Thirsty Merc - All My Life

Today, I left my house and I started walking
Barefooted out to the water,
My eyes won't sleep.

And I walked out to the bridge,
Where I once had met you.
I could feel your footsteps,
Under my feet.

But now there's nothing I can do,

All my life.
I've waited here for you,
To make my dreams come true.
The force to get me through.

All my life.
Like waves upon the sand,
the ocean meets dry land.
My heart is in your hands.
Yeah.

I know,
I must be crazy or superstitious
But I swear I thought that maybe,
You'd be here.

But now, i look around your in all my senses
But it breaks my heart to see the view so clear.
You say you only needed time
But time has been so cruel
And there's nothing i can do.

All my life.
I've waited here for you.
To make my dreams come true.
The force to get me through.

All my life.
Like waves upon the sand.
The ocean meets dry land.
My heart is in your hands.
Yeah.

All my life
I've waited here for you.
To make my dreams come true
A force to get me through.

All my life.
Like waves upon the sand.
The ocean meets dry land.
My heart is in your hands.

All my life.
I've waited here for you
To make my dreams come true.
A force to get my through.

All my life.
I waited for you.
All my life.

五月天 - 你不是真正的快樂

人 群中 哭著
你隻想變成透明的顏色
你再也不會夢 或痛 或心動了
你已經決定了 你已經決定了

你 靜靜 忍著
緊緊把昨天在拳心握著
而回憶越是甜 就是 越傷人了
越是在 手心留下 密密麻麻 深深淺淺 的刀割

你不是真正的快樂 你的笑隻是你穿的保護色
你決定不恨了 也決定不愛了
把你的靈魂關在永遠鎖上的軀殼

這 世界 笑了
於是你合群的一起笑了
當生存是規則 不是 你的選擇
於是你 含著眼淚 飄飄蕩蕩 跌跌撞撞 的走著

你不是真正的快樂 你的笑隻是你穿的保護色
你決定不恨了 也決定不愛了
把你的靈魂關在永遠鎖上的軀殼

你不是真正的快樂 你的傷從不肯完全的愈合
我站在你左側 卻像隔著銀河
難道就真的抱著遺憾一直到老了 然后才后悔著

你不是真正的快樂 你的笑隻是你穿的保護色
你決定不恨了 也決定不愛了
把你的靈魂關在永遠鎖上的軀殼

你不是真正的快樂 你的傷從不肯完全的愈合
我站在你左側 卻像隔著銀河
難道就真的抱著遺憾一直到老了

你值得真正的快樂 你應該脫下你穿的保護色
為什麼失去了 還要被懲罰呢
能不能就讓 悲傷全部 結束在此刻 重新開始活著

The Script - For the First Time

She's all laid up in bed with a broken heart,
While I'm drinking jack all alone in my local bar,
And we don't know how,
How we got into this mad situation,
Only doing things out frustration,

Trying to make it work but man these times are hard,

She needs me now but I can't seem to find a time,
I've got a new job now on the unemployment line,
And we don't know how,
How we got into this mess
Is it God's test,
Someone help us 'cause we're doing our best,

Trying to make it work but man these times are hard

But we're gonna start by
Drinking old cheap bottles of wine,
Sit talking up all night,
Saying things we haven't for a while
A while yea
We're smiling but we're close tears,
Even after all these years,
We just now got the feeling that we're meeting for the first time

Oooooo
[few times]

She's in line at the door
With her head held high
While I just lost my job but
Didn't lose my flight

But we both know how,
How we're gonna make it work when it hurts,
When you pick yourself up,
You get kicked to the dirt,

Trying to make it work but,
Man these times are hard,

But we're gonna start by,
Drinking old cheap bottles of wine,
Sit talking up all night,

Doing things we haven't for a while,
A while yea,
We're smiling but we're close to tears,
Even after all these years,
We just now got the feeling that we're meeting for the first time.

Ooooo
[few times]

Yeah.....
Drinking old cheap bottles of wine,
Sit talking up all night,
Saying thing we haven't for a while,
We're smiling but we're close to tears,
Even after all these years,
We just now got the feeling that we're meeting, for the first time

(ooooo....), yeaahh for the first time,
(ooooo....), oh for the first time,
Yeah for the first time,
(Just now got the feeling that we're meeting...
For the first time)

[x4]
Oh these times are hard,
Yeah they're making us crazy
Don't give up on me baby
