We were never meant to be

Love Gabrielle and love this song!!

Knew the signs wasn’t right 
I was stupid, for a while 
Swept away, by you 
And now I feel like a fool 


So confused 
My heart’s bruised 
Was I ever loved by you? 
Out of reach, so far 
I never had your heart 
Out of reach, couldn’t see 
We were never met to be 

Catch myself, from despair 
I could drown if I stay here 
Keeping busy, everyday 
I know I will be ok 

But I’m 
So confused 
My heart’s bruised 
Was I ever loved by you? 
Out of reach, so far 
I never had your heart 
Out of reach, couldn’t see 
We were never met to be 
So much hurt, so much pain 
Takes a while to regain 
What is lost inside 
And I hope that in time 
You’ll be out of my mind 
I’ll be over you 

And know I’m 
So confused 
My heart’s bruised 
Was I ever loved by you? 
Out of reach, so far 
I never had your heart 
Out of reach, couldn’t see 
We were never met to be 
Out of reach, so far, 
You never gave your heart 
In my reach, I can see 
There’s a life out there for me 

The award for the best liar goes to you

How about a round of applause
A standing ovation

You look so dumb right now
Standing outside my house
Trying to apologize
You're so ugly when you cry
Please, just cut it out

Don't tell me you're sorry 'cause you're not
Baby when I know you're only sorry you got caught
But you put on quite a show
Really had me going
But now it's time to go
Curtain's finally closing
That was quite a show
Very entertaining
But it's over now 
Go on and take a bow

Grab your clothes and get gone 
You better hurry up
Before the sprinklers come on 
Talking' bout'
Girl, I love you, you're the one
This just looks like a re-run
Please, what else is on 

Oh, And the award for
The best liar goes to you 
For making me believe 
That you could be faithful to me
Let's hear your speech

How about a round of applause
A standing ovation

But you put on quite a show
Really had me going
Now it's time to go
Curtain's finally closing
That was quite a show
Very entertaining
But it's over now
Go on and take a bow
But it's over now 

Happy people keep the world turning

Let me see you and your partner stroke 

I'll stand by you, won't let nobody hurt you

Oh, Why You Look So Sad?
Tears are in your eyes
Come on and come to me now
Don't be ashamed to cry
Let me see you through
Cuz I've seen the dark side too
When the night falls on you
You don't know what to do
Nothing you confess
Could make me love you less

I'll stand by you
I'll stand by you
Won't let nobody hurt you
I'll stand by you

So if you're mad, get mad
Don't hold it all inside
Come on and talk to me now
Hey, what you got to hide? 
I get angry too
Well I'm a lot like you
When you're standing at the crossroads
And don't know which path to choose
Let me come along
Cuz even if you're wrong

I'll stand by you
I'll stand by you
Won't let nobody hurt you
I'll stand by you
Take me in, into your darkest hour
And I'll never desert you
I'll stand by you

And when...
When the night falls on you, baby
You're feeling all alone
You won't be on your own

I'll stand by you
I'll stand by you
Won't let nobody hurt you

I'll stand by you
Take me in, into your darkest hour
And I'll never desert you
I'll stand by you



I am frightened but I'm ready to learn of the power of love

I absolutely love this song! Actually wish I had a good enough singing voice to be able to sing it. 


The whispers in the morning
Of lovers sleeping tight
Are rolling like thunder now
As I look in your eyes
I hold on to your body
And feel each move you make
Your voice is warm and tender
A love that I could not forsake

'Cause I am your lady
And you are my man
Whenever you reach for me
I'll do all that I can

Lost is how I'm feeling, lying in your arms
When the world outside's too
Much to take
That all ends when I'm with you
Even though there may be times
It seems I'm far away
Never wonder where I am
'Cause I am always by your side

'Cause I am your lady
And you are my man
Whenever you reach for me
I'll do all that I can

We're heading for something
Somewhere I've never been
Sometimes I am frightened
But I'm ready to learn
Of the power of love

The sound of your heart beating
Made it clear
Suddenly the feeling that I can't go on
Is light years away

'Cause I am your lady
And you are my man
Whenever you reach for me
I'll do all that I can

We're heading for something
Somewhere I've never been
Sometimes I am frightened
But I'm ready to learn
Of the power of love

Tough times

It's like I am in the deep end and have forgotten to swim

I am in a dark tunnel and can't find the light switch

Everything that helped me through before seems to have disappeared. The road is long and parts are familiar but other parts feel unknown.

Men

Sometimes you fall out of love because you fell in love with the person you thought they were and not who they actually are

The hardest thing in life is letting go of something you thought was real

In fairness to men they are so clueless, I'm sure that most of the time they don't mean to break your heart, they are naturally destructive. And even more so, half the time they don't realise the damage they caused

Never forget that God hasn't finished with me yet

Amazing song, was definitely my most played song when it first came out!

[2Pac]
Uhh,
Hit them with a lil' ghetto gospel

Those who wish to follow me 
( My ghetto gospel )
I welcome with my hands
And the red sun sinks at last into the hills of gold
And peace to this young warrior without the sound of guns
If I could recollect before my hood days
I'd sit and reminisce, thinkin a bliss of the good days
I stop and stare at the younger, my heart goes to'em 
They tested, it was stress that they under 
an' now a days, things changed 
Everyone's ashamed of the youth 'cause the truth looks strange
And for me it's reversed, we left 'em a world thats cursed, and it hurts
cause any day they'll push the button 
and all condemned like Malcom x and Bobby Hunton, die for nothin' 
Don't it make ya get teary, the world looks dreary 
but when you wipe your eyes, see it clearly
theres no need for you to fear me
if you take the time to hear me, maybe you can learn to cheer me 
it aint about black or white, 'cause we're human 
I hope we see the light before its ruined 
my ghetto gospel 


Those who wish to follow me 
(Ghetto Gospel)
I welcome with my hands
And the red sun sinks at last into the hills of gold
And peace to this young warrior without the sound of guns
Tell me do you see that old lady, ain't it sad
Living out a bags, but she's glad for the little things she has 
And over there there's a lady, crack got her crazy
Guess she's givin' birth to a baby 
I don't trip and let it fade me, from out of the frying pan, we jump into another form of slavery.
Even now i get discouraged
Wonder if they take it all back would I still keep the courage?
I refuse to be a role model 
I set goals, take control, drink out my own bottle (own bottle)
I make mistakes, but learn from every one
And when its said and done 
I bet this brotha be a better one
If I upset you, don't stress
Never forget, that God hasn't finished with me yet
I feel his hand on my brain 
When I write rhymes, I go blind, and let the lord do his thang
But am I less holy
'cause I choose to puff a blunt and drink a beer with my homies 
Before we find world peace 
We gotta find peace in that war on the streets
My ghetto gospel
Those who wish to follow me 
(Yeah, Ghetto Gospel)
I welcome with my hands
And the red sun sinks at last into the hills of gold
And peace to this young warrior without the sound of guns

Lord can you hear me speak!!
To pay the price of bein' hellbound...

As you try that bit harder, getting closer to the life you're imagining

So, is this how it goes?
Think you’ve come this far with nothing to show,
That ain’t so,
No, you don’t see where you are,
And if you don’t look back you’ll never know,

Cos you think that you’ve been living, just treading water,
And waiting in the wings for the show to begin,
But I always see you searching,
As you try that bit harder,
Getting closer, oh yeah, to the life you’re imagining,

(I just know you’re life’s gonna change)
Maybe not today, maybe not today,
Someday soon you’ll be alright,
(I just know your life’s gonna change)
Don’t turn the other way, turn the other way,
Feels like luck is on your side,

(Just wanna live) no worries, no worries,
(Don’t wanna die) no worries, no worries
(Fight through the low’s) say it for me, say it for me,
(And take all the high’s) we all need somebody,
(Yeah you can sink) no worries, no worries
(Or you can swim) no worries, no worries,
(Or walk on out) say it for me, say it for me,
(Or jump right in) we all need somebody,

So, baby keep drifting on,
Your endeavours, ain’t just, selfless wasted time,
Seek & find, yeah,
You’re not that far from,
What you’ve hoped and wished for all along

I just know your life’s gonna change
Say it for me, say it for me,
We all need somebody

When will my reflection show, who I am inside

Look at me you may think you see
Who I really am but you'll never know me
Every day it's as if I play a part
Now I see if I wear a mask
I can fool the world but I cannot fool my heart

Who is that girl I see staring straight back at me?
When will my reflection show who I am inside?

I am now in a world where I
Have to hide my heart and what I believe in
But somehow I will show the world
What's inside my heart and be loved for who I am

Who is that girl I see staring straight back at me?
Why is my reflection someone I don't know?

Must I pretend that I'm someone else for all time?
When will my reflection show who I am inside?

There's a heart that must be free to fly
That burns with a need to know the reason why

Why must we all conceal what we think and how we feel?
Must there be a secret me I'm forced to hide?
I won't pretend that I'm someone else for all time
When will my reflection show who I am inside?
When will my reflection show who I am inside?
