She’s amazing, ever changing
Oh, you’ll feel like your sailing
Oh, you’ll feel your life changing
Oh, she’ll bring back that feeling
Oh, she’ll have you beggin
Please, please, please stay
Just stay

She wakes up and rolls into the kitchen
She turns on her favorite radio
She jumps on the bed kisses me as I’m sleeping
And her smile starts

She’s amazing, ever changing
Oh, you’ll feel like your sailing
Oh, you’ll feel your life changing
Oh, she’ll bring back that feeling
Oh, she’ll have you beggin
Please, please, please stay
Just stay

She’s off to yoga just to clear her head out
Sometimes sees the world from upside down
She forgets about the song she’s singing
As my smile starts

She’s amazing, ever changing
Oh, you’ll feel like your sailing
Oh, you’ll feel your life changing
Oh, she’ll bring back that feeling
Oh, she’ll have you beggin’
Please, please, please stay
Just stay

I’ll brush your hair
Tell you you’re beautiful
When you wake up, stay awake at night
To watch you while you sleep
Be a confidant for secrets that you’re keeping
I’ll pick you up girl; I’ll pick you up girl

Oh, you’ll feel like your sailing
Oh, you’ll feel your life changing
Oh, she’ll bring back that feeling
Oh, she’ll have you beggin’
Please, please, please stay
Just stay

Loneliness in Motion

Posted in Images, Personal Lyrics tagged , at 8:27 pm by LynxLee

Glance at the past, sneak to the future
Moments to last, moments that matter
Here I see you, waiting on me
Could it be? You are waiting for me?

Snow on Sahara
Heat on Antarctica
Dancing the night away
Working the day the same way

Is there more to life than what is happening?
Can there be more to live for than all that’s fading..
away.. like water drying out
Like fire burning out

There’s no place to run to for peace of mind
There’s no haven on earth unless you do the crime
It’s a typical world of intuition and emotion
A feeling of loneliness.. when you’re not there anymore

Though I feel you, though I think you feel it too
Though it’s possible, it’s also probable
That there’s no hope me being there

There’s no.. faded chances
second glances
good answers
anymore

Leave the simple compassion
Love more beauty than fashion
Let there be heated passion

Until there’s light in my tunnel
Until I get strong enough to break through this hell hole

I won’t be able to meet you; my love
and I think..

it’s gonna take some time.. if I’m gonna be
doing this..

alone

Climie Fisher – Love Changes

Posted in Lyrics, Music Video tagged , at 4:02 pm by LynxLee

“It’s never gonna be the same again.”
Love Changes, Changes Everything..

If you listen to this song, you’d probably think it’s a nice love song and sounded optimistic..
but in truth; the guy is sad and telling you about his past. Ain’t good..

Now you probably just noticed it, huh? :-P

I have this strangest feeling
like a raging fire it burns
she left i cried for weeks and
I can’t forget her
or the lesson that I learned

I grew up and moved away
Had to earn my pay
Found another lover then
but my heart is sad to say
it only ended up the same way

I was only seventeen
when she looked at me that way
seems like yesterday

I was only foolin’ round
but she stole my heart away
I never been the same

I have this strangest feeling
like a raging fire it burns
she left i cried for weeks and
I can’t forget her
or the lesson that I learned

* Love changes changes everything
love makes you fly, it can break your wings
love changes changes everything
love makes the rules, from fools to kings
love changes, love changes everything

Then the year went rollin’ by
I grew up and moved away
Had to earn my pay
Found another lover then
but my heart is sad to say
it only ended up the same way

Colbie Caillat – Something Special

Posted in Lyrics, Music Video, Song Comment tagged at 12:15 am by LynxLee

“Somethin’ Special (Beijing Olympic Mix)” is a song by pop singer Colbie Caillat, released on July 29, 2008, for charity. The song now appears on the compilation created to give support to the American athletes participating in the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing, China, AT&T TEAM USA Soundtrack. A promotional music video of the song was released in August 2008.

The song was also featured in the 2009 film Bride Wars, however the version played in the film had different lyrics which suggests that it was the original mix, not the Beijing Olympic Mix, and has not yet been released.

Days go by and I’ll grow stronger
It takes time but I’ll never let go
Days go by and I’ll try harder
To make it mine

I found a way to be everything
I dreamed of
And I know it to me that I will become
Who I want to be
And I finally found it
And I’m takin’ the long way out
Cause its gonna be
Somethin’ special to me
Somethin’ special to me

Days go by and I’ll grow stronger
It takes time but I’ll never let go
Days go by and I’ll try harder
To make it mine

Its somethin’ special to me
Its somethin’ special to me
Its somethin’ special to me

I found so many things
I dreamed of
And I know it to me
That I will become
Who I want to be
And I finally found it
And I’m takin’ the long way out
And its gonna be
Somethin’ special to me
Somethin’ special to me

Days go by and I’ll grow stronger
It takes time but I’ll never let go
Days go by and I’ll try harder
To make it mine

Its somethin’ special to me
More than I hoped for
More than I dreamed of
This is how it should be
More than I hoped for
More than I dreamed of
This is how it should be

Days go by and I’ll grow stronger
It takes time but I’ll never let go
Days go by and I’ll try harder
To make it mine

Its somethin’ special to me
Its somethin’ special to me
Its somethin’ special to me

Days go by and I’ll grow stronger
It takes time but I’ll never let go
Days go by and I’ll try harder
To make it mine

Days go by and I’ll grow stronger
It takes time but I’ll never let go
Days go by and I’ll try harder
To make it mine

Spandau Ballet – I’ll Fly For You

Posted in Lyrics, Music Video, Personal Post tagged at 10:14 pm by LynxLee

I’m waiting here for you.. or should I be flying to you..?

because I’ve nothing else here for you
and just because it’s easier than the truth
oh if there’s nothing else that I can do
I’ll fly for you

Passion take the wind
and break me from this tie
we’re mortals on the earth
oh but God’s in the sky
I haven’t got a clue
I haven’t got a thing
but what I give to you
is all that I could bring
I’ll give you all my time
that’s ev ‘rything to me
you know my only crime
is this flight of fantasy

Chorus:
because I’ve nothing else here for you
and just because it’s easier than the truth
oh if there’s nothing else that I can do
I’ll fly for you

Passion take the wind
and break me from this tie
we’re mortals on the earth
oh but God’s in the sky
I haven’t got a clue
I haven’t got a thing
but what I give to you
is all that I could bring
I’ll give you all my time
that’s ev ‘rything to me
you know my only crime
is this flight of fantasy

because I’ve nothing else here for you
and just because it’s easier than the truth
oh if there’s nothing else that I can do
I’ll fly for you

I’m just an average boy
you’re more than an average girland
when you sing to me the ’sho be doos’
you sing so well
oh don’t you know that when I’m under you
I’m overjoyed

Spandau Ballet – True

Posted in Lyrics, Music Video, Personal Post, Song Comment tagged at 10:02 pm by LynxLee

One of the most care free songs in the world… =P I love this song when sang by a girls’ voice. (this is another advertisement for the album “Absolute Voices” from Rock Corner Malaysia) Sang by Joanna Wang. Yes, THE Joanna Wang from Taiwan. Check her work here.

Sadly I can’t see her videos (due to YouTube limitation.. I hate it when they do that.. “This video is not available in your country due to copyright restrictions. This video is unavailable.” Yeah yeah.. I get it.. you’re all paranoid!

Anyways.. =P enjoy this nice song.

Or rather, buy the album and listen to what I mean.. really.. nice!

Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah
Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah
So true…….
Funny how it seems…..
Always in time, but never in line for dreams.
Head over heels, when toe to toe,
This is the sound of my soul. (This is the sound)

I bought a ticket to the world,
But now I’ve come back again.
Why do I find it hard to write the next line?
When I want the truth to be said…….

Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah
Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah
So true…….
Funny how it seems…..
Always in time, but never in line for dreams.
Head over heels, when toe to toe,
This is the sound of my soul. (This is the sound)

I bought a ticket to the world,
But now I’ve come back again.
Why do I find it hard to write the next line?
When I want the truth to be said…….

Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah
I know this much is true.
Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah
I know this much is true.

With a thrill in my head and a pill on my tongue,
Dissolve the nerves that have just begun.
Listening to Marvin all night long.
This is the sound of my soul. (This is the sound)

Always slipping from my hands,
Sand’s a time of it’s own.
Take your seaside arms and write the next line,
Oh, I want the truth to be known…….

Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah
I know this much is true.
Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah
I know this much is true.

*break*

I bought a ticket to the world,
But now I’ve come back again.
Why do I find it hard to write the next line?
When I want the truth to be said…….

Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah
I know this much is true.
Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah
I know this much is true.

I know this much is……..
I know this much is…….
True.

I know this much is……
I know this much is…….
True.

I know this much is……
I know this much is…….
True.

I know this much is……
I know this much is…….
True.

Mary J. Blige – Roses

Posted in Lyrics, Music Video, Song Comment tagged at 9:00 pm by LynxLee

Unfortunately I couldn’t find any orginal video or audio of this song from Mary J Blige. Anyway, I’ve posted up a rendition from Kaloni Springs from YouTube. It’s all about the lyrics anyway. (It ain’t all roses.. heey..)

See today I’m having one of them days where
I just don’t want to be bothered,
but it seems like you can’t understand that
because it’s your way or no way,
but check this out

I’ve had my ways, and I’ve had my share of ups and downs.
I been in trouble, and I couldn’t tell my ups from downs
welcome to the new definition of love

It ain’t all roses hey,
flowers imposing hey
said it ain’t all candy hey
this love stuff is demanding hey
Sometimes I need a hug [2x]

Sometimes I just wish you would just
put your arms around me
When I’m feeling so [4x] very needy
But instead you just turn your back
and say “suck it up”

oh you don’t know how I feel right now
If you knew how I’m feeling on the inside
you wouldn’t say “suck it up”
Now what tha’ cause

[Talk:]
See today I’m having one of them days where
I just don’t want to be bothered,
but it seems like you can’t understand that because it’s your way or no way,
but check this out
And I’m really, really sick and tired of you steppin’ into my little box
When I just don’t want to be bothered okay, so check this out.

[Verse 1:]
I’ve had my ways, and I’ve had my share of ups and downs.
I been in trouble, and I couldn’t tell my ups from downs
I been your baby, and I don’t know why you don’t seem like that no more
welcome to the new definition of love.

[Chorus:]
It ain’t all roses hey,
flowers imposing hey
said it ain’t all candy hey
this love stuff is demanding hey
Sometimes I need a hug [2x]

[Talk:]
See you just really wanna push all my buttons
Cause you Mr. Right & I’m Mrs. Wrong,
But right now today,
I’m going to be the one to sing this song
I’m going be Mrs. Right today it’s my way, or the highway
With you there’s just no getting around that I got to be bumping heads with you
What’s up with that?
Listen see

[Verse 2:]
I love my man, and I know my place I know my worth
I just can’t stand
to see myself as I hurt
it’s been along time, and I think that I can get a little more love from you
I know some of yall go through it too cause

[Chorus (2x):]

[Talk:]
Sometimes I just wish you would just put your arms around me
When I’m feeling so [4x] very needy
But instead you just turn your back and say “suck it up”
oh you don’t know how I feel right now
If you knew how I’m feeling on the inside you wouldn’t say “suck it up”
Now what tha’ cause

[Chorus (2x)]

[Bridge:]
It’ aint’ all roses you know,
Everybody ask me how good it is?
It’s great love is great
When you just a mess yourself, it ain’t gone be all roses.
Cause you just want your time
You wanna be selfish
You know you don’t want nobody messing with you
You just want to rip somebodies head off when they try to step to you with some “Oh! You need
some help, Oh! You need to figure it out” You figure it out [2x] You go figure It out, you suck
it up [laugh chuckle]

Taylor Swift – White Horse

Posted in Lyrics, Music Video, Personal Post tagged at 8:47 pm by LynxLee

So it’s too late, huh? :’-(

I’m not a princess, this ain’t a fairy tale
I’m not the one you’ll sweep off her feet,
Lead her up the stairwell
This ain’t Hollywood, this is a small town,
I was a dreamer before you went and let me down
Now it’s too late for you
And your white horse, to come around

“I’m gonna find someone someday who might actually treat me well
This is a big world, that was a small town
There in my rearview mirror disappearing now”

Say you’re sorry
That face of an angel
Comes out just when you need it to
As I paced back and forth all this time
Cause I honestly believed in you
Holding on
The days drag on
Stupid girl,
I should have known, I should have known

[Chorus]
I’m not a princess, this ain’t a fairy tale
I’m not the one you’ll sweep off her feet,
Lead her up the stairwell
This ain’t Hollywood, this is a small town,
I was a dreamer before you went and let me down
Now it’s too late for you
And your white horse, to come around

Baby I was naive,
Got lost in your eyes
And never really had a chance
My mistake, I didn’t know to be in love
You had to fight to have the upper hand
I had so many dreams
About you and me
Happy endings
Now I know

[Chorus]
I’m not a princess, this ain’t a fairy tale
I’m not the one you’ll sweep off her feet,
Lead her up the stairwell
This ain’t Hollywood, this is a small town,
I was a dreamer before you went and let me down
Now it’s too late for you
And your white horse, to come around

And there you are on your knees,
Begging for forgiveness, begging for me
Just like I always wanted but I’m so sorry

Cause I’m not your princess, this ain’t a fairytale
I’m gonna find someone someday who might actually treat me well
This is a big world, that was a small town
There in my rearview mirror disappearing now
And its too late for you and your white horse
Now its too late for you and your white horse, to catch me now

Oh, whoa, whoa, whoa
Try and catch me now
Oh, it’s too late
To catch me now

Linkin Park – Somewhere I Belong

Posted in Lyrics, Music Video, Personal Post tagged at 8:25 pm by LynxLee

Today marks another day of pain. At least it’s something expected.

And I’ve got nothing to say
I can’t believe I didn’t fall right down on my face
(I was confused)
Looking everywhere only to find
That it’s not the way I had imagined it all in my mind
(So what am I)
What do I have but negativity
’Cause I can’t justify the way, everyone is looking at me
(Nothing to lose)
Nothing to gain/ hollow and alone
And the fault is my own, and the fault is my own

I wanna heal, I wanna feel what I thought was never real
I wanna let go of the pain I’ve held so long
(Erase all the pain till it’s gone)
I wanna heal, I wanna feel like I’m close to something real
I wanna find something I’ve wanted all along
Somewhere I belong

(When this began)
I had nothing to say
And I get lost in the nothingness inside of me
(I was confused)
And I let it all out to find
That I’m not the only person with these things in mind
(Inside of me)
But all the vacancy the words revealed
Is the only real thing that I’ve got left to feel
(Nothing to lose)
Just stuck/ hollow and alone
And the fault is my own, and the fault is my own

[Chorus]
I wanna heal, I wanna feel what I thought was never real
I wanna let go of the pain I’ve held so long
(Erase all the pain till it’s gone)
I wanna heal, I wanna feel like I’m close to something real
I wanna find something I’ve wanted all along
Somewhere I belong

And I’ve got nothing to say
I can’t believe I didn’t fall right down on my face
(I was confused)
Looking everywhere only to find
That it’s not the way I had imagined it all in my mind
(So what am I)
What do I have but negativity
’Cause I can’t justify the way, everyone is looking at me
(Nothing to lose)
Nothing to gain/ hollow and alone
And the fault is my own, and the fault is my own

[Repeat Chorus]

I will never know myself until I do this on my own
And I will never feel anything else, until my wounds are healed
I will never be anything till I break away from me
I will break away, I’ll find myself today

[Repeat Chorus]

I wanna heal, I wanna feel like I’m somewhere I belong
I wanna heal, I wanna feel like I’m somewhere I belong
Somewhere I belong
