Sam Cooke - Hold On Lyrics

Sam Cooke - Hold On Video

(Hold On, Hold On)
Hold on just a little bit longer
Keep the faith and let your love be stronger
Hold on, like a promised you
Cause I'll be coming back to you
 
I heard just the other day,
That since we've
Since we've been apart
Someone is making a play
Darling, to steal your heart
But I say
 
Hold on just a little bit longer
Keep the faith
And let your love be stronger
Hold on, like a promised you
Cause I'll be coming back to you
 
His arms, oh his arms may be so tempting
But darling, remember, remember so am I
So be strong, and think of me only
And forget about that other guy
All I want you to do for me, is
 
Hold on just a little bit longer
Keep the faith and let your love be stronger
Hold on, like a promised you
Cause I'll be coming back to you
 
Oh, hold on pretty baby,
Hold on just a little longer

Robbie Williams - Feel Lyrics

Robbie Williams - Feel Video

Come and hold my hand
I wanna contact the living
Not sure I understand
This role I've been given
 
I sit and talk to God
And he just laughs at my plans
My head speaks a language
I don't understand
 
I just wanna feel real love
Fill the home that I live in
'Cos I got too much life
Running through my veins
Going to waste
 
I don't wanna die
But I ain't keen on living either
Before I fall in love
I'm preparing to leave her
 
Scare myself to death
That's why I keep on running
Before I've arrived
I can see myself coming
 
I just wanna feel real love
Fill the home that I live in
'Cos I got too much life
Running through my veins
Going to waste
 
And I need to feel real love
In a life ever after
I cannot give it up
 
I just wanna feel real love
Fill the home that I live in
I got too much love
Running through my veins
To go to waste
 
I just wanna feel real love
In a life ever after
There's a hole in my soul
You can see it in my face
It's a real big place
 
Come and hold my hand
I want to contact the living
Not sure I understand
This role I've been given
Not sure I understand
Not sure I understand
Not sure I understand
Not sure I understand

Pet Shop Boys - To Face The Truth Lyrics

Pet Shop Boys - To Face The Truth Video

(Tennant/Lowe)
--------------------
You know it hurts me when you lie
Sometimes it even makes me cry
'Cause I'm so in love with you
If you don't believe what I have said
Take a look, my eyes are red
'Cause I'm so in love with you
But all those sleepless nights in bed
When you've been out somewhere instead
I wonder if you care and cannot bear the proof
It hurts too much to face the truth
To face the truth
 
A lawyer with a case to prove
Would sift the evidence, then move
It's the only thing to do
So why then can't I face the facts?
Sift this evidence that backs
I am so in love with you
But all the nights when you have said
You must be somewhere else instead
I wonder where you go, but daren't expose the proof
It hurts too much to face the truth
To face the truth
To face the truth
 
You are the only one, the only one
 
You know it hurts me when you lie
Sometimes it even makes me cry
'Cause I'm so in love with you
If you don't believe what I have said
Take a look, my eyes are red
'Cause I'm so in love with you
But all the nights you don't show up
I know it's time I should grow up
I ask you if you care, you stand and stare aloof
It hurts too much to face the truth
To face the truth
To face the truth

Mary J. Blige - Rainy Dayz Lyrics

Mary J. Blige - Rainy Dayz Video

Hey, yeah
Rule baby, yeah
Mary J. Blige
Murder Inc.
Smile
 
It's just those rainy days
Spend a lifetime, tryin' to wash away
Until the sun comes out and shines again
Smile for me, smile for me
 
All of those rainy days
Spend your lifetime, tryin' to wash away
Until the sun shines and I see your face
Smile at me, smile at me
 
We were always livin' so crazy and sexy and cool
And we began to love it (began to love it)
Watchin' all of the heartache and pain of the world
And thinkin' nothin' of it (thinkin' nothin' of it)
And baby, I got a love for you
And I know that you got me, baby
But everytime the sun shines bright
It gets so cloudy
 
It's just those rainy days
Spend a lifetime tryin' to wash away
Until the sun comes out and shines again
Smile for me, smile for me
 
All of those rainy days
Spend your lifetime tryin' to wash away
Until the sun shines and I see your face
Smile at me, smile at me
 
Cause nobody loves the rain
 
Can't stand it
But it always seems to fall
 
Baby, handle it
Baby, didn't we tell ya before
About chasin' those waterfalls
Chasin' waterfalls
Yeah
 
Cause nobody loves the rain
 
Can't stand it
But it always seems to fall
 
Baby, handle it
Baby, what did we tell ya before
About chasin' those waterfalls
 
Yeah
 
Yeah, baby
Sometimes the Rule don't mind the rain
It kinda feels like I'm drownin' in the Lord's pain
Until the sun comes out and shines again
Smile, and give me a reason to keep on believin'
That everything ain't misleadin'
And I kiss the clouds on them rainy days
And smile for you, when the skies are gray
Babe, cause I'm a tear drop away from cryin'
And a few shots away from dyin'
Dear Lord, would you shower my pain
Let it rain, let it rain on me
While I cherish the air I breathe
I'm an angel, that can't soar, can't fly
And I mastered it, Lord knows why
 
It's just those rainy days
Spend a lifetime tryin' to wash away
Until the sun comes out and shines again
Smile for me, smile for me
 
All of those rainy days
Spend your lifetime tryin' to wash away
Until the sun shines and I see your face
Smile at me, smile at me
 
I feel like an angel
With my broken wings
So I can soar again
Lord, let me in
Baby, through all the passion, the pain, and the hurt
I feel like I'm fallin', yeah
 
Makin' clothes for all of those
That spread the love
And for those who can't take it
Stand up
Baby, we gonna make it
In the words of Marvin Gaye
War is not the answer
 
Nobody loves the rain
 
Can't stand it
But it always seems to fall
 
Baby, handle it
Baby, didn't we tell ya before
About chasin' those waterfalls
Chasin' waterfalls
 
Yeah
 
Nobody loves the rain
 
Can't stand it
But it always seems to fall
 
Baby, handle it
Baby, what did we tell ya before
About chasin' those waterfalls
 
Yeah
 
It's just those rainy days
Spend a lifetime tryin' to wash away
Until the sun come out and shines again
Smile for me, smile for me
 
All of those rainy days
Spend your lifetime tryin' to wash away
Until the sun shines and I see your face
Smile at me, smile at me
 
Smile, smile, smile, smile
Smile, smile, smile, smile, smile
Til the sun shines
Just smile for me
Just smile for me, just smile at me
Know in your heart, that we are free
Free to believe, whatever we feel
So feel somethin' real, baby
Hey

Hall & Oates - Unguarded Minute Lyrics

Hall & Oates - Unguarded Minute Video

Maybe I speak too soon
Maybe I play too hard
And I listen to major worries
In a minor way
 
You sent your message to me
You made a move that I'd understand
When you moved from a ticket in line
To a room in L.A.
 
There was a time split second
I could have said please
Fool around and my guard was down
By a few degrees
 
An unguarded minute (Watch out)
Has an accident in it (Oh)
An unguarded minute (Watch out)
Has an accident in it (Oh)
 
I guess I should have tried a little bit
Yeah, I could have changed
I could be anything that you want
But it wouldn't be me
 
Do anything that you say
Use any thought to armor the way
So do you love the man that I am,
Or what you want me to be?
 
I wanna hold you now
But I can let you go
So anytime you can do better
Just let me know
 
An unguarded minute (Watch out)
Has an accident in it (Oh)
An unguarded minute (Watch out)
Has an accident in it (Oh)
 
(Unguarded minute)
I wanna hold you tight
(Accident in it)
Oh
(Unguarded minute)
I wanna hold you tight
(Accident in it)
Has an accident in it
 
I wanna hold you now
But I can't let you go
So anytime that you can do better
Just let me know
 
An unguarded minute (Watch out)
Has an accident in it (Oh)
An unguarded minute (Watch out)
Has an accident in it (Oh)
 
I wanna hold you tight (Watch out)
Please let me hold you tight (Oh)
I wanna hold you tight (Watch out)
Please let me hold you tight
 
You can do better than me (Watch out)
Why don't you try it? (Unguarded minute)
You can do better than me (Unguarded minute)
You better buy it (Unguarded minute)
 
Oh, an unguarded minute
Has an accident in it (Oh)

You know alot of girls be
Thinkin' my songs are about them, but

Bigger than you ever done it

You know I'll be over there
(Yup!) I'll be over there
Shorty, I'll be over there
I'll be hittin' all the spots that you ain't even know was there
And you don't even have to ask twice
You could have my heart or we can share it like the last slice
Always felt like you was so accustomed to the fast life
Have a nigga thinkin' that he met you in a past life
Sweatpants hair tied chillin' with no make-up on
That's when you're the prettiest
I hope that you don't take it wrong
You don't even trip when friends say
You ain't bringin' Drake along
You know that I'm workin'

And she a patient in my waitin' room
Never pay attention to the rumors and what they assume
And until them girls prove it

Bigger than you ever done it

Every time I hit her up
When I get right

Sex, love, pain, baby I be on that Tank shit
Buzz so big I could probably sell a blank disc
When my album drop, bitches'll buy it for the picture
And niggas'll buy it too and claim they got it for their sister
Magazine, paper girl, but money ain't the issue
They bring dinner to my room and ask me to initial
She call me 'the referee' cause I be so official
My shirt ain't got no stripes but I can make your pussy whistle
Like the Andy Griffith theme song
And who told you to put them jeans on?
Double cup love, you the one I lean on
Feelin' for a fix, then you should really get your fiend on
Yeah, just know my condo is the crack spot
Every single show she out there reppin' like a mascot
Get it from the back and make your fuckin' bra strap pop
All up in your slot 'til a nigga hit the jackpot
I'm sayin'
 
Baby, you my everything
You all I ever wanted
We could do it real big
Bigger than you ever done it
You'll be up on everything
Other hoes ain't ever on it
I want this forever
I swear I can spend whatever on it
'Cause she hold me down
Every time I hit her up
When I get right
I promise that we gon' live it up
She made me beg for it
'Til she give it up
And I say the same thing every single time
 
I say you the fuckin' best

David Gray - The Other Side Lyrics

David Gray - The Other Side Video

Meet me on the other side
Meet me on the other side
I'll see you on the other side
See you on the other side
 
Honey now if I'm honest
I still don't know what love is
Another mirage folds into the haze of time recalled
And now the floodgates cannot hold
All my sorrow all my rage
A teardrop falls on every page
 
Meet me on the other side
Meet me on the other side
 
Maybe I oughta mention
It was never my intention
To harm you or your kin
Are you so scared to look within
The ghosts are crawling on our skin
We may race and we may run
We'll not undo what has been done
Or change the moment when it's gone
 
Meet me on the other side
Meet me on the other side
I'll see you on the other side
I'll see you on the other side
 
I know it would be outrageous
To come on all courageous
And offer you my hand
To pull you up on to dry land
When all I got is sinking sand
The trick ain't worth the time it buys
I'm sick of hearing my own lies
And love's a raven when it flies
 
Meet me on the other side
Meet me on the other side
I'll see you on the other side
I'll see you on the other side
 
Honey now if I'm honest
I still don't know what love is

Collin Raye - In This Life Lyrics

Collin Raye - In This Life Video

For all I've been blessed with in this life,
There was an emptiness in me.
I was imprisoned by the power of gold.
With one honest touch, you set me free.
 
Let the world stop turning,
Let the sun stop burning.
Let them tell me love's not worth going through.
If it all falls apart, I will know deep in my heart
The only dream that matters has come true;
In this life, I was loved by you.
 
For every mountain I have climbed,
Every raging river crossed,
You were the treasure that I longed to find.
Without your love I would be lost.
 
Let the world stop turning,
Let the sun stop burning,
Let them tell me love's not worth going through.
If it all falls apart, I will know deep in my heart,
The only dream that mattered had come true;
In this life i was loved by you.
 
In this life, I was loved by you.

Christina Aguilera - Reflection Lyrics

Christina Aguilera - Reflection Video

Look at me
You may think you see
Who I really am
But you'll never know me
Every day
 
It's as if I play a part
Now I see
If I wear a mask
I can fool the world
But I cannot fool my heart
 
Who is that girl I see
Staring straight back at me?
When will my reflection show
Who I am inside?
 
I am now
In a world where I
Have to hide my heart
And what I believe in
 
But somehow
I will show the world
What's inside my heart
And be loved for who I am
 
Who is that girl I see
Staring straight back at me?
Why is my reflection
Someone I don't know?
 
Must I pretend that I'm
Someone else for all time?
When will my reflection show
Who I am inside?
 
There's a heart that must be
Free to fly
That burns with a need to know
The reason why
 
Why must we all conceal
What we think, how we feel?
Must there be a secret me
I'm forced to hide?
I won't pretend that I'm
 
Someone else for all time
When will my reflection show
Who I am inside?
When will my reflection show
Who I am inside?

Chris Rea - Fool (If You Think It's Over) Lyrics

Chris Rea - Fool (If You Think It's Over) Video

A dyin' flame. You're free again.
Who could love, and do that to you?
All dressed in black. He won't be comin' back.
Well save your tears. You got years and years.
The pains of seventeens, unreal they're only dreams.
Save your cryin' for the day.
 
Fool if you think it's over, cause you said goodbye
Fool if you think it's over, I'll tell you why.
Newborn eyes always cry with pain at first look at the morning sun.
Fool if you think it's over. It's just begun.
 
Miss Teenage Dream, such a tragic scene.
He knocked your crown and ran away.
First wound of pride, and how you cried and cried
Well save your tears, you got years and years
 
Fool if you think it's over.
Fool if you think it's over.
 
I'll buy you first good wine.
We'll have a real good time.
Save your cryin' for the day.
 
Fool if you think it's over, cause you said goodbye.
Fool if you think it's over, I'll tell you why
Newborn eyes always cry with pain at the first look at the morning sun.
Fool if you think it's over. It's just begun.
 
Newborn eyes always cry with pain at the first look at the morning sun.
Fool if you think it's over. It's just begun.
 
Fool if you think it's over.
Fool if you think it's over.
