Bryan Adams- Don't Give It Up

~*Don’t Give It Up*~

(ghost track on 'the best of me' album) 

Don't give it up 

Don't give it up 

Don't worry if the sun don't shine 

You've seen it before, you don't need to worry 

Every day's an uphill climb, nothing has changed 

Believe me when I tell ya 

Don't give it up 

Don't give it up 

Don't give up--you know it's true 

Gotta do what you wanna do 

Oh yeah 

Don't give it up--you don't have to 

Gotta do what you wanna do 

Oh yeah 

{whole thing repeats again}

Bryan Adams- I Was Only Dreamin'

~*I Was Only Dreamin'*~

She left her shoes out on the beach 

She left my dreams just out of reach 

She left her footprints in the sand 

She was a bird right in the hand 

I met a girl that made me laugh 

She left a faded photograph 

I thought I heard a siren song 

I sang along but I was... 

I was only dreamin' 

I was only dreamin' 

Visions in my head 

Talkin in my sleep 

Turning in my bed 

Life was so complete 

Her shoes were on the beach 

But I was only dreamin' 

I met a girl that talked in rhyme 

I met a girl who took her time 

I saw the ocean in her eyes 

I saw myself unrecognized 

And all the stars up in the sky 

Fell down like rain and made me cry 

I held the world right in my hands 

I held her close but I was...

Bryan Adams- Here I Am

~*Here I Am*~

Here I am 

This is me 

There's nowhere else on earth I'd rather be 

Here I am 

It's just me and you 

Tonight we make our dreams come true 

It's a new world 

It's a new start 

It's alive with the beating of young hearts 

It's a new day 

It's a new plan 

I've been waiting for you 

Here I am 

Here we are 

We've just begun 

And after all this time 

Our time has come 

Yeah here we are 

Still goin' strong 

Right here in the place where we belong 

Oh it's a new world 

It's a new start 

It's alive with the beating of young hearts 

It's a new day 

And a new plan 

I've been waiting for you 

Here I am 

Here I am 

Yeah 

Here I am 

This is me 

There's nowhere else on earth I'd rather be 

Here I am 

It's just me and you 

Tonight we make our dreams come true 

Oh it's a new world 

It's a new start 

It's alive with the beating of young hearts 

It's a new day 

It's a new plan 

I've been waiting for you 

Oh it's a new world 

It's a new start 

It's alive with the beating of young hearts 

It's a new day 

It's a new plan 

I've been waiting for you 

(Waiting, waiting waiting) 

Here I am 

Here I am 

Right next to you 

Suddenly the world is all brand new 

Here I am 

Here I am 

Where I'm gonna stay 

Now there's nothin' standing in our way 

Here I am 

This is me

Bryan Adams- Brothers Under The Sun

~*Brothers Under The Sun*~

I had a dream 

Of the wide open praire 

I had a dream 

Of pale morning sky 

I had a dream 

That we flew on golden wings 

We were the same 

Just the same 

You and I 

Follow your heart 

Little child of the west wind 

Follow the voice 

That's calling you home 

Follow your dreams 

But always remember me 

I am your brother 

Under the sun 

We are like birds of a feather 

We are two hearts thrown together 

We will be forever as one 

My brother under the sun 

Whenever you hear 

The wind in the canyon 

If ever you see 

The buffalo run 

Where ever you go 

I'll be there beside you 

'cause you are my brother 

My brother under the sun 

We are like birds of a feather 

We are two hearts joined together 

We will be forever as one 

My brother under the sun 

Under the sun 

Under the sun 

My brother under the sun

Bryan Adams- Back To You

~*Back To You*~

I've been down - I've been beat

I've been so tired - that I could not speak

I've been so lost that I could not see

I wanted things that were out of reach

Then I found you and you helped me through

Yeah you showed me what to do

And that's why I'm comin' back to you... yeah

Like a star that guides a ship across the ocean

That's how your love will take me home back to you

And if I wish upon that star - someday I'll be where you are 

I know that day is coming soon - yeah, I'm coming back to you.

You've been alone, but ya did not show it

You've been in pain, but I did not know it

Let me do what I needed to - you were there when I needed you

Mighta let you down, mighta messed you round

But ya never changed your point of view

And that's why I'm comin' back to you... yeah

Like a star that guides a ship across the ocean

That's how your love will take me home back to you

And if I wish upon that star - someday I'll be where you are 

I know that day is coming soon - yeah, I'm coming back to you.

Mighta let you down, mighta messed you round

But ya never changed your point of view

And that's why I'm comin' back to you... yeah

Like a star that guides a ship across the ocean

That's how your love will take me home back to you

And if I wish upon that star - someday I'll be where you are 

And I know that day is coming soon - oooh, I'm coming back to you.

I'm coming back to you

I'm coming back to you

I'm coming back to you

That day is coming soon

I'm coming back to you....... yeah

Cheryl Cole- Better To Lie [Messy Little Raindrops]

~*Better To Lie*~

(feat. August Rigo)

Yeah yeah yeah yeah woah woah woah oh 

Said it's better better, 

I never should've let her know 

It was better to lie. 

I'm screaming, 

He's talking over, 

I've asked him twice, 

Says he don't know her, 

I raise a fist, 

He grabs my wrist, 

Ask for the truth, 

And this is what I get, 

I only asked him 

Who called your cellular? 

He said he don't know, 

But yeah it was a girl. 

And it's killing, 

Like nothing of it, 

Now I'm tripping, 

I'm yelling up in public like, 

Ohhhhh 

Can you please just be honest? 

You tell me some stories but I just don't want to know, 

No I just don't believe it, 

And all I want to do is keep screaming, 

And he's like, 

Please calm down 

(Baby, baby) 

Because you're talking too loud 

I'm hollering, 

You won't let the truth come out. 

So please calm down 

Baby, because you're firing too high (too high) 

Should I keep the truth inside? 

So maybe it was better to lie 

Said it's better better, 

I never should've let her know 

It was better to lie. 

Said it's better better, 

I never should've let her know 

It was better to lie. 

I walk away, 

So he comes after, 

I'm running quick, 

But he runs faster. 

So explanation that I don't need, 

He tells me "Baby, can you sit down and breathe?" 

Freaking out, hysterical, 

Said you shouldn't lie 

Would've been better off 

So silly me thinking you're a good guy 

Maybe now you know not to lie 

Ohhhhh 

Can you please just be honest? 

You tell me some stories but I just don't want to know, 

No I just don't believe it, 

And all I want to do is keep screaming, 

And he's like, 

Please calm down 

(Baby, baby) 

Because you're talking too loud 

I'm hollering, 

You won't let the truth come out. 

So please calm down 

Baby, because you're firing too high (too high) 

Should I keep the truth inside? 

So maybe it was better to lie 

Said it's better better, 

I never should've let her know 

It was better to lie. 

Said it's better better, 

I never should've let her know 

It was better to lie. 

I thought it would be better if I did you right, 

But I guess I should've told you lies, 

You're right, you're right, 

And now you're standing there telling me, 

Please calm down 

(Baby, baby) 

Because you're talking too loud 

I'm hollering, 

You won't let the truth come out. 

So please calm down 

Baby, because you're firing too high (too high) 

Should I keep the truth inside? 

So maybe it was better to lie, 

Said it's better better, 

I never should've let her know 

It was better to lie.
