The Christmas Song lyrics - Boyce Avenue
(originally by Nat King Cole Trio)
Chestnuts roasting on an open fire
Jack Frost nipping at your nose
Yuletide carols being sung by a choir
And folks dressed up like Eskimos
Everybody knows a turkey and some mistletoe
Help to make the season bright
Tiny tots with their eyes all aglow
Will find it hard to sleep tonight
They know that Santa's on his way
He's loaded lots of toys and goodies on his sleigh
And every mother's child is gonna spy
To see if reindeer really know how to fly
And so I'm offering this simple phrase
To kids from one to ninety-two
Although it's been said many times many ways
Merry Christmas to you
And so I'm offering this simple phrase
To kids from one to ninety-two
Although it's been said many times many ways
Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas to you
The First Noel lyrics - Boyce Avenue
The first Noel the angels did say
Was to certain poor shepherds in fields as they lay
In fields where they lay keeping their sheep
On a cold winter's night that was so deep
Noel Noel Noel Noel
Born is the King of Israel
They looked up and saw a star
Shining in the east beyond them far
And to the earth it gave great light
And so it continued both day and night
Noel Noel Noel Noel
Born is the King of Israel
Noel Noel Noel Noel
Born is the King of Israel
Noel Noel Noel Noel
Born is the King of Israel
Born is the King of Israel
The Lady In Red lyrics - Boyce Avenue
(originally by Chris de Burgh)
I've never seen you looking so lovely as you did tonight
I've never seen you shine so bright mmm
I've never seen so many men ask you if you wanted to dance
They're looking for a little romance given half a chance
And I have never seen that dress you're wearing
Or the highlights in your hair that catch your eyes
I have been blind
The lady in red is dancing with me cheek to cheek
There's nobody here, it's just you and me
It's where I want to be
But I hardly know this beauty by my side
I'll never forget the way you look tonight
I've never seen you looking so gorgeous as you did tonight
I've never seen you shine so bright, you were amazing
I've never seen so many people want to be there by your side
And when you turned to me and smiled it took my breath away
And I have never had such a feeling
Such a feeling of complete and utter love as I do tonight
The lady in red is dancing with me cheek to cheek
There's nobody here, it's just you and me
It's where I want to be
Well I hardly know this beauty by my side
I'll never forget the way you look tonight
I never will forget the way you look tonight
Lady in red
The lady in red
My lady in red
The Scientist lyrics - Boyce Avenue (feat. Hannah Trigwell)
(originally by Coldplay)
Come up to meet you
Tell you I'm sorry
You don't know how lovely you are
I had to find you
Tell you I need you
Tell you I'll set you apart
Tell me your secrets
And ask me your questions
Oh let's go back to the start
Running in circles
Coming up tails
Heads on a science apart
Nobody said it was easy
Oh it's such a shame for us to part
Nobody said it was easy
No one ever said it would be this hard
Oh take me back to the start
I was just guessing at numbers and figures
Pulling your puzzles apart
Questions of science
Science and progress
Do not speak as loud as my heart
Tell me you love me
And come back and haunt me
Oh when I rush to the start
Running in circles
Chasing up tails
Coming back as we are
Nobody said it was easy
Oh it's such a shame for us to part
Nobody said it was easy
No one ever said it would be so hard
I'm going back to the start
Oh take me back to the start
Oh take us back to the start
The Sound Of Silence lyrics - Boyce Avenue
(originally by Simon & Garfunkel)
Hello darkness my old friend
I've come to talk with you again
Because a vision softly creeping
Left its seeds while I was sleeping
And the vision
That was planted in my brain
Still remains
Within the sound of silence
In restless dreams I walked alone
Narrow streets of cobblestone
'Neath the halo of a street lamp
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
When my eyes were stabbed
By the flash of a neon light
That split the night
And touched the sound of silence
And in the naked light I saw
Ten thousand people maybe more
People talking without speaking
People hearing without listening
People writing songs that voices never shared
And no one dared
Disturb the sound of silence
Fools said I you do not know
Silence like a cancer grows
Hear my words that I might teach you
Take my arms that I might reach you
But my words like silent raindrops fell
And echoed in the wells of silence
And the people bowed and prayed
To the neon god they made
And the sign flashed out its warning
In the words that it was forming
And the sign said the words of the prophets are
Written on the subway walls
In tenement halls
And whispered in the sounds of silence
The Way It Is lyrics - Boyce Avenue & Alex Goot
(originally by Bruce Hornsby)
Standing in line marking time
Waiting for the welfare dime
Cause they can't buy a job
The man in the silk suit hurries by
As he catches the poor old ladies eyes
Just for fun he says get a job
That's just the way it is
Some things will never change
That's just the way it is
Ah but don't you believe them
Said hey little boy
You can't go where the others go
Cause you don't look like they do
Said hey old man
How can you stand to think that way
Did you really think about it
Before you made the rules
He said son
That's just the way it is
Some things will never change
That's just the way it is
Ah but don't you believe them
Yeah
Well they passed a law in '64
To give those who ain't got a little more
But it only goes so far
Cause the law don't change another's mind
When all it sees at the hiring time
Is the line on the color bar
That's just the way it is
Some things will never change
That's just the way it is
That's just the way it is, it is, it is, it is...
That's just the way it is
The way it is
That's just the way it is
This I Promise You lyrics - Boyce Avenue
When the visions around you
Bring tears to your eyes
And all that's around you
Are secrets and lies
I'll be your strength
I'll give you hope
Keeping your faith when it's gone
The one you should call
Was standing here all along
And I will take you in my arms
And hold you right where you belong
Til the day my life is through
This I promise you
This I promise you
I've loved you forever
In lifetimes before
And I promise you never
Will you hurt anymore
I give you my word
I give you my heart
This is a battle we've won
And with this vow
Forever has now begun
Just close your eyes
Each loving day
And know this feeling won't go away
No til the day my life is through
This I promise you
This I promise you
Over and over I fall
When I hear you call
Without you in my life baby
I just wouldn't be living at all
And I will take you in my arms (I will take you in my arms)
And hold you right where you belong (right where you belong)
Til the day my life is through
This I promise you babe
Just close your eyes each loving day (each loving day)
And know this feeling won't go away (no)
Every word I say is true
This I promise you
Every word I say is true
This I promise you
Ooh I promise you
Time In A Bottle lyrics - Boyce Avenue
(originally by Jim Croce)
If I could save time in a bottle
The first thing that I'd like to do
Is to save every day 'til eternity passes away
Just to spend them with you
If I could make days last forever
If words could make wishes come true
I'd save every day like a treasure, and then
Again, I would spend them with you
But there never seems to be enough time
To do the things you want to do once you find them
I've looked around enough to know
That you're the one I want to go through time with
If I had a box just for wishes
And dreams that had never come true
The box would be empty
Except for the memory of how they were answered by you
But there never seems to be enough time
To do the things you want to do once you find them
I've looked around enough to know
That you're the one I want to go through time with
True Colors lyrics - Boyce Avenue & Rachel Grae
(originally by Cyndi Lauper)
You with the sad eyes
Don't be discouraged
Oh I realize
It's hard to take courage
In a world full of people
You can lose sight of it
And the darkness inside you
Makes you feel so small
But I see your true colors
Shining through
I see your true colors
That's why I love you
So don't be afraid to let them show
Your true colors
True colors are beautiful
Ooo like a rainbow
Show me a smile then
Don't be unhappy
Can't remember when
I last saw you laughing
If this world makes you crazy
And you've taken all you can bear
Just call me up
Because you know I'll be there
And I see your true colors
Shining through
I see your true colors
And that's why I love you
So don't be afraid to let them show
Just show your true colors
True colors are beautiful
Ooo like a rainbow
Such sad eyes
Take courage now
And realize
When this world makes you crazy
And you've taken all you can bear
Just call me up
Because you know I'll be there
And I see your true colors
Shining through
I see your true colors
And that's why I love you
So don't be afraid to let them show
Your true colors
True colors
True colors are beautiful
Beautiful like a rainbow
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Show me your colors
(Show me your colors)
Show me your rainbow
(Show me your rainbow)
Show me your colors
Show me your rainbow
That's why I love you
Walking Away lyrics - Boyce Avenue
(originally by Craig David)
I'm walking away
From the troubles in my life
I'm walking away
Oh to find a better day
I'm walking away
From the troubles in my life
I'm walking away
Oh to find a better day
I'm walking away
Sometimes some people get me wrong
When it's something I've said or done
Sometimes you feel there is no fun
That's why you turn and run
But now I truly realize
Some people don't wanna compromise
Well I saw them with my own eyes
Spreading those lies and
Well I don't wanna live my life
Too many sleepless nights
Not mentioning the fights
I'm sorry to say, lady
I'm walking away
From the troubles in my life
I'm walking away
Oh to find a better day
I'm walking away
From the troubles in my life
I'm walking away
Oh to find a better day
I'm walking away
Well I'm so tired baby
Things you say you're driving me away
Whispers in the powder room, baby
Don't listen to the games they play
Girl, I thought you'd realize
I'm not like them other guys
Cause I saw them with my own eyes
You should've been more wise and
Well I don't wanna live my life
Too many sleepless nights
Not mentioning the fights
I'm sorry to say lady
I'm walking away
(Oh I'm walking away)
From the troubles in my life
(From the troubles in my life)
I'm walking away
Oh to find a better day
I'm walking away (I'm walking away)
From the troubles in my life (troubles in my life)
I'm walking away (I'm walking away)
Oh to find a better day
I'm walking away (I'm walking away)
From the troubles in my life (I tried to show you, baby)
I'm walking away (oh yeah, oh yeah)
Oh to find a better day oh (oh I'm gonna, I'm gonna find a better day)
I'm walking away (oh yeah)
From the troubles in my life (from the troubles in my life, baby)
I'm walking away (baby)
Oh to find a better day
I'm walking away
What Child Is This lyrics - Boyce Avenue
What child is this, who, laid to rest
On Mary's lap is sleeping?
Whom angels greet with anthems sweet
While shepherds watch are keeping?
This, this is Christ the King
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing
Haste, haste to bring Him praise
The babe, the son of Mary
So bring Him incense, gold and myrrh
Come peasant King to own Him
The King of Kings salvation brings
Let loving hearts enthrone Him
This, this is Christ the King
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing
Haste, haste to bring Him praise
The babe, the son of Mary
This, this is Christ the King
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing
Haste, haste to bring Him praise
The babe, the son of Mary
The babe, the son of Mary
What Makes You Beautiful lyrics - Boyce Avenue
You're insecure
Don't know what for
You're turning heads when you walk through the door
Don't need make-up
To cover up
Being the way that you are is enough
Everyone else in the room can see it
Everyone else but you
Baby you light up my world like nobody else
The way that you flip your hair gets me overwhelmed
But when you smile at the ground it ain't hard to tell
You don't know, oh oh
You don't know you're beautiful, oh oh
That's what makes you beautiful
So girl come on
You got it wrong
To prove I'm right
I put it in a song
I don't know why
You're being shy
And turn away when I look in your eyes
Everyone else in the room can see it
Everyone else but you
Baby you light up my world like nobody else
The way that you flip your hair gets me overwhelmed
But when you smile at the ground it ain't hard to tell
You don't know, oh oh
You don't know you're beautiful, oh oh
That's what makes you beautiful
That's what makes you beautiful
Baby you light up my world like nobody else
The way that you flip your hair gets me overwhelmed
But when you smile at the ground it ain't hard to tell
You don't know, oh oh
You don't know you're beautiful
That's what makes you beautiful
That's what makes you beautiful
That's what makes you beautiful
Baby you light up my world like nobody else
The way that you flip your hair gets me overwhelmed
But when you smile at the ground it ain't hard to tell
You don't know, oh oh
You don't know you're beautiful
If only you saw what I can see
You'll understand why I want you so desperately
Right now I'm looking at you and I can't believe
You don't know, oh oh
You don't know you're beautiful
You don't know you're beautiful
And that's what makes you beautiful
Wicked Game lyrics - Boyce Avenue
(originally by Chris Isaak)
The world was on fire and no one could save me but you
It's strange what desire will make foolish people do
I never dreamed that I'd meet somebody like you
And I never dreamed that I'd lose somebody like you
Now I wanna fall in love
Now I wanna fall in love
With you
With you
What a wicked game you play, to make me feel this way
What a wicked thing to do, to let me dream of you
What a wicked thing to say, you never felt this way
What a wicked thing to do, to make me dream of you
And now I wanna fall in love
Now I wanna fall in love
With you
Oh, with you
Now I wanna fall in love
Now I wanna fall in love
Ohhh
Now I
Now I wanna fall in love
Wonderful Tonight lyrics - Boyce Avenue
(originally by Eric Clapton)
It's late in the evening
She's wondering what clothes to wear
She puts on her make-up
And brushes her long blonde hair
And then she asks me
Do I look all right?
And I say
Yes, you look wonderful tonight
We go to a party
And everyone turns to see
This beautiful lady
That's walking around with me
And then she asks me
Do you feel all right?
And I say
Yes, I feel wonderful tonight
I feel wonderful
Because I see the love light in your eyes
And the wonder of it all
Is that you just don't realize
How much I love you
It's time to go home now
And I've got an achin' head
So I give her the car keys
She helps me to bed
And then I tell her
As I turn out the light
I say, my darlin'
You were wonderful tonight
Oh my darlin'
You were wonderful tonight
Yesterday lyrics - Boyce Avenue
(originally by The Beatles)
Yesterday all my troubles seemed so far away.
Now it looks as though they're here to stay.
Oh, I believe in yesterday.
Suddenly, I'm not half the man I used to be.
There's a shadow hanging over me.
Oh, yesterday came suddenly.
Why she had to go?
I don't know, she wouldn't say.
I said something wrong.
Now I long for yesterday.
Yesterday love was such an easy game to play.
Now I need a place to hide away.
Oh, I believe in yesterday.
Why she had to go?
I don't know, she wouldn't say.
I said something wrong.
Now I long for yesterday.
Yesterday love was such an easy game to play.
Now I need a place to hide away.
Oh, I believe in yesterday.
Mm mm mm mm mm mm mm.
