Playlist Javier Colon

javier colon - come through for you

[Verse 1:]
I'm so sick and tired of making excuses
For why things are how they are
I know I'm the reason but I hope you're not thinkin
That I can't turn this boat around.
Now in every love story there are moments of glory
And times when "I tried" just wont do
You've lost all your trust now you dont expect much
From me but I'm gonna prove this to you
Oh that I'm gonna come through for you

Lalala la la la, lalala la la la la la la, lalala la la la

Take my on sister song and try to believe in this something
Cuz its something worth holding on to
I know you've waited so long but
Try to believe in this something cuz it
Wouldn't mean much without you
And I promise someday I'll come through.

[Verse 2:]
Steve Perry once said "lovin a music man
It ain't all that is supposed to be"
After all of these years and a river of tears
I'd have to say you agree
You say you've sacrificed spending years of your life
Waiting on promises and maybes
It couldn't be more true all the pain's been on you
And now its time to give some to me
And I'll take it on willingly

Lalala la la la, lalala la la la la la la, lalala la la la

Take my on sister song and try to believe in this something
Cuz its something worth holding on to
I know you've waited so long but
Try to believe in this something cuz it
Wouldn't mean much without you
And I promise someday I'll come through.

Lalala la la la, lalala la la la la la la, lalala la la la
Lalala la la la, lalala la la la la la la, laaaaaaaaaa

Take my on sister song and try to believe in this something
Cuz its something worth holding on to
I know you've waited so long but
Try to believe in this something cuz it
Wouldn't mean much without you
And I promise someday I'll come through.
You're the moon I'm the sun and I'll be
The one to come runnin and the one you come runnin to
Girl just say I'm the one say you'll hold open that window
And let me come through and I promise I'll
Come through for you

Lalala la la la, lalala la la la la la la, lalala la la la

javier colon - echo

I know its not easy
When I tell you I am leaving
From the tears in our eyes we both know that your not coming with me
Its not the first time
And it wont be the last
Just make sure you tell my baby girls that their dad will be back
We'll try to stay close
Though its so far away
And when you open your eyes and see what I am seeing
Another sunrise
And we're still here breathing
For better or worse
These are the lives that we are leading
But our loves like an echo that keeps on repeating
That keeps on repeating
That keeps on repeating
By this time tomorrow
I'll be home in west hartford
Its like time never stopped and i am back in the place where We started
So lets go to the movies
Take the kids out to play
But whatever we do lets make it last cause we've just got today
We'll try to stay close
Though its so far away
Cause when you open your eyes and see what I am seeing
Another sunrise
And we're still here breathing
For better or worse
These are the lives that we are leading
But our loves like an echo that keeps on repeating
And when you open your eyes and see what I am seeing
Another sunrise
And we're still here breathing
For better or worse
These are the lives that we are leading
But our loves like an echo that keeps on repeating
That keeps on repeating
That keeps on repeating
That keeps on repeating
That keeps on repeating

javier colon - 1 000 lights

Oh...
There's line, there's a road that we're walkin'
Different paths to the point where they're crossin'
But each step is one step closer to you
Yeah

As the sun says goodbye in the distance
A thousand lights light the sky like they missed us
Like each one is lighting my way to you
Yeah

This love is taking me over
It's making me feel something
That I don't understand

This heart it couldn't be faster
Tonight a thousand lights
They shine, shine for us

I'm gon' fight all my best when I'm with you
Some people shine like the sun when they see you
Ain't nothing better than holding your hand
That's what I was made to do

Every turn, every time that we just might break
When we're walking the line between love and hate

I can finally tune in out, choose love love love

This love is taking me over
It's making me feel something
That I don't understand

This heart it couldn't be faster
Tonight a thousand lights
They shine, shine for us

(They shine shine)
They shine for us
(They shine shine)
They shine for us
(They shine shine)
They shine for us

This love is taking me over

This love is taking me over
It's making me feel something
That I don't understand

This heart it couldn't be faster
Tonight a thousand lights
They shine, shine for us

javier colon - as long as we got love

Remember how it used to be
It was only you and me
We didn't worry much about anything
And not a dollar to my name
But you loved me just the same
Yeah i felt like i had everything

Holding my hand, walk down the beach
I would pretend that you were my queen
Even though our castle is only in the sand, yeah

Girl we've got something that keeps reminding us
We don't need nothing as long as we got love
Believe it, i mean it, i know we'll always have enough
As long as we got love, love
As long as we got love
As long as we got love

Blink your eyes and here we are
Got a dog and bought a car
Little footsteps down the hall
Life's responsabilities
Sometimes makes it hard to see
The million things about you i adore

But the castles are now more than just sand
So let the rain fall cause we are gonna stay

Boy we've got something that keeps reminding us
We don't need nothing as long as we got love
Believe it, i mean it, i know we'll always have enough
As long as we got love, love
As long as we got love, love
As long as we got love

At the end of the day the city is asleep
I'm wide awake with the girl of my dreams
And all that we've got is the only thing i'll ever need

Boy we've got something that keeps reminding us
We don't need nothing... oh

Girl we've got something that keeps reminding us
We don't need nothing as long as we got love
Believe it, i mean it, i know we'll always have enough
As long as we got love, love
As long as we got love, love
As long as we got love, love
As long as we got love, love
As long as we got love

javier colon - happy sinner

I'm a lucky man
Cuz I don't have to live forever
I'm an also ran
In the race to get to heaven

But I've got a smile on my face
Cuz there's blood in my veins
And life doesn't get any better
For this happy sinner

If love's to be the death of me
Then I won't cry
And if lying with you is blasphemy
I'll pay the price

Cuz my soul's at rest
With my head on your chest
It's the closest to heaven that I'll ever get
And I hope you'll give in to your happy sinner tonight

Like my father said
Son, the best of us are failures
So get it through your head
Nobody's gonna come to save us

And though we made some mistakes
And we share the same face
Can't blame him for my misbehavior
I'm just a happy sinner

And if love's to be the death of me
Then I won't cry
And if lying with you is blasphemy
I'll pay the price

Cuz my soul's at rest
With my head on your chest
It's the closest to heaven that I'll ever get
And I hope you'll give in to this happy sinner

I'm down on my knees
And the sword of Damocles
Is over my head
It's over my head

And God knows
I'm taking liberties
Where angels won't tread
Where angels won't tread

If love's to be the death of me
Then I won't cry
And if lying with you is blasphemy
I'll pay the price

Cuz my soul's at rest
With my head on your chest
It's the closest to heaven that I'll ever get
And I hope you'll give in to this happy sinner tonight

Yes I hope you'll give in to this happy sinner tonight

javier colon - how many people can say that

we had a couple hard nights
we had a couple long fights
we had a couple bumps but we're still alright

we made a couple wrong turns
we lived as much as we learned
we made through the fire and we didn't get burned

oh oh oh
that feeling deep inside
it only multiplies
when I'm thinking about you

oh oh oh
baby after all these years
the heartache and the tears
we made it through

tell me something

how many people can say that
how many people can say that
how many people can say that
tell me something

how many people can say that
how many people can say that
how many people can say that

I drove a couple beat-up cars
you made a dollar go so far
shadows all around
but the sun still shines

I sung a couple bad notes
you made a couple bad jokes
we tell it like it is
so we gon' be fine

oh oh oh
that feeling deep inside
it only multiplies
when I'm thinking about you

oh oh oh
baby after all these years
the heartache and the tears
we made it through
tell me something
I cannot live without you
even if I try
you are the only reason I am still inspired
and nothing can change that

javier colon - life is getting better

[Verse 1:]
Little girl now don't you cry
Let the sun come dry your eyes
If you dream it you can try
And I'll always be here
Nothing is impossible
You've got wings your wonderful
Who put rocks here at the bottom, at the bottom of the sky
Hey don't you know, hey can't you feel this
Good times round the corner

[Chorus:]
Life is getting better all the time
As long as we're together everything's gonna be alright
I feel it, I see it, I know that
Life is getting better all the time

[Verse 2:]
Innocence is lost and found
Just like peace and solid ground
If you want to you can fly,
Tell me what's the view like?
If you win or if you don't
You don't have to go alone
I'll be listening, every time you sing,
Every time your heart sings
Hey don't you know,
Hey don't you feel this
Good times round the corner

[Chorus]

[Bridge:]
Cause you know what they say,
Good things come in space
To those who can wait...
Life is getting better all the time
As long as we're together, as long as we're together

[Chorus]

Life is getting better all the time

javier colon - make it in love

How would you know how far you can go
Unless you crash and burn
Throw away your heart and put it on the line, oh
Guess it depends on how much you want it
Sometimes it's easy but sometimes
If you just fall with it you'll find

If you wanna make it in love
You gotta be ready to give everything
If you wanna make it in love
You gotta take risks with your heart
It's easy to love when you've never been hurt
And it's easy to hurt when you've never been loved at all

You gotta be willing to fall
So you can make it in love
Is it smart to be vulnerable
When someone else decides if you'll be all but doubt
That's a choice, that you'll have to wait
Maybe it's not the safest thing
But do you really wanna be safe amidst the tests that come your way

If you wanna make it in love
You gotta be ready to give everything
If you wanna make it in love
You gotta take risks with your heart
It's easy to love when you've never been hurt
And it's easy to hurt when you've never been loved at all

You gotta be willing to fall
So you can make it in love
Don't say goodbye before you try
Be willing to do whatever
It's worth the time to make the climb
So you can grow together
Forget the past, this love can last
Call it a new beginning
No need to ask, 'cause I'm telling you

If you wanna make it in love
You gotta be ready to give everything
If you wanna make it in love
You gotta take risks with your heart
It's easy to love when you've never been hurt
And it's easy to hurt when you've never been loved at all
You gotta be willing to fall
So you can make it in love.

javier colon - meant to be

When I was a kid
There were movies I'd make in my mind
Visions so realistic
I'd get all worked up til I'd cry
Who would I be and what would I be like
Me as the singer with my pretty wife
I could sing with a hero
I'd lay down my life
Just to have their wanted soul so bad

I believe what's meant to be
Is meant to be
And that's just how it goes
I've been searching for what I need
I believe when I find it I'll know

I was 18, my very first month
Away from home
Then I caught your attention
When you heard me sing that first note
Now I would be lying if I didn't say
That I saw you coming a mile away
I fell in love with you that very day
Just to have that I wanted so bad

I believe what's meant to be
Is meant to be
And that's just how it goes
I've been searching for what I need
I believe when I find it I'll know

Now I can't say I'm happy
With all of the choices I've made
I've been chewed up and spit out
Seen sorrow I'll take to my grave
There were some months when
The rent came up short
And some of my family's not here anymore

javier colon - my little girl

"My Little Girl"

(I can hear that)
You can hear who?
Can you hear dada?
Can you say daddy?
(Daddy)
It's daddy
(It's daddy)

I was never the one to be on time
With anything in my life
And that suits me just fine heeeey
I was just having fun when I met my wife
Waited ten years and now we're having a baby
She said it's about time

But when my phone rang
My heart stopped beating
When she said â??Baby I think it's timeâ?

Get out of my way
I'm coming through
I'm about to meet my little girl
Her momma just called
Said we're waiting on you
She's about to make her way into this world

Now I gotta tell you
That's there's nothing better
Her cry is the sweetest thing I've heard
That's my little girl

Her first school play she's got the lead
I'm proud as any daddy would be
She must take after me
Heeeey

Now my flights delayed and it's almost three
Why does this always happen to me?
Don't they know I've got somewhere to be

From plane to highway
Traffics going sideways
Finally pull up and run inside

Get out of my way
I'm coming through
Don't you know that that's my little girl
She's walking on stage
Singing debut
And I wouldn't miss it for the world

I ran through the lobby
And nothing could stop me
Just in time to hear the single sweetest voice I've heard
That's my little girl

Now she's all grown up got her own two boys
Married a real good guy
She loves being a mom and wife

She asks me if I would stop by
Her husbands outta town the kids are driving her crazy
I said â??I know what that's likeâ?

But as I turned in
To the driveway
I can't believe my eyes
Smoke flames sirens
The kids were outside crying
The oldest said â??grandpa mommy's still insideâ?

Ohhh get out my way
I'm coming though
Don't you know that that's my little girl
Neighbor said â??no, nothing u can doâ?
But he's not a dad so he don't know
That I gotta get in there
She's gotta be somewhere
If I die tryin I don't care
Cause that's my little girl
(my baby girl)
That's my baby girl

I was never the one to be on time
For anything in my life
But that wasn't me this time
(I love you baby)
(I love you daddy)

javier colon - ok here s the truth

There's a look on her face
She's starting to master
As she carefully closes the door
She's been coming home late
With pre-packaged answers
To questions she tries to avoid

Now she's talking too fast
And I just have to ask
Baby what's all the cloak and dagger for

Okay here's the truth
I ran out of gas
And I didn't call cause I thought you'd be mad
So I started to walk
Took an hour and a half
To get off that highway and fill up that can
I was hoping that you'd understand

She's getting good with the lies
So good that you wonder
If the rabbit in the hat tricks for real
She turns water into wine
And I'd almost believe her
If her eyes just for once could keep still

Now my patience wears thin
Cause she's late once again
Honey tell me what delayed you this time

Okay here's the truth
It's gonna sound kind of strange
But I took a new way home from work for a change
It started out fine
Till I got to Route 9
When an hour the wrong way before I realized
I'm sorry I ruined all your plans
I was hoping that you'd understand

And there watching her secretly talking
It is just about all I can bear
Now I know why she's been wearing
More make-up and caring
So much about changing her hair

The telephone vibrates on the table again
Another damn private call coming through
Now she's visibly shaking
And I just feel like taking that phone
Throwing it clear across the room

She answers "hello"
A mans voice I don't know
Says "it's time that you tell him the truth"
I can't take this no more
Honey I'm out the door
No, I won't relax
I got my suitcase all packed
What she said next stopped me dead in my tracks

Okay here's the truth
It's not what you think
The man that you heard is head of oncology
I'm sorry I lied
To you all of those times
I didn't know how to tell you
I might not survive
Okay there's the truth
I've got six months to live
Only wanted what's best for you and the kids
I promise I'll fight
With all of my might
But if I lose this battle
I lived a good life
So baby just please hold my hand
And tell me that you understand

javier colon - raise your hand

Tired of emotions weighing me down
The fight is all gone from your eyes
The dark skies will open but you're gonna drown
Waiting for lightning to strike

So just look around
And you'll see yourself
And faces you don't even know
And you'll find out that you're not alone

If you've ever felt like you're falling apart
Raise your hand, raise your hand
And if you've ever felt that life's breaking your heart
Raise your hand, raise your hand
Everyone bleeds, and everyone hurts
But if you think you're alone, it just makes it worse
So if you've ever felt like you're falling apart
Raise your hand, raise your hand

Frayed at the edges
Trying to take cover
Under the mess that we made
Through all of this madness
The damage we suffered is the one thing we can't escape

So just look around
And you'll see yourself
And faces you don't even know
And you'll find out that you're not alone

If you've ever felt like you're falling apart
Raise your hand, raise your hand
And if you've ever felt that life's breaking your heart
Raise your hand, raise your hand
Everyone bleeds, and everyone hurts
But if you think you're alone, it just makes it worse
So if you've ever felt like you're falling apart
Raise your hand, raise your hand

Ohhh

I know that you think that the world just forgets
But look to the sky, and you'll see hand silhouettes
Ohh

If you've ever felt like you're falling apart
Raise your hand, raise your hand
And if you've ever felt that life's breaking your heart
Raise your hand, raise your hand
Everyone bleeds, and everyone hurts
But if you think you're alone, it just makes it worse
So if you've ever felt like you're falling apart
Raise your hand, raise your hand

javier colon - runnin

She is the morning sun she is the gravity
the kind of girl that makes the world stop its routine
but love is not always roses
hearts get broken
and when my guard is down i know that she will leave
when will i see
that she just keeps on running
like the end of the world is coming
i, i don't know whats got her so afraid
but i, but i know shes gotta get away
cuz she just keeps on running,
running through my mind,
running through my mind
again she left wont hold my breath for her return
no man can count all the bridges that shes burned
but i just keep on chasing, hoping, waiting
ill always fight this war cuz lovers n
ever learn ill never learn
that she just keeps on running
like the end of the world is coming

i, i don't know whats got her so afraid
but i, but i know shes gotta get away
cuz she just keeps on running,
running through my mind,
running through my mind
and if you just stay
ill do whatever it takes to love you more
( don't you know i will love you more)
and if you slow down for a minute
this could be the begining
of what you've been searching for
but you just keep on running
like the end of the world is coming
i, i don't know whats got you so afraid
but i, but i know you gotta get away
but she just keeps on running,
running through my mind,
running through my mind
running through running through my mind
running through running through my mind
running through running through my mind
but you just keep on running

javier colon - stand up

When I was a young boy growing up in school
There was a lot of confusion so many guides and rules
Faced with a dilemma and being told what to do
That's when I learned to stand for something,
does it come as a surprise
that I fell, fell for you, for once I could tell what I should do

Lock this baby down, make it real here's the papers sign the deal
Find a home buy a car get a dog and there we are
so I'm gonna stand up and man up, no stuttering and I won't stall
I'm gonna stand up and man up, the one time its cool to fall
In love, I'm falling in love
and please don't pick me up

We decided to get married, a little bit too soon
People told us we were crazy, cuz we were still in school
Too young too fall in love, but we followed through
and it wasn't all for nothing
so they shouldn't be surprised
that I fell, fell for you and for twice I could tell what I should do

Lock this baby up, make it real here's the papers sign the deal
Find a home buy a car buy a dog and there we are
so I'm gonna stand up and man up,
throw my doubts up against the wall
I'm gonna stand up and man up, the one time its cool to fall
In love, Ohh I'm in love
but please don't pick me up

You'd never leave me on the side of the road
or down on the floor like your clothes
Driveway with the water hose
anywhere the water flows that's perfect how it goes
Just like a penny on the street or dying
when you see something sweet.
The most beautiful picture on the wall ?That's you

Cuz when I fell, I fell for you
and for the thrice time I could tell what I needed to do

Lock this baby down make it real
where's the papers sign the deal

Find a home buy a car buy a dog and there we are
So I'm gone stand up and man up, I promise not to drop the ball
I'm gonna stand up and man up, the one time its cool to fall
So I'm gonna stand up and man up, who cares how it looks to ya'll
I'm gonna stand up and man up, the one time its cool to fall
In Love, ooh in love
Hey but please don't pick me up.

javier colon - stitch by stitch

Blue and black,
Heart torn out.
You uncover what's beneath my skin.
There and back.
There's no doubt your touch is my medicine.
I'll be ok, cause you heal me.

And i give you all my pieces broken.
In your hands there is nothing that you can't fix.
My heart is frayed, my scars are open.
So put me back together now stitch by stitch.
Put me back together now stitch by stitch.

What you say, without words
Resuscitates what was numb inside.
So repair me every thread of me.
Cause you're bringing me back to life.
I'll be ok cause you heal me.

And i give you all my pieces broken.
In your hands there's nothin' that you can't fix.
My heart is frayed, my scars are open.
So put me back together now stitch by stitch.

I'm still afraid of fallin'
Some how its takin' over me.
Don't ever let me let it go.

There and back.
There's no doubt your touch makes me whole again.

And i give you all my pieces broken
In your hands there's nothing that you can't fix
My heart is frayed, my scars are open
Put me back together now stitch by stitch
Put me back together now stitch by stitch,
So put me back together now stitch by stitch.
