What If

Music and lyrics by Scott Stapp and Mark Tremonti


I can't find the rhyme in all my reason
I've lost sense of time and all seasons
I feel I've been beaten down
By the words of men who have no grounds
I can't sleep beneath the trees of wisdom
When your ax has cut the roots that feed them
Forked tongues in bitter mouths
Can drive a man to bleed from inside out

  Chorus
What if you did?
What if you lied?
What if I avenge?
What if eye for an eye?

I've seen the wicked fruit of your vine
Destroy the man who lacks a strong mind
Human pride sings a vengeful song
Inspired by the times you've been walked on
My stage is shared by many millions
Who lift their hands up high because they feel this
We are one, we are strong
The more you hold us down the more we press on

  Chorus

I know I can't hold the hate inside my mind
'Cause what consumes your thoughts controls your life
So I'll just ask a question
A lonely simple question
I'll just ask one qustion

What if? What if? What if? What if? What If I?
(Repeat 4 times)

  Chorus

What if your words could be judged like a crime?

What if? What if? What if? What if? What If I?
(Repeat 4 times)

Here with Me

Music and lyrics by Dido Armstrong, Pascal Gabriel, Paul Statham


I didn't hear you leave
I wonder how am I still here
And I don't want to move a thing
It might change my memory

  Chorus
Oh I am what I am, I'll do what I want but I can't hide
And I won't go, I won't sleep, I can't breathe
Until you're resting here with me
And I won't leave, I can't hide, I cannot be
Until you're resting here with me

I don't want to call my friends
They might wake me from this dream
And I can't leave this bed
Risk forgetting all that's been

  Chorus

And I won't go and I won't sleep and I can't breathe
Until you're resting here with me
And I won't leave and I can't hide, I cannot be
Until you're resting here with me

  Chorus

And I won't go and I won't sleep and I can't breathe
Until you're resting here with me
And I won't leave and I can't hide, I cannot be
Until you're resting here with me

Genie in a Bottle

Music and lyrics by Steve Kipner, David Frank, and Pam Sheyne


I feel like I've been locked up tight
For a century of lonely nights
Waiting for someone to release me
You're licking your lips and blowing kisses my way
But that don't mean I'm gonna give it away
Baby, baby, baby

Oh whoa...
My body's saying let's go
Oh whoa...
But my heart is saying no

If you wanna be with me
Baby there's a price to pay
I'm a genie in a bottle
You gotta rub me the right way
If you wanna be with me
I can make your wish come true
You gotta make a big impression
I gotta like what you do

I'm a genie in a bottle baby
Gotta rub me the right way, honey
I'm a genie in a bottle baby
Come, come, come on and let me out

The music's playing and the lights' down low
One more dance and then we're good to go
Waiting for someone who needs me
Hormones racing at the speed of light
But that don't mean It's gotta be tonight
Baby, baby, baby

Oh whoa...
My body's saying let's go
Oh whoa...
But my heart is saying no

If you wanna be with me
Baby there's a price to pay
I'm a genie in a bottle
You gotta rub me the right way
If you wanna be with me
I can make your wish come true
Just come and set me free baby
And I'll be with you

I'm a genie in a bottle baby
Gotta rub me the right way, honey
I'm a genie in a bottle baby
Come, come, come on and let me out
I'm a genie in a bottle baby
Gotta rub me the right way, honey
I'm a genie in a bottle baby
Come, come, come on and let me out

Oh whoa...
My body's saying let's go
Oh whoa...
But my heart is saying no

If you wanna be with me
Baby there's a price to pay
I'm a genie in a bottle
You gotta rub me the right way
If you wanna be with me
I can make your wish come true
You gotta make a big impression
I gotta like what you do

If you wanna be with me
Baby there's a price to pay
I'm a genie in a bottle
You gotta rub me the right way
If you wanna be with me
I can make your wish come true
Just come and set me free baby
And I'll be with you

I'm a genie in a bottle baby
Come, come, come on and let me out

2000년 그래미에서 브리트니 스피어스를 제치고 신인상을 거머쥔 크리스티나의 데뷔 싱글.
당시 나는 그래미 시상식을 라디오로 듣고 있었는데 신인상 발표할 때 브리트니겠거니- 하고 체념하고 있었다가 뜻밖에도 크리스티나가 호명되자 깜짝 놀라며 기뻐했던 기억이 난다. 후보들도 메이시 그레이, 키드 록 등 한 가닥 하는 사람들이라 별로 기대하지 않았는데. ㅎㅎㅎ

Rumour

Music by MGR
Lyrics by 이승환, 인은아


어떤 진실은 무딘 거짓이 되고
어떤 거짓은 허튼 진실이 되곤 하는 것
때로는 너무 넘치고
또 너무 모자라
결코 전불 말하잖는

오랜 동안 소리 없이 찔려대던 그 때에
흔들리지 말았어야
오 차라리 듣지 말았어야 했던 말들
날 부추기던 위험한 상상

어떤 친구는 결혼을 했다고 하고
어떤 친구는 말리던 그녀와 헤어졌대고
때로는 너무 솔깃한
또 너무 위태로운
세상은 널 너무 모른다

내가 듣는 너에 대한 말들이 좋은 것이길
남들이 널 가만두게
나쁜 것은 좋은 걸로
좋은 건 좋은 걸로
그렇게 널 기억하고 있어

불쑥 찾아왔다 문득 떠나 버리는
그대들의 한숨은 아랑곳 없이
듣고 싶은 말들만 적당히 가려듣길
비난의 말들은 걸러내길

  Repeat second verse

  Repeat fourth verse

그렇게 널 기억하고 싶어

Everything You Want

Music by Matt Scannell
Lyrics by Matt Scannell


Somewhere there's speaking
It's already coming in
Oh and it's rising at the back of your mind
You never could get it
Unless you were fed it
Now you're here and you don't know why

But under skinned knees and the skid marks
Past the places where you used to learn
You howl and listen
Listen and wait for the
Echoes of angels who won't return

 Chorus
He's everything you want
He's everything you need
He's everything inside of you
That you wish you could be
He says all the right things
At exactly the right time
But he means nothing to you
And you don't know why

You're waiting for someone
To put you together
You're waiting for someone to push you away
There's always another wound to discover
There's always something more you wish he'd say

 Chorus

But you'll just sit tight
And watch it unwind
It's only what you're asking for
And you'll be just fine
With all of your time
It's only what you're waiting for

Out of the island
Into the highway
Past the places where you might have turned
You never did notice
But you still hide away
The anger of angels who won't return

 Chorus

I am everything you want
I am everything you need
I am everything inside of you
That you wish you could be
I say all the right things
At exactly the right time
But I mean nothing to you
And I don't know why

And I don't know why
Why
I don't know

이 곡 때문에 크리스티나 아귈레라의 I Turn To You가 싱글 판매량 1위를 하고도 빌보드 싱글 차트 1위를 못했다.
하지만 역시 빌보드 1위는 어중이 떠중이 곡이나 하는 건 아님을 느끼게 했던 노래다.

Not Me

Music by Elton John
Lyrics by Tim Rice


I once knew all the answers
I stood on certain ground
A picture of true happiness
Confidence so effortless
No brighter could be found

I never asked the questions
That trouble me today
I knew all there was to know
Love worn lightly, put on show
A conquest on display

  Chorus
Who would have thought his love could be so good?
Not me, not me
My secrets and my passions understood?
Not me, not me
Who would have guessed he'd throw his world away
To be with someone till his dying day?
Not me, not me

I shall not envy lovers
But long for what they share
An empty room is merciless
Don't be surprised if I confess
I need some comfort there

  Chorus twice

Not me, not me

When the Going Gets Tough

Music and lyrics by Barry J. Eastmond, Billy Ocean, Robert John "Mutt" Lange, Wayne Braithwaite


When the going gets tough
The tough get going on

I got something to tell you
I got something to say
I'm gonna put this dream in motion
Never let nothing stand in my way

When the going gets tough
The tough gets going

I'm gonna get myself 'cross the river
That's the price I'm willing to pay
I'm gonna make you stand and deliver
And give me love in the old-fashioned way

Daaaaaaaaarlin'
I'll climb any mountain
Daaaaaaaaarlin'
I'll do anything

  Chorus
Ooh, can I touch you (can I touch you)
And do the things that lovers do
Ooh, wanna hold you (wanna hold you)
I gotta get it through to you
When the going gets tough
The tough gets going
When the going gets rough
The tough gets rough

I'm gonna buy me a one-way ticket
Nothing's gonna hold me back
Your love's like a slow train coming
And I feel it coming down the track

Daaaaaaaaaaarlin'
I'll climb any mountain
Daaaaaaaaaaarlin'
I'll do anything

  Chorus

Daaaaaaaaaaarlin'
I'll climb every mountain
Daaaaaaaaaaarlin'
I'll swim every sea
Daaaaaaaaaaarlin'
I'll reach for the heavens
Daaaaaaaaaaarlin'
With you lovin' me

Oooh, can I touch you (can I touch you)
And do the things that lovers do (can I touch you)
Oooh, wanna hold you (wanna hold you)
I gotta get it through to you

When the going gets tough
Going gets tough
When the going gets rough
Going gets rough
When the going gets tough
Going gets rough
When the going gets rough
Going gets rough
(Repeat until fade)

Every Day I Love You

 
Music and lyrics by Frank J. Myers, Gary Baker, and Jerry Williams


I don't know, but I believe
That some things are meant to be
And that you'll make a better me
Every day I love you

I never thought that dreams came true
But you showed me that they do
You know that I learn something new
Every day I love you

  Chorus
'Cause I believe that destiny
Is out of our control
(Don't you know that I do)
And you'll never live until you love
With all your heart and soul

It's a touch when I feel bad
It's a smile when I get mad
All the little things I have
Every day I love you

Every day I love you more
Every day I love you

  Chorus

If I asked would you say yes
Together we're the very best
I know that I am truly blessed
Every day I love you

And I'll give you my best
Every day I love you

You Needed Me

Music by Randy Goodrum
Lyrics by Randy Goodrum


You needed me

I cried a tear
You wiped it dry
I was confused
You cleared my mind
I sold my soul
You bought it back for me
And held me up
And gave me dignity
Somehow you needed me

You gave me strength
To stand alone again
To face the world
Out on my own again
You put me high
Upon a pedestal
So high that I could almost see eternity
You needed me
You needed me

And I can't believe it's you
I can't believe it's trrue
I needed you
And you were there
And I'll never leave
Why should I leave?
I'd be a fool
'Cause I finally found someone who really cares
You needed me

You held my hand
When it was cold
When I was lost
You took me home
You gave me hope
When I was at the end
And turned my lies
Back into truth again
You even called me 'friend'

You gave me strength
To stand alone again
To face the world
Out on my own again
You put me high
Upon a pedestal
So high that I could almost see eternity
You needed me
You needed me

You needed me
You needed me
Oh, yes, you needed me
You needed me
