no matter what it is your going through
i will always be here for you
no matter how far away

i wont hesitate to pray
nothing out there compares to you

Rescue Me (Tribute To Haiti) - Riz

can you hear the preacher calling
for you to get on your knees and pray
for all our friends that are falling
i hope i'll see you again

what can i do to bring back to you
all that was taken and all that was shook
i hope that you'd wake up and it all was just a dream
i still hear them saying can you rescue me

no one seems to know the reason
makes you question what you believe in
i wish that i could chase it all away
last night i saw it in your eyes
i knew you were in pain but i'm so far away

what can i do to bring back to you
all that was taken and all that was shook
i hope that you'd wake up and it all was just a dream
i still hear them saying can you rescue me

oh rescue me
(speech)

what can i do to bring back to you
all that was taken and all that was shook
i hope that you'd wake up and it all was just a dream
i still hear them saying can you rescue me

Hit and Run - Riz

i usually don't do this
first thing she said
but tonight there's something in your eyes
thats got me comfortable
you had me at hello
so can we go to your place
now i'm thinking that i won the lottery (lottery)
but soon it started feeling like i was in jeopardy (jeopardy )
so many questions why
like what after tonight
will we still be in touch

i wanna call you after tonight
and make this permanent to my life
cos i'm feeling you
don't want this to be just a one night stand
baby when i thought you would stay the night
i woke up, you were gone out before my eyes
love is a battlefield, we had a fun night
i call this hit and run
you got me

i feel a little foolish after today
thought the feeling was mutual from the start
right when she said lets go
she told me she wanted to get to know me
so i obliged (i obliged)
hoping that in time (hoping that in time)
she could see that i could be her baby
so i put my game face on
for the rest of the night
make sure she's satisfied

cos i wanna call you after tongiht
and make this permanent to my life
cos i'm feeling you
don't want this to be just a one night stand
baby when i thoguht you would stay the night
i woke up, you were gone out before my eyes
love is a battlefield, we had a fun night
i call this hit and run
you got me

girl you got me
i'm bleeding, on the floor
everyone can see it
you take no prisoners
but i was innocent
i didn't know what i was getting in to
i fell in love (fell in love)
with the wrong girl (wrong girl)
feels like she kicked me out to the kerb
when she was through (when she was through)
now i know what it feels like to be you
and it don't feel so good

hey ohhh oohhhhh ooohhh
don't want this to be
just one night stand

baby when i thoguht you would stay the night
i woke up, you were gone out before my eyes
love is a battlefield, we had a fun night
i call this hit and run
you got me
girl, girl you got me
girl, girl you got me
girl, girl you got me
girl, girl you got me
