"The Way I Are" by Timbaland 2 years ago

I ain’t got no money,
I ain’t got no car to take you on a date.
I can’t even buy you flowers,
But together we’ll be the perfect soulmates.
Talk to me girl.

Oh, baby, it’s alright now, you ain’t gotta flaunt for me.
If we go there, you can still touch my love, it’s free.
We can work without the perks just you and me,
Thug it out till we get it right.

Baby if you strip, you can get a tip
‘Cause I like you just the way you are.
(I’m about to strip and I want it quick
Can you handle me the way you are?)
I don’t need the G’s or the car keys,
Boy I like you just the way you are.
Let me see ya strip, you can get a tip
‘Cause I like, I like, I like..

I ain’t got no Visa.
I ain’t got no Red American Express.
We can’t go nowhere exotic,
It don’t matter ‘cause I’m the one that love you best.
Talk to me girl.

Oh, baby, it’s alright now, you ain’t gotta flaunt for me
If we go there, you can still touch my love, it’s free
We can work without the perks just you and me
Thug it out till we get it right

Baby if you strip, you can get a tip
‘Cause I like you just the way you are
(I’m about to strip and I want it quick
Can you handle me the way you are?)
I don’t need the G’s or the car keys
Boy I like you just the way you are
Let me see ya strip, you can get a tip
‘Cause I like you just the way you are

Baby girl,
I don’t got a huge ol’ house, I rent a room in a house.
Listen baby girl,
I ain’t got a motorboat but I can float ya boat.
So listen baby girl,
once you get a dose of D.O.E. you gon’ want some more.
So listen baby girl, when I make it I want you back,
want you back, yeah.



"All My Loving" by Jim Sturgess 2 years ago

I know this is a song by The Beatles. Sturgess just made me fall in love with it.

Close your eyes and I’ll kiss you,
Tomorrow I’ll miss you;
Remember I’ll always be true.
And then while I’m away,
I’ll write home every day,
And I’ll send all my loving to you.

I’ll pretend That I’m kissing
the lips I am missing
And hope that my dreams will come true.
And then while I’m away,
I’ll write home every day,
And I’ll send all my loving to you.

All my loving I will send to you.
All my loving, darling I’ll be true.

Close your eyes and I’ll kiss you,
Tomorrow I’ll miss you;
Remember I’ll always be true.
And then while I’m away,
I’ll write home every day,
And I’ll send all my loving to you

All my loving I will send to you.
All my loving darling I’ll be True.
All my loving All my loving ooh
All my loving I will send to you



"One Day I Slowly Floated Away" by Eisley 2 years ago

One day I slowly floated away
One day I slowly floated away
All the war horses wore rubber bands
to hide their hooves from sinking sand
The commander in charge was hoping that
The destiny was not to die

Wake up in the morning I shall
Wake up and so shall you
And I wake up, the sun is beautiful
And it is warming you and I
Fragile as we lie

Hard to foresee the future
Our bodies were growing thin
Glimpsing the peeling paint of
The nurse’s ivory chain
You’ve got a lot of nerve coming here
Your eyes are beating rhythms way
Faster than the speeding bullet that
took the life of your radio

Wake up in the morning I shall
Wake up and so shall you
And I wake up, the sun is beautiful
And it is warming you and I
Fragile as we lie

And in the corner chair
soft and soap-scented
my darling cries apologies
We foresee the mercy
That’s been shown my young limbs
Will not go unthanked or unseen

Wake up in the morning I shall
Wake up and so shall you
And I wake up, the sun is beautiful
And it is warming you and I
Fragile as we lie



"Fell Down the Stairs" by Tilly and the Wall 2 years ago

You fell down the stairs into my arms
And swiftly ran the other way.
And I heard the steady swell of applause
For two drunk kids trying to figure out which way was home.
They got lost as they were taking off each other’s clothes.
They realized there was a hole in the boat
And with no lifesaver you try your best to float,
But eventually the sky did return
And I was there outside in green.
I watched the world being reborn until 1 AM.
So, I thought I’d let you know it was beautiful slow dancing
To tunes of Billie Holiday.
The city looked wonderful that way
And love just like blood will always stain,
And if I could reverse it I don’t think that it’d be worth it.
I know in my heart I would never let you tumble to the ground.
No, I’ll never let you go.
I will never let you tumble to the ground.
I’ll never let you go.
I will never let you tumble to the ground.
I’ll never let you go.



"Take Me Anywhere" by Tegan and Sara 2 years ago

Bright just like the stars above me
Proud just like my mother planned it
Short on all the things I don’t want
I’m full of love and longing
Take me by the hand and tell me
You would take me anywhere
Still, cause I don’t want to move a thing
And all the things I don’t want they’re full
Of love and longing
Take me by the hand and tell me
You would take me anywhere
And it goes, it’s like a come on come on to me
And it goes, it’s like a come on come on to me
You, you say you don’t see any part of me
To love in all this mess and I know
You take the good and all the bad that comes with me



"Rainbow Connection" by Willie Nelson 2 years ago

Why are there so many songs about rainbows
and what’s on the other side?
Rainbows are visions, but only illusions,
and rainbows have nothing to hide.
So we’ve been told and some choose to believe it.
I know they’re wrong, wait and see.
Someday we’ll find it, the rainbow connection,
the lovers, the dreamers and me.

Who said that every wish would be heard
and answered when wished on the morning star?
Somebody thought of that and someone believed it.
Look what it’s done so far.
What’s so amazing that keeps us star gazing
and what do we think we might see?
Someday we’ll find it, the rainbow connection,
the lovers, the dreamers and me.

All of us under its spell. We know that it’s probably magic.

Have you been half asleep and have you heard voices?
I’ve heard them calling my name.
Is this the sweet sound that called the young sailors?
The voice might be one and the same.
I’ve heard it too many times to ignore it.
It’s something that I’m supposed to be.
Someday we’ll find it, the rainbow connection,
the lovers, the dreamers and me.



"Set the Fire to the Third Bar" by Snow Patrol ft. Martha Wainwright 2 years ago

I find the map and draw a straight line
Over rivers, farms, and state lines
The distance from here to where you’d be
It’s only finger-lengths that I see
I touch the place where I’d find your face
My fingers in creases of distant dark places

I hang my coat up in the first bar
There is no peace that I’ve found so far
The laughter penetrates my silence
As drunken men find flaws in science

Their words mostly noises
Ghosts with just voices
Your words in my memory
Are like music to me

I’m miles from where you are,
I lay down on the cold ground
I, I pray that something picks me up
And sets me down in your warm arms

After I have travelled so far
We’d set the fire to the third bar
We’d share each other like an island
Until exhausted, close our eyelids
And dreaming, pick up from
The last place we left off
Your soft skin is weeping
A joy you can’t keep in

I’m miles from where you are,
I lay down on the cold ground
And I, I pray that something picks me up
And sets me down in your warm arms.

And miles from where you are,
I lay down on the cold ground
And I, I pray that something picks me up
And sets me down in your warm arms.



"In the Aeroplane Over the Sea" by Neutral Milk Hotel 2 years ago

What a beautiful face
I have found in this place
That is circling all round the sun.
What a beautiful dream
That could flash on the screen
In a blink of an eye and be gone from me.
Soft and sweet,
Let me hold it close and keep it here with me.

And one day we will die
And our ashes will fly from the aeroplane over the sea.
But for now we are young
Let us lay in the sun
And count every beautiful thing we can see.
Love to be
In the arms of all I’m keeping here with me.

What a curious life we have found here tonight.
There is music that sounds from the street.
There are lights in the clouds,
Anna’s ghost all around,
Hear her voice as it’s rolling and ringing through me,
Soft and sweet,
How the notes all bend and reach above the trees.

Now how I remember you,
How I would push my fingers through
Your mouth to make those muscles move
That made your voice so smooth and swee.t
And now we keep where we don’t know
All secrets sleep in winter clothes
With one you loved so long ago,
Now he don’t even know his name.

What a beautiful face
I have found in this place
That is circling all round the sun.
And when we meet on a cloud
I’ll be laughing out loud,
I’ll be laughing with everyone I see.
Can’t believe how strange it is to be anything at all.



"Take It From Me" by The Weepies 2 years ago

What can I compare you to, a favorite pair of shoes?
Maybe my bright red boots if they had wings.
It’s funny how we animate colorful objects saved,
Funny how it’s hard to take a love with no sting.

But come on take it, come on take it, take it from me
But come on take it, come on take it, take it from me
But come on take it, come on take it, take it from me (we’ve got a good life).

What can I compare you to, a window the sun shines through?
Maybe the silver moon, a smile rising,
The magic of the fading day, satellites on parade,
A toast to the plans we’ve made to live like kings.

But come on take it, come on take it, take it from me
But come on take it, come on take it, take it from me
But come on take it, come on take it, take it from me (we’ve got a good life).

I lose my breath despite the air.
When the rain falls down I give in to despair.
Pink magnolia in winter, she doesn’t care
If you don’t show up to have another cup.

What can I compare you to, when everything looks like you?
I get a bit confused with every spring.
Flowers that bloom your eyes, hummingbirds side by side,
My heart won’t stay entirely in this rib caging.

So come on take it, come on take it, take it from me
But come on take it, come on take it, take it from me
But come on take it, come on take it, take it from me (we’ve got a good life).

We’ve a got a good life.



"Naked As We Came" by Iron & Wine 2 years ago

She says, “Wake up, it’s no use pretending.”
I’ll keep stealing, breathing her.
Birds are leaving over autumn’s ending,
One of us will die inside these arms,
Eyes wide open, naked as we came.
One will spread our ashes round the yard.

She says, “If I leave before you, darling,
Don’t you waste me in the ground.”
I lay smiling like our sleeping children,
One of us will die inside these arms,
Eyes wide open, naked as we came.
One will spread our ashes round the yard.
