Ásgeir - Heimförin

 
Heim á leið, held ég nú
Hugurinn þar er
Hugurinn þar

Ljós um nótt, lætur þú
Loga handa mér
Loga handa

Það er þyngsta raun þetta úfna hraun
Er þyngsta raun þetta úfna

Glitrar dögg, gárast lón
Gnæfa fjöllin blá
Gnæfa fjöllin

Einn ég geng, einni bón
Aldrei gleyma má
Aldrei gleyma

Löng er för, lýist ég lít samt fram á veg
Lít samt fram á veg
Lít samt fram á veg
Lít samt fram á veg
Lít samt fram á veg

Heim á leið, held ég nú
Hugurinn þar er
Hugurinn þar

Ljós um nótt, lætur þú
Loga handa mér
Loga handa

Það er þyngsta raun þetta úfna hraun
Er þyngsta raun þetta úfna hraun
Þetta úfna hraun
Þetta úfna hraun
 


U2 - The Little Things That Give You Away

 
The night gave you a song
A light had been turned on
You walked out in the world
Like you belong there

As easy as a breeze
Each heart was yours to please
Is it only me who sees
There's something wrong there

Oh la la, I'm not a ghost now
I can see you
You need to see me

It's the little things that give you away
The words you cannot say
Your big mouth in the way

I saw you on the stairs
You didn't notice I was there
That's 'cause you were talking at me
And not to me

You were high above the storm
A hurricane being born
This freedom it might cost you
Your liberty

It's the little things that give you away
The words you cannot say
Your big mouth in the way
It's the little things that tease and betray
Has the hunter now become the prey?
It's the little things
The little things that give you away

Sometimes
I can't believe my existence
See myself from a distance
I can't get back inside

Sometimes
The air is so anxious
All my thoughts are so reckless
And all my innocence has died

Sometimes
I wake at four in the morning
Where all the darkness is swarming
And it covers me in fear

Sometimes
Sometimes
Sometimes

Sometimes
I'm full of anger and grieving
So far away from believing
That any sun will reappear

Sometimes
The end is not coming
It's not coming
The end is here
Sometimes

Sometimes
Sometimes
Sometimes

Sometimes
When the painted glass shatters
And you're the only thing matters
But I can't see you through the tears

Sometimes
The end is not coming
It's not coming
The end is here
Sometimes 

 

Illenium & Dabin ft. Lights- Hearts On Fire

 
I miss the ways you would say you wanted me
Call me over, pull me closer
And kiss me like you and I were seventeen
Why does it seem like you don't remember?

You'd call me when you're coming down
Say you'd never let me down
Those nights you'd try to calm me down
Even though I know you're just saying that
Those are words you can't take back

This is for the hearts on fire, outta control
Boy, you gotta let 'em know
This is for the hearts on fire, singing alone
There's only one way to know
I wish you could read my mind or gimme a sign
Tell me you wanted to be mine
This is for the hearts on fire, singing alone
There's only one way to know, ha

I wish you could read my mind or gimme a sign
Tell me you wanted to be mine
This is for the hearts on fire, singing alone
There's only one way to know, ha

I miss the days you would ask me anything
Say you know me, do you want me?
But now you got me looking back and wondering
Maybe I act like it's nothing to me

You'd call me when you're coming down
Say you'd never let me down
Those nights you'd try to calm me down
Even though I know you're just saying that
Those are words you can't take back

This is for the hearts on fire, outta control
Boy, you gotta let 'em know
This is for the hearts on fire, singing alone
There's only one way to know
I wish you could read my mind or gimme a sign
Tell me you wanted to be mine
This is for the hearts on fire, singing alone
Only one way to know, ha

I wish you could read my mind or gimme a sign
Tell me you wanted to be mine
This is for the hearts on fire, singing alone
There's only one way to know, ha 

 

RY X ft. Ólafur Arnalds - Colorblind

 
Through the night and our thoughts
Reaching me, caught in stone
Speak your name through the light
Plead for me, colorblind

Hold it all in your body
Hold it all in your mind
Say it all in your silence here
Say it all in your truth tonight
Hold it all in your body
Keep it all in your mind
Say it all in your silent hears
Say it all in your truth tonight

Through the mist, cross the line
Sheath to play, hold the fire
Plead to me, take the reigns
Only you in my veins

Hold it all in your body
Hold it all in your mind
Say it all in your silence here
Say it all in your truth tonight
Hold it all in your body
Keep it all in your mind
Say it all in your silent hears
Say it all in your truth tonight

Hold it all in your body
Hold it all in your mind
Say it all in your silence here
Say it all in your truth tonight
Hold it all in your body
Keep it all in your mind
Say it all in your silent hears
Say it all in your truth tonight

Martin Garrix & DubVision ft. Shaun Farrugia - Wherever You Are (Up!)

 
I see you in the rising sun
I miss you when I go to sleep
Oh the things I'd do to bring you back to me
As I'm drifting where the wind blows
So lost but I still believe
When I reach the end, it's you that I will see

I'll go wherever you are, go wherever you are
Even into the dark
I'll tear the heavens apart, just to be in your arms
I'll go wherever you are
Give me a sign, I know you're out there
Oh, when my time will come
Oh, I'll go wherever you are, go wherever you are
Even into the dark, wherever you are

Oh, I'll go wherever you are, go wherever you are
Even into the dark, wherever you are

Wherever you are

When you told me not to be afraid
I felt stronger than I've ever been
On my hardest days, I searched for the fire within
I will always be missing you
If only I could turn back time
To a better place, where you were by my side

I'll go wherever you are, go wherever you are
Even into the dark
I'll tear the heavens apart, just to be in your arms
I'll go wherever you are
Give me a sign, I know you're out there
Oh, when my time will come
Oh, I'll go wherever you are, go wherever you are
Even into the dark, wherever you are

Wherever you are
(Wherever you are)
(Wherever you are)
(Wherever you are)
(Wherever you are)
(Wherever you are)
(Wherever you are)

I'll go wherever you are, go wherever you are
Even into the dark
Wherever you are 

 

Kygo, Zak Abel ft. Nile Rodgers - For Life (Modjo semi-cover)

 
(Life, love you for life, love you for life, love you for life...)

I took the long road
Across the ocean
I burned some bridges on the way
Feels like forever
Here in the moment
Just hope forever's here to stay

Don't wanna say too much
Speak too soon
And scare your heart away
Just wanna feel your light
The fire inside
For the rest of all my days

Lately, I just feel like
I can't get you out of my mind
I feel love for the first time
And I know that it's true
Me and you
I could love you for life

I could love you for life, love you for life, love you for life
I could love you for life
I could love you for life, love you for life
And I know that it's true
Me and you
I could love you for life

I could love you for life
And I know that it's true
Me and you
I could love you for life

You came and found me
When I was hopeless (I was hopeless)
Right on the edge of giving up
You understood me
And gave me focus
You're all that I could ever want

Don't wanna say too much
Speak too soon
In case scare your heart away
(Scare your heart away)
Just wanna feel your light
The fire inside
For the rest of all my days, oh

Lately, I just feel like
I can't get you out of my mind
I feel love for the first time
And I know that it's true
Me and you
I could love you for life

I could love you for life, love you for life, love you for life
Love you for life
I could love you for life, love you for life
And I know that it's true
Me and you
I could love you for life

I could love you for life
Oh, I could love you for life
And I know that it's true
Me and you
I could love you for life

Illenium ft. Nina Nesbitt - Luv Me A Little (Up!)

 
I'm caught in the way that you talk like you don't want to know
I gave you the world, but you let it go
And now you're away with the night and my days, they feel so long
Darlin', I wait for you comin' home

Trippin' up over words, callin'
And I can't take it anymore
You know that I've heard it all before

So please just say somethin' different
Say we're not finished yet
Tell me I'm weighin' on your mind
Baby, won't you say somethin' different? (Say)
Don't tear me down again (No)
'Cause I've been prayin' that you might
Still love me a little

Woo-ooh
Woo-ooh
Woo-ooh
Still love me a little

Still love me a little
Still love me a little

I hate the words that you say when you're wishin' me well
Like I need some time to be on my own
But it makes me sick to think of you with somebody else
And, darlin', I wait for you comin' home

Trippin' up over words, callin'
And I can't take it anymore
You know that I've heard it all before

So please just say somethin' different
Say we're not finished yet
Tell me I'm weighin' on your mind
Baby, won't you say somethin' different? (Say)
Don't tear me down again (No)
'Cause I've been prayin' that you might
Still love me a little

Still love me a little

Still love me a little
Still love me a little

(Woo-ooh)
Love me a little (Woo-ooh)
(Woo-ooh)
Still love me a little 


Vera Blue - Hold

 
I love the way you tie me down
False words would never be allowed
When I am yours
When we are home

You loved the many faults you found
You kept what was worth keeping around
When I am yours
When we are home

Wanting you to know, before things become overgrown
There are reasons why I am this way
Wanting you to know, before things become overgrown
There are reasons why I am this way

I have opened my heart so many times
You have a hold of it now
I need you to breathe new life into me
You have a hold of it now

I tried to loosen off your hold
But you stayed and nothing made you fall
I knew when you took me over
That you where not like the others
I can be young and reckless
But you stayed

I have opened that heart so many times
You have a hold of it now
I need you to breathe new life into me
You have a hold of it now

Wanting you to know, before things become overgrown
There are reasons why I am this way
Wanting you to know, before things become overgrown
There are reasons why I am this way

All those times I tried to make you forget me
You stayed, you stayed
All those times I tried to make you forget me
You stayed

When I am yours
When I am yours
When we are home
When we are home 

 

London Grammar - I Need The Night

 
There is a voice it is chastising me
I was so cold, what had become of me
Take all your limbs and wrap them 'round your neck
So they all laugh at your predicament

All of the boys and girls
All people in this world
Give me a dream and I will give you my word

I need the night
And I need this drink
Will you sit with me and bring all of your friends
Chase the morning light till all of this ends

There is a whisper that our God is a she
She sits on high over the land and the sea
Her breast is heavy in a brand new world
Tell your grandmother and your boys and your girls
She's got a brand new favourite
Tell all the shrinks and haters
Give her a dream and she will give you her word

I need the night
And I need this drink
Will you sit with me and bring all of your friends
Chase the morning light till all of this ends

I need the night
And I need this drink
Will you sit with me and bring all of your friends
Chase the morning light till all of this ends

When I realised that I never loved them
That the ones before just held me down and caused me problems
It's in the way you see me, the way you hold me high
Tell me that you love me, longest days turn coldest nights

I need the night
And I need this drink
Will you sit with me and bring all of your friends
Chase the morning light till all of this ends 

 

HAEVN - No Man's Land

 
So call your lover up
Tell her that you've gone
Say you'll be back again
With lots of it or none
Tell her that promises
Vanish in the sun
Out in this no man's land I'm trying to be me

So call you lover up
Tell her what you see
Show her the passage to
The endless field of me
Where seasons change
All the colors of your tree
Out in this no man's land I'm trying to be me
Out in this no man's land I'm dying to be free

If only I could change, change
If only I could change, change
Cause in this no man's land I'm trying to be me
Out in this no man's land I'm dying to be free

So tell your lover
You've been wandering in between
The things you have
And the longings in your dreams
Oh how you're seeking out ways for you to leave
Out in this no man's land I'm trying to be me
Out in this no man's land I'm dying to be free

If only I could change, change
If only I could change, change
Cause in this no man's land I'm trying to be me
Out in this no man's land I'm dying to be free

I'm on my own in this lone man's road
Nowhere to go but a lone man's home

And If only I could change, change
If only I could change, change
Cause in this no man's land I'm trying to be me
Out in this no man's land I'm dying to be free 

 

Richard Marx - Angelia

 
Memories of you and me
Tumble inside my head
The way that we used to be
Things that we said
No one has ever made me believe so strong
You left me to wonder
How did our love go wrong

Angelia
Where you running to now
Angelia
Got to make you turn around

I lie awake at night
Wait for the sun to shine
I still feel you next to me
Your lips on mine
Without a warning
You made our love a lie
You said you were sorry
But you never told me why

Angelia
Where you running to now
Angelia
Got to make you turn around

Maybe my love is in vain
Maybe you're the hurting kind
Can't take no more of this pain
I've got to get you off my mind

Tried to be what you wanted
I gave you all I had
You left me with nothing
Nothing but a photograph

Angelia
Where you running to now
Angelia
Got to make you turn around
Angelia
Where you running to now
Angelia
Got to make you turn around 

 

The Cure - A Forest

 
Come closer and see
See into the trees
Find the girl
While you can
Come closer and see
See into the dark
Just follow your eyes
Just follow your eyes

I hear her voice
Calling my name
The sound is deep
In the dark
I hear her voice
And start to run
Into the trees
Into the trees

Into the trees

Suddenly I stop
But I know it's too late
I'm lost in a forest
All alone
The girl was never there
It's always the same
I'm running towards nothing
Again and again and again and again

Yoshika Colwell - Please

 
Please, give me a smile
Tell me you've found a new hobby
Take me out for a coffee
Take me somewhere new you've found
 
Please, just go to sleep
Don't wake up till morning well rested
Please, don't ever die
Oh, I need you to stay alive
For a long long time
Oh, I do
 
Please, don't look at me like that
I didn't know I was doing it, I'm sorry
Please, don't turn your back
I'd change if I knew how
 
Maybe it's alright
To know it's out of our hands
We always pay such a high price
When we act like it's not that bad
And I think that
 
I've been waiting for you
To be someone you're not
For too long
I've been wishing on stars
It never comes out right
I've been on tenterhooks
Awaiting looks of validation
And I've been up all night
Trying to set it right in my mind
But I can't
 
So, please, just shut the door
Let me be sad and quiet
I don't want to deny it anymore
Come on, let me let you go
Let me out into the open
And I'll think of you often
Of course, I will
But if I stay, then
 
You'll be waiting for me
To be someone I'm not
For too long
You'll be wishing on stars
You'll tell me every time
You'll be in my bad books
Awaiting looks of affirmation
And you'll be up all night
Trying to make it right

 
 
 

London Grammar - Into Gold

 
Dear heart, dear soul
Old friend, don't let me go
I am the fire and you are water
Drown me out, but I learnt
So if you see me, cross the street
But I still see you in people I meet
And I am the fire and you are water
You drown me out, but I learnt, I got older, found out I ought to

Make ashes from stone
All of these things that I've seen turn darkness into gold
And when I was made from the right kind of wrong
All of these things that I've seen turn darkness into gold

River run red, river run dry
River run red and white
I am the fire and you are water
Drown me out, but I learned
So if you see me, cross the street
But I still see you in people I meet
I am the fire and you are water
You ran me wild to the sea
There you'll find me
Trying to catch me

Make ashes from stone
All of these things that I've seen turned darkness into gold
And when I was made from the right kind of wrong
All of these things that I've seen turn darkness into gold
All of these things that I've seen turn darkness into gold

All of these things that I've seen turn darkness into gold
All of these things that I've seen turn darkness into gold
