Challenge 23: Sing Me a Tune....
This is for gleeverse's fanmix challenge. I've never done anything like this before so yeah. It may suck. Meh.
This is a mix I would give Rachel if I was a part of the Glee universe and wanted to do something nice in the wake of Finn's total destruction of her heart. And seriously, you know it's bad when I, a person who doesn't really LIKE Rachel half the time, would give her a mix CD to help her heal. Or at least start to. Anyway, here ya go! :)
01. I Fall To Pieces - Patsy Cline
I fall to pieces,
Each time I see you again.
I fall to pieces.
How can I be just your friend?
You want me to act like we've never kissed.
You want me to forget, pretend we've never met.
And I've tried and I've tried, but I haven't yet.
You walk by and I fall to pieces.
~listen~
02. Keep Me Hanging On - Jypsi
My heart is like a yo-yo on a string,
I'm tied to you, right or wrong.
My love keeps growing cause your love keeps showing,
Just enough to keep me hangin' on.
A love as strong as mine will make me do most anything,
like hiding tears and heartaches and dreaming silly dreams.
You've got me where you want me, you keep stringing me along,
just enough to keep me hangin' on.
03. When Will I Be Loved - Linda Ronstadt
I've been cheated
Been mistreated
When will I be loved
I've been pushed down
I've been pushed 'round
When will I be loved
~listen~
04. Ex-Factor - Lauryn Hill
It could all be so simple
But you'd rather make it hard
Loving you is like a battle
And we both end up with scars
Tell me, who I have to be
To get some reciprocity
See, no one loves you more than me
And no one ever will
Is this just a silly game
That forces you to act this way
Forces you to scream my name
Then pretend that you can't stay
Tell me, who I have to be
To get some reciprocity
See, no one loves you more than me
And no one ever will
~listen~
05. Stranded - Heart
Wasn't it you
Who brought me here
To the place lovers go
Just look at these arms
Reaching out to you
You said that you'd always care
I just turned around
And there's nobody there
Don't leave me like this
Don't leave me stranded
If you walk away now
You leave me empty handed
Don't leave me like this
Don't leave me stranded
Don't leave me now
Don't leave me...
~listen~
06. I'd Rather Go Blind - Etta James
Something told me it was over
When I saw you and her talkin'
Something deep down in my soul said, 'Cry, girl'
When I saw you and that girl walkin' around
Whoo, I would rather, I would rather go blind, boy
Then to see you walk away from me, child, no
~listen~
07. Me Dueles - La Quinta Estación
Me dueles tan hondo tan dentro,
me dueles como un lamento,
me dueles como una espina,
me dueles como una mentira.
Me dueles como duele el tiempo,
que yo he tirado a tu lado,
me dueles como duelen los ojos,
de haberte llorado tanto.
Y me dueles...
rough translation here but I tried (with my amazing mama's help). :\
you pain me so deeply so surely
you pain me like a regret(?)
you pain me like a thorn
you pain me like a lie.
you pain me like the pain of all the time
I've wasted at your side,
you pain me like the pain
of having cried so much over you.
and you pain me...
~listen~
08. Everything I'm Not - The Veronicas
Oh no
Don't go changing
That's what you told me from the start
Thought you where something different
That's when it all just fell apart
Like you're so perfect
And I can't measure up
Well I'm not perfect
Just all messed up
I was losing myself to somebody else
But now I see
I don't wanna pretend
So this is the end of you and me
Cause the girl that you want
She was tearing us apart
Cause she's everything
Everything I'm not
~listen~
09. No Me Queda Mas - Selena
Yo tenía una esperanza
en el fondo de mi alma
Que un día te quedaras tú conmigo
Y aún guardaba una ilusion
que alimentaba al corazón,
mi corazón que hoy tiene que verte como sólo amigo
Y aunque viví enamorada y totalmente equivocada
No me importo,
porque esto sí fue amor
Por mi parte, lo más lindo, el más grande amor
Y aunque siempre lo renuncies, para mí
Fue lo más bello
Fue lo más bello
another very rough translation. This time totally on my own so it sucks. my apologies. :\
I carried a hope
Deep in my soul
that one day you would come back to me.
And still I protected this dream
that nurtured my heart,
my heart that now has to see you as just a friend.
And it didn't matter to me
that I loved in vain
Because for me this was love
the most beautiful, the most amazing love
and even if you always deny it, for me
it was beautiful
it was beautiful
~listen~
10. When The Heartache is Over - Tina Turner
When the heartache is over
I know I won't be missing you (missing you)
Won't look over my shoulder
'Cause I know that I can live without you
Oh live without you
Oh I can live without you
Time to move on with my life now
Leaving the past all behind
I can make my own decisions
It was only a matter of time
Sometimes I look back in anger
Thinking about all the pain
But I know that I'm stronger without you
And that I'll never need you again
~listen~
11. Save Up All Your Tears - Cher
I can't figure you out
But a heart must be the one thing you were born without
I've been wastin' my time
I don't know where I'll sleep tonight
You say that you can do without me
Go ahead now try and live without me
Baby save up all your tears
You might need them someday
When the tears start to fall
I won't wipe them away
When you cry in the night
For the love that you need
Baby, save up your tears
'Cause you'll be cryin' over me
~listen~
12. A Little Bit Stronger - Leighton Meester
I'm done hoping that we can work it out
I’m done with how it feels
Spinning my wheels
And letting you drag my heart around
And I’m done thinking you could ever change
I know my heart will never be the same
But I’m telling myself I’ll be okay
Even on my weakest days
I get a little bit stronger
I get a little bit stronger
It doesn’t happen overnight
Then you turn around and months gone by
And you realize you haven’t cried
I’m not giving you an hour, or a second, or another minute longer
I’m busy getting stronger
~listen~
