Lenka Lyrics

Nothing Here But Love lyrics - Lenka

Lying under setting sun

The day is done, my heart is won

We hold each other, friends or lovers

High above, there's nothing here

But you and me, we'll never end

We're innocent, we're heaven-sent

We're born together, dying together

Live forever, there's nothing here but…

Love, sweet love

It's all we know, so can I show you

Love, sweet love

Take time to grow, there's nothing here but love

Take me where the days are fun

Where everyone knows everyone

We'll love together, live together

We will never be let down

Oh you will see it's meant to be

We're living life, we're wild and free

We're falling under, right from under

Oh my darling there's nothing here but…

Love, sweet love

It's all we know, so can I show you

Love, sweet love

Take time to grow, there's nothing here but love

Can you whisper into my ear

The words that I love to hear?

Love, sweet love

It's all we know, so can I show you

Love, sweet love

Take time to grow, there's nothing here but…

Love, sweet love

It's all we know, so can I show you

Love, my love

Take time to grow, there's nothing here but love

There's nothing here but love, love

Faster With You lyrics - Lenka

You stay just where you are

While I'm away from home

But I take you in my heart

Just like a placebo, oh

It's not enough, no

To fill me up

I need you by my side

To speed the lonely nights

Yeah, ooh

Things go faster, faster with you...

And though the thread is long

That holds us together

Well it's flexible and strong

But it slows us down, oh

Time flies, it's true

But just when I'm with you

Yeah, I need you by my side

To speed the lonely nights

Yeah, ooh

Things go faster, faster oh

As I try (as hard as I try)

I can't seem to shake the feeling

That you're all that I require

And yeah, so I try (as hard as I try)

To imagine that you're with me, oh

Things go faster...

Things go faster, faster with you

Heart To The Party lyrics - Lenka

[Verse 1:]

Once I woke up, I could see the dream was real

The key fit the lock and then all that I could feel

Was the moon shining bright on the midnight trees

And I’m sailing along on the deep blue seas

[Chorus:]

So, bring your heart to the party

I wanna dance all night in the darkness, darling

Bring your heart to the party

[Verse 2:]

I wanna dance like I hope tomorrow will never come

And fall like a star that knows its time is gone

As it toss through the air burning all the way

And I’m saying I cry for the shine and day

Just close your eyes

Here will be alright

Just close your eyes

[Chorus:]

And bring your heart to the party

I wanna dance all night in the darkness, darling

Bring your heart to the party

I wanna dance all night in the darkness, darling

Bring your heart to the party

I wanna dance all night in the darkness, darling

Darling, darling

After The Winter lyrics - Lenka

When the rain is falling down

And there are snowflakes on your cheeks

When your heart is frozen over

And there is a sea lost sun in weeks

Just remember, just remember,

After the winter comes the spring

That is when the blue birds starts to sing

And you can always count on this

After the winter comes the spring

When the trees have lost the color

And the sky is full of fears

When you feel you are going under

And your eyes are full of tears

When the bells are all hiding

And you are hiding too

Oh, darling just remember

That everything will soon be new, because

After the winter comes the spring

That is when the blue birds

Start to use their wings

And you can always count on this

After the winter comes the spring

Just remember, just remember,

After the winter comes the spring

That is when the blue birds

Starts to sing

And you can always count on this

After the winter comes the spring

Find A Way To You lyrics - Lenka

You are wrapped in a cocoon

While I'm blowing kisses at the moon

All of the secrets that you hold

Will disappear in one rainy afternoon

Don't be foolish

I will find a way to you

I will peel away

Peel away the layers that you build up around you

I don't feel the way

I'm supposed to feel when you push me away the way you do

I will tunnel straight for your heart

And I will blow this whole thing apart

Don't be foolish

I will find a way to you

You are hidden in your shell,

While I'm throwing coins at the wishing well

If you think you'll get away with this

Just look into my eyes and see that I am serious

No, don't be foolish

I will find a way to you

I will peel away

Peel away the layers that you build up around you

I don't feel the way

I'm supposed to feel when you push me away the way you do

Oh I will tunnel straight for your heart

And I will blow this whole thing apart

Don't be foolish

I will find a way to you

It isn't easy excavating every day

But I will find a way to you

You have your reasons to be hiding away

But I have my reasons too

I will peel away

Peel away the layers that you build up around you

I don't feel the way

I'm supposed to feel when you push me away the way you do

Oh I will tunnel straight for your heart

And I will blow this whole thing so far apart

Don't be foolish

I will find a way to you

You are wrapped in a cocoon

While I'm blowing kisses at the moon

Honeybee lyrics - Lenka

You're like a honeybee

Bringing me something sweet

But why do you have to sting me?

'Cause all my skin is fragile when you're near

But I am feeling numb without you here

So don't you lose your way

Follow the light of day

Navigate the radio waves

And let the wind bring you back to me

Oh I'm like a hummingbird

Humming away the hurt

But it won't be long before I fall to the earth

Because oh I'm feeling numb without you here

So don't you lose your way

Follow the light of day

Navigate the radio waves

And let the wind bring you back to me

Do you know you bring me so much pain?

Does the way you show you love me feel the same?

So don't you lose your way

Darling, follow the light of day

Navigate the radio waves

And let the wind bring you back to me

Please let the wind bring you back to me

No Harm Tonight lyrics - Lenka

Healthy is the heart that goes on,

Even when everything feels so wrong

Turn off your senses

And let go of all those defenses you built up so strong

Lucky is the one who breaks free

Free from himself and his hopes and his fears

Take from your shoulders

The weight that you don't need to hold anymore cause I'm here

I'll be your protection, darling

Nothing will harm you tonight

All of your darkness will turn into light

Your shadows will fly away

Your ships will sail away

No, nothing will harm you tonight

Happy is the heart that holds on

Onto the knowledge that it won't be long

Until I'm back in your arms

And you'll make like a guardian through till the dawn

You'll be my protection, darling

Nothing will harm you tonight

All of your darkness will turn into light

Your shadows will fly away

Your ships will sail away

No, nothing will harm you tonight

Crumble like ashes away from the fire

I'm here to catch you and hold you a while

I'll just hold you a while

Nothing will harm you tonight

All of your darkness will turn into light

Your shadows will fly away

Your ships will sail away

No, nothing will harm you tonight

Nothing will harm you tonight

No, nothing will harm you tonight

Two Heartbeats lyrics - Lenka

Here I am in my oasis

Here I am, my private stasis

Waking up in darkness

Making my own consciousness

Here I am in my perfection

I wait for my new direction

Wait until the time is right

Like a fruit tree grow and ripe

You made me out of love

Here I am, a part of

You and your other half

You made this light to spark

Two heartbeats, one body

Here I am in my oasis

Here I am, my private stasis

Waking up in darkness

Making my own consciousness

Monsters lyrics - Lenka

Don't be afraid of what's under the bed

It's just all those memories you try to forget

Those feelings of shame and the ones of regret

No, don't be afraid of what's under the bed

Don't be afraid of what's behind the curtain

It's just all those times when you thought you were certain

And then your bravado gave way to the heart

And no, don't be afraid of what's behind the curtain

Don't be afraid of what's in the wardrobe

It's all of the paths but the one that you chose

Come back to haunt you and make you feel old

No, don't be afraid of what's in the wardrobe

No, don't be afraid of what's under the bed

Nothing lyrics - Lenka

There's a space in the world

Where you used to be

And it will never never never be filled

When death called your name

And it took you from me

You should never never never believe

That I could I go on alone

'Cause now that you are gone

I've got nothing but the rain

And I've got nothing but the grey

I've got nothing but the same old memories that we made

And there's nothing I can do

To keep my hold on you

And nothing will ever take your place

And nothing will be the same again

There's a hole in my heart

Where you used to be

And it will never never never be filled

And I don't know what they say

They are spirits set free

And you will never never never feel

The pain of this world but who are we

To ask you not to leave

When we've got nothing but the rain

We've got nothing but the grey

And we've got nothing but the same old memories that we made

And there's nothing we can do

To keep our hold on you

And nothing will ever take your place

And nothing will be the same again

I've got nothing but the rain

And I've got nothing but the grey

I've got nothing but the same old memories that we made

And there's nothing I can do

To keep my hold on you

And nothing will ever take your place

And nothing will be the same again

Will be the same again

The Top Of Memory Lane lyrics - Lenka

To set the record straight

My head will be a library

Where you'll find me

To let it slip away

Would be a tragedy

'Cause that is where you'll find me

I'll meet you at the top of memory lane

And we'll be fine if you'll recall my name

I'll meet you at the top of memory lane

To fall a little more into what we learned before

Now, in the early hours

To call it what it's called

A moment to remember

Way back when

I'll meet you at the top of memory lane

And all the doors you could open and see what's behind them

And all the ways that you could show her why you feel beneath her

And all the time to cover up the truth I've hidden in there

And all the things you learned so why don't you forget the ending

I'll meet you at the top of memory lane

And we'll be fine if you'll recall my name

I'll meet you at the top of memory lane

Dreamer's Serenade lyrics - Lenka

What would you say to a couple of days

With wind in our sails we'll be carried away

Life is but a dreamer's serenade

Give me your hand and try to understand

It could be true for me and you

Life is but a dreamer's serenade

We'll be rowing a boat down a river if you please

We will stop to hear the wind rush through the trees

What do you think if we grow some wings

And fly up into the sky

Life is but a dreamer's serenade

We'll be having the time of our lives in paradise

Can you see the sun reflected in my eyes?

Give me your hand and try to understand

It could be true for me and you

Life is but a dreamer's serenade

I know, life is but a dreamer's serenade

Life is but a dreamer's serenade

Two lyrics - Lenka

Two, now that I'm with you

Another point of view

Instead of what I knew

Oh two, whatever will we do

I don't see a way through

But you're the one I choose

I never knew what double could do

But things are better, so much better

Hold me closer, never let me go

I don't want any other baby

Two is the one, two is the one

I was lonely, never had nobody

But now I've got double, baby

Two is the one, two is the one for me

One, never had so much fun

Staying up till sun

Banging on my own drum

One, always looking for love

And ending up with none

Made me come undone

I never knew what double could do

But things are better, so much better with two

Hold me closer, never let me go

I don't want any other baby

Two is the one, two is the one

I was lonely, never had nobody

But now I've got double, baby

Two is the one, two is the one for me

Two, a couple, not a few

Well, this is something new

If I can deal with it then so can you

I never knew what double could do

But things are better, so much better

Hold me closer, never let me go

I don't want any other baby

Two is the one, two is the one

I was lonely, never had nobody

But now I've got double, baby

I never knew what double could do

But things are better, so much better with two

So much better with two

Heart Skips A Beat lyrics - Lenka

Heart skips a beat

My heart skips a beat

My heart is playing tricks on me

And it’s building bricks on me

I can’t break through

And I can’t face you

My world is turning slowly now

But it’s burning up somehow

I need some time

To know what’s right

‘Cause it’s only in the quiet that I feel some relief

I’m trying hard not to resist the joy

Don’t listen to me I’m being paranoid

I might try hard but it’s too hard to avoid

My heart skips a beat

My heart is always first to know

And as the feeling grows

I can’t deny push those thoughts aside

My world is full of loveliness

But I focus on the stress

My heart says “Go” but my brain says “No”

And it’s only in the quiet that I hear myself breathe

I’m trying hard not to resist the joy

Don’t listen to me I’m being paranoid

I might try hard but it’s too hard to avoid

My heart skips a beat

Oh I know this time ’cause it’s physical

My blood has stopped and I am breathless as well

But I need a minute to convince myself

‘Cause it’s only in the quiet that I know what to feel

I’m trying hard not to resist the joy

Don’t listen to me I’m being paranoid

I might try hard but it’s too hard to avoid

My heart skips a beat

I’m trying hard not to resist the joy

Don’t listen to me I’m being paranoid

I might try hard but it’s too hard to avoid

My heart skips a beat

Roll With The Punches lyrics - Lenka

Roll, roll with the punches

That really hurt me

Like a fist to the face

I wasn't ready

To be knocked out of place

Suddenly everything I was sure of

Sinking below the depths of the surface

It's unexpected, it usually is

When you're rejected

Or you take a hit

Suddenly everything's thrown in a spin

No time to grow a thicker skin

What kind of situation am I in now?

[Chorus]

When life tries to knock all the wind out of you

You've got to roll, roll, roll with the punches

If all life offers is black and blue

You've got to roll, roll, roll with the punches

Little weapons over the phone

They like to threaten the life that I know

They say get over here and get into the ring

But I'm not really much a fighter

My mechanisms of defense are down

My resistance is out on the town

I was alarmed by your attack

This isn't a boxing match

But I'll be damned if I ever let you win

[Chorus]

When life tries to knock all the wind out of you

You've got to roll, roll, roll with the punches

If all life offers is black and blue

You've got to roll, roll, roll with the punches

When all I want is a little stability

Some time without any bruises

You go and tell me the things that I don't want to hear

Putting your fist into my ears

Filling me up with the dread and the fear leaving you all in pieces

Suddenly everything's thrown in a spin

No time to grow a thicker skin

What kind of situation am I in now?

[Chorus]

When life tries to knock all the wind out of you

You've got to roll, roll, roll with the punches

If all life offers is black and blue

You've got to hold, hold, hold your head up high

When life tries to knock all the wind out of you

You've got to roll, roll, roll with the punches

If all life offers is black and blue

You've got to roll, roll, roll with the punches

Sad Song lyrics - Lenka

Don't tell me you wanna be

The kind of girl who's drowning

And don't go holding on to anything

That's gonna keep you frowning, darling

Everyone's compelled to look into the mirror

When they're crying

Just because your tears are pretty

Doesn't mean they'll get you by

Sing me a sad song and make me feel better

Sing me a happy song and I might start to cry

Because everything feels like it's going around in circles

And everyone knows that the world is upside down

You were once a little baby

Full of optimistic wonder

So what got into you to make you think

That it could pull you under, honey

Could it be that we were under

The impression life was perfect?

(La, la, la, la, la)

And when the bubble burst

We understood that every part of it hurts

Sing me a sad song and make me feel better

Sing me a happy song and I might start to cry

Because everything feels like it's going around in circles

And everyone knows that the world is upside down

I'm going to color my glasses rose

And I'm going to follow where the rainbow goes

And my pot of gold will be waiting

Sing me a sad song and make me feel better

Sing me a happy song and I might start to cry

Because everything feels like it's going around in circles

And everyone knows that the world is upside down

Yeah, everyone knows the world is upside down

Everything At Once lyrics - Lenka

As sly as a fox, as strong as an ox

As fast as a hare, as brave as a bear

As free as a bird, as neat as a word

As quiet as a mouse, as big as a house

All I wanna be, all I wanna be, oh

All I wanna be is everything

As mean as a wolf, as sharp as a tooth

As deep as a bite, as dark as the night

As sweet as a song, as right as a wrong

As long as a road, as ugly as a toad

As pretty as a picture hanging from a fixture

Strong like a family, strong as I wanna be

Bright as day, as light as play

As hard as nails, as grand as a whale

All I wanna be oh, all I wanna be, oh

All I wanna be is everything

Everything at once

Everything at once, oh

Everything at once

As warm as the sun, as silly as fun

As cool as a tree, as scary as the sea

As hot as fire, cold as ice

Sweet as sugar and everything nice

As old as time, as straight as a line

As royal as a queen, as buzzed as a bee

As stealth as a tiger, smooth as a glider

Pure as a melody, pure as I wanna be

All I wanna be oh, all I wanna be, oh

All I wanna be is everything

Everything at once

Blinded By Love lyrics - Lenka

I came home and nothing was right

It's been a while since a fight

Well, maybe tonight my need for love

Can cloud my sight

And I say things out of spite

Or I push you aside

No, I don't know how to fix it

I am falling apart and I am breaking your heart

Help me to see

'Cause I am blinded by love, blinded by love

And help me to be the one to guide us

Through the dark things we do

Now I know I can be tough sometimes

My words come out like knives

Cutting the space between us

And you try, yeah, I know you try

To just let things slide

But what good is that to us?

Oh, oh, I don't know

I am falling apart and I am breaking your heart

Help me to see

'Cause I am blinded by love, blinded by love

And help me to be the one to guide us

Through the dark things we do

Oh, I don't know what possibly changed

We were so good, so good

And where is the light at the end of this tunnel

'Cause I am falling apart and I am breaking your heart

Help me to see

'Cause I am blinded by love, blinded by love

And help me to be the one to guide us

Through the dark things we do

Here To Stay lyrics - Lenka

I don't know anymore

I don't know what I've been fighting for

But something inside me won't go quietly

And I could be anywhere

'Cause we're all breathing the same air

It goes inside and makes me feels alive

And all I can say is, all I can say

I am here and I will be

Following my own way

Forever and a day

I am here and I'm here to stay

Oh, we are here and we will be

Following our own way

No matter what you say

We are here and we're here to stay

We are here to stay

No matter where you roam

Anywhere you lay your heart's your home

Stand your ground if they push you down

Because all you can say is, all you can say

We are here and we will be

Following our own way

No matter what you say

We are here and we're here to stay

We are real and we feel it

When you deny us

Or when you get tired of us

We are here and we're here to stay

We are here to stay

I never knew when enough was enough

Or whether to stay when the going was tough

But I won't let a little heart be afraid

And all I can say is, all I can say

I am here and I will be

Following my own way

Forever and a day

I am here and I'm here to stay

Oh, we are here and we will be

Following our own way

No matter what you say

We are here and we're here to stay

We are here to stay

You Will Be Mine lyrics - Lenka

She moved in to the house next door

Said she'd never been in love before

Tried the best she could to hide herself away

But every time she turned the lights down low

He thought he heard a voice calling out so slow

Come and take me away from all this pain

And he said

I see you sitting there at the window sill

Looking for shooting stars

I wanna get closer and closer still

I wanna take over your heart

You will be mine, mine

Over time, time

You're gonna find, find

I'll make you mine, mine

Every morning when she came outside

He tried to be the one to catch her eye

But she would only turn away and hide

He started to concoct a plan

To get her to return the feelings that he had

To show her how he thought they were entwined

I see you sitting there at the window sill

Looking for shooting stars

I wanna get closer and closer still

I wanna take over your heart

You will be mine, mine

Over time, time

You're gonna find, find

I'll make you mine, mine

Little love letters written in red

Folded up, put away next to the bed, oh

Little crushed hopes every day

Waiting in the wings to spirit her away

Shock Me Into Love lyrics - Lenka

Oh, oh, oh

Just when you think that it will never get you

It comes and throws a lightning bolt right at you

Before you know it now your pulse starts racing

And now your blood is running hot like crazy

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Give it everything, everything that you've got

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Give it everything, everything that you've got

No, I never knew that I could feel this way

No, I never had it running through my veins

No, I never thought that it could be enough

Suddenly you, you shock me into love, into love

It's waiting for you right around the corner

It doesn't have the decency to warn ya

It comes along and taps you on the shoulder

You fall into the arms that now will hold ya

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Give it everything, everything that you've got

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Give it everything, everything that you've got

No, I never knew that I could feel this way

No, I never had it running through my veins

No, I never thought that it could be enough

Suddenly you, you shock me into love

Oh, oh, oh, into love

Oh, oh, oh

Electricity shoots from you to me

No, I never knew that I could feel this way

No, I never had it running through my veins

No, I never thought that it could be enough

Suddenly you, you shock me into love

No, I never knew that I could feel this way

No, I never had it running through my veins

No, I never thought that it could be enough

Suddenly you, you shock me into love

Oh, oh, oh, into love

Everything's Okay lyrics - Lenka

Keep giving me hope for a better day

Keep giving me love to find a way

Through this heaviness I feel

I just need someone to say, everything's okay

Woke my weary head

Crawled out of my bed

And I said, "Oh, how do I go on?"

Nothing's going right, shadow's took the light

And I said, "Oh, how do I go on?"

Sometimes I need a little sunshine

And sometimes I need you

Keep giving me hope for a better day

Keep giving me love to find a way

Through this messy life I made for myself

Heaven knows I need a little

Hope for a better day

A little love to find a way

Through this heaviness I feel

I just need someone to say, everything's okay

(Everything's ok)

I gave my hope to you

When you were nearly through

And you said, "Oh, I can't go on"

Well, now I need it back

'Cause I have got a lack of all that's good

And I can't go on

Yeah, sometimes I just need a little sunshine

And sometimes I need you

Keep giving me hope for a better day

Keep giving me love to find a way

Through this messy life I made for myself

Heaven knows I need a little

Hope for a better day

A little love to find a way

Through this heaviness I feel

I just need someone to say, everything's okay

(Everything's okay, everything's okay)

Sometimes I need a little sunshine

And sometimes I need you

Keep giving me hope for a better day

Keep giving me love to find a way

Through this messy life I made for myself

Heaven knows I need a little

Hope for a better day

A little love to find a way

Through this messy life I made for myself

Heaven knows I need a little

Hope for a better day

A little love to find a way

Through this heaviness I feel

I just need someone to say, everything's okay

End Of The World lyrics - Lenka

At the end of the world

I will be there with you

And we'll throw a party to celebrate

The things we used to do

Like living life, breathing air

Running your fingers through my hair

Oh, this isn't fair

At the end of the world

I will hold you so close

So we won't notice the destruction

Of all we used to know

We will close our eyes

As the waters rise

We'll float away and you will say

"Oh, isn't this nice?"

Ah, at the end of the world

We'll be together, be together

Ah, if I can spend it with you

Then the end of the world don't matter at all

At the end of the world

We will kiss for the last time

And we won't feel the earth collapse into

A mess of flood and fire

We'll be making love

As the sky above falls down over us

We'll be the luckiest ones

At the end of the world

I will be there with you

And we'll throw a party to celebrate

The things we used to do

At the end of the world

I will be there with you

And we'll throw a party to celebrate

The things we used to do

Maybe I Love You lyrics - Lenka

Maybe I love you, maybe I do

Maybe this feeling inside me is true

And if I love you, and if I do

Then maybe baby maybe you love me too

I knew I liked you, I knew I cared

And I knew that something was brewing in the air

But I don't fall easily, too many betrayed me

But maybe I love you, maybe I do

Maybe this feeling inside me is true

And if I love you, and if I do

Then maybe baby maybe you love me too

I wasn't feeling quite like myself

And something inside me was sitting on the shelf

But then you swam into my heart

And now the good step starts

Oh woo

Yeah maybe I love you, maybe I do

Maybe this feeling inside me is true

And if I love you, and if I do

Oh then maybe baby maybe you love me too

How can I know for sure

That you and I are meant for something more

And I oh, I have to go on this, this feeling inside

And I hope that I am, I hope that I am right

Maybe I love you, maybe I do

Maybe this feeling inside me is true

And if I love you, and if I do

Oh then maybe baby maybe you love me

Maybe baby maybe you love me

Maybe baby maybe you love me too

Wrote Me Out lyrics - Lenka

You're the star of your own movie

And I am the star of mine

You play the part, sing the tune and speak the dialogue

And you write every storyline

And you wrote me out

Let it be said, it's all in my head

And you will forget about me

I never got through

Try playing with you

But I am not in your story

Ooh, I don't know, I don't feel anything, anymore

I am not here, and I am not there

'Cause I am not in your story

Ooh oh oh oh oh oh

I should have seen it coming

By the way that you looked at me

With those eyes distracted by the lonely life you live

Well, I am not welcome clearly

Yeah you wrote me out

Let it be said, it's all in my head

And you will forget about me

I never got through

Try playing with you

But I am not in your story

Ooh, I don't know, I don't feel anything, anymore

I am not here, and I am not there

'Cause I am not in your story oooh

I was so blind to think that you'll be mine

And I could be yours

But now it's time that I stopped to write my own story

And I will not write a part for you

Ah-oo

Let it be said, it's all in my head

And you will forget about me

I never got through

Try playing with you

But I am not in your story

Let it be said, it's all in my head

And you will forget about me

I never got through

Try playing with you

But I am not in your story

Ooh, I don't know, I don't feel anything, anymore

I am not here, and I am not there

'Cause I am not in your story

All My Bells Are Ringing lyrics - Lenka

Mistletoe and holly

Deck the halls

But you

Don't come around

And you don't call

Well

It's just

Like the season

To be lonely

And my heart

Is beating

For you only

Take my heart

This Christmas

And wrap it

In a ribbon

And a bow

Yes

Take my heart

This Christmas

Take it

Where ever you go

Everybody

Has someone to hold

Nestle by the fire

In from the cold

But I don't hear

The carols

They are singing

And I've only

Got one thing good

For giving

So take my heart

This Christmas

And wrap it

In a ribbon

And a bow

Yes

Take my heart

This Christmas

Take it

Where ever you go

All my bells

Are ringing

Just for you

And I got

No desire

For someone new

So take my heart

This Christmas

And wrap it

In a ribbon

And a bow

Yes

Take my heart

This Christmas

Take

Where ever you go

Take it

Where ever you go

Pull Me Apart lyrics - Lenka

You pull me apart

You break me in half

Every time you leave

I'm a broken heart

And I'll stay that way till I see you when

You'll put me all back together again

Woa-oh

All that I have

And all that I am

Would be nothing without you baby

You are the one

You are the only one

That can make me whole

Yea you make me whole

But there's only one problem with this situation

When you go

I can't go on

You pull me apart

You break me in half

Every time you leave

I'm a broken heart

And I'll stay that way till I see you when

You'll put me all back together again

'cause I'm like a world with no windows

A bed with no pillows

I'm a kiss with no kiss back

I'm a sea with no fishes

I am like spring with no flowers

I'm a day with no hours

I am incomplete

Mmm give me a sign

That I will be fine

When I see you walking away from me

'cause you have a piece

A piece of my heart

That you take with you

Yea you take with you

You pull me apart

You break me in half

Every time you leave

I'm a broken heart

And I'll stay that way till I see you when

You'll put me all back together again

You pull me apart

Oh you break me in half

Every time you leave

Well I am a broken heart

And I'll stay that way till I see you when

You will put me all back together again

Deep Blue lyrics - Lenka

(originally by Arcade Fire)

Here, in my place and time

And here, in my own skin

I can finally begin

Let the century pass me by

Standing under a night sky

Tomorrow means nothing

I was only a child then

Feeling barely alive when

I heard a song from the speaker of a passing car

Been praying to a dying star

The memory's fading

I can almost remember singing la, la la, la la, la la

La, la la, la la, la la

Oooh

We watched the end of the century

Compressed on a tiny screen

A dead star collapsing and we could see

That something was ending

Are you through pretending?

We saw its signs in the suburbs

You could never predict it

That it could see through you

Kasparov, Deep Blue, nineteen-ninety six

Your mind's playing tricks now

The show is over so take a bow

We're living in the shadows la, la la, la la, la la

La, la la, la la, la la

Oooh

Hey

Put the cellphone down for a while

In the night there's something wild

Can you hear it breathing?

And hey

Put the laptop down for a while

In the night there's something wild

I can feel it's leaving me

La, la la, la la la la

Oooh

Hold Me 'Til Christmas lyrics - Lenka

A year has come and gone

As December rose along

Oh, Christmas wishes fill the air

Oh my, the list has grown

Some shiny jewels to wear

Or a giant teddy bear

Fantastic magic gadgets

Or an empty box just filled with air

'Cause maybe all I want

Is someone to be there, from now on

You must be heaven sent

'Cause my hope is almost spent

Can you hold me 'til Christmas comes?

The sun sets on the day

As the stars come out to play

And the tree we decorated

Lights up the room as if to say

All your hearts desires

All that you require

Will be yours this Christmas day

So come let's chase those blues away

But maybe all I want

Is someone to be there, from now on

You must be heaven sent

'Cause my hope is almost spent

Can you hold me 'til Christmas comes?

Like a fire, you keep me warm

You're my shelter from the storm

You're my favorite song to sing

You're my everything

Every hope and dream

Come true...

Maybe all I want

Is someone to be there, from now on

You must be heaven sent

'Cause my hope is almost spent

Can you hold me 'til Christmas?

Wont you hold me 'til Christmas?

Can you hold me 'til Christmas comes?

The Show lyrics - Lenka

I'm just a little bit caught in the middle

Life is a maze and love is a riddle

I don't know where to go; can't do it alone; I've tried

And I don't know why

Slow it down

Make it stop

Or else my heart is going to pop

'Cause it's too much

Yeah, it's a lot

To be something I'm not

I'm a fool

Out of love

'Cause I just can't get enough

I'm just a little bit caught in the middle

Life is a maze and love is a riddle

I don't know where to go; can't do it alone; I've tried

And I don't know why

I'm just a little girl lost in the moment

I'm so scared but I don't show it

I can't figure it out

It's bringing me down I know

I've got to let it go

And just enjoy the show

The sun is hot

In the sky

Just like a giant spotlight

The people follow the sign

And synchronize in time

It's a joke

Nobody knows

They've got a ticket to the show

Yeah

I'm just a little bit caught in the middle

Life is a maze and love is a riddle

I don't know where to go; can't do it alone; I've tried

And I don't know why

I'm just a little girl lost in the moment

I'm so scared but I don't show it

I can't figure it out

It's bringing me down I know

I've got to let it go

And just enjoy the show

Just enjoy the show

I'm just a little bit caught in the middle

Life is a maze and love is a riddle

I don't know where to go; can't do it alone; I've tried

And I don't know why

I'm just a little girl lost in the moment

I'm so scared but I don't show it

I can't figure it out

It's bringing me down I know

I've got to let it go

And just enjoy the show

Dum de dum

Dudum de dum

Just enjoy the show

Dum de dum

Dudum de dum

Just enjoy the show

I want my money back

Just enjoy the show

I want my money back

Just enjoy the show

Bring Me Down lyrics - Lenka

So, here we are again

Staring at the end of what we made and who we are

Never knowing when

One of us will break apart and walk the other way love

I don't know what to say love

I don't know how to stay when you won't

Let me be the person I am

The writing's on the wall

There's nothing to say anymore

So I'll leave before I fall apart right back into your arms

The writing's on the wall

You gave nothing and I gave it all

But I want something better

And I won't let this burden bring me down

What are we to do

What are we to say to one another now we're through

Thanks for being you

Thanks for being all the things I had to say goodbye to

I'm over being lied to

I'm over being pushed into the

Person that you want me to become

The writing's on the wall

There's nothing to say anymore

So I'll leave before I fall apart right back into your arms

The writing's on the wall

You gave nothing and I gave it all

But I want something better

And I won't let this burden bring me down

Where did we go wrong

We let it go so long

But now there's no point turning back

Let's face the facts

The writing's on the wall

There's nothing to say anymore

So I'll leave before I fall apart right back into your arms

The writing's on the wall

You gave nothing and I gave it all

But I want something better

And I won't let this burden bring me

I won't let this burden bring me

I won't let this burden bring me down

Skipalong lyrics - Lenka

So tired of feeling blue

Such a heavy weight on you

So shake it off and make your way to somewhere different

To somewhere different

Oh no now you're leaving me oh what will you do

All alone in the big bad world but I'm not worried, no

'Cause you're gonna skip along

Quite merrily baby, you're gonna revel in hating what's going on

And you're like a sugar bomb

And no harm will come

No harm will come if you just skip along

Acting oblivious

Comes natural to us

Keep smiling knowing all the while the world will fall apart

The world will fall apart

So we're gonna skip along

Quite merrily baby we're gonna revel in hating what's going on

Yeah you're like a sugar bomb

And no harm will come

No harm will come if you just skip along

Wouldn't it be lovely to be home home

Safe and sound with no one round to bring us down but that's so far away

So I'm gonna skip along

Quite merrily baby, I'm gonna revel in hating what's going on

Yeah I'm like a sugar bomb

And no harm will come

No harm will come if I just skip along

Just skip along

Quite merrily

Don't Let Me Fall lyrics - Lenka

Underneath the moon

Underneath the stars

Here's a little heart

For you

Up above the world

Up above it all

Here's a hand to hold on to

But if i should break

If i should fall away

What am i to do

I need someone to take

A little of the weight

Or I'll fall through

You're just the one that I've been waiting for

I'll give you all that I have to give and more

But don't let me fall

Take a little time

Walk a little line

Got the balance right aha

Give a little love

Gimme just enough

So that i can hang on tight

We will be alright

I'll be by your side

I won't let you down

But i gotta know

No matter how things go

That you will be around

You're just the one that i've been waiting for

I'll give you all that i have to give and more

But don't let me fall

Don't let me fall

Underneath the moon

Underneath the stars

Here's a little heart

For you

Up above the world

Up above it all

Here's a hand to hold on to

You're just the one that I've been waiting for

I'll give you all that I have to give and more

But don't let me fall

You'll be the one that I'll love forever more

I'll be here holding you high above it all

But don't let me fall

Anything I'm Not lyrics - Lenka

I will never be

I will never be tall

And I will never be

Never ever

Be sure of it all

Oh, why is the world

So cruel to me

When all

All I ever want to be

Is anything I'm not

Gimme a break

A little escape

I am so tired

Of being me

I wanna be free

I wanna be new

And different

Anything I'm not

I'm not

I will never be

I will never be you

I will always be

I will always be me

That I know

But oh

Even though

I'm happy being me

I want to get away

From all

This harsh reality

Gimme a break

A little escape

I am so tired

Of being me

I wanna be free

I wanna be new

And different

Anything I'm not

Yeah

Gimme a break

A little escape

I am so tired

Of being me

I wanna be free

I wanna be new

And different

Anything I'm not

Gimme a break

A little escape

I am so tired

Of being me

I wanna be free

I wanna be new

And different

Anything I'm not

Yeah

Gimme a break

A little escape

I am so tired

Of being me

I wanna be free

I wanna be new

And different

Anything I'm not

Knock Knock lyrics - Lenka

A second

A minute

An hour

A day goes by

I'm hopin'

Just to be by your side

I'm turnin'

The handle

It won't open

Don't make me wait

Cause right now

I need your smile

Knock knock

When life had locked me out

I turned to you

So open the door

'Cause you're all I need right now it's true

Nothin' works like you

Little louder

Little louder knockin'

Little louder

A warm bath

A good laugh

An old song

That you know by heart

I've tried it

But they all leave me cold

So now I'm

Here waiting

To see you,

My remedy

For all that's

Been hurting me.

When life had locked me out

I turned to you

So open the door

'Cause you're all I need right now it's true

Nothin' works like you

You seem to know the way

To turn my frown

Upside down

You always know what to say

To make me feel like everything's okay

Little louder

Little louder knockin' (oh oh)

Little louder

Little louder knockin'

Little louder

When life had locked me out

I turned to you

And you open the door

'Cause you're all I need right now it's true

Nothin' works like you

When life had knocked me down

Well I turned to you

And you open the door

'Cause you're all I need right now it's true

Nothin' works like you

Little louder

Little louder knockin'

Little louder

Nothin' works like you, oh oh

Little louder knockin'

Little louder

Little louder knockin'

Little louder

Little louder knockin'

When life had locked me out

Well I turned to you

And you open the door

You're all I need right now it's true

Nothin' works like you

Dangerous And Sweet lyrics - Lenka

It's difficult to see

From the surface

But everything goes in

And it stings

Like a spider

Hits you deep inside

I know that you are just like me

Oversensitive

We're an ordinary breed

Take it everything for much more than it means

Well it's dangerous

And it's sweet

Cut us and we bleed

All these words we speak

Casually

Oh maybe I'm just weak

But it hurts me

Everything you said

Well it cuts

Like a knife it hurts me deep inside

I know that you are just like me

Oversensitive

We're an ordinary breed

Take it everything for much more than it means

Well it's dangerous

And it's sweet

Cut us and we bleed

I should put on my armor

The next time I see you so I won't be harmed

But I know I can shoot my own arrows

I'm sorry I hurt you

I know that like me you can be

Oversensitive

I know that you are just like me

Oversensitive

Where unordinary breed,

Take it everything for much more than it means

Oh well it's dangerous

And it's sweet

Yeah it's dangerous

And sweet

Don't you know it's dangerous

And it's sweet

Cut us and we bleed

Trouble Is A Friend lyrics - Lenka

Trouble he will find you

No matter where you go

Oh oh

No matter if you're fast

No matter if you're slow

Oh oh

The eye of the storm

Or the cry in the morn

Oh oh

You're fine for a while

But you start to lose control

He's there in the dark

He's there in my heart

He waits in the wings

He's gotta play a part

Trouble is a friend

Yeah trouble is a friend of mine

Trouble is a friend

But trouble is a foe

Oh oh

And no matter what I feed him

He always seems to grow

Oh oh

He sees what I see

And he knows what I know

Oh oh

So don't forget

As you ease on down the road

He's there in the dark

He's there in my heart

He waits in the wings

He's gotta play a part

Trouble is a friend

Yeah trouble is a friend of mine

So don't be alarmed

If he takes you by the arm

I won't let him win

But I'm a sucker for his charm

Trouble is a friend

Yeah trouble is a friend of mine

How I hate the way he makes me feel

And how I try to make him leave

I try oh oh I try

But he's there in the dark

He's there in my heart

He waits in the wings

He's gotta play a part

Trouble is a friend

Yeah trouble is a friend of mine

So don't be alarmed

If he takes you by the arm

I won't let him win

But I'm a sucker for his charm

Trouble is a friend

Yeah trouble is a friend of mine

Live Like You're Dying lyrics - Lenka

One of these days you'll be

under the covers, you'll be

under the table and you'll realize.

That all of your days are numbered;

all of them one to one hundred.

All of them millions.

All of them trillions.

So what are you gonna do with them all?

You can not trade them in for more...

No no

Take every moment; you know that you own them.

It's all you can do, use what's been given to you.

Give me a reason to

fight the feeling

that there's nothing here for me.

Cause none of its easy,

I know it wasn't meant to be.

I know it's all up to me.

It's all up to me.

So what am I gonna do with my time?

Oooh

Ill take every moment, I know that I own them.

It's all up to you to do whatever you choose.

Live like you're dying and never stop trying.

It's all you can do, use what's been given to you.

All of the moments you didn't notice;

gone in the blink of an eye.

And all of the feelings you couldn't feel

no matter how you try.

Oh oh

Take every moment; you know that you own them.

It's all up to you,

to do whatever you choose.

Live like you're dying and never stop trying.

It's all you can do, use what's been given to you.

Live like you're dying and never stop trying.

It's all up to you, use what's been given to you.

Oh oh

Like A Song lyrics - Lenka

I can't forget you when you're gone

You're like a song that goes around in my head

And how I regret, it's been so long

Oh, what went wrong? Could it be something I said?

Time, make it go faster or just rewind

To back when I'm wrapped in your arms

All afternoon long it's with me the same song

You left a light on inside me, my love

I can remember the way that it felt to be

Holding on to you

I can't forget you when you're gone

You're like a song that goes around in my head

And how I regret, it's been so long

Oh what went wrong? Could it be something I said?

Time, make it go faster or just decide

To come back to my happy heart

We Will Not Grow Old lyrics - Lenka

You and me will be lying side by side

Forever forever

Underneath this adolescent sky

Together together

And you will hold my heart inside your hand

And You'll be the one, the one to tell me

Oh, we've got a long, long way to go

To get there

We'll get there

But oh, if there's one thing that we know

It's that we will not grow old

You made me swear that our hearts will never die

No never, no never

Cause no one seems to believe that we can fly

Forget them, forget them

Oh, you told me

Oh, we've got a long, long way to go

To get there

We'll get there

But oh, if there's one thing that we know

It's that we will not grow old

Oh, how could we know that day, it came with age

That oh, the feeling would fade...

Force Of Nature lyrics - Lenka

You move

A little closer

You feel

The force of nature

We touch

And something charges

The air

You look into my eyes

And you

Can't look away

It's no surprise

I planned it

Out this way

And now I know

You're

Completely bewitched

Caught under my spell

Completely bewitched

Your body

Will tell you

What to do

It's sorcery the way

I draw you to me

So don't try

To struggle

You are captured

In my web

Just like

A voodoo doll

I make you move

Cause I know

What I like

And I like you

You're

Completely bewitched

Caught under my spell

Completely bewitched

Your body

Will tell you

What to do

You're

Completely bewitched

Caught under my spell

Completely bewitched

Your body

Will tell you

What to do

Now close your eyes

And surrender

To the moment

Reach out your hand

And touch me

I am your gravity

You're

Completely bewitched

Caught under my spell

Completely bewitched

Your body

Will tell you

What to do

All Over Now lyrics - Lenka

Here one day gone the next

We only hope he tried his best

To stay on this earth a little longer

What doesn't kill us makes us stronger

Turn out the light

Lock the door

Let the night take over

Pick yourself up off the floor

'Cause its all over now

I know you gave them your best

But what you did with the rest

Oh, we'll never know

How heavy was the weight upon you?

Too heavy for the ones who, loved you

Oh, turn out the light

Lock the door

Let the night take over

Pick yourself up off the floor

Oh, turn out the light

Lock the door

Let the night take over

Pick yourself up off the floor

'Cause its all over now

You're gonna feel nothing at all

None of the pain, none of the cause

Into the night and none of the hounds who'd try to bring you down, oh...

'Cause you're gonna feel nothing at all

Nothing at all

Nothing at all...

Turn out the light

Lock the door

Let the night take over

Pick yourself up off the floor

One last time

Turn out the light

Lock the door

Let the night take over

Pick yourself up off the floor

'Cause its all over now...

Gravity Rides Everything lyrics - Lenka

Oh, got to see, got to know right now

What's that riding on your everything?

It isn't anything at all

Oh, got to see, got to know right now

What's that writing on your shelf

In the bathrooms and the bad motels?

No one really cared for it at all

Not the gravity plan

Early, early in the morning

It pulls all on down my sore feet

I want to go back to sleep

In the motions and the things that you say

It all will fall, fall right into place

As fruit drops, flesh it sags

Everything will fall right into place

When we die, some sink and some lay

But at least I don't see you float away

And all the spilt milk, sex and weight

It all will fall, fall right into place

It all will fall...

Ivory Tower lyrics - Lenka

I built a ten foot wall

I was afraid of feeling vulnerable

Oh...Oh

I would deny it all

Unless you come for my Rapunzel

You can be anything you see

You want to feel the same as me

But oh oh...oh it's a messed up town

Say what you want and burn it down

Ah...Oh

I'm all alone in my ivory tower

I'm gonna stay till the final hour

I'm all alone in my ivory tower

Till it crashes to the ground

I know your heart is torn

I know you see the difficulty

Do you save yourself

Or do you like humanity

You can breath if the air is clean

You want to know it's what it seems

Well oh oh...oh I think it's upside down

Yeah it's a tunnel and I'm underground

I'm all alone in my ivory tower

I'm gonna stay till the final hour

I'm all alone in my ivory tower

Till it crashes to the ground

I'm all alone in my ivory tower

I'm gonna stay till the final hour

I'm all alone in my ivory tower

Till it crashes to the ground

Crash to the ground

My heart is fragile my spirit is weak

You can hardly blame me if I'm made of ivory (ivory)

I'm all alone in my ivory tower

I'm gonna stay till the final hour

I'm all alone in my ivory tower

Till it crashes to the ground

I'm all alone in my ivory tower

I'm gonna stay till the final hour

I'm all alone in my ivory tower

Till it crashes to the ground

Seasons lyrics - Cleopold, Lenka & Animal Feelings

(originally by Future Islands)

The seasons change

And I've tried hard just to soften you

The seasons change

But I've grown tired tryna change for you

'Cause I've been waiting on you

I've been waiting on you

'Cause I've been waiting on you

I've been weighing on you

As it breaks, the summer will wake

But the winter will wash what is left of the taste

As it breaks, the summer will warm

But the winter will crave what has gone

Will crave what has all gone away

People change

But you know some people never do

You know, when people change

They gain a peace, but they lose one, too

'Cause I've been hanging on you

I've been weighing on you

'Cause I've been waiting on you

I've been hanging on you

As it breaks, the summer will wake

But the winter will wash what is left of the taste

As it breaks, the summer will warm

But the winter will crave what has gone

Will crave what has gone

Will crave what has all gone away

Stop Thinking So Much lyrics - Lenka

I was slapped in the face by a dose of reality

Tickled with a feather of congeniality

Oh oh oh oh oh

I'm done for

I was staring in the mirror, looking for clarity

Stepping over cracks to avoid calamity

Oh oh oh oh oh

I'm done for

Cause you can't count on anything

Except that you can't count on anything

No, you can't count on anything

Except that you can't count on anything

So give it all that you've got

Take your very best shot

I'm addicted to change

I don't care if it happens for me or not

I'm a rolling rock

I'm an ocean drop

I'm addicted to the way that I feel when I'm getting my brain

To stop thinking so much

I was losing my grip on love and sanity

Feeling it slip like rain to gravity

Oh oh oh oh oh

I'm down low

Always thinking I'm the past

And living in memory

Tripping over traps flashbacks to apathy

Oh oh oh oh oh

I'm down low

Cause you can't count on anything

Except that you can't count on anything

No, you can't count on anything

Except that you can't count on anything

So give it all that you've got

Take your very best shot

I'm addicted to change

I don't care if it happens for me or not

I'm a rolling rock

I'm an ocean drop

I'm addicted to the way that I feel when I'm getting my brain

To stop thinking so much

Stop thinking so much

Oh stop thinking so much

Stop thinking so much

Oh stop thinking so much

Just stop

So give it all that you've got

Take your very best shot

I'm addicted to change

I don't care if it happens for me or not

I'm a rolling rock

I'm an ocean drop

I'm addicted to the way that I feel when I'm getting my brain

To stop thinking so much

Vincent O'Brien lyrics - Lenka

He only sings when he's sad

And he's sad all the time

So he sings the whole night through

Yeah, he sings in the daytime too

He only dreams when he's sad

And he's sad all the time

So he dreams the whole night through

Yeah, he dreams in the daytime too

There may be mermaids under the water

There may even be a man in the moon

Oh, but Vince, your time is running out

I hope you get yourself together soon

Out of Buffalo, the man

Below the belt he swung

And then after the bell has rung

Another cheap shot, here it comes

Another cheap shot...

He only laughs when he's sad

And he's sad all the time

So he laughs the whole night through

Yeah, he laughs in the daytime, too

There may be mermaids under the water

There may even be a man in the moon

Oh, but Vince, your time is running out

I hope you get yourself together soon

I hope you get yourself together...

Winter Sun lyrics - Lenka

Like winter sun, ah-ah-ah-ah

Hey, you know what they say

"Everything in moderation"

So let's save a little space

To find relief from all the darkness

Streams of light coming shining through

And I am here for you

'Cause that is what we do

I will be your winter sun

And you can be my summer rain

We will be there when the bad times come

And when the good rolls around again

Just like winter sun (sun), like winter sun, ah-ah-ah-ah

Though, some time ago

I thought I could handle it all on my own

(Oh-oh) oh, oh, those times would show

I needed someone there to catch me

Remind me that light's shining through

'Cause that is what we do

And I'll do the same for you

Yeah, I will be your winter sun (I will be your winter sun)

And you can be my summer rain (and you can be my summer rain)

We will be there when the bad times come (ooh, when the bad times come)

And when the good rolls around again (ah-ah-ah-ah)

Just like winter sun, ah-ah-ah-ah, like winter sun, ah-ah-ah-ah

Just when you thought that the storm would never pass

Just when you though that the clouds would never ever part

I will be your winter sun (I will be your winter sun)

And you can be my summer rain (and you can be my summer rain)

We will be there when the bad times come (ooh, when the bad times come)

And when the good rolls around again (ah-ah-ah-ah)

Just like winter sun, ah-ah-ah-ah, like winter sun, ah-ah-ah-ah

Just like winter sun, ah-ah-ah-ah

Like winter sun, ah-ah-ah-ah

You pull me apart
You break me in half
Every time you leave
I'm a broken heart
And I'll stay that way till I see you when
You'll put me all back together again
Woa-oh

All that I have
And all that I am
Would be nothing without you baby
You are the one
You are the only one
That can make me whole
Yea you make me whole
But there's only one problem with this situation
When you go
I can't go on

You pull me apart
You break me in half
Every time you leave
I'm a broken heart
And I'll stay that way till I see you when
You'll put me all back together again

'cause I'm like a world with no windows
A bed with no pillows
I'm a kiss with no kiss back
I'm a sea with no fishes
I am like spring with no flowers
I'm a day with no hours
I am incomplete
I am incomplete

Mmm give me a sign
That I will be fine
When I see you walking away from me
'cause you have a piece
A piece of my heart
That you take with you
Yea you take with you

You pull me apart
You break me in half
Every time you leave
I'm a broken heart
And I'll stay that way till I see you when
You'll put me all back together again

You pull me apart
Oh you break me in half
Every time you leave
Well I am a broken heart
And I'll stay that way till I see you when
You will put me all back together again
