"Sometimes I Cry" - Chris Stapleton

 

There are days

That I can walk around

Like I'm alright

And I pretend

To wear a smile on my face

And I can keep the pain

From coming out of my eyes

 

But sometimes

Sometimes

Sometimes I cry

Cry

Sometimes I cry

When I can't do nothing else

 

Everybody

Keeps telling me to move on

Oh, but I can't seem

To go anywhere without you

Cause ever since

And every single night you been gone

 

But sometimes

Sometimes

Sometimes I cry

Cry

Sometimes I cry

When I can't do nothing else

 

Sometimes I cry

Sometimes I cry

Sometimes I cry

When I can't do nothing else

 

 

:'( :'( :'(

"Orchid" - Rosie Carney

 

My orchid has died

I left it inside

Away from the sun

When the birds did not come

 

I'm sorry

For the things that I can’t do for you

But in the morning

I will write another song for you

 

And we collect stones

From a man who breaks them all up

To replace our bones

When there's no more wine in our cups

 

I'm sorry

For the things that I can’t do for you

But in the morning

I will write another song for you

Song for you

Song for you

"Edge of the Dark" - Armon Jay

 

On the edge of the dark

I wait for the sun to rise

Oh, there's still a little light that shines

Deep in my tired eyes

 

And when I sleep

I will dream of the sweeter things

Cause there's still a little light that shines

Deep in my tired eyes

 

On The edge of the dark

I will wait for the sun to rise

Cause there's still a little light that shines

Deep in my tired eyes

 

And when I sleep

I will dream of the sweeter things

Cause there's still a little light that shines

Deep in my tired eyes

"The Nightingale" - Jennifer Warnes

 

Yesterday I thought that I walked alone

And that love was just a memory

But a nightingale followed me back home

Where my love was waiting there for me

 

I had lost my faith as lovers often do

When the storm clouds gather overhead

But a nightingale sang a note so true

That I knew I'd lost my fear instead

 

And to think that I said love was for fools

And that time would never heal these old wounds

But the nightingale saved a prayer for me

In the twilight he played a faithful tune

 

I have heard the lark over in the vale

And I've heard the lonesome whippoorwill

But the sweetest song is the nightingale's

And I know I'll never get my fill

 

And to think that I said love was for fools

And that time would never heal these old wounds

But the nightingale saved a prayer for me

In the twilight he played a faithful tune

 

But the nightingale saved a prayer for me

In the twilight he played a faithful tune

"She Knows" - Just Jinjer

 

chengdu-panda-base-5-2c1f2598-79e8-40ac-aac5-cb48748affb4.jpg?height=1080

 

She falls asleep through all the noise

For all I know we feel the same

She finds all my weaknesses

 

She knows just what to do

She knows just what to do

Only yesterday

Speaks for yesterday

 

And where she lies there is no sound

Oh, for all I know

You know I'm feeling it more and more

We dream the same

 

Sometimes she comes undone

But she finds all my weaknesses

 

She knows just what to do

She knows just what to do

Only yesterday

Speaks for yesterday

Only yesterday

Speaks for yesterday

 

Every part of me

Wholeheartedly

I wouldn't dream of anyone else

Anyone else

:-*

 

She knows just what to do

She knows just what to do

Only yesterday

British research company Mindlab International has studied the influence of music on people. As part of the study, 40 women solved complex stress puzzles to different music. Their blood pressure, heart rate, respiration rate and brain activity were recorded.

As a result, it turned out that the background listening to the song "Weightless" group Marconi Union, the majority of participants in the experiment 65% decreased the level of stress hormone — cortisol. The song was 11% more effective at reducing blood pressure, heart rate, and breathing speed than the works of Mozart, hits by Adele, Coldplay, and Enya.

"Summer Storm" - Joel P. West

 

They burned that hillside black

They lay the maple down on its back

For just one stardust stone

Sleeping innocent below

 

But they'll run when the warm rain comes

Roaring with the thunder

I'll rise up from the murky mud

When the summer storm begins the flood

 

I'll hide way up high

Until the water runs down the pike

To wash aside all the parasites

And take the valley back alive

 

The tug flows and the rubbish floats

To hang up on the high oak

The power goes to the undergrowth

When the summer storm begins to blow

 

Free me, let me go

They don't recognize a precious stone

I'll lay low till the wet wind blows

To take me tumbling down the road

 

The wood vines make it hard to fly

The anchor holds my rope down

There's no use trying to make it out alive

And like a summer storm I got to roam

"The Furthest Star" - Amy Macdonald

 

The furthest star in the sky

Well, that's the one that passed me by

I tried to wish upon that star

It didn't get me very far

 

It fell on empty ears

It fell on empty hearts

And my dreams

They fell apart

 

I'm always wishing I was someone else

I'm always hoping I can sell myself

 

[CHORUS:]

But I'll be free for what I believe

And I won't sell my soul just to achieve my goal

And I've been holding back the tears

Dreaming all these years

And I'll sing from the heart if you'll listen to me

Everything I do is what I believe

 

The lights went out across the world

And your house of cards came tumbling down

Cause nothing stays and nothing sticks

When you're roaming with the lunatics

 

But my star in the darkest sky

Twinkles and watches while the other stars die

Upon your empty ears and empty hearts

 

I'm always wishing I was someone else

But I've given up the ghost

I will never sell myself

 

But I'll be free for what I believe

And I won't sell my soul just to achieve my goal

And I've been holding back the tears

Dreaming all these years

And I'll sing from the heart if you'll listen to me

Everything I do is what I believe

 

The furthest star in the sky

Well that's the one that passed me by

I tried to wish upon that star

It didn't get me very far :-\

"Unbroken Chain" - Grateful Dead

https://youtu.be/cTwXBEa_Tuch

 

Blue light rain

Oh, unbroken chain

Looking for familiar faces

In an empty window pane

 

Listening for the secret

Searching for the sound

But I could only hear the preacher

And the baying of his hounds

 

Willow sky

Oh, I walk and wonder why

They say love your brother

But you will get it when you try

 

Roll you down the line, boy

Drop you for a loss

Ride you down on a cold railroad

And nail you to a cross

 

November and more

As I wait for the score

They're telling me forgiveness

Is the key to every door

 

A slow winter day

A night like forever

Sink like a stone

Float like a feather

 

Lilac rain

Unbroken chain

Song of the saw-whet owl

Out on the mountain

It'll drive you insane

Listening to the winds howl

 

Unbroken chain

Of sorrow and pearls

 

Unbroken chain

Of sky and sea

 

Unbroken chain

Of the western wind

 

Unbroken chain

Of you and me

"From The Ashes"

Martina McBride

 

My right hand holds matches

My left holds my past

I hope the wind catches

And burns it down fast

 

I'm gonna step into the fire

With my failures and my shame

And wave goodbye to yesterday

As I dance among the flames

 

So don't try to save me now

Let the walls of my world all burn down

Just stand back and wait

Till the smoke finally passes

And I will rise

From the ashes

From the ashes

From the ashes

 

For all that I'm losing

Much more will I gain

The hard part is choosing

To change what needs changed

 

And my step will be much lighter

With these demons off my chest

I'm born a better spirit

And lay the old to rest

 

So don't try to save me now

Let the walls of my world all burn down

Just stand back and wait

Till the smoke finally passes

And I will rise

From the ashes

From the ashes

From the ashes

 

And I'll walk away stronger

I will be flying

Higher and truer

Than I've flown before

 

My right hand holds matches

My left holds my past

I hope the wind catches

And burns it down fast

"Boats and Birds"

Gregory and the Hawk

 

width=400 height=273https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/thumb/msid-57465293,imgsize-842571,width-400,resizemode-4/57465293.jpg[/img]

 

If you be my star

I'll be your sky

You can hide underneath me

And come out at night

 

When I turn jet black

And you show off your light

I live to let you shine

I live to let you shine

 

But you can skyrocket away from me

And never come back if you find another galaxy

Far from here with more room to fly

Just leave me your stardust to remember you by

 

If you be my boat

I'll be your sea

A depth of pure blue

Just to probe curiosity

 

Ebbing and flowing

And pushed by a breeze

I live to make you free

I live to make you free

 

But you can set sail to the west if you want to

And past the horizon till I can't even see you

Far from here where the beaches are wide

Just leave me your wake to remember you by

 

If you be my star

I'll be your sky

You can hide underneath me

And come out at night

 

When I turn jet black

And you show off your light

I live to let you shine

I live to let you shine

 

But you can skyrocket away from me

And never come back if you find another galaxy

Far from here with more room to fly

Just leave me your stardust to remember you by

 

Stardust to remember you by

Finding more great songs by Brandi Carlile.  I like this one a lot.

 

”Pride and Joy”

Brandi Carlile

 

 

"Pride and Joy"

 

Time of day I can't recall

 

Nice one, Seltz.  Honestly, there aren't many of hers that I don't like, she's a great songwriter as well as singer!  You might also like Amy Macdonald, I've put a few down already and one or two more on their way soon, stay tuned. ;D

 

Thanks for the recommendation, abcd.  I listened to a few and the latest you posted.  :thumbsup:  She seems very popular on YouTube.

"Just Killing Time"

Black Label Society

 

I sit reflecting

I feel the end has begun

It seems my days now mirror

The setting sun

 

So many places that I have been

This ride that was long

Seems so short

In terms of now and then

 

For all that has been

And all that is

And all that's to be

Lord, I'm just killing time

And time's killing me

 

Dead man breathing

Just taking up space

Calloused and weathered

Like the lines on one's face

 

Dead man breathing

My conscience is bare

The lining of my soul is torn

Yet I no longer care

 

For all that has been

And all that is

And all that's to be

Lord, I'm just killing time

And time's killing me

 

For all that has been

And all that is

And all that's to be

Lord, I'm just killing time

And time's killing me

"Canary" - Joy Williams

;)

 

There’s a shadow hanging heavy

There’s a cold chill in my bones

It’s a steep road, and I am weary

It’s a long, long way from home

 

But I will not shut my eyes

No, I will not fall silent

Canary in the mine

Oh I will, Honey, I will

I will sing

I will sing

 

There's a madness in a cavern

There’s a darkness that can blind

Where it's every man for himself

No one’s getting out alive

 

But I will not shut my eyes

No, I will not fall silent

Canary in the mine

Oh I will, ooh Honey, I will

I will sing

I will sing

 

Sing, sing, sing

Sing, sing, sing

Sing, sing, sing

Canary sing

Sing, sing, sing

Come on

Sing, sing, sing

Sing, sing, sing

Canary sing

 

Oh I will sing

I will sing

 

There’s a shadow hanging o'erhead

There’s a cold chill in my bones

"Got to Begin Again" - Billy Joel

 

Well, so here I am at the end of the road

Where do I go from here

I always figured it would be like this

Still nothing seems to be quite clear

 

All the words have been spoken

And the prophecy fulfilled

But I just can't decide where to go

 

Yes, it's been quite a day

And I should go to sleep

But tomorrow I will wake up and I'll know

 

That I've got to begin again

Though I don't know how to start

Yes, I've got to begin again

And it's hard

 

Well, it's been quite a while since I lifted my head

And I'm sure the light will hurt my eyes

I see the way that I've been spending my days

And reality has caught me by surprise

 

I was dreaming of tomorrow

So I sacrificed today

And it sure was a grand waste of time

 

And despite all the truth

That's been thrown in my face

I just can't get you out of my mind

 

But I've got to begin again

Though I don't know how to start

Yes, I've got to begin again

And it's hard

Yes, it's hard

"Dreamlands" - Still Corners

 

I know there's a long road

They told us it is unknown

If we wait too long then we'll never go

I know where the sky is gold

 

It's getting dark but we're so close

It seems far but we're not alone

If we turn back now then we'll never know

We'll go where the sky is gold

 

Dreamlands

Dreamlands

Dreamlands

"The One" - Kodaline

 

http://p1.img.cctvpic.com/photoAlbum/page/performance/img/2017/12/10/1512920815493_150.jpg

 

Tell me, tell me that you want me

And I'll be yours completely

For better or for worse

 

I know we'll have our disagreements

Be fighting for no reason.

I wouldn't change it for the world

 

Cause I knew the first day that I met you

I was never gonna let you

Let you slip away

 

And I still remember feeling nervous

And trying to find the words to

Get you here today

 

[CHORUS:]

You make my heart feel like it's summer

When the rain is pouring down.

You make my whole world feel so right

When it's wrong

That's how I know you are the one

That's why I know you are the one

 

Life is easy to be scared of

With you I am prepared for

What is yet to come

 

Cause our two hearts will make it easy

Joining up the pieces

Together making one

 

[CHORUS]

 

When we are together

You make me feel like my mind is free

And my dreams are reachable

 

You know I never ever believed in love

I believed one day that you would come along

And free me

 

You make my heart feel like it's summer

When the rain is pouring down.

You make my whole world feel so right

When it's wrong

That's how I know you are the one

That's why I know you are the one

 

That's why I know you are the one

That's how I know you are the one

” Counting Stones”

Hemming

 

 

“ Counting Stones”

 

Is there something that I can't see?

Something that just keeps haunting me

A stranger to the backs of my hands

So hard to explain, when you don't understand

 

No I don't know what I'm doing

Tell me what I've become

Cause I'm taking myself for granted

So scared I'm giving up

 

I never thought that you could love me

I never know what I deserve

I reach for things so far above me

To find out what I'm worth

 

This time, I want to break

This time, I want to break

I can see right through the ground

And I'm counting every single stone

 

That's how far I let you get me down

I'm not giving up, I'm letting go

I don't know what I'm supposed to do

I can't go through this again

 

I'm not sure I could ever love you

The way I always did

This time, I want you to break

This time, I want you to break

 

Cause I've held my head up for so long

I've had all I can take

This time, I want you to break

 

I won't allow myself to tell you

I won't allow myself to trust you

I won't allow myself to give in

I can't allow myself to love you

 

The walls are falling down around us

The walls are falling down again

I won't allow myself to tell you

But I don't want to see the end

 

This time, I want to break

This time, I want you to break

This time, I want it all to break
