What Do We Mean To Each Other (Sergio Mendes)

*I've long heard this song on the radio since I was a little kid and I didn't think anything of it back then. A couple of days earlier, I was utterly tormented trying to find out what the title of the song is and who sang it. I didn't really have a clue because the only line that stuck to my mind was 'Do you love me still or do you just mean well' and I got a false memory that it was Cher who sang this song due in part to the similar melody with 'After All,' a duet that she had with Peter Cetera. Danke schoen Sol! I couldn't have found everything without your help ;p*

I'd rather know if you had turned the page
If you go faster than I do
Suddenly it's not so clear just what I am to you
Am I friend, am I lover, do we still need each other
When you touch me, when you touch me baby I can tell

What do we mean to each other, am I friend, am I lover is it over now
If this is it then why bother tell me where do we take it from here
What do we mean to each other am I friend, am I lover, is it over now
Do you love me still or do you just mean well

I can see clearly how I'm hurting you
Every breath gives you a way
All we go on separate roads has gone in the way
Am I friend, am I lover, do we still need each other
When you hold me, when you hold me baby I can tell

What do we mean to each other, am I friend, am I lover is it over now
If this is it then why bother tell me where do we take it from here
What do we mean to each other am I friend, am I lover, is it over now
Do you love me still or do you just mean well

Time became a poison looking slowly on my home
Screwing all the memories, is it tearing us apart
When you touch me, when you touch me baby I can tell

What do we mean to each other, am I friend, am I lover is it over now
If this is it then why bother tell me where do we take it from here
What do we mean to each other am I friend, am I lover, is it over now
Do you love me still or do you just mean well

What do we mean to each other, am I friend, am I lover is it over now
If this is it then why bother tell me where do we take it from here
What do we mean to each other am I friend, am I lover, is it over now
Do you love me still or do you just mean well
Do you love me still or do you just mean well

Caught Out There (Kelis)

*Very first single that I heard from her, years before she released her super popular single-to-date 'Milkshake.' This is dedicated to my exes especially Mike the jock*

Last year, Valentine’s day, you would spoil me, say
"Babe, I love you, love you and I swear"
Held you when you were sick heavin’
The whole time I think to myself, this isn’t fair

What is this I see (No)
You don’t come home to me (Oh, no)
When you don’t come home to me (Man)
Can’t deal, can’t bear

You keep tellin’ me lies
But to your surprise
Look, I found her red coat
And your bitch caught out there

I hate you so much right now
I hate you so much right now
Ugh...
I hate you so much right now

I hate you so much right now
I hate you so much right now
Ugh...
I hate you so much right now

So sick of your games, I’ll set your truck to flames
And watch it blow up, blow up, tell me (How you gonna see it now)
So far I’m sincere {I love you}, fabrications in my ear
Drive me so far up the wall, I come slidin’ down

What is this I see (I don’t believe this)
You don’t come home to me
When you don’t come home to me
I can’t deal, can’t bear (I won’t)

You keep tellin’ me lies
But to your surprise
Look, I hope you’re happy
Since you’re caught out there

Yeah, you’ve been caught
Yo, come on
Come on

I hate you so much right now
I hate you so much right now
Ugh...
I hate you so much right now

I hate you so much right now
I hate you so much right now
Ugh...
I hate you so much right now

(She's so) Oh, cheap, so vulgar, not me, why the hell her
Look, she dresses (Look at her) a mess, what do you see (I don't know)
It's not all about cash (Hell, no), nor how much you flash
How I dress is a reflection of me

What is this I see
You don't come home to me (Uh-uh)
When you don't come home to me
Can't deal, can't bear (Told you I won't)

You keep tellin' me lies
But to your surprise
Look, I got somethin' for y'all
Since you're caught out there

I hate you so much right now
I hate you so much right now
Ugh...
I hate you so much right now

I hate you so much right now
I hate you so much right now
Ugh...
I hate you so much right now

I hate you so much right now
I hate you so much right now
Ugh...
I hate you so much right now

Since U've Been Gone (Kelly Clarkson)

*For another ex of mine - Jay the theater actor/serial philanderer/sex addict. Emphasize on the first three stanzas*

Here's the thing we started off friends
It was cool but it was all pretend
Yeah, yeah
Since you've been gone

You dedicated you took the time
Wasn't long till I called you mine
Yeah
Since you've been gone

And all you'd ever hear me say
Is how I pictured me with you
That's all you'd ever hear me say

But since you've been gone
I can breathe for the first time
I'm so movin' on
Yeah, yeah
Thanks to you
Now I get
What I want
Since you've been gone

How can I put it?
You put me on
I even fell for that stupid love song
Yeah, yeah
Since you've been gone

How come I never hear you say
I just wanna be with you
I guess you never felt that way

But since you've been gone
I can breathe for the first time
I'm so movin' on
Yeah, yeah
Thanks to you
Now I get I get what I want
Since you've been gone

You had your chance you blew it
Out of sight, out of mind
Shut your mouth I just can't take it
Again and again and again and again

Since you've been gone
I can breathe for the first time
I'm so movin' on
Yeah, yeah

Thanks to you (thanks to you)
Now I get
I get what I want
I can breathe for the first time
I'm so movin' on
Yeah, yeah
Thanks to you (thanks to you)
Now I get (I get)
You should know (you should know)
That I get
I get what I want
Since you've been gone
Since you've been gone
Since you've been gone

Time To Say Goodbye (Andrea Bocelli and Sarah Brightman)

*I must admit that I was a total ignoramus about a lot of musical genres outside of pop, punk, rock, alternative and hip-hop when I heard this song during my high school days. If I remember it right, it was the chart show of DeutscheWelle called Big (the predecessor of today's Pop Xport). Man, do I miss that show together with H.E.A.T. (English)/100 Grad (Deutsch)! I used to have the biggest crush on the tv presenter Alistair :D who hosts both English language shows. *

(Con te partir)
Sarah:
Quando sono sola
sogno all'orizzonte
e mancan le parole,
si lo so che non c' luce
in una stanza quando manca il sole,
se non ci sei tu con me, con me.
Su le finestre
mostra a tutti il mio cuore
che hai accesso,
chiudi dentro me
la luce che
hai incontrato per strada.

Time to say goodbye
Paesi che non ho mai
veduto e vissuto con te,
adesso si li vivr
Con te partir
su navi per mari
che, io lo so,
no, no, non esistono pi,
it's time to say goodbye

Andrea:
Quando sei lontana
sogno all'orizzonte
e mancan le parole,
e io si lo so
che sei con me, con me,
tu mia luna tu sei qui con me,
mio sole tu sei qui con me,
con me, con me, con me

Time to say goodbye
Paesi che non ho mai
veduto e vissuto con te,
adesso s li vivr.
Con te partir
su navi per mari
che, io lo so,
no, no, non esistono pi,

Both:
con te io li rivivr.
Con te partir
su navi per mari
che, io lo so,
no, no, non esistono pi,
con te io li rivivr.
Con te partir

Io con te.

The Only One (Lionel Richie)

*I got to know this song because of Angel, this is her favorite songs of all time. I did a little digging this afternoon and found out that this is a composition Lionel Richie collaborated with David Foster, the guy I consider to be the maestro of ballads. I just love David Foster's songs - it's all so very different (as varied as the artists he works with) and yet there's that distinct quality that makes it unmistakably a David Foster original.*

Let me tell you now
All that's on my mind
For a love like yours
Is oh, so very hard to find
I've looked inside myself
Now I'm very sure
There can only be, you for me
I need you more and more....

You, turned me inside out and you showed me
What life was about
Only you, the only one that stole my heart away
I wanna do all I can, just to show you
Make you understand
Only you, the only one that stole my heart away

When you're in my arms
When I'm close to you
There's a magic in your touch
That just comes shining through
Want you everyday
Want you every night
There can only be, you for me
You make it seem so right
Oh, girl, cause.....

You, turned me inside out and you showed me
What life was about
Only you, the only one that stole my heart away

In my mind, there's no other love
You're the only girl my heart and soul is thinking of
Only you, only me
There can never ever be another
That understands the way that I feel inside
Cause....

You,turned me inside out and you showed me
What life was about
Only you, the only one that stole my heart away
Yeah, you, turned me inside out and you showed me
What life was about
Only you, the only one that stole my heart away

(you stole my heart away)
You stole it (you stole my heart away)
Only you, the only one that stole my heart away
Yeah you (you stole my heart away)
Oh you stole it ( you stole my heart away)
Only you, the only one that stole my heart away
You stole my heart away
Stole it (you stole my heart away)
Only you baby, the only one that stole my heart away
