Hey, I know these songs are cheesy, but it's Christmas!
'Mistletoe' is a Christmas song by Justin Bieber and was released last year.
I'm not a 'Belieber', believe me! I just wanted to work with new Christmas songs. The next one is not precisely new. It's a remake of Mariah Carey's classic, 'All I Want For Christmas Is You' Sing along!!!
'I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For' is a song by the Irish rock band U2. It was released in 1987 and it's influenced by Gospel music. You can practice present perfect with it!
I have climbed the highest mountains
I have run through the fields
Only to be with you
Only to be with you.
I have run, I have crawled
I have scaled these city walls
These city walls
Only to be with you.
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for.(x2)
I have kissed honey lips Felt the healing in her fingertips
It burned like fire
This burning desire
I have spoke with the tongue of angels
I have held the hand of a devil
It was warm in the night
I was cold as a stone.
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for (x2)
I believe in the Kingdom Come
Then all the colours will bleed into one
Bleed into one.
But yes, I'm still running.
You broke the bonds
And you loosed the chains
Carried the cross
Of my shame
Of my shame
You know I believed it.
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for. (x4)
