If You're Not The One
Daniel Bedingfield


If you're not the one then why does my soul feel glad today?
If you're not the one then why does my hand fit yours this way?
If you are not mine then why does your heart return my call
If you are not mine would I have the strength to stand at all

I never know what the future brings
But I know you are here with me now
We'll make it through
And I hope you are the one I share my life with

I don't want to run away but I can't take it, I don't understand
If I'm not made for you then why does my heart tell me that I am?
Is there any way that I can stay in your arms?

If I don't need you then why am I crying on my bed?
If I don't need you then why does your name resound in my head?
If you're not for me then why does this distance maim my life?
If you're not for me then why do I dream of you as my wife?

I don't know why you're so far away
But I know that this much is true
We'll make it through
And I hope you are the one I share my life with
And I wish that you could be the one I die with
And Im praying you're the one I build my home with
I hope I love you all my life

I don't want to run away but I can't take it, I don't understand
If I'm not made for you then why does my heart tell me that I am
Is there any way that I can stay in your arms?

'Cause I miss you, body and soul so strong that it takes my breath away
And I breathe you into my heart and pray for the strength to stand today
'Cause I love you, whether it's wrong or right
And though I can't be with you tonight
And know my heart is by your side

I don’t wanna to run away but I can’t take it, I don’t understand
If I’m not made for you then why does my heart tell me that I am
Is there any way that I can stay in your arms?

When the Levee Breaks
Led Zeppelin

If it keeps on raining, levee's going to break
If it keeps on raining, levee's going to break
When the levee breaks, I'll have no place to stay

Mean old levee taught me to weep and moan
Mean old levee taught me to weep and moan
It's got what it takes to make a mountain man leave his home

Don't it make you feel bad when you're trying to find your way home
You don't know which way to go?
If you're going down south, they got no work to do
If you don't know about Chicago

Crying won't help you, praying won't do you no good
Crying won't help you, praying won't do you no good
When the levee breaks, mama, you got to move

All last night, sat on the levee and moaned
All last night, sat on the levee and moaned
Thinking 'bout my baby and my happy home

Going, going to Chicago, going to Chicago
Sorry, but I can't take you...
Going down... going down now... going down....

Bridge Over Troubled Water

When you're weary, feeling small
When tears are in your eyes,
I will dry them all
I'm on your side
When times get rough
And friends just can't be found

Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down

When you're down and out
When you're on the street
When evening falls so hard
I will comfort you
I'll take your part
When darkness comes
And pain is all around

Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down

Sail on silver girl
Sail on by
Your time has come to shine
All your dreams are on their way
See how they shine
When you need a friend
I'm sailing right behind

Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind

Gotta Leave This Town
Walter Trout


You 've gotta leave this town
Lonelyis only got you down
Leave this town!
You know that it`s only got you down

Take a look around
You` re dying in this town
When you` re out on the street
You cross your dreams beneath your feet

Walking on the street!
Now you cross your dreams beneath your feet

Murder all about, there must be must be some way out
Lord there must be so way out

On a dirty street
You ask the people that you meet

On a dirty street
You ask everybody that you meet

(You've ) got to understand you`re dying in this town

The great Son House:

Death Letter

I got a letter this mornin, how do you reckon it read?
It said, "Hurry, hurry, yeah, your love is dead"
I got a letter this mornin, I say how do you reckon it read?
You know, it said, "Hurry, hurry, how come the gal you love is dead?"
So, I grabbed up my suitcase, and took off down the road
When I got there she was layin on a coolin' board
I grabbed up my suitcase, and I said and I took off down the road
I said, but when I got there she was already layin on a coolin' board
Well, I walked up right close, looked down in her face
Said, the good ol' gal got to lay here 'til the Judgment Day
I walked up right close, and I said I looked down in her face
I said the good ol' gal, she got to lay here 'til the Judgment Day
Looked like there was 10,000 people standin' round the buryin' ground
I didn't know I loved her 'til they laid her down
Looked like 10,000 were standin' round the buryin' ground
You know I didn't know I loved her 'til they damn laid her down
Lord, have mercy on my wicked soul
I wouldn't mistreat you baby, for my weight in gold
I said, Lord, have mercy on my wicked soul
You know I wouldn't mistreat nobody, baby, not for my weight in gold
Well, I folded up my arms and I slowly walked away
I said, "Farewell honey, I'll see you on Judgment Day"
Ah, yeah, oh, yes, I slowly walked away
I said, "Farewell, farewell, I'll see you on the Judgment Day"
You know I went in my room, I bowed down to pray
The blues came along and drove my spirit away
I went in my room, I said I bowed down to pray
I said the blues came along and drove my spirit away
You know I didn't feel so bad, 'til the good ol' sun went down
I didn't have a soul to throw my arms around
I didn't feel so bad, 'til the good ol' sun went down
You know, I didn't have nobody to throw my arms around
I loved you baby, like I love myself
You don't have me, you won't have nobody else
I loved you baby, better than I did myself
I said now if you don't have me, I didn't want you to have nobody else
You know, it's hard to love someone that don't love you
Ain't no satisfaction, don't care what in the world you do
Yeah, it's hard to love someone that don't love you
You know it don't look like satisfaction, don't care what in the world you do
Got up this mornin', just about the break of day
A-huggin' the pillow where she used to lay
Got up this mornin', just about the break of day
A-huggin' the pillow where my good gal used to lay
Got up this mornin', feelin' round for my shoes
You know, I must-a had them old walkin' blues
Got up this mornin', feelin' round for my shoes
Yeah, you know bout that, I must-a had them old walkin' blues
You know, I cried last night and all the night before
Gotta change my way a livin', so I don't have to cry no more
You know, I cried last night and all the night before
Gotta change my way a livin', you see, so I don't have to cry no more
Ah, hush, thought I heard her call my name
If it wasn't so loud and so nice and plain
Ah, yeah
Mmmmmm
Well, listen, whatever you do
This is one thing, honey, I tried to get along with you
Yes, no tellin' what you do
I done everything I could, just to try and get along with you
Well, the minutes seemed like hours, hours they seemed like days
It seemed like my good, old gal outta done stopped her low-down ways
Minutes seemed like hours, hours they seemed like days
Seems like my good, old gal outta done stopped her low-down ways
You know, love's a hard ol' fall, make you do things you don't wanna do
Love sometimes leaves you feeling sad and blue
You know, love's a hard ol' fall, make you do things you don't wanna do
Love sometimes make you feel sad and blue

JAMES BLUNT

"No Bravery"

There are children standing here,
Arms outstretched into the sky,
Tears drying on their face.
He has been here.
Brothers lie in shallow graves.
Fathers lost without a trace.
A nation blind to their disgrace,
Since he's been here.

And I see no bravery,
No bravery in your eyes anymore.
Only sadness.

Houses burnt beyond repair.
The smell of death is in the air.
A woman weeping in despair says,
He has been here.
Tracer lighting up the sky.
It's another families' turn to die.
A child afraid to even cry out says,
He has been here.

And I see no bravery,
No bravery in your eyes anymore.
Only sadness.

There are children standing here,
Arms outstretched into the sky,
But no one asks the question why,
He has been here.
Old men kneel to accept their fate.
Wives and daughters cut and raped.
A generation drenched in hate.
Yes, he has been here.

And I see no bravery,
No bravery in your eyes anymore.
Only sadness.

EDIT: He wrote this song when he was serving his tour of duty in Serbia I believe.

Sandy Denny:

She Moves Through The Fair

words: Padraic Colum

My young love said to me, “My mother won't mind,
And my father won't slight you for your lack of kind.”
And she laid her hand on me and this she did say,
“Oh, it will not be long, love, till our wedding-day.”

And she went away from me and moved through the fair,
And fondly I watched her move here and move there.
And then she went onward, just one star awake
Like the swan in the evening moves over the lake.

Last night she came to me, my dead love came in,
So softly she came that her feet made no din.
And she laid her hand on me and this she did say,
“Oh, it will not be long, love, till our wedding-day.”

The New Pornographers: Sing Me Spanish Techno

quote:

Don't you know
after picking the glass off the ground
Don't you know
after shaking the thing for a sound

Do we see what the clock makes you do
But I won't let this happen to you

In a town
where I lost every shirt on the fence
Don't you know
I am bleeding a trail through the lens

When I see what I now know is you
I was caught in the eye as you came
Pulled by my name
I'm fallin' through

Traveling at godspeed
over the hills and trails
I have refused my call
pushin' my lazy sails
Into the blue flame
I want to crash here right now
The hourglass spills its sand
if only to punish you

for listenin' too long
to one song
listenin' too long
to one song

Sing me Spanish techno

listenin' too long
to one song
listenin' too long
to one song

Sing me Spanish techno

Don't you know
after wiring the thing to explode
Wired for sound
wide awake here for days in a row

Now we see what the engine can do
And I won't let this happen to you
I won't let this happen to you

Love Happens Like That
Neal McCoy


We went from zero to love in nothing flat
And you smiled at me and before I knew
I was head over heels for you
(Love happens like that)
It steals your heart like a thief in the night
(Love happens like that)
You can run but you can't hide
(Love happens like that)
Before you know it there ain't no turning back
Love happens like that

Call it destiny, call it love at first sight
Call it meant to be I'd say you're right
I never dreamed that just one kiss
Could make me feel like this
(Love happens like that)

It steals your heart like a thief in the night
(Love happens like that)
And you can run but you can't hide
(Love happens like that)
Before you know it there ain't no turning back
Love happens like that
In a heartbeat it can turn your world around, just like that
(Love happens like that)
It steals your heart like a thief in the night
(Love happens like that)
You can run but you can't hide
(Love happens like that)

Before you know it there ain't no turning back
Just like that, love happens like that
(love happens, love happens, love happens just like that)
It steals your heart like a thief in the night
(love happens, love happens, love happens just like that)
You can run but you can't hide
(love happens, love happens, love happens just like that)
Love happens just like that
(love happens, love happens, love happens just like that)
(love happens, love happens, love happens just like that)

Nanci Griffith:

Banks of the Pontchartrain



I'm goin' back where my garden blooms all year
Where the wintertime speaks softly in the fallin' rain
I'm goin' back to my green eyed lover there
And we will dance along the banks of old Lake Pontchartrain

Oh, I've grown pale beneath the streets of Montreal
Where the voices ring like bells in French-Canadian
And the rivers stand imprisoned till the thaws
I am alone at night and dream of my own Pontchartrain

[Chorus:]

Take me to the station... I am late to catch my southbound train
Oh, I'm gonna call my cousin Libby
She will be waiting by the tracks when I roll in
I'm gonna roll across America
Just to stand beside my Pontchartrain again

These old rails shake like thunder through the night
Soon I'll have my green eyed lover's arms to comfort me
Oh, I can see my cousin Libby by his side
Her hair will flow in waves like on Lake Pontchartrain

[Chorus]

I'm goin' back where my garden blooms all year
Where the wintertime speaks softly in the fallin' rain
I'm goin' back to my green eyed lover there
And we will dance along the banks of old Lake Pontchartrain
Yes, we will dance along the banks of old Lake Pontchartrain
We will dance along the banks of old Lake Pontchartrain
And here comes the train

Dust in the Wind
Kansas

I close my eyes
Only for a moment, and the moment's gone
All my dreams
Pass before my eyes, a curiosity

Dust in the wind
All they are is dust in the wind

Same old song
Just a drop of water in an endless sea
All we do
Crumbles to the ground though we refuse to see

Dust in the wind
All we are is dust in the wind

Now don't hang on
Nothing lasts forever but the earth and sky
It slips away
And all your money won't another minute buy

Dust in the wind

All I'll Ever Ask

Love means so many different things,
but you're all that matters,
and this is all I'll ever ask of you.

Tell me your dreams, so they could be mine too,
let me be there, to help them come true.
Tell me your fears, when you fell afraid,
come to my arms, let me rock them away.

That's all I'll ever ask.
That's all I'll ever ask.
That's all I'll ever ask.
Of you...

Come to my shoulder, when you need to weep,
wake me up, when you cannot sleep.
Talk to me, when you want to be heard,
be silent with me, when you can't say a word.

That's all I'll ever ask.
That's all I'll ever ask.
That's all I'll ever ask.
Of you...

I can't swear that you never, have to cry another tear.
But whenever you want, someone to hold you, Iim always right here.

So just, come to me, for anything at all,
call my name, itis yours to call.
Fell my faith in you, when you can't find your own,
and always remember, you're never alone.

That's all I'll ever ask.
That's all I'll ever ask.
That's all I'll ever ask.
Of you...

I can't swear that you never, have to cry another tear.
But whenever you want, someone to hold you, remember, I'm always right here.

That's all I'll ever ask.
That's all I'll ever ask.
That's all I'll ever ask.
Of you...

Death Cab for Cutie: The Sound of Settling

quote:

I've got a hunger
Twisting my stomach into knots
That my tongue was tied off

My brain's repeating
"if you've got an impulse let it out"
But they never make it past my mouth.

Baa bah, this is the sound of settling
Baa bah, baa bah

Our youth is fleeting
Old age is just around the bend
And i can't wait to go grey

And i'll sit and wonder
Of every love that could've been
If i'd only thought of something charming to say.

Baa bah, this is the sound of settling
Baa bah, baa bah

I've got a hunger twisting my stomach into knots.

You're in control - is there anywhere you wanna go?
You're in control - is there anything you wanna know?
The future's for discovering
The space in which we're traveling

From the top of the first page
To the end of the last page
From the start in your own way
You just want somebody listening to what you say
It doesn't matter who you are...

Under the surface trying to break through
Deciphering the codes in you
I need a compass, draw me a map
I'm on the top, I can't get back

First line on the first page
To the end of the last page, you were looking
From the start in your own way
You just want somebody listening to what you say
It doesn't matter who you are...
It doesn't matter who you are

You just want somebody listening to what you say
You just want somebody listening to what you say
It doesn't matter who you are
It doesn't matter who you are

Is there anybody out there
Who is lost and hurt and lonely too
Are they bleeding all your colors into one?
And if you come undone
As if you've been run through
Some catapult it fired you
You wonder if your chance will ever come
Or if you're stuck in square one...

If I Ain't Got You


Some people live for the fortune
Some people live just for the fame
Some people live for the power, yeah
Some people live just to play the game
Some people think that the physical things
Define what’s within
And I’ve been there before
But that life’s a bore
So full of the superficial


Some people want it all
But I don’t want nothing at all
If it ain’t you baby
If I ain’t got you baby
Some people want diamond rings
Some just want everything
But everything means nothing
If I ain’t got you, yeah

Some people search for a fountain
That promises forever young
Some people need three dozen roses
And that’s the only way to prove you love him
Hand me the world on a silver platter
And what good would it be
With no one to share
with no one who truly cares for me


Some people want it all
But I don’t want nothing at all
If it ain’t you baby
If I ain’t got you baby
Some people want diamond rings
Some just want everything
But everything means nothing
If I ain’t got you, you, you
Some people want it all
But I don’t want nothing at all
If it ain’t you baby
If I ain’t got you baby
Some people want diamond rings
Some just want everything
But everything means nothing
If I ain’t got you, yeah


If I ain’t got you with me baby
So nothing in this whole wide world don’t mean a thing
If I ain’t got you with me baby

Forgive me, I'm on a massive X&Y kick at the moment...

You see the world in black and white
No color or light
You think you'll never get it right
But you're wrong, you might
The sky could fall, could fall on me
The parting of the sea
But you mean more, mean more to me
Than any color I can see

All you ever wanted was love
But you never looked hard enough
It's never gonna give itself up
All you ever wanted to be
Living in perfect symmetry
Nothing is as down or as up as us

You see the world in black and white
Not painted right
You see no meaning to your life
You should try...
You should try...

All you ever wanted was love
But you never looked hard enough
It's never gonna give itself up
All you ever wanted to be
Living in perfect symmetry
Nothing is as down or as up

Don't you want to see it come soon
Floating in a big white balloon
Come give her your own silver spoon
Don't you want to see it come down
There for throwing your arms around
And say "You're not a moment too soon..."

'Cause I feel loved
'Cause I feel loved
Oh, yeah, I feel loved
Oh, no... oh...

'Cause I feel loved
'Cause I feel loved
Oh, yeah, I feel loved
Oh, no... oh...

Old Forgotten Soldier


Reaching for a butterfly
Old soldiers never die
and the gun against their shoulder
Well, it gets a little older
And just like that old shoulder
it just gets put away

Well, I'm an old, forgotten soldier,
since they put an end to war.
And i like to tell my story,
But you don't wanna hear about the war.

I'm an old, forgotten campain hero,
left without a cause,
because, they took away my wars.

I'm an old, forgotten railroad,
a broken, lonely ammo-train.
And my rusty ammunition
has been left out in the rain

I'm an old, forgotten part-time doughboy
I tried to save the world
The world was round,
we fired around,
heard all around the world

I'm an old, forgotten campaign hero
Left without a cause,
because, they took away my wars.

I'm an old, forgotten railroad
A deserted ammo-train
And my rusty ammunition
has been left out in the rain.

The Moonbeam Song

Have you ever watched a moonbeam
As it slid across your windowpane
Or struggled with a bit of rain
Or dance about the weathervane
Or settle on a moving train
And wonder where the train has been

Or on a fence with bits of crap
Around its bottom
Blown there by a windbeam
Who searches for a moonbeam
Who was last seen
Looking at the tracks
Of the careless windbeam
Or moving to the tracks
Of the tireless freight train
And lighting up the sides
Of the weathervane
And the bits of rain
And the windowpane
And the eyes of those
Who think they saw what happened

Have you ever watched a moonbeam
As it slid across your windowpane
Or struggled with a bit of rain
Or dance about the weathervane
Or settle on a moving train
And wonder where the train has been

Ah-ah-aah-ah
Ah-ah-aah-ah
Ah-ah-aah-ah
Looking at the tracks
Of the careless windbeam
And moving to the tracks
Of the tireless freight train
And lighting up the sides
Of the weathervane
And the bits of rain
And the windowpane
And the eyes of those
Who think they saw what happened

**************************************

Without You

No, I can't forget this evening
Or your face as you were leaving
But I guess that's just the way the story goes
You always smile but in your eyes your sorrow shows
Yes, it shows

No, I can't forget tomorrorow
When I think of all my sorrows
When I had you there but then I let you go
And now it's only fair that I should let you know
What you should know

I can't live if living is without you
I can't live, I can't give any more
Can't live if living is without you
I can't give, I can't give any more

No, I can't forget this evening
Or your face as you were leaving
But I guess that's just the way the story goes
You always smile but in your eyes your sorrow shows
Yes, it shows

Can't live if living is without you
I can't live, I can't give anymore
I can't live if living is without you
Can't live, I can't give anymore
(Living is without you)
