All We'd Ever Need

2008-09-24T13:05:00.000-07:00

Lady Antebellum

Boy it's been all this time,
and I can't get you off my mind,
and nobody knows it but me.
I stare at your photograph,
still sleep in the shirt you left,
and nobody knows it but me.
Everyday I wipe my tears away,
so many nights I've *prayed for you to say.

I should have been chasing you,
I should have been trying to prove,
that you were all that mattered to me,
I should have said all the things,
that I kept inside of me and maybe,
I could have made you believe,
that what we had was all we'd ever need.

My friends think I'm moving on,
but the truth is I'm not that strong and nobody knows it but me.
And I've kept all the words you said,
in a box underneath my bed,
and nobody knows it but me.

But if you're happy I'll get through somehow,
but the truth is that I've been screaming out.

I should have been chasing you,
I should have been trying to prove,
that you were all that mattered to me,
I should have said all the things,
that I kept inside of me and maybe,
I could have made you believe,
that what we had was all we'd ever need.

It was all we'd ever need.

Oh, thought it was all we'd ever need.

dont think i dont think about it

2008-09-20T19:43:00.000-07:00

I left out in a cloud of taillights and dust
Swore I wasn't coming back, said I'd had enough
Saw you in the rear view standing fading from my life
But I wasn't turning around, no not this time but

Chorus:
Don't Think I Don't Think About It
Don't think I don't have regrets
Don't think it don't get to me
Between the work and the hurt and the whiskey
Don't think I don't wonder 'bout
Could've been, should'a been all worked out
I know what I felt and I know what i said but
Don't Think I Don't Think About It

When we make choices we gotta live with them
Heard you found a real good man and you married him
I wonder if sometimes I cross your mind
Where would we be today if I never drove that car away

Repeat Chorus

Don't Think I Don't Think about it

Repeat Chorus

Don't Think I Don't
Don't Think I Don't

Gone

2008-09-16T06:50:00.000-07:00

This ain't no temporary, typical, tearful goodbye
Uh uh uh
This ain't no breakin' up, then wakin' up
and makin' up one more time
Uh uh uh
This is gone, gone, gone, gone

Gone like a freight train
Gone like yesterday
Gone like a soldier in the Civil War:Bang Bang!
Gone like a '59 Cadillac
Like all the good things that ain't never comin' back
She's gone, gone, gone, gone
She's gone!

This ain't no 'give it time, I'm hurtin' but maybe we can work it out'
Uh uh uh
Won't be no champagne, red rose, romance, second chance
Uh uh uh
This is gone, gone, gone, gone

Gone like a freight train
Gone like yesterday
Gone like a soldier in the Civil War: Bang Bang!
Gone like a '59 Cadillac
Like all the good things, that ain't never comin' back
She's gone, gone, gone, gone
She's gone!

This is gone, gone, gone, gone
Gone like a freight train
Gone like yesterday
Gone like a soldier in the Civil War: Bang Bang!
Gone like a '59 Cadillac
Like all the good things that ain't never comin' back
She's gone, gone, gone, gone
She's gone!

She's gone!
Gone like a freight train
Gone like yesterday
Gone like a soldier in the Civil War:
Gone like a '59 Cadillac
Like all the good things
She's gone

Long gone, don't be wrong,
never comin' back, my baby's gone
She's gone
Lonely at home, sittin' alone,
she packed her bags, and now she's gone
Never comin' back, she's gone
No, no, never

you look good in my shirt

2008-08-22T20:41:00.000-07:00

When you walked up behind me and covered my eyes
And whispered in my ear, guess who
I rattled off names like I really didn't know
But all along I knew it was you

And, the longer we talked, the more we laughed
And wondered why we didn't last
It had been a long time, but later last night
Baby, we caught up real fast

And maybe it's a little too early
To know if this is gonna work
All I know is you're sure looking
Good in my shirt
That's right
You look good in my shirt

Well now I'm not saying that we solved overnight
Every way that we went wrong
Oh, but what I'm seeing I'd sure love seeing
Every morning from now on

And maybe it's a little too early
To know if this is gonna work
All I know is you're sure looking
Good in my shirt

C'mon now
Aww that's right
Oh you look so fine

And maybe it's a little too early
To know if this is gonna work
All I know is you're sure looking
Good in my shirt

And maybe it's a little too early
To know if this is gonna work
All I know is you're sure looking
Good in my shirt
You look good in my shirt
You look good in my shirt

Heaven, Heartache and The Power of Love

2008-08-20T18:10:00.000-07:00

They say up in heaven the streets are gold
Once you get past the pearly gates
And the angels are singin'
At the top of a dove white staircase

And I say heartache can burn you down like hell
Leave you beggin' "Baby, please don't go"
'Til you're scrapin' rock bottom
And cryin' in a deep, dark hole

Oh, and love can make you fly like a rocket
Put you on top of the world

I'm talkin' 'bout
Heaven - it's where I hope I'm goin'
Heartache - that's where I've been
Heaven, heartache and the power of love

Well the preacher says when your time is up
You take a chariot to the lord
Well I'm hopin' my chariot's
A torch red Thunderbird Ford

And my old flame said "I hate to break it to you darlin'"
"I was born the leavin' kind"
Left me standin' in the drive
Cryin' why baby, why baby, why?

Oh, but real love's got me back in the saddle
Shoutin' "Amen!" again

why can't i breathe?

2008-08-17T11:19:00.000-07:00

Get a load of me, get a load of you
Walkin' down the street, and I hardly know you
It's just like we were meant to be

Holding hands with you when we're out at night
Got a girlfriend, you say it isn't right
And I've got someone waiting too

What if this is just the beginning
We're already wet, and we're gonna go swimming

Why can't I breathe whenever I think about you
Why can't I speak whenever I talk about you
It's inevitable, it's a fact that we're gonna get down to it
So tell me
Why can't I breathe whenever I think about you

Isn't this the best part of breakin' up
Finding someone else you can't get enough of
Someone who wants to be with you too

It's an itch we know we are gonna scratch
Gonna take a while for this egg to hatch
But wouldn't it be beautiful

Here we go, we're at the beginning
We haven't _spun_ yet, but my head is spinning

Why can't I breathe whenever I think about you
Why can't I speak whenever I talk about you
It's inevitable, it's a fact that we're gonna get down to it
So tell me
Why can't I breathe whenever I think about you

I'd love for you to make me wonder
Where it's goin'
I'd love for you to pull me under
Somethin's growin'
out of this that we can control
Baby I am dyin'

Why can't I breathe whenever I think about you
Why can't I speak whenever I talk about you
Why can't I breathe whenever I think about you
Why can't I speak whenever I talk about you
It's inevitable, it's a fact that we're gonna get down to it
So tell me
Why can't I breathe whenever I think about you

Realize - COlibe Caillat

2008-08-17T11:14:00.000-07:00

Take time to realize,
That your worth is
Crashing down on in.
Take time to realize,
That I am on your si-i-i-de
Didn't I, didn't I tell you.

But I can't spell it out for you,
No, it's never gonna be that simple
But I can't spell it out for you

If you just realize what I've just realized,
Then we'd be perfect for each other
And we'll never find another
Just realized what I just realized
We'd never have to wonder if
We missed out on each other now.

Take time to realize
Oh-oh I'm on your si-i-i-de
Didn't I, didn't I tell you.
Take time to realize
That this all can pass by
Didn't I didn't I tell you
[Refrain:]
But I can't spell it out for you,
No it's never gonna be that simple
But I can't spell it out for you.

If you just realized what I just realized
Then we'd be perfect for each other
And we'd never find another
Just realized what I've just realized
We'd never have to wonder if
We missed out on each other but.

It's not that the same
No it's never the sa-a-ame
If you don't feel it too.
If you meet me half way
If you 'd meet me half way.
It could be the same for you.

If you just realize what I just realized
Then we'd be perfect for each other
And we'd never find another
Just realize what I just realized
We'd never have to wonder no-o-w

Just realize what I just realized

If you just realize what I just realized

Oh...

Missed out on each other now
Missed out on each other now
Missed out on each other now

Realize, realize
Realize, realize

Sign on the Door - Kasey Chambers

2008-08-16T08:17:00.000-07:00

Im a believer, i paid for my sins,
Stand over the water, watch my ship come in,
Well i was blind, but now i see,
It was right there in front of me.

I was the reason for a perfect mess,
I covered up my failure and called it happiness,
I've been untrue, I've been unkind,

You came in like a lightning from the sky,
Picking up the pieces in the middle of the night,
I cried "oh baby im broke and there's a price your guna pay",
And you jumped in the fire and you saved me anyway.

Open up the sky, All gather round,
Praise the lord and take a look at what i found,
I've got a love thats a big as a raging storm,
I got walls coming down that i dont need no more,
And i got a sign on the door that says,
Lonely dont live here anymore.

There was a moment i prayed for my soul,
I crawled in and out of that deep, dark hole,
I cried in the morning, well i cried in the night,
I was a drifter, caught i the wind,
Prepared to lose but i was trying to win,
And i was breaking all the records on giving in.

You came in like a lightning from the sky,
Picking up the pieces in the middle of the night,
I cried "oh baby im broke and there's a price your guna pay",
And you jumped in the fire and you saved me anyway.

Open up the sky, All gather round,
Praise the lord and take a look at what i found,
I've got a love thats a big as a raging storm,
I got walls coming down that i dont need no more,
And i got a sign on the door that says,
Lonely dont live here anymore.

You came around while i was walking on the wire,
And you stood there underneath me and you saved me from the fire,
And God might be the king in the land of the free,
But your the blessid saviour, you're the one i need.

Open up the sky, All gather round,
Praise the lord and take a look at what i found,
I've got a love thats a big as a raging storm,
I got walls coming down that i dont need no more,
And i got a sign on the door that says,
Lonely dont live here anymore,
Dont live here anymore.

Open up the sky,
And gather round,
Praise the lord,
Praise the lord,
Praise the lord,
Praise the lord.
Take a look at what i found
Look at what i found..

killing the blues

2008-06-25T12:33:00.000-07:00

Leaves were falling, just like embers,
In colors red and gold, they set us on fire
Burning just like moonbeams in our eyes.

Somebody said they saw me, swinging the world by the tail
Bouncing over a white cloud, killing the blues.

Now I'm guilty of something...
I hope you never do
Because there is nothing
sadder than losing yourself in love.

Somebody said they saw me, swinging the world by the tail
Bouncing over a white cloud, killing the blues.

And then you ask me... just to leave you
To go out on my own
And get what I need to.
You want me to find what I've already had.

Somebody said they saw me, swinging the world by the tail
Bouncing over a white cloud, killing the blues.
Somebody said they saw me, swinging the world by the tail
Bouncing over a white cloud, killing the blues.

Better as a Memory

2008-06-21T07:26:00.000-07:00

move on like a sinner's prayer
lettin go like a levee breaks
walk away as if i don't care
learn to shoulder my mistakes
i'm 'bout to fade like your favorite song
get reckless when there's no need
laugh as your stories ramble on
break my heart but it won't bleed
my only friends are pirates, it's just who i am
i'm better as a memory than as your man.

i'm never sure when the truth won't do
i'm pretty good on a lonely night
i move on the way a storm blows through
i never stay, but then again, i might
i struggle sometimes to find the words
always sure until i doubt
walk a line until it blurs
build walls too high to climb out
but i'm honest to a fault, it's just who i am
i'm better as a memory than as your man

I see you leanin', you're bound to fall
I don't wanna be that mistake
i'm just a dreamer, nothing more
you should know it before it gets too late

cause goodbyes are like a roulette wheel
you never know where they're gonna land
first you're spinning, then you're standing still
left holding a losin' hand
one day you're gonna find someone
right away, you'll know it's true
that all of your seeking is done
Its just a part of the passing through
right there in that moment
you'll finally understand
that i was better as a memory than as your man
better as a memory than as your man
better as a memory than as your man

bluer than blue

2008-05-28T08:35:00.000-07:00

After you go
I can catch uo on my reading
After you go
I'll have a lot more time to sleep in
And when you're gone
Looks like things are gonna be a lot easier
Life will be a breeze you know
I really should be glad

But I'm bluer than blue
Sadder than sad
You're the only light
This empty room has ever had
Life without you is gonna be
Bluer than blue

After you go
I'll have a lot more room in my closet
After you go
I'll stay out all night long if I feel like it
And when you're gone
I can run through the house screaming
And no one will ever hear me
I really should be glad

But I'm bluer than blue
Sadder than sad
You're the only light
This empty room has ever had
Life without you is gonna be
Bluer than blue

I don't have to miss no TV shows
I can start my whole life over
Change the numbers on my telephone
But the nights will sure be colder

And I'm bluer than blue
Sadder than sad
You're the only light
This empty room has ever had
Life without you is gonna be
Bluer than blue

Bluer than blue
Bluer than blue

I want to love somebody like you

2008-05-07T07:54:00.000-07:00

There's a new wind blowing like I've never known.
I'm breathing deeper then I've ever done.
And it sure feels good to finally feel the way I do.
I wanna love somebody, love somebody like you.

And I'm letting go of all my lonely yesterdays.
I've forgivin' myself for the mistakes I've made.
Now there's just one thing, the only thing I wanna do. mmmmhmmm...
I wanna love somebody, love somebody like you.

Yeahhhh! I wanna feel the sun shine, shining down on me and you.
When you put your arms around me, you let me know there's nothing in this world I can't doooo...

I used to run in circles going nowhere fast.
I'd take one step forward and a two steps back.
Couldn't walk a straight line, even if I wanted to. mmmmhmmm...
I wanna love somebody, love somebody like you.

...Woah here we go now!... WOOO! ... Yeah!!

...Hey wanna love ya baby. uh huh... ooh no...

Yeah... I wanna feel the sun shine, shining down on me and you. OOOh.
When you put your arms around me, well baby there ain't nothing in this world I can't dooo....

Sometimes its hard for me to understand, but your teaching me to be a better man.
I dont wanna take this life for granted like I used to do. no no...
I wanna love somebody, love somebody like you.

I'm ready to love somebody, love somebody like you. mmmm...

I wanna love somebody, love somebody like you... yeah.
ha ha!
Hey ..I wanna love ya baby! WOOO!! uh huh.. yeah....

(I'm not) Missing You (at all)

2008-04-29T11:18:00.000-07:00

Every time I think of you
I always catch my breath,
and I'm still standing here and you're miles away
And I'm wondering why you left
And theres a storm thats raging
Through my frozen heart tonight
I hear your name in certain circles
And it always makes me smile
I spend my time thinking about you
And its almost driving me wild

And it's my heart that's breaking
Down this long distance line tonight
I aint missing you at all since you've been gone away
I aint missing you no matter what my friends say

Theres a message in the wild
And Im sending you this signal tonight
You don't know how desperate Ive become
And it looks like I'm losing this fight
In your world I have no meaning
Though I'm trying hard to understand

And it's my heart that's breaking
Down this long distance line tonight
I aint missing you at all since you've been gone away
I aint missing you no matter what my friends say

And theres a message that I'm sending out, like a telegraph to your soul
And if I cant bridge this distance -- stop this heartbreak overload

I aint missing you at all since you've been gone away
I aint missing you no matter what my friends say

I aint missing you
I aint missing you
I keep lying to myself
And theres a storm that's raging
Through my frozen heart tonight
I aint missing you at all since you've been gone away
I aint missing you no matter what my friends say
Aint missing you
I aint missing you
I aint missing you
I keep lying to myself
Aint missing you
I aint missing you
I aint missing you
I aint missing you
Aint missing you
Oh no No matter what my friends might say
I aint missing you

If you Didn't love me - Phil Stacey

2008-04-20T05:54:00.000-07:00

A broken bat in the grass
Takin' one too many fastballs
Tired of swingin'

Spin the wheels, grindin' gears
Goin' nowhere in a downpour
Mud just slingin'

That's what it feels like
Climbin' uphill all the way
Like life's a wild horse
I ain't ever gonna break

If you didn't love
If you didn't love
If you didn't love me
Then I don't know how
I don't know how
I could do this
If you didn't love
If you didn't love
If you didn't love me
Then I don't know how
I'd get through this
If you didn't love me
If you didn't love me

A mountain top, another shot
I'm born again
And put some fight back in me
Sunrise, oh yeah

That's what it feels like
Wakin' up in your arms, girl
Without your sweet smile
This would be a tougher world

If you didn't love
If you didn't love
If you didn't love me
Then I don't know how
I don't know how
I could do this
If you didn't love
If you didn't love
If you didn't love me
I don't know how
I'd get through this
If you didn't love me

Sometimes it feels like
I'm runnin' straight into the wind
You whisper three words
And it's at my back again
Yeah, it's at my back again

If you didn't love
If you didn't love
If you didn't love me
Well I don't know how
I don't know how
I could do this
If you didn't love
If you didn't love
If you didn't love me
I don't know how
I'd get through this
If you didn't love me
If you didn't love me

i can't unlove you - Kenny Rogers

2008-04-15T20:45:00.000-07:00

This has to be the absolute best heartbreak song ever written -- real, honest, not too sappy. :)

Postcards and letters
Pictures made to last forever
To Be boxed up
and tossed away
Nick-Nacs and Souvenirs
In an afternoon
They're out of here
They'll disappear without a trace
What they mean to me can never be replaced

I can't unthink about you
I can't unfeel your touch
I can't unhear all the words
Unsay all the things that used to mean so much
I wish I could unremember
Everything my hearts been through
Im finding out its impossible to do
Oh, its no use
I cant unlove you

Interstates and old songs
Like time they go on and on
I guess I could learn to do the same
I could wake up without you
These two arms not around you
Tell myself it's meant to be this way
No matter how I try
Some things I can't change.

I can't unthink about you
I can't unfeel your touch
I can't unhear all the words
Unsay all the things that used to mean so much
I wish I could unremember
Everything my hearts been through
Im finding out its impossible to do
Oh, its no use
I cant unlove you

I wish I could unremember
Everything my hearts been through
Im finding out its impossible to do
Its no use
I cant unlove you

bright smile - Josh Ritter

2008-04-10T16:15:00.000-07:00

Now my work is done
I feel I'm owed some joy
Oh Imogene and Abelard
I'm your homeward boy

But there's another one
That brings me to your door
And the boat you weaved from the tidal reeds
Was always tied to shore

With bright smiles and dark eyes
Bright smile dark eyes
Everywhere I went oh
I was always searching for your
Bright smile dark eyes

I'm looking for some peace
But it's so hard to find
With Calamity Janes and the Steamboat Casanovas
And Darling Clementines

If she's your only one
Then she is also mine
Just pin your heartbeat up against my heartbeat
And you'll see how well we rhyme

With bright smiles and dark eyes
Bright smile dark eyes
Everywhere I went oh
I was always looking for your
Bright smile dark eyes

Man is only half himself
The other half is a bright thing
He tumbles on by luck or grace
For man is ever a blind thing

Bright smiles and dark eyes
Bright smile dark eyes
Everywhere I went oh
I was always looking for your
Bright smile dark eyes

I would have loved you anyway

2008-04-07T16:04:00.000-07:00

If I'd've known the way that this would end
If I'd've read the last page first
If I'd've had the strength to walk away
If I'd've known how this would hurt...

[Chorus 1:]
I would've loved you anyway
I'd do it all the same
Not a second I would change
Not a touch that I would trade
Had I known my heart would break
I'd've loved you anyway

It's bittersweet to look back now
At mem'ries withered on the vine
But just to hold you close to me
For a moment in time...

[Repeat chorus 1]

[Bridge:]
And even if I'd seen it coming
You'd still've seen me running
Straight into your arms

[Chorus 2:]
I would've loved you anyway
I'd do it all the same
Not a second I would change
Not a touch that I would trade
Had I known my heart would break
I would've loved you anyway
I would've loved you anyway

breaking up is hard to do (the happiest sad song ever)

2008-04-04T05:54:00.000-07:00

(no lyrics needed here --- :) Why does everyone smile when singing this song?)

somwewhere in the world

2008-04-03T15:59:00.000-07:00

Like a stranger's smile
that lasts for a while
For a moment you feel happy inside
In a world that keeps on changing too fast
When the future always has the last laugh

Maybe we've made mistakes
Maybe we're not the only ones
Maybe it's not too late
To start over
All the shapes and patterns
you'll see in your mind
Somewhere in the world
(Someone's thinking of you)
Somewhere in the world
(Someone's thinking of you)

Like a rainbow bursting out of the sky
Close your eyes and see your
dreams running wild
Colors brighter than the sun all around
Everlasting as this new joy you've found

Maybe we've made mistakes
Maybe we're not the only ones
Maybe it's not too late
To start over
All the shapes and patterns
you'll see in your mind
Somewhere in the world
(Someone's thinking of you)

Starting all over again
In a world that keeps on
changing much too fast
Maybe we've made mistakes
Maybe we're not the only ones
Maybe it's not too late
To start over
All the shapes and patterns
you'll see in your mind
Somewhere in the world
(Someone's thinking of you)
Somewhere in the world
(Someone's thinking of you)
Somewhere in the world
(Someone's thinking of you)
Somewhere in the world
(Someone's thinking of you)
Somewhere in the world

-Swing Out Sister

I will always love you

2008-04-02T07:35:00.000-07:00

If I should stay
Well I would only be in your way
And so I'll go, and yet I know
That I'll think of you each step of my way

And I will always love you
I will always love you

Bittersweet memories
That's all I have and all I'm taking with me
Good-bye, oh please don't cry
Cause we both know that I'm not what you need

But I will always love you
I will always love you

And I hope life will treat you kind
And I hope that you have all
That you ever dreamed of
Oh I do wish you joy and I wish you happiness
But above all of this, I wish you love
I love you, I will always love you

I, I will always, always love you
I will always love you
I will always love you
I will always love you

What do I do With My Heart

2008-03-28T15:16:00.000-07:00

You don't have to say a word
I can see it in your eyes
I know what you wanna say
It's so hard to say goodbye

I can hold back my tears
And try to be strong
While our love is fallin' apart
I know what I'll say
If you walk away
But what do I do
What do I do with my heart?

I'm not gonna say a word
I know I can't change your mind
You know where you need to go
I know I'll be left behind

I won't hold you back
I won't stand in your way
If you need to make a new start
But I still wanna know
When my arms let you go
What do I do
What do I do with my heart?

Oh, girl, don't you remember?
It was not so long ago
We were makin' plans for two
Just me and you
Now you tell me that you've found somebody
Someone who loves you better
No one could ever love you
The way I do

Tell me you're not leavin' now
Tell me you're not leavin'
Tell me that you're gonna stay
Please say you'll stay with me, baby
Tell me that you love me still
Say you love me still
For this and this alone I pray
Fall down on my knees and pray

I'll do anything
Yes, I would
To save what we have
To keep you by my side
I'll love you 'til death do us part
But what do I do
What do I do
When I'm still missing you?
What do I do
What do I do with my heart?
