Life of the party - Shawn Mendes

I love it when you just don't care
I love it when you dance like there's nobody there
So when it gets hard, don't be afraid
We don't care what them people say

I love it when you don't take no
I love it when you do what you want cause you just said so
Let them all go home, we out late
We don't care what them people say

We don't have to be ordinary
Make your best mistakes
Cause we don't have the time to be sorry
So, baby, be the life of the party

I'm telling you to take your shot, it might be scary
Hearts are gonna break
Cause we don't have the time to be sorry
So, baby, be the life of the party

Together we can just let go
Pretend like there's no one else here that we know
Slow dance, fall in love as the club track plays
We don't care what them people say

We don't have to be ordinary
Make your best mistakes
Cause we don't have the time to be sorry
So, baby, be the life of the party

I'm telling you, take your shot, it might be scary
Hearts are gonna break
Cause we don't have the time to be sorry
So, baby, be the life of the party

Come out tonight, come out tonight
There's no one standing in your way

Come out tonight, come out tonight
We don't care what them people say
We don't care what them people say

We don't have to be ordinary
Make your best mistakes
Cause we don't have the time to be sorry
So, baby, be the life of the party

I'm telling you, take your shot, it might be scary
Hearts are gonna break
Cause we don't have the time to be sorry
So, baby, be the life of the party

Life of the party
So don't let them keep you down
Oh, you know you can't give up
Cause we don't have the time to be sorry
So, baby, be the life of the party

The last goodbye - Billy Boyd

I saw the light fade from the sky
On the wind I heard a sigh
As the snowflakes cover my fallen brothers
I will say this last goodbye

Night is now falling
So ends this day
The road is now calling
And I must away
Over hill and under tree
Through lands where never light has shone
By silver streams that run down to the sea

Under cloud, beneath the stars
Over snow one winter’s morn
I turn at last to paths that lead home
And though where the road then takes me
I cannot tell
We came all this way
But now comes the day
To bid you farewell
Many places I have been
Many sorrows I have seen
But I don’t regret
Nor will I forget
All who took the road with me

Night is now falling
So ends this day
The road is now calling
And I must away
Over hill and under tree
Through lands where never light has shone
By silver streams that run down to the sea

To these memories I will hold
With your blessing I will go
To turn at last to paths that lead home
And though where the road then takes me
I cannot tell
We came all this way
But now comes the day
To bid you farewell

I bid you all a very fond farewell

Breathe into me - Red

And this is how it feels when I
Ignore the words you spoke to me
And this is where I lose myself
When I keep running away from you
And this is who I am when
When I don't know myself anymore
And this is what I choose when
It's all left up to me

Breathe your life into me
I can feel you
I'm falling, falling faster
Breathe your life into me
I still need you
I'm falling, falling

Breathe into me
Breathe into me

And this is how it looks when
I am standing on the edge
And this is how I break apart
When I finally hit the ground
And this is how it hurts when I
Pretend I don't feel any pain
And this is how I disappear
When I throw myself away

Breathe your life into me
I can feel you
I'm falling, falling faster
Breathe your life into me
I still need you
I'm falling, falling

Breathe into me
Breathe into me
Breathe into me
Breathe into me

Breathe your life into me
I can feel you
I'm falling, falling faster
Breathe your life into me
I still need you
I'm falling, falling
Breathe into me

Breathe your life into me
I'm falling, falling faster
Breathe your life into me
Falling, falling, falling

Breathe into me
Breathe into me
Breathe into me
Breathe into me
Breathe

Pieces - Red

I'm here again
A thousand miles away from you
A broken mess
Just scattered pieces of who I am
I tried so hard
Thought I could do this on my own
I've lost so much along the way

Then I'll see your face
I know I'm finally yours
I find everything I thought I lost before
You call my name
I come to you in pieces
So you can make me whole

I've come undone
But you make sense of who I am
Like puzzle pieces in your eye

Then I'll see your face
I know I'm finally yours
I find everything I thought I lost before
You call my name
I come to you in pieces
So you can make me whole

I tried so hard, so hard
I tried so hard

Then I'll see your face
I know I'm finally yours
I find everything I thought I lost before
You call my name
I come to you in pieces
So you can make me whole
So you can make me whole

Smoke gets in your eyes - The Platters

They asked me how I knew
My true love was true
I of course replied
“Something here inside
Can not be denied”


They said, “Some day you'll find
All who love are blind
When your heart's on fire
You must realize
Smoke gets in your eyes”


So I chaffed them and I gaily laughed
To think they could doubt my love
Yet today my love has flown away
I am without my love

Now laughing friends deride
Tears I cannot hide, hide
So I smile and say
“When a lovely flame dies
Smoke gets in your eyes”


Smoke gets in your eyes
Smoke gets in your eyes
Smoke gets in your eyes

It's just my skin - George Ezra

There's a lock on my cupboard door
That I can only reach once inside
And I often sit and wonder who designed
Such a perfect place for me to hide

It's just my name
It's just my skin
Holding a boulder
Can you swim?
Oh, as we fall
Through the water
You find a piece within
And you know it's just your skin

Well, I was never lonely ‘till the day that I was born
Since that day I masquerade in a skin that I have worn
With at least three separate individual minds
When long John returns he'll give a scream
And what he finds

Is just my name
Is just my skin
Holding a boulder
Can you swim?
Oh, as we fall
Through the water
You find a piece within
And you know it's just your

Black dog, black dog, that I'll never know
Oh, black dog haunts you mind, your world, your soul
Oh, black dog, black dog, can't you see I am fine?
Oh, black dog, black dog, you're no plague of mine

It's just my name
It's just my skin
Holding a boulder
Can you swim?

It's just my name
Oh, it's just my skin
Holding a boulder
Can you swim?
Oh, as we fall
Through the water
You find a piece within
And you know it's just your skin

Did you hear the rain? - George Ezra

Why do you treat me so?
Why do you treat me so?
You caused me to weep
And you caused me to mourn
You caused me to pack up my bags
And leave home
Why do you treat me so?

Did you hear the thunder or the rain?
Means I’m coming home again
Means I’m coming home, my friend

Did you steal my name?
Oh, you Jack of all trades
You’re the master of none
Oh, the race has begun
I was born a champion
I was born to jump and run

Oh, did you hear the rain, oh, the rain?
You can try and run and hide
Tearing at the chain
Oh, Lucifer’s inside

Did your siblings tell you
I was wasting up your time?
Oh, now you’re wasting mine
You put me back in line
And I’m counting every link
And I guess you think that’s fine

Oh, did you hear the rain, oh, the rain?
You can try and run and hide
Tearing at the chain
Oh, Lucifer’s inside

Oh, did I send a shiver down your spine?
Well, I do it all the time
It’s a little trick of mine
Did I make you shake your knees?
Did I make him spill his wine?
Lord, I’m spreading like disease
Lord, I’m all up in your mind
Oh, Lucifer’s inside
Oh, Lucifer’s inside

Oh, did you hear the rain, oh, the rain?
You can try and run and hide
Tearing at the chain
Means I’m coming home again
Means I’m coming home, my friend
Oh, Lucifer’s inside
Oh, Lucifer’s inside
Lucifer’s inside

Budapest - George Ezra

My house in Budapest
My hidden treasure chest
Golden grand piano
My beautiful Castillo

For you
I’d leave it all

My acres of a land
I have achieved
It may be hard for you to
Stop and believe

But for you, you
I’d leave it all
All for you
For you
I’d leave it all

Give me one good reason
Why I should never make a change
And, baby, if you hold me
Then all of this will go away

My many artifacts
The list goes on
If you just say the words
I’ll up and run

Oh, to you, you
I’d leave it all
For you
I’d leave it all

Give me one good reason
Why I should never make a change
And, baby, if you hold me
Then all of this will go away

Give me one good reason
Why I should never make a change
And, baby, if you hold me
Then all of this will go away

My friends and family
They don’t understand
They fear they’d lose so much
If you’d take my hand

But for you, you
I’d lose it all
All for you
For you
I’d lose it all

Give me one good reason
Why I should never make a change
And, baby, if you hold me
Then all of this will go away

Give me one good reason
Why I should never make a change
And, baby, if you hold me
Then all of this will go away

My house in Budapest
My hidden treasure chest
Golden grand piano
My beautiful Castillo

You, you
I’d leave it all
All for you
You
I’d leave it all

Blame it on me - George Ezra

The garden was blessed by the gods of me and you
We headed west to find ourselves some truth
What you're waiting for?
Now, what you're waiting for?

We counted all our reasons, excuses that we made
We found ourselves some treasure, and then we threw it all away
What you're waiting for?
Now, what you're waiting for?
What you're waiting for?
Now, what you're waiting for?

When I dance alone and the sun’s bleeding down, blame it on me
When I lose control and the veil's overused, blame it on me
What you're waiting for?
Now, what you're waiting for?

Caught in the tide of blossom, caught in the carnival
Your confidence forgotten, I see the gypsies run
What you're waiting for?
Now, what you're waiting for?
What you're waiting for?
Now, what you're waiting for?

When I dance alone and the sun's bleeding down, blame it on me
When I lose control and the veil's overused, blame it on me
What you're waiting for?
Now, what you're waiting for?
What you're waiting for?
Now, what you're waiting for?

When I dance alone and the sun's bleeding down, blame it on me
When I lose control and the veil's overused, blame it on me
When I dance alone, I know I'll go, blame it on me
When I'll lose control, I know I'll go, blame it on me

What you're waiting for?
Now, what you're waiting for?
What you're waiting for?
Now, what you're waiting for?

Hello my old heart - The Oh Hellos

Hello, my old heart
How have you been?
Are you still there inside my chest?
I've been so worried
You've been so still
Barely beating at all

Oh, don't leave me here alone
Don't tell me that we've grown
For having loved a little while
Oh, I don't want to be alone
I want to find a home
And I want to share it with you

Hello, my old heart
It's been so long
Since I've given you away
And every day I add another stone
To the walls I built around you
To keep you safe

Oh, don't leave me here alone
Don't tell me that we've grown
For having loved a little while
Oh, I don't want to be alone
I want to find a home
And I want to share it with you

Hello, my old heart
How have you been?
How is it, being locked away?
Don't you worry
In there, you're safe
And it's true you'll never beat
But you'll never break

Nothing lasts forever
Some things aren't meant to be
But you'll never find the answers
Until you set your old heart free
Until you set your old heart free

Hello, my old heart
Hello, my old heart

Hello, my old heart
Hello, my old heart
