Surefire (Letra) – John Legend
Letras da musica:
Can you just stay through the night?
Turn down the bed and the blinds
Before your turn around
Can you just stay through the night?
Let me breathe you in ‘til gravity bends
And we fall through the hole in the light
Make this our kingdom
Somewhere where good love conquers
And not divides

Cause I may not know a lot of things but
I feel it in my chest
Know I won’t let the blue flame die
We can’t lose hope just yet
‘cause it’s once, just once in a lifetime
And we’re scared to love but it’s alright
I may not know a lot of things but
I know that we’re surefire, yeah
Know that we’re surefire, yeah

Can’t keep this bed warm on the left side
When something is cold as a goodbye
Why don’t you turn around?
Ignore all that shit from the outside
The world is a nightmare
Wake up and stay here
Let me be on your side
We’ll make this our kingdom
Somewhere where good love conquers
And not divides

And oh my, oh my, oh my, oh my god
I’m so, I’m so, I’m so tired of fighting
Let go, give in, let go and give up, oh

I may not know a lot of things but
I feel it in my chest
Know I won’t let the blue flame die
We can’t lose hope just yet
‘cause it’s once, just once in a lifetime
And we’re scared to love but it’s alright
I may not know a lot of things but
I know that we’re surefire
Know that we’re surefire

And oh my, oh my, oh my, oh my god
I’m so, I’m so, I’m so tired of fighting
Let go, give in, let go and give up, oh

I may not know a lot of things but
I feel it in my chest
If we just let the blue flame die
The devil wins this bet
Oh it’s once, just once in a lifetime
And you’re scared to love but it’s alright
I may not know a lot of things but
I know that we’re surefire
Know that we’re surefire

How Can I Blame You (Letra) – John Legend
Letras da musica:
I should’ve known when the cop told me
I’m going too fast, he told me
Speed like that and it’s bound to be
A hell of a crash, he told me
Better late than you don’t get there
Do the math
Oh, you oughta be grateful
For what you have

Well, what if I refuse to learn?
I see a flame, I wanna get burned

How can I blame you?
For showin’ up at the party
Lookin’ through me in that way
Saw somethin’ inside of me break
Saw me wanna make a mistake
How can I blame you
For takin’ over my daydreams
I wanna scream it, I’m sorry
But I can’t ‘cause I’m long overdue
Oh, I wanna blame it on you

Why’s it hard for a man to be satisfied?
Oh, I got one glimpse
Of the green grass on the other side
‘cause it’s all been comin’ to this
And, goddamn, I won’t be denied
Oh, I’m gonna take one more chance tonight

Oh, what if I refuse to learn?
I see the flame grow, I gotta get burned

How can I blame you
For showin’ up at the party?
Lookin’ through me in that way
Saw somethin’ inside of me break
Saw me wanna make a mistake
How can I blame you
For takin’ over my daydreams?
I wanna scream it, I’m sorry
But I can’t ‘cause I’m long overdue
Oh, I wanna blame it on you

Did I know my weakness?
Did I mount all my defenses?
Did I tell you to leave me alone?

How can I blame you?
You saw somethin’ inside of me break
You saw me wanna make a mistake

How can I blame you?
You saw somethin’ inside of me break
You saw me wanna make a mistake
How can I blame you
For takin’ over my daydreams?
I wanna scream it, I’m sorry
But I can’t ‘cause I’m long overdue
Oh, I wanna blame it on you
I wanna blame it on you
I wanna blame it on you, yeah

Right By You (For Luna) (Letra) – John Legend
Letras da musica:
Will you live like me
In a world run by desire?
Will you wake from worldly dream
And not be tired?
Will you work like me
To lift the conversation higher?
Will you be cool like water
Putting out the fire?
How can you be free from all this sorrow?
Will the ones you love
Today be gone tomorrow?

And if angels don’t have answers
To your prayers
Oh, I will be there, oh I will be there

And if who you love
Don’t want your love, well then
Do you cut a deal with love and run again?
You see, love contains the meaning of despair
Will you think like me?
Will you have your mother’s fire?
Maybe the way we are will
Not be how you’re wired
Will we do right by you?
Will we you have what you require
To make your days on this earth not so dire?

Can you choose to lead if no one follows?
And if we fell today, must you tomorrow?
Sanctify your answer not your prayer
Oh, I will be there, yeah, I will be there
Yeah, I will be there

And even when it all becomes too much
When you’re growing old
And feeling out of touch
Listen to this song and just take care
And know that I will be there
Yeah, I will be there
No, I swear that I will
Yeah, I promise I will
Little girl, I’m cryin’

Darkness and Light (Letra) – John Legend
Letras da musica:
Fire and the ice colliding
I wanna go deep and dive in
It’s heaven on earth
But hell of a night to melt into one
She’s never been afraid of sirens
Head down but keep drivin’
Damn we might crash moving so fast but baby

Oh, don’t stop, I need it
Release me, it’s too hard for me to hold
My heart beating, your touch
It thrills me to the bone
Oh lord, forgive us, our love
We’ve lost control baby
Nothing can stop this love
Nothing can stop this love
Never gon’ get enough
Nothing can stop it, oh

Darkness and light, streaming
The end of our life beginning
No longer alone, my will become gone
We melt into one
Both hands on the floor, you go low
Who was I before? I don’t know
And who am I now? your body shows how
The past just has no meaning

Don’t stop, I need it
Release me, it’s too hard for me to hold
My heart beating, your touch
It thrills me to the bone
Oh lord, forgive us, our love
We’ve lost control baby
Nothing can stop this love
Nothing can stop this love
Never gon’ get enough
Nothing can stop it, oh

Oh yeah, yeah

Oh, don’t stop, I need it
Release me, it’s too hard for me to hold
My heart beating, your touch
It thrills me to the bone
Oh lord, forgive us, our love
We’ve lost control baby
Nothing can stop this love
Nothing can stop this love
Never gon’ get enough
Nothing can stop it, oh
