the winner takes it all

I don’t wanna talk
about the things we’ve gone through
though it’s hurting me
now it’s history
I’ve played all my cards
and that’s what you’ve done too
nothing more to say
no more ace to play

The winner takes it all
the loser standing small
beside the victory
that’s her destiny

I was in your arms
thinking I belonged there
I figured it made sense
building me a fence
building me a home
thinking I’d be strong there
but I was a fool
playing by the rules

The gods may throw a dice
their minds as cold as ice
and someone way down here
loses someone dear
the winner takes it all
the loser has to fall
it’s simple and it’s plain
why should I complain

But tell me does she kiss
like I used to kiss you
does it feel the same
when she calls your name
somewhere deep inside
you must know I miss you
but what can I say
rules must be obeyed

The judges will decide
the likes of me abide
spectators of the show
always staying low
the game is on again
a lover or a friend
a big thing or a small
the winner takes it all

I don’t wanna talk
if it makes you feel sad
and I understand
you’ve come to shake my hand
I apologize
if it makes you feel bad
seeing me so tense
no self-confidence

But you see
the winner takes it all

Turpentine

I watch you grow away from me in photographs
And memories like spies
And salt betrays my eyes again
I started losing sleep and gaining weight
And wishing I was was ten again
So I could be your friend again

These days we go to waste like wine
That's turned to turpentine
It's six AM and I'm all messed up
I didn't maen to waste your time
So I'll fall back in line
But I'm warning you we're growing up

I heard you found some pretty words to say
You found your little game to play
and there's no one allowed in
Then just when we believe we could be great
Reality it permeates
And conquers from within again

These days we go to waste like wine
That's turned to turpentine
It's six AM and I'm all messed up
I didn't maen to waste your time
So I'll fall back in line
But I'm warning you we're growing up

We're OK I know we're OK
These days we go to waste like wine
That's turned to turpentine
It's six AM and I'm all messed up
I didn't maen to waste your time
So I'll fall back in line
But I'm warning you we're growing up

Can’t Sleep at Night by Susan Tedeschi



Can’t Sleep at Night

I’ve got the blues goin’ round in my bed
I’ve got the blues goin’ round in my head
Lord, though I try and I try
Oh I knew it wasn’t right
Why can’t I sleep at night

Where did I mess up
Where did I go wrong
I ask these things I’ll never know
As I lay awake goin’ round and round
I keep singing the same old song

Oh I try and I try
Oh I knew it wasn’t right
So why can’t I sleep at night
Oh why can’t I sleep at night

If I can only dream
What will my story be
Would you be holdin me
And when I close my eyes
Are you by my side
Lord have I realised
Oh, that you’re my everything, everything, oh

I got the blues goin’ round in my head
I got the blues goin’ round in my bed
Oh I try and I try
Oh I try and I try
Oh I try and I try
Why can’t I sleep at night
Why can’t I sleep, why can’t I sleep at night….

Ooh yes, oh yes…

Lay All Your Love On Me

"Lay All Your Love On Me"

I wasn't jealous before we met
Now every man that I see is a potential threat
And I'm possessive, it isn't nice
You've heard me saying that smoking was my only vice
But now it isn't true
Now everything is new
And all I've learned
Has overturned
I beg of you


Don't go wasting your emotion
Lay all your love on me

It was like shooting a sitting duck
A little small talk, a smile and baby I was stuck
I still don't know what you've done with me
A grown-up woman should never fall so easily
I feel a kind of fear
When I don't have you near
Unsatisfied
I skip my pride
I beg you dear


Don't go wasting your emotion
Lay all your love on me


Don't go sharing your devotion
Lay all your love on me


I've had a few little love affairs
They didn't last very long and they've been pretty scarce


I used to think that was sensible
It makes the truth even more incomprehensible


'Cause everything is new
And everything is you
And all I've learned
Has overturned
What can I do?


Don't go wasting your emotion
Lay all your love on me
Don't go sharing your devotion
Lay all your love on me


Don't go wasting your emotion
Lay all your love on me
Don't go sharing your devotion
Lay all your love on me

All things must pass



Sunrise doesnt last all morning
A cloudburst doesnt last all day
Seems my love is up and has left you with no warning
Its not always going to be this grey

All things must pass
All things must pass away

Sunset doesnt last all evening
A mind can blow those clouds away
After all this, my love is up and must be leaving
Its not always going to be this grey

All things must pass
All things must pass away
All things must pass
None of lifes strings can last
So, I must be on my way
And face another day

Now the darkness only stays the night-time
In the morning it will fade away
Daylight is good at arriving at the right time
Its not always going to be this grey

All things must pass
All things must pass away
All things must pass
All things must pass away

You are so beautiful

You are so beautiful to me
You are so beautiful to me
Can't you see
Your everything I hoped for
Your everything I need
You are so beautiful to me

Such joy and happiness you bring
Such joy and happiness you bring
Like a dream
A guiding light that shines in the night
Heavens gift to me
You are so beautiful to me


Ao amores em geral...sejam eles correspondidos ou não
e especialmente aquela miuda especial...ela sabe bem quem é
