The Town Lyrics

You did many things
That I liked, that I liked
And you like diamond rings
I can provide, I can provide for you
You made me feel so good
Before I left, on the road
And you deserve your name on a crown, on a throne

You did many things
That I liked, that I liked
And you like diamond rings
I can provide, I can provide for you
You made me feel so good
Before I left, on the road
And you deserve your name on a crown, on a throne

I haven't been around my town in a long while
I apologize but I
I've been trying to get this money like I got a couple kids, who rely
On me
But I remember on the bathroom floor before I went on tour
When you said we couldn't do it again
'Cause you had a thing with some other man

You said it was love
And you said you were lost
Then you wished me good luck
To find somebody to love
But, ooh
Now I've heard that you're single
And oh
I'll give you something to live for
Yes, I will

Honey please
You never thought you'd ever see my face again
But your love just swayed the lies
When he stared into your eyes
And he just might be too good for you
You're almost dead to him
You're sleeping with a frozen heart
Well baby girl it's over now
And you can always count on me
Your uncheckable,
Unrestrained to touch
So immune to love
And it feels so priceless to me
That you're always free
That you'll take me in
Now, I'm everything, your everything

I bet you'll take me in
I know you'll take me in now
The same place I left you in,
Ooh
I bet you'll take me in
I know you'll take me in,
I know you'll take me in
The same place I left you in

Ooh, oh
Ooh
Ooh
No
Let me love you

You did many things
That I liked, that I liked
And you like diamond rings
I can provide, I can provide for you
You made me feel so good
Before I left, on the road
And you deserve your name on a crown, on a throne

The Town

This song finds Abel "The Weeknd" Tesfaye lamenting about having to move on from a local conquest. "You made me feel so good before I left on the road," he croons to his lost lover, whose absence leaves him tormented. "When you're traveling constantly, every day you become inspired, and it shows in my work, sonically, lyrically, visually," Tesfaye MTV News. "Conversations with women with different accents and stories told in those accents, I like to create characters based on different people I've met, and relationships. I like to tell stories loosely based on real-life events."

Gone With The Sin Lyrics

Gone With The Sin

A track from the Finnish band HIM's second album, this one finds lead singer Ville Valo describing his affection for a girl who is filled with anguish. He sings about her looks, as well as the deep despair that engulfs her heart. He loves her as she is just like him - so lost in this world of pain, suffering and tormented. The title is a play on the classic novel, Gone With The Wind.

This is one of HIM's more popular songs, going to #1 in Finland. Ville Valo tells us that the song was composed once they had the album essentially completed, which is a fruitful time for the band since they suddenly find themselves more relaxed. "Once all that stuff is out of your system - meaning recorded and produced - then all of a sudden you feel a breath of fresh air, this sense of relief," he said. "These days when we're booking studio time, I like to leave an extra week at the very end in case we have some ridiculously good idea that we still want to try out."

Paradise (What About Us?) Lyrics

There's no sense, the fire burns
When wisdom fails, it changes all
The wheel embodies all that keeps on turning

Blood red skies, I feel so cold
No innocence, we play our roll
The wheel embodies all
Where are we going?

All in all
You expect the wise to be wiser
Fallen from grace and
All and all I guess we should have known better
'Cause

What about us
Isn't it enough
No we're not in paradise
This is who we are
This is what we've got
No it's not our paradise
But it's all we want
And it's all that we're fighting for
Though it's not paradise

You and us, or I and them
There comes a time to take a stand
The wheel is watching all it keeps on burning

The venom works, it's like a curse
A trojan horse, when will we learn?
The wheel embodies all that keeps returning

All in all
You expect the wise to be wiser
Fallen from grace and
All and all I guess we should have known better
'Cause

What about us
Isn't it enough
No we're not in paradise
This is who we are
This is what we've got
No it's not our paradise
But it's all we want
And it's all that we're fighting for
Though it's not paradise

What about us
Isn't it enough
No we're not in paradise
This is who we are
This is what we've got
No it's not our paradise
But it's all we want
And it's all that we're fighting for

What about us
Isn't it enough
No we're not in paradise
This is who we are
This is what we've got
No it's not our paradise
But it's all we want
And it's all that we're fighting for
But it's not paradise

What about us
What about us
What about us
Isn't it enough

What about us
What about us
What about us
Isn't it enough

What about us
What about us
What about us
Isn't it enough

What about us
What about us
What about us
Isn't it enough

Paradise (What About Us?)

The title track of Within Temptation's Paradise (What About Us?) EP finds frontwoman Sharon den Adel duetting with classically trained Finnish rock diva and former Nightwish singer Tarja Turunen. Said Den Adel: "When we had written the first version of 'Paradise' and listened back to the demo we'd recorded and the epic power of the song, we thought of Tarja instantly. How well this track would fit her classical voice and how extra special it would be if we sang it together. The more we thought about this wild idea, the more excited we got about it!"

She continued "Of course I didn't know what to expect from Tarja, as we'd never actually met in person 'till June this year. Our first encounter was via a Skype call we'd set-up to discuss the collaboration and we immediately clicked, not only creatively but personally. After we'd spoken, it felt completely natural that we would do this together!"

According to its press release, the central theme of the song and its accompanying music video is that only constructive co-operation can lead to creation. To establish a new paradise, rising from the ashes of the old, we must work together.

The lyrics were inspired by a speech given by retired four-star general Peter van Uhm of the Royal Netherlands Army on May 4, 2013 (Dutch Liberation Day) next to the Dutch National Monument. "His speech made a deep impression on us," recalled Adel. "His message being that the creation of a better world is only possible when you don't think about 'yourself' or 'them' but just think about 'us.'"

Nobody Sees Me Like You Do Lyrics

I see your face looking into the space,
All tired and worried.
Why does it have to be like this, you and I,
I wanted us to be happy.

No one can see me like you do.
No one can see you like I do.

I see your face with a trace of life,
Being a wife and a woman.
If I ever hurt you, please, remember,
I wanted you to be happy.

Is there anything I want more,
More than your trust and understanding?

No one can see me like you do.
No one can see you like I do.

I wanna quit moving,
I wanna quit running,
I wanna relax and be tender.
I wanna see us together again,
Rocking away in our walnut chairs.

Even with your warmth and closeness,
The feeling of loneliness hangs over like a curse.

No one can see me like you do.
No one can see you like I do.

Even with our dreams and yearnings,
The feeling of loneliness hangs over like a thirst.

No one can see me like you do.
No one can see you like I do.

No one can see me like you do.
No one can see you like I do.

Christmas Canon

The base of "Christmas Canon" is Johann Pachelbel's Canon in D major, which has been sneaking its way into Pop music for years. The Bee Gees borrowed the harmony for their debut hit "Spicks And Specks" in 1966 and, according to music producer Pete Waterman, Kylie Minogue's 1988 single "I Should Be So Lucky" was also based on Canon in D.

Trans-Siberian Orchestra added new lyrics and melodies to the piece for "Christmas Canon" with strings and piano accompaniment for a traditional sound. Later, they added their signature rock edge for "Christmas Canon Rock" on 2004's The Lost Christmas Eve.

The marriage of Classical music and Rock is what Trans-Siberian Orchestra is all about, but it's not always easy under the rapid-fire pacing of their perfectionist producer/lyricist Paul O'Neill. TSO's Jon Oliva told us :

"He'll say, 'Here's Brahms' Piano Concerto in A minor, write something to go along with it.' I've never even heard that - what are you talking about? Brahms' 48 Concerto Symphony to the 10th power, all right. You'd better give me a day on this, Paul."

"I can't read music," Oliva added. "So I have to listen to this stuff. You get the track, they burn the track and the thing's 37 minutes long. I'm like, 'Where do you want me to write what? It's already a half hour long!' 'No, I want you to do something between this riff and this riff and make it hard rock.' I'm like, 'You'd better give me a day on this.'"

Just Like Frank Zappa Lyrics

Just Like Frank Zappa

This song is about a guy who laments that acid rock (The Beatles, The 5th Dimension, and The Mothers of Invention) killed the popularity of country-fried rock 'n' roll singers like Ricky Nelson and Jimmy Burton.

Howard Stern ridiculed this obscure song on his show because it is sung by rival radio host Don Imus.

The line, "Waitress, get me a Rueben and the Jets, easy on the acid" is a reference to the album Cruising With Ruben And The Jets by Frank Zappa And The Mothers of Invention.

Christmas Eve/Sarajevo 12/24 Lyrics

Christmas Eve/Sarajevo 12/24

This song originated on Savatage's Dead Winter Dead album in 1995 but became an important hit for the band's side project, Trans-Siberian Orchestra. Because Savatage had the well-earned reputation of being an '80s Heavy Metal band, many radio stations were reluctant to play the Christmas offering. In our interview with Jon Oliva , who wrote the song with Robert Kinkel and Paul O'Neill, he recalled: "They never even listened to it. You know how we know? Because the next year we sent the exact same song and put a Christmas tree on the cover and an angel and called it 'Trans-Siberian Orchestra,' and it was #1 on 500 radio stations."

Under the Savatage moniker, "12/24" peaked at #65 on the Billboard Hot 100. The TSO name brought it to #49 on the same chart a year later and also to #29 on the Billboard Hot Mainstream Rock Tracks. It's featured on TSO's debut album, Christmas Eve and Other Stories.

This song tells the story of a Sarajevo-born cellist (Vedran Smailovic) who returns to his homeland to find it in ruins after the Bosnian War. TSO lyricist Paul O'Neill explained to Christianity Today: "I think what most broke this man's heart was that the destruction was not done by some outside invader or natural disaster—it was done by his own people. At that time, Serbs were shelling Sarajevo every night. Rather than head for the bomb shelters like his family and neighbors, this man went to the town square, climbed onto a pile of rubble that had once been the fountain, took out his cello, and played Mozart and Beethoven as the city was bombed."

TSO created an instrumental medley of "Carol of the Bells" and "God Rest You Merry Gentlemen" to fit the story. "The orchestra represents one side, the rock band the other, and single cello represents that single individual, that spark of hope," O'Neill said.

"Christmas Eve/Sarajevo 12/24" was used in the "Christmas Wishes" episode of The Office (US version) in 2011.

Jenny Wren Lyrics

Like so many girls, Jenny Wren could sing
But a broken heart, took her soul away

Like the other girls, Jenny Wren took wing
She could see the world, and it's foolish ways

How, we, spend our days, casting, love aside
Loosing, site of life, day, by, day

She saw poverty, breaking all the home
Wounded warriors, took her song away

But the day will come, Jenny Wren will sing
When this broken world, mends its foolish ways

Now we, spend our days, catching, up on life
All because of you, Jenny Wren

Jenny Wren

McCartney describes this song as the daughter of Blackbird.

In what could be a Pop music first, this song features a duduk solo. A duduk is an Armenian wind instrument.

This song could be about a girl: when she is young likes to sing, but then as time goes on that spirit fades.

Fear Lyrics

All my life
Been running from a pain in me
A feeling I don't understand
Holding me down

So rain on me
Underwater
All I am, getting harder
A heavy weight
I carry around.

Today
I don't have to fall apart
I don't have to be afraid
I don't have to let the damage
Consume me,
My shadow see through me

'Cause Fear in itself
Will reel you in and spit you out
Over and over again
Believe in yourself
And you will walk
Now, fear in itself
Will use you up and break you down
Like you were never enough
Yeah, I used to fall, now I get back up.

I'm up here
I'm looking at the way down there
I'm staring through the I don't care
It's staring back at me

The beauty is
I'm learning how to face my beast
Starting now to find some peace
Set myself free, yeah

Today,
I don't have to fall apart
I don't have to be afraid
I don't have to let the damage consume me,
My shadow see through me

'Cause fear in itself
Will reel you in and spit you out
Over and over again
Believe in yourself
And you will walk
And now, fear in itself
Will use you up and break you down
Like you were never enough
I used to fall but now I get back up

I'm moving on
Oh God just move on

Today,
I don't have to fall apart
I don't have to be afraid
Get back up
Get up

Feel it, fear, wow
And now fear, fear in itself can use you up
And then breaks you down
You're never enough
And I used to fall

Breathe,
Ask for more
If you're bitter still
Ask him to help you carry on

Fear

The lyrics on Blue October's seventh studio album, Sway, were penned by frontman Justin Furstenfeld in an upbeat frame of mind after conquering a crippling alcohol addiction. This song is about the main thing he learned once he got sober. Furstenfeld explained to Artist Direct : "The reason I did use and drink was because of fear. The reason I kept myself from being happy is I was scared of the outcome. In the last year and a half, I learned there's no room for 'Fear.' When I hear that song, it wraps up the last seventeen years of my life. I found what I've been looking for."

The final track of Sway, "To Be," was created by playing back a slowed down recording of the strings from this song.

I Miss You Lyrics

To see you when I wake up
Is a gift I didn't think could be real

To know that you feel the same as I do
Is a three-fold utopian dream

You do something to me that I can't explain
So would I be out of line if I said
I Miss You?

I see your picture
I smell your skin on the empty pillow next to mine

You have only been gone ten days
But already I'm wasting away

I know I'll see you again
Whether far or soon

But I need you to know that I care
And I miss you

Too Much Lyrics

Don't think about it Too Much, too much, too much, too much
There's no need for us to rush it through
Don't think about it too much, too much, too much, too much
This is more than just a new lust for you

Done saying, I'm done playing
Last time was on the outro
Stuck in the house, need to get out more
I've been stacking up like I'm fundraising
Most people in my position get complacent
Come places with star girls, end up on them front pages
I'm quiet but I just ride with it
Moment I stop having fun with it, I'll be done with it
I'm the only one that's putting shots up
And like a potluck, you need to come with it
Don't run from it, like H-Town in the summer time, I keep it 100
Lot of girls in my time there, word to Paul Wall, not one fronted
I was birthed there in my first year, man I know that place like I come from it
Backstage at Warehouse in '09 like "Is Bun coming?
Fuck that, is any one coming 'fore I show up there and ain't no one there?"
These days, I could probably pack it for like twenty nights if I go in there
Back rub from my main thing, I've been stressed out
Talking to her like back then they didn't want me, I'm blessed now
Talking to her like this drop, bet a million copies get pressed out
She tell me, "Take a deep breath, you're too worried about being the best out"

Don't think about it too much, too much, too much, too much
There's no need for us to rush it through
Don't think about it too much, too much, too much, too much
This is more than just a new lust for you

Someone go tell Noel to get the Backwoods
Money got my whole family going backwards
No dinners, no holidays, no nothing
There's issues at hand that we're not discussing
Look, I did not sign up for this
My uncle used to have all these things on his bucket list
And now he's acting like, oh, well, this is life, I guess, "Nah, fuck that shit
Listen man, you can still do what you wanna do, you gotta trust that shit"
Heard once that in dire times when you need a sign, that's when they appear
Guess since my text message didn't resonate, I'll just say it here
Hate the fact my mom cooped up in her apartment, telling herself
That she's too sick to get dressed up and go do shit, like that's true shit
And all my family from the M-Town that I've been 'round, started treating me like I'm "him" now
Like we don't know each other, we ain't grow together, we just friends now
Shit got me feeling pinned down, pick the pen up and put the pen down
Writing to you from a distance like a pen pal, but we've been down

Don't think about it too much, too much, too much, too much
There's no need for us to rush it through
Don't think about it too much, too much, too much, too much
This is more than just a new lust for you

Don't think about it too much, too much, too much, too much
There's no need for us to rush it through
Don't think about it too much, too much, too much, too much
This is more than just a new lust for you

Too Much

Drake debuted this piano-led track during his September 13, 2013 appearance on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon. The Toronto rapper introduced the tune by saying that the words he was about to spit were out of care. "Before I do this song," he said, "I just want to say to my friends and family, I want the best for everybody and I love you all."

The song is in part a seize-the-day pep talk to a loved one. He raps:

"My uncle used to have all these things on his bucket list.
And now he's acting like, 'Oh well, this is life, I guess.'
Nah, f--k that s—t.
Listen, man, you could still do what you want to do."

Drake also talks about his mom, saying she is "Cooped up in her apartment, telling herself that she's too sick to get dressed."

Drake has rapped about his mother on several other tracks including his single "Successful," where he talks about a difficult time in her life when distressed by seeing a deterioration in her own elderly mom, she tried to run away.

The song features the British Soul singer-songwriter Sampha crooning the hook. The London native also contributed to Drake's NWTS Best Buy bonus track "The Motion."
