[Verse 1:]
Take a breath, take it deep
Calm yourself, he says to me
If you play, you play for keeps
Take the gun, and count to three
I’m sweating now, moving slow
No time to think, my turn to go
[Chorus:]
And you can see my heart, beating
You can see it through my chest
Said I’m terrified but I’m not leaving
I know that I must pass this test
So just pull the trigger (trigger x4)
[Verse 2:]
Say a prayer, to yourself
He says close your eyes,
Sometimes it helps
And then I get, a scary thought
That he’s here, means he’s never lost
[Chorus:]
And you can see my heart, beating
Oh you can see it through my chest
And I’m terrified, but I’m not leaving
Know that I must pass this test
So just pull the trigger
[Verse 3:]
As my life flashes before my eyes
I’m wondering will I, ever see another sunrise?
So many won’t get the chance to say goodbye
But it’s too late to pick up the value of my life
[Chorus:]
And you can see my heart, beating
Oh oh you can see it through my chest
Said I’m terrified, but I’m not leaving
Know that I must pass this test
And you can see my heart, beating
Oh you can see it through my chest
I I I’m terrified but I’m not leaving (no, no)
Know that I must pass this test
So just pull the trigger
THE CLIMB
(Miley Cyrus)
I can almost see it
That dream I am dreaming
But there's a voice inside my head saying
"You'll never reach it"
Every step I'm taking
Every move I make feels
Lost with no direction
My faith is shaking
But I gotta keep trying
Gotta keep my head held high
There's always gonna be another mountain
I'm always gonna wanna make it move
Always gonna be a uphill battle
Sometimes I'm gonna have to lose
Ain't about how fast I get there
Ain't about what's waiting on the other side
It's the climb
The struggles I'm facing
The chances I'm taking
Sometimes might knock me down
But no, I'm not breaking
I may not know it
But these are the moments that
I'm gonna remember most, yeah
Just gotta keep going
And I, I got to be strong
Just keep pushing on
'Cause there's always gonna be another mountain
I'm always gonna wanna make it move
Always gonna be a uphill battle
Sometimes I'm gonna have to lose
Ain't about how fast I get there
Ain't about what's waiting on the other side
It's the climb, yeah!
There's always gonna be another mountain
I'm always gonna wanna make it move
Always gonna be an uphill battle
Somebody's gonna have to lose It's a love story baby just say yes
Ain't about how fast I get there Romeo save me, they try to tell me how to feel
Ain't about what's waiting on the other side This love is difficult, but it's real
It's the climb, yeah! Don't be afraid, we'll make it out of this mess
It's a love story baby just say yes
Keep on moving, keep climbing Oh oh
Keep the faith, baby
It's all about, it's all about the climb I got tired of waiting
Keep the faith, keep your faith, whoa Wondering if you were ever coming around
My faith in you is fading
LOVE STORY When I met you on the outskirts of town, and I said
(Taylor Swift)
We were both young when I first saw you Romeo save me I've been feeling so alone
I close my eyes I keep waiting for you but you never come
And the flashback starts Is this in my head? I don't know what to think
I'm standing there He knelt to the ground and pulled out a ring
On a balcony in summer air
And said, marry me Juliet
See the lights You'll never have to be alone
See the party, the ball gowns I love you and that's all I really know
I see you make your way through the crowd I talked to your dad, go pick out a white dress
And say hello, little did I know It's a love story baby just say yes
That you were Romeo, you were throwing pebbles Oh, oh, oh, oh
And my daddy said stay away from Juliet 'Cause we were both young when I first saw you
And I was crying on the staircase
Begging you please don't go, and I said
Romeo take me somewhere we can be alone
I'll be waiting all there's left to do is run
You'll be the prince and I'll be the princess
It's a love story baby just say yes
So I sneak out to the garden to see you
We keep quiet 'cause we're dead if they knew
So close your eyes
Escape this town for a little while
'Cause you were Romeo, I was a scarlet letter
And my daddy said stay away from Juliet
But you were everything to me
I was begging you please don't go and I said
Romeo take me somewhere we can be alone
I'll be waiting all there's left to do is run
You'll be the prince and I'll be the princess BROKEN HEARTED Girl
(Beyonce Knowles) I don’t wanna play that part I pray for her even more than me Well I no you’ll be there
You’re everything I thought you never were I know that I love you I pray for her even more than me And I can feel you
And nothing like I thought you could’ve been But let me just say When you say
But still you live inside of me I don’t want to love you in no kind of way no no I know I’m praying for much too much
So tell me how is that? I don’t want a broken heart But could you send back the only man she loved I promise you
And I don’t wanna play the broken-hearted girl...No…No I know you don’t do it usually I’m always there
You’re the only one I wish I could forget No broken-hearted girl But dear Lord she’s dying When your heart is full of sadness and despair
The only one I’d love enough to not forgive To dance with my father again I’ll carry you
And though you break my heart, you’re the only one Now I’m at a place I thought I’d never be…Oooo When you need a friend
And though there are times when I hate you I’m living in a world that’s all about you and me…yeah Every night I fall asleep and this is all I ever dream You’ll find my footprints in the sand x 2
Cause I can’t erase Ain't gotta be afraid my broken heart is free oooooo mmmmmmmm
The times that you hurt me To spread my wings and fly away FOOTPRINTS IN THE SAND
And put tears on my face Away With you (Leona Lewis) ONE NIGHT ONLY
And even now while I hate you yeah yeah yeah, ohh ohh ohh You walked with me (Jennifer Hudson)
It pains me to say Footprints in the sand You want all my love and my devotion
I know I’ll be there at the end of the day I don’t wanna be without my baby And helped me understand You want my loving soul right on the line
I don’t wanna a broken heart Where I’m going I have no doubt that I could love you forever
I don’t wanna be without you babe Don’t want to take a breath with out my baby You walked with me The only trouble is, you really don't have the time
I don’t want a broken heart I don’t wanna play that part When I was all alone You've got one night only, one night only
Don’t wanna take a breath with out you babe I know that I love you With so much I no along the way That's all you have to spare
I don’t wanna play that part But let me just say Then I heard you say One night only, let's not pretend to care
I know that I love you I don’t want to love you in no kind of way..No..No
One night only, one night only
But let me just say I don’t want a broken heart I promise you Come on big baby come on
I don’t want to love you in no kind of way no no I don’t wanna play the broken-hearted girl..No..No.. I’m always there One night only, we only have 'til dawn
I don’t want a broken heart No broken-hearted girl When your heart is filled with sorrow and despair In the morning this feeling will be gone
And I don’t wanna play the broken-hearted girl...No...No Broken-hearted girl No…no… I’ll carry you It has no chance going on
No broken-hearted girl No broken-hearted girl When you need a friend Something so right has got no chance to live
I’m no broken-hearted girl No broken-hearted girl You’ll find my footprints in the sand So let's forget about chances, this one night I will give
One night only one night only ull be the only one
Something that I feel I need to say DANCE WITH MY FATHER AGAIN I see my life One night only then you'll have to run
But up to now I’ve always been afraid (Celine Dion) Flash across the sky One night only one night only theres nothing more to say
That you would never come around Back when I was a child So many times have I One night only words get in the way
And still I want to put this out Before life removed all the innocence Been so afraid ooh One night only
You say you’ve got the most respect for me My father would lift me high and dance with my mother And just when I One night only
But sometimes I feel you’re not deserving me and me and then Have thought I’ve lost my way One night only
And still you’re in my heart Spin me around ‘til I fell asleep
But you’re the only one and yes Then up the stairs he would carry me You give me strength to carry on
There are times when I hate you And I knew for sure I was loved That’s when I heard you say
But I don’t complain
Cause I’ve been afraid that you would've walk away If I could get another chance, another walk, another I promise you
Oh but now I don’t hate you dance with him I’m always there
I’m happy to say I’d play a song that would never ever end When your heart is filled with sorrow and despair
That I will be there at the end of the day How I’d love, love, love I’ll carry you
To dance with my father again When you need a friend
I don’t wanna be without you babe You’ll find my footprints in the sand
I don’t want a broken heart Sometimes I’d listen outside her door
Don’t wanna take a breath with out you babe And I’d hear how mama cried for him When I’m weary THE ONLY EXCEPTION
(Paramore) (Fergie) I need to be with myself, and center 'Cause I'm just trying to be happy, oh, happy, oh
when i was younger i saw The smell of your skin lingers on me now Clarity, peace, serenity
my daddy cry You're probably on your flight back to your home town So any turns that I can't see
and curse at the wind I need some shelter of my own protection, baby I hope you know, I hope you know Like I'm a stranger on this road
he broke his own heart To be with myself and center That this has nothing to do with you But don't say victim, don't say anything
and I watched Clarity, peace, serenity It's personal, myself and I
as he tried to reassemble it We've got some straightenin' out to do So what if it hurts me?
and my momma swore I hope you know, I hope you know So what if I break down?
that she would That this has nothing to do with you And I'm gonna miss you like a child misses their blanket So what if this world just throws me off the edge
never let herself forget It's personal, myself and I But I've got to get a move on with my life My feet run out of ground?
and that was the day that I promised We've got some straightenin' out to do It's time to be a big girl now
I'd never sing of love And big girls don't cry I gotta find my place, I wanna hear my sound
if it does not exist And I'm gonna miss you like a child misses their blanket Don't cry, don't cry, don't cry Don't care about all the pain in front of me
But I've got to get a move on with my life I just wanna be happy, oh, yeah, happy, oh, happy
CHORUS: It's time to be a big girl now HAPPY I just wanna be, oh, I just wanna be happy
But Darlin... And big girls don't cry (Leona Lewis) Oh, happy
you are the only exception Don't cry, don't cry, don't cry Someone once told me that you have to choose
you are the only exception What you win or lose, you can't have everything
you are the only exception The path that I'm walkin', I must go alone Don't you take chances, you might feel the pain
you are the only exception I must take the baby steps 'til I'm full grown, full grown Don't you love in vain 'cause love won't set you free
Fairy tales don't always have a happy ending, do they? I could stand by the side and watch this life pass me by
maybe i know somewhere And I foresee the dark ahead if I stay So unhappy, but safe as could be
deep in my soul
that love never lasts I hope you know, I hope you know So what if it hurts me?
and we've got to find other ways That this has nothing to with you So what if I break down?
to make it alone It's personal, myself and I So what if this world just throws me off the edge
keep a straight face We've got some straightenin' out to do My feet run out of ground?
and i've always lived like this, keeping a comfortable [ From : http://www.elyrics.net/read/f/fergie-lyrics/big-
distance girls-don_t-cry-lyrics.html ] I gotta find my place, I wanna hear my sound
and up until now i had sworn to myself that I'm content Don't care about all the pain in front of me
with loneliness And I'm gonna miss you like a child misses their blanket 'Cause I'm just trying to be happy, ya
because none of it was ever worth the risk But I've got to get a move on with my life Just wanna be happy, ya
CHORUS It's time to be a big girl now
And big girls don't cry Holding on tightly, just can't let it go
Bridge: Just trying to play my role, slowly disappear, oh
i've got a tight grip on reality Like the little school mate in the school yard But all these days, they feel like they're the same
but i can't let go of what's in front of me here We'll play jacks and Uno cards Just different faces, different names, get me out of here
i know you're leaving in the morning when you wake up I'll be your best friend and you'll be mine But I can't stand by your side, oh no
leave me with some kind of proof it's not a dream Valentine And watch this life pass me by, pass me by
oh oh oh
Yes, you can hold my hand if you want to So what if it hurts me?
CHORUS 'Cause I want to hold yours too So what if I break down?
repeat chorus 1x We'll be playmates and lovers So what if this world just throws me off the edge
And share our secret worlds My feet run out of ground?
and I'm on my way to believing
oh and I'm on my way to believing But it's time for me to go home I gotta find my place, I wanna hear my sound
BIG GIRLS DON’T CRY It's getting late, dark outside Don't care about all the pain in front of me
