Big Yellow Taxi by Counting Crows


They paved paradise and put up a parkin' lot
With a pink hotel, a boutique, and a swingin' hot spot
Don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you got till it's gone
They paved paradise and put up a parkin' lot

They took all the trees, and put em in a tree museum
And they charged the people a dollar and a half to see them
No, no, no, don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you've got till it's gone
They paved paradise, and put up a parkin' lot

Hey farmer, farmer, put away your DDT
I don't care about spots on my apples,
Leave me the birds and the bees - please
Don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you got till it's gone
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot
Hey now, they've paved paradise to put up a parking lot
Why not?

Listen, late last night, I heard the screen door swing,
And a big yellow taxi took my girl away
Now don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you got till it's gone
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot
Hey now now, don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you got till it's gone
They paved paradise to put up a parking lot
Why not, they paved paradise
They put up a parking lot
Hey hey hey, paved paradise and put up a parking lot

Kiss of Life by Friendly Fires



Rub that line above the sand
I can see you closer
Closer than you’ll ever be
Rub that line above the sand
I know you think it’s over
Staring out into the sea

Don’t let go this could be so perfect.
Don’t let go if we hold onto it

Rub that line above the sand
Right before the tide comes
Washes you away from me

Ooh kiss of life


Could you wave goodbye to sun?
The sea the stars the waves the tide?
The wails inside that life has died.
But all you need is a kiss of life


Rub that line out of the sky
I can feel the night crawl
A broken drum and tambourine
Rub that line out of the sky
I can see the clouds form
Taking shape in front of me

Don’t let go this could be so easy
Don’t let go if you hold on to me

A thousand butterflies your lips to mine
...


Kiss of life.
