I Should Go - Levi Kreis

Here we are. Isn't it familiar
I havn't had someone to talk to in such a long time
And it's strange, all we have in common
And your company was just the thing I needed tonight
But somehow I feel I should apologize
Cause I'm just a little shaken by what's going on
inside
I should go
Before my will gets any weaker
And my eyes begin to linger
Longer than they should
I should go
Before I lose my sense of reason
And this hour holds more meaning
Than it ever could
I Should Go
It's so hard keeping my composure
And pretend I don't see how your body curves beneath
your clothes
And your laugh is pure and uneffected
It frightens me to know so well the place I shouldn't
go
But I know I gotta take the noble path
Cause I don't want you to question the intentions that
I have
I should go
Before my will gets any weaker
And my eyes begin to linger
Longer than they should
I should go
Before I lose my sense of reason
And this hour holds more meaning
Than it ever could
I Should Go
I don't mean to leave you
With a trivial excuse
And when you call tomorrow
I'll know what to do
But I should go
Before my will gets any weaker
And my eyes begin to linger
Longer than they should
I should go
Before I lose my sense of reason
And this hour holds more meaning
Than it ever could
I Should Go

Stand - Rascal Flatts

You feel like a candle in a hurricane
Just like a picture with a broken frame
Alone and helpless
Like you've lost your fight
But you'll be alright

[Chorus:]
Cause when push comes to shove
You taste what you're made of
You might bend, till you break
Cause its all you can take
On your knees you look up
Decide you've had enough
You get mad you get strong
Wipe your hands shake it off
Then you Stand, Then you stand
Life's like a novel
With the end ripped out
The edge of a canyon
With only one way down
Take what you're given before its gone
Start holding on, keep holding on

[Repeat Chorus]

Everytime you get up
And get back in the race
One more small piece of you
Starts to fall into place
Ooohhh

Don't Bother - Shakira

She’s got the kind of look that defies gravity
She’s the greatest cook, and she’s fat free

She’s been to private school,
and she speaks perfect French
She’s got her perfect friends
Oh, isn’t she cool

She practices tai chi
She'd never lose her nerve
She's more than you deserve
She's just far better than me
Hey, hey

So don’t bother
I won't die of deception
I promise you won't ever see me cry
Don’t feel sorry

And don't bother
I’ll be fine,
But she’s waiting
The ring you gave to her will lose its shine
So don’t bother, be unkind

I’m sure she doesn’t know
how to touch you like I would
I beat her at that one good
Don’t you think so?

She's almost six feet tall,
she must think I'm a flea
I’m really a cat you see
And it's not my last life at all
Hey, hey

So don't bother
I won't die of deception
I promise you won't ever see me cry
Don't feel sorry

Don't bother
I’ll be fine
But she's waiting
The ring you gave to her will lose its shine
So don’t bother, be unkind

For you, I'd give up all I own,
And move to a communist country,
If you came with me, of course
And I'd file my nails, so they don't hurt you
And lose those pounds, and learn about football
If it made you see, but you won't, but you won't

So don't bother,
I'll be fine, I'll be fine, I'll be fine, I'll be fine
I promise you won't ever see me cry
And after all I'm glad that I'm not your type
I promise you won't ever see me cry

Don’t bother,
I'll be fine, I'll be fine, I'll be fine, I'll be fine
I promise you won't ever see me cry

And after all I'm glad that I'm not your type,
not your type, not your type, not your type
I promise you won't ever see me cry

Illegal - Shakira


(feat. Carlos Santana)

Who would have thought
That you could hurt me
The way you've done it?
So deliberate, so determined

And since you have been gone
I bite my nails for days and hours
And question my own questions on and on

So tell me now, tell me now
Why you're so far away
When I'm still so close

You don't even know the meaning of the words "I'm sorry"
You said you would love me until you die
And as far as I know you're still alive, baby
You don't even know the meaning of the words "I'm sorry"
I'm starting to believe it should be illegal to deceive a woman's heart

I tried so hard to be attentive
To all you wanted
Always supportive, always patient
What did I do wrong?
I'm wondering for days and hours
It's here, it isn't here where you belong

Anyhow, anyhow
I wish you both all the best
I hope you get along

But you don't even know the meaning of the words "I'm sorry"
You said you would love me until you die
And as far as I know you're still alive, baby
You don't even know the meaning of the words "I'm sorry"
I'm starting to believe it should be illegal to deceive a woman's heart

You don't even know the meaning of the words "I'm sorry"
You said you would love me until you die
And as far as I know you're still alive, baby
You don't even know the meaning of the words "I'm sorry"
I'm starting to believe it should be illegal to deceive a woman's heart

Open heart
Open heart
It should be illegal to deceive a woman's heart

Open heart
Open heart
It should be illegal to deceive a woman's heart

Dear Mr. President - Pink

Dear Mr. President
Come take a walk with me
Let's pretend we're just two people and
You're not better than me
I'd like to ask you some questions if we can speak honestly

What do you feel when you see all the homeless on the street
Who do you pray for at night before you go to sleep
What do you feel when you look in the mirror
Are you proud

How do you sleep while the rest of us cry
How do you dream when a mother has no chance to say goodbye
How do you walk with your head held high
Can you even look me in the eye
And tell me why

Dear Mr. President
Were you a lonely boy
Are you a lonely boy
Are you a lonely boy
How can you say
No child is left behind
We're not dumb and we're not blind
They're all sitting in your cells
While you pay the road to hell

What kind of father would take his own daughter's rights away
And what kind of father might hate his own daughter if she were gay
I can only imagine what the first lady has to say
You've come a long way from whiskey and cocaine

How do you sleep while the rest of us cry
How do you dream when a mother has no chance to say goodbye
How do you walk with your head held high
Can you even look me in the eye

Let me tell you bout hard work
Minimum wage with a baby on the way
Let me tell you bout hard work
Rebuilding your house after the bombs took them away
Let me tell you bout hard work
Building a bed out of a cardboard box
Let me tell you bout hard work
Hard work
Hard work
You don't know nothing bout hard work
Hard work
Hard work
Oh

How do you sleep at night
How do you walk with your head held high
Dear Mr. President
You'd never take a walk with me
Would you

Stranded - Plumb


You know it only breaks my heart

To see you standing in the dark alone

Waiting there for me to come back



I'm too afraid to show



If it's coming over you

Like it's coming over me

I'm crashing like a tidal wave

That drags me out to the sea

And I wanna be with you

And you wanna be with me

I'm crashing like a tidal wave

And I don't wanna be

Stranded, stranded, stranded, stranded



I can only take so much

These tears are turning me to rust

I know you're waiting there for me to

come back



I'm to afraid to show



I miss you, I need you

Without you, I'm stranded

I love you so come back



I'm not afraid to show
