I wasn't there the moment you first learned to breathe
But I'm on my way
On my way
I wasn't there the moment you got off your knees
But I'm on my way
On my way
Lay down
And come alive in all you've found
All you're meant to be
And for now
We'll wait until the morning light
And close our eyes to see
Just close your eyes to see
A tear must have formed in my eye
When you had your first kiss
But I'm on my way
On my way
So leave a space deep inside for everything I'll miss
'Cause I'm on my way
On my way
Lay down
And come alive in all you've found
All you're meant to be
And for now
We'll wait until the morning light
And close our eyes to see
Just close your eyes to see
And when you feel no saving grace
Well I'm on my way
On my way
And when you're bound to second place
Well I'm on my way
On my way
So don't believe it's all in vain
'Cause I'm on my way
On my way
The light at the end is worth the pain
'Cause I'm on my way
On my way
I'll be there the morning you come out in white
'Cause I'm on my way
On my way

One Day You Will -- Lady Antebellum
You feel like you're falling backwards
Like you're slippin' through the cracks
Like no one would even notice
If you left this town and never came back
You walk outside and all you see is rain
You look inside and all you feel is pain
And you can't see it now
But down the road the sun is shining
In every cloud there's a silver lining
Just keep holding on (just keep holding on)
And every heartache makes you stronger
But it won't be much longer
You'll find love, you'll find peace
And the you you're meant to be
I know right now that's not the way you feel
But one day you will
You wake up every morning and ask yourself
What am I doing here, anyway
With the weight of all those disappointments
Whispering in your ear
You're just barely hanging by a thread
You wanna scream but you're down to your last breath
And you don't know it yet
But down the road the sun is shining
In every cloud there's a silver lining
Just keep holding on (just keep holding on)
And every heartache makes you stronger
But it won't be much longer
You'll find love, you'll find peace
And the you you're meant to be
I know right now that's not the way you feel
But one day you will
Find the strength to rise above
You will
Find just what you're made of, you're made of
Down the road the sun is shining
In every cloud there's a silver lining
Just keep holding on (just keep holding on)
And every heartache makes you stronger
But it won't be much longer
You'll find love, you'll find peace
And the you you're meant to be
I know right now that's not the way you feel
I know right now that's not the way you feel
But one day you will
One day you will
Oh, one day you will
Like you're slippin' through the cracks
Like no one would even notice
If you left this town and never came back
You walk outside and all you see is rain
You look inside and all you feel is pain
And you can't see it now
But down the road the sun is shining
In every cloud there's a silver lining
Just keep holding on (just keep holding on)
And every heartache makes you stronger
But it won't be much longer
You'll find love, you'll find peace
And the you you're meant to be
I know right now that's not the way you feel
But one day you will
You wake up every morning and ask yourself
What am I doing here, anyway
With the weight of all those disappointments
Whispering in your ear
You're just barely hanging by a thread
You wanna scream but you're down to your last breath
And you don't know it yet
But down the road the sun is shining
In every cloud there's a silver lining
Just keep holding on (just keep holding on)
And every heartache makes you stronger
But it won't be much longer
You'll find love, you'll find peace
And the you you're meant to be
I know right now that's not the way you feel
But one day you will
Find the strength to rise above
You will
Find just what you're made of, you're made of
Down the road the sun is shining
In every cloud there's a silver lining
Just keep holding on (just keep holding on)
And every heartache makes you stronger
But it won't be much longer
You'll find love, you'll find peace
And the you you're meant to be
I know right now that's not the way you feel
I know right now that's not the way you feel
But one day you will
One day you will
Oh, one day you will

A Little Bit Stronger -- Sara Evans
Woke up late today and I still feel the sting of the pain
But I brushed my teeth anyway
I got dressed through the mess and put a smile on my face
I got a little bit stronger
Riding in the car to work and I'm trying to ignore the hurt
So I turned on the radio, stupid song made me think of you
I listened to it for a minute, but then I changed it
I'm getting a little bit stronger, just a little bit stronger
And I'm done hoping that we could work it out
I'm done with how it feels, spinning my wheels
Letting you drag my heart around
And, oh, I'm done thinking that you could ever change
I know my heart will never be the same
But I'm telling myself I'll be okay
Even on my weakest days
I get a little bit stronger
Doesn't happen overnight, but you turn around
And a month's gone by, and you realize you haven't cried
I'm not giving you an hour or a second or another minute longer
I'm busy getting stronger
And I'm done hoping that we can work it out
I'm done with how it feels, spinning my wheels
Letting you drag my heart around
And, oh, I'm done thinking, that you could ever change
I know my heart will never be the same
But I'm telling myself I'll be okay
Even on my weakest days
I get a little bit stronger
I get a little bit stronger
Getting along without you, baby
I'm better off without you, baby
How does it feel without me, baby?
I'm getting stronger without you, baby
And I'm done hoping we could work it out
I'm done with how it feels, spinning my wheels
Letting you drag my heart around
And, oh, I'm done thinking that you could ever change
I know my heart will never be the same
But I'm telling myself I'll be okay
Even on my weakest days
I get a little bit stronger
I get a little bit stronger
Just a little bit stronger
A little bit, a little bit, a little bit stronger
I get a little bit stronger
But I brushed my teeth anyway
I got dressed through the mess and put a smile on my face
I got a little bit stronger
Riding in the car to work and I'm trying to ignore the hurt
So I turned on the radio, stupid song made me think of you
I listened to it for a minute, but then I changed it
I'm getting a little bit stronger, just a little bit stronger
And I'm done hoping that we could work it out
I'm done with how it feels, spinning my wheels
Letting you drag my heart around
And, oh, I'm done thinking that you could ever change
I know my heart will never be the same
But I'm telling myself I'll be okay
Even on my weakest days
I get a little bit stronger
Doesn't happen overnight, but you turn around
And a month's gone by, and you realize you haven't cried

But I'm telling myself I'll be okay
Even on my weakest days
I get a little bit stronger
I get a little bit stronger
Just a little bit stronger
A little bit, a little bit, a little bit stronger
I get a little bit stronger
Things Don't Always Turn Out That Way -- The Calling
Well he can't sleep at night and he can't do what's right
It was all because she came into his life, yeah
It's a deep obsession, taking up his time
Oh yeah, She's all that he wants, she's all that he needs
She's everything he just won't believe
Take away his doubt, turn him inside out
Then she can see what he's been dying to say
But things don't always turn out that way
And he must confess
All the impure thoughts of his beautiful temptress
Although he keeps it all bottled up inside
Although he keeps it all safe within his mind, oh yeah
She's all that he wants, she's all that he needs
She's everything he just won't believe
Take away his doubt, turn him inside out
Then she can see what he's been dying to say
But things don't always turn out that way
So wipe that smile off your face
Before it gets too late
There's only so much time, yeah
For you to make up your mind
Yeah, She's all that he wants, she's all that he needs
Well she's everything he just won't believe
Take away his doubt, turn him inside out
Then she can see what he's been dying to say
She's all that he needs
She's everything he just won't believe
Take away his doubt, turn him inside out
Then she can see what he's been dying to say
But things don't always turn out that way
Love, things don't always turn out that way
Things don't always turn out that way

Change Your Mind -- Boyce Avenue
There you are
With your perfect way
You got that little shine
In your eyes
To hear one word
Would make my day
But there's no room for me
In your life
Oooooh
You got me down on my knees
Oooooh
And in my mind I can see
How perfect everything could be
But you won't give us a try
But if I could change your mind
How would you want me?
Would you say you need me?
'Cause I need you now
I try to move on
But your perfect way
Has got this little child
Asking why?
But this world keeps spinning
As my heart stops beating
Is there still no room inside?
Oooooh
You got me down on my knees
Oooooh
And in my mind I can see
How perfect everything could be
But you won't give us a try
But if I could change your mind
How would you want me?
Would you say you need me?
'Cause I need you now
If I could change your mind
(Please tell me I'm not the lonely one)
(Please help me believe that I'm the only one)
If I could change your mind
But if I could change your mind
How would you want me?
Would you say you need me?
'Cause I need you now
And if I could change your mind
How would you hold me?
Would you stay forever?
Or just leave me here to drown
Oh and if I could change your mind
(Change your mind)
If I could change your mind
(Change your mind)
With your perfect way
You got that little shine
In your eyes
To hear one word
Would make my day
But there's no room for me
In your life
Oooooh
You got me down on my knees
Oooooh
And in my mind I can see
How perfect everything could be
But you won't give us a try
But if I could change your mind
How would you want me?
Would you say you need me?
'Cause I need you now
I try to move on
But your perfect way
Has got this little child
Asking why?
But this world keeps spinning
As my heart stops beating
Is there still no room inside?
Oooooh
You got me down on my knees
Oooooh
And in my mind I can see
How perfect everything could be
But you won't give us a try
But if I could change your mind
How would you want me?
Would you say you need me?
'Cause I need you now
If I could change your mind
(Please tell me I'm not the lonely one)
(Please help me believe that I'm the only one)
If I could change your mind
But if I could change your mind
How would you want me?
Would you say you need me?
'Cause I need you now
And if I could change your mind
How would you hold me?
Would you stay forever?
Or just leave me here to drown
Oh and if I could change your mind
(Change your mind)
If I could change your mind
(Change your mind)
Dust From The Stars -- Sara Haze
What gives you the privilege?
Taking me to the universe edge
Returning carefree through the night
On shooting stars
And meteorites
Like a robbery on Jupiter or Mars
You fly away Stealin' my heart
Like taking dust from the stars
Like taking dust from the stars
What gave you the privilege?
Of taking me on an adventure through the mist
To some romantic galaxy
When all along
You could not commit
Like a robbery on Jupiter or Mars
You fly away
Stealin' my heart
Like taking dust from the stars
Like taking dust from the stars
Using all of me till there was nothing left
An emptiness I don't regret
So fly away if you must
And just scatter me
Just scatter me
Just scatter me
Like stardust
What gave you the privilege?
Of taking me to the universe edge...
Like a robbery on Jupiter or Mars
You fly away stealing my heart
Like taking dust from the stars
Like taking dust from the stars
Like taking dust from the stars...
Dust from the stars
Taking me to the universe edge
Returning carefree through the night
On shooting stars
And meteorites
Like a robbery on Jupiter or Mars
You fly away Stealin' my heart
Like taking dust from the stars
Like taking dust from the stars
What gave you the privilege?
Of taking me on an adventure through the mist
To some romantic galaxy
When all along
You could not commit
Like a robbery on Jupiter or Mars
You fly away
Stealin' my heart
Like taking dust from the stars
Like taking dust from the stars
Using all of me till there was nothing left
An emptiness I don't regret
So fly away if you must
And just scatter me
Just scatter me
Just scatter me
Like stardust
What gave you the privilege?
Of taking me to the universe edge...
Like a robbery on Jupiter or Mars
You fly away stealing my heart
Like taking dust from the stars
Like taking dust from the stars
Like taking dust from the stars...
Dust from the stars
