My new favorite songs

Oh, goodness, there are some GREAT songs out there right now!! Here are some of my favorites (and please notice that they are NOT all country!) These are just the ones I've been playing over and over on my iPod...but there are so many more that I adore!

Love You Till the End
by The Pogues

I just want to see you
When you're all alone
I just want to catch you if I can
I just want to be there
When the morning light explodes
On your face it radiates
I can't escape
I love you till the end

I just want to tell you nothing
You don't want to hear
All I want is for you to say
Why don't you just take me
Where I've never been before
I know you want to hear me
Catch my breath
I love you till the end

I just want to be there
When we're caught in the rain
I just want to see you laugh, not cry
I just want to feel you
When the night puts on its cloak
I'm lost for words don't tell me
All I can say
I love you till the end


Ready, Set, Don't Go
by Billy Ray and Miley Cyrus

(BILLY RAY:) She's gotta do what she's gotta do
And I've gotta like it or not
She's got dreams too big for this town
And she needs to give 'em a shot
Wherever they are

(MILEY:)Looks like I'm all ready to leave
There's nothin' left to pack

(BILLY RAY:)Ain't no room for me in that car
Even if she asks me to tag along
Gotta gotta be strong

(MILEY:)I'm at the startin line of the rest of my life
As ready as I've ever been
Got the hunger and the stars in my eyes
The prize is mine to win

(BILLY RAY:)She's waitin' on my blessins
`Fore she hits that open road
Baby get ready,

(MILEY:)Ohh, I'm ready

(BILLY RAY:)Get set,
Don't go.

(MILEY:)Looks like things are fallin in place

(BILLY RAY:)Feels like they're fallin apart
I'm paintin this big ol' smile on my face
To hide my broken heart
If only she knew

(MILEY:)This is where you don't say
What you want so bad to say

(BILLY RAY;)This is where I want to
But I won't get in the way
Of her and her dream
And spreadin' her wings

(MILEY:)I'm ready to flyyyyy!
I'm at the startin line of the rest of my life
As ready as I've ever been
Got the hunger and the stars in my eyes
The prize is mine to win

(BILLY RAY:)She's waitin' on my blessins
`fore she hits that open road,

(MILEY:)gotta hit that open road

(BILLY RAY:)Baby get ready,
Get set,
Don't go

(MILEY:)I'm at the startin' line of the rest of my life
As ready as I've ever been

(BILLY RAY:)You'll be alright!

(MILEY:)Got the hunger and the stars in my eyes
The prize is mine to win
I'll be okay!


Say
by John Mayer

Take all of your wasted honor
Every little past frustration
Take all of your so called problems
Better put them in quotations
Say what you need to say

Walkin' like a one man army
Fightin' with the shadows in your head
Living out the same old moment
Knowing you’d be better off instead
If you could only
Say what you need to say

Have no fear for giving in
Have no fear for getting older
You better know that in the end
it's better to say too much
Than never to say what you need to say again

Even if your hands are shaking
And your faith is broken
Even as the eyes are closing
Do it with a heart wide open
Why?
Say what you need to say



More Time
by Needtobreathe

I promised you the world again
Everything within my hands
All the riches one could dream
They will come from me
I hoped that you could understand
That this is not what I had planned
Please don’t worry now
It will turn around

'Cause I need more time
Just a few more months and we’ll be fine
So say what’s on your mind
'Cause I can’t figure out just what’s inside

I hoped that you could understand
That this is not what I had planned
Please don’t worry now
It will turn around
'Cause I need more time
Just a few more months and we’ll be fine
So say what’s on your mind
'Cause I can’t figure out just what’s inside
So say alright
'Cause I know we can make it if we try
'Cause I need more time
Just a few more months and we’ll be fine

We’re off to new lands
So hold on to my hands
It’s gonna be alright
It’s a whole lot brighter
Standing by the fire
It’s gonna be alright

Yeah, the road gets harder
But it’s not much farther
It’s gonna be alright
You know that it ain’t easy
Please believe me
It’s gonna be alright
Please don’t worry now
'Cause it will turn around
'Cause I need more time
Just a few more months and we’ll be fine
So say what’s on your mind
'Cause I can’t figure out just what’s inside

So say alright
'Cause I know we can make it if we try
'Cause I need more time
Just a few more months and we’ll be fine


No One
by Alicia Keys

I just want you close
Where you can stay forever
You can be sure
That it will only get better
You and me together
Through the days and nights
I don't worry 'cuz
Everything's going to be alright
People keep talking they can say what they like
But all I know is everything's going to be alright

No one, no one, no one
Can get in the way of what I'm feeling
No one, no one, no one
Can get in the way of what I feel for you, you, you
Can get in the way of what I feel for you

When the rain is pouring down
And my heart is hurting
You will always be around
This I know for certain
You and me together
Through the days and nights
I don't worry 'cuz

Everything's going to be alright
People keep talking they can say what they like
But all I know is everything's going to be alright
No one, no one, no one
Can get in the way of what I'm feeling
No one, no one, no one
Can get in the way of what I feel for you, you, you
Can get in the way of what I feel

I know some people search the world
To find something like what we have
I know people will try try to divide something so real
So til the end of time I'm telling you there is no one
No one, no one, no one
Can get in the way of what I'm feeling
No one, no one, no one
Can get in the way of what I feel for you, you, you

oh oh oh oh
oh oh oh oh
oh oh oh oh
oh oh oh oh
oh oh oh oh

I'll have to try and hunt those up on itunes. I know for sure I've at least heard the billy ray/miley one, because they performed it on Oprah, and I actually happened to catch an episode of Oprah that day (not a time-frame I generally have the TV on)

That's funny that that's the only one Leah knows cause the same is true for me! I only caught that Oprah because of the wonderful invention called TiVo. If it wasn't for that my life would be consumed by Clifford, Curious George, and Hannah Montana!
