This is a collection of songs that Anne and I exchange with each other. It doesn't necessarily mean it's how we feel, sometimes it's just a song that perks us up. We've been exchanging song lyrics the past few months through email, and since I've become addicted to blogging I thought of just posting it online.

I Know I Need to be In love
by Carpenters
album: Love Songs (1998), Gold Collection (2005)
The hardest thing I've ever done is keep believing
There's someone in this crazy world for me.
The way that people come and go through temporary lives,
My chance could come and I might never know.
I used to say, "No promises, let's keep it simple",
But freedom only helps you say goodbye.
It took awhile for me to learn that nothing comes for free.
The price I've paid is high enough for me.
CHORUS
I know I need to be in love,
I know I've wasted too much time.
I know I ask perfection of a quite imperfect world,
And fool enough to think that's what I'll find.
So here I am with pockets full of good intentions,
But none of them will comfort me tonight.
I'm wide awake at 4 AM without a friend in sight.
Hanging on a hoop, but I'm alright.
CHORUS

Way Back into Love
[Cora]
I've been living with a shadow overhead
I've been sleeping with a cloud above my bed
I've been lonely for so long
Trapped in the past, I just can't seem to move on
[Alex]
I've been hiding all my hopes and dreams away
Just in case I ever need them again someday
I've been setting aside time
To clear a little space in the corners of my mind
[Cora & Alex]
All I wanna do is find a way back into love
I can't make it through without a way back into love
Oh oh oh
[Cora]
I've been watching but the stars refuse to shine
I've been searching but I just don't see the signs
I know that it's out there
There's gotta be something for my soul somewhere
I've been looking for someone to shed some light
Not somebody just to get me through the night
I could use some direction
And I'm open to your suggestions
[Cora & Alex]
All I wanna do is find a way back into love
I can't make it through without a way back into love
And if I open my heart again
I guess I'm hoping you'll be there for me in the end
[Cora]
There are moments when I don't know if it's real
Or if anybody feels the way I feel
I need inspiration
Not just another negotiation
[Cora & Alex]
All I wanna do is find a way back into love
I can't make it through without a way back into love
And if I open my heart to you
I'm hoping you'll show me what to do
And if you help me to start again
You know that I'll be there for you in the end

Upside Down
Sung by: Fra Lippo Lippo
Revived by: 6Cyclemind
Ive been spending sometime
Thinking of you and I
Dont know if i could really make it tonight
I wait in the dark come down in a star
Thinking about you is almost breaking my heart
I dont know where i went wrong
Or whats going on
Baby, i feel like a lover tonight
Should i stay, should i go
What i really dont know
Lately i've been missing you so
Baby, you dont understand
Our love lies last girl
Yes still hold in my hand
Oh and then you walk away
Just tonight i wanted to stay
*You turn any hour
You turn me around
You turn my whole world upside down
You Turn any hour
You turn me around
You turn my whole world upside down
Everytime i hurt you
Well its hurting me too
Dont know if i could really stay here tonight
Tired of thinking of you
Never think of you, do
Tell me what am i supposed to do
Well i just wanted to say
That i need you today
Tell me some gonna work at all right
Dont know where i should start
Oh With all of my heart
Baby your love, baby your lover tonight
Baby, you dont understand
Our love lies last girl
Yes still hold in my hand
Oh and then you walk away
Just tonight i wanted to stay
Repeat *
You know, you turn me upside down (x2)
Repeat * until fade

When You Say Nothing at All
Sung by: Ronan Keating
It's amazing
How you can speak
Right to my heart
Without saying a word,
You can light up the dark
Try as I may
I could never explain
What I hear when
You don't say a thing
[CHORUS:]
The smile on your face
Lets me know
That you need me
There's a truth
In your eyes
Saying you'll never leave me
The touch of your hand says
You'll catch me
Whenever I fall
You say it best
When you say
Nothing at all
All day long
I can hear people
Talking out loud
But when you hold me near
You drown out the crowd
(The crowd)
Try as they may
They can never define
What's been said
Between your
Heart and mine
[Repeat chorus twice]
(You say it best
When you say
Nothing at all
You say it best
When you say
Nothing at all)
The smile on your face
The truth in your eyes
The touch of your hand
Let's me know
That you need me
[Repeat chorus]
(You say it best
When you say
Nothing at all
You say it best
When you say
Nothing at all)
The smile on your face
The truth in your eyes
The touch of your hand
Let's me know
That you need me
(You say it best
When you say
Nothing at all
You say it best
When you say
Nothing at all)
It's amazing
How you can speak
Right to my heart
Without saying a word,
You can light up the dark

Big Girls Don't Cry
Sung by: Fergie
Da Da Da Da
The smell of your skin lingers on me now
Your probably on your flight back to your home town
I need some shelter of my own protection baby
To be with myself and center, clarity
Peace, Serenity
[CHORUS]
I hope you know, I hope you know
That this has nothing to do with you
It's personal, Myself and I
We've got some straightenin' out to do
And I'm gonna miss you like a child misses their blanket
But Ive got to get a move on with my life
Its time to be a big girl now
And big girls don't cry
Don't cry
Don't cry
Don't cry
The path that I'm walking
I must go alone
I must take the baby steps until I'm full grown
Fairytales don't always have a happy ending, do they
And I foresee the dark ahead if I stay
[CHORUS]
I hope you know, I hope you know
That this has nothing to do with you
It's personal, Myself and I
We've got some straightenin' out to do
And I'm gonna miss you like a child misses their blanket
But I've got to get a move on with my life
Its time to be a big girl now
And big girls don't cry
Like the little school mate in the school yard
We'll play jacks and uno cards
Ill be your best friend and you'll be mine
Valentine
Yes you can hold my hand if u want to
Cause I want to hold yours too
Well be playmates and lovers and share our secret worlds
But its time for me to go home
Its getting late, dark outside
I need to be with myself and center, clarity
Peace, Serenity
[CHORUS]
I hope you know, I hope you know
That this has nothing to do with you
It's personal, Myself and I
We've got some straightenin' out to do
And I'm gonna miss you like a child misses their blanket
But I've got to get a move on with my life
Its time to be a big girl now
And big girls don't cry
Don't cry
Don't cry
Don't cry

Not Ready to Make Nice
Sung by: Dixie Chicks
Forgive, sounds good.
Forget, I'm not sure I could.
They say time heals everything,
But I'm still waiting
I'm through, with doubt,
There's nothing left for me to figure out,
I've paid a price, and i'll keep paying
I'm not ready to make nice,
I'm not ready to back down,
I'm still mad as hell
And I don't have time
To go round and round and round
It's too late to make it right
I probably wouldn't if I could
Cause I'm mad as hell
Can't bring myself to do what it is
You think I should
I know you said
Why can't you just get over it,
It turned my whole world around
and i kind of like it
I made by bed, and I sleep like a baby,
With no regrets and I don't mind saying,
It's a sad sad story
That a mother will teach her daughter
that she ought to hate a perfect stranger.
And how in the world
Can the words that I said
Send somebody so over the edge
That they'd write me a letter
Saying that I better shut up and sing
Or my life will be over
I'm not ready to make nice,
I'm not ready to back down,
I'm still mad as hell
And I don't have time
To go round and round and round
It's too late to make it right
I probably wouldn't if I could
Cause I'm mad as hell
Can't bring myself to do what it is
You think I should
I'm not ready to make nice,
I'm not ready to back down,
I'm still mad as hell
And I don't have time
To go round and round and round
It's too late to make it right
I probably wouldn't if I could
Cause I'm mad as hell
Can't bring myself to do what it is
You think I should
