boys like girls have really really nice songs. here's a medley of lyrics from a couple or more of their songs that really struck me today.
'Cause all the roads they lead to where you are
And all the streetlights shine like they were stars
That's where you are
Let's spend tonight on top of the world
And we can do anything,
We can be anything
I'll meet you tonight on top of the world
As real as it seems,
You're only in my dreams
I have to find a way
To show you I care
Even if you're not there
So I'm following the road to where you are
The streetlights they will guide me to the stars
That's where you are
It's over, look out below
and I'm wasted, I still taste it
Yeah it's so hard to let go
So breathe in now, and breathe it out
The forecast; A car crash
It's looking like another
Breakdown, rebound
This could be my last goodbye
You crossed your heart, I hope to die
And I can't deny your eyes
You know I tried to read between the lines,
I saw a warning sign
And then you threw me up against the wall
Who said that it's better to have loved and lost?
I wish that I had never loved at all
No rewinds, no second times
I won't break, I won't waste
Everything you left behind
So don't follow, just let it go
Turn it up
It's five minutes to midnight
You're coming home with me tonigh
tI can't get enough, shakin' me up
Turn it up
AlrightAt five minutes to midnight
You see our name in city lights
We'll make the clock stop
Make your heart drop
And come alive
And when the clock strikes twelve
Will you find another boy to
Go and kiss and tell'
Cause you know I never will
I think we should strike a match
And we'll hold it to the wind to
See how long it lasts
We can make the time stand still
Could you be with him?
Or was it just a lie?
He doesn't GET you like I do
And you don't know why
You change your clothes and your hair
But I can't change your mind
Oh, I'm uninvited
So unrequited now
I'm learning to fall
I can't hardly breathe
when I'm going down don't worry 'bout me
Don't try this at home
Pretend you don't see
I don't want to know that you know, it should have been me
Words screaming in my head
Why did you leave?
And I can't stop dreaming
Watching you and him
When it should have been
It should have been me
Throw it away
Forget yesterday
We'll make the great escape
We wont hear a word they say
They don't know us anyway
Watch it burn
Let it die
Cause we are finally free tonight
Tonight will change our lives
It's so good to be by your side
We'll cryWe won't give up the fight
We'll scream loud at the top of our lungs
And they'll think its just cause were young
And we'll feel so alive
All of the wasted time
The hours that were left behind me
The answers that we'll never find
They dont mean a thing tonight
Today is a winding road
Tell me where to start and tell me something I don't know, whoa
Today I'm on my own
I cant move a muscle and I cant pick up the phone, I don't know
And now I'm itching for the tall grass
And longing for the breeze
I need to step outside, just to see if I can breathe
I gotta find a way out
Maybe there's a way out
Your voice was the soundtrack of my summer
Do you know you're unlike any other?
You'll always be my thunder, and I said
Your eyes are the brightest of all the colors
I don't wanna ever love another
You'll always be my thunder
So bring on the rain,
And bring on the thunder.
Yeah I'm walking on a tightrope
I'm wrapped up in vines
I think Ill make it out but you just gotta give me time
Strike me down with lightning
Let me feel you in my veins
I wanna let you know how much I feel your pain
