Matters of the Heart
03:31

I’ve been in love most of my life
Less or more
And I never doubted the power of it all
I’m not one to cry over matters of the heart
But it’s hard to resist when it’s burns from the start
Maybe Beatles had it right
And love is all you need
But it hurts to be alive
When all it does is leave
When all it ever does
Is leave
How many days, how many hours have I spent
Crying in vain, cursing in bed
My heart‘s been aching, been breaking, been torn
And still it keeps yearning for more
Maybe Beatles had it right
And love is all you need
But it hurts to be alive
When all it does is leave
When all it ever does
Is leave
The books and the stories, they taught me long ago
Blessed is he, who doesn’t give up hope
But I don’t have much left, and what little I do
Ain’t enough to find someone new
Maybe Beatles had it right
And love is all you need
But it hurts to be alive
When all it does is leave
When all it ever does
Is leave
So I’m left in the dark, sitting down finally
And if someone’s really out there, they’ll have to come to me
Cuz I’m done trying my hardest, just to end up in tears
It’s time for someone else to find me here
Maybe Beatles had it right
And all you need is love
So you struggle to survive
Hoping it’s enough
Hoping it will be enough
Lalalala
lalalalalala
lallalalalalala
Maybe Beatles had it right
And love is all you need
But it hurts to be alive
When all it does is leave
When all it ever does
Is leave
When all it ever does
Is leave
When all it ever does
Is leave

Sandman

Hit me with a truck and put me out a little while
I don’t wanna die, or stay alive
Let me slip into a dream, this world can’t begin to compete
I’ve never really liked reality
So mister Sandman please
Grant me just a little sleep
Oh mister sandman please
I’ve turned and I have tossed and I have counted sheep and lost
Oh mister sandman
The snow lingers in the air, it’s barely falling at all
And I linger in my bed only to stall
This city I call home is still as foreign as can be
Naked and exposed steel and concrete
So mister Sandman please
Grant me just a little sleep
Oh mister sandman please
I’ve turned and I have tossed and I have counted sheep and lost
Oh mister sandman
This overcrowded world makes my apartment seem so bare
Sometimes I wonder if I’m even there
The snow lingers in the air, it’s barely falling at all
And I linger in my bed, only to stall
So mister Sandman please
Grant me just a little sleep
Oh mister sandman please
I’ve turned and I have tossed and I have counted sheep and lost
Oh mister sandman
Hit me with a truck and put me out a little while
I don’t wanna die or stay alive
I don’t wanna die or stay alive
I don’t wanna die or stay alive
