MAYBE I, MAYBE YOU

Scorpions

Maybe I, maybe you
Can make a change to the world
We're reaching out for a soul
That's kind of lost in the dark

Maybe I, maybe you
Can find the key to the stars
To catch the spirit of hope
To save one hopeless heart

You look up to the sky
With all those questions in mind
All you need is to hear
The voice of your heart
In a world full of pain
Someone's calling your name
Why don't we make it true
Maybe I, maybe you

Maybe I, maybe you
Are just dreaming sometimes
But the world would be cold
Without dreamers like you

Maybe I, maybe you
Are just soldiers of love
Born to carry the flame
Bringin' light to the dark

You look up to the sky
With all those questions in mind
All you need is to hear
The voice of your heart
In a world full of pain
Someone's calling your name
Why don't we make it true
Maybe I, maybe you

Have you ever really loved a woman

Bryan Adams

To understand her, you gotta know her deep inside

Then when you find yourself lyin' helpless in her arms

When you love a woman, you tell her that she's really wanted
When you love a woman, you tell her that she's the one
'Cause she needs somebody, to tell her that it's gonna last forever
So, tell me have you ever really, really, really, ever loved a woman? Yeah

To really love a woman
Let her hold you, 'til you know how she needs to be touched

When you love a woman, you tell her that she's really wanted

You know you really love a woman

When you love a woman, you tell her that she's really wanted

FLOWERS

Miley Cyrus

We were good, we were gold
Kinda dream that can't be sold
We were right 'til we weren't
Built a home and watched it burn

Mm, I didn't wanna leave you
I didn't wanna lie
Started to cry, but then remembered I

I can buy myself flowers
Write my name in the sand
Talk to myself for hours
Say things you don't understand
I can take myself dancing
And I can hold my own hand
Yeah, I can love me better than you can

Can love me better
I can love me better, baby
Can love me better
I can love me better

Paint my nails cherry red
Match the roses that you left
No remorse, no regret
I forgive every word you said

Jimmy Fallon and Meghan Trainor

It's Christmas time, my dear

FROZEN

Madonna

You only see what your eyes want to see

How can life be what you want it to be?

You're frozen

When your heart's not open

You're so consumed with how much you get

You waste your time with hate and regret

You're broken

When your heart's not open

Chorus:

Mmm, if I could melt your heart

Mmm, we'd never be apart

Mmm, give yourself to me

Mmm, you hold the key

Now there's no point in placing the blame

And you should know I suffer the same

If I lose you

My heart will be broken

Love is a bird, she needs to fly

Let all the hurt inside of you die

You're frozen

When your heart’s not open

Chorus:

( Instrumental)

You only see what your eyes want to see

How can life be what you want it to be

You're frozen

When your heart's not open

Chorus:

MONEY, MONEY, MONEY

ABBA

I work all night, I work all day to pay the bills I have to pay
Ain't it sad?
And still there never seems to be a single penny left for me
That's too bad
In my dreams, I have a plan
If I got me a wealthy man
I wouldn't have to work at all, I'd fool around and have a ball

Money, money, money must be funny
In the rich man's world
Money, money, money always sunny
In the rich man's world
Aha, all the things I could do
If I had a little money
It's a rich man's world
It's a rich man's world

A man like that is hard to find but I can't get him off my mind
Ain't it sad?
And if he happens to be free I bet he wouldn't fancy me
That's too bad
So I must leave, I'll have to go
To Las Vegas or Monaco
And win a fortune in a game, my life will never be the same

PERFECT

Ed Sheeran

I found a love for me
Darling, just dive right in
Follow my lead

I found a girl beautiful and sweet
I never knew you were the someone waiting for me

'Cause we were just kids when we fell in love

Not knowing what it was
I will not give you up this time
Darling, just kiss me slow, your heart is all I own
And in your eyes you're holding mine

Baby, I'm dancing in the dark with you between my arms
Barefoot on the grass, listening to our favourite song
When you said you looked a mess, I whispered underneath my breath
But you heard it, darling, you look perfect tonight

Well, I found a woman, stronger than anyone I know
She shares my dreams, I hope that someday I'll share her home
I found a love, to carry more than just my secrets
To carry love, to carry children of our own
We are still kids, but we're so in love
Fighting against all odds
I know we'll be alright this time

Darling, just hold my hand
Be my girl, I'll be your man
I see my future in your eyes

Baby, I'm dancing in the dark, with you between my arms
Barefoot on the grass, listening to our favourite song
When I saw you in that dress, looking so beautiful
I don't deserve this, darling, you look perfect tonight

Baby, I'm dancing in the dark, with you between my arms
Barefoot on the grass, listening to our favourite song
I have faith in what I see
Now I know/ I have met/ an angel in person
And she looks perfect
I don't deserve this
You look perfect tonight

JUST THE WAY YOU ARE

Billy Joel

Don't go changing to try and please me
You never let me down before, mmm
Don't imagine you're too familiar
And I don't see you anymore

I would not leave you in times of trouble
We never could have come this far, mmm
I took the good times, I'll take the bad times
I'll take you just the way you are

Don't go trying some new fashion
Don't change the color of your hair, mmm
You always have my unspoken passion
Although I might not seem to care

I don't want clever conversation
I never want to work that hard, mmm
I just want someone that I can talk to
I want you just the way you are

I need to know that you will always be
The same old someone that I knew
Oh, what will it take till you believe in me
The way that I believe in you?

I said I love you, that's forever
And this I promise from the heart, mmm
I couldn't love you any better
I love you just the way you are, right

I don't want clever conversation
I never want to work that hard, mmm
I just want someone that I can talk to
I want you just the way you are

WHITE HORSE

Taylor Swift

Say you're sorry, that face of an angel
Comes out just when you need it to
As I paced back and forth all this time
'Cause I honestly believed in you
Holdin' on, the days drag on
Stupid girl, I should've known, I should've known

That I'm not a princess, this ain't a fairy tale
I'm not the one you'll sweep off her feet
Lead her up the stairwell
This ain't Hollywood, this is a small town
I was a dreamer before you went and let me down
Now it's too late for you and your white horse
To come around

Maybe I was naive, got lost in your eyes
And never really had a chance
My mistake, I didn't know to be in love
You had to fight to have the upper hand
I had so many dreams about you and me
Happy endings, now I know

I'm not a princess, this ain't a fairy tale
I'm not the one you'll sweep off her feet
Lead her up the stairwell
This ain't Hollywood, this is a small town
I was a dreamer before you went and let me down
Now it's too late for you and your white horse
To come around

And there you are on your knees
Begging for forgiveness, begging for me
Just like I always wanted but I'm so sorry

'Cause I'm not your princess, this ain't a fairytale
I'm gonna find someone someday
Who might actually treat me well
This is a big world, that was a small town
There in my rear-view mirror disappearing now
And it's too late for you and your white horse
Now it's too late for you and your white horse
To catch me now

Oh, whoa, whoa, whoa
Try and catch me now, oh
It's too late
To catch me now

GOOSEBUMPS

Meghan Trainor

I was sitting at home on my sofa watching my favorite show
PJs, popcorn and ice cream with no makeup on
My girls dragged me out to a party, I didn't wanna go
I walked in and that's when I saw you, my heart hit the floor

I get weird, I get shy and you are the reason why
I get weak, wanna die when you look me in the eye
Is it all in my mind? I can't bare a beat tonight
Oh, I, oh, I can't lie

I get goose, I get bumps
I get chills and I'm all shook up
I give in, I give up
I surrender to your love
I'm a fool, I'm a mess
Got my heart beating out of my chest

I get goose, I get bumps
I get chills and I'm all shook up
I get goosebumps, I get goosebumps
I get goosebumps, I get, woo-ooh-ooh

Try to find a brush in the bathroom, my hands start to sweat
I said to myself in the mirror, "I should've worn a dress"
Never seen something so perfect, baby, you're the best
So nervous, I'm 'bout to lose it, and I must confess

That I get weird, I get shy, and you are the reason why
I get weak, wanna die, when you look me in the eye
And I try to say hi, I tried a million times
Oh, I, oh, I can't lie

I get goose, I get bumps
I get chills and I'm all shook up
I give in, I give up
I surrender to your love
I'm a fool, I'm a mess
Got my heart beating out of my chest

I get goose, I get bumps
I get chills and I'm all shook up
I get goosebumps, I get goosebumps
I get goosebumps, I get, woo-ooh-ooh
I get goosebumps, I get goosebumps
I get goosebumps, I get, woo-ooh-ooh

Hey baby, every time you walk by
I get a little brr down my spine
I get, I get, I get, I get 'em
I get, I get, I get 'em, goosebumps
I get, I get, I get, I get 'em
I get, I get, I get 'em, goosebumps

I get goose, I get bumps
I get chills and I'm all shook up
I give in, I give up
I surrender to your love
And I'm a fool, I'm a mess
Got my heart beating out of my chest

I get goosebumps, I get goosebumps
I get goosebumps, I get, woo-ooh-ooh
I get goosebumps, I get goosebumps
I get goosebumps, I get, woo-ooh-ooh

TO MAKE YOU FEEL MY LOVE

Adele

When the rain is blowing in your face
And the whole world is on your case
I could offer you a warm embrace
To make you feel my love

When the evening shadows and the stars appear
And there is no one there to dry your tears
I could hold you for a million years
To make you feel my love

I know you haven't made your mind up yet
But I will never do you wrong
I've known it from the moment that we met
No doubt in my mind where you belong

I'd go hungry, I'd go black and blue
I'd go crawling down the avenue
No, there's nothing that I wouldn't do
To make you feel my love

The storms are raging on the rolling sea
And on the highway of regret
The winds of change are blowing wild and free
You ain't seen nothing like me yet

I could make you happy, make your dreams come true
Nothing that I wouldn't do
Go to the ends of the Earth for you
To make you feel my love
To make you feel my love

SAVE MYSELF

Ed Sheeran

I gave all my oxygen to people I could breathe
I gave away my money and now we don't even speak
I drove miles and miles, but would you do the same for me?
Oh, honestly?
Offered off my shoulder just for you to cry upon
Gave you constant shelter and a bed to keep you warm
They gave me the heartache and in return I gave a song
It goes on and on

I gave you all my energy and I took away your pain
'Cause human beings are destined to radiate or drain
What line do we stand upon 'cause from here looks the same?
And only scars remain

But if don't Then I'll go back
To where I'm rescuing a stranger
Just because they needed saving just like that
Oh, I'm here again
Between the devil and the danger
But I guess it's just my nature
My dad was wrong
'Cause I'm not like my mum
'Cause she'd just smile and I'm complaining in a song
But it helps
So before I save someone else
I've got to save myself

Life can get you down so I just numb the way it feels
I drown it with a drink and out-of-date prescription pills
And all the ones that love me they just left me on the shelf
And farewell
So before I save someone else, I've got to save myself
And before I blame someone else, I've got to save myself
And before I love someone else, I've got to love myself
