why can't i breathe?



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



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


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



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



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


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



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....
