Wow, this song has currently climbed into the Billboard top 10. Congratulations Ellie Goulding! Share this great news on Twitter if you are her fans.
I had a way then
Losing it all on my own
I had a heart then
But the queen has been overthrown
And I'm not sleeping now
The dark is too hard to beat
And I'm not keeping up
The strength I need to push me
You show the lights that stop me turn to stone
You shine them when I'm alone
And so I tell myself that I'll be strong
And dreaming when they're gone
Cuz they're calling, calling, calling me home
Calling, calling, calling home
You show the lights that stop me turn to stone
You shine them when I'm alone
Noises, I play within my head
Touch my own skin
And hope they'll still be there
And I think back to when
My brother and my sister slept
In another place
The only time I feel safe
Repeat Chorus
Lights, lights (x14)
Repeat Chorus

Wide Awake - Katy Perry
"Wide Awake" is going to be featured in Perry's upcoming 3D flick Katy Perry: Part of Me. Billed as the final chapter of the Teenage Dream era, 'Wide Awake' unsurprisingly sees Perry in reflective mode. We can almost feel Katy Perry's eyes open wide as she sings, "I'm wide awake!" to open this song.
I'm wide awake
Yeah, I was in the dark
I was falling hard
With an open heart
I'm wide awake
How did I read the stars so wrong
I'm wide awake
And now it's clear to me
That everything you see
Ain't always what it seems
I'm wide awake
Yeah, I was dreaming for so long
(Pre-Chorus)
I wish I knew then
What I know now
Wouldn't dive in
Wouldn't bow down
Gravity hurts
You made it so sweet
Till I woke up on
On the concrete
(Chorus)
Falling from cloud 9
Crashing from the high
I'm letting go tonight
(Yeah I'm) Falling from cloud 9
I'm wide awake
Not losing any sleep
Picked up every piece
And landed on my feet
I'm wide awake
Need nothing to complete myself - no oh oh
I'm wide awake
Yeah, I am born again
Outta the lion's den
I don't have to pretend
And it's too late
The story's over now, the end - yeah
(Pre-Chorus)
I wish I knew then
What I know now
Wouldn't dive in
Wouldn't bow down
Gravity hurts
You made it so sweet
Till I woke up on
On the concrete
(Chorus)
Falling from cloud 9
Crashing from the high
I'm letting go tonight
(Yeah I'm) Falling from cloud 9
Thunder rumbling
Castles crumbling
I am trying to hold on
God knows that I tried
Seeing the bright side
But I'm not blind anymore...'cause I'm... wide awake
Repeat Chorus
This song marks Perry's eleventh entry to the top 10 of Billboard Hot 100, following all seven of the previous singles from her second album Teenage Dream and three out of four singles from her debut album One of the Boys. Please share this post on Google+ or Facebook if you like the song.

Hello April: Glad You Came
I can't believe that I had only one post last month. I'll try to publish more posts this April. Don't forget to share this post on Google+ if you like my pick today.
"Glad You Came" is a dance pop song by British boy band The Wanted, taken as the second single from their second studio album, Battleground.
The sun goes down
The stars come out
And all that counts
Is here and now
My universe will never be the same
I'm glad you came
You cast a spell on me, spell on me
You hit me like the sky fell on me, fell on me
And I decided you look well on me, well on me
So let's go somewhere no-one else can see, you and me
Turn the lights out now
Now I'll take you by the hand
Hand you another drink
Drink it if you can
Can you spend a little time,
Time is slipping away,
Away from us so stay,
Stay with me I can make,
Make you glad you came
The sun goes down
The stars come out
And all that counts
Is here and now
My universe will never be the same
I'm glad you came
I'm glad you came
You cast a spell on me, spell on me
You hit me like the sky fell on me, fell on me
And I decided you look well on me, well on me
So let's go somewhere no-one else can see, you and me
Turn the lights out now
Now I'll take you by the hand
Hand you another drink
Drink it if you can
Can you spend a little time,
Time is slipping away,
Away from us so stay,
Stay with me I can make,
Make you glad you came
Repeat Chorus

Hello March: Miley Cyrus - Party in the U.S.A
I don't usually like Miley Cyrus, but this song is my favorite. The song was originally intended for Jessie J, however, the producers passed the song on to Cyrus, believing it was not edgy enough for herself. Would it have been a hit if Jessie J had sung it? Feel free to post your answer on my Google + or Twitter profile.
I hopped off the plane at L.A.X.
With a dream and my cardigan
Welcome to the land of fame excess,
Am I gonna fit in?
Jumped in the cab,
Here I am for the first time
Look to my right and I see the Hollywood sign
This is all so crazy
Everybody seems so famous
My tummy's turnin' and I'm feelin' kinda home sick
Too much pressure and I'm nervous,
That's when the taxi man turned on the radio
And a Jay-Z song was on (x3)
[Chorus:]
So I put my hands up
They're playing my song,
And the butterflies fly away
I'm noddin' my head like yeah
I'm movin' my hips like yeah
I got my hands up,
They're playin' my song
I know I'm gonna be OK
Yeah, it's a party in the USA
Yeah, it's a party in the USA
Get to the club in my taxi cab
Everybody's looking at me now
Like "Who's that chick, that's rockin' kicks?
She gotta be from out of town"
So hard with my girls not around me
It's definitely not a Nashville party
'cause all I see are stilettos
I guess I never got the memo
My tummy's turnin' and I'm feelin' kinda home sick
Too much pressure and I'm nervous
That's when the D.J. dropped my favorite tune
and a Britney song was on (3 times)
Repeat Chorus
Feel like hoppin' on a flight (on a flight)
Back to my hometown tonight (town tonight)
Something stops me every time (every time)
The DJ plays my song and I feel alright
[Chorus x2]

Goodbye February: Outlaw
Outlaw is a track taken from the last album of Selena Gomez & the Scene "When The Sun Goes Down." Selena Gomez & the Scene break up earlier this month. Check out Selena Gomez 2012 news for more information.
"Outlaw"
[Verse 1:]
You've been riding this horse a long time
Why can't you find what you've been looking for?
Always greener on the other side
Always believing there must be something more
Never stay very long anywhere
As the next girl you leave gets smaller
In your rear-view mirror
[Chorus:]
You're an outlaw
You're an outlaw
You're an outlaw running from love
If you tear her world apart
You have no regrets
If there's a key to your heart
No one has found it yet
You've an outlaw
You've an outlaw
You've an outlaw
You've an outlaw running from love
[Verse 2:]
Your reputation's getting out of control
I can't believe she believes one word you said
Before I let you take my girlfriend home
I've got to warn her about the price on your head
It must feel so alone out there
Always running away from someone
But you get more nowhere
Repeat Chorus
If you tear her world apart
You have no regrets
If there's a key to your heart
No one has found it yet
You're an outlaw
You're an outlaw
You're an outlaw
You're an outlaw running from love
[Bridge:]
I'm from the Lone Star State
I'm ready to bring you in, oh
I'm gonna seal your fate
Make you pay for all your sins, oh, oh-oh
You've been riding this horse a long time
I've had my eye on you all night
I'm gonna find a way to make you mind
I know, even though
Repeat Chorus 2 times
If you tear her world apart
You have no regrets...
... stop running
Well, this is my last post of February. I hope March will be a lucky month for me.

Hey Stephen - Taylor Swift (album Fearless)
This is my second post featuring Taylor Swift's song. This time I pick another song from her very successful album Fearless which earned her Grammy Award for Album of The Year.
"Hey Stephen"
Hey Stephen, I know looks can be deceiving but I know I saw a light in you
As we walked we were talking and I didn't say half the things I wanted to
Of all the girls tossing rocks at your window
I'll be the one waiting there even when it's cold
Hey Stephen, boy you might have me believing I don't always have to be alone.
[Chorus:]
'cause I can't help it if you look like an angel
Can't help I if I wanna kiss you in the rain so
Come feel this magic I've been feeling since I met you
Can't help it if there's no one else
I can't help myself
Hey Stephen, I've been holding back this feeling
So I've got some things to say to you
I seen it all so I thought but I never seen nobody shine the way you do
The way you walk, way you talk, way you say my name
It's beautiful, wonderful, don't you ever change
Hey Stephen, why are people always leaving
I think you and I should stay the same
Repeat Chorus
They're dimming the street lights
You're perfect for me why aren't you here tonight?
I'm waiting alone now so come on and come out and pull me near
Shine, shine, shine
Hey Stephen I could give you fifty reasons why I should be the one you choose
All those other girls, well they're beautiful but would they write a song for you
[Chorus x2]
Myself, can't help myself
I can't help myself.
Enjoy this video.

Better That We Break - Maroon 5 (album It Won't Be Soon Before Long)
Simon Cowell is eager to up the stakes of his talent show empire by pitching the next winner of The X Factor against the champions of his former programme American Idol and newcomer The Voice. However Maroon 5 frontman Adam Levine, who is one of the coaches of the American version of The Voice, is not a fan of the idea. Adam Levine and girlfriend Anne Vyalitsyna dropped by "The Howard Stern Show" this week. The rocker found himself discussing a pretty touchy subject: Christina Aguilera's weight. Stern tried to bait Levine into saying something nasty about Aguilera’s weight, but Adam was wise to his game and side stepped the land mine successfully.
"Better That We Break"
I never knew perfection til
I heard you speak, and now it kills me
Just to hear you say the simple things
Now waking up is hard to do
And sleeping is impossible too
Everything is reminding me of you
What can I do?
It’s not right, not OK
Say the words that you say
Maybe we’re better off this way?
I’m not fine, I’m in pain
It’s harder everyday
Maybe we’re better off this way?
It’s better that we break…
A fool to let you slip away
I chase you just to hear you say
You’re scared and that you think that I’m insane
The city look so nice from here
Pity I can’t see it clearly
While you’re standing there, it disappears
It disappears
It’s not right, not OK
Say the word it should say
Maybe we’re better off this way?
I’m not fine, I’m in pain
It’s harder everyday
Maybe we’re better off this way?
It’s better that we break
Saw you sitting all alone
You’re fragile and you’re cold, but that’s all right
Life these days is getting rough
They’ve knocked you down and beat you up
But it’s just a rollercoaster anyway, yeah
It’s not right, not OK
Say the words that you say
Maybe we’re better off this way?
I’m not fine, I’m in pain
It’s harder everyday
Maybe we’re better off this way?
I’m not fine, not OK
Say the words that you say
Maybe we’re better off this way?
I’m not fine, I’m in pain
It’s harder everyday
Maybe we’re better off this way?
It’s better that we break, baby
Here's another great video for you.

Stuck In The Moment - Justin Bieber (album My World 2.0)
Canadian singer Justin Bieber plans to look for revenge for his lost at this year’s Grammy by dominating the prestigious awards show when it returns next year. The empress of glitter and unicorns, Kesha, is giving him a helping hand on his new album Believe. While waiting for Kesha's collaboration with Justin Bieber, let's learn how to sing another song from his second album "My World 2.0" entitled Stuck In The Moment.
(With you, with you
I wish we had another time,
I wish we had another place.)
Now Romeo and Juliet,
Bet they never felt the way we felt.
Bonnie and Clyde,
Never had to hide like we do, we do.
You and I both know it can't work,
It's all fun and games,
'til someone gets hurt,
And I know I wont let that be you
Now you don't wanna let go,
And I don't wanna let you know
That there might be something real between us two (who knew?)
Now we don't wanna fall but,
We're tripping in our hearts and,
It's reckless and clumsy,
Cause I know you cant love me, hey
I wish we had another time,
I wish we had another place,
But everything we have is stuck in the moment,
And there's nothing my heart can't do,
To fight with time and space,
Cause I'm still stuck in the moment with you
See like Adam and Eve,
Tragedy was our destiny,
Like Sonny and Cher,
I don't care I've got you baby.
See we both fighting every inch of our fiber,
Cause either way its gonna end right but,
We are both too foolish to stop.
Repeat Chorus
See like just because this cold, cruel world
Saying we can't be,
Baby, we both have the right to disagree,
And I ain't with it.
And I don't wanna be so old and gray,
Reminiscing about these better days,
But convention's telling us to let go
And I still let go,
So we'll never know
I wish we had another time,
I wish we had another place,
Cause everything we did,
And everything we have is stuck in the moment
(Yeah oh no no no)
I wish we had another time,
I wish we had another place,
But everything we have is stuck in the moment,
And there's nothing my heart can't do,
To fight with time and space,
Cause I'm still stuck in the moment with you
Let's sing the song with this great video.

R.I.P Whitney Houston: The Greatest Love of All
This is another successful cover recorded by Whitney Houston and it remains one of her biggest US hit. The song was written by Michael Masser and Linda Creed and initially recorded by Jane Olivor and then again by George Benson. Whitney was found dead in the bathtub in her hotel room at the Beverly Hilton Hotel hours before she was supposed to appear at a pre-Grammy gala. Her cause of death is still unknown.
I believe the children are our future
Teach them well and let them lead the way
Show them all the beauty they possess inside
Give them a sense of pride to make it easier
Let the children's laughter remind us how we used to be
Everybody's searching for a hero
People need someone to look up to
I never found anyone who fulfilled my needs
A lonely place to be
So I learned to depend on me
Chorus
I decided long ago, never to walk in anyone's shadows
If I fail, if I succeed
At least I'll live as I believe
No matter what they take from me
They can't take away my dignity
Because the greatest love of all
Is happening to me
I found the greatest love of all
Inside of me
The greatest love of all
Is easy to achieve
Learning to love yourself
It is the greatest love of all
I believe the children are our future
Teach them well and let them lead the way
Show them all the beauty they possess inside
Give them a sense of pride to make it easier
Let the children's laughter remind us how we used to be
Repeat Chorus
And if, by chance, that special place
That you've been dreaming of
Leads you to a lonely place
Find your strength in love
I'll post more Whitney Houston's songs next hours.

Remembering Whitney Houston: It's Not Right but It's Okay
This song is great. I like its rhythm. It's hard to find a good R&B song like "It's not right, but it's OK" these days.
Friday night you and your boys went out to eat
Then they hung out,but you came home around three
Now if six of ya'll went out
Then four of you were really cheap
'Cause only two of you had dinner
I found your credit card receipt
It's not right but it's okay
I'm gonna make it anyway
Pack your bags up and leave
And don't you dare come
Running back to me
It's not right but it's okay
I'm gonna make it anyway
Close the door behind you
Leave your key
I'd rather be alone than unhappy
I pack your bags so you can leave town for a week
The phone rings and then you look at me
(Why'd you turn and look at me)
You said it was one of your friends
Down on 54th Street
So why did 213 show up on your caller ID
I've been through all this before
So how could you think
That I would stand around
And take some more
Things are gonna change
'Cause I won't be your fool anymore
That's why you have to leave
So don't turn around to see my face
There's no more tears
Left here for you to see
Was it really worth you going out like that
See I'm moving on and I refuse to turn back
See all of this time I thought I had somebody
down for Whitney
It turns out you were making a fool of me
It's not right but it's okay
I'm gonna make it anyway
Pack your bags up and leave
And don't you dare come
Running back to me
It's not right,but it's okay
I'm gonna make it anyway
Close the door behind you
Leave your key
I'd rather be alone than unhappy
Let's sing along with this video. It's remix. Yeah, it's not right, but it's OK.

Don't Ask Why - Vanessa Hudgens (album Identified)
Vanessa Hudgens is busy promoting her latest movie "Journey 2: The Mysterious Island" so I think she doesn't have time for her singing career now. Her new movie is one of the most fun family movies I have seen in a while. Now it's time for our song of the day.
"Don't Ask Why"
I remember the day I first met you
You really caught my attention
Didn't know I was looking for a rescue
Wasn't thinking that hard
Now and then I was there in the moment
I was ready for nothing
Doesn't mean that I really don't love you
While I'm breaking your heart
Don't ask why
Before we get too close just let me
Say goodbye
It's easier this way
Don't ask why
Before you ask the question and I
Die Inside
Just let me walk away
I feel bad that I let my past hurt you
Cause I really didn't mean to
I was lost, I was lucky you found me
But it only got worse
Right now while you're looking right at me
The emotion's so scary
Doesn't mean that I really don't love you
While I'm making you hurt
Repeat Chorus
I know I want this more than ever
I wish there was another way
You see my words can only hurt you
'Till his shadow fades away!
Away
Oh
Chorus x 2
This song is a track from Vanessa Hudgens' second studio album Identified.

Overboard - Justin Bieber (album My World 2.0)
Overboard, featuring Jessica Jarrell, is a track from Justin Bieber's first full studio release. The Canadian pop star is recording for his new album, "Believe," expected to be released in the late spring. Fellow Canadian and Take Care rapper Drake has been tapped to appear on the album.
"Overboard"
(feat. Jessica Jarrell)
[Jessica Jarrell:]
It feels like we've been out at sea,
Oh, so back and forth that's how it seems,
And when I wanna talk you say to me,
That if it's meant to be it will be.
Whoa-oh-oh
So crazy is this thing we call love,
And now that we've got it we just can't give up
I'm reaching out for you,
Get me out here in the water and I,
[Justin Bieber:]
I'm overboard
And I need your love to pull me up
I can't swim on my own
It's too much
Feel like I'm drowning without your love,
So throw yourself out to me my lifesaver.
Life saver, oh life saver
My life saver
Life saver, oh life saver
Whoa.
Never understood you when you'd say,
Oh, wanted me to meet you halfway,
Oh, felt like I was doing my part,
You kept thinking you were coming up short
It's funny how things change cause now I see.
Ohh, so crazy is this thing we call love,
And now that we've got it we just can't give up
I'm reaching out for you,
Got me out here in the water and I,
I'm overboard
And I need your love to pull me up
I can't swim on my own
It's too much
Feel like I'm drowning without your love,
So throw yourself out to me my lifesaver.
Oh, t's supposed to be some give and take I know,
But you're only taking and not giving anymore,
So what will I do?
Cause I still love you (still love you baby),
And you're the only one who can save me.
Repeat Chorus

Never Let You Go - Justin Bieber (album My World 2.0)
Led by No. 1 hit "Baby", "Never let you go" was predicted to crack the Top 5 Billboard chart in its opening week. However, it failed to enter the top 20 of the Billboard Hot 100. I think this song is not bad. This is my first Justin Bieber February 2012 post and I promise there will be more Bieber entries this month.
"Never Let You Go"
Oh, no,
oh, no, oh
They say that hate has been sent
So let loose the talk of love (of love, of love)
Before they outlaw the kiss
Baby, give me one last hug
There's a dream that I've been chasing
Want so badly for it to be reality.
And when you hold my hand
And I understand that it's meant to be.
'cause baby when you're with me...
[Chorus:]
It's like an angel came by and took me to heaven (came by and took me to heaven)
'cause when i stare in your eyes it couldn't be better (I don't want you to go, oh no, so)
Let the music blast
We gonna do our dance
Bring the doubters on
They don't matter at all
'cause this life's too long
And this love's too strong
So baby know for sure
That I'll never let you go
I got my favorite girl
Not feelin', no pain, no fear
Don't have a care in the world
Why would I when you are here?
There's a moment I've been chasing
And I finally caught it out on this floor.
Baby, there's no hesitation, no reservation
By taking a chance and more, oh no, because...
Repeat Chorus
Take my hand
Let's just dance
Watch my feet
Follow me
Don't be scared,
Girl I'm here
If you didn't know,
This is love
Let the music blast
We gonna do our dance
Praise the doubters on
They don't matter at all (oh, baby)
'cause this life's too long
And this love's too strong
So baby know for sure
That I'll never let you go
So don't fear.
Don't you worry about a thing.
I am here, by you (I'll never let you go)
Don't shed a tear.
Whenever you need me,
I'll be here (I'll never let you go)

I Will Not Say Goodbye - Danny Gokey (album My Best Days)
In my opinion, "I Will Not Say Goodbye" is the best song from Danny Gokey's debut album. It was selected as the second single from the album. It's a pity that the song failed to chart as highly as had been expected. Let's hope that there will be a new album after Danny Gokey wedding as the American Idol finalist now has a new muse.
"I Will Not Say Goodbye"
Sometimes your world just ends
It changes everything you've been
And all that's left to be
Is empty, broken, lonely, hoping
I'm supposed to be strong
I'm supposed to find a way to carry on
And I don't wanna feel better
And I don't wanna not remember,
I will always see your face
In the shadows of this haunted place
I will laugh, I will cry, shake my fist at the sky
But I will not say goodbye
They keep saying time will heal
But the pain just gets more real
The sun comes up each day
Finds me waiting, fading, hating, praying,
If I can keep on holding on
Maybe I can keep my heart from knowing that you're gone
And I don't wanna feel better
I don't wanna not remember
I will always see your face
In the shadows of this haunted place
I will laugh, I will cry, shake my fist at the sky
But I will not say goodbye
I will curse, I will pray, I will re-live everyday
I will show through the blame
I'll shout out your name
I will laugh, I will cry, shake my fist at the sky
But I will not say
Will not say goodbye
I will not say goodbye
This nice video will help you learn to sing this song easily.

She Ain't You - Chris Brown (album F.A.M.E.)
I know this song is actually a cover of Michael Jackson's hit Human Nature, but I still love it. In my opinion, this is one of the best tracks from his fourth album. I wonder if the song is about Chris Brown's girlfriend Karrueche Tran and Rihanna.
"She Ain't You"
[Verse:]
You make It hard for me to see somebody else
I'm calling her your name
Yea its messed up, cause I'm thinkin 'bout you
It's your fault babe
I never wanted us to break up
No not this way
But you don't understand it girl
When she touches me, I'm wishing that they were your hands
And when I'm with her its only 'bout the sex
With you I had a bad romance
And if I could, just trade her in I would
Cause nobody compares to ya
[Chorus:]
I think I better let her go
Cause I can't leave you alone
Every day that I'm with her, all I want is you
I wanna leave but I'm afraid
That you don't even feel the same
And now I realize that she ain't you
Oh (no she ain't you)
Whoa oh oh (Na na na)
Whoa oh oh (Na na na)
She ain't, no she ain't you
[Verse:]
I've been sleeping out
For quite some nights now
It's not the same in my bed
But if she found out what's going on in my head
It'll be all bad, have me right back
But you don't understand it girl
When she touches me, I'm wishing that they were your hands
And when I'm with her its only 'bout the sex
With you I had a bad romance
And if I could, just trade her in I would
Cause nobody compares to ya
(Chorus x 2)
Chris Brown performed this song live at the BET Awards last year, but I miss the show. It's sad that I still can't find the video of his performance.

Set Fire To The Rain - Adele (album 21)
I've just found out that Adele used to listen to Spice Girls as she was a kid. Me too. It's hard to believe it because Spice Girls' music is totally different from Adele's. Since I found one common between Adele and me, I've decided to pick her new song for this post. The singer is reportedly dating Simon Konecki and she is very happy with her new love.
"Set Fire To The Rain"
I let it fall, my heart,
And as it fell you rose to claim it
It was dark and I was over
Until you kissed my lips and you saved me
My hands, they're strong
But my knees were far too weak
To stand in your arms
Without falling to your feet
But there's a side to you
That I never knew, never knew.
All the things you'd say
They were never true, never true,
And the games you play
You would always win, always win.
[Chorus:]
But I set fire to the rain,
Watched it pour as I touched your face,
Well, it burned while I cried
'Cause I heard it screaming out your name, your name!
When I lay with you
I could stay there
Close my eyes
Feel you here forever
You and me together
Nothing is better
'Cause there's a side to you
That I never knew, never knew,
All the things you'd say,
They were never true, never true,
And the games you play
You would always win, always win.
[Chorus:]
But I set fire to the rain,
Watched it pour as I touched your face,
Well, it burned while I cried
'Cause I heard it screaming out your name, your name!
I set fire to the rain
And I threw us into the flames
Where I felt something die
'Cause I knew that there was the last time, the last time!
Sometimes I wake up by the door,
That heart you caught must be waiting for you
Even now when we're already over
I can't help myself from looking for you.
Repeat Chorus

This song has already peaked at 4 on the Billboard Hot 100. Will it conquer the chart?

You've Got a Friend
It's easy to understand why many artist have covered this song. It has great melody and very meaningful lyrics. It is also selected by many X Factor contestants. In 2009, "You've Got a Friend" was performed collectively by the finalists of Season 2 of Danish X Factor. Kerry McGregor, who broke her back when she was 13, performed the song in a wheelchair in the X Factor audition stages in 2006.
You've Got a Friend
When you're down in troubles
And you need some love and care
And nothing, nothing is going right
Close your eyes and think of me
And soon i will be there
To brighten up even your darkest night
You just call out my name
And you know wherever I am
I'll come running to see you again
Winter, spring, summer or fall
All you got to do is call
And I'll be there
Yes I will
You've got a friend
If the sky above you
Grows dark and full of clouds
And that old north wind begins to blow
Keep your head together
And call my name out loud
Soon you'll hear me knocking at your door
You just call out my name
And you know wherever I am
I'll come running to see you again
Winter, spring, summer or fall
All you have to do is call
And I'll be there
Ain't it good to know that you've got a friend
When people can be so cold
They'll hurt you and desert you
And take your soul if you let them
Oh, but don't you let them
Repeat Chorus
"You've Got a Friend" won Grammy Awards both for James Taylor who covered the song the same year and Carole King who wrote the song and performed it first.
You've Got a Friend

You Sang to Me - Marc Anthony
I know this song is old, but it is the only Marc Anthony's song which is my favorite. I never like this man. I hate him because he is a promiscuous man. I've heard that the singer is dating Shannon De Lima and he didn't hide it.
You Sang To Me
Oh
I just wanted you to comfort me
When I called you late last night you see
I was falling into love
Yes, I was crashing into love
Oh of all the words you sang to me
About life, the truth and being free, yeah
You sang to me, oh how you sang to me
Girl, I live off how you make me feel
So I question all this being real
'Cause I'm not afraid to love
For the first time I'm not afraid of love
Oh, this day seems made for you and me
And you showed me what life needs to be
Yeah, you sang to me, oh you sang to me
All the while you were in front of me I never realized
I just can't believe I didn't see it in your eyes
I didn't see it, I can't believe it
Oh but I feel it
When you sing to me
How I long to hear you sing beneath the clear blue skies
And I promise you this time I'll see it in your eyes
I didn't see it, I can't believe it
Oh but I feel it
When you sing to me
Just to think you live inside of me
I had no idea how this could be
Now I'm crazy for your love
Can't believe I'm crazy for your love
The words you said you sang to me
And you showed me where I wanna be
Yeah you sang to me, oh you sang to me
All the while you were in front of me I never realized
I just can't believe I didn't see it in your eyes
I didn't see it, I can't believe it
Oh but I feel it
When you sing to me
How I long to hear you sing beneath the clear blue skies
And I promise you this time I'll see it in your eyes
I didn't see it, I can't believe it
Oh but I feel it
When you sing to me
Repeat Chorus
This song is the third single of Marc Anthony's first English language album and he also recorded a Spanish version of it.
You Sang To Me
Oh
I just wanted you to comfort me
When I called you late last night you see

Yes, I was crashing into love
Oh of all the words you sang to me
About life, the truth and being free, yeah
You sang to me, oh how you sang to me
Girl, I live off how you make me feel
So I question all this being real
'Cause I'm not afraid to love
For the first time I'm not afraid of love
Oh, this day seems made for you and me
And you showed me what life needs to be
Yeah, you sang to me, oh you sang to me
All the while you were in front of me I never realized
I just can't believe I didn't see it in your eyes
I didn't see it, I can't believe it
Oh but I feel it
When you sing to me
How I long to hear you sing beneath the clear blue skies
And I promise you this time I'll see it in your eyes
I didn't see it, I can't believe it
Oh but I feel it
When you sing to me
Just to think you live inside of me
I had no idea how this could be
Now I'm crazy for your love
Can't believe I'm crazy for your love
The words you said you sang to me
And you showed me where I wanna be
Yeah you sang to me, oh you sang to me
All the while you were in front of me I never realized
I just can't believe I didn't see it in your eyes
I didn't see it, I can't believe it
Oh but I feel it
When you sing to me
How I long to hear you sing beneath the clear blue skies
And I promise you this time I'll see it in your eyes
I didn't see it, I can't believe it
Oh but I feel it
When you sing to me
Repeat Chorus
This song is the third single of Marc Anthony's first English language album and he also recorded a Spanish version of it.
