Vanilla Fudge - "You Keep Me Hanging On"


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LdLRoOYk50o

Set me free
Why don't you babe?
Get off my life
Why don't you babe?

You really don't want me
You just keep me hangin' on
You really don't need me
You just keep me hangin' on

Why do you keep comin' around
Playing with my heart?
Why don't you get out of my life
When seeing you only breaks my heart again?

And there ain't nothing
I can do about it

You know I need love
(Set me free, why don't you babe?)
Talkin 'bout love
(Get off my life, why don't you babe?)

You really don't want me
You just keep me hangin' on

Get off my life
Why don't you babe?
Get off my life
Why don't you babe?

Something Corporate - "Konstantine"



https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LvmaK5n1zg0

I can't imagine all the people that you know
And the places that you go
When the lights are turned down low
And I don't understand
All the things you've seen
But I'm slipping in between
You and your big... dreams
It's always you and my big dreams

And you tell me
That it's over
But I can't stand here in a patch of four leaf clover
And your restless
And I'm naked
You've got to get out
You can't stand to see me shaking
No, could you let me go
I didn't think so

And you don't want to be here in the future
So you say
The present's just a pleasant
Interruption to the past
And you don't want to look much closer
'Cause you're afraid to find out all the hope
That you had sent into the sky by now had... crashed
And it did because of me

And then you bring me home
Afraid to find out that you're alone, no
And I'm sleeping in your living room
But we don't have much room
To live

And I had dreams that I would learn to play guitar
Maybe cross the country
Become a rockstar
And there was hope in me
That I could take you there
But dammit you're so young
But I don't think I care
And if I hurt you then I'm sorry
Please don't think that this was easy

And then you bring me home
'Cause we both know what its like to be alone, no
And I'm dreaming in your living room
But we don't have much room
To live

Konstantine came walking down the stairs
Doesn't she look good
Standing in her underwear?
And I've been thinking, and I've thinking, no
But she's been drinking
And it doesn't get me anywhere

My Konstantine came walking down the stairs
And all that I could do
Was touch her long blond hair
And I was thinking, what I was thinking ya know
We've been drinking and it doesn't get me anywhere

This is because I can spell confusion with a K
and I like it
It's to dying in another's arms
And why I had to try it
It's to jimmy eat world
And those nights in my car
But this time I'm alone, and I don't see those stars
I'm not your star?
Isn't that what you said
What you thought this song meant
You thought this song meant

And if this is what it takes
Just to lie in my mistakes
And live with what I did to you
And all the hell I put you through
I always catch the clock it's 11:11
And now you want to talk
It's not hard to dream
You'll always be my Konstantine

They'll never hurt you like I do
No, They'll never hurt you like I do
No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No

This is to a girl who got into my head
With all these pretty things she did
Hey Baby, You know that you keep me up in bed
It's to a girl who got into my head
With all the fucked up things I did
Hey maybe baby, you could keep me up in bed
My Konstantine

Spin around me like a dream
We played out on this movie screen
And I said,
Did you know I miss you
Did you know I miss you
Did you know I miss you
Did you know I miss you
Did you know I miss you
Did you know I miss you
Did you know I miss you

God, I miss you

And then you bring me home
And we'll go to sleep but this time not alone, no no,
And you'll kiss me in your living room, oh
And you see, no, that I've been missing in my Living room
Cause this is what I miss, what I miss
We don't have much room
I said, does anybody need that room?
Because we all need a little more room
To live

My Konstantine

Ray LaMontagne - "I Still Care For You"



https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JODKEqp4nYI

Hear me out.
Day follows day,
Light turns to clay in my hands.

How to explain,
So pristine the pain.
Kindness made the cut so clean

I still care for you.
I still care for you.
I still care for you.

Hear me out
You wanted to me to be
Less your love than a mirror

Can't you see
What you mean to me?
Even promises may bleed.

I still care for you.
I still care for you.
I still care for you.

The hours grow
Heavy,
And hollow,
Cruel as a grave
Me and you finally
Knows when to die.

I still care for you.
I still care for you.
I still care for you.










---------------------------
Open
Me
You'll find
Only bones burned to glass.

I still care for you.
I still care for you.
I still care for you.

Lucinda Williams - "Are You Alright?"



http://www.bing.com/videos/search?q=Are+You+Alright+Lucinda+Williams&FORM=RESTAB#view=detail&mid=E17FFA63D08BDE347DDFE17FFA63D08BDE347DDF

Are you all right?
All of a sudden you went away
Are you all right?
I hope you come back around someday.
Are you all right?
I haven't seen you in a real long time.
Are you all right?
Could you give me some kind of sign?
Are you all right?
I looked around me and you were gone.
Are you all right?
I feel like there must be something wrong.
Are you all right?
Cause it seems like you disappeared.
Are you all right?
Cause I've been feeling a little scared.
Are you all right?

Are you sleeping through the night?
Do you have someone to hold you tight?
Do you have someone to hang out with?
Do you have someone to hug & kiss you?
Hug & kiss you
Hug & kiss you
Are you all right?

Are you all right?
Is there something been bothering you?
Are you all right?
I wish you'd give me a little clue.
Are you all right?
Is there something you want to say?
Are you all right?
Just tell me that you're OK.
Are you all right?
Cause you took off without a word.
Are you all right?
You flew away like a little bird.
Are you all right?
Is there anything I can do?
Are you all right?
Cause I need to hear from you.
Are you all right?

Are you sleeping through the night?
Do you have someone to hold you tight?
Do you have someone to hang out with?
Do you have someone to hug & kiss you?
Hug & kiss you
Hug & kiss you

Are you all right?

Are you all right?

Are you all right?

Andrew McMahon - "All Our Lives"



https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zhRXldOsMXY

I saw this old friend at the Eveleigh bar
Life hadn't treated him so well
A heart so gold, and words so blue
In a body home from hell

He said, "If I could tell you one thing, I would tell you this:
There's only one mistake that I have made
It's giving up the music in my fingertips
By trying to get to heaven through my veins."

All our lives
I watched you search beneath the fallen skies
This was no path to glory
You always walked before me
But you came back to warn me
All our lives

I saw this woman with tears in her eyes
Driving beside me yesterday
She turned her head, then I turned mine
And I watched her drive away

I thought, if I could tell her something, I would tell her this
There's only two mistakes that I have made
It's running from the people who could love me best
And trying to fix a world that I can't change

All our lives
I watched you search beneath the fallen skies
This was no path to glory
You always walked before me
But you came back to warn me
All our lives

I remember being young and staring at my hands
In the middle of the night, the first light of the morning
My room like a church, voices down the hall
I barely made 'em out, but sometimes you don't want to know
Now that I'm older, I can tell you this
The mornings I miss, but I don't really miss the voices
You've got a choice, I've got the hands
Skeletons and plans, you've got to let 'em go

All our lives
I watched you search beneath the fallen skies

All our lives
I watched you search beneath the fallen skies
This was no path to glory
You always walked before me
But you came back to warn me
All our lives

All our lives
I watched you search beneath the fallen skies
This was no path to glory
You always walked before me
But you came back to warn me
All our lives
