Jason Mraz - Lucky featuring Colbie Caillat

Awww, this song is so sweet. Makes me wanna sign a duet with Gio:

Lucky

Do you hear me,
I'm talking to you
Across the water across the deep blue ocean
Under the open sky, oh my, baby I'm trying
Boy I hear you in my dreams
I feel your whisper across the sea
I keep you with me in my heart
You make it easier when life gets hard

I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again
Ooohh ooooh oooh oooh ooh ooh ooh ooh

They don't know how long it takes
Waiting for a love like this
Every time we say goodbye
I wish we had one more kiss
I'll wait for you I promise you, I will

I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again
Lucky we're in love every way
Lucky to have stayed where we have stayed
Lucky to be coming home someday

And so I'm sailing through the sea
To an island where we'll meet
You'll hear the music fill the air
I'll put a flower in your hair
Though the breezes through trees
Move so pretty you're all I see
As the world keeps spinning round
You hold me right here right now

I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again
I'm lucky we're in love every way
Lucky to have stayed where we have stayed
Lucky to be coming home someday

Ooohh ooooh oooh oooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooooh ooooh oooh oooh ooh ooh ooh ooh

Gravity - John Mayer - Take 2

So, I think I like the LIVE version even better.... his little intro, with the run that goes up... killer...

Gravity by John Mayer - Video and Lyrics

This is one of my favorite songs of all time… I`m addicted to it…






Gravity
Is working against me
And gravity
Wants to bring me down

Whoa I'll never know
What makes this man
With all the love
That his heart can stand
Dream of ways
To throw it all away

Whoa Gravity
Is working against me
And gravity
Wants to bring me down

Oh twice as much
Ain’t twice as good
And can't sustain
Like one half could
It's wanting more
It's gonna send me to my knees

instrumental

Oh twice as much
Ain’t twice as good
And can't sustain
Like one half could
It's wanting more
It's gonna send me to my knees

Oh gravity
Stay the hell away from me
Oh gravity
Has taken better men than me
Now how can that be?

Just keep me where the light is
Just keep me where the light is
Just keep me where the light is
C’mon keep me where the light is
C’mon keep me where the light is
C’mon keep me where keep me where the light is

A Song For you

Once, a few years back, my ex-sis-in-law (yeah that`s right, my bro used to be married to her)asked me to sing at her wedding (yeah, that`s right, they got divorced and she was getting re-married) to sing at her wedding. I sang at her first wedding (YES, her wedding to my brother, jeez you have a lot of questions) and so she thought it might be special if I sang at her second as well (Yay for me!). The first time I was like 17, and I sang "Evergreen" by Barbra Streisand...
"Two lives that shine as one
Morning glory and midnight sun
Time we`ve learned to sail above
Time wont change the meaning of one love
Ageless and ever evergreen"

So, this time I was like 25, and I wanted to do something more soulful. I felt my style and taste had changed and she had no requests. So, I thought for a long time... and I came up with "A Song for You" by Donny Hathaway....

"love you in a place where there's no space or time
I love you for in my life you are a friend of mine
And when my life is over
Remember when we were together
We were alone and I was singing this song for you"

That song has stayed with me ever since. I think of it often and sing it when I`m in the car, shower, backyard... LOL... I still love that song. Oh God, it`s just amazing.
