[ SONG ] : " FAST CAR " - most famous song of tracy, listen and watch - http://www.ilike.com/artist/Tracy+Chapman/track/Fast+Car

 

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 well 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 wont have to drive too far
Just cross 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 mans got a problem
He live with the bottle thats the way it is
He says his bodys too old for working
I say his bodys too young to look like his
My mama went off and left him
She wanted more from life than he could give
I said somebodys got to take care of him
So I quit school and thats 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

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
And I had a feeling I could be someone, be someone, be someone

You got a fast car
And we go cruising to entertain ourselves
You still aint got a job
And I work in a market as a checkout girl
I know things will get better
Youll find work and Ill get promoted
Well move out of the shelter
Buy a big house and live in the suburbs
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
Id always hoped for better
Thought maybe together you and me would find it
I got no plans I aint going nowhere
So take your fast car and keep on driving

You got a fast car
But is it fast enough so you can fly away
You gotta make a decision
You leave tonight or live and die this way

[ SONG : ] " Talkin bout a revolution "


Dont you know
Theyre talkin bout a revolution
It sounds like a whisper
Dont you know
Theyre talkin about a revolution
It sounds like a whisper

While theyre standing in the welfare lines
Crying at the doorsteps of those armies of salvation
Wasting time in the unemployment lines
Sitting around waiting for a promotion

Poor people gonna rise up
And get their share
Poor people gonna rise up
And take whats theirs

Dont you know
You better run, run, run...
Oh I said you better
Run, run, run...

Finally the tables are starting to turn
Talkin bout a revolution

Sorry
Is all that you cant say
Years gone by and still
Words dont come easily
Like sorry like sorry

Forgive me
Is all that you cant say
Years gone by and still
Words dont come easily
Like forgive me forgive me

But you can say baby
Baby can I hold you tonight
Maybe if I told you the right words
At the right time youd be mine

I love you
Is all that you cant say
Years gone by and still
Words dont come easily
Like I love you I love you

[coldplay] SPEED OF SOUND

" SPEED OF SOUND "


How long before I get in
Before it starts before I begin
How long before you decide or
Before I know what it feels like
Where to, where do i go?
If you never try then you'll never know
How long do i have to climb
Up on the side of this mountain of mine


Look up, I look up at night
Planets are moving at the speed of light
Climb up, up in the trees
Every chance that you get is a chance you seize
How long am I gonna stand
With my head stuck under the sand
I'll start before I can stop or
Before I see things the right way up


All that noise and all that sound
All those places I have got found
And birds go flying at the speed of sound
To show you how it all began
Birds come flying from the underground
If you could see it then you'd understand

Ideas that you'll never find
All the inventors could never design
The buildings that you put up
Japan and China all lit up
A sign that I couldn't read
or a light, that I couldn't see
Some things you have to believe
When others are puzzles, puzzling me

All that noise and all that sound
All those places I have got found
And birds go flying at the speed of sound
To show you how it all began
Birds came flying from the underground
If you could see it then you'd understand
Oh, when you see it then you'll understand

All those signs I knew what they meant
Somethings you can't invent
Some get made, and some get sent
And birds gone flying at the speed of sound
To show you how it all began
Birds came flying from the underground
If you could see it then you'd understand
Oh, when you see it then you'll understand

[coldplay] LYRICS - A MESSAGE ,Fix You , 'How You See The World ' ,

A MESSAGE

My song is love
Love to the lovely song
And it goes on
You don't have to be alone

Your heavy heart
Is made of stone
And its so hard to see you clearly
You don't have to be on your own
You don't have to be on your own

And I'm not gonna take it back
And I'm not gonna say I don't know now
Your a target that im aiming at
Take my message home

I saw her sime
My song is love, i know
But I'm on fire for you, clearly
You don't have to be on your own
You don't have to be on your own

And I'm not gonna take it back
Oh I'm not gonna say I don't know now
Your a target that im aiming at
And I'm nothing on my own
Got to get that message home

And I'm not gonna stand and wait
Not gonna be leave it until its much too late
On a platform I'm gonna stand and say
That I'm nothing on my own
And I love you, please come home

My song is love, is love i know
And I've got to get that message home


Fix You

When you try your best but you don't succeed
When you get what you want but not what you need
When you feel so tired but you can't sleep
Stuck in reverse

When the tears come streaming down your face
When you lose something you can't replace
When you love someone but it goes to waste
could it be worse?

Lights will guide you home
and ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you

High up above or down below
when you're too in love to let it go
If you never try you'll never know
Just what you're worth

Lights will guide you home
and ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you

Tears stream down your face
When you lose something you cannot replace
Tears stream down your face and I

Tears stream down your face
I promise you I will learn from my mistakes
Tears stream down your face and I

Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you


coldplay: How You See The World

Are you missing something?
Looking for something?
Tired of everything
Searching and struggling
Are you worried about it?
Do you wanna talk about it?
Oh You're gonna get it right some time

Theres so much to be scared of
And not much to make sense of
Are you running in a circle?
You can't be too careful
And you can't relate it
'Cos it's complicated
Oh You're gonna get it right some time
You're gonna get it right some time

It's how you see the world
How many times can you see?
You can't believe what you learn

It's how you see the world
Don't you worry yourself
Your not gonna get hurt

Oooohhhhh...

Is there something missing?
There's nobody listening
Are you scared of what you don't know?
Dont wanna end up on your own?
You need conversation
And information

Ohhhhhhhhh...

Gonna get it right sometimes
You just wanna get it right sometimes

It's how you see the world
How many times have you heard?
You can't believe a word

It's how you see the world
Don't you worry yourself
'Cos nobody can learn

Oooooh
Oooooh
Ooooooooh

That's how you see the world
That's how you see the world

[ Song Lyrics ] I'll Fly Away - Kanye West

(acapella)
one glad morning when this life is over
i'll fly away
to the land where joy shall never end
woah i'll fly away

woah i'll fly away oh glory
i'll fly away
when i die hallelujah bye and bye
i'll fly away

< 1songlyrics.com > It's All Right Now - Tiny Tim (SONG LYRICS)

Dark is the sun that my memory makes,
Lonely the image my yesterday takes,
Does the direction,
In which I go,
Not where I feel I must fall?
I seem to hear a voice call;

(chorus)
It's all right now,
Take it easy,
Don't you worry,
It's all right now

Here is the place that I'd most like to be,
High above life's mundanity,
Sunshine and laughter,
All the good things,
Look how wild the angels sing,
Must be an angel sayin'

(choir)
It's all right now,
Take it easy,
Don't you worry,
It's all right now.

But I don't know where I'm going,
And I'm not going back,
Yet the mile that brought me this far,
It came on a one-way track.

And I've had my fill of lyin',
I've had my day of mold,
I'm fed up with your cryin'
I'm better off alone!

Dark is the sun that my memory makes,
Lonely the image my yesterday takes,
Does the direction,
In which I go,
Not where I feel I must fall?
I seem to hear a voice call;

(chorus)
It's all right now,
Take it easy,
Don't you worry,
It's all right now.

1songlyrics.com - Believe me - Fort Minor

Chorus
I guess
That this is where we've come to
If you don't want to
Then you don't have to believe me
But I won't be there when you go down
Just so you know now
You're on your own now believe me

I don't want to be the one to blame
You like fun and games
Keep playin 'em
I'm just sayin
Think back then
We was like one and the same
On the right track
But I was on the wrong train
Just like that
Now you've gotta face the pain
And the devil's got a fresh new place to play
In your brain like a maze you can never escape the rain
Every damn day is the same shade of grey

Hey
I used have a little bit of a plan
Used to
Have a concept of where I stand
But that concept slipped right out of my hand
Now I don't really even know who I am
Yo, what do I have to say
Maybe I should do what I have to do to break free
And whatever happens to you, we'll see
But it's not gonna happen to me

:Chorus:

Back then, I thought you were just like me
Somebody who could see all the pain I see
But you proved to me unintentionally
That you would self-destruct eventually
Now I'm thinking like the mistake I made doesn't hurt
But it's not gonna work
Cause it's really much worse than I thought
I wished you were something you were not
And now this guilt is really all that I got

Uh
You turned your back
And walked away in shame
All you got is a memory of pain
Nothing makes sense so you stare at the ground
And hear my voice in your head when no one else is around
So what do I have to say
Maybe I should do what I have to do to break free
And whatever happens to you, we'll see
But it's not gonna happen to me

:Chorus:

Instrumental Break

:Chorus:

I'll do what i have to do
You're on your own now believe me

Whatever happened to you?
You're on your own now believe me

What do I have to say?
You're on your own now believe me

It's not gonna happen to me
You're on your own now believe me

See me through - Rascal flatts - Song lyrics

Before we met I was free
I never had to worry about anyone but me
Now that boy is gone and in his place
Is a man who needs to hold you night and day
So if I stumble, if I fall
Forgive me, I'm just learning as I go along

See me through, see me through
This aching heart has come so far
To be with you, see me through
With angel eyes, just look inside
At all this love I never want to lose
See me through

I know sometimes I let you down
But I�m still getting used to having you around
And if I ever make you cry
There�s nothing I won�t do to make things right
I�m not perfect and that�s for sure
A little time is all I�m asking for

See me through, see me through
This aching heart has come so far
To be with you, see me through
With angel eyes, just look inside
At all this love I never want to lose
See me through

See me through this mask I wear
Well, I�m almost there, you know I care
I am the man you always thought you knew

See me through, see me through
This aching heart has come so far
To be with you, see me through
With angel eyes, just look inside
At all thislove I never want to lose
See me through

See me through, yeah see me through
Oh, see me through
Yeah, yeah
Oooo, Oooo, Oooo, see me through
Oh, we�re almost there, can�t you see that
I�m almost, girl I�m almost there
This mask I wear
Girl, I�m almost there, I�m almost there
See me, see me through this mask I wear
I�m almost there
Oooo, Oooo, Oooo, girl
See me through, girl

Pieces

From the moment that we met
My world was turned around, upside down
To some degree I still regret my memory
For keeping you around
Girl, I thought that you were mine
But my broken heart�s been shattered
One too mine times

Chorus
And I don�t wanna see you anymore
I�m just not that strong
I love it when you�re here
But I�m better when you�re gone
I�m certain that I�ve given
And oh how you can take
There�s no use in you lookin�
There�s nothin� left for you to break
Baby, please release me
Let my heart rest in pieces, in pieces

Someone let you down again
So you turn to me, your convenient friend
Oh, but I know what you�re doin� and what you hope to find
I�ve seen it a thousand times
All the fire we had before
Are now just bitter ashes
Left scattered on the floor

We both know that you don�t need me
Let my heart rest in pieces, in pieces
Let it rest

Bless the Broken Road song Lyrics - Rascal Flatts

Bless the Broken Road song Lyrics - Rascal Flatts

set out on a narrow way many years ago
Hoping I would find true love along the broken road
But I got lost a time or two
Wiped my brow and kept pushing through
I couldn't see how every sign pointed straight to you

Chorus:
Every long lost dream led me to where you are
Others who broke my heart they were like northern stars
Pointing me on my way into your loving arms
This much I know is true
That God blessed the broken road
That led me straight to you

I think about the years I spent just passing through
I'd like to have the time I lost and give it back to you
But you just smile and take my hand
You've been there you understand
It's all part of a grander plan that is coming true

Chorus:
Every long lost dream led me to where you are
Others who broke my heart they were like northern stars
Pointing me on my way into your loving arms
This much I know is true
That God blessed the broken road
That led me straight to you

Now I�m just rollin� home into my lover's arms
This much I know is true
That God blessed the broken road that led me straight to you

Baby Don't Get Hooked on me - Rascal Flatts - Song Lyrics

Baby Don't Get Hooked on me - Rascal Flatts - Song Lyrics

Girl, you're getting that look in your eyes
and it's starting to worry me
See, I ain't ready for no family ties
no woman's gonna hurry me

Just keep it friendly girl
'cause I don't wanna leave
If you start clinging to me
you know that I can't breathe

Baby, Baby, don't get hooked on me
Baby, Baby, don't get hooked on me
'Cause I'll just use you and I'll set you free
Baby, baby, don't get hooked on me

You've been my hot lovin' woman
And it's hot where you've been touching me
And I can tell by your trembling lips
You've been seeing just a little too much of me

Now don't let your life get all tangled up in mine,
'Cause I'll just use you, I can't take no clinging vine

Baby, Baby, don't get hooked on me
Baby, Baby, don't get hooked on me
'Cause I'll just use you and I'll set you free
Baby, Baby, don't get hooked on me

Baby, Baby, don't get hooked on me
no, no, no, Baby, Baby, don't get hooked on me, no
'Cause I'll just use you and I'll set you free, set you free
Baby, baby don't get hooked on me
