Standing With You - Guy Sebastian
The more I tell you you can do this
The more you tell yourself you're useless
Any advice right now is fruitless
You're somewhere only you can go
I won't pretend to know, so
Instead of telling you you'll be alright
I'm just gon' be that someone by your side
Yeah let me be that distant satellite
A constant in the sky
'Cause I'm standing with you tonight
Yeah I will be that voice in your ear
Quietly destroying your fear
You won't even know that I'm here
But I'm standing with you tonight
Oh I will be the pill for your pain
Until the clouds have run out of rain
Close enough but just out of sight
I'm standing with you tonight
Your head is full and yet it's hollow
Don't even think about tomorrow
So if you let me I will follow
Oh if you're gonna go
At least you're gonna know
Instead of telling you you'll be alright
I'm just gon' be that someone by your side
Oh let me be that distant satellite
A constant in the sky
I'm standing with you tonight
Yeah I will be that voice in your ear
Quietly destroying your fear
You won't even know that I'm here
But I'm standing with you tonight
Oh I will be the pill for your pain
Until the clouds have run out of rain
Close enough but just out of sight
I'm standing with you
I know I may not say the right thing
Let me tell you one thing
Yeah 'cause there is one thing
You're wrong about
This world would not be a better place
I don't wanna lose you now
Yeah I will be that voice in your ear
Quietly destroying your fear
Oh you won't even know that I'm here
I'm standing with you tonight
Oh I will be the pill for your pain
Until the clouds have run out of rain
Close enough but just out of sight
I'm standing with you tonight
Oh tonight
I'm standing with you tonight
I'm standing with you tonight.
Telephones - Vacations
Rise with the morning
You call to me
My thoughts are crawling
You're all I see
I wish I could live without you
But you're a part of me
Wherever I go
You'll always be next to me
Fall into the night
As I gaze into you
Shine so bright
It's all I do
I wish I could live without you
But you're a part of me
Wherever I go
You'll always be next to me
You'll always be next to me
You'll always be next to me
You'll always be next to me
You'll always be next to me
Flame Trees - Cold Chisel
Kids out driving Saturday afternoon just pass me by
And I'm just savouring familiar sights
We share some history, this town and I
And I can't stop that long forgotten feeling of her
Try to book a room and stay tonight
Number one is to find some friends to say "you're doing well"
After all this time you boys look just the same
Number two is the happy hour at one of two hotels
Settle in to play "do you remember so and so?
Number three is never say her name
Oh the flame trees will blind the weary driver
And there's nothing else could set fire to this town
There's no change, there's no pace Everything within its place
Just makes it harder to believe that she won't be around
But oh who needs that sentiment, anyway
Takes more than just a memory to make me cry
And I'm happy just to sit here a table with old friends
And see which one of us can tell the biggest lies
And there's a girl falling in love near where the pianola stands
With a young local factory auto worker just holding hands
And I'm wondering if he'll go or if he'll stay
Do you remember, nothing stopped us on the field
In our day
Oh the flame trees will blind the weary driver
And there's nothing else could set fire to this town
There's no change, there's no pace
Everything within its place
Just makes it harder to believe that she won't be around
Oh the flame trees will blind the weary driver
And there's nothing else could set fire to this town
There's no change, there's no pace
Everything within its place
Just makes it harder to believe that she won't be around
She Looks So Perfect - 5SOS
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Simmer down, simmer down
They say we're too young nowTo amount to anything else
But look around
We've worked too damn hard for this
Just to give it up now
If you don't swim, you'll drown
But don't move, honey
You look so perfect standing there
When I look I see you everywhere
And I know now that I'm so down
Your lipstick stain is a work of art
I got your name tattooed in an arrowed heart
And I know now that I'm so down, hey
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Let's get out, let's get out
'Cause this deadbeat town's only here just to keep us down
While I was out
I found myself alone just thinking
If I showed up with a plane ticket
And a shiny diamond ring with your name on it
Would you wanna run away too?'
Cause all I really want is you
She looks so perfect standing there
When I look I see you everywhere.
And I know now that I'm so down
I made a mixtape straight out of '94
You’ve got your favourite sneakers kicked off by the door.
And I know now that I'm so down, hey
Hey, hey, hey, hey
You look so perfect standing there
When I look I see you everywhere
And I know now that I'm so down
Your lipstick shade is a work of artI got your name tattooed in an arrowed heart
And I know now that I'm so down
Hey, hey, hey, hey
You look so perfect standing there
When I look I see you everywhere.
And I know now that I'm so down, hey
Your lipstick shade is a work of art
I got your name tattooed in an arrowed heart
And I know now that I'm so down
This City - Sam Fischer
I've been seeing lonely people in crowded rooms
Covering their old heartbreaks with new tattoos
It's all about smoke screens and cigarettes
Looking through low lights at silhouettes
But all I see is lonely people in crowded rooms
This city's gonna break my heart
This city's gonna love me then leave me alone
This city's got me chasing stars
It's been a couple months since I felt like I'm home
Am I getting closer to knowing where I belong?
This city's gonna break my heart
She's always gonna break your heart, oh
I remember mornings when my head didn't hurt
And I remember nights when art didn't feel like work
She wakes up at noon and she's out 'til three
She leaves her perfume all over me
But I remember mornings when my head didn't hurt
Oh, this city's gonna break my heart (it's gonna break my heart)
This city's gonna love me then leave me alone
This city's got me chasing stars (got me chasing stars)
It's been a couple months since I felt like I'm home (oh)
Am I getting closer to knowing where I belong?
This city's gonna break my heart
She's always gonna break your heart
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, oh
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
She got a hold on me
She got me wrapped 'round her finger
She got a hold on me
She got me wrapped 'round her finger
This city's gonna break my heart (oh, yeah)
This city's gonna love me then leave me alone (it's gonna love me then leave me alone)
This city's got me chasing stars (oh)
It's been a couple months since I felt like I'm home
Am I getting closer to knowing where I belong?
This city's gonna break my heart (hey, yeah)
She's always gonna break your heart
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, yeah
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, oh
This city's gonna break my heart, hey
She's always gonna break your heart
Clementine - Grentperez
I've been changin'
But the burnin' stays the same
What can I do to tame the heat of this fire?
Forever savin'
The remnants of a love
Like ancient stories told from another time
Eternally painted on my mind
Mmm
Color it gray
Until I forget you
Like I never met you
My dearest Clementine
Throw it away
But close enough to you
'Cause although I hate you
I will still fall in love, my Clementine
Every time, mmm
And if you're fadin'
Then honey I'll be fadin' too
Darling, I don't even know who I am without you
Forever waitin'
Times never wasted and still
I find myself growin' old over you
You came in a dream
You touched the depths of my mind
Oh, no, no, no
Color it gray
Until I forget you
Like I never met you
My dearest Clementine
Throw it away
But close enough to you
'Cause although I hate you
I will still fall in love, my Clementine
Every time, always
No matter how hard I try
My Clementine, every time
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Color it gray
Until I forget you
Like I never met you
My dearest, my dearest Clementine
Color it gray
Until I forget you
Like I never met you (oh, oh)
My dearest Clementine (my dearest Clementine)
Throw it away
But close enough to you
'Cause although I hate you ('cause although I hate you)
I will still fall in love, my Clementine (I'll still fall in love)
Every time, always
No matter how hard I try
My Clementine, every time
Mmm, mmm
You're always on my mind
Somebody That I Used To Know - Goyte
Now and then I think of when we were together
Like when you said you felt so happy you could die
Told myself that you were right for me
But felt so lonely in your company
But that was love, and it's an ache I still remember
You can get addicted to a certain kind of sadness
Like resignation to the end, always the end
So when we found that we could not make sense
Well, you said that we would still be friends
But I'll admit that I was glad it was over
But you didn't have to cut me off
Make out like it never happened and that we were nothing
And I don't even need your love
But you treat me like a stranger, and that feels so rough
No, you didn't have to stoop so low
Have your friends collect your records and then change your number
I guess that I don't need that, though
Now you're just somebody that I used to know
Now you're just somebody that I used to know
Now you're just somebody that I used to know
Now and then I think of all the times you screwed me over
But had me believing it was always something that I'd done
And I don't wanna live that way
Reading into every word you say
You said that you could let it go
And I wouldn't catch you hung up on somebody that you used to know
But you didn't have to cut me off
Make out like it never happened and that we were nothing (aah-ooh)
And I don't even need your love (ooh)
But you treat me like a stranger, and that feels so rough (aah)
No, you didn't have to stoop so low (ooh)
Have your friends collect your records and then change your number (aah)
I guess that I don't need that, though
Now you're just somebody that I used to know
Somebody (I used to know)
Somebody (now you're just somebody that I used to know)
Somebody (I used to know)
Somebody (now you're just somebody that I used to know)
I used to know
That I used to know
I used to know
Somebody
Zebra - John Butler Trio
I could be loud man, I could be silent
I could be young man or I could be old
I could be a gentleman, I could be violent
I could turn hot man or I could be cold
I could be just like the calm before the storm boy,
Waiting for all hell yeah to break loose
I could be innocent or I could be guilty
Doesn't mean that I don't believe in no noose
So I'm singin'
I could be rich like a wandering Gypsy
I could be poor like a fat wallet lost
I could be first man or I could come last
It's not who breaks the ribbon boy it's how you get across
I could be red blue black and white sunset
Or darkest at day boy or brightest at night
I could be the sun boy I could be the moon
I'm made up from the stars boy I'm shining so bright
So I'm singin'
I could be asleep boy or I could be awake
I could be alive and I be the walking dead
I could be ignorant or I could be informed
I could lead my life man or I could be led
I could be anything I put my mind to boy
All I gotta do is give myself half a chance
I can bring love back into my life
And share it with the world if I got some balance
So I'm singin'
Dancing All Alone - Clinton Kane
I was hardly in the back of the bus and I couldn't figure it out
I was nineteen maybe twenty of us
Felt like I could just do without
It's like a bad dream
Tryna keep my eyes shut and I'm starting to doubt
If I'll find lightning in a bottle
'Cause I've never had anyone
So, if I don't stay, will it matter?
'Cause there's no way to break the pattern
And I don't wanna feel alone
My past is not my fault
But my world keeps on breaking
It's always been the same
Half-drunk, friends feeling like strangers
Nothing ever changes
I know I'm forever dancing all alone
I've been running before I knew how to walk, when will I ever stop?
Always five feet too far from the ones who said
They'd love me for who I was
And the silence of the beat of my heart has never been any louder
And it's frightening if I always end up feeling no one's around
So, if I don't stay, will it matter?
'Cause there's no way to break the pattern
And I don't wanna feel alone
My past is not my fault
But my world keeps on breaking
It's always been the same
NOT-drunk, friends feeling like strangers
Nothing ever changes
I know I'm forever dancing all alone
Dancing all alone
Dancing all alone
Back In Black - ACDC
Back in black
I hit the sack
I've been too long, I'm glad to be back
Yes, I'm let loose
From the noose
That's kept me hanging about
I've been looking at the sky
'Cause it's gettin' me high
Forget the hearse 'cause I never die
I got nine lives
Cat's eyes
Abusin' every one of them and running wild
'Cause I'm back
Yes, I'm back
Well, I'm back
Yes, I'm back
Well, I'm back, back
Well, I'm back in black
Yes, I'm back in black
Back in the back
Of a Cadillac
Number one with a bullet, I'm a power pack
Yes, I'm in a bang
With a gang
They've got to catch me if they want me to hang
'Cause I'm back on the track
And I'm beatin' the flack
Nobody's gonna get me on another rap
So look at me now
I'm just makin' my play
Don't try to push your luck, just get out of my way
'Cause I'm back
Yes, I'm back
Well, I'm back
Yes, I'm back
Well, I'm back, back
Well, I'm back in black
Yes, I'm back in black
Well, I'm back, yes, I'm back
Well, I'm back, yes, I'm back
Well, I'm back, back
Well, I'm back in black
Yes, I'm back in black
Oh, yeah
Oh, yeah
Take my love
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, yeah, yeah, ooh, yeah
Well, I'm back (I'm back)
Back (I'm back)
Back (I'm back)
Back (I'm back)
Back (I'm back)
Back
Back in black
Yes, I'm back in black
I've hit the sack
Wish You Well - Bernard Fanning
Up so early feel so bright
Didn't get much sleep last night
Freight train rattled through my head
Whistle blowing love is dead
Is dead
Heart attacked by fear and doubt
won't be long till the truth comes out
first impressions never lie
Lover's bonds they hold so fast
Restless future burning bright
The past is holding on so tight
Never heard the warning bell
And I just want to wish you well
I just want to wish you well
Welcome swallows dip and swing
Take their cue from the slightest thing
Rolling fog into my room
Why did you give up on me so soon?
So soon
Restless future burning bright
The past is holding on so tight
Never heard the warning bell
And I just want to wish you well
I just want to wish you well
I just want to wish you well
I just want to wish you well
Why did you give up on me so soon?
Did you give up on me so soon?
I just want to wish you well
I just want to wish you well
Elastic Heart - Sia
And another one bites the dust
Oh, why can I not conquer love?
And I might've thought that we were one
Wanted to fight this war without weapons
And I wanted it, and I wanted it bad
But there were so many red flags
Now another one bites the dust
Yeah, let's be clear I'll trust no one
You did not break me
I'm still fighting for peace
I've got thick skin and an elastic heart
But your blade it might be too sharp
I'm like a rubber band until you pull too hard
I may snap and I move fast
But you won't see me fall apart
'Cause I've got an elastic heart
I've got an elastic heart
Yeah, I've got an elastic heart
And I will stay up through the night
Let's be clear, won't close my eyes
And I know that I can survive
I'll walk through fire to save my life
And I want it, I want my life so bad
I'm doing everything I can
Then another one bites the dust
It's hard to lose a chosen one
You did not break me
I'm still fighting for peace
I've got thick skin and an elastic heart
But your blade it might be too sharp
I'm like a rubber band until you pull too hard
I may snap and I move fast
But you won't see me fall apart
'Cause I've got an elastic heart
I've got thick skin and an elastic heart
But your blade it might be too sharp
I'm like a rubber band until you pull too hard
I may snap and I move fast
But you won't see me fall apart
'Cause I've got an elastic heart
I've got thick skin and an elastic heart
But your blade it might be too sharp
I'm like a rubber band until you pull too hard
And I may snap and I move fast
But you won't see me fall apart
'Cause I've got an elastic heart
I've got an elastic heart.
Cherry Wine - Grentperez
Why you standing all by yourself?
Those shoes were made for dancing with someone else
Why don't we move over to that empty space?
I bet you 20 bucks I'll put a smile on your face
I know a place where we can
Dance the night away
Baby, we could try to
Make the world spin slower
We could take our time and
Get to know each other over cherry wine, huh
Well, it's so soon to give up on tonight, uh
I haven't had the chance to show you my moves and I
I think you'd like to see why they would call me Mr. Dynamite
I can show while we dance the night away
Baby, we could try to
Make the world spin slower
We could take our time and
Get to know each other over cherry wine
I've been waiting on this dance
Floor made for two babe
Won't you show me just what you can do?
I don't wanna waste your time
So please just have me for tonight? Huh
Dance
Yeah, I said let's dance the night away
Baby, we could try to
Make the world spin slower
We could take our time and
Get to know each other over cherry wine
Oh, I, dance the night away
Baby we could try to
Make the world spin slower
We could take our time, uh
Know it's too soon to say you're mine
Let's have a little drink tonight
And get to know each other over cherry wine.
You’re The Voice - John Farnham
We have the chance to turn the pages over
We can write what we want to write
We gotta make ends meet, before we get much older
We're all someone's daughter
We're all someone's son
How long can we look at each other
Down the barrel of a gun?
You're the voice, try and understand it
Make a noise and make it clear
Oh, whoa
We're not gonna sit in silence
We're not gonna live with fear
Oh, whoa
This time, we know we all can stand together
With the power to be powerful
Believing we can make it better
Ooh, we're all someone's daughter
We're all someone's son
How long can we look at each other
Down the barrel of a gun?
You're the voice, try and understand it
Make a noise and make it clear
Oh, whoa
We're not gonna sit in silence
We're not gonna live with fear
Oh, whoa
Ooh, we're all someone's daughter
We're all someone's son
How long can we look at each other
Down the barrel of a gun?
You're the voice, try and understand it
Make the noise and make it clear
Oh, whoa
We're not gonna sit in silence
We're not gonna live with fear
Oh, whoa
You're the voice, try and understand it
Make a noise and make it clear
Oh, whoa
We're not gonna sit in silence
We're not gonna live with fear
Oh, whoa
You're the voice, try and understand it
Make a noise and make it clear
Oh, whoa
We're not gonna sit in silence (we're not gonna sit in silence)
We're not gonna live with fear (we're not gonna live with fear)
Oh, whoa
