" Superwoman "

Rebecca Ferguson

 

 

 

"Superwoman"

 

I'm not wearing a cape, these are just regular clothes

And I'm praying to God, come on lessen this load

Smiling through the bad times, but it's all just for show

Saving my tears for when I'm alone

 

And I lose my shit every now and then

I break down big then I start again

 

Never, never said I'm a superwoman

Never said, I never said it

Never ever said I was more than coping

Never did, I never did

Maybe I'm mad, maybe I'm all cried out

Maybe I'm scared, but I'm coming 'round

No, I never, never said I'm a superwoman

 

Dropping the mask, uncovering my soul

Loving my scars, letting go of control

Seeing beauty through the ashes everywhere I go

One minute I'm strong, the next I don't know

 

And I lose my shit every now and then

I break down big then I start again

 

Never, never said I'm a superwoman

I never said, I never said it

Never ever said I was more than coping

I never did, I never did

Maybe I'm mad, and maybe I'm all cried out

And maybe I'm scared, but I'm coming 'round

No, I never, never said I was more than human

 

And I wish I could fly

Take me away

Take me away

Just fly

Up and escape sometimes

I wish I was strong

Stronger than this aching

It's breaking me down

 

And I never ever said I'm a superwoman

I never said, I never said it

Never ever said I was more than coping

I never did, I never did

And maybe I'm mad, I'm all cried out

And maybe I get scared, but I'll be coming 'round and 'round

And 'round and 'round and 'round and 'round and 'round and 'round

All cried out

And no I never ever said, oh

Coming 'round

No, no, I never ever said I'm a superwoman

I'm not superwoman

" Too Many Rivers To Cross"

Sia

 

 

 

"Too Many Rivers To Cross"

 

Many rivers to cross

But I can't seem to find my way over

Wandering I am lost

As I travel along the white cliffs of dover

 

Many rivers to cross

And it's only my will that keeps me alive

I've been licked, washed up for years

And I merely survive because of my pride

 

And this loneliness won't leave me alone

It's such a drag to be on your own

My woman left me and she didn't say why

Well, I guess I'll have to cry

 

Many rivers to cross

 

But just where to begin I'm playing for time

There have been times I find myself

Thinking of committing some dreadful crime

 

Yes, I've got many rivers to cross

But I can't seem to find my way over

Wandering, I am lost

As I travel along the white cliffs of Dover

 

Yes, I've got many rivers to cross

And I merely survive because of my will...

" Take You Everywhere I Go"

Birdy

 

 

"Take You Everywhere I Go"

 

Sometimes

When I'm way above the clouds

I cry

At the world as I look

Down

 

Up high

Just a shadow on the ground

Oh, would you find me here?

 

Some nights

As we glide over

The sea

I think of you dreaming

In your sleep

 

Your thoughts

They must be so far away

Oh, could they reach me here?

 

Oh far away I

I know oh far away I know

But I take you everywhere I go

I take you everywhere I go

 

Oh far away I

I know oh far away I know

But I take you everywhere I go

I take you everywhere I go

 

We drive

And the rhythm makes me numb

Still skies

As tomorrow quiet

Becomes

 

And I know

That this road has just begun

But it reminds me

That

 

Oh far away I

I know oh far away I know

But I take you everywhere I go

I take you everywhere I go

 

And of far away I

I know oh far away I know

But I take you everywhere I go

 

A new day and I'm looking down

A new place, and you

Are on my mind

 

I take you everywhere I go

Everywhere I go

 

This journey is harder than I thought

I am still on long end of this

And to be strong

But you are on my mind

 

I take you everywhere I go

 

❤️❤️❤️

"Falling Through Time" - Don McLean

 

I can't answer the questions you ask me

I don't know what to say

The answers are somewhere lost in the stars

When the night has turned to day

But I know if the silence of night could be here

It would drift through my soul and calm all my fear

And I could reach out and draw you so near to me

 

Touch me and warm me and I will lie still

And all that you ask me to give you I will

One living moment we'll have for our own

A brief flash of time that we spent unalone

But you ask me for nothing and give what you can

And we're wrapped in a pillow of sleep once again

And my memory drifts through the universe when we are one

 

Closely we're falling through time

 

And the earth will turn in the silence of space

Always in motion yet always in place

And all things will change yet remain what they are

And far will be near and near will be far

And the ages will darken and blend into time

And all that is poetry will no longer rhyme

But our moment together is forever sublime

 

For the time has arrived when we must understand

That we're lost in a void on this sad speck of sand

And nobody knows where we are, no one cares

And the tears that we shed in the dark no one shares

And the mad men who plunder this world for their fame

Have forgotten that no one remembers their name

But time and the universe are always the same

 

Closely we're falling through time

"Sometimes It's A Bitch" - Stevie Nicks

https://youtu.be/MoAVMNAxL-w

 

Well I've run through rainbows and castles of candy

I've cried a river of tears from the pain

I try to dance with what life has to hand me

My partner's been pleasure, my partner's been pain

 

There are days when I swear I could fly like an eagle

And dark desperate hours that nobody sees

My arms stretched triumphant on top of the mountain

My head in my hands, down on my knees

 

[CHORUS:]

Sometimes it's a bitch, sometimes it's a breeze

Sometimes love's blind and sometimes it sees

Sometimes it's roses and sometimes it's weeds

Sometimes it's a bitch, sometimes it's a breeze

 

I've reached in darkness and come out with treasure

I've laid down with love and I woke up with lies

What's it all worth, only the heart can measure

It's not what's in the mirror but what's left inside

 

[CHORUS]

 

You gotta take it as it comes

Sometimes it don't come easy

 

I've run through rainbows and castles of candy

And I've cried a river of tears from the pain

I tried to dance with what life had to hand me

And if I could, I'd do it all over again

 

Sometimes it's a bitch, sometimes it's a breeze

Sometimes love's blind and sometimes it sees

Sometimes it's roses and sometimes it's weeds

Sometimes it's a bitch, sometimes it's a breeze

 

Sometimes the picture just ain't what it seems

You get what you want but it's not what you need

Sometimes it's a bitch, sometimes it's a breeze

Well it's a breeze, it's a breeze

It's a breeze

"Fly Like A Bird" - Boz Scaggs

There was a howl that night

A howling like they'd never heard before

A cry so loud old granddad almost hit the door

He said, "I love this child

As much as any one that she ever bore

But I thank the Lord we won't be having anymore"

 

Then the baby heard the sweetest sound he'd ever heard

In tones so beautiful he hung on every word

She sang, "Hush my love

Granny's little dove is gonna take to the sky"

It was on such a night

He learned to fly like a bird

 

Now the years have passed and memories come and go

He hears that voice that rocked him gently so

A calm will descend and there's peace

At the end of the darkest night

 

Sometimes I cry

Sometimes I fly like a bird

 

Now the years have passed and memories come and go

He hears that voice that rocked him gently so

The rain's gonna fall and the winds may blow

On the darkest night

 

Sometimes I cry

Sometimes I fly like a bird

 

A calm will descend and there's peace

At the end of the darkest night

 

Sometimes I cry

Sometimes I fly like a bird

"Together We Are One" - Delta Goodrem

Here we are sharing our lives

We made it through the good and bad times

And still we stand with hope in our hearts

No matter what we will play our part

 

And now we've come so far

One chance to touch a star

Go higher and higher

 

[CHORUS:]

Find your guiding inspiration

In a place where dreams are made

With a lifetime's preparation

There's no time to be afraid

Put our differences behind us

While we shine like the sun

See what we've all become

Together we are one

 

Deep inside your heart and soul

You've worked so hard to reach your goal

With every step, with every breath

You gave it all till there was nothing left

 

Seek out the strength to win

No thoughts of giving in

Go higher and higher

 

[CHORUS]

 

Together we are one

We are one

 

Find your guiding inspiration

In a place where dreams are made

With a lifetime's preparation

There's no time to be afraid

Put our differences behind us

While we shine like the sun

See what we've all become

Together we are one

 

See what we've all become

Together we are one

"You and I" - Kelly Sweet

https://youtu.be/ImJenxYZFRs

 

http://pbs.twimg.com/media/Cn-hN8SXYAA1Ap9.jpg

 

You and I

We're like colors in the sky

Our sun will set but always rise

You and I

 

And you and I

We're like rivers to the sea

What was you is now in me

You and I

 

I won't let you go

We are always together

Now and forever

(x2)

 

In my mind

You're still real enough to me

Even if it's only in my dreams

That I see you smile

 

Cause you and I

We're always mountains from the sand

Life can break us but we stand

Every time

 

Oh I won't let you go

We are always together

Now and forever

(x2)

 

Everything comes around

One day I'll hold you, I'll hold you

I miss you so much right now

But I'm with you, I'm with you

 

Cause I won't let you go

We are always together

 

I won't let you go

We are always together

Now and forever

(x2)

 

For now and forever

Now and forever

Now and forever

We are always together

 

You and I

You and I

You and I

"The Silicone Veil" - Susanne Sundfør

https://youtu.be/MyeFciT03i4

 

I'm a larva wrapped in silk

I am dying in burning flesh

Let me out

Let me ache

Let me out

Let me ache and itch

 

Get me out of this suit

I go to a funeral every day

I follow these people around

I follow these people like a rat's tail

I carry their caskets

I sing them good night

They're better off without me

 

Beauty is poisonous

Disruptive

Oh, heaven must be an iron rose

Unfolding

 

Oh, let me in

Let me out

Let me in

Let me out

 

This is a retirement

From plumbing the veins of rats and kings

Let the stars be my eyes then

Unchain the knuckles and latches

Unbutton my wrists

 

My skin's so thin you can see black holes within

My eyes so clear they light up the sky

And sometimes I'll bend into the silicone veil

And enter this world again as a ghost

 

Beauty is poisonous

Disruptive

Oh, heaven must be an iron rose

Unfolding

 

Oh, let me in

Let me out

Let me in

Let me out

 

Let me out

Let me out

Let me out

Let me out

Let me out

"Last Note of Freedom" - David Coverdale

 

Here I am, burning man

Singing the song of my open soul

Will time pass me

All my dreams are heaven known

I don't wanna be cheated

I can't go on in a world where love is beaten

 

Rise up, burning man

Seize the wild, take command

Days of thunder see me shine

All my dreams turn out fine

 

I know the suffering will end, my friend 

When the last note of freedom

Is rung throughout the land

I know the hateful will burn

When the last note of freedom

Is heard throughout the land

 

I know the fear of dying

Heard from a meltdown blast

I know that, Lord have mercy

It soon will pass

 

I know it

I don't wanna be cheated

I can't go on in a world where love is beaten

I can't go on where love is defeated

I can't go on

 

I know the suffering will end, my friend

When the last note of freedom

Is rung throughout the land

I know the hateful will burn

When the last note of freedom

Is heard throughout the land

 

I know the fear of dying

Heard from a meltdown blast

I know that, Lord have mercy

It soon will pass

 

We need love

You gotta want it so bad

We need it now

So run for it fast

 

I know it

I don't wanna be cheated

I can't go on in a world where love's defeated

I know it

I can't go on

 

No, no, no, no, no, no, no

Where love is defeated.

Can't go on in a world where love's defeated

"Never Give Up On A Dream" - Rod Stewart

 

If there's doubt and you're cold

Don't you worry what the future holds

We've gotta have heroes to teach us all

To never give up on a dream

 

Claim the road, touch the sun

No force on earth could stop your run

When your heart bursts like the sun

Never, never give up on a dream

 

Shadows fall, daylight dies

Freedom never got a place to hide

Search forever, photo finish line

But never give up on your dream

 

Crazy notions fill your head

You gotta break all the records set

Push yourself until the end

But don't you ever give up on your dream

 

Now listen to me

You don't need no restrictions, yeah

You can't live on sympathy

You just need to go the distance

Oh the distance

That's all you need to be free

To be free, to be free, to be free

 

Sing a song for me, children

You don't need no restrictions yeah

You can't live on sympathy

You just need to go the distance

That's all you need to be free

 

Now listen to me

Inspiring all to never lose

It'll take a long, long time

Before they fill your shoes

It'll take somebody

Somebody who's a lot like you

Who never gave up on a dream

No, you never gave up on a dream

No, you never gave up on a dream

 

You never, never, never

Never give up on a dream

"That's Why I Call You My Friend"

Diana Ross

 

http://kids.poisson.org.uk/bears/images/pandacubs.jpg

 

Time after time

And any time at all

I could turn to you

With my back to the wall

And you would always give to me

All I asked of you

 

That's why I call you my friend

You will be my friend

Now till my life is ended

 

So many tears

That you have turned to smiles 

I can't believe we survived 

All the endless miles

Two hearts broken together

Will heal into one

 

That's why I call you my friend

You will be my friend

Now till my life is ended

 

Sweet love and tenderness

All our hopes and dreams

Will take us through the hard times

 

Let winter come

As cold as it will be

My arms are open wide

You can just run to me

As warm as any summer

I am here for you

 

That's why I call you my friend

You will be my friend

Now till my life is ended

As a friend

"Patterns" - Simon & Garfunkel

 

The night sets softly

With the hush of falling leaves

Casting shivering shadows

On the houses through the trees

 

And the light from a street lamp

Paints a pattern on my wall

Like the pieces of a puzzle

Or a child's uneven scrawl

 

Up a narrow flight of stairs

In a narrow little room

As I lie upon my bed

In the early evening gloom

 

Impaled on my wall

My eyes can dimly see

The pattern of my life

And the puzzle that is me

 

From the moment of my birth

To the instant of my death

There are patterns I must follow

Just as I must breathe each breath

 

Like a rat in a maze

The path before me lies

And the pattern never alters

Until the rat dies

 

And the pattern still remains

On the wall where darkness fell

And it's fitting that it should

For in darkness I must dwell

 

Like the color of my skin

Or the day that I grow old

My life is made of patterns

That can scarcely be controlled

"Easy to be Hard"

 

Three Dog Night

https://youtu.be/MgaXs7OlBIg

 

Cheryl Barnes

 

How can people be so heartless

How can people be so cruel

Easy to be hard

Easy to be cold

 

How can people have no feelings

How can they ignore their friends

Easy to be proud

Easy to say No

 

Especially people who care about strangers

Who care about evil and social injustice

Do you only care about being proud

How about a needed friend

I need a friend

 

How can people be so heartless

You know I'm hung up on you

Easy to be proud

Easy to say No

 

Especially people who care about strangers

Who care about evil and social injustice

Do you only care about being proud

How about a needed friend

I need a friend

 

How can people be so heartless

How can people be so cruel

Easy to be proud, easy to say No

Easy to be cold, easy to say No

 

Easy to give in

Easy to say No

Easy to be cold

Easy to say No

Much too easy to say No

"So Close To Magic" - Aquilo

 

Wouldn't you like to know

Just how I'm doing

It's been so long

This place feels just the same

Old and forgotten

This frozen sound

 

And the fire burns with great desire

As the stories start to flow

And we'll be drinking through memories

And laughing with enemies

We made back when we were so young

 

Cause I'm so close to magic

So close to home

Yeah, I'm so close to magic

So close to home

 

So won't you take the time

Try to remember

It's all in me

It's not hard for me to see

Just how forgotten

These days can be

 

And the fire burns with great desire

As the stories start to flow

And we'll be drinking through memories

And laughing with enemies

We made back when we were so young

 

Cause I'm so close to magic

So close to home

Yeah, I'm so close to magic

So close to home

"How it Feels to Fly" - Alicia Keys

 

Have you ever felt so strong

That it made you feel weak

Long days, long nights

And you just can't sleep

 

Have you ever been so sure

That it gave you cold feet

That you're floating on air

You can feel your heart beat

 

Well, I never knew this feeling never

Now I hope it stays and lasts forever

I am riding high, don't wanna come down

Hope my wings don't fail me now

And if I can touch the sky

I'd risk the fall

Just to know how it feels to fly

 

Say yeah yeah yeah yeah

Say yeah yeah yeah yeah

 

Have you ever felt so lost

But didn't know till you were found

Looking everywhere

But you finally see now

 

In the room full of people

Feels like no one's around

Got your head in the clouds

And your feet are off the ground

 

Say, I never knew this feeling never

Now I hope it stays and lasts forever

I am riding high, don't wanna come down

Hope my wings don't fail me now

And if I can touch the sky

I'd risk the fall

Just to know how it feels to fly

 

Say yeah yeah yeah yeah

Say yeah yeah yeah yeah

We get to go higher

Higher

Higher

Higher

 

I am riding high, don't wanna come down

Hope my wings don't fail me now

And if I can touch the sky

I'd risk the fall

Just to know how it feels to fly

"Oceans Away"

 

Roger Daltry

 

Philip Goodhand-Tait

 

 

Don't wake me up

If I should be dreaming

I don't want to miss

One minute of this dream

 

Don't worry now

Cause you're not dreaming

I'll love you always

Wherever you'll be 

 

Oceans away

Go where you may

And love will be with you

Oceans away

And love will be with you

Oceans away

 

The night is cold

But day is certain

No twilight zone

Can last very long

 

Darkness, my friend

I hide in your curtain

If you're not here with me

Please let me dream on

 

Oceans away

Go where you may

But love will be with you

Oceans away

Love will be with you

Oceans away

 

Oceans away

Go where you may

But love will be with you

Oceans away

Love will be with you

Oceans away

"No One Listening" - Blue October

 

Dead or cold

Nothing as it seems

Fly so far

But someone clipped the wings

 

I could beat my throat

It only turned to screams

When was the point that God knew

There was no one listening

 

There was no one listening

Was no one listening

 

In a sweaty daze

I close my eyes and sneak off to the sea

I'm drinking blood rain skies

And dream of family

 

And I ask the world, “Don’t turn”

It only turns to screams

When was the point that God knew

There was no one listening

 

There was no one listening

Was no one listening

"Dreaming Fields" - Trisha Yearwood

 

Oh, the sun rolls down big as a miracle

And fades from the Midwest sky

And the corn and the trees

Wave in the breeze

As if to say goodbye

 

Oh, my grandfather stood right here

As a younger man in 1943

And with his sweat and his tears

The rain and the years

He grew life from the soil and seed

 

Oh, I'm going down to the dreaming fields

But what will be my harvest now

Where every tear that falls on a memory feels

Like rain on a rusted plow

Rain on a rusted plow

 

And these fields they dream

Of wheat in the summer time

Grand children running free

And the bales of hay at the end of the day

And the scarecrow that just scared me

 

Now the houses they grow

Like weeds in a flower bed

This morning the silo fell

Seems the only way a man can live off the land

These days is to buy and sell

 

So I'm going down to the dreaming fields

But what will be my harvest now

Where every tear that falls on a memory feels

Like rain on a rusted plow

Rain on a rusted plow

 

Like the rain on a roof on the porch by the kitchen

Where my grandmother sings I can hear if I listen

Running down, running down

To the end of the water low

This will be my harvest now

 

And the sun rolls down big as a miracle

And fades from the Midwest sky

And the corn and the trees wave in the breeze

As if to say goodbye

As if to say goodbye

"Pack Up Your Sorrows"

 

Richard Farina & Mimì Baez

 

Joan Baez

 

Peter, Paul And Mary

 

No use crying

Talking to a stranger

Naming the sorrow you've seen

Too many bad times

Too many sad times

Nobody knows what you mean

 

[CHORUS:]

Well, if somehow

You could pack up your sorrows

And give them all to me

You would lose them

I know how to use them

Give them all to me

 

No use rambling

Walking in the shadows

Trailing a wandering star

No one beside you

No one to guide you

And nobody knows who you are

 

[CHORUS]

 

No use roaming

Lying by the roadside

Seeking a satisfied mind

Too many highways

Too many byways

And nobody's walking behind

 

But, if somehow

You could pack up your sorrows

And give them all to me

You would lose them

I know how to use them

Give them all to me

"Every Day Is Yours To Win" - R.E.M.

 

With the walk and the talk

And the tick tock clock

With the rock and the roll

And the bridge and the toll

 

With the brilliance and the light

With the stink and the hype

And the road ahead of you

 

I cannot tell a lie

It's not all cherry pie

But it's all there waiting for you

Yeah, you

 

Heya, heya, heya

I know

Heya, heya, heya

I know

 

With the war and the woes

And the subterfuge

Does it all look bitter and blue

 

Well, I'm nothing but confused

With nothing left to lose

And if you buy that

I've got a bridge for you

 

Heya, heya, heya

I know

Heya, heya, heya

I know

 

Every day is new again

Every day is yours to win

And that's how heroes are made

 

I wanted to win

So I said it again

That's how heroes are made

 

Heya, heya, heya

I know

Heya, heya, heya

I know

"If I Could Only Fly"

 

Joe Nichols & Lee Ann Womack

https://youtu.be/hZ_aNhB7VFc

 

Merle Haggard & Willie Nelson

 

 

I almost felt you touching me just now

I wish I knew which way to turn and go

I feel so good and then I feel so bad

I wonder what I ought to do

 

If I could only fly

If I could only fly

I'd bid this place goodbye

To come and be with you

 

But I can hardly stand

And I got nowhere to run

Another sinking sun

And one more lonely night

 

The wind keeps blowing somewhere every day

Tell me things get better somewhere up away

Just dismal thinking on a dismal day

And sad songs for us to bear

 

If I could only fly

If I could only fly

I'd bid this place goodbye

To come and be with you

   

You know sometimes I write happy songs

Then some little thing goes wrong

I wish they all could make you smile

Coming home soon and I want to stay

Maybe we could somehow get away

I wish you could come with me when I go again

 

If I could only fly

If we could only fly

I'd bid this place goodbye

To come and be with you

 

But I can hardly stand

I got nowhere to run

Another sinking sun

And no more lonely nights
