Shut Up (Move On) lyrics - Connie Talbot

You always verbalize
The doubts I wanna hide
My dreams get criticized
But you're just a voice in my mind

But you're not getting in my way

So shut up move on, stop saying what you want for me
I'll live my life at 100,000 feet
I'm tired of all your words, my actions speak louder to me
Don't make a sound

Just shut up, shut up

The noise gets me tongue tied
Coz I don't believe in your lies
No space to compromise
Gonna see the world through my own eyes

And nothing's getting in my way

So, shut up move on, stop saying what you want for me
I'll live my life at 100,000 feet
I'm tired of all your words, my actions speak louder to me
Don't make a sound

Just shut up, shut up,
Just shut up, shut up

You say I'm not a kite I'll fly
You say I'm not a star I'll shine
You think I'm wrong, I know I'm right
(I'm my own mind)

Shut up

I'm tired of all your words, my actions speak louder to me
Don't make a sound

So shut up, lets get on, start dreaming up my dreams with me
Let's take a leap of faith from 100,000 feet
I'm done with all these words, coz actions speak louder to me
Don't make a sound

Just shut up, shut up, just shut up, shut up
(I'm my own mind)

You say I'm not a kite I'll fly
You say I'm not a star I'll shine
You think I'm wrong, I know I'm right
I'm my own mind

Roar lyrics - Connie Talbot

I used to bite my tongue and hold my breath
Scared to rock the boat and make a mess
So I sit quietly, agree politely
I guess that I forgot I had a choice
I let you push me past the breaking point
I stood for nothing, so I fell for everything

You held me down, but I got up
Already brushing off the dust
You hear my voice, you hear that sound
Like thunder gonna shake the ground
You held me down, but I got up
Get ready 'cause I've had enough
I see it all, I see it now

I got the eye of the tiger, a fighter, dancing through the fire
'Cause I am a champion and you're gonna hear me roar
Louder, louder than a lion
'Cause I am a champion and you're gonna hear me roar
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
You're gonna hear me roar

Now I'm floating like a butterfly
Stinging like a bee I earned my stripes
I went from zero, to my own hero
You held me down, but I got up
Already brushing off the dust
You hear my voice, you hear that sound
Like thunder gonna shake the ground
You held me down, but I got up
Get ready 'cause I've had enough
I see it all, I see it now

I got the eye of the tiger, a fighter, dancing through the fire
'Cause I am a champion and you're gonna hear me roar
Louder, louder than a lion
'Cause I am a champion and you're gonna hear me roar
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
You're gonna hear me roar
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
You're gonna hear me roar
Oh oh oh...

Ro-oar, ro-oar, ro-oar, ro-oar, ro-oar

I got the eye of the tiger, a fighter, dancing through the fire
'Cause I am a champion and you're gonna hear me roar
Louder, louder than a lion
'Cause I am a champion and you're gonna hear me roar
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
You're gonna hear me roar
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
You're gonna hear me roar

I'm Over You lyrics - Connie Talbot

I saw the messages to her
They say you don't need me anymore
Can't say that it didn't hurt
So now, I'm finding someone new
Who's gonna treat me better than you
I'm so happy, that we're finally through

I don't need to hear you say one more lie
I don't need to hear you say your goodbyes, for one last time
I don't need your empty promises, or your stupid alibis
Cause after all, I'm nobody's fool
Even though you take me for one, I'm over you

So now you say, you want me back for good
But you won't get no second look
It's funny how you thought you could
Nowadays, you don't even cross my mind
Darling, you wish you could rewind
To all those days, we were fine

I don't need to hear you say, one more lie
I don't need to hear you say your goodbyes for one last time
I don't need your empty promises, or your stupid alibis
Cause after all, I'm nobody's fool, even though you take me for one
I'm over you

My Daddy warned me I was playing with fire
I can't believe I even trusted you, you liar

I don't need to hear you say, one more lie
I don't need to hear you say your goodbyes for one last time
I don't need your empty promises, or your stupid alibis
Cause after all, I'm nobody's fool, even though you take me for one
I'm over you

Dream Out Loud lyrics - Connie Talbot

I feel afraid, can't see ahead,
But on this road, I chose to tread
Follow my heart, go my own way,
A brand new start, a different day
Stand on the edge, I won't look down
And hope my wings will lift me off the ground

Dream out loud, let it show
Got my halo, so I'll let it glow
Dream out loud, colours bold,
Watch it unfold, push ahead and go
Dream out loud
(I got my halo, so I'm gonna let it glow)
Dream out loud
(I got my halo, so I'm gonna let it glow)

When skies are dark,
Can't see the blue,
I'll let my light carry me through
They tell me no, but I believe
If I let go, I'll be cheating on me

I close my eyes, and take a dive
'Cause I know that I will survive

Dream out loud, let it show
Got my halo, so I'll let it glow
Dream out loud, colours bold,
Watch it unfold, push ahead and go
Dream out loud
(I got my halo, so I'm gonna let it glow)
Dream out loud
(I got my halo, so I'm gonna let it glow)

I've made up my mind
One step at a time
It may take long but that's alright
It's start with today, yesterday's gone
Here is where I belong
Dream out loud, dream out loud
dreaming
Dream out loud, just keep on
dreaming
Dream out loud, dream out loud
dreaming
Dream out loud, just keep on
dreaming
Dream out loud, just keep on

Dream out loud, let it show
Got my halo, so I'll let it glow
Dream out loud, colours bold,
Watch it unfold, push ahead and go
Dream out loud
(I got my halo, so I'm gonna let it glow)
Dream out loud
(I got my halo, so I'm gonna let it glow)

Those Days lyrics - Connie Talbot

When the birds sing a little louder
And the melody has finally found you
When the silk in your hair is softer
And the strum in my guitar is clearer

Those days are the best
No more messing around gotta
Keep my head high
No letting stress ge the best of you

No waiting for the day coz theres
No more time to save
I’m not playing the waiting game
I’ve got all my cards to play

Hey hey ay

When the sun glows
A brighter yellow
And the summer breeze
Catches the meadow
Where the sand meets the tide
Just remember that the grass
Isn’t greener on the other side

No waiting for the day ‘cause
There’s no more time to save
No more playing the waiting game
I’ve got all my cards to play

Hey hey ay

When the day seems to last forever

When I Fall In Love lyrics - Connie Talbot

When I fall in love it will be forever
Or I'll never fall in love
In a restless world like this is
Love is ended before it's begun
And too many moonlight kisses
Seem to cool in the warmth of the sun

When I give my heart it will be completely
Or I'll never give my heart
And the moment I can feel that you feel that way too
Is when I fall in love with you.

And the moment I can feel that you feel that way too
Is when I'll fall in love with you

Teenage Chemistry lyrics - Connie Talbot

I know I don’t know which pathway to take,
So leave me be, I’ll make my own mistakes.
I know that you are much wiser than I,
But who are you to judge if you don’t have a perfect life.
Let me keep falling then I’ll come back to you

I’m just your average girl caught in an alien world,
Unsure of what will be
But I don’t want no VIP.
I wake up in the afternoon,
I eat load of rubbish food,
I get bored,
I get annoyed,
Is it me or is it teenage chemistry?

I think you sometimes think I’m stuck in reverse
But trust me I’m moving I’m walking round the universe
Meet the people that I meet,
See the places that I see,
I’ll make it up I’ll change it up,
This will be the making of me
I’ll cherish this moment coz
I don’t know what to do.

I’m just your average girl caught in an alien world,
Unsure of what will be
But I don’t want no VIP.
I wake up in the afternoon,
I eat load of rubbish food,
I get bored,
I get annoyed,
Is it me or is it teenage chemistry?

Let’s live it up let’s turn it up let’s stay in bed
With our teenage chemistry...
I don’t want this easy life to ever end.

I don’t want no VIP.
I wake up in the afternoon,
I eat load of rubbish food,
I get bored,
I get annoyed,
Is it me?

I play music way too loud out and about with the wrong crowd
Takes half a day to get ready
I know what’s best for me
Watch a load of rubbish shows
My floors full of dirty clothes
I feel adored
I feel ignored
Is it me or is it teenage chemistry?

I'll Be There lyrics - Connie Talbot

So no one told you life was gonna be this way
Your job's a joke, you're broke, your love life's D.O.A.
It's like you're always stuck in second gear
When it hasn't been your day, your week, your month, or even your year, but

I'll be there for you
(When the rain starts to pour)
I'll be there for you
(Like I've been there before)
I'll be there for you
('Cause you're there for me too)

You're still in bed at ten and work began at eight
You've burned your breakfast, so far things are going great
Your mother warned you there'd be days like these
But she didn't tell you when the world has brought you down to your knees that

I'll be there for you
(When the rain starts to pour)
I'll be there for you
(Like I've been there before)
I'll be there for you
('Cause you're there for me too)

No one could ever know me
No one could ever see me
Seems you're the only one who knows what it's like to be me
Someone to face the day with, make it through all the rest with
Someone I'll always laugh with
Even at my worst, I'm best with you, yeah!

It's like you're always stuck in second gear
When it hasn't been your day, your week, your month, or even your year

I'll be there for you
(When the rain starts to pour)
I'll be there for you
(Like I've been there before)
I'll be there for you
('Cause you're there for me too)

I'll be there for you
(When the rain starts to pour)
I'll be there for you
(Like I've been there before)
I'll be there for you

('Cause you're there for me too)

Vincent lyrics - Connie Talbot

Starry, starry night
Paint your palette blue and gray
Look out on a summer's day
With eyes that know the darkness in my soul

Shadows on the hills
Sketch the trees and daffodils
Catch the breeze and winter chills
In colors on the snowy linen land

Now I understand
What you tried to say to me
And how you suffered for your sanity
How you tried to set them free

They would not listen, they did not know how
Perhaps they'll listen now

Starry, starry night
Flaming flowers that brightly blaze
Swirling clouds in violet haze
Reflect in Vincent's eyes of china blue

Colors changing hue
Morning fields of amber grain
Weathered faces lined in pain
Are soothed beneath the artist's loving hand

Now I understand
What you tried to say to me
And how you suffered for your sanity
How you tried to set them free

They would not listen, they did not know how
Perhaps they'll listen now

For they could not love you
But still your love was true
And when no hope was left in sight
On that starry, starry night

You took your life, as lovers often do
But I could've told you Vincent
This world was never meant for
One as beautiful as you

Starry, starry night
Portraits hung in empty halls
Frame-less heads on nameless walls
With eyes that watch the world and can't forget

Like the strangers that you've met
The ragged men in ragged clothes
The silver thorn of bloody rose
Lie crushed and broken on the virgin snow

Now I think I know
What you tried to say to me
And how you suffered for your sanity
How you tried to set them free

They would not listen, they're not listening still
Perhaps they never will

Matters To Me lyrics - Connie Talbot

It matters to me that you're in my side,
It matters to me that you're in my life,
It matters to me

How can't you see what
You mean to me,
You're all that I wanted and hoped to be
You matter to me

And don't carry that grey cloud
on your shoulders,
I'm waiting for you to see...

You matter to me and
I want you to know,
You're beautiful,
And I won't let go,
You're stronger each day
And you matter to me

You matter to me,
Don't let all those words
Make you believe that you have no worth
Just remember that you always matter.

When you always feel like
you're by yourself,
And wanna reach out for someone else,
Just know that you matter,
If you're living too fast,
And can't take it slow,
Missing the moments that matter the most
Then make them matter!

And don't carry that grey cloud
on your shoulders,
I'm waiting for you to see...

You matter to me and
I want you to know,
You're beautiful,
And I won't let go,
You're stronger each day
And you matter to me

And I'll carry your weight upon my shoulders,
To help you finally see

You matter to me and
I want you to know,
You're beautiful,
And I won't let go,
You're stronger each day
And you matter to me

Because it matters to me.

This Is Home lyrics - Connie Talbot

Move, move, moving on
Grow, grow, growing up
It's time to face the truth
Don't think of it as a door that's shut

I just need to say before
you go away

This is home
It's made of us
Not of bricks but love and trust
Times has come and change we must
We're the heart we're not the dust

We don't let go, go, go

Try, try, trying hard
To make sense of where you are
You're only three miles down the road
But you're world away my Mollie Rose

I just need to say before
you go away

This is home
It's made of us
Not of bricks but love and trust
Times has come and change we must
We're the heart we're not the dust
You're in our blood you'll never fade
Though I'll miss you let's celebrate
The times we shared we'll still remain
You've got a whole new life to create

But don't let go, go, go, go
You have to go, go, go
We won't let go, go, go

You're in our blood you'll never fade
Though I'll miss you let's celebrate

This is home
It's made of us
Not of bricks but love and trust
Times has come and change we must
We're the heart we're not the dust
You're in our blood you'll never fade
Though I'll miss you let's celebrate
The times we shared they'll still remain
You've got a whole new life to create

You have to go, go, go
We won't let go, go, go

P.S. lyrics - Connie Talbot

They both had a dream at 14
That the love would always be
It would always be
Red roses, the sort he used to give to her
Remind them of their teenage years, oh their teenage years

She needs you and she can't believe it's true
After all those times she shared
How could you forget?
She loves you
Don't let all those memories fade
Don't break your old love chain, chain

They said good night and he kissed her on the cheek
and said things she'd only heard in dreams, oh she'd heard in dreams
It's hard to think that they're going up to 60
Things are hard that they never have been, oh they've ever been

He needs you and he can't believe it's true
After all those times he's had
How could you forget?
He loves you
Don't let all those memories fade
Don't break your old love chain, chain

He loves you,
Don't let all those memories fade
Don't break your old love chain, chain

P.S.
Take care, I will miss you
I wish the best for both of you
Sending lots of love, love

EP: "Gravity" (2014)

Gravity lyrics - Connie Talbot

Summer breeze
Coco Keys
Hanging out you and me
In the sun oh oh
Ben and Jerry's
Cups and cones
Wasting time
Playing games on our phones
Oh well
We seem so picture perfect
We laugh without a purpose
We laugh without a purpose

But deep beneath the surface
You're making me nervous
You're making me so nervous

You're holding me down
With your gravity
With your gravity
I need to fly free, but you imprison me,
With your gravity oh...
It's killing me, I gotta leave,
I'm moving on and on and on
And now I see what's best for me,
Escape your gravity

Back at home
Kensal Row
You light up on my phone, oh oh I don't know
Should I pick it up or ignore, hold you close
Build a wall or chase you right out the door

But deep beneath the surface
You're making me nervous
You're making me so nervous

You're holding me down with your gravity
With your gravity
I need to fly free, but you imprison me,
With your gravity oh...
It's killing me, I gotta leave,
I'm moving on and on and on
And now I see what's best for me,
Escape your gravity
Oh oh oh oh [x3]
Escape your gravity
Oh oh oh oh [x3]

Oh

You hold me down with your gravity
Your gravity
I need to fly free, from your gravity
It's killing me, oh

You're holding me down with your gravity
With your gravity
I need to fly free, but you imprison me,
With your gravity oh...
It's killing me, I gotta leave,
I'm moving on and on and on
Now I see what's best for me,
Escape your gravity
Oh oh oh oh [x3]
Escape your gravity
Oh oh oh oh [x3]

Oh

Your gravity

Inner Beauty lyrics - Connie Talbot

The morning starts like any other
I find myself in front of the mirror
Picking out my imperfections
Scared the world might see the flaws I see

But should it really matter?
Why does it mean so much to me?
I wish I could believe in inner beauty

I don't wanna be looked at
If you can't see past all of my pretty lies
There's more to this picture if you look deeper
You will find me behind these eyes
I'm right here
Behind these eyes

So greens the colour for the season
But will it change the way I'm feeling
Tell me Mr Maharishi
What size is happy?
And the stars are getting smaller
Disappearing as they fall from grace
I keep reading how they stop to
Get their column space

I don't wanna be looked at
If you can't see past all of my pretty lies
There's more to this picture if you look deeper
You will find me behind these eyes
I'm right here
Behind these eyes
I'm right here behind these eyes
I'm right here behind these eyes

I'm wondering how far I'll go
To fix myself and I don't know
What will it cost to put me right?
When I'm not wrong on the inside...

I don't wanna be looked at
If you can't see past all of my pretty lies
There's more to this picture if you look deeper
You will find me behind these eyes

I don't wanna be looked at
If you can't see past all of my pretty lies
There's more to this picture if you look deeper
You will find me behind these eyes
I'm right here,
Behind these eyes
I'm right here
Behind these eyes
I'm right here
Behind these eyes...

Mr. Blue Sky lyrics - Connie Talbot

(originally by ELO)

Sun is shinin' in the sky,
There ain't a cloud in sight
It's stopped rainin'
Everybody's in a play
And don't you know
It's a beautiful new day

Runnin' down the avenue
See how the sun shines brightly
In the city on the streets
Where once was pity
Mr. Blue Sky is living here today

[Chorus x2:]
Mr. Blue Sky, please tell us why
You had to hide away
For so long where did we go wrong

Hey you with the pretty face
Welcome to the human race
A celebration Mr. Blue Sky's
Up there waitin' and today
Is the day we've waited for

[Chorus x2]

Mr. Blue Sky [x3]

Mr. Blue you did it right
But soon comes Mr. Night
Creepin' over, now his
Hand is on your shoulder
Never mind I'll remember you this way

[Chorus]

Hey there Mr. Blue
We're so pleased to be with you
Look around see what you do
Everybody smiles at you

Hey there Mr. Blue
We're so pleased to be with you
Look around see what you do
Everybody smiles at you

Hey there Mr. Blue
We're so pleased to be with you
Look around see what you do
Mr. Blue Sky

Let It Go lyrics - Connie Talbot

(originally by Idina Menzel)

The snow glows white on the mountain tonight
Not a footprint to be seen
A kingdom of isolation,
And it looks like I'm the queen.

The wind is howling like this swirling storm inside
Couldn't keep it in, heaven knows I tried!

Don't let them in, don't let them see
Be the good girl you always have to be
Conceal, don't feel, don't let them know
Well, now they know!

Let it go, let it go
Can't hold it back anymore
Let it go, let it go
Turn away and slam the door!

I don't care
What they're going to say
Let the storm rage on,
The cold never bothered me anyway!

It's funny how some distance
Makes everything seem small
And the fears that once controlled me
Can't get to me at all!

It's time to see what I can do
To test the limits and break through
No right, no wrong, no rules for me I'm free!

Let it go, let it go
I am one with the wind and sky
Let it go, let it go
You'll never see me cry!

Here I stand
And here I'll stay
Let the storm rage on!

My power flurries through the air into the ground
My soul is spiraling in frozen fractals all around
And one thought crystallizes like an icy blast
I'm never going back,
The past is in the past!

Let it go, let it go
And I'll rise like the break of dawn
Let it go, let it go
That perfect girl is gone!

Here I stand
In the light of day
Let the storm rage on,
The cold never bothered me anyway!

"Beautiful World" (2012)

Count On Me lyrics - Connie Talbot

(originally by Bruno Mars)

If you ever find yourself stuck in the middle of the sea
I'll sail the world to find you
If you ever find yourself lost in the dark and you can't see
I'll be the light to guide you
Oh-oh ohhh
Find out what we're made of
When we are called to help our friends in need
You can count on me like 1 2 3
I'll be there
And I know when I need it I can count on you like 4 3 2
And you'll be there
Cause that's what friends are supposed to do, oh yeah
Wooooh, Wooooh
Yeah yeah
If you're tossing and you're turning and you just can't fall asleep
I'll sing a song beside you
And if you ever forget how much you really mean to me
Everyday I will remind you
Ohhh...
Find out what we're made of
When we are called to help our friends in need
You can count on me like 1 2 3
I'll be there
And I know when I need it I can count on you like 4 3 2
And you'll be there
Cause that's what friends are supposed to do, oh yeah
Wooooh, Wooooh
Yeah Yeah
You'll always have my shoulder when you cry-y
I'll never let go
Never say goodbye...
...You know you can count on me like 1 2 3
I'll be there
And I know when I need it I can count on you like 4 3 2
And you'll be there
Cause that's what friends are supposed to do, oh yeah
You can count on me like 1 2 3
I'll be there
And I know when I need it I can count on you like 4 3 2
You'll be there
Cause that's what friends are supposed to do, oh yeah
Wooooh, Wooooh
You can count on me cause I can count on you

Let It Be lyrics - Connie Talbot

(originally by The Beatles)

When I find myself in times of trouble, Mother Mary comes to me
Speaking words of wisdom, let it be
And in my hour of darkness she is standing right in front of me
Speaking words of wisdom, let it be

Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be
Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

And when the broken hearted people living in the world agree
There will be an answer, let it be
For though they may be parted, there is still a chance that they will see
There will be an answer, let it be

Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be
There will be an answer, let it be
Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be
Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be
Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

And when the night is cloudy there is still a light that shines on me
Shine until tomorrow, let it be
I wake up to the sound of music, Mother Mary comes to me
Speaking words of wisdom, let it be

Let it be, let it be, let it be, yeah, let it be
There will be an answer, let it be
Let it be, let it be, let it be, yeah, let it be
Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

Let it be

The Climb lyrics - Connie Talbot

(originally by Miley Cyrus)

I can almost see it
That dream I'm dreaming
But there's a voice inside my head saying
"You'll never reach it"

Every step I'm taking
Every move I make feels
Lost with no direction
My faith is shaking

But I gotta keep trying
Gotta keep my head held high

There's always gonna be another mountain
I'm always gonna wanna make it move
Always gonna be a uphill battle
Sometimes I'm gonna have to lose

Ain't about how fast I get there
Ain't about what's waiting on the other side
It's the climb

The struggles I'm facing
The chances I'm taking
Sometimes might knock me down
But no, I'm not racing

I may not know it
But these are the moments that
I'm gonna remember most, yeah
Just gotta keep going

And I, I got to be strong
Just keep pushing on

'Cause there's always gonna be another mountain
I'm always gonna wanna make it move
Always gonna be a uphill battle
Sometimes I'm gonna have to lose

Ain't about how fast I get there
Ain't about what's waiting on the other side
It's the climb, yeah!

It's the climb
It's the climb

There's always gonna be another mountain
I'm always gonna wanna make it move
Always gonna be an uphill battle
Somebody's gonna have to lose

Ain't about how fast I get there
Ain't about what's waiting on the other side
It's the climb, yeah!
It's the climb
It's the climb
It's the climb

What The World Needs Now lyrics - Connie Talbot

(originally by Jackie DeShannon)

What the world needs now is love, sweet love
It's the only thing that there's just too little of
What the world needs now is love, sweet love
No, not just for some but for everyone

Lord we don't need another mountain
There are mountains and hillsides enough to climb
There are oceans and rivers enough to cross
Enough to last until the end of time

What the world needs now is love, sweet love
It's the only thing that there's just too little of
What the world needs now is love, sweet love
No, not just for some but for everyone

Lord, we don't need another meadow
There are corn fields and wheat fields enough to grow
There are sunbeams and moonbeams enough to shine
Oh, listen Lord, if you want to know

What the world needs now is love, sweet love
It's the only thing that there's just too little of
What the world needs now is love, sweet love
No, not just for some but for everyone

What the world needs now is love, sweet love
It's the only thing that there's just too little of
What the world needs now is love, sweet love
No, not just for some [?] just for everyone

What the world needs now is love, sweet love...

Fireflies lyrics - Connie Talbot

(originally by Owl City)

You would not believe your eyes
If ten million fireflies
Lit up the world as I fell asleep

'Cause they'd fill the open air
And leave teardrops everywhere
You'd think me rude
But I would just stand and stare

'Cause I'd get a thousand hugs
From ten thousand lightning bugs
As they tried to teach me how to dance

A foxtrot above my head
A sock hop beneath my bed
A disco ball is just hanging by a thread

I'd like to make myself believe
That planet Earth turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay
Awake when I'm asleep
'Cause everything is never as it seems
When I fall asleep

Leave my door open just a crack
(Please take me away from here)
'Cause I feel like such an insomniac
(Please take me away from here)
Why do I tire of counting sheep
(Please take me away from here)
When I'm far too tired to fall asleep

To ten million fireflies
I'm weird 'cause I hate goodbyes
I got misty eyes as they said farewell

But I'll know where several are
If my dreams get real bizarre
'Cause I saved a few and I keep them in a jar

I'd like to make myself believe
That planet Earth turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay
Awake when I'm asleep
'Cause everything is never as it seems
When I fall asleep

I'd like to make myself believe
That planet Earth turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay
Awake when I'm asleep
'Cause everything is never as it seems
When I fall asleep

I'd like to make myself believe
That planet Earth turns slowly

Beautiful World lyrics - Connie Talbot

I wish I knew why the clouds above are so beautiful
And I wish that I knew why they create pictures for me and you
It's a miracle for us to share
White and grey patterns up in the air
I could daydream and look at the sky forever

Can't you see that it's a beautiful world
Come with me, I'll show you
Open your eyes and see the beauty around
Take my hand, and I'll lead you
It's so wonderful, so magical

Just the other day
I saw an angel and a polar bear playing games in the sky
I saw a king sat in a great big chair
If you look at the clouds everyway
Then they tell us a story each day
And they don't make a sound but they'll share together

Can't you see that it's a beautiful world
Come with me, I'll show you
Open your eyes and see the beauty around
Take my hand, and I'll lead you
It's so wonderful, so magical
It's so wonderful, so magical

Beautiful...
Beautiful...
Beautiful world...

Can't you see that it's a beautiful world
Come with me, I'll show you
Open your eyes and see the beauty around
Take my hand, and I'll lead you
It's so wonderful, so magical
It's so wonderful, so magical

It's a beautiful world...

Amazing Grace lyrics - Connie Talbot

Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me
I once was lost but now I'm found
Was blind, but now I see

'Twas grace that taught my heart to fear
And grace my fears relieved
How precious did that grace appear
The hour I first believed

When we've been here ten thousand years
Bright shining as the sun
We've no less days to sing God's praise
Than when we've first begun

Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me
I once was lost but now I'm found
Was blind, but now I see

Pray lyrics - Connie Talbot

(originally by Justin Bieber)

(And I pray)
I just can't sleep tonight
Knowing that things ain't right
It's in the papers, it's on the TV, it's everywhere that I go
Children are crying
Soldiers are dying
Some people don't have a home
But I know there's sunshine beyond that rain
I know there's good times behind that pain
Hey, can you tell me how I can make a change?
I close my eyes and I can see a better day
I close my eyes and pray
I close my eyes and I can see a better day
I close my eyes and pray
I lose my appetite, knowing kids starve tonight
Am I a sinner cause half my dinner is still there on my plate?
Oh, I got a vision to make a difference
And it's starting today
Cause I know there's sunshine beyond that rain
I know there's good times behind that pain
Heaven, tell me I can make a change?
I close my eyes and I can see a better day
I close my eyes and pray
I close my eyes and I can see a better day
I close my eyes and I pray for the broken-hearted
I pray for the life not started
I pray for all the lungs not breathing
I pray for all the souls that need a break
Can you give 'em one today?
I just can't sleep tonight
Can someone tell me how to make a change?
I close my eyes and I can see a better day
I close my eyes and pray
I close my eyes and I can see a better day
I close my eyes and I pray
I pray
I pray
I close my eyes and pray

Gift Of A Friend lyrics - Connie Talbot

(originally by Demi Lovato)

Sometimes you think you'll be fine by yourself
Cause a dream is a wish that you make all alone
It's easy to feel like you don't need help
But it's harder to walk on your own
You'll change inside
When you realize

The world comes to life
And everything's bright
From beginning to end
When you have a friend
By your side
That helps you to find
The beauty you are
When you open your heart
And believe in
The gift of a friend
The gift of a friend

Someone who knows when you're lost and you're scared
There through the highs and the lows
Someone to count on, someone who cares
Beside you wherever you go
You'll change inside
When you realize

The world comes to life
And everything's bright
From beginning to end
When you have a friend
By your side
That helps you to find
The beauty you are
When you open your heart
And believe in
The gift of a friend

And when your hope crashes down
Shattering to the ground
You, you feel all alone
When you don't know which way to go
And there's no signs leading you home
You're not alone

The world comes to life
And everything's bright
From beginning to end
When you have a friend
By your side
That helps you to find
The beauty you are
When you open your heart
And believe in
When you believe in
When you believe in
The gift of a friend

Imagine lyrics - Connie Talbot

(originally by John Lennon)

Imagine there's no heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today...

Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace...
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one

Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world...

You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will live as one

Colours Of The Wind lyrics - Connie Talbot

(originally by Judy Kuhn)

You think you own whatever land you land on
The earth is just a dead thing you can claim
But I know every rock and tree and creature
Has a life, has a spirit, has a name

You think the only people who are people
Are the people who look and think like you
But if you walk the footsteps of a stranger
You'll learn things you never knew you never knew

Have you ever heard the wolf cry to the blue corn moon
Or ask the grinning bobcat why he grins
Can you sing with all the voices of the mountain
Can you paint with all the colors of the wind
Can you paint with all the colors of the wind

Come run the hidden pine trails of the forest
Come taste the sun-sweet berries of the earth
Come roll in all the riches all around you
And for once never wonder what they're worth

The rainstorm and the river are my brothers
The heron and the otter are my friends
And we are all connected to each other
In a circle in a hoop that never ends

Have you ever heard the wolf cry to the blue corn moon
Or ask the grinning bobcat why he grins
Can you sing with all the voices of the mountain
Can you paint with all the colors of the wind
Can you paint with all the colors of the wind

How high does the sycamore grow
If you cut it down then you'll never know

And you'll never hear the wolf cry to the blue corn moon
For whether we are white or copper skinned
We need to sing with all the voices of the mountain
We need to paint with all the colors of the wind

You can own the earth and still
All you own is earth until
You can paint with all the colors of the wind

Heal The World lyrics - Connie Talbot

(originally by Michael Jackson)

There's a place in your heart
And I know that it is love
And this place could be much brighter than tomorrow
And if you really try
You'll find there's no need to cry
In this place you'll feel there's no hurt or sorrow

There are ways to get there
If you care enough for the living
Make a little space
Make a better place...

Heal the world
Make it a better place
For you and for me and the entire human race
There are people dying
If you care enough for the living
Make a better place for you and for me

If you want to know why
There's a love that cannot lie
Love is strong it only cares for joyful giving
If we try we shall see
In this bliss we cannot feel fear or dread
We stop existing and start living

Then it feels that always
Love's enough for us growing
Make a better world
Make a better world...

Heal the world
Make it a better place
For you and for me and the entire human race
There are people dying
If you care enough for the living
Make a better place for you and for me

And the dream we were conceived in will reveal a joyful face
And the world we once believed in will shine again in grace
Then why do we keep strangling life
Wound this earth crucify its soul
Though it's plain to see
This world is heavenly
Be god's glow

Heal the world
Make it a better place
For you and for me and the entire human race
There are people dying
If you care enough for the living
Make a better place for you and for me

Heal the world
Make it a better place
For you and for me and the entire human race
There are people dying
If you care enough for the living
Make a better place for you and for me
There are people dying
If you care enough for the living
Make a better place for you and for me

You and for me
Make a better place
[repeat]
Heal the world we live in
Save it for our children
[repeat]

Hero lyrics - Connie Talbot

(originally by Mariah Carey)

There's a hero
If you look inside your heart
You don't have to be afraid
Of what you are
There's an answer
If you reach into your soul
And the sorrow that you know
Will melt away

And then a hero comes along
With the strength to carry on
And you cast your fears aside
And you know you can survive
So when you feel like hope is gone
Look inside you and be strong
And you'll finally see the truth
That a hero lies in you

It's a long road
When you face the world alone
No one reaches out a hand
For you to hold
You can find love
If you search within yourself
And the emptiness you felt
Will disappear

And then a hero comes along
With the strength to carry on
And you cast your fears aside
And you know you can survive
So when you feel like hope is gone
Look inside you and be strong
And you'll finally see the truth
That a hero lies in you

The Lord knows
Dreams are hard to follow
But don't let anyone
Tear them away
Hold on
There will be tomorrow
In time
You'll find the way

And then a hero comes along
With the strength to carry on
And you cast your fears aside
And you know you can survive
So when you feel like hope is gone
Look inside you and be strong
And you'll finally see the truth
That a hero lies in you

"Connie Talbot's Christmas Album" (2008)

Let It Snow! lyrics - Connie Talbot

Oh, the weather outside is frightful
But the fire is so delightful
And since we've no place to go
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow

It doesn't show signs of stopping
And I've brought some corn for popping
The lights are turned way down low
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow

When we finally say good night
How I hate going out in the storm
But if you really hold me tight
All the way home I'll be warm

The fire is slowly dying
And my dear we're still goodbying
As long as you love me so
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow

He doesn't care if it's in below
He's sitting by the fire's glossy glow
He don't care about the cold and the winds that blow
He just says let it snow, let it snow, let it snow

The weather outside is frightful
But the fire is so delightful
And since we've no place to go
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow

It doesn't show signs of stopping
And I've brought some corn for popping
The lights are turned way down low
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow

When we finally say good night
Oh, I hate going out in the storm
But if you really hold me tight
All the way home I'll be warm

The fire is slowly dying
And my dear we're still goodbying
As long as you love me so
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow

When A Child Is Born lyrics - Connie Talbot (duet with Ginger Kwan)

A ray of hope flickers in the sky
A tiny star lights up way up high
All across the land dawns a brand new morn
This comes to pass when a child is born

A silent wish sails the seven seas
The winds of change whisper in the trees
And the walls of doubt crumble tossed and torn
This comes to pass when a child is born

A rosy hue settles all around
You start to feel you're on solid ground
For a spell or two no one seems forlorn
This comes to pass when a child is born

It's all a dream, an illusion now
It must come true, sometime soon somehow
All across the land dawns a brand new morn
This comes to pass when a child is born
When a child is born

Frosty The Snowman lyrics - Connie Talbot

Frosty the snowman was a jolly happy soul
With a corncob pipe and a button nose
And two eyes made out of coal
Frosty the snowman is a fairy tale, they say
He was made of snow but the children know
How he came to life one day

There must have been some magic in
That old silk hat they found
For when they placed it on his head
He began to dance around

Oh, Frosty the snowman was alive as he could be
And the children say he could laugh and play
Just the same as you and me

Frosty the snowman knew the sun was hot that day
So he said, "Let's run and we'll have some fun
Now before I melt away"
Down to the village with a broomstick in his hand
Running here and there all around the square
Saying, "Catch me if you can"

He led them down the streets of town
Right to the traffic cop
And he only paused a moment
When he heard him holler, "Stop"

Oh, Frosty the snow man had to hurry on his way
But he waved goodbye saying, "Don't you cry
I'll be back again some day"

Thumpetty, thump, thump
Thumpety, thump, thump, look at Frosty go
Thumpetty, thump, thump
Thumpety, thump, thump over the hills of snow

Merry Christmas Everybody! lyrics - Connie Talbot

Snow is falling, all around me,
Children playing, having fun,
'Tis the season for love and understanding
Merry Christmas everyone.

Time for parties and celebration,
People dancing all night long,
Time for presents and exchanging kisses,
Time for singing christmas songs.

We're gonna have a party tonight
I'm gonna find that girl underneath the misteltoe,
We'll kissed by candlelight

Room is swaying, records playing
All the songs, we love to hear
All I wish that everyday was christmas
What a nice way to spend the year

We're gonna have a party tonight
I'm gonna find that girl
Underneath the mistletoe, we'll kiss by candle light

Snow is falling, all around me
Children playing, having fun

'Tis the season for love and understanding
Merry christmas everyone
Merry christmas everyone

Oah merry christmas everyone

Snow is falling, all around me
Children playing, having fun
It's the season, love and understanding
Merry christmas everyone

Snow is falling, all around me
Children playing, having fun
It's the season, love and understanding
Merry christmas everyone

Snow is falling, all around me
Children playing, having fun
It's the season, love and understanding
Merry christmas everyone
Merry christmas everyone
Merry christmas everyone!

Santa Claus Is Coming To Town lyrics - Connie Talbot

You better watch out, you better not cry
You better not pout, I'm telling you why
Santa Claus is coming to town

He's making a list and he's checking it twice
Gonna find out who's naughty and nice
Santa Claus is coming to town

He sees you when you're sleeping
He knows when you're awake
He knows if you've been bad or good
So be good for goodness sake

So you better watch out, better not cry
Better not pout, I'm telling you why
Santa Claus has come to town
Santa Claus has come to town
Santa Claus is coming to town

With little tin horns and little toy drums
Rooty toot toots and rummy tum tums
Santa Claus is coming to town

He's making a list and he's checking it twice
Gonna find out who's naughty and nice
Santa Claus has come to town
Santa Claus has come to town
Santa Claus is coming to town

He sees you when you're sleeping
He knows when you're awake
He knows if you've been bad or good
So be good for goodness sake

Oh, you better watch out, you better not cry
You better not pout, I'm telling you why
Santa Claus has come to town
Santa Claus has come to town
Santa Claus is coming

Santa Claus has come to town
Santa Claus has come to town
Santa Claus is coming to town

Ave Maria lyrics - Connie Talbot

Ave Maria, gratia plena dominus tecum
Benedicta tu in mulieribus
Et benedictus fructus ventris tui, Jesus

Sancta Maria, Mater Dei
Ora pro nobis peccatoribus
Nunc et in hora mortis nostrae, amen

Winter Wonderland lyrics - Connie Talbot

Sleigh bells ring
Are you listening?
In the lane
Snow is glistening
A beautiful sight
We're happy tonight
Walking
In a winter wonderland

Gone away
Is the bluebird
Here to stay
Is a new bird
He sings a love song
As we go along
Walking
In a winter wonderland

In the meadow
We can build a snowman
And pretend
That he is Parson Brown
He'll say are you married?
We'll say No man
But you can do the job
When you're in town
Later on, we'll conspire
As we dream, by the fire
To face unafraid
The plans that we've made
Walking
In a winter wonderland

In the meadow
We can build a snowman
And pretend
That he's a circus clown
We'll have lots of fun
With Mr. Snowman
Until the other kids
Come knock him down

When it's cold
Ain't it thrilling
When your nose
Gets to chilling
We'll frolic and play
The eskimo way
Walking
In a winter wonderland

Walking
In a winter wonderland

Do You Hear What I Hear? lyrics - Connie Talbot

Said the little lamb
To the shepherd boy
Do you hear what I hear
Ringing through the night
Shepherd boy
Do you hear what I hear
A song, a song
High above the trees
With a voice
As big as the sea
With a voice
As big as the sea

Said the shepherd boy
To the mighty king
Do you know what I know
In your palace warm
Mighty king
Do you know what I know
A child
A child shivers in the cold

Let us bring him
Silver and gold
Let us bring him
Silver and gold

Said the king
To the people everywhere
Listen to what I say
Pray for peace
People everywhere
Listen to what I say
A child, a child
Sleeping in the night
He will bring us
Goodness and light
He will bring us
Goodness and light

Rockin' Around The Christmas Tree lyrics - Connie Talbot

Rocking around the Christmas tree at the Christmas party hop,
Mistletoe hung where you can see every couple tries to stop.

Rocking around the Christmas tree let the Christmas spirit ring,
Later we will have some pumpkin pie and do some caroling.

You will get a sentamentle feeling when you hear voices singing

Lets be jolly deck the halls with bells of holly.

Rocking around the Christmas tree have a happy holiday,
Everyone dancing merely in the new old fastioned way...!

O Little Town Of Bethlehem lyrics - ConnieTalbot

Oh little town of Bethlehem
How still we see thee lie
Above thy deep and dreamless sleep
The silent stars go by

Yet in they dark streets shineth
The everlasting light
The hopes and fears of all the years
Are met in thee tonight

For Christ is born of Mary
And gathered all above
While mortals sleep, the angels keep
Their watch of wondering love

Oh morning stars together
Proclaim the holy birth
And praises sing to God the King
And peace to men on Earth

How silently, how silently
The wondrous gift is given
So God imparts to human hearts
The blessings of His heaven

No ear may hear His coming
But in this world of sin
Where meek souls will receive Him still
The dear Christ enters in

Oh holy child of Bethlehem
Descend to us we pray
Cast out our sin and enter in
Be born in us today

We hear the Christmas angels
The great glad tidings tell
Oh come to us, abide with us
Our Lord Emanuel

Jingle Bell Rock lyrics - Connie Talbot

Bells on bobtails ring making spirits bright
Oh, what fun it is to sing a sleighing song tonight

Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bells swing and jingle bells ring
Snowing and blowing up bushels of fun
Now the jingle hop has begun

Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bells chime in jingle bell time
Dancing and prancing the jingle bell square
In the frosty air

What a bright time, it's the right time
We gonna rock the night away
Jingle bell time is a swell time
To go gliding in a one horse sleigh

Giddy up jingle horse pick up your feet
Jingle around the clock
Mix and a mingle in the jingling feet
That's the jingle bell rock

What a bright time, it's the right time
We gonna rock the night away
Jingle bell time is a swell time
To go gliding in a one horse sleigh

Giddy up jingle horse pick up your feet
Jingle around the clock
Mix and mingle in the jingling feet
That's the jingle bell, that's the jingle bell
That's the jingle bell rock

That's the jingle bell rock everybody
Merry Christmas

I Wish It Could Be Christmas Every Day lyrics - Connie Talbot

When the snowman brings the snow
Well, he just might like to know
He's put a great big smile on somebody's face

If you jump into your bed quickly cover up your head
Don't you lock the doors
You know that sweet Santa Claus is on his way

Well, I wish it could be Christmas everyday
When the kids start singing and the band begins to play
Oh, I wish it could be Christmas everyday
To let the bells ring out for Christmas

When we're skating in the park
If the storm clouds make it dark
Then the rosy cheek's gonna light my merry way

Now the frosty paws appear and they've frozen up my ear
So we'll lie by the fire
Till the sleep simply melts them all away

Well, I wish it could be Christmas everyday
When the kids start singing and the band begins to play
Well, I wish it could be Christmas everyday
So let the bells ring out for Christmas

When the snowman brings the snow
Well, he just might like to know
He's put a great big smile on somebody's face

So if Santa brings that sleigh all along that Milky Way
I'll sign my name on the rooftop in the snow
That he may decide to stay

Well, I wish it could be Christmas everyday
When the kids start singing and the band begins to play
Well, I wish it could be Christmas everyday
So let the bells ring out for Christmas

Well, I wish it could be Christmas everyday
When the kids start singing and the band begins to play
Oh, I wish it could be Christmas everyday
So let the bells ring out for Christmas
Why don't you give your love for Christmas?

When the snowman brings the snow
When the snowman brings the snow
When the snowman brings the snow
When the snowman brings the snow
When the snowman brings the snow
When the snowman brings the snow

Walking In The Air lyrics - Connie Talbot

We're walking in the air
We're floating in the moonlit sky
The people far below are sleeping as we fly

I'm holding very tight
I'm riding in the midnight blue
I'm finding i can fly so high above with you

Far across the world
The villages go by like dreams
The rivers and the hills
The forests and the streams

Children gaze open mouth
Taken by surprize
Nobody down below believes thier eyes

We're surfing in the air
We're swimming in the frozen sky
We're drifting over icy
Mountains floating by

Suddenly swooping low on an ocean deep
Arousing of a mighty monster from its sleep

We're walking in the air
We're floating in the midnight sky
And everyone who sees us greets us as we fly

We're walking in the air
We're walking in the air

Silent Night lyrics - Connie Talbot

Silent night, holy night
All is calm, all is bright
Round yon Virgin Mother and Child
Holy Infant so tender and mild

Sleep in heavenly peace
Sleep in heavenly peace

Silent night, holy night
Shepherds quake at the sight
Glories stream from heaven afar
Heavenly hosts sing Alleluia

Christ, the Savior is born
Christ, the Savior is born

Silent night, holy night
Son of God, love's pure light
Radiant beams from Your holy face
With the dawn of redeeming grace

Jesus, Lord at Your birth
Jesus, Lord at Your birth
Sleep in heavenly peace

White Christmas lyrics - Connie Talbot

I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
Just like the ones I used to know
Where the treetops glisten and children listen
To hear sleigh bells in the snow

I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
With every Christmas card I write
May your days be merry and bright
And may all your Christmases be white

I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
Just like the ones I used to know
Where the treetops glisten and children listen
To hear sleigh bells in the snow

I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
With every Christmas card I write
May your days be merry and bright
And may all your Christmases be white
