Hubei (help·info) (Chinese: 湖北; pinyin: Húběi; Wade–Giles: Hu-pei; Postal map spelling: Hupeh) is a province in Central China. The name of the province means "north of the lake", referring to its position north of Lake Dongting. The provincial capital is Wuhan.
Hubei is officially abbreviated to "鄂" (È), an ancient name associated with the eastern part of the province since the Qin dynasty, while a popular name for Hubei is "楚" (Chǔ), after the powerful state of Chu that existed here during the Eastern Zhou dynasty. It borders Henan to the north, Anhui to the east, Jiangxi to the southeast, Hunan to the south, Chongqing to the west, and Shaanxi to the northwest. The high-profile Three Gorges Dam is located at Yichang, in the west of the province.
By the Spring and Autumn Period (770 BC - 476 BC), the territory of today's Hubei was part of the powerful state of Chu. Chu was nominally a tributary state of the Zhou Dynasty, and it was itself an extension of the Chinese civilization that had emerged some centuries before in the north; but it was also culturally unique, and was a powerful state that held onto much of the middle and lower Yangtze River, with power extending northwards into the North China Plain.
Don't cry baby
It's no big deal
It's not like it really matters
How I feel
I knew that you would break my heart
I knew it right from the start
But I wouldn't listen to a thing
CHORUS
How could I have been a fool
To put my trust in you
And how did I get here
Drowning in your tears
When you were nowhere near
I can't get mad at you
Over what you put me through
It's what stupid people do
Don't say maybe
'Cause that won't do
Here to take on tomorrow
It's nothing new
I heard you went around the block
Making all your frequent stops
But I wouldn't listen to a thing
CHORUS
It's what stupid do
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
Stupid people do
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
Yeah Yeah Yeah
I don't need your sympathy
So get used to never seeing me ...dork
Don't' cry baby, it's no big deal
CHORUS
Stupid people do
I don't need your sympathy
It's now or never
It's now or never
It's now or never
It's now or never
I can't get off this ride
It's going much too fast
Trying to keep my Kool-aid in
the bottom of a broken glass
Strap me to the rocket
Shoot me out of here
Check the weather channel
Yeah it's clear it's clear it's clear it's clear
CHORUS
Oh we oh we oh we oh
To the top of the world
I won't slide to the bottom again
Oh we oh we oh we oh
To the top of the world
yeah that's right where I'm goin'
To the top, to the top, to the top, to the top
Oh we oh we oh
To the top, to the top, to the top, to the top
Oh we oh we oh
I left the motor running
I locked the keys inside
Just another stupid thing
I do that's gonna waste my time
Don't thing I can do it
And then I think again
Put your mind into it say I can I can I can I can
CHORUS
Press The buzzer
Keep it fresh.. (Oh)
Do the math
(Next in line Hold on tight
Always keep your hands inside
It gets lonely at the top
It blows at the bottom)
CHORUS
(I left the motor running
I left the keys inside)
From the top to the bottom
(To the bottom)
From the top to the bottom
(To the bottom)
CHORUS
To the top, to the top,

Oh we oh we oh
To the top, to the top,

Oh we oh we oh
It's now or never
It's now or never
My heart was up for grabs
You were the one with the hands
Liking me more than a friend
Leaving me dizzy and then
Then you started to treat me like
Someone you didn't like
Until you wanted to be with me
Then you started to hit me up
With something I thought was love
But all you wanted from me
Was one thing
I stayed longer than I should
Sometimes love can be misunderstood
'Cause I thought that you cared more for me
But I was just blind ut now I see
Then you started to treat me like
Someone you didn't like
Until you wanted to be with me
Then you started to hit me up
With something I thought was love
But all you wanted from me
Was one thing
No less no more
I guess you got what you came here for
To satisfy your urge
Well if that's all I'm worth
Then I can't let you stay
I have to be less than me
My heart was up for grabs
And you were the one with the hands
And you started to treat me like
Someone you didn't like
Until you wanted to be with me
Then you started to hit me up
With something I thought was love
But all you wanted from me
Was one thing
One thing yeah one thing
And you started to treat me like
Someone you didn't like
Wake him up in the morning sun
Looking forward to the day that comes
He can pick out the shirt I wear
I'll put a yellow flower in my long blond hair
Got nothing really planned today
But it doesn't matter anyway
He can take me where I want to go
Yeah, he's the kind of guy that always seems to know
One way or another he just grows on me
And I can't wait to tell him that it's plain to see
That he's enough reason
To give up my freedom
Tell my ex to stop calling, admit that I'm falling
Yeah, he's enough reason
When he lays in my arms at night
Counting stars in the pale moonlight
It's a feeling that I can't explain
'Cause no other lover's ever made me feel the same
He's the kind of guy you can't compare
To anybody else out there
And when I blow him a little kiss
He makes me forget about all the guys I'll miss
One way of another he just grows on me
And I can't wait to tell him that it's plain to see
That he's enough reason
To give up my freedom
And I'm even working on stopping my flirting
'Cause he's enough reason, yeah
I can't promise him forever
No, I can't promise
We'll always be together
But I'll promise to try
You know I'll promise to try
Oh, oh, oh
I never thought I'd be the one who's so
Infatuated, freakin', I don't know
Where this will take me
But I promise, I promise, I promise
'Cause he's enough reason
To give up my freedom
Tell my ex to stop calling, admit that I'm falling
Yeah, he's enough reason
Wake up
Wake up, pretty baby, ooh ooh
Wake up, wake up, pretty baby
Smile bright for the photograph,
Don't show the world your better half;
Too many times, time is wasted
Live your life, you'd better not be faking.
We're soaked, don't bother mediocre
Time shares with life being a loner
Life bomb goes off if you can screw it
Got your chance now, only you can do it
Chorus:
Someday, someday, someday wake up
We are more then who we are,
We are magic, we are stars
Grab the key beyond these bars,
And as far as a mind can see
We are more then who we are;
We are free, free
You've got an empty road ahead
Don't hear the voices in your head;
You're not a loser you're a winner,
You're not spent, so you're not a beginner
Chorus
Someday, someday
I know you'll wake up
We are more then who we are,
We are magic, we are stars.
Grab the key beyond these bars,
And as far as a mind can see,
We are more then who we are;
We are free, free
Everybody tries to push you down
They want to put you on some shelf
No one is gonna hold your hand-
You're gonna have to learn to help yourself
And you will, 'cause you can,
If you don't listen to them.
We are more then who we are;
We are stars, stars...
whoo, whoo, whoo
whoo, whoo, whoo
Chorus
We are magic, we are stars
Grab the key beyond these bars,
And as far as a mind can see
We are more then who we are;
We are free, free
I don't know how I lived my life til now,
I was so frustrated
Full of questions, full of doubt,
Patiently I waited til now, I never knew how.
And it feels so good to finally be me,
I was an open book I never bothered to read
(You keep searchin, searchin)
It feels so good, I'm ready to fly, I'm ready to fall,
I'm ready to try it all.
Cuz it feels so good, to me.
When I know where I should go, is when I most need
guidance.
I turn to you to tell and show me, but all I hear is
silence.
So tell me, It's okay to let go.
And it feels so good to finally be me,
I was an open book I never bothered to read
(You keep searchin, searchin)
It feels so good, I'm ready to fly, I'm ready to fall,
I'm ready to try it all.
Cuz it feels so good, to me.
What is the use in pretending?
Who am I hiding from?
Each day's a new beginning.
(And I'm gonna chase the sun)
And maybe nothing matters, to do what you have to do, I
want to...
And it feels so good to finally be me
I was an open book I never bothered to read
(You keep searchin, searchin)
It feels so good, I'm ready to fly, I'm ready to fall,
I'm ready to try it all.
I wanna believe what I believe
That someday the future holds for me
Something special, yet something unique
Somewhere over the rainbow
Chorus:
I wanna be that girl who has everything
I wanna reach that bell, I'm gonna make it ring
I'm gonna fly like a bird and spread my wings
Come on, come on, come on
Give me everything
I deserve all i can get, you ain't seen no-nothing yet
I'm gonna grab the brassy golden ring
Come on, come on
I want everything
Don't need to dream cuz it's all comin' true
Don't give me a choice cuz there's nothin' to choose
I'm on a mission, I'm not gonna lose
So don't bet against me
I know it's gonna happen
It's a glorious fashion
I'll know when I'm dancin'
In my mansion
Chorus 1x
(I want everything)
Don't try cuz if you try
They'll try to take it from you
Don't try cuz if you try
They'll try to take it from you
I wanna be that girl who has everything
They'll do that show on E sayin' it's good to be me
I'm gonna fly like a bird and spread my wings
Come on, come on
I want everything
(Come on, come on, come on...)
Come on, come on
Give me everything
I deserve all I can get, you aint seen no-nothing yet
I'm gonna grab the brassy golden ring
Come on, come on
I want everything
I know it's gonna happen...
Come on, come on...
It's a glorious fashion
You'll know when I'm dancin'
Come on, come on...
In my mansion
(I want everything)
I deserve all I can get you aint seen no-nothing yet
I'm gonna grab the brassy golden ring
Come on, come on
I misjudged what I meant to you
But now I understand
So won't you understand
It took my lies just to see the truth
So don't throw it all away
Because my one mistake
We have come so far
But it's got me nowhere
Can't you see me standing here?
I keep reaching out
You keep reaching down
This feeling of beyond repair
I can't keep reaching out
If the way you choose to see me now (see me now)
Because the cross I have to bare
I keep falling down your stare
La la la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la la
La la la
Another day you say it's behind us now
But your mood turned around
Before I can turn around
And get lost in the world words are meaningless
Nothing's good enough
Until we can give up best
We have come so far
But it's got us nowhere
Can't you see I'm dyin' here?
I keep reaching out
You keep reaching down
This feeling of beyond repair
I can't keep reaching out
If the way you choose to see me now (see me now)
Because the cross I have to bare
I keep falling down your stare
La la la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la la
La la la
Well, sorry's just such a sorry stein
I can't keep holdin' on
If you keep breaking me through the corse
Of a pass that I can't change
Cuz if I could, I would
We have come so far
But it's got me nowhere
I can't keep reaching out
If the way you choose to see me now (see me now)
Because the cross I have to bare
I keep falling down your stare
La la la la la la la la la
If there's a word of kindness from you, I've never
heard it
Nobody else but me, it's been around this lousy day
until it's perfect
Just you wait and see
Woah, woah oh, I'm gonna break through
I'm gonna have some fun, that's what I'm gonna do
Woah, woah oh, we'll go without you
I'm gonna have some fun, that's what I'm gonna do
La la la la la, la la la la la
Don't bother me, I'm too busy having fun
La la la la la, la la la la la
Don't bother me, I'm too busy
If there's a key to this hidden door, I'm gonna find it
And no one can keep me out of the sun
And when the wind starts to come I'll never mind it
There was never a doubt
Cause I have the power to change my life one day at a
time and hour, by hour,
I'll be fine, I'll be alright
Woah, woah oh, I'm gonna break through
I'm gonna have some fun, that's what I'm gonna do
Woah, woah oh, we'll go without you
I'm gonna have some fun, that's what I'm gonna do
La la la la la, la la la la la
Don't bother me, I'm too busy having fun
La la la la la, la la la la la
Don't bother me, I'm too busy
Cause I have the power to change my life one day at a
time and hour, by hour,
I'll be fine, I'll be alright
Woah, woah oh, I'm gonna break through
I'm gonna have some fun, that's what I'm gonna do
Woah, woah oh, we'll go without you
I'm gonna have some fun, that's what I'm gonna do
If there's a word of kindness from you, I've never
heard it
Nobody else but me, it's been around this lousy day

Just you wait and see
Woah, woah oh, I'm gonna break through

Woah, woah oh, we'll go without you

La la la la la, la la la la la
Don't bother me, I'm too busy having fun
La la la la la, la la la la la
Don't cry baby
It's no big deal

So get used to never seeing me
I see the light shine on the city,
Its morning now,
There couldnt be more beauty in any other town,
Your dancing lights and endless nights,
Everybody knows you never sleep,
Youre still beautiful to me,
They say that if you make it here,
Youll make it anywhere,
Its gotta be the truth
'cos im not going anhwere,
So leave me in New York
New York
mmmmm,
mmmmm,
Lady liberty your my shining star,
I'll meet you in the garden after dark,
And tell me all the stories,
Of how we got outr freedom,
And tell me how America was born,
They say that if you make it here,
Youll make it anywhere,
Its gotta be the truth
I wanna sing, While the ocean sleeps
I wanna feel, what its like to be free
I wanna see, what you see in me
I wanna know, how it feels to believe
Cus I feel lost, somehow Im drifting away
Was almost gone, You brought me to life again
So let me be your lighthouse
And Ill help you find a way out of here
I see the tide is comin
Don't let it take you away from me
Theres no way I'm jumpin over
I know its your love that saved me
Cus I was lost, somehow drifting away
Was almost gone, You brought me to life again
So let me be your lighthouse
And Ill help you find a way out of here
I can see the tide
From a faraway out
But its slowly drifting away from me
Cus I was lost, somehow drifting away
Was almost gone, You brought me to life again
So let me be your lighthouse
And Ill help you find a way out of here
let me be your lighthouse
Today was the best day of my life
I found a road back to remind
Me of you
The world keeps turning over
Wish I could have you closer
Of every moment lived so far
This is my greatest memory
You by my side
I can picture you here with me
And if I tried
This can't be a crime
At least I can hold you in my mind
Looking out my hotel window
I see cars racing by
Everybody's going somewhere
Wish you'd appear tonight
Someone sent me an angel
I saw him in the light
Twelve days lost to dreaming
Before you came to light
This is my greatest memory
You by my side
And i can picture you here with me
And if I tried (If I tried)
This can't be a crime
At least i can hold you in my mind
The world keeps turning over
Wish I could have you closer
Of every moment lived so far
This is my greatest memory
Now your standing here with me
This is my greatest memory
You by my side (you by my side)
This can't be a crime
Verse 1:

(Mmm mmm, Mmm mmm)
Baby can you help me?
I think I've lost my way.
I'm in need of shelter,
Far above this place.
I can see a castle,
High up on this hill.
Could it be my freedom,
Left to my own will?
I thought I, was holding on,
But my heart slipped away.
There's nothing wrong,
That's my song,
I wanna let it play.
I wanna let it play.
This love, needs a home.
Strong, storm by storm.
We'll build a fortress, around us,
Keep us safe from harm.
This love, needs a home.
Strong, storm by storm.
We'll build a fortress,
A place to call our own.
(Mmm mmm, Mmm mmm)
I woke up this morning,
To a battle in the sky.
The only light before me,
Is coming from your eyes.
I feel a little insecure,
Cause I've been wrong before.
If only we can hide away,
I wouldn't have to worry anymore.
I thought I was holding on,
But my heart slipped away.
There's nothing wrong,
That's my song,
I wanna let it play.
I wanna let it play.
This love, needs a home.
Strong, storm by storm.
We'll build a fortress, around us,
Keep us safe from harm.
Baby we're onto something
(What I've been looking for)
I've found a refuge
(you'll protect me from the storm)
Go ahead, show me,
That love can change the weather, for the better.
This love, needs a home.
Strong, storm by storm.
We'll build a fortress, around us,
Keep us safe from harm.
Mmm mmm Mmm mmm...
(Storm by storm)
Mmm mmm Mmm mmm...
(verse one)
This aint the movies baby you cant fool me
Your words are empty and they dont move me no more
I wish it didnt have to be this way
no baby I wont chase you
but soon I will replace you oh no
I wish it didnt have to be this way
(chorus)
You aint no good to me
Your just my poetry for now
And its clear to see your just temporarily around
But still you keep on comin around
Playin the part flippin the script
Fakin your heart comin around playin the part
Flipin the script fakin your heart
(verse two)
Sometimes I think im crazy
Forever lovin you
I took my chances
And look what happened

Whats the point of this drama?
Its takin so much of me
Im better off with out you honest

(chorus)
You aint no good to me
Your just my poetry for now
And its clear to see your just temporarily around
But still you keep on comin around
Playin the part flippin the script

You aint no good to me

And its clear to see your just temporarily around
But still you keep on comin around
Playin the part flippin the script
Fakin your heart comin around playin the part
Love of my life, my soulmate
You're my best friend
Part of me like breathing
Now half of me is left
I don't know anything at all
Who am I to say you love me
I don't know anything at all
And who am I to say you need me
Color me blue I'm lost in you
Don't know why I'm still waiting
Many moons have come and gone
Don't know why I'm still searching
Don't know anything at all
And who am I to say you love me
I don't know anything at all
And who am I to say you need me
Hmmm hmmm mmm
Uhhh oohhh aahhh
Hooo aahhh ohh ohhh
Now you're a song I love to sing
Never thought it'd feel so free
Now I know what's meant to be
And that's okay with me
But who am I to say you love me
And who am I to say you need me
And who am I to say you love me
Mmmm Hmmm
I don't know anything at all
And who am I to say you love me
I don't know anything at all
And who am I to say you need me
I don't know anything at all
I don't know anything at all
I don't know anything at all
Mmmm... Mmm... oohhmmm...
Could it be the world's gone colder?
Baby, I'm a losing soul
The more I try it just gets harder
And my pain is getting old
Somebody said that nothing lasts forever
Just the storm so I've been told
But it seems that when it rains it pours
And you know the rain won't last forever
And you know the storm won't always flow
But if the sun don't shine forever
You gotta let it go
Sometimes my burdens get so heavy
And it seems too hard to bear
Sometimes I feel so empty
And it feels like no one's there
Somebody said that nothing lasts forever
Just the storm so I've been told
But it seems that when it rains it pours
And you know the rain won't last forever
And you know the storm won't always flow
But if the sun don't shine forever
You gotta let it go
And you gotta let it go...
And you gotta let it go...
Love, Love, Love, Love, Love
Giving me
Love, Love, Love

Verse
Love, you're so distracting
Am I overreacting, For feeling this way
And ever, since I met ya, I can't keep my attention
And you are to blame
Chorus
You're love's a permanent distraction, a perfect interaction
A feeling so extreme
I lost my appetite to eat, and I barely get to sleep
Cause you're even in my dreams
And I thought that I was strong but I knew that all along, this was out of my control
So I fell into your hands, and i don't know where we'll land,
I'm just going with the flow
Love, Love, Love, Love, Love
Verse
Somedays, I want to run away
This feels so perfect, it's breaking my heart
Yeah we could, we could stay here happy
Or after summer, be two worlds apart
Chorus
You're love's a permanent distraction, a perfect interaction
A feeling so extreme
I lost my appetite to eat, and I barely get to sleep
Cause you're even in my dreams
And I thought that I was strong but I knew that all along, this was out of my control
So I fell into your hands, and i don't know where we'll land,
I'm just going with the flow
Giving me, Love Love Love, Love Love
