Paul McCartney - My Valentine (2012)



What if it rained?
We didn't care
She said that someday soon
The sun was gonna shine.
And she was right,
This love of mine,
My valentine

As days and nights,
Would pass me by
I tell myself that I was waiting for a sign
Then she appeared,
A love so fine,
My valentine

And I will love her for life
And I will never let a day go by
Without remembering the reasons why
She makes me certain
That I can fly

And so I do,
Without a care
I know that someday soon the sun is gonna shine
And she'll be there
This love of mine
My valentine

(Instrumental)

What if it rained?
We didn't care.
She said that someday soon
The sun was gonna shine
And she was right
This love of mine,
My valentine.

Alabama Shakes - Hold On (2012)



Bless my heart.
Bless my soul.
Didn't think I'd make it to 22yrs old.
There must be someone up above sayin' "Come on Brittany,

you got to come on up."
"You got to Hold on..."

So, bless my heart and bless yours too.
I don;'t know where I'm gonna go don't what what I'm

gonna do.
Must be somebody up above sayin' "Come on Brittany, You

got to come on up!"
"You got to hold on..."

YEAH! YOU GOT TO WAIT!
YEAH! YOU GOT TO WAIT!
BUT, I DON'T WANNA WAIT!
I DON'T WANNA WAIT...

So, bless my heart.
Bless my mind.
I got so much to do, I ain't got much time
So, must be someone up above saying "Come on girl! You

got to get back up!!"
"You got to hold on..."

"YEAH! YOU GOT TO WAIT!"
I DON'T WANNA WAIT!
WELL, I DON'T WANNA WAIT!
NO, I DON'T WANNA WAIT!

"You got to hold on..."

Δημήτρης Μητροπάνος - Ρόζα (1996)



Τα χείλη μου ξερά και διψασμένα
γυρεύουνε στην άσφαλτο νερό
περνάνε δίπλα μου τα τροχοφόρα
και συ μου λες μας περιμένει η μπόρα
και με τραβάς σε καμπαρέ υγρό

Βαδίζουμε μαζί στον ίδιο δρόμο
μα τα κελιά μας είναι χωριστά
σε πολιτεία μαγική γυρνάμε
δε θέλω πια να μάθω τι ζητάμε
φτάνει να μου χαρίσεις δυο φιλιά

Με παίζεις στη ρουλέτα και με χάνεις
σε ένα παραμύθι εφιαλτικό
φωνή εντόμου τώρα ειν' η φωνή μου
φυτό αναρριχώμενο η ζωή μου
με κόβεις και με ρίχνεις στο κενό

Πώς η ανάγκη γίνεται ιστορία
πώς η ιστορία γίνεται σιωπή
τι με κοιτάζεις Ρόζα μουδιασμένο
συγχώρα με που δεν καταλαβαίνω
τι λένε τα κομπιούτερς κι οι αριθμοί

Αγάπη μου από κάρβουνο και θειάφι
πώς σ' έχει αλλάξει έτσι ο καιρός
περνάνε πάνω μας τα τροχοφόρα
και γω μέσ' στην ομίχλη και τη μπόρα
κοιμάμαι στο πλευρό σου νηστικός

Πώς η ανάγκη γίνεται ιστορία
πώς η ιστορία γίνεται σιωπή
τι με κοιτάζεις Ρόζα μουδιασμένο
συγχώρα με που δεν καταλαβαίνω
τι λένε τα κομπιούτερς κι οι αριθμοί.

The Rolling Stones - Time Waits For No One (1974)



Yes, star crossed in pleasure, the stream flows on by
Yes, as we're sated in leisure, we watch it fly

And time waits for no one, and it won't wait for me
And time waits for no one, and it won't wait for me

Time can tear down a building or destroy a woman's face
Hours are like diamonds, don't let them waste

Time waits for no one, no favours has he
Time waits for no one, and he won't wait for me

Men, they build towers to their passing yes, to their fame everlasting
Here he comes chopping and reaping, hear him laugh at their cheating

And time waits for no man, and it won't wait for me
Yes, time waits for no one, and it won't wait for me

Drink in your summer, gather your corn
The dreams of the night time will have vanished by dawn

And time waits for no one, and it won't wait for me
And time waits for no one, and it won't wait for me

No no no, not for me...

Dominique A & Yann Tiersen - Monochrome (1998)



Anyway, i can try anything it's the same circle
that leads to nowhere and i'm tired now.
anyway, i've lost my face, my dignity, my look,
all of these things are gone and i'm tired now.
but don't be scared, i found a good job and i go to work
every day on my old bicycle you loved.
i'm pilling up some unread books under my bed and
i really think i'll never read again.
no concentration, just a white disorder everywhere around me,
you know i'm so tired now.
 
But don't worry i often go to dinners and parties
with some old friends who care for me, take me back home and stay.
mochrome floors, monochrome walls,
only abscence near me, nothing but silence around me.
monochrome flat, monochrome life,
only abscence near me, nothing but silence around me.
sometimes i search an event or something to remember,
but i've really got nothing in mind.
sometimes i open the windows and listen people
walking in the down streets there is a life out there.
but don't be scared, i found a good job and i go to work
every day on my old bicycle you loved.

The Who - 5:15 (1973)




Why should I care?
Why should I care?

Girls of fifteen
Sexually knowing
The ushers are sniffing
Eau-de-cologning
The seats are seductive
Celibate sitting
Pretty girls digging
Prettier women.

Magically bored
On a quiet street corner
Free frustration
In our minds and our toes
Quiet stormwater
M-m-my generation
Uppers and downers
Either way blood flows.

Inside outside
Leave me alone.
Inside outside
Nowhere is home.
Inside outside
Where have I been?
Out of my brain on the five fifteen
Out of my brain on a train.

On a raft in the quarry
Slowly sinking.
On the back of a lorry
Holy hitching.
Dreadfully sorry
Apple scrumping.
Born in the war
Birthday punching.

He man drag
In the glittering ballroom
Greyly outrageous
In my high heel shoes
Tightly undone
They know what they're showing
Sadly ecstatic
That their heroes are news.

Inside outside
Leave me alone.
Inside outside
Nowhere is home.
Inside outside
Where have I been?
Out of my brain on the five fifteen
Out of my brain on a train.

Why should I care?
Why should I care?

Jack White - Love Interruption (2012)



I want love
To roll me over slowly
stick a knife inside me,
and twist it all around.

I want love to
grab my fingers gently
slam them in a doorway
put my face into the ground.

I want love to
murder my own mother
and take her off to somewhere
like hell or up above.

I want love to
change my friends to enemies,
change my friends to enemies
and show me how it's all my fault.

I wont let love disrupt, corrupt or interrupt me x 2
Yeah I wont let love disrupt, corrupt, or interrupt me anymore.

I want love to
walk right up and bite me
grab a hold of me and fight me
leave me dying on the ground.

And I want love to
split my mouth wide open and
cover up my ears,
and never let me hear a sound.

I want love to,
forget that you offended me
or how you have defended me,
when everybody tore me down.

Yeah I want love to
change my friends to enemies,
change my friends to enemies
and show me how it's all my fault.

Yeah I wont let love disrupt, corrupt or interrupt me
I wont let love disrupt, corrupt or interrupt me
I wont let love disrupt, corrupt, or interrupt me anymore.
