Distracted

Just The Two Of Us
~Bill Withers

I see the crystal raindrops fall
And the beauty of it all
Is when the sun comes shining through
To make those rainbows in my mind
When I think of you sometimes
And I want to spend some time with you

Just the two of us
We can make it if we try
Just the two of us, just the two of us
Just the two of us
Building castles in the sky
Just the two of us
You and I

We look for love, no time for tears
Wasted water's all that is
And it don't make no flowers grow
Good things might come to those who wait
But not to those who wait too late
We got to go for all we know

Just the two of us
We can make it if we try
Just the two of us, just the two of us
Just the two of us
Building castles in the sky
Just the two of us
You and I

I hear the crystal raindrops fall
On the window down the hall
And it becomes the morning dew
Darling, when the morning comes
And I see the morning sun
I want to be the one with you

Just the two of us
We can make it if we try
Just the two of us, just the two of us
Just the two of us
Building castles in the sky
Just the two of us
You and I

Just the two of us
Just the two of us
We can make it, just the two of us
Let's get together, baby

Just the two of us
Just the two of us
We can make it, just the two of us
Just the two of us
We can make it
Just the two of us

Into Temptation
~Crowded House

You opened up your door
I couldn't believe my luck
You in your new blue dress
Taking away my breath
The cradle is soft and warm
Couldn't do me no harm
You're showing me how to give

Into temptation
Knowing full well the earth will rebel
Into temptation

In a muddle of nervous words
Could never amount to betrayal
The sentence is all my own
The price is to watch it fail
As i turn to go
You looked at me for half a second
An open invitation for me to go

Into temptation
Knowing full well the earth will rebel
Into temptation
Safe in the wide open arms of hell

We can go sailing in
Climb down
Lose yourself when you linger long
Into temptation
Right where you belong

The guilty get no sleep
In the last slow hours of morning
Experience is cheap
I should've listened to the warning
But the cradle is soft and warm

Into temptation
Knowing full well the earth will rebel
Into your wide open arms
No way to break the spell
Break this spell
Don't tell

The Sound Of White

Like a freeze-dried rose you will never be
What you were what you were to me in memory
But if I listen to the dark
You'll embrace me like a star
Envelope me
Envelope me

If things get real for me down here
Promise to take me to before you went away
If only for a day
If things get real for me down here
Promise to take me back to the tune we played
Before you went away

And if I listen to the sound of white
Sometimes I hear your smile and breathe your light
Yeah if I listen to the sound of white
You're my mystery one mystery
My mystery one mystery

My silence solidifies 'til that hollow void
Erases you erases you so I can't feel at all
But if I never feel again at least that nothingness will end
The painful dream of you and me

If things get real for me down here
Promise to take me to before you went away
If only for a day
If things get real for me down here
Promise to take me back to the tune we played
Before you went away

And if I listen to the sound of white
Sometimes I hear your smile and breathe your light
Yeah if I listen to the sound of white
Sometimes I hear your smile and breathe your light
And if I listen to the sound of white

I knelt before some stranger's face
Well I'd never had the courage or belief to trust this place
But I dropped my head cause it felt like lead
And I'm sure I felt your fingers through my hair

And if I listen to the sound of white
Sometimes I hear your smile and breathe your light
Yeah if I listen to the sound of white
The sound of white
The sound of white
The sound of white

The Prettiest Thing ~Norah Jones

The prettiest thing
I ever did see
Was lightening from the top of a cloud
Moving through the dark a million miles an hour
With somewhere to be

So why does it seem
Like a picture
Hanging up on someone else's wall
Lately I haven't been myself at all
It's heavy on my mind

I'm dreaming again
Like I've always been
And way down low
I know

The prettiest thing
I ever did see
Was dusty as the handle on the door
Rusty as a nail stuck in the old pine floor
Looks like home to me

I'm dreaming again
Like I've always been
And way down low
I'm thinkin' of the prettiest thing

Love It
~Bilal

Ooh...ooh...

When I look at you
What I see is my future wife-to-be
Only God Himself

You know I love it (I love it)

Give me peace of mind
Conversations be so soothing

But it only shows were human

Cause I'll take one for ya

The love I have for you

Love it
Love it, love it (Hoo, I love it)

You know I love it
Love it (Can’t imagine life without you)

Love it, love it (Love could end the pain)

You know I love it

Love it (Hey, I love it)
Love it
Love it, love it (I love it)

And your love make this life worth livin’
Give so much of yourself and you keep on givin’
Givin’ me (Me) everything I need
Baby, what more can ask for

Love it
Love it, love it (Baby, and I love it)
Love it
Love it, love it (Good and the bad)

You know I love it (Whoa...oh...)
Love it (Baby, I love it)
Love it
Love it, love it (Everything about you and I love it)


You know I love it (Hey, hey)
Love it

Good Day

Good day doesn't have to be a friday
Doesn't need to be your birthday
The next one then you won't survive
Sing along hold my life
A good day is any day that you're alive
Yes a good day is any day that you're alive

Asked me mmmm, you had to ask me
In the dreams you tell me
Tell them only you were tired
Sing along hold my life
A good day is any day that you're alive
Yeah, a good day is any day that you're alive

A bad day comes every once in awhile your body says
Fourteen hundred shooting stars and every time
A bad day comes every once in your body life
Goodbye

Hold my life one last time
A good day is any day that you're alive
Yes a good day is any day that you're alive
Yes a good day is any day that you're alive
These are the days

Sledgehammer

you could have a steam train
if you'd just lay down your tracks
you could have an aeroplane flying
if you bring your blue sky back

all you do is call me
I'll be anything you need

you could have a big dipper
going up and down, all around the bends
you could have a bumper car, bumping
this amusement never ends

I want to be your sledgehammer
why don't you call my name
oh let me be your sledgehammer
this will be my testimony

show me round your fruitcage
'cos I will be your honey bee
open up your fruitcage
where the fruit is as sweet as can be

I want to be your sledgehammer
why don't you call my name
you'd better call the sledgehammer
put your mind at rest
I'm going to be-the sledgehammer
this can be my testimony
I'm your sledgehammer
let there be no doubt about it

sledge sledge sledgehammer

I've kicked the habit
shed my skin
this is the new stuff
I go dancing in, we go dancing in

oh won't you show for me
and I will show for you
show for me, I will show for you
yea, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I do mean you
only you

you've been coming through
going to build that power
build, build up that power, hey
I've been feeding the rhythm
I've been feeding the rhythm
going to feel that power, build in you

come on, come on, help me do
yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, you
I've been feeding the rhythm
I've been feeding the rhythm
it's what we're doing, doing
all day and night

Waitiing in Vain ~ Annie Lennox

From the very first time I rest my eyes on you,boy
My heart said follow through but I know now
That I'm way down on your line
But the waiting feeling's fine

So don't treat me like a puppet on a string
Because I know how to do my thing
Don't talk to me as if you think I'm dumb
I wanna know when you're gotta come,you see

*I don't wanna wait in a vain for your love
I don't wanna wait in a vain for your love
I don't wanna wait in a vain for your love
'Cause sommer is here
And I'm still waiting there
Winter is here
I'm still waiting there

Like I said
It's been three years since I'm knocking on your door
And still I can knock some more
Ooh boy,ooh boy,is it crazy look,I wanna know now
For I to knock some more,you see

In life I know
That there is lots of grief
But your love is my relief
Tears in my eyes burn
Tears in my eyes burn
While I'm waitin'
While I'm waitin' for my turn,you see

(Repeat*)

Like I said-
I don't wanna,I don't wanna
I don't wanna,I don't wanna
I don't wanna wait in vain
I don't wanna,I don't wanna
I don't wanna,I don't wanna
I don't wanna wait in vain

It's been three years since I'm knocking on your door
And still I can knock some more
Ooh boy,ooh boy,is it crazy look,I wanna know now
Like I said,the tears in my eyes burn
Tears in my eyes burn
While I'm waiting
While I'm waiting for my turn,you see
Ooh boy,ooh boy,is it crazy look,I wanna know now
For I to knock some more
In life I know there is lots of grief
But your love is my relief

Have yourself a merry little Christmas.
Let your heart be light,
From now on our troubles
Will be out of sight.

Have yourself a merry little Christmas,
Make the Yule-tide gay,
From now on our troubles
Will be miles away.

Here we are as in olden days,
Happy golden days of yore,
Faithful friends who are dear to us
Gather near to us once more.

Through the years
We all will be together
If the Fates allow,
Hang a shining star
On the highest bough,
And have yourself
A merry little Christmas now.

Here we are as in olden days,
Happy golden days of yore,
Faithful friends who are dear to us
Gather near to us once more.

Through the years
We all will be together
If the Fates allow,
Hang a shining star
On the highest bough...

And have yourself
A merry little Christmas now.

Phish -- "Birds of a Feather"

it's easy sometimes when you just coast along
but like it or not something always seems to go wrong
sometimes people build you up just so they can knock you down
sometimes they will have you there 'cause they need someone around

perhaps you'll receive invitations for tea
or perhaps you'll laugh and make them all smile
or maybe you'll join them 'cause it had to be
perhaps you'll forget that you forgot for awhile

birds of a feather are flocking outside
birds of a feather are flocking outside
birds of a feather are flocking outside
birds of a feather are flocking outside

like whippets they dance in a curly-queue dance
of pulses and ringing and campfire chants
of ritual drumming although at first glance
you thought you could run but you won't take a chance

it's not an experience if they can't bring someone along
they hang on emotions they bottle inside
they peck at the ground
and strut out of stride

birds of a feather are flocking outside
birds of a feather are flocking outside
birds of a feather are flocking outside
birds of a feather are flocking outside

birds of a feather are flocking outside
birds of a feather are flocking outside
birds of a feather are flocking outside
birds of a feather are flocking outside
