Songs for the Sitch

LOTS OF SICKLY SWEET EMOTIONEY GIRLY SONGS READ AT YOUR OWN RISK


"When the Heartache Ends" by Rob Thomas

It's alright, why don't you tell me, my friend, how you'll still be here when the heartache ends.
There ain't nobody who can show you how to find the surface when you're underground.
There ain't no blanket that can hide this cold.
There ain't no memory that ever gets old.
And I move in all directions, to the corners and the outskirts.
While the lovers and the lonely start to whisper all about me.
And if I stand here silent, I almost start to feel you fading in,
telling me to hold on, 'cause it's gonna be alright.

"Sparks Fly" by Taylor Swift (yeah it's gonna be like that.)

The way you move is like a full-on rainstorm, and I'm a house of cards.
You're the kind of reckless that should send me running, but I kind of know that I won't get far.
And you stood there in front of me just close enough to touch...
Close enough to hope you couldn't see what I was thinking of:
Drop everything now.
Meet me in the pouring rain.
Kiss me on the sidewalk, take away the pain.
'Cause I see sparks fly whenever you smile.
Get me with those green eyes, baby, as the lights go down.
Give me something that'll haunt me when you're not around.
'Cause I see sparks fly whenever you...smile.
My mind forgets to remind me: you're a bad idea.
You touch me once and it's really something, you find I'm even better than you imagined I would be.
I'm on my guard for the rest of the world, but with you...I know it's no good.
And I could wait patiently, but, I really wish you would...
Drop everything now, meet me in the pouring rain.
Kiss me on the sidewalk, take away the pain.
'Cause I see sparks fly whenever you smile.
Get me with those green eyes, baby, as the lights go down.
Give me something that'll haunt me when you're not around.
'Cause I see sparks fly whenever you...smile.

I run my fingers through your hair and watch the lights go wild.
Just keep on keeping your eyes on me, it's just wrong enough to make it feel right.
Lead me up the staircase, won't you whisper soft and slow?
I'm captivated by you, baby, like a fireworks show.




"Smile" by Avril Lavigne (one of the few parts of the few songs on her new album that aren't repetitive and boring)

And that's why I smile.
It's been a while since every day and everything has felt this right.
And now, you've turned it all around.
And suddenly, you're all I need, the reason why I smile. 

"Catch Me" by Demi Lovato

See, this heart won't settle down.
Like a child running scared from a clown, I'm terrified of what you do.
My stomach screams, just when I look at you.
Run far away, so I can breathe...even though you're far from suffocating me.
I can't get my hopes too high, 'cause every hello ends with a good-bye.
But you're so hypnotizing, you've got me laughing while I sing.
You've got me smiling in my sleep.
And I can see this unraveling...your love is where I'm falling.
But please don't catch me.

"If My Heart Was a House" by Owl City

You're the sky that I fell through, and I remember the view whenever I'm holding you.
The sun hung from a string, looking down at the world as it warms over everything.
Chills run down my spine, as our fingers entwine, and your sighs harmonize with mine.
Unmistakably, I can still feel your heart beat fast when you dance with me. 


"Good Life" by One Republic

We've all got our stories, but please tell me-e-e-e what there's to complain about.
When you're happy like a fool, let it take you over!
When everything is out, you gotta take it in.
Oh, this could really be a good life.
This has gotta be a good life.
This could really be a good life, a good, good life.
