Playlist Jp Cooper

jp cooper - a little while longer

You're the only one that keeps me inspired
I just want to be all you desire
Won't you come and take a seat by my fire

And I know
If you're here tonight I'll ask you to stay
Just a little while longer
Just a little while longer, I won't tell no one
Tell no one

If I'm not mistaken, I don't see you anymore
And if my heart ain't breaking
Then why'd it lead me to your door
And all this time we're taking to figure out what's wrong

All I know, is if you're here tonight
I'll ask you to stay just a little while longer
Just a little while longer
I won't tell no one
Tell no one

Now I might not see
See the things I wanna see
But life it goes on

You know I've done some talking
Done some talking with myself
And I can do strong

But darling you know there's still a part of me
that's left feeling alone

And he still wants you to stay
Just a little while longer
Just a little while longer
I won't tell no one
Tell no one

jp cooper - birthday

I'll be at something
At something bubbling
You was a fun thing
Ain't nothing troubling
I had the spring in my step
Like walking on trampolines
These days I'm looking back
But there's no sense in that
Searching for somebody new
Who can move me like you is a hopeless task
'Cause I got these chains on my feet
And everybody I'll be

[Chorus]
Ain't got nothing on you
If it was my birthday
I'd be opening presents
And hoping to have it from you
'Cause you always make it better
They've got nothing on you
If it was my birthday
I'd be blowing out candles
And wishing for someone like you
One dance no "you's"

Nothing is possible
Now that I'm on my own
And if I don't do it for you
Then I just don't know how to do anything
Heads under water again
But I ain't no submarine
Trying to come up again
Heading now with my friends
But I got these chains on my feet
And everybody I meet

[Chorus]
Ain't got nothing on you
If it was my birthday
I'd be opening presents
And hoping to have it from you
'Cause you always make it better
Baby I ain't got nothing on you
If it was my birthday
I'd be blowing out candles
And wishing for someone like you
One dance no "you's"

[Bridge]
Never knew how to say
What I feel for you
You say it's too late
You don't feel the fire
You don't hear when I say
There's nobody
They've got nothing on you
If it was my birthday
I'd be opening presents
And hoping to have it from you
'Cause you always make it better

[Chorus]
They've got nothing on you
If it was my birthday
I'd be opening presents
And hoping to have it from you
If it was my birthday
I'd be blowing out candles
And wishing for someone like you
One dance no "you's"

jp cooper - all this love

jp cooper - colour me in gold

You colour me in gold
Lips like petals on my throat
And those fingertips like paintbrush strokes
Paper boats softly float like a song we wrote

But summer comes and summer goes
You change your hair, you change your clothes
The books you read help you explore
The world that you believed in once before

You colour me in gold
Kiss the freckles on my nose
With those blood red pomegranate lips taking sips
hand on hip
Your face could launch a thousand ships

But winter comes and brings the snow
You change your job, you change your home
Still reading books about the ghost of a world
you can't be living anymore

And after all, you've been nothing but good to me
And the only way that I can pay you back
Is to daily seek those distant memories
While I'm standing next to you

So when spring time comes and blossoms grow
Come take my hand, can we expose
The hideaways, the hidden doors
the stories we believed in

(Oh, oh) the land that we both dreamed in
Once before (oh)
You colour me in gold

jp cooper - for the man i 039 ve known

When I was knee high to a grasshopper
My father said someday you'll be a man

And all the simple things I found to be confusing
I will grow to understand
Like how the songbird sings the morning in so sweetly
Fulfilling part of God's great plan
So I watched my youth unravel
as I held on to my papa's hand

Singing hallelujah for the man I've known
Singing hallelujah for the man I've known
And he's teaching me how, how to grow

Now we've seen beauty turn to ashes
But the hard times gave us hearts of gold
And we have kept a youthful spirit
While so many here amongst us have grown old
Just as the evergreen stands strong
Thorough the winter deeply rooted in the land
I have weathered many seasons
as I held onto my papa's hand

Singing hallelujah for the man I've known
Singing hallelujah for the man I've known
And he's teaching me how, how to grow

And he's teaching me how
just as the evergreen stands strong
Thorough the winter deeply rooted in the land
I have weathered many seasons
as I held onto my papa's hand

jp cooper - in the silence

I've been seeking silver linings, feeling incomplete
Singing: Oh oh I wish it didn't taste so bittersweet
So enamoured, stutter, stammered, oh my voice was broke
Like a poor man stood before the queen
I tripped over my tongue before I spoke

And though I never said it with words
There was love in the silence
Even now after all of these years
You're the light in my darkness

Used to share that feeling, dreaming
Gazing at the bedroom ceiling
Oh oh now I'm lay here wishing you'd come home

And though I never said it with words
There was love in the silence
Even now after all of these years
You're the light in my darkness
Darling please, listen close and you'll hear
There's still love in the silence
Even now after all these long years
I feel love in the quiet

And though I never said it with words
There was love in the silence
Even now after all of these years
You're the light in my darkness
Darling please, listen close and you'll hear
There's still love in the silence
Even now after all these long years
I feel love in the quiet

jp cooper - keep the quiet out

You're dreaming of a different me
You said it all, I've heard it all before
Tell me something I don't know

I'm not the opportunity I used to be
How did I wash up on your shores
Where only the prettiest things grow

And all along another disappointed, it shows
In all honesty I'm wasting in your eyes

And on and on and all along he shines as he grows
So I sing me another song to keep the quiet out
To keep the quiet out

It's not the way the whole world sees you
You tell yourself, pick yourself up off the floor
'cause you're the one who's running this show

The games we play as children, they still feel the same
They can't take that from you
With that kind of love you won't grow old

And if you say that I'm not free
Well, I did slip here, I know myself too long
To sell my soul for your fool's gold

And all along another disappointed, it shows
In all honesty I'm wasted in your eyes

And on and on and all along he shines as he grows
So I sing me another song to keep the quiet out

And on and on and all along he shines as he grows
So I sing me another song to keep the quiet out

So don't waste your time fighting
'cause you can't put out this light
And this soul I'm writing
It ain't always a pretty sight

It ain't always a pretty sight
It ain't always, oh
It ain't always a pretty sight

And all along another disappointed, it shows
In all honesty I'm wasted in your eyes

And on and on and all along he shines as he grows
So I sing me another song to keep the quiet out

And on and on and all along the silence, it grows
So I sing me another song to keep the quiet out
To keep the quiet out

jp cooper - september song

Our love was stronger than lightning
Soft as the cotton you lie in
Times we got hot like an iron
You and I
Our hearts had never been broken
We were so innocent darling
We used to talk 'til the morning
You and I

We had that mixtape on every weekend
Had it repeating, had it repeating

You were my September Song, summer lasted too long
Time moves so slowly, when you?re only fifteen
You were my September Song, tell me where have you gone
Do you remember me, we were only fifteen
And I, I remember the chorus
They were singing it for us
You were my September song
Tell me where have you gone
Do you remember me, we were only fifteen

Sometimes I think that I see your
Face in the strangest of places
Down on the underground station
Passing by
I get a mad sense of danger
Feel like my heart couldn't take it
'Cause if we met we'd be strangers
You and I

Still, I play that mixtape every weekend
Got it repeating, got it repeating

You were my September song, summer lasted too long
Time moves so slowly, when you?re only fifteen
You were my September song, tell me where have you gone?
Do you remember me, we were only fifteen
And I, I remember the chorus
They were singing it for us
I hear that September song
That I'm singing along
Thinking about you and me
Oh, what a melody

And as the years go by
You will still be my, be my
(September song)
You are my
(September song)

You were my September song, summer lasted too long
Time moves so slowly, when you?re only fifteen
You were my September song, tell me where have you gone
Do you remember me, we were only fifteen
And I, I remember the chorus
They were singing it for us
You were my September song
I remember the chorus
They were singing it for us

jp cooper - she 039 s on my mind

I've seen a lot of pretty faces
Ain't nobody like you
And I've never had a love like
The one we knew
Tell me why I had to play the clown
Always messing around
Can't stop thinking how I let you down, down, down

She's on my mind, she's on my mind
She's on my mind, she's on my mind
I can't sleep at night
'Cause she ain't by my side
She's on my mind, she's on my mind
She's on my mind, she's on my mind
I can't sleep at night
'Cause she ain't by my side

She's on my mind, she's on my mind
She's on my mind, she's on my mind
I can't sleep at night
'Cause she ain't by my side
She's on my mind, she's on my mind
She's on my mind, she's on my mind
I can't sleep at night
'Cause she ain't by my side

My friends say that she's a keeper
But I let her go
Didn't know how much I need her
'Til I was on my own
I've been drinking but the truth won't drown
No, the truth won't drown
Bad medicine won't go down, down, down

She's on my mind, she's on my mind
She's on my mind, she's on my mind
I can't sleep at night
'Cause she ain't by my side
She's on my mind, she's on my mind
She's on my mind, she's on my mind
I can't sleep at night
'Cause she ain't by my side

She's on my mind, she's on my mind
She's on my mind, she's on my mind
I can't sleep at night
'Cause she ain't by my side
She's on my mind, she's on my mind
She's on my mind, she's on my mind
I can't sleep at night
'Cause she ain't by my side

Ooh, the cover's over
If I could dream I'd hold you
Can't stop thinking
Am I even on your mind?
Now, the nights are colder
Miss you on my shoulder
Miss you there on my cheek
Every night

She's on my mind, she's on my mind
She's on my mind, she's on my mind
I can't sleep at night
'Cause she ain't by my side
She's on my mind, she's on my mind
She's on my mind, she's on my mind
I can't sleep at night
'Cause she ain't by my side

She's on my mind, she's on my mind
She's on my mind, she's on my mind
I can't sleep at night
'Cause she ain't by my side
She's on my mind, she's on my mind
She's on my mind, she's on my mind
I can't sleep at night
'Cause she ain't by my side

She's on my mind, she's on my mind
She's on my mind, she's on my mind
I can't sleep at night
'Cause she ain't by my side

jp cooper - the only reason

It started out in spring time
Against the golden skyline
You spoke to me at last
It started out intensely and with it all my senses
I knew. I'm sure I knew

The only reason God gave me eyes was to see you
The only reason God gave me ears was to hear your voice
Say, I will al... I will always love you
And when the wind gets cold
I'll wrap my arms around you

We shared our dreams, endeavors and many things
We never could tell a soul before
I saw you smile through the tears that fell to the floor
I'm sure I knew

The only reason God gave me hands was to hold you
And he finely tuned the drums in my ears just to hear your voice
Say, I will al... I will always love you
And when the wind gets cold
I'll build a fire to warm your hands
I'll wrap my arms around you

And I won't let shadows scare you in the stillness of the night
Be the cooling voice to tell you everything is alright
And when darkness tries to drag you down
There will be a light
And no wind and no storm and no hatred can hide it
I'll help you find it

And I will al... I will always love you
And when the wind gets cold
I'll wrap my arms around you
OOh and I will al... I will always love you
And when the wind gets cold
I'll build a fire to warm your hands
I'll wrap my arms around you?

jp cooper - we were raised under grey skies

We were raised under Grey skies
But you'll never hear us complain
Oh, and father led with examples
Of how to draw beauty from pain
So I found a thousand springtimes in her eyes
And I learned to play games in the rain

Oh, when you left us you didn't really go
I know you're watching me from my head to my toes
And I will not go without, I won't walk without you, no
And truth be told, everybody knows
You put the food on my plate
and you gave me my clothes
And I will not go without, I won't walk without you, no

I find the touch of your hand in the breeze
And the light of your smile in sun rays
You should know I hear the sound of your voice in music
So I speak with you every day

Oh, when you left us you didn't really go
I know you're watching me from my head to my toes
And I will not go without, I won't walk without you, no
And truth be told, everybody knows
You put the food on my plate
and you gave me my clothes
And I will not go without, I won't walk without you, no, ooh

We have overcome 'cause of what you've done
And it's plain to see that you're here with me
We have overcome 'cause of what you've done
And it's plain to see that you're here with me, oh, no

When you left us you didn't really go
I know you're watching me from my head to my toes
And I will not go without, I won't walk without you, no
And truth be told, everybody knows
You put the food on my plate
and you gave me my clothes
And I will not go without, I won't walk without you, no
When you left us you didn't really go
I know you're watching me from my head to my toes
And I will not go without, I won't walk without you, no
And truth be told, everybody knows
You put the food on my plate
and you gave me my clothes
And I will not go, I won't walk

jp cooper - bits and pieces

I was in bits
I was in pieces
Covered in silence and concrete
People walked by
No one could hear me
Nobody knows what's underneath

Somehow, you found me
And now you're patching up the cracks and holes
Filling in the gaps with gold
You said you're never givin' up on me
I see your fingerprints around my soul
Filling in the gaps with gold
You said you're never givin' up on me

You built a home
You built a home
You built a home from the pieces of a broken man
You built a home
You built a home
You built a home from the pieces of a broken man

I was bent down
Under my feelings
I been down here since the roof caved in
Crying out loud
Kicking and screaming
I'd given up until you walked in

Somehow, you found me
And now you're patching up the cracks and holes
Filling in the gaps with gold
You said you're never givin' up on me
I see your fingerprints around my soul
Filling in the gaps with gold
You said you're never givin' up on me

You built a home (Yes, you did)
You built a home (Built it up)
You built a home from the pieces of a broken man (Oh)
You built a home (Yes, you did)
You built a home (From the pieces)
You built a home from the pieces of a broken man

(You built a home)
Patching up the cracks and holes
(Yes, you did)
(You built a home)
Filling in the gaps with gold
(From the pieces)
(You built a home)
You said you're never givin' up on me
Oh
I see your fingerprints around my soul
(You built a home)
(Yes, you did)
(You built a home)
Filling in the gaps with gold
(From the pieces)
(You built a home)
You said you're never givin' up on me

jp cooper - in these arms

I watch you puttin' on your makeup
Sometimes I can't believe my luck, hey
Sun's settin' through the curtains
And darling you look perfect, tonight
I just wanna hold you
Wish I could freeze frame the moment, hey
Everything is golden
As the lights go down, it's only you
'Cause this is like a movie
The very last scene, baby just and me
I'm, askin' softly, is this love, oh?

In these arms, I can dance
But your heartbeats are cold, rhythm
Unforgiven
Got a little freedom in these arms
In these arms, I feel love
I'm survivin' this ain't livin'
It's a prison, got no freedom
Up in these arms
In these arms

I watch you puttin' on your makeup
Ain't no shy, this love this is for grown ups, hey
Lately you don't really say much
You got me thinkin' crazy, no I'm cool, you're fine
We don't got no problems
Sweep them under the rug until the next time, hey
Everything is golden
And darling you look perfect tonight
I can never leave you
Even when you're actin' like a diva, I need you
But I've been thinkin' lately
Is this love, oh?

In these arms, I can dance
But your heartbeats are cold, rhythm (Oh-oh)
Unforgiven (Oh-oh)
Got a little freedom in these arms
In these arms, I feel love (Oh)
I'm survivin' this ain't livin'
It's a prison, got no freedom
Got no freedom, in these arms

Oh this prison hasn't got no bars
But freedom never felt so far
I ain't never gonna save my heart
(I ain't never gonna save my heart) , hey
No this prison hasn't got no bars
But freedom never felt so far
I ain't never gonna save my heart
(I ain't never gonna save my heart)
