David Gray - Babylon

    *** David Gray - Babylon ***

    Lyrics

    Friday night I’m going nowhere
    All the lights are changing green to red
    Turning over TV stations
    Situations running through my head
    Looking back through time
    You know it’s clear that I’ve been blind
    I’ve been a fool
    To open up my heart
    To all that jealousy, that bitterness, that ridicule

    Saturday I’m running wild
    And all the lights are changing red to green
    Moving through the crowds I’m pushing
    Chemicals all rushing in my bloodstream
    Only wish that you were here
    You know I’m seeing it so clear
    I’ve been afraid
    To show you how I really feel
    Admit to some of those bad mistakes I’ve made

    If you want it
    Come and get it
    Crying out loud
    The love that I was
    Giving you was
    Never in doubt
    Let go your heart
    Let go your head
    And feel it now
    Let go your heart
    Let go your head
    And feel it now

    Babylon
    Babylon
    Babylon

    Sunday all the lights of London
    Shining , Sky is fading red to blue
    I’m kicking through the Autumn leaves
    And wondering where it is you might be going to
    Turning back for home
    You know I’m feeling so alone
    I can’t believe
    Climbing on the stair
    I turn around to see you smiling there
    In front of me

    If you want it
    Come and get it
    Crying out loud
    The love that I was
    Giving you was
    Never in doubt
    Let go your heart
    Let go your head
    And feel it now
    Let go your heart
    Let go your head
    And feel it now
    Let go your heart
    Let go your head
    And feel it now
    Let go of your heart
    Let go of your head
    And feel it now

    Babylon
    Babylon
    Babylon
    Babylon

The Corrs - Only When I Sleep

    *** The Corrs - Only When I Sleep ***

    Lyrics

    You’re only just a dreamboat
    Sailing in my head
    You swim my secret oceans
    Of coral blue and red
    Your smell is incense burning
    Your touch is silken yet
    It reaches through my skin
    And moving from within
    It clutches at my breast

    But it’s only when I sleep
    See you in my dreams
    You got me spinning round and round
    Turning upside-down
    But I only hear you breathe

    Somewhere in my sleep
    Got me spinning round and round
    Turning upside-down
    But its only when I sleep

    And when I wake from slumber
    Your shadow’s disappear
    Your breath is just a sea mist
    Surrounding my body
    I’m workin’ through the daytime
    But when it’s time to rest
    I’m lying in my bed
    Listening to my breath
    Falling from the edge

    But it’s only when I sleep
    See you in my dreams, (dreams)
    You got me spinning round and round
    Turning upside-down
    But I only hear you breathe
    Somewhere in my sleep, (in my sleep)
    Got me spinning round and round
    Turning upside-down
    But its only when I sleep
    It’s only when I sleep

    [Sharon & Andrea solo]

    Up to the sky
    Where angels fly
    I’ll never die
    Hawaiian High
    In bed I lie
    No need to cry
    My sleeping cry
    Hawaiian High

    It’s reaching through my skin
    Movin’ from within
    And clutches at my breasts…

    But it’s only when I sleep…
    See you in my dreams, (dreams)
    You got me spinning round and round
    Turning upside-down
    But I only hear you breathe

    In bed I lie
    No need to cry
    My sleeping cry
    Hawaiian High

    But it’s only when I sleep…
    Got me spinning round and round
    (Turning upside-down)

    Up to the sky
    Where angels fly
    I’ll never die
    Hawaiian High
    But it’s only when I sleep…

Travis - My Eyes

*** Travis - My Eyes ***

Lyrics

Deep in my heart, there’s no room for crying,
But I’m trying to see your point of view
Deep in my heart, I’m afraid I’m dying,
I’d be lying if I said I’m not

Welcome in, welcome in,
Shame about the weather
Welcome in, welcome in,
You’re welcome
It’s a sin, it’s a sin,
Where birds of a feather, are welcome to, land on you

Ya Ya Ya
Ya Ya Ya

You’ve got my eyes
And we can’t see, what you’ll be, you can’t disguise
But either way, I will pray, you will be wise
Pretty soon you will see, tears in my eyes..

As each day goes by, makes way for another,
We discover that we’re not alone
And each day we try, the best we can to recover,
All the feelings that we left below

Welcome in, welcome in,
Shame about the weather
Welcome in, welcome in,
You’re welcome
It’s a sin, it’s a sin,
Where birds of a feather, are welcome to, land on you

Ya Ya Ya
Ya Ya Ya

You’ve got my eyes
We can’t see, what you’ll be, you can’t disguise
But either way, I will pray, you will be wise
Pretty soon you will see the tears in my eyes..

Welcome in, welcome in,
Shame about the weather
Welcome in, welcome in,
You’re welcome
It’s a sin, it’s a sin,
Where birds of a feather, are welcome to, land on you…

Ya Ya Ya
Ya Ya Ya

You’ve got my eyes
And We can’t see, what you’ll be, you can’t disguise
But either way, I will pray, you will be wise
Pretty soon you will see the tears in my eyes
Pretty soon you will see the tears in my eyes

Pretty soon you will see the tears in my eyes…

Lenny Kravitz - I’ll Be Waiting

*** Lenny Kravitz - I’ll Be Waiting ***

Lyrics

He broke your heart
He took your soul
You’re hurt inside
‘Cause there’s a hole
You need some time
To be alone
Then you will find
What you’ve always known

I’m the one who really loves you, baby
I’ve been knocking at your door

And as long as I’m living
I’ll be waiting
As long as I’m breathing
I’ll be there
Whenever you call me
I’ll be waiting
Whenever you need me
I’ll be there

I’ve seen you cry
Into the night
I feel your pain
Can I make it right?
I realize
There’s no end in sight
Yet still I wait
For you to see the light

I’m the one who really loves you, baby
I can’t take it anymore

And as long as I’m living
I’ll be waiting
As long as I’m breathing
I’ll be there
Whenever you call me
I’ll be waiting
Whenever you need me
I’ll be there

You are the only one I’ve ever known
That makes me feel this way, couldn’t on my own
I wanna be with you until we’re old
You’ve got the love you need right in front of you, please come home

As long as I’m living
I’ll be waiting
As long as I’m breathing
I’ll be there
Whenever you call me
I’ll be waiting
Whenever you need me
I’ll be there

As long as I’m living
I’ll be waiting
As long as I’m breathing
I’ll be there
Whenever you call me
I’ll be waiting
Whenever you need me
I’ll be there

David Gray - This Year’s Love

 

    *** David Gray - This Year’s Love ***

    Lyrics

    This year’s love had better last
    Heaven knows it’s high time
    And I’ve been waiting on my own too long
    But when you hold me like you do
    It feels so right
    I start to forget
    How my heart gets torn
    When that hurt gets thrown
    Feeling like you can’t go on

    Turning circles when time again
    It cuts like a knife oh yeah
    If you love me got to know for sure
    ‘Cos it takes something more this time
    Than sweet sweet lies
    Before I open up my arms and fall
    Losing all control
    Every dream inside my soul
    And when you kiss me
    On that midnight street
    Sweep me off my feet
    Singing ain’t this life so sweet

    This year’s love had better last
    This year’s love had better last

    So who’s to worry
    If our hearts get torn
    When that hurt gets thrown
    Don’t you know this life goes on
    And won’t you kiss me
    On that midnight street
    Sweep me off my feet
    Singing ain’t this life so sweet

    This year’s love had better last
    This year’s love had better last
    This year’s love had better last
    This year’s love had better last
