Finding Meaning

Sometimes it pays to wonder
What lies across the way
A deserted urban jungle
Or a glimmering blue bay
Sometimes the less beaten path
Is the one that leads astray
Oooh
Can't stop swimming
I'm brighter than the sun
More guided by the stars
Some day when the dark approaches near
I'll wonder where you are
When the moon falls out of orbit
And crashes to the sea
I may learn what it truly is
What it truly means to be
Sometimes it takes a different look
To tell them you're the same
Sometimes going by the book
Is what leads you astray
And all it takes is turning off the lights
To realize
its been day all along
Ooh
And you think what could have been
And you think what could have been
And you think what could have been
And you think what could have been
And you think what could have been
And you think what could have been
And you think what could have been
And you think
Im brighter than the sun
More guided by the stars
Some day when the dark approaches near
I'll wonder where you are
When the moon falls out of orbit
And crashes to the sea
I may learn what it truly is
What it truly means to be
Means to be
Means to be
Means to be
Means to be
Means to be
Means to be

You say there's so much you don't know
You need to go and find yourself
You say you'd rather be alone
'Cause you think you won't find it tied to someone else
Ooh, who said it's true
That the growing only happens on your own?
They don't know me and you
I don't think you have to leave
If to change is what you need
You can change right next to me
When you're high, I'll take the lows
You can ebb and I can flow
And we'll take it slow
And grow as we go
Grow as we go
You won't be the only one
I am unfinished, I've got so much left to learn
I don't know how this river runs
But I'd like the company through every twist and turn
Ooh, who said it's true
That the growing only happens on your own?
They don't know me and you
You don't ever have to leave
If to change is what you need
You can change right next to me
When you're high, I'll take the lows
You can ebb and I can flow
And we'll take it slow
And grow as we go
Grow as we go
Grow as we go
Grow as we go
I don't know who we'll become
I can't promise it's not written in the stars
But I believe that when it's done
We're gonna see that it was better
That we grew up together
Tell me you don't wanna leave
'Cause if change is what you need
You can change right next to me
When you're high, I'll take the lows
You can ebb and I can flow
We'll take it slow
And grow as we go
Grow as we go
Grow as we go
Grow as we go

You got a fast car
I want a ticket to anywhere
Maybe we make a deal
Maybe together we can get somewhere
Anyplace is better
Starting from zero got nothing to lose
Maybe we'll make something
But me myself I got nothing to prove
You got a fast car
And I got a plan to get us out of here
I been working at the convenience store
Managed to save just a little bit of money
We won't have to drive too far
Just across the border and into the city
You and I can both get jobs
And finally see what it means to be living
You see my old man's got a problem
He live with the bottle that's the way it is
He says his body's too old for working
I say his body's too young to look like his
My mama went off and left him
She wanted more from life than he could give
I said somebody's got to take care of him
So I quit school and that's what I did
You got a fast car
But is it fast enough so we can fly away?
We gotta make a decision
We leave tonight or live and die this way
See I remember we were driving, driving in your car
The speed so fast I felt like I was drunk
City lights lay out before us
And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder
And I had a feeling that I belonged
I had a feeling I could be someone, be someone, be someone
You got a fast car
We go cruising entertain ourselves
You still ain't got a job
And I work in the market as a checkout girl
I know things will get better
You'll find work and I'll get promoted
We'll move out of the shelter
Buy a bigger house and live in the suburbs
See I remember we were driving, driving in your car
The speed so fast I felt like I was drunk
City lights lay out before us
And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder
And I had a feeling that I belonged
I had a feeling I could be someone, be someone, be someone
You got a fast car
And I got a job that pays all our bills
You stay out drinking late at the bar
See more of your friends than you do of your kids
I'd always hoped for better
Thought maybe together you and me'd find it
I got no plans I ain't going nowhere
So take your fast car and keep on driving
See I remember when we were driving, driving in your car
The speed so fast I felt like I was drunk
City lights lay out before us
And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder
And I had a feeling that I belonged
I had a feeling I could be someone, be someone, be someone
You got a fast car
But is it fast enough so you can fly away?
You gotta make a decision
Leave tonight or live and die this way

Step out the front door like a ghost
Into the fog where no one notices the
Contrast of white on white.
And in between the moon and you the angels
Get a better view of the crumbling
Difference between wrong and right.
I walk in the air, between the rain,
Through myself and back again where? I Don't know
Maria says she's dying, through the door
I hear her crying why? I don't know
Round here we always stand up straight
Round here something radiates
Maria came from Nashville with a suitcase in her hand
She said she'd like to
Meet a boy who looks like Elvis.
She walks along the edge of where the ocean meets
The land just like she's
Walking on a wire in the circus.
She parks her car outside of my house
And takes her clothes off, says she's
Close to understanding Jesus.
She knows she's more than just a little misunderstood,
She has trouble acting
Normal when she's nervous.
Round here we're carving out our names
Round here we all look the same
Round here we talk just like lions, but we sacrifice like lambs
Round here she's slipping through my hands
Oh sleeping children better run like the wind,
Out of the lightning dream
Mama's little baby better get herself in out of the lightning
She says "it's only in my head."
She says "shh, I know it's only in my head."
But the girl on the car in the parking lot says
"man, you should try to take a
Shot. can't you see my walls are crumblin'"
Then she looks up at the building
And says she's thinkin' of jumping. she says
She's tired of life, she must be tired of something.
Round here she's always on my mind
Round here (hey man)i got lots of time
Round here we're never sent to bed early and nobody makes us wait
Round here we stay up very, very, very, very late.
I can't see nothing, nothing round here (oh)
Won't you catch me if I'm falling?
Won't you catch me if I'm falling?
Won't you catch me 'cause I'm falling down on you.
See I'm under the gun round here
Oh man I said I'm under the gun round here
And I can't see nothing, nothing round here.

When you were here before
Couldn't look you in the eye
You're just like an angel
Your skin makes me cry
You float like a feather
In a beautiful world
I wish I was special
You're so fuckin' special
But I'm a creep
I'm a weirdo
What the hell am I doing here?
I don't belong here
I don't care if it hurts
I wanna have control
I want a perfect body
I want a perfect soul
I want you to notice
When I'm not around
You're so fuckin' special
I wish I was special
But I'm a creep
I'm a weirdo
What the hell am I doing here?
I don't belong here, oh, oh
She's running out the door
She's running out
She run, run, run, run
Run
Whatever makes you happy
Whatever you want
You're so fuckin' special
I wish I was special
But I'm a creep
I'm a weirdo
What the hell am I doing here?
I don't belong here
But I'm a creep
I'm a weirdo
What the hell am I doing here?
I don't belong here
I don't belong here

Take On Me(A-Ha Cover)
03:53

We're talking away
I don't know what
I'm to say I'll say it anyway
Today's another day to find you
Shying away
I'll be coming for your love, okay?
Take on me (take on me)
Take me on (take on me)
I'll be gone
In a day or two
So needless to say
I'm odds and ends
But I'll be stumbling away
Slowly learning that life is okay
Say after me
It's no better to be safe than sorry
Take on me (take on me)
Take me on (take on me)
I'll be gone
In a day or two

Heading down south to the land of the pines
I'm thumbing my way into North Caroline
Staring up the road and pray to God I see headlights
I made it down the coast in seventeen hours
Picking me a bouquet of dogwood flowers
And I'm a-hopin' for Raleigh, I can see my baby tonight
So rock me momma like a wagon wheel
Rock me momma any way you feel
Hey, momma rock me
Rock me momma like the wind and the rain
Rock me momma like a south bound train
Hey, momma rock me
I'm running from the cold up in New England
I was born to be a fiddler in an old time string band
My baby plays a guitar, I pick a banjo now
Oh, north country winters keep a-getting me down
Lost my money playing poker so I had to leave town
But I ain't turning back to living that old life no more
So rock me momma like a wagon wheel
Rock me momma any way you feel
Hey, momma rock me
Hey, rock me momma like the wind and the rain
Rock me momma like a south bound train
Hey, momma rock me
Walkin' to the south out of Roanoke
Caught a trucker out of Philly had a nice long toke
But he's a heading west from the Cumberland gap
To Johnson City, Tennessee
And I gotta get a move on before the sun
I hear my baby calling my name and I know that she's the only one
And if I die in Raleigh at least I will die free
So rock me momma like a wagon wheel
Rock me momma any way you feel
Hey, momma rock me
Oh, rock me momma like the wind and the rain
Rock me momma like a south bound train
Hey momma rock me
Oh, so rock me momma like a wagon wheel
Rock me momma any way you feel
Hey, momma rock me (mama rock me, mama rock me)
Rock me momma like the wind and the rain
Rock me momma like a south bound train
Hey, ey yeah momma rock me (you can rock me, rock me)

It's a little bit funny, this feelin' 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 travelin' show
Oh, 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 forgettin', 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
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 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

One More Night
02:55

You've got a hold on my heart
And I hope you never let go cause
You keep on driving me mad
with your hair and that stare that you're shooting my way
It's been too long since we've had a night of dancing and I just can't wait no more
I can't go one more night without you
Leaning in hearing the beat of my heart
And I'll leave the dancing to you
If you'll just leave yourself with me
Baby baby baby what's on your mind
Cause I'm wondering whether you'll be nice or if you'll be kind
And darlin what else would you do
With that new dress and those brand new shoes
I lie awake missing your touch
Babygirl I don’t know if you know
I miss you this much
All I ask is one more night of you here by my side if you promise me that you’ll agree then I’ll be satisfied
I can't wait one more day
So baby dear come over here and just let me say
I can't go one more night without you
Leaning in hearing the beat of my heart
And I'll leave the dancing to you
If you'll just leave yourself with me
Tonight

Ya dime si quieres estar conmigo o si mejor me voy
Tus besos dicen que tú sí me quieres pero tus palabras no
Y al chile yo hasta moriría por ti pero dices que no
No eres directa neta ya me estás cansando se concreta por favor
Y en la noche que las estrellas hablen yo pienso en ti mi amor
Que me hiciste, de mi cabeza no sales
Y no lo digo por mamón
Si me dices para ti que soy, no dudaré en hacerte tan feliz
Eres tan especial para mí
Dime por qué me haces sufrir
Yo te olvidaré desde las Fuentes de Ortiz
Soy inseguro cuando dices que me quieres porque creo que no
Como bebé caigo pero sí redondito en tu trampa amor
Ya dime si tú me quieres por favor
Y he sufrido y me he empedado tanto por tu amor
Y en la noche en que las estrellas salen
Yo pienso en ti mi amor
Qué me hiciste, de mi cabeza no sales
Y no lo digo por mamón
Si me dices para ti quién soy No durare en hacerte tan feliz,
eres especial para mí
Dime por qué me haces sufrir
Yo te olvidaré desde las Fuentes de Ortiz
