Elvis Presley - Fame and fortune

Fame and fortune
how empty they can be
But when I hold you in my arms
That′s heaven to me
Who cares for fame and fortune
They′re only passing things
But the touch of your lips on mine
Makes me feel like a king

Your kind of love
is a treasure I hold
It′s so much greater
than silver or gold
I know that I have nothing
If you should go away
But to know that you love me
Brings fame and fortune my way

Elvis Presley - Anyplace Is Paradise

Whether you′re riding down a highway
Or walkin′ down a street
It makes no difference baby
I′m gonna love you just as mean
′Cause holdin′ your little hand
Makes me feel so very nice
Anyplace is paradise
When I′m with you

Whether we′re standin′ on a doorstep
Or sittin′ at a park
Or strollin′ down shady lane
Or dancin′ in the dark
Well I can take you in my arms
And look into your pretty eyes
Anyplace is paradise
When I′m with you

Give me a cave up in the mountain
Or a shack down by the sea
And I will be in heaven honey
If you are there with me
Well kiss your pretty lips
See the love-light in your eyes
Anyplace is paradise
When I′m with you

Baby I′d live deep in the jungle
And sleep up in a tree
And let the rest of the world go be
If you were there with me
Well I could love you all the time
Baby, a jungle would be fine
Anyplace is paradise
When I′m with you

Elvis Presley - Bosom of Abraham

Well you rock my soul
Down in the bosom of Abraham
Rock, rock, rock down in the bosom of Abraham
He rocks my soul down in the bosom of Abraham

Well a rich man lives, He lives so well
Children, when he dies on a lonely hill
Why don′t you rock my soul in the bosom of Abraham

Elvis Presley - When The Snow Is On The Roses

Verse1

Now the golden sun can see us kiss
Every summer day we′ll love like this
And when the snow is on roses
When the bluebird′s flown away
In my arms we′ll both remember
All the love we share today

Verse2

As we walk along the silvery shore
Vows we make will last forevermore
When the snow is on the roses
When the summer stars are gone
One more summer will be over
But our love will still go on

Elvis Presley - Almost

We almost shared a dream
We almost made it as a team
How nice it would have been.

We almost touched the stars
And there stood heaven, almost ours
We were just outsiders looking in.

We had the chance to fall
But fate stepped in to end it all
Before it could begin.

And if it′s true, you′re really going
There′s nothing but goodbye to say
The saddest part of all is knowing
We almost went all the way

Elvis Presley - Such a night

It was a night oo-oo what a night
It was it really was such a night
The moon was bright oh how so bright
It was it really was such a night
The night was alight with stars above
Oo-oo when she kissed me
I had to fall in love

Oh it was a kiss oo-oo what a kiss
It was it really was such a kiss
Oh how she could kiss oh what a kiss
It was it really was such a kiss
Just the thought of her lips
Sets me afire
I reminisce and I′m filled with desire
But I′d gave my heart to her in sweet surrender
How well I remember, I′ll always remember

Oh, what a night oo-oo what a night
It was it really was such a night
Came the dawn and my heart and her love
And the night was gone
But I′ll never forget the kiss
The kiss in the moonlight
Oo-oo such a kiss, such a night

It was a night oo-oo what a night
It was it really was such a night
Came the dawn and my heart and her love
And the night was gone
But I′ll never forget the kiss
The kiss in the moonlight
How well I remember, I′ll always remember

That night oo-oo what a night
It was it really was such a night
When we kissed I had to fall in love
But I′d gave my heart to her in sweet surrender
How well I remember, I′ll always remember

Oh that night oo-oo what a night
It was it really was such a night
When we kissed I had to fall in love
Well she′s gone, gone, gone
Yes she′s gone, gone, gone
Came the dawn, dawn, dawn
And my love was gone
But before that dawn
Yes before that dawn and before that dawn
Oo-oo, oo-oo, oo-oo, oo-oo, oo-oo
Such a night

Elvis Presley - Amazing Grace

Amazing grace, oh how sweet the sound
That saved a wreck like me
I once was lost, though now I′m found
I was blind, but now I see
When we′ve been there ten thousand years
Bright shining as the sun
We′ve no less days to sing God′s praise
Then when, when we first begun
Too many ages false and spent
I have already hung
This face and flock He saved us by
His endless grace will leave me whole
Amazing grace, oh how sweet the sound
To save a wreck like me

I once was lost, but now I′m found
I was blind, but now I see

Elvis Presley - Anyone Could Fall in Love With You

Anyone could fall in love with you
Anyone who knows you as I do
Anyone could fall in love with you
And I love you my darling

Anyone could lose his heart like me
Anyone who has eyes that can see
Anyone could fall in love like me
And I love you my darling

You′re the star I reached for
You′re a dream so rare
You′re my greatest treasure
Nothing can compare

Anyone could want you for his own
Anyone not only mine alone
Anyone could fall in love with you
And I love you my darling
Anyone could fall in love with you
And I love you my darling

Elvis Presley - Angel

Angel, with those angel eyes
Come and take this earth boy
Up to paradise

Angel, may I hold you tight?
Never kissed an angel
Let me kiss one tonight

If I said "I love you"
Would I be speaking out of turn?
I′m only human, but I′m willing to learn

Angel, make my wish come true
Let me be in heaven here on earth with you

Angel, never kissed an angel
Let me kiss one tonight

If I said "I love you"
Would I be speaking out of turn?
I′m only human, but I′m willing to learn

Angel, make my wish come true
Let me be in heaven here on earth with you

Angel, Angel

Elvis Presley - Fever

Never know how much I love you
Never know how much I care
When you put your arms around me
I get a fever that′s so hard to bear

You give me fever when you kiss me
Fever when you hold me tight
Fever in the morning
Fever all through the night.

Ev′rybody′s got the fever
that is something you all know
Fever isn′t such a new thing
Fever started long ago

Sun lights up the daytime
Moon lights up the night
I light up when you call my name
And you know I′m gonna treat you right

You give me fever when you kiss me
Fever when you hold me tight
Fever in the morning
Fever all through the night

Romeo loved Juliet
Juliet she felt the same
When he put his arms around her
He said ′Julie, baby, you′re my flame
Thou giv-est fever when we kisseth
Fever with the flaming youth
Fever I′m afire
Fever yea I burn for sooth′

Captain Smith and Pocahantas
Had a very mad affair
When her daddy tried to kill him
She said ′Daddy, o, don′t you dare
He gives me fever with his kisses
Fever when he holds me tight
Fever, I′m his misses,
Oh daddy, won′t you treat him right′

Now you′ve listened to my story
Here′s the point that I have made
Cats were born to give chicks fever
Be it Fahrenheit or centigrade
They give you fever when you kiss them
Fever if you live and learn
Fever till you sizzle
What a lovely way to burn
What a lovely way to burn
What a lovely way to burn

Elvis Presley - Blue Moon of Kentucky

Blue moon, blue moon, blue moon,
keep shining bright.
Blue moon, keep on shining bright,
You′re gonna bring me back my baby tonight,
Blue moon, keep shining bright.

I said blue moon of Kentucky
keep on shining,
Shine on the one that′s gone and left me blue.
I said blue moon of Kentucky

Well, it was on one moonlight night,
Stars shining bright,

Love said good-bye.

Blue moon of Kentucky
Keep on shining.
Shine on the one that′s gone and left me blue.

Well, I said blue moon of Kentucky
Just keep on shining.
Shine on the one that′s gone and left me blue.

Stars shining bright,
Wish blown high

Keep on shining.
Shine on the one that′s gone and left me blue.

Elvis Presley - Always on My Mind

Maybe I didn′t treat you
Quite as good as I should have
Maybe I didn′t love you
Quite as often as I could have
Little things I should have said and done
I just never took the time

You were always on my mind
You were always on my mind

Tell me, tell me that your sweet love hasn′t died
Give me, give me one more chance
To keep you satisfied, satisfied

Maybe I didn′t hold you
All those lonely, lonely times
And I guess I never told you
I′m so happy that you′re mine
If I make you feel second best
Girl, I′m sorry I was blind

You were always on my mind
You were always on my mind

Tell me, tell me that your sweet love hasn′t died
Give me, give me one more chance
To keep you satisfied, satisfied

Little things I should have said and done
I just never took the time
You were always on my mind
You are always on my mind
You are always on my mind

Elvis Presley - A Little Less Conversation

A little less conversation, a little more action please
All this aggravation ain′t satisfactioning me
A little more bite and a little less bark
A little less fight and a little more spark
Close your mouth and open up your heart and baby satisfy me
Satisfy me baby

Baby close your eyes and listen to the music
Drifting through a summer breeze
It′s a groovy night and I can show you how to use it
Come along with me and put your mind at ease

A little less conversation, a little more action please
All this aggravation ain′t satisfactioning me
A little more bite and a little less bark
A little less fight and a little more spark
Close your mouth and open up your heart and baby satisfy me
Satisfy me baby

Come on baby I′m tired of talking
Grab your coat and let′s start walking
Come on, come on
Come on, come on
Come on, come on
Don′t procastinate, don′t articulate
Girl it′s getting late, gettin′ upset waitin′ around

A little less conversation, a little more action please
All this aggravation ain′t satisfactioning me
A little more bite and a little less bark
A little less fight and a little more spark
Close your mouth and open up your heart and baby satisfy me
Satisfy me baby

Your lips were made for kisses so tender

When we are close, my heart says surrender

And here under the spell of evening

I′m almost in love tonight

It may be just the spell of evening
I long to hold you tight
Heaven is near, why think of tomorrow
I′m almost in love tonight

Almost in love

Elvis Presley - Blueberry Hill

I found my thrill on blueberry hill
On blueberry hill when I found you
The moon stood still on blueberry hill
And lingered until my dreams came true

The wind in the willow played
Love′s sweet melody
But all of those vows we made
Were never to be

Tho′ we′re apart, you′re part of me still
For you were my thrill on blueberry hill

Blue Christmas
(words & music by Billy Hayes - Jay Johnson)

I′ll have a Blue Christmas without you
I′ll be so blue thinking about you
Decorations of red on a green Christmastree
Won′t mean a think if you′re not here with me

I′ll have a Blue Christmas that′s certain
And when that blue heartache starts hurtin′
You′ll be doin′ all right, with your Christmas of white,
But I′ll have a blue, blue Christmas

Elvis Presley - Blue Eyes Crying in the Rain

In the twilight glow I see her
Blue eyes crying in the rain
When we kissed goodbye and parted
I knew we′d never meet again

Love is like a dying ember
Only memories remain
Through the ages I remember
Blue eyes crying in the rain

Someday when we meet up yonder
We′ll stroll hand in hand again
In a land that knows no parting
Blue eyes crying in the rain

Blue eyes crying in the rain
Blue eyes crying in the rain
Blue eyes crying in the rain

Elvis Presley - As Long As I Have You

Let the stars fade and fall
And I won′t care at all
As long as I have you

Every kiss brings a thrill
And I know that it will
As long as I have you

Let′s think of the future
Forget the past
You′re not my first love
But you′re my last
Take the love that I bring
Then I′ll have everything
As long as I have you

Let′s think of the future
Forget the past
You′re not my first love
But you′re my last
Take the love that I bring
Then I′ll have everything
As long as I have you

As long, as long as I have you

Elvis Presley - And I Love You So

And I love you so,
The people ask me how,
How I′ve lived till now
I tell them I don′t know

I guess they understand
How lonely life has been
But life began again
The day you took my hand

And yes I know how lonely life can be
Shadows follow me
The night won′t set me free
But I don′t let the evening get me down
Now that you′re around me

And you love me too
Your thoughts are just for me
You set my spirit free
I′m happy that you do

The look at life is brief
Once the page is read
All but love is dead
This is my believe

Elvis Presley - All Shook Up

A well I bless my soul
What′s wrong with me?
I′m itching like a man on a fuzzy tree
My friends say I′m actin′ queer as a bug
I′m in love
I′m all shook up
Mm mm oh, oh, yeah, yeah!

My hands are shaky and my knees are weak
I can′t seem to stand on my own two feet
Who do you thank when you have such luck?
I′m in love
I′m all shook up
Mm mm oh, oh, yeah, yeah!

Please don′t ask me what′s on my mind
I′m a little mixed up, but I′m feelin′ fine
When I′m near that girl that I love best
My heart beats so it scares me to death!

She touched my hand what a chill I got
Her kisses are like a vulcano that′s hot
I′m proud to say she′s my buttercup
I′m in love
I′m all shook up
Mm mm oh, oh, yeah, yeah!

My tongue get tied when I try to speak
My insides shake like a leaf on a tree
There′s only one cure for this soul of mine
That′s to have the girl that I love so fine!

Elvis Presley - Blue Suede Shoes

Well, it′s one for the money,
Two for the show,
Three to get ready,
Now go, cat, go.

But don′t you step on my blue suede shoes.
You can do anything but lay off of my Blue suede shoes.

Well, you can knock me down,
Step in my face,
Slander my name
All over the place.

Do anything that you want to do, but uh-uh,
Honey, lay off of my shoes
Don′t you step on my Blue suede shoes.
You can do anything but lay off of my blue suede shoes.

Burn my house,
Steal my car,
Drink my cider
From my old fruitjar.

Do anything that you want to do, but uh-uh,
Honey, lay off of my shoes
Don′t you step on my blue suede shoes.
You can do anything but lay off of my blue suede shoes.

Elvis Presley - Unchained Melody

Oh, my love, my darling
I′ve hungered for your touch, a long lonely time
And time goes by, so slowly and time can do so much
Are you, still mine?
I need your love, I need your love
God speed your love to me

Lonely rivers flow to the sea, to the sea
To the waiting arms of the sea
Lonely rivers cry, wait for me, wait for me
To the open arms, wait for me

My love, my darling, I′ve hungered for your kiss
Are you still mine?
I need your love, I need your love
God, speed your love, to me

Elvis Presley - My Way

And now, the end is near;
And so I face the final curtain.
My friend, I’ll say it clear,
I’ll state my case, of which I’m certain.

I’ve lived a life that’s full.
I’ve traveled each and ev’ry highway;
And more, much more than this,
I did it my way.

Regrets, I’ve had a few;
But then again, too few to mention.
I did what I had to do
And saw it through without exemption.

I planned each charted course;
Each careful step along the byway,
But more, much more than this,
I did it my way.

Yes, there were times, I’m sure you knew (not "know")
When I bit off more than I could chew.
But through it all, when there was doubt,
I ate it up and spit it out.
I faced it all and I stood tall;
And did it my way.

I’ve loved, I’ve laughed and cried.
I’ve had my fill; my share of losing.
And now, as tears subside,
I find it all so amusing.

To think I did all that;
And may I say - not in a shy way,
No, oh no not me,
I did it my way.

For what is a man, what has he got?
If not himself, then he has naught.(not "NOT")
To say the words he truly feels;
And not the words of one who kneels.
The record shows I took the blows -
And did it my way!

Elvis Presley - Only You

Only you can to make all this wealth seem bright,
Only you can to make the darkness fright,
Only you and you alone can thrill me like you do,
And to fill my heart with love for only you.

Only you can to make all this change in me,
For it’s true - you are my destiny.
When you hold my hand I understand the magic that you do
You’re my dream come true, my one and only you.

Only you can to make all this change in me,
For, it’s true - you are my destiny.
When you hold my hand I understand the magic that you do

You’re my dream come true, my one and only you!

Damien Rice - I Cant Take My Eyes Off

And so it is
Just like you said it would be
Life goes easy on me
Most of the time
And so it is
The shorter story
No love, no glory
No hero in her sky

I can′t take my eyes off of you
I just can′t take my eyes off of you
I can′t take my eyes off of you
I can′t take my eyes off of you
I can′t take my eyes off of you
I can′t take my eyes...

And so it is
Just like you said it should be
We′ll both forget the breeze
Most...most of the time
And so it is
The colder water
The blower′s daughter
The pupil in denial

I can′t take my eyes off of you
I can′t take my eyes off of you
I can′t take my eyes off of you
I can′t take my eyes off of you
I can′t take my eyes off of you
I can′t take my eyes...

Did I say that I loathe you?
Did I say that I want to
Leave it all behind?

I can′t take my mind off of you
I can′t take my mind off of you
I can′t take my mind off of you
I can′t take my mind off of you
I can′t take my mind off of you
I can′t take my mind...
My mind...my mind...
′Til I find somebody new

Sleep, don′t weep, my sweet love

Those times that I was broke, and you stood strong
I think I found a place where I...

Sleep, don′t weep, my sweet love
Your face is all wet ′cause our days were rough
So do what you must do to fill that hole
Wear another shoe to comfort the soul
Those times that I was broke, and you stood strong
I think I found a place where I feel I will...

Sleep, don′t weep, my sweet love
My face is all wet ′cause my day was rough
So do what you must do to find yourself

Those times that I was broke, and you stood strong
I hope I find a place where I feel I belong

Sleep, don′t weep, my sweet love
My face is all wet ′cause my day was rough

Damien Rice - Older Chests

Older chests reveal themselves
Like a crack in a wall
Starting small, and grow in time
And we always seem to need the help
Of someone else
To mend that shelf
Too many books
Read me your favourite line

Papa went to other lands
And he found someone who understands
The ticking, and the western man′s need to cry
He came back the other day, you know
Some things in life may change
And some things
They stay the same

Like time, there′s always time
On my mind
So pass me by, I′ll be fine
Just give me time

Older gents sit on the fence
With their cap in hand
Looking grand
They watch their city change
Children scream, or so it seems,
Louder than before
Out of doors, and into stores with bigger names
Mama tried to wash their faces
But these kids they lost their graces
And daddy lost at the races too many times

She broke down the other day, yeah you know
Some things in life may change
But some things they stay the same

Like time, there′s always time
On my mind
So pass me by, I′ll be fine
Just give me time
Time, there′s always time
On my mind
Pass me by, I′ll be fine
Just give me time

I′m sure when I′m older I′ll know what that means
Cried when she should and she laughed when she could
Here′s to the man with his face in the mud
And an overcast play just taken away
From the lover′s in love at the centre of stage yeah
Loving is fine if you have plenty of time
For walking on stilts at the edge of your mind
Loving is good if your dick′s made of wood
And the dick left inside only half understood her
What makes her come and what makes her stay?
What make the animal run, run away yeah
What makes him stall, what makes him stand
And what shakes the elephant now
And what makes a man?
I don′t know, I don′t know, I don′t know
No I don′t know you any more
No, no, no, no...
I don′t know if I′m wrong
′Cause shes only just gone
Why the fuck is this day taking so long
I was a lover of time and once she was mine
I was a lover indeed, I was covered in weed
Cried when she should and she laughed when she could
Well closer to god is the one who′s in love
And I walk away cause I can
Too many options may kill a man
Loving is fine if it′s not in your mind
But I′ve fucked it up now, too many times
Loving is good if it′s not understood
Yeah, but I′m the professor
And feel that I should know
What makes her come and what makes her stay?
What make the animal run, run away and
What makes him tick apart from him prick
And the lonelier side of the jealousy stick
I don′t know, I don′t know, I don′t know
No I don′t know, I don′t know, I don′t know
No I don′t know, I don′t know, I don′t know
Hell I don′t know you any more
No, no, no no...
Well I don′t know if I′m wrong
′Cause she′s only just gone
Here′s to another relationship
Bombed by my excellent breed of gamete disease
I finished it off with some French wine and cheese
La fille danse
Quand elle joue avec moi
Et je pense que je l′aime des fois
Le silence, n′ose pas dis-donc
Quand on est ensemble
Mettre les mots
Sur la petite dodo

Damien Rice - Insane

Should I speak?
Should I bother shaking hands?
Am I weak If I leave it as it stands?
I′ve submerged
And I′ve surfaced with the blame
I guess I′m no good, I guess I′m insane

Should I go, if she calls out my name?
And if she bleeds, should I wipe up the stain?
And if I′m low, can I drown in this rain?
I guess I′m no good, I guess I′m insane

And I hate when you say
That I never fight for you
Sometimes you breathe
All over my scar
And you always end up
Closer than close
That′s where I give in

Should I confess
The actions of a hand
In my mind
I′ll betray you once again
Why should I climb?
What is there to gain?
This is no good
This is insane

And I hate when you say
That I never fight for you
Sometimes you breathe
All over my scar
And you always end up
Closer than close
That′s whenre I give in

You′re taking, you′re taking
You′re taking me down
You′re taking, you′re taking
You′re taking me down
And you always end up
Closer than close
That′s where I give in

Damien Rice - Accidental Babies

Well I held you like a lover
Happy hands and your elbow in the appropriate place

And we ignored our others, happy plans
For that delicate look upon your face

Our bodies moved and hardened
Hurting parts of your garden
With no room for a pardon
In a place where no one knows what we have done

Do you come
Together ever with him?
And is he dark enough?
Enough to see your light?
And do you brush your teeth before you kiss?
Do you miss my smell?
And is he bold enough to take you on?
Do you feel like you belong?
And does he drive you wild?
Or just mildly free?
What about me?

Well you held me like a lover
Sweaty hands
And my foot in the appropriate place

And we use cushions to cover
Happy glands
In the mild issue of our disgrace

Our minds pressed and guarded
While our flesh disregarded
The lack of space for the light-hearted
In the boom that beats our drum

Well I know I make you cry
And I know sometimes you wanna die
But do you really feel alive without me?
If so, be free
If not, leave him for me
Before one of us has accidental babies
For we are in love

Do you come
Together ever with him?
Is he dark enough?
Enough to see your light?
Do you brush your teeth before you kiss?
Do you miss my smell?
And is he bold enough to take you on?
Do you feel like you belong?
And does he drive you wild?
Or just mildly free?

What about me?
What about me?

Damien Rice - Then Go

Among the afflictions,
With which I′ve been marked,
None so pretentious, no,
And none quite so dark.
I get the feeling you′re bored with me,
Not through habit or frequency,
Did you mother have you easily?
And if there′s some place else that you would rather be;
Then go,
Then go,
Then go,
Then go.

Among the intentions,
Which have been sought,
Labelled and numbered,
But none of them bought.
I get the feeling you′re testing me,
You′re saturated in urgency,
And you stick your probe in further,
But you′re still not pleased,
And if there′s someplace else that you would rather be;
Then go,
Then go,
Then go,
Then go.

Then go,
Then go.

Then go, go

I would have lied for you,
I would have cried for you,
I crossed the line for you,
I would have died for you.

Damien Rice - The Animals Were Gone

Woke up and for the first time the animals were gone
It′s left this house empty now, not sure if I belong
Yesterday you asked me to write you a pleasant song
I′ll do my best now, but you′ve been gone for so long

The window′s open now and the winter settles in
We′ll call it Christmas when the adverts begin
I love your depression and I love your double chin
I love ′most everything that you bring to this offering

Oh I know that I left you in places of despair
Oh I know that I love you, so please throw down your hair
At night I trip without you, and hope I don′t wake up
′Cause waking up without you is like drinking from an empty cup

Woke up and for the first time the animals were gone
Our clocks are ticking now so before our time is gone
We could get a house and some boxes on the lawn
We could make babies and accidental songs

I know I′ve been a liar and I know I′ve been a fool
I hope we didn′t break yet, but I′m glad we broke the rules
My cave is deep now, yet your light is shining through
I cover my eyes, still all I see is you

Oh I know that I left you in places of despair
Oh I know that I love you, so please throw down your hair
At night I trip without you, and hope I don′t wake up
′Cause waking up without you is like drinking from an empty cup

Damien Rice - Coconut Skins

You can hold her hand
And show her how you cry
Explain to her your weakness
So she understands
And then roll over and die

You can brave decisions
Before you crumble up inside
Spend your time asking everyone else′s permission
Then run away and hide

Or you can sit on chimneys
Put some fire up your ass
No need to know what you′re doing or waiting for
But if anyone should ask
Tell them I′ve been licking coconut skins
And we′ve been hanging out
Tell them God just dropped by to forgive our sins
And relieve us our doubt
La la la la la la la...

Oh you can hold her eggs
But your basket has a hole
You can lie between her legs and go looking for
Tell her you′re searching for her soul
You can wait for ages
Watch your compost turn to coal
Time is contagious
Everybody′s getting old

So you can sit on chimneys
Put some fire up your ass
No need to know what you′re doing or looking for
But if anyone should ask
Tell them I′ve been cooking coconut skins
And we′ve been hanging out
Tell them God just dropped by to forgive our sins
And relieve us our doubt
La la la la la la la...

Damien Rice - Rootless Tree

What I want from you is empty your head
They say be true, don′t stay in your bed
We do what we need to be free
And it leans on me like a rootless tree

What I want from us is empty our minds
We fake the thoughts, and fracture the times
We go blind when we′ve needed to see
And this leans on me, like a rootless...

Fuck you, fuck you, fuck you
And all we′ve been through
I said leave it, leave it, leave it
There′s nothing in you
And did you hate me, hate me, hate me, hate me so good
That you just let me out, let me out, let me out
Of this hell when you′re around
Let me out, let me out, let me out
Hell when you′re around
Let me out, let me out, let me out

What I want from this
Is learn to let go
No not of you
Of all that′s been told
Killers re-invent and believe
And this leans on me, like a rootless...

Fuck you, fuck you, fuck you
And all we′ve been through
I said leave it, leave it, leave it
There′s nothing in you
And did you hate me, hate me, hate me, hate me so good
That you just let me out, let me out, let me out
Of this hell when you′re around
Let me out, let me out, let me out
Of this hell when you′re around
Let me out, let me out, let me out
Hell when you′re around
Let me out, let me out, let me out
Hell when you′re around
Let me out, let me out, let me out, let me out
Let me out, let me out, let me out, let me out
Let me out, let me out, let me out

Fuck you, fuck you, love you
And all we′ve been through
I said leave it, leave it, leave it
It′s nothing in you
And did you hate me, hate me, hate me, hate me so good
That you just let me out, let me out, let me out, let me out
Let me out, let me out, let me out, let me out
Let me out, let me out, let me out, let me out
Let me out, let me out, let me out

Let me out, let me out, let me out
Hell when you′re around

Let me out, let me out, let me out
Hell when you′re around

Let me out, let me out, let me out
Hell when you′re around

Damien Rice - Cold water

Cold, cold water surrounds me now
And all I′ve got is your hand
Lord, can you hear me now?
Lord, can you hear me now?
Lord, can you hear me now,
Or am I lost?
No one′s daughter allow me that
And I can′t let go of your hand
Lord, can you hear me now?
Lord, can you hear me now?
Lord, can you hear me now?
or am I lost?
oooo, I love you
DonГўв‚¬в„ўt you know I love you
And I always am
Hallelujah
Will you come with me?
Cold, cold water surrounds me now
And all I′ve got is your hand

Lord, can you hear me?
Ahh...

Am I lost with you?

Damien Rice - I Remember

I remember it well
The first time that I saw
Your head around the door
′Cause mine stopped working

I remember it well
There was wet in your hair
I was stood in the stairs
And time stopped moving

I want you hear tonight
I want you hear
′Cause I can′t believe what I found
I want you hear tonight
I want you hear
Nothing is taking me down, down, down...

I remember it well
Taxied out of a storm
To watch you perform
And my ships were sailing

I remember it well
I was stood in your line
And your mouth, your mouth, your mouth...

I want you hear tonight
I want you hear
′Cause I can′t believe what I found
I want you hear tonight
I want you hear
Nothing is taking me down, down, down...

Except you my love. Except you my love...

Come all ye lost
Dive into moss
I hope that my sanity covers the cost
To remove the stain of my love
Paper mach?

Come all ye reborn
Blow off my horn
I′m driving real hard
This is love, this is porn
God will forgive me
But I, I whip myself with scorn, scorn

I wanna hear what you have to say about me
Hear if you′re gonna live without me
I wanna hear what you want
I remember december
And I wanna hear what you have to say about me
Hear if you′re gonna live without me
I wanna hear what you want
What the hell do you want?

Damien Rice - The Blowers Daughter

And so it is
Just like you said it would be
Life goes easy on me
Most of the time
And so it is
The shorter story
No love, no glory
No hero in her sky

I can′t take my eyes off of you
I can′t take my eyes off you
I can′t take my eyes off of you
I can′t take my eyes off you
I can′t take my eyes off you
I can′t take my eyes...

And so it is
Just like you said it should be
We′ll both forget the breeze
Most of the time
And so it is
The colder water
The blower′s daughter
The pupil in denial

I can′t take my eyes off of you
I can′t take my eyes off you
I can′t take my eyes off of you
I can′t take my eyes off you
I can′t take my eyes off you
I can′t take my eyes...

Did I say that I loathe you?
Did I say that I want to
Leave it all behind?

I can′t take my mind off of you
I can′t take my mind off you
I can′t take my mind off of you
I can′t take my mind off you
I can′t take my mind off you
I can′t take my mind...
My mind...my mind...

Damien Rice - Grey Room

Well I′ve been here before
Sat on the floor in a grey grey room
Where I stay in all day
I don′t eat, but I play with this grey grey food

Desole, if someone is praying then I might break out,
Desole, even if I scream I can′t scream that loud

I′m all alone again
Crawling back home again
Stuck by the phone again

Well I′ve been here before
Sat on a floor in a grey grey mood
Where I stay up all night
And all that I write is a grey grey tune

So pray for me child, just for a while
That I might break out yeah
Pray for me child
Even a smile would do for now

Cause I′m all alone again
Crawling back home again
Stuck by the phone again

Have I still got you to be my open door
Have I still got you to be my sandy shore
Have I still got you to cross my bridge in this storm
Have I still got you to keep me warm

if I squeeze my grape, then I drink my wine
coz if I squeeze my grape, then I drink my wine
oh coz nothing is lost, it′s just frozen in frost,
and it′s opening time, there′s no-one in line

But I′ve still got me to be your open door,
I′ve still got me to be your sandy shore
I′ve still got me to cross your bridge in this storm
And I′ve still got me to keep you warm

Warmer than warm, yeah
Warmer than warm, yeah

Damien Rice - Silent Night

Silent night, broken night
All is fallen when you take your flight
I found some hate for you
Just for show
You found some love for me
Thinking I′d go
Don′t keep me from crying to sleep
Sleep in heavenly peace

Silent night, moonlit night
Nothing′s changed
Nothing is right
I should be stronger than weeping alone
You should be weaker than sending me home
I can′t stop you fighting to sleep
Sleep in heavely peace

Damien Rice - Prague

I pack my suit in a bag
I′m all dressed up for prague
I′m all dressed up with you
All dressed up for him too...
Prepare myself for a war
BeforeI even open up my door
BeforeI even look out
I′m pissing all of my bullets about...

Wrap myself in a bag
I′m all wrapped up in prague
I′m all wrapped up in you
I′m all wrapped up in him too

Prepare myself for a war
And I don′t know what i′m doing this for
Trying to let it all go
But how can I when you still don′t know?

I could wait for you
Like that hole in your boot
Waiting to be fixed
I could wait for you
What good would that do
But to leave me pricked?

Cheers darlin′
Here′s to you and your lover
...darling

Damien Rice - Volcano

Don′t hold yourself like that

You′ll hurt your knees

I kissed your mouth and back

But that′s all I need

Don′t build your world around volcanoes melt you down

What I am to you is not real

What I am to you you do not need

What I am to you is not what you mean to me

You give me miles and miles of mountains

And I′ll ask for the sea

Don′t throw yourself like that

In front of me

I kissed your mouth your back

Is that all you need?

Don′t drag my love around volcanoes melt me down

What I am to you is not real

What I am to you you do not need

What I am to you is not what you mean to me

You give me miles and miles of mountains

And I′ll ask for what I give to you

Is just what i′m going through

This is nothing new

No no just another phase of finding what I really need

Is what makes me bleed

And like a new disease she′s still too young to treat

Volcanoes melt me down

She′s still too young

I kissed your mouth

You do not need me

Damien Rice - Delicate

We might kiss when we are alone
When nobody′s watching
We might take it home
We might make out when nobody′s there
It′s not that we′re scared
It′s just that it′s delicate

So why do you fill my sorrow
With the words you′ve borrowed
From the only place you′ve know
And why do you sing Hallelujah
If it means nothing to you
Why do you sing with me at all?

We might live like never before
When there′s nothing to give
Well how can we ask for more
We might make love in some sacred place
The look on your face is delicate

So why do you fill my sorrow
With the words you′ve borrowed
From the only place you′ve know
And why do you sing Hallelujah
If it means nothing to you
Why do you sing with me at all?

Damien Rice - Amie

Nothing unusual, nothing strange
Close to nothing at all
The same old scenario, the same old rain
And there′s no explosions here
Then something unusual, something strange
Comes from nothing at all
I saw a spaceship fly by your window
Did you see it disappear?

Amie come sit on my wall
And read me the story of O
And tell it like you still believe
That the end of the century
Brings a change for you and me
Nothing unusual, nothing′s changed
Just a little older that′s all
You know when you′ve found it,
There′s something I′ve learned
′Cause you feel it when they take it away

Something unusual, something strange
Comes from nothing at all
But I′m not a miracle
And you′re not a saint
Just another soldier
On the road to nowhere

Amie come sit on my wall
And read me the story of O
And tell it like you still believe
That the end of the century
Brings a change for you and me

And Amie come sit on my wall
And read me the story of O
And tell it like you still believe
That the end of the century
Brings a change for you and me

She lives with an orange tree
The girl that does yoga
She picks the dead ones from the ground

And she gives

Without giving anything to me

Like a morning sun

Like a morning sun
Good good morning sunbr>
The girl that does yoga

Girl that does yoga

He lives in a little house
On the side of a little hill
Picks the litter from the ground
Litter little brother spills

He gives
I get
Without giving anything to me

And the dogs they run
And the dogs they
And the dogs they run
In the good good morning sun

Side of a little hill
Litter little brother spills
Side of a little hill

Oh and she′s always dressed in white
She′s like an angel, man
She burns my eyes
Oh and she turns
She pulls a smile
We drive her round
And she drives us wild
Oh and she moves like a little girl
I become a child, man
She moves my world
And she gets splashed in rain
And turns away
and leaves me standing

She lives with an orange tree
The girl that does yoga
Got a wolf to keep her warm
When he comes over

She gives
He gets
Without giving anything to see

And the day it ends
And the day it
And the day it ends
And there′s no need for me

The girls that does yoga
When we come over

Damien Rice - Cannonball

Still a little bit of your taste in my mouth
Still a little bit of you laced with my doubt
Still a little hard to say what′s going on

Still a little bit of your ghost your witness
Still a little BIT of your face I haven′t kissed
You step a little closer EACH DAY
Still I can′t SAY what′s going on

Stones taught me to fly
Love taught me to lie
Life taught me to die
So it′s not hard to fall
When you float like a cannonball

Still a little bit of your song in my ear
Still a little bit of your words I long to hear
You step a little closer TO ME
So close that I can′t see what′s going on

Stones taught me to fly
Love taught me to lie
Life taught me to die
So it′s not hard to fall
When you float like a cannon

Stones taught me to fly
Love taught me to cry
So come on courage!
Teach me to be shy
′Cause it′s not hard to fall
And I don′t WANNA scare her
It′s not hard to fall
And I don′t wanna lose
It′s not hard to grow
When you know that you just don′t know

Damien Rice - Elephant

This has got to die
This has got to stop
This has got to lie down
Someone else on top

You can keep me pinned
It′s easier to tease
But you can′t paint an elephant
Quite as good as she

And she may cry like a baby
And she may drive me Crazy
′Cause I am lately lonely

So why d′you have to lie?
I take it I′m your crutch
The pillow in your pillow case
It′s easier to touch

And when you think you′ve sinned
Do you fall upon your knees?
And do you sit within your picture?
Do you still forget the breeze?

And she may rise, if I sing you down
And she may wisely cling to the ground
Cause I′m lately horny
So why would she take me horny?

What′s the point of this song? Or even singing?
You′ve already gone, why am I clinging?
Well I could throw it out, and I could live without
And I could do it all for you
I could be strong
Tell me if you want me to lie
′Cause this has got to die

This has got to stop
This has got to lie down, down
With someone else on top

You can both keep me pinned
′Cause it′s easier to tease
But you can′t make me happy
Quite as good as me

Well you know that′s a lie

Damien Rice - 9 Crimes

Leave me out with the waste
This is not what I do
It′s the wrong kind of place
To be thinking of you
It′s the wrong time
For somebody new
It′s a small crime
And I′ve got no excuse

Is that alright?
Give my gun away when it′s loaded
Is that alright?
If you don′t shoot it how am I supposed to hold it
Is that alright?
Give my gun away when it′s loaded
Is that alright
Is that alright with you?

Give my gun away when it′s loaded

If you don′t shoot it how am I supposed to hold it
