"The Storm" - Patrick Watson

 

He found himself out to the road

With dust up to his nose

Put that anchor down

To find a place where he could go

 

Cause he was looking for

The shelter from the storm

You were looking for a place

That you could call your own

 

You kept on now walking

Past the signs you used to see

Kept on getting used

To dropping anchor in the sea

 

Cause you're looking for

The shelter from the storm

Looks like news that storm

Is coming closer every day now

 

Well, I drove myself into a town

The roads were paved with gold

Eyes wide open, shutters closed

Just waiting for my time now

 

The sorrow's hiding underground

The rain was falling upside down

Oh cause I'm looking for

The shelter from the storm

Cause she's getting closer every day

 

The storm is getting closer every day

The storm is getting closer every day

The storm is getting closer every day

Every day

"The Story Ain't Over" - Avantasia

 

Rousing from dreams

Craving for someone

Wept himself to sleep

He's waiting, no sign from above

Where is the love

 

The hourglass in pieces

Dashed to the wall

The future is over

Tomorrow's been slipping away

Now nothing remains, no

 

He'd known it won't last forever

She'd go ahead for a while

 

When you open your eyes

When you gaze at the sky

When you look to the stars

As they shut down the night

You know the story ain't over

 

When you open your eyes

When you gaze at the sky

When you look to the stars

As they shut down the night

You feel the story ain't over

 

Where is the candle

In this lonesome night

Angel, why are you so wayward

Abandoning me

And trying my belief

 

Well, life is not words

And tongue is not answers

And we only can see a reason

Why would it mean

That it's not meant to be

 

He'd known it won't last forever

She'd go ahead for a while

 

When you open your eyes

When you gaze at the sky

When you look to the stars

As they shut down the night

You know the story ain't over

 

When you open your eyes

When you gaze at the sky

When you look to the stars

As they shut down the night

You feel the story ain't over

"One Too Many Mornings"

 

Joan Baez

 

Bob Dylan & Johnny Cash

 

Down the street the dogs are barking

And the day is getting dark

As the night comes in a-falling

All the dogs will lose their bark

 

And the silent night will shatter

From the thoughts inside my mind

And I'm one too many mornings

And a thousand miles behind

 

At the crossroads of my doorstep

My eyes they start to fade

And I turn my head back to the room

Where my love and I have laid

 

And I gaze back to the street

The sidewalk and the sign

And I'm one too many mornings

And a thousand miles behind

 

It's a restless hungry feeling

That don't mean no one no good

When everything I'm saying

You can say it just as good

 

You were right from your side

But I was right from mine

We're both just one too many mornings

And a thousand miles behind

"Tomorrow" - Europe

https://youtu.be/3Ta3Q5_4nhU

Will you be there beside me

If the world falls apart

And will all of our moments

Remain in your heart

Will you be there to guide me

All the way through

I wonder will you

 

Walk by my side

And follow my dreams

And bear with my pride

As strong as it seems

Will you be there

Tomorrow

 

Will you be there beside me

As time goes on by

And be there to hold me

Whenever I cry

Will you be there to guide me

All the way through

I wonder will you

 

Walk by my side

And follow my dreams

And bear with my pride

As strong as it seems

Will you be there

Oh, now will you be there

Will you be there

Tomorrow

"Fly Before You Fall" - Cynthia Erivo

 

I see the way that you look

When you hear his name

I see his picture up in your frame

And you refuse to admit

You still miss him but it's okay

 

You're a tower of strength

When you're breaking down

But through the wall I can feel your cry

And when it's quiet you're screaming inside

 

And I break as I hear you

Loud as a bomb

Wanting a shoulder to cry on

I hear you

Tumbling fast

Here and now

You're afraid

Don't you worry

I'll teach you to fly before you fall away

 

It's in the moments

When you're left all on your own

And it hits you from out of nowhere

You try to hide it sometimes unsuccessfully

With a smile that fades quickly

 

Your resistance to sadness is futile

But you're a fighter

Can't stand defeat  :thumbsup:

You're a magician at hiding the hurt from you

 

But I see and I hear you

Loud as a bomb

Wanting a shoulder to cry on

I hear you

Tumbling fast

Here and now

You're afraid

Don't be scared

 

Don't be scared

Cause I hear you

Loud as a bomb

Wanting a shoulder to cry on

I hear you

Tumbling fast

Here and now

You're afraid

Don't you worry

I'll teach you to fly before you fall

"To Be Alone" - Ben Howard

 

I don’t need nobody

Oh I don’t need nobody

Oh I don’t need nobody

To be alone

To be alone

 

And in the darkness

A shallow poison it has grown

I bite my tongue

There’s a fever I will not let it show

 

I don’t need nobody

Oh I don’t need nobody

Oh I don’t need nobody

To be alone

To be alone

 

And in the darkness

A shallow poison it has grown

I bite my tongue

There’s a fever I will not let it show

 

I don’t need nobody

Oh I don’t need nobody

Oh I don’t need nobody

To be alone

To be alone

"Nice, Naive And Beautiful" - Plumb

 

She's only known heartache and pain

But she's never known a pain like this

She stands alone defending her name

When all that she's done is be who she is

Well is it so wrong to be who we are

When all she's done is fail

 

Cause she's so nice, naive and beautiful

Why does she get taken advantage

Why does she live in a world so cold

She takes advantage

Of the nice, naive and the beautiful

 

Cold is the throne of her hardened heart

No one has seen the softest part

Day after night she holds an ache

And won't budge to show this secret place

Well is it so wrong to hang on to hurt

Maybe she could set it free

 

Cause she's so nice, naive and beautiful

Why did she get taken for granted

Why did she live in a world so cold

He took advantage

Of the nice, naive and the beautiful

 

If you've been there, you know

If you're still there, hang on

We're all dealt our lumps of coal

What you do with it can turn beautiful

Well there's a life outside of your madness

And there's a face behind every scar

 

But there's a love overflowing with gladness

Get out of that place

That's restraining your love

I said get out of that place

That's restraining your love

"Spread Your Wings" - Queen

 

Sammy was low

Just watching the show

Over and over again

Knew it was time

He'd made up his mind

To leave his dead life behind

 

His boss said to him

"Boy, you'd better begin

To get those crazy notions

Right out of your head

Sammy, who do you think that you are

You should've been sweeping up the Emerald bar"

 

Spread your wings

And fly away, fly away, far away

Spread your little wings

And fly away, fly away, far away

Pull yourself together

Cause you know you should do better

That's because you're a free man

 

He spends his evenings alone in his hotel room

Keeping his thoughts to himself

He'd be leaving soon

Wishing he was miles and miles away

Nothing in this world

Nothing would make him stay

 

Since he was small

Had no luck at all

Nothing came easy to him

Now it was time

He'd made up his mind

This could be my last chance

 

His boss said to him

"Now listen, boy

You're always dreaming

You've got no real ambition

You won't get very far

Sammy boy, don't you know who you are

Why can't you be happy at the Emerald bar"

 

So honey

Spread your wings

And fly away, fly away, far away

Spread your little wings

And fly away, fly away, far away

Pull yourself together

Cause you know you should do better

That's because you're a free man

Come on honey

"Message To Myself" - Melissa Etheridge

 

I'm sending out a message to myself

So that when I hear it on the radio

I will know that I am fine

I will know that I am love

 

I warned myself

Of the blackness in my chest

The razors in my heart

Would never rest

 

It's funny how you find

Just what you seek

Love is what you get

When love is what you speak

 

I'm sending out a message to myself

So that when I hear it on the radio

I will know that I am fine

I will know that I am love

 

I made every choice

Along the way

Each day I spent in hell

I chose to stay   ::) 

 

It's funny what you fear

Can make you weak

Truth is what you get

When truth is what you speak

 

I'm sending out a message to myself

So that when I hear it on the radio

I will know that I am fine

I will know that I am love

 

So if you are listening

I am just passing through

You can take some for yourself

Cause it works that way too

 

I will know that I am fine

I will know that I am love

 

I'm sending out a message to myself

So that when I hear it on the radio

I will know that I am fine

I will know that I am love

"Reach Out for Me"

 

Dionne Warwick

 

Olivia Newton-John

 

f35cc2ca57b37028ce3f3d17a3cf3730.jpg

 

When you go through a day

And the things that people say

They make you feel so small

They make you feel that

Your heart will just never stop aching

And when you just can't accept

The abuse you are taking

 

Darling reach out for me

Don't you worry I'll see you through

You just have to reach out for me

I'll be there and I'll comfort you

Oh yes I will

Comfort you and love you

How I'm gonna love you

 

When good friends prove untrue

And the things they do to you

They make you feel so bad

They make you feel that

You haven't a reason for living

 

So when you feel you

You could throw in the towel

And just give in

 

My darling reach out for me

Don't you worry I'll see you through

You just have to reach out for me

I'll be there and I'll comfort you

Oh yes I will

Comfort you and love you

How I'm gonna love you

 

Reach out

Reach out

Reach out

 

Please reach out

Reach out for me

Reach out

Oh reach out for me

"Eternity Road" - Moody Blues

 

Hark listen, here he comes

Hark listen, here he comes

Turning, spinning, catherine wheeling

Forever changing

There's no beginning

 

Speeding through a charcoal sky

Observe the truth we cannot hide

Traveling eternity road

What will you find there

Carrying your heavy load

Searching to find a piece of mind

 

You'll see us all around

You'll see us all around

Turning, spinning, catherine wheeling

Forever changing

There's no beginning

You're so very far from home

And so very much alone

 

Traveling eternity road

What will you find there

Carrying your heavy load

Searching to find a peace of mind

"Falling" - Florence + The Machine

 

I've fallen out of favor

And I've fallen from grace

Fallen out of trees

And I've fallen on my face

Fallen out of taxis

Out of windows too

Fell in your opinion

When I fell in love with you

 

Sometimes I wish for falling

Wish for the release

Wish for falling through the air

To give me some relief

Because falling's not a problem

When I'm falling I'm in peace

It's only when I hit the ground

It causes all the grief

 

This is a song for a scribbled out name

And my love keeps writing again and again

This is a song for a scribbled out name

And my love keeps writing again and again

And again, and again, and again

And again, and again

 

I danced myself up

And drunk myself down

Found people to love

Left people to drown

I'm not scared to jump

I'm not scared to fall

If there was nowhere to land

I wouldn't be scared

At all, at all, at all, at all

 

Sometimes I wish for falling

Wish for the release

Wish for falling through the air

To give me some relief

Because falling's not the problem

When I'm falling I'm in peace

It's only when I hit the ground

It causes all the grief

"Seagull" - Saturday Sun

Do you give much

Do you take more

Do you know what's good

Build your tower on the ladder

That I've no reason to climb for you

 

I sit by the shacks

And wait for my share

Then come home to you

Do you read much

Does this make sense

I've been saving this line for you

I'll save this line for you

 

Lone seagull flies into the waves

Oh, the sun goes down over me

 

I grew by the sea in Nova Scotia

Where my darling sings

Do you read much

Does this take you

And your time to be

I need more time to breathe

 

Lone seagull flies into the waves

Oh, the sun goes down in covering clouds

 

If I saw what I see now

I'd be ashamed

If I saw what I see now

I'm coming home again

Home again

Under your cover of blue

"On The Mend" - Foo Fighters

One more day that I've survived

Another night alone

Pay no mind, I'm doing fine

I'm breathing on my own

 

I'm here

And I'm on the mend

I'm here

And I'm on the mend, my friend

 

Wake me when the hour arrives

Wake me with my name

See you somewhere down the line

We're tethered once again

 

I'm here

And I'm on the mend

I'm here

And I'm on the mend, my friend

 

I'm here

And I'm on the mend

I'm here

And I'm on the mend, my friend

 

Was it you

Who sat alone

Here we go

 

Close your eyes and stay a while

But take me when you go

Single file we walk the mile

Just wandering back home

 

I'm here

And I'm on the mend

I'm here

And I'm on the mend, my friend

 

I'm here

And I'm on the mend

I'm here

And I'm on the mend, my friend

 

Was it you

Who sat alone

Here we go, here we go

Here we go, here we go

"Lean On Me"

 

Terry Callier

 

Beth Orton (feat. Terry Callier)

You've seen sad times

Your eyes have told me so

Blue and bad times

You think that I don't know

But there'll be glad times

Just you wait and see

And I'll be your sunrise

If you lean on me

 

I imagined that I could comfort you

I had forgotten the things

That you've been through

But here's one thing

On which we can agree

When you're ready, darling

You can lean on me

 

And the love I bring

Will grow into a lasting thing

It'll put your heart on wings

And set you free

And as you rise

High into the clearing skies

The moment you will realize

You can lean on me

 

Lean on me, you can lean on me

Lean on me, you can lean on me

Lean on me, you can lean on me

Lean on me, you can lean on me

 

And all your heartaches

Are hidden deep inside

So there's no telling

How many tears you've cried

But like the river

Told the weeping willow tree

I can hold your teardrops child

Just lean on me

 

Cause sweet loving care

And, girl, I'll find the strength I swear

And when you need me I'll be there

If you really need me

Till time is done

And the longest race is run

Baby. take me in your arms

So you can lean on me

 

Now when you're feeling lonely

When times get bad

And when you miss the best power

That you ever had

Honey, look around

I know that you will see

When the deal goes down

You can always lean on me

 

Lean on me, you can lean on me

Lean on me, you can lean on me

Lean on me, you can lean on me

Lean on me, you can lean on me

 

So when you get worried

And tears fill your eyes

When everybody turned you down

Oh, no surprise

Well, honey, look around

I know that you will see

Baby, when the deal goes down

You can lean on me

 

Lean on me, you can lean on me

Lean on me, you can lean on me

Lean on me, you can lean on me

Lean on me, you can lean on me

This pain you gave to me

Can you take it all away

Can you take it all away

Well you shoved it in my face

 

Says it all, doesn't it, Off?

"In My Room"

 

Beach Boys

 

Linda Ronstadt

 

There's a world where I can go

And tell my secrets to

In my room

In my room

 

In this world I lock out

All my worries and my fears

In my room

In my room

 

Do my dreaming

And my scheming

Lie awake and pray

 

Do my crying

And my sighing

Laugh at yesterday

 

Now it's dark and I'm alone

But I won't be afraid

In my room

In my room

"Up On The Roof"

 

James Taylor

 

Carole King

https://youtu.be/CRBE06gR6KY

 

The Drifters

 

When this old world starts getting me down

And people are just too much for me to face

I'll climb way up to the top of the stairs

And all my cares just drift right into space

 

On the roof

It's peaceful as can be

And there the world below

Don't bother me

 

So when I come home feeling tired and beat

I'll go up where the air is fresh and sweet

I'll get far away from the hustling crowd

And all that rat race noise down in the street

 

On the roof

That's the only place I know

Where you just have to wish to make it so

Oh let's go

Up on the roof

 

At night the stars, they put on a show for free

And darling, you can share it all with me

That's what I say

 

I keep on telling you

That right smack dab in the middle of town

I've found a paradise

That's trouble-proof

 

And if this old world starts getting you down

There's room enough for two

Up on the roof

Up on the roof

Up on the roof

 

Oh now everything is alright

Everything is alright

 

Drop what you're doing tonight

And climb up the stairs with me and see

We got the stars up above us

And the city lights below

Up on my roof now
