Please don´t stop the rain


I don't know where I crossed the line
Was it something that I said
Or didn't say this time
And I don't know if it's me or you
But I can see the skies are changing
No longer shades of blue
And I don't know which way it's gonna go

If it's gonna be a rainy day
There's nothing we can do to make it change
We can pray for sunny weather
But that won't stop the rain
You're feeling like you've got no place to run
I can be your shelter 'til it's done
We can make this last forever
So please don't stop the rain

(Let it fall, let it fall, let it fall)
Please don't stop the rain
(Let it fall, let it fall, let it fall)
Please don't stop the rain

I thought that time was on our side
I've put in far too many years
To let this pass us by
You see life is a crazy thing
There'll be good time and there'll be bad times
And everything in between
And I don't know which way it's gonna go

If it's gonna be a rainy day
There's nothing we can do to make it change
We can pray for sunny weather
But that won't stop the rain
Feeling like you got no place to run
I can be your shelter 'til it's done
We can make this last forever
So please don't stop the rain

(Let it fall, let it fall, let it fall)
Please don't stop the rain
(Let it fall, let it fall, let it fall)
Please don't stop the rain

Oh we're a little closer now
In finding what life's all about
Yeah I know you just can't stand it
When things don't go your way
But we've got no control over what happens anyway

If it's gonna be a rainy day
There's nothing we can do to make it change
We can pray for sunny weather
But that won't stop the rain
Feeling like you got no place to run
I can be your shelter 'til it's done
We can make this last forever
So please don't stop the rain

(Let it fall, let it fall, let it fall)
Please don't stop the rain
(Let it fall, let it fall, let it fall)
Please don't stop the rain

(Let it fall, let it fall, let it fall)
Can't stop it, can't stop it, just can't stop the rain
(Let it fall, let it fall, let it fall)
Let it fall, please don't stop the rain

Please don´t stop the rain - James Morrison

This boy


This boy wants to play
There's no time left today
It's a shame 'cause he has to go home
This boy's got to work, got to sweat
just to pay what he gets to get left all alone .
But let's step outside
Let's go for a ride just for a while
No we won't get caught
Well that's what I thought, until we cried

I'm still here
But it hasn't been easy
I'm sure
That you had your reasons
I'm scared of all this emotion
For years I've been holding it down
For years I've been holding it down

This girl tries her best everyday
But it's all gone to waste 'cause there's no one around
This girl she can draw, she can paint
Likes to dance, she can skate
Now she don't make a sound
We'll play in the park
Until it's too dark for us to see
Well we'll make our way home
With mud on our clothes
She won't be pleased

I'm still here
But it hasn't been easy
I'm sure that you had your reasons
I'm scared of all this emotion
For years I've been holding it down
And I love to forgive and forget
So I'll try to put all this behind us
Just know that my arms are wide open
The older I get the more that I know
Well it's time to let this go

I got to let it go (x4)


I'm still here, but it hasn't been easy
I'm sure that you had your reasons
I'm scared of all this emotion
For years I've been holding it down

And I love to forgive and forget
So I tried to put all this behind us
Just know that my arms are wide open
The older I get the more that I know

And I love to forgive and forget
So I tried to put all this behind us
Just know that my arms are wide open
The older I get the more that I know
Well it's time to let this go

Secret



Watch the sunrise
Say your goodbyes
Off we go
Some conversation
No contemplation
Hit the road

Car overheats
Jump out of my seat
On the side of the highway baby
Our road is long
Your hold is strong
Please don't ever let go Oh No

Chourus
I know I don't know you
But I want you so bad
Everyone has a secret
Oh can they keep it?
Oh No they can't

I´m driving fast now
Don't think I know how to go slow
Where you at now
I feel around
There you are

Cool these engines
Calm these jets
I ask you how hot can it get
And as you wipe of beads of sweat
Slowly you´re saying
I´m not there yet!!

Janta




Eu quis te conhecer mas tenho que aceitar
Caberá ao nosso amor o eterno ou o não dá
Pode ser cruel a eternidade
Eu ando em frente por sentir vontade

Eu quis te convencer mas chega de insistir
Caberá ao nosso amor o que há de vir
Pode ser a eternidade má
Caminho em frente pra sentir saudade

Paper clips and crayons in my bed
Everybody thinks that I am sad
How I take a ride in melodies and bees and birds
Will hear my words
Will be both us and you and them together
´Cause I can´t forget about myself trying to be anybody else
I feel alright that we can go away
And please my day
I'll let you stay with me if you surrender

Wonderful World



I've been down so low people look at me and they know,
they can tell something is wrong
like I dont belong,
well, staring through a window standing outside there just to happy to care tonight
and I wanna be like them but I'll mess it up again,
I tripped them out when God kicked outside everybody's soul.

Chorus:
And I know that it's a wonderful world
But I cant feel it right now,
I thought I was doing well but I just want to cry now,
Well I know that its a wonderful world from the sky down to the sea,
but I can only see when you're here, here with me.

Sometimes I feel so full that it just comes spilling out,
it's uncomfortable to see I give it away so easily,
but if I had someone I would do anything and never never never never let you feel alone
I wont, I wont leave u on your own,
who am I to dream, dreams are for fools, they let you down.

Chorus:
And I know that it's a wonderful world
But I cant feel it right now,
Well I thought I was doing well but I just want to cry now,
Well I know that its a wonderful world from the sky down to the sea,
but I can only see when you're here, here with me.

And I wish that I could make it better,
I'd give anything for you to call me,
Maybe just a little letter
Oh it could start again.

Chorus:
And I know that it's a wonderful world
But I cant feel it right now,
I thought I was doing well but I just want to cry now,
Well I know that its a wonderful world from the sky down to the sea,
but I can only see when you're here, here with me.

I know that its a wonderful world
but I cant feel it right now,
I've got all the right clothes to wear I just wanna cry now,
I know that it's a wonderful world from the sky down to the sea,
But I can only see well when you're here, here with me.

And I know that it's a wonderful world
When you're with me.


Wonderful World - James Morrison

Undiscovered




I look at you, you bite your tongue
You don´t know why or where i´m coming from
But in my head im close to you
We're in the rain still searching for the sun

You think that I wanna run and hide
I'll keep it all locked up inside
I just want you to find me

I'm not lost, I'm not lost, Just undiscovered
We're never alone we're all the same as each other
You see the look that´s on my face
You might think i´m out of place
I´m not lost, no no, just undiscovered

Well the time it takes to know someone
It all can change before you know its gone
So close your eyes and feel the way
I'm with you now believe there´s nothing wrong

You think that I wanna run and hide
I'll keep it all locked up inside
I just want you to find me
I'm not lost, I´m not lost, Just undiscovered
We're never alone we're all the same as each other
You see the look that´s on my face you might think i´m
out of place
I'm not lost, no no, just undiscovered

Torch




I miss your smell and your style and your pure abiding way
Miss your approach to life and your body in my bed
Miss your take on anything and the music you would play
Miss cracking up and wrestling and our debriefs at end of day

These are things that I miss
These are not times for the weak of heart
These are the days of raw despondence
I never dreamed I would have to lay down my torch for you
[like this


I miss your neck and your gait and your sharing what you write
Miss you walking through the front door documentaries in your
[hand

Miss traveling our traveling and your fun and charming friends
Miss our big sur getaways
And to watch you love my dogs

These are things that I miss
These are not times for the weak of heart
These are the days of raw despondence
I never dreamed I would have to lay down my torch for you
[like this


One step one prayer I soldier on, simulating moving on

I miss your warmth and the thought of us bringing up our kids
And the part of you that walks with your stick-tied handkerchief

These are things that I miss
These are not times for the weak of heart
These are the days of raw despondence
I never dreamed I would have to lay down my torch for you
[like this


These are things that I miss
These are not times for the weak of heart
These are the days of raw despondence
I never dreamed I would have to lay down my torch for you
[like this

Too Long


I waited for so long
Outside myself
You see I was pretenting
To be someone else
I was longing to see
Who i wanted to be

And I've been waiting on my own
I've been waiting for too long
Not strong enough to be with you
And I've been making up my world
I've been painting it with gold
Not strong enough to see you

I irrigate illusions
Then let them grow
How can I pacify myself?
And let go
And I run wild to see
Who I turned out to be

I've been waiting on my own
I've been waiting for too long
Not strong enough to be with you
And I've been making up my world
I've been painting it with gold
Not strong enough to see you

I've been waiting on my own
I've been waiting for too long
Not strong enough to be with you
And I've been making up my world
I've been painting it with gold
Not strong enough to see you

[Trecho em hebraico]

But it was too cold
In my world

Suddenly I See




Her face is a map of the world, is a map of the world
You can see she's a beautiful girl, she's a beautiful girl
And everything around her is a silver pool of light
People who surround her feel the benefit of it
It makes you calm
She'll hold you captivated in her palm

Suddenly I see this is what I wanna be
Suddenly I see why the hell it means so much to me
Suddenly I see this is what I wanna be
Suddenly I see why the hell it means so much to me

I feel like walking the world, like walking the world
You can hear she's a beautiful girl, she's a beautiful girl
She fills up every corner like she's born in black and white
Makes you feel warmer when you're trying to remember what you heard
She likes to leave you hanging on her world

Suddenly I see this is what I wanna be
Suddenly I see why the hell it means so much to me
Suddenly I see this is what I wanna be
Suddenly I see why the hell it means so much to me

And she's taller than most, and she's looking at me
I can see her eyes looking from the page in the magazine
She makes me feel like I could be a tower, big strong tower yeah

The power to be
The power to give
The power to see, yeah, yeah
She got the power to be
The power to give
The power to see, yeah, yeah
The power to be
The power to give
The power to see, yeah, yeah
She got the power to be
The power to give
The power to see, yeah, yeah

Suddenly I see this is what I wanna be
Suddenly I see why the hell it means so much to me
Suddenly I see this is what I want to be
Suddenly I see why the hell it means so much to me

Not As We



Reborn and shivering
Spat out on new terrain
Unsure unconvincing
This faint and shakey hour

Day one, day one
Start over again
Step one, step one
I'm barely making sense for now
I'm faking it till I'm pseudo making it
From scratch begin again but this time I as I
And not as we

Gun shy and quivering
Timid without a hand
Feign brave with steel intent
Little and hardly here

Day one, day one
Start over again
Step one, step one
I'm barely making sense for now
I'm faking it till I'm pseudo making it
From scratch begin again but this time I as I
And not as we

Eyes wet toward
Wide open frayed
If God's taking bets
I pray He wants to lose

Day one, day one
Start over again
Step one, step one
I'm barely making sense for now
I'm faking it till I'm pseudo making it
From scratch begin again but this time I as I
And not as we

A Day


Give me something to laugh about
All this tenderness will wind me up.
You won't come Independence Day
To watch the arrows fly so aimlessly

What has come to me?
When I have watched the universe
The discovery
That everyone
Gets common
So strange
And perfect again

A life is full, a perfect form
Still we carry it hard in our arms
I've memorized the way of things
I'll keep you around with remembering

What has come to me?
When I have watched the universe
The discovery
That everyone
Gets common
So strange
And perfect again

Everyone has moments like these
I don't want to talk about it
What can I say to you
When there's nothing to say
I will find all the reasons
And kill all the good ones
But time, after it all
It will be fine.

What has come to me?
When I have watched the universe
The discovery
That everyone
Gets common
So strange
And perfect again

With every rush of blood that comes
When the sum of you could hide the sun
I'll put it all away today
To watch the arrows fly so aimlessly

A Day - Inara George

Karma Chameleon


Desert a loving in your eyes all the way

I'm a man without conviction
I'm a man who doesn't know.
How to sell a contradiction,
You come and go, you come and go.

Karma Karma Karma Karma
Karma Chameleon
You come and go, you come and go.
Loving would be easy
If your colours were like my dream
Red, gold and green, red, gold and green.

Didn't hear your wicked words ev'ry day
And you used to be so sweet I heard you say
That my love was an addiction
When we cling our love is strong
When you go you're gone forever,
You string along, you string along.

Karma Karma Karma Karma
Karma Chameleon
You come and go, you come and go.
Loving would be easy
If your colours were like my dream
Red, gold and green, red, gold and green.

Ev'ry day is like survival you're my lover, not my rival.

Speed Of Sound


How long, before I get in?
Before it starts, before I begin?
How long before you decide?
before I know what it feels like?

Where to, where do I go?
If you never try, then you'll never know
How long do I have to climb?
Up on the side of this mountain of mine?

Look up, I look up at night
Planets are moving at the speed of light
Climb up, up in the trees
Every chance you get is a chance you seize
How long am I gonna stand
With my head stuck under the sand?
I'll start before I can stop
Before I see things the right way up

All that noise and
all that sound
All those places I got found
And birds go flying at the speed of sound
To show you how it all began
Birds came flying from the underground
If you could see it, then you'll understand

Ideas that you'll never find
All the inventors could never design
The buildings that you put up
Japan and China all lit up
A sign that I couldn't read
Or the light that I couldn't see
Some things you have to believe
But others are puzzles, puzzling me

All that noise and all that sound
All those places I got found
And birds go flying at the speed of sound
To show you how it all began
Birds came flying from the underground
If you could see it, then you'd understand
Ah when you see it, then you'll understand

All those signs I knew what they meant
Some things you can't invent
Some get made and some get sent
And birds go flying at the speed of sound
To show you how it all began
Birds came flying from the underground
If you could see it, then you'd understand
Ah when you see it, then you'll understand

Speed Of Sound - Coldplay

What if?


What if there was no lie
Nothing wrong, nothing right
What if there was no time
And no reason or rhyme
What if you should decide
That you don't want me there by your side
That you don't want me there in your life

What if I got it wrong
And no poem or song
Could put right what I got wrong
Or make you feel I belong
What if you should decide
That you don't want me there by your side
That you don't want me there in your life

Refrão:
Oooh, that's right
Let's take a breath and jump over inside
Oooh, that's right
How can you know it, if you don't even try?
Oooh, that's right

Every step that you take
Could be your biggest mistake
And it could bend or it could break
That's the risk that you take
What if you should decide
That you don't want me there in your life
That you don't want me there by your side

refrão (2x)

Oooh, that's right
Let's take a breath and jump over inside
Oooh, that's right
You know that darkness always turns into light
Oooh, that's right

Heal Over



Isn't very difficult to see why

you are the way you are.
Doesn't take a genius
to realise that sometimes life is hard.

It's gonna take time
but you'll just have to wait.
You're gonna be fine
but in the meantime.

I'm over here, lady
Let me wipe your tears away.
Come a little nearer, baby
'cause you'll heal over,
heal over,
heal over someday.

I don't wanna hear you tell yourself
that these feeling are in the past.
No, it doesn't mean they're off the shelf
because pain is built to last.
Everybody sails alone
oh, but we can travel side by side.
Even if you fail,
you know that no one really minds.

I'm over here, lady
Let me wipe your tears away.
Come a little nearer, baby
'cause you'll heal over,
heal over,
heal over someday.

Don't hold on,
but don't let go,
I know it's so hard.
you've got to try to
trust yourself.
I know it's so hard.
so hard, yeah.

I'm over here, lady
Let me wipe your tears away.
Come a little nearer, baby
'cause you'll heal over,
heal over,
heal over someday.

yeah you're gonna heal over.

Mary Jane


What's the matter Mary Jane, you had a hard day
As you place the don't disturb sign on the door
You lost your place in line again, what a pity
You never seem to want to dance anymore

It'sa long way down
On this roller coaster
The last chance streetcar
Went off the track
And you're on it

I hear you're counting sheep again Mary Jane
What's the point of trying' to dream anymore
I hear you're losing weight again Mary Jane
Do you ever wonder who you're losing it for

Well it's full speed baby
In the wrong direction
There's a few more bruises
If that's the way
You insist on heading

Please be honest Mary Jane
Are you happy
Please don't censor your tears

You're the sweet crusader
And you're on your way
You're the last great innocent
And that's why I love you

So take this moment Mary Jane and be selfish
Worry not about the cars that go by
All that matters Mary Jane is your freedom
Keep warm my dear, keep dry

Tell me
Tell me
What's the matter Mary Jane

Mary Jane - Alanis Morissette

Gravity


Lost again
Broken and weary
Unable to find my way
Tail in hand
Dizzy and clearly unable to
Just let this go

I am surrendering to the gravity and the unknown
Catch me heal me lift me back up to the sun
I choose to live

I fell again
Like a baby unable to stand on my own
Tail in hand
Dizzy and clearly unable to just let this go
High and surrendering to the gravity and the unknown
Catch me heal me lift me back up to the sun
I choose to live, I choose to live, I choose to live

Catch me heal me lift me back up to the sun
Help me survive the bottom

Calm these hands before they
Snare another pill and
Drive another nail down another
Needy hole please release me

I am surrendering to the gravity and the unknown
Catch me heal me lift me back up to the sun
I choose to live, I choose to live

Weakness


Found you there in the blink of an eye 
I miss you
Turned away into a thousand dreams
You've found out what they mean

Lost you there in a moment of truth
I trust you
Gave away your one and only heart
A gift to tear apart

Stain me, save me
Take me to my home
Hold me, show me
Take me to my home

Weaker now, drawing fluid from me
You kill me
I'm not afraid of what you have just done
But of what you've just become

So Unsexy


Oh these little rejections how they add up quickly
One small sideways look and I feel so ungood
Somewhere along the way I think I gave you the power to make
Me feel the way I thought only my father could

Oh these little rejections how they seem so real to me
One forgotten birthday I'm all but cooked
How these little abandonments seem to sting so easily
I'm 13 again am I 13 for good?

I can feel so unsexy for someone so beautiful
So unloved for someone so fine
I can feel so boring for someone so interesting
So ignorant for someone of sound mind

Oh these little protections how they fail to serve me
One forgotten phone call and I'm deflated
Oh these little defenses how they fail to comfort me
Your hand pulling away and I'm devastated

When will you stop leaving baby?
When will I stop deserting baby?
When will I start staying with myself?

Oh these little projections how they keep springing from me
I jump my ship as I take it personally
Oh these little rejections how they disappear quickly
The moment I decide not to abandon me

So Unsexy - Alanis Morissette

Good to me


What's so different
With the color of things
I feel the wind push the car,
And I look at you again.
When you turn to me
And ask me what I think.
I nod and then I sing along
To all the song you like.

There hasn't been a time that I have wished I wasn't here
with you.]
Your eyes are good to me, they can see, they can see what
my mother sees.]
They can see what my mother sees.

I fall asleep
Like some airplane crash
You drive a little more
So you don't have to wake me up
I can dream
And I can worry
But then you say to me
I know you better than you think


There hasn't been a time that I have wished I wasn't here with you
with you.]
Your eyes are good to me, they can see, they can see what
my mother sees.]
They can see what my mother sees.

Why have all the bombs been blasting in the air?
Do you know what our love can do?
Oh slowly, you know me, like a man should.
I'm so sunny
Everyday
So sunny


There hasn't been a time that I have wished I wasn't here
with you.]
Your eyes are good to me, they can see, they can see what
my mother sees.]
They can see what my mother sees.
Good to Me - Inara George
