Faouzia & John Legend - Minefields (Up!)

 
Now this might be a mistake
That I'm calling you this late
But these dreams I have of you ain't real enough

Started bringing up the past
How the things you love don't last
Even though this isn't fair for both of us

Ooh
Maybe I'm just a fool
I still belong with you
Anywhere you, anywhere you are

Ooh, these minefields that I walk through
Ooh, what I risk to be close to you
Ooh, these minefields keeping me from you
Ooh, what I risk to be close to you

Close to you-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh

I didn't notice what I lost
Until all the lights were off
And not knowing what you're up to tortured me

Now this might be a mistake
We're broken in so many ways
But I piece us back together slowly

Ooh
Maybe I'm just a fool
I still belong with you
Anywhere you, anywhere you are

Ooh, these minefields that I walk through
Ooh, what I risk to be close to you
Ooh, these minefields keeping me from you
Whoa, what I risk to be close to you

Close to you-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh (To be close to you)
Close to you-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh (To you, to you)

Now this might be a mistake
That I'm calling you this late
But these dreams I have of you ain't real enough

Faouzia - Porcelain

 
Take your heart somewhere else
I don't want any of it anymore
Keep it all to yourself
I don't want any of it anymore

It hurts me to say this
But it hurts me more to stay
My fingers are bleeding from
Picking up pieces you made of me

Oh, I can't let you in
My delicate skin
Is far too thin
Porcelain
And your blade is sharp
You take it too far
It's just who you are
Cold cement
And you can't resist
With your iron fist
You come crashing down
Til I'm found in pieces and then
You're filled with regret
But soon you'll forget
And I'm left a mess in your hands

I don't want sympathy
I just want anything that's left of me
The very least my sanity
I'm on my knees
Looking through all this debris

Oh, it hurts me to say this
But it hurts me more to stay
My fingers are bleeding
From picking up pieces you made of me

Oh, I can't let you in
My delicate skin
Is far too thin
Porcelain
And your blade is sharp
You take it too far
It's just who you are
Cold cement
And you can't resist
With your iron fist
You come crashing down
Til I'm found in pieces and then
You're filled with regret
But soon you'll forget
And I'm left a mess in your hands

Again, again, again
Again, and again, and again
Again
Again, and again, and then again

Oh, I can't let you in
My delicate skin
Is far too thin
Porcelain
And your blade is sharp
You take it too far
It's just who you are
Cold cement
And you can't resist
With your iron fist
You come crashing down
Til I'm found in pieces and then
You're filled with regret
But soon you'll forget
And I'm left a mess in your hands

Faouzia - You Don't Even Know Me

 
I walk into a crowded room
Everybody staring
What did I, what did I do wrong?
What did I, what did I do wrong?

Oh, you see what you wanna see
But you don't even know me
What did I, what did I do now?
What did I, what did I do now?

He said, she said, over it
You're acting like you're brilliant
But you don't know
Yeah, you don't know

You don't know a thing at all
You don't know about the way I am when I am all alone
You don't even know
The way I care the way I've grown
You don't know about the way I love so deeply to my bones
You don't even know me

Woah
Woah

I walk it off and brush away
Everything you say
'Cause I don't care, I don't care at all
I don't care, I don't care at all

He said, she said, over it
You're acting like you're brilliant
But you don't know (you don't know)
Yeah, you don't know

You don't know a thing at all
You don't know about the way I am when I am all alone
You don't even know
The way I care the way I've grown
You don't know about the way I love so deeply to my bones
You don't even know me

Woah, you don't even know me
Woah, you don't even know

You don't know a thing at all
You don't know about the way I am when I am all alone
You don't even know
The way I care the way I've grown
You don't know about the way I love so deeply to my bones
You don't even know me

You don't even know me, oh

Faouzia - Tears Of Gold

 
Mama always told me
That I was too naive
Gave away my trust for pennies

I said 'Don't you worry'
Didn't think that I'd be
Broken down and crying
'Help me'

Wrecked? Check
Heart? In debt
All you do is come around
Just came here to collect
Wrecked? Check
Heart? In debt

Don't you know that
I cried tears of gold for you
I sit here poor for you
Collect my pennies and my dimes
That's why you love it when I cry

Platinum love for you
I'd give no less for you
Generosity's my enemy
So I'm broke and
Your heart's rich because of me

Know that this is my fault
Gave a little too much
Knew that this was gonna happen
But I'm not gonna lie
You can make me cry, thousand times
I come running back like
'What is going on with my head?'

Wrecked? Check
Heart? In debt
All you do is come around
Just came here to collect
Wrecked? Check
Heart? In debt

Don't you know that
I cried tears of gold for you
I sit here poor for you
Collect my pennies and my dimes
That's why you love it when I cry

Platinum love for you
I'd give no less for you
Generosity's my enemy
So I'm broke and
Your heart's rich because of me

And the worst part is I'd do it all over again
No, the worst part is, I know it's never gonna end
I keep coming right back like a maniac
I keep coming right back like

Oh, oh
And the worst part is I'd do it all over again
No, the worst part is I know it's never gonna end
I keep coming right back like a maniac

I cried tears of gold for you
I sit here poor for you
Collect my pennies and my dimes
That's why you love it when I cry

Platinum love for you
I'd give no less for you
Generosity's my enemy
So I'm broke and
Your heart's rich because of me
