Empty Spots (Album: "Leave A Light On" (2014)) (7 SECONDS LYRICS)

.

I've got some time
So I'm gonna say this
And it shouldn't take too long
I'm ever-grateful for the music in my life
So here's a song
Darker times when I truly thought
That I had finally reached the end
Music fills in all the empty spots
It's always been my closest friend

It helps to live like this
It helps to live like this
I take it everywhere I go
It helps to live like this
It helps to live like this
Might be the only thing I know

As I get older I can hear the music
Love the joy that it still brings
Use it for getting all my points across
Depend on it for everything

And it connects me to the universe
It makes things feel less far away
A way to bring in all the activism
In my heart and in my head

Jerk Ribs (Album: "Ulysees" (2014)) (JUSTIN NOZUKA LYRICS)

.

And my ear drum, reminds me
His name was just way down in my feet
And this moment, well, I can't breathe
You can't control, something that's getting free
And the rhythm's, exciting
Oh when I start this road full of streets
I'm glad you get this one for cheap

In Harlem, where I started to breathe
Your beat was like a soundtrack to me
I was the girl, my daddy was the world
He played the notes and keys
He said to look for melody in everything

It feels just like it should
I wake up, this, this is what it looks like
So don't miss this, this is what it looks like
So call on me, it feels just like it should
So call on me

The best favorites, go through me
I press the strings, I love everything
Hurtful pain, forget the time and keep staying
Hold the doors, dance and give it away
Just around me, I hear it
And melody was right over me
But whistleblowers happened for me

It feels just like it should
I wake up, this, this is what it looks like
So don't miss this, this is what it looks like
So call on me, it feels just like it should
So call on me

In Harlem, where I started to breathe
Your beat was like a soundtrack to me
I was the girl, my daddy was the world
He played the notes and keys
He said to look for melody in everything

It feels just like it should
I wake up, this, this is what it looks like
So don't miss this, this is what it looks like
So call on me, it feels just like it should
So call on me

Money On My Mind (album: "In The Lonely Hour" (2014)) (SAM SMITH LYRICS)

.

When I signed my deal
I felt pressure
Don't wanna see the numbers
I wanna see heaven
You say, could you write a song for me?
I say, I'm sorry I won't do that happily

When I go home
I tend to close the door
I never wanted more
So sing with me
Can't you see

I don't have
Money on my mind
Money on my mind
I do it for
I do it for the love
[x2]

I do it for the love
I do it for the love

Please don't get me wrong
I wanna keep it moving
I know what that requires
I'm not foolish
Please, can you make this work for me?
Cause I'm not a puppet, I will work against your strings

When I go home
I tend to close the door
I never wanted more
So sing with me
Can't you see

I don't have
Money on my mind
Money on my mind
I do it for
I do it for the love
[x2]

I do it for the love
I do it for the love

When the sun will set
Don't you fret
No I have no money on my mind
No money on my mind
No money on my mind
No I have no money on my mind
[x2]

Just love

Money on my mind
Money on my mind
I do it for
I do it for the love

I don't have
Money on my mind
Money on my mind
I do it for
I do it for the love

I do it for the love
I do it for the love

Latch (Acoustic) (EP: "Nirvana" (2013)) (SAM SMITH LYRICS)

.

You lift my heart up when the rest of me is down
You, you enchant me even when you're not around
If there are boundaries, I will try to knock them down
I�m latching on, babe, now I know what I have found

I feel we're close enough
Could I lock in your love?
I feel we�re close enough
Could I lock in your love?

Now I�ve got you in my space
I won�t let go of you
Got you shackled in my embrace
I�m latching on to you

I�m so en-captured, got me wrapped up in your touch
Feel so enamored, hold me tight within your clutch
How do you do it, got me losing every breath
Why did you kiss me to make my heart beat out my chest?

I feel we're close enough
Could I lock in your love?
I feel we�re close enough
Could I lock in your love?

Now I�ve got you in my space
I won�t let go of you
Got you shackled in my embrace
I�m latching on to you

Now I�ve got you in my space
I won�t let go of you
Got you shackled in my embrace
I�m latching on to you

I�m latching on to you

Good Thing (Album: "In The Lonely Hour" (2014)) (SAM SMITH LYRICS)

.

I had a dream I was mugged outside your house
I had a dream in a panic you came running out
For a moment you were sure I'd die on you
For a moment I believed you loved me too
But life is never like this, and you're never strong

Too much of a good thing won't be good for long
Although you made my heart sing, to stay with you would be wrong
Too much of a good thing won't be good anymore
Watch where I tread before I fall

We'd talk maybe 20 times a day
And still I never say what I want to say
I thought I wouldn't need to
I guess I read you wrong

Too much of a good thing won't be good for long
Although you made my heart sing, to stay with you would be wrong
Too much of a good thing won't be good anymore
Watch where I tread before I fall

You refuse to see this, don't see it anymore
I have made the decision not to answer your calls
Cause I put everything out there and I got nothing at all

Too much of a good thing isn't good and you know
I watch where I walk before I fall
Before I fall

I'm Not The Only One (Album: "In The Lonely Hour" (2014)) (SAM SMITH LYRICS)

.

I don't have much to give, but I don't care for gold
What use is money, when you need someone to hold?
Don't have direction, I'm just rolling down this road
Waiting for you to bring me in from out the cold

You'll never know the endless nights, the rhyming of the rain,
Or how it feels to fall behind and watch you call his name

Pack up and leave everything,
Don't you see what I can bring
Can't keep this beating heart at bay
Set my midnight sorrow free,
I will give you all of me
Just leave your lover, leave him for me.
Leave your lover, leave him for me.

We sit in bars and raise our drinks to growing old
Oh, I'm in love with you and you will never know,
But if I can't have you I'll walk this life alone
Spare you the rising storms and let the rivers flow

You'll never know the endless nights, the rhyming of the rain
Or how it feels to fall behind and watch you call his name

Pack up and leave everything,
Don't you see what I can bring
Can't keep this beating heart at bay
Set my midnight sorrow free,
I will give you all of me
Just leave your lover, leave him for me
Leave your lover, leave him for me.
Leave your lover, leave him for me.

Automatic (Album: "Platinum" (2014)) (MIRANDA LAMBERT LYRICS)

.

Quarter in a payphone
Drying laundry on the line
Watching Sun Tea in the window
Pocket watch tellin' time
Seems like only yesterday I'd get a blank cassette
Record the country countdown 'cause I couldn't buy it yet

If we drove all the way to Dallas just to buy an Easter dress
We�d take along a Rand McNally, stand in line to pay for gas
God knows that shifting gears ain�t what it used to be
I learned to drive that 55 just like a queen, three on a tree

Hey, whatever happened to waitin' your turn
Doing it all by hand,
'Cause when everything is handed to you
It's only worth as much as the time put in
It all just seemed so good the way we had it
Back before everything became automatic

If you had something to say
You'd write it on a piece of paper
Then you'd put a stamp on it
And they'd get it three days later
Boys would call the girls
And girls would turn them down
Staying married was the only way to work your problems out

Hey, whatever happened to waitin' your turn
Doing it all by hand,
'Cause when everything is handed to you
It's only worth as much as the time put in
It all just seemed so good the way we had it
Back before everything became automatic

Automatic

Let's pull the windows down
Windows with the cranks
Come on let's take a picture
The kind you gotta shake

Hey, whatever happened to waitin' your turn
Doing it all by hand,
'Cause when everything is handed to you
It's only worth as much as the time put in
It all just seemed so good the way we had it
Back before everything became, automatic

Gravity Is A Bitch (Album: "Platinum" (2014)) (MIRANDA LAMBERT LYRICS)

.

It's been your 20s feeling that u're walking on the ceiling
and u party like u're 8 feet tall
U say work is for the birds
Chasing dreams and mini skirts
From here everything seem small

Then 30's come around and you finally feel the ground
Look around and maybe start planning
For what the future holds
And though you're far from old, your moisturizer's been less time tanning

You're hanging over, but you're hanging in
You're starting to look like all of your friends
Conversations turned up from rock n' roll
to kids and politics and how much money you owe

Got bags under your eyes, bigger hips and bigger thighs
You got places you can't even itch
You can nip it, tuck it, squeeze it
But you're never gonna beat it
'Cause gravity is a bitch

Forty's kinda boring
And you spend your time ignoring the things you don't see so clear
Your reflection in the glass is gonna knock you on you as*
You wonder how the hell to get down here

You're happy in your fifties
Though things are kinda shifty
At Sixty you find peace of mind
Go to bed at 8 o'clock and comb your hair if you still got it
'Cause you're almost at the finish line

You're hanging over, but you're hanging in
You're starting to look like all of your friends
Conversations turned up from rock n' roll
to kids and politics and how much money you owe

Got bags under your eyes, bigger hips and bigger thighs
You got places you can't even itch
You can nip it, tuck it, squeeze it
But you're never gonna beat it
'Cause gravity is a bitch

Yeah gravity is a bitch
I'm here to tell ya
Gravity is a bitch

Somebody Else (Album: "Platinum" (2014)) (MIRANDA LAMBERT LYRICS)

.

Highway 65 sure sounds kinda nice
I feel like drivin' somewhere far away
Got the top rolled down, radio up loud
Playin Willie and Old Hank

Well I don't really have a certain destination
I'll just fill the gas tank up and use my imagination

I wanna feel my freedom blowin' through my hair
Throw my troubles to the wind and scream out I don't care
I'm tired of bein' down and out cause that ain't what life should be about
I can feel the load gettin' lighter with every mile
I wanna be somebody else for a little while

Sometimes we're afraid to change, scared of what tomorrow brings
Same routine every day
If you never stop and listen, you don't know what you'll be missin'
Don't let your life slip away

I wanna feel my freedom blowin' through my hair
Throw my troubles to the wind and scream out I don't care
I'm tired of bein' down and out cause that ain't what life should be about.
I can feel the load gettin' lighter with every mile
I wanna be somebody else for a little while

I wanna feel my freedom blowin' through my hair
Throw my troubles to the wind and scream out I don't care
I'm tired of bein' down and out cause that ain't what life should be about
I can feel the load gettin' lighter with every mile
I wanna be somebody else for a little while

Stay up all night and sleep all day and wake up with a smile
I wanna be somebody else for a little while

Little Red Wagon (Album: "Platinum" (2014)) (MIRANDA LAMBERT LYRICS)

.

You only love me for my big sun glasses
And my Tony Lomas
And my Dodge Dart classic
You said "I'll be Johhny and you be June
I'll ride with you to the moon"
But guess what?

[Chorus:]
You can't ride in my little red wagon
The front seat's broken and the axel's dragin'
You can't step to this backyard swagger
You know it ain't my fault when I'm walkin' jaws droppin' like
Ooh, ah, ooh, ah

Oh, heaven help me
I've been sewing wildflower seeds
And chasing tumble weeds
But that's just who I be
And you're just trying to slow this rolling stone
But I'm on to you baby
So guess what?

[Chorus:]
You can't ride in my little red wagon
The front seat's broken and the axel's dragin'
No you can't step to this backyard swagger
You know it ain't my fault when I'm walkin' jaws droppin' like
Ooh, ah, ooh, ah

Oh, you only love me for my big sun glasses
And my Tony Lomas
I live in Oklahoma
And I've got long, blonde hair
And I play guitar, and I go on the road
And I do all the shit you wanna do
And my dog does tricks
And I ain't about drama, ya'll
And I love my apron
But I ain't your mama!
So guess what?

[Chorus:]
You can't ride in my little red wagon
The front seat's broken and the axel's dragin'
No you can't step to this backyard swagger
You know it ain't my fault when I'm walkin' jaws droppin' like
Ooh, ahh, ooh, ahh

Bathroom Sink (Album: "Platinum" (2014)) (MIRANDA LAMBERT LYRICS)

.

Puttin� on my makeup
Puttin� off the hard stuff
Hoping that it passes
Fake smile & eyelashes
I wash my hands and try not to think
Or dirty up my bathroom sink

I�m at it again with mama
Everybody�s so tired of the drama
Were still fighting like I�m sixteen
And I guess we always will be
She taught me how to pray and drink
And how to clean the bathroom sink

[CHORUS:]
It's amazing, the amount of rejection
That I see in my reflection
And I cant get out of the way
I'm lookin� forward to the girl I wanna be
But regret has got a way of staring me right in the face
So I try not to waste too much time
At the bathroom sink

It all gets complicated
And sometimes overrated
Glamour at its finest
Just means someone�s hidin�
From their own reality
And the mirror at their bathroom sink

[CHORUS]

I pray as I get ready
Forgot to make me steady
And I thank him for his patience
And I take my medication
And bless this day and all it brings
And I clean up the bathroom sink

Run Daddy Run (feat. Pistol Annies) (Album: "Platinum" (2014)) (MIRANDA LAMBERT LYRICS)

.

Daddy can you hear the devil drawing near
Like a bullet from a gun, run daddy run.

All the songs you used to sing to me
Would rock birds to sleep
I need you now so please somehow
Put rockets on your feet

Oh oh oh oh

Daddy can you hear the devil drawing near
Like a bullet from a gun, run daddy run.

Saw that dark cloud coming from a million miles away.
Oh how I've dreaded this God forsaken day.

Daddy can you hear the devil drawing near
Like a bullet from a gun, run daddy run.

Mama's been crying in the kitchen
Sister's been afraid of the dark.
I've been gathering the pieces of all these shattered hearts.
And I don't care where you go to
And I don't care where you land
But just get out of there daddy as fast as you can

Oh, oh, oh, oh

Daddy can you hear the devil drawing near
Like a bullet from a gun, run daddy run.

Run Daddy run, run daddy run.
Run Daddy run, run daddy run.

What Awaits Us Now (Album: "Don't Wait Up" (2014)) (BANE LYRICS)

.

There is a whole universe spinning
In perfect harmony around us

We survived the race to the egg
Every breath the holy grail
Beautiful secrets hiding everywhere
So god-damned much
To do, and feel and say

The colors brighter
The music louder
The stakes higher
The kisses longer

Things that need leaving
Rules there for the breaking
Battles that should be raging
Leave your mark on everyone
Age is death, love is worth it
And hard work, it pays off

And time is running out

Roots And Branches (Meant To Be Alone) (Album: "Clouded" (2014)) (THIS WILD LIFE LYRICS)

.

We lay on our backs out on the front yard
Holding your right hand, I say life�s been so hard
The shade of the tree we planted
It grew strong with roots and branches
But it�s just not ours anymore
We build these walls high, they blend into the sky
Thick skin and bones defend us from outside
The way we lost it all, I think it made you strong
But I don�t feel that anymore

I feel nothing at all, yeah I trip and I fall
Running straight into walls while you�re suffering withdrawals
When will I ever get a better hand?
I am losing my hope and it hurts in my throat
Have my back to the coast at the end of my rope
Oh, will I ever be a better man?

Am I meant to be alone?

We lay on our backs on the hood of my car
Holding my right hand, you point out the North Star
Show me the way ahead, guide me with light I said
Cause I can�t see straight anymore
Everyone left me all at once then
Honestly, I couldn�t even blame them
I�ve been a shitty friend
I don�t know where you went
I just can�t handle any more

I feel nothing at all, yeah I trip and I fall
Running straight into walls while you�re suffering withdrawals
When will I ever get a better hand?
I am losing my hope and it hurts in my throat
Have my back to the coast at the end of my rope
Oh, will I ever be a better man?

Am I meant to be alone?
