Corazon Salvaje
Singing: Mijares
Lyrics:
Y como cobrarle a la vida
Cuando todo te han salido siempre mal
Como cerrar tantas heridas
Si la sangre no ha dejado de brotar
Cuando el precio de la vida
Es tan dificil de pagar.
Como rogarle al destino
Cuando estoy acostumbrado a arrebatar
Por que hoy que te he encontrado,
No te apartes de mi lado,
No derrumben nuestros suenos,
Ni se atreva a separarnos.
Voy a exigirle a la vida
Que me pague contigo,
Que me enseñe el sentido del dolor
Porque ya fue suficiente el castigo
De no haberte conocido
Y dejar de ser por siempre un mendigo del amor,
Corazon salvaje.
Como explicar los instintos
Que mi busqueda contigo termino
Porque los caminos tan distintos
En algun momento el tiempo los unio
Quien lo dijera entregar la libertad sin condicion.
Voy a exigirle a la vida
Que me pague contigo,
Que me enseñe el sentido del dolor
Porque ya fue suficiente el castigo
De no haberte conocido
Y dejar de ser por siempre un mendigo del amor,
Corazon salvaje.

Colbie Caillat – Bubbly ( With lyrics)

I’ve been awake for a while now
You’ve got me feelin’ like a child now
‘Cause every time I see your bubbly face
I get the tinglees in a silly place
It starts in my toes
And I crinkle my nose
Wherever it goes I always know
That you make me smile
Please stay for a while now
Just take your time
Wherever you go
The rain is fallin’ on my window pane
But we are hidin’ in a safer place
Under the covers stayin’ safe and warm
You give me feelings that I adore
They start in my toes
Make me crinkle my nose
Wherever it goes
I always know
That you make me smile
Please stay for a while now
Just take your time
Wherever you go
What am I gonna say
When you make me feel this way?
I just, mmm
It starts in my toes
Makes me crinkle my nose
Wherever it goes
I always know
That you make me smile
Please stay for a while now
Just take your time
Wherever you go
I’ve been asleep for a while now
You tucked me in just like a child now
‘Cause every time you hold me in your arms
I’m comfortable enough to feel your warmth
It starts in my soul
And I lose all control
When you kiss my nose
The feelin’ shows
‘Cause you make me smile
Baby just take your time now
Holdin’ me tight
Wherever, wherever, where ever you go
Wherever, wherever, where ever you go

ONCE: Falling Slowly

Glen Hansard – Falling Slowly Lyrics
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
Moods that take me and erase me
And I’m painted black
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

ONCE: “When Your Mind’s Made Up” Scene
Watch Video Here
So, if you want something
And you call, call
Then’ll come running
To fight, and I’ll be at your door
When there’s something worth running for
When your mind’s made up
When your mind’s made up
There’s no point trying to change it
When your mind’s made up
When your mind’s made up
There’s no point trying to stop it
You see, you’re just like everyone
When the shit falls all you want to do is run, away
And hide all by yourself
When you’re far from me, there’s nothing else
When your mind’s made up
When your mind’s made up
There’s no point trying to change it
When your mind’s made up
When your mind’s made up
There’s no point even talking
When your mind’s made up
When your mind’s made up
There’s no point trying to fight it
So, if you ever want something
And you call, call
Then I’ll come running.

For your eyes only, can see me through the night
For your eyes only, I never need to hide
You can see so much in me, so much in me that’s new
I never felt until I looked at you
For your eyes only, only for you
You’ll see what noone else can see, and now I’m breaking free
For your eyes only, only for you
The love I know you need in me, the fantasy you’ve freed in me
Only for you, only for you
For your eyes only, the nights are never cold
You really know me, that’s all I need to know
Maybe I’m an open book because I know you’re mine
But you won’t need to read between the lines
For your eyes only, only for you
You see what no one else can see, and now I’m breaking free
For your eyes only, only for you
The passions that collide in me, the wild abandoned side of me
Only for you, for your eyes only

Its the story of a love that never ends and overcomes the barriers of even time itself.
Será
Y me quedé soñando
Con la ilusión a cuestas
con la esperanza guardada
en el bolsillo roto de un pantalón
en el baúl sin fondo de mis decepciones.
Aletargado en el tiempo
obsesionado con verte.
Se enrojecieron mis ojos
se marchitaba mi mente.
CORO
Será, que aún no se llenaba la luna.
Será, que el tiempo fue menguando nuestras ganas.
Será, será, será, será la luna
Será, será, será, serán las ganas será
Y me quedé en suspenso
con una historia breve
en los niveles mas bajos
de mis latidos del corazón
entre lo inverosímil
de mis frustaciones.
Aletargado en el tiempo
obsesionado con verte
se enrojecieron mis ojos
se marchitaba mi mente

Barco a la Deriva- Guillermo Davila
Watch Video Here
Si es como dices qué haces aquí
Envenenando este mes de abril
Con ese cuerpo de alambre que
No es sombra ni de lo que fué.
Si lo haz dejado qué haces aquí
Como una rosa rota en la basura
Porqué me miras así,
A quien le quieres mentir,
Tienes los ojos llenos de agonía.
Te daré, cobijo te daré, calor,
Por tí mi pajarillo herido,
Pintaré de rosa la melancolía
Por favor no digas que estas bien.
Barco a la deriva que
Se hunde un poco cada día.
Barco a la deriva que
No quiere ver el faro que elegía.
Si en plena lava bajó el volcán,
Siguen brotando las más bellas flores,
Porqué no quieres cortar,
Los hilos de la espiral
Que van metiendote vidrio en las venas.
No, ya no,te voy abandonar,
Saldrás de aquí mi cervatillo herido
No podré dormir mientras estás hundida
Por favor no digas que estás bien.
Barco a la deriva que
Se hunde un poco cada día.
Barco a la deriva que
No quiere ver el faro que elegía.
Barco a la deriva que
Se hunde un poco cada día.
Barco a la deriva que
No quiere ver el faro no no…
Barco a la deriva que
Se hunde un poco cada día.
Barco a la deriva que
No quiere ver el faro no no no…

I love to listen to this song, its so romantic and melancholic. The video is older, but is so romantic...
Ricardo Montaner, Dejame Llorar
Music Video for this song just click here
Cuanto vació hay en esta habitación,
tanta pasión colgada en la pared
cuanta dulzura diluyéndose en el tiempo
tantos otoños contigo y sin ti solo…
millones de hojas cayendo en tu cuerpo
otoños de llanto goteando en tu piel
ohhh
Iluminada y eterna, enfurecida y tranquila
sobre una alfombra de hierba
ibas volando dormida
un imposible silencio enmudeciendo mi vida
con una lagrima tuya y una lagrima mía
Iluminada y eterna enfurecida y tranquila
sobre una alfombra de hierba
ibas volando dormida,
con una estrella fugas te confundí la otra noche
y te pedí tres deseos mientras duraba tu luz
déjame llorar, déjame llorar por ti, déjame llorar uhhh
Cuantas nostalgias durmiendo en el desván,
he declarado mi vida
en soledad hago canciones de amor que nunca olvido pues
sobre nubes de otoño las escribo solo
Millones de hojas cayendo en tu cuerpo,
otoños de llanto goteando en tu piel

Although at times we feel as if a part of us dies, we need to remember that there is a resurrection, of our souls and others. That love ones who have past and us can be Together Forever. However, if we are in pain, we should not keep that inside; we must find the way to cry if we need to. We are humans. That’s the message I understood from this song. No one dies, they will remain in our memories forever and if part of us dies, we can be rebirth into our own selves, experiencing pain, but overcoming grief, step by step. It will not heal all at once. What a lovely message! Life and Death are part of our Life’s experiences. They say men should not cry, but even in 1988 when he released this song it was still a taboo subject for Latin Men to cry. The release of this song and video showed many self called “macho men” that it was ok to feel. That was so brave of him….And a giant step for MenKind, lol. WL

Hoy aqui despues no se
me falta paz, me sobra fe
no tengo puerto al que volver
Dios que facil es quemar las naves
contigo fiel estoy tambien
que floto solo con tocarte
Que no veo a nada y nadie como tu
teniendo al cielo de nuestra parte
Sencillamente por amarte tanto
voy de la risa al llanto
todo parece poco, debe ser cosa de locos
hasta la muerte por amarte tanto
quien puede separarnos
cierra los ojos cree en mi.
Una cruz, de azucar tu
frio y calor, cayena y miel
sueño de un sueño que soñe
mas te beso y mas de mas besarte
desnudate, abrazame
entre los dos ni el aire cabe
Cuerpo a cuerpo en una estrecha comunion
que pone al cielo de nuestra parte
Sencillamente por amarte tanto
paso del oro al fango
Si vieses por mis ojos
sabrias como estoy de loco
en carne viva por amarte tanto
soy lobo enamorado
Camino tras tus pasos
que el mundo deja de existir

Como puede ser verdad
Last night I dreamt of san pedro
Just like I’d never gone, I knew the song
A young girl with eyes like the desert
It all seems like yesterday, not far away
Chorus:
Tropical the island breeze
All of nature wild and free
This is where I long to be
La isla bonita
And when the samba played
The sun would set so high
Ring through my ears and sting my eyes
Your Spanish lullaby
I fell in love with San Pedro
Warm wind carried on the sea, he called to me
Te dijo te amo
I prayed that the days would last
They went so fast
(Chorus)
I want to be where the sun warms the sky
When it’s time for siesta you can watch them go by
Beautiful faces, no cares in this world
Where a girl loves a boy, and a boy loves a girl
Last night I dreamt of San Pedro
It all seems like yesterday, not far away
(Chorus)
Ta-la-ta-ta-taa
(Chorus)
La-la-la-la-la-la-laaa
Te dijo te amo
La-la-la-la-la-la-laaa
Spoken: El dijo que te ama
Pa-pa-la-pa-pa pa-pa-pa-pahaaa

The Look of Love
Self portrait by me, by me ;)
~Inspiration song: The Look Of Love By Dusty Springfield, 1967…
Check Out the French Version
By:
Info:
Dusty Springfield “The Look Of Love” (1967) Music written by Burt Bacharach & lyrics written by Hal David.
“The Look of Love” is a popular song. Since its first appearance in the 1967 James Bond film Casino Royale, it has become synonymous with lounge and easy listening music.
The song was sung by Dusty Springfield for the Casino Royale soundtrack, and was nominated for an Oscar. Springfield re-recorded the song the same year in London and released the song as the B-side of “Give Me Time”.
Claudine Longet recorded the song on her 1967 album of the same title. Lainie Kazan also recorded “The Look of Love” (arranged by Pat Williams) on her 1967 album Love is Lainie. Sergio Mendes’ hit rendition on the Sergio Mendes & Brasil ‘66 album Look Around, reached #4 on the pop charts after their performance in the Academy Awards telecast in March 1968. The lead vocal on this single was handled by Janis Hansen, not Lani Hall, a rarity in the early Brasil ‘66 canon. In 1969, soul group The Delfonics also covered the song on their album La La Means I Love You. During 1970, Isaac Hayes covered the song for his 1970 album …To Be Continued. While Hayes used the same lyrics, his cover includes a unique instrumental which has been heavily sampled on R&B and hip-hop records.

Selena – Dreaming of You Lyrics
Watch Video Here
Late at night when all the world is sleeping
I’d stay up and think of you
And I’d wish on a star
That somewhere you are thinking of me too
Cuz I’m dreaming of you tonight
Till tomorrow, I’ll be holding you tight
And there’s nowhere in the world I’d rather be
Then here in my room,
Dreaming about you and me
Wonder if you even see me
And I wonder if you know I’m there
If you looked in my eyes
Would you see what’s inside?
Would you even care?
I just wanna hold you close
But so far, all I have are dreams of you
So, I wait for the day and the courage to say
How much I love you(Yes, I do)
I’ll be dreaming of you tonight
Till tomorrow, I’ll be holding you tight
And there’s nowhere in the world I’d rather be
Then here in my room,
Dreaming about you and me
Ahhh…I can’t stop dreaming of you
Ahhh…I can’t stop dreamin
Late at night when all the world is sleeping
I’d stay up and think of you
And I still can’t believe that you came up to me
And said, “I love you; I love you too”
Now I’m dreaming with you tonight
Till tomorrow, and for all of my life
And there’s nowhere in the world I’d rather be
Then here in my room,
Dreaming with you endlessly…

Great choice of songs and images, Waleska. I love Dusty Springfield. And the songs from Once I have heard before, and they are beautiful. I have yet to see the movie, but I hear it’s great. Thanks for sharing. Agnes xxx
Waleska Luker replied
Oh Thanks Agnes, Once is really romantic, if I had to choose between the movie and the soundtrack, I will choose the soundtrack. Many people love it, I found it a little slower but worth seeing at least ONCE ;) I can’t get Dusty Springfield song out of my head, her sound is romance, her voice is so unique! Love it! Hope you liked the Spanish songs videos as well….Thanks once again ♥

Love, like a road that never ends
How it leads me back again
To heartache
I’ll never understand
Darling, I put my heart upon the shelf
‘Til the moment was right
And I tell myself…
(Chorus:)
Next time I fall in love
I’ll know better what to do
Next time I fall in love
Ooh, ooh, ooh
The next time I fall in love
The next time I fall in love
It will be with you
Oh, now, as I look into your eyes
Well, I wonder if it’s wise
To hold you like I’ve wanted to before
Tonight
Ooh, I was thinking that you might
Be the one who breathes life
Into this heart of mine
(Repeat chorus)
(Bridge:)
Next time, I’m gonna follow through
And if it drives me crazy
I will know better why
The next time I try

Ooh, ooh, ooh
The next time I fall in love

You’re the kind who is capturing my heart

But I could never face another night or day without you

Pale Lyrics
Artist(Band): Within Temptation
The world seems not the same,
Though I know nothing has changed.
It’s all my state of mind,
I can’t leave it all behind.
Have to stand up to be stronger.
Have to try to break free
From the thoughts in my mind.
Use the time that I have,
I can’t say goodbye,
Have to make it right.
Have to fight, cause I know
In the end it’s worthwhile,
That the pain that I feel slowly fades away.
It will be alright.
I know, should realize
Time is precious, it is worthwhile.
Despite how I feel inside,
Have to trust it’ll be all right.
Have to stand up to be stronger.
I have to try to break free
From the thoughts in my mind.
Use the time that I have,
I can’t say goodbye,
Have to make it right.
Have to fight, cause I know
In the end it’s worthwhile,
That the pain that I feel slowly fades away.
It will be all right.
Oh, this night is too long.
Have no strength to go on.
No more pain, I’m floating away.
Through the mist see the face
Of an angel, who calls my name.
I remember you’re the reason I have to stay.
Have to try to break free
From the thoughts in my mind.
Use the time that I have,
I can’t say goodbye,
Have to make it right.
Have to fight, cause I know
In the end it’s worthwhile,
That the pain that I feel slowly fades away.
It will be alright.

I got a pocket, got a pocketful of sunshine
I got a love and I know that it’s all mine, oh, oh oh oh
Do what you want but you’re never gonna break me
Sticks and stones are never gonna shake me, oh, oh oh oh
Take me away, a secret place
A sweet escape, take me away
Take me away to better days
Take me away, a hiding place
I got a pocket, got a pocketful of sunshine
I got a love and I know that it’s all mine, oh, oh oh oh
Do what you want but you’re never gonna break me
Sticks and stones are never gonna shake me, oh, oh oh oh
I got a pocket, got a pocketful of sunshine
I got a love and I know that it’s all mine, oh, oh oh oh
Wish that you could but you ain’t gonna own me
Do anything you can to control me, oh, oh no
Take me away, a secret place
A sweet escape, take me away
Take me away to better days
Take me away, a hiding place
There’s a place that I go that nobody knows
Where the rivers flow and I call it home
And there’s no more lies in the darkness there’s light
And nobody cries, there’s only butterflies
Take me away, a secret place
A sweet escape, take me away
Take me away to better days
Take me away, a hiding place
Take me away, a secret place
A sweet escape, take me away
Take me away to better days
Take me away, a hiding place
Take me away
(I got a pocket, got a pocketful of sunshine)
A secret place
(I got a love and I know that it’s all mine)
To better days take me away
Take me away
(I got a pocket, got a pocketful of sunshine)
A secret place
(I got a love and I know that it’s all mine)
Take me away, a hiding place
The sun is on my side and takes me for a ride
I smile up to the sky, I know I’ll be alright
The sun is on my side and takes me for a ride
I smile up to the sky, I know I’ll be alright

Three of my favorite love songs follow, but first, it was so cool to see the Bond girl from “For Your Eyes Only”, my favorite Bond girl ever, closely followed by Sophie Marceau…just thought I’d slip that in there.
“If” by Les Smutz
If you could see you through my eyes
You’d know that you are beautiful
If you could see you through my eyes
You’d know why my heart cries without you
And if you could see you through my eyes
You’d understand the way I feel
If you could see you through my eyes
You’d see why I’m so in love
Now I can’t say just what it is that makes me feel this way
No, I just know that I need to be near you to live another day
If you could hold you in my arms
You’d know that you feel beautiful
If you could hold you in my arms
You’d know why my heart leaps inside me
And if you could hold you in my arms
You’d understand why I can’t let go
If you could hold you in my arms
You’d see why I’m so in love
Now I can’t say just what it is that makes me feel this way
No, I just know that I need to be near you to live another day
If you could see you through my eyes
You’d know that you are beautiful
And if you could hold you in my arms
You’d see why I’m so in love
You’d know why I’m so in love
Can’t you see that I’m so…in love

“Waiting for Letters” (inspired by Sir Francis Dicksee’s painting ‘La Belle Dame Sans Merci”, and it really helps to look at the painting to get into the song)
Evening shadows softly falling
Bring a stillness to the air
Gentle breezes steal the fragrance
From the flowers in her hair
To the hilltop she has followed
To bid her love one last goodbye
He’s her knight in shining armor
She his promised autumn bride
Seated on a noble stallion
She bends close to see his eyes
He is sure that she’s an angel
Coming to him from the skies
A moment now forever frozen
He will see time and again
This perfect vision of his angel
As he travels to a far-off land
Though he’s tired and battle weary
Sleep is always hard to find
Memories of blood and anger
Crowd into his restless mind
But there’s a time when all is quiet
In his heart there is a peace
In his dreams he sees his angel
And his thoughts of horror cease
At the window by the fire
She gazes down the winding road
Every day she waits for letters
Deep inside her heart she knows
That the postman has the power
To break her heart or bring her joy
She says a prayer that God would shield him
From the tragedies of war
At the break of day the trumpets
echo out the battle cry
A mighty army rushes forward
As the spears and arrows fly
Though wounded twice he charges onward
‘Tis said his valour saved the day
Giving all for king and country
The sounds of conquest fade away
Down the road a hooded horseman
Makes his way in pouring rain
Could this be the dreaded letter?
His shoulders seem to droop with pain
A chill of fear has left her breathless
As she races to the door
The bitter voice of anguish tells her
That her lover is no more
Evening shadows softly falling
Bring a stillness to the air
Gentle breezes steal the fragrance
From the blossoms in her hair
A thousand prayers so gently whispered
No better shield to save from harm
A wounded knight in tarnished armor
Falls into his angel’s arms

Three, written to my wife when we found each other after a 34 year separation. We went together in high school, then I moved away and we didn’t see or hear from each other again until I saw her name on Classmates.com and the rest, as they say, is history.
“Your Blue Eyes”
Once in the springtime we walked hand in hand
Shared our first kisses, danced our first dance
But then came the summer and though I longed to stay
Caught in a whirlwind, I drifted away
But every so often your thoughts crossed my mind
And deep in my heart I was longing to find
Your blue eyes
The warmth of your touch
Had me mesmerized
Beautiful lady, my first love at last
With every tomorrow you’re calling me back
To your blue eyes, your blue eyes
It seemed like a lifetime, away in the cold
Watching and waiting we gently grew older but
isn’t it lovely how things turn around?
And what was thought lost becomes suddenly found
Like your blue eyes
Your gentle sweet lips have me mesmerized
From school books and braces, from first love to last
With each of your kisses, you’re loving me back
To your blue eyes, your blue eyes
So give me a moment to catch up my breath
And somehow recapture the life that we’ve missed
I’ve left all the past with its troubles and pain
My heart has come home to find you again
And your blue eyes
The depth of your love has me mesmerized
Beautiful lady, my first love, my last
For all my tomorrows I’ll keep coming back
For your blue eyes, your blue eyes
You’re beautiful lady and I’m doming back
To your blue eyes, your blue eyes…
And so, after proposing to her in a double cockpit red biplane over Lake Pleasant in Arizona, we got married almost 2 years ago at the Excalibur in Las Vegas!

Wow what a trully romantic story behind the lirics of this lovely song! It should be famous so everyone can enjoy it!

Les Smutz
Thank you so much!!!
Waleska Luker replied
Thank you for sharing such deeply felt songs. We all feel the sting of a heartbreak

Is trully worth sharing…Congratulations, true love is hard to find…

Kiss me
(Six Pence None The Richer)

Kiss me out of the bearded barley.
Lightly, beside the green, green grass.
Swing, swing, swing the spinning step.
You wear those shoes and I will wear that dress.
Oh, kiss me beneath the milky twilight.
Lead me out on the moonlit floor.
Lift your open hand.
Strike up the band and make the fireflies dance,
silver moon’s sparkling.
So kiss me.
Kiss me down by the broken tree house.
Swing me high upon its hanging tire.
Bring, bring, bring your flowered hat.
We’ll take the trail marked on your father’s map.
Oh, kiss me beneath the milky twilight.
Lead me out on the moonlit floor.
Lift your open hand.
Strike up the band and make the fireflies dance,
silver moon’s sparkling.
So kiss me.
Kiss me beneath the milky twilight.
Lead me out on the moonlit floor.
Lift your open hand.
Strike up the band and make the fireflies dance,
silver moon’s sparkling.
So kiss me.
So kiss me.
So kiss me.
So kiss me.
Les Smutz
yup, that’s it! Love that and can’t listen to it on any website. Something is wrong with my browser, won’t play any sounds at all from the internet. I don’t know what is up with that, but nothing I try in the browser settings seems to work. Wah!
Waleska Luker replied
I am having issues with my internet not even playing my itunes, it stops, hope is not a virus. iaiks!
A picture of me kissing the painting
Les Smutz
My problems started when I had someone remove a virus thing. My computer locked up and I paid a wizard to come and get it unlocked, but since then I have had other problems that I can’t resolve. Most of them I can live with, but not having sound is nuts. I have it for other stuff, just not internet connections, even though the parameters are set to allow sounds. I just don’t get it and can’t afford another wizard. Maybe somebody will read this and offer a suggestion.
Waleska Luker replied
Did you tried calling the person that you paid to have it fix and let them know you are not satisfied with what they did and to come and fix it?
Les Smutz
Not yet, but I may at least ask what to do or if they know. I had a really serious problem and they actually saved the day for me, so I expected some things to be lost or different, but this seems so simple and is clearly not a hardware, but a software or setting problem. Anyway, I may give them a shout. Thanks for that suggestion, though.

If you can depend
On certainty
Count it out and weigh it up again
You can be sure
You’ve reached the end
And still you don’t feel
Do you know you’re beautiful
Do you know you’re beautiful
Do you know you’re beautiful
You are, yes you are, yes you are
If you can ignore
What you’ve become
Take it out and see it die again
You can be here
So who’s a friend
And still you don’t feel
Do you know you’re beautiful
Do you know you’re beautiful
Do you know you’re beautiful
You are, yes you are, yes you are
Yes you are
Innermost thoughts
Will be understood
And you can have all you need
Do you know (do you know about anything)
Do you know (do you know about anyone)
Do you know you’re beautiful
Do you know you’re beautiful
Do you know you’re beautiful
You are, yes you are, yes you are
Do you know you’re beautiful
Do you know you’re beautiful
Do you know you’re beautiful
You are, yes you are, yes you are
Yes, you are

Far Away- nickelback
“Far Away”
This time, This place
Misused, Mistakes
Too long, Too late
Who was I to make you wait
Just one chance
Just one breath
Just in case there’s just one left
‘Cause you know,
you know, you know
[CHORUS]
That I love you
I have loved you all along
And I miss you
Been far away for far too long
I keep dreaming you’ll be with me
and you’ll never go
Stop breathing if
I don’t see you anymore
On my knees, I’ll ask
Last chance for one last dance
‘Cause with you, I’d withstand
All of hell to hold your hand
I’d give it all
I’d give for us
Give anything but I won’t give up
‘Cause you know,
you know, you know
[CHORUS]
So far away
Been far away for far too long
So far away
Been far away for far too long
But you know, you know, you know
I wanted
I wanted you to stay
‘Cause I needed
I need to hear you say
That I love you
I have loved you all along
And I forgive you
For being away for far too long
So keep breathing
‘Cause I’m not leaving you anymore
Believe it
Hold on to me and, never let me go
Keep breathing
‘Cause I’m not leaving you anymore
Believe it
Hold on to me and, never let me go
Keep breathing
Hold on to me and, never let me go
Keep breathing
Hold on to me and, never let me go

Savage Garden Crash and Burn

When you feel all alone
And the world has turned its back on you
Give me a moment please to tame your wild wild heart
I know you feel like the walls are closing in on you
Its hard to find relief and people can be so cold
When darkness is upon your door and you feel like you cant take anymore
Let me be the one you call
If you jump Ill break your fall
Lift you up and fly away with you into the night
If you need to fall apart
I can mend a broken heart
If you need to crash then crash and burn
Youre not alone
When you feel all alone
And a loyal friend is hard to find
Youre caught in a one way street
With the monsters in your head
When hopes and dreams are far away and
You feel like you cant face the day
Let me be the one you call
If you jump Ill break your fall
Lift you up and fly away with you into the night
If you need to fall apart
I can mend a broken heart
If you need to crash then crash and burn
Youre not alone
And there has always been heartache and pain
And when its over youll breathe again
Youll breath again
When you feel all alone
And the world has turned its back on you
Give me a moment please
To tame your wild wild heart
Let me be the one you call
If you jump Ill break your fall
Lift you up and fly away with you into the night
If you need to fall apart
I can mend a broken heart
If you need to crash then crash and burn
Youre not alone

No, no intentes disculparte
No juegues a insistir
Las excusas ya existían antes de ti
No, no me mires como antes
No hables en plural
La retórica es tu arma más letal
Voy a pedirte que no vuelvas más
Siento que me dueles todavía aquí,
Adentro
Y que a tu edad sepas bien lo que es
Romperle el corazón a alguien así
No se puede vivir con tanto veneno,
La esperanza que me da tu amor
No me la dió más nadie,
Te juro, no miento
No se puede vivir con tanto veneno
No se puede dedicar el alma
A acumular intentos
Pesa más la rabia que el cemento
Espero que no esperes que te espere,
Después de mis 26
La paciencia se me ha ido hasta los pies
Y voy deshojando margaritas
Y mirando sin mirar,
Para ver si así te irritas y te vas
Voy a pedirte que no vuelvas más
Siento que me dueles todavía aquí,
Adentro
Y que a tu edad sepas bien lo que es
Romperle el corazón a alguien así
No se puede vivir con tanto veneno
La esperanza que me dió tu amor
No me la dió más nadie
Ya juro, no miento
No se puede morir con tanto veneno
No se puede dedicar el alma
A acumular intentos
Pesa más la rabia que el cemento
No se puede vivir con tanto veneno
No se puede vivir con tanto veneno
No
No
In English:
No, don’t try to apologize
Don’t play the game of persistence
Excuses existed before you did
No, don’t look at me like you did before,
Don’t talk in plural
Rhetoric is your most lethal weapon
I’m going to ask you not to come back ever again
I feel that you are still hurting me here,
Inside
And that at your age you should know well
What it’s like to break someone’s heart like this
No, one can’t live with so much venom
The hope your love gives me
No one else gave me
I swear, I’m not lying
No, one can’t live with so much venom
One shouldn’t devote the soul
To collecting attempts
Rage weighs more than cement
I hope you don’t expect me to wait for you,
After turning twenty six
Patience has sunk all the way down to my feet
So here, I pluck daisy petals
And I’m looking without seeing,
To find out if you’ll get irritated and leave
I’m going to ask you not to come back ever again
I feel that you still can hurt me here,
Inside
And that at your age you should know well
What it’s like to break someone’s heart like this
No, one can’t live with so much venom
The hope your love gave me
No one else gave me
I swear, I’m not lying
No, one can’t die with so much venom
One shouldn’t devote the soul
To collecting attempts
Rage weighs more than cement
No, one can’t live with so much venom
No, one can’t live with so much venom
No
No

Title: The Cure – Just Like Heaven lyrics
Artist: The Cure Lyrics
“Show me how you do that trick
The one that makes me scream” she said
“The one that makes me laugh” she said
And threw her arms around my neck
“Show me how you do it
And I promise you I promise that
I’ll run away with you
I’ll run away with you”
Spinning on that dizzy edge
I kissed her face and kissed her head
And dreamed of all the different ways I had
To make her glow
“Why are you so far away?” she said
“Why won’t you ever know that I’m in love with you
That I’m in love with you”
You
Soft and only
You
Lost and lonely
You
Strange as angels
Dancing in the deepest oceans
Twisting in the water
You’re just like a dream
Daylight licked me into shape
I must have been asleep for days
And moving lips to breathe her name
I opened up my eyes
And found myself alone alone
Alone above a raging sea
That stole the only girl I loved
And drowned her deep inside of me
You
Soft and only
You
Lost and lonely
You
Just like heaven

Evanescence – “My Immortal” Official Video
My Immortal lyrics
I’m so tired of being here
Suppressed by all my childish fears
And if you have to leave
I wish that you would just leave
‘Cause your presence still lingers here
And it won’t leave me alone
These wounds won’t seem to heal
This pain is just too real
There’s just too much that time cannot erase
[Chorus:]
When you cried I’d wipe away all of your tears
When you’d scream I’d fight away all of your fears
And I held your hand through all of these years
But you still have
All of me
You used to captivate me
By your resonating light
Now I’m bound by the life you left behind
Your face it haunts
My once pleasant dreams
Your voice it chased away
All the sanity in me
These wounds won’t seem to heal
This pain is just too real
There’s just too much that time cannot erase
[Chorus]
I’ve tried so hard to tell myself that you’re gone
But though you’re still with me
I’ve been alone all along
[Chorus]

You wake up, suddenly your in love

I sometimes see you pass outside my door
Hello, is it me you’re looking for?
I can see it in your eyes
I can see it in your smile
You’re all I’ve ever wanted, (and) my arms are open wide
‘Cause you know just what to say
And you know just what to do
And I want to tell you so much, I love you …
I long to see the sunlight in your hair
And tell you time and time again how much I care
Sometimes I feel my heart will overflow
Hello, I’ve just got to let you know
‘Cause I wonder where you are
And I wonder what you do
Are you somewhere feeling lonely, or is someone loving you?
Tell me how to win your heart
For I haven’t got a clue
But let me start by saying, I love you …

And I slowly go insane
I hear your voice on the line
But it doesn’t stop the pain
If I see you next to never
How can we say forever
Wherever you go
Whatever you do
I will be right here waiting for you
Whatever it takes
Or how my heart breaks
I will be right here waiting for you
I took for granted, all the times
That I though would last somehow
I hear the laughter, I taste the tears
But I can’t get near you now
Oh, can’t you see it baby
You’ve got me goin’ CrAzY
Wherever you go
Whatever you do
I will be right here waiting for you
Whatever it takes
Or how my heart breaks
I will be right here waiting for you
I wonder how we can survive
This romance
But in the end if I’m with you
I’ll take the chance
Oh, can’t you see it baby

Jumper lyrics
Listen to the song here
I wish you would step back
From that ledge my friend
You could cut ties with all the lies
That you’ve been living in
And if you do not want to see me again
I would understand, I would understand
The angry boy a bit too insane
Icing over a secret pain
You know you don’t belong
You’re the first to fight
You’re way too loud
You’re the flash of light on a burial shroud
I know something’s wrong
Well everyone I know has got a reason
To say put the past away
I wish you would step back
From that ledge my friend
You could cut ties with all the lies
That you’ve been living in
And if you do not want to see me again
I would understand, I would understand
Well he’s on the table and he’s gone to code
And I do not think anyone knows
What they’re doing here
And your friends have left you
You’ve been dismissed
I never thought it would come to this
And I, I want you to know
Everyone’s got to face down the demons
Maybe today
You could put the past away
I wish you would step back from
That ledge my friend
You could cut ties with all the lies
That you’ve been living in
And if you do not want to see me again
I would understand, I would understand
I would understand, I would understand
I would understand, I would understand
Can you put the past away

Too caught up in me to see

Now I can rest my worries and always be sure
That I won’t be alone anymore
If I’d only known you were there all the @me
