30 days challenge DAY-24 The Edge Of Glory

 

 

Today's song

is The Edge of Glory by Lady Gaga

youtu.be

 

When this song was released, I was maybe in elementary school? or junior high? I liked this song, not knowing the meaning of the lyrics. I liked her makeup.

Now I can understand what she is singing about. This is very moving and impressive.

 

 

 

Dictation

The Edge Of Glory by Lady Gaga

 

 

There ain't no reason 

You and me should be alone

Tonight yeah baby

Tonight yeah baby

I got a reason that you should take me home tonight

                               you're who

I need a man that thinks it's right when it's so wrong

Tonight yeah baby

Tonight yeah baby

Right on the limits, where we know we both belong tonight

It's time to feel the rush

To brush the dangerous

I'm gonna run right to, to the edge with you

Where we can both fall far in love

I'm on the edge of glory

And I'm hanging on a moment of truth

I'm on the edge of glory

And I'm hanging on a moment with you

I'm on the edge, the edge, the edge...

I'm on the edge of glory

And I'm hanging on a moment with you

I'm on the edge with you

 

 

Another shot before we kiss the other side

Tonight yeah baby

Tonight yeah baby

 I'm on the edge of something final we call life tonight

Alright, alright

Put on your ??

                     shades

Cause I'll be dancing in the flames

Tonight yeah baby

Tonight yeah baby

 It isn't hell if everybody knows my name tonight

All right, all right

It's time to feel the rush

To brush the dangerous

I'm gonna run right to, to the edge with you

Where we can both fall      in love

                                        far

I'm on the edge of glory

And I'm hanging on a moment of truth

I'm on the edge of glory

And I'm hanging on a moment with you

I'm on the edge, the edge, the edge...

I'm on the edge of glory

And I'm hanging on a moment with you

I'm on the edge with you

I'm on the edge with you×3

 

 ...

 

I'm on the edge of glory

And I'm hanging on a moment of truth

I'm on the edge of glory

And I'm hanging on a moment with you

I'm on the edge, the edge, the edge...

I'm on the edge of glory

And I'm hanging on a moment with you

I'm on the edge with you

I'm on the edge with you

I'm on the edge with you

I'm on the edge with you

 

 

Summary

Only a few mistakes!

I knew that we'd become one right away

Oh, right away

At first sight, I felt the energy of sun raise?

Today's song

Today I'm going to listen to a song by Adele

Rumour Has It

 

youtu.be

I think I like British singers.

 

 

 

Dictation

She, she ain't real

She ain't gonna be able to love you  like I will

She is a stranger

You and I have history or

Don't you remember?

Sure, she's got it all

But baby, is that really what you want?

Bless your soul, you gotta head in the clouds

You made a fool out of you

And boy, she's bringing you down

She made your heart melt

But you're cold to the core

Now rumour has it 

She ain't got your love anymore

Rumour has it

...

 

She is half of your age

But I'm guessing that's the reason that you stayed

I heard you've been missing me

You've been telling people things you should be

                                                                 shouldn't be

Like when we ?? out she ain't around

                     creep

Haven't you heard the rumours

Bless your soul, you've got your head in the clouds

You made a fool out of me

And boy, you're bringing me down

You made my heart melt

Yet     cold to the core

     I'm

But rumour has it I'm the one you're leaving a fool

                                                                           her for

Rumour has it

...

 

All of these words whispered in my ears

Tell a story that I cannot bear to hear

Just cause ???

                   I said it

It don't mean that I meant it

People say crazy things

Just cause I said it

Don't mean that I meant it

Just Cause you heard it

 

Rumour has it

...

 

Rumour has it he's the one I'm leaving you for

 

 Summary

Today's song

FOOLS by Troye Sivan

youtu.be

 

 

 

 

 

Dictation

FOOLS by Troye Sivan

 

 

I am tired of this place

I hope people change

I need time to replace what I gave away

And my hopes

They are high

I must keep them small

Though I try to resist

I still want it all

I see swimming pools and living rooms

and ??? planes

      aeroplanes

I see a little house on a hill

And children's names

I see quiet nights

?????????

Poured over ice and Tanqueray

But everything is shattering

And it's my mistake

Only fools fall for you

Only fools

Only fools do what I do

Only fools fall

Only fools fall for you

Only fools 

Only fools do what I do

Only fools fall

 

Our lives don't cry?

                          collide

I'm aware of this

got differences and impulses and you're obsession with 

The little things you like stick I like ???

The little things you like stick, and I like aerosol

I don't give a f**k, I'm not giving up

I still want it all

Only fools fall for you

Only fools

Only fools do what I do

Only fools fall

Only fools fall for you

Only fools 

Only fools do what I do

Only fools fall

I see swimming pools and living rooms

and ??? planes

      aeroplanes

I see a little house on a hill

And children's names

I see quiet nights

?????????

Poured over ice and Tanqueray

But everything is shattering

And it's my mistake

Only fools fall for you

Only fools

Only fools do what I do

Only fools fall

Only fools fall for you

Only fools 

Only fools do what I do

Only fools fall

Only fools...
