Nevertheless may refer to:
Nevertheless is an adverb and so it is always paired with another conjunction such as 'but'. Take this example, for instance. I know, the nuance is rather nice, but nevertheless there is a small difference that it might be important to take into account in order to understand the relationships between the individual words.
The Mills Brothers, sometimes billed as The Four Mills Brothers, were an American jazz and pop vocal quartet of the 20th century who made more than 2,000 recordings that combined sold more than 50 million copies, and garnered at least three dozen gold records. The Mills Brothers were inducted into The Vocal Group Hall of Fame in 1998.
The group was originally composed of four brothers born in Piqua, Ohio, 25 miles (40 km) north of Dayton: John Jr. (October 19, 1910 - January 23, 1936) bass vocalist and guitarist, Herbert (April 2, 1912 - April 12, 1989) tenor, Harry (August 9, 1913 - June 28, 1982) baritone, and Donald (April 29, 1915 - November 13, 1999) lead tenor. Their parents were John Hutchinson (February 11, 1882 – December 8, 1967) and Eathel Mills. John Sr. owned a barber shop and founded a barbershop quartet, called the '"Four Kings of Harmony"'. John Hutchinson Mills senior was the son of William Hutchinson Mills and Cecilia Simms who lived in Bellefonte, Pennsylvania.
As the boys grew older, they began singing in the choir of the Cyrene African Methodist Episcopal Church and in the Park Avenue Baptist Church in Piqua. After their lessons at the Spring Street Grammar School, they would gather in front of their father's barbershop on Public Square or at the corner of Greene and Main to sing and play the kazoo to passersby.
Gidon Kremer (Latvian: Gidons Krēmers; born February 27, 1947) is a Latvian violinist and conductor. In 1980 he left the USSR and settled in Germany.
Kremer was born in Riga to parents of German-Jewish (his father being a Holocaust survivor) and Latvian-Swedish origins. He began playing the violin at the age of four, receiving instruction from his father and his grandfather, who were both professional violinists. He went on to study at the Riga School of Music and with David Oistrakh at the Moscow Conservatory. In 1967, he won third prize at the Queen Elisabeth Music Competition in Brussels; then, in 1969, second prize at the Montreal International Violin Competition (shared with Oleh Krysa) followed by first prize at the Paganini Competition in Genoa; and finally first prize again in 1970 at the International Tchaikovsky Competition in Moscow.
Kremer's first concert in the West was in Germany in 1975, followed by appearances at the Salzburg Festival in 1976 and in New York City in 1977. In 1981, Kremer founded a chamber music festival in Lockenhaus, Austria, with a focus on new and unconventional programming, serving as artistic director for 30 years. In 1996 Kremer founded the Kremerata Baltica chamber orchestra, composed of young players from the Baltic region. He was also among the artistic directors of the festival "Art Projekt 92" in Munich and is director of the Musiksommer Gstaad festival in Switzerland. In 2008, he and Kremerata Baltica toured with the classical musical comedy duo Igudesman & Joo. He also made regular appearances at the Verbier Festival until the summer of 2011, when he withdrew, issuing a public complaint of excessive hype.
Michael Steven Bublé ( /ˈbuːbleɪ/; born 9 September 1975) is an Italian Canadian singer and actor. He has won several awards, including three Grammy Awards and multiple Juno Awards. His first album reached the top ten in Canada and the UK. He found a worldwide audience with his 2005 album It's Time, and his 2007 album Call Me Irresponsible which reached number one on the Canadian Albums Chart, the U.K. Albums Chart, the U.S. Billboard 200 albums chart, the Australian ARIA Albums Chart and several European charts. Bublé has sold more than 30 million albums worldwide.
Michael Bublé was born in the City of Burnaby, British Columbia, Canada to Lewis Bublé, a salmon fisherman, and Amber (née Santagà). He has two younger sisters, Crystal (an actress) and Brandee. He attended Seaforth Elementary School and Cariboo Hill Secondary School. According to an Oprah interview on 9 October 2009, Bublé dreamed of becoming a famous singer since age two. When he was a teenager, he slept with his Bible and prayed to become a singer. Bublé's interest in jazz music began around age five when his family played Bing Crosby's White Christmas album at Christmas time. The first time that his family noticed his singing talent was at Christmas time when Bublé was 13 years old, and they heard him powerfully sing the phrase "May your days be merry and bright" when the family was singing to the song "White Christmas" in a car ride.
Harry Edward Nilsson III (June 15, 1941 – January 15, 1994) was an American singer-songwriter who achieved the peak of his commercial success in the early 1970s. On all but his earliest recordings he is credited as Nilsson. He is known for the hit singles "Everybody's Talkin'" (1969), "Without You" (1971), and "Coconut" (1972). Nilsson's career is also notable for the fact that he was one of the few major pop-rock recording artists of his era to achieve significant commercial success without ever performing major public concerts or undertaking regular tours.
He was awarded Grammys for two of his recordings; best male contemporary vocal in 1969 for "Everybody's Talkin'", the theme song to the Academy Award-winning movie Midnight Cowboy, and best male pop vocal in 1972 for "Without You."
Nilsson was born in the Bushwick section of Brooklyn, New York, in 1941. His paternal grandparents were Swedish circus performers and dancers, especially known for their "aerial ballet" (which is the title of one of Nilsson's albums). His father, Harry Edward Nilsson, Jr., abandoned the family when young Harry was three. An autobiographical reference to this is found in the opening to Nilsson's song "1941":
I knew the time had to come
When I'd be held under your thumb
I'm like a pawn in your hand
Moved and compelled, at your command
Whether it's for bad or for good
I would never change it if I could
Maybe I'm right, maybe I'm wrong
Maybe I'm weak, maybe I'm strong
But nevertheless I'm in love with you
Maybe I'll win, maybe I'll lose
And maybe I'm in for cryin' the blues
But nevertheless I'm in love with you
Somehow, I know at a glance, the terrible chances I'm taking
Fine at the start, then left with a heart that is breaking
Maybe I'll live a life of regret, and maybe I'll give much more than I get
But nevertheless, I'm in love with you
In spite of all I could do
I went ahead falling for you
So if I laugh or I cry
I made my bed, that's where I'll lie
For what happens there's no excuse
Maybe I'm right and maybe I'm wrong
And maybe I'm weak and maybe I'm strong
But nevertheless I'm in love with you
Maybe I'll win and maybe I'll lose
And maybe I'm in for cryin' the blues
But nevertheless I'm in love with you
Somehow I knew at a glance
The terrible chances I'm taking
Fine at the start, then left with a heart
That is breaking
Maybe I'll live a life of regret
And maybe I'll give much more than I get
Nevertheless I'm in love with you
(Maybe I'm right and maybe I'm wrong)
(Maybe I'm weak maybe I'm strong)
But nevertheless I'm in love with you
(Maybe I'll win maybe I'll lose)
(Maybe I'm in for cryin' the blues)
But nevertheless I'm in love with you
Somehow I knew at a glance
The terrible chances I'm taking
Fine at the start, then left with a heart
That is breaking
Maybe I'll live a life of regret
And maybe I'll give much more than I get

Lay a hand full of marked cards,
I played the last game.
Well, all the time you know,

Ain't it cruel, now, baby
how life is full of such shame? But
Chorus:
Nevertheless, I can't keep myself from lovin' you, no.
Nevertheless, I can't keep myself from lovin you, [naw/no]
With that loaded gun you seem to
Have so much fun.
Scarin' hell outta people that you
Claim you love.
Cannot find no reason why you're
Doin' the things you do.
Chorus
Well, I get so tired of makin' reservations for you.
And even my good friends call me,
Make me feel the fool.
But then I find no reason why you're
Doin' the things you do.

Please play by the rules.

From breaking your heart.
Was it free for the taking?
To tear it apart?

In this day and age, love is all the rage
Life goes on, it only goes to show
It's not my cup of tea, it's all the same to me
For we are here today and gone tomorrow
(We are here today and gone tomorrow)
Nevertheless, make the most of it, make the most of it
In the beginning of fate I was born into a world where I
could be. I was told the secrets of a history.
I can not explain it, but I know where everything is
from: my mind just creates it. I don't know why I cannot
die.
Nevertheless (never) I die. Nevertheless (never) I try.
I know the stories you told, nice to listen, though it's
obvious they're not true. Do not believe anyone has lived
here, been here before you.
I make no reflections about things I do not want to know.
It's me running down your face.
It's me that you know you can't replace
with all that the world has for you or
with all in the world that you can...
Take, take, you can't take it anymore.
Tell me what you're living for.
Leave, leave, but, when you come back home,
I'll be here.
It's me giving you your space.
It's me offering this grace for the way that
you've wasted all I gave and the way that you waste all that you...
Take, take, you can't take it anymore.
Tell me what you're living for.
Leave, leave, but, when you come back home, I'll be here.
I've been waiting for you, that someday you would come back home.
I've been waiting for you â'cause you can't make it on your own.
I've got a place prepared for you.
You were lost, but now you're found.
I've got a place prepared for you.
Take, take, you can't take it anymore.
Tell me what you're living for.
Leave, leave, but, when you come back home, I'll be here.
She spent the night out with a guy
Who gives attention when she cries herself to sleep
I heard her say
So, she gives him what he wants
As long as he can make her feel okay
But she's not okay
We avoid the topics
We make the kids have secrets
When they are exposed
And everyone else knows
We'll say we never knew it
That they had a problem
'Cause if we would have known
We surely would have solved it
But we can't, it's too late
I said we can't, it's too late
He's skipping classes 'cause he hates them
And hopes he passes not to take them all again
I heard him say
He escapes them with the pills
The ones he takes to make him feel like he's okay
But he's not okay
God, You've got to save us
We hide behind the faces that we make to disguise
The things that we're ashamed of
And all the ugly things that make us close our eyes
They make us close our eyes
Here I am
Tonight
I can't stand
To Fight
This feeling of dispair
I hide
I wonder are You there?
Sometimes, sometimes (we all wonder)
Chorus:
Whoooooaaa
This is You, this is me
This is who we're meant to be
Whoooooaaa
We are the real, the truth is unchanging
This is the call to hearts that are feeling
Whoooooaaa
So it is
Sometimes
That I feel
This life
Is far beyond repair
But I
I know that You are there
Tonight, tonight (I won't give up)
Chorus
Keep on
Breathing
Don't you let this take you down
Don't stop
Believing
They say we cant make it through
Too young;
Don't know what to do
This life is much too hard for you, and me
They say
we're living in our dreams
black, white nothing in between
This world is never as it seems to be
(chorus)
But they don't want this
and they don't feel this
but this was never theirs at all!
So here I stand
I'm ready for anything
Just a man,
but I've given everything
We're here only for a second
and then it's gone
when we least expect
so do more than survive,
LETS LIVE LIKE WE'RE ALIVE
They say "Stay inside the lines we've drawn
and you will be just fine
Don't take chances with your life
C'mon"
chorus
Alive
This world,
we gotta let it go
This life,
is out of our control
Hey, where have you been?
Where did you go looking for innocence?
Shame is holding you down, selling you out,
Won't you come back again?
'Cause you've found a way to go on for days,
Pretending to live.
But you are not OK with all of that weight,
You need to give up.
Come now, just let it go,
Let it fall down, let it all flow like,
The water that's rushing in over your soul 'til there's nothing left.
Won't you come to me and rest?
Hey, I know that you're scared to look in my eyes,
When you know that something's wrong.
I'll wait as long as it takes, for you to find grace,
It's been here all along.
'Cause you've found a way to go on for days, Pretending to live.
But you are not OK with all of that weight
You need to give up.
Come now, just let it go,
Let it fall down, let it all flow like,
The water that's rushing in over your soul 'til there's nothing left.
Won't you come to me as you are...
Dirty and broken with all your scars,
From all the unspoken.
With all the words that you wanted to say,
But you locked them away inside.
Come now, just let it go,
Let it fall down, let it all flow like,
The water that's rushing in over your soul 'til there's nothing left...
Come now, just let it go,
Let it fall down, let it all flow like,
The water that's rushing in over your soul 'til there's nothing left.
I wonder what You think of me
When I put Your name in spotlights
And run into the dark night all alone?
I live like I'm changing with the seasons
When You give me every reason to stay by Your side
But still I hide
It's no secret
I know everybody knows
I need You
I need You
It's no secret
That I'm afraid to be alone
I need You
I need You now
I gotta get this off my chest
I've been drowning in the ocean
Pledging my devotion to the one I left
For something in between
My hands and the unseen
You've been here every day
I ran away
Every single second
Every minute that goes by
Im driving, half alive and beaten down because I've been falling, and it won't be long before I hit the ground. This heart is aching for Your touch because I'm losing all I've been using as a crutch.
And I think I don't need this, but You break me into pieces until I come undone. Window's open, and I'm hoping to find release from this pain that's been lingering for so many weeks. I'm praying for You to fill this space, and this emptiness I'm trading for Your grace.
I can't sleep
I can't eat
If I give them what they want then
Will they just let me be
Who I am?
I'm not like them
I'm sick of nodding my head
At the things that I can't stand
This is it
Oh, my friends
I've tried so hard
But I cannot pretend
Cross my heart
Hope to make it out alive
Their helping hands
Look more like suicide
If I don't make it out
Remember that I tried
Cross my heart
I hope to breathe this time
Day by day
Night by night
I sat alone with pen and page
Trying to do what's right
God, I pray
Shed some light
'Cause if I burn
I want to burn out bright
Cross my heart
Hope to make it out alive
Their helping hands
Look more like suicide
If I don't make it out
Remember that I tried
Cross my heart
I hope to breathe this time
You make all things new
And no one needs it like I do
You know I do
Oh, You make all things new
And no one needs it like I do
I need You
(x2):
Cross my heart
Hope to make it out alive
Their helping hands
Look more like suicide
If I don't make it out
Remember that I tried
Cross my heart
We watched the ships come in
From across the bay
I watched your lips move in
Wondering what to say
That was good enough
That was strong enough
That was good enough for you
Love is an ocean
Caught in a storm
Breaking down walls
And taking its form
The farthest from safety
But the closest I've come
As we come undone
In Augustine
We dangled our feet
Over water from the wall
I took your hand
Ready for the fall
I'd fall fast enough
I'd fall hard enough
I'd fall fast enough for you
Don't say a word
I hope that you know
There's truth in the way that we feel
The current is strong
I'll never let go of you
We'd fall fast enough
We'd fall hard enough
We'd fall sure enough
Keep the front door locked
Lights out, so no one can see me
Or where I've been
I've got them all convinced,
I'm fine, with no one around me
No one gets in
This hallow shell, this little hell
You took me out of the dark,
But I found my way back again
I'm not doin' well, I'm not doin' well
So take me out of the dark,
Back to the place where I'm found
And back with you
Everybody else, feels fine
Their lives are so perfect
They have no shame
But I'm an open book
Filled with stories about me
That don't mean a thing
This hallow shell, this little hell
You took me out of the dark,
But I found my way back again
I'm not doin' well, I'm not doin' well
So take me out of the dark,
Back to the place where I'm found
And back with you
Just let 'em in, let 'em in, Tonight
Just let 'em in, let 'em in, Tonight
Just let 'em in, let 'em in, Tonight
Just let 'em in, let 'em in, Tonight
Just let 'em in, let 'em in, Tonight
It's been years in the making
In my skin I am shaking from the cold
I am tired from the taking
And my heart it won't stop breaking and I know...
Moving forward can't be this hard
I'm just trying to find out
Who I am on my own
I had you right beside me
But now you're gone and I know
That when the room clears I'm still here
Who am I when I'm alone?
They say time is a healer
But it's more like a concealer for a scar
'Cause it never really leaves us
But it can always find us where we are
Who thought it could ever be so hard?
There's so much I should have said when time was wearing thin
I’ve been sleeping in for days,
‘Cause when I am awake,
I will have to face my life.
And I’m hoping it’s a phase.
The walls that I create
Can only make it seem alright.
And I get carried away like I’m the only one
Who’s ever felt the way that I do,
But I can hear you say, “You’re not the only one.
'Cause everybody hopes to get through.”
And it’s got me sleeping in.
Every day God, it’s the same thing.
Yeah, you caught me sleeping in.
I’m still hiding; I’m still waiting.
I need you here with me to face the world outside
‘Cause I’m tired of sleeping in.
I’ve been waking up with fear,
‘Cause all that I can hear
Is the ringing of alarms downtown.
It’s been going on for years,
And you have made it clear
That I am not alone in this crowd.
And I get carried away like I’m the only one
Who’s ever felt the way that I do,
But I can hear you say, “You’re not the only one.
'Cause everybody hopes to get through.”
And it’s got me sleeping in.
Every day God, it’s the same thing.
Yeah, you caught me sleeping in.
I’m still hiding; I’m still waiting.
I need you here with me to face the world outside
‘Cause I’m tired of sleeping in.
Open up my eyes.
I’m tired of sleeping in
In a world that’s dying to wake up.
And it’s got me sleeping in.
Yeah it’s got me sleeping in.
And it’s got me sleeping in.
Every day God, it’s the same thing.
Yeah, you caught me sleeping in.
I’m still hiding; I’m still waiting.
I need you here with me to face the world outside
‘Cause I’m tired of sleeping in.
‘Cause I’m tired of sleeping in.
Tell me whose right
Whose wrong
It sounds like the same old song
But if it's compromise they want
Then I don't belong
We paint You in pictures well
We praise You and live like we don't
If You'd ask do we love You still
Sometimes I can't tell
It's true,
I still believe in You
We've made it hard to see
The light shining through
The things we do
Holy and beautiful
Your grace is unstoppable
It's bigger than what we've done
Or how we feel
It's true,
I still believe in You
We've made it hard to see
The light shining through
The things we do
Underneath my skin,
In a place where no one goes
There is still a fire,
Burning in my soul
The world is such a mess,
But somewhere there is hope
Somewhere there is hope
You are still my hope
It's true,
I still believe in You
We've made it hard to see
The light shining through
The things we do
I still believe in You,
I still believe in You,
I still believe in You,
I am here
But am I still alive?
You broke me down
But somehow I survived
I never thought that I could leave it
I can't believe it. It's gone
You'll never hear me say
I wanted it this way
It hurts me every time I breathe
No matter what I've told
I'm left out feeling cold
But I know, I needed this all along
Safe and Well
To everything advise
Take this heart
It was never even mine
I never thought that I could leave it.
I can't believe it.
It's gone
You'll never hear me say
I wanted it this way
It hurts me every time I breathe
No matter what I've told
I'm left out feeling cold
But I know, I needed this all along
Blood stains and scars
Are much worse than ours
But your breaking, healing is taking me this far
This far
I never thought that I could leave it
I can't believe it
It's gone.
I thought that maybe I stopped breathing
But instead I'm moving on.
You'll never hear me say
I wanted it this way
It hurts me every time I breathe
No matter what I've told
I'm left out feeling cold
But I know, I needed this all along.
I've needed this all along.
What if the fire burns out?
What if we're left without
Anyone to call our own?
You've got it figured out
If ever you're in doubt
Never have to be alone
People they come and people they go.
I could be wrong, but,
There's one thing I know
It's a longshot, baby,
But someday both of us will die
So I was thinking, maybe,
I could be your semi-perfect guy.
You don't know me, baby,
But I was hopin' we could try
For a longshot, you and I.
What if we take a chance,
What if you break your plans
And let me sweep you off your feet
You said you hate romance,
But I'm a persistent man
And I want you here with me
People they come and people they go.
I could be wrong, but,
There's one thing I know
It's a longshot, baby,
But someday both of us will die
So I was thinking, maybe,
I could be your semi-perfect guy.
You don't know me, baby,
But I was hopin' we could try
For a longshot, you and I.
I've been prayin' all my life
For love that's true,
But I never thought I'd get a girl like you.
Oh can't you see
Heaven sent you to me.
It's a longshot, baby,
But someday both of us will die
So I was thinking, maybe,
I could be your semi-perfect guy.
You don't know me, baby.
But I was hopin' we could try
For a longshot, you and I.
It's a longshot baby,
But someday both of us will die
So I was thinking, maybe,
I could be your semi-perfect guy.
You don't know me baby
But I was hopin we could try
You keep your distance.
Like, for instance, when you told me we should take it slow.
It's been forever. It's now or never
and it might be time to let this go.
I know that I - I've gotta get away â'cause I've had enough...
Time, you always needed more time.
But all we've ever had is time.
So now this is the last time, but I'll be fine.
Not that I'm caring
but it's apparent that you're not what you pretend to be.
I thought I knew you.
I'm seeing through you, and you never saw yourself with me.
I know that I - I've gotta get away â'cause I've had enough...
Time, you always needed more time.
But all we've ever had is time.
So now this is the last time, but I'll be fine.
I've gotta let this go.
It's holding me down.
It's holding me down!
I've gotta let this go!
I know that I â- I've gotta get away â'cause I've had enough.
I know that I â- I've gotta get away.
Time, you always needed more time.
But all we've ever had is time.
So now this is the last time, but I'll be fine.
I haven't reached perfection, but is that what she needs?
I haven't reached the wisdom that she should always heed.
I am just a man. I haven't died for her, but I would.
I'll do whatever I have to.
I may not be her perfect chemistry,
but, if I can love her like you do, that's all she needs.
I haven't found the remedy to every tear she'll cry,
but I'll try to be the one who's by her side.
I may not be her perfect chemistry,
Sweet Patience, the product of our love.
We can rise above together.
We'll make it though rain fills the sky.
We can fly through any weather.
Take heart tonight.
We were made for flight,
but it's faith that takes us there.
Oh, emotions take us for a ride, â'till all of our insides are screaming.
This devotion is what we were made for,
but now we're wanting more than dreaming.
Take heart tonight.
We were made for flight,
but it's faith that takes us there.
We want more than dreaming,
and we are screaming "Love",
but it's faith that takes us there.
We've held hostage our desires and put the water to the fire for so long.
We've been so strong.
Take heart tonight.
We were made for flight, but it's faith that takes us there.
We want more than dreaming, and we are screaming "Love",
but it's faith that takes us there. It takes us there.
I want to come closer, but you are so distant.
Lately your thoughts are so far.
I want to show you all that you're missing,
and I'll meet you right where you are.
O' Love, I've always known you, and,
O' Love, you've always been mine.
O' Love, I'm only asking you for your life.
Say that you need me. I know what you're feeling.
You cannot do this alone. I gave you my Word,
and I gave you my life so that you'll never be on your own.
O' Love, I've always known you, and,
O' Love, you've always been mine.
O' Love, I'm only asking you for your life.
You're waiting for this life to be what you want.
(Is this what you wanted?)
You're waiting for this life to be what you need.
(Is this what you needed?)
You're waiting for this life...
O' Love, I've always known you, and,
O' Love, you've always been mine.
I am a lover. I am a shame.
I am appalled by what I fame.
I am a lover, but I've had my share of
flirting with the darkest affairs.
You can find me here with my head against the wall
lost in my regrets and every time I fall
you catch me in your hands.
You circle me like a wedding band.
I have a lover, faithful and true
cares for me in all that I do.
I have a lover.
My song you have sung with love on
your lips and grace on your tongue.
You can find me here with my head against the wall,
lost in my regrets and every time I fall â-
you catch me in your hands.
You circle me like a wedding band.
A promise from Heaven, a promise from you,
a promise to love, I will hold onto.
God of new beginnings, to you I cry,
"Teach me how to love. Teach me how to die."
In death there's forgiveness, and forgiveness calls on new life!
You can find me here with my head against the wall,
lost in my regrets and every time I fall â-
you catch me in your hands.
I'm done. I'm done with this!
Oh Son, expose my weakness with the
daylight you bring that's bright enough to kill this grey.
We're dancing on the fence.
We're losing innocence
but we can't expect to live like this forever.
What do I say? How do I explain this grey
that weighs heavy on the brains of those who
I love and those who keep the faith?
When I know there's just one way.
We're dancing on the fence.
We're losing innocence,
but we can't expect to live like this forever!
We weren't made to live like this, no never!
We try to come as close as we can to what we
can't and not get caught, but, instead, let's turn
and run towards the light!
We're dancing on the fence.
We're losing innocence,
but we can't expect to live like this forever.
We weren't made to live like this, no never!
We wear it on our face.
We keep up with the pace and don't slow down.
But perfection without grace is such a lonely place to be found.
We go â'round and â'round and never really move at all.
Oh, we are bruised and destined to lose doing this alone.
Oh, let it fall and cover us all â- this grace that's not our own.
See it in our eyes. We're running for the prize. Don't burn out.
But without a hand to hold, we'll never really know what life's about.
We go â'round and â'round and never really move at all.
Oh, we are bruised and destined to lose doing this alone.
Oh, let it fall and cover us all â- this grace that's not our own.
Let's live like we're alive. We'll take the pain in stride.
We'll learn from our mistakes and be glad we ever tried.
Let's live like we're alive.
Live like we're alive and run with him into the night!
Oh, we are bruised and destined to lose doing this alone.
Oh, let it fall and cover us all â- this grace that's not our own.

Maybe I'm right, and maybe I'm wrong
Maybe I'm weak and maybe I'm strong
But nevertheless I'm in love with you
Maybe I'll win and maybe I'll lose
Maybe I'm in for crying the blues
But nevertheless I'm in love with you
Somehow I know at a glance
The terrible chances I'm taking
Fine at the start, then left with a heart that is breaking
Maybe I'll live a life of regret,
And maybe I'll give much more than I'll get
But nevertheless, I'm in love with you
Somehow I know at a glance
The terrible chances I'm taking
Fine at the start, then left with a heart that is breaking
Maybe I'll live a life of regret,
And maybe I'll give much more than I'll get
But nevertheless, I'm in love with you
But nevertheless, I'm in love with you
Hope you can use these. I thank you for your site!!!

I knew the time had to come
When I'd be held under your thumb
I'm like a pawn in your hand
Moved and compelled, at your command
Whether it's for bad or for good
I would never change it if I could
Maybe I'm right, maybe I'm wrong
Maybe I'm weak, maybe I'm strong
But nevertheless I'm in love with you
Maybe I'll win, maybe I'll lose
And maybe I'm in for crying the blues
But nevertheless I'm in love with you
Somehow, I know at a glance, the terrible chances I'm taking
Fine at the start, then left with a heart that is breaking
Maybe I'll live a life of regret,
And maybe I'll give much more than I get
But nevertheless, I'm in love with you
In spite of all I could do
I went ahead falling for you
So if I laugh or I cry
I made my bed, that's where I'll lie
For what happens there's no excuse
I knew the time had to come
When I'd be held under your thumb
I'm like a pawn in your hand
Moved and compelled, at your command
Whether it's for bad or for good
I would never change it if I could
Maybe I'm right, maybe I'm wrong
Maybe I'm weak, maybe I'm strong
But nevertheless I'm in love with you
Maybe I'll win, maybe I'll lose
And maybe I'm in for crying the blues
But nevertheless I'm in love with you
Somehow, I know at a glance, the terrible chances I'm
taking
Fine at the start, then left with a heart that is
breaking
Maybe I'll live a life of regret, and maybe I'll give
much more than I get
But nevertheless, I'm in love with you
In spite of all I could do
I went ahead falling for you
So if I laugh or I cry
I made my bed, that's where I'll lie
For what happens there's no excuse
Start talking fast, get your point across.
You won't know your last 'till you're at a loss.
We both know you're too good to be givin' up.
We won't stop fighting until we've had enough.
and I see you down, now, for the count.
Nevertheless, and without a doubt,
One day you'll pull through.
Your heart beats fast and you're all upset.
Just take a rest, then we'll make amends.
Don't shelter me from all your thoughts.
Not all is gone, forgiveness bought.
