they made a statue of us / they made a status of us / the tourists come and stare at us / the sculptor's marble sends regards / they made a statue of us / they made a statue of us / our noses have begun to rust
(ii) whistle for the choir ♪ the fratellis
well it's a big, big city and it's always the same / can never be too pretty, tell me your name / is it out of line if I were simply bold to say 'would you be mine'? / because i may be a beggar and you may be the queen / I know I may be on a downer; I'm still ready to dream / though it's 3 o'clock, the time is just the time it takes for you to talk
(iii) honestly ♪ cartel

(iv) ships in the night ♪ mat kearney
like ships in the night / you keep passing me by / we're just wasting time / trying to prove who's right / and if it all goes crashing into the sea / if it's just you and me / trying to find the light

(vi) fool for love ♪ stefy
I'm feeling kinda strange / 'cause of all the things you say / yeah I know, too good to believe / this probably won't work / 'cause you're kind of a jerk / and for sure you're way too cool for me / yeah I'm a fool for love / 'cause I just can't give you up
(vii) something to talk about ♪ bonnie raitt
people are talkin', talking 'bout people / I hear them whisper, you won't believe it / they think we're lovers kept under covers / I just ignore it, but they keep saying / we laugh just a little too loud / we stand just a little too close / we stare just a little too long / maybe they're seeing something we don't, darlin' / let's give them something to talk about
(viii) i'm gonna be (500 miles) ♪ the proclaimers
when I wake up, well I know I'm gonna be / I'm gonna be the man who wakes up next to you / when I go out, yeah I know I'm gonna be / I'm gonna be the man who goes along with you
(ix) heart skips a beat ♪ lenka
heart skips a beat, my heart skips a beat / my heart is playing tricks on me / and it's building brinks on me / I can't break through / and I can't face you / my world is turning slowly now / but it's burning up somehow / I need some time / to know what's right / 'cause it's only in the quiet that I feel some relief / I'm trying hard not to resist the joy / don't listen to me, I'm being paranoid / I might try hard but it's too hard to avoid
(x) yellow ♪ coldplay
look at the stars / look how they shine for you / and everything you do / yeah, they were all yellow / I came along / I wrote a song for you / and all the things that you do / and it was called 'yellow' / so then I took my time / oh, what a think to've done / and it was all yellow
(xi) golden train ♪ justin nozuka
and then we'll sleep all day / meet in our dreams / and live life our way, drop it all off / and we'll fly away, dip through the stars / and wake up slowly / but tomorrow if a golden train came to take you away / would you go or would you stay?
(xii) love you madly ♪ cake
I don't want to wonder / if this is a blunder / I don't want to worry whether / we're going to stay together / 'til we die / I don't want to jump in / unless this music's thumping / all the dishes rattle in the cupboards / when the elephants arrive / I want to love you madly / I want to love you now
(xiii) my beautiful rescue ♪ this providence
I'm falling more in love / with every single world I withhold / I'm falling more in love / with every single word you say / I'm falling head-over-heels for you / I've been dancing on the tops of buildings / at the top of my lungs I'm singing you a song / don't you leave me alone / my bones were shattered / my pride lays shattered / we'll I'll trample my pride and tell the world / to dance with me
(xiv) way back home ♪ denver harbor
lay it all down / heaven's been found / in your arms / all that I know / is I won't let go / until you do / with nothing left to prove / but everything to lose / and all I know is / all I want is you / all I want is you
(xv) moonlight sonata ♪ ludwig van beethoven
(instrumental) 'the one with the power to vanquish the Dark Lord approaches ... born to those who have thrice defied him, born as the seventh month dies ... and the Dark Lord will mark him as his equal, but he will have power the Dark Lord knows not ... and either must die at the hand of the other for neither can live while the other survives ... the one with the power to vanquish the Dark Lord will be born as the seventh month dies ...'
(xvi) you are the moon ♪ the hush sound
you don't see what you possess, a beauty calm and clear / it floods the sky and blurs the darkness like a chandelier / all the light that you possess is skewed by lakes and seas / the shattered surface, so imperfect, is all that you believe
(xvii) the story ♪ brandi carlile
all of these lines across my face / tell you the story of who I am / so many stories of where I've been / and now I got to where I am / but these stories don't mean anything / when you've got no one to tell them to / it's true, I was made for you / I climbed across the mountaintops / travel across the ocean blue / I cross over lines and I broke all the rules / and baby I broke them all for you
(xviii) my heart with you ♪ the rescues
I sailed a thousand ships in search of you / traveled to distant lands / I dove for sunken gold / I took what I could hold / but you're still the greatest treasure I've held in my hands / my love, the reason I survive / trust we'll be together soon / should our fire turn to dark / take my heart with you / a tattered photograph my pocket holds / I keep you secretly / I studied every line / you're etched upon my mind / for not a million soldiers could take you from me
