FAR FROM HOME (I have piano arrangements)

If fate will make us decide
i've decided to leave this life behind
decided to leave my closest friends
and i makes no sense, it makes no sense!
cuz i'll have to leave you behind.....

PRE-CHORUS:
And i just want you to know
right before i go
you'll never be alone....

CHORUS:
cuz i will never be far from home
i will never be far from home
in the dead of the night
when you think you're all alone
well, i'll never be far from home.
END OF CHORUS

well, im thinkin' of you tonight
got my picture of you right by my side
we've been friends forever
but i would've never
thought.....

CHORUS

BRIDGE:
well, everything has been a whirlwind
since i saw a train stop by
and you got off, looking all handsome
it took me by surprise

PRECHORUS

CHORUS (x2)



Far from home...........





OMG! this is my favorite to play on the piano, and this is my absolute favorite! IT'S NOT ABOUT ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm writing this based off of the As Told By Ginger movie: Far From Home

As Told By Ginger is an animated series that used to be on Nickelodeon, but rarely comes on anymore.
But "Far From Home" is available on DVD on Amazon
 I thought it was a fair tribute to Ginger and (her most memorable boyfriend), Darren.

PEICE OF HOPE


na.......na na. na na na na na, na na na na. na na na na, na na na, na na na.

This Valentine's Day
so dang rainy
got moved away
right next to you
and a few little words, a little stare, a little outburst was all it took
you got me hooked, baby, you got me hooked.....

na na na-na na na.....

PRE-CHORUS:
with that one little look
that's all it took
to give me.....

CHORUS:
that one peice, that one peice of hope
that one peice, oh that tiny little peice of hope
that one peice, that one peice
that one tiny little peice of hope
END OF CHORUS

na na na na, na na na, na na na (x2)

then, that time in the cafe
talking to my friend
confirmed that i was ok
couldn't stop the happiness
overcome with dizziness
eh eh eh eh.....

CHORUS

BRIDGE:
(oh) you got me so confused
(oh) didn't know what to do
(oh) sorry if it seemed i forgot all about you
(oh) cuz in all actuality, in all truth.......
i did (oh oh)

oh......na na na na na na.na na na na na na

a few words, a little stare, a tiny outburst was all it took
and ya got me hooked baby, you got me.......

CHORUS (x2)

na na na na na na na na na na na na.....oh

One little peice......

IT'S NOT OK (i have piano arrangements for this too)

How can you just walk away?
like nothing ever happened?
and i just wanna say
it's not ok, it's not ok

How can you just pretend?
im the farthest from being on your mind
when the truth is, im right around the bend
right around, oh right around....

REFRAIN:
Well, it's not ok (x10)


How can you just let me fade away?

General Vanessa Carlton Discussion / Vanessa wants to make a b-side record :)

« on: February 16, 2008, 06:07:27 pm »

OMG! i totally cannot wait until that happens, if it does happen! she should have a b-side album, and hopefully, it'll be released on itunes or somewhere where i can buy it, cos i'd feel bad to steal from Nessa.

Polls / Favorite Vanessa Video Thus Far?

« on: February 16, 2008, 10:40:48 am »

omg, i really like almost all of them! I think my favorite is Nolita Fairytale, then Hands On Me, then A Thousand Miles, then White Houses. I'm not a big Pretty Baby or Ordinary Day fan. they're good, but i like her others better.

Vanessa Songs / Lyrics / Sheet Music / Rinse CD???!!!???

« on: February 15, 2008, 06:38:15 pm »

what's up with that is that it was supposed to be her first album with her first record label. But that label dropped her, and she moved onto another record label which produced BNN.

the producers of BNN let her put some of the songs that were supposed to go on Rinse on BNN, and for the others, they were, i hate to say this, rejected, which is where her unreleased songs come into play.

That's why you see the songs: Rinse, Twilight, Paradise, Pretty Baby, Prince, sway, and wanted on both albums.

Hopefully i helped, and didn't confuse you too much

I only have piano arrangements for two of these (Illusions and Lies, Broken-Hearted Lullaby). I'm gonna try and make a few piano arrangements for the others too:

copyright 2007-2008 (depending on the song)
ILLUSIONS AND LIES

 didn't know, I didn't know

about those illusions and lies

standing right before my eyes

I didn't know, I didn't know

all you told me , so far-fetched

I never stretched, past that....

CHORUS

Now I know, Now I know

all I thought before was not so

now i know, now i know

so much more

about these illusions and lies

 

I didn't know, I didn't know

you were complicated

makin' me, makin' me frustrated

no idea (no)

I was the one who was blind

and you were the swindler with your complex mind

CHORUS

 
BRIDGE:
No, I don't believe you

need to know for myself, what's right

I may be wrong

but my my truth is much stronger

yeah, much stronger

than your....

 

CHORUS





JUST LISTEN
whispering): Just, just listen....

 

I used to think that you could hear me

just through telepathy

and i stayed strong, i stayed strong

only to hear that i was wrong

i've been searching in my heart

and i hope to find the missing part

 

CHORUS:

please, just listen

just listen to me now

just listen, just listen

just listen to what im trying to say

and maybe God, will tell you what will happen someday

with us.

just listen to those faint heartbeats

that will someday mean everything

 

i used to think that you could see me...

yeah, you could see through me

past that outer, sheilding layer

that leads to what's really there

and i've been searching in my mind

and i hope to find....

 

CHORUS

 
BRIDGE:
I used to whisper songs as i sleep

i used to to keep

everything

i used to wish i had wings

i used to wish i could sing

to you....

only for you.....

 

CHORUS

ahh oh, eh-eh, oh oh

oh, oh oh, eh-eh

ahhhhh.....

(whispers) Just listen....to me





BROKEN-HEARTED LULLABY
Getting out of the car I heard the news

smile on my face

but it's no happy embrace

I'm being smothered in

CHORUS:

so when i lie awake in bed that night

i sing that lullaby

i was taught

and remember my broken heart

 

I'm so sorry

 Ill pray for you

they have nothing better to say, nothing better they can do

i've hit an all-time low

CHORUS

 

so i sit there randomly strumming my guitar

and nothing so far

and i sit there hitting the keys on my piano

i can't let go.

I sit there banging on my drums

and i can't help but to bottle it all inside and to keep mum!

No matter what I'm still so broken hearted

 

CHORUS (x2)

 

Yeah yeah yeah (x2)

yeah...ooo



CONSTRUCTIVE CRITISISM is welcome. Hope they don't sound too cheesy. please tell me (nicely) if you think they do.
