Picking Up The Pieces - Paloma Faith

Music Video

Acoustic Version

Do you think of her

When you're with me?

Repeat the memories you made together

Whose face do you see?

Do you wish I was a bit more like her?

Am I too loud?

I play the clown

To cover up all these doubts

Perfect heart

She's flawless

She's the other woman

Shining in her splendor

You were lost

Now she's gone

And I'm picking up the pieces

I watch you cry

But you don't see that I'm the one by your side

'Cause she's gone

In her shadow is it me you see?

'Cause all that's left is you and I

And I'm picking up the pieces she left behind

I found a photograph behind the TV

You look so happy are you missing the way it used to be?

And I have changed this room around more often lately

It's clear that we

And these four walls

Still known as hers and yours

Perfect part

She's flawless

She's the other woman

Shining in her splendor

You were lost

Now she's gone

And I'm picking up the pieces

I watch you cry

But you don't see that I'm the one by your side

'Cause she's gone

In her shadow is it me you see?

'Cause all that's left is you and I

And I'm picking up the pieces she left behind

Are we liars in denial?

Are we smoke without the fire?

Tell me please is this worth it

I deserve it

'Cause she's gone

And I'm picking up the pieces

I watch you cry

But you don't see that I'm the one by your side

'Cause she's gone

In her shadow is it me you see?

'Cause all that's left is you and I

And I'm picking up the pieces

She left behind

I'm picking up the pieces

Of a broken heart

Who will save them?

Who will save them?

I'm picking up the pieces

Ooh, I'm picking up the pieces

Somebody save me

Somebody save me

Oh, oh, ooh, ooh.

My Summer Anthem So Far

• How We Love - Ingrid Michaelson

She smelled like cinnamon and winter clove

And sparked like firewood inside a stove

Wanted to ask her just to sit and stay

Instead he watched as she walked away

We hate the rain when it fills up our shoes

But how we love when it washes our cars

We love to love when it fills up the room

But when it leaves oh we're cursing the stars

• Coffee & Cigarattes - Michelle Featherstone

I thought that if I didn’t go and play

The sadness would get bored and go away

I thought that if I didn’t go astray

That all my pain would be in yesterday

But it’s true

I’m still blue

But I finally know what to do

I must quit, I must quit, you

• Payphone - Jayesslee (Maroon 5 cover)

I know it’s hard to remember

The people we used to be

It’s even harder to picture

That you’re not here next to me

• Both of Us - B.O.B ft. Taylor Swift

I wish I was strong enough to lift not one but both of us 

Someday I will be strong enough to lift not one but both of us

I can feel your pain, I can feel your struggle          

You just wanna live, but everything so low

• We Are Never Ever Ever Getting Back Together - Taylor Swift

I hate you, we broke up. You call me, I love you.

• I'm There Too - Michelle Featherston

I see myself in you

In everything you do

And when you're all alone at night

You know I am by your side

Cause I'm there too

I see your face in mine

And I know there'll come a time

When you will take my hand

And I will understand

That you're there too

• When You Find Me - Joshua Radin ft. Maria Taylor

My only weakness, is knowing your secrets

and holding them close, and hold them tight

I know the way to silently make you

smile with my eyes, when you're trying to fight

Can't you see that when I find you, I'll find me

Oh I need you to know today I'll wait for you always

Oh I need you to know today I'll wait for you always

Cause when I find you, I'll find me

• Copper Down - The Boy Who Trapped The Sun

And all that matters branded on your arm

So you don't forget how we first met

Suddenly I have this feeling

Tasting copper in my mouth

• Never Let Me Go - Lana Del Rey

If you love me hardcore, then don't walk away

It's a game boy, I don't wanna play

I just wanna be yours, like I always say

Never let me go

• Miles - Christina Perri

We made it out, and all the other people are asking how

This doesn’t even sound like truth to grow from a bruise

But one day we will realize how hard it was, how hard we tried

And how our hearts made it out alive

Kiss me on my shoulder, and tell me it’s not over

I promise to always come home to you

Remind me that I’m older to be brave, smart, sweet, and bolder

And don’t give up on what we’re trying to do

Don’t count the miles, count the “I love you”s

• Careful - Michelle Featherstone 

It's the things you do

That made me fall for you

And I can't help it

And it's every day

That I feel this way

So just don't stop it

I've made up my mind

That I'm gonna let you in

And I'm not afraid

But I have to say

This is gonna hurt

If it ever ends

But somehow you have shattered my defense

This is gonna hurt

If it ever starts

So promise you'll be careful with my heart

Without You - Lana Del Rey

Everything I want I have:
Money, notoriety and rivieras.
I even think I found God
In the flash bulbs of the pretty cameras,
Pretty cameras, pretty cameras.
Am I glamorous? Tell me am I glamorous?

Hello? Hello?
C-can you hear me?
I can be your china doll
If you want to see me fall.
Boy you’re so dope,
Your love is deadly.
Tell me life is beautiful,
They all think I have it all.
I’ve nothing without you.
All my dreams and all the lights mean
Nothing without you.

Summertime is nice and hot,
And my life is sweet like vanilla is.
Gold and silver line my heart
But burned into to my brain are these stolen images,
Stolen images, baby, stolen images.
Can you picture it
Babe the life we could’ve lived?

Hello? Hello?
C-can you hear me?
I can be your china doll
If you want to see me fall.
Boy you’re so dope,
Your love is deadly.
Tell me life is beautiful,
They all think I have it all.
I’ve nothing without you.
All my dreams and all the lights mean
Nothing without you.

We were two kids, just tryin’ to get out,
Live on the dark side of the American dream.
We would dance all night, play our music loud,
When we grew up nothing was what it seemed.

Hello? Hello?
Can you hear me?
I can be your china doll
If you want to see me fall.
Boy you’re so dope,
Your love is deadly.
Tell me life is beautiful,
They think that I have it all.
I’ve nothing without you.
All my dreams and all the lights mean
Nothing without you.

Hello? Hello?
Can you hear me?
I can be your china doll
If you want to see me fall.
Boy you’re so dope,
Your love is deadly.
Tell me life is beautiful,
They think that I have it all.
I’ve nothing without you.
All my dreams and all the lights mean
Nothing without you.

All my dreams and all the lights mean
Nothing if I can’t have you.

Best 3 of today

• Hurts - Stay

My whole life waiting for the right time

To tell you how I feel.

Know I try to tell you that I need you.

Here I am without you.

I feel so lost but what can I do?

'Cause I know this love seems real

But I don't know how to feel.

We say goodbye in the pouring rain

And I break down as you walk away.

Stay, stay.

'Cause all my life I felt this way

But I could never find the words to say

Stay, stay.

Alright, everything is alright

Since you came along

And before you

I had nowhere to run to

Nothing to hold on to

I came so close to giving it up.

And I wonder if you know

How it feels to let you go?

You say goodbye in the pouring rain

And I break down as you walk away.

Stay, stay.

'Cause all my life I felt this way

But I could never find the words to say

Stay, stay.

So you change your mind

And say you're mine.

Don't leave tonight

Stay.

Say goodbye in the pouring rain

And I break down as you walk away.

Stay, stay.

'Cause all my life I felt this way

But I could never find the words to say

Stay, stay.

Stay with me, stay with me,

Stay with me, stay with me,

Stay, stay, stay, stay with me.

• I Won't Give Up - Jason Mraz

When I look into your eyes

It's like watching the night sky

Or a beautiful sunrise

There's so much they hold

And just like them old stars

I see that you've come so far

To be right where you are

How old is your soul?

I won't give up on us

Even if the skies get rough

I'm giving you all my love

I'm still looking up

And when you're needing your space

To do some navigating

I'll be here patiently waiting

To see what you find

'Cause even the stars they burn

Some even fall to the earth

We've got a lot to learn

God knows we're worth it

No, I won't give up

I don't wanna be someone who walks away so easily

I'm here to stay and make the difference that I can make

Our differences they do a lot to teach us how to use

The tools and gifts we got yeah, we got a lot at stake

And in the end, you're still my friend at least we did intend

For us to work we didn't break, we didn't burn

We had to learn how to bend without the world caving in

I had to learn what I've got, and what I'm not

And who I am

I won't give up on us

Even if the skies get rough

I'm giving you all my love

I'm still looking up

Still looking up.

I won't give up on us (no I'm not giving up)

God knows I'm tough, he knows (I am tough, I am loved)

We've got a lot to learn (we're alive, we are loved)

God knows we're worth it (and we're worth it)

I won't give up on us

Even if the skies get rough

I'm giving you all my love

I'm still looking up

• I Won't Let You Go - James Morrison

When it's black

You won't let go but you still keep on falling down

Remember how you save me now from all of my wrongs

Yeah

If there's love just feel it

And if there's life we'll see it

This is no time to be alone, alone yeah

I won't let you go

Say those words

Say those words like there's nothing else

Close your eyes and you might believe

That there is some way out

Yeah

Open up

Open up your heart to me now

Let it all come pouring out

There's nothing I can't take

And if there's love just feel it

And if there's life we'll see it

This is no time to be alone, alone yeah

(Won't let you go)

(Won't let you go)

And if you feel the fading of the light

And you're too weak to carry on the fight

And all your friends that you count on have disappeared

And if there's life we'll see it

This is no time to be alone, alone yeah

Christina Perri - A Thousand Years

Heart beats fast
Colors and promises
How to be brave
How can I love when I'm afraid to fall
But watching you stand alone
All of my doubt suddenly goes away somehow

One step closer

I have died everyday waiting for you
Darling don't be afraid I have loved you
For a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more

Time stands still
Beauty in all she is
I will be brave
I will not let anything take away
What's standing in front of me
Every breath
Every hour has come to this

One step closer

I have died everyday waiting for you
Darling don't be afraid I have loved you
For a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more

And all along I believed I would find you
Time has brought your heart to me
I have loved you for a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more

One step closer
One step closer

I have died everyday waiting for you
Darling don't be afraid I have loved you
For a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more

And all along I believed I would find you
Time has brought your heart to me
I have loved you for a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more

Marry You Dance!

Or is it the dancing juice?

Who cares baby,

I think I wanna marry you!

 

LOL! I found this is sooooo ultimate funny and cute.

Galau of the week!

1. Arms - Christina Perri
2. Run Forward - Audrey Assad
3. A Thousand Years - Christina Perri
4. The Book of Love - Peter Gabriel
5. Water Runs Dry - Boyce Avenue

Boyz II Men - Water Runs Dry (Boyce Avenue acoustic cover) on iTunes

We don't even talk anymore
And we don't even know what we argue about
Don't even say I love you no more
Cause sayin' how we feel is no longer allowed
Some people will work things out
And some just don't know how to change
Let's don't wait till the water runs dry
We might watch our whole lives pass us by
Let's don't wait till the water runs dry
We'll make the biggest mistake of our lives
Don't do it baby

Now they can see the tears in our eyes
But we deny the pain that lies deep in our hearts
Well maybe that's a pain we can't hide
Cause everybody knows that we're both torn apart
Why do we hurt each other
Why do we push love away

Let's don't wait till the water runs dry
We might watch our whole lives pass us by
Let's don't wait till the water runs dry
We'll make the biggest mistake of our lives
Don't do it baby

3 Doors Down - Here Without You (Boyce Avenue acoustic cover) on iTunes

A hundred days had made me older
since the last time that I've saw your pretty face
A thousand lights had made me colder
and I don’t think I can look at this the same
But all the miles had separate
They disappear now when I’m dreaming of your face

I’m here without you baby
but your still on my lonely mind
I think about you baby
and I dream about you all the time
I’m here without you baby
but your still with me in my dreams
And tonight it’s only you and me

The miles just keep rollin
as the people either way to say hello
I've heard this life is overrated
but I hope that it gets better as we go

I’m here without you baby
but your still on my lonely mind
I think about you baby
and I dream about you all the time
I’m here without you baby
but your still with me in my dreams
And tonight girl it’s only you and me

Everything I know,
and anywhere I go
it gets hard but it won’t take away my love
And when the last one falls,
when it’s all said and done
it get hard but it won’t take away my love

I’m here without you baby
but your still on my lonely mind
I think about you baby
and I dream about you all the time
I’m here without you baby
but your still with me in my dreams
And tonight girl it’s only you and me

Red's current favorite song

meskipun aku di surga mungkin aku tak bahagia
bahagiaku tak sempurna bila itu tanpamu

lama sudah kau menemani langkah kaki di sepanjang
perjalanan hidup penuh cerita
kau adalah bagian hidupku dan akupun menjadi bagian
dalam hidupmu yang tak terpisah

kau bagaikan angin di bawah sayapku
sendiri aku tak bisa seimbang
apa jadinya bila kau tak di sisi

meskipun aku di surga mungkin aku tak bahagia
bahagiaku tak sempurna bila itu tanpamu
aku ingin kau menjadi bidadariku di sana
tempat terakhir melabuhkan hidup di keabadian

bila nanti aku kehilangan, mungkin itu hanya sesaat
karena ku yakin kita kan bertemu lagi

Not now, maybe someday we will.

Plain White T's - 1, 2, 3, 4

1-2-1-2-3-4
Give me more loving than I’ve ever had
Make me feel better when I’m feeling sad
Tell me I’m special even though I know I’m not
Make me feel good when I hurt so bad
Barely getting mad

I’m so glad I found you
I love being around you
You make it easy
Its as easy as 1-2-1-2-3-4

There’s only one thing
To Do
Three words
For you
(I love you) I love you
There’s only one way to say
Those three words
That’s what I’ll do
(I love you) I love you

Give me more loving from the very start
Piece me back together when I fall apart
Tell me things you never even tell your closest friends
Make me feel good when I hurt so bad
You’re the best that I’ve had

And I’m so glad I found you
I love being around you
You make it easy
It’s easy as 1-2-1-2-3-4

There’s only one thing
To Do
Three words
For you
(I love you) I love you
There’s only one way to say
Those three words
That’s what I’ll do
(I love you) I love you
(I love you) I love you
You make it easy
It’s easy as 1 2 1 2 3 4

There’s only one thing
To Do
Three words
For you
(I love you) I love you
There’s only one way to say
Those three words
That’s what I’ll do
(I love you) I love you
(I love you) I love you
1-2-3-4
I love you
(I love you)
I love you

A song for Red.

The Band Perry - If I Die Young

If I die young, bury me in satin
Lay me down on a, bed of roses
Sink me in the river, at dawn
Send me away with the words of a love song

Uh oh, uh oh

Lord make me a rainbow, I'll shine down on my mother
She'll know I'm safe with you when she stands under my colors, oh and
Life ain't always what you think it ought to be, no
Ain't even grey, but she buries her baby

The sharp knife of a short life, well
I've had, just enough time

If I die young, bury me in satin
Lay me down on a, bed of roses
Sink me in the river, at dawn
Send me away with the words of a love song

The sharp knife of a short life, well
I've had, just enough time

And I'll be wearing white, when I come into your kingdom
I'm as green as the ring on my little, cold finger, I've
Never known the lovin' of a man
But it sure felt nice when he was holdin' my hand there's a boy here in town says he'll love me forever
Who would have thought forever could be severed by
The sharp knife of a short life, well,
I've had, just enough time

So put on your best boys and I'll wear my pearls
What I never did is done

A penny for my thoughts, oh no, I'll sell them for a dollar
They're worth so much more after I'm a goner
And maybe then you'll hear the words I been singin'
Funny when you're dead how people start listenin'

If I die young, bury me in satin
Lay me down on a, bed of roses
Sink me in the river, at dawn
Send me away with the words of a love song

Uh oh (uh, oh)
The ballad of a dove (uh, oh)
Go with peace and love
Gather up your tears, keep 'em in your pocket
Save them for a time when you're really gonna need 'em, oh
The sharp knife of a short life, well
I've had just enough time

So put on your best boys, and I'll wear my pearls

Demi Lovato - Skyscraper

Skies are crying,
I am watching,
Catching teardrops in my hands.
Only silence, as it's ending,
Like we never had a chance.
Do you have to make me feel
Like there's nothing left of me?

You can take everything I have,
You can break everything I am,
Like I'm made of glass,
Like I'm made of paper.
Go on and try to tear me down.
I will be rising from the ground,
Like a skyscraper,
Like a skyscraper.

As the smoke clears,
I awaken,
And untangle you from me.
Would it make you feel better
To watch me, while I bleed?
All my windows still are broken,
But I'm standing on my feet.

You can take everything I have,
You can break everything I am,
Like I'm made of glass,
Like I'm made of paper.
Go on and try to tear me down.
I will be rising from the ground,
Like a skyscraper,
Like a skyscraper.

Go run, run, run.
I'm gonna stay right here,
Watch you disappear.
Yeah, ohh.
Go run, run, run.
Yeah, it's a long way down,
But I am closer to the clouds,
Up here.

You can take everything I have,
You can break everything I am,
Like I'm made of glass,
Like I'm made of paper.

Ohhh

Go on and try to tear me down.
I will be rising from the ground,
Like a skyscraper,
Like a skyscraper.
(Like a skyscraper)
Like a skyscraper,
Like a skyscraper.
