The Closest Thing by The Julianna Theory

You're the words that come out easy,
And I am speechless at best.
Your star it seems to shine above the rest.
You're the face before the cameras,
The smile i'd like to earn.
The closest thing to perfect,
In a hollywood to burn.
You're the beauty that is deeper,
Than eyes can merely see.
The closest thing to perfect.
But the farthest thing from me.

Chorus: (x2)
I'd love to be,
The shoulder that you cry on.
I'd love to be,
The friend you call when things are great.

You're the dream that hasn't ended,
And I'm still anxious for rest.
Your words they seem to hang above my head.
You're the bud before the flower,
Unfurls into full bloom.
Captivating beauty,
But it maybe all too soon.
You're the song that writes a story,
But leaves alot to read.
The closest thing to perfect,
But the farthest thing from me.

Chorus: (x2)

And like I really deserve a chance to,
Sit across the table,
And tell you that I think you're wonderful.
And I think you're something special.
I guess this is my only chance to,
Say I wish I knew you,
Because I'm sure you're wonderful,
If I'd get to know you.

The Luckiest by Ben Folds Five

I don't get many things right the first time
In fact, I am told that a lot
Now I know all the wrong turns, the stumbles and falls
Brought me here

And where was I before the day
That I first saw your lovely face?
Now I see it everyday
And I know

That I am
I am, I am
The luckiest

What if I'd been born fifty years before you
In a house on the street where you live?
Maybe I'd be outside as you passed on your bike
Would I know?

And in a wide sea of eyes
I see one pair that I recognize
And I know

That I am
I am, I am
The luckiest

I love you more than I have ever found a way to say to you

Next door there's an old man who lived to his nineties
And one day passed away in his sleep
His wife, she stayed for a couple of days
And passed away

I'm sorry, I know that's a
strange way to tell you that I know
we belong
That I know
That I am
I am, I am
The luckiest

That I know
That I am
I am, I am
The luckiest

Giving It Away by Mae

By the way you brought me here,
It makes believe,
the best is still yet to come,
and I don't want to leave.
Forgive my hesitation but I'm learning to trust in you.
Help me to dream these dreams
because I don't have a clue.

If you'd be honest and say what you mean you know I
would promise I'd do anything
because I know that without you I'm giving it away.

Is this what you wanted?
Cause I'm willing to change.
Now that I'm certain,
there's much more to gain.
You've introduced me to the moment
but I'm looking to stay for good.
You asked me to stay forever.
Well, you know that
I would, I would do anything.

If you'd be honest and say what you mean you know
I would promise I'd do anything
because I know that without you I'm giving it away.

The nights are forever and maybe I'm wrong,
but it feels like I'm so lost without you.
So I step towards the heat, it's the way I can see,
and it makes me believe that it's you.

And by the way you brought me here it makes me believe the best is still yet to come
and I don't want to leave, I won't, but anyway...

If you'd be honest and say what you mean you know
I would promise I'd do anything
because I know that without you I'm giving it away.

The nights are forever.
I can't get to sleep cause I know there's a reason.
I'm in this too deep and I'm sure that without you,
I'm giving it away.
Yeah.

X12
Woo Hoo
I’m Giving it away...
Giving it away...
Giving it away..

Sweet Avenue by Jets to Brazil

Tasting you and rain
I walk down to the train
try not to look down
this day could someday be an anniversary
everything is light and sound
facing forwards going slowly wait for you to show me
where this train wants to go
living by the hour i stopped for every flower
everything is soft and slow
now all these tastes improve
through the view that comes with you
like they handed me my life
for the first time it felt right

thank you for making me see there's a life in me
it was dying to get out
holding you we make two spoons beneath an april moon
everything is soft and sweet

this cigarette it could seduce a nation with its smoke
crawling down my tired throat
scratches part of me that's purring
softly stirring
i'm captain of industry smoking famously
feet up on the windowsill
looking at all these trees i feel affinity with
everything so soft and still-budding at my fingertips
touching you i start to bloom
alive with trains and passing ships
soft and sweet along your lips now
i go "oh wow"

thank you for taking me from my monastary
i was dying to get out
with tears of gratitude
i like my latitude

a cross town train to you
now all these tastes improve
through the view that comes with you
like they handed me my life
for the first time it felt worth it
like i deserved it

Come Back to Bed by John Mayer (the best lyricist i have heard in quite a while) i love this man!

Still is the life
Of your room when you're not inside
All of your things tell the sweetest story line
Your tears on these sheets
And your footsteps are down the hall
Tell me what I did
I can't find where the moment went wrong at all

You can be mad in the morning
I'll take back what I said
Just don't leave me alone here
It's cold, baby
Come back to bed
Come back to bed
Come back to bed
Come back to bed
(come on back to me)

What will this fix
You know you're not a quick forgive
And I won't sleep through this
I survive on the breath you are finished with

You can be mad in the morning
I'll take back what I said
Just don't leave me alone here
It's cold, baby
Come back to bed
Come back to bed
Come back to bed
Come back to bed

You can be mad in the morning
Or the afternoon instead
But don't leave me
98 and 6 degrees of separation from you, baby
Come back to bed
Come back to bed
Come back to bed
Why dont you come back to bed?

Don't hold your love over my head
Don't hold your love over my head
Don't hold your love over my head
Don't hold your love over my head
Don't hold your love over my head
Don't hold your love...

Excerpts from Random Notes Strewn Across the Floor by Cursive

why i should leave...
no
why i'm leaving you...
for him
well let's see here...
well, let's see
where should i...
begin?

everynight you get annihilated with all your friends
and everynight i drink aloneuntil you stumble in the morning sun
it's a fuck and run
i know see it all i see it in the eyes of those girls
those fucking girls they smile and nod
but never a single word
i'm just in the way
i'm the ball and chain
you're the jailbird chirping how
hard life is in the cage
and how hard it is waking up next to me...

well, you've dug this hole
come on and fill me up
when you said you loved me
i knew i was getting fucked
you said you'd never let go
all that stopped;
you used to turn me on, now we're just getting off
thats why i'm leaving you

you really really think that guy is gonna make it alright
since you told me you could never be in love with another man
oh but this one is it
but i remember when we met we knew that it was the end
yeah i remember i remember i remember
all those things
not everything
summer haircuts
dollar movies

we used to sneak a six-pack in your bag
and wait for a girl to scream or a car to crash
so we could crack open our cans
and the time you shaved my head in the front yard
a passerby stopped to take a picture
we ended up in the paper
and now you wanna leave
well maybe i forgot a couple things
it doesn't mean i don't remember how it feels
when you're lying naked next to me

valentine
i want to feel your hips pressed up against mine
we'll push into eachother
love's alive
it might be fleeting but it's ours, it's tonight
so won't you reconsider
love's lost lives
you might be lonely,
but i'm still by your side
you might have to leave
but not tonight

Crush ME
