B i o g r a p h y Jem Griffiths' roundabout road to songstress stardom started in Cardiff, Wales, where she was born and raised. From there she attended Sussex University, and by the mid-1990s she was working in promotion for the Skint and Marine Parade electronic imprints, and hanging out with types like the Lo Fidelity Allstars and breakbeat techno producer Adam Freeland. Dropping her last name and moving back home, Jem began building tracks on her own, as well as singing. She moved to London, demo in hand. There she collaborated with producer Guy Sigsworth (picking up a writing credit for the Madonna track "Nothing Fails" in the process) before landing in America and hooking up with hip-hop producer Ge-Ology and programming whiz Yoad Nevo (Bond, Sophie Ellis-Bextor). Together, they tweaked Jem's sound into an amalgam of soft electronica and soothing, Dido-like vocals. The sound was as pleasing as an overstuffed pillow, and primed for a breakthrough. That finally happened in early 2002, when Nic Harcourt, of LA's tastemaking KCRW, began spinning the breezy Jem track "Finally Woken." The exposure led to a deal with ATO, who issued the It All Starts Here EP in autumn of the following year in preparation for the Finally Woken LP, slated for March '04. |
They
Who made up all the rules
We follow them like fools
Believe them to be true
Don't care to think them through
And I'm sorry so sorry
I'm sorry it's like this
I'm sorry so sorry
I'm sorry we do this
And it's ironic too
'Cause what we tend to do
Is act on what they say
And then it is that way
And i'm sorry so sorry
I'm sorry it's like this
I'm sorry so sorry
I'm sorry we do this
Who are they
And where are they
And how can they possibly know all this
Who are they
And where are they
And how can they possibly know all this
Do you see what I see
Why do we live like this
Is it because it's true
That ignorance is bliss
Who are they
And where are they
And how do they
Know all this
And I'm sorry so sorry
I'm sorry it's like this
Do you see
What I see
Why do we
Live like this
Is it because it's true
That ignorance is bliss
Who are they
Where are they
How can they
Know all this
I'm sorry so sorry
I'm sorry we do this
Come on

Hot temptations
Sweet sensations

I've been thinking about things
For a long while
I'm feeling so calm
I've got a big smile
I have a view of the sun
Right over the sea
And now I can feel
Life is flowing through me
You see I've finally woken
From a long sleep
I'm ready to jump
To make that blind leap
'Cause I now believe
I have the power in me
I've got the faith baby
I can truly be free

Save me
Save me
Save me
Save me
Wooooh
I've gotta stop my mind
Working overtime
It's driving me insane
It will not let me live
Always so negative
It's become my enemy
Save me huh huh
Save me huh huh
Save me huh wooh
Save me huh huh
Save me huh huh
Save me huh wooh
Why would I think such things
Crazy thoughts have quick wings
Gaining momentum fast
One minute I am fine
The next i've lost my mind
To a fake fantasy
And none of these thoughts are real
So why is it that I feel
So cut up and so bad
I need to take control
'Cause my mind is on a roll
And it isn't listening to me
Save me huh huh
Thinking and thinking
Save me huh huh
Thinking and thinking
Save me huh wooh
Thinking and thinking
Save me huh huh
Thinking and thinking
Save me huh huh
Thinking and thinking
Save me huh wooh
Thinking and thinking
Mirror mirror on the wall
Who's the dumbest of them all
Insecurities keep growing
Wasted energies are flowing
Anger, pain and sadness beckon
Panic sets in in a second
Be aware it's just your mind
And you can stop it anytime
Save me huh huh
Thinking and thinking
Save me huh huh
Thinking and thinking
Save me huh wooh
Thinking and thinking
Save me huh huh
Thinking and thinking
Save me huh huh
Thinking and thinking
Save me huh wooh
Thinking and thinking
Ok so here we go
If it works i'll let you know
One two three I say stop
24
Been given twenty-four hours
To tie up loose ends
To make amends
His eyes said it all
I started to fall
And the silence deafened
Head spinning round
No time to sit down
Just wanted to
Run and run and run
Be careful they say
Don't wish life away
Now I've one day
And I can't believe
How I've been wasting my time
In twenty-four hours they'll be
Laying flowers
On my life, it's over tonight
I'm not messing no I
Need your blessing
And your promise to live free
Please do it for me
Is there a heaven a hell
And will I come back
Who can tell
Now I can see
What matters to me
It's as clear as crystal
The places I've been
The people I've seen
Plans that I made
Start to fade
The sun's setting gold
Thought I would grow old
It wasn't to be
I can't believe
How I've been wasting my time
In eighteen hours they'll be
Laying flowers on my life
It's over tonight
I'm not messing no I
Need your blessing
And your promise to live free
Please do it for me
In thirteen hours they'll be
Laying flowers on my life
It's over tonight
I'm not messing no I
Need your blessing
And your promise to live free
Please do it for me
I'm not alone
I sense it
I sense it
All that I said
I meant it
I meant it
I can't believe
How much I've wasted my time
In just eight hours they'll be
Laying flowers on my life
It's over tonight
I'm not messing no I
Need your blessing
And your promise to live free
Please do it for me
In just an hour they'll be
Laying flowers on my life
It's over tonight
I'm not messing no I
Need your blessing
And your promise to live free
Please do it for me
Missing you
I wish this could be
A happy song
But my happiness disappeared
The moment you were gone
Don't think I ever believed that
This day would come
Now all I'm feeling
Is lost and numb
And ohhh
I know I promised
Hmmm
That I would try
But I, yes I
Miss you
And it's killing inside
I'll always be thankful
For the time we had
We were blessed
I should celebrate
But I feel too sad
All the wonderful memories
Just make me fall apart
And it feels like somebody's
Stabbed me in my heart
And ohhh
I know I promised
Hmmm
That I wouldn't try
But I, yes I
Miss you
And it's killing inside
Oh Oh Oh well I, yes I
Miss you
Want you by my side
Walking
Holding hands
Talking
Making plans
Touching my heart my soul
I wish this could be
A happy song
But my happiness disappeared
The moment you were gone
Tell me it's not happening
Say it's not as it seems
Tell me that i'm gonna wake up
It's just a bad dream
Please tell me that it's fiction
Tell me it's just a lie
Whatever you choose to tell me
Please say he didn't die
And I, yes I
Miss you
And it's killing inside
Oh Oh Oh well I, yes I
I miss you
Want you by my side
Oh Oh Oh well I
Miss you
Want you by my side
Back here by my side
Here by my side
Wish I
Baby
You're sailing today
Baby
You're sailing away
Sugar
Wish I could go too
But honey you know
I'm happy for you
Wish I, I wish I, I wish I
Wish I was going too
Baby
Your ship has come in
Baby
Adventures will begin
Sugar
Don't you worry about me
'Cause honey you know
Want you to be happy
Wish I, I wish I, I wish I
Wish I was going too
But if you find that you don't like it
That the people there aren't inviting
Or that city life is too frightening
Won't you come home
But if you find that you don't like it
That the people there aren't inviting
Or that city life is too frightening
Won't you come home
Please come home
Wish I, I wish I, I wish I
Wish I was going too
Wish I, I wish I, I wish I
Wish I was going too
Just a ride
Life
It's ever so strange
It's so full of change
Think that you've worked it out
Then bang
Right out of the blue
Something happens to you
To throw you off course
And then you
Breakdown
Yeah you breakdown
Well don't you breakdown
Listen to me
Because
It's just a ride, it's just a ride
No need to run, no need to hide
It'll take you round and round
Sometimes you're up
Sometimes you're down
It's just a ride, it's just a ride
Don't be scared
Don't hide your eyes
It may feel so real inside
But don't forget it's just a ride
Truth, we don't wanna hear
It's too much to take
Don't like to feel out of control
So we make our plans
Ten times a day
And when they don't go
Our way we
Breakdown
Yeah we breakdown
Well don't you breakdown
Listen to me
Because
It's just a ride, it's just a ride
No need to run, no need to hide
It'll take you round and round
Sometimes you're up
Sometimes you're down
It's just a ride, it's just a ride
Don't be scared
Don't hide your eyes
It may feel so real inside
But don't forget it's just a ride
Slowly, oh so very slowly
Except that
There's no getting off
So live it, just gotta go with it
'Cause this ride's never gonna stop
Breakdown
Don't you breakdown
No need to breakdown
No need at all
Because
It's just a ride, it's just a ride
No need to run, no need to hide
It'll take you all around
Sometimes you're up
Sometimes you're down
It's just a ride, it's just a ride
Don't be scared now
Dry your eyes
It may feel so real inside
But don't forget enjoy the ride
Falling for you
Said there'd be no going back
Promised myself i'd never be that sad
Maybe that's why you've come along
To show me, it's not always bad
'Cause I can feel it, baby
I feel like i'm falling for you
But i'm scared to, let go
I'm scared 'Cause my heart has been hurt so
It's true i've become a skeptic
How many couples really love
Just wish I had a crystal ball
To show me, if it's worth it all
'Cause I can feel it, baby
I feel like i'm falling for you
But i'm scared to, let go
I'm scared 'cause my heart has been hurt so
Yeah I can feel it, baby
I feel like i'm falling for you
But i'm scared to, let go
I'm scared 'cause my heart has been hurt so
And i've got to be sure
'Cause it's been so long
And I cannot take the pain again
If it all goes wrong
'Cause I can feel it, baby
I feel like i'm falling for you
But I'm scared to, let go
I'm scared 'cause my heart has been hurt so
Yeah I can feel it, baby
I feel like i'm falling for you
But i'm scared to, let go
I'm scared 'cause my heart has been hurt so
I want you so much
I need you so much
I want you so much
I need you so much
Believe me my love
Believe me my love
Stay now
Daylight comes, daylight comes
And you've gotta go
Breaks my heart, breaks my heart
To have to watch you go
Wish I knew, wish I knew
When you'll be back again
However long, it's just too long
Until we meet again
Stay now, stay now
Just a little more
'Cause this love, this love
Is what living's for
Stay now
Hide in bed, sheets overhead
Blocking out the sun
Feel like we are marooned at sea
Away from everyone
And i, I hate to say goodbye
I, want you to touch me one more time
Stay now, stay now
Just a little more
'Cause this love, this love
Is what living's for
Stay now, stay now
Just a little more
'Cause this love, this love
Is what living's for
Stay now
Stay now
Stay now
Flying high
You can't know, oh no
You can't know
How much I think about you, no
It's making my head spin
Looking at you
And you are looking at me
And we both know what we want
Hmmm, so close to giving in
Feel so nice
Oh yeah you feel so nice
Wish I could spend the night
But I can't pay the price
Oh no, no
But i'm flying so high
High off the ground
When you're around
And I can feel your high
Rocking me inside
It's too much to hide
I know, oh yes
I know that we can't
Be together
But, I just like to dream
It's so strange
The way our paths have crossed
How we were brought together
Hmmm, it's written in the stars it seems
Feel so nice
Oh yeah you feel so nice
I'd love to spend the night
But I can't pay the price
Oh no, no
And i'm flying so high
High off the ground
When you're around
And I can feel your high
Touching me inside
And it's too much to hide
Back to earth
Where did you take me to
I know there's no such thing
As painless love
Well it'll catch us up
And we can never win
But ohhh
I feel so alive
Ohhh
Just wanna hold you
Hold you so tight
And i'm flying so high
High off the ground
When you're around
And I can feel your high
Touching me inside
And it's too much to hide
And i'm flying so high
High off the ground
When you're around
Down To Earth
Friends I have to tell you
They sent me on a mission down to earth
To watch and to observe life
And gather information about your birth
But what I mostly see
Is misery
And it makes me sad
So capable of love yet
Too scared to open up and
Just wanna be accepted
But can't show that you care
Creating problems daily
No wonder some go crazy
So special and so gifted
But most don't know, it's there
Friends I have to ask you
Surrounded by the beauty of this place
Why do you make it so hard
For all the things you want to come your way
Well I don't think you see
Your destiny
And it makes me sad
So capable of love yet
Too scared to open up and
Just wanna be accepted
But can't show that you care
Creating problems daily,
No wonder some go crazy
So special and so gifted
But most don't know, it's there
Do it
Just let it all out
Express emotion
Say how you're feeling
It's liberating
Nothing can hurt you
You can be happy
But you must believe it
Believe it
Well I don't think you see
Your destiny
And it makes me sad
So capable of love yet
Too scared to open up and
Just wanna be accepted
But can't show that you care
Creating problems daily
No wonder some go crazy
So special and so gifted
But most don't know, it's there
So capable of love yet,
Too scared to open up and
Just wanna be accepted
Creating problems daily
No wonder some go crazy
So special and so gifted
But most don't know, it's there
Won't you let me take you down to earth
Crazy
Take your aftershave
Take your rings
Take your clothes
Just take all of your things
Move your flash car
It's wasting my space
Now take yourself
And get out of my place
You think I'm crazy
Well hell I may be
Boy you're not welcome here
But if I'm crazy
You made me crazy so
Boy you're not welcome here
Don't like problems
I don't like stress
Don't like to argue
Like tears even less
You think it's clever to play all these games
Well say goodbye 'cause the rules have just changed
You think I'm crazy
Well hell I may be
Boy you're not welcome here
But if I'm crazy
You made me crazy so
Boy you're not welcome here
I've got brains and a hot body too
I'm not stupid I leave that to you
Don't think you counted on me being strong
Well I'm calling time now you just run along
Not too perceptive
Not too perceptive
Boy I'm not that kind of girl
Go find another, go find another
Sleep with another, sleep with another
Boy I'm not that kind of girl
And if I'm crazy
You made me crazy so
Boy you're not welcome here
And if I'm crazy
You made me crazy so
Boy you're not welcome here
Not too perceptive
Not too perceptive
Boy I'm not that kind of girl
Go find another, go find another
Sleep with another, sleep with another
Boy I'm not that kind of girl, girl
If I'm crazy
You made me crazy so
Boy you're not welcome here
I Want You To...
Maria, salimos esta noche
Ay, no se
Maria, igual encuentras un chico guapo
No se, estoy cansada
Sabes que
Que vas a salir
Y será una gran noche
Spinning round
And I touch the ground
And I let go of my mind
Let the music take over my body
And I start to unwind
Feel the heat as I rock the beat
And I see your sexy smile
Intense attraction, bodies like magnets
My thoughts start to run wild
De arriba nace el amor
I want you to love me
I want you to touch me
I want you to know me
I want you to show me
I want you to love me
I want you to touch me
I want you to know me
I want you to...
Moving forward and arching back with that
Hot look in your eye
Up so close I can feel you touching me
No time to be shy
Head to head no I won't be lead
Well I, I'll put up a fight
Feel the bass, now my pulse is racing
And I'm flying tonight
De arriba nace el amor
I want you to love me
I want you to touch me
I want you to know me
I want you to show me
I want you to love me
I want you to touch me
I want you to know me
I want you to...
De arriba nace el amor
I want you to love me
I want you to touch me
I want you to know me
I want you to show me
I want you to love me
I want you to touch me
I want you to know me
De arriba nace el amor
I want you to show me
I want you to love me
I want you to touch me
I want you to know me
De arriba nace el amor
I want you to...
It's
Amazing
( Sex and the City OST )
Do it now
You know who you are
You feel it in your heart
And you're burning with ambition
But first, wait
Won't get it on a plate
You're gonna have to work
For it harder and harder
And I know
'Cause I've been there before
Knocking on the doors
With rejection, rejection
And you'll see
'Cause if it's meant to be
Nothing can compare
To deserving your dreams
It's amazing
It's amazing
All that you can do
It's amazing
Makes my heart sing
Now it's up to you
Patience, now
Frustration's in the air
And people who don't care
Well it's gonna get you down
And you'll fall, fall
Yes you will hit a wall
But get back on your feet
And you'll be stronger and smarter
And I know
'Cause I've been there before
Knocking down the doors
Won't take no for an answer
And you'll see
'Cause if it's meant to be
Nothing can compare
To deserving your dreams
It's amazing
It's amazing
All that you can do
It's amazing
Makes my heart sing
Now it's up to you
Don't be embarrassed
Don't be afraid
Don't let your dreams slip away
It's determination and using your gift
Everybody has a gift
Never give up, never believe the hype
Trust your instincts, and most importantly
You've got nothing to lose
So just go for it
It's amazing
It's amazing
All that you can do
It's amazing
Makes my heart sing
Now it's up to you
It's amazing
It's amazing
All that you can do
It's amazing
Makes my heart sing
Now it's up to you
Keep On Waiting
The world's got so dark
I need some guidance to see
'Cause this pain in my heart
Is taking everything from me
If it's true that love makes the world go round
Please give some love to me
'Cause I'm feeling so alone right now
It's suffocating me
God give me strength
To keep on walking
God give me strength
To keep on, keep on
God give me strength
To keep on walking
God give me strength
To keep on, keep on
The air's got so thick
I find it hard to breath
And never before have I felt
So desperately in need
I know that I must start listening
To the voice inside of me
The truth is that when I speak to you
I hope to speak to me
God give me strength
To keep on walking
God give me strength
To keep on, keep on
God give me strength
To keep on walking
God give me strength
To keep on, keep on
My darling
God is you
God is you
God give me strength
To keep on walking
God give me strength
To keep on, keep on
God give me strength
To keep on walking
God give me strength
To keep on, keep on
God give me strength
To keep on walking
God, keep on, keep on giving me strength
God give me strength
To keep on, keep on
God, keep on, keep on giving me strength…
You Will Make It
Go to bed
Everything's alright
Don't know the whole world's changing
As you sleep through the night
Wake up slowly
And it's a different world
Hear the news and the floods begin
Screams so loud but only felt within
Heart is shattered
The pieces can't be found
I feel your pain
I wrote this song for you
For you
You will make it
You will make it through
I promise you
He would want you to
Months go by, still living in a daze
Don't know what you've done
With the last seven days
Soul is numb
And life is like a dream
Helping hands but you push them away
How could they understand
Don't wanna share you pain
Afraid to heal
'Cause that would mean goodbye
I feel your pain
I wrote this song for you
For you
You will make it
You will make it through
I promise you
She would want you to
Olele Olele Ubaba
One day sunlight hits a photograph
And it makes you smile
The memories dance around you now
And they make you smile
You're not alone, you'll never be
Just like the stars, they oversee
And they whisper to you
You're still, you're still
You're still, you're still alive
I feel your pain
I wrote this song for you
For you
You will make it
You will make it through
I promise you
They would want you to
Do not stand at my grave and weep
I am not there, I do not sleep
I am a thousand winds that blow
I am the diamond glints on snow
I am the sun on ripened grain
I am the gentle autumn rain
When you awaken in the morning's hush
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circled flight
I am the soft stars that shine at night
Do not stand at my grave and cry
I am not there, I did not die
Olele Olele Ubaba
Uzube naye nkosi

I
Always Knew
I always knew I would one day be here
But I couldn't be a puppet on a string
I've had my fights often I've been KO'd
But I've got back up, no I won't give in
And now I know how it works
If you're too nice, you lose
I'm gonna make it to the top
Well let me show you
And if I've got to toughen up
Then that is what I'll do
But don't make me a monster
Baby you'd be crazy that's for sure
Becoming a bitch is not what I got into music for
Remember back to a bench in Wales
Where two young boys started mocking me
I looked at them, thought I'll show you one day
But I didn't fight or stand up for me
And that young girl's learnt the hard way
If you're too nice you lose
I'm gonna make it to the top
Well let me show you
And if I've got to toughen up
Then that is what I'll do
But don't make me a monster
Baby you'd be crazy that's for sure
Becoming a bitch is not what I got into music for
I'll make it crystal clear
I'm not going anywhere
As long as there is music
I'll be here, here
I'm gonna make it to the top
Well let me show you
And if I've got to toughen up
Then that is what I'll do
But don't make me a monster
Baby you'd be crazy that's for sure
Becoming a bitch is not what I got into music for
I'm gonna make it to the top
Well let me show you
And if I've got to toughen up
Then that is what I'll do
I've sold you a million baby
Not just maybe that's for sure
Given the chance I'll show you
I can sell a zillion more
Got It Good
If I had one wish
If I had one wish
It would be to be free
Of this fighting all around
'Cause it's so wrong
And it could be so right
In my heart I know we're here to grow
To love, to give, to learn, to live together
And I believe in miracles
Open up your eyes
Got a soul, got a mind
Got a heart that beats in time
You've got a smile, got a voice
Got the gift of love
You've got it good
Don't forget how lucky you are
Darling, darling
Use it to connect with everyone
Don't you know we're golden
Covered up with mud
One day you'll see the truth
That we all share the same blood
Supposed to love thy neighbour
Together we should stand
Whatever colour, race or creed
Come on and hold my hand
'Cause I don't differentiate
We're all the same to me
Got a soul, got a mind
Got a heart that beats in time
You've got a smile, got a voice
Got the gift of love
You've got it good, don't
Forget how lucky you are
Darling, darling
Use it to connect with everyone
And it's getting so serious
Crush my heart in pieces
But I know I'm not alone in wanting peace
No, oh
And if you feel what I feel
Raise your hands with me
Got a soul, got a mind
Got a heart that beats in time
You've got a smile, got a voice
Got the gift of love
You've got it good
Don't forget how lucky you are
Darling (darling), darling (darling)
Use it to connect with everyone
Got a soul, got a mind
Got a heart that beats in time

How Would You Like It
Put on your clothes
I know what's underneath
You think you're separate from everyone
But it's just from your Self
Without all the colors in the world
There'd be no picture
We are interwoven more than you'll ever know
So I say
Please stop talking to me
I don't agree
How would you like it
Just 'cause the colour of my skin's the same
No you don't know me
How would you like it
Please stop, stop right there with your hypocrisy
Don't wanna hear it
You don't realize if you take away any one of us
We all fall down now
I wanted to write this a long time ago
But I thought someone would say
Who are you to speak of this
Well I've got eyes and ears
And a heart and I can feel it
And it pains me more than you will ever know
And I say
Please stop talking to me
I don't agree
How would you like it
Just 'cause the colour of my skin's the same
Well you don't know me
How would you like it
Please stop, stop right there with your hypocrisy
Don't wanna hear it
You don't realize if you take away any one of us
We all fall down now
So sad, so sad
It's said we wouldn't know
Love without hate
I'd really rather just have the love
I'm tired of our history
Repeating enough is enough
Enough is enough
Please stop talking
Please stop talking to me
I don't agree
How would you like it
Just 'cause the colour of my skin's the same
Well you don't know me
How would you like it if
Oh shame, shame, shame on you
And your profanity
Can't stand to hear it
Don't you realize if you take away any one of us
We all fall down now
In the end life'll go on and on
But I for one am clear
We're all brothers and sisters
And So I Pray
Storm is brewing in the air tonight
So many pressures on my mind
Want to escape just wanna run away
But it's not an option I have to stay
And so I pray
I wish that all these things would go away
To disappear if only for a day
Know I can't go but I don't wanna stay
Can't believe the irony
The thing I wanted is killing me
All the happy smiles I miss
Didn't think it would be like this
And I pray
I wish that all these things would go away
To disappear if only for a day
Know I can't go but I don't wanna stay
Storm is brewing in the air tonight
So many pressures on my mind
Want to escape just wanna run away
But it's not an option I have to stay
And so I pray
I wish that all these things would go away
To disappear if only for a day
Know I can't go but I don't wanna stay
To be left alone if only for a day
I wish that all these things would go away
(pray to you I hope it will be alright)
To be someone else if only for a day
(and over soon, I feel it)
Know I can't go but I don't wanna stay
(hope that you hear me)
On Top Of The World
Too much information
Need to calm down, let go
Breathe in peace
Worry and anxious feelings
Need to close your eyes, let go
Breathe and release
All of a sudden the people
The talking, the telephone, all fades away
You visit a place in a timeless dimension
Where all of your fears are at bay
You can fly away
Fly like a bird
Across the sky
Above the clouds so high
Moon and the stars
Light up the sky
Presence fights illusion
It's not all as serious
As your mind wants you to think it is
Unsure of your future
Need to focus on what you want
And something will come your way
All of a sudden the negative voices
And weaknesses is all fade away
You visit a place in a timeless dimension
Where all of your fears are at bay
You can fly away
Fly like a bird
Across the sky
Above the clouds so high
Moon and the stars
Light up the sky
Sun
sets low across the bay A beautiful light Closes the day You can visit anytime It's always there Just close your eyes You
can fly away Sun sets low across the bay |
You
know, you know, you know, you know, you know If you wanna be, home free, just breathe You know, you know, you know, you know, you know If you wanna be be, home free, just breathe You know all you need, all you need, all you need All you need, is to feel connected You know all you need, all you need, all you need All you need, is to feel connected Slow down, slow down What you rushing for |
Beachwood
Canyon
Driving up to Beachwood Canyon
Through the trees, a haven on the hill
Fell in love in Beachwood Canyon
Set up home, a mattress on the floor
Take my hand I'll show you how to…
You copy you paste you lose
Dream a big dream
Wishing upon a star tonight
I do, I ooh, feel inside
Your heart's the guide
It comes alive, tonight
Got so sick in Beachwood Canyon
Hard to breath with toxins in the walls
Lived it up in Beachwood Canyon
Naked swims and singing by the pool
Life was cool
Take my hand I'll show you how to…
Dream a big dream
Wishing upon a star tonight
Only you know yours
Find your love tonight
In the hills
Wishing upon a star tonight
Let it out now, don't be shy
The canyon sighs
Dream with me tonight
So Gold
From summer to autumn
As if it's a race
The seasons are changing
And so is life's pace
And I'll always cherish
The time that we spend
'Cause nobody knows
What's round the next bend
And I'm lost forever
When I look in your eyes
Yes I'm lost forever
And the feeling inside is
So gold
Oh, so gold
From autumn to winter
The darkness moves in
But with you around me
It feels like it's spring
And I'll always pray for
Life to go slow
'Cause nobody knows
When it's time to go
And I'm lost forever
When I look in your eyes
Yes I'm lost forever
And the feeling inside is
You copy you paste you lose
So gold
Oh, so gold
From spring into summer
The cycle's complete
But time waits for no-one
And it starts to repeat
And I'll always treasure
Every second we get
'Cause I feel the same way
As the day we first met
And I'm lost forever
When I look in your eyes
Yes I'm lost forever
And the feeling inside is
So gold
Oh, so gold
Oh, so gold
Oh, so gold
My Love
I never thought that I would find
Someone so sweet and kind
And lovely as you, you, you
And I'll, I'll never let you down
I'll always be around
Forever yours and true, true
'Cause…
I love you
And I always will
Oh I, know I, was blessed
When I met you
Well I know that it has paid
To wait for all these days
For you to come my way, way, way
'Cause I wanted someone I'd adore
Who'd love me even more
Be there for me come what may
You copy you paste you lose
Oh, I love you
And I always will
You're everything
I've ever dreamed
I was blessed
When I met you
How to say
What words can't convey
What's to fear
When heaven's right here
Feel this love tonight
I have a twinkle in my eye
(Always love you)
You keep me young inside
(All my life, it's you)
Your blue eyes make me
Swoon Swoon Swoon!
And I, hope you like the song
(It's you forever)
Serenade you all night long
(Keep our love so strong)
Kiss me quick
And hold me till it's dawn
My Love
Momma
Dry your eyes, honey stop your tears it's alright
Momma's here will be by your side, all night
Brush your teeth darling eat your greens to grow strong
I know it's a pain, but you'll thank me some day
Off to school then it's college soon, grown up
Think you know so much more than me, don't ya
Heartbreaks making my heart ache for you my dear
Whatever you choose to do, I'll always love you
Momma it's just not the same
Without you here in LA
I'll chauffeur you right from the plane
Promise to come back again
You copy you paste you lose
Real world, okay store your stuff and don't fear
If all else fails there's a room for you right here
Make your music, try your best for me
How can I help, just tell me what you need
Momma it's just not the same
Without you here in LA
I'll book you a squash court
And hike in the hills
If you promise to come back soon
You get only one
I'm so happy it's you
We're on this crazy road
All together with you
Momma I just wanna say
I love you and will always
The least I can do
Is write this for you
And thank you for all
All, of our days
Don't
look back
Time, time goes by
Every second now I wonder why
Why would I ever, wanna live this way
Can I make up for the heartache and pain?
And time, I've thrown it away
Made my choices now in my bed I lay
Leave, don't look back I'm on my own now I must carry on
Leave, don't look back I'm on my own now I will carry on
Please don't look back, I'm on my own now
The birds up in the sky
Spread their wings now, oh, if only I
Could be so free, I'd fly away
And hope you forgive me someday
Leave, don't look back I'm on my own now I must carry on
Leave, don't look back I'm on my own now I will carry on
Please don't look back, I'm on my own now
You copy you paste you lose
Take my hand
Promise me please
See this face
Forget about me
Here comes the morning sunlight
Here comes
The tease…
Leave, don't look back I'm on my own now I must carry on
Leave, don't look back I'm on my own now I will carry on
Please don't look back, I'm on my own now
I'm on my own
(On my own)
On my own
(On my own)
On my own
(On my own)
On my own
(On my own)
I'm on my own now
I Sit
Up In My Window
I sit up in my window
And look towards the sun
Urged to write this song to touch the ears of everyone
The TV ticker's looping
The Words I've seen before
Conquer and divide, not gonna buy it anymore
Well I'm just one and you're just one, but if we can agree
And one day become a million, so much we can achieve
I tell you we can change the world, the power's at our feet
Watch the ripples travel and across the oceans meet
So I'm calling all my Brothers,
My Sisters stand with me
We have a voice, we have a role, it's our humanity
Let the powers that be do their thing
And we can do ours too
Blame is not constructive there's so much that we can do
The environment, well you know the score, we have to scale back
Why would we choose to gas ourselves, what lunacy is that?
Solutions they are everywhere, let's give these guys a voice
Make the corporations listen and provide a greener choice
Bring on a groovy electric car, diversify the crops
Learn from Mother Nature, the Genius of the lot
Stop buying and buying and needing MORE
It's time to trim the fat
The best things in life are free my friend
You won't miss half the crap
War can only lead to war, seen time and time again
Two Sides believing they're both right, will fight until the end
Someone must be ready, to extend the hand of peace
To break the vicious cycle is a strength beyond belief
If someone guns a man down
Or maybe it's a child
The bloodline doesn't stop there
The blood runs far and wide
The women they are screaming
The men break down and cry
Then go and find a gun to hit back
Right between the eyes
What one does to the World
He does unto himself
So think before you act my friend
Think of the consequence
When you're faced with hostility
Disputes or disdain
Think if you were in their shoes
Might you feel the very same
You copy you paste you lose
We started off as babies, we started off the same
Depending on your place of birth you're sold a different game
So don't believe everything you think, or everything you've read
The memes we've learnt from day one are from someone else's head
The TV ticker's looping
Still churning out the same
I shake my head and wonder will it always be this way
I sit up in my window
Such Beauty in full sight
Thank you all for listening, I hope these words take flight
I'm calling all my Brothers, my Sisters stand with me
'Cause I have a dream that one day we might live in Harmony
It's not science fiction baby, I hope that you'll agree
Let's sow the seeds of love and be the change we wanna see
It's in our reach
Reach for the Stars
Let's chart a course brand new
'Cause I've never lived through a time
(Never never never never never never never never)
Where disaster hasn't loomed
My Heart it is beaming now
You'll see it from the moon
Like Batman's signal shining
Every time you play this tune
Tell It
To My Heart
So what, what do I do
How to move on
How to forget about you
You gave me your word
Get up off your knees
Stop begging me please
Well tell it to my heart
'Cause it's trashed once again
And
Your sorrys cannot stop
All the hurt, all the pain
You copy you paste you lose
If I meant so much to you
Why would you risk
All that we had, all we've made
I don't know who you are
Just saying you're wrong
Does not change a thing, not anything
And tell it to my heart
'Cause it's smashed up again
Oh, your sorrys cannot stop
All the hurt, all the pain
No, no, no
And I don't wanna hear
These excuses again
This life that we live
Is not a game
Well tell it to my heart
'Cause you trashed it again
Oh yes you
And your sorrys cannot stop
All the hurt and the pain
No, no, no
Well tell it to my heart
'Cause you smashed it again
Yes you did
And your sorrys cannot stop
All the hurt and the pain
No, no, no
The Adventures Of Cupid And Puck
I had to tell you, to tell you the truth
Couldn't keep hiding my feelings from you
Figured that it was the brave thing to do
Even though deep down I sort of knew
And I found out you didn't feel quite the same
But your words were so lovely I'd hear them again
Now the brave thing is to live through the pain
Keep opening up 'cause there's no one to blame
People say there's plenty more fish in the sea
But I ain't got time to go fishing you see
'Cause I know that I've found the pearl of the sea
So why would I wanna go searching down deep
You copy you paste you lose
I suppose it's quite funny, quite funny to see
How Cupid got stoned and aimed right at me
Or maybe so tired he fell right asleep
Forgot what I wanted was your company
Or maybe inspired he was acting a scene
Taken from Shakespeare's Midsummer Night's Dream
Tired of love's failings he plotted a scheme
Cupid and Puck would've made quite a team
People say there's plenty more fish in the sea
But I ain't got time to go fishing you see
'Cause I know that I've found the pearl of the sea
Yes I know that I've found the One
But I'm not afraid of rejection this time
I won't go home, won't go home and cry
'Cause I can accept this emotion is mine
And I'm just so happy that we shared this time
Maybe one day this jewel of the sea
Will wake up feel different and come searching for me
Suddenly realize it was all meant to be
Maybe the Gods'll shine down on me
Or maybe one day something'll change
Maybe I'll wake up, won't feel quite the same
Maybe I'll wanna go fishing again
Maybe I'll wanna go fishing
Again…
Hold On
When you're down upon your knees
Asking God to hear your pleas
Hold on
When you think all hope has gone
Don't know how to carry on
Hold on
'Cause I've felt like you
Yeah I've been there too
And all I know is...
It will pass, I promise you
No storm can last forever
Hold on tight, cry your tears
These floods won't last forever
When you think you've lost it all
No one there to help you break your fall
Hold on
You copy you paste you lose
When you don't like who you've become
See your words are hurting everyone
Hold on
You copy you paste you lose
When you hurt so much inside
But too afraid to let them see you cry
Hold on
When you're overcome with pain
Lost your best friend in the world today
Hold on
'Cause I've felt like you
And I've been there too
And all I know is...
It will pass, I promise you
No storm can last forever
Hold on tight, cry your tears
Wrap up and brace the weather
Reach out for love, reach out for love
Reach out for love, reach out for love
Reach out for love, reach out for love
Reach out for love, call somebody you love
And I know you're so tired
(Reach out for love)
So tired, so tired
(Reach out for love)
Yeah I know you're so tired
(Reach out for love)
So tired, so tired
Hear me now, life goes on
Just keep your heart open
You're not alone, you never were
And that heart of yours can't be broken
No
Believe me now, life goes on
Must keep your heart open
You're not alone, you've never been
I hear your healing heart beat
Amazing Life
( Six Feet Under OST )
Come with me
I want to show you something
You don't see
You've given up trying
Watch the leaves
Rustling in the wind
The summer breeze
That's living and dying
Ah, Ah
Come with me
Remember when you were
So carefree
Laughing not crying
Spin around
And listen carefully
Can you hear the sound
Of living and dying
It's amazing, it's amazing, this amazing life
It's amazing, it's amazing, this amazing life
Come with me
Stop making it so hard
You can be
Laughing not crying
Nothing's changed
Just got to recognise
That it's a game
Of living and dying
Ah, Ah
It's amazing, it's amazing, this amazing life
It's amazing, it's amazing, this amazing life
It's amazing, it's amazing, this amazing life
It's amazing, it's amazing, this amazing life
Come on now baby please
Just look around
Look around it's there
It's good to feel alive
Feel alive, feel alive
This amazing life
It's good to feel alive
Feel alive, feel alive
This amazing life
This amazing life
Relax it's easy, relax it's easy
This amazing life
Come on now baby please
This amazing life
Come on, come on, come on with me
Relax it's easy, relax it's easy
Look around, look around
Maybe I'm
amazed
( Paul Mc Cartney Cover )
Maybe i'm amazed at the way you love me all the time
Maybe i'm afraid of the way I love you
Maybe i'm amazed at the way you pulled me out of time
And hung me on a line
Maybe i'm amazed at the way I really need you
Maybe i'm a girl and maybe i'm a lonely girl
Who's in the middle of something
That she doesn't really understand
Maybe i'm a girl and maybe you're the only man
Who could ever help me
Baby won't you help me understand
Maybe i'm a girl and maybe i'm a lonely girl
Who's in the middle of something
That she doesn't really understand
Maybe i'm a girl and maybe you're the only man
Who could ever help me
Baby won't you help me understand
Maybe i'm amazed at the way you're with me all the time
Maybe i'm afraid of the way I need you
Maybe i'm amazed at the way you help me sing my song
Right me when i'm wrong
Maybe i'm amazed at the way I really need you
Once
In Every Lifetime
( Eragon Spundtrack )
It's time to move out of the darkness
Use what you feel inside
Your faith alone will guide you
Feel the turning tide
It's in your heart
It's in your soul
Don't be scared
Keep believing
I know you know
Deep inside
That your time has come
Once in every lifetime
If you do believe
Man can move a mountain
Change the course of history
How far we've come
So far from home
Trust in your path, you've been chosen
Become your destiny
Lead and they will follow you
Your truth will set you free
It's in your heart
It's in your soul
Don't be scared
Keep believing
I know you know
Deep inside
That your time has come
Once in every lifetime
If you do believe
Man can move a mountain
Change the course of history
How far we've come
So far from home...
