Alicia Keys & John Mayer – If I ain’t got you – Gravity

Lyrics

Some people live for the fortune
Some people live just for the fame
Some people live for the power, yeah
Some people live just to play the game

Some people think
That the physical things
Define what’s within
And I’ve been there before
That life’s a bore
So full of the superficial

Some people want it all
But I don’t want nothing at all
If it ain’t you, baby
If I ain’t got you, baby
Some people want diamond rings
Some just want everything
But everything means nothing
If I ain’t got you, yeah

Some people search for a fountain
Promises forever young
Some people need three dozen roses
And that’s the only way to prove you love them

Hand me the world on a silver platter
And what good would it be
With no one to share, with no one who truly cares for me

Some people want it all
But I don’t want nothing at all
If it ain’t you, baby
If I ain’t got you, baby
Some people want diamond rings
Some just want everything
But everything means nothing
If I ain’t got you, you, you

Some people want it all
But I don’t want nothing at all
If it ain’t you, baby
If I ain’t got you, baby
Some people want diamond rings
Some just want everything
But everything means nothing
If I ain’t got you, yeah

If I ain’t got you with me, baby, oh, ooh
Said nothing in this whole wide world don’t mean a thing
If I ain’t got you with me, baby

Beyoncé – Halo

Lyrics

I love the way you walk into the room
Body shining lightin’ up the place
And when you talk, everybody stop
‘Cause they know you know just what you sayin’
The way that you protect your friends
Baby I respect you for that
And when you grow you’ll take everyone you love along
I love that shit
Don’t fly me away
Don’t need to buy a diamond key to unlock my heart
You shelter my soul, you’re my fire when I’m cold
I want you to know
You had me at hello
Hello, hello
‘Cause you had me at hello
Hello, hello
‘Cause it was many years ago
Baby when you stole my cool
‘Cause you had me at hello
Hello, hello
I get so excited when you travel with me
Baby while I’m on my grind
And never will I ever let my hustle
Come between me and my family time and
You keep me humble, I like this type
‘Cause you know there’s more to life
And if I need ya, you will be here
You will make the sacrifice
Wanna feel you, wanna be near you
You’re the air that I breathe to survive
I wanna know you, wanna show you
That without you my sun doesn’t shine
You don’t have to try so hard for me to love you
Boy without you my life just ain’t the same
You don’t have to try so hard for me to love you
‘Cause you had me at Hello
Hello, Hello
‘Cause you had me at Hello
Hello, Hello
Baby it was many years ago, when you stole my cool
Baby you had me at Hello
Hello, Hello
HELLO
HELLO
HELLO
HELLO
Hello, Hello
Hello

Bright Blue Rose

Christy Moore

I skimmed across black water, without once submerging
Onto the banks of an urban morning
That hungers the first light, much much more
Than mountains ever do.
And she like a ghost beside me goes down with the ease of a dolphin
And emerges unlearned, unscathed, unharmed.
For she is the perfect creature, natural in every feature
And I am the geek with the alchemists stone.
For all of you who must discover, for all who seek to understand

For having left the path of others, you find a very special hand

And it is a holy thing, and it is a precious time
And it is the only way
Forget-me-nots among the snow, it’s always been and so it goes
To ponder his death and his life eternally
For all of you who must discover, for all who seek to understand

For having left the path of others, you find a very special hand

And it is a holy thing, and it is a precious time
And it is the only way
Forget-me-nots among the snow, it’s always been and so it goes
To ponder his death and his life eternally
One bright blue rose outlives all those
Two thousand years and still it goes
To ponder his death and his life eternally

Damien Rice – Cannonball – Official Video

Cannonball
Damien Rice

Still a little bit of your taste in my mouth
Still a little bit of you laced with my doubt
Still a little hard to say what’s going on
Still a little bit of your ghost, your witness
Still a little bit of your face I haven’t kissed
You step a little closer each day
That I can’t say what’s going on
Stones taught me to fly
Love taught me to lie
And life taught me to die
So it’s not hard to fall
When you float like a cannonball
Still a little bit of your song in my ear
Still a little bit of your words I long to hear
You step a little closer to me
So close that I can’t see what’s going on
Stones taught me to fly
Love it taught me to lie
And life taught me to die
So it’s not hard to fall
When you float like a cannon
Stones taught me to fly
Love taught me to cry
So come on courage
Teach me to be shy
‘Cause it’s not hard to fall
And I don’t wanna scare her
It’s not hard to fall
And I don’t wanna lose
It’s not hard to grow
When you know that you just don’t know

Miley Cyrus – The Backyard Sessions -“Jolene” by Dolly Parton #musicaware

Jolene

Dolly Parton

Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
I’m begging of you please don’t take my man
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
Please don’t take him just because you can

Your beauty is beyond compare
With flaming locks of auburn hair
With ivory skin and eyes of emerald green
Your smile is like a breath of spring
Your voice is soft like summer rain
And I cannot compete with you
Jolene

He talks about you in his sleep
And there’s nothing I can do to keep
From crying when he calls your name
Jolene

And I can easily understand
How you could easily take my man
But you don’t know what he means to me
Jolene

Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
I’m begging of you please don’t take my man
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
Please don’t take him just because you can

You could have your choice of men
But I could never love again
He’s the only one for me
Jolene

I had to have this talk with you
My happiness depends on you
And whatever you decide to do
Jolene

Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
I’m begging of you please don’t take my man
Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Jolene
Please don’t take him even though you can
Jolene, Jolene
