Perfect by Simple Plan

 

I woke up and thought of this song: Perfect by Simple Plan, here is the lyrics:

Hey, Dad, look at me

Think back, and talk to me

Did I grow up according to plan?

And do you think I'm wasting my time

Doing things I wanna do?

But it hurts when you disapprove all along

And now I try hard to make it

I just want to make you proud

I'm never gonna be good enough for you

Can't pretend that I'm alright

And you can't change me

'Cause we lost it all

Nothin' lasts forever

I'm sorry I can't be perfect

Now it's just too late

And we can't go back

I'm sorry I can't be perfect

I try not to think

About the pain I feel inside

Did you know you used to be my hero?

All the days you spent with me

Now seem so far away

And it feels like you don't care any more

And now I try hard to make it

I just wanna make you proud

I'm never gonna be good enough for you

I can't stand another fight

And nothing's all right

'Cause we lost it all

And nothin' lasts forever

I'm sorry I can't be perfect

Now it's just too late

And we can't go back

I'm sorry I can't be perfect

Nothing's gonna change the things that you said

And nothing's gonna make this right again

Please don't turn your back

I can't believe it's hard just to talk to you

But you don't understand

'Cause we lost it all

And nothin' lasts forever

I'm sorry I can't be perfect

Now it's just too late

And we can't go back

I'm sorry I can't be perfect

'Cause we lost it all

And nothin' lasts forever

I'm sorry I can't be perfect

Now it's just too late

And we can't go back

I'm sorry I can't be perfect

Just the Way You Are by Billy Joel

I have been listening to this song when it is played on the radio. This phrase, "I don't want clever conversation" reminded me that it is something I am looking for in a conversation, which is not a clever one, but an honest and truthful conversation. Hope you enjoy the song as much as I do.

Just the Way You Are by Billy Joel

Here is the lyrics:

  

Don't go changing to try and please me

You never let me down before, mmm

Don't imagine you're too familiar

And I don't see you anymore

I would not leave you in times of trouble

We never could have come this far, mmm

I took the good times, I'll take the bad times

I'll take you just the way you are

Don't go trying some new fashion

Don't change the color of your hair, mmm

You always have my unspoken passion

Although I might not seem to care

I don't want clever conversation

I never want to work that hard, mmm

I just want someone that I can talk to

I want you just the way you are

I need to know that you will always be

The same old someone that I knew

Oh, but what will it take till you believe in me

The way that I believe in you?

I said I love you, that's forever

And this I promise from the heart, mmm

I couldn't love you any better

I love you just the way you are, right

I don't want clever conversation

I never want to work that hard, mmm

I just want someone that I can talk to

I want you just the way you are

Can You Hear

 

Like this song recently...

Here is the lyrics:

Can you hear me

Whispering your name?

Do you feel me

Lying beside you?

Even though we're apart

Can you hear my beating heart? 

It's sending a message to you 

Can you hear me

Calling out your name?

In that moment

Hoping we will treasure 

How she drifted us apart

That space in my heart

Will always be a heaven for you 

Please don't go

Please don't go

When we lie together 

Hearts keep time forever 

Oh Please don't go

Please don't go away

Please tell I'd like to know can you hear me? 

Can you hear me

Whispering your name?

Do you feel me

Lying beside you?

Even though we're apart

Can you hear my beating heart? 

It's sending a message to you 

Can you hear me

Crying out your name?

In that moment

Reflect in each other 

Shall we pick up the parts? 

That space in my heart

Can only hold a picture of you 

Please don't go

Please don't go

When we lie together 

Hearts keep time forever 

Oh Please don't go

Please don't go away

Please tell I'd like to know can you hear me?

Wrapped in your arms 

Safe from love's harm 

When we lie together 

Hearts could cry forever 

I need you tonight 

In darkness I fight 

Please tell I'd like to know can you hear me?
