Anything but Mine / Kenny Chesney

Anything but Mine / Kenny Chesney

Walking along beneath
the lights of that miracle mile
Me and Mary making our way into the night
You can hear the cries from the carnival rides
The pin ball bells and the ski ball slides
Watching the summer sun fall out of sight
There's a warm wind coming in off the ocean
Making its way past the hotel walls to fill the street
Mary is holding both of her shoes in her hand
She said she likes to feel the sand beneath her feet
And in the morning I am leaving
Making my way back to Cleveland
So tonight I hope I will do just fine
And I don't see how you could ever be anything but mine
 
Kali Uchis - Loner

I don't want to be your cigarette
I don't want to be your ashtray
I don't want to be your door mat
Don't want to be ignored
All o' sudden you're not into me
And maybe it's not deliberate
And I know you never asked me
I just gotta put it out there
I don't put myself out there
Usually I stay tucked away
Cause I was a loner until I met you
And I let you in after all the persuasion
Mind games, manipulations

[Hook:]
That's why I'd rather be a loner
Yeah I'd rather be alone
I don't even want to know ya
I don't want to be known
Cause I'd rather be a loner
I'd much rather be alone
Baby it was nice to know ya
Packing up and leaving home

No I don't want to be your cigarette
Use me up then toss me, step on me
I don't want to be an option
Avoidin' interaction cause
I just want to get away
And maybe you got a full plate
Know I'm cookin' something better
But if you don't want me now
No boy I don't want you later
Don't try to come and eat with me
Cause I was a loner until I met you
And I let you in after all the persuasion
Headaches and allegations

[Hook]
 
One, don't pick up the phone
You know he's only calling 'cause he's drunk and alone
Two, don't let him in
You'll have to kick him out again
Three, don't be his friend
You know you're gonna wake up in his bed in the morning
And if you're under him, you ain't getting over him
 
I know someday you'll have a beautiful life
I know you'll be a star
In somebody else's sky
But why
Why
Why can't it be
Why can't it be mine
 
But I'll control my feelings
I find faith, healing
And I'll find hope singing
The way is so long
But I'm gonna be strong


 
Do you remember the
21st night of September?
Love was changing the minds of pretenders
While chasing the clouds away

Our hearts were ringing
In the key that our souls were singing.
As we danced in the night,
Remember how the stars stole the night away

Ba de ya - say do you remember
Ba de ya - dancing in September
Ba de ya - never was a cloudy day

Ba duda, ba duda, ba duda, badu
Ba duda, badu, ba duda, badu
Ba duda, badu, ba duda

My thoughts are with you
Holding hands with your heart to see you
Only blue talk and love,
Remember how we knew love was here to stay

Now December found the love we shared in September.
Only blue talk and love,
Remember the true love we share today

Ba de ya - say do you remember
Ba de ya - dancing in September
Ba de ya - never was a cloudy day

There was a
Ba de ya - say do you remember
Ba de ya - dancing in September
Ba de ya - golden dreams were shiny days

The bell was ringing, aha
Our souls were singing
Do you remember
Never a cloudy day

There was a
Ba de ya - say do you remember
Ba de ya - dancing in September
Ba de ya - never was a cloudy day

There was a
Ba de ya - say do you remember
Ba de ya - dancing in September
Ba de ya - golden dreams were shiny days

Ba de ya de ya de ya
Ba de ya de ya de ya
ba de ya de ya de ya
De ya

Ba de ya de ya de ya
Ba de ya de ya de ya
ba de ya de ya de ya
 
Just hold on loosely , but don't let go
If you cling too tightly , you're gonna lose control
Your baby needs someone to believe in
And a whole lot space to breathe in

 
SZA - Anything
​
Maybe I should kill my inhibition
Maybe I'll be perfect in a new dimension

Maybe I should pray a little harder
Or work a little smarter
This time baby promise I have learned my lesson ooh

Down for the ride, down for the ride
You could take me anywhere
Do do do down for the ride, down for the ride
You could take me anywhere
I hope you will, I hope you will, I hope you will

Keepin' up is hard to do
Even harder feeling heavy, steady chasin' you
Baby baby, why are you lookin' around, you lonely?
I feel you comin' down like honey
Do do you even know I'm alive?
Do do you even know I, I

Maybe I should pray a little harder
Or work a little smarter
This time baby promise I have learned my lesson ooh

Down for the ride, down for the ride
You could take me anywhere
Do do do down for the ride, down for the ride
You could take me anywhere
I hope you will, I hope you will, I hope you will

Do do you even know I'm alive?
Do do you even know I, I
Do do you even know I'm alive?
Do do you even know I, I
Do do you even know I'm alive?
Do do you even know I, I
Do do you even know I'm alive?
Do do you even know I, I
Do do you even know I'm alive?
Do do you even know I, I
Do do you even know I'm alive?
Do do you even know I, I
Do you know I'm alive?
Do you even know?​
 
Wasted Time

Wasted Time

Summer dresses dryin out
On the hood of the car
Only music we had
Was out of the left speaker
We where livin every second
Till the time ran out
We had nothing
But we had it all

When I think about those summer nights !
Sneakin out the window
Runnin back roads
Your hand in mine
We where goin nowhere , but so alive
Ain't it crazy
The best days of my life
Was all that wasted time !

My heart is broke
But I have some glue
Help me inhale
And mend it with you
We'll float around
And hang out on clouds
Then we'll come down
And have a hangover ...
Have a hangover

 
Sway

Sway

We're all in same boat
Life can really suck sometimes
But hey can't live in a shadow
So here's a little piece of advice

Start by kickin off your shoes
Leave em right by the door
Then you call a couple of friends
And you call a few more
Put a drink in to your glass
That'll make u let go
Then you find something smooth on the radio

That makes you want to sway to the left and sway to the right
Get lost in a groove that'll make you lose yur mind
Put a smile on your face and you right into a daze
No there ain't nothing wrong when a song
Comes on that makes you wanna
Sway to the left and sway to the right

 
I heard he spent five hundred pounds on jeans
Goes to the gym at least six times a week
Wears both shoes with no socks on his feet
And I hear he's on a new diet at watches what he eats
He's got his eyebrows plucked and his ******* bleached
Owns every single Ministry CD
Tribal tattoos and he don't know what it means
But I heard he makes you happy, so that's fine by me

But still, I'm just keepin' it real
Still lookin' at your Instagram and I'll be creepin' a lil'
I'll be tryin' not to double tap, from way back
'Cause I know that's where the trouble's at

Let me remind you of the days when
You used to hold my hand
And when we sipped champagne out of cider cans
I guess if you were Louis Lane, I wasn't Superman
Just a young boy tryin' to be loved
So let me give it to ya

I don't wanna know about your new man
'Cause if it was meant to be
You wouldn't be callin' me up tryin' to ****
'Cause I'm positive that he don't wanna know about me
I don't wanna know about your new man
We'll get there eventually
I know you're missin' all this kind of love
But I'm positive that he don't wanna know about me

Your new man rents a house in the 'burb
And wears a man bag on his shoulder, but I just call it a purse
Every year, he goes to Málaga with all the fellas
Drinks beer, but has a six pack, I'm kinda jealous
He wears sunglasses indoors, in winter, at nighttime
And every time a rap song comes on, he makes a gang sign
Says, chune, boy never light up the room
But enough about him, girl, let's talk about you

You were the type of girl who sat beside the water readin'
Eatin' a packet of crisp, but you will never find you cheatin'
Now you're eatin' kale, hittin' the gym keepin' up with Kylie and Kim
In the back of the club, kissin' a boy that ain't him
Okay, you need to be alone
And if you wanna talk about it, you can call my phone
I just thought I would tell you, 'cause oughta know
You're still a young girl tryin' to be loved
So let me give it to ya

I don't wanna know about your new man
'Cause if it was meant to be
You wouldn't be callin' me up tryin' to ****
'Cause I'm positive that he don't wanna know about me
I don't wanna know about your new man
We'll get there eventually
I know you're missin' all this kind of love
But I'm positive that he don't wanna know about me

Baby, I'm not tryin' to ruin your week
But you act so differently
When you're with him, I know you're lonely
Please remember you're still free
To make the choice and leave
Don't call me up, you need to show me

I don't wanna know about your new man
'Cause if it was meant to be
You wouldn't be callin' me up tryin' to ****
'Cause I'm positive that he don't wanna know about me
I don't wanna know about your new man
We'll get there eventually
I know you're missin' all this kind of love
But I'm positive that he don't wanna know about me
 
So This is Christmas

So This is Christmas

So this is Christmas
And what have we done
Another year over , and a new one just begun
And so this is Christmas , I hope you have fun
The near and dear ones , the old and the young
A very merry Christmas and a happy new year
Let's hope its a good one without any fear
 
I wish I was your favorite girl
I wish you thought I was the reason you are in the world
I wish my smile was your favorite kind of smile
I wish the way that I dressed was your favorite kind of style


I wish you couldn't figure me out
But you always wanna know what I was about
I wish you'd hold my hand
When I was upset
I wish you'd never forget
The look on my face when we first met


I wish you had a favorite beauty spot
That you loved secretly
Cause it was on a hidden bit
That nobody else could see

Basically, I wish that you loved me
I wish that you needed me
I wish that you knew when I said two sugars,
Actually I meant three


I wish that without me your heart would break
I wish that without me you'd be spending the rest of your nights awake
I wish that without me you couldn't eat
I wish I was the last thing on your mind before you went to sleep


Look, all I know is that you're the nicest thing I've ever seen
And I wish that we could see if we could be something
 
I'm Alright

I'm Alright

Well it's been a long time , glad to see your face
I knew we'd meet again , another time another place
Can't believe its been so many years
You better grab a chair and a couple of beers
Lookin good in your 3 piece suit
You know , I always knew you take the business route
You where always the one to follow the light
And you look like your doing alright

I'm all , I'm all , I'm alright
It's a beautiful day , not a cloud in sight
So I guess I'm doing alright
 
If I’m upset, you don’t stress.
Never forget, god hasn’t finished with me yet.
I feel his hands on my brain.
When i write rhymes, i go blind, and let the lord do his thang.

-2Pac - Ghetto Gospel.
 
5 More Minutes

5 More Minutes

Time rolls by , the clock don't stop
I wish I had a few more drops
Of the good stuff , the good times
Oh but they just keep on flying
Right on by like it ain't nothing
Wish I had me a pause button
Moments like those , Lord knows I hit it
And give myself 5 more minutes




 
Most People Are Good

Most People Are Good

I believe most people are good
and most mama's oughta qualify for sainthood
I believe most Friday nights
Look better under neon or stadium lights
I believe you love who you love
Nothin you should ever be ashamed of
I believe this world aint half as bad as it looks
I believe most people are good.
 
i know it's over - the smiths


i know it's over
and it never really began
but in my heart it was so real
and you even spoke to me and said:

"if you're so funny
then why are you on your own tonight?
and if you're so clever
then why are you on your own tonight?
if you're so very entertaining
then why are you on your own tonight?
if you're so very good looking
why do you sleep alone tonight?
i know because tonight is just like any other night
that's why you're on your own tonight
with your triumphs and your charms
while they are in each other's arms"
