All I Want For Christmas Is You lyrics - Jamie Cullum

(originally by Mariah Carey)

I don't want a lot for Christmas

There is just one thing I need

I don't care about the presents

Underneath the Christmas tree

I just want you for my own

More than you could ever know

Make my wish come true

All I want for Christmas is you

(1, 2... 1, 2, 3)

I don't want a lot for Christmas

There is just one thing I need

And I don't care about the presents

Underneath the Christmas tree

I don't need to hang my stocking

There upon the fireplace

Santa Claus won't make me happy

With a toy on Christmas Day

I just want you for my own

More than you could ever know

Make my wish come true

All I want for Christmas is you

I won't ask for much this Christmas

I won't even wish for snow

I'm just gonna keep on waiting

Underneath the mistletoe

I won't make a list and send it

To the North Pole for Saint Nick

And I won't even stay awake to

Hear the magic reindeer click

I just want you here tonight

Holding on to me so tight

What more can I do?

Baby, all I want for Christmas is you

All the lights are shining so brightly everywhere

And the sound of children's laughter fills the air

And everyone is singing

I can hear those sleigh bells ringing

Santa, won't you bring me the one that I need?

Won't you please bring my baby back to me?

I don't want a lot for Christmas

This is all I'm asking for

I just want to see my baby

Standing right outside my door

I just want you for my own

More than you could ever know

Make my wish come true, oh

All I want for Christmas is you, yeah

All I want for Christmas

Is you

All I want for Christmas

Is you

All I want for Christmas...

Thinkin Bout You lyrics - Jamie Cullum

(originally by Frank Ocean)

A tornado flew around my room before you came

Excuse the mess it made, it usually doesn't rain

In Southern California, much like Arizona

My eyes don't shed tears, but, boy, they pour

When I'm thinkin' 'bout you (ooh, no, no)

I been thinkin' 'bout you (ooh, no, no, no)

I been thinkin' 'bout you

Do you think about me still?

Do ya, do ya?

Do you not think so far ahead?

'Cause I've been thinkin' 'bout forever, oooh

Do you not think so far ahead?

'Cause I've been thinkin' 'bout forever, oooh

No, I don't like you, I just thought you were cool

Enough to kick it

Got a beach house I could sell you in Idaho

Since you think I don't love you, I just thought you were cute

That's why I kissed you

Got a fighter jet, I don't get to fly it, though

I'm lyin' down thinkin' 'bout you (ooh, no, no)

I've been thinkin' 'bout you (ooh, no, no, no)

I've been thinkin' 'bout you

Do you think about me still?

Do ya, do ya?

Do you not think so far ahead?

'Cause I've been thinkin' 'bout forever, oooh

Or do you not think so far ahead?

'Cause I been thinkin' 'bout forever, oooh

I remember, how could I forget?

How you feel?

You know you were my first time

A new feel

It won't ever get old, not in my soul

Not in my spirit, keep it alive

We'll go down this road

'Til it turns from color to black and white

Do you not think so far ahead?

'Cause I've been thinkin' 'bout forever, oooh

Do you not think so far ahead?

'Cause I've been thinkin' 'bout forever, oooh

What Do You Mean? lyrics - Jamie Cullum

(originally by Justin Bieber)

What do you mean?

Ohh ohh ohh

When you nod your head yes

But you wanna say no

What do you mean?

Hey yeah

When you don't want me to move

But you tell me to go

What do you mean?

Ohh

What do you mean?

Said we're running out of time

What do you mean?

Ohh ohh ohh

What do you mean?

Better make up your mind

What do you mean?

You're so indecisive of what I'm saying

Tryna catch the beat, make up your heart

Don't know if you're happy or complaining

Don't want for us to end

Where do I start

You wanna go to the left and you want to turn right

Wanna argue all day, make love all night

First you're up then you're down and then between

Ooh I really want to know

What do you mean?

When you nod your head yes

But you wanna say no

What do you mean?

Hey hey

When you don't want me to move

But you tell me to go

What do you mean?

Ohh

What do you mean?

Said we're running out of time

What do you mean?

Ohh ohh

What do you mean?

Better make up your mind

What do you mean?

You're overprotective when I'm leaving

Tryna compromise but I can't win

You wanna make a point but you keep preaching

You had me from the start, won't let this end

She wanna go to the left then you want to turn right

Wanna argue all day, make love all night

First you're up then you're down and then between

Ooh I really wanna know

What do you mean?

Ohh

When you nod your head yes

But you wanna say no

What do you mean?

Hey hey hey

When you don't want me to move

But you tell me to go

What do you mean?

Ohh ohh

What do you mean?

Said we're running out of time

What do you mean?

Hey

Oohhh

Better make up your mind

What do you mean?

Ohh ohh ohh

What do you mean?

Ohh ohh ohh

What do you mean?

Oohh

Said we're running out of time

What do you mean?

Better make up your mind

What do you mean?

Do you mean?

Said we're running out of time

What do you mean?

I Took A Pill In Ibiza lyrics - Jamie Cullum

(originally by Mike Posner)

I took a pill in Ibiza

To show Avicii I was cool

When I finally got sober, felt 10 years older

But fuck it, it was something to do

I'm living out in LA

I drive a sports car just to prove

I'm a real big baller 'cause I made a million dollars

And I spend it on girls and shoes

You don't wanna be high like me

Never really knowing why like me

Don't ever wanna step off that roller coaster and be all alone

You don't wanna ride the bus like this

Never knowing who to trust like this

Don't wanna be stuck up on that stage singing

Stuck up on that stage singing

All I know are sad songs, are sad songs

Darling, all I know are sad songs, are sad songs

I'm just a singer who already blew his shot

I get along with old timers

'Cause my name's a reminder of a pop song people forgot

And I can't keep a girl, no

'Cause as soon as the sun comes up

I cut 'em all loose and work's my excuse

But the truth is I can't open up

You don't wanna be high like me

Never really knowing why like me

Never don't wanna step off that roller coaster and be all alone

You don't wanna ride the bus like this

Never knowing who to trust like this

You don't wanna be stuck up on that stage singing

Stuck up on that stage singing

All I know are sad songs, are sad songs

Darling, all I know are sad songs, are sad songs, are sad songs

I took a plane to my home town

I brought my pride and my guitar

All my friends are all gone but there's manicured lawns

And the people still think I'm a star

I walked around downtown

I met some fans on Lafayette

They said tell us how to make it 'cause we're getting real impatient

So I looked 'em in the eye and said

Don't wanna be high like me

Never really knowing why like me

You don't ever wanna step off that roller coaster and be all alone

Don't wanna ride the bus like this

Never knowing who to trust like this

You don't wanna be stuck up on that stage singing

Stuck up on that stage singing

All I know are sad songs, are sad songs

Darling, all that I know are sad songs, are sad songs, are sad songs

Shape Of You lyrics - Jamie Cullum

(originally by Ed Sheeran)

The club isn't the best place to find a lover

So the bar is where I go

Me and my friends at the table doing shots

Drinking fast and then we talk slow

You come over and start up a conversation with just me

And trust me I'll give it a chance now

Take my hand, stop, put Van The Man on the jukebox

And then we start to dance

I'm singing like

Girl, you know I want your love

Your love was handmade for somebody like me

Come on now, follow my lead

I may be crazy, don't mind me

Say, boy, let's not talk too much

Grab on my waist and put that body on me

Come on now, follow my lead

I'm in love with the shape of you

We push and pull like a magnet do

Although my heart is falling too

I'm in love with your body

And last night you were in my room

And now my bedsheets smell like you

Every day discovering something brand new

I'm in love with your body

Oh I oh I oh I ohh

I'm in love with your body

Oh I oh I oh I ohh

I'm in love

One week in we let the story begin

We're going out on our first date

You and me are thrifty, so go all you can eat

Fill up your bag and I fill up a plate

We talk for hours and hours about the sweet and the sour

And how your family is doing okay

Leave and get in a taxi, then kiss in the backseat

Tell the driver make the radio play

And I'm singing like

Girl, you know I want your love

Your love was handmade for somebody like me

Come on now, follow my lead

I may be crazy, don't mind me

Say, boy, let's not talk too much

Grab on my waist and put your body on me

Come on now, follow my lead

Come, come on now, follow my lead

I'm in love with the shape of you

We push and pull like a magnet do

Although my heart is falling too

I'm in love with your body

Last night you were in my room

Now my bedsheets smell like you

Every day discovering something brand new

I'm in love with your body

Oh I oh I oh I ohh

I'm in love with your body

Oh I oh I oh I ohh

I'm in love with your body

Oh I oh I oh I ohh

I'm in love with your body

Oh I oh I oh I ohh

I'm in love with your body

Come on, be my baby

Come on, be my baby, yeah

Come on, be my baby

Oh I oh I oh I ohh

I'm in love with your body

Oh I oh I oh I ohh

I'm in love with your body

Oh I oh I oh I ohh

I'm in love with your body

Oh I oh I oh I ohh

I'm in love with your body

PILLOWTALK lyrics - Jamie Cullum

(originally by ZAYN)

Climb on board

We'll go slow and high tempo

Light and dark

Hold me hard and mellow

Seeing the pain, seeing the pleasure

'Body but you, 'body but me, 'body but us

Bodies together

Love to hold you close, tonight and always

Love to wake up next to you

Love to hold you close, tonight and always

I'd love to wake up next to you

So we'll piss off the neighbours

In the place that feels the tears

The place you lose your fears

Yeah, reckless behaviour

A place that is so pure, so dirty and raw

Be in the bed all day, bed all day, bed all day

Fucking in, fighting on

It's our paradise and it's our war zone

Pillow talk

My enemy, my ally

Prisoners

Then we're free, it's a thin line

I'm seeing the pain, seeing the pleasure

'Body but you, 'body but me, 'body but us

Bodies together

Love to hold you close, tonight and always

Love to wake up next to you

So we'll piss off the neighbours

In the place that feels the tears

The place you lose your fears

Yeah, reckless behaviour

A place that is so pure, so dirty and raw

Be in the bed all day, bed all day, bed all day

Fucking in, fighting on

It's our paradise and it's our war zone

Paradise, paradise

War zone, war zone

Paradise, paradise

War zone, war zone

So we'll piss off the neighbours

In the place that feels the tears

The place you lose your fears

Yeah, reckless behaviour

A place that is so pure, so dirty and raw

Be in the bed all day, bed all day, bed all day

Fucking in, fighting on

It's our paradise and it's our war zone

Pillow talk

My enemy, my ally

Prisoners

Then we're free, it's a thin line

Uptown Funk lyrics - Jamie Cullum

(originally by Mark Ronson)

This hit

That ice cold

Michelle Pfeiffer

That white gold

This one for them hood girls

Them good girls

Straight masterpieces

Stylin', wiling

Livin' it up in the city

Got Chucks on with Saint Laurent

Gotta kiss myself I'm so pretty

I'm too hot

Call the police and the fireman

I'm too hot

Make a dragon wanna retire, man

I'm too hot

Say my name you know who I am

Too hot

I'm band 'bout that money

Break it down

Girls hit your hallelujah

'Cause uptown funk gon' give it to you

Saturday night and we in the spot

Don't believe me just watch

Stop

Wait a minute

Fill my cup put some liquor in it

Take a sip, sign the check

Julio, get the stretch!

Ride to Harlem, Hollywood, Jackson, Mississippi

If we show up, we gon' show out

Smoother than a fresh jar of Skippy

Too hot damn

Call the police and the fireman

Too hot

Make a dragon wanna retire, man

Too hot

Say my name you know who I am

Too hot

I'm band 'bout that money

Break it down

Girls hit your hallelujah

'Cause uptown funk gon' give it to you

Saturday night and we in the spot

Don't believe me just watch

The Place Where Lost Things Go lyrics - Jamie Cullum

(originally by Emily Blunt)

Do you ever lie

Awake at night?

Just between the dark

And the morning light

Searching for the things

You used to know

Looking for the place

Where the lost things go

Do you ever dream

Or reminisce?

Wondering where to find

What you truly miss

Well maybe all those things

That you love so

Are waiting in the place

Where the lost things go

Memories you've shed

Gone for good you feared

They're all around you still

Though they've disappeared

Nothing's really left

Or lost without a trace

Nothing's gone forever

Only out of place

So maybe now the dish

And my best spoon

Are playing hide and seek

Just behind the moon

Waiting there until

It's time to show

Spring is like that now

Far beneath the snow

Hiding in the place

Where the lost things go

Time to close your eyes

So sleep can come around

For when you dream you find

All that's lost is found

Maybe on the moon

Or maybe somewhere new

Maybe all you're missing lives inside of you

So when you need her touch

And loving gaze

Gone but not forgotten

Is the perfect phrase

Smiling from a star

That she makes glow

Trust she's always there

Watching as you grow

Hiding in the place

Where the lost things go

Can't Feel My Face lyrics - Jamie Cullum

(originally by The Weeknd)

And I know she'll be the death of me

At least we'll both be numb

And she'll always get the best of me

The worst is yet to come

But at least we'll both be beautiful and stay forever young

This I know, this I know

She told me, "don't worry about it"

She told me, "don't worry no more"

We both knew we can't go without it

She told me you'll never be, be alone, oh, oh, woo

I can't feel my face when I'm with you

But I love it, but I love it

So I can't feel my face when I'm with you

But I love it, but I love it

And I know she'll be the death of me

At least we'll both be numb

And she'll always get the best of me

The worst is yet to come

All the misery was necessary when we're deep in love

Yeah I know, yeah I know

She told me, "don't worry about it"

She told me, "don't worry no more"

We both knew we can't go without it

She told me you'll never be, be alone, oh, oh, woo

I can't feel my face when I'm with you

But I love it, but I love it

So I can't feel my face when I'm with you

But I love it, but I love it

I can't feel my face when I'm with you

But I love it, but I love it

So I can't feel my face when I'm with you

But I love it, but I love it

So I can't feel my face when I'm with you

But I love it, but I love it

Ex Factor / Nice For What lyrics - Jamie Cullum

(originally by Lauryn Hill / Drake)

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

'Cause no one loves you more than me

And no one ever will

No matter how I think we grow

You always seem to let me know

It ain't workin' (it ain't workin')

And when I try to walk away

You'd hurt yourself to make me stay

This is crazy (this is crazy)

I keep letting you back in (back in)

How can I explain myself?

As painful as this thing has been

I just can't be with no one else

See I know what we've got to do

You let go, and I'll let go too

Cause no one's hurt me more than you

And no one ever will

No matter how I think we grow

You always seem to let me know

It ain't workin' (it ain't workin')

And when I try to walk away

You'd hurt yourself to make me stay

This is crazy (this is crazy)

Care for me, care for me

I know you care for me

There for me, there for me

Said you'd be there for me

Cry for me, cry for me

You said you'd die for me

Give to me, give to me

Why won't you live for me?

Care for me, care for me

I know you care for me

There for me, there for me

Said you'd be there for me

Cry for me, cry for me

You said you'd die for me

Give to me

Everybody get your mothafuckin' roll on

I know shorty and she doesn't want no slow song

Had a man last year, life goes on

Haven't let that thing loose, girl, in so long

You've been inside, know you like to lay low

I've been peepin' what you bringin' to the table

Workin' hard, girl, everything paid for

First-last, phone bill, car note, cable

With your phone out, gotta hit them angles

With your phone out, snappin' like you Fabo

And you showin' off, but it's alright

It's a short life, yeah

Care for me, care for me

I know you care for me

There for me, there for me

Said you'd be there for me

Cry for me, cry for me

You said you'd die for me

Give to me, give to me

Why won't you live for me?

Yeah that's a real one in your reflection

Without a follow, without a mention

You really pipin' up on me

You gotta be nice for what to me?

I understand

You got a hunnid bands

You got a baby Benz, you got some bad friends

High school pics, you was even bad then

You ain't stressin' off no lover in the past tense

You already had them

Work at 8 A.M., finish 'round five

Hoes talk down, you don't see 'em outside

Yeah, they don't really be the same offline

You know dark days, you know hard times

Doin' overtime for the last month

Saturday, call the girls, get 'em gassed up

Gotta hit the club, gotta make that ass jump

Gotta hit the club like you hit them mothafuckin' angles

With your phone out, snappin' like you Fabo

And you showin' off but it's alright

It's a short life

Where were you when I needed you?

River lyrics - Jamie Cullum

(originally by Joni Mitchell)

It's coming on Christmas

They're cutting down trees

They're putting up reindeer

And singing songs of joy and peace

Oh I wish I had a river I could skate away on

But it don't snow here

It stays pretty green

I'm gonna make a lot of money

And quit this crazy scene

I wish I had a river I could skate away on

I wish I had a river so long

I would teach myself fly

I wish I had a river I could skate away on

I made my baby cry

He tried hard to help me

You know, he put me at ease

And he loved me so naughty

Make me weak at the knees

I wish I had a river I could skate away on

I'm so hard to handle

I'm selfish and I'm sad

Now I've gone and lost the best baby

That I ever had

I wish I had a river I could skate away on

I wish I had a river so long

I would teach myself to fly

I wish I had a river

I could skate away on

I made my baby say goodbye

Brick lyrics - Jamie Cullum

(originally by Ben Folds Five)

Six A.M

Day after Christmas

I throw some clothes on in the dark

The smell of cold

Car seat is freezing

The world is sleeping, I am numb

Up the stairs

To the apartment

She is balled up on the couch

Her mom and dad

Went down to Charlotte

They're not home to find us out

And we drive

Now that I have found someone

I'm feeling more alone

Than I ever have before

She's a brick and I'm drowning slowly

Off the coast and I'm headed nowhere

She's a brick and I'm drowning slowly

They call her name

At 7:30

I paced around the parking lot

Then I walk down

To buy her flowers

And sell some gifts that I've got

Can't you see

It's not me you're dying for

Now she's feeling more alone

Than she ever has before

She's a brick and I'm drowning slowly

Off the coast and I'm headed nowhere

She's a brick and I'm drowning slowly

As weeks went by

It showed that she was not fine

They told me, "son, it's time to tell the truth"

And she broke down

And I broke down

Cause I was tired of lying

Driving back

To her apartment

For the moment we're alone

Yeah she's alone

And I'm alone

And now I know it

She's a brick and I'm drowning slowly

Off the coast and I'm headed nowhere

She's a brick and I'm drowning slowly

Be Our Guest lyrics - Jamie Cullum (feat. Eric Cantona)

Ma chère Mademoiselle, it is with deepest pride and greatest pleasure that we welcome you tonight. And now we invite you to relax, let us pull up a chair as the dining room proudly presents: your dinner!

Be our guest! Be our guest!

Put our service to the test

Tie your napkin 'round your neck, cherie

And we'll provide the rest

Soup du jour

Hot hors d'oeuvres

Why, we only live to serve

Try the grey stuff, it's delicious

Don't believe me? Ask the dishes

They can sing, they can dance

After all, Miss, this is France

And a dinner here is never second best

Go on, unfold your menu

Take a glance and then you'll

Be our guest

Oui, our guest

Be our guest!

Beef ragout

Cheese soufflé

Pie and pudding, en flambé

We'll prepare and serve with flair

A culinary cabaret!

You're alone

And you're scared

But the banquet's all prepared

No one's gloomy or complaining

While the flatware's entertaining

We tell jokes! I do tricks

With my fellow candlesticks

And it's all in perfect taste

That you can bet

Come on and lift your glass

You've won your own free pass

To be our guest

If you're stressed

It's fine dining we suggest

Be our guest! Be our guest! Be our guest!

Get your worries off your chest

Let us say for your entree

We've an array; may we suggest:

Try the bread! Try the soup!

When the croutons loop de loop

It's a treat for any dinner

Don't belive me? Ask the china

Singing pork! Dancing veal!

What an entertaining meal!

How could anyone be gloomy and depressed?

We'll make you shout "encore!"

And send us out for more

So, be our guest!

Be our guest!

Life is so unnerving

For a servant who's not serving

He's not whole without a soul to wait upon

Ah, those good old days when we were useful...

Suddenly those good old days are gone

Ten years we've been rusting

Needing so much more than dusting

Needing exercise, a chance to use our skills!

Most days we just lay around the castle

Flabby, fat and lazy

You walked in and oops-a-daisy!

Be our guest! Be our guest!

Our command is your request

It's been years since we've had anybody here

And we're obsessed

With your meal, with your ease

Yes, indeed, we aim to please

While the candlelight's still glowing

Let us help you, we'll keep going

Course by course, one by one

'Til you shout, "Enough! I'm done!"

Then we'll sing you off to sleep as you digest

Tonight you'll prop your feet up

But for now, let's eat up

Be our guest!

Please, be our guest!

Jamie Cullum lyrics - Jamie Cullum

Bring out all the old decorations

Some of them, they're older than us

To my new neighbours, I say salutation

Come shelter in here from the dust

Take your cellphone off of the table

And look your father straight in the eye

Could this stranger become an angel?

Could the winter brighter your sky?

Somebody, hold out their hand

Well, somebody, count off the band

Come on, let's light up the town

And, Christmas, don't let me down

Well, the bars are stuffed to the rafters

And all the children lie awake in their beds

But can ya fill up the houses with laughter?

Shall we dance and honour our dead?

Somebody, hold out their hand

Well, somebody, count off the band

Come on, let's light up the town

And, Christmas, don't let me down

Well, another Christmas Eve is upon us

Can we go gentle into that cold, cold night

Well, I know you can't grant all my wishes

Yet I pray for the world to be kind

Now, hold out your hand

Well, somebody, count off the band

Come on, let's light up the town

And, Christmas, don't let me down

Don't let me down

Don't Give Up On Me lyrics - Jamie Cullum

Well, I struggle for perfection

When there's moonlight in the flaws

Well, I'm dazzled by projections

Going deeper into loss

You can close your ears and lock the doors

And never let the hope in

But don't shut out the truth, because

Love only gets in when you're open

Don't give up on me

Will you hold me

Like you can't let go?

Will you hold me

Like you can't let go?

Oh, you can't let go

So come on and let me reach out

And let's use these days for living

When I fall asleep I dream now

How far that I was drifting

Well it's only now I realize

To bloom, you must be broken

But don't shut out the truth, because

Love only gets in when you're open

Don't give up on me

Will you hold me

Like you can't let go?

Will you hold me

Like you can't let go?

Oh, you can't let go

You can close your ears and lock the doors

And never let the hope in

But don't shut out the truth, because

Love only gets in

When you hold me

Will you hold me

Like you can't let go?

Will you hold me

Like you can't let go?

Oh, you can't let go

Don't give up on me

Every Night lyrics - Jamie Cullum

(originally by Paul McCartney)

Every night, I just want to go out

Get out of my head

Every day, I don't want to get up

Get out of my bed

Every night, I want to play out

And every day, I want to do

But tonight I just want to stay in and be with you, ooh

And be with you

Woo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-ooh

Oo-hoo-ooh, mm-hmmh

Woo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-ooh

Oo-hooh, mm-hmmh

Every day, I lean on a lamp post

I'm wasting my time

Every night, I lay on a pillow

I'm resting my mind

Every morning brings a new day

And every night, that day is through

But tonight I just want to stay in and be with you, ooh

And be with you

Woo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-ooh

Oo-ooh, mm-hmmh, believe me mama

Woo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-ooh, ah

Oo-ooh, mm-hmmh

Woo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-ooh

Oo-hoo-ooh, mm-hmmh

Give Me The Simple Life lyrics - Jamie Cullum

(from "Meet The Robinsons" soundtrack)

One two, a one two three four

I don't believe in frettin' or grievin'

Why mess around with strife?

Guess I was cut out to step up and strut out

Give me the simple life

It must be pleasant dining on pheasant

Using the proper knife

I want tomatoes and mashed potatoes

Give me the simple life

Cottage small is all I'm after

Not one that's spacious and wide

Ah, that brings the joy and laughter

With the ones that you love inside

You take the high road, I'll take the low road

Free from all care and strife

Sounds corny and seedy, oh yes, indeed

Give me the simple life

A cottage small is all I'm after

Not one that's spacious and wide

A house that brings the joy and laughter

With the ones that you love inside

You take the high road, I'll take the low road

Free from all care and strife

Sounds corny and seedy, oh yes, indeed

Give me the simple life, give me the simple life

This Winter lyrics - Jamie Cullum

I don't wanna build a snowman

The only man I need is right here

I don't wanna drag any tree

You see, I only want to decorate you, dear

I've only one intention

That I'm gonna pursue

'Cause this winter

My only plan is to love you

You won't find me stuck on the highway

'Cause I'm swerving off the road to your home

Navigating Bay Brightstone

So never again will you be alone

Nothing on my schedule

Is under review

'Cause this winter

My only plan is to love you

No need for sleighbells or trumpets or drums

We'll find a river to skate away on

So come on, all ye faithless

Love all over town

I'm homin' in on one devotion

I dreamt about this all year long

I've got to simplify my aim

So I'll wrap you in my arms, where it's warm

All your other lovers

Can get in a queue

'Cause this winter

My only plan is to kiss you

My only plan is to hold you

My only plan is to love you

Where Is Your Heart At? lyrics - Jamie Cullum

(from "Meet The Robinsons" soundtrack)

You asked me over, and over and over

Have you seen my peacock feathered hat

If it was under a four leaf clover

I'd be on the lawn lookin' for that

Where is your heart at? Nobody knows that

Even though you, him, her, me and then I'll be searching

I've got a feeling you will be reeling

When you are bad and the circus comes to town

And you'll see me leaving dressed up

As a magician or something like that

You're sad and flip-flops are hidden in the

Pockets of your velvet dressing gown

Your diamond cuff lings are hidden in the

Ruffles of your silk white shirt from town

Where is your heart at? Nobody knows that

Even though you, him, her, me and then I'll be searching

I've got a feeling, you will be reeling

When you are bad and the circus comes to town

And you'll see me leaving dressed up

As a magician or something like that, hey

Don't You Know lyrics - Jamie Cullum

Well, don't you know, baby
Well, don't you know baby
Now don't you know baby
Little girl, little girl, don't you know
Please listen to me baby
Girl, I'm in love with you so

Now turn your lamp down low
I said turn your lamp down low
Wooo, turn your lamp down low
And turn your lamp down low
Come on baby
Girl I'm in love with you so

Now I know I've been away
For such a long time
But now baby
I can't get you off of my mind
So come on now baby,
Come on, come on now baby
Listen to me baby
Love your daddy all night long

Now if you love me
Like I love you
We can do all the things that we
Used to do
So come on, come on, come on now baby
Now baby come on
Love your daddy all night long

Have you heard baby
I'm back in town
Let's mess around
See what he's puttin down
Come on now baby
Come on, come on now, child
Come on, come on now, baby
Love your daddy all night long

So turn your lamp down low
Cause I love you so
Baby, baby please come on
Baby, baby please come on
Now you give me talking with me, baby
Love your daddy all night long

The Seer's Tower lyrics - Jamie Cullum

In the tower above the earth,
There is a view that reaches far
Where we see the universe,
I see the fire, I see the end.

Seven miles above the earth,
There is Emmanuel of mothers.
With his sword, with his robe,
He comes dividing man from brothers.

In the tower above the earth, we built it for Emmanuel.
In the powers of the earth, we wait until it rips and rips.
In the tower above the earth, we built it for Emmanuel.
Oh my mother, she betrayed us, but my father loved and bathed us.

Still I go to the deepest grave,
Where I go to sleep alone

Walkin' lyrics - Jamie Cullum

I'm walkin' out the door with you on my mind
I'm walkin' out the door with you on my mind
But every step away from you, I feel like cryin'

I walked into the street, talkin' to myself
I walked into the street, talkin' to myself
No matter what my conscience says, I'm thinkin' 'bout nobody else

I met a brand new girl, phone to make a date
I met a brand new girl, phone to make a date
But when I rang her number up, but I got your number by mistake

You say you love me, baby, don't know what to do
You say you love me, baby, don't know what to do
I'm sure of one thing, I'm in love with you

Good Morning Heartache lyrics - Jamie Cullum (feat. Laura Mvula)

Good morning, heartache, you ole gloomy sight
Good morning, heartache, thought we'd said goodbye last night
I turned and tossed 'til it seemed you had gone
But here you are with the dawn

Wish I'd forget you, but you're here to stay
It seems I met you, when my love went away
Now everyday I start by saying to you
Good morning, heartache, what's new?

Stop haunting me now,
I can't shake you, no how
Just leave me alone
I've got those Monday blues
Straight through Sunday blues

Good morning, heartache, here we go again
Good morning, heartache, you're the one who knew me when
Might as well get used to you hangin' around
Good morning, heartache, sit down

Stop haunting me now
I can't shake you, no how
Just leave me alone
I've got those Monday blues
Straight through Sunday blues

Good morning, heartache, here we go again
Good morning, heartache, you're the one who knew me when
Might as well get used to you hangin' around
Good morning, heartache, sit down

Sack O' Woe lyrics - Jamie Cullum

Always screaming 'cause I'm suffering so
Life's done never such a terrible blow
The bag I'm in is just a sack o'woe

Misery, company and I'm feeling low
Trouble follows me wherever I go
The bag I'm in is just a sack o'woe

Trouble, one thing I understands
Seems to be a part of me
Misery and me go hand in hand
Never ever let me be

Sure as I'm born, one thing I know
The bag I'm in is just a sack o'woe

Always screaming 'cause I'm suffering so
Life's done never such a terrible blow
The bag I'm in is just a sack o'woe

Misery, company and I'm feeling low
Trouble follows me wherever I go
The bag I'm in is just a sack o'woe

Trouble, one thing I understands
Seems to be a part of me
Misery and me go hand in hand
Never ever let me be

Sure as I'm born, one thing I know
The bag I'm in is just a sack o'woe

Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood lyrics - Jamie Cullum (feat. Gregory Porter) (originally by Nina Simone)

Baby, do you understand me now
Sometimes I feel a little mad
But don't you know that no one alive
Can always be an angel
When things go wrong I seem to be bad
But I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood
Understand me, understand me...

Baby, sometimes I'm so carefree
With a joy that's hard to hide
And sometimes it seems again that all I have do is worry
Then you're bound to see my other side
But I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood

If I seem edgy I want you to know
That I never mean to take it out on you
Life has it's problems and I get my share
And that's one thing I never meant to do
Because I love you
Oh, Oh baby don't you know I'm human
Have thoughts like any other one
Sometimes I find myself long regretting
Some little foolish thing some simple thing I've done
But I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood
Understand me, understand me...
Understand me...
Yes, I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood

My One And Only Love lyrics - Jamie Cullum

The very thought of you makes
My heart sing,
Like an April breeze
On the wings of spring
And you come to me all your splendor,
My one and only love

You fill my eager heart with such desire
Every kiss you give sets my soul on fire
I give myself in sweet surrender
My one and only love

The touch of your hand is like heaven
A heaven that I've never known
The blush on your cheek whenever I speak
Tells me that you are my own

You fill my eager heart with such desire
Every kiss you give sets my soul on fire
I give myself in sweet surrender
My one and only love

The touch of your hand is like heaven
A heaven that I've never known
The blush on your cheek whenever I speak
Tells me that you are my own

You fill my eager heart with such desire
Every kiss you give sets my soul on fire
I give myself in sweet surrender
My one and only love

Lovesick Blues lyrics - Jamie Cullum

I'm in love,
I'm in love,
I'm in love with a girl,
That's what's the matter with me
I'm in love,
I'm in love, with a beautiful girl,
But she don't care about me
To make her love me I tried,
How I sighed and I cried
But she just refused
And ever since she's gone away,
I've got them lovesick blues
I've got the feeling called the "blue hoo's,"
since my baby said "Good Bye"
Seems I don't know what to "Do Hoo"
All day long I sit and cry
That last long day we spent alone
But I'm yearning for it yet
She thrilled me, filled me,
with a kind of lovin',
that I will never forget,
the way she called me sweet daddy
It was just a beautiful dream
I hate to think that it's all over
I lost my heart it seems
Cause I got so used to her somehow
But I'm no body's baby now
Gee it's awful when you're lonesome
and get those lovesick blue-oo-oo-oo-oo's
I got the feeling called the blue-oo-oo-oo-oo's
since my baby said "Good Bye"
I hate to think it's all over
All day long I sit and cry
That last long day we spent alone
I'm yearning for it yet
She thrilled me, filled me,
with a kind of lovin',
I will never forget,
I got the lovesick blues...

Losing You lyrics - Jamie Cullum

Was a fool with my money
And I lost every dime
Sun stopped shining
And it rained all the time
Did set me back some
I made it through
But I'll never get over losing you

Do you know how much you mean to me?
Should've told you 'what it's true
I'd get over losing anything
But I'll never get over losing you

When you're young
And there's time
To forget the past
You won't think that time
But you will
I know that I don't have time enough
Cause I'll never get over losing you

I've been cold
I've been hungry
But not for awhile
I guess most of my dreams have come true
With it all here around me
No peace do I find
'Cause I'll never get over losing you
No, I'll never get over losing you

Out Of This World lyrics - Jamie Cullum

You're clear out of this world
When I'm looking at you
I hear out of this world
The music that no mortal ever knew

You're right out of a book
The fairy tale I read when I was so high
No armored knight out of a book
With more enchanted Loralie then I

After waiting so long for the right time
After reaching so long for a star
All at once from a long and lonely night time
And despite time, here you are

I cry, out of this world
If you said we were through
So let me fly out of this world
And spend the next eternity or two with you

You're right out of a book
The fairy tale I read when I was so high
No armored knight out of a book
With more enchanted Loralie then I

After waiting so long for the right time
After reaching so long for a star
All at once from a long and lonely night time
And despite time, here you are

I cry, out of this world
If you said we were through
So let me fly out of this world
And spend the next eternity or two with you

Make Someone Happy lyrics - Jamie Cullum

It's so important to make someone happy.
Make just one someone happy.
Make just one heart to heart you, you sing to

One smile that cheers you.
One face that lights when it nears you.
One girl your - your everything to

Fame, if you win it,
Comes and goes in a minutes
Where's the real stuff in life, to cling to?

Love is the answer.
Someone to love is the answer.
Once you've found her,
Build your world around her.

Make someone happy.
Make just one someone happy.
And you will be happy too.

The Same Things lyrics - Jamie Cullum

In oversharing times
Under some weary skies
Forgotten how to try
Everything you say sounds like a lie

The fog that greets the man
As old as time began
Is no more clearer now
I think we understand even less somehow

The bottle green of the water on the streets
It's climbing higher and higher in defeat
We never drown cause we keep kicking our feet
So rally all of your friends cause they're your fleet

It's just the same things that we don't know
It's just the same things, it's the same things, it's the same things
It's just the same things that we don't know
It's just the same things, it's the same things, it's the same things

What is a truthful state
Is it one you create?
A boat you built for sea
All you need now is some company

I no longer share my bed
With anyone who said
"So I enjoyed your show
Now you can tell me where you want to go"

I wish the chaos could swirl right out of me
So who's cut out for this world that you can see?
If I was trying I'd never make the team
Just making peace with my fickle hopes and dreams

It's just the same things that I don't know
It's just the same things, it's the same things, it's just the same things
It's just the same things that I don't know
It's just the same things, it's the same things, it's the same things

You paint the picture of future memories
Then mod a fire with sticks and dirty leaves
So grab a hold of the only one who sees
And see it clearly you're never gonna be

It's just the same things that I don't know
It's just the same things, it's the same things, it's just the same things
It's just the same things that I don't know
It's just the same things, it's the same things, it's the same things
It's just the same things, oh
It's just the same things, it's the same things, it's the same things
It's just the same things, just the same things, just the same things
It's just the same things that we don't know
It's just the same things, it's the same things, it's the same things

Edge Of Something lyrics - Jamie Cullum

I've got some ways of forgetting now
What you're finding out, what you're finding out
I've got some ways of believing now
What you're leaving out, what you're leaving out
So take a reach down inside your soul
What you gonna find, what you gonna find
And it's so deep down inside your soul
What you leave behind, what you leave behind
I can hear it calling
Can't you tell?

I'm on the edge of something
So I just keep running every time
I lose my head
I'm on the edge of something
So I just keep falling every time
I lose my head

Are there some secrets embedded down
In the frozen ground, in the frozen ground
Under a cold moon and a fractured sky
There's a universe there behind those eyes
You're gonna make good on promises
That you know you could, that you know you could
Cause no one here worships suddenness
Though you wish they would, though you wish they would
I can hear it calling
Can't you tell?

I'm on the edge of something
So I just keep running every time
I lose my head
I'm on the edge of something
So I just keep falling every time
I lose my head

I don't need a vision I'm just waiting on collisions of the brain and the heart
I'm patient for decisions and some stormy revelations I can claim from the start
I'm kicking up a storm
In the valley I was born
I can hear the tower ring
Out here on the edge of something

I'm on the edge of something
So I just keep running every time
I lose my head
I'm on the edge of something
So I just keep falling every time
I lose my head

Everything You Didn't Do lyrics - Jamie Cullum

I will meet you in the city
When it’s lit up by the stars
In the moonlight we’re all pretty
Cos it papers over scars

Ever feel like you belong
To a story you ain’t heard
Doesn’t matter if it’s your song
And you don’t know all the words

[Chorus:]
We should put up a sign
We are citizens of all you can see
We’ve got nothing but time
Cos you’ll find
Everything you didn’t do [x2]
Is standing right in front of you

A euphoric combination
Of a thousand dirty hands
There’s no need for complication
On the shoulders we will stand

It’s a patient exploration
Where discovery is free
There’s no need for explanations
We exists where we can see

[Chorus]

I don’t even know what to say about every little thing
Cos I’m tired and I want to go to sleep
It’s so clear now [x6]
That you’ll find
Everything you didn’t do [x4]
Is standing right in front of you

When I Get Famous lyrics - Jamie Cullum

There's diamonds hiding in my hands
They're gonna cut through the windows
Ain't no one messing with my plans
Right now my star is in limbo
Sit back and watch my scrawny frame
Invade your feelings
All the years you caused me pain
I've got some wounds that need healing

Well you were just too damn aloof
Wearing your Morrissey t-shirt
The kind of girl that's born for youth
Well that's a blessing and some curse
I tell you son beware of those
Who peak too early
Cause all that magic can't be froze
And now it's you who ain't worthy

So baby when I get famous
Everybody's gonna see
Oh oh oh
You never really knew me

Does it make sense to simplify
Now we're knotted in riddles
But I don't care, do you know why
The girls are falling like skittles
Whoever said you needed rights
To tame your beauty
I'll say goodbye to lonely nights
Girls form an orderly queue please

So baby when I get famous
Everybody's gonna see
Oh oh oh
You never really knew me

So given knowledge, given time
I'd take us out of recession
I'd tell the world that all was fine
And that there freedom's a blessing
Cause when I'm looking from the top
You'll all seem smaller
Ain't that what all us humans want?
To stand that little bit taller

So baby when I get famous
Everybody's gonna see
Oh oh oh
You never really knew me
[x5]

Love For $ale lyrics - Jamie Cullum (feat. Roots Manuva)

Love, love for sale
Appetizing young love, love for sale
If you wanna buy my wares
Follow me and climb the stairs
Love for sale

Who, who will buy?
Who would like to sample my, sample my supply?
Love that's fresh and still unspoiled
Love that's only slightly soiled
Love, young love for sale

Let the poets pipe of love
In their childish way
I've been through the mill of love
Better far than they

If you want a thrill of love,
I've been through the mill of love
Old love, new love
Anything but true love

Love, young love for sale
Appetizing young love, young love for sale
If you wanna pay the price,
For a trip to paradise
It's love, it's love for sale

[Roots Manuva]
Task master gimme that raw uncut love
Flying the dove higher than high
He never come down
We illin' ready to stick that neck out
Switcher get sticky now we get the heck out
All grown up now with a feeling for the deepness
Restless, looking for a brand new outlook
Paradise without, paradise within
The devil's design is enticing things
He without sin may frown on us.
Keep schtum mate, take it to the ground and such
Its nobody's business to be in the business
You can have it all just put it on your wish list
All becomes fair in love and war
Less becomes more, more becomes less
When you fight for your right to do for love
Ain't a thing that we won't do for love
Short term part time dancing on the timeline.
Defy definition with the ultimate position of
Karma Sutra, suit yourself
Pick up a love gun and shoot yourself
Feels so good to wanna die for love
Whatever the reason what type of love
Quick love, slow love, never gonna know love
Shame on you, we could make a home
Second to none and jump the outdone
Beat your chest 'cause you's a love champion!

If you wanna pay the price,
For a trip to paradise
It's love, it's love for sale
Young love for sale
Young love, young love for sale
Young love, young love, young love for sale
Young love, young love for sale
Young love for sale

Pure Imagination lyrics - Jamie Cullum

Come with me
And you'll be
In a world of
Pure imagination
What you'll find
When you look
Into your imagination

We'll begin
With a spin
Traveling in
The world of my creation
Living there
You will see
What you truly wish to be

If you want to view paradise
Simply look around and view it
Anything you want to, do it
Want to change the world?
Nothing to it

There is no
Life I know
That compares to
Pure imagination
What you'll find
When you look
Into your imagination

If you want to view paradise
Simply look around and view it
Anything you want to, do it
Want to change the world?
Nothing to it

There is no
Life I know
That compares to
Pure imagination
Living there
You'll be free
If you truly wish to be

Anyway lyrics - Jamie Cullum

Two bit philosopher with pointless proclamations on his t-shirt
Holding it together through a futuristic world that can't be much worse

What did you say, what did you do, what did you lose
You know that love ain't gonna make itself
Sleep through the day, nothing to prove, how do you choose
With all the colours taken off the shelf

I ain't gonna mind read, mind read
Cut me I will still bleed, still bleed
Cause when you've burned through the lies
All the jokes, all the rhymes
No one's gonna stop you from falling

Thought I'd do it anyway, cause there's nothing left for us to say
Thought I'd do it anyway, cause there's nothing left for us to say
I know I shouldn't - but I did it anyway
Cause there's nothing left for us to say
Thought I'd do it anyway, cause there's nothing left for us to say

Always remember that the terrorists of time, well they ain't friendly
All those decisions baby, their empty sound rings so profoundly

Summers they ache, summers they break, summers they waste
Your empty body of the bitter tears
You've run around, chasing a sound, you've never found
That kept you going through the leaner years

Patience ain't a virtue, virtue
Dreamers can't hurt you, hurt you
Cause if you live through it all
May as well lose it all
Nothing's gonna stop you from falling

Thought I'd do it anyway, cause there's nothing left for us to say
Thought I'd do it anyway, cause there's nothing left for us to say

I'm gonna tell you one more time
I'm gonna tell you one more time

Thought I'd do it anyway, cause there's nothing left for us to say
Thought I'd do it anyway, cause there's nothing left for us to say
Thought I'd do it anyway, cause there's nothing left for us to say
I know I shouldn't - but I did it anyway
Cause there's nothing left for us to say

Sad, Sad World lyrics - Jamie Cullum

So let it fall
When it meets you on the other side baby
Let it fall
We're all prisoners in a simple mind baby
Let it fall
You can grip my arm to pass the time baby
Let it fall, yeah

Will you help me paint a smile
On this sad, sad world
Will you help me paint a smile
On this sad, sad world

Your lashes dancing making my aching heart sing
The lights are flashing stirring up all this feeling
My hands are burning every time I'm touching your face
Let me surround you with all the love that you deserve
The dawn'll tell you of everything that you are worth
The blood it runs through everything we know of our fate

So let it fall
When it meets you on the other side baby
Let it fall
We're all prisoners in a simple mind baby
Let it fall
You can grip my arm to pass the time baby
Let it fall, yeah

Will you help me paint a smile
On this sad, sad world
Will you help me paint a smile
On this sad, sad world

So will you help me paint a smile
On this sad, sad world
So come and help me paint a smile
On this sad, sad world

Take Me Out (Of Myself) lyrics - Jamie Cullum

There was an age the battered times
Were coiled up around you like a diamond cage
Though your sparkle's long resigned
It flickers like the embers of a dying blaze
These might be the last days of the blinding lights
So you and me should go and get so high tonight

Take me, take me, take me
Take me out of myself
You and me should go and get so high tonight
Just like everyone else

Take me, take me, take me
Take me out of myself
You and me should go and get so high tonight
Just like everyone else

We crossed the line so many times
It's nothing more than chalk wiped off a darkened wall
Speeding through those crystal nights
Clearly punctuated by some bloody falls
What used to seem so magical now seems so trite
So one more time let's go and get so high tonight

Take me, take me, take me
Take me out of myself
You and me should go and get so high tonight
Just like everyone else

Take me, take me, take me
Take me out of myself
You and me should go and get so high tonight
Just like everyone else

You and me should go and get so high tonight
You and me should go and get so high tonight

Take me, take me, take me
Take me out of myself
You and me should go and get so high tonight
Just like everyone else

Take me, take me, take me
Take me out of myself
You and me should go and get so high tonight
Just like everyone else

Just like everyone else

Save Your Soul lyrics - Jamie Cullum

Know this, it's a universal truth
People let you down
So reach out for the things that you can use
Buried in the ground

I think I've been misunderstood
Not all my choices have been good
In the fading light
So we should put this one to bed
Before it bursts out of my head
Ready for the fight

So when it gets too late
And I find my place
Who will save your soul and love me here
So when it gets too far
Well let down your guard
Who will save your soul and love me here

Inside of another tiny life
Full of big ideas
It strikes me with the baggage left behind
I could dry those tears

All of my secrets they are free
Now watch them tumble out of me
Into better days
So save those homiletic tones
And conjure singing from the moans
And you'll hear me say

So when it gets too late
And I find my place
Who will save your soul and love me here
When it gets too far
Well let down your guard
Who will save your soul and love me here

So step away from castle walls
Those voices calling in the halls
They are moving on
So I'll keep my side of the street
Cleaner than where our pounding feet
Ever walked upon

So when it gets too late
And I find my place
Who will save your soul and love me here
When it gets too far
Well let down your guard
Who will save your soul and love me here

When it gets too late
And I find my place
Who will save your soul and love me here
When it gets too far
Well let down your guard
Who will save your soul and love me here

Get A Hold Of Yourself lyrics - Jamie Cullum

As I sit and wait for some answers
The questions go round like a Kamikaze pilot
Enlightenment's just a romancer
I wish it were here burning brightly though the skylight

Get a hold of yourself
Get a hold of yourself, now boy
Get a hold of yourself
Get a hold of yourself, now

If everyone here is invited
I'm more in the dark than I ever even guessed
Should I cling on to something solid
I wish it were here dressed up in its Sunday best

Get a hold of yourself
Get a hold of yourself, now boy
Get a hold of yourself
Get a hold of yourself, now

Get a hold of yourself,
Get a hold of yourself,
It's time to get a hold of yourself,
Get a hold of yourself, now

You're Not The Only One lyrics - Jamie Cullum

Right now the world looks so exciting
But that first rung it feels so cold
The air up there looks so inviting
You'll do the rest when you are old
The printed pictures they stain your hands
It's like a memory you don't own
The architecture of your grand plans
Designed to put you on the throne
The bitter taste of the unknown

I'll tell you for nothing you're not the only one singing singing
Trying to bring to life your dreams
I'll tell you for nothing you're not the only one who believes

I don't know if you're gonna make it
How many girls you're gonna know
I don't know if you'll pay your dad back
With front row tickets to your show
Right now your snare drum is a trash can
Your bedroom shadows are your stage
Your old best friend he is your one fan
He'll watch the light inside you fade

I'll tell you for nothing you're not the only one singing singing
Trying to bring to life your dreams
I'll tell you for nothing you're not the only one who believes
I'll tell you for nothing you're not the only one singing singing
Trying to bring to life your dreams
I'll tell you for nothing you're not the only one who believes

I'll tell you for nothing you're not the only one singing singing
Trying to bring to life your dreams
I'll tell you for nothing you're not the only one who believes
I'll tell you for nothing you're not the only one singing singing
Trying to bring to life your dreams
I'll tell you for nothing you're not the only one fading away

Comes Love lyrics - Jamie Cullum

Comes a rainstorm, get your rubbers on your feet
Comes a snow-storm, you can get a little heat
Comes love, nothing can be done.

Comes a fire, then you know just what to do
Blow a tire, you can buy another sure
Comes love, nothing can be done.

Don't try hiding cause there isn't any use
You start sliding when your heart turns on the juice

Comes a headache, you can lose it in a day
Comes a toothache, see your dentist right away
Comes love, nothing can be done.

Comes a heat-wave, you can hurry to the shore
Comes the summer, you can hide behind the door
Comes love, nothing can be done.

Comes the measles, you can quarrantine the room
Comes a mousy, you can chase it with the broom
Comes love, nothing can be done.

That's all brother, if you've ever been in love
That's all, brother, you know what I'm speaking of

Comes a nightmare, you can always stay awake
Comes depression, you may get another break
Comes love, nothing can be done.

Just One Of Those Things lyrics - Jamie Cullum

I am sorry to say I didn't know her name
The fact the last 6 hours are a haze
Piecing together the fragments of a frame
why my motorskills are out of face
I feel like I've woken in a maze
Though we've never met before
baby I am sure

It was just one of those things
Just one of those crazy flings
One of those bells that now and then rings
It was one of those things

It was just one of those nights
Just one of those fabulous flights
A trip to the moon on gossamer wings
It was one of those things

If we'd thought a bit about the end of it
When we started jumpin' town
We'd have been aware that our love affair
Was too hot not to cool down

So good-bye, good-bye and amen
Here's hopin' we'll meet now and then
It was great fun
But it was just one of those things (one of those things)

[Solo]

Yeah--ahh,
If we'd thought a bit 'bout the end of it
When we started to bust up the town
We'd have been aware that this love affair
Was too hot not to cool down

So good-bye, good-bye and amen
Here's hopin' we'll meet now and then
It was great fun
But it was just one of those things

I'm All Over It lyrics - Jamie Cullum

Hello Innocence
Though it seems like we've been friends for years
I'm finishing
How I wish I had never begun
Though it should be the last one
And it's dragging me down to my knees
Where I'm begging you please

Let me go
Don't you know

I'm all over it now
And I can't say how glad I am about that
I'm all over it now
Cause I worked and I cursed and I tried
And I said I could change and I lied
Well there's something still moves me inside

She's a melody
That I've tried to forget but I can't
It still follows me
When I wake in the dead of the night
And I know that I can't fight
That song going round in my head
Like the last things you said

Please don't go
You think I know

I'm all over it now
And I can't say how glad I am about that
I'm all over it now
Cause I worked and I cursed and I cried
And I said I could change but I lied
Well there's something still moves me inside

No I won't come back
No I won't come back
No I won't come back
No I won't come back

One dark morning
She left without a warning
And took the red-eye back to London town

I'm all over it now
I'm all over it now
I'm all over it now
I'm all over it now

I'm all over it now
And I can't say how glad I am about that
I'm all over it now
Cause I worked and I cursed and I've cried
And I said I would change but I lied
Yeah there's something still moves me inside

Wheels lyrics - Jamie Cullum

Everyday you live a life so full of hope
Shouldn't drag your soul around you like a leather vogue
You remember everything you thought your life would be
Well its fallin through the craks of ancient history

Oh, Is this something that I never, something that I never had
Oh, Is this something that I never, something that I never had
Tell you what I've heard
The wheels are falling off, the wheels are falling off the world

Friday night and everything is a ok
We are living like we've always known a different way
We are taking on our different roads before our goal
It'll bring you back around to the one you know

Oh, Is this something that I never, something that I never had
Oh, Is this something that I never, something that I never had
Tell you what I've heard
The wheels are falling off, the wheels are falling off the world

If I Ruled The World lyrics - Jamie Cullum

If I ruled the world,
Every day would be the first day of spring.
Every heart would have a new song to sing,
and we'd sing of the joy every morning would bring.

If I ruled the world,
Every man would be as free as a bird.
Every voice would be a voice to be heard,
take my word we would treasure each day that occurred.

My world would be a beautiful place
Where we would weave such wonderful dreams.
My world would wear a smile on its face,
like the man and the moon has, when the moon beams.

[piano solo]

If I ruled the world,
Every man would see the world was his friend. Yeah
There'd be happiness that no man could end,
no my friend, not if I ruled the world.

Every hand would be held up high,
There'd be sunshine in everyones sky.
If the day ever dawned,
will I rule the world.

Every hand would be held up high,
Every star would shine in everyones sky.
If the day ever dawned,
will I rule the world.

You And Me Are Gone lyrics - Jamie Cullum

Every time I see what's written on your mind
I turn away and drop my guard
Your high horse will be the leader of the blind
Tender love and truth aside
I'm in possession of so many tones
I loved it all my life
Feel the rhythm in your very bones
I never sleep at night.

You and me are gone
You and me are gone
Winter's bitter song
You and me are gone, gone away.

Truthfully I've got the most upper hand
I never seem to finish lovin'
You train your eye and force yourself to make a stand
When it dies a warmer stuffing
Lose yourself and on the edge of reason
Teenage ears so drown
Even I don't know what I am feeling
Lost you til I'm found.

You and me are gone
You and me are gone
Winter's bitter song
You and me are gone, gone away.

Yeah...

See the joyous pro's have left my tongue
For other warmer things,
Battle songs are written to be sung
A million toxic lies.

You and me are gone
You and me are gone
You and me are gone
You and me are gone
You and me are gone
You and me are gone

Don't Stop The Music lyrics - Jamie Cullum

[Rihanna cover]

It's gettin late
I'm making my way over to my favorite place
I gotta get my body moving
shake the stress away
I wasn't looking for nobody when you looked my way
Possible candidate (yeah)

Who knew,
That you'd be up here looking like you do
You're making staying over here impossible
Baby I must say your aura is incredible
If you don't have to go, don't

Do you know what you started
I just came here to party
But now we're rockin on the dancefloor
Acting naughty
Your hands around my waist
Just let the music play
We're hand in hand
Chest to chest
And now we're face to face

I wanna take you away
lets escape into the music
Dj let it play
I just can't refuse it
Like the way you do this
Keep on rockin to it
Please don't stop the
Please don't stop the music

I wanna take you away
lets escape into the music
Dj let it play
Like the way you do this
Keep on rockin to it
Please don't stop the music
Please don't stop the
Please don't stop the
Please don't stop the music

Baby are you ready cause it's getting close
Don't you feel the passion ready to explode
What goes on between us no one has to know
This is a private show (oh)

Do you know what you started
I just came here to party
But now we're rockin on the dancefloor
Acting naughty
Your hands around my waist
Just let the music play
We're hand in hand
Chest to chest
And now we're face to face

I wanna take you away
lets escape into the music
Dj let it play
I just can't refuse it
Like the way you do this
Keep on rockin to it
Please don't stop the
Please don't stop the music

I wanna take you away
lets escape into the music
Dj let it play
Like the way you do this
Keep on rockin to it
Please don't stop the music
Please don't stop the
Please don't stop the
Please don't stop the music

(Please don't stop the music
Please don't stop the music
Please don't stop the music)

Love Ain't Gonna Let You Down lyrics - Jamie Cullum

[VERSE 1:]
Everyone knows that I'm rightfully yours
So bring out your dirt from your previous wars
So lay thee to rest 'cause I'm chasing away
all the dust that you're Leaving behind

[CHORUS:]
Because Love ain't gonna let you down
love ain't gonna let you down no more
Because Love ain't gonna let you down
love ain't gonna let you down no more

'Cause I'll turn your world around
and love ain't gonna let you down

[VERSE 2:]
You wear your heart like a brooch for all to see
But the blood that pumps through
So will you save that for me
I've sweetened my tongue
And I've sharpened my words and my wit
And I've written my lines

[CHORUS:]
Because Love ain't gonna let you down
love ain't gonna let you down no more
Because Love ain't gonna let you down
love ain't gonna let you down no more

'Cause I'll turn your world around
and love ain't gonna let you down

[BRIDGE:]
Feel it burning like a bomb raging a thousand summers grazing
on your skin restlessly anticipating so many tiny things
[etc...]

[CHORUS]

Mixtape lyrics - Jamie Cullum

Everything I know is you
Let me tell you what we're listening to
I'm a gentle soul I'm sure
But on the stereo I'm a dictator
Do you even have a tape machine?
To facilitate my plastic dreams
All the things that I have seen, from
Morrissey to John Coltrane AHHH!...
Cinematic Orchestra, De La Soul the Shangri-La's
An adolescent love letter, a sparkling jewel of manual labour

I'll make you a mixtape that's a blueprint of my soul
It may sound grand but babe it's all you need to know
I'll make you a mixtape that will charm you into bed
It details everything that's running round my head

That's running round my head

Fondling, record and play
Without you it's records night and day
This ain't no disc of MP3's
This one' handmade, fashioned lovingly

Plant the rythm in your bones
You're the only angel in headphones
My love can paint a million tones
From Nine Inch Nails to Louis Armstrong
So resurrect your stereo
And the swathrs of melodies will flow
Thelonious, Maurizio
I tell you babe it will make my heart glow

I'll make you mixtape that's a blueprint of my soul
It may sound grand but babe it's all you need to know
I'll make you a mixtape that will charm you into bed
It details everything that's running round my head

I Think I Love lyrics - Jamie Cullum

I think I love
every single little crack on your face
I think I love
even our most casual embrace
You don't have to try
Cause I've made up my mind
Baby, I think I love you today

Remember that time
you threw a can of beer at me like a stone
You drunk too much wine
and threw up in the taxi cab on the way home
You looked like a mess
But I must confess
Baby, I think I love you today

When I think what we could do
If I could only say to you, yeah
All of these things,
well do I dare
and would you care?

I think I love
everytime you honor me with a kiss
I think I love
well, there are just a million things I could list
Should let you know
but maybe tomorrow
Baby, I think I love you today

We Run Things lyrics - Jamie Cullum

We run things another way,
We run things another way,
Getting love if you can love (yeah)
Getting love if you can love (yeah)
Nothing left for you to say,
Trouble melts and ridence stays,
Don't stop 'coz it's getting tense now.

We run things another way,
We run things another way,
I draw a face on a dartboard (yeah)
I wear it out like a record (yeah)
Tierd eyes an' razor blades,
Tearing through a radio wave,
Don't stop 'coz it's getting tense now

'Coz I'm trying to hold on to something, Yeahh,
'Coz if you let me,
I'll show ya
I'll do it, can ya' hear it?
We run things another way,
We run things another way,
We run things another way,
We run things, another way.

We run things another way,
We run things another way,
Get on top 'coz I'm falling (yeah)
I never stop with your calling (yeah)
I shiver now I feel the raise,
I batter time and wasted days,
Don't stop if ya wanna tense now

'Coz I'm trying to hold on to something, Yeahh,
'Coz if you let me,
I'll show ya
I'll do it, can ya' hear it?
We run things another way,
We run things,
I'm trying to hold on to something, yeah,
'Coz if you let me,
I'll show ya
I'll do it, can ya' hear it?
We run things another way,
We run things another way,
We run things another way,
We run things, another way.

Not While I'm Around lyrics - Jamie Cullum

Nothing's gonna harm you, not while I'm around.
No one's gonna hurt you, not while I'm around.

Demons are prowling everywhere, nowadays,
I'll send 'em howling,
I got ways.

No one's gonna hurt you,
No one's gonna dare.
Others can desert you,
Not to worry,
whistle, I'll be there.

Demons'll charm you with a smile, for a while,
But in time...
Nothing can harm you
Not while I'm around...

...

Demons'll charm you with a smile, for a while
But in time...
Nothing can harm you
Not while I'm around...

Music Is Through lyrics - Jamie Cullum

If you wanna get with me
Then you've gotta pin me down
Cover everything you see,
In the sweat that I could drown

Watch it fall and let it die,
The rain will cut you open now
All the words are plagiarised,
They crystallise your tears somehow

If you look like you wann, baby I don't
Mind if I do
Girl I got your number,
Call you when the music is through
If you look like you wanna, baby I don't
Mind if I do
Girl I've got your number,
Call you when the music is through

If you wanna fuck with me,
Lord you'll never bring me down
All the things you never see,
In the sweat I could drown

If you wanna fuck with me,
Then you gotta get me down
All the things you never see,
In the sweat I could drown

If you look like you wanna,
Baby I don't mind if Id do, do, do
Girl I've got your number, call you when the
Music is through, through, through
If you look like you wanna, baby I don't
Mind if I do, do, do
Girl I've got your number, call you when the
Music is through, through, through

If you wanna get with me,
Then you've gotta pin me down
Everything you see's for free,
In the sweat I could drown

If you look like you wanna,
Baby I don't mind if I do, do, do
Girl I've got your number, call you when the
Music is through, through, through
If you look like you wanna,
Baby I don't mind if I do, do, do
Girl I've got your number, call you when the
Music is through, through, through

I Love This lyrics - Jamie Cullum

Every single part of me
Is full of possibilities
My tired eyes are blinking in the glare
If you and I should make out too
We’re drunk and have to both come up for air

Rolled up socks and empty hall
Will a game called football
Only goal I ever really scored
The truth is I can climb a tree
Joked about our history
And Melanie

[Chorus:]
I love this better than anything
I love this – everything falls apart
Can you mend my broken heart
Cause I love this

Where we are survivors roll
The tiny bets we pay a toll
Every single second of the youth
It’s just another secret in
The rusty confused version of the truth

I’ll put it in perspective
If you’re feeling too reflective
Just bones of us from a of why you are
Have you seen the beauty in
The chaos that surrounds you like the stars

[Repeat Chorus]

Truthfully our love is like a dyslexic
Upside down and back and front couldn’t fix it
Of every heart I loved is gonna love a lot of things
Well this time – don’t let me down

[Repeat Chorus]

Gran Torino lyrics - Jamie Cullum

Realign all the stars
Above my head
Warning signs
Travel far
I drink instead
On my own
Oh,how I've known
The battle scars
And worn out beds

Gentle now
A tender breeze blows
Whispers through a Gran Torino
Whistling another tired song

Engines humm and bitter dreams grow
Heart locked in a Gran Torino
It beats A lonely rhythm all night long

These streets are old
They shine with the things I've known
And breaks through the trees
Their sparkling

Your world
Is nothing more
Than all
The tiny things
You've left behind

So tenderly
Your story is
Nothing more
Than what you see
Or
What you've done
Or will become
Standing strong
Do you belong
In your skin
Just wondering

Gentle now a tender breeze blows
Whispers through the Gran Torino
Whistling another tired song
Engines humm and bitter dreams grow
A heart locked in a Gran Torino
It beats A lonely rhythm
All night long

May I be so bold and stay
I need someone to hold
That shudders my skin
Their sparkling

Your world
Is nothing more
Than all
The tiny things
You've left
Behind

So realign
All the stars
Above my head
Warning signs
Travel far
I drink instead
On my own
Oh
How i've known
The battle scars
And worn out beds

Gentle now a tender breeze blows
Whispers through the Gran Torino
Whistling another tired song
Engines humm and better dreams grow
Heart locked in a Gran Torino
It beats a lonely rhythm
All night long
It beats a lonely rhythm
All night long
It beats a lonely rhythm
All night long

Get Your Way lyrics - Jamie Cullum

Dinner at eight, that sounds fine,
I suppose that means you'll turn up 'round nine.
Bought a bunch of flowers, just for her,
She says the burden's on the receiver.

I opened the door and you walked in,
(Sniff) The scent of wild jasmine.
The room, seemed to freeze in time,
My regular table will be just fine.

Radiant and elegant, you might be
But your concentration is so go-lightly
Both of your eyes reflecting the moon,
You really think you own the room.

[CHORUS:]
So What Game Shall We Play Today?
How About The One Where You Don't Get Your Way?
But Even If You Do,
That's Okay.
So What Game Shall We Play Today?
How About The One Where You Don't Get Your Way?
But Even If You Do,
That's Okay.

Try to pick it up, reading the signs,
It's turning out to be a real good time,
And who'd have thought that entertainment,
Lies in the winter of your discontent.

Now, sit at the table, face to face,
Queen takes pawn, check or checkmate!
I feel your foot brush against my leg,
I'm not that easily led.

You flutter your eyes and you toss your hair,
I have to say that it is kind of unfair,
Let me tell you baby now what's in store,
You win the battle, but I'll win the war!

[CHORUS]

This has been fun, I suppose,
Although my feelings are all juxtaposed,
But truth be told, I'm as fickle as hell,
But gentlemen never kiss and tell!

[CHORUS]

London Skies lyrics - Jamie Cullum

Paint a picture,
Clear cut and pale on a cold winters day,
Shapes and cool light wander the streets like an army of strays,
On a cold winters Day.

[Chorus:]
Will you let me romanticize,
The beauty in our London Skies,
You know the sunlight always shines,
Behind the clouds of London Skies.

Patient moments you chill to the bone under infinite greys,
Vision hindered mist settling low like a ghostly ballet,
On a cold winters Day.

[Chorus]

[Bridge:]
Nothing is certain except everything you know can change,
you worship the sun but now,
can you fall for the rain...

[Chorus]

Photograph lyrics - Jamie Cullum

Her name was written on a photograph,
Right next to her red, sunburnt face,
It all had happened in that long tall grass,
About a mile from her old place,
I can't remember how it started
And if it lasted that day in the sun.

We said that we were going to study hard,
We held our books instead of hands,
She held a blanket over cans of beer,
I can't deny I was so full of fear.

It's just another story caught up
In another photograph I found.
And it seems like another person lived that life A great many years ago from now,

When I look back on my ordinary, ordinary life,
I see so much magic, though I missed it at the time.
When I look back on my ordinary ordinary, ordinary life,
I see so much magic, though I missed it at the time.

And there's the first time that I tried that stuff,
I think I look a little green,
I remember throwing up behind a bush,
And I found it hard to use my feet,
And who's that easily led
Little boy who's really off his head?

It was the same night that I kissed that girl,
The tall one with the auburn hair,
I remember laughing coz to kiss me,
She had to sit down on a chair!
She tasted like the schnapps she'd drunk,
And the cigarette she'd stolen from her mum.

And it's just another story caught up in another photograph I found.

When I look back on my ordinary, ordinary life,
I see so much magic, though I missed it at the time.
When I look back on my ordinary ordinary, ordinary life,
I see so much magic, though I missed it at the time.

I Only Have Eyes For You lyrics - Jamie Cullum

Are the stars out tonight?
I don't know if it's cloudy or bright
'cause I only have eyes for you, dear
My love must be some kind of blind love
I don't see anybody but you
The moon may be high
But I can't see a thing in the sky
'cause I only have eyes for you.

I don't know if we're in a garden
Or on a crowded avenue
You are here, so am I
Maybe millions of people go by
But they all disappear from view
I only have eyes for you
My love must be some kind of blind love
I don't see anybody but you

Nothing I Do lyrics - Jamie Cullum

We were so drunk last night,
We had that stupid fight,
You called me a useless selfish prick,
So I'm in a fix right now,
And we'll measure the truth somehow,
Love is a funny thing to me

[Pre-Chorus:]
Then you stormed out and grabbed your coat,
While slamming shut the door,
A ruthless move so cold you left your keys inside the door Oh...

[Chorus:]
Can Nothing I do make you happy anymore,
Nothin' I say put a smile onto your face,
Can nothing I say bring us back together,
Nothing I do put a smile onto your face.

[Spoken] Well Okay..

[Verse 2:]
Next day I called you back,
And you called me a stupid twat,
And then you were crying on the phone,
You sounded so upset, you said,
I wasn't the man you'd met
3 years and 7 months ago

[Pre-Chorus 2:]
I pleaded with her take me back,
I'll change my sorry ways
So tell me why mysteriously I'm annoyed instead of shamed
Ohhh

[Chorus:]
Can Nothing I do make you happy anymore,
Can nothin' I say put a smile onto your face
Nothing I do bring us back together
Nothing say put a smile onto your face

[Bridge:]
MMmmmm, Yeahhh

I'm pondering it all after that call
I think it is clear
I am here, you're from another stratosphere
Oh, now all the things she said they went around my head
And come out my ear,
And not before long,
This stubborn soul thinks he's done no wrong.

[Instrumental]

[Pre Chorus:]
As when the questions flutter
'round my head like butterflies,
My head spins at reflecting on
Another love's demise, Ohhhh

[Chorus:]
Can Nothing I do make you happy anymore,
Can nothin' I say put a smile onto your face
Can nothing I do bring us back together
Nothing I say put a smile onto your face,

Ohhhhh

[spoke] All together, 1,2,3...
