So Far Away – Dire Straits

 
　
 
So Far Away – Dire Straits **
 
 
　Here I am again in this mean old town
　And you’re so far away from me
　And where are you when the sun goes down
　You’re so far away from me
 　
　So far away from me
　So far I just can’t see
　So far away from me
　You’re so far away from me
 　
　I’m tired of being in love and being all alone
　When you’re so far away from me
　I’m tired of making out on the telephone
　And you’re so far away from me
 　
　So far away from me
　So far I just can’t see
　So far away from me
　You’re so far away from me
 
 　
　I get so tired when I have to explain
　When you’re so far away from me
　See you been in the sun and I’ve been in the rain
　And you’re so far away from me
 　
　So far away from me
　So far I just can’t see
　So far away from me
　You’re so far away from me

　As far as my eyes can see
 　
　There are shadows approaching me
 　
　And to those I left behind
　I wanted you to know
　You’ve always shared my deepest thoughts
　You follow where I go
 　
　And oh….
　 when I’m old and wise
　Bitter words mean little to me
　Autumn winds will blow right through me
　And someday in the midst of time
　When they asked me if I knew you
　I’d smile and say you were a friend of mine
　And the sadness would be lifted from my eyes
　Oh… when I’m old and wise
 　
　As far as my eyes can see
 　
　There are shadows surrounding me
 　
　And to those I leave behind
　I want you all to know
　You’ve always shared my darkest hours
　I’ll miss you when I go
 　
　And oh,….
　when I’m old and wise
　Heavy words that tossed and blew me
　Like autumn winds will blow right through me
　And someday in the midst of time
　When they ask you if you knew me
　Remember that you were a friend of mine
　As the final curtain falls before my eyes
 　
　Oh.. when I’m old and wise
 　
　As far as my eyes can see

The Way – Fastball **
 　
 　
　
　They made up their minds
　And they started packing
　They left before the sun came up that day
　An exit to .. eternal summer slacking
　But where were they going without ever knowing the way?
 　　
　They drank up the wine
　And they got to talking
　They now had more important things to say
　And when the car broke down, they started walking
　Where were they going without ever knowing the way?
 　　
　Anyone could see the road that they walk on is paved in gold
　And it’s always summer, they’ll never get cold
　They’ll never get hungry,
　They’ll never get old and gray
 　　
　You can see their shadows wandering off somewhere
　They won’t make it home but they really don’t care
　They wanted the highway, they’re happy there today,
　today …
 　　
　The children woke up
　And they couldn’t find ’em
　They left before the sun came up that day
　They just drove off and left it all behind ’em
　But where were they going without ever knowing the way?

White Flag – Dido *
 
 　
　
　I know you think that I shouldn’t still love you or tell you that.
　But if I didn’t say it, well I’d still have felt it ..
　where’s the sense in that?
　I promise I’m not trying to make your life harder or return to where we were
 　
　But I will go down with this ship
　And I won’t put my hands up .. and surrender
　There will be no white flag above my door
　I’m in love and alway…s will be
 　
　I know I left too much mess and destruction to come back again
　And I caused nothing but trouble.. I under..stand if you can’t talk to me again
　And if you live by the rules of “it’s over” then I’m sure that makes sense
 　
　And I will go down with this ship
　And I won’t put my hands up.. and surrender
　There will be no white flag above my door
　I’m in love.. and alway..s will be
 　
　And when we meet
　Which I’m sure we will
　All that was there..
　Will be there still
　I’ll let it pass
　And hold my tongue
　And you will think
　That I’ve moved on….
 　
　I will go down with this ship
　And I won’t put my hands up and surrender
　There will be no white flag above my door
　I’m in love, and alway..s will be
 　
　And I will go down with this ship
　And I won’t put my hands up and surrender
　There will be no white flag above my door
　I’m in love and alway..s will be
 　
　I will go down with this ship
　And I won’t put my hands up and surrender
　There will be no white flag above my door
　I’m in love and alway..s will be

The Reason – Hoobastank **
 

　I’m not a perfect person
　As many things I wish I didn’t do
　But I continue learning
　I never meant to do those things to you
　And so I have to say before I go

　That I just want you to know
　
　I’ve found a reason for me
　To change who I used to be
　A reason to start over new
　and the reason is you
　
　I’m sorry that I hurt you
　It’s something I must live with everyday
　And all the pain I put you through
　I wish that I could take it all away
　And be the one who catches all your tears
　
　That’s why I need you to hear
　
　I’ve found a reason for me
　To change who I used to be
　A reason to start over new
　and the reason is You
　and the reason is You
　and the reason is You
　and the reason is You
……..
　
　I’m not a perfect person
　I never meant to do those things to you
　And so I have to say before I go

　That I just want you to know
　
　I’ve found a reason for me
　To change who I used to be
　A reason to start over new
　and the reason is you
　
　I’ve found a reason to show
　A side of me you didn’t know
　A reason for all that I do
　And the reason is you
