Annie Lennox - Love Song for a Vampire

Annie Lennox
"Love Song For A Vampire"

Come into these arms again
And lay your body down
The rhythm of this trembling heart
Is beating like a drum

It beats for you - It bleeds for you
It knows not how it sounds
For it is the drum of drums
It is the song of songs...

Once I had the rarest rose
That ever deigned to bloom.
Cruel winter chilled the bud
And stole my flower too soon.

Oh loneliness - oh hopelessness
To search the ends of time
For there is in all the world
No greater love than mine.

Love, oh love, oh love...
Still falls the rain... (still falls the rain)
Love, oh love, oh, love...
Still falls the night...
Love, oh love, oh love...
Be mine forever.... (be mine forever)
Love, oh love, oh love....

Let me be the only one
To keep you from the cold
Now the floor of heaven's lain
With stars of brightest gold

They shine for you - they shine for you
They burn for all to see
Come into these arms again
And set this spirit free

ONE

Some random internet commentor confuses "One Direction" with "One Republic"... Haha.  While I like many songs from One Republic, the only song I somewhat know from "One Direction" is "What Makes You Beautiful".  Oh, and the first line from the chorus of "Story of My Life" (That always reminds me of Simple Plan's song under the same name, though)

So... let's give their songs a try today!

One Republic - Apologize

The one song that makes them well known.

One Direction - Night Changes

Two more plugs from the brothers group (?) NEWS and KAT-TUN:

NEWS - One for the Win

Theme song for Brazil World Cup 2014.  Sing-along and announce each country's name!
Seems like the song that NEWS usually performs when they go on end-of-year TV shows.

Tanaka and Nakamaru - One on One

Group "Tanaka"'s collaboration.  I like it.  I am amazed every time Nakamaru does his beat-box sequence.  *____*

Hey Monday and Cassadee Pope

Her voice is my type.

Jodin Sparks - Tattoo

No matter what you say about love
I keep coming back for more
Keep my hand in the fire
Sooner or later I get what I'm asking for

No matter what you say about life
I learn every time I bleed
The truth is a stranger
Soul is in danger I gotta let my spirit be free
To admit that I'm wrong and then change my mind
Sorry but I have to move on and leave you behind

I can't waste time so give it a moment
I realize nothings broken
No need to worry about everything I've done
Live every second like it was my last one
Don't look back got a new direction
I loved you once, needed protection
You're still a part of everything I do
You're on my heart just like a tattoo
Just like a tattoo
I'll always have you (I'll always have you)

Sick of playing all of these games
It's not about taking sides
When I looked in the mirror didn't deliver
It hurt enough to think that I could stop
Admit that I'm wrong and then change my mind
Sorry but I've gotta be strong and leave you behind

I can't waste time so give it a moment
I realize nothings broken
No need to worry about everything I've done
Live every second like it was my last one
Don't look back got a new direction
I loved you once, needed protection
You're still a part of everything I do
You're on my heart just like a tattoo
Just like a tattoo
I'll always have you (I'll always have you)

If I live every moment
Won't change any moment
There's still a part of me in you
I will never regret you
Still the memory of you
Marks everything I do, oh

I can't waste time so give it a moment
I realize nothings broken (yeah)
No need to worry about everything I've done
Live every second like it was my last one
Don't look back got a new direction (don't look back)
I loved you once, needed protection (no, no)
You're still a part of everything I do
You're on my heart just like a tattoo

I can't waste time so give it a moment (i can't waste time)
I realized nothings broken
No need to worry about everything I've done (no need to worry)
Live every second like it was my last one
Don't look back at got a new direction (don't you ever look back)
I loved you once and I needed protection
You're still a part of everything I do
You're on my heart just like a tattoo
Just like a tattoo
I'll always have you

Whenever I need some courage, I listen to this song.

Liz Phair - Why Can't I

Lady Antebellum - Need You Now

Lady Antebellum - Need You Now

Picture perfect memories,
Scattered all around the floor.
Reaching for the phone cause, I cant fight it anymore.
And I wonder if I ever cross your mind.
For me it happens all the time.


I love this line...

Its a quarter after one, I'm all alone and I need you now.
Said I wouldn't call, but I lost all control and I need you now.
And I don't know how I can do without, I just need you now.

Another shot of whiskey, can't stop looking at the door.
Wishing you'd come sweeping in the way you did before.
And I wonder if I ever cross your mind.
For me it happens all the time.

Its a quarter after one, Im a little drunk,
And I need you now.
Said I wouldn't call but I lost all control and I need you now.
And I don't know how I can do without, I just need you now.

Yes I'd rather hurt than feel nothing at all.
It's a quarter after one, I'm all alone and I need you now.
And I said I wouldn't call but I'm a little drunk and I need you now.
And I don't know how I can do without, I just need you now.
I just need you now.
Oh baby I need you now.

Snow Patrol - Chasing Cars

We'll do it all
Everything
On our own

We don't need
Anything
Or anyone

If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?

I don't quite know
How to say
How I feel

Those three words
Are said too much
They're not enough

If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?

Forget what we're told
Before we get too old
Show me a garden that's bursting into life

Let's waste time
Chasing cars
Around our heads

I need your grace
To remind me
To find my own

If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?

Forget what we're told
Before we get too old
Show me a garden that's bursting into life

All that I am
All that I ever was
Is here in your perfect eyes, they're all I can see

I don't know where
Confused about how as well
Just know that these things will never change for us at all

If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?

Ivana Wong - Mary Had a Little Clock

Morbid song for a morbid Friday the 13th.





Mary had a little clock
  that worked in its own way
Just another afternoon in May
Children playing
  Birds were singing
    Postmen said hello
What if Mary wasn't late that day

Johnny was a lonely man
  who had not much to say
He is now on the roof to say goodbye
He was so in love with
Mary when she was engaged
Sadly he was not her fiance

So God I ask why today,
Are they not dear enough to you? Did they not pray?
Is that how you work your way?
Now I'm so afraid
To some it was one fine day
To them the very end of life well that's their fate
So thats how people come and go
What's gonna happen no one knows

Johnny took a breath
and quietly he jumped off the roof
What if Mary wasn't late that day

So God I ask why today,
are they not dear enough to you? Did they not pray?
Is that how you work your own way?
Now I'm so afraid
To some it was one fine day
To them the very end of life well thats their fate
So thats how people come and go
Whats gonna happen no one knows

So God I ask why today,
Well she had everything she dreamt of yesterday
But now the happiness subside
Will she rest in peace
in her own grave?
About him I dare not say,
He landed on her head and broke her neck they say
So thats how tragic life can be
Too bad that many still don't see

Mary had a little clock
that works in its own way
Yet she never has another day

Michael Bublé - "Haven't Met You Yet"

The new song I learned about today.

The lyrics are quite real.  The MV is cute--make sure you watch till the end!!!  Bonus points to the song cuz of the MV.  Haha XD GLAY's SORRY LOVE receives a bonus because of the MV, too. 



Michael Bublé - "Haven't Met You Yet" Lyrics

I'm Not Surprised
Not Everything Lasts
I've Broken My Heart So Many Times,
I Stop Keeping Track.
Talk Myself In
I Talk Myself Out
I Get All Worked Up
And Then I Let Myself Down.

I Tried So Very Hard Not To Loose It
I Came Up With A Million Excuses
I Thought I Thought Of Every Possibility

And I Know Someday That It'll All Turn Out
You'll Make Me Work So We Can Work To Work It Out
And I Promise You Kid That I'll Give So Much More Than I Get
I Just Haven't Met You Yet

Mmmmm ....

I Might Have To Wait
I'll Never Give Up
I Guess It's Half Timing
And The Other Half's Luck
Wherever You Are
Whenever It's Right
You Come Out Of Nowhere And Into My Life

And I Know That We Can Be So Amazing
And Baby Your Love Is Gonna Change Me
And Now I Can See Every Possibility

Mmmmm ......

And Somehow I Know That It Will All Turn Out
And You'll Make Me Work So We Can Work To Work It Out
And I Promise You Kid I'll Give So Much More Than I Get
I Just Haven't Met You Yet

They Say All's Fair
And In Love And War
But I Won't Need To Fight It
We'll Get It Right
And We'll Be United

And I Know That We Can Be So Amazing
And Being In Your Life Is Gonna Change Me
And Now I Can See Every Single Possibility

Mmmm .....

And Someday I Know It'll All Turn Out
And I'll Work To Work It Out
Promise You Kid I'll Give More Than I Get
Than I Get Than I Get Than I Get

Oh You Know It'll All Turn Out
And You'll Make Me Work So We Can Work To Work It Out
And I Promise You Kid To Give So Much More Than I Get
Yeah I Just Haven't Met You Yet

I Just Haven't Met You Yet
Oh Promise You Kid
To Give So Much More Than I Get

I Said Love Love Love Love Love Love Love .....
I Just Haven't Met You Yet
Love Love Love .....
I Just Haven't Met You Yet
