Drift Away by Uncle Kracker

Day after day I'm more confused
Yet I look for the light through the pouring rain
You know that's a game that I hate to lose
and I'm feelin' the strain, ain't it a shame

Oh, give me the beat, boys, and free my soul
I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away
Give me the beat, boys, and free my soul
I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away
Won't you take me away....?

Beginnin' to think that I'm wastin' time
I don't understand the things I do
The world outside looks so unkind
And I'm countin' on you. Oh you can carry me through

Oh, give me the beat, boys, and free my soul
I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away
Give me the beat, boys, and free my soul
I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away
Won't you take me away...?

And when my mind is free
You know a melody can move me
When I'm feelin' blue
The guitar's comin' through to soothe me.

Thanks for the joy that you've given me (ohhh the joy that you have given me)
I want you to know that I believe in your song (ohh yeah)
Rhythm and rhyme and harmony (hmmmmmmm)
You help me along (makin' me strong) oh you're makin' me strong

Oh, give me the beat, boys, and free my soul
I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away (drift away)
Oh, give me the beat, boys, and free my soul
I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away (drift away)

Give me the beat, boys, and free my soul
I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away (drift away)
Oh, give me the beat, boys, and free my soul
I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away

Won't you take me away? (ooh)

Fast Car by Tracy Chapman

You got a fast car
I want a ticket to anywhere
Maybe we make a deal
Maybe together we can get somewhere

Anyplace is better
Starting from zero got nothing to lose
Maybe we'll make something
But me myself I got nothing to prove

You got a fast car
And I got a plan to get us out of here
I been working at the convenience store
Managed to save just a little bit of money
We won't have to drive too far
Just 'cross the border and into the city
You and I can both get jobs
And finally see what it means to be living

You see my old man's got a problem
He live with the bottle that's the way it is
He says his body's too old for working
I say his body's too young to look like his
My mama went off and left him
She wanted more from life than he could give
I said somebody's got to take care of him
So I quit school and that's what I did

You got a fast car
But is it fast enough so we can fly away
We gotta make a decision
We leave tonight or live and die this way

So remember we were driving driving in your car
The speed so fast I felt like I was drunk
City lights lay out before us
And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder
And I had a feeling that I belonged
And I had a feeling I could be someone, be someone, be someone

You got a fast car
And we go cruising to entertain ourselves
You still ain't got a job
And I work in a market as a checkout girl
I know things will get better
You'll find work and I'll get promoted
We'll move out of the shelter
Buy a big house and live in the suburbs

So remember we were driving driving in your car
The speed so fast I felt like I was drunk
City lights lay out before us
And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder
And I had a feeling that I belonged
And I had a feeling I could be someone, be someone, be someone

You got a fast car
And I got a job that pays all our bills
You stay out drinking late at the bar
See more of your friends than you do of your kids
I'd always hoped for better
Thought maybe together you and me would find it
I got no plans I ain't going nowhere
So take your fast car and keep on driving

So remember we were driving driving in your car
The speed so fast I felt like I was drunk
City lights lay out before us
And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder
And I had a feeling that I belonged
And I had a feeling I could be someone, be someone, be someone

You got a fast car
But is it fast enough so you can fly away
You gotta make a decision
You leave tonight or live and die this way

When You Say Nothing At All by Ronan Keating

It's amazing how you can speak right to my heart
Without saying a word you can light up the dark
Try as I may I can never explain
What I hear when you don't say a thing

The smile on your face lets me know that you need me
There's a truth in your eyes saying you'll never leave me
The touch of your hand says you'll catch me wherever I fall
You say it best when you say nothing at all

All day long I can hear people talking out loud
but when you hold me near you drown out the crowd
try as they may they could never define
Whats being said between your heart and mine

The smile on your face lets me know that you need me
There's a truth in your eyes saying you'll never leave me
The touch of your hand says you'll catch me wherever I fall
You say it best when you say nothing at all

The smile on your face lets me know that you need me
There's a truth in your eyes saying you'll never leave me
The touch of your hand says you'll catch me where ever I fall
You say it best when you say nothing at all

That Smile on your face
The truth in your eyes
The touch of your hand lets me know that you need me

Because Of You by Kelly Clarkson

I will not make the same mistakes that you did
I will not let myself cause my heart so much misery
I will not break the way you did
You fell so hard
I've learned the hard way, to never let it get that far

Because of you
I never stray too far from the sidewalk
Because of you
I learned to play on the safe side
So I don't get hurt
Because of you
I find it hard to trust
Not only me, but everyone around me
Because of you
I am afraid

I lose my way
And it's not too long before you point it out
I cannot cry
Because I know that's weakness in your eyes
I'm forced to fake a smile, a laugh
Everyday of my life
My heart can't possibly break
When it wasn't even whole to start with

Because of you
I'll never stray too far from the sidewalk
Because of you
I learned to play on the safe side
So I don't get hurt
Because of you
I find it hard to trust
Not only me, but everyone around me
Because of you
I am afraid

I watched you die
I heard you cry
Every night in your sleep
I was so young
You should have known better than to lean on me
You never thought of anyone else
You just saw your pain
And now I cry
In the middle of the night
For the same damn thing

Because of you
I never stray too far from the sidewalk
Because of you
I learned to play on the safe side so I don't get hurt
Because of you
I tried my hardest just to forget everything
Because of you
I don't know how to let anyone else in
Because of you
I'm ashamed of my life because it's empty
Because of you
I am afraid

Because of you ohhhhhhhhh
because of youuuu youuuu you

Stranger In A Strange Land by Barbra Streisand

You may be someone else's sweetheart
Fighting someone else's war
And if you suffer for the millions
Then it's what you're fighting for

Someone believe in only light of day
Someone strong enough to show the way
Someone everyone believes in
Someone who will stand by you

And I will be your heart and mind
My love is on the line
I know is how I'm gonna stay
For a stranger in a strange land
Far away
And love will make your spirit shine
I feel your hand in mine
I write a letter every single day
To a stranger in a strange land
Far away

May we share the most tomorrows
I will hear you when you cry
Should we let it come between us
Never knowing how we live or die
I will walk you though the pouring rain
I will help you learn to live and love again
Give 'em hell before you go to heaven
By send you home again

And I will be your heart and mind
My love is on the line
I know it's how I'm gonna stay
To a stranger in a strange land
Far away

And somewhere in the lonely night
Your flame is burning bright
I know it's how I'm gonna stay
To a stranger in a strange land
Far away

And just to see your spirit shine
To feel your hand in mine
I write a letter every single day
To a stranger in a strange land
Far away
Ooh...

Far away
Oh...Far away...Ooh...
