Boys
It takes a lot to know what is love it's not the big things, but the little things
That can mean enough a lot of prayers to get me through
And there is never a day that passes by, I don't think of you
You were always there for me pushing me and guiding me always to succeed
You showed me when I was young just how to grow
You showed me everything that I should know
You showed me just how to walk without your hands
'Cause mom you always were the perfect fan
God has been so good blessing me with a family
Who did all they could and I've had many years of grace
And it flatters me when I see a smile on your face
I wanna thank you for what you've done
In hopes I can give back to you and be the perfect son
You showed me when I was young just how to grow
You showed me everything that I should know
You showed me just how to walk without your hands
'Cause mom you always were the perfect fan
You showed me how to love, you showed me how to care
And you showed me that you would always be there
I wanna thank you for that time and I'm proud to say you're mine
You showed me when I was young just how to grow
You showed me everything that I should know
You showed me just how to walk without your hands
'Cause mom you always were the perfect fan
'Cause mom you always were, mom you always were
Mom you always were, you know you always were
'Cause mom you always were... the perfect fan. I love you mom...
My Love…Westlife
An empty street an empty house
a hole inside my heart
i'm all alone and the rooms are getting smaller
i wonder how i wonder why
i wonder where they are
the days we had the songs
we sang together oh yeah
and oh my love
i'm holding on forever
reaching for a love
that seems so far
chorus
so i say a litter prayer
and hope my dreams will take me there
where the skies are blue
to see you once again my love
over seas from coast to coast
to find the place i love the most
where the fields are green
to see you once again my love
i try to read
i go to work
i'm laughing with my friends
but i can't stop to keep myself from thinking oh no
i wonder how i wonder why i wonder where they are
the days we had the songs
we sang together oh yeah
and oh my love
i'm holding on forever
reaching for a love
that seems so far
repeat chorus
to hold you in my arms
to promise you my love
to tell you from the heart
you're all i'm thinking of
i'm reaching for a love
that seems so far
repeat chorus to fade
November Rain…Guns & Roses
When I look into your eyes I can see a love restrained
But darlin' when I hold you don't you know I feel the same
'Cause nothin' lasts forever and we both know hearts can change
And it's hard to hold a candle in the cold November rain
We've been through this auch a long long time
Just tryin' to kill the pain
But lovers always come and lovers always go
An no one's really sure who's lettin' go today walking away
If we could take the time to lay it on the line
I could rest my head just knowin' that you were mine, all mine
So if you want to love me then darlin' don't refrain
Or I'll just end up walkin'...
...Do you need some time on your own...
...all alone, everybody needs some time on their own
Don't you know you need some time all alone
I know it's hard to keep an open heart
When even friends seem out to harm you
But if you could heal a broken heart
Wouldn't time be out to charm you
Sometimes I need some time on my own...
...And when your fears subside and shadows still remain
I know that you can love me when there's no one left to blame
So never mind the darkness we still can find a way
'Cause nothin' lasts forever even cold November rain
Don't ya think that you need somebody?...someone?
Everybody needs somebody, you're not the only one...
