John Legend – All of Me

All Of Me

John Legend

What would I do without your smart mouth?
Drawing me in, and you kicking me out
You’ve got my head spinning, no kidding, I can’t pin you down

What’s going on in that beautiful mind?
I’m on your magical mystery ride
And I’m so dizzy, don’t know what hit me, but I’ll be alright

My head’s under water
But I’m breathing fine
You’re crazy and I’m out of my mind’

Cause all of me
Loves all of you
Love your curves and all your edges
All your perfect imperfections

Give your all to me
I’ll give my all to you
You’re my end and my beginning
Even when I lose I’m winning’

Cause I give you all of me
And you give me all of you, oh

How many times do I have to tell you
Even when you’re crying you’re beautiful too
The world is beating you down, I’m around through every mood

You’re my downfall, you’re my muse
My worst distraction, my rhythm and blues
I can’t stop singing, it’s ringing, in my head for you

My head’s under water
But I’m breathing fine
You’re crazy and I’m out of my mind’

Cause all of me
Loves all of you
Love your curves and all your edges
All your perfect imperfections

Give your all to me
I’ll give my all to you
You’re my end and my beginning
Even when I lose I’m winning’

Cause I give you all of me
And you give me all of you, oh

Cards on the table, we’re both showing hearts
Risking it all, though it’s hard’

Cause all of me
Loves all of you
Love your curves and all your edges
All your perfect imperfections

Give your all to me
I’ll give my all to you
You’re my end and my beginning
Even when I lose I’m winning’

Cause I give you all of me
And you give me all of you, of you
I give you all of me
And you give me all of you, oh

Peter Skellern – You’re A Lady #musicaware

 

Peter Skellern You’re A Lady

Lyrics

Now the evening has come to a close
And I’ve had my last dance with you
On to the empty streets we go
And it might be my last chance with you
So I might as well get it over
The things I have to say won’t wait until another day

refrein:
You’re a lady, I’m a man, you’re supposed to understand
How these things are often planned to be
You’re romantic, I’m a fool,
You’re the teacher, I’ve come to school
Here I sit and hope that you’ll love me
You’re pure magic, unlock my chain
Nothing ventured, nothing gained
And so I say with no restraint, be mine, be mine

Hard to answer I agree
But then I’ve got to know
I’m not asking you to marry me
Just a little love to show
Oh I know I could make you happy
So the things I have to say
Won’t wait until another day

refrein

If I Ever Needed Someone

Van Morrison

Lord, if I ever needed someone, I need You
Lord, if I ever needed someone, I need You

See me through the daytime
(See me through the daytime)
And through the long, lonely night
Lead me through the darkness
(Ooh-ooh-ooh) And on into the light

To stand with me when I’m troubled
(Stand with me when I’m troubled)
And help me through my strife
At times, get so uncertain, I turn to You
(Ooh-ooh-ooh) Turn to You in my young life

Lord, if I ever needed someone, I need You
Lord, if I ever needed someone, I need You

Someone to hold on to
(Someone to hold to)
And keep me from all fear
Someone to be my guiding light
(Ooh-ooh-ooh) And keep me ever dear

To keep me from all my selfishness
(Keep me from all selfishness)
To keepin’ me from all my sorrow
To lead me onto givingness
(Ooh-ooh-ooh) So I can see a new tomorrow

Lord, if I ever needed someone, I need You
Lord, if I ever needed someone, I need You

Someone to walk with
Oh, someone to hold by the hand
Someone to talk with
Someone to understand
Eh (yeah)
Yeah (yeah)To call on when I need You
(Call on when I need You)
And I need You very much
To open up my arms to You
(Feel Your tender touch) Feel Your tender touch

To feel it and to keep it
(Feel it and keep it)
Tuck it right here in my soul (yeah-yeah)
And care for it and keep it with me
(Never, never to grow old) Never to grow old

Lord, if I ever needed someone, I need You
Lord, if I ever needed someone, I need You
One more time again
Lord, if I ever needed, needed someone, I need You
Lord, oh, if I ever needed someone, I need You

Lyrics

It really breaks my heart to see a dear old friend
Go down to the worn out place again
Do you know the sound
Of a closing door
Have you heard that sound before
Do you wonder if she knows you anymore
I wrapped your love around me like a chain
But I never was afraid that it would die
You can dance in a hurricane
But only if you’re standing in the eye
Where did you learn to walk
Where did you learn to run
Away from everything you loved
Did you think the bottle
Would ever ease your pain
Did you think that love’s a foolish game
Did you find someone else to take the blame
I wrapped your love around me like a chain
But I never was afraid that it would die
You can dance in a hurricane
But only if you’re standing in the eye
You can dance in a hurricane
But only if you’re standing in the eye
I am a sturdy soul
And there ain’t no shame
In lying down in the bed you made
Can you fight the urge to run for another day
You might make it further if you learn to stay
I wrapped your love around me like a chain
But I never was afraid that it would die
You can dance in a hurricane
But only if you’re standing in the eye
You can dance in a hurricane
But only if you’re standing in the eye

Julian Lennon – Saltwater wells in my eyes

2,138,308 views Mar 5, 2012 Julian Lennon – Saltwater We are a rock revolving Around a golden sun We are a billion children rolled into one So when I hear about the hole in the sky Saltwater wells in my eyes We climb the highest mountain We’ll make the desert bloom We’re so ingenious we can walk on the moon But when I hear of how the forest have died Saltwater wells in my eyes I have lived for love But now that’s not enough For the world I love is dying And now I’m crying And time is not a friend (no friend of mine) As friends we’re out of time And it’s slowly passing by ….right before our eyes We light the deepest ocean Send photographs of Mars We’re so enchanted my how clever we are Why should one baby feel so hungry she cries Saltwater wells in my eyes I have lived for love But now that’s not enough For the world I love is dying And now I’m crying And time is not a friend (no friend of mine) As friends we’re out of time And it’s slowly passing by ….right before our eyes We are a rock revolving Around a golden sun We are a billion children rolled into one What will I think of me the day that I die Saltwater wells in my eyes Saltwater wells in my eyes https://itunes.apple.com/gb/artist/ju…http://store.julianlennon.com/collect…

Gilbert Bécaud – A Little Love and Understanding

A Little Love And Understanding

Lyrics

You’re on your own
And what you need’s
A little love and understanding, hee-hee-hee
A little warmth to tell your soul
A gentle bird that softly sings, hee-hee-hee-hee

Each night my voice happens to sneak
Through your transistor radio, ho-ho-ho
I’m just a secret you can keep
And no one ever needs to know

You’re in that city far away
I’m on the ship way out at sea
You got some problems you can’t face
So leave them behind, any place

For out of sight is out of mind
And in time, and in time, and in time, and in time, and in time
You’ll find peace of mind
Ho-ho-kay-ay (okay), good, good

You’re room is like a desert isle
You often filled with silent tears, hmm-hmm-hmm
So grab your coat, put on a smile
Go out and buy yourself some cheer, hee-hee-hee-hee
Why sit there thinking of the past
Recounting empty days gone by, hah-hah-hah
When you should make each moment last
It isn’t hard to do, just try

Drink to the city far away
To all the sailors ‘way at sea
All those problems you can’t face
So leave them behind, any place

For out of sight is out of mind
And in time, and in time, and in time, and in time, and in time
You’ll find peace of mind
O-kay, hm-hm, (okay), good
