A Part Of Me

Kurt Nilsen A Part Of Me Lyrics
1.Singing The Song

You sing a song for feeling right
And you sing a song just knowing it's right
You write songs when everything's a mess
You sing a song to get it off your chest

You hate to brand what you're doing anyway
You close your eyes when you sing to yourself
Being what you are does not make a change
You sing a song for setting things straight

On and on, it's wonderful
But isn't there something missing
On and on, wherever you go
There's always someone listening
You sing a song for being in love
You sing the song that made it to the tops
Never get wise on music, so just let it go
You sing a song if it makes you grow

But on and on, it's wonderful
But isn't there something missing
On and on, wherever you go
There's always someone listening
On and on, it's wonderful
But isn't there something missing
On and on, wherever you go
There's always someone listening

You sing a song for making your day
You sing a song to take the pain away

On and on, it's wonderful
But isn't there something missing
On and on, wherever you go
There's always someone listening
On and on, it's wonderful
But isn't there something missing
On and on, wherever you go
There's always someone listening
On and on, it's wonderful
On and on, it's wonderful


2.Day Off

I see the morning sun from my window
Not a cloud for a mile or two
Wearing out my slippers when I walk
But that's what I'm supposed to do
What is the purpose, what am I doing here
When I ought to be at work
I'm going round and round in circles all day
Because I'm thinking about where it hurts

Look ahead, is this what I want to do
for the rest of my life
Well that's not right
Look ahead, does it mean that I'm afraid to give it a try
Yeah just a try

I'm taking a sick leave I got to make the call,
Just let him know that this is too hard
I can't figure out what I'm gonna say
Because telling my lies will end up bad anyway
A little scared as I dial the phone
Saying that the fever has got to my bone
I'm sweating like a pig when you return my call
Now get well soon and take the day off

Look ahead, is this what I want to do
for the rest of my life
Well that's not right
Look ahead, does it mean that I'm afraid to give it a try
Yeah just a try
Day off, day off
Day off, day off

Keeping a straight face trying to seem real
Enjoying myself, well here's the deal
I'm never ever going back there again
No, no Mmm, Mmm, no way at all
I'm never ever going back there again
I got to be honest with myself, yeah
I got to be honest with myself

Look ahead, is this what I want to do
for the rest of my life
Well that's not right
Look ahead, does it mean that I'm afraid to give it a try
Yeah just a try
Look ahead, is this what I want to do
for the rest of my life
that's not right
Look ahead, does it mean that I'm afraid to give it a try
Yeah just a try


3.My Street

Stop and stare, walking down the road again
For the better, some peace
Charm many in my life so everybody can hear that I,
live on the street, on my street
Yeah on my street

See the old guy with the broom in his hand,
Cleaning up what's left
The cavalry with my bad boys once again
Well I feel so complete, on my street
Calling my street

I will always be right here (Yeah)
I will always be right here (Yeah)
I will always be right here
Here on my street, calling my street

Fell in love for the first time in my life
Here on this bench
Said to myself I will always find the time
But then she moved away, from my street
Yeah on my street

I will always be right here (Yeah)
I will always be right here (Yeah)
I will always be right here
Here on my street
Oh, oh oh oh, ho ho oh
Oh, oh oh oh, ho ho oh

Many years have gone, I glance back to see
Growing up here was good
Many people say that 'don't you ever forget it'
'Try to come back soon'

I will always be right here (Yeah)
I will always be right here (Yeah)
I will always be right here
Here on my street, calling my street

Stop and stare, walking down the road again
For the better, some peace


4.Never Easy

Hmm hmm

Don't mind if you treat me bad again,
I don't care anymore
Life's too short to make trouble out of small things
It is better this way,
I'm sort of laid back today
Close my ears when words come flying out,
I've heard them all before
With just a lot of hope flushing down the drain,
it is better this way
I am going away

I tried and then some more
Instead of dragging the both of us down
Divide separate ways
It's never easy this way,
it's never easy this way

My palms are sweating, I'm barely aware,
what I'm turning down
This awful life that is what I've been told
think it's better this way
I will regret it one day

I tried and then some more
Instead of dragging the both of us down
Divide separate ways
It's never easy this way,
it's never easy this way
Talk too me, throw the ball back
I've been here before there is no turning back
Talk to me just tell it like it is
Just two afraid souls,
going at each other, at each other
We're at the crossroad going separate ways,
time to say it as it is
And if we bump into each other
one day we'll be better then
Maybe we can start all over again
Yeahhh

I tried and then some more
Instead of dragging the both of us down
Divide separate ways
It's never easy this way,
it's never easy this way
I tried and then some more
Instead of dragging the both of us down
Divide separate ways
It's never easy this way,
it's never easy this way


5.On My Mind

Take a look at yourself
You give me goosebumps down my spine,
I cannot focus on what's important
Because of you
And when you smile to me
Well I cannot breathe
I end up laughing with you
Without knowing what the troubles about
Yeh

On my mind
You're on my mind
You're on my mind all the time.

Have you ever considered
Not being so friendly to everyone
Just let go for a while
And when you try to be someone else
I end up laughing with you
And I know when you're all too good
Well but you're

On my mind
You're on my mind
You're on my mind all the time.

You're on my mind
You're on my mind
You're on my mind all the time.

Tell me stories
That I want to hear
Whisper in my ears
Some words for many years

On my mind
You're on my mind
You're on my mind all the time.

On my mind
You're on my mind
You're on my mind all the time.


6.Before You Leave

Stay, stay a little longer,
do you have to go away
Stay, stay for tomorrow,
then I will know, if I'd rather be alone
Take, take a moment of time and turn it back,
so we can start from scratch
Suppose, I leave all I got,
would it make it easier on your heart

I'll take what I can before you leave
If that is just a smile
I'll stay up all night so I can watch you breathe
That is all right
Come on and show me that silky skin
You're oh so fine
I know we could turn it right
I know we could turn it right
So right

Throw, throw me a lifeline
We had a team
Would you save me if it all goes wrong
Grab, grab me 'cause I'm yours
Forever that's for sure
That's what I want you to tell me

I'll take what I can before you leave
If that is just a smile
I'll stay up all night so I can watch you breathe
That is all right
Come on and show me that silky skin
You're oh so fine
I know we could turn it right
I know we could turn it right

It's all an illusion
Easier said than done
Let's make a conclusion
This is worth giving a try

I'll take what I can before you leave
If that is just a smile
I'll stay up all night so I can watch you breathe
That is all right
Come on and show me that silky skin
You're oh so fine
I know we could turn it right
ahh ahh ahh
ahh ahh ahh
ahh ahh ahh
ahh ahh ahh
ahh ahh ahh
ahh ahh ahhhhhhhhhhh

Come on and show me that silky skin
You're oh so fine
I know we could turn it right
I know we could turn it right


7.For You

How many times have I seen
You never get to keep the ones that you love
And if so, why bother
If you can pick and choose from the top of the shelf
It wouldn't work cause you'd be aiming too high
You wanna find someone alike for you, yeah
For you

I see you come here with the broken smile
What are you trying to do to yourself
Forget it and move on
You always want what's hard to get
When you get it, you want something else
Whatever that may be for you, yeah
For you
For you

All this time
Where did it go
I can't believe it's true
But you know I'm here for you, yeah
I'm here for you

So when you walk out there, let me in my thing
Best of luck, may you find your own way
Whatever that may be for you
For you


8.On The Road

I'm on the road, I miss my home
I keep on driving, to the break of dawn
And every house, looks all the same
I can't tell the difference, who am I to blame

It's alright to smile, got no complaints
Yeah I'm alright, claim to be the same
But I'm not anymore, that's for sure

Hmm mm mmm

If I start all over again,
would I have done it different
Would I be the same
Just as every love, that grows to be strong
I can't be there right now,
another turn comes along

It's alright to smile, got no complaints
Yeah I'm alright, claim to be the same
But I'm not anymore

I do the show and off I go,
I've done the best that I can
And as the sea go up and down, so do we
There's nothing wrong with that
I'm on my way back again,
it works better with greater things
If I stumble will you be there
Could use a hand, can I count on you

It's alright to smile, got no complaints
Yeah I'm alright, claim to be the same
It's alright to smile, got no complaints
Yeah I'm alright, claim to be the same
But I'm not anymore, that's for sure


9.A Part Of Me

Coming home to the sentence saying, I missed you
And to see your happy face again
There is not a single moment that I ever think the thought
Of not returning again
Summer went, got pale once more
A brand new city I have to explore
I've been searching for good answers and wisdom
I keep on coming back with less, 'cause I've lost home

She does not know, that a part of me has left home
Is never ever coming back,
there's nothing I can do with that
She does not know, that a part of me has left home
Is never ever coming back, never ever coming back
There's no sleep for the living nowadays
Hanging in there with a steady course
I can feel it from the back of my spine
I am totally yours
Autumn comes, I've seen it before
Another town is not that fun anymore
I've been searching for those perfect answers
I need you more right now than ever

She does not know, that a part of me has left home
Is never ever coming back,
there's nothing I can do with that
She does not know, that a part of me has left home
Is never ever coming back, never ever coming back

Coming home to the sentence saying, I missed you
And to see your happy face again

She does not know, that a part of me has left home
Is never ever coming back,
there's nothing I can do with that
She does not know, that a part of me has left home
Is never ever coming back, never ever coming back
She does not know, that a part of me has left home
Is never ever coming back,
there's nothing I can do with that
She does not know, that a part of me has left home
Is never ever coming back, never ever coming back

Ohh, ohhh..


10.No Excuse

Open up and let me in
I'm gettin' cold
I've been trying to prove you wrong
But now it's gettin' old
I've made some blunders I've made a few
I'm full of regrets

There's no excuse for what I've done
There's no excuse for what I've done
There's no excuse for what went wrong
Can you forget about it and move on

Open up and let me in
I'm begging you
I know I've done some big mistakes
But don't shove me out
I cannot turn back time and even if I could

There's no excuse for what I've done
There's no excuse for what I've done
There's no excuse for what went wrong
Can you forget about it and move on
Can you forget about it and move on

I know it cuts like a knife
The pain that I've done to you

There is no telling of what's to come
But I want to see it through
If I could take it away
You know I would

There's no excuse for what I've done
There's no excuse for what I've done
There's no excuse for what went wrong
Can you forget about it and move on
Can you forget about it and stay strong

Stay strong

Can you forget about it and move on
