"Little Black Dress" lyrics
"Little Black Dress"
Okay, I can see it now it's all the same thing
Just different wrapping around it
No need to soften your words, they're still gonna hurt
So don't pull punches
I tried to be everything you'd ever want
And sometimes I even stood on my heart and stomped
Now I'm finally alone and dressed for the show
But going nowhere
They don't need to see me crying
I'll get my little black dress on
And if I put on my favorite song
I'm gonna dance until you're all gone
I'll get my little black dress on
You came, lifted me up but then you dropped a hurricane
Now I'm fighting to find the ground again, to steady my feet
Get up off my knees and just remember
That I am more than just somebody's puppet
I can find the cord and then I'll cut it
I stand a pretty good chance to dust myself off and dance
I'll get my little black dress on
And if I put on my favorite song
I'm gonna dance until you're all gone
I'll get my little black dress on
I got my little black dress on
And if I tell myself that nothing's wrong
This doesn't have to be a sad song
Not with my little black dress on
It's time to connect the dots and draw a different picture up
And paint it with the colors of everything I ever was
Return to the scene of the crime, the day I let the music die
And rewrite the final lines cause this time I
I'll get my little black dress on
And if I put on my favorite song
I'm gonna dance until you're all gone
I'll get my little black dress on
I got my little black dress on
And if I tell myself that nothing's wrong
This doesn't have to be a sad song
Not with my little black dress on

Matthew Morrison - "Still Got Tonight" If you're not home, I'll sit here on your doorstep
Button up my coat and wait
We'll go upstairs close the curtains and we're all set
to pick up where we left again
There's question marks hangin' over...
Jennifer Hudson - "You Will (The Own Song)" Sometimes it's not easy
It's easy to give up
You do your best, seems like your best isn't good enough
Don't let that stop you
Stop it in its tracks
Keep moving forward; you don't ever look back...
Nina Nesbitt - "Just Before Goodbye" You got new jeans, the hoodie's not gone
I'm in the new dress that I've never worn
And I could have sworn
You didn't bat an eye when I walked
Into the room where I first thought
You could be the one...
Ingrid Michaelson - "The Chain" The sky looks pissed
The wind talks back
My bones are shifting in my skin
And you, my love, are gone
My room feels wrong
The bed won't fit
I cannot seem to operate
And you, my love, are gone
So...
A Fine Frenzy - "Come On, Come Out" Come on, come out
The weather is warm
Come on, come out
Said come on, come on
A spot in the shade
Where oranges fall
A spot in the shade
Away from it all
Watching the sky
