"Red Light" - Jonny Lang
You sing a song While sitting at a red light You think of home While sitting at a red light Too slow to roll Put your life on hold An open path With nowhere to go You start to wonder While sitting at a red light You can run a red light Give up at a red light You break the mold When running through the tolls Speeding through your whole life A chance to breathe While sitting at a red light You look around Reflecting on your life A chance to think Am I drinking too much Should I keep going Lose the life that I love A second glance When coming to a red light You can run a red light Give up at a red light You break the mold When running through the tolls Speeding through your whole life You can run a red light Give up on your whole life You break the mold When you're running through the tolls Speeding through your whole life When things look low You've gotta keep strong Feet to the grass You've gotta walk it off THe bow's been tied Too tight to laugh Feet to the ground You've gotta walk it off You can run a red light You can run a red light Start to think Am I drinking too much SHould I keep going Lose the life that I love You can run a red light Give up at a red light You break the mold When running through the tolls Speeding through your whole life You can run a red light Give up on your whole life You break the mold When running through the tolls Speeding through your whole life You can run a red light You can run a red light You sing a song While sitting at a red light © Anthony Hamolton & Neely Dinkins Jr. |

Verse 1
The dream is fading, now I'm staring at the door I know its over cause my feet have hit the cold floor Check my reflection, I ain't feelin what I see It's no mystery Whatever happened to a passion I could live for? What became of the flame that made me feel more? And when did i forget that... Chorus I was made to love You I was made to find You I was made just for You Made to adore You I was made to love And be loved by You You were here before me You were waiting on me And you said you'd keep me Never would you leave me I was made to love and be loved by You Verse 2 The dream's alive with my eyes opened wide Back in the ring You've got me swinging for the grand prize I feel the haters is spittin vapors on my dreams But I still believe I'm reachin out, reachin up, reachin over I feel a breeze cover me called Jehovah And Daddy I'm on my way Cause I was made to love... Chorus I was made to love You I was made just for you Made to adore you I was made to love and be loved by you You were here before You were waiting on me And you said you'd keep Me never would you leave I was made to love and be loved by you Bridge Anything I would give up for You Everything, I'd give it all away (Repeat 3x) I was made to love You, I was made to love You I was made to love You, I was made to find you I was made to love You, Made just for You I was made to love You, Made just for You I was made to love You, Made just for You I was made to love You, I will love by you |

watch the sunrise from a tropic isle just remember darling all the while - you belong to me see the marketplace in old Algiers send me photographs and souvenirs just remember when a dream appears - you belong to me and I'll be so alone without you maybe you'll be lonesome too fly the ocean in a silver plane see the jungle when it's wet with rain just remember till you're home again - you belong to me oh I'll be so alone without you maybe you'll be lonesome too fly the ocean in a silver plane see the jungle when it's wet with rain just remember till you're home again - you belong to me |

Last Kiss
Where, oh where, can my baby be? The Lord took her away from me She’s gone to heaven, so I’ve got to be good So I can see my baby when I leave this world We were out on a date in my daddy’s car We hadn’t driven very far There in the road, straight ahead A car was stalled, the engine was dead I couldn’t stop, so I swerved to the right I’ll never forget the sound that night The screamin tires, the bustin glass The painful scream that I heard last Oh where, oh where, can my baby be? The Lord took her away from me She’s gone to heaven, so I’ve got to be good So I can see my baby when I leave this world When I woke up the rain was pourin down There were people standin all around Something warm flowing through my eyes But somehow I found my baby that night I lifted her head, she looked at me and said "Hold me darling, just a little while" I held her close, I kissed her our last kiss I found the love that I knew I had missed Well now she’s gone Even though I hold her tight I lost my love, my life, that night Oh where, oh where, can my baby be? The Lord took her away from me She’s gone to heaven, so I’ve got to be good So I can see my baby when I leave this world. |

Blue Velvet
Blue Velvet She wore blue velvet Bluer than velvet was the night Softer than satin was the light From the stars She wore blue velvet Bluer than velvet were her eyes Warmer than May her tender sighs Love was ours Ours a love I held tightly Feeling the rapture grow Like a flame burning brightly But when she left, gone was the glow of Blue velvet But in my heart there'll always be Precious and warm, a memory Through the years And I still can see blue velvet Through my tears She wore blue velvet But in my heart there'll always be Precious and warm, a memory Through the years And I still can see blue velvet Through my tears |

I'd like to dedicate this song to my mom
_Cada Vez Que Digo Adiós_ Nena no te pongas mal, sabés que esto cambiará. Yo luche por tanto tiempo por lograr lo que ahora tengo. Que es muy grande la ciudad si no estás bien convencido que querés llegar muy alto aunque sea duro el camino. Y tenés que dejar a la gente que amás y a ella que te mira con tristeza y alegría y te dice: "que te vaya bien mi amor... yo te espero, siempre te esperaré..." Por favor no tengas miedo vos me vas a sostener. Y cuando todo sea adverso pensando en vos voy a estar muy bien. Para cargar sobre mis hombros a este mundo que al fin pesa por la envidia y el odio de la gente que no puede ser feliz. Y tenés que dejar a la gente que amás y a ella que te mira con tristeza y alegría y te dice: "que te vaya bien mi amor... yo te espero, siempre te esperaré..." Tengo que pensar en otra cosa. Es hora de cambiar el rumbo. El mundo está girando locamente y yo ya estoy cansado de estar tan cuerdo. Y tenés que dejar a la gente que amás y a ella que te mira con tristeza y alegría y te dice: "que te vaya bien mi amor yo te espero, siempre te esperaré. Vos me vas a sostener ... I miss you and i love you mom And i always will |

T2 featuring Jodie Aysha - Heartbroken
Sitting here at home, Thinking ’bout you all alone. Wondering where it all went wrong, Got a confession to make… Since you made me happier, Now all I can do is hurt. When you left you took my heart, Got a confession to make… I’m heartbroken .. without your love, I’m heartbroken .. yes, I’ve had enough, I’m heartbroken, I don’t know what to say. I’ve never felt this way. I’m heartbroken .. without your love, I’m heartbroken .. yes, I’ve had enough, I’m heartbroken, I don’t know what to say. I’ve never felt this way. We had something so true, I realized I meant nothing to you. I guess you thought I was your fool, Got a confession to make… Now I realize the truth, I know i mean nothing more to you. It’s just the way I was attracted to you, Got a confession to make… I’m heartbroken .. without your love, I’m heartbroken .. yes, I’ve had enough, I’m heartbroken, I don’t know what to say. I’ve never felt this way. I’m heartbroken .. without your love, I’m heartbroken .. yes, I’ve had enough, I’m heartbroken, I don’t know what to say. I’ve never felt this way. |

One! Two! Three! To every broken heart in here Love was once a part, but now it's disappeared She told me that it's all a part of the choices that your making Even when you think you're right You have to give to take But there's still tomorrow Forget the sorrow And I can be on the last train home Watch it pass the day As it fades away No more time to care No more time, today But we sing If we're going nowhere Yeah we sing If it's not enough And we sing Sing without a reason To ever fall in love I wonder if you're listening Picking up on the signals Sent back from within Sometimes it feels like I don't really know whats going on Time and time again it seems like everything is wrong in here But there's still tomorrow Forget the sorrow And I can be on the last train home Watch it pass the day As it fades away No more time to care No more time, today But we sing If we're going nowhere Yeah we sing If it's not enough And we sing Sing without a reason To ever fall in love Well we sing if we're going nowhere Yeah we sing if it's not enough And we sing Sing without a reason to ever fall in love But we sing If we're going no where Yeah we sing If it's not enough And we sing Sing with out a reason to never fall in love To never fall in love again |

Nothing Better
Will someone please call a surgeon Who can crack my ribs and repair this broken heart That you're deserting for better company I can't accept that it's over... And I will block the door like a goalie tending the net In the third quarter of a tied-game rivalry So just say how to make it right And I swear I'll do my best to comply Tell me am I right to think that there could be nothing better Than making you my bride and slowly growing old together? I feel i must interject here... You're getting carried away feeling sorry for yourself With these revisions and gaps in history So let me help you remember. I've made charts and graphs that should finally make it clear. I've prepared a lecture on why I have to leave So please back away and let me go I can't my darling I love you so... But oh, oh... Tell me am I right to think that there could be nothing better Than making you my bride and slowly growing old together? Don't you feed me lies about some idealistic future Your heart won't heal right if you keep tearing out the sutures I know that I have made mistakes and I swear I'll never wrong you again You've got allure I can't deny, But you've had your chance so say goodbye Say goodbye |

Vanishing
People all over build on solid ground They build it up and then they tear it down Take it or leave it who cares how much it costs They'll never know how much is gone until it's lost 'til it's vanishing Think I hear thunder ain't no sign of rain Danger signs flashin' in my brain Ridin' on empty lights are turnin' red There ain't no lovin' left in this empty bed Ya it's vanishing We're sittin' on treasure call it sacred ground Why look for more babe when it's right here to be found Never gonna lose ya - ya know I'm gonna fight This thing's worth saving girl - ya know we'll make it right If it takes all night - gonna swim your sea Gonna sail your ocean - gonna shake your tree Gonna climb your mountain - gonna shine your light Wanna row your river darlin' - if it takes all night People all over build mansions in the sky They choke on smoke and watch their dreams go by When the phone stops ringin' love has surely died But the grass is greener babe on the other side Never wanna lose ya - ya know I'm gonna fight Never said it'd be easy girl - ya know we'll make it right If it takes all night - gonna swim your sea Gonna sail your ocean - gonna shake your tree Gonna climb your mountain - gonna shine your light Wanna row your river darlin' - if it takes all night You're gonna miss me when I'm gone Whatcha gonna do without a shoulder to lean on You're gonna miss me when I'm gone Never wanna lose ya - ya know we gotta fight Never said it'd be easy girl - ya know we'll get it right.. If it takes all night |

Overkill
I can't get to sleep I think about the implications Of diving in too deep And possibly the complications Especially at night I worry over situations I know I'll be alright Perhaps it's just imagination Day after day it reappears Night after night my heartbeat shows the fear Ghosts appear and fade away Alone between the sheets Only brings exasperation It's time to walk the streets Smell the desperation At least there's pretty lights And though there's little variation It nullifies the night from overkill Day after day it reappears Night after night my heartbeat shows the fear Ghosts appear and fade away Come back another day I can't get to sleep I think about the implications Of diving in too deep And possibly the complications Especially at night I worry over situations I know I'll be alright It's just overkill Day after day it reappears Night after night my heartbeat shows the fear Ghosts appear and fade away Ghosts appear and fade away Ghosts appear and fade away |

My Own Worst Enemy
Can we forget about the things I said when I was drunk? I didn't mean to call you that. I can't remember what was said or what you threw at me Please tell me,Please tell me why? My car is in the front yard And I'm sleeping with my clothes on I came in through the window last night And you're gone gone It's no surprise to me I am my own worst enemy, Cuz every now and then I kick the living sh*t out of me The smoke alarm is going off when there's a cigarette Still burning Please tell me why My car is in the front yard And I'm sleeping with my clothes on I came in through the window last night And you're gone gone Please tell me why My car is in the front yard And I'm sleeping with my clothes on I came in through the window last night It's no surprise to me I am my own worst enemy Cuz every now and then I kick the living sh*t out of me Can we forget about the the things I said when I was drunk I didn't mean to call you that |
