Vanessa Carlton Şarkı Sözleri ( Lyrics ) A Thousand Miles Makin' my way downtown, Walkin' fast, Faces pass and I'm homebound Starin' blankly ahead, Just makin' my way, Makin' a way through the crowd And I need you, And I miss you, And now I wonder If I could fall into the sky, Do you think time would pass me by? 'Cause you know I'd walk a thousand miles If I could just see you Tonight It's always times like these When I think of you, And wonder if you ever think of me 'Cause everything's so wrong And I don't belong. Livin' in your precious memory 'Cause I need you, And I miss you, And now I wonder If I could fall into the sky, Do you think time would pass me by? 'Cause you know I'd walk a thousand miles If I could just see you Tonight And I, I, don't wanna let you know I, I, drown in your memory. I, I, don't wanna let this go. I, I, don't Makin' my way downtown, Walkin' fast, Faces pass and I'm homebound Starin' blankly ahead, Just makin' my way, Makin' a way through the crowd And I still need you, And I still miss you, And now I wonder If I could fall into the sky, Do you think time Would pass us by? 'Cause you know I'd walk a thousand miles If I could just see you Oh oh If I could fall into the sky, Do you think time would pass me by? 'Cause you know I'd walk a thousand miles If I could just see you. If I could just hold you Tonight... Vanessa Carlton |
Afterglow Afterglow Just when the days start getting colder, I walk the streets I never knew There's some words I never told you, The sound rings out like the truth And if you could see what's come over me Then you would know Cause I'm walking free The wind at my back Bathed in afterglow As I sit here in this dark room, All I seem to feel is light I see color, I see the maroon in the blood of this life That's ours Watch the sun it paints an orange sky Lay me down and feel the days gone by Just when the days start getting longer I walk the streets I never knew The sun comes out for you...

Annie Annie Watch her as she flew deep within the blue A day out from the county I.C.U. There's nothing you can do Someone gently says to you The doctor says that now it won't be long I try and live up 'til the moment and I hope that I don't blow it And what is it in me that she hears? It's just a song she likes Little arms around my neck And a dying girl whispers in my ear Tell me now can you feel it? I've been keeping company with a ghost She comes to me like a piece of summer She comes to me on the days when I need it most Well summer dies and nothing lasts forever And you're so fine, the way you stand up to your fears The summer dies and its just moments we have together I'd give my bones for you to get a few more years For you and I, oh Annie More to life than trying to survive, oh Annie My boyfriend took pictures of me as I held you I travel alone and the loneliness brings me to tears The summer dies and it's just moments we have together I'd give my bones for you to get a few more years For you and I, oh Annie More to life than trying to survive, oh Annie Stronger than the hands that hold you You sing along to the song on the radio If I drank too much when I am reckless Just this once would you forgive this And hold on, the days gone by Tell me now can you feel it? I can't keep this all to myself She's elegant and she means it, no Years for you and I, oh Annie More to life than trying to survive, oh Annie Watch her as she flew deep within the blue Watch her as she slips away from you I'll keep fingers crossed always for you...

Come Undone Come Undone I've seen myself in a thousand faces Strung out on life's path I would add up what you mean to me But I cannot do the math And this fashionista's garden party Well I had enough of that Cause the only one I come undone for is you Oh the only one I come undone for I'm a special lover sometimes But you only touch a ghost I'm a sycophantic courtier With an elegant repost Needless to say you're the one that I need The most Cause the only one I come undone for is you Oh the only one I come undone For is you The only one I come undone for is you I know I'm done And now I see the truth I know I'm done I come undone for you You've been gone so long, Waiting here for you You've been gone so long, Come undone for you There are people in this lifetime That we should never meet Cause to be here now without you, well, My life's so incomplete I tell you what you mean to me, Maybe then you'll see Cause the only one I come undone for is you Oh the only one I come undone for is you The only one I come undone for is you...

Fools Like Me Fools Like Me Beware the danger it lurks for those who get swept away The dreamers get punished most by truth They say it's all in a little ways One reveals their love's gone away, Love's gone away When my hand was in your hand My heart was pure Now I see a different man Rewriting memories The dogs run down the beach And all I'm left with Is sand in my shoes, Sand in my shoes Fools like me We love blindly And the cracks don't count It's gotta break in front of me Now I recall that time at the cafe, The thunderstorm outside Words you could never say, They hold the loudest tones You say you'll write But it's ink on a page, Just ink on a page Fools like me Oh we love blindly And the cracks don't count It's gotta break in front of me Tic toc the time Distant look grows in your eye But fools never ask Afraid of what lurks in your mind I always knew, somehow, always knew I always knew the truth Fools like me Oh we never see Cause the cracks don't count It's gotta break in front of me And it's breakin', It's breakin', It's breakinIt's gotta break for me to see At least I can say I was not afraid I loved you all the way I'd pick the fool any day...

Half A Week Before The Winter Half A Week Before The Winter Half a week before the winter The chill bites before it comes And I'm a child of the pleasure That he brings before he runs He sits behind a desk of mahogany He whispers dreams into my ear And though I've given him his empire He delivers me my fear The unicorns are riding high Powerful in coats of white I turn to look and burn my eyes I carry on, I carry All the weight of empty promise As I stand swallowed by the light Flickering above the highway I hold my head and know the streets are mine tonight The vampires are growing tired The coats of white all turn to red My heart burns with desire I carry on, I carry on The unicorns are riding high Powerful in coats of white We turn to look and burn our eyes I carry on, I carry The vampires are growing tired The coats of white all turn to red My heart burns with desire I carry on, I carry on I carry on I carry on We carry on...

Hands On Me Hands On Me I first saw you at the video exchange I know my heart and it will never change This temp work would be alright if you'd call me You'd call me I lay awake at night for you And I pray We'd cross the deepest oceans Cargo across the sea And if you don't believe me Just put your hands on me And all the constellations Shine down for us to see And if you don't believe me Just put your hands on me The subway radiates with heat We've barely met and still I cross the street to your door We'd cross the deepest oceans Cargo across the sea And if you don't believe me Just put your hands on me And all the constellations Shine down for us to see And if you don't believe me Just put your hands on me Someday when our stories are told They'll tell of a love like this When our descendents are all growing old 1,000 years they'll be singing Nah nah, nah nah, nah, nah, nah We'll climb Tibetan mountains Where we can barely breathe I'll see the Dali Lama I'll feel him blessing me And all the constellations Shine down for us to see And if you don't believe me Just put your hands on me Your hands on me...

Heroes & Thieves Heroes & Thieves Well, disaster it strikes on a daily basis And I'm looking for wisdom in all the wrong places But still wanna laugh in disappointed faces And you can't help me I'm blinded by these Heroes and Thieves at my door And I can't seem to tell them apart anymore Just when I figured it out Darling it's you I'm without Well I'm stubborn and wrong, But at least I know it I keep movin' along And hope I can get through this But maybe this song is the best I can do it So I'm patiently waiting on these Heroes and Thieves at my door And I can't seem to tell them apart anymore Just when I figure it out Darling it's you, Darling it's you oh, Darling it's you I'm without your comforting logic like, These days are the ones I'll miss And I seek a solitude That I can't find without you Seems like I'm getting closer somehow A flicker of peace that I finally found Thank you for believing in me now Cause I do need it Give me a year or two And I'll mend my ways And see these mistakes When I see the truth, Darling trust me, when I can see I'll be coming back I'll be coming back Cause there are Heroes and Thieves at my door And I can't seem to tell them apart anymore Just when I figured it out Darling it's you oh, Darling it's you oh, Darling it's you I'm without...

Home Home Some people live in a house on the hill And wish they were some place else There's nobody there When the evening is still Secrets with no one to tell Some I have known have a ship where they sleep with sounds of rocks on the coast They sail over oceans five fathoms deep But can't find what they want the most Even now when I'm alone I've always known with you I am home Some live in towns Cardboard shack on concrete All bluster and bustling life They search for the color they can never quite see Cause it's all white on white Even now when I'm alone I've always known with you I am home For me it's a glance and the smile on your face the touch of your hands, And an honest embrace For where I lay it's you I keep, This changing world I fall asleep With you all I know is I'm coming home, Coming home... Vanessa Carlton |
More Than This More Than This Cradling stones hold fire bright As crickets call out to the moonlight As you lean in to steal a kiss I'll never need more than this We all share the pain of our histories But the ache goes away if you could see This night under stars, well, I call it peace If you say, I'll never need more than this The trees grow so thick You can barely see through But the forest bestows the simplest of truths You think you'll be happy if granted one more wish But the truth is you'll never need more, You'll never need more You'll never need more than this Want so much in this life, There's so much to be We sail through our youth so impatiently Until we see That the years move along And soldiers and heroes come home And they carry a song, Don't live in forgotten times May this always remind you Of the sea under the skies blue looking glass Let's make this our story, let's live in the glory Time, it fades away, Precious as a song Cause someday we'll be gone Cradling stones hold fire bright As we watch the glow of the morning light Someday our bones here they will lie, and so we sing As the years move along and soldiers and heroes come home And they carry a song Let's make this our story, Let's live in the glory Time, it fades away, Precious as a song Cause someday we'll be gone... Vanessa Carlton |
My Best My Best Mmmmmm We scream and shout and try to make it last Though it didn't work out, I don't love you any less My lover or friend, I wont ever tell Our secrets safe An unspoken citadel And in these broken times, well, It's so easy to forget So I sing to remind Upon my shoulder you can rest Cause I'll always give you my best A sidewalk's path leads me to you Though we don't look back, We hold on to a truth And in these broken times I promise I will not forget Though you're not mine Upon your shoulder I can rest Cause you always give me your best Like a promise kept It's like you never left It's like you never left And though it's been so long, I can't ever seem to forget All it takes is a song And I could swear I hear your steps Down the hall echoes a past Thatleaves an ache, It's never left Cause I gave you my best It's like you never left It's like you never left We scream and shout and try to make it last... Vanessa Carlton |
Nolita Fairytale Nolita Fairytale I know, you know, we don't see We sow our truth, wait patiently I walk the streets with a song in my head We ebb and we flow so Got my toes on my pup at the foot of my bed My heart always seems to know Now take the glitz back, I want the soul instead Cos I found some kind of fairytale I used to Hover outside my truth Always worry of what I'd lose Take away my record deal Go on, I don't need it Spent the last 2 years getting to what's real And now I can see so clear I hope you feel just like I feel I found some kind of fairytale Want a garden by the ocean tide Because I lose my way searching for stage lights Well, Stevie knows and I thank her so Cos it's your seeds I sow And now I know Nolita flat on rent control That's the life I choose And you drag me to the fashion show The poses that I see through The movies in the afternoon Cos I found some kind of fairytale Nolita Fairytale Ba da da da da da, Ba da da da da da Nolita Fairytale Ba da da da da da, Ba da da da da da Nolita Fairytale Nolita Fairytale...

Ordinary Day Ordinary Day Just a day, Just an ordinary day. Just trying to get by. Just a boy, Just an ordinary boy. But he was looking to the sky. And as he asked if I would come along I started to realize That everyday he finds Just what he's looking for, Like a shooting star he shines. He said take my hand, Live while you can Don't you see your dreams lie right in the palm of your hand And as he spoke, he spoke ordinary words Although they did not feel For I felt what I had not felt before And you'd swear those words could heal. And as I looked up into those eyes His vision borrows mine. And I know he's no stranger, For I feel I've held him for all of time. And he said take my hand, Live while you can Don't you see your dreams lie right in the palm of your hand In the palm of your hand. Please come with me, See what I see. Touch the stars for time will not flee Time will not flee. Can you see? Just a dream, just an ordinary dream As I wake in bed And the boy, that ordinary boy Or was it all in my head? Did he asked if I would come along It all seemed so real. But as I looked to the door, I saw that boy standing there with a deal And he said take my hand, Live while you can, Don't you see all your dreams lie right in the palm of your hand In the palm of your hand, In the palm of your hand Just a day, just an ordinary day Just trying to get by. Just a boy, Just an ordinary boy But he was looking to the sky... Vanessa Carlton |
Paint It Black Paint It Black I see a red door and I want it painted black No colors anymore, I want them to turn black I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes I have to turn my head until my darkness goes I see a line of cars and they are painted black With flowers and my love both never to come back I see people turn their heads and quickly look away Like a new born baby it just happens every day I look inside myself and see my heart is black I see my red door and it's heading into black Maybe then I'll fade away and not have to face the facts It's not easy facing up when your whole world is black I wanna see it painted painted, painted black, oh baby I wanna see it painted painted, painted black, oh baby No more will my green sea go turn a deeper blue I could not foresee this thing happening to you If I look hard enough into the setting sun My love will laugh with me before the morning comes I wanna see it painted, painted black, oh Black as night, black as coal I wanna see the sun blotted out from the sky Painted, painted, painted black oh baby Painted painted, painted black...

Paradise Paradise Once upon a year gone by She saw herself give in Every time she closed her eyes She saw what could have been Well nothing hurts and nothing bleeds When covers tucked in tight Funny when the bottom drops How she forgets to fight to fight And it's one more day in paradise One more day in paradise As darkness quickly steals the light That shined within her eyes She slowly swallows all her fear And soothes her mind with lies Well all she wants and all she needs Are reasons to survive A day in which the sun will take Her artificial light her light And it's one more day in paradise One more day in paradise İt's one more day in paradise One last chance to feel alright alright Don't pretend to hold it in just let it out Don't pretend to hold it in just push it out Don't you try to hold it in just let it out and Don't you try to hold it in you hold it in Once upon a year gone by She saw herself give in Every time she closed her eyes She saw what could have been...

Private Radio Private Radio Oh oh oh Oh oh oh Gotta get a little Gotta get a little All the world has gone to bed And I am drowning in it's silence But a solitude is in my head, from you, baby And if the silence was a song Well, its rhythm grooves and it's a private radio And on this night I did belong In harmony And you can't deny me And you will oblige me It's my melody When the night comes When no one knows I can hear it I've got my private radio Find me out of my pillow 'Cause I'm lyin' here, but I am ready good to go And on a whim I leave this town Or not, I'll stay and chase the sun now And you can't deny me And you will oblige me It's my melody When the night comes And no one knows I can hear it I've got my private radio Catch me, not care Can't call me later Morning's risin All the world has gone to bed And there's a sound inside my head And in the dark inside my bed And the melody that's in my head (When the night comes) There's a part of me no one will never know (And no one knows) And midnight comes and I know I'm on my own (I can hear it) There's a part of me no one will ever see (I've got my private radio) There's a part of me no one will ever leave be (My private radio) My private radio My private radio...

Rinse Rinse She'd do anything to sparkle in his eye She would suffer, she would fight, and compromise She's been wishin' on the stars that shine so bright For answers to the questions that will haunt her tonight She must rinse this all away She can't hold him this way She must rinse this all away She can't love him this way How she'd be soothed, how she'd be saved if he could see She needs to be held in his arms to be free But everything happens for reasons that she will never understand 'til she knows the heart of a woman will never be found in the arms of a man And if she runs away she fears she won't be followed What could be the worse than leaving something behind And as the depth of oceans slowly become shallow It's loneliness she finds If only he was mine She'd do anything to sparkle in his eye She would suffer, she would fight, and compromise She's been wishin' on the stars that shine so bright For answers to the questions that will haunt her tonight She must rinse him She must rinse him She can't rinse him She can't rinse him She can't, she won't, she must rinse him She can't, she won't, she must rinse him She must rinse this all away She can't hold him this way She must rinse this all away She can't love him this way...

The One The One Holiday and I come home I hope to see this boy I know I can't wait for us to be alone Flippin' through the radio We sing along to the indie show The songs they play mean more than I can say And the tape I made you, Hope you think of me when it plays through I'm kinda sad now that it's done You think my time is for free In all the ways you say to me, Sweet versions of let's wait and see You're always a golden boy And I'm the girl that you enjoy My parents say isn't he a gifted son Time is always passing By but still I have to wonder why You can't come to tell me I'm the one Summer goes and we have grown We have our friends, Live on our own Still I'm not the girl you want me to be Say gravity can bend the time, Funny, I always liked your mind But this whole thing is crushing me But you're always a golden boy And this girl's heart that you destroy You smile at me and then you have your fun Time is always passing, Still, I give you another try And hope that you will see that I'm the one You say you're scared to get too close Come let's see how it goes I see you now at the show, The 7th in, The 7th row Now you look at me And see what I've known for so long Sad that you could be so lovely and so wrong Came to say that I moved, I see your face you don't approve Guess you could say that I'm already gone But you'll always be my golden boy And I'm the summer girl that you enjoy Some melodies are best left undone I feel the time pass away But in my songs you will always stay I don't need you to tell me I'm the one I don't need you to tell me I'm the one You'll never know that I was the one...

The Wreckage The Wreckage Speeding Into the horizon Dreaming of the siren Wishing for her broken glass on the highway It could be so easy The rhythm Rhythm of an engine Always makes me empty I see the headlights coming at me I can't help but wonder Flying Flying in slow motion Wind through my hair And ripping through the scenery, oh, the wreckage It is my secret need Speeding Into the horizon Dreaming of the siren Wishing for her broken glass on the highway It could be so easy...

This Time This Time It's 4 a.m. and I'm wide awake Waiting for my thoughts to fade A flickering of all of my mistakes And as the light starts creeping in I slowly feel The day I'm missing But I wouldn't even know where to begin Do I push to hard? Or fall to fast? The moment never seems to last Will I stop long enough to know Everybody burns And when it starts to hurt, I cry I feel it in my veins I just can't walk away, This time Your words circle in my head Weigh so heavy on my chest And I'm crushed by your expectation I only want to do some good Too dumb to know if I could And I just wanna feel the days I'm in Do I go to far, Not far enough? Why can't I keep my big mouth shut? And do we lead the life that we should? Everybody burns And when it starts to hurt, I cry I feel it in my veins I just can't walk away, This time Did I say to much again? I'm just a girl in a panic If I tell you my truth Am I getting through? It just seems I should confess Who am I to pretend This is more than I can carry Everybody burns And when it starts to hurt, I cry I hold my head up high I know I'll be alright This time I feel it in my veins I just can't walk away This time This time, This time This time, This time It's 4 am and I'm wide awake Waiting for my thoughts to fade It's times like these I see your face...

Twilight Twilight I was stained, with a role, in a day not my own But as you walked into my life you showed what needed to be shown And I always knew, what was right I just didn't know that I might Peel away and choose to see with such a different sight And I will never see the sky the same way and I will learn to say good-bye to yesterday and I will never cease to fly if held down and I will always reach too high cause I've seen, cause I've seen, twilight Never cared never wanted Never sought to see what flaunted So on purpose so in my face Couldn't see beyond my own place And it was so easy not to behold what I could hold But you taught me I could change Whatever came within these shallow days And I will never see the sky the same way and I will learn to say goodbye to yesterday and I will never cease to fly if held down and I will always reach too high cause I've seen, cause I've seen As the sun shines through it pushes away and pushes ahead It fills the warmth of blue and leaves a chill instead and I didn't know that I could be so blind to all that is so real But as illusion dies I see there is so much to be revealed And I will never see the sky the same way and I will learn to say goodbye to yesterday and I will never cease to fly if held down and I will always reach too high cause I've seen, cause I've seen, twilight I was stained, by a role, in a day not my own But as you walked into my life you showed what needed to be shown And I always knew, what was right I just didn't know that I might Peel away and choose to see with such a different sight And I will never see the sky the same way and I will learn to say goodbye to yesterday and I will never cease to fly if held down and I will always reach too high cause I've seen, cause I've seen, twilight...

Wanted Wanted I have wandered far and wide For something real something to die for But I have found you and you do not see All that is me all that is true I am more than you will see, I am more than you will need, I am more than you will see, More than wanted As you float the flimsy surface You should know life lies beneath it Don't pretend you feel what I feel for you Live illusion and i am real I know, I know you like the way You feel when I play I know, I know you don't really Hear what I say I know, I know you are waiting For something to raid I know, I know you wish you could be More than you say I have wandered far and wide For something real something to die for But I have found you and you do not see All that is me all that is true and More than you'll love, more than you'll hate, More than you'll hold, more than wanted More than you'll crave, more than you'll cherish, More than you'll have, more than wanted...

White Houses White Houses Crashed on the floor when I moved in This little bungalow with some strange new friends Stay up too late, and I'm too thin We promise each other it's 'til the end Now we're spinning empty bottles It's the five of us With pretty eyed boys girls die to trust I can't resist the day No, I can't resist the day Jenny screams out and it's no pose 'Cause when she dances she goes and goes Beer through the nose on an inside joke And I'm so excited, I haven't spoken And she's so pretty, and she's so sure Maybe I'm more clever than a girl like her Summer's all in bloom Summer is ending soon It's alright and it's nice not to be so alone But I hold on to your secrets in white houses Maybe I'm a little bit over my head I come undone at the things he said And he's so funny in his bright red shirt We were all in love and we all got hurt I sneak into his car's cracked leather seat The smell of gasoline in the summer heat Boy, we're going way too fast It's all too sweet to last It's alright And I put myself in his hands But I hold on to your secrets in white houses Love, or something ignites in my veins And I pray it never fades in white houses My first time, hard to explain Rush of blood, oh, and a little bit of pain On a cloudy day, it's more common than you think He's my first mistake Maybe you were all faster than me We gave each other up so easily These silly little wounds will never mend I feel so far from where I've been So I go, and I will not be back here again I'm gone as the day is fading on white houses I lied, wrote my injuries all in the dust In my heart is the five of us In white houses And you, maybe you'll remember me What I gave is yours to keep In white houses...

Who's To Say Who's To Say Stand up straight Do your trick Turn on the stars Jupiter shines so bright When you're around they tell us slow down, We're too young you need to grow The speed's the key And they don't know who we are And who's to say that we're not good enough? And who's to say that this is not our love? Mother don't tell me friends are the ones that I lose 'Cause they'd bleed before you And sometimes family are the ones you'd choose It's too late now I hold on to this life I found And who's to say we won't burn it out? And who's to say we won't sink in doubt? Who's to say that we won't fade to gray? Who are they anyway? Anyway they don't know And you say we're too young, but maybe you're too old to remember And I try to pretend but I just feel it when we're together And if you don't believe me, you never really knew us You never really knew You and I, packin' up my room, we feel alright But we're not welcome, soon We'll be drivin', 'cause they don't know who we are Who's to say we won't stay together? Who's to say we aren't getting stronger? Who's to say I can't live without you? Who are they anyway? Anyway they don't know And you say we're too young, but maybe you're too old to remember And I try to pretend, but I just feel it when we're together Who is to say? And who is to say? And who are they anyway? Stand up boy, I shine so bright when you're around... Vanessa Carlton |
