I'm Holding On


I'm going on, I don't know where I belong
But I'm going on, in search of this feeling so strong

As the wind blows on my face, I'm breathing out to space
I need something to believe, anything I could feel

So I look out to the sky
And the rain drops pour into my eye
I know you're there, somewhere, I believe
Holding on to your life for me
One day you'll be here by my side
Holding your arms around me tight
Whispering sweet nothings into my ears
Chasing away all my fears

As the chills run down my spine, I try to open my mind
I'll be waiting beneath the silver moon, hoping I'll see you soon

So I look out to the sky
And the rain drops pour into my eye
I know you're there, somewhere, I believe
Holding on to your life for meOne day you'll be here by my side
Holding your arms around me tight
Whispering sweet nothings into my ears
Chasing away all my fears

Until then, I'm holding on to the pieces of my life
And I'm holding on to the hopes of finding you
One day you'll be here by my side
So close, everything will be alright

Bittersweet Memories


[Verse 1]
3 o’clock in the morning,
I’m tossing and turning on my bed
Came without a warning,
Thoughts of you that fill my head
.
And I tried to figure out what went wrong
If you and I were meant to be
But baby I’m lost and I can’t hold on
To you and your bittersweet memories
.
.
[Chorus]
I remember your smile, the dimple on your cheek,
Sweeps me off my feet…
The way you bite your tongue, when you do something wrong,
My heart just skips a beat…
.
The smell of your skin, flows through my soul,
Makes it hard to breathe…
I remember your smile, and your two bunny teeth,
That sweep me off my feet...
.
.
[Verse 2]
I go to sleep every night,
Wishing I could wake up next to you
When we talk on the phone,
I could spend forever listening to you
.
And I search through my mind for the perfect words
To say what you mean to me
But all I could find in my head
Was you and your bittersweet memories
.
.
[Chorus]
I remember your smile, the dimple on your cheek,
Sweeps me off my feet…
The way you bite your tongue, when you do something wrong,
My heart just skips a beat…
.
The smell of your skin, flows through my soul,
Makes it hard to breathe…
I remember your smile, and your two bunny teeth,
That sweep me off my feet
.
.
[Bridge]
Every time I realize that I don't belong here,
You make me feel as if I belong with you
And I don't know what to say,
And I don't know what to do
.
.

[Chorus]
I remember your smile, the dimple on your cheek,
Sweeps me off my feet…
The way you bite your tongue, when you do something wrong,
My heart just skips a beat…
.
The smell of your skin, flows through my soul,
Makes it hard to breathe…
I remember your smile, and your two bunny teeth,
That sweep me off my feet.

“Just Like Me”


[Verse1]
I never knew it was possible
to find someone like you who is just like me
At first it was all unbelievable
But now we know, this is how it’s meant to be
.
With every twisted step I take,
Having you beside just makes it better
You fix me every time I break
And you’re the world’s best damn smile machine
.
.
[Chorus]
You’re the shining light to my dark,
The torchbearer when I’m falling behind
The saviour of my lost mind,
You’re my shade in the scorching sun
You’re the one person who is always there
When everything around is falling apart,
Every time I’m stuck, you help me kick start
You’re the one I trust, coz I know you care
.
.
[Verse2]
Every time that I feel sad
The sweet sweet things you say make me smile
Every time I lose my head
You bring me back with my feet on the ground
.
Anything that goes wrong with you
Will always get better, you know you’re not alone
I’m going to be standing by you
And if you need to laugh, I will be your clown
.
.
[Chorus]
You’re the shining light to my dark,
The torchbearer when I’m falling behind
The saviour of my lost mind,
You’re my shade in the scorching sun
You’re the one person who is always there
When everything around is falling apart,
Every time I’m stuck, you help me kick start
One person I trust, coz I know that you care
.
.
[Bridge]
It’s funny how we’re always in the same boat
And I bet we always will be, friends forever
Through the ups and downs of life we go together
Together in the ride of this roller-coaster
.
.
[Chorus]
You’re the shining light to my dark,
The torchbearer when I’m falling behind
The saviour of my lost mind,
You’re my shade in the scorching sun
You’re the one person who is always there
When everything around is falling apart,
Every time I’m stuck, you help me kick start
One person I trust, coz I know that you care
.
.
[Break]
I can never be alone till you’re around
I can never be lonely till you’re there for me
You’re the one who sees all the colors of my life
You’re the one who gives my qualities a rise
This is just how it’s meant to be
You’re the ecstasy in my fantasy
.

Hey Cheater

[Verse 1]

Seems like she really loves you

I wonder if she knows what you’re upto

There’s something about the way you hold her

Something about your past that you told her

Makes her believe you’ll never let go

Makes her believe coz she doesn’t know

..

[Chorus]

Hey cheater, I know you better

You won’t stay true to her

You’ll leave her when you find another

You’re only going to break her heart

It won’t be late before she figures it out

..

[Verse 2]

You tell her that you’re in love

Tell her she’s the one, the only one

You kiss her on the lips and wrap her in your arms

It gets hard to breathe; she’s lost in your charm

Makes her want to be with you forever

But there’s no forever for a cheater

..

[Chorus]

Hey cheater, I know you better

You won’t stay true to her

You’ll leave her when you find another

You’re only going to break her heart

It won’t be late before she figures it out

..

[Bridge]

I hope she finds out

The truth about your lies

About the pain in your eyes

The reason behind your sad smile

And I hope that one day she will see

What made you choose her over me

.

[Chorus]

Hey Cheater, I found someone better

And he’s gonna stay true to me

He treats me right, never lets me cry

He holds me tight when I’m falling apart

He fixes the damage you’ve done to my heart

.

Hey Cheater, I found someone better

And he’s gonna stay true to me

But you’ll leave her when you find another

You’re only going to break her heart

It won’t be late before she figures it out

.

If I were your princess

[Verse 1]

I see your face and it makes me smile

I look into your eyes and I can’t deny

They take me away to a place I’ve never been before

Fantasy land, deserted island, a place behind the magic door

You run your fingers through your hair

Raise your eyebrows as you see me stare

I blush; you smile as I bite my tongue

It’s a moment of bliss; it’s a feeling so strong

fgf

[Chorus]

If I were your princess,

Would you save me from my distress?

Or just lead me through another mess?

If this were our fairytale

Could we have a happy ending?

Or would it be of no avail?

dhfd

[Verse 2]

I’m standing alone in this crowded place

Holding on to myself, lacking grace

Losing on my balance, I’m stumbling upon my own feet

You come around and catch me; make my heart skip a beat

Boy, every time you touch me,

I can feel myself go week in the knees

And every time you hold me

I can almost feel my blood freeze

ffg

[Chorus]

If I were your princess,

Would you save me from my distress?

Or just lead me through another mess?

If this were our fairytale

Could we have a happy ending?

Or would it be of no avail?

gdfgf

[Bridge]

I know I ain’t any Cinderella; I’ve got no crystal shoes

No magic spell, no pumpkin carriage; All I need is you.

gdf

[Chorus]

If I were your princess,

Would you save me from my distress?

Save me from every mess

If this were our fairytale

Would we have a happy ending?

Will we live happily ever after?

fgh

Girl Like Her

[Verse 1]

I’ve been asking myself why,

Where did I go wrong?

When will you realize

It’s with me that you belong

 

She wears short skirts, I wear skinny jeans

I bite my tongue, she files her nails

She reads fiction, I like fairy tales

She wants action and I like love scenes

 

[Chorus]

Turn around, turn around, and take a look at me

Do you see how it used to be?

Turn around, turn around, and take a look at her,

She’s wearing fur like a plastic doll

She doesn’t deserve you at all

So what’s a boy like you doing with a girl like her?

What’s a boy like you doing with a girl like her?

 

[Verse 2]

I’ve been feeling so hopeless,

Come out of this day dream

When will you realize

What an idiot  you have been

 

She writes dark poetry, I write love songs

I love your humor, she likes your attitude

She will never know you the way I understand you

She’s on her way; I’m waiting for you to come along

 

[Chorus]

Turn around, turn around, and take a look at me

Do you see how it used to be?

Turn around, turn around, and take a look at her,

She’s wearing fur like a plastic doll

She doesn’t deserve you at all

So what’s a boy like you doing with a girl like her?

What’s a boy like you doing with a girl like her?

 

[Bridge]

Could you tell it to my face you don’t love me anymore?

The look on your face tells me you do

Could you look into my eyes and say you don’t care?

The look in your eyes tells me you do

 

Don’t you know how much I love you?

Don’t you see I belong with you?

She wants you but I need you

I need you but she’s got you

 

[Chorus]

Turn around, turn around, and take a look at me

Do you see how it used to be?

Turn around, turn around, and take a look at her,

She’s wearing fur like a plastic doll

She doesn’t deserve you at all

So what’s a boy like you doing with a girl like her?

What’s a boy like you doing with a girl like her?

A girl like her

Yours Sincerely

[Verse 1]

I’ve been waiting, waiting, waiting

See the time just fading, fading

It’s been so long since he’s been gone

I can’t hold on to this alone

 

[Verse 2]

Lying on my bed, I closed my eyes

Drank back the tears that tried to fall

And just when I thought I was being betrayed

The postman rang the doorbell and said

“You’ve got mail”

 

[Pre-Chorus]

It was a postcard that he wrote

And it had a little note which said

 

[Chorus]

Hey baby, how are you?

How are you? I’m alright.

Oh baby I’m missing you

I’m missing you, you tonight

This place really sucks

I don’t know what to do

I’m so lost here,

I can’t live without you

Tell me you’ll be my girl, for all eternity

I’ll be yours forever, yours sincerely

 

[Verse 3]

I put the note into my pocket

And my heart back in its place

It’s the first time I’ve been so happy

Since the last time I saw his face

Coz I got his mail

 

[Pre-Chorus]

It was a postcard that he wrote

And it had a little note which said

 

[Chorus]

Hey baby, how are you?

How are you? I’m alright.

Oh baby I’m missing you

I’m missing you, you tonight

This place really sucks

I don’t know what to do

I’m so lost here,

I can’t live without you

Tell me you’ll be my girl, for all eternity

I’ll be yours forever, yours sincerely

I’ll be yours forever, yours sincerely

 

[Verse 4]

I had been waiting, waiting, waiting

It was such a strange feeling

Four days later, he was at my door

He knelt down and held out a ring

 

[Pre-Chorus]

He took my hand, I nodded yes

He hugged me and he said

 

[Chorus]

Oh baby, I love you

I love you, I love you

I said, I love you too,

I need you and I missed you

I can’t believe this

It’s like a dream come true

I’m lost in your love,

I can’t live without you

I swear I’ll be your girl, for all eternity

I’ll be yours forever, yours sincerely

Leech

[Verse 1]

I called you to say, “I missed you”

But, you put my call on hold

I guess I know whom you’ve got there

It’s so obvious when your voice is cold

 

I’ve been waiting for an hour

I’ve been wondering where you are

Why don’t you get back to me?

 

 

[Chorus]

You treat her like a butterfly that caught your eye

You mistreat me like I am some kind of leech

You fall for her charm

You follow her around

But, when I hold your arm

You push me to the ground

 

I’ve had enough

Open your eyes and see

What you’re doing to me

I won’t let you play with me

No more

 

 

[Verse 2]

This is what I’m gonna do

Throw your stuff away

I don’t care what you say

I’m beginning a brand new day

 

Your CDs and your books

Your letters that I mistook

Are dumped in the bin

This is how I say, “Goodbye”

 

 

[Climb]

Go on, treat her, like a butterfly

That caught your eye

It’s not me but you

The leech that suck everything out of me

 

 

[Chorus]

You fall for her charm

You follow her around

But, when I hold your arm

You push me to the ground

 

I’ve had enough

Open your eyes and see

What you’re doing to me

No, I won’t let you play with me

No more

 

You're the leech sucking the life out of me

You're the leech sucking the life out of me
