Lyrics - Light and Shade - Fra Lippo Lippi
he will paint the light and shades
the colors and the trees
he will climb the steepest hill
believing what he sees
he will lay down on the ground
beneath the old oak tree
he will sleep forever
if you try to set him free
yeah, yeah
sail on the wings of a cloud
where to
well nobody knows
and cry, cry if you want them to see
die everyday to be free
be proud to wear the colors that you call your own
be loud, speak out when you want the world to know
be strong, hold the flame for everyone to see
be weak, if you want to love
he will paint the endless sea
a mystery to me
he will reach out for the sun
not dreaming what he sees
he will fall down on his knees
angel touching ground
takes him to the other side
sweet love is coming down
yeah, yeah
sail on the wings of a cloud
where to
well nobody knows
and cry, cry if you want them to see
die everyday to be free
be proud to wear the colors that you call your own
be loud, speak out when you want the world to know
be strong, hold the flame for everyone to see
be weak...
so if you want to sail on the wings of a cloud
where to
well nobody knows
and cry, cry if you want them to see
die everyday to be free
be proud to wear the colors that you call your own
be loud, speak out when you want the world to know
be strong, now hold the flame for everyone to see
be weak,if you want to love

Lyrics - Run - Collective Soul
are these times contagious?
i've never been this bored before
is this the prize i've waited for?
now with the hours passing
there's nothing left here to mature
i long to find the messenger
have i got a long way to run?
have i got a long way to run?
yeah, i run
is there a cure among us?
from this processed sanity
i weaken with each voice that sings
now in this world of purchase
i'm going to buy back memories
to awaken some old qualities
have i got a long way to run?
have i got a long way to run?
yeah, i run
yeah, i run
have i got a long way
have i got a long way
have i got a long way to run?
have i got a long way to run?
yeah, i run (have i got a long way to run?)
yeah, i run (have i got a long way to run?)
Lyrics - Not Only Numb - Gin Blossoms
Looking all around the room
I see the clutter in the gloom
I'm not only back, I'm not only numb
Changing shades within the evening
In a day then I'll be leaving
I'm not only back, I'm not only numb
Well the air at home is thin
Getting out then looking in
She know, she knows, she knows
It ain't awful hard to tell
What's it like my little hell
Yeah, she knows, she knows, she knows
I'm now familiar with the tone
I hear in bed when I'm alone
I'm not only back, I'm not only numb
In the shade below the eaves
Think I could chain-smoke anything
I'm not only back, I'm not only numb
When the air at home is thin
Getting out then looking in
She know, she knows, she knows
It ain't awful hard to tell
What's it like my little hell
Yeah, she knows, she knows, she knows
She know, she knows, she knows
She sees all the cars
Around the parking lots of bars
We've played and stayed
Started laughing
Looking down upon the bed that we've made
we've made, we've made
She sees all the cars
Around the parking lots of bars
We've played and stayed
Started laughing
Falling down across the bed that we've made
we've made, we've made
The air at home is thin
When getting out, then looking in
I'm not only back, I'm not only numb
Changing shades within the evening
In a day, then I'll be leaving
I'm not only back, I'm not only numb
I'm not only back, I'm not only numb
I'm not only back, I'm not only numb
Lyrics - Prayer of St. Francis - Sarah McLachlan
Lord, make me an instrument of your peace
where there is hatred, let me sow love
where there is injury, (pardon)
where there is doubt (faith)
where there is despair (hope)
where there is darkness (light)
and where there is sadness (joy)
O Divine Master, grant that I may not
so much seek to be consoled as to console
to be understood as to understand
to be loved as to love
for it is in giving that we receive
it is in pardoning that we are pardoned
and it is in dying that we are born to eternal life.
Amen.

Lyrics - Dear Frustrated Superstar - Nerina Pallot
Dear frustrated superstar
Your mother's waiting in the car
To whisk you off to your new premiere
And all the friends who knew your name
Are waiting, wondering what became
Of the girl that they once knew but never loved
They never loved
So every city tells the lie
Of tramps, beggars, butterflies
Of all these things, then what am I?
A princess in a threadbare gown,
A gaudy, painted circus clown?
A child who lost her key and can't get home?
All the things I never was -
A traitor of the Western Wars
A girl who did it just because
Do or die, or don't at all
Prepare to suffer for your call
Some things have to hurt or they're not true
They can't be true
When you die, you'll wonder, was that it?
Will you think of how you wished you'd lived?
Well, you're here now
Yeah you're here now
So I only want to be up there
With a hundred others, I don't care
'Cause I'm here now
Yeah I'm here now
Papers, books, philosophy
And envelops eternity
I count each passing minute, hour, day.....
Wonder how I smile so well,
I wonder how they never tell
There's really no one living here at all
So here a line from God's own song
To comfort you when things go wrong
My children never visit me
Go searching in my sky at night
It must be there to set alight
Their mothers aching heart is so unsure
I'm so unsure....
When you die, you'll wonder, was that it?
Will you think of how you wished you'd lived?
Well, you're here now
Yeah you're here now
So I only want to be up there
With a hundred others, I don't care
'Cause I'm here now
Yeah I'm here now again, again
Again
Dear frustrated superstar,
I really hope you get that far
If not, I hope you live
I hope you live
Lyrics - Nobody Does It Better - Carly Simon
Nobody does it better
Makes me feel sad for the rest
Nobody does it half as good as you
Baby, you're the best
I wasn't looking but somehow you found me
I tried to hide from your love light
But like Heaven above me
The spy who loved me
Is keeping all my secrets safe tonight
And nobody does it better
Though sometimes I wish someone could
Nobody does it quite the way you do
Why'd you have to be so good?
The way that you hold me
Whenever you hold me
There's some kind of magic inside you
That keeps me from running
But just keep it coming
How'd you learn to do the things you do?
And nobody does it better
Makes me feel sad for the rest
Nobody does it half as good as you
Baby, baby, darlin' you're the best
Baby, you're the best
Baby, you're the best...
Lyrics - Falling Slowly - Glen Hansard with Marketa Irglova - Once OST
I don't know you but I want you
All the more for that
Words fall through me and always fool me
And I can't react
And games that never amount to more than they're meant
Will play themselves out
Take this sinking boat and point it home
We've still got time
Raise your hopeful voice you have a choice
You'll make it now
Falling slowly, eyes that know me
And I can't go back
And moods that take me and erase me
And I'm painted black
Well you have suffered enough and warred with yourself
It's time that you won
Take this sinking boat and point it home
We've still got time
Raise your hopeful voice you had a choice
You've made it now
Falling slowly, sing your melody
I'll sing along

Lyrics - Time in a Bottle - Jim Croce
if i could save time in a bottle
the first thing that i'd like to do
is to save everyday till eternity passes away
just to spend them with you
if i could make days last forever
if words could make wishes come true
i'd save everyday like a treasure and then
again i would spend the with you
but there never seems to be enough time
to do the things you wanna do
once you find them
i've looked around enough to know that
you're the one i wanna go through time with
if i had a box just for wishes
and dreams that it never come true
the box would be empty except for the memory
of how they were answered by you
but there never seems to be enough time
to do the things you wanna do
once you find them
i've looked around enough to know that
you're the one i wanna go through time with
Lyrics - I Need You - America
We used to laugh
We used to cry
We used to bow our heads then
Wonder why
But now you're gone
I guess I'll carry on
And make the best of what you've left to me
Left to me, left to me
I need you
Like the flower needs the rain
You know, I need you
Guess I'll start it all again
You know, I need you
Like the winter needs the spring
You know I need you
I need you
And every day
I'd laugh the hours away
Just knowing you were thinking of me
Then it came
That I was put to blame
For every story told about me
About me, about me
I need you
Like the flower needs the rain
You know, I need you
Guess I'll start it all again
You know, I need you
I need you, I need you
Like the winter needs the spring
You know I need you
Guess I'll start it all again
You know, I need you
I need you, I need you
Like the flower needs the rain
You know, I need you
Guess I'll start it all again
You know, I need you
I need you, I need you
Like the winter needs the spring
You know I need you
Guess I'll start it all again
You know, I need you...

Lyrics - Can't Help Falling in Love - Elvis Presley
wise men say only fools rush in
but i can't help falling in love with you
shall i stay
would it be a sin
if i can't help falling in love with you
like a river flows surely to the sea
darling so it goes
some things are meant to be
take my hand
take my whole life too
for i can't help
falling in love with you
like a river flows surely to the sea
darling so it goes
some things are meant to be
take my hand
take my whole life too
for i can't help
falling in love with you
for i can't help
falling in love with you

Lyrics - Way Back Into Love - Hugh Grant and Haley Bennet
i've been living with a shadow overhead
i've been sleeping with the cloud above my bed
i've been lonely for so long
trapped in the past i just can't seem to move on
i've been hidin' all my hopes and dreams away
just in case i ever need 'em again someday
i've been setting aside time
to clear a little space in the corners of my mind
all i wanna do is find a way back into love
i can't make it through without a way back into love, ooh
i've been watching but the sun has refused to shine
i've been searching but i just don't see the sign
i know that it's out there
there's gotta be something for my soul somewhere
i've been looking for someone to shed some light
not somebody just to get me through the night
i could use some direction
and i'm open to your suggestions
all i wanna do is find a way back into love
i can't make it through without a way back into love
and if i open my heart again
i guess i'm hoping you'll be there for me in the end, ooh, hooh,
hooh,
there are moments when i don't know if it's real
or if anybody feels the way i feel
i need inspiration
not just another negotiation
all i wanna do is find a way back into love
i can't make it through without a way back into love
and if i open my heart to you
i'm hoping you'll show me what to do
and if you'll help me to start again
you know that i'll be there for you in the end
oooh, oooh
wooh, woooh
oooh, oohoh
Lyrics - Cool With You - Jennifer Love Hewitt
Late last night
I was going through some old things
When I saw a picture of you, my best friend
It reminded me of days when you were mine
You had a way that always let me hear with a smile
I want those sweet days back again cause baby
It's sunny day but you're not around
That doggone rain might as well be pouring down
It's such a shame cause my heart's on the ground
Just wanna be cool with you again
Sometimes I sit by the fire and reminisce
About the time that we spent infront of it
And that old flame will never be the same
Until you come back here and rekindle it
I just wanna share my heart with you again
Cause baby
It's sunny day but you're not around
That doggone rain might as well be pouring down
It's such a shame cause my heart's on the ground
Just wanna be cool with you again
I fall asleep at night
And often see you here
In my dreams holding me
But then I wake up
And I realize that you're
Not here with me
It hurts so much
I gotta have you back baby
It's sunny day
But you're not around
That doggone rain might as well be pouring down
It's such a shame
Cause my heart's on the ground
Just wanna be cool with you again
It's sunny day but you're not around
That doggone rain might as well be pouring down
It's such a shame cause my heart's on the ground
Just wanna be cool with you again
