Right now, I'm going to take a short break and let y'all enjoy Christina Perry. I'm going to take a short break, I'm going to take a short break and let y'all enjoy it.

1:30She falls out, she falls in years, I love you for a thousand years. Time stands still, you're in love, she is. I will be free, I will not let anything take away, standing in front of me. Every breath, every hour has time to rest. I stand in front of you, I die every day waiting for you, darling don't be afraid.

2:36Every breath, every hour has time to rest. I stand in front of you, I die every day waiting for you. I love you for a thousand years, I love you for a thousand years. Every breath, every hour has time to rest.

3:36I stand in front of you, I die every day waiting for you. I die every day waiting for you, darling don't be afraid. I love you for a thousand years, I love you for a thousand years. You're alone, I believe, I am finding the time is right for heart to meet. I love you for a thousand years, I love you for a thousand years.

4:40When I was just a little girl, I asked my mother what will I be? Will I be pretty, will I be rich? Here's what she said to me. Taste the rest now, whatever will be will be. The future's not ours to see. Taste the rest now, what will be will be.

5:45When I grew up, I fell out of love. I asked my sweetheart what I say. Will I be pretty, will I be rich today? Here's what I say. Taste the rest now, whatever will be will be. The future's not ours to see. Taste the rest now, what will be will be. When I grew up, I fell out of love. You are my sunshine, my only sunshine. You make me happy when skies are clear.

6:46You'll never know a dear, how much I love you. Please don't take my sunshine away. The other night, dear, as I lay asleep, I dreamed I held you in my arms. When I woke here, I was mistaken. So I hung my head and cried. You are my sunshine, my only sunshine. You make me happy when skies are clear. You'll never know a dear, how much I love you. Please don't take my sunshine away.

8:02Some days I look in the mirror and I think The meanest things, all the meanest things. Some days I'm holding myself worth up by a string. But every day that I don't hire myself away to me, Is a tiny victory. Some days it feels like a wreck of both swinging. So my real cage, my real cage. Some days I'm just a million broken pieces singing. On a stage, I'm a little more broken open,

9:06But a little more free. And that's a tiny victory. And if bad looks could be one, I can keep breaking my sword above the fire. And learn to treasure things. Tiny victories. Tiny victories. Some days given up on myself look so, so easy to do. It's so easy to do. Struggler's stuff won't barely pop in the oven. And the cracks made me feel, but there's light coming through.

10:08And if bad looks could be one, I can keep breaking my sword above the fire. And learn to treasure things. Tiny victories. Tiny victories. Tiny victories. Tiny victories. Every day that I don't hire myself away. Every day that I don't hire myself away to me. It's a tiny victory.

11:08When I thought that my whole world had a day, the colors had faded to gray. Just when I had given up on hoping, the feelings they rushed back again. There's a bright light in the sky tonight, guiding us safely to the shore. Not afraid anymore. All that matters now is where we go from here.

12:10There's an easy life we are for today. Find out all we are is all that matters. Remember all you forgot say. The joy and sadness of things. Refuse to take a life for granted. My choice to celebrate our life brings. There's a bright light in the sky tonight. guiding us safely to the shore. Not afraid anymore. All that matters now is where we go from here. There's an easy life we are for today.

13:15Find out all we are is all that matters. There's a bright light in the sky tonight, guiding us safely to the shore. Not afraid anymore. All that matters now is where we go from here. There's an easy life we are for today. Find out all we are is all that matters.
