Track 23 on My Life’s Soundtrack
GOODNIGHT, GOODNIGHT
By: Hot Hot Heat

It's not enough to hear me say you've won
You only wanted me for having fun
But now I think you've gone and had your way
And left me with a pile of bills to pay
I can't even rewind the tape machine
To listen to your drunken reasoning
So here it is - your final lullaby

So goodnight, goodnight
You're embarrassing me
You're embarrassing you
So goodnight, goodnight
Walk away from the door
Walk away from my life
So Goodnight

I've given up on social niceties
I threw 'em out when I threw out your keys
Along with all your records I can't stand
You never even listen to any one of them
You're never gonna drag me out again
With all the people that were never ever even your friends
So here it is - your final lullaby

So goodnight, goodnight
You're embarrassing me
You're embarrassing you
So goodnight, goodnight
Walk away from the door
Walk away from my life
So goodnight

A little bit of rain I'd say is fair
But when it starts to thunder they all stare
This isn't goodnight, this is goodbye...

So goodnight, goodnight
You're embarrassing me
You're embarrassing you
So goodnight, goodnight.
Walk away from the door
Walk away from my life

So goodnight, goodnight
You're embarrassing me
You're embarrassing you
So goodnight, goodnight
Walk away from the door
Walk away from my life
So goodnight

Track 22 on My Life's Soundtrack
Trippin' up electric lights
I'll take you places you ain't gone before
I've got a formula for givin' the lights
Better, girl, stick with me

Take my hand and hold on tight
This rollercoaster's gonna go all night
Too damn good, this love, it must be a crime
Let us go where no one's gone before

Born under a brilliant star
Stay with me, we can't go wrong
I don't care who's listening
Come on, help me sing along

Daring you on the count of three
You're gonna feel like you're royalty
I'll storm the palace and make you my queen
Let us go where no one's gone before, yeah!

Born under a brilliant star
Stay with me we can't go wrong
I don't care who's listening
Come on, help me sing along

Take my hand with all your might
Time for you and I to settle the score
Our future's out there and we're getting it right
Let us go where no one's gone before

Let us go where no one's gone before
Let us go where no one else has gone before

Track 21 on My Life's Soundtrack
LAST SONG
By: The All-American Rejects

This may be the last thing that I write for long
Can you hear me smiling when I sing this song?
For you and only you

As I leave will you be someone to say good-bye?
As I leave will you be someone to wipe your eye?
My foot is out the door and you can't stop me now

You wanted the best
It wasn't me
Will you give it back?
Now I'll take the lead
When there's no more room to make it grow
I'll see you again
You'll pretend you're naive
Is this what you want?
Is this what you need?
How you end up? Let me know

As I go remember all the simple things you know
My mind is just a crutch and I still hope
That you will miss me when I'm gone
This is the last song

The hearts start breaking as the year is gone
The dream's beginning and the time rolls on
It seems so surreal
And now I sing it
Somehow I knew that it would be this way
Somehow I knew that it would slowly fade
Now I am gone
Just try and stop me now

You wanted the best
It wasn't me
Will you give it back?
Now I'll take the lead
When there's no more room to make it grow
I'll see you again
You'll pretend you're naive
Is this what you want?
Is this what you need?
How you end up? Let me know

As I go remember all the simple things you know
My mind is just a crutch and I still hope
That you will miss me when I'm gone
This is the last song

Will you need me now
You'll find a way somehow
You wanted to
I want it too

As I go remember all the simple things you know
My mind is just a crutch and I still hope
That you will miss me when I'm gone
This is the last song

As I go remember all the simple things you know
My mind is just a crutch and I still hope
That you will miss me when I'm gone
This is the last song

[EDIT:] This is the last song of summer. WAHHHH!!!!! I couldn't find a better "last song".

VACATION
By: Vitamin C

Come on, come on
Let's go!

Vacation
Need a little sun to break up all the frustration
And turn it into love
Ain't nobody gonna tell us what we gonna do
Because today, it's up to you
Temptation comin' up to me
A little relaxation and I'll be great to be
Come on and weeky weeky loo at the
It's gonna start now
Kick it back , kick it back, kick it back to the track
Kick it back, kick it back, kick it back to the max

[Chorus]
Vacation's where I wanna be
Party on the beach where the fun is free
We don't need a holiday, it's time to celebrate

'Cause I need a break, I need a vacation

Vibrations
Need to get me some and drive out all my complications
And turn them into love
Ain't nobody gonna tell us where we gonna be
Because today, today it's you and me

Vacation's what I wanna do
Party on the beach, fun for me and you
We don't need a holiday, it's time to celebrate

Repeat after me, "I need a vacation."

Let's go! [repeat 3x]
I wanna be where the fun is free
So come with me

[Chorus 3x]

Track 19 on My Life’s Soundtrack
HOLD ON
By: B*Witched

You've always been a tough girl,
But you feel you're about to break.
You're feeling stuck,
And out of luck,
Watching your dreams all slip away.
Been working mornings in the kitchen,
And working nights at the corner store.
As your life flies by,
You wonder why,
And you know that there's gotta be something more.

(Chorus)
Hold on,
But don't hold on too tight.
Let go,
It's gonna be all right.
Don't run away from what your heart is saying.
Be strong,
Face what you're afraid of.
Come on,
Show 'em what you're made of.
I know it's hard when your hope is gone,
But you gotta keep holding on.

You'll hear a voice that's calling,
And it's telling you to make a change.
It's time to fly,
And say goodbye,
And move on to a better place.
You know you gotta take the first step,
To get to where you wanna be.
Just get on track,
And don't look back,
'Cos it's the only way that you're gonna be free..

(Chorus 3x)

Track 18 on My Life’s Soundtrack

WALKIN’ ON SUNSHINE
By: Katrina and the Waves

I used to think maybe you love me, now baby I'm sure
And I just can't wait till the day when you knock on my door
Now everytime I go for the mailbox gotta hold myself down
Cause I just can't wait till you write me you're comin' around

(Chorus)
Now I'm walking on sunshine, whoa oh [repeat 3x]
And don't it feel good, hey, all right now
And don't it feel good

I used to think maybe you love me now I know that it's true
And I don't wanna spend my whole life just a waitin' for you
Now don't want you back for the weekend, not back for a day (no no)
I said baby I just want you back and I want you to stay

(Chorus)

Walkin' On Sunshine Walkin' On Sunshine (yeah)
I feel alive, I feel a love, I feel a love that's really real
I feel alive, I feel a love
I feel a love that's really real I'm on sunshine baby, oh
Oh yeah, I'm on sunshine baby, oh

(Chorus)

I say it, I say it, I say it again, now
And don't it feel good, hey, yeah now
And don't it feel good
Now don't it, don't it, don't it, don't it, don't it, don't it feel good
I say it, I say it, I say it again, now

Track 17 on My Life’s Soundtrack

PERFECT DAY
By: Hoku

Sun's up
A little after twelve
Make breakfast for myself
Leave the work for someone else
People say
They say that it's just a phase
They tell me to act my age,
Well I am
* On this perfect day,
Nothing's standing in my way
On this perfect day,
When nothing can go wrong
It's the perfect day,
Tomorrow's gonna come too soon
I could stay, forever as I am
On this perfect day
Sun's down
A little after ten
I pick up all my friends
In my Mercedes-Benz
Wake up
Don't tell me it's just a dream
'Cause when I've had enough
You'll hear me say,
Now don't you try to rain on my
*
I'm in the race
But I've already won
And getting there can
Be half the fun
So don't stop me
Till I'm good and done,
Don't you try to rain on my
Perfect day
It's the perfect day
Nothing's gonna bring me down
I'm in the race
But I've already won
And getting there can
Be half the fun,
So don't stop me
Till I'm good and done,
Don't you try to rain on my
Perfect, day
On this perfect day

Track 16 on My Life’s Soundtrack

RUN AROUND
By: Jason Radford

Things are starting to accelerate into something always troubled
But now I think I'm getting
Dizzy, too much, spinning pace my thinking line is thickening, quickening

It's getting too insane
I'm trying to maintain
Whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa ...

You run around
I run around
We're all gonna run run run around
You run around
I run around
We all do a run run run around

It is getting closer
More intense, ever-spinning, twisting, turning roller coaster
Inch by inch the gap is closing, pressure building, temperature's rising
hotter and hotter
It's getting too crazy
I wish I could maybe
Whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa ...

Run run, baby(8X)

Like a rocket(like a rocket)
Never stopping(never stopping)

You run around
I run around
We're all gonna run run run around
You run around
I run around
We all do a run run run around

You run around(You run around)
I run around
We're all gonna run run run around
You run around(You run around)
I run around
We all do a run run run around

Track 15 on My Life’s Soundtrack
LIFE IS WONDERFUL
By: Jason Mraz
It takes a crane to build a crane
It takes two floors to make a story
It takes an egg to make a hen
It takes a hen to make an egg
There is no end to what I'm saying

It takes a thought to make a word
And it takes some words to make an action
It takes some work to make it work
It takes some good to make it hurt
It takes some bad for satisfaction

La la la la la la la life is wonderful
Ah la la la la la la life goes full circle
Ah la la la la la la life is wonderful

It takes a night to make it dawn
And it takes a day to make you yawn, brother
It takes some old to make you young
It takes some cold to know the sun
It takes the one to have the other

It takes no time to fall in love
But it takes you years to know what love is
It takes some fears to make you trust
It takes those tears to make it rust
It takes the dust to have it polished

Ha la la la la la la life is wonderful
Ah la la la la la la life goes full circle
Ah la la la la la la life is wonderful
Is so...

It takes some silence to make sound
It takes a loss before you found it
It takes a road to go nowhere
It takes a toll to make you care
It takes a hole to make a mountain

Ah la la la la la la life is wonderful
Ah la la la la la la life is full circle
Ah la la la la la la life is wonderful
Ah la la la la la la life is meaningful
Ah la la la la la la life is wonderful
Ah la la la la la la it is so beautiful

Track 14 on My Life’s Soundtrack
SOMEWHERE OUT THERE
By: Linda Ronstadt and James Ingram

Somewhere out there beneath the pale moonlight
Someone's thinking of me and loving me tonight

Somewhere out there someone's saying a prayer
That we'll find one another in that big somewhere out there

And even though I know how very far apart we are
It helps to think we might be wishing on the same bright star

And when the night wind starts to sing a lonesome lullaby
It helps to think we're sleeping underneath the same big sky

Somewhere out there if love can see us through
Then we'll be together somewhere out there
Out where dreams come true

And even though I know how very far apart we are
It helps to think we might be wishing on the same bright star

And when the night wind starts to sing a lonesome lullaby
It helps to think we're sleeping underneath the same big sky

Somewhere out there if love can see us through
Then we'll be together somewhere out there
Out where dreams come true
