"Make you feel my love"

Adele´s version

 

When the rain is blowing in your face
And the whole world is on your case
I could offer you a warm embrace
To make you feel my love

When the evening shadows and the stars appear
And there is no one there to dry your tears
I could hold you for a million years
To make you feel my love

I know you haven't made your mind up yet
But I will never do you wrong
I've known it from the moment that we met
No doubt in my mind where you belong

I'd go hungry; I'd go black and blue
I'd go crawling down the avenue
No, there's nothing that I wouldn't do
To make you feel my love

The storms are raging on the rolling sea
And on the highway of regret
The winds of change are blowing wild and free
You ain't seen nothing like me yet

I could make you happy, make your dreams come true
Nothing that I wouldn't do
Go to the ends of the Earth for you
To make you feel my love
To make you feel my love

"Roses"

Darren Hayes

 

What if I told you that your time was up,
That as every second passes there's a moment gone,
And in twenty three hours the sun is gonna set, forever.

Would you hug a little tighter, would you let go first,
Would you focus on love and then forget the hurt,
Living the moment and wish your life away.

How would you spend your last night on earth,
Would you kiss your enemies say sorry first,
Would you take enough time to say your last goodbyes.

All the little battles that you never won,
All the music in the opera never sung,
Emotions that were silent all these years,

You can't smell the roses when you're gone,
You can't smell the roses, no it's not a rehearsal,
You only get one life so make it right,
You can't smell the roses when you're gone,
So live every moment like it's the last night on earth,
Cause this is the last night on earth.

What if I told you that I had regrets,
I would trade in all my happiness for one last kiss,
For a minute or two lying by your side.

What if I chose over nobody more,
If I uttered only promises with empty talk,
If I knew back then the things that I know now.

I would tell you that I love you then we'd all get low,
There are peaks and there are valleys, you've got to have known,
A second chance, it rarely comes around.

You can't smell the roses when you're gone,
You can't smell the roses, no it's not a rehearsal,
You only get one life so make it right,
You can't smell the roses when you're gone,
So live every moment like it's the last night on earth.

If I could have my time again,
I would make sure you knew just how I feel,
Somewhere I wait for much too long,
And the seasons change without me.

You can't smell the roses when you're gone,
You can't smell the roses, no it's not a rehearsal,
You only get one life so make it right,
You can't smell the roses when you're gone,
So live every moment like it's the last night on earth,
As if it's the last night on earth,
Cause this is the last night for love.

The time has come, let us begin
With all our voices joining in
To sing of love and brotherhood
People doing what they should to
Help there fellow man decree
And fill this land with harmony
The young and old, the rich, the poor
Making sounds, never heard before
Harmony! Harmony!
Let's all join in harmony
Sing away the hurt and fear
A great new dream will soon be here
Like the shepherd guards his sheep
Watch your children as they sleep
Like the potter turns his clay
Help to shape a better day, and
Let us sing a song of love
There's one thing I'm certain of
Love will fill the hearts of men
Peace will come on earth once again
Harmony! Harmony!
Let's all join in harmony
Sing away the hurt and fear
A great new dream will soon be here
Harmony! Harmony!
Let's all join in harmony
Sing of love, and brotherhood
And people doing what they should
Harmony! Harmony!
Let's all join in harmony

Belief - John Mayer

 

Is there anyone who

Ever remembers changing their mind from

The paint on a sign

Is there anyone who really recalls

Ever breaking rank at all

For something someone yelled real loud one time

 

Oh everyone believes

In how they think it ought to be

Oh everyone believes

And they're not going easily

 

Belief is a beautiful armor

But makes for the heaviest sword

Like punching underwater

You never can hit who you're trying for

Some need the exhibition

And some have to know they tried

It's the chemical weapon

For the war that's raging on inside

 

Oh everyone believes

From emptiness to everything

Oh everyone believes

And no one's going quietly

 

We're never gonna win the world

We're never gonna stop the war

We're never gonna beat this

If belief is what we're fighting for

We're never gonna win the world

We're never gonna stop the war

We're never gonna beat this

If belief is what we're fighting for

 

Is there anyone who can remember

Ever surrender, with their life on the line

 

We're never gonna win the world

We're never gonna stop the war

We're never gonna beat this

If belief is what we're fighting for

We're never gonna win the world

We're never gonna stop the war

We're never gonna beat this

If belief is what we're fighting for

 

What puts a hundred thousand children in the sand?

Belief can

Belief can

What puts the folded flag inside his mother's hand?

Belief can

Belief can

"Darkness"

Darren Hayes

 

Been spending so much time underground
I guess my eyes adjusted
To the lack of light
I got
Covered in darkness
Covered in darkness

I have been waiting
Always waiting for something new
Happiness has always ended
In the blink of an eye
There was no one attending
No one attending

It doesn't really matter where it all began
All I know
I got covered in darkness
Covered in darkness


Ever wonder why I never really truly connect
Although my eyes are open
I can hold your gaze
But I am never connected
Never connected

I am famous for my generosity
They say I am the kindest
But it is easier to
Give than receive love
Give than receive love

It doesn't really matter where it all began
All I know
I was covered in darkness
Covered in darkness

Turning pages over
Run away to nowhere
And it's hard to take control
When your enemy's old and afraid of you
You'll discover that the monster you were running from
Is the monster in you

Better to hold on to love
Better to hold on to love
Change will come

It doesn't really matter where it all began
All I know
I was covered in darkness
Covered in darkness

It doesn't really matter where it all began
Cuz all I know
I was lost
I was lost
No, no

It doesn't really matter where it all began no no
All I know
I was lost
I feel lost
Lost
No...

One of the few songs that can make me feel hundreds of emotions at the same time:

 

"Old and wise"

The Alan Parson Project

 

As far as my eyes can see
There are shadows approaching me
And to those I left behind
I wanted you to know
You've always shared my deepest thoughts
You follow where I go

And oh when I'm old and wise
Bitter words mean little to me
Autumn winds will blow right through me
And someday in the mist of time
When they asked me if I knew you
I'd smile and say you were a friend of mine
And the sadness would be lifted from my eyes
Oh when I'm old and wise

As far as my eyes can see
There are shadows surrounding me
And to those I leave behind
I want you all to know
You've always shared my darkest hours
I'll miss you when I go

And oh, when I'm old and wise
Heavy words that tossed and blew me
Like autumn winds will blow right through me
And someday in the mist of time
When they ask you if you knew me
Remember that you were a friend of mine
As the final curtain falls before my eyes
Oh when I'm old and wise

As far as my eyes can see

"All I ask"

Adele

 

I will leave my heart at the door
I won't say a word
They've all been said before, you know
So why don't we just play pretend
Like we're not scared of what is coming next
Or scared of having nothing left

Look, don't get me wrong
I know there is no tomorrow
All I ask is

If this is my last night with you
Hold me like I'm more than just a friend
Give me a memory I can use
Take me by the hand while we do what lovers do
It matters how this ends
'Cause what if I never love again?

I don't need your honesty
It's already in your eyes
And I'm sure my eyes, they speak for me
No one knows me like you do
And since you're the only one that mattered
Tell me who do I run to?

Look, don't get me wrong
I know there is no tomorrow
All I ask is

If this is my last night with you
Hold me like I'm more than just a friend
Give me a memory I can use
Take me by the hand while we do what lovers do
It matters how this ends
'Cause what if I never love again?

Let this be our lesson in love
Let this be the way we remember us
I don't wanna be cruel or vicious
And I ain't asking for forgiveness
All I ask is

If this is my last night with you
Hold me like I'm more than just a friend
Give me a memory I can use
Take me by the hand while we do what lovers do
It matters how this ends
'Cause what if I never love again?

"Life for rent"

Dido

 

I haven't ever really found a place that I call home
I never stick around quite long enough to make it
I apologize that once again I'm not in love
But it's not as if I mind that your heart ain't exactly breaking
It's just a thought, only a thought

But if my life is for rent
And I don't learn to buy
Well I deserve nothing more than I get
'Cause nothing I have is truly mine

I've always thought that I would love to live by the sea
To travel the world alone and live more simply
I have no idea what's happened to that dream
'Cause there's really nothing left here to stop me
It's just a thought, only a thought

If my life is for rent
And I don't learn to buy
Well I deserve nothing more than I get
'Cause nothing I have is truly mine
If my life is for rent
And I don't learn to buy
Well I deserve nothing more than I get
'Cause nothing I have is truly mine

While my heart is a shield and I won't let it down
While I am so afraid to fail so I won't even try
Well, how can I say I'm alive?

If my life is for rent
And I don't learn to buy
Well I deserve nothing more than I get
'Cause nothing I have is truly mine
If my life is for rent
And I don't learn to buy
Well I deserve nothing more than I get
'Cause nothing I have is truly mine

'Cause nothing I have is truly mine
'Cause nothing I have is truly mine
'Cause nothing I have is truly mine

"Perfect excuse"

Roxette

 

I wouldn’t come alone
I took my memories along
If there’s something that I’ve learned
You can’t deny the way
The past dictates each dawn

It’s not that I’m afraid
God knows I’ve made my set of rounds
It’s just the way it feels tonight
That makes me lose the plot
What’s really goin’ down
Too hot to handle
Too hard to lose
Fallin’ in love with you
is a perfect excuse

You make me feel at ease
But I know the final show
If there’s something that I’ve learned
It’s better to have left
Before you have to go

It’s not that I’m afraid
God knows I’ve made my set of rounds
You got that twinkle in your eye
That makes me lose my grip
What’s really goin’ down
Too hot to handle
Too hard to lose
Fallin’ in love with you
is a perfect excuse

Too many heartbeats
Hidin’ the truth
Fallin’ in love with you
is a perfect excuse

"Friends will be friends"

Queen

 

Another red letter day
So the pound has dropped, and the children are creating
The other half ran away
Taking all the cash and leaving you with the lumber
Got a pain in the chest
Doctors on strike, what you need is a rest
It′s not easy, love, but you've got friends you can trust

Friends will be friends
When you′re in need of love
They give you care and attention
Friends will be friends
When you're through with life, and all hope is lost
Hold out your hand 'cause friends will be friends
Right ′til the end

Now it′s a beautiful day
The postman delivered a letter from your lover
Only a phone call away
You tried to track him down
But somebody stole his number

As a matter of fact
You're getting used to life without him in your way
It′s so easy now
'Cause you got friends you can trust

Friends will be friends
When you′re in need of love
They give you care and attention
Friends will be friends
When you're through with life, and all hope is lost
Hold out your hand ′cause friends will be friends
Right 'til the end

Luis Fonsi: "Respira"  (Breathe)

 

Blindly
A ciegas

Crossing between fear and grief
Cruzando entre el miedo y la pena

alone in faith
Sola de fe

You hit the wall, you scratch the tablecloth
Golpeas la pared, arañas el mantel

Shaking like a paper boat
Temblando como un barco de papel

I see you

Bob Dylan - My back pages

 

Spoiler

 

Crimson flames tied through my ears, rollin' high and mighty traps
Pounced with fire on flaming roads using ideas as my maps
"We'll meet on edges, soon, " said I, proud 'neath heated brow
Ah, but I was so much older then, I'm younger than that now

 

Half-wracked prejudice leaped forth, "rip down all hate, " I screamed
Lies that life is black and white spoke from my skull, I dreamed
Romantic facts of musketeers foundationed deep, somehow
Ah, but I was so much older then, I'm younger than that now
