98 Degrees The Hardest Thing Live

98 Degrees - The Hardest Thing lyrics
We both know that I shouldn't be here
This is wrong
And baby it's killing me, it's killing you
Both of us trying to be strong


I've got somewhere else to be
Promises to keep
Someone else who loves me
And trusts me fast asleep


I've made up my mind
There is no turning back
She's been good to me
And she deserves better than that


It's the hardest thing I'll ever have to do
To look you in the eye
And tell you I don't love you
It's the hardest thing I'll ever have to lie
To show no emotion when you start to cry


I can't let you see what you mean to me
When my hands are tied and my heart's not free
We're not meant to be


It's the hardest thing I'll ever had to do
To turn around and walk away
Pretending I don't love you


I know that we'll meet again
Fate has a place and time
So you can get on with your life
I've got to be cruel to be kind


Like Dr. Zhivago
All my love I'll be sending
And you will never know cuz
There can be no happy ending


It's the hardest thing I'll ever have to do
To look you in the eye
And tell you I don't love you
It's the hardest thing I'll ever have to lie
To show no emotion when you start to cry


Maybe another time, another day
As much as I want to, I can't stay

(Ooh)

I've made up my mind
There is no turning back
She's been good to me
And she deserves better than that


It's the hardest thing I'll ever have to do
To look you in the eye
And tell you I don't love you
It's the hardest thing I'll ever have to lie
To show no emotion when you start to cry


I don't want to live a lie
What can I do

John Lennon ー Mother


John Lennon - Mother lyrics
(clock chiming)
Mother, you had me but I never had you,
I wanted you but you didn't want me,
So I got to tell you,
Goodbye, goodbye.
Farther, you left me but I never left you,
I needed you but you didn't need me,
So I got to tell you,
Goodbye, goodbye.
Children, don't do what I have done,
I couldn't walk and I tried to run,
So I got to tell you,
Goodbye, goodbye.
Mama don't go,
Daddy come home.
Mama don't go,
Daddy come home.
Mama don't go,
Daddy come home.
Mama don't go,
Daddy come home.
Mama don't go,
Daddy come home.
Mama don't go,
Daddy come home.
Mama don't go,
Daddy come home..

PAUL SIMON / MOTHER AND CHILD REUNION




In memory of 

our beloved mother 

who departed to heaven 

on July 27 2010



No I would not give you false hope
On this strange and mournful day
But the mother and child reu-nion
Is only a motion away, oh, little darling of mine.
I cant for the life of me
Remember a sadder day
I know they say let it be
But it just dont work out that way
And the course of a lifetime runs
Over and over again

No I would not give you false hope
On this strange and mournful day
But the mother and child reu-nion
Is only a motion away, oh, little darling of mine.

I just cant believe its so,
And though it seems strange to say
I never been laid so low
In such a mysterious way
And the course of a lifetime runs
Over and over again

But I would not give you false hope
On this strange and mournful day
When the mother and child reu-nion
Is only a motion away,
Oh, oh the mother and child reunion
Is only a motion away
Oh the mother and child reu-nion
Is only a moment away

Grace Potter and Joe Satriani cover Cortez the Killer



He came dancing across the water
With his galleons and guns
Looking for the new world
In that palace in the sun.

On the shore lay Montezuma
With his coca leaves and pearls
In his halls he often wondered
With the secrets of the worlds.

And his subjects
gathered 'round him
Like the leaves around a tree
In their clothes of many colors
For the angry gods to see.

And the women all were beautiful
And the men stood
straight and strong
They offered life in sacrifice
So that others could go on.

Hate was just a legend
And war was never known
The people worked together
And they lifted many stones.

They carried them
to the flatlands
And they died along the way
But they built up
with their bare hands
What we still can't do today.

And I know she's living there
And she loves me to this day
I still can't remember when
Or how I lost my way.

He came dancing across the water
Cortez, Cortez
What a killer.

GALLERY - "I Believe In Music" (1972)



I could just sit around, making music all day long. 
As long as I'm making my music ain't gonna do nobody no harm. 
And who knows, maybe I'll come up with a song 
To make people want to stop all this fussing and fighting 
Long enough to sing along. 

CHORUS: 
I believe in music 
I believe in love 
I believe in music 
I believe in love. 

Music is love and love is music if you know what I mean 
People who believe in music are the happiest people I've ever seen 
So clap your hands and stomp your feet and shake those tambourines 
Lift your voices to the sky; tell me what you see. 

(CHORUS) 

Music is the universal language, and love is the key 
To peace hope and understanding, and living in harmony 
So take your brother by the hand and come along with me 
Lift your voices to the sky, tell me what you see. 

(CHORUS) 

Tom Jones - She's a Lady




Well she's all you'd ever want,
She's the kind they'd like to flaunt and take to dinner.
Well she always knows her place.
She's got style, she's got grace, She's a winner.
She's a Lady. Whoa whoa whoa, She's a Lady.
Talkin' about that little lady, and the lady is mine.
Well she's never in the way
Always something nice to say, Oh what a blessing.
I can leave her on her own
Knowing she's okay alone, and there's no messing.
She's a lady. Whoa, whoa, whoa. She's a lady.
Talkin' about that little lady, and the lady is mine.
Well she never asks for very much and I don't refuse her.
Always treat her with respect, I never would abuse her.
What she's got is hard to find, and I don't want to lose her
Help me build a mountain from my little pile of clay. Hey, hey, hey.
Well she knows what I'm about,
She can take what I dish out, and that's not easy,
Well she knows me through and through,
She knows just what to do, and how to please me.
She's a lady. Whoa, whoa, whoa. She's a lady.
Talkin' about that little lady and the lady is mine.
Yeah yeah yeah She's a Lady
Listen to me baby, She's a Lady
Whoa whoa whoa, She's a Lady
And the Lady is mine
Yeah yeah yeah She's a Lady
Talkin about this little lady
Whoa whoa whoa whoa
Whoa and the lady is mine
Yeah yeah She's a Lady
And the Lady is mine.

Cliff Richard- Evergreen Tree



Oh darling, 
will our love be like an evergreen tree 
Stay ever green and young as the seasons go
Your kisses could make love grow like an evergreen tree 
Bloom in the summer's sun and the winter's snow

On every branch will blossom, 
dreams for me and you 
Our tree of love will stay ever green, 
if our hearts stay ever true


Oh darling, I love you so, 
don't you know that I'll be 
True 'til the leaves turn blue on the evergreen tree

On every branch will blossom, 
dreams for me and you 
Our tree of love will stay ever green, if our
hearts stay ever true 
Oh darling, I love you so,
don't you know that I'll be 
True 'til the leaves turn blue 
on the evergreen tree

On the evergreen tree, 
on the evergreen tree.

Michael Buble - Feeling Good

Michael Bublé - Feeling Good
lyrics

Birds flying high
You know how I feel
Sun in the sky
You know how I feel
Breeze driftin' on by
You know how I feel
It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life
For me
And I'm feeling good

Fish in the sea
You know how I feel
River running free
You know how I feel
Blossom on a tree
You know how I feel
It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life
For me
And I'm feeling good

Dragonfly out in the sun you know what I mean, don't you know
Butterflies all havin' fun you know what I mean
Sleep in peace when day is done
That's what I mean
And this old world is a new world
And a bold world
For me

For me

Stars when you shine
You know how I feel
Scent of the pine
You know how I feel
Oh freedom is mine
And I know how I feel
It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life

It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life

It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life
It's a new life
For me

For me

I'm feeling good
I feel so good
I feel so good

Simon And Garfunkel - The Boxer




Simon And Garfunkel

The Boxer Lyrics

I am just a poor boy
Though my story's seldom told
I have squandered my resistance
For a pocket full of mumbles such are promises
All lies and jests
Still a man hears what he wants to hear
And disregards the rest

When I left my home and my family
I was no more than a boy
In the company of strangers
In the quiet of the railway station running scared
Laying low, seeking out the poorer quarters
Where the ragged people go
Looking for the places only they would know

Lie la lie ...

Asking only workman's wages
I come looking for a job
But I get no offers,
Just a come-on from the whores on Seventh Avenue
I do declare, there were times when I was so lonesome
I took some comfort there

Lie la lie ...

Then I'm laying out my winter clothes
And wishing I was gone
Going home
Where the New York City winters aren't bleeding me
Bleeding me, going home

In the clearing stands a boxer
And a fighter by his trade
And he carries the reminders
Of ev'ry glove that layed him down
Or cut him till he cried out
In his anger and his shame
"I am leaving, I am leaving"
But the fighter still remains

Lie la lie ...

Albano e Romina Power- Io di notte


Italian

English translation


Io di notte sono qui


e ripenso ancora a te.


E mi sembra che così 


tu sia vicino a me.





Io di notte sono qui 


senza chiedermi il perché.


Sto pensando alla mia vita 


così legata a te.





Sono un uomo come quelli 


che non san dimenticare 


e perciò spero ancora che


tu ritornerai da me. 





Io di notte sono

qui
e ripenso ancora a te.


E mi sembra che così 


tu sia vicino a me,


vicino a me, 


vicino a me.


I'm here tonight

n again I'm thinking about you

It feels as if

you're here by my side.


I'm here tonight

without asking why.

I'm thinking about my life

so tied to you.


I am a man such as those

who are unable to forget

I still hope that

you will come back to me.


I'm here tonight

n again I'm thinking about you

It feels as if

you're here by my side.

by my side,

by my side.

John Mayer - Waiting On The World To Change - Rove Live


JOHN MAYER LYRICS
"Waiting On The World To Change"

Me and all my friends
We're all misunderstood
They say we stand for nothing and
There's no way we ever could

Now we see everything that's going wrong
With the world and those who lead it
We just feel like we don't have the means
To rise above and beat it

So we keep waiting
Waiting on the world to change
We keep on waiting
Waiting on the world to change

It's hard to beat the system
When we're standing at a distance
So we keep waiting
Waiting on the world to change

Now if we had the power
To bring our neighbors home from war
They would have never missed a Christmas
No more ribbons on their door
And when you trust your television
What you get is what you got
Cause when they own the information, oh
They can bend it all they want

That's why we're waiting
Waiting on the world to change
We keep on waiting
Waiting on the world to change

It's not that we don't care,
We just know that the fight ain't fair
So we keep on waiting
Waiting on the world to change

And we're still waiting
Waiting on the world to change
We keep on waiting waiting on the world to change
One day our generation
Is gonna rule the population
So we keep on waiting
Waiting on the world to change

We keep on waiting
Waiting on the world to change

Eric Clapton performs "Crossroads" Live!


Crossroads Lyrics
Artist(Band):Eric Clapton

I went down to the crossroads,
Fell down on my knees.
I went down to the crossroads,
Fell down on my knees.
Asked the Lord above for mercy,
"Save me if you please."

I went down to the crossroads,
Tried to flag a ride.
I went down to the crossroads,
Tried to flag a ride.
Nobody seemed to know me,
Everybody passed me by.

I'm going down to Rosedale,
Take my rider by my side.
I'm going down to Rosedale,
Take my rider by my side.
You can still barrelhouse, baby,
On the riverside.

You can run, you can run,
Tell my friend-boy Willie Brown.
You can run, you can run,
Tell my friend-boy Willie Brown.
And I'm standing at the crossroads,
Believe I'm sinking down.

wild night (van morrison)



Wild Night Lyrics
Artist(Band):Van Morrison



As you brush your shoes
Stand before the mirror
And you comb your hair
Grab your coat and hat
And you walk, wet streets
Tryin' to remember
All the wild night breezes
In your mem'ry ever

And ev'rything looks so complete
When you're walkin' out on the street
And the wind catches your feet
Sends you flyin', cryin'

Ooo-woo-wee!
Wild night is calling, alright
Oooo-ooo-wee!
Wild night is calling

And all the girls walk by
Dressed up for each other
And the boys do the boogie-woogie
On the corner of the street

And the people, passin' by
Stare in wild wonder
And the inside juke-box
Roars out just like thunder

And ev'rything looks so complete
When you walk out on the street
And the wind catches your feet
And sends you flyin', cryin'

Woo-woo-wee!
Wild night is calling
Alright

Ooo-ooo-wee!
Wild night is calling, alright

The wild night is calling
The wild night is calling

Come on out and dance
Whoa, come on out and make romance
Yes, indeed

Come on out and dance
Come on out, make romance

(Instrumental & horn solo)

The wild night is calling, alright
The wild night is calling

Come on out an dance
Yeah, come on out 'n make romance

Come on out and dance, alright
