Sometimes - Gabrielle (Love Actually)

We've come too far we can't turn back
Have our good days, have our bad
When I'm feeling blue
You say that I'm hurting you
We try so hard not to fight
But sometimes we cross the line
And I wanna leave
But you
Won't let me
We have our highs and lows
Just like everybody else
Doesn't mean that we walk away
We work through our mistakes

(Chorus:)
Sometimes I love you
Sometimes I don't
But I never ever
Never want to let you go
The road's not easy
But the feeling's strong
It's the little things that keep me holding on

We're both guilty of mistakes
Though you rarely take the blame
Are you coming through
SometimesI hate you
But it's not mistakes in life you make
It's the good you do along the way
The dues you pay
We have our highs and lows
Something everybody knows
Doesn't mean that we run away
We work through our mistakes

(Chorus)

OhhhOf all the crazy things in life there's pain
It's you and me
We've come so far sometimes I can't believe
That I wouldn't change a thing

(Chorus x 3)

Here with Me - Dido (Love Actually Soundtrack)

I didn't hear you leave
I wonder how am I still here
And I don't want to move a thing
It might change my memory

Oh I am what I am
I'll do what I want
But I can't hide
I won't go
I won't sleep
I can't breathe
Until you're resting here with me

I won't leave
I can't hide
I cannot be
Until you're resting here with me

I don't want to call my friends
They might wake me from this dream
And I can't leave this bed
Risk forgetting all that's been

was watching Love Actually on TV last night. and this song started playing when the guy in love with Kiera Knightley's character was walking away from his apartment when she realised that he was in love with her. kinda explain my emotions at this point of time. so yeah.

Pine Cone and Holly Berry

Pine cones and Holly Berries
Popcorn for you, apples for me
Red striped candy, nut cracker handy
Kettle a-bubbleing hot as can be.
Snow clouds hang low and threatening
Maybe in won't, praying it may
The brightest fireplace glows in every face
Waiting for Christmas day.
There'll be walk-a-round songs and
Talk-a-round songs
Songs of the inn and stable.
There'll be morning time songs and
Evening time songs
And grace at every table.
And Jingle bells will jingle all the way all day.

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas
Everywhere you go;
There's a tree in the Grand Hotel,
One in the park as well
The sturdy kind that doesn't mind the snow.

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas
Soon the bells will start
And the thing that will make them ring
Is the carol that you sing
Right within your heart.


my favourite christmas carol. used to go carolling with the school choir when i was in primary school. stopped singing cause i didnt like the choir mistress in secondary school, my terrible music teacher who is apparently a professional ballerina. haha.

The Rainbow Connection - Kermit, The Muppets Show

Why are there so many songs about rainbows
And what's on the other side?
Rainbows are visions, but only illusions,
And rainbows have nothing to hide.
So we've been told and some choose to believe it
I know they're wrong, wait and see.
Someday we'll find it, the rainbow connection,
The lovers, the dreamers and me.

Who said that every wish would be heard and answered
When wished on the morning star?
Somebody thought of that, and someone believed it,
And look what it's done so far.
What's so amazing that keeps us stargazing
And what do we think we might see?
Someday we'll find it, the rainbow connection,
The lovers, the dreamers, and me.

All of us under its spell,We know that it's probably magic...
... Have you been half asleep? And have you heard voices?
I've heard them calling my name....
Is this the sweet sound that calls the young sailors?
The voice might be one and the same
I've heard it too many times to ignore it
It's something that I'm s'posed to be...
Someday we'll find it, the rainbow connection,
The lovers, the dreamers, and me.

Laa, da daa dee da daa daa,
La laa la la laa dee daa doo...

some songs remind you of a childhood that has been left behind. a past which has been forgotten. simple pleasures and things that never fails to bring a sense of wonder and a smile to your face. yet often, we are too caught up with our lives and preoccupations to take notice of these simple little pleasures.
