Phil Collins - You'll be in my heart

Come stop your crying
It will be all right
Just take my hand
Hold it tight

I will protect you
from all around you
I will be here
Don't you cry

For one so small,
you seem so strong
My arms will hold you,
keep you safe and warm
This bond between us
Can't be broken
I will be here
Don't you cry

'Cause you'll be in my heart
Yes, you'll be in my heart
From this day on
Now and forever more

You'll be in my heart
No matter what they say
You'll be here in my heart, always

Why can't they understand
the way we feel
They just don't trust
what they can't explain
I know we're different but,
deep inside us
We're not that different at all

And you'll be in my heart
Yes, you'll be in my heart
From this day on
Now and forever more

Don't listen to them
'Cause what do they know
We need each other,
to have, to hold
They'll see in time
I know

When destiny calls you
You must be strong
I may not be with you
But you've got to hold on
They'll see in time
I know
We'll show them together

'Cause you'll be in my heart
Yes, you'll be in my heart
From this day on,
Now and forever more

Oh, you'll be in my heart
No matter what they say
You'll be in my heart, always
Always

Trijntje Oosterhuis - Nu dat jij er bent

Als je in mijn ogen kijkt
lijkt de wereld stil te staan
De wind houdt op met waaien
en bevroren is de maan
Je bent stralend als de zon
Je bent volmaakt, zo naakt en klein
En de wereld lijkt voor eventjes perfect te zijn

Ik wist niet dat ik na een blik
zo veel van je houden zou
Maar ik weet nu al niet eens meer
hoe ik leefde zonder jou
Voor zoveel wezenlijke dingen
Leek ik blind tot dit moment
En die zijn ineens zo zichtbaar
Nu dat jij er bent

Oh, ik hoop dat ik je geven kan
wat jij me geeft
Zo lang ik leef...
Ik zal onvoorwaardelijk waken aan jouw zij
En ik hoop dat je ooit voelen mag
wat ik nu voel
Wat ik bedoel
En wat in woorden niet te vangen is voor mij

Wanneer je in mijn armen ligt
en zo tevreden naar me lacht
Lijk ik alles te vergeten
dat daar buiten op mij wacht
Alle strijd en alle tranen
Alle stille pijn verdwijnt
En de wereld lijkt voor eventjes
normaal te zijn

Marco Borsato - Slaap maar

Ik zie hoe je moeders ogen stralen
De liefde heeft haar aangeraakt
Ik zoek een zin die ik kan vertalen
Wat jij in mij hebt losgemaakt

Slaap maar
En weet dat je welkom bent
We leven naar het moment
Dat jij hier bij ons zal zijn
Zorg maar dat je groter groeit
Voor ons heb je al een naam
Je wieg staat al bij het raam
Dus neem de tijd

Ik heb een signaal van jou gekregen
En luister hoe je hartje klopt
Ik voel je zo nu en dan bewegen
Wanneer je naar het leven schopt

Slaap maar
En weet dat je welkom bent
We leven naar het moment
Dat jij hier bij ons zal zijn
Zorg maar dat je groter groeit
Voor ons heb je al een naam
Je wieg staat al bij het raam
Dus neem de tijd

Slaap nu maar
En wacht op een goed moment
Je weet dat je welkom bent
Dus neem de tijd

Elton John – Circle of Life

From the day we arrive on the planet
And blinking, step into the sun
There's more to be seen than can ever be seen
More to do than can ever be done

Some say eat or be eaten
Some say live and let live
But all are agreed as they join the stampede
You should never take more than you give

In the circle of life
It's the wheel of fortune
It's the leap of faith
It's the band of hope
Till we find our place
On the path unwinding
In the circle, the circle of life

Some of us fall by the wayside
And some of us soar to the stars
And some of us sail through our troubles
And some have to live with the scars

There's far too much to take in here
More to find than can ever be found
But the sun rolling high through the sapphire sky
Keeps great and small on the endless round

In the circle of life
It's the wheel of fortune
It's the leap of faith
It's the band of hope
Till we find our place
On the path unwinding
In the circle, the circle of life

Sarah McLachlan – Ordinary Miracle

It’s not that usual when everything is beautiful
It’s just another ordinary miracle today

The sky knows when its time to snow
You don’t need to teach a seed to grow
It’s just another ordinary miracle today

Life is like a gift they say
Wrapped up for you everyday
Open up and find a way
To give some of your own

Isn’t it remarkable?
Like every time a raindrop falls
It’s just another ordinary miracle today

Birds in winter have their fling
And always make it home by spring
It’s just another ordinary miracle today

When you wake up everyday
Please don’t throw your dreams away
Hold them close to your heart
Cause we are all a part
Of the ordinary miracle

Ordinary miracle
Do you want to see a miracle?

Its seems so exceptional
Things just work out after all
It’s just another ordinary miracle today

The sun comes up and shines so bright
It disappears again at night
It’s just another ordinary miracle today

It’s just another ordinary miracle today

Michael Bublé - Everything lyrics

You're a falling star, You're the get away car.
You're the line in the sand when I go too far.
You're the swimming pool, on an August day.
And you're the perfect thing to say.

And you play you're coy, but it's kinda cute.
Ah, When you smile at me you know exactly what you do.
Baby don't pretend, that you don't know it's true.
Cause you can see it when I look at you.

And in this crazy life, and through these crazy times
It's you, it's you, You make me sing.
You're every line, you're every word, you're everything.

You're a carousel, you're a wishing well,
And you light me up, when you ring my bell.
You're a mystery, you're from outer space,
You're every minute of my everyday.

And I can't believe, uh that I'm your man,
And I get to kiss you baby just because I can.
Whatever comes our way, ah we'll see it through,
And you know that's what our love can do.

And in this crazy life, and through these crazy times
It's you, it's you, You make me sing
You're every line, you're every word, you're everything.

So, La, La, La, La, La, La, La
So, La, La, La, La, La, La, La

And in this crazy life, and through these crazy times
It's you, it's you, You make me sing.
You're every line, you're every word, you're everything.
You're every song, and I sing along.
'Cause you're my everything.
Yeah, yeah

So, La, La, La, La, La, La, La
So, La, La, La, La, La, La, La, La, La, La, La

Céline Dion - In some small way

There's a tree, standing there
In such an ordinary way
But as I, Look around
Everything keeps changing

There's a leaf on that tree
And it floats into a stream
Like everything, it gets carried away
To the sea

And if we give a little of our love away
Maybe meet in the middle every night and day
If we could hear just a whisper of what the heart needs to say
It could sure make a difference in some small
In some small way

In the heart lies the key,
That unlocks your desitiny
Look within and we'll find,
Everything we're longing for
And if we give a little of our love away
Maybe meet in the middle every night, everyday
If we could hear just a whisper of what the heart needs to say
It could sure make a difference in some small
In some small way

Ohhhhhh may you cherish each moment you live
And know all the love that you give will go on, and on and on

There's a sky, vast and blue
And it lies deep inside of you
Breath it in, let it out
Breath it in again

And if we give a little of our love away
Maybe meet in the middle every night, everyday
If we could hear just a whisper of what the hearts tryin to say
It could sure make a difference in some small
In some small way

And if we give a little of our love away
Maybe meet in the middle every night, everyday
If we could hear just a whisper of what the hearts tryin to say
It could sure make a difference in some small
In some small way
