Текст песни:

Far
We′ve been traveling far
Without a home
But not without a star

Free
Only want to be free
We huddle close
Hang on to a dream

On the boats and on the planes
They′re coming to America
Never looking back again
They′re coming to America

Home, don′t it seem so far away
Oh, we′re traveling light today
In the eye of the storm
In the eye of the storm

Home, to a new and a shiny place
Make our bed, and we′ll say our grace
Freedom′s light burning warm
Freedom′s light burning warm

Everywhere around the world
They′re coming to America
Every time that flag′s unfurled
They′re coming to America

Got a dream to take them there
They′re coming to America
Got a dream they′ve come to share
They′re coming to America

They′re coming to America
They′re coming to America
They′re coming to America
They′re coming to America
Today, today, today, today, today

My country ′tis of thee
Today
Sweet land of liberty
Today
Of thee I sing
Today
Of thee I sing
Today

Текст песни:

In every heart there is a room
A sanctuary safe and strong
To heal the wounds from lovers past
Until a new one comes along

I spoke to you in cautious tones
You answered me with no pretense
And still I feel I said too much
My silence is my self defense

And every time I′ve held a rose
It seems I only felt the thorns
And so it goes, and so it goes
And so will you soon I suppose

But if my silence made you leave
Then that would be my worst mistake
So I will share this room with you
And you can have this heart to break

And this is why my eyes are closed
It′s just as well for all I′ve seen
And so it goes, and so it goes
And you′re the only one who knows

So I would choose to be with you
That′s if the choice were mine to make
But you can make decisions too
And you can have this heart to break

And so it goes, and so it goes
And you′re the only one who knows

@ David Archuleta

Текст песни:

I sit and wait
Does an angel contemplate my fate ?
And do they know
The places where we go
When we′re grey and old ?
′Cos I′ve been told
That salvation lets their wings unfold
So when I′m lying in my bed
Thoughts running through my head
And I feel that love is dead
I′m loving angels instead

CHORUS:
And through it all she offers me protection
A lot of love and affection
Whether I′m right or wrong
And down the waterfall
Wherever it may take me
I know that life won′t break me
When I come to call
She won′t forsake me
I′m loving angels instead

When I′m feeling weak
And my pain walks down a one way street
I look above
And I know I′ll always be blessed with love
And as the feeling grows
She breathes flesh to my bones
And when love is dead
I′m loving angels instead

Chorus x 2

Текст песни:

Dancing in the alleyway,
Waiting for someone to say,
Come and dance with me
Rains a little everyday,
Keeps a smile on my face,
But I hurt inside...

I′ve gone crazy...
Please forgive me...
I′ve gone crazy,
I′m so sorry...

Pour my heart into the dust,
Step aside and watch it rust,
You don′t need to bury me,
I′ve buried myself...

I′ve gone crazy...
Please forgive me...
I′ve gone crazy,
I′m so sorry...

Then a voice above the rest,
Calls my name so gracefully,
And as I heard, it said,
A hole was filled in me.

Angels in the alleyway
Lift me up and said,
Follow me my son I′ll show you the way

Angels in the alleyway...
The angels in the alleyway, they′re always listening,

Angels in the alleyway...

Текст песни:

Hey, Mmmm,

Well I don′t know how to say this right,
And the words got me choking,
I keep hitting this wall,
It′s never gonna fall,
And we′re still broken,
This mountail we′ve been trying to climb,
It′s never ending,
Just can′t do nothing, gotta do something,
Cause if we don′t open up our eyes,
We′re just pretending,

Well there′s a time for giving up,
Didn′t wanna have to say it,
All we′re doing is building walls,
And now there′s too many barriers,

Here we are lying here,
It′s our last final goodnight,
Just because it feels so good,
We′re used to pretending we′re alright,
Too many locks (locks), too many cries (cries),
Too many tears (tears), too many lies (lies),
Too many barriers (barriers).
Oh, just too many barriers.

Now we′ve been draggin′ this whole thing out,
But I can′t wait any longer.
Our love′s burnin′ down,
Creepin′ in the doubt, we′re not gettin′ any stronger.
I hear you say that we′re doin′ okay,
But, baby, I don′t think so.
Just can′t do nothin′; gotta do somethin′,
′Cause if I don′t get into my car,
I won′t go very far.
Well, there′s a time for givin′ up.
Didn′t wanna have to say it.
All we′re doin′ is building walls.
Now there′s too many barriers.

Here we are, lyin′ here.
It′s our last final goodnight.
Just because it feels so good,
We′re used to pretending we′re alright.
Too many locks (locks), too many cries (cries),
Too many tears (tears), too many lies (lies),
Too many barriers (barriers).
Too many barriers.
Just too many barriers

That we keep running into.
Been tryin′, but we just can′t break through.
I know I′m gonna keep wishin′ I was with you,
But we just gotta stop...

Here we are, lyin′ here.
It′s our last final goodnight.
Just because it feels so good,
We′re used to pretending we′re alright.
Too many locks (locks), too many cries (cries),
Too many tears (tears), too many lies (lies),
Too many lies.
In a hurry to get somewhere,
And the road′s tryin′ to block ya, block ya (too many barriers)
And you feel like you′re nowhere,
′Cause the world′s tryin′ to stop ya, stop ya (too many barriers)
In a hurry to get somewhere,
And the road′s tryin′ to block ya, block ya (too many barriers)
And you feel like you′re nowhere,
′Cause the world′s tryin′ to stop ya, stop ya (too many barriers)

Текст песни:

I hung up the phone tonight
Something happened for the first time
Deep inside
It was a rush
What a rush
′Cause the possibility
That you would ever feel the same way
About me
It′s just too much
Just too much

Why do I keep running from the truth
All I ever think about is you
You got me hypnotized
So mesmerized
And I′ve just got to know

[chorus]
Do you ever think
When you′re all alone
All that we could be
Where this thing could go
Am I crazy or falling in love
Is it real or just another crush
Do you catch a breath
When I look at you
Are you holding back
Like the way I do
′Cause I′m trying, trying to walk away
But i know this crush ain′t going
Away
Going away

Has it ever crossed your mind
When we′re hanging,
Spending time, girl, are we just friends
Is there more
Is there more
See it′s a chance we′ve gotta take
′Cause I believe that we can make this
Into something that′ll last
Last forever
Forever

[chorus]

Why do I keep running from the truth
(Why do I keep running)
All I ever think about is you
(All I ever think about)
You got me hypnotized
(Hypnotized)
So mesmerized
(mesmerized)
And I′ve just got to know

[chorus]

Going away
Going away

Текст песни:

Desperate.. Desperate..

You′re reachin′ out,
And no one hears your cry.
You′re freakin′ out again
′Cause all your fears remind you.
Another dream has come undone.
You feel so small and lost
Like you′re the only one.
You wanna scream,
′Cause you′re desperate.

You want somebody, just anybody
To lay their hands on your soul tonight.
You want a reason to keep believin′
That some day you′re gonna see the light...

You′re in the dark;
There′s no one left to call.
And sleep′s you′re only friend,
But even sleep can′t hide you
From all those tears and all the pain
And all the days you waste pushin′ them away.
It′s your life; it′s time you face it.

You want somebody, just anybody
To lay their hands on your soul tonight.
You want a reason to keep believin′
That some day you′re gonna see the light...
′Cause you′re desperate, desperate.
′Cause you′re desperate now...

You know the things have gotta change.
You can′t go back, you find a way.
And day by day, you start to come alive.

You want somebody, just anybody
To bring some peace to your soul tonight.
You want a reason to keep believin′
That some day you′re gonna see the light...

You want somebody, just anybody
To lay their hands on your soul tonight.
You want a reason to keep believin′
That some day you′re gonna see the light...
′Cause you′re desperate, desperate.
′Cause you′re desperate tonight.
Oh, desperate... So desperate tonight,
Tonight...

Desperate, desperate....

Текст песни:

I know that look in your eyes,
I don′t wanna say goodnight.
Do anything to change your mind,
Try to make you see the light.
You turn your back,
And still I say anything to make you stay.
Put up walls made of heartbreak,
Try to hide your love away.
I′m standin′ here, you′re givin′ me nothing.
Try to feel your heart beat through the door...

Hold on, hold on, is what I′m doing.
So strong, so strong, is what I′m feeling.
It′s too much, too much.
Oh, don′t let go.
Don′t let go.

There′s somethin′ that you′re going through,
Wish that I could fix for you.
You don′t have to be alone,
I don′t wanna let you go.
I′m standin′ here, you′re givin′ me nothing.
Try to hear your heart break through the door.
Call it love, call it what you want to.
It′s the only thing that matters anymore.

Hold on, hold on, is what I′m doing.
So strong, so strong, is what I′m feeling.
It′s too much, too much.
Oh, don′t let go.
Oh, don′t let go.
Don′t let go.

Oooohhhhhh
Some days are cold,
But together, one day we′ll both
Change the weather.
And it gets better.

Oooohhhhhh......

Hold on, hold on, is what I′m doing
So strong, so strong, is what I′m feeling.
It′s too much, too much.
Oh, don′t let go.
Oh, don′t let go.
Don′t let go.

Mmmmmmm....

@ David Archuleta

Текст песни:

I can′t light no more of your darkness
All my pictures seem to fade to black and white
I′m growing tired and time stands still before me
Frozen here on the ladder of my life

Too late to save myself from falling
I took a chance and changed your way of life
But you misread my meaning when I met you
Closed the door and left me blinded by the light

Don′t let the sun go down on me
Although I search myself, it′s always someone else I see
I′d just allow a fragment of your life to wander free
But losing everything is like the sun going down on me

I can′t find, oh the right romantic line
But see me once and see the way I feel
Don′t discard me just because you think I mean you harm
But these cuts I have they need love to help them heal
