Natalie Walker-No one Else

 

Butterflies
Gravity pulls me into
Anticipate our first touch
Sweet and so new
Let's figure out how to make this forever
Oh this is making me crazy

Hey love I am at the point of no restraint
Let's just make a move and feel the earth quake

It's just you and me
and no one else
It's just you and me
you and me

Slowly now
We shouldn't let this go too fast
Bring me out of this shell
Take off my mask
This is us intertwined and on fire
I cannot stop
I'm consumed with desire

 

City and Colour-Sometimes (I Wish)

 

If I was a simple man, 
Would we still walk hand in hand?
And if I suddenly went blind, 
Would you still look in my eyes?
What happens when I grow old?
And all my stories have been told?
Will your heart still race for me?
Or will it march to a new beat?
If I was a simple man

If I was a simple man,
I'd own no home, I'd own no land
Would you still stand by my side?
And would our flame still burn so bright?

Sometimes I wonder why,
I'm so full of these endless rhymes
About the way I feel inside
I wish I could just get it right

If I was a simple man
And I could make you understand
There'd be no reason to think twice
You'd be my sun; you'd be my light
If I was a simple man...
If I was a simple man...

Sometimes I wonder why
I'm so full of these endless rhymes
About the way I feel inside
I wish...
Sometimes..

Bell X1-Light Catches Your Face

 

A dog-eared dispirin
in your handbag
A gathering of crumbs
and twenty fags
I'd steal some chewing gum, a few stray coins
I'm sure you noticed but didn't much mind

And so it goes

Here I am in the condiment aisle
I'm worried about my basil from Israel and New World wine
I need to lose these poses
reset my charms
to when I left the factory in your arms

And so it goes

The words on the page start to swim
As the light catches your face and your smiling
This must be what all the fuss is about

You're trying to talk to me, all grateful and smiles
I'm glued to the T.V. giving one word replies
It's small and shameful, its a poor show
beat myself up on the way home and go crying to my girl

And so it goes

The words on the page start to swim
As the light catches your face and you're smiling
This must be what all the fuss is about

 

Let's Go Sailing-Come Home Safely

 

Come home safely tonight.
Walk only where you see your shadow
Lit up like a little cloud.
Come home safely tonight.
I will not sleep until I hear you counting steps.
We still have time left, don't we now?
Don’t we now?
Come home safely tonight.
My heart has fallen over cracks in pavement.
Please come home safely tonight.
This cannot be our last kiss goodbye
Or time your nose is met with mine.
Not this time. Not this time.

Greg Laswell-High and Low

 

I'm going to see some friends from out of state 
The very trip you were supposed to take awhile ago
But it fell through like all of you
Like all of you

Thought I'd make the drive but a free plane ride is in the air
And just like that my fear of it disappeared like all of you
Like all of you

And I look high and low for yesterday
High and low for you and I
High and low

Once I can see straight I might move somewhere cold
Seattle or the Bay area
To see your ghost
What's left of you
What's left of you

And I look high and low for yesterday
High and low for you and I
High and low

Found a letter from a man I might have met
Addressed to you
And I'll steal the words he ended with
I miss you
And I do
Miss you
And I do

High and low for yesterday
High and low for you and I
High and low


REM-At My M
ost Beautiful

 

I've found a way to make you
I've found a way
a way to make you smile

I read bad poetry
into your machine
I save your messages
just to hear your voice.
you always listen carefully
to awkward rhymes.
you always say your name.
like I wouldn't know it's you,
at your most beautiful.

I've found a way to make you
I've found a way
a way to make you smile

at my most beautiful
I count your eyelashes secretly.
with every one, whisper I love you.
I let you sleep.
I know your closed eye watching me,
listening.
I thought I saw a smile.

I've found a way to make you
I've found a way
a way to make you smile

Lenka-Like A Song

 

I can't forget you when you're gone.
You're like a song
That goes around in my head.
And how I regret
It's been so long.
Oh, what went wrong?
Could it be something I said?
Time, make it go faster,
Or just rewind
To back when I'm wrapped in your arms

All afternoon long
It's with me
The same song
You left a light on
Inside me
My love

I can Remember
The way that it felt
To be holding on to you

Time
Make it go faster
Or just decide
To come back to my happy heart.

 

Elisa-Dancing

 

Time is gonna take my mind
and carry it far away where I can fly
The depth of life will dim my temptation to live for you
If I were to be alone silence would rock my tears
'cause it's all about love and I know better
How life is a waving feather

So I put my arms around you around you
And I know that I'll be leaving soon
My eyes are on you they're on you
And you see that I can't stop shaking

No, I won't step back but I'll look down to hide from your eyes
'cause what I feel is so sweet and I'm scared that even my own breath
Oh could it burst if it were a bubble
And I'd better dream if I have to struggle

So I put my arms around you around you
And I hope that I will do no wrong
My eyes are on you they're on you
And I hope that you won't hurt me

I'm dancing in the room as if I was in the woods with you
No need for anything but music
Music's the reason why I know time still exists
Time still exists
Time still exists
Time still exists

So I just put my arms around you around you
And I hope that I will do no wrong
My eyes are on you they're on you
And I hope that you won't hurt me
My arms around you they're around you
And I hope that I will do no wrong
My eyes are on you they're on you they're on you
My eyes 

Lovers-An Army of Lovers Cannot Fail

 

I love you, baby, but I know you don't understand

When the good lord made me, he made me sad.

The best I've felt my whole life is when I was in your hands,

But you deserve better than what I have to give.

We slept under your mother's quilt and drew pictures on paper bags,

Of birds we'd seen in Tennessee the time we lost our map.

But there's bears in the balcony in the drunken dream I had.

They climbed up there; they came for me and left only the whiskey glass.

I love you, baby, but i know you don't understand.

When the highway takes me, I ain't coming back.

The best I've slept in a long time is when I was in your bed

But tonight I'll whisper 'goodbye' as you lay there.

If they send the wolves,

I'll join the wolves and I'll return some day with my teeth sharper and my blood hotter.

I'll be the dog by your grave with a hanging tongue and a ribcage and a chewed-up tail,

Howling with my last exhale.

An army of lovers cannot fail.

 

Barcelona-Please Don't Go

 

All those arrows you threw, you threw them away
You kept falling in love, then one day
When you fell, you fell towards me
When you crashed in the clouds, you found me

Oh, please don’t go
I want you so
I can’t let go
For I lose control

Get these left handed lovers out of your way
They look hopeful but you, you should not stay
If you want me to break down and give you the keys
I can do that but I can’t let you leave

Oh, please don’t go
I want you so
I can’t let go
For I lose control
