1. Avril Lavigne "I'm with you"
I'm standing on a bridge
I'm waiting in the dark
I thought that you'd be here
by now
There's nothing but the rain
No footsteps on the ground
I'm listening
but there's no sound
Bridge: Isn't anyone trying to find me?
Won't somebody come take me home
Chorus: It's a damn cold night
trying to figure out this life
Won't you
Take me by the hand
Take me somewhere new
I don't know who you are
But I..
I'm with you
I'm with you
I'm looking for a place
I'm searching for a face
Is anybody here i know?
Cause nothings going right
And everthings a mess
And no one likes to be alone
Bridge: Isn't anyone trying to find me?
Won't somebody come take me home
Chorus: It's a damn cold night
trying to figure out this life
Won't you
Take me by the hand
Take me somewhere new
I don't know who you are
But I..
I'm with you
I'm with you
Why is everything so confusing?
Maybe I'm just out of my mind
Yeah yeah yeah yeah YEAHHHHHHHHHH
Chorus:
It's a damn cold night
trying to figure out this life
Won't you
Take me by the hand
Take me somewhere new
I don't know who you are
But I..
I'm with you
I'm with you
Take me by the hand
Take me somewhere new
I don't know who you are
But I
I'm with you
I'm with you
Take me by the hand
Take me somewhere new
I don't know who you are
But I
I'm with you
I'm with you
I'm with you
2.Idioms:
to kick up one`s heels
- to have a good time, celebrate
to have rocks in one`s head
- to be stupid, not have good judgement
to kill the goose that lays the golden egg
- to spoil something that is good or something that one has by being greedy
to hit the jackpot
- to make a lot of money suddenly
a bug in one`s ear
- a hint, an idea
to wear one`s heart on one`s sleeve
- to show one`s feelings openly
off-color
- in bad taste, rude, dirty
3.Katharine Lee Bates "If You Could Come"
My love, my love, if you could come once more From your high place, I would
not question you for heavenly lore, But, silent, take the comfort of your face.
I would not ask you if those golden spheres In love rejoice, If only our stained star hath sin and tears, But fill my famished hearing with your voice.
One touch of you were worth a thousand creeds. My wound is numb Through toil-pressed, but all night long it bleeds In aching dreams, and still you cannot come
4.Quotes and Proverbs:
-Better an egg today than a hen tomorrow.
-A little axe can cut down a big tree.
-Time spent laughing is time spent with the gods.

-When a habit begins to cost money, it's called a hobby.
-Pray that you will never have to bear all that you are able to endure.
-Where there is sunshine, there is also shade.

Big black bugs bleed blue black blood but baby black bugs bleed blue blood.
There once was a man who had a sister, his name was Mr. Fister. Mr. Fister's sister sold sea shells by the sea shore. Mr. Fister didn't sell sea shells, he sold 'silk sheets'. Mr. Fister told his sister that he sold six silk sheets to six shiekhss. The sister of Mr. Fister said I sold six shells to six shiekhs too!
The big black bug bit the big black bear, and the big black bear bit the big black bug back!
