David Archuleta - Parachutes Airplanes


There's something crazy about this day

Like I'm walking on a trampoline

I couldn't get much higher

 

So if I asked you, would you stay?

Cause you remind me of a ballerina dancing on a wire

And I don't ever wanna say goodbye

I just wanna steal this moment right away from time

 

[Chorus:]

What do you say when you cant come down?

When you feel like you're 10 feet off the ground

What do you do when you're on the edge?

Now you're here and you've got me thinking about

Parachutes and airplanes

Thinking about parachutes and airplanes

Never hit the ground.. ground ground ground

 

The world's a thousand shades of blue

Like we're here in our kaleidoscope

Don't want it to be over

Like everything that's in my mind

It's here right in front of lights

You're the one who got me here

 

Cause I don't ever wanna say goodbye

I just wanna steal this moment right away from time

 

[Chorus:]

What do you say when you cant come down

When you feel like you're 10 feet off the ground

what do you do when you're on the edge

Pow you're here and you've got me thinking about

Parachutes and airplanes

Thinking about parachutes and airplanes

That never hit the ground

 

When it's shard sometimes

I just need a place to get away

Turn the world around

I'll never calm me down

Cause I don't ever wanna hit

Don't wanna hit the ground

 

Ground ground ground ground

Ground ground ground ground

 

[Chorus:]

What do you say when you cant come down

When you feel like you're 10 feet off the ground

What do you do when you're on the edge?

Now you're here and you've got me thinking about

Parachutes and airplanes

Thinking about parachutes and airplanes

 

What do you say when you cant come down

When you feel like you're 10 feet off the ground

What do you do when you're on the edge?

Now you're here, and you've got me thinking 'bout

Parachutes and airplanes

Thinking about parachutes and airplanes

That never hit the ground.. ground ground ground

 

Never hit the ground.. ground ground ground

David Archuleta - Falling Stars


When you forget me

When you don't remember my name

Not even a memory

Somewhere in the back of your brain

I won't be offended

Cause I'll always know that the day

Will come when I'm not enough to make you stay

Tell me it's not possible the way that we could break

But nothing is illogical, believe me

 

Like falling stars over your head

They've been bound to burn out, burn out

Crashing 'cause I'll never get over you, never over you

(cause) you are so beautiful, yeah

 

The world is turning, and times keep lingering on

Some maybe burning

Eventually you really gone

 

I'll always love you

Oh believe it or not

Baby that's not enough to, not enough to

Stop these falling stars over your head

They've been bound to burn out, burn out

Crashing 'cause I'll never get over you, never over you

(cause) you are so beautiful, yeah

 

When it's all said and done

I'll be just a speck in the galaxy

Floating far away by gravity

Tell me it's not possible the way that we could break

 

Like falling stars

Like crashing cars

Like falling stars over your head

They've been bound to burn out, just like

Crashing 'cause I'll never get over you, never over you, oh

(cause) you are so beautiful

You are so beautiful, yeah

David Archuleta - Who I Am


Been two hours in a taxi cab,

I'm just driving around and I'm running a tab,

But it doesn't really matter no, I'm not getting mad,

It's ok, 'cause I know where I'm going,

 

Out the window, everybody's on the phone,

At the lights are on, and they're all in the zone,

Gotta take a step back from my new ringtone,

I don't care if your friends there is calling, (ca-ca-calling)

 

Days like these,

It's hard to breathe.

I'm gonna take this moment that I'm in right now,

Stop the craziness somehow.

Leave it all behind me,

I know it's gonna find me.

I got nothing to win and I got nothing to lose,

just trying to walk in my own two shoes,

 

I'm gonna take the time now,

It's time for me to find out

Who I am

 

oh oh, oh oh

Who I am

 

Windshield's like a movie screen,

And the world outside is a big machine,

And it moves so fast I can barely think,

That's ok, 'cause I know what I'm doing,

 

Days like these,

It's hard to breathe.

I'm gonna take this moment that I'm in right now,

Stop the craziness somehow.

Leave it all behind me,

I know it's gonna find me.

I got nothing to win and I got nothing to lose,

just trying to walk in my own two shoes,

 

Gonna take the time now,

It's time for me to find out

Who I am

 

oh oh, oh oh

oh oh,

 

Sometimes,

You just know,

When to hold on, when to let go

 

Gonna take this moment that I'm in right now,

Stop the craziness somehow.

Leave it all behind me,

I know it's gonna find me.

I got nothing to win and I got nothing to lose,

just trying to walk in my own two shoes,

 

Gonna take the time now,

It's time for me to find out

Who I am

 

I got nothing to win and I got nothing to lose,

just trying to walk in my own two shoes,

 

Gonna take the time now,

It's time for me to find out

Who I am

 

oh oh, oh oh,

oh oh, oh oh,

oh oh, oh oh,

oh oh, who I am.

David Archuleta - Stomping The Roses

Wasting time just going mindless

Watching your charades

When you were younger, did it occur to you

10 years from then, you'd act the same age?

 

I cannot carry on this way

Although I've carried all your every little thing

Carry me away

 

[Chorus:]

Did you feel like stomping the roses

Smashing out all the feeling inside of them

It's bad business

The way you're stomping the roses

 

I was flipping channels on my television

And it made me feel unwell

One of those complicated soap operas

I almost felt like I was watching myself

 

I cannot carry on this way

Although I've carried all your every little thing

Carry me away

 

[Chorus:]

Did you feel like stomping the roses

Smashing out all the feeling inside of them

It's bad business

The way you're stomping the roses

Everyone knows it

 

I know I know I know I know it's over

and I know I know I know I've

Always been your token nice guy

I know that you rule your whole world

Thought I could live in it

But I just can't

 

[Chorus:]

You know you're stomping the roses

Smashing out all the feeling inside of them

It's bad business

The way you're stomping the roses

Everyone knows it

 

Stomping the roses

Smashing out all the feeling inside of them

It's bad business

The way you're stomping the roses

 

Stomping, Stomping Yeah

Take it easy, yeah

David Archuleta - Elevator


Woah oh oh ohhh

 

I had a dream last night

I didn't know which floor to get off on, heyyyeyy

The doors, they opened on 4 and 5 and 6

And you were gone, all gone

 

I didn't understand

I didn't wanna know

At least I took a chance

I had to let it go

 

[Chorus]

Elevator goes up

Elevator come down

And you just go with the flow

Until your feet are back on the ground

It's an endless ride

Sometimes it takes you up

Sometimes it tears you down inside

But it's the butterflies

That keep you feeling so alive, so alive

You gotta get back that high

 

And in my dream last night

The doors they finally shut and I was there, somewhere

Alone in my reality inside an empty box

That's filled with air

But I don't care, noooo

 

Next time I'll get it right

Next time I'll be okay

I'll have a different dream tonight

Tomorrow's another day

 

 

[Chorus]

Elevator goes up (elevator goes up)

Elevator come down

And you just go with the flow

Until your feet are back on the ground

It's an endless ride

Sometimes it takes you up

Sometimes it tears you down inside

But it's the butterflies

That keep you feeling so alive, so alive

You gotta get back that high

 

You'll never know

What you're gonna get

What you don't expect will come and find you

If you laugh or cry

If you run and hide

But it's all right

 

[Chorus]

Elevator goes up

Elevator come down

And you just go with the flow

Until your feet are back on the ground

It's an endless ride

Sometimes it takes you up

Sometimes it tears you down inside

But it's the butterflies

That keep you feeling so alive, so alive

You gotta get back that high

 

 

It's an endless ride

Sometimes it takes you up

Sometimes it tears you down inside

But it's the butterflies

That keep you feeling so alive, so alive

You gotta get back that high

David Archuleta - The Other Side Of Down


Down (Down), Down (Down), Down (Down), Down (Down)

 

Here I am with all these questions hanging from my ceiling low

And by one day they'll keep telling me I told you so

Everywhere I turn I see red lights flashing over my head

Oh no, oh no, oh no

In a whirl-wind spinning yeah somehow it knocked me off my feet

But I know better than to let it get the best of me,

I could give up, I could stay stuck, I could move on

 

So I put one foot front of the other,

No no no nothing's gonna break my stride,

I keep climbing, gonna keep fighting until I make it to the other side of down

Down down down down

 

In the sky, Im standing under all I see is endless rain

I think I spot a silver lighting hiding in the grey

I might get tossed around, but I'm always bouncing back

oh.oh.oh

I could give up, I could stay stuck, but I could move on,

 

So I put one foot front of the other,

No no no nothing's gonna break my stride,

I keep climbing, gonna keep fighting until I make it to the other side of down

 

On the other side of down

It keeps calling me

Where I wanna be

On The other side of down

it keeps calling me

where I wanna be

where I wanna be

 

I put one foot front of the other,

No no no nothing's gonna break my stride,

I keep climbing, gonna keep fighting until I make it to the other side of down

Down down down down
