Bright Eyes - First Day of My Life

This is the first day of my life
Swear I was born right in the doorway
I went out in the rain suddenly everything changed
They're spreading blankets on the beach

Yours is the first face that I saw
I think I was blind before I met you
Now I don't know where I am
I don't know where I've been
But I know where I want to go

And so I thought I'd let you know
That these things take forever
I especially am slow
But I realize that I need you
And I wondered if I could come home

Remember the time you drove all night
Just to meet me in the morning
And I thought it was strange you said everything changed
You felt as if you'd just woke up
And you said "this is the first day of my life
I'm glad I didn't die before I met you
But now I don't care I could go anywhere with you
And I'd probably be happy"

So if you want to be with me
With these things there's no telling
We just have to wait and see
But I'd rather be working for a paycheck
Than waiting to win the lottery
Besides maybe this time is different
I mean I really think you like me
 
I love both the original and updated version of this song.

ED SHEERAN - "Thinking Out Loud"


When your legs don't work like they used to before
And I can't sweep you off of your feet
Will your mouth still remember the taste of my love
Will your eyes still smile from your cheeks

And darling I will be loving you 'til we're 70
And baby my heart could still fall as hard at 23
And I'm thinking 'bout how people fall in love in mysterious ways
Maybe just the touch of a hand
Oh me I fall in love with you every single day
And I just wanna tell you I am

So honey now
Take me into your loving arms
Kiss me under the light of a thousand stars
Place your head on my beating heart
I'm thinking out loud
Maybe we found love right where we are

When my hair's all but gone and my memory fades
And the crowds don't remember my name
When my hands don't play the strings the same way, mm
I know you will still love me the same

'Cause honey your soul can never grow old, it's evergreen
Baby your smile's forever in my mind and memory

I'm thinking 'bout how people fall in love in mysterious ways
Maybe it's all part of a plan
I'll just keep on making the same mistakes
Hoping that you'll understand

But baby now
Take me into your loving arms
Kiss me under the light of a thousand stars
Place your head on my beating heart
I'm thinking out loud
That maybe we found love right where we are, oh

(Ah la la, la la la, la la la, la la la la)

So baby now
Take me into your loving arms
Kiss me under the light of a thousand stars
Oh darling, place your head on my beating heart
I'm thinking out loud
That maybe we found love right where we are

Oh maybe we found love right where we are
And we found love right where we are
 
Prince - Kiss

You don't have to be beautiful
To turn me on
I just need your body baby
From dusk till dawn
You don't need experience
To turn me out
You just leave it all up to me
I'm gonna show you what it's all about

You don't have to be rich
To be my girl
You don't have to be cool
To rule my world
Ain't no particular sign I'm more compatible with
I just want your extra time and your

Kiss,
Oh oh

You got to not talk dirty, baby
If you want to impress me
You can't be to flirty, mama
I know how to undress me, yeah
I want to be your fantasy
Maybe you could be mine
You just leave it all up to me
We could have a good time

Don't have to be rich
To be my girl
Don't have to be cool
To rule my world
Ain't no particular sign I'm more compatible with
I just want your extra time and your

Kiss
Yes, oh oh oh

Ah
I think I want to dance, uhh, ooohh
Gotta, gotta, oh
Little girl Wendy's parade
Gotta, gotta, gotta

Women not girls rule my world
I said they rule my world
Act your age, mama (not your shoe size)
Not your shoe size
Maybe we could do the twirl
You don't have to watch Dynasty
To have an attitude
You just leave it all up to me
My love will be your food
Yeah

You don't have to be rich
To be my girl
You don't have to be cool
To rule my world
Ain't no particular sign I'm more compatible with
I just want your extra time and your
Kiss



And by far, imho.

(English Translation)
Out of longing for you

For an eternity, I lived as if you didn't exist
But in all of my dreams, you were still close
So wonderfully close
And I thought I had found you
But you were somewhere else
Every time I found someone
I realized that the dream wasn't true

Think of all of the open arms I've walked away from out of longing for you
Because I thought that you were somewhere, waiting for me
And all of the days I've wandered around, sorrowful and tired
To get to meet the most beautiful human being I've ever met

It was simple and beautiful
You said you'd been waiting for me
I could have guessed that there was a heaven
On Earth, I saw it
And you asked for me to live
My life always close to you
I followed your steps and everything I've ever
Dreamt of was there for me

Think of all of the open arms I've walked away from out of longing for you
Because I thought that you were somewhere, waiting for me
And all of the days I've wandered around, sorrowful and tired
To get to meet the most beautiful human being I've ever met

There was nothing that had ever attracted
My heart so wonderfully
With all your tenderness you make the sorrow and pain
Slowly disappear
All of the shadows
All of the darkness that used to be so obvious
It scatters, and together we see the light
That rises as fast as the sun

Think of all of the open arms I've walked away from out of longing for you
Because I thought that you were somewhere, waiting for me
And all of the days I've wandered around, sorrowful and tired
To get to meet the most beautiful human being I've ever met

Think of all of the open arms I've walked away from out of longing for you
Because I thought that you were somewhere, waiting for me
And all of the days I've wandered around, sorrowful and tired
To get to meet the most beautiful human being I've ever met
 
Can't forget about these...

Not epic but I do love the romance and playfulness of this song. The Shires "State Lines" - UK country band who sound very similar to Lady Antebellum

Epic????

This song is so cheesy, but still respectful somehow. It is contradictory.

Ti loves contradictions.
