NORAH JONES "DON'T KNOW WHY" (LYRICS)

Don't Know Why by Norah Jones

I waited 'til I saw the sun
I don't know why I didn't come
I left you by the house of fun
I don't know why I didn't come
I don't know why I didn't come

When I saw the break of day
I wished that I could fly away
Instead of kneeling in the sand
Catching teardrops in my hand

My heart is drenched in wine
But you'll be on my mind
Forever

Out across the endless sea
I would die in ecstasy
But I'll be a bag of bones
Driving down the road along

My heart is drenched in wine
But you'll be on my mind
Forever

Something has to make you run
I don't know why I didn't come
I feel as empty as a drum
I don't know why I didn't come
I don't know why I didn't come
I don't know why I didn't come

THE CORRS "WHAT CAN I DO" (LYRICS)

I haven´t slept at all in days
It´s been so long since we have talked
And I have been here many times
I just don´t know what i´m doing wrong

What can I do to make you love me
What can I do to make you care
What can I say to make feel this
What can I do to get you there

There´s only so much I can take
And I just got to let it go
And who knows I might feel better
If I don´t try and I don´t hope

[Chorus]

No more waiting, no more aching
No more fighting, no more trying...

Maybe there´s nothing more to say
And in a funny way I´m calm
Because the power is not mine
I´m just going to let it fly...
[Chorus]
Love me...
