It was worth it in the end... ;)

How the time passed away, all the trouble that we gave
And all those days we spent out by the lake
Has it all gone to waste? All the promises we made
One by one they vanish just the same

Of all the things I still remember
Summer's never looked the same
The years go by and time just seems to fly
But the memories remain

In the middle of September we'd still play out in the rain
Nothing to lose but everything to gain
Reflecting now on how things could've been
It was worth it in the end

Now it all seems so clear, there's nothing left to fear
So we made our way by finding what was real
Now the days are so long that summer's moving on
We reach for something that's already gone, yeah

Of all the things I still remember
Summer's never looked the same
The years go by and time just seems to fly
But the memories remain

In the middle of September we'd still play out in the rain
Nothing to lose but everything to gain
Reflecting now on how things could've been
It was worth it in the end

Yeah, we knew we had to leave this town
But we never knew when
And we never knew how
We would end up here the way we are

Yeah, we knew we had to leave this town
But we never knew when
And we never knew how
Never knew how

Of all the things I still remember
Summer's never looked the same
The years go by and time just seems to fly
But the memories remain

In the middle of September we'd still play out in the rain
Nothing to lose but everything to gain
Reflecting now on how things could've been
It was worth it in the end

First Impressions - Adrian Johnston - Becoming Jane.

And I still can see Blue Velvet through my tears

She wore Blue Velvet
Bluer than velvet was the night
Softer than satin was the light
From the stars

She wore blue velvet
Bluer than velvet were her eyes
Warmer than May her tender sighs
Love was ours

Ours a love I held tightly
Feeling the rapture grow
Like a flame burning brightly
But when she left gone was the glow of

She wore Blue Velvet
But in my heart there'll always be
Precious and warm a memory through the years
And I still can see Blue Velvet through my tears

She wore Blue Velvet
But in my heart there'll always be
Precious and warm a memory through the years
And I still can see Blue Velvet through my tears

She wore Blue Velvet
But in my heart there'll always be
Precious and warm a memory through the years
And I still can see Blue Velvet through my tears

Sakura no hanabira~

Na mo nai hana ni wa namae o tsukemashou  kono yo ni hitotsu shika nai
fuyu no samusa ni uchihishigarenai you ni
dareka no koe de mata okiagareru you ni
[Let's give a name to this nameless flower, the one-and-only in this world. 
That way, it will survive under the heavy weight of winter's bitter cold, 
and then rise up once again as soon as someone calls its name.]

Tsuchi no naka de nemuru inochi no katamari  asufaruto oshinokete
au tabi ni itsumo  aenai toki no samishisa
wakeau futari  taiyou to tsuki no you de
[That life, dormant under the cold earth, will push through the hard asphalt. 
Whenever we meet, we can always sense our shared loneliness 
felt when we're unable to meet, just like the sun and the moon.]

Mi no naranai hana mo  tsubomi no mama chiru hana mo
anata to dareka no kore kara o  haru no kaze o abite mite'ru
[Even the flowers that don't bear fruit, and even the flowers that scatter as buds, 
bathed in spring's breezes, they are watching the future of you and your someone.]

Sakura no hanabira chiru tabi ni  todokanu omoi ga mata hitotsu
namida to egao ni kesarete'ku  soshite mata otona ni natta
oikakeru dake no kanashimi wa  tsuyoku kiyoraka na kanashimi wa
itsu made mo kawaru koto no nai  nakusanaide  kimi no naka ni  saku love...
[Whenever the cherry blossoms fall, another love has gone unrequited 
and is slowly erased by tears and smiles. Then, another one of us grows up. 
The sorrow of constantly chasing after, that strong and pure sorrow, 
it will never change, so don't lose it, as it will one day bloom as love within you...]

Machi no naka mikaketa kimi wa samishige ni  hitogomi ni magirete'ta
ano koro no sunda hitomi no oku no kagayaki
toki no hayasa ni yogosarete shimawanu you ni
[When I saw you on the street, you looked lonesome as you merged into the crowd. 
That radiance embedded deep within your eyes from back then, 
please do not ever let the swiftness of time smear it.]

Nani mo hanasanaide  kotoba ni naranai hazu sa
nagashita namida wa ame to nari  boku no kokoro no kizu iyasu
[Do not say a word, as words cannot convey our feelings in this moment. 
Your shed tears, turning into raindrops, heal the wounds of my heart.]

Hito wa mina kokoro no kishibe ni  tebanashitakunai hana ga aru
sore wa takumashii hana ja naku  hakanaku yureru ichirinka
hanabira no kazu to onaji dake  ikite yuku tsuyosa o kanjiru
arashi fuku  kaze ni utarete mo  yamanai ame wa nai hazu to
[On the river bank of everyone's heart, there is a flower they don't want to forgo. 
That is not a sturdy flower, but rather a lone flower swaying frailly. 
You can sense its determination to live, as sure as the number of its petals. 
Even beaten down by the stormy winds, it still believes that no rain will go on forever.]

Sakura no hanabira chiru tabi ni  todokanu omoi ga mata hitotsu
namida to egao ni kesarete'ku  soshite mata otona ni natta
oikakeru dake no kanashimi wa  tsuyoku kiyoraka na kanashimi wa
itsu made mo kawaru koto no nai  kimi no naka ni  boku no naka ni  saku love...
[Whenever the cherry blossoms fall, another love has gone unrequited 
and is slowly erased by tears and smiles. Then, another one of us grows up. 
The sorrow of constantly chasing after, that strong and pure sorrow, 
is the love that will one day bloom within you and within me...]

Na mo nai hana ni wa namae o tsukemashou  kono yo ni hitotsu shika nai
fuyu no samusa ni uchi hishigarenai you ni
dareka no koe de mata okiagareru you ni
[Let's give a name to this nameless flower, the one-and-only in this world. 
That way, it will survive under the heavy weight of winter's bitter cold, 
and then rise up once again as soon as someone calls its name.]

SAKURA - Kumaki Anri

kokoro ni aru hana wo~

bokura ga kakenuketa toki asu he to mukau tabi
ooku wo katarazu mizukara sono saki wo misueteku
[The time we've passed together, on the journey towards tomorrow
not having much to say, we look at the older selves we've been before]

isshun mayou kedo kanarazu michi ga aru todoka nai you na gooru nante nai
[We might have been momentarily lost but certainly there is a path forward, there's no such thing as an unreachable goal]

tooku ni mieteta butai ni matsu mono wa nani darou
kokoro ni maita sono tane wa itsuka kitto mebuku n da
nemure nai hitori no yoru meguru shikou kairo wa satoru
‘ima no jibun de machigai nai ?’ tte sa
[What is it that awaits us on the stage we can see in the distance?
the seeds we sow in our hearts, will someday bud for sure
alone on a sleepless night, repeatedly thinking about it i understood
"there can be no mistake about who i am now"]

kokoro ni aru hana wo karasazu ni sakaseyou
yume ga yagate tashika na kagayaki he kawaru you ni
yumemita sono keshiki wa kesshite iroasezu ni
towa ni bokura no mune ni kizamareru no dakara
kyou no hi mo koko ni ‘boku’ toiu imi wo umu kumori naki soboku na hikari da
[The flower in your heart, let it not dry but bloom
so that your dreams will soon turn radiant
make the scene you dreamt about never fade
so that we will forever keep it in mind
here on this day too we will give meaning to the word "me", it's a simple cloudless light]

mou make nai to chikatta ano yoru no namida wo
nugutta sono toki ni yadotta tamashii ga atte
wasurenai hibi wo koete yatto tadori tsuketa basho ni
‘koukai’ nante mon wa hitsuyou na itte sa
[Vow never to lose again, wipe away the tears shed that night and feel the spirit of the moment
break through the routines of every day and you will definitely get somewhere
there is no need for something like "regret"]

kokoro ni saku hana wo taisetsu ni sodateyou
tokini ame ni utare toki ni kaze ni fukare
yagate hana wa kuchite mo umare yuku inochi ga aru

nichijou no hibi koso kiseki bokutachi ga tsumuideku kiseki
sagasu no wa ‘tokubetsu’ de wa naku nichijou toiu na no me no mae no kiseki
[Take care of the blooming flower in your heart, sometimes rain will strike on it and sometimes wind will blow on it
even if a flower eventually wilts, it lives to give life
in the never ending chain of life, "me" still carries it's meaning
that day we will all be smiling, looking at the flower that is in full bloom
tell it to those who look at who we are now
the ordinary every day is a miracle too, we ourselves are an unfolding miracle
what we should look for is not something "special", it is the miracle right before our eyes called our ordinary days]

kagayaita kyou ni kansha to oshimi naku tsudzuku hakushu wo
moetsukita bokura ga ima idaku hokori koso motsu beki hitsuzen
itsuka kyou ga kako ni kawari ‘ima’ ni make sou ni natte mo
bokutachi wa omoidasu darou jounetsu ni somatta hibi wo
[The day when you shine, the gratitude continues on with the generous applause
and when it ends, we must be able to hold on to the pride we had
so that after that, even when the "now" seems to be heading for defeat
we will still remember it, the days that were filled with passion]

kokoro ni aru hana wo itsu made mo sakaseyou
tatoe mizu ga tsukite mo tatoe yami ga ootte mo
owari toiu hajimari hajimari toiu na no owari
bokutachi wa mada aruiteku bokutachi ga mada aruiteku
sono saki ni michi naru ie nu itami ga matsu tomo hitasura ni tsudzuku mirai ga mitai
hito hira no awai kiseki wo mitai
[The flower in your heart, let it always bloom
even if the water runs out, even if the darkness covers it
the beginning called the end, and the end that is called the beginning
we are still walking on, it is us who are still walking on
even if we don't know if the previous pain can possibly be healed, we still earnestly want to see the future
to see the fleeting miracle of each falling petal]

Kokoro No Hana Wo Sakaseyou - Ikimonogakari

Don't let anyone wake me...I'm dreamin' out loud...

Well, hello sir, we look for Monday
Is confident we’ll get there someday
Pushing all the papers to a wealthy man
Might I say, a beautiful tie you wear
And how do you find such lovely polka dots
And stripes these days?

Break all my thoughts hit the floor
Like I'm makin' the score
I'm the king of the world, I'm a popular man
Count by zero's to ten
If you can't, well, I can
Don't let anyone wake me

I'm dreamin' out loud, dreamin' out loud
And all at once, so familiar it seems
I'm dreamin' out loud, dreamin' out loud
Can't find a puzzle to fit into piece, apart of me

Curtain calls in sanctuary
Actors in the cloth, they freak me out
Mockin' my purpose in the magazines
And famous how they make you feel grand
They’re always there to hold your hand
In times of trouble, they’re best of friends

Break all my thoughts hit the floor
Like I'm makin' the score
I'm the king of the world, I'm a popular man
Count by zero’s to ten
If you can't, well I can
Don't let anyone wake me

I'm dreamin' out loud, dreamin' out loud
And all at once, so familiar it seems
I'm dreamin' out loud, dreamin' out loud
Can't find a puzzle to fit into piece, apart of me

They don't care what you say
They don't care what you think
All they care, what you do
Long as you're off beat
Take a look at yourself

Storm tries to come and wreck my world
No, I won't let it
Stumbled escape, through anchored drapes
No way to bedding

I'm dreamin' out loud, dreamin' out loud
And all at once, so familiar it seems
I'm dreamin' out loud, dreamin' out loud
Can't find a puzzle to fit into piece
I'm dreamin' out loud, I'm loud
Can't find a puzzle to fit into piece, apart of me

Well, hello sir, we look for Mondays

Dreaming Out Loud - One Republic

I hate to break it to you babe... But I'm not drowning...

Keep drinking coffee, stare me down across the table

While I look outside

So many things I'd say if only I were able

But I just keep quiet and count the cars that pass by

You've got opinions, man

We're all entitled to 'em

But I never asked

So let me thank you for your time

And try not to waste any more of mine

Get out of here fast

I hate to break it to you babe

But I'm not drowning

There's no one here to save

Who cares if you disagree? You are not me

Who made you king of anything?

So, you dare tell me who to be

Who died and made you king of anything?

You sound so innocent

All full of good intent

Swear you know best

But you expect me to

Jump up onboard with you

Ride off into your delusional sunset

I'm not the one who's lost

With no direction, oh

But you'll never see

You're so busy making masks

With my name on it in all caps

You've got the talking down

Just not the listening

Who cares if you disagree? You are not me

Who made you king of anything?

So you dare tell me who to be

Who died and made you king of anything?

All my life I've tried

To make everybody happy while I just hurt and hide

Waiting for someone to tell me it's my turn

To decide

Who cares if you disagree? You are not me

Who made you king of anything?

So you dare tell me who to be

Who died and made you king of anything?

Who cares if you disagree? You are not me

Who made you king of anything?

So you dare tell me who to be

Who died and made you king of anything?

Let me hold your crown, babe

King of Anything - Sara Bareilles

And let me rest in pieces.~

Look at me, my depth perception must be off again.

Cause this hurts deeper than I thought it did.

It has not healed with time

It just shot down my spine.

You look so beautiful tonight 

Remind me how you laid us down

And gently smiled before you destroyed my life.

Would you find it in your heart?

To make this go away 

And let me rest in pieces

Would you find it in your heart?

To make it go away 

And let me rest in pieces.

Look at me, my depth perception must be off again

You got much closer than I thought you did.

I'm in your reach.

You held me in your hands.

Would you find it in your heart?

To make this go away 

And let me rest in pieces

Would you find it in your heart?

To make it go away 

And let me rest in pieces.

Would you find it in your heart?

To make this go away 

And let me rest in pieces

Would you find it in your heart?

To make it go away 

And let me rest in pieces.

Rest in pieces - Saliva

We're driving all night long...We gotta take a chance...But it's gotta be tonight...

Gotta keep your head up and move along, move along
Gotta keep your head calm and carry on, carry on

Gotta keep your head up and move along, move along
Gotta keep your head calm and carry on, carry on

Gotta keep your bright song and cruise along, cruise along
Gotta keep your head up and move along, move along

We're driving all night long chasing miles and breaking dawn
We gotta take a chance while we're still young
But it's gotta be tonight
It's gotta be tonight

Gotta keep your head up and stay awake, stay awake
Gotta keep your head up and stay awake, stay awake
This road is rough gonna be heartache, heartache
Gotta keep your head up and stay awake, stay awake

We're driving all night long chasing miles and breaking dawn
We gotta take a chance while we're still young
But it's gotta be tonight
It's gotta be tonight

Gotta keep your head up and move along, move along
Gotta keep your head calm and carry on, carry on
Gotta keep your bright song and cruise along, cruise along
Gotta keep your head up and move along, move along

We're driving all night long chasing miles and breaking dawn
We gotta take a chance while we're still young
But it's gotta be tonight
It's gotta be tonight
It's gotta be tonight
It's gotta be tonight
It's gotta be tonight

Gotta be Tonight - Lifehouse

Don't break me down, don't leave me now, don't say good bye~

I've been out on that open road
You can be my full time, daddy
White and gold
Singing blues has been getting old
You can be my full time, baby
Hot or cold

Don't break me down
I've been travelin' too long
I've been trying too hard
With one pretty song

I hear the birds on the summer breeze, I drive fast
I am alone in the night
Been tryin' hard not to get into trouble, but I
I've got a war in my mind
So, I just ride
Just ride, I just ride, I just ride

Dying young and I'm playing hard
That's the way my father made his life an art
Drink all day and we talk 'til dark
That's the way the road dogs do it, ride 'til dark.

Don't leave me now
Don't say good bye
Don't turn around
Leave me high and dry

I hear the birds on the summer breeze, I drive fast
I am alone in the night
Been tryin' hard not to get into trouble, but I
I've got a war in my mind
I just ride
Just ride, I just ride, I just ride

I'm tired of feeling like I'm fucking crazy
I'm tired of driving 'til I see stars in my eyes
It's all I've got to keep myself sane, baby
So I just ride, I just ride

I hear the birds on the summer breeze, I drive fast
I am alone in the night
Been tryin' hard not to get into trouble, but I
I've got a war in my mind
I just ride
Just ride, I just ride, I just ride

Ride - Lana del Rey

Burning red~

Loving him is like driving a new Maserati down a dead-end street
Faster than the wind, passionate as sin ending so suddenly
Loving him is like trying to change your mind once you're already flying through the free fall
Like the colors in autumn, so bright just before they lose it all

Losing him was blue like I'd never known
Missing him was dark grey all alone
Forgetting him was like trying to know somebody you never met
But loving him was red
Loving him was red

Touching him was like realizing all you ever wanted was right there in front of you
Memorizing him was as easy as knowing all the words to your old favorite song
Fighting with him was like trying to solve a crossword and realizing there's no right answer
Regretting him was like wishing you never found out that love could be that strong

Losing him was blue like I'd never known
Missing him was dark grey all alone
Forgetting him was like trying to know somebody you never met
But loving him was red
Oh, red
Burning red

Remembering him comes in flashbacks and echoes

Tell myself it's time now, gotta let go
But moving on from him is impossible
When I still see it all in my head
Burning red
Loving him was red

Oh, losing him was blue like I'd never known
Missing him was dark grey all alone
Forgetting him was like trying to know somebody you never met
'Cause loving him was red
Yeah, yeah, red
We're burning red

And that's why he's spinnin' 'round in my head
Comes back to me, burning red
Yeah, yeah

'Cause love was like driving a new Maserati down a dead-end street

Red  - Taylor Swift

Said "Goodnight darlin'," with a sweet southern drawl...

Maybe he's in Texas, maybe this town
Maybe Oklahoma plowin' up some ground
Southern Carolina, somewhere on the coast,
Maybe Alabama, drivin' thru Montgomery right now.
There's somethin' 'bout a boy from the South.

Maybe he's in Florida, somewhere in the pines,
Maybe on the delta throwin' out a line,
Maybe he's in Georgia, starin' at the stars,
Maybe Tennessee pickin' on a guitar right now.
There's somethin' 'bout a boy from the south

Yeah, the first time I felt it I was only 16,
And he kissed me underneath the chinaberry tree.
Said "Goodnight darlin'," with a sweet southern drawl.
Man, I think I might just have to love them all --
My boys from the South.

Maybe in Kentucky, workin' in the mine.
Maybe down in Little Rock, just to pass the time.
Maybe he's somewhere in New Orleans,
Livin' it up in the Big Easy right now.
There's somethin' 'bout a boy from the South.

Yea, the first time I felt it I was only 16,
And he kissed me underneath the chinaberry tree.
Said "Goodnight darlin'," with a sweet southern drawl.
Man, I think I might just have to love them all --
My boys from the South.

Maybe he's in Texas, maybe this town.
My boys from the South.

Call out my name underneath this moonlight...

Aoi aoi sora ni tsuki no hikari wo tomosu
Amaku awaku omoi sonna mono ni torawarete
[In the blue, blue sky, I turn on the moon's light
Sweetly, faintly heavy--captured by things like that]

Kono tsukiakari no shita hitori shirazu
Kimi no namae dake wo yondeita
Itsumademo mirai wo sagashiteta
Kono hikari no naka ni...
[Without knowing I'm alone underneath this moonlight
I called out only your name
I've been searching for the future forever
Inside this light...]

Itsumo itsumo soba de shinjiteyuku chikara ga
Tooku moroi mono wo ugokashiteru ki ga shiteta
[I've got a feeling that fragile things are being moved far off
By the power of always, always believing you'll be near me]

Kono tsukiakari no shita hitori shirazu
Kimi no namae dake wo yondeita
Shizukana aijou wo shinjiteta
Kono hikari no naka ni...
[Without knowing I'm alone underneath this moonlight
I called out only your name
I believed in quiet affection
Inside this light...]

Nani mo tsukamenai you na yoru ni wa

There isn't a day I don't think about it

[There isn't a day I don't think about it
On nights where it's like I can't catch hold of anything
There isn't a day I don't think about it
May my hesitating heart reach you]

Kono tsukiakari no shita de watashi no namae wo yonde
Tashika ni ainiyuku yo doko he demo

I promise I'll go see you, no matter where
To your side]

Kono tsukiakari matataki hitotsu sezu
Shizuka ni watashi wo mitsumeteita

You quietly gazed at me
I've been searching for the future with you
Inside this light...]

Happy Birthday There__Shegoes!! ;)

But you went away...How dare you? I miss you...

Weather man said it’s gonna snow
By now I should be used to the cold
Mid-February shouldn’t be so scary
It was only December
I still remember the presents, the tree, you and me

But you went away
How dare you?
I miss you
They say I’ll be OK
But I’m not going to ever get over you

Living alone here in this place
I think of you, and I’m not afraid
Your favorite records make me feel better
Cause you sing along
With every song
I know you didn’t mean to give them to me

But you went away
How dare you?
I miss you
They say I’ll be OK
But I’m not going to ever get over you

It really sinks in, you know, when I see it in stone

Cause you went away,
How dare you?
I miss you
They say I’ll be OK
But I’m not going to ever get over you

Over You - Miranda Lambert

Baby, I'm coming for you...

I'm hell on heels

Say what you will

I done made the devil a deal

He made me pretty

He made me smart

And I'm gonna break me a million hearts

I'm hell on heels

Baby, I'm coming for you

This diamond ring

On my hand's

The only good thing

That came from that man

Got a G.T.O. from one named Joe

And a big piece of land down in Mexico

I'm hell on heels

Baby, I'm coming for you

I got a pink guitar

A Lincoln town car

From ol' what's his name

I meet at a bar

Got a high rise flat in Hollywood

From a married man who wasn't up to no good

I'm hell on heels

Baby, I'm coming for you

Then there's Jim

I almost forgot I ran him off

But I took the yacht

Poor ol' Billy

Bless his heart

I'm still using his credit card

I'm hell on heels

Sugar daddy, I'm coming for you

I'm hell on heels

Say what you will

I done made the devil a deal

He made me pretty

He made me smart

And I'm gonna break me a million hearts

I'm hell on heels

Baby, I'm coming for you

I'm hell on heels

Say what you will

I done made the devil a deal

He made me pretty

He made me smart

I'm gonna break me a million hearts

I'm hell on heels

Sugar daddy, I'm coming for you
