30. Whiskey Lullaby 3 weeks ago

She put him out like the burnin’ end of a midnight cigarette
She broke his heart, he spent his whole life tryin’ to forget
We watched him drink his pain away a little at a time
But he never could get drunk enough to get her off his mind
Until’ the night

He put that bottle to his head and pulled the trigger
And finally drank away her memory
Life is short but this time it was bigger
Than the strength he had to get up off his knees
We found him with his face down in the pillow
With a note that said, “I’ll love her till I die”
And when we buried him beneath the willow
The Angels sang a whiskey lullaby

La la la la la la la, la la la la la la laa
La la la la la la la, la la la la la la laa

The rumors flew but nobody knew how much she blamed herself
For years and years, she tried to hide the whiskey on her breath
She finally drank her pain away a little at a time
But she never could get drunk enough to get him off her mind
Until’ the night

She put that bottle to her head and pulled the trigger
And finally drank away his memory
Life is short but this time it was bigger
Than the strength she had to get up off her knees
We found her with her face down in the pillow
Clinging to his picture for dear life
We laid her next to him beneath the willow
While the Angels sang a whiskey lullaby

La la la la la la la, la la la la la la laa
La la la la la la la, la la la la la la laa
La la la la la la la, la la la la la la laa
La la la la la la la, la la la la la la laa



29. It seems i'm gonna ask her to marry me 3 weeks ago

He woke up from dreaming and put on his shoes
Starting making his way past two in the morning, he hasn’t been sober for days

Leaning now into the breeze, remembering Sunday, he falls to his knees:
They had breakfast together, but two eggs don’t last ike the feeling of what he needs

Now this place seems familiar to him
She pulled on his hand with a devilish grin
She led him upstairs, she led him upstairs, left him dying to get in

Forgive me, I’m trying to find my calling, I’m calling at night
I don’t mean to be a bother, but have you seen this girl?

She’s been running through my dreams, and it’s driving me crazy, it seems
I’m gonna ask her to marry me

Even though she doesn’t believe in love, he’s determined to call her bluff
Who could deny these butterflies?
They’re filling his gut

Waking the neighbors, unfamiliar faces
He pleads, though he tries, but he’s only denied
Now he’s dying to get inside

Forgive me, I’m trying to find my calling, I’m calling at night
I don’t mean to be a bother, but have you seen this girl?

She’s been running through my dreams, and it’s driving me crazy, it seems
I’m going to ask her to marry me

The neighbors said she moved away
Funny how it rained all day
I didn’t think much of it then, but it’s starting to all make sense

Oh, I can see now that all of these clouds are following me in my desperate endeavor
To find my whomever, who ever she may be

I’m not coming back, I’ve done something so terrible
I’m terrified to speak, but you’d expect that from me
I’m mixed up, I’ll be blunt
Now the rain is just washing you out of my hair and out of my mind

Keeping an eye on the world, so many thousands of feet off the ground
I’m over you now, I’m at home in the clouds, towering over your head.

Well, I guess I’ll go home now
I guess I’ll go home now
I guess I’ll go home now
I guess I’ll go home…



What if she's an angel 2 months ago

There’s a man standing on the corner
With a sign sayin “will work for food”
You know the man
You see him every morning
The one you never give your money to
You can sit there with your window rolled up
Wondering when the lights going to turn green
Never knowing what a couple more bucks
In his pocket might mean

What if he’s an angel sent here from heaven
And he’s making certain that you’re doing your best
To take the time to help one another
Brother are you going to pass that test
You can go on with your day to day
Trying to forget what you saw in his face
Knowing deep down it could have been his saving grace
What if he’s an angel

There’s a man
And there’s a woman
Living right above you in apartment G
There’s alot of noise coming through the ceiling
And it don’t sound like harmony
You can sit there with your TV turned up
While the words and his anger fly
Come tomorrow when you see her with her shades on
Can you look her in the eye

What if she’s an angel sent here from heaven
And she’s making certain that you’re doing your best
To take the time to help one another
Brother are you going to pass that test
You can go on with your day to day
Trying to forget what you saw in her face
Knowing deep down it could have been her saving grace
What if she’s an angel

A little girl on daddy’s lap
Hiding her disease with a baseball cap
You can turn the channel
Most people do
But what if you were sitting in her daddy’s shoes

Maybe she’s an angel
Sent here from Heaven
And she’s making certain you’re doing your best
To take the time to help one another
Brother are you going to pass that test
You can go on with your day to day
Trying to forget what you saw in her face
Knowing deep down it could have been her saving grace
What if she’s an angel



27. Then - Brad Paisley 2 months ago

I remember
Trying not to stare
the night I first met you
You had me mesmerized
and three weeks later
in the front porch light
taking forty five minutes
to kiss good night
I hadn’t told you then
I thought I loved you then

[Chorus]
now you’re my whole life
now you’re my whole world
I just can’t believe
the way I feel about you girl
Like the river needs the sea
stronger than it’s ever been
we’ve come so far since that day
and I thought I loved you then

I remember
Taking you back
To right where I first met you
you were so surprised
there were people around
[ Find more Lyrics on www.mp3lyrics.org/zndy ]
but I didn’t care
I got down on one knee
right there and once again
I thought I loved you then

[Chorus]
now your my whole life
now you’re my whole world
I just can’t believe
the way I feel about you girl
Like the river needs the sea
stronger then it’s ever been
we’ve come so far since that day
and I thought I loved you then

[Break]

I can just see with you
with a baby on the way
I can just see you when your hair is turning gray
what I can’t see
Is how I’m never
gonna love you more
but I’ve said that before

Now you’re my whole life
now you’re my whole world
I just can’t believe
the way I feel about you girl
you’ll look back some day
at this moment that we’re in
and ill look at you and say
and I thought I loved you then
and I thought I loved you then



26. It's Been A While 13 months ago

It’s been a while
Since I could hold my head up high
and it’s been a while
Since I first saw you
It’s been a while
since i could stand on my own two feet again
and it’s been a while
since i could call you
But everything I can’t remember as fucked up as it may seem
the consequences that I’ve rendered
I’ve stretched myself beyond my means

It’s been a while
since i could say that i wasn’t addicted and
It’s been a while
Since I could say I love myself as well and
It’s been a while
Since I’ve gone and fucked things up just like i always do
It’s been a while
But all that shit seems to disappear when i’m with you
But everything I can’t remember as fucked up as it may seem
the consequences that I’ve rendered
I’ve gone and fucked things up again

Why must i feel this way?
just make this go away
just one more peaceful day

Its been awhile
Since I could lok at myself straight
and it’s been awhile
since i said i’m sorry
It’s been awhile
Since I’ve seen the way the candles light your face
It’s been awhile
But I can still remember just the way you taste
But everything I can’t remember as fucked up as it may seem
I know it’s me i cannot blame this on my father
he did the best he could for me

It’s been a while
Since I could hold my head up high
and it’s been a while since i said i’m sorry



25. If Only - Hoobastank 14 months ago

I thought it wasn’t wrong
To hide from you
Simple truth
I was scared
I’d felt it all along
But it hurt too much for me to share

If only I
Had been less blind
I’d have someone to hold onto
If only I
Could change your mind
If only I had known
If only I had you

I finally understand
Why things have happened
And how it all could go so wrong
Will this pain ever end
Cause I don’t think I can carry on

If only I
Had been less blind
I’d have someone to hold onto
If only I
Could change your mind
If only I had known
If only I had you

If only I
Had been less blind
I’d have someone to hold onto (I won’t let go)
If only I
Could have spoke my mind
If only it were true
(We could start brand new)
I know I’d make it through
If only I had you
If only I had you
If only I had you



24. Baby girl, i'm a blur 15 months ago

Baby girl, I’m a blur
I spoiled, stunted, sickened her.
God and Death are none of my concern
No, philosopher.
Deep in your heart, stitched the key
And only one can set me free from the beast
where I dwell and let the saints all burn in hell.

So take what you want from me, heyyyy
And take all I’ve got from me, heyyyy
You’re with me all the time
The drugs can have my mind, love
You own the rest you’ll find
And you’re with me all the time

On the roof, burning black, the city smoked from the attack
But on the roof, we love the beast to death
The sweat and whiskey breath

So take what you want from me, heyyyy
And take all I’ve got from me, heyyyy
You’re with me all the time
The drugs can have my mind, love
You own the rest you’ll find
And you’re with me all the time

We fall right down
We get back up again
thats how we be
you and me
I would not crowd,
I would not smother you
I’d let you breathe, over me

We’re on a sinking ship, but we’re escaping it
We’re on a sinking ship, but we’re escaping
We’re on a sinking ship, but we’re escaping it
We’re on a sinking ship, we’re escaping

You’re with me all the time
You’re with me all the time
You’re with me all the time
You’re with me all the time

No matter where I go you’re on my mind
I stumble home and pray I’ll find
With your flamethrower eyes and jilted smile
You’ll soothe my wounds and drain my bile

You’re with me all the time



23. Get It Darlin 15 months ago

I started out walking outta there, that place was only bad news. Guess I’m right when I say
I need new walking shoes, cause the soles they are worn, from all the miles before. And I stop.
Three seconds later stutter step to your door.
She says you’re alright, you’ve got a place in my heart is achin’
For your touch, your touch and God I’m wishin’, your intuition is so with mine.

Whoa Let’s Go
That’s right I said it c’mon I know you get it darlin’
Whoa You Know,
I am the fever you want and everybodies got it!

It’s right here, it’s right now. The room is spinnin’ and oh still trying to fit in and dot these
i’s it’s no surprise when we get it right, we get it right!
Maybe we got it baby, we’ll leave the city. I think we’re ready for a new sky and a new life.
C’mon the plane is leaving it’s time, it’s time to get it right!

Whoa Let’s Go
That’s right I said it c’mon I know you get it darlin’
Whoa You Know,
I am the fever you want and everybodies got it!

We gotta get it, oh, we gotta get it right!
We gotta get it, oh, we gotta get it right!
We gotta get it, oh, we gotta get it right!
We gotta get it, oh, we gotta get it right! Whoa!

Whoa Let’s Go
That’s right I said it c’mon I know you get it darlin’
Whoa You Know,
I am the fever you want and everybodies got it!

Whoa, Whoa. That’s right I said it darlin’
Whoa, Whoa. That’s right I said it darlin’



22. The Best Of Me 16 months ago

So don’t go worrying about me
It’s not like I think about you constantly
So maybe I do, but that shouldn’t affect
Your life anymore
I knew it the moment you walked into the door

So don’t go worrying about me
It’s not like I think about this constantly
So maybe I do, but that shouldn’t affect
Your life anymore
I knew it the moment you walked into the door

I’ll let you get the best of me
Because there’s nothing else that I do well
I’ll let you get the best of me
Because there’s nothing else that I do well
I’ll be the giver and you’ll be the taker
I guess that’s how this one’s gonna go I’ll be the giver and you’ll be the taker



21. you are my purpose 16 months ago

Find Me Here
Speak To Me
I want to feel you
I need to hear you
You are the light
That’s leading me
To the place where I find peace again.

You are the strength, that keeps me walking.
You are the hope, that keeps me trusting.
You are the light to my soul.
You are my purpose…you’re everything.

How can I stand here with you and not be moved by you?
Would you tell me how could it be any better than this?

You calm the storms, and you give me rest.
You hold me in your hands, you won’t let me fall.
You steal my heart, and you take my breath away.
Would you take me in? Take me deeper now?

How can I stand here with you and not be moved by you?
Would you tell me how could it be any better than this?
And how can I stand here with you and not be moved by you?
Would you tell me how could it be any better than this?

Cause you’re all I want, You’re all I need
You’re everything,everything
You’re all I want your all I need
You’re everything, everything.
You’re all I want you’re all I need.
You’re everything, everything
You’re all I want you’re all I need, you’re everything, everything.

And How can I stand here with you and not be moved by you?
Would you tell me how could it be any better than this?
How can I stand here with you and not be moved by you?
Would you tell me how could it be any better than this?

How can I stand here with you and not be moved by you?
Would you tell me how could it be any better than this?

Would you tell me how could it be any better than this?
