Björk - Pagan Poetry
Pedaling through
The dark currents
I find
An accurate copy
A blueprint
Of the pleasure
In me
(Swirling black lilies totally ripe)
A secret code carved
A secret code carved
(Swirling black lilies totally ripe)
He offers
A handshake
Crooked
Five fingers
They form a pattern
Yet to be matched
On the surface simplicity
(Swirling black lilies totally ripe)
But the darkest pit in me
And it's pagan poetry
(Swirling black lilies totally ripe)
Pagan poetry
Morse coded signals
They pulsate
And wake me up
From my hibernating
On the surface simplicity
(Swirling black lilies totally ripe)
But the darkest pit in me
And it's pagan poetry
(Swirling black lilies totally ripe)
Pagan poetry
(Swirling black lilies totally ripe)
(Swirling black lilies totally ripe)
I love him, I love him
I love him, I love him
I love him, I love him
I love him, I love him
(She loves him, she loves him)
This time
(She loves him, she loves him)
I'm gonna keep it to myself
(She loves him, she loves him)
(She loves him, she loves him)
This time
(She loves him, she loves him)
I'm gonna keep me all to myself
(She loves him, she loves him)
And he makes me want to hurt myself again
(She loves him, she loves him)
(She loves him, she loves him)
And he makes me want to hurt myself again
She loves him, she loves him
She loves him, she loves him
She loves him, she loves him
She loves him, she loves him

Céline Dion - It's All Coming Back To Me Now
There were nights when the wind was so cold
That my body froze in bed
If I just listened to it
Right outside the window
There were days when the sun was so cruel
That all the tears turned to dust
And I just knew my eyes were
Drying up forever (forever)
I finished crying in the instant that you left
And I can't remember where or when or how
And I banished every memory you and I had ever made
But when you touch me like this
And you hold me like that
I just have to admit
That it's all coming back to me
When I touch you like this
And I hold you like that
It's so hard to believe but
It's all coming back to me
(It's all coming back, it's all coming back to me now)
There were moments of gold
And there were flashes of light
There were things I'd never do again
But then they'd always seemed right
There were nights of endless pleasure
It was more than any laws allow
Baby Baby
If I kiss you like this
And if you whisper like that
It was lost long ago
But it's all coming back to me
If you want me like this
And if you need me like that
It was dead long ago
But it's all coming back to me
It's so hard to resist
And it's all coming back to me
I can barely recall
But it's all coming back to me now
But it's all coming back
There were those empty threats and hollow lies
And whenever you tried to hurt me
I just hurt you even worse
And so much deeper
There were hours that just went on for days
When alone at last we'd count up all the chances
That were lost to us forever (forever)
But you were history with the slamming of the door
And I made myself so strong again somehow
And I never wasted any of my time on you since then
But if I touch you like this
And if you kiss me like that
It was so long ago
But it's all coming back to me
If you touch me like this
And if I kiss you like that
It was gone with the wind
But it's all coming back to me
(It's all coming back, it's all coming back to me now)
There were moments of gold
And there were flashes of light
There were things we'd never do again
But then they'd always seemed right
There were nights of endless pleasure
It was more than all your laws allow
Baby, Baby, Baby
When you touch me like this
And when you hold me like that
It was gone with the wind
But it's all coming back to me
When you see me like this
And when I see you like that
Then we see what we want to see
All coming back to me
The flesh and the fantasies
All coming back to me
I can barely recall
But it's all coming back to me now
If you forgive me all this
If I forgive you all that
We forgive and forget
And it's all coming back to me
When you see me like this
And when I see you like that
We see just what we want to see
All coming back to me
The flesh and the fantasies
All coming back to me
I can barely recall but it's all coming back to me now
(It's all coming back to me now)
And when you kiss me like this
(It's all coming back to me now)
And when I touch you like that
(It's all coming back to me now)
If you do it like this
(It's all coming back to me now)
And if we...

Natalie Imbuglia - Lukas
They call him Lukas
Climbing the stairs to talk to you
Coming to tell his stories
Every single one of which is true
"Hello Lukas, I'm pleased to meet you
Now how do you do?"
So they go driving
Out to the river like lovers do
You smell of the summer
Maybe the summer just smells of you
One day I'm gonna be a famous writer
Some book like 'Love In The Afternoon'
It was all Lukas could say
Maybe one day we could run away, run away
Oh oh oh oh I thought you'd never ask
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh I thought we'd never last
Oh oh oh oh oh
Now here comes Lukas
He'd done everything he wanted to
It was 20 years later
Come back to do what he promised to
He'd come back to make her happy
But these things don't always wait for you
And poor Lukas was late 'cause when he got back
She'd been married a day, gone away
Oh oh oh oh I thought we'd never last
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh I thought you'd never ask
Oh oh oh oh oh
And Lukas would say
For a million lonely people another lonely day
For a million hearts that open, a million break
And the world's just a fallen angel in my wake
High up in heaven you can hear them say
Looking for Lukas but Lukas was always running away
Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh

Taylor Swift - We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together
I remember when we broke up the first time
Saying "This is it, I’ve had enough"
Cause like
We hadn't seen each other in a month
When you said you needed space...What?
Then you come around again and say
"Baby, I miss you and I swear I’m gonna change. Trust me."
Remember how that lasted for a day?
I say "I hate you," we break up, you call me, I love you.
Ooh, we called it off again last night but
But ooh, this time I’m telling you, I’m telling you
We are never ever ever getting back together
We are never ever ever getting back together
You go talk to your friends
Talk to my friends
Talk to me
But we are never ever ever ever getting back together
Like, ever.
I'm really gonna miss you picking fights
And me, falling for a screaming that I'm right
And you, will hide away and find your piece of mind
With some indie record that's much cooler than mine
Oooh you called me up again tonight
But oooh, this time I'm telling you, I'm telling you
We are never ever ever getting back together
We are never ever ever getting back together
You go talk to your friends
Talk to my friends
Talk to me
But we are never ever ever ever getting back together
Oooh, yeah ooh, yeah ooh, yeah
Oh oh oh
I used to think, that we, were forever ever ever
And I used to say never say never
"Huh, so he calls me up and he's like, I still love you
And i'm like, i'm just, I mean this is exhausting, you know
Like, we are never getting back together
Like ever"
No!
We are never ever ever getting back together
We are never ever ever getting back together
You go talk to your friends
Talk to my friends
Talk to me
But we are never ever ever ever getting back together
We, oooh, oooh, not back together, we
Oh, getting back together
You go talk to your friends
Talk to my friends
Talk to me
But we are never ever ever ever getting back together

Dido - Let's Do The Things We Normally Do
Let's pretend that we'll be here tomorrow
And I'll try for you to be a little more on time
I know you need to say you know you've let me down
But you haven't and it's hard to talk with people all around
Please don't say how proud you are
Let's do the things we normally do
I'll say see you later, you'll sing a line or two
From your rebel songs sung out of tune
Don't hold my hand for longer than you need to
Let's forget that we're here and make some plans
We'll go for walks and sit together on the bench we always sat
I'll tell you every little detail of my day and so will you
But don't try to stay awake, I'm feeling tired too
This is just another day
Let's do the things we normally do
I'll say see you later you'll sing a line or two
From your rebel songs sung out of tune
Don't hold my hand for longer than you need to
Armored cars and tanks and guns
Came to take away our sons
And everybody's stood behind
The man behind the wire
There's a fight to love
A fight to have
Your bed's a battlefield and back
And all of this will just be stripped away
Let's do the things we normally do
I'll say see you later you'll sing a line or two
From your rebel songs sung out of tune
Don't hold my hand for longer than you need to
Don't look me in the eye more than you need to
Don't try to say goodbye if I don't want to
Don't say how proud you are
And say I'm far away and take along your
And say a word and I can say fade away

Dido - Don't Think Of Me
So you're with her, and not with me,
I hope she's sweet, and so pretty
I hear she cooks delightfully,
A little angel beside you
So you're with her, and not with me,
Oh how lucky one man can be
I hear your house is small and clean,
Oh how lovely with your homecoming queen
Oh how lovely it must be
When you see her sweet smile baby, don't think of me
When she lays in your warm arms, don't think of me
So you're with her, and not with me,
I know she spreads sweet honey
In fact your best friend,
I heard he spent last night with her
Now how do you feel, how do you feel
When you see her sweet smile baby, don't think of me
When she lays in your warm arms, don't think of me
And it's too late and it's too bad, don't think of me
Oh it's too late and it's too bad, don't think of me
Does it bother you now all the mess I made
Does it bother you now the clothes you told me not to wear
Does it bother you now all the angry games we played
Does it bother you now when I'm not there
When you see her sweet smile baby, don't think of me
When she lays in your warm arms, don't think of me
And it's too late and it's too bad, don't think of me
And it's too late and it's too bad, don't think of me

The Cranberries - Disappointment
Disappointment, oh, you shouldn't have done
You couldn't have done
You wouldn't have done
The things you did then
And we could have been happy
What a piteous thing
A hideous thing
Was tainted by the rest
But it won't get any harder
And I hope you'll find your way again
And it won't get any higher
And it all boils down to what you did there
There, there, there
There, there, there, there
In the night we fight, I fled you're right
It was exactly then, it was exactly then
I decided, decided, decided, decide
And drew you out
In the night we fight, I fled you're right
It was exactly there, it was exactly there
I decided, decided, decided, decided
But it won't be any harder
And I hope you'll find your way again
And it won't get any higher
But it all boils down to what you did there
There, there, there
There, there, there, there
Disappointment Disappointment Disappointment
Disappointment Disappointment Disappointment
There, there, there, there
Disappointment Disappointment Disappointment

Adele - First Love
So little to say but so much time,
Despite my empty mouth the words are in my mind
Please wear the face, the one where you smile,
Because you lighten up my heart when I start to cry
Forgive me first love, but I'm tired
I need to get away to feel again
Try to understand why,
don't get so close to change my mind
Please wipe that look out of your eyes,
it's bribing me to doubt myself;
Simply, it's tiring
This love has dried up and stayed behind,
And if I stay I'll be a lie
Then choke on words I'd always hide
Excuse me first love, but we're through
I need to taste a kiss from someone new
Forgive me first love, but I'm too tired
I'm bored to say the least and I, I lack desire
Forgive me first love,
Forgive me first love,
Forgive me first love,
Forgive me first love,
Forgive me,
Forgive me first love,
Forgive me first love

Katy Perry - Not Like The Movies
He put it on me, I put it on
Like there was nothin' wrong
It didn't fit, it wasn't right
Wasn't just the size
They say you know when you know
I don't know
I didn't feel
The fairy tale feeling, no
Am I a stupid girl
For even dreaming that I could?
If it's not like the movies
That's how it should be, yeah
When he's the one, I'll come undone
And my world will stop spinning
And that's just the beginning
Snow White said when I was young
One day, my prince will come, so I'll wait for that date
They say it's hard to meet your match
Gotta find my better half, so we make perfect shapes
If stars don't align, if it doesn't stop time
If you can't see the sign, wait for it
One-hundred percent, worth every penny you spend
He'll be the one that finishes your sentences
If it's not like the movies
That's how it should be, yeah
When he's the one, I'll come undone
And my world will stop spinning
And that's just the beginning
'Cause I know you're out there
And you're, you're lookin' for me, oh oh oh
It's a crazy idea that
You were made perfectly for me, you see
Just like the movies
That's how it will be
Cinematic and dramatic
With the perfect ending
It's not like the movies
But that's how it should be
When he's the one, you'll come undone
And your world will stop spinning
And it's just the beginning

Taylor Swift - Hey Stephen
Hey Stephen, I know looks can be deceiving
But I know I saw a light in you
And as we walked we were talking
I didn't say half the things I wanted to
Of all the girls tossing rocks at your window
I'll be the one waiting there even when it's cold
Hey Stephen, boy, you might have me believing
I don't always have to be alone
'Cause I can't help it if you look like an angel
Can't help it if I wanna kiss you in the rain so
Come feel this magic I've been feeling since I met you
Can't help it if there's no one else
Mmm, I can't help myself
Hey Stephen, I've been holding back this feeling
So I got some things to say to you
I've seen it all, so I thought
But I never seen nobody shine the way you do
The way you walk, way you talk, way you say my name
It's beautiful, wonderful, don't you ever change
Hey Stephen, why are people always leaving?
I think you and I should stay the same
'Cause I can't help it if you look like an angel
Can't help it if I wanna kiss you in the rain so
Come feel this magic I've been feeling since I met you
Can't help it if there's no one else
Mmm, I can't help myself
They're dimming the street lights, you're perfect for me
Why aren't you here tonight?
I'm waiting alone now, so come on and come out
And pull me near and shine, shine, shine
Hey Stephen, I could give you fifty reasons
Why I should be the one you choose
All those other girls, well, they're beautiful
But would they write a song for you?
I can't help it if you look like an angel
Can't help it if I wanna kiss you in the rain so
Come feel this magic I've been feeling since I met you
Can't help it if there's no one else
Mmm, I can't help myself
If you look like an angel
Can't help it if I wanna kiss you in the rain so
Come feel this magic I've been feeling since I met you
Can't help it if there's no one else
Mmm, I can't help myself
Myself
Can't help myself
I can't help myself
