Playlist Idina Menzel

idina menzel - a hero comes home

Out of the mist of history he?ll come again
Sailing on ships across the sea to a wounded nation
Signs of a savior and fire on the water
It?s what we prayed for, one of our own

Just wait though wide he may roam
Always a hero comes home
He goes where no one has gone
But always a hero comes home

Deep in the heart of darkness sparks a dream of light
Surrounded by hopelessness he finds the will to fight
There?s no surrender, always remember
It doesn?t end here, we?re not alone

Just wait though wide he may roam
Always a hero comes home
He goes where no one has gone
But always a hero comes home

And he will come back on a crimson tide
Dead or alive
And even though we know the bridge has burned
He will return? He will return!

Just wait though wide he may roam
Always a hero comes home
He knows of places unknown
But always a hero comes home

Someday he may carve his stone
The hero comes home

He goes and comes back alone
But always a hero comes home
Just wait though wide he may roam
Always a hero comes home.

idina menzel - heart on my sleeve

She will never be invincible
She will never be some Florence Nightingale
Her thresholds invisible but she?ll hang on like hell
Yeah, she may be transparent
She?s got no defenses to speak of
But she?ll stand here before you with no pride or prejudice
Just steadfast and certain she?ll land on her own two feet
You?ll think you can break her
?Cause you think that she?s crazy and weak
But her power will defy you when she wears her heart on hersleeve
Heart on her sleeve
She will never learn you?re tranquility
She will never learn how to let things slide off her
Joy over whelm her and her sorrow won?t subside
Yeah, she still may be transparent
She got no got no defenses to speak of
But she will stand here before you with no pride or prejudice
Just steadfast and certain that she?ll land on her own two feet
You think you can break her
?Cause you think that she?s crazy and weak
But her power will defy you when she wears her heart on hersleeve
Oh, you may condemn me
With your bitter words and untouchable rage
Yeah, you may torment me
?Cause I don?t lead my life in your way
But I will stand here before you with no pride or prejudice
Just steadfast and certain that I will land on my own two feet
You think you can break me
Bring my head down to my knees
But my power will defy you when my heart?s on my sleeve

idina menzel - gorgeous

Ohhhhh
In a perfect world
In another time
In a far off place
We wouldn't need to justify
Everything we are
All that we believe
We can finally be whoever
We want to be
When we cant be heard
When we cant be seen
I will call you close
And you will reach for me

When all
Of the beauty turns to pain
When all of the madness
Falls like rain
As long as we crash
And we colide
We will be gorgeous you and I
In a perfect sun, oh

With a window pain
With a bedroom door
The city wants to fight but
It can't touch us anymore
We have come so far
We have shed our skin
What is taken from us now
And what we have to give
When we cant be heard
When we cant be seen
I will call you close
And you will reach for me

When all
Of the beauty turns to pain
When all of the madness
Falls like rain
As long as we crash
And we colide
We will be gorgeous you and I
And when
We are drowning in the noise
How bout it's not
To find your voice
As long as we crash
And we colide
We will be gorgeous you and I
In a perfect sun, oh

In a perfect world
In another time
In a faroff place
We wouldn't need to justify
Everything we are
And all that we believe
We can finally be whoever
We want to be
when we cant be seen
I will call you close
And you will reach for me

When all
Of the beauty turns to pain
When all of the madness
Falls like rain
As long as we crash
And we colide
We will be gorgeous you and I
And when
We are drowning in the noise
How bout it's not
To find your voice
As long as you're right
Here by my side
We will be gorgeous you and I

idina menzel - where do i begin

Where do I begin my love?
Starting with the things
I haven't said enough of
Starting with the day
You changed my life
And ending with the way
I feel tonight
Where do I begin?

Where do I belong
If you're not here?
This is way beyond
My darkest fear
Don't know where I am
Or where I start
The trail in between
Is way too far
Where do I begin?

I've always counted
All my blessings
Knowing you'll defend me
Stand by my side
I always turn
And lose my sense's
Each time
I intended words
To come out right
Where do I begin my love?

Maybe with the morning
You brought me the sun
Maybe with the stars
From out of space
You took a few
And lit up my face
Where do I begin?

I've always counted
All my blessings
Knowing you'll defend me
Stand by my side
I always turn
And lose my senses
Eeach time
I intended for these words
Would come out right

Where do I begin my love?
I always read the last page
Instead of the first one
There's no need
To rush it all in
I love you
And I'll say it again
Where do I begin?
Where do we begin?

idina menzel - don t let me down

Where do you go?
When you're alone
And in your head
Why do they know you?
Is your story
Painted in red?
What do you see?
What do you dream
When you're awake?
What have they
Seen of you?
Are you afraid
Of what's been said?
And if time
Stood still
If you won't be
A witness
No one ever will

I hear a voice
That's in my head
Don't let me down
'Cause I can't hold
The future in my head
So many things
I should've said
That let me down
And I would be
A lucky girl
If time stood
On it's head
Don't let me down

Don't let me down
Don't let them see
These shadows
Falling over me
Where do you go
When you're awake
And in your head
Why do they know you?
Is your story
Painted in red?
And if time
Stood still
If i can't be
My teacher
No one ever will

I hear a voice
That's in my head
Don't let me down
'Cause I can't hold
The future in my head
So many things
I should've said
That let me down
And I can't choose
The road ahead
Close my eyes
And hold my breath
And hope
My little doubt
Won't let me down
Oh, I can't choose
The road ahead
Close my eyes
And hold my breath
And hope
My little doubt
Won't let me down

Oh
Don't let me down
Ooohhhh
Don't let me down

And if time
Stood still
If i can't be
My teacher
No one ever will

I hear a voice
That's in my head
Don't let me down
(Oh, don't let me down)
'Cause I can't hold
The future in my head
So many things
I should've said
That let me down
I hear a voice
That's in my head
Don't let me down
(Please, please
don't let me down)
So many things
I should have said
That let me down
'Cause i would be
A lucky girl
If time stood
On it's head
Don't let me down

idina menzel - i feel everything

Like a prima ballerina
I tip toe, tip toe around you constantly
I hear the water running
Will it wash your tears or leak through the ceiling?
Make my way up a spiral staircase
Hope to God you had a good day

When you're furious
When you start to freeze
When you can't be touched
I feel everything
And when you despair
When you cannot breathe
When you wouldn't dare
I feel everything
When you're in ecstasy
But you're not with me
I feel everything

On a tightrope
On a wire
I'll attempt to jump through a ring of fire
I am waiting all the while
For a glimpse of something to bring us higher
One little foot in front of the other
Don't you know I'm afraid of thunder

When you're furious
When you start to freeze
When you can't be touched
I feel everything
And when you despair
When you cannot breathe
When you wouldn't dare
I feel everything
When you're in ecstasy
But you're not with me
I feel everything

Oh

There's a fine line between love and hurting
And knowing when to walk away

Like a prima ballerina
I will tiptoe tiptoe around you constantly

When you're furious
When you start to freeze
When you can't be touched
I feel everything
And when you despair
When you cannot breathe
When you wouldn't dare
I feel everything
When you're in ecstasy
But you're not with me
I feel everything
When you can't be touched
When you can't be loved
When you fall apart
When you have no heart
I feel everything

idina menzel - still i can t be still

Yeah, oooohh..ooohhh..oooh.
Well I don't believe in God, but she talks to me all the time
And I banished my mother, but she holds me when I cry
And I've been unfaithful, but with me he'll spend the rest of his life
And I have been forgiven
By all who I've betrayed and loved
And I have everything I want
Isn't that ever enough

Still I can't be still, Still I can't be silent
Still I can't be still, Still I can't be sane
Still I can't be Still, Still I can't be silent
Still I...... Still

Well I don't believe I'm beautiful,
but at least I have my sister's smile and,
And I, I resist the muses, but they sing to me in exile
And destiny's not deffining, but it hushed me like a child
And every time I feel as though I'm closer to the eye,
Cause, norm winds blow, I run inside and now I feel revined

Still I can't be still, still I can't be silent
Still I can't be still, still I can't be sane
Still I can't be still, I can't be silent
Still I...... Still

Ensensational peace, are my quests for,
for true serenity... yeah...
No matter how hard the rain's dispersed, the thirst is never ending
No matter how many friends or angel's they send down to take me away
They can't make it okay,
They can't make it okay

hhmm... And everytime I feel as though I'm closer to the eye
Those norm winds blow, I run inside, though I feel revined
Yes eveytime I feel as though I'm closer to the eye
Those norm winds blow, I run inside, even though I feel revined
I don't believe I'm beautiful, at least I've got my sister's smile
And I resist the muses, but they sing to me still....
Destiny is Deffining
And I...., I......, I......., I......, I.........., don't believe I'm beautiful, no no no...
And I still, I don't believe I beautiful......
(Background: Still I can't be, Still I can't be, Still I can't be.... *until fade*)

idina menzel - brave

I don't know
Just where i'm going
And tomorrow
It's a
Little overwhelming
And the air is cold
And i'm not
The same anymore
I've been running
In your direction
For too long now
I've lost
My own reflection
And I can't look down
If you're not there
To catch me when I fall

If this is the moment
I stand here on my own
If this is
My right of passage
That somehow
Leads me home
I might be afraid
But it's my turn
To be brave
If this
Is the last chance
Before we say goodbye
At least
It's the first day
Of the rest of my life
I can't be afraid
'Cause it's my turn
To be brave

All along
All I ever wanted
Was to be the light
When your life
Was daunting
Bbut i can't see mine
When I feel as though
You're pushing me away
Well, whose to blame?
Are we making
The right choices?
'Cause we can't be sure
If we're hearing
Our own voices
As we close the door
Even though
We are so desperate
To stay

If this is the moment
I stand here on my own

If this is
My right of passage
That somehow
Leads me home
I might be afraid
But it's my turn
To be brave
If this
Is the last chance
Before we say goodbye
At least
It's the first day
Of the rest of my life
I can't be afraid
'Cause it's my turn
To be brave

And I might still cry
And I might still bleed
These thorns in my side
This heart on my sleeve
And lightning may strike
This ground at my feet
And I might still crash
but I still beleive

This is the moment
I stand here all alone
With everything
I have inside
Everything I own
I might be afraid
But it's my turn
To be brave

If this
Is the last time
Before we say goodbye
At least
It's the first day
Of the rest of my life
I can't be afraid
It's my turn
To be brave

idina menzel - better to have loved

Better to have loved
Ohhhhh
Better to have loved

Oooooooh
If the sun
Went down tomorrow
And never came back
And the city went quiet
And we fade to black
Well i won't have
A single regret
And i wouldn't trade
A thing
'Cause I never knew
I could feel what
I feel inside of me

Chorus:
Better to have loved
Than never loved at all
Better to have dreamed
Than never taken the fall
Better to have held you
And let you in
Than never to have
Touched your skin
Better to have hurt
And screamed and cried
Fallen to the Earth
For a trip to the sky
Better to have loved
You

I knew all the time
I was taking a chance
When I stand there
At the edge of a cliff
And no one
Was holding my hand
Well the wind blew strong
And the clouds
Rolled in and
I felt us
Lift off the ground
Yes, I beared my soul
And I dared to go knowing
One day you might
Let me down, oh

(Chorus)

I gave you everything
But you have said goodbye
Ohhh, said goodbye

Better to have loved
Than never loved at all
Better to have dreamed
Than never taken the fall
Better to have held you
And let you in
Than never to have
Touched your skin
Better to have hurt
And screamed and cried
Fallen to the Earth
For a trip to the sky
Better to have loved
(Better to have loved)
Better to have loved
(Better to have loved)
You

Ooohhhh

idina menzel - baby it s cold outside

I really can't stay
(But baby, it's cold outside)
I've got to go away
(But baby, it's cold outside)

This evening has been
(Been hoping that you'd drop in)
So very nice
(I'll hold your hands, they're just like ice)

My mother will start to worry
(Beautiful, what's your hurry?)
My father will be pacing the floor
(Listen to the fireplace roar)

So really I'd better scurry
(Beautiful, please don't hurry)
But maybe just a half a drink more
(Put some records on while I pour)

The neighbors might think
(Baby, it's bad out there)
Say, what's in this drink?
(No cabs to be had out there)

I wish I knew how
(Your eyes are like starlight)
To break this spell
(I'll take your hat, your hair looks swell)

I ought to say no, no, no, sir
(Mind if I move in closer?)
At least I'm gonna say that I tried
(What's the sense in hurting my pride?)

I really can't stay
(Baby, don't hold out)
Oh, but it's cold outside(both)

I simply must go
(But baby, it's cold outside)
The answer is no
(But baby, it's cold outside)

This welcome has been
(How lucky that you dropped in)
So nice and warm
(Look out the window at that storm)

My sister will be suspicious
(Gosh, your lips look delicious)
My brother will be there at the door
(Waves upon a tropical shore)

My maiden aunt's mind is vicious
(Ooh, your lips are delicious)
But maybe just a cigarette more
(Never such a blizzard before)

I've got to get home
(But baby, you'll freeze out there)
Say, lend me your coat
(It's up to your knees out there)

You've really been grand
(I thrill when you touch my hand)
But don't you see
(How can you do this thing to me?)

There's bound to be talk tomorrow
(Think of my life long sorrow)
At least there will be plenty implied
(If you caught pneumonia and died)

I really can't stay
(Get over that hold out)
Baby, it's cold (both)
Baby it's cold outside (both)

Spoken:
Okay fine, just another drink *laughs*
(That took a lot of convincing)

idina menzel - always starting over

In my life
I never though I'd get a second chance
I thought I was done
Then I met you
No, I never dreamed I could learn how to love again
I placed my bet
And you came through
I somehow still lost
I somehow always do
This time feels new

Thank you for finding me
And thank you for the care
And fuck you for making me
Think that this life might be fair
You promised to love me
A promise you've kept
And I wont be sorry that
You said to leap and I leapt

I won't regret
What I did then
Though it hurts more than I
Could imagine back when
All the same even so
I would love you all over again

Am I always starting over
In a brand new story
Am I always back at one
After all I've done
'Cause I've burned all of my bridges
And learned every last lesson too
So how can I start new?

I'll love our children
Both fiercely and well
When they ask about you
Oh lordy the stories I'll tell
No, I cant just crumble
And I never will
I've already wasted
Too much of my life holding still

Say that its fate
Say its foretold
I'm through with fighting
And I'm much too old
What the gods have to give
I'll take and I'll live anymore

If we're always starting over
Every brand new morning
Then we're always starting out
With the end in doubt
'Cause we'll cross every last river
And climb every last hill to climb
We'll still start new each time

All that has happened is happening now
All that might happen is here some how
All of the choices that made me me
All of the accidents yet to be

All that's ahead
And all that's behind
It's all in the moment
I've made up my mind
And know in my heart
And start
And I'll start

Cause we're always starting over
Every life we're living
Yes, we're always just awake
Every step we take
And my love, our life is over
But love, I'll make you one last vow
To start over
And over
And over
Somehow
My new life starts right now

idina menzel - bitter core

Fair warning, I'm no walk in the park
I'm just sayin', I'm all broken apart
And I know you think you love me
But I've shown you only little bits and pieces

And my story
Breaks your heart in a way
And I worry
When you tell me you'll stay
Cause you're in way over your head
And I never wanna regret this feeling
Just so revealing

Love me with my crown on the floor
My wings broken off
One eye on the door
I got this crooked halo
And walls made of thorns
Surrounding my heart
But crying for more
If you're gonna love me
Won't you love me to the bitter core

Believe me
I don't want you to go
I'm not leaving
I just need you to know
That sometimes I just lose it
And it's not that you deserve it
Trust me
It's all nothing, baby

Won't you love me with my crown on the floor
My wings broken off
One eye on the door
I got this crooked halo
And walls made of thorns
Surrounding my heart
But crying for more
If you're gonna love me
Won't you love me to the bitter core

And I'm no queen
I don't pretend to be
And I messed up royally
So, if it's meant to be

Love me with my crown on the floor
My wings broken off
One eye on the door
I got this crooked halo
And walls made of thorns
Surrounding my heart
But crying for more
If you're gonna love me
Won't you love me to the bitter core
(Love me)
Please love me to the bitter core
(Love me)
Please love me to the bitter core

idina menzel - blind

You say I'm a mess
I call it the truth
You say I'm a wreck
And I don't know what to do about you
Don't need to read your mind
Cause I know what you think about me
We wasted too much time
I guess I unravel slowly
And I was never kind
Or good enough for you

But you were blind

Ooh

See what you wanna see
You never found the heart of me
So you just said goodbye

Saw a little boy
Taking on the world
Bloking all the noise
Running from what hurt the most
But I believes in you
Kept you close you never noticed
No matter what I do
Can't forgive you,can't forget

Say I was never kindo
Or good enough for you
But you were blind

Oohh

See what you wanna see
Yoou never found the heart of me
So you just said goodbye

Never, ever, ever gonna let back inside my head
Cause know I'm not afraid to say the words I always wish I said
No, no, no, no, no

Never, ever, ever gonna let you have this piece of me thats left

Never, ever, ever gonna let back inside my head

Cause I was always kind
And good enough for you
But you were blind

Oohh

See what you wanna see
Yoou never found the heart of me

And know I say goodbye

idina menzel - cake

One man's drama is another man's dream
One man's toture is another man's treat
One man's trophy is another's mistake
One man's poison is another man's cake
I'm another man's cake

Listen up
I can thank you for
For believing I was trouble
I can thank you for
The bitterness you showed me
I can thank you for
The freedom that I didn't ask for
Roses and thorns
Steel in my smile

One man's drama is another man's dream
One man's toture is another man's treat
One man's trophy is another's mistake
One man's poison is another man's cake
Yeah, I'm another man's cake

See he treats me like
I'm a beautiful disaster
And he treats me like
I'm all he's ever asked for
See beauty's in the eyes
The eyes of the beholder
Silver linings
[ain't everything I after?]

One man's drama is another man's dream
One man's toture is another man's treat
One man's trophy is another's mistake
One man's poison is another man's cake
Yeah, I'm another man's cake
I'm another man's cake

I'm hard to handle, well
It's not a crime
I'm hard to handle it
A state of mind
To each his own, you hear?
He thinks I'm fine
Baby, let's face it I've wasted your time

One man's drama is another man's dream
(oh my)
One man's toture is another man's treat
(is another mistake)
One man's trophy is another's mistake
One man's poison is another man's cake
Yeah, I'm another man's cake
(I'm another man
I'm another man's cake)
I'm another man's cake
