Daughtry - It's Not Over



I was blown away
What could I say?
It all seemed to make sense
You've taken away everything
And I can't deal with that
I try to see the good in life
But good things in life are hard to find
We'll blow it away, blow it away

Can we make this something good?
Well, I'll try to do it right this time around

Let's start over
I'll try to do it right this time around
It's not over
Cause a part of me is dead and in the ground
This love is killing me but you're the only one
It's not over

Taken all I could take
And I cannot wait
We're wasting too much time
Being strong, holding on
Can't let it bring us down
My life with you means everything
So I won't give up that easily
I'll blow it away, blow it away

Can we make this something good?
Cause it's all misunderstood
Well, I'll try to do it right this time around

Let's start over
I'll try to do it right this time around
It's not over
Cause a part of me is dead and in the ground
This love is killing me but you're the only one
It's not over

We can't let this get away
Let it out, let it out
Don't get caught up in yourself
Let it out

Let's start over
I'll try to do it right this time around
It's not over
Cause a part of me is dead and in the ground
This love is killing me but you're the only one
It's not over

Let's start over
It's not over, yeah
This love is killing me but you're the only one
It's not over


Daughtry - Used To



You used to talk to me like
I was the only one around
You used to lean on me like
The only other choice was falling down
You used to walk with me like
We had nowhere we needed to go
Nice and slow
To no place in particular

We used to have this figured out
We used to breathe without a doubt
When nights were clear
You were the first star that I'd see
We used to have this under control
We never thought we used to know
At least there's you and at least there's me
Can we get this back?
Can we get this back to how it used to be?

I used to reach for you when
I got lost along the way
I used to listen
You always had the just right thing to say
I used to follow you
Never really cared where we would go
Fast or slow, to anywhere at all

We used to have this figured out
We used to breathe without a doubt
When nights were clear
You were the first star that I'd see
We used to have this under control
We never thought we used to know
At least there's you and at least there's me
Can we get this back?
Can we get this back to how it used to be?

I look around me
And I want you to be there
Cause I miss the things that we shared
Look around you
It's empty and you're sad
Cause you miss the love that we had

You used to talk to me like
I was the only one around
The only one around

We used to have this figured out
We used to breathe without a doubt
When nights were clear
You were the first star that I'd see
We used to have this under control
We never thought we used to know
At least there's you and at least there's me
Can we get this back?
Can we get this back to how it used to be? yeah
To how it used to be
To how it used to be, yeah
To how it used to be
To how it used to be


Daughtry - Home



I'm staring out into the night
Trying to hide the pain
I'm going to the place where love
And feeling good don't ever cost a thing
And the pain you feel's a different kind of pain

Well I'm going home
Back to the place where I belong
And where your love has always been enough for me
I'm not running from
No, I think you got me all wrong
I don't regret this life I chose for me
But these places and these faces are getting old
So I'm going home
Well I'm going home

The miles are getting longer, it seems
The closer I get to you
I've not always been the best man or friend for you
But your love remains true
And I don't know why
You always seem to give me another try

So I'm going home
Back to the place where I belong
And where your love has always been enough for me
I'm not running from
No, I think you got me all wrong
I don't regret this life I chose for me
But these places and these faces are getting old

Be careful what you wish for
Cause you just might get it all
You just might get it all
And then some you don't want
Be careful what you wish for
Cause you just might get it all
You just might get it all, yeah

Oh, well I'm going home
Back to the place where I belong
And where your love has always been enough for me
I'm not running from
No, I think you got me all wrong
I don't regret this life I chose for me
But these places and these faces are getting old
I said these places and these faces are getting old
So I'm going home, I'm going home


Daughtry - Over You



Now that it's all said and done
I can't believe you were the one
To build me up and tear me down
Like an old abandoned house
What you said when you left
Just left me cold and out of breath
I fell too far, was in way too deep
Guess I let you get the best of me

Well, I never saw it coming
I should've started running
A long, long time ago
And I never thought I'd doubt you
I'm better off without you
More than you, more than you know
I'm slowly getting closure
I guess it's really over
I'm finally getting better
And now I'm picking up the pieces
I'm spending all of these years
Putting my heart back together
Cause the day I thought I'd never get through
I got over you

You took a hammer to these walls
Dragged the memories down the hall
Packed your bags and walked away
There was nothing I could say
And when you slammed the front door shut
A lot of others opened up
So did my eyes, so I could see
That you never were the best for me

Well, I never saw it coming
I should've started running
A long, long time ago
And I never thought I'd doubt you
I'm better off without you
More than you, more than you know
I'm slowly getting closure
I guess it's really over
I'm finally getting better
And now I'm picking up the pieces
I'm spending all of these years
Putting my heart back together
Cause the day I thought I'd never get through
I got over you

Well, I never saw it coming
I should've started running
A long, long time ago
And I never thought I'd doubt you
I'm better off without you
More than you, more than you know

Well, I never saw it coming
I should've started running
A long, long time ago
And I never thought I'd doubt you
I'm better off without you
More than you, more than you know
I'm slowly getting closure
I guess it's really over
I'm finally getting better
And now I'm picking up the pieces
I'm spending all of these years
Putting my heart back together
Well I'm putting my heart back together
Cause I got over you
Well I got over you, I got over you
Cause the day I thought I'd never get through
I got over you


Daughtry - Feels Like Tonight



You, you got me
Thinking it'll be alright
You, you told me
"Come and take a look inside"
You believed me
Every single lie
I, I failed you this time

And it feels like tonight
I can't believe I'm broken inside
Can't you see that
There's nothing that I wanna do
But try to make it up to you?
And it feels like tonight
Tonight

I was waiting
For the day you'd come around
I was chasing
And nothing was all I found
From the moment you came into my life
You showed me what's right

And it feels like tonight
I can't believe I'm broken inside
Can't you see that
There's nothing that I wanna do
But try to make it up to you?
And it feels like tonight

I never felt like this before
Just when I leave, I'm back for more
Nothing else here seems to matter
In these ever-changing days
You're the one thing that remains
I could stay like this forever

And it feels like tonight
I can't believe I'm broken inside
Can't you see that
There's nothing that I wanna do
But try to make it up to you?
And it feels like tonight
Tonight
(Feels like tonight)
Tonight
(Feels like tonight)
Cause there's nothing that I wanna do
But try to make it up to you
And it feels like tonight
Tonight


Mariah Carey - Bringing On The Heartbreak



Gypsy, sittin' lookin' pretty
A broken rose and laughin' eyes
You're a mystery
Always runnin' wild
Like a child without a home
You're always searchin'
Searchin' for a feelin'
But it's easy come and easy go, oh

I'm sorry but it's true
You're bringin' on the heartache
Takin' all the best of me
Oh, can't you see
You got the best of me
Oh, can't you see

You're bringin' on the heartbreak
Bringin' on the heartache
You're bringin' on the heartbreak
Bringin' on the heartache
Can't you see, oh

You're such a secret
Misty eyed and shady
Baby, how you hold the key
Oh, you're like a candle
Your flame slowly fadin'
Burnin' out and burnin' me
Can't you see

Just tryin' to say to you
You're bringin' on the heartache
Takin' all the best of me
Oh, can't you see
You got the best of me
Oh, can't you see

You're bringin' on the heartbreak
Bringin' on the heartache
You're bringin' on the heartbreak
Bringin' on the heartache
Can't you see, can't you see
No no no, hey baby

You got the best of me
Oh, can't you see (oh, can't you see)
You got the best of me (you got the best of me)
Oh, can't you see (oh, can't you see)

You're bringin' on the heartbreak (yeah yeah)
Bringin' on the heartache (you're bringin' on the heartache)
You're bringin' on the heartbreak (oh oh you're bringin' on, bringin' on)
Bringin' on the heartache (the heartbreak.. bringin' on)
You're bringin' on the heartbreak (oh..)
Bringin' on the heartache (you're bringin' on the heartache)
You're bringin' on the heartbreak (hey yeah.. can't you see)
Bringin' on the heartache (you're bringin' on the heartache)
You're bringin' on the heartbreak
Heartache, hmmm


Mariah Carey & Whitney Houston - When You Believe



(Whitney)
Many nights we've prayed
With no proof anyone could hear
In our hearts a hopeful song
We barely understood
Now we are not afraid
Although we know there's much to fear
We were moving mountains
Long before we knew we could

There can be miracles
When you believe
Though hope is frail
It's hard to kill
Who knows what miracles
You can achieve
When you believe
Somehow you will
You will when you believe

(Mariah)
In this time of fear
When prayer so often proves in vain
Hope seemed like the summer birds
Too swiftly flown away
Yet now I'm standing here
My heart's so full I can't explain
Seeking faith and speaking words
I never thought I'd say

There can be miracles
When you believe
(When you believe)
Though hope is frail
It's hard to kill
Who knows what miracles
You can achieve
(You can achieve)
When you believe
Somehow you will
You will when you believe

(Both)
They don't always happen when you ask
And it's easy to give in to your fear
But when you're blinded by your pain
Can't see your way safe through the rain
Thought of a still resilient voice
Says love is very near

There can be miracles
(Whitney: Miracles)
When you believe
(Whitney: Oh when you believe)
Though hope is frail
It's hard
(Whitney: Hard to kill)
Who knows what miracles
You can achieve
(Whitney: You can achieve)
When you believe
Somehow you will
(Whitney: Somehow, somehow, somehow)
Now you will
You will when you believe

Mariah: You will when you..
Whitney: You will when you believe
Just believe
Just believe
You will when you believe 


Mariah Carey - I Stay In Love



Oh baby
Baby, I stay in love with you

Dying inside cause I can't stand it
Make or break up can't take this madness
We don't even really know why
All I know is baby I try
And try so hard to keep our love alive

If you don't know me at this point
Then I highly doubt you ever will
I really need you to give me
That unconditional love I used to feel
It's a mistake if we just erase it
From our hearts and minds and I know

We said let go but I kept on hanging on
Inside I know it's over, you're really gone
It's killing me cause
There ain't nothing that I can do
Baby, I stay in love with you
And I keep on telling myself
That you'll come back around
And I try to front like "Oh well"
Each time you let me down
See I can't get over you now
No matter what I do but baby, baby
I stay in love with you

Na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na na
Baby, I stay in love with you

It cuts so deep, it hurts down to my soul
My friends tell me I ain't the same no more
We still need each other when we stumble and fall
How we gonna act like what we had
Ain't nothin' at all now

Hey, what I wanna do is
Ride shotgun next to you
With the top down like we used to
Hit the block, proud in the SU
We both know our heart is breaking
Can we learn from our mistakes
I can't last one moment alone
Now go I know

We said let go but I kept on hanging on
Inside I know it's over, you're really gone
It's killing me cause
There ain't nothing that I can do
Baby, I stay in love with you
And I keep on telling myself
That you'll come back around
And I try to front like "Oh well"
Each time you let me down
See I can't get over you now
No matter what I do but baby, baby
I stay in love with you (x2)

I stay in love
Love
Oh, I stay in love


David Cook - Innocent



Oh, Johnny wishes he was famous
Spends his time alone in the basement
With Lennon and Cobain and
A guitar and a stereo
While he wishes he could escape this
But it all seems so contagious
Not to be yourself and faceless
In a song that has no soul

I remember feeling low and
I remember losing hope and
I remember all the feelings
And the day they stopped

We are, we are all innocent
We are all innocent, we are, we are
We are, we are all innocent
We are all innocent, we are, we are

Oh, Tina's losing faith in what she knows
Hates her music, hates all of her clothes
Thinks of surgery and a new nose
Every calorie is a war
And while she wishes she was a dancer
And that she'd never heard of cancer
She wishes God would give her some answers
And make her feel beautiful

I remember feeling low and
I remember losing hope and
I remember all the feelings
And the day they stopped

We are, we are all innocent
We are all innocent, we are, we are
We are, we are all innocent
We are all innocent, we are, we are

One day you'll have to let it go
You'll have to let it go, no
One day you'll stand up on your own
You'll stand up on your own, yeah
Remember losing hope
Remember feeling low
Remember all the feelings
And the day they stopped

We are, we are all innocent
We are all innocent, we are, we are
We are, we are all innocent
We are all innocent, we are, we are

(We are)
One day
(We are all innocent)
You'll have to let it go
(We are all innocent)
You'll have to let it go
(We are, we are)
No oh
(We are)
One day
(We are all innocent)
You'll stand up on your own
(We are all innocent)
You'll stand up on your own
(We are, we are)
Yeah

We are, we are all innocent


David Cook - Light On

(official music video: http://youtu.be/DS-movP04Lw)


Never really said too much
Afraid it wouldn't be enough
Just try to keep my spirits up
When there's no point in grieving
Doesn't matter anyway
Words could never make me stay
Words will never take my place
When you know I'm leaving

And try to leave a light on when I'm gone
Something I rely on to get home
One I can feel at night, a naked light
A fire to keep me warm
Try to leave a light on when I'm gone
Even in the daylight, shine on
And when it's late at night you can look inside
You won't feel so alone

You know we've been down that road
What seems a thousand times before
My back to a closing door
And my eyes to the seasons
That roll out underneath my heels
And you don't know how bad it feels
Leave the only one that I have ever believed in

And try to leave a light on when I'm gone
Something I rely on to get home
One I can feel at night, a naked light
A fire to keep me warm
Try to leave a light on when I'm gone
Even in the daylight, shine on
And when it's late at night you can look inside
You won't feel so alone

Sometimes it feels like we've run out of luck
When the signal keeps on breaking up
When the wires cross in my brain
You'll start my heart again
When I come along, yeah

Try to leave a light on when I'm gone
Something I rely on to get home
One I can feel at night, a naked light
A fire to keep me warm
Try to leave a light on when I'm gone
Even in the daylight, shine on
And when it's late at night you can look inside
You won't feel so alone
Try to leave a light on when I'm gone
Even in the daylight, shine on
And when it's late at night you can look inside
You won't feel so alone


Carrie Underwood - Jesus Take The Wheel



She was driving last Friday on her way
To Cincinnati on a snow white Christmas Eve
Going home to see her Mama and her
Daddy with the baby in the backseat
Fifty miles to go and she was
Running low on faith and gasoline
It'd been a long hard year

She had a lot on her mind
And she didn't pay attention
She was going way too fast
And before she knew it she was
Spinning on a thin black sheet of glass
She saw both their lives flash before her eyes
She didn't even have time to cry
She was so scared
She threw her hands up in the air

Jesus take the wheel
Take it from my hands
Cause I can't do this on my own
I'm letting go
So give me one more chance
To save me from this road I'm on
Jesus take the wheel

It was still getting colder when she made it
To the shoulder and the car came to a stop
She cried when she saw that baby
In the backseat sleeping like a rock
And for the first time in a long time
She bowed her head to pray
She said I'm sorry for the way
I've been living my life
I know I've got to change
So from now on tonight

Jesus take the wheel
Take it from my hands
Cause I can't do this on my own
I'm letting go
So give me one more chance
To save me from this road I'm on
Oh, Jesus take the wheel

Oh, I'm letting go
So give me one more chance
Save me from this road I'm on
From this road I'm on
Jesus take the wheel
Oh take it, take it from me

Mariah Carey - Bye Bye



This is for my people who just lost somebody
Your best friend, your baby, your man or your lady
Put your hand way up high
We will never say bye (no, no, no)
Mamas, daddies, sisters, brothers, friends and cousins
This is for my peoples who lost their grandmothers
Lift your head to the sky 'cause we will never say bye

As a child there were them times
I didn't get it but you kept me in line
I didn't know why you didn't show up sometimes
It's something more than saying "I miss you"
But when we talked too
All them grown folk things
Separation brings
You never let me know it
You never let it show because
You loved me and obviously
There's so much more left to say
If you were with me today face to face

I never knew I could hurt like this
And everyday life goes on like
"I wish I could talk to you for awhile"
"I wish I could find a way try not to cry"
As time goes by
And as soon as you reach the better place
Still I'll give the world to see your face
And I'm right here next to you
But it's like you gone too soon
Now the hardest thing to do is say bye bye

Bye bye bye bye bye bye (x3)
Bye bye

And you never got the chance to see how good I've done
And you never got to see me back at number one
I wish that you were here to celebrate together
I wish that we could spend the holidays together

I remember when you used to tuck me in at night
With the Teddy Bear you gave me that I held so tight
I thought you were so strong and make it through whatever
It's so hard to accept the fact you're gone forever

I never knew I could hurt like this
And everyday life goes on like
"I wish I could talk to you for awhile"
"I wish I could find a way try not to cry"
As time goes by
And as soon as you reach the better place
Still I'll give the world to see your face
And I'm right here next to you
But it's like you gone too soon
Now the hardest thing to do is say bye bye

Bye bye bye bye bye bye (x3)
Bye bye

This is for my peoples who just lost somebody
Your best friend, your baby, your man or your lady
Put your hand way up high
We will never say bye (no, no, no)
Mamas, daddies, sisters, brothers, friends and cousins
This is for my peoples who lost their grandmothers
Lift your head to the sky 'cause we will never say bye

I never knew I could hurt like this
(I never knew it)
And everyday life goes on like
(Everyday of my life I wish)
"I wish I could talk to you for a while"
(I wish)
"I wish I could find a way try not to cry"
(I wish, I wish as time goes by)
As time goes by
And as soon as you reach the better place
(And as soon as you reach the better place)
Still I'll give the world to see your face
(Still I'll give the world to see your face)
And I'm right here next to you
(I am right here next to you)
But it's like you gone too soon
Now the hardest thing to do is say bye bye
(Now the hardest thing to do is say bye bye)
(Is hard to say bye bye, bye bye, bye bye)
(So c'mon, somebody say it with me, wave with hands up high)
(Hey, cause this is for my peoples who just lost somebody)
(So this is for everybody)
(Just lift your head to the sky 'cause we will never say goodbye)

Leona Lewis - Better In Time



It's been the longest winter without you
I didn't know where to turn to
See, somehow I can't forget you
After all that we've been through

Going coming thought I heard a knock
Who's there, no one
Thinking that I deserve it
Now I realise that I really didn't know
If you didn't notice, you mean everything
Quickly, I'm learning to love again
All I know is I'm gon' be ok

Thought I couldn't live without you
It's gonna hurt when it heals too, oh yeah
(It'll all get better in time)
And even though I really love you
I'm gonna smile cause I deserve to, ooh
(It'll all get better in time)

I couldn't turn on the TV
Without something there to remind me
Was it all that easy
To just put aside your feelings

If I'm dreaming don't wanna laugh
Hurt my feelings but that's the path
I believe in and I know that time will heal it
If you didn't notice, boy you meant everything
Quickly I'm learning, ooh to love again
All I know is I'm gon' be ok

Thought I couldn't live without you
It's gonna hurt when it heals too, oh yeah
(It'll all get better in time)
And even though I really love you
I'm gonna smile cause I deserve to, ooh
(It'll all get better in time)

Since there's no more you and me
(No more you and me)
It's time I let you go, so I can be free
And live my life how it should be
(No no no, no no)
No matter how hard it is
I'll be fine without you
Yes I will

Thought I couldn't live without you
It's gonna hurt when it heals too, oh
(It'll all get better in time)
And even though I really love you
I'm gonna smile cause I deserve to, yes I do
(It'll all get better in time) (x2)

Leona Lewis - Stop Crying Your Heart Out



Hold up, hold on, don't be scared
You'll never change what's been and gone
May your smile shine on, don't be scared
Your destiny may keep you warm

Cause all of the stars have faded away
Just try not to worry
You'll see them someday
Take what you need
And be on your way
And stop crying your heart out

Get up (get Up)
Come on (come On)
Why you scared? (I'm not scared)
You'll never change what's been and gone

Cause all of the stars have faded away
Just try not to worry
You'll see them someday
Take what you need
And be on your way
And stop crying your heart out

Cause all of the stars have faded away
Just try not to worry
You'll see them someday
Take what you need
And be on your way
And stop crying your heart out

When all of the stars were faded away
Just try not to worry
You'll see us someday
Just take what you need
And be on your way
And stop crying your heart out

Stop crying your heart out (x3)
