Big Time Rush - If I Ruled The World (feat. IYAZ) (Lyrics)

posted by NickelodeonLove

Ya know it's your boy I-Y-A-Z and big time rush! (woo! [echo])

If I ruled the world, I'd throw all the money
In the air like confetti
If I ruled the world, every house got a DJ and a backyard party.
And I'd break all the borders down, when I shake the ground

If I ruled the world
I'd dream out loud

So everybody get up, up
Out of your seats
Kick off your shoes, like you're down at the beach
Jump up, up, up
On the beat singing "Aye oh! ", "Aye oh! ", "Aye oh! "
Up, up, out of your seats
Be who you are love is all you need
All of us Geeks, freaks and wannabes singing "Aye oh! "

If I ruled the world, I would give...

Victoria Justice - Best Friend's Brother (Lyrics)

posted by NickelodeonLove

I call you up when I know he's at home
I jump out of my skin when he picks up the phone
Why can't I tell if he's looking at me?
Should I give him a smile?
Should I get up and leave?

I know it's strange
I don't know what I'm thinking
But is it wrong
If I see him this weekend?

I really hope I can get him alone
I just don't, don't want her to know

[Chorus:]
Yeah
My best friend's brother
Is the one for me
Yeah
A punk rock drummer
And he's 6 foot 3
I don't want to
But I want to
'Cause I just can't get him out of my mind!
Yeah
My best friend's brother
Is the one for me
BFB [2x]
My best friend's brother [2x]

Journey - Don't Stop Believin' (Lyrics)

posted by NickelodeonLove

Just a small town girl
Livin' in a lonely world
She took the midnight train
Goin' anywhere
Just a city boy
Born and raised in South Detroit
He took the midnight train
Goin' anywhere

A singer in a smokey room
The smell of wine and cheap perfume
For a smile they can share the night
It goes on and on and on and on

Strangers waiting
Up and down the boulevard
Their shadows searching
In the night
Streetlight people
Livin' just to find emotion
Hidin' somewhere in the night

Workin' hard to get my fill
Everybody wants a thrill
Payin' anything to roll the dice
Just one more time
Some will win
Some will lose
Some were born to...

Justin Bieber - Love Yourself (Lyrics)

posted by NickelodeonLove

For all the times that you rain on my parade
And all the clubs you get in using my name
You think you broke my heart, oh, girl for goodness' sake
You think I'm crying on my own. Well, I ain't

And I didn't wanna write a song
'Cause I didn't want anyone thinking I still care. I don't,
But you still hit my phone up
And, baby, I be movin' on
And I think you should be somethin' I don't wanna hold back,
Maybe you should know that

My mama don't like you and she likes everyone
And I never like to admit that I was wrong
And I've been so caught up in my job,
Didn't see what's going on
But now I know,
I'm better sleeping...

Before He Cheats lyrics

Before He Cheats lyrics
By Carrie Underwood

Right now he's probably slow dancing with a bleach blond tramp,
and she's probably getting frisky...
right now, he's probably buying her some fruity little drink cause she can't shoot whiskey...
Right now, he's probably up behind her with a pool-stick, showing her how to shoot a combo...
And he don't know...

That I dug my key into the side of his pretty little souped up 4 wheel drive,
carved my name into his leather seats...
I took a Louisville slugger to both headlights,
slashed a hole in all 4 tires...
Maybe next time he'll think before he cheats.

Right now,...

Goodbye Yellow Brick Road lyrics

Goodbye Yellow Brick Road lyrics
By Elton John

When are you gonna come down
When are you going to land
I should have stayed on the farm
I should have listened to my old man
You know you can't hold me forever
I didn't sign up with you
I'm not a present for your friends to open
This boy's too young to be singing
The blues

So goodbye yellow brick road
Where the dogs of society howl
You can't plant me in your penthouse
I'm going back to my plough
Back to the howling old owl in the woods
Hunting the horny back toad
Oh I've finally decided my future lies
Beyond the yellow brick road

What do you think you'll do then...

Because You Love Me by Celine Dion

posted by -carola-fan-

For all those times you stood by me
For all the truth that you made me see
For all the joy you brought to my life
For all the wrong that you made right
For every dream you made come true
For all the love I found in you
I'll be forever thankful baby
You're the one who held me up
Never let me fall
You're the one who saw me through through it all

You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me
Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith 'coz you believed
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me

You gave me...

But the hottest bitch in heels right here
No fear

Victoria Justice - All I Want Is Everything (Lyrics)

posted by NickelodeonLove

I feel delirious, come let's get out of here
We're so anonymous but it's all coming clear

We're heading for the sky
And we'll get lost in it cause
All I want, all I want, all I want is everything

And I will pose if I wanna
And I will vogue like Madonna
I might not dance like MJ RIP
But I will give the best of me

All I want is everything
Yes everything too much is not enough
I'm sick of settling for in between
And I'm not givin' up
As long as it feels right
At least we know that we're alive
All I want is everything, yes everything, yeah
Whoa oh

We don't ever stop
Let's watch the sun come up
We'll sleep when we're...

On the music reviewing/ cataloguing site rateyourmusic.com, a reviewer of Taylor Swift's first album commented that it was "Almost like a country girl version of the early Beatles." When I first saw that review, it made me angry- how dare they disrespect a legend like The Beatles by comparing them to someone like Taylor Swift. I like both but The Beatles are one of my favourite artists whereas Taylor Swift is more of a guilty pleasure for me- but at the time I read this she wasn't even that. When I first read that review, it was before Lover but after reputation, which probably partly explains...

Pink - Fuckin' Perfect Lyrics

posted by Hot_n_cold

Made a wrong turn
Once or twice
Dug my way out
Blood and fire
Bad decisions
That's alright
Welcome to my silly life

Mistreated this place
Misunderstood
Miss knowing it's all good
It didnt slow me down.

Mistaking
Always second guessing
Underestimating
Look I'm still around

Pretty, pretty please
Dont you ever, ever feel
Like you're less than
Fucking perfect

Pretty, pretty please
If you ever, ever feel
Like you're nothing
You're fucking perfect to me

You're so mean
When you talk
About yourself, you were wrong
Change the voices in your head

Make them like you instead
So complicated
Look how we all make it
Filled with so much...

Chicago - Alive Again (Lyrics)

posted by NickelodeonLove

Yesterday I would not have believed
That tomorrow the sun would shine
Then one day you came into my life
I am alive again I am alive again
All the empty yesterdays have disappeared
Now that you have filled my life with love
No one else could ever mean so much to me
Every day my high lasts longer
As our love grows ever stronger
Yesterday I would not have believed
That tomorrow the sun would shine
Then one day you came into my life
I am alive again I am alive again
When you gave your love to me you changed my life
Dreams that once seemed hopeless come with ease
Thank you girl for being just the way you are
I would never try to change you
All I live for is to love you
I'm feeling alive again
I'm feeling alive again

Chicago - Love Me Tomorrow (Lyrics)

posted by NickelodeonLove

She said, "It's lonely here tonight." She's always sad when she's alone.
She said, "I need you here tonight." She couldn't wait 'til I get home.
She loves me, and that's all I need to know.
She's part of my life; just a part I won't let go.
Then she said,

"Love me tomorrow. Won't you please promise me? Love me tomorrow like today.
Love me tomorrow; hurry back. Can't you see I need you much more than yesterday?"

You know it's always cold at night; it's always lonely 'til the dawn.
And though it's not what we both want, knowing she's there, I'll carry on.
Because she loves me, and that's all I need to...

Peter Cetera - The Lucky Ones (Lyrics)

posted by NickelodeonLove

Sometimes you're sentimental
I know exactly what to do
And if I'm temperamental
You calm me down and you pull me through

[chorus]
We are the lucky ones
We have one another
When the end of the day has come
I return to you

Life can be so demanding
Sometimes it's hard to make it through
It's love and understanding
You give to me, I give to you

[chorus]

Our own fairy tale
Our favorite bedtime story
One that we won't forget
We fell in love
We knew from the start
We'd always be together
The first time that we met
Can't forget

[chorus]

All alone in the setting sun
I'll have you and you'll have me

Ed Sheeran - Photograph (Lyrics)

posted by NickelodeonLove

Loving can hurt
Loving can hurt sometimes
But it's the only thing that I know
When it gets hard
You know it can get hard sometimes
It is the only thing that makes us feel alive

We keep this love in a photograph
We made these memories for ourselves
Where our eyes are never closing
Hearts are never broken
Times forever frozen still

So you can keep me
Inside the pocket
Of your ripped jeans
Holdin' me closer
'Til our eyes meet
You won't ever be alone
Wait for me to come home

Loving can heal
Loving can mend your soul
And it's the only thing that I know (know)
I swear it will get easier
Remember that with every piece...

ABBA -S.O.S. (Lyrics)

posted by NickelodeonLove

Where are those happy days, they seem so hard to find
I tried to reach for you, but you have closed your mind
Whatever happened to our love?
I wish I understood
It used to be so nice, it used to be so good

So when you're near me, darling can't you hear me
S. O. S.
The love you gave me, nothing else can save me
S. O. S.
When you're gone
How can I even try to go on?
When you're gone
Though I try how can I carry on?

You seem so far away though you are standing near
You made me feel alive, but something died I fear
I really tried to make it out
I wish I understood
What happened to our love, it used to be so good...

Big Time Rush - Confetti Falling (Lyrics)

posted by NickelodeonLove

Uooh Oohh celebration

All this talk about being in love
I could never get into the party
Never really understood what it was
Like what's the big deal anyway?

Oh, but I decided I should give it a try
The very moment that you gave me the invite
I've never seen anything like it before
Once you open the door
See I was like...

Oh yeah yeah don't get any better
Oh yeah yeah wish that this was forever
Your heart calling
Feels like confetti falling
And it's a celebration,
Feels like a celebration
Cause your heart calling
Feels like confetti falling down, down, down.

And everybody's gonna make an appearance
Even the butterflies...
