Текст песни:

Well you can stand there waiting for a rainy day
Close up your heart and hide your dancing shoes away
And cut yourself with your mistakes
Leave all hope lying in a line of chalk
Everything you need is disguised in double talk
So wound yourself and let it ache

But if you′re waiting for something to bring you round

[Chorus]
I′m calling out, I′m calling out your name
Lift your head up high
I′m calling out, I′m calling out your name
Lift your head up high

It′s all little pieces till there′s nothing left
All just debris of your former self
Just take a breath for your own sake
And if you′re waiting for something to bring you round

[Chorus]

And are you caught between the lines
Did no one see you fall behind

[Chorus]

Текст песни:

There are children standing here,
Arms outstretched into the sky,
Tears drying on their face.
He has been here.
Brothers lie in shallow graves.
Fathers lost without a trace.
A nation blind to their disgrace,
Since he′s been here.

And I see no bravery,
No bravery in your eyes anymore.
Only sadness.

Houses burnt beyond repair.
The smell of death is in the air.
A woman weeping in despair says,
He has been here.
Tracer lighting up the sky.
It′s another families′ turn to die.
A child afraid to even cry out says,
He has been here.

And I see no bravery,
No bravery in your eyes anymore.
Only sadness.

There are children standing here,
Arms outstretched into the sky,
But no one asks the question why,
He has been here.
Old men kneel to accept their fate.
Wives and daughters cut and raped.
A generation drenched in hate.
Says, he has been here.

And I see no bravery,
No bravery in your eyes anymore.
Only sadness.

@ James Blunt

Текст песни:

The trouble is her only friend and he′s back again.
Makes her body older, than it really is.
And she says it′s high time she went away,
No one′s got much to say in this town.
The trouble is the only way is down,
Down, down.

As strong as you were, tender you go.
I′m watching you′re breathing for the last time.
A song for your heart, but when it is quiet,
I know what it means and I′ll carry you home.
I′ll carry you home.

If she had wings, she would fly away
And another day God will give her some...
The trouble is the only way is down,
Down, down.

As strong as you were, tender you go.
I′m watching you′re breathing for the last time.
A song for your heart, but when it is quiet,
I know what it means and I′ll carry you home.
I′ll carry you home.

And they were all born pretty in New York City in light,
And someone′s little girl was taken from the world tonight,

Under the Stars and Stripes.

As strong as you were, tender you go.
I′m watching you′re breathing for the last time.
A song for your heart, but when it is quiet
I know what it means and I′ll carry you home

As strong as you were, tender you go.
I′m watching you′re breathing for the last time.
A song for your heart, but when it is quiet,
I know what it means and I′ll carry you home.

I′ll carry you home...

Текст песни:

One day your story will be told.
One of the lucky ones who′s made his name.
One day they′ll make you glorious,
Beneath the lights of your deserved fame.
And it all comes round.
Once in a lifetime like it always does.
Everybody loves you ′cause you′ve taken a chance,
Out on a dance to the moon, too soon.
And they′ll say told you so.
We were the ones who saw you first of all.
We always knew that you were one of the brightest stars.
One day they′ll tell you that you′ve changed,
Though they′re the ones who seem to stop and stare.
One day you′ll hope to make the grave,
Before the papers choose to send you there.
And it all comes round.
Once in a lifetime like it always does.
Nobody loves you ′cause you′ve taken a chance,
Out on a dance to the moon, too soon.
And they′ll say told you so.
We were the ones who saw you first of all.
We always knew that you were one of the brightest stars.
And they′ll say told you so.
We were the ones who saw you first of all.
We always knew that you were one of the brightest

@ James Blunt

Текст песни:

I have seen peace, I have seen pain,
Resting on the shoulders of your name.
Do you see the truth through all their lies?
Do you see the world through troubled eyes?

And if you want to... talk about it anymore,
Lie here on the floor and cry... on my shoulder,
I′m a friend.

I have seen birth, I have seen death.
Lived to see a lover′s final breath.
Do you see my guilt? Should I feel fright?
Is the fire of hesitation burning bright?

And if you want to... talk about it once again,
On you I depend. I′ll cry... on your shoulder,
You′re a friend.

You and I have lived through many things.
I′ll hold on to your heart.
I wouldn′t cry for anything,
But don′t go tearing your life apart...

I have seen fear, I have seen faith.
Seen the look of anger on your face.

And if you want to... talk about what will be,
Come and sit with me,
And cry... on my shoulder,
I′m a friend...

And if you want to... talk about it anymore,
Lie here on the floor...

Cry... on my shoulder,
Once again...
Cry... on my shoulder,
I′m a friend...

@ James Blunt

Текст песни:

Judging by the look on the organ-grinder,
He′ll judge me by the fact that my face don′t fit.
It′s touching that the monkey sits on my shoulder.
He′s waiting for the day when he gets me,
But I don′t need no alibi - I′m a puppet on a string.
I just need this stage to be seen.
We all need a pantomime to remind us what is real.
Hold my eye and know what it means.

I′m out of my mind.

Judging by the look on the organ-grinder,
He′ll judge me by the fact that my face don′t fit.
It′s touching that the monkey sits on my shoulder.
He′s waiting for the day when he gets me,
But I won′t be your concubine - I′m a puppet not a whore.
I just need this stage to be seen.
Will you be a friend of mine to remind me what is real?
Hold my heart and see that it bleeds.

I′m out of my mind.

@ James Blunt

Текст песни:

Did he break your heart today?
Well, some will say
It′s never gonna be easy
And did he tell you that he loved you,
He′s just not in love with you anymore?

I met a man who saw a ghost
Sat down on his bed and he said
"Hey, there′s no need to worry,
I′ve lived my life from start to end
And I′ve seen nothing that makes sense
Except being in love."

So, dear, dear Katie
What have you done lately?
I′ve heard it′s all gone wrong.
So, dear, dear Katie
This mess you′re in is crazy
Remember real love.

Take tea for two
An afternoon
By the sea
Remember how it used to be
When we were young and we didn′t care
And oh people used to smile
We were holding hands in the park
The simple things men and woman share,
They used to make you smile.
Little girl don′t be lonely,
You′ll never be lonely

So dear, dear Katie
What have you done lately?
I′ve heard it′s all gone wrong.
So dear, dear Katie
This mess you′re in is crazy.
Remember real love.

And did he break your heart today
Well, do you still feel?

@ James Blunt

Текст песни:

Saw the world turning in my sheets and once again I cannot sleep.
Walk out the door and up the street; look at the stars beneath my feet.
Remember rights that I did wrong, so here I go.
Hello, hello. There is no place I cannot go.
My mind is muddy but my heart is heavy. Does it show?
I lose the track that loses me, so here I go.
And so I sent some men to fight, and one came back at dead of night.
Said he′d seen my enemy. Said he looked just like me,
So I set out to cut myself and here I go.
I′m not calling for a second chance,
I′m screaming at the top of my voice.
Give me reason but don′t give me choice.
′Cause I′ll just make the same mistake again.
And maybe someday we will meet, and maybe talk and not just speak.
Don′t buy the promises ′cause, there are no promises I keep.
And my reflection troubles me, so here I go.
I′m not calling for a second chance,
I′m screaming at the top of my voice.
Give me reason but don′t give me choice.
′Cause I′ll just make the same mistake,
I′m not calling for a second chance,
I′m screaming at the top of my voice.
Give me reason but don′t give me choice.
′Cause I′ll just make the same mistake again.
Saw the world turning in my sheets and once again I cannot sleep.
Walk out the door and up the street; look at the stars.
Look at the stars fall down.
And wonder where did I go wrong.

@ James Blunt

Текст песни:

Me and my guitar play my way. It makes them frown.
But little pieces by the highway bring me down.
Mine is not a heart of stone, I am only skin and bone,
And those little pieces are little pieces of my own.

Why don′t you give me some love?
I′ve taken ship-load of drugs.
I′m so tired of never fixing the pain.
Valium said to me,
I′ll take you seriously,
And we′ll come back as someone else,
Who′s better than yourself.

Many faces at the doorway all hang round.
Watch me fighting in the hallway but make no sound.
So I′m standing all alone, and I′m only skin and bone.
So many faces but they all look out for their own.

Why don′t you give me some love?
I′ve taken ship-load of drugs.
I′m so tired of never fixing the pain.
Valium said to me,
I′ll take you seriously,
And we′ll come back as someone else,
Who′s better than yourself.

And some day soon they′ll drop the bomb and let it all out. Someday.
I know that someday soon we′ll all be gone so let it all out.
Let it all out today.
And give me some love,
Yeah, give me some love,
Come on, give me some love today.

@ James Blunt

Текст песни:

Are they calling for our last dance?
I see it in your eyes. In your eyes.
Same old moves for a new romance.
I could use the same old lies, but I′ll sing,
Shine on, just, shine on!
Close your eyes and they′ll all be gone.
They can scream and shout that they′ve been sold out,
But it paid for the cloud that we′re dancing on.
So shine on. Just shine on!
With your smile just as bright as the sun.
′Cause they′re all just slaves to the gods they made
But you and I just shone.
Just shone.
And when silence greets my last goodbye,
The words I need are in your eyes, and I′ll sing.
Shine On, just, shine on!
Close your eyes and they′ll all be gone.
They can scream and shout that they′ve been sold out,
But it paid for the cloud that we′re dancing on.
So shine on. Just shine on!
With your smile just as bright as the sun.
′Cause they′re all just slaves to the gods they made,
But you and I just shone.
Just shone.

@ James Blunt

Текст песни:

Did I disappoint you or let you down?
Should I be feeling guilty or let the judges frown?
′Cause I saw the end before we′d begun,
Yes I saw you were blinded and I knew I had won.
So I took what′s mine by eternal right.
Took your soul out into the night.
It may be over but it won′t stop there,
I am here for you if you′d only care.
You touched my heart you touched my soul.
You changed my life and all my goals.
And love is blind and that I knew when,
My heart was blinded by you.
I′ve kissed your lips and held your head.
Shared your dreams and shared your bed.
I know you well, I know your smell.
I′ve been addicted to you.

Goodbye my lover.
Goodbye my friend.
You have been the one.
You have been the one for me.(x2)

I am a dreamer but when I wake,
You can′t break my spirit - it′s my dreams you take.
And as you move on, remember me,
Remember us and all we used to be
I′ve seen you cry, I′ve seen you smile.
I′ve watched you sleeping for a while.
I′d be the father of your child.
I′d spend a lifetime with you.
I know your fears and you know mine.
We′ve had our doubts but now we′re fine,
And I love you, I swear that′s true.
I cannot live without you.

Goodbye my lover.
Goodbye my friend.
You have been the one.
You have been the one for me.(x2)

And I still hold your hand in mine.
In mine when I′m asleep.
And I will bear my soul in time,
When I′m kneeling at your feet.

Goodbye my lover.
Goodbye my friend.
You have been the one.
You have been the one for me.(x2)

I′m so hollow, baby, I′m so hollow.
I′m so, I′m so, I′m so hollow.(x2)

@ James Blunt

Текст песни:

Tell me the wars you′re fighting
Behind the smile you′re hiding
All the things I know you want to say

We tried our best to find us
But there are no lights to guide us
I can′t sleep beside a stranger now

Piece by piece we fall apart
With every beat slows down my heart

[Chorus]
So I′ll just say what you won′t say
and I′ll take the blame if it is for your sake
No turning back on what you can′t save

So far gone
Yeah, we′re so far gone

I′ve tried hard to remember
This prison cell used to be a shelter
Now we′re just looking for the best way out
I can′t fight you anymore
You′re already one foot out the door

[Chorus]
So I′ll just say what you won′t say
and I′ll take the blame if it is for your sake
No turning back on what you can′t save

So far gone,
yeah we′re so far gone

And this is the face of letting go
And these are things we already know

So I′ll say what you won′t say
and I′ll take the blame if it is for your sake
No turning back on what you can′t save

so far gone
we′re so far gone

So I′ll say what you won′t say
and I′ll take the blame if it is for your sake
No turning back on what you can′t save

So far gone,
yes we′re so far gone
yes we′re so far gone
So I′ll just what you won′t say

@ James Blunt

Текст песни:

You have seen the singer
And he said ′ believe in me′
Now let me wash my bloodied hands
In this pool of extasy

Cos you know what′s required of us
And you know that they′re tired of us
And you know
That they haven′t got the clarity to have an open mind

So close your eyes (close your eyes)
close your eyes (close your eyes)
close your eyes (close Your of eyes)
and believe in me

You have seen the singer
And he said believe in me
Now open up and let me in
To your childhood fantasy

Cos you know that the time is right
And you know that we′re dynamites
And you know
That your dreams can be reality if you just made up your mind

So close your eyes (close your eyes)
close your eyes (close your eyes)
close your eyes (close Your of eyes)
and believe in me

And you know that the time is right
And you know that we′re dynamites
And you know that your dreams can be reality if you just made up your mind

So close your eyes (close your eyes)
close Your of eyes (close your eyes)
close your eyes (close your eyes)
And believe in me

(Yeah)

Close your eyes (close your eyes)
Close your eyes (close your eyes)
Close your eyes (close your eyes)
And believe in me.

And believe in me.

Текст песни:

This time her mind is made up
Yeah, she′s moving on
Tonight her spirit′s crushed
It′s ′cause she don′t belong

Maybe she thinks too much
She thinks she′s given enough
Only now they′ll know she′s got a heart of gold
Always looking for love
She′s beginning to think she′s cursed
On her looks she judged
By the folks at work

She don′t care for fashion and fame
Those kind of people they are all the same
One day they′ll know, she′s got a heart of gold

And she sings, I want to know what love is
But it seems to come with so much pain
If no one wants to show me
It seems easier just to run away
When I am gone it′s just a penny for my soul

But God he knows, I got a heart of gold
Been coming ′round here
Since she′s a little girl
But now the change is clear
We live in a cynical world

She don′t care for fashion and fame, no
Those kind of people they are all the same
They don′t wanna know, she′s got a heart of gold

And she sings, I want to know what love is
But it seems to come with so much pain
If no one wants to show me
It seems easier just to run away
When I am gone it′s just a penny for my soul
But God he knows, I got a heart of gold

To see her footsteps in the snow

And she sings, I want to know what love is
But it seems to come with so much pain
If no one wants to show me
It seems easier just to run away
When I am gone it′s just a penny for my soul
But God he knows, I got a heart of gold

@ James Blunt

Текст песни:

I just can′t believe that it′s over.
We were chilling out on the sofa,
Digging how the guitar goes,
In a song that no one knows.
Did you lick that line yourself,
Or did the voodoo magic help?
Does everyone have a different take?
Do you seem real but I seem fake?
Does everyone get hypnotized by your fire?

So long, Jimmy, so long.
Though you only stayed a moment,
We all know that you′re the one. Singing,
So long, Jimmy, so long.
Sure we′re glad for the experience,
We miss you now you′ve gone.
We′re just swimming in your soul ′cause,
We all wish we wrote this song.
Life goes on.

I′m just so relieved that it′s over.
We were hanging out going nowhere,
Digging how the guitar goes,
In a song that no one knows.
Did you burn that bridge yourself,
Or did the voodoo magic help?
Does everyone have a different take?
Are you just cool and I′m just baked?
Does everyone get mesmerized by your fire?

So long, Jimmy, so long.
Though you only stayed a moment,
We all know that you′re the one. Singing,
So long, Jimmy, so long.
Sure we′re glad for the experience,
We miss you now you′ve gone.
We′re just swimming in your soul ′cause,
We all wish we wrote this song.
Life goes on.

Текст песни:

I′ll be standing in the corner
Just watching her slaughter them
See you all go wild
I′ve been dipping in my finger
Testing out the water
See you on the other side

[Chorus]
She is dangerous, she is dangerous, I′m sure (woah)
And she′s all dressed up and knocking at my door (woah)
She is dangerous, she is dangerous, I know (woah)
But she′s got my heart and she′s never letting go

I′ll be hanging on your heartache
Enough rope for my sake and losing everytime
I′ll be wrapped around your finger, let the moment linger
See you on the other side

[Chorus]

And we all get a taste for blood tonight
Coz we′ve all had a taste of love
And we all get a taste for blood tonight
For love

[Chorus]
