You Light Up My Life
by LeAnn Rimes


So Many Nights I'd Sit By My Window
Waiting For Someone To Sing Me His Song
So Many Dreams I Kept Deep Inside Me
Alone In The Dark But Now You've Come Along

And You Light Up My Life
You Give Me Hope To Carry On
You Light Up My Days
And Fill My Nights With Song

Rollin' At Sea Adrift On The Waters
Could It Be Finally I'm Turning For Home
Finally A Chance To Say 'hey I Love You'
Never Again To Be All Alone

And You Light Up My Life
You Give Me Hope To Carry On
You Light Up My Days
And Fill My Nights With Song

You You Light Up My Life
You Give Me Hope To Carry On
You Light Up My Days
And Fill My Nights With Song
It Can't Be Wrong When It Feels So Right
'cause You You Light Up My Life

She
by Elvis Costello


She may be the face I can't forget.
The trace of pleasure or regret.
May be my treasure,
or the price I have to pay.

She may be the song the summer sings.
May be the chill the autumn brings.
May be a hundred different things,
within the measure of a day.

She may be the beauty or the beast.
May be the famine or the feast.
May turn each day into a heaven or a hell.

She may be the mirror of my dreams.
The smile reflected in a stream.
She may not be what she may seem
inside her shell.

She who always seems so happy in a crowd.
Who's eyes can be so private and so proud.
No one's allowed to see them when they cry.

She may be the love that cannot hope to last.

That comes indeed from shadows in the past,
that I remember till the day I die.

She may be the reason I survive.
The why and where for I'm alive.
The one I'll care for
through the rough and ready years.

Me,
I'll take her laughter and her tears,
and make them all my souvenirs,
for where she goes I've got to be,

the meaning of my life is she...

She may be the face I can't forget.
The trace of pleasure or regret.
May be my treasure,
or the price I have to pay.

She may be the song the summer sings.
May be the chill the autumn brings.
May be a hundred diff'rent things,
within the measure of a day.

She may be the beauty or the beast.
May be the famine or the feast.
May turn each day into a heaven or a hell.

She may be the mirror of my dreams.
The smile reflected in a stream.
She may not be what she may seem
inside her shell.

She who always seems so happy in a crowd.
Who's eyes can be so private and so proud.
No one's allowed to see them when they cry.

She may be the love that cannot hope to last.

That comes indeed from shadows in the past,
that I remember till the day I die.

She may be the reason I survive.
The why and where for I'm alive.
The one I'll care for
through the rough and ready years. She...


Baby You're Mine
by Basia

Sitting there and feeling lonely
Had my blue eyes for you only
Suddenly you turned around and smiled at me

It wasn't my imagination
Had no doubts no hesitation
When it comes to love I know where I wanna be

Is it real am I dreaming
I've been waiting light years for someone like you
Can't believe you are here with me
I've got you and I can't hide it anymore
I want the world to know that

Baby you're mine
You are blowing my mind
We are two of a kind
Baby you're really mine

Now I see what I've been missing
It's the happiest girl you're kissing
Baby only you can make me feel like this

OCEAN DEEP
by Cliff Richard

Love, can't you see I'm alone? Can't you give this fool a chance?
A little love is all I ask, a little kindness in the night.
Please don't leave me behind, no, don't tell me love is blind
A little love is all I ask and that is all.
Ooh love, I've been searchin' so long,
I've been searchin' high and low
And little love is all I ask, a little sadness when you go.
Maybe you'll need a friend, only please don't let's pretend
A little love is all I ask and that is all.
I wanna spread my wings, but I just can't fly
As a string of pearls, the pretty girls go sailin' by.
Ocean deep, I'm so afraid to show my feelings
I have sailed a million ceilings, solitary room.
Ocean deep, will I ever find a lover?
Maybe she has found another and as I cry myself to sleep
I know this love of mine I'll keep, ocean deep.
Now , can't you hear when I call? Can't you hear the word I say?
A little love is all I ask, a little feelin' when we touch
Why am I still alone? I've got a heart without a home
A little love is all I ask and that is all
I wanna spread my wings, but I just can't fly
As a string of pearls, the pretty girls go sailin' by.
Ocean deep, I'm so afraid to show my feelings
I have sailed a million ceilings, solitary room.
I'm so lonely, lonely, lonely (Ocean deep)
On my own in my room, I'm so lonely (Ocean deep)
I'm so lonely , I'm so lonely...

YOUR SONG
by Elton John

It's a little bit funny this feeling inside
I'm not one of those who can easily hide
I don't have much money but boy if I did
I'd buy a big house where we both could live

If I was a sculptor, but then again, no
Or a man who makes potions in a travelling show
I know it's not much but it's the best I can do
My gift is my song and this one's for you

And you can tell everybody this is your song
It may be quite simple but now that it's done
I hope you don't mind, I hope you don't mind that I put down in words
How wonderful life is while you're in the world

I sat on the roof and kicked off the moss
Well a few of the verses well they've got me quite cross
But the sun's been quite kind while I wrote this song
It's for people like you that keep it turned on

So excuse me forgetting but these things I do
You see I've forgotten if they're green or they're blue
Anyway the thing is what I really mean
Yours are the sweetest eyes I've ever seen

You
by Basil Valdez

You give me hope
The strength, the will to keep on
No one else can make me feel this way
And only you can bring out all the best I can do
I believe you turn the tide and make me feel real good inside

You push me up
When I'm about to give up
You're on my side when no one seems to listen
And if you go you know the tears can't help but show
You'll break this heart and tear it apart
And suddenly the madness starts

It's your smile, your face, your lips that I miss
Those sweet little eyes that stare with me and make me sing
I'm with you through all the way
Coz it's you who feels the emptiness in me
You changes everything you see
When I know I got you with me

Big Yellow Taxi
Counting Crows & Vanessa Carlton

They paved paradise and put up a parkin' lot
With a pink hotel, a boutique, and a swingin' hot spot
Don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you got till it's gone
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot

They took all the trees, and put em in a tree museum
And they charged the people a dollar and a half to see them
Don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you got till it's gone
They paved paradise, and put up a parking lot

Hey farmer, farmer, put away your DDT
I don't care about spots on my apples,
LEAVE me the birds and the bees please
Don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you got till it's gone
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot
Hey now, they paved paradise to put up a parking lot
Why not?

Listen, late last night, heard the screen door slam
And a big yellow taxi took my girl away
Don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you got till it's gone
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot
Well, don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you got till it's gone
They paved paradise to put up a parking lot
Well now, they paved paradise
And put up a parking lot

I don't wanna give it
Why you wanna give it
Why you wanna givin it all away
Hey, hey, hey
Now you wanna give it
I should wanna give it
Now you wanna givin it all away

Hey, paved paradise, put up a parking lot
Paved paradise, and put up a parking lot

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 I pray in 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 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

New York Minute
by Eagle

Harry got up
Dressed all in black
Went down to the station
And he never came back
They found his clothing
Scattered somewhere down the track
And he won't be down on Wall Street
in the morning

He had a home
The love of a girl
But men get lost sometimes
As years unfold
One day he crossed some line
And he was too much in this world
But I guess it doesn't matter anymore

In a New York Minute
Everything can change
In a New York Minute
Things can get pretty strange
In a New York Minute
Everything can change
In a New York Minute

Lying here in the darkness
I hear the sirens wail
Somebody going to emergency
Somebody's going to jail
If you find somebody to love in this world
You better hand on tooth and nail
The wolf is always at the door

In a New York Minute
Everything can change
In a New York Minute
Things can get a little strange
In a New York Minute
Everything can change
In a New York Minute

And in these days
When darkness falls early
And people rush home
To the ones they love
You better take a fool's advice
And tak care of your own
One day they're here;
Next day they're gone

I pulled my coat around my shoulders
And took a walk down through the park
The leaves were falling around me
The groaning city in the gathering dark
On some solitary rock
A desperate lover left his mark,
"Baby, I've changed. Please come back."

What the head makes cloudy
The heart makes very clear
The days were so much brighter
In the time when she was here
But I know there's somebody somewhere
Make these dark clouds disappear
Until that day, I have to believe
I believe, I believe

In a New York Minute
Everything can change
In a New York Minute
You can get out of the rain
In a New York Minute
Everything can change
In a New York Minute

Why Worry
by Dire Strait

Baby I see this world has made you sad
Some people can be bad
The things they do, the things they say
But baby I'll wipe away those bitter tears
I'll chase away those restless fears
That turn your blue skies into grey
Why worry, there should be laughter after the pain
There should be sunshine after rain
These things have always been the same
So why worry now
Baby when I get down I turn to you
And you make sense of what I do
I know it isn't hard to say
But baby just when this world seems mean and cold
Our love comes shining red and gold
And all the rest is by the way
Why worry, there should be laughter after pain
There should be sunshine after rain
These things have always been the same
So why worry now
